"In a long life, separation and love are not necessarily contrary to each other." Under this eternal topic of reunion and separation, China's first marriage documentary observation reality show " Goodbye Love " created by Mango TV ushered in its second season. "What should we do in the midst of marriage?" The answer given by "Goodbye Love 2" is: "No one should be an isolated island."
On November 1, "Goodbye Love" premiered in the second season, recording the transformation and growth of three couples facing a marriage crisis in the journey through travel documentary, observing emotional changes, discussing marriage issues, and insight into social emotions from the perspective of bystanders. Judging from the premiere, the new marriage sample brings new thinking - three pairs of guests are facing real marriage and real problems such as "divorce of elderly people", "death problems", "flash marriage and pregnancy", and "communication in other places". From 30 to 60, couples of different age groups present completely different emotional feelings and ways of dealing with problems. The difference between specific emotional samples also makes the program more observant and practical.
For example, Song Ningfeng and Zhang Wanting entered the marriage without careful consideration, which accelerated the outbreak of emotional deposition between the two parties. During this journey, both of them are eager to find an answer for this unconsistent marriage. For example, Su Shiding and Lu Ge have very good memories, but their long-term state of being away from home forced them to fall into a vicious cycle of ineffective communication and intensified conflicts; in the ordering of career and love, both of them have given priority to career, and the inability to balance career and love and the inability to meet each other's emotional needs in time have become the key issue for them to gradually move away. The program projects reality through appearances, displays the most realistic marital status and the most essential problems, and faces common problems that are common in modern marriages. What triggered more discussion is that "Goodbye Love 2" captures the emotional needs of the elderly for the first time, trying to solve the marriage dilemma of the elderly in the current society. Chen Meiling and Ai Wei from Hong Kong, China have known each other for 31 years. In addition to love and understanding, their marriage also faces responsibilities and life and death. As Associate Professor , Fudan University Department of Sociology, Shen Yifei said in the program: "No matter which age group has emotional needs, the problems that arise in the marriage of the elderly are very worthy of attention. Its social significance is no less than that of the marriage conflicts of young people." "Goodbye Love 2" closely follows social reality, fills the gap in the lack of emotional variety shows, and arouses resonance among audiences of more age groups and empathizes with .
In terms of the program mode, "Goodbye Love 2" continues the "reality show + observation room". The observation team interprets the whole picture of three types of marriage relationships from the third perspective, sorts out the contradictions through emotional experience and professional theories, concreteizes and theorizes abstract emotions, and finds the fundamental problem. While analyzing marriage and emotional issues, the program gives the audience great emotional participation. During the process of watching the program, it applies situational examination to oneself, feels the ups and downs and directions of the characters' emotions, and immersively shapes the examination of emotional cognition and values.
"Goodbye Love 2" takes "divorce" as its core theme. It not only aims the camera at the fierce quarrels and emotional venting between husband and wife, but also records the moments of warmth and love, so as to heal the fear or rejection of marriage by contemporary people. Just as the program presents "love and distinction are not contrary to each other", the program also shows the form of marriage that is integrated and multi-faceted. To a certain extent, the program is a "desensitization experiment" of the perception of divorce, and it is also a "disenchantment" of marriages that are feared by contemporary people. The program faces deeper, more sharp and more extreme marriage problems from a realistic standpoint, builds a more positive communication model and a healthier gender relationship in open discussions, and assumes the social responsibility of conveying positive marriage values.
