16 march:
I have to say that this is not the version I read, but it has that name. I read the webtoon version Save me: The most beautiful moment in life. I have to say that I discovered this whole saga on Saturday. And at that time I only knew that it was based on the music videos of the BTS band from HYYH, Wings and Love yourself, since they were the ones who created this whole series and on some notes that they composed. But I found out more and found out about this prequel to the series in webtoon format that I read yesterday.
I can only say that I can't wait to read the notes too. I didn't know what to expect from the book. But, honestly, I was surprised!! I had seen the videos the night before, thinking that I could understand this whole fictional world through them, but I was wrong. And it was the best decision to read this version. I just have to say that it was one of the most original stories and action I've come across in any book, and the fact that it's about teenagers and their lives and especially, the difficulties of being a teenager, of being understood, close bonds, love for friends, trauma, I have to say that a multitude of quite touching and sad themes were addressed, which honestly illustrate so well the life of a teenager, especially the one towards adulthood. That's why I wanted to enter this whole fictional universe, created by a band that I've known for years, but I'm only discovering it now.
I was very surprised when I found out about this whole universe that they created for us, to help us understand that no matter how hard teenage life is, or life in general, we have to continue because that day will come when EVERYTHING will be OK. But at the same time, I also learned from the book the SACRIFICE and LOVE for our friends, which especially during this period is colossal and manifests itself at the deepest level, because NOW is the moment in LIFE when WE ADOLESCENTS feel everything INTENSIVELY.
I have to say that my favorite character was Seokjin, because he didn't give up precisely because he loved his friends so much, despite the circumstances.. I also really liked Jungkook. I can't wait to read the notes, which are certainly much more full-bodied and have greater depth! But until then, I can say that I really enjoyed this reading and especially discovering this whole universe!!! And I confess, that I finally understand the music videos from that period of the band better after reading this comic!
My fav quotes:
‘Nothing changes…unless you change first.’
‘We can be happy when we’re together.’
‘You gotta breathe before you can think about anything, you know.’
‘It’s not over until it’s over.’
‘I’m not leaving you alone.’
25 march: Now I can say that I really read this version of Save me:)) I wasn't expecting this!! I thought it would be a webtoon but illustrated in an anthology following the YNVA model. But it seems that here this story of Jimin and Hoseok is simply stated, through the traumas they face, both having the illnesses caused by these traumas. Thus, we are somewhat presented with the moment when they meet in the hospital and they will both leave there at some point after they meet. But of course, the part where we are presented with the traumas they go through that determine their hospitalization are also well told, even if I already knew them from the notes. I already have 3 more anthologies.
Because there are no quotes here, I'll leave a few aspects that helped me understand the context:
‘According to Freud, dreams work on an anxiety-reducing phenomenon. Thus, the things that cause us anxiety in everyday life are expressed in dreams indirectly through metaphors and metonyms.’
