friends are equal

I just want to talk about why Yuan Rui and Dong Su turned against each other and Shan Tai was always so close. Not between Won-seo and Dong-suk, although their life trajectories are more similar. Equality is the cornerstone of the possibility of friendship between people, if we are both equal, we can be friends with our parents, with our siblings, even if they are our relatives, and this is not contradiction.
At the beginning of the movie, there is a detail that Yuan Rui, Shan Tai, and Dong Su all like Suzhen. During the party, Yuan Rui directly pushed Su Zhen to Shan Tai. Dong Su was very angry about this and asked Yuan Rui why he did that. Dong Su replied that Shan Tai was his friend, and Dong Su roared: What am I, am I your servant? Yuan Rui just left a few words coldly: You want to die! The sharpness in his eyes is no different from when he reprimands a subordinate.
Yuan Rui said that he was confused later, maybe what he was confused about was whether he and Dong Su were friends? If they were friends, how could they become like that. Friends, long and close companions; but once close they are now enemies. Yuan Rui couldn't figure out this question clearly, but he felt that they were friends, so he went to persuade Dong Su to leave. Dong Su was probably also confused by the current situation. When he asked Yuan Rui to leave, Yuan Rui unexpectedly agreed. He suddenly felt that they should still be friends, and he decided to leave by himself. This could have had a good ending, and the director could handle the ending of the movie as two people running away together. On the beach in Hawaii, Dongsu, with a cool face, put both hands in his trouser pockets and kicked Yuan Rui, who was lying on the beach and sunbathing, on the ass. However, this is tantamount to affirming that the relationship between Yuan Rui and Dong Su is a friend, when in fact they are not. Yuan Rui may have never thought of making Dong Su a subordinate, but when he automatically puts himself in the position of the boss, Dong Su who is with him will naturally become a subordinate. This long-sown root is doomed. Their relationship was unequal from the very beginning. Instead, Shan Tai, a good student, turned their relationship into a lifelong friend because he was different from Yuan Rui. Dong-su is an extremely sensitive person, and the tragedy actually happened when he didn't want to be Won-seo's subordinate anymore.
Friend is a word to be cherished. We have many acquaintances in our life. Some of us respect them, and we automatically put ourselves below in our interactions, making them our boss, idol or teacher; some are because we are more capable than They are strong, and they automatically put themselves at the top in their interactions, making the other party a seeker, a subordinate, or a student. When we look at our lives, we find that there are many people we have friends with, but there are very few real friends at that time. In fact, it is our own mentality that destroys the equal platform in the process of communication.
