[Chua-young's Music Box] Why Did 'What If We' Resonate with Today's Youth? The Romance Fantasy of the Non-Dating Generation

[Chua-young's Music Box] Why Did 'What If We' Resonate with Today's Youth? The Romance Fantasy of the Non-Dating Generation

I am captivated by the music in movies. Music sometimes conveys the intimate emotions of characters that cannot be expressed through visible images and audible dialogues alone. It can also serve as a window into the hidden intentions of the creator. For me, understanding movie music was one way to connect with the film. 'Chua-young's Music Box' listens to the voice of the movie more closely through music. (P.S. I hope you read this while listening to the music.)
The movie 〈What If We〉 is rewriting the record of Korean melodramas. Starting at number 2 in the box office, the film climbed to number 1 in its second week of release, beginning its resurgence. On social media, the 'Crying Challenge' trend emerged, drawing responses from the youth.
