The first post in 2015 and i can't help it when i am reminded of the phrase from Pinocchio. It's a good drama and i love the chemistry of PSY and LJS so much that i'll love to watch it all over again. You can definitely search about it from wikipedia about the drama and what i want to share here is just a bit from that drama.
This phrase came out when they must choose between two news they must report at the time. One is a good one, while the other is a "must know" one. in that drama, a good one is a news for covering the bad guys in the "must know" news, so of course, a good news will make everyone eventually forget about the bad one but the pains remain.
the conversations is just like this
"sir, i have a good news and a bad news for you, which one do you want first?"
"of course, i want to hear the good news"
"the good news is that you got a VIP ticket to watch the big concert at xx (which i know you love it very much)"
"and what is the bad news?"
"i got the result of your health test and it says you have less than 6 months to live."
so, it's like you just got the plot-twist in your live and the happy news will just gave you euphoria for a while before the bad news, that is also a you must know news, comes. The question is for the viewer and the reporter at the same time. the message is that a must know news comes first and the reporter should report it first and no need to go along with the flow with happy news despite the rating. it is what it means in pinochhio.
and why i'm writing this?
yeah, i'm not reporter, and of course, not a good viewer too, i'm writing this just because.
let's see from the different point of view this time.
when the news isn't necessarily about you, how should you react? i mean, if you just got two contradictory news about other person you care about, which one should comes first? will the must know news becomes your very own secret or you will still tell it? you're not reporter, the news doesn't concern everyone but this person, it's the news for the one you care about whose life may changes because this one news, will this phrase from pinocchio be applied here?
