I think the Korean drama "My Uncle" tells the story of three uncle brothers who are under the pressure of life in their own way and a young woman who is also under the pressure of life. They are healed by understanding each other's lives. story. "My Uncle" is a TV series directed by Kim Won-seok and starring IU, Lee Sun-kyun, Na Moon-hee, Song Shin-bi, etc. It was broadcast on tvN on March 21, 2018.

In the play, Li Zhian (played by Li Zhien) is a 20-year-old woman living in darkness. Her family environment is poor, she owes a lot of loan sharks, and her paralyzed grandmother has no money to pay for the nursing home. , so I can only work day and night to earn living expenses. Park Dong-hoon (played by Lee Sun-kyun) is a man in his 40s who is suppressed everywhere in the workplace. His brothers at home are not living up to expectations, and his wife has cheated on someone else, but he is still kept in the dark.

These two men and women, who bear the heavy pressure of life, originally lived completely different lives. After meeting, they gradually entered each other's lives and obtained healing from each other. "My Uncle" tells people that the reason why people can comfort and understand others is not because they have an easier time than others, but because everyone has pain in their hearts. Whether it is a minister over 40 or a woman in her 20s, everyone carries a heavy burden. But it is precisely because of this baggage that people can understand each other better.

"My Uncle" conforms to the current trend and has two major trend elements, "miserable" and "uncle". It is good at laying out narratives and creating atmosphere. In a miserable and cruel society, a meal can be exchanged for a favor. The spring in the undercurrent repays the favor, which is comparable to the straw for a drowning person. The people in the play grasp this fragile and slender straw and continue to struggle to live a human life - they can do without dignity and reputation, but they cannot give up the bottom line, otherwise they will no longer be human. And what is tied to the other end of this straw is the audience's heart. Watching others escape from suffering, even if they don't help, they can still feel the passionate happiness from the result.
