Douban soared to 8.4 points, another dark horse of domestic drama was born, and one of the top ten of the year is scheduled

If you want to ask any "dark horse" dramas recently, it must be the domestic drama " Sanyue has a new job ", which has achieved a reverse drop in word-of-mouth after the end.

Although the Douban score of "Sanyue Has a New Job" has fluctuated from 8.3 to 8.4 from the beginning to the end, it can definitely be regarded as the top three domestic dramas this year, but in terms of the scope and popularity of breaking the circle, Still classified as "niche" category.

First of all, in terms of the subject matter of this drama, "Sanyue Has a New Job" chose the "funeral industry" that was relatively rare in previous film and television dramas. Zhao Sanyue, who was in conflict with his family and lost his job, became a crematorium by accident. The make-up artist, in this place where everyone keeps a secret and has witnessed too much grief, through the growth of Zhao Sanyue, to describe the regrets of each deceased before death and the sadness left after death, thus reflecting the thinking about death and love. .

This drama has been full of "niche" atmosphere from the beginning of the project, not only because the subject matter is relatively rare, but also because the main creative team of this drama has gathered most of the creators in the industry who focus on "women's growth" as the main research direction. For example, the representative of director Li Mo is the high-scoring female group portrait drama " I am very good in a foreign country ", and the representative work of screenwriter You Xiaoying is the movie "My Sister".

After a team like this gets together, the most important thing is what can be conveyed to the audience through a smooth plot. To put it more bluntly, it is through the drama "Sanyue Has a New Job" to give to our generation and make up for it. The missing death education in the classroom. This was originally a difficult task. After all, the fear and rejection of death in the Chinese people’s bones made us subconsciously avoid related topics.

But the entry point of "Sanyue Has a New Job" is so down-to-earth that the audience can't help being immersed in it. For example, the post-95 heroine Zhao Sanyue graduated from university, but it was difficult to find a job related to her major. She lay flat at home for a year. If she hadn’t broken up with her mother, she would probably have been lying down for a long time, even if she was kicked out of the house by her mother. With the help of "going through the back door" to become a contract worker of the funeral home, Zhao Sanyue's life is still in mourning and has to go back and forth for money work -


Without money, it is difficult to walk, and working hard for money makes life worse than death. It's better to roll it up.

When such a character came out, many viewers instantly felt a little "sympathetic". In the environment of more and more " inward ", the pressure of work and life made it difficult for us to walk, even some. At times, we will have the same thought as Sanyue, that is, just lie down to the end and die.


But is death really that easy?


A patient with advanced gastric cancer calmly said that he was taking painkillers, a mobile phone repairer who loved his job died of a myocardial infarction, a child with a dream of spaceflight did not defeat leukemia in the end, and a comfort woman grandmother who was mourned by countless people after her death...

Each of them worked so hard to survive and struggled, and finally became the peaceful passer-by of the funeral home. The most touching thing about this drama is that although it tells the stories of the deceased, each unit actually explores the past and family of the deceased from the perspective of Zhao Sanyue, and then connects one after another. hot social topics, such as patriarchal gender discrimination, comfort women, doctor-patient disputes, etc.

It's like Zhao Sanyue figured out the truth after working in the funeral home for three months. The funeral home seems to be arranging the remains to serve the deceased. In fact, the more important function is to comfort the living. It seems that the decent family members of the deceased often collapse when In an instant, sorting out the remains of the deceased is as important as understanding the family of the deceased.


It is said that the core of comedy is tragedy , and only by facing tragedy can it be cured.

Zhao Sanyue is like every ordinary person who doesn't know much about the funeral industry.Like the outside world, she had a lot of guesses, thinking that she could easily get a monthly salary of 20,000 in the funeral home. In fact, the senior sister Zhou Yanan who worked with her not only majored in funerals in college, but also passed five hurdles after graduation. Six generals are admitted to the office. Even if Zhao Sanyue is a contract worker who comes in through the "back door", he must pass the exam after three months of practice before he can become a regular.

Also in this job, Zhao Sanyue, like every ordinary person outside the screen, has experienced from a rookie who stumbled and made mistakes, to a failure of unconscious involution, and then to put down his hard armor to be with himself and his family of origin. the entire process of reconciliation.

Overall, although this "San Yue has a new job" has some minor shortcomings, it is definitely one of the most worth watching domestic dramas this year.
