I haven't seen Kim so-hyun on TV for a while, recently he came out with a new drama, the reputation is not bad, and his acting skills have once again been praised by everyone, this drama is-
"Someday"
The drama has only 8 episodes in total, and it has a high score of 8.2 on Douban just after it was launched.
The story is based on the BBC drama series Justice, which tells the story of two men fighting fiercely over the murder of a woman.
Kim so-hyun plays a college student, Kim Hyun-so, who becomes a suspect in a murder case due to a one-night misunderstanding.
Shen Zhonghan, played by another protagonist in the play, Cha Shengyuan, is the lawyer who helps the college student defend.
At the beginning, Hyun-soo rides his bicycle comfortably on the path to the classroom in the form of a cloud riding a fog, and the first impression that comes most as the beginning of the first episode is the film's photography and production, which really has a cinematic texture.
Hyun-soo receives an invitation from a friend to attend the party, but he doesn't have enough money to take a taxi, so he decides to sneak away from his father's taxi for a living.
Hyun-soo was driving a taxi on the street, ready to stop on the side of the road to look at the navigation carefully, when a woman got into the car.
The woman did not react when she heard Hyun-so explain that the car was not open during breaks, and even threatened to report the refusal to take the passengers. Hyun-soo is afraid of being caught stealing his father's car and can only respond to the woman's request.
Under the aimless driving, the fanaticism and passion slowly appeared. Hyun-soo went to the woman's house and began to drink and chat.
The moon is swaying, the lights are red and green, and the emotions are confused.
As Hyun-soo prepares to leave, she finds the woman collapsed on the bed. At first he thought he was just asleep. However, when he touched the woman's back, he found blood and wounds on his back, and Hyun-soo's fearful emotions exploded.
He aimlessly sorted out the "blood stains" and even hid the "murder weapon" in his arms, ready to escape in a taxi.
Coincidentally, on the way back, he met the traffic police on duty, and Hyun-soo, who cooperated with the drunk driving test, encountered a lack of power and needed to go to the police station for blood testing. His real test has only just begun...
The uncle of the woman's next door saw Hyun-soo's escape and came to the police station to testify. The description of the uncle and the "murder weapon" found by the police on Hyun-soo's body also coincided with the size of the wound on the woman's body, and Hyun-soo was convicted of "murder".
Beyond the plot, Kim so-hyun vividly interprets the fear and panic of college students when they encounter a crisis. The trembling of the eyes and limbs shows the despair of the protagonist and the impact of the extreme reversal of events.
The first episode explains the background, the pace is fast, only 50 minutes, explains many things, and no shot of the whole episode is superfluous.
By the second and third episodes, the pace of the plot has become slower, and the characters have appeared one by one.
All three lawyers had a clear conscience at first, but the later changes in their growth made this conscience change subtly.
The second and third episodes of the prison scene make the male protagonist almost become mentally broken, and then in the fourth episode, Hyun-soo can't understand the sentencing transaction, and compared with the first episode, Hyun-soo has given up the hope of defending himself.
The fourth episode, the longest and most exciting episode of the show, criticizes the professional ethics and humanity of the so-called elite lawyers.
Xu Xiuzhen (played by Li Xue) is a rookie lawyer who does not know what purpose he snatched the case for, but he does not even do a little basic homework, does not go to see his client at all, and even proposes a sentencing deal with the prosecutor.
From misunderstanding to case filing, the male protagonist Xianxiu went to one abyss after another.
His own inability to resist, the helplessness of the trial and the scolding of the prison guards made this prosperous college student gradually lose hope for himself and his life.
Another lawyer, Mr. Shin Chung-han, was inspired by the female journalist to pay attention to some key evidence that was suspicious. For example: two knives missing, left-handed stems.
The episode develops to find the real murderer, which is the man the woman meets at the gas station at the beginning. But this drama is secondary, and the meaning that really wants to express is far more than just being a good person.
What this drama really satirizes is the contradiction and conflict between procedural justice and substantive justice, the judicial person and the rotten judicial system that rot into the marrow of the bone.
The intercocourse of the judiciary completely ignores the importance of procedural justice for the sake of convenience and profit.
The police do not arrest the murderers, the lawyers do the murders, which is the best irony of the judicial system.
The importance of procedural justice has safeguarded the fairness of every citizen by law protection and legal sanctions.
However, the judiciary has been invaded by capital and public opinion, followed by packaged judgments and countless civilians who have been "tried".
Kim So-hyun's moving interpretation shows the events in its entirety, while also portraying the tragic fate of the protagonist as a college student who is forced to face such a dark thing.
He has gone from unbelievable to forced acceptance along the way, during which emotional changes and personality changes are vividly displayed under Kim So-hyun's good acting skills.
The drama has a cinematic texture and has been well received since its launch.
The children's shoes of the recent drama famine, you may wish to go to see, I believe you will not be disappointed.
