Mind control divides people's consciousness into conscious and subconscious. Consciousness is responsible for processing logical information, while subconscious is responsible for processing emotional information.
Consciousness is located between information source and emotion, which transforms and intercepts information. Only those information that can be checked by consciousness can enter the subconscious, thus causing emotional fluctuations. Consciousness's ability to process information is related to experience. Experienced, strong in interception, poor in interception (including the accumulation of concepts), such as Meteor Garden, contains a lot of unrealistic information.
This information is filtered out in an adult's mind. Due to the huge number, the information sent by consciousness warning information sources is unhealthy. Thus causing resentment among adults (one-handed experience).
However, many students are inexperienced, which leads to the overload information entering the subconscious, causing emotional fluctuations, and the deliberately arranged information has hypnotic effect, which makes many students fall in love with this drama.
