I never expected that this May would be cured by a Korean TV drama that was mourning.
16 episodes of Korean drama "My Uncle", just look at the title, originally thought it was Mary Su’s idol drama, but the Douban score is as high as 9.4, the quality of this drama is evident.
To put it simply, this Korean drama mainly tells the story of a girl in her 20s and a man in her 40s who are in the same company, comforting each other and healing each other in the face of the real and cruel life.
So, how sad is this story?
01 "Reality is hell"
The heroine of the story Li Zhian (played by Li Zhien), 22 years old, should be the age of youth and vitality. But she had an expression of indifference and relentlessness all day long. As a company dispatched employee (non-regular employee), there are no friends or colleagues in the company willing to talk to her.
Actually, this is because she is a "granddaughter" . There is no father or mother in the family, and she lives with her deaf-mute and paralyzed grandma. And the mother who abandoned her since she was a child, owed a huge loan shark to her to pay off.
What is even more tragic is that grandma lives in a nursing home and has been called for payment many times. She is unable to repay the expenses, so she has to take advantage of the high weather and the high temperature to push her bed and grandma away. After stealing grandma back home, she didn't forget to feed her her favorite persimmon, but she made two bags of coffee every night to satisfy her hunger. The debt collection of
usury also forced her to work hard to earn money from junior high school, and do multiple odd jobs a day. Drink company coffee to satisfy your hunger, wash dishes and dishes at the restaurant where you work, steal leftovers, and take them back for dinner. In order to save electricity and avoid debt, the lights are not turned on. In the cold winter, it is always a single suit and a pair of single shoes without socks.
But this debt seems to never be paid off. I work hard every day when I come home, and in the real dark shabby house, I get beaten and kicked from time to time by the creditor. The old injury is not healed, and the new injury is covered. A life like
makes people feel desperate to think about it?
, the male protagonist Park Dongxun (played by Lee Sun Kyun), is the minister of the same company. He is in his 40s and reaches middle age with a monthly income of 5 or 6 million won (about 30,000 yuan). There is another beautiful and capable person. Wife, lovely son, such a life, even his own brothers are envious.
But in fact, he was gloomy and lived a little unhappy.
In his native family, he is the pillar of high hopes. Among the three brothers, the eldest brother and younger brother were both unemployed at home and cheated on the old mother at home. Therefore, the family basically relied on him to make a living.
In his career, although he is skilled in business and has a sense of responsibility, because he has no intention of dealing with the political struggle in the office, his former junior has become his own leader. When he sees him every day, he has to bow his head and bow to him. The only son of
is studying abroad, and he has little spiritual communication with his wife who is a lawyer every day.
such a depressing life, he just endured silently.
02 Two poor people healed each other and redeemed each other
. An accident, he was involved in political battles in the office, was framed by others, and took bribes.
In fact, when the innocent uncle received the bribe, he was panicked and didn't know how to deal with it, so he temporarily put the envelope containing the money in his office drawer.
all this letThe heroine Li Zhian who sits on the side has a panoramic view. While off work, the hostess stole the money to repay the loan shark under the cover of grandpa cleaner. Because she expected that even if the bribe was found lost, no one would dare to call the police.
But later, when she learned that the male protagonist was under investigation, she was kind enough to secretly put the money back and rescued the male protagonist.
Since then, the male protagonist and the female protagonist have more intersections.
Slowly, the male protagonist discovers the female protagonist’s life experience, and instead gives birth to a pity for her (not the love of love).
In her life, she helped her carry her grandma up and down the steps, and handled her grandma's free admission to a government sanatorium. In the company, treat her with the same respect as a formal employee.

But at the same time, the heroine is also pitiful, and the hero works diligently, but he is always bullied by the younger leader. What's even more annoying is that his wife cheated on the leader of the younger brother he hated the most. But for the harmony of the family and the happiness of his family, he chose to forbear and suppress himself silently.
So, at this time, Li Zhian became the guardian of the uncle. Secretly, taking the risk, with his own efforts, the uncle got rid of the obstacles that hindered his career promotion.
After realizing the truth of the matter, he finally dared to face his cowardice, began to resist, and finally got the life he wanted most.

