"The Secret Corner" hides the deepest spoiler song, not "Little White Boat"
In the first half of this year, the most eye-catching suspense online drama "Secret Corner" (hereinafter referred to as "Secret") was officially VIP closed last Thursday. Since the show began, the popularity has been high, thanks to the excellent quality of the entire show "everything can be tasted, and every endurance". A group of old acting bones and small acting bones, sharp and strong narrative lens language, the atmosphere of a seaside town enveloping the taste of summer, and the open ending of the parallel of fairy tales and reality, all caused the audience "Leven Tiger Analysis and discussion.
What left the deepest impression on many audiences, apart from the unexpected cliff killing and Qin Hao's bald figure in the first episode, was nothing more than a god-class soundtrack throughout the show. "Secret Corner Soundtrack", "Secret Corner Little White Boat Horror Nursery Rhymes" and other topics have appeared on the hot search several times; in the barrage pool of the broadcast website, the jokes that "The Secret" soundtrack is "yin" music are everywhere; A few of the more light and normal styles of music were also rated as "thinking about fear" by netizens. In addition, the ending song of the play is also loved by many audiences, saying "This is the first TV show that does not want to skip the opening and ending of the film." "The Secret" ending song not only changed from episode to episode, the lineup also included Houhai Shark, Muma, Anti General, Joyside and other musicians who were enough to make senior fans crazy. It is no wonder that many viewers ridiculed "The Secret "Is "Summer of the Band 1.5".
In a previous interview with the Beijing News, Xin Shuang, director of "Secret", mentioned that he attaches importance to "listening" in the audiovisual language of the series. "Visual is actually half, what you see is half of the information. Half of it is actually aural information for you." Xin Shuang was a guitarist for the punk band Joyside, and his accumulated music sensitivity and taste in his past work are fully reflected in "The Secret". The director also talked in the interview that the 12 finale episodes in the series are not unexpected ideas during post-production, but the contents conceived during the script creation period. As the ending of each episode, the ending song will assume part of the narrative function, helping the audience to make a final emotional stretch.
"Little White Boat": Both Children's Song and Requiem
The image of the boat runs through the entire series of "The Secret", and the song "Little White Boat" floats in the ears of the audience from the beginning of the first episode to the end of the last episode. This "horror nursery rhyme" was teased by netizens as the "death notice" for the play. When the three children sang the song for the first time, Zhang Dongsheng's father-in-law and mother-in-law died behind nursery rhymes. In the sixth episode, the three children were lying on the big ship with the music of "Little White Boat", flying to the full moon while Xu Jing's death brought the audience back to the cruel reality.
The song "Little White Ship" was a popular children's song since it was translated into Chinese in the 1950s, but it is essentially a requiem. "It has fairy tale elements in it, and there are negative and cruel things in it." The director commented on the song in an interview with the Beijing News. The tearing feeling of the superimposed conflict between innocence and darkness also coincides with the fairy tales and reality in Descartes’s repeated emphasis in the episode.
As the ending song of the first episode, "Little White Boat" sung by the residents of Xiaojuan and the valley actually represents the fairy tale side of the series. The last sentence of the song was changed from "Floating to the West" to "Floating to the Cloud" outer". When the song appeared as an episode in the sixth episode, the audience had already seen a lot of deaths and was about to face the next death, and the lyrics were changed back to "Floating to the West" with the death symbol in the original version.
The story of "The Secret" ended with a sentence "Dedicated to Childhood". The "White Ship" sung by Qin Hao and the popular pop performer Wang Shengdi became the finale of the final episode, and also assumed the function of ending the narrative of the whole drama. At this time, the song title was also changed from "Little White Ship" "White Boat" implies the end of the innocent years of the protagonists' children. "Silver-white sails" have "sinked to the bottom of the ocean with the setting sun", "Naive you, where are you", "There is no other shore to reach" these lyrics can be regarded as the "final summary" of the entire show, In the song part of Wang Shengdi, the lyrics were changed back to "Floating to the Clouds". The song is based on fairy tales, which is also a final hope for good.
"Hesitation" "Good Night": the deepest spoiler killer
If "Little White Boat" is the "death trailer" found by most viewers, the ending song of the second episode "Hesitation" and the eighth episode of "Good Night" are the two most hidden songs in the show. . "Hesitation" inherited the story of Zhu Jingjing's falling from the building. The first few clear and fierce screams, the detailed and noisy percussion, and then the continuous playful roar in the music background, both echoing the title of the episode "Warning", but also continued The uneasy and absurd tone of the feature film. There is also a long period of time in the song where the harsh rubbing sounds similar to the mirror cleaning can not help but reminiscent of the thrilling scene of Qin Hao rubbing the mirror while wearing a wig after bathing in this episode.
The lyrics of "Hesitation" are full of spoilers when tasted carefully. "Red and blue, one must be selected" is also like two versions of the fairy tale and the truth throughout the show, red means facing the reality, blue means accepting the virtual. The phrase "Father who danced and fell to the ground and died" implied that Zhu Chaoyang's father gave his son a life. The last lyrics, "The most secret place, some ants died, I stood on the side, the expression of hesitation" also alluded to Zhu Chaoyang's hesitation when facing Zhu Jingjing's death.
