What magic power is there to make a crowd of viewers so fascinated by it?
Today, the manuscript will have a good chat with everyone-
two-way crossing, suspense reversal
Before the chat, we will simply sort out the storyline of "I want to see you" as usual.
In terms of genre, "Want to See You" is actually a drama that is difficult to define. The
play incorporates various elements including love, fantasy, travel, youth, and suspense. The content of
is rich, but it is not messy at all. The story of
starts from a typical romantic drama mode-
Huang Yuxuan, a 27-year-old white-collar worker, has been immersed in pain because of the departure of her boyfriend Wang Quansheng.
From 2011 to 2017 when Wang Quansheng disappeared due to an air crash, the two have been in love for a total of 6 years.
In 6 years, the two have spent countless unforgettable happy times together.
In the two years since Wang Chuansheng lost, Huang Yuxuan always fell into a trance because he missed too much.
She goes to work, works, eats, and rests as usual, and she looks like she's okay.
is only known to those who really know her. In fact, at every moment, she is thinking back and repeating the moments when the two were in love.
Some conventional love tear gas scenes are interspersed in the play from time to time through flashbacks and reversals.
Here, Huang Yuxuan often shook her mind and met another strange man who looked like Wang Chuansheng on different occasions. After
, because of a mysterious photo, the plot began to turn to the unknown.
Huang Yuxuan uploaded Wang Quansheng's photo to the company's app "Finding Another Self in the World".
As a result, something magical happened.
A photo uploaded on the Internet in 2010 caught her attention. In the photo of
, Wang Quansheng took a photo with a girl who looked exactly like her.
After the incident, after investigation, Huang Yuxuan discovered that this photo was taken in 1999. The couple in the photo was neither Wang Chuansheng nor herself.
because that year, they were less than ten years old.
At the same time, Huang Yuxuan also discovered that the girl in the photo, originally named Chen Yunru, died in 1999. The investigation of
quickly fell into a dead end.
However, just when everything had no clue, a bizarre soul crossing brought a new turn for the plot.
27-year-old Huang Yuxuan became 17-year-old Chen Yunru through her soul wear, and met 17-year-old Li Ziwei.
Through the follow-up plot, we were pleasantly surprised to find-
It turns out that the person Huang Yuxuan really fell in love with has always been Li Ziwei.
It turns out that this is not a story of a heroine, but a story of a two-way journey between the hero and the hero.
The picture below is clearer and clearer ↓
When the episodes of sometimes sweet love and sometimes suspenseful brain-burning come out, the curtain officially kicked off.

looks like an exquisite Mobius ring, forming a closed loop of time and space. The
Mobius ring is a curved surface with only one face after a special twist.
No matter where you start to move on this surface, you can walk back to your original starting point without changing the direction.
As early as the first few episodes, the plot has already laid the groundwork. In the proposal ring that Wang Quansheng gave to Huang Yuxuan, this paragraph was carved:
"Only if you asked to see me, our meeting would be meaningful to me" (Only when you want to see me, our meeting is meaningful).

The two characters have the same skin, but have completely different souls.
This is the most unique aspect of "Want to See You".
Huang Yuxuan, Chen Yunru, Li Ziwei and Wang Quansheng, who look exactly the same, are actually people from two worlds.
Huang Yuxuan and Li Ziwei are cheerful and lively, while Chen Yunru and Wang Chuansheng are silent. The bipolar character of
has created a different life for them.
Huang Yuxuan and Li Ziwei are optimistic A-sides. Chen Yunru and Wang Quansheng are pessimistic B-sides. The
plot is drawing to a close, and Chen Yunru's soul returns to the body. Although she knows that Li Ziwei likes Huang Yuxuan, she still unwillingly pretend to be Huang Yuxuan, trying to maintain the liking of others for her.
Through hard work, Chen Yunru, who pretended to be Huang Yuxuan, finally lied to a kiss from Li Ziwei.
Regarding Chen Yunru’s “darkening” behavior, the audience who followed Chen Yunru quickly divided into two camps: the
party was indignant and condemned Chen Yunru for being too scheming and wanted to send a blade to the screenwriter;
felt the same, and sympathized with Chen Yunru. Empathy cannot be triggered from her love.

The clumsy Chen Yunru, unable to make Li Ziwei fall in love with herself, can only hope that "one day I can become the kind of girl you will like, and then you can like me like I like you."
Only by understanding the sorrows of Chen Yunru and Wang Quansheng can we understand the deep inside of "Want to See You".
In addition to the love and suspense elements, the screenwriter Lin Xinhui wants to explore a deeper level, which is actually the core issue of teenagers’ self-identity.
she said, “Every one of us easily ignores where others are injured. Because they are teenagers, they think it’s no big deal for them to be so young. But in fact, this problem is very serious.”

Through the exploration of the two "invisible characters" Chen Yunru and Wang Quansheng, "Want to See You" presents a complex situation of one and two sides:
wraps the reality with tenderness, let us be moved by the brave and fearless attitude of Li Ziwei and Huang Yuxuan ; While digging into the darkness with care, let us have more understanding and reflection on Wang Chuansheng and Chen Yunru.

Whether it is the male protagonist Xu Guanghan, or the female protagonist Ke Jiayan, they have contributed extremely wonderful performances in the play.
With this drama, the 29-year-old Xu Guanghan became a national idol.
Many audiences were shocked by his performance, thinking that he played two roles in four states: the young and frivolous Li Ziwei, the middle-aged Li Ziwei who moved forward with weight, and the reticent and depressed Wang QuanSheng, Li Ziwei's temperament changed drastically after wearing the soul.

good works will not be buried.
