Love Me, Love My Voice: A Heartwarming Journey into the World of Voice Acting
After watching Episode 16 of "Love Me, Love My Voice," I couldn't hold back my emotions. Unexpectedly, the play within the drama celebrating the 10th anniversary of perfect dubbing touched me to tears. With just a few lines, it struck a chord deep within me.
This scene made me realize the power of acting through voice. Voice actors are no longer mere fictional characters created by directors and screenwriters for the sake of romance. They are real individuals. This series takes us into the world of voice acting and allows us to experience its charm.
Furthermore, before opening "Love Me, Love My Voice," I never expected it to be such a normal, ordinary, genuine, and positive romantic drama. The moments between Gu Sheng and Mo Qingcheng depict a realistic and wholesome love story.
During Gu Sheng's first visit to Mo Qingcheng's home, while cooking, I anticipated a cliche moment where Gu Sheng would stumble and they would have physical contact. However, to my surprise, Gu Sheng effortlessly reached for the cup without any mishaps. When Mo Qingcheng took Gu Sheng on their first date, instead of leaning over to fasten her seatbelt, he reminded her to do it herself and then took the seatbelt from Gu Sheng's hand to help her secure it.
When Mo Qingcheng fell ill, Gu Sheng went to his house to take care of him. It was her first time cooking, yet the dishes turned out perfectly, not burnt or salty. She even prepared side dishes to accompany the white porridge. Gu Sheng's attire also reflects a student's modest spending habits. She wears new Chinese-style clothing that she personally likes, which suits her character.
Their outings are not extravagant places that contradict their characters. Instead, they visit ordinary restaurants where they enjoy affordable meals. It's rare to see such down-to-earth and relatable prices in idol dramas. When Mo Qingcheng's fans discovered his affection for Gu Sheng, they didn't look down on her just because she's an unknown person. Instead, they were genuinely happy for them.
Some argue that the emotional development between Gu Sheng and Mo Qingcheng is inexplicable and unrealistic. However, the drama itself provides an answer to this. Gu Sheng becomes infatuated with Mo Qingcheng's voice, even though they have never met. How can such deep feelings develop? Gu Sheng and Mo Qingcheng address this in the series.
Mo Qingcheng also mentions that we should not become too attached to someone based solely on their voice, as we never truly know who they are on the other end of the internet. This drama serves as a reminder to himself, his fans, and the audience that we should not let our guard down when it comes to disliking someone's voice. In conclusion, a voice is merely the beginning of a fondness and can trigger the desire to meet in person. Love, on the other hand, requires real-life interaction and nurturing.
Mo Qingcheng and Gu Sheng's relationship showcases a normal and healthy approach to romance. It is not solely built on ephemeral admiration fostered online, but on the gradual closeness they develop in real life.
