"Like a Butterfly" can be called the best Korean drama in the first half of the year. From the start of 8.2 to the end of the broadcast, it has a score of 9.4. It can be seen that this drama is really good!
Although the story is generally old-fashioned and the ending can be predicted in advance, it does not prevent this drama from being touching and heart-warming.
In fact, when I first saw this drama, because I saw it was produced by Netflix, and the male protagonist in this drama is also the male protagonist in "Sweet Home", I was going to look at these two points, but I didn't expect the end Being fanned by the grandfather in the play really touched my tears in every episode.
I remember that the last time I was seen crying was "Sorry I Love You", I was moved by the love between Uncle and Eun Chae, and I swore at that time how could I be seen crying by a love story, but I didn't expect to be slapped in the face.
As a result, this time, I was also thinking about how a 70-year-old man with a dream could show me how to learn ballet, but I didn't expect to be slapped in the face again.
while being healed by the show also misses those who will never be seen again.
The first half of this drama is quite relaxed and happy, watching the road of dream-chasing ballet by grandfather Shen De.
When a 70-year-old grandpa suddenly said that he wanted to learn ballet, what would you think the first time?
Do you think this old man is joking? Or is he just planning to find some post-retirement hobby? Maybe you will get tired after a few days. After all, how can a 70-year-old body dance ballet?
When the grandfather said "I want to dance ballet", the effect at this time is similar to "I want to play basketball" by Mitsui (the character in the slam dunk).
html The 270-year-old grandfather must have had a lot of courage when he said this, because it is really scary to get old, and all kinds of power are incapable. If you can't fulfill the wishes of your youth, you can only leave with a lifetime of regrets, so It's never too late to have the courage to start.
When someone asked him, "Why do you want to dance ballet?"
Grandpa replied, "I have never done what I want to do, to make a living, to take care of my wife and children, I don't even think about it. Dare to think about it, I thought that life was taken for granted, and now I plan to do what I want to do with ."
When I was in school, I couldn't do what I wanted to do because I didn't make money by myself. When I entered the society, I turned into a social animal and couldn't do what I wanted to do in order to live. When I was a little older, I couldn't be myself because of my children. want to do.
Dang Cailu questioned why grandpa didn't learn ballet earlier. What he didn't know was that because children are grandpa's life , many realities are not as simple as imagined, how difficult it is to raise a child, it is estimated that only Only as a parent can really appreciate it.
Grandpa was found out by his family that he was studying ballet, but his children did not agree with him, thinking it was a shameful thing. Shen Dechu didn't expect that his children would have such a big reaction, so he didn't plan to study if he wanted to put on the ballet costume for the last time.
It was very unfortunate that the eldest son saw it and asked him, "What's so great about ballet? Is that kind of thing more important than children?" When he came out, he said bluntly: "He works hard day and night to support his wife and children. You still say such things?" When I really want to cry.
When grandpa became seriously ill for the first time, he didn't recognize everyone on the street. In order to evoke grandpa's memory , Cailu danced on the roadside like a butterfly.
"I don't know why, after I saw the ballet danced by the boy, I regained my memory"
"If the dance can restore your memory, I would like to keep dancing" After my grandfather was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease, he began to record himself every day with a pen.
Looking at the photos in the mobile phone, the bits and pieces left in life, maybe from now on, maybe life is like rewinding, starting from a recent beginning, and maybe even forgetting myself in the end.
"It is clear that the weather is so good, is sunny and sunny, , but why am I..."
Grandpa said helplessly: "Mom, what should I do?" Your own parents, who have not been children before, your father is also someone's son.
When I was most helpless in my life, I could still think of my parents, but it was just a sentence of mother and father, but it revealed the most helpless reality in life.
For the arrangement of the ending, I really thank the screenwriter for arranging a beautiful ending like a fairy tale, so that the scary things in it are not so scary, so whether Grandpa remembers Cailu or not, his body can instinctively The original reaction to ballet, as if this is the code between Grandpa and Cai Lu, and with this code, it seems that Grandpa did not completely forget Cai Lu and forget everyone.
Grandpa and Cailu heal each other and believe in each other.
I don't think Cailu thought that one day he would become a very important person in Grandpa's memory, forgetting everyone but not wanting to forget him.
At the airport, grandpa caught up with Cailu who was about to go abroad, crying and hugging Cailu and saying I don't want to forget Cailu, Cailu burst into tears in an instant, and the two really became part of each other's dreams .
"You have to work hard, because there is always a light on for you"
There are always people who support your efforts, so don't be afraid, keep doing what you want to do, because there are always people behind you you.
A netizen said that the grandfather who had Alzheimer's used the last memory to fulfill his dream and also cured the whole drama.
"Li Cailu, a ballet genius who is indifferent to everything, has always been ashamed of his son's father because of corporal punishment, a selfish ballet teacher who only has himself in his heart, Hao Fan who gave up his football dream and resented others, and became a homeless person because he couldn't save the patient. The youngest son, Shengguan, the eldest son, Shengshan, who only knows how to make money, and the granddaughter whose life has always been dominated by his father...”
Every time I see my grandfather going to class, I will feel that everyone is living with desire.
Those people with hope and courage look at the world, just like grandpa carrying a small bag every day to go to ballet class as usual, and inadvertently say:
"Holy officer, this world is beautiful"
Indeed, this world It's so beautiful. I sigh every day because I don't have enough time. Every day I want to take a look at the world and experience the world more, because the world is so beautiful! In the last episode of
, one of the most moving scenes is the pas de deux between Cailu and grandpa, Cailu's firm belief and grandpa's belief.
When grandpa held Cailu's outstretched hand, at that moment, the two of them completed the world's most moving Swan Lake .
Although grandpa may forget the time, place, hard work, and happiness, but grandpa will not forget that he is an ballet dancer, a person with dreams.
is like the end of this play, he has forgotten everyone's grandfather, every day he asks about the snow, because in his memory, there is a person who will appear on a snowy day, and that person once danced for him on a snowy day Ballet, and when Grandpa sees that person, he remembers that he was a ballet dancer.
Although this drama is niche after all, it is really beautiful, warm and healing.
