Park Haeyoung never misses!
“If only the weather could change, if only there were a machine that could create any type of weather, I wonder what kind of weather I’d create right now.” – Hwang Dong Man
I finished this show with tears running down my cheeks and the killing curiosity of wanting to pinpoint what exact emotion am I feeling right now. This exact emotion I felt with the other two shows made by Park Haeyoung. My Mister, My Liberation Notes. It’s crazy, not once has a show of hers failed to make me feel this exact type of emotion.
Where I know I’ll be stuck reminiscing on this show even as time passes. Where it feels like I’m parting ways with a family I just got close to, and it makes me feel sick. I want to cry but celebrate that I got to watch a show this brilliant. The type of show that opens up emotions inside of me which I usually hardly ever acknowledge or pour out on when watching something.
Its weird, I usually always say I’m an emotional person who cries at the smallest things, and while thats true, *because* I cry at everything, nothing stays with me long term. But here? I cried and could tell you which scene it was that made me shed a tear or clutch my chest because my heart feels like its going through the same exact thing as the character on screen.
This entire show was based on emotions, and it perfectly encapsulated humanity. Humor, sadness, depression, regret. Each word albeit similar, harbours its own meaning.
This show left me wanting to know and be more present with my emotions. That when I feel jealousy or betrayal, or happiness when someone fails, but anger when things don’t go my way— it’s all human. It’s a human ‘being’. We are all just being.
I’m sure after a couple of weeks pass I’ll forget about all of these feelings I have. But I know I’ll find myself thinking about certain quotes or scenes when I’m by myself, sitting somewhere. Or if I encounter a person exactly like Hwang Dongman. Because I find myself wondering if there is such a person like he. Someone who will make you feel okay for being absurd, but doesn’t just comfort you with words but with actions. We should all learn to be a bit like him. Maybe not all, but a little. Life could be a bit more bearable then.
Amazing show. 10/10.
