can't help but look forward to it. When will we wait for our own "1988"? The output of domestic youth dramas is not low, but it is missing such a healing work that directly reaches people's hearts.
until I met "When You Were Young".
This drama is very strange, it is obviously a crew with no budget, and there is no big traffic celebrity, but interprets the little happiness, little sadness, and little emotion of the youth into a still water, which inadvertently penetrates into my heart.
is no accident, my Xiaohongshu, Douyin , Douban homepage all have fan recommendations about this drama.
Chenghai, Xiaoran, Xiangnan, Ruige, every audience saw their youthful self in the story.
When watching the drama, Youku danmaku was also very active, and they all sighed that "it's not a loss to become a shareholder", but I haven't watched it or I didn't like it.

"When You Were Young" is just a low-cost account-sharing drama, why can it get so many good reviews?
01
Family
Healing all suffering
The story of this show is not complicated.
In 2006, on Junma Road in the seaside town of Matang, five high school students took root here.
Xiaoran (played by Chen Yixin) 's mother and Rui Ge (played by Li Jiahao) 's father are relatives, and they rent their daughter in Chenghai (played by He and ) 's house next door, the three children are on the same street Xiangnan (played by Niu Zemeng) and A Tao (played by Tan Jiatai) became friends, and the five families became familiar with each other.
A Tao called Chenghai's mother "Mom"
It seems that many stories started by chance, Deshan , Gou Huan, Aze and other friends grew up together in Shuangmen-dong, Seoul, and gradually changed from strangers over the years. , become the closest "neighbor family".
Yeah, who's youth doesn't have family participation? In fact, parents and family are the most important sources of security in those years.
"Reply 1988" poster
I always remember the first passage in "1988" that touched me.
Deshan has endured a lot of grievances as a "second daughter": she has a sister and a younger brother, she does a lot of housework, and her birthday is shared with her sister; she also likes to eat poached eggs, which she has to give to her sister and brother; gas leaks at home , one of my parents carried my elder sister and the other dragged my younger brother. She was the only one who crawled out on her own...
All dissatisfaction finally broke out on her birthday, "Why do I want to celebrate my birthday with my sister? Why can they call meaningful Paula, Yu Hui, I'm just the most ordinary Deshan?"
Maybe every time this happens, parents willHate your own powerlessness. Dad Cheng Dongri had a birthday for Deshan alone after working exhaustedly, "Dad, I wasn't born a father, and my father is also a father for the first time."
Parents are ordinary people, not perfect. There are many things that cannot be done, but this love always shines brightly. In
"Please Answer 1988" line
"When You Were Young", Xiaoran also has an unreliable mother.
doesn't know how to cook. He chose fermented bean curd by mistake for fried stinky tofu, and the smell "attacks" the whole yard.
barrages ridicule, maybe Xiaoran's mother is the little princess who needs her daughter's protection, and Xiaoran, who should be protected, has grown into an independent female warrior.
Xiaoran's mother fried stinky tofu with bean curd
In fact, Xiaoran's mother is indeed a "little princess".
She grew up in a wealthy family carefree, married her lover and gave birth to a daughter. If it wasn't for the accidental death of Xiaoran's father, she might have been loved, protected and stable like An Jie in " Parents Love " End of life. Unfortunately, it backfired.
's "no" now is a brave attempt by the original "little princess" to be forced to quickly become independent. It is her love for Xiaoran, and she supports her through the pain of vicissitudes. Only love and affection can resolve the misery in life.
"I heard that God cannot be everywhere, so I created mothers."

