Art comes from life, and the life that one has actually experienced can provide creators with inspiration and passion, enabling actors to forge characters with artistic explosive power.
Kate and Martin's rehearsal sessions not only helped them become familiar with their parts but also gave them a chance to experience life and enhance their artistic pursuit.

Martin was a dedicated actor, also passionate about his artistic pursuit, willing to make personal sacrifices for the art of performing.
The only problem was that in most scenes, he was extremely passive, the rhythm entirely controlled by the female lead, Kate.
Approaching midnight, Kate struggled to get up, preparing to leave.
