Focusing on the 2019 television drama Someday or One Day, a romantic idol series that incorporates elements of suspense and deduction, this paper takes the enigma of Chen Yun-ru’s death as its central narrative axis. It examines how screenwriting strategies and editing techniques continuously guide the audience toward a binary framework of“perpetrator”and“victim.” First, through an analysis of“character self-narration,”attention is directed to how the“unreliable narrator”produces narrative ambiguity and how discursive construction operates within the plot. At the same time, an examination of the screenwriting strategies in Someday or One Day shows how heightened visibility is assigned to potential“suspects,”prompting the audience to classify characters, apply labels, and identify clues within a complex investigative structure. Through narrative and editing misdirection, both the protagonists and the off-screen audience are repeatedly led to construct a“victim”identity in relation to Chen Yun-ru’s death. Finally, the discussion focuses on the formation of the“victim”identity. As the screenwriting and editing unfold the cause of Chen Yun-ru’s death, shifts in the distance between the narrator and the viewer are examined. By calling the subject into presence to articulate the meaning of a desire“to be killed,”the narrative encourages a renewed understanding, or reconsideration, of Chen Yun-ru’s character. This process allows a re-examination of the narrative significance of the“unreliable narrator“within Someday or One Day. |
