Born to be the One - Chinese Drama of Family, Workplace, Relationship, and Urban Life

By Wenwen WANG - 10/11/2024 - 0 comments

"Born to the One" is 37 episodes of Chinese Drama directed by Jian Chuan He, starring by Yin Tao, Lawrence Wang, Zhang Ruo Nan. Release dated 31 August 2024.

This is not a story about an ordinary person (or the lower class) struggling to get to the bottom, but a story about how the once successful middle class accepts that good days are destined to stay away from you after middle age, and how you go on to live in another way.
 
The Song of Ordinary People is not only a TV series about love and marriage, but also a work that reflects social reality and touches people's hearts. The series uses the family life of three pairs of protagonists to integrate social issues such as midlife crisis, medical treatment for serious illness, and fertility choices. Starting from the perspective of ordinary people, the series analyzes the truth of life through their experiences. It constructs the rich topics of the series from the three narrative perspectives of individual, family, and workplace, presenting highly dramatic conflicts and contradictions in the social phenomena that the audience is familiar with, and also showing the complexity of the interweaving of ideals and reality. It is worth mentioning that the series easily disassembles real-life topics in a light and humorous context and a warm tone. The series does not fall into heaviness and anxiety, but leads the audience to find a good solution to the problem through the encounters and difficulties of the characters.

The Ordinary Man’s Song uses the family as a narrative space, telling the story of people of different ages struggling under the pressure of life, creating characters with different faces and rich emotional relationships. The characters in the play gain enthusiasm and courage to face life under the healing of the family or self-healing.

Episode 1

This first episode introduces the three pairs of protagonists or CPs.

It was a hectic morning at the Na household as Shen Lin has a young baby and a school kid and a busy husband.  But after sending her husband to work and her daughter to school, she miraculously turned into an elegant tea drinking woman in front of her camera.  She looks like she is some sort of influencer.

Her husband, Na Wei, was busy at work, trying not be made redundant as their managing director seemed to have found Buddha and determined to make work as simple as possible which he thought meant that culling employees was the thing to do.  Poor Na Wei got smacked on the face when he tried to calm down a man who had been made redundant.

Shen Lei, the brother of Shen Lin, is married to Xie Mei Lan who had just found out that she was pregnant which was the last thing they needed as they both can’t afford a baby at present time.

The third couple are Li Xiao Yue and Na Juan.  Li Xiao Yue often complains that dating Na Juan is like having a long distance relationship because they hardly see each other despite being on the same city.  Na Juan’s work is so time consuming he often spends days and nights at the office.
