If there is a time machine

"At the end of the play, I saw empty seats in the room and the lights turned on. This story seems to be real and illusory." Listening to Mayday's "Time Machine", I suddenly felt heartache. If there is a time machine...
those blue sky and white clouds, those white flowers of reeds fluttering in the wind, those bright and gleaming calm lakes always sway and overflow in memory. Then there was a girl in bright clothes smiling, her eyes pure. Black hair in the wind, clasped hands.
Beautiful picture. It is difficult for me to imagine that this is a horror film, with a warm tone that reminds more of its warmth.
Remembering Qianghua’s imagination, her stepmother said to her: "Do you know what the most terrible thing is? You don't want to remember one thing, you want to erase it, but you can't do it!" Qianghua couldn't do it. Forgive me for splitting into two people during my spiritual torture, and staged a solo dance in my spiritual world in a house in the suburbs. She is a knight, the incarnation of a protector; she is also a witch, a queer. Qianghua drew out the cocoon of Honglian with a silk of imagination, wrapped her in her arms, and took good care of her, but bound herself together. Can't get out of the quagmire of regret, Rose fell into hysteria.
What impressed her most was the suddenly cheerful scene: Qianghua's father shook her shoulder and told her that Guren was dead. At that time, watching Qianghua's astonishment and listening to the desperate screams of Honglian's tears, which did not exist, really felt heartache. What kind of remorse would be so longing for the obliteration of memory? What kind of heartache can be painful enough to forget such a fact, to use oneself as a medium to let the red lotus continue to exist in the world, even if it is only in imagination?
"The sunshine, shattered in the familiar scene, so quiet. It's not easy to remember how many past events a person can recite. Who laughs, who has warm palms, I am fascinated." If there is a time machine, maybe something should happen. It won't happen. Then Qianghua can hold Honglian's hand and feel her warm palm; Qianghua can sleep with Honglian and tell her that she is not afraid of her sister's presence, and her sister will always be with you. Not only, not just imagination.
Towards the end, reproduce the scene at that time. Guren struggled under the weight of the closet, the cruel stepmother left, and Qianghua was arguing with her stepmother in the corridor. Time passed by every minute. After the stepmother said viciously to Qiang Hua, "You will regret it one day," Guren shed the last tear in another room. She called her sister's name, but Qianghua didn't hear her. After the rose walked out of the house, he noticed something was wrong, and the moment of turning back was eternal, and the sunshine was frozen.
"I'm sorry, I'm so sad, I want to do it all over again. Once again, I won't think about the ending like this. I'm so sorry, so sad, who put me back. I'm willing to give everything to change a time machine." Can't hear, can't hear. In her imagination, Qianghua held the red lotus who was abused by her stepmother, and cried and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't hear it! I'm sorry, I didn't hear it!" Maybe, this is the voice from the bottom of her heart! It is always oneself that cannot be forgiven.
In the ending, after seeing the resentful spirit of Gulian, the stepmother doesn't know what will end. However, in another scene, Qianghua lying in the hospital smiled, calling her sister's name, and smiled contentedly.
The subtitles are out. Qianghua was wearing that red dress, sitting alone on the pier, very quiet and tender.

    Isn't it known as the most terrifying Korean movie? It's still so literary...

    Four stars are given to such a beautiful picture. It's really not easy for Wen Geunying to split into three people. The director has worked hard to make us fall into the mist. The slow progress also left a deep impression on the horrible scenes, but the true story underneath seemed so thin. The sister who died unjustly is a tragedy. She ran into an unreliable mother. She was startled by suicide in the cabinet, and then beaten to death to save her.
