《Tarot》E6Plot

Those who wish to take the bait/fishing

It describes a female live broadcast host who runs a 《 those who take the bait/fishing 》 channel and is loved by netizens for her pungent themes and pranks. However, one day after she disobeys her partners and breaks up the team, she must complete the work in front of and behind the scenes alone.Work brings terrible dangers and accidents.The Tarot corresponding to this story is “Chariot”, the upright position is “motivation towards success”, and the reverse position is “collapse and frustration”.

《Those who wish take the bait/fishing》 This story is generally quite ordinary. The screenwriter and director also put the most shocking moment at the end. The director used modern live broadcast pranks as the basis of the story of this episode, but in terms of the charactersIn terms of story design and story design, the writer and director are quite able to match the meaning of the “Chariot” brand. Although I still feel that it is a pity that the explanation of the meaning of the brand in this drama is too short and too general. But thinking about it from another angle, maybe the director wants the audience toYou can understand the meaning of the cards through the plot in the opposite direction, instead of understanding the story through Tarot. After all, there are many things that may limit the audience's imagination due to the director's excessive explanation, right?

At the beginning, the heroine is buying a car. This scene represents the success of her live broadcast career. It should mean that she is prospering on the road of live broadcast, otherwise she would not have paid the full amount with her card at once.In the first half of the plot - those who wish to take the bait/fishing - the director portrayed the heroine's ambition in live broadcast work, which is also in line with the enterprising spirit represented by Tarot, just like the dramaNakaya himself explained that it means the momentum of rushing towards success. The Tarot card looks like a prince standing on a chariot. However, the origin of this prince is not from a hereditary noble, but from a hereditary noble.She has achieved today's status by herself, so she echoes the heroine in "Those Who Want to Take the Hook/Fishing". She also relied on slowly accumulating to have the number of fans, viewers and sources of income she has today.

However, this story is not to say that the heroine’s live broadcast content and achievements deserve recognition, because Tarot is in the right position. In fact, it is very important to know how to reconcile balance and emotions in order to continue to conquer the next world., as shown on the card, the mountain forest behind the prince symbolizes his home or the place where he has just fought, and also represents the glory of past efforts, and the fact that he will turn his back to this place represents the progress he is taking.On a new journey, the stars on the crown symbolize ideals and hopes. The chariot in the “ upright position is a good sign, representing victory and success.

However, I feel that this story is quite consistent with the twists and turns of some people who become successful and then fall from the altar, because although the Chariot card represents success if it is in the upright position, it gives people a very important reminder that they mustTo balance everything, especially inner emotions and thoughts, be alert that people need to learn to control their emotions so that they can guide themselves to success with their own will and spirit. In other words, they must have ”wisdom“ and ”thinking“Only then can we have the momentum to rush towards success bravely.

Therefore, in the plot, the audience will always see the heroine really cursing people like crazy (and her temper is not ordinary). I believe this is also the director's metaphor that the heroine's success is not success, but short-term luck (thisPart of it comes from - those who wish to take the bait/fishing - in the ending, fans can know that after seeing the heroine being counter-attacked and immediately becoming fans, this kind of success is not success, it is just a short-lived craze and luck), the one on the car”Chariot Brand“ symbolizes that the heroine has the ability and strength to be a live broadcast host, but because she is too tough and aggressive in pursuing her goals, this is a sign of unnecessary trouble, which is why there will be a reaction later.Killing the male fans of the heroine is like the heroine not listening to her partner's advice to stop such a show, so that she does not consider others in the process of pursuing the success of the live broadcast program. Therefore, when her partner decides to leave in the plot, the heroineShe still uses her own radical approach to pursue the success she wants.

The prophecy of the chariot for such a person is hidden in ”reversed%, because when a person originally has the strength, ability and momentum to achieve success, but lets the chariot deviate from its original track, it will overturn.In the story of "The One Who Will Take the Hook/Fishing", the heroine's partner actually symbolizes the sphinx in front of the chariot on the card. The sphinx, one black and one white, symbolizes the issue of binary opposition.On the other hand, just like the carriage across land and water mentioned earlier, how to make a good decision among these dual choices will be the problem this card will face.This is also why the partner is the first person to ask the heroine whether to stop. He is giving the heroine an important reminder in her destiny that she can control herself and stand up. But in the end, the heroine still chooses to destroy this balance and doMake a decision that you regret.