Joyside's "Good Night" at the end of the eighth episode is a more subtle and deeper preview. The song inherited Zhu Zhaoyang's kidnapping by Wang Yao's brother Wang Li on the beach at night. Zhang Dongsheng witnessed all the plots in the corner, and the next episode was Zhang Dongsheng's plot to kill Wang Li in front of Zhu Chaoyang. The song "child in abyss" (children who stayed in the abyss) and "child in chaos" (children caught in chaos) may refer to Zhu Chaoyang struggling on the edge of darkness. "Tonight is just the night our souls are united" by Zhang Dongsheng and Zhu Chaoyang. On this night, Zhu Chaoyang witnessed death and killing like students in class under the bloody lights of the aquatic plant, which was also the starting point for the "Chaoyang" to gradually "east rise", maybe never wake up (Don't ever wake up ).
"DESCENT" and "Hell on Earth": From Darkness and Depression to Twisted Madness
The ending songs of the fourth and sixth episodes are all from the electronic musician Anti General. These two are also the most bizarre and dark songs in the twelve ending songs. "DESCENT" first perfectly echoes the plot of the fourth episode from the song title. The word "Descent" is translated as declining, and the plot of the three children who traded with Zhang Dongsheng for the first time in the fourth episode corresponds to the child's "descent" on the dark side.
"Hell on Earth" and Xu Jing's corpse, which appeared in the music of "Little White Ship" in the sixth episode, seamlessly connected, instantly pulling the audience from the beautiful fairy tale world to this "Hell on Earth". A siren similar to "DESCENT" also appeared, but the whispers behind the music were even more unscrupulous. People frantically communicate incomprehensible language, like the whisper of the devil in the ear of myth.
"The Man Who Stole the Moon" and "Dead in the Rotating Apartment": Is it a cure? No, still depressed
The ending song of the seventh episode "The Man Who Stole the Moon" and "The Death in the Rotating Apartment" of the ninth episode are relatively easy and bright two of the twelve songs. Houhai Shark's "The Man Who Steals the Moon" flies to the moon, and the picture of dancing on the moon directly echoes the story of "Little White Ship", which is supposed to represent the fairy tale side of the play. But "The Man Who Stole the Moon" is actually suggesting that perhaps part of the fairy tale is made by people. The title of the play is "Diary," Zhu Chaoyang's diary. The song "The Man Who Stole the Moon" can be regarded as Zhu Chaoyang's confession. He admitted in the song, "I am the one who made the thousand and one night fairy tale" (I am the one who made The thousand and the one night), and he also chose "I am living in the story" (I am living in the story), which reflects that Zhu Chaoyang finally chose to escape reality. At the same time, at the end of the song, the genre also turned to darkness, or the chaotic, noisy or sharp instrumental sound accompanied by the empty wind also returned to the previous depression tone.
The ninth episode of "Death in a Rotating Apartment" is the only ending song in the play with lines. In the background, Zhang Dongsheng revealed his desire to have a daughter, which echoes the story of Pope's surrender to Zhang Dongsheng and Zhang Dongsheng's father-like care of Pope. The music starts with a sound quality similar to a music box, and also brings out a touch of innocence. But in the midst of these symbols of goodness, mixed with faster and more chaotic, in the sad and lonely guitar sound, the song finally ushered in a melody similar to the waltz.
"Crane smaller than a young man" "Old days, no glory": Mourning with a sense of the picture
The ending songs of the 10th and 11th episodes "Crane smaller than a young man" and "Old days, no glory" are all produced by the producer of the soundtrack Ding Ke, who used to "Blood and Seek Plum" and "Blizzard" "Coming" has composed music. The biggest feature of Ding Ke is that his music is very graphic.
In the tenth episode, Pu Pu collapsed in front of Zhang Dongsheng due to an asthma attack, and has never appeared since. Therefore, "Crane, a younger man than a young man" can also be regarded as a farewell song dedicated to Pu Pu. The tone of the song is sad and heavy, and the unique singing method similar to whispers whispers the lyrics, like a memorable prose poem presented by the living to the dead. The lyrics of the "pious light blue soul", "young form, old spirit", "experienced the yin", "can't wait for the sunny", "ice pure" are also easily reminiscent of Pop Life and ending.
"In the past, there is no glory" took over the eleventh episode of the aquatic plant's fire, the crackling sound of the flames throughout, making the audience feel like being on the ground, as if they were like Ye Jun and Lao Chen, and Zhu Chaoyang in the car In that way, silently witnessed the burning fire. In the eleventh episode, the audience bid farewell to the two main characters Zhu Yongping and Wang Yao, and the fire of the aquatic plant also heralds that all the secrets of the entire episode are coming to an end. Zhu Chaoyang, who has lost his father, also seems to have lost his "brilliance". No noise, no confusion, "Old, No Glory" is such a requiem for all the dead and victims.
