The Day Of Becoming You Peak Points *Spoiler Alert + Musings
The Difference Between A Happy Life From A Happy Soul
Since Jiang Yi and Yu Sheng Sheng switched bodies, they experienced how different their worlds were from each other. Nevertheless, the universe continues to connect them even though society refuses.
In Jiang Yi’s situation, it seems like he is living the perfect life as a talented and loved artist. As Yu Sheng Sheng tried to experience his life, she realized how hard Jiang Yi’s life is.
Being an entertainment reporter and Little Galaxy’s fans helped her to know the limitations of her actions. She was able to see Jiang Yi’s fears and helped him as she lives his life.
Even though Yu Sheng Sheng has a tough life with her profession, she is surrounded with love that made her soul happy. Because of her, Jiang Yi’s fans finally see how he smiles.
Through switching, it shows that we can identify if someone has a happy soul. Since Jiang Yi met Yu Sheng Sheng, he finally feel the emotions he never felt since he was a child.
The Day Of Becoming You teaches us that to be able to have a good life, we should make our soul happy first. Like our physical bodies, we should feed positive things to our souls.
Doing things we are passionate about, eating the food we crave, and fangirling over our favorite idols are simple ways to make our souls happy.
A Choice To Spread Positivity
As an idol, Jiang Yi is prepared to hear and read negative comments on social media. The series also showed how cyberbullying affects celebrities and even normal citizens.
Furthermore, the story highlights the importance of putting ourselves in other’s shoes before talking. Also, it reminds us that known personalities also have feelings like normal people.
Jiang Yi and Yu Sheng Sheng’s loved ones also received hate comments since their relationship got exposed. They all showed that they have different limitations and impacts.
I appreciate stories that use their platform to give awareness about societal issues. The Day Of Becoming You showed how powerful words can be.
In addition, Jiang Yi and Yu Sheng Sheng’s relationship was ruined because of false information written online.
From that one article, it created a huge uproar in the social media that almost ruin Jiang Yi and Yu Sheng Sheng’s lives.
With that, the series again reminds its audience to always choose to be good. Even though one is having a rough life doesn’t mean one should spread hate and anger to others.
Right Time At The Right Moment
Focusing again on Jiang Yi’s life, he holds resentment with his parents since he was young. He never experienced the life others experienced as a child.
Nevertheless, he was able to forgive his parents and start again at a different time with the help of Yu Sheng Sheng.
As he lives in Yu Sheng Sheng’s body, he bravely talks and faces her mother. He was also able to hear his mother’s thoughts that made him understand her.
Even though he had a rough experience as a child, he opens up a new chapter in his life and at the right moment, he welcomes his parents into his life again.
Jiang Yi and Yu Sheng Sheng’s first relationship also ended because of the wrong timing. Though they consider the situations that will happen, they underestimate how they will affect the lives of their loved ones.
They then decided to break ties with each other to avoid switching and hurting their loved ones. But unlike before, Jiang Yi values the lesson he learned with Yu Sheng Sheng and found a way to be together without hiding.
With Jiang Yi’s effort, he created the right moment to start again with Yu Sheng Sheng. Because of her, he was able to remove his mask and express his true self to the world.
