Romance and the story of the dragonfly biting the navel

1 Millimeter From You, written by Minh Ngoc - Thuy Vu, directed by Pham Gia Phuong - Tran Trong Khoi, is airing at 8pm every Thursday and Friday on VTV3.

But it's not just the story of a dragonfly biting the navel and knowing how to swim, there are many details in the two episodes that make viewers emotional.

It is a fight scene between two "countryside gangs" on a journey to protect their territory, a scene of going herd out in the fields with close friends playing all kinds of games, handwritten letters passed back and forth.

Viewers chuckled because: "This is the whole childhood sky. If you like someone back then, you would write a handwritten letter with all your sincerity without any hesitation. At that time, social networks were not as developed as they are now, all feelings were expressed through handwritten letters. The funniest thing is that the postman would have to complete the task of delivering the letter from the writer to the other half."

"I just sat there and laughed. The scene of going out and herding cows was so similar to the old days. The movie impressed me with the postman. Hearing him say he was adorable, I felt sorry for his cuteness", "Watching the movie, I felt my whole intense childhood coming back".

The scene where Tu took Quyen, who was weak because of heart disease, onto a boat to go fishing on the lake even though she couldn't swim, leading to both of them falling into the water, has an opinion: "Two people who don't know how to swim, yet they dare to row the boat out to the middle to fish without life jackets. The director should review this scene. You can fish while sitting on the shore."

Immediately after that was a series of rebuttals: "Village children It was like that in the past. Didn't know how to swim but still jumped into the river", "Have you experienced the childhood of the 8X, 9X generation? I didn't know how to swim but still went to the river to catch mussels", "It's like the childhood of children in the past. Think simple, live simple. Didn't know how to swim but still followed friends to wade across the river. Even rowed a boat across the river".
