2018 The biggest dark horse in Taiwan's local film "Who fell in love with him first" focused on the emotional state of the marginalized in society and moved countless audiences.
screenwriter Lu Shiyuan can always start from topics and perspectives that everyone has overlooked, such as stories in the funeral industry ("Outbound Office"), or the transformation of problematic students ("Hands of Paper Cranes"), write down each The moving story behind a phenomenon that rarely receives attention.
This year, she wrote a high-scoring series, based on a social murder news, to describe the humanity story behind it. The drama
is starred by Alyssa Chia:
"The Distance Between Us and Evil"
​​At present, this drama can only be regarded as an unpopular work. There are only more than 1,000 people rated on Douban, but among these more than 1,000 people, 97% of the audience gave a four-star or more praise, with a score of 9.4!
The play revolves around a vicious random murder case. The suspect Li Xiaoming rushed into the theater and shot the crowd, causing a tragedy of 9 deaths and 21 injuries.
The case shocked the whole Taiwan and caused anger. Li Xiaoming's defense lawyer Wang She hopes to find out the motive of Li Xiaoming's crime to avoid such vicious incidents from happening again.
However, Li Xiaoming never cooperated with the psychiatric appraisal, and his family was also missing, unable to explore the truth behind it. The court could only rule that Li Xiaoming had committed the crime and the death penalty was determined.
​​Wang She appealed actively, hoping to buy more time to clarify the context behind the Li Xiaoming incident, but because of this, he angered the families of the victims and was humiliated by dung spilling.
This is about the helplessness behind human rights lawyers, fighting for human rights for criminals, facing legal loopholes, maintaining social order, and preventing crimes, but they often fail to understand them.
As the families of the victims, they lost their families because of this tragedy, their lives have undergone earth-shaking changes, and they have suffered huge blows, such as Song Qiaoan played by Jia Jingwen.
Song Qiaoan, as a senior news media person, is vigorous and resolute on the radio, insisting on his ethics and principles as a news person, showing no mercy to everyone, and driving away many subordinates because of his cold-blooded personality.
But she was not like that two years ago. The theater murder case took her son away. From then on, she fell into discomfort, quarreled frequently with her husband, and gradually became ill with her daughter. She laughed at herself:
"Who else can I keep? My husband and my son can’t keep it. "
are living in the shadow of the case at the same time, as are the suspect’s family members. They did not do anything wrong, but they have to bear the accusations of infamy and public opinion. Li Xiaoming’s sister Li Xiaowen is also responsible for this. He was renamed Li Dazhi and left his hometown.
Li Dazhi, like Song Qiaoan, is a passionate person with a passion for the news industry. He wants to use his tiny power to change the blind pursuit of ratings in the news industry and let the audience see the whole world.
Li Dazhi is diligent, smart and witty. In just two months he was promoted from an intern to an editor, breaking the company record. Song Qiaoan was also quite satisfied with her. When
thought that he could make a big splash in the news industry, Li Dazhi accidentally learned that Song Qiaoan's son was also one of Li Xiaoming's evil spirits. She was afraid to face it, and quickly submitted her resignation, decisively giving up her dream.
This play shows the vicious impact of the case from these tripartite perspectives, and appeals to the public to pay attention to the social significance behind it.
We have seen such cases often only condemn the suspects, focusing on the surface of the case, and seldom pay attention to the cause and impact behind it, and the psychological harm of related personnel.
There are only a few character images in this play, and a few details are used to express the pain points of the characters. Song Qiaoan, the family member of the
victim, devotes himself to work after being hit hard, and is drifting away from her daughter, even forgetting her daughter’s birthday.
Li Dazhi, the family member of the suspect, was forced to move with his parents. He had to wear a mask when going out and cover his face with long hair. Until the kind landlord gave her a headband to encourage her, he faced the sun again.
seems to be from two camps, but they have suffered the same torture, and the most neutral third-party lawyers are also facing the test of humanity.
Wang She has always tried to restore the cause behind the case with a calm attitude and an absolute justice angle, and try his best to make up and prevent it.
​​but when the damage dropsCan he remain calm and calm when he is on him? In the second episode of
, he quickly pushed the lawyer from the altar into the world, allowing him to experience the pain of his daughter's kidnapping. When he became a victim, humanity really began to experience the test.

There is no absolute distinction between good and evil in a case. The reason for the formation of a criminal may be family, social, etc. The best way to solve the problem is not only to impose legal sanctions on the criminal.
needs to reflect on the social significance of the case to better prevent the same tragedy from happening again. There is also a pair of siblings in
, which are the best examples of crime prevention.

sneaked into the kindergarten in order to make a movie and was regarded as a criminal kidnapping and kidnapping children. It was the case in which the daughter of lawyer Wang She was kidnapped.
is just a misunderstanding this time, but with Ying Sicong's mental state, it is difficult to guarantee that it will harm society next time. Therefore, Ying Sicong has to accompany his younger brother out of the predicament. This shows "prevention" for the younger brother.
, whether it is depth or breadth, the script is full of tension, covering multiple angles and levels, with rational elaboration and emotional expression.
Taiwanese dramas have grown up to dare to face social topics and have reached new heights. The vitality of the subject matter has made mainland audiences envious.
In fact, in the modern society with developed network media, the most indispensable is such themes. Some are ready-made cases and topics. The stories behind so many social news are worth digging. Mainland dramas should not be filming children's love and parents.