But at the root, they are just two people who are desperate for life, but they see compassion and intolerance in each other's lives, and they also draw the strength and courage to move forward.
03 Everyone in life is moving forward with weight
. Li Zhian in the drama has a homicidal record (because he was beaten by loan sharks for excessive defense, manslaughter, convicted of not guilty), debt pressure and acquittal. Grandma, forcing her to be busy with her livelihood.
Even at a young age, she touched the bottom of life and despair prematurely, and chose to resist the outside world with an indifferent attitude. But still mourning, while struggling, working hard. In the dark and windowless rental house, when the grandma who had stayed for a day asked to see the moon outside, she was exhausted after a day of work. She still used the supermarket shopping cart to push her grandma out to see the moon.
who don't want to live a chic and wanton life, but most people move forward with weight. The uncle in
is also the same. Even though he is exhausted at work, he will still mop and wash the floor before his wife goes home to create a clean and comfortable home for his wife; treat his parents and elder brothers even if his own The balance of the bank card is not large, but it will still pay the mother’s living expenses on time.The brother of the source of income. In order to live, I also kneeled to others.
and the two brothers of the uncle, obviously all worked hard to get admitted to a prestigious university! However, a business failed and owed debts. A director's career encountered Waterloo. He had nothing to do and was at home. He became the loser in the eyes of his mother and friends.
But what if life is over? As long as you are still alive, there is a way to continue living.
, who used to be so brilliant, chose to do the job of a cleaner that was despised by others. They got up every day before dawn to clean the steps in the building, and deal with the nauseous vomit of others in the stairwell when they were drunk. Even to keep his job, the eldest brother knelt down and apologized to a drunkard.
We are now, so why not? For life,
had to choose to clenched his teeth. Han Chuang studied hard for more than ten years, but the job he ended up looking for was not satisfactory. After working, thinking of the rent to be paid and relatives at home, I was wronged and did not dare to resist, so I could only choose to swallow and swallow my teeth.

paid his salary and called his family as soon as possible, leaving only a small part for himself. But he smiled stubbornly and told his parents that everything was fine outside of him, eating well, sleeping well, everything was fine.
Actually, my heart is depressed and sad. The work pressure is so heavy that I suffer from insomnia, my hair falls a lot, and my skin starts to grow acne and rough.
work overtime every day to fall asleep, get up early, and start catching the bus and the subway before breakfast, but life seems to be still in place.
Obviously I have worked very hard, why is life still the same, work is still the same, but the people around you who were not as good as you, or even hated, are better than yourself?
Unwillingness and grievances rushed to my heart, depressed, and slowly lost confidence in myself and enthusiasm for life.
So, I often ask myself, what has supported me to the present?
04 In fact, you and I are all happy
Sometimes, in a numb and forbearing life, we persevere and persevere, as if we have lost the ability to perceive happiness, become self-remoral, can't see ourselves, can't see the hope of life .
As everyone knows, in fact, you and I are both happy.
It’s just that we forget that when we look up at other people’s lives and have feelings of envy and jealousy, we also have to look down. There are also unbearable and intolerable things in their lives that you can’t see; when we look down on others’ lives, we have compassion When you have a poor relationship, you should also look up. Such a life also has strength and tenacity that you can't reach.
When Li Zhian in the play was initially kindly helped by her uncle, her grandmother said to her, "He is a good person." And Li Zhian said to her grandma in sign language, "It's easy for rich people to be good people."
zz3 In her eyes, the life of the uncle is the life of the rich, so there is no suffering, so you can be a good person.
and later, she eavesdropped on the uncle's cell phone and tracked his life for a period of time. After seeing the unbearable and grievances hidden behind the uncle's enviable life, she began to feel compassion and pity for him.
Similarly, for the uncle, when he learned of Li Zhian's life experience, he had infinite love and protection for her. However, when he saw Li Zhian in such a desperate predicament, he still had a stronger heart than himself, insisting and living like this all the time. Even more unexpectedly, such a person at the bottom of his life would have pity for himself. He deeply felt that he was not as young as Li Zhian, "I didn't live to understand, I lost."
The monk said, "Then start to win now!"
05 Accept yourself and embrace happiness
In this world, the most powerful people are not those who claim to be the most powerful, on the contrary. Those who can live in peace with unfortunate predicaments are those who face the tragic and strong hearts, and finally still accumulate the strength to face them.
(1) First of all, the first step to change the status quo is not to escape, but to accept oneself.
accept your own ordinary, accept your own failure. When you have the courage to accept all this, there will no longer be obstacles in this world that can stop you from making changes.
When the uncle no longer escapes the provocations from life and work, and finally has the courage to face it all, his dead life seems to come back to life.
accepted and released himself, and he realized that he had the ability to get rid of this complicated political struggle, this exhausted work life, and win back his own dignity.
At the end, he chose to start again, stand on his own, lead the team, and break out of a world alone outside, and finally succeeded.
(2) Secondly, discover the happiness hidden in life.
Although work and life are not satisfactory, but compared with the suffering Li Zhian, in fact, besides me, there is a mother who loves me, brothers who love me, and a group of loyal friends. In life, there are actually many things worthy of happiness and happiness!
also for Li Zhian, under the influence of her uncle, she finally opened up and began to accept the kindness from people around her, and expressed "how much I wish I was born in this community", and life began to become clear.
What about us outside the show? Why not be in a loving world, but blinded my eyes and closed my senses.
are obviously kind and smart people, but they are immersed in their own world, complaining and pitying themselves, having love around them without knowing it.
Life is really no big deal, everything is over, looking back, in fact, it really doesn’t matter.
Don't forget the responsibilities you bear, but don't forget the warmth and strength that people around you give you without hesitation!
The most powerful weapon of mankind is not nuclear weapons, but the courage of love.
May you have the ability to love and be loved, and that your lover can also love yourself. Can give generously and have peace of accepting kindness.
