The article explores the concept of love languages and contrasts them with expressions of love found in cinema and television. It highlights three cinematic styles: the confession, the grand gesture, and the spontaneous song. By examining how these forms manifest in storytelling, particularly through poetic declarations such as Gong Yoo's recitation of "The Physics of Love" in the series "Goblin," the author suggests that the vulnerability and artistry in these expressions evoke profound emotional responses and universal sentiments about love.
When lead actor Gong Yoo recites Kim In-yook's "The Physics of Love" in "Goblin," he's speaking about the gravitational pull of first love, but we're the ones who feel its effects.
There are times when words converge in such exquisite patterns, they rewire our nervous systems, making us feel intangible things that we recognize as universal.
In life, according to my friend Grace, those are the five expressions of love. In the lands of cinema and series, however, there are only three: the confession, the grand gesture, and bursting into song.
One of the most vibrant expressions comes from blending the vulnerability of a confession with the intent of a song—a declaration of love through poetry.
