span final exam tmr and i decided to binge another drama in two days abit heavy but super healing and reflection worthy proud of taiwan again, hope to see more drama like this that can bring positive change to the society thank you, the world between us team

one of the best thing about this drama is that it’s short and not slow (only 10 eps, each less than an hour) fully packed that i don’t need to hit the skip button, perfect length

altho ive cried more extreme for other drama, this one made me cry the most in terms of frequency perfect cast with the way they present each point of view and their struggle: victims, perpetrator’s family, media, psychologists, fam member of those with mental disorder

they did so well exploring themes that are relevant to our society including mental health, ethics of journalism, netizens, legal system, marriage, family, grief, coping, the grey areas of morality and justice; this might be the MOST meaningful drama ive watched in my life

when i watch news about serial killer or random shooters, i used to wonder why their parent didn’t give them more love, why their teacher didn’t pay more attention, why their friend didn’t stop them...

以前看新聞只想著怎麼會有這麼十惡不赦的人，為什麼沒有人阻止他們做出這樣的事?

but after watching the world between us, this drama has changed me...

但看了這部戲才知道大家都是受害者，包括受害者的家人（”全天下沒有一個爸爸媽媽要花20年去養一個殺人犯”）而我們也不應該隨便幫任何人貼上標籤，所有事情都需要看全部面貌。也不是所有事情都有著絕對的對與錯、標準的正義。

「民主法治是用來討好人民，討好媒體的嗎？ 一個民主法治國家，要靠殺人才可以撫慰人心，保障我們的安全，這太荒謬了。」

「公平不只是要懲罰一個人的過失，公平更是試著理解錯誤背後的原因」

- he deserves the award ugh
- had to replay to digest all the wise word in this scene

「這世界上有兩種假的正義: 用自己的罪懲罰別人、用別人的罪懲罰自己」

- best character development
- cried for many of her scene
- she’s so pretty ahh

「每個無法繼續的時候，都是重新開始的機會！」

- so proud of her, she improved so much ㅠㅠ
- cried for most of her parts, rlly want to give her a hug

「冷漠不是因為不想關心，只是每個人都忙著包紮自己的傷口」

- they did do well portraying the difficulty of marriage and coping with loss
- they inspired me to become a marriage counselor or those who help the kid overcome this phase

思聰：為什麼是我...
喬平：可能因為你比較勇敢！

- as a psyc major, i lost it this scene
- he deserves everything for this role bruh
- this drama reminded me again, im not ready...

that’s a wrap to this thread!! the chinese title of “the world between us” is 我們與惡的距; literally translate to “our distance with the evil”

this is to remind us that in reality, our distance from evil is never fixed, no one is truly good no one is truly bad
