Sweet Basil - ep 6

OKAY so remember this scene?

WELL, look at what google says about the symbolism of ‘sweet basil’:

GOODBYE.

I like you, Theo. I’ve liked you for so long. But I didn’t want to wishfully think someone like you would like me too. You know what? I’ve been waiting to hear that from you. I’ve always liked you. I’ve never stopped liking you. Sorry I kept you waiting. You know? You’re the one I’ve always had feelings for too. Don’t you go far away from me again. So… Can I kiss you? Kiss you as your Enchanté. Kiss you as someone who likes you. Kiss you…

LIGHT ON ME (2021) EP. 15

It's really hard to believe we now have korean dramas that doesn't focus on the romance, where you can ignore the romance if you wish and that the romance doesn't overwhelm the actual plot. For years I didn't have any interest in kdrama because it was always about "guy meets girl", if you see a guy standing next to a girl you already know where this is going, everybody is always falling in love all the time. Even when there was a good plot, it moved tangled in the romance, and it was really hard to watch if you are romance repulsed, don't like romance or are just really really tired of ships and couples. This is unprecedented.

You know what, Sang Yi? You’re very cute.

Two more days guys! In the meantime, a mini analysis for you all!

The Romeo and Juliet act where they commit suicide is actually represented in Bad Buddy!

Remember this scene? aka the only moment we get to laugh in this curse ep?

Here me out. So we all now Bad Buddy is somewhat based on a modern version of Romeo and Juliet.

[Pat is Juliet. Fight me.]

So. In the ending of that tragic play we have the iconic sequence in which Juliet supposedly drinks a poison that kills her, but in reality just makes her appear dead. Then Romeo follows killing himself for real, and then, Juliet stabs herself, and the whole thing is a mess of non-communication.

So let’s compare, shall we?

1. We have Pat, “throwing away” his cellphone chip. Aka, Juliet faking her death.

2. We have Pran, doing the same right after Pat. Aka, Romeo actually following Juliet.

A this time we’re all like. Shit. They really did that.

But THEN

3. “Haha, you dummy!” Aka, no, Romeo, Juliet was not really dEAD! Pran really threw it out? He really actually killed himself?

4. Haha! You thought! Of course he didn’t! And then this:

“Do you really think I don’t know you?”

Here’s WHY I think this scene heavily shows a representation of the suicide scene in Romeo and Juliet:

Let me start with a question. How many of you would simply get rid of you’re phone number? Throw it away into the sea without a care? Throw away your whole life, cause FACE IT. It IS your whole life. Your family? Your friends, a huge part of yourself?

Exactly. You’d have to be in a lot of pain to do that right? Commiting suicide is the very last stage of indescribable pain. Throwing away the “heart” of your phone could be thought of as throwing away your life.

But they didn’t. Here’s where it obviously goes differently. Pran knows Pat to a point where he knows he would never do that. Pat knows Pran to a point where he knows Pran would never believe he’d do something like that.

Here’s where it doesn’t end up tragically. They both live.

Because they know each other. They understand each other. They communicate. They love each other too much to ask the other to take such risks.

And I think that’s beautiful.

Thanks for reading!
