Chapter 402:
-Moviegoer!
-Hi, everyone! This is Moviegoer!
“Hello, everyone. This is Moviegoer.”
Moviegoer bowed to the camera and lifted his head.
The camera installed on the monitor felt a bit unfamiliar.
He had just reviewed [One Shot] yesterday.
‘Maybe it''s because of the movie I''m going to review today.’
The viewers’ reactions were also similar to Moviegoer''s uneasy feeling.
-You look a bit different, don''t you?
-Moviegoer, please don''t hide it if you have any health problems??
-Yeah??
-No, he just gained weight;;;
-??Isn''t there a disease that makes you gain weight when you’re sick?
-Don''t take jokes as documentaries???
Moviegoer smiled and showed the camera a health checkup report that he had prepared in advance.
“I''m not sick. I''m very healthy. I had a health checkup recently. Here. You can see that everything is normal, right?”
-We didn''t ask you to show us...?
-But I feel relieved.
-It seems like a lot of YouTubers are worried about their health these days.
-Some of them did find out that they had some problems, though.
-I hope everyone gets well soon??
“I''m glad it''s not a serious illness. I hope the YouTubers who are sick get well soon.”
-Not only YouTubers, but also ordinary people seem to have a lot of health checkups, right?
-?? I did too. And my parents.
-A lot of people are asking how I''m doing too!
-The government has been promoting it every day, so shouldn''t they appoint Seo-jun as the ambassador???
-The sales of health products also increased???
“I''ve experienced how movies can change people''s lives, but I still think their influence is amazing. I''m also taking care of the health of the people around me. I hope you all take care of your family, friends, and yourself. Not only your physical health, but also your mental health.”
-??Yoon-chan??
-I really can''t see anything because of the tears??
The number of live viewers that had been increasing stopped at a certain number and fluctuated.
There were times when the live broadcast alarm didn''t ring, so Moviegoer chatted a little as usual and then started the movie review.
“Everyone here must have seen it, right? Please watch the movie first. Then I’ll start the review of the movie, Flowing Away. The movie Flowing Away is directed by Min Hee-kyung and stars Lee Seo-jun as the lead actor. It won the Golden Palme d’Or Award at the Cannes Film Festival this time! Lee Seo-jun and Min Hee-kyung, congratulations to both of you!”
Moviegoer clapped his hands and applause emoticons filled up the chat window.
-Congratulations!!!
-(Applause) and (cheering)
-??????
-Congratulations!(A bear emoticon clapping vigorously) Seo-jun said he watched Moviegoer''s video at Cannes live, so he must be watching this too!
-Huh! Really? Congratulations!!
When everyone shouted congratulations in response to that comment, the chat went up so fast that it was almost invisible. Moviegoer smiled brightly at the tremendous cheers.
“I hope Lee Seo-jun watches this.”
-You watched the movie at Cannes, right?
-How was it?
“It was good. It was very exciting to watch the world premiere. I was also thrilled at first because there were actors and directors around me. But I didn''t pay attention to them when I watched the movie.”
-I''m jealous. Watching a movie with Seo-jun next to you.
-But with Seo-jun''s acting skills, he probably wouldn''t notice even if he sat right next to him.
-222 It was funny and touching to talk with Min Hee-kyung.
“Flowing Away starts with the words that appear on the first screen. Along with the words written in a crisp font, Jung Ga-ram''s voice flows out.”
-This fall.
-I decided to go on a trip.
-The destination is the sea.
-Solidarity is awesome!
Moviegoer smiled and continued his speech.
“You all know that the working title of Flowing Away was Travel, right? Until Part 1, I thought it was Jung Ga-ram''s travelogue, going through Suwon, cheonan, Daegu, and Busan.”
-The places were really cool.
-That''s why there are a lot of people traveling.
-There are also a lot of foreigners.
-The people who cry there are Seo-jun''s fans.
-?????
-The destination is the sea.
“Yes. I think this might be an epilogue. It was a scene of Jung Ga-ram looking at the sunrise and turning around at Kwon Yoon-chan''s call.”
-Kwon Yoon-chan: Hey! Jung Ga-ram!
-Touching???
-I cried a lot here too.
-His smile was so bright??
-His complexion was good too??
“The epilogue came out and the movie ended as it flowed. I thought it was just a calm everyday story at first, but from the end of part 1 to the end of the movie, it was a movie that hit like a storm.”
-I couldn''t watch it without tears??
-I''m glad it was a happy ending.
-Ga-ram?? Yoon-chan?? Be happy?
“If part 1 was edited happiness and part 2 was unedited truth, then part 3 was uncertain reality.”
The moviegoer said in a calm voice.
“I think that''s where the title came from. The audience and the people in part 3 just focused on what they saw, and were swept away by other people''s opinions, not knowing whether it was true or false, and just flowed along.”
-Ooh. I see.
-I was curious about the meaning of the title.
“I think Flowing Away wanted to tell us that there might be hidden truths behind editing. In these days when many stories are floating around, don''t just go along with other people''s opinions, but discern the truth well.”
-But flowing along is not always a bad thing.
-22 Thanks to that, he met the doctor.
-He means to judge well.
-I thought it was because of the protagonist''s name.
One comment made Moviegoer nod.
“Yes. Jung Ga-ram''s name is also inseparable. Ga-ram is a pure Korean word. It means flowing like a river to the sea. It seems like Jung Ga-ram is flowing to the sea. Uh, um...”
Moviegoer scratched his cheek and opened his mouth.
“Well. That was the happy ending.”
-...Yes???
-...That''s it???
-What, what do you mean???
“Please keep in mind that this is my own interpretation from now on.”
-...Was it really a harmful material?
-Haha... Haha... Escape angle?
“First of all, let''s recall the beginning and the epilogue parts. Both had handwritten letters, right? But the fonts were different. A blocky font and a flowing font.”
-...Hmm.
“I thought it might be because Jung Ga-ram wrote it in a weak state, but in the first part, Jung Ga-ram''s voice came out, right? But not in the epilogue.”
-...Oh.
“And the words winter and we are also important. And the white snow that fell in the epilogue.”
-...Ah.
“If you combine them all... My interpretation is that Kwon Yoon-chan wrote the epilogue and ‘we’ means Kwon Yoon-chan and Jung Ga-ram''s parents without Jung Ga-ram. Winter seems to mean right after the surgery. He had surgery around late autumn, but he wouldn''t recover that quickly...”
The chat room that was slowly rising stopped.
In the heavy atmosphere, Moviegoer rolled his eyes and continued.
“Uh... You know how there are scenes like that in dramas. Going to the sea and... sprinkling it.”
The viewers all thought of the same scene.
People in white robes and black suits holding urns and sprinkling white powder towards the sea.
-Aaaaaa!!
-Ga-ram???
-...I curse you!! Movie acid!!
-Our Ga-ram... Our Ga-ram...!
“No, no need to curse...”
-I should have escaped earlier(regretful)?
-22 I think I’ll remember it when I see it again(despairing lion emoticon)???
-??Then what was Ga-ram at the end?
Moviegoer who was rolling his eyes awkwardly smiled and said.
“...An illusion?”
-Aaaaaa!!!
-Ha... Ha ha... It was pretty like an illusion.
They all seemed to have given up, but unfortunately, Moviegoer''s review was not over yet.
“There is a poem by Cheon Sang-byeong called The Poet''s Heaven. I will return to heaven. The day I end this beautiful world picnic.”
-I''m out of here!
“Go and say it was beautiful. Maybe Jung Ga-ram also ended his enjoyable trip and flowed to the sea, I think... Ack. Where are you all going?”