Friendship
The joys and sorrows are related to a group of people Sitting at Azer's house and eating ramen together.
is not because of the food, but the time spent with each other, like a long vacation that will never end.
Especially on birthdays, the children have a legitimate reason to get together, even if Gou Huan's goal is clearly for the Chinese liquor that Aze brought back.
Shuangmendong children gave Aze a birthday
Maybe this is also the birthday party that "The Five Sons of Ma Tang Town" were looking forward to in "When You Were Young"?
Unfortunately, the fireworks were placed in the school warehouse and accidentally lit by the convex lens . Everyone quietly prepared a birthday surprise for Xiaoran, which became a "scare" that almost blew up the school.
That's it, cakes turn into ice cream, fireworks turn into red candles with 5 cents. is a good friend who wants to give you a sense of birthday ceremony even if you only have two yuan or five in your pocket.
Do you have such a good friend? is usually a troublesome "big grievance", but the critical moment must be the relatives and sisters standing behind you. In the fifth episode of
, the "Volume King" faced a major campus crisis with a smile. He just won an English competition, and his competitor Chen Hao spread rumors on the school post bar.
Chen Hao anonymously posted the "Pink Panther Xiaoran" that she accidentally photographed, slandering her for chaotic social relations, collusion with gangsters, and stealing her competition opportunities.
At the beginning of this century, this kind of dress for high school students was considered a bit "bold".
Facing the rumors, the other four friends never doubted Xiaoran.
In order to help her crush the rumors, they even put on pink suits and took a set of "promotional photos" on the school bulletin board, which was funny and touching.
"I'm talking nonsense, you believe it? Just oneFigure, whoever believes it is stupid ×! "
Youth is like this, always have the courage to move forward. What is face? Good friends are the most important.
"When You were Young"'s delicate portrayal of family, friendship and a trace of ignorant secret love is outlined in the plot The warm and healing feeling in the movie is very similar to "Reply 1988". The joys and sorrows of
when he was young are often related to a group of people. During the process of watching the drama, I was in a trance, as if I was going south, Chenghai, and the drama.
is not just a youth story in Matang Town, but also "Reply 2006" that records the youth memories of our generation.

nostalgic texture
sincerity flows in the details
"Please answer , can be watched repeatedly without being boring. The details of life in Shuangmendong in the last century are reproduced as they are. The same is true for
"When You Were Young". It seems hard to believe before watching it. The nostalgic texture can be portrayed so delicately and realistically.
set the scenery and serve the road to penetrate the nostalgic feeling There are daily necessities.
There is a desk under the window sill, behind the door hangs "the number of days before the college entrance examination", and the door is opened to a mirror and an old small stand. On the stand are my brother's toys, and the most popular decorative fakes in those years. Flowers.
Two-color bare walls, diamond-shaped tiled floors, wooden rocking chairs, swing frames in the yard, and wire loop-back chairs that are almost impossible to find now, the breath of the times is blowing. Going forward, it is like opening a "time-blind box" , those memories belonging to more than ten years ago are triggered one by one with specific objects. Jie Fan is eagerly waiting for Jay Chou 's latest physical album. Rui Ge used a PHS mobile phone, Cheng Hai was the first to get MP3s, and his grandmother was still listening to the show on the radio.
Xiaoran was reticent when he first moved in and became a kelp She went to the night market, hoops, fried stinky tofu , marshmallows and balloons. Looking south for Xiaoran Play, the first sentence asks if the magazine " Fireworks " has arrived.
Our post-90s generation, who hasn't experienced such a colorful youth era?
clicked on "When You Were Young", it was as if I was caught off guard and broke into the best memories, and everything was shining.
smiled and the bedside was covered with Jay Chou album posters
A youth drama director once told to cook Xiaoxian (pengxx01) , "Reply 1988" has almost become an adjective for a high-quality youth drama in the same type of work .
There is no creator who doesn't want to make his own "1988", but there is often a gap between ideals and reality. As one of the categories closest to the audience, youth dramas are easy to be scolded once suspended.
When we are immersed in the stories of 1988, we are also thinking, What kind of youth stories do Chinese audiences need? The word-of-mouth feedback from
"When You Were Young" tells us that it is not only works with big productions, big stars, and big traffic that have an audience, and sincere works are enoughseen by the audience.
In the youth drama track, in fact, we don't need to be so intense and deliberately dramatized. We just need to tell the stories of ordinary people and ordinary children clearly, which is enough to show the creator's skill.
Campus family, three meals a day, neighbors, three or five friends, teenagers and parents have their own troubles and happiness, hard work and tenacity.
outlines these stories, gently implements them, and the episodes are good enough.
I can't scold me this time, do you like "When You Were Young"?
