"Light ancient costume" and "Yulouchun", the integration of traditional cultural elements is worth seeing.

At first glance, the comic narrative setting of the new drama "Yulouchun" is very light; Looking closely, the drama has some bright spots in the integration of traditional cultural elements and image expression.

Author: and song

Unexpectedly, the beautiful Luoshen dance has a new version, this time in the costume drama "Yulouchun".

 

Wu Yuehong, the grandson’s eldest daughter-in-law played by Yoko Spicy Eyes, accompanied by playful music, walked away to her husband, Sun Shijie, clumsily and confidently imitating Luo Shen’s "body flying fast and limping".

 

Sun Shijie, who "fled", commented that this dance was "effective from the east", but the contrast between the slim Luo Shen in the painting and Wu Yuehong’s "Luo Shen" plus version outside the painting made many netizens laugh, which also opened the corner of the light narrative of the play.

There are many scenes that make people laugh. In the latest story, the heroine Lin Shaochun (White Deer) uses pollen allergy to "seal" her beauty and successfully escapes from choosing a concubine.

 

What kind of people are these and what interesting stories are they telling?

 

"Fast-forward" version of the ancient style, shaking out dense "baggage"

"Yulouchun" tells the story of Lin Shaochun, who was displaced from the street in his family. By chance, he fell in love with Yulou (Wang Yizhe), the son of the records of the dynasty, and then married into the grandson of Zhong Ming, who was a food eater, and then started a relaxed and interesting story of "family happiness".

Judging from the picture, "Yulouchun" looks like an open ancient book. The opening part follows a shadow play along the street, passing through pavilions, streets and lanes, "embracing" three religions and nine streams and princes and nobles, and positioning itself in the main venue of the story-the prominent Sun family in the "directory" introduction.

 

The fast-forward of "shadow play" made the characters appear one after another, and the stories immediately became "lively", and the comedy style began to appear. In the Sun family, funny stories were staged one by one-

 

Wu Yuehong, the eldest daughter-in-law, not only imitates Luo Shen, but also comes from a family of military officers. She has just been taught by her mother-in-law to be "considerate and caring" for her husband, and then she turns around and shoulders her burly husband and leaves.

 

Xu Fengqiao (Gina), the third daughter-in-law, is "a royal husband with skills". No matter how many reasons he finds to cover up staying out at night, he does not fall behind in "unique ways" such as kneeling abacus and eating Chili peppers.

 

In Yulouchun, various humorous inversions are still presented on different occasions. For example, in order to test whether Lin Shaochun pretended to be greedy for vanity because he declined his pursuit, Yulou invited his friends to pretend to be a dude and forced Lin Shaochun to drink, but he was ready to stand up at the critical moment and stage a drama of "saving the beauty by a hero", but he did not want Lin Shaochun to easily resolve the "crisis".

 

A series of hilarious plots also provided an entrance for the audience to quickly enter the show.

 

As far as the 10 episodes updated in the first week are concerned, the story lines of "Yulouchun" in Sun’s mansion, namely, the daily life of the male and female host, the acquaintance and love of the male and female host, and the heroine’s redress for the father, go hand in hand, including more characters, which makes the plot progress contradictory and motivated.

 

The multi-line simultaneous development of the whole drama has also created more contact points for the integration with traditional culture. In the daily life of Sunjia Mansion, shadow play of intangible cultural heritage is used in series; The feelings of Lin Shaochun and Sun Yulou have warmed up in the performances of one hundred theatrical troupes. Traditional cultural elements such as pipa, guqin, flower arrangement, incense and so on are all presented.

 

In terms of scenery setting, according to Luan Hexin, production designer, the play refers to the collocation of traditional painting colors in China and the layout of the new Chinese style structure and environment, and is associated with different characters and stories, "to present a warm image for the audience".

 

In terms of modeling, Song Xiaotao, the modeling director, chose a light color scheme for the needs of the drama series to show all kinds of life, and embellished it with many non-legacy techniques under the details. For example, Gu embroidery, which originated in the Ming Dynasty, is used in clothing production, and delicate and elegant flowers are also used in jewelry production besides traditional crafts such as silk-cutting and treasure-embedding.

 

 "Small personality" leads to "family happiness"

Regardless of genre and form, a drama is still telling stories and shaping people. For this humorous costume drama, the "family fun" character of the characters promotes the "family fun" trend of the plot.

 

Several groups of Sun family characters with different personalities give the story a different foothold, which can be humorous, ridiculous, reversed and serious. This is most obvious among several female characters in the Sun family.

 

Sun Jia’s eldest daughter-in-law, Wu Yuehong, is a typical "humorous bear", who will watch Luo Shen make a beautiful imitation makeup and dance swords and recite poems; 

 

Su Yingxue, the second daughter-in-law, is "partial to literature and art" and loves to play a little temper, but she enjoys hearing good melody.

 

Adrian Xu, the third daughter-in-law, is arrogant and provocative, and she will never suffer.

 

Lin Shaochun, who is about to marry into Sun Fu, obviously feels more "heavy responsibility on her shoulders" than other women: she lost her parents overnight because of her father’s injustice in childhood, and she is strengthening herself through experience, whether she is studying in a troupe or choosing a concubine in the palace.

 

The characters of several women have become the "basic disk" of the plot, and the characters with their own characteristics make the movements between paragraphs complement each other, humorous but not too noisy; In the daily life of husband and wife, father and son and sister-in-law, it can be seen that the drama series thinks about the relationship between individuals and families, but it is not too deep; Vivid characters and diverse emotional relationships jointly set off the daily fireworks in the deep house compound.

 

All the people outside Sun Fu also stick to their own principles.

Yao Dizhu, Xu Fengqiao’s cousin, never refused to be "taken care of" in marriage matters, and skillfully used her mind to make herself unsuccessful in the draft, not seeking prosperity, but seeking "one person for life." Liu Sanjue, the master of the troupe, has mastered the stunt that can make girls in that era "live" and pretend to be boys without revealing their flaws. However, Liu Sanjue always emphasized to his disciples that "this skill cannot be exchanged for unjust utilitarianism".

 

Although these characters are in the background of ancient society, they all dare to break free from the shackles of the times. The drama connects with the modern audience with the logic of ordinary people-bravely pursuing marriage and love, but also sticking to the bottom line of personal value.

 

The brisk pace, dense baggage and happy family atmosphere are the obvious characteristics of Yulouchun at present. However, there is still room for improvement in plot narration and bridge design. With the advancement of the story, I look forward to better performance in the future.
