"Auxiliary Officer: The People Who Changed the World" aired less than half a year ago and ushered in a sequel again - "Auxiliary Officer 2: The People Who Changed the World"
This series is a new drama launched by JTBC this year, which is called the Korean version of "House of Cards" by enthusiastic netizens.
The American version of "House of Cards" tells the story of the president playing power between the palms of his hands and reaching the top
And "Auxiliary Officer" tells the story of Zhang Taijun, who has no background and no background, through various means, fights monsters and upgrades, and climbs to the top of power
Bajie was originally completely aimed at the reputation of the Korean version of "House of Cards", and the result was really extraordinary
The pace is so fast that every second is looking forward to and worrying about the next move of the male protagonist, and the amount of information in an episode is huge
At present, the second season has ended, and the bean review is still stable at a high score of 9.1, which really provides a correct demonstration of a burning drama and a cool drama
Director Guo Zhenghuan once directed a female workplace drama "Miss Hammurabi" that caused a hot discussion
Screenwriter Li Dari, although there are not many works, but he contributed to the 9.0 "Life on Mars" as soon as he shot it.
The male protagonist Lee Jung-jae, the box office elixir, the Korean Blue Dragon Award film emperor, after ten years of leaving the small screen, finally returned to the TV series with this drama
Known as a walking male hormone, even the pleats of the years can show a different charm ~ true appearance and strength!
As for the heroine, it is the sweetheart sister Shin Min'er who can melt the iceberg when she laughs
At that time, she became popular all over Asia because of "My Girlfriend is a Nine-Tailed Fox"
However, since her boyfriend Jin Yubin in 17 years was diagnosed with nasopharyngeal cancer, she temporarily left the show business circle and accompanied her to concentrate on treatment. With the stabilization of his condition, he gradually returned to filming
In addition to the two "facades", the supporting characters of this drama are also very eye-catching
There are the evil professional Jeong Woong-jin, Lee Il-riya of "The Road of The Third Stream", the strength veterans Kim Ka-so and Jeong Man-sik...
This lineup swings to that, proper quality assurance!
Then again, what exactly is an auxiliary officer?
Simply put, it is the "senior assistant + private secretary" of The Korean Congressman.
They are staff and think tanks behind government officials, responsible for everything except "Lazar" and are on standby 24 hours a day
When encountering special circumstances, the auxiliary officer also has to listen to and resolve the grievances of the local people
Even in emergencies, he acts as a temporary public relations and bodyguard for parliamentarians
Jang Tae-joon, played by Lee Jung-jae, is a member of the army of auxiliary officials
He graduated with the first place in the Police Academy and has served in the Police Investigation Brigade for many years, always active in the search frontline
Later, he gave up his police career and entered the National Assembly, becoming an auxiliary adjutant
A year ago, he was in charge of the deputies of the Song Hee-sup and Zhao Election Chambers, who were obviously at a disadvantage, and he was stunned to turn the tide at the last moment of the vote
In this way, with the help of Jang Tae-joon, Senator Song became a representative of the court
In the years that followed, Jang Tae-joon was highly regarded by Senator Song, but the real challenge had only just begun
This Song congressman is a straw bag politician at all:
Sloppy manners, snot-blown tissues thrown around in the car;
Disrespecting others, taking off their socks and kicking and scolding subordinates;
Later, it was also exposed to scandals such as suspected illegal elections and splits within the party;
There are also problems of people's livelihood that are difficult to cure and uncontrollable...
After that, Zhang Taijun was investigated by the prosecution, and his family was turned upside down, and he was almost treated as an outcast by Senator Song
This is a small trouble every few minutes, a big trouble in one episode, and the director doesn't give us a chance to breathe
But, then again, since Zhang Taijun is so shrewd and strong, why not enter politics himself, but turn to the background?
In fact, as Zhang Taijun's friend said:
No background, no backstage, no financial support, how is it possible?
Even though Jang Tae-joon has a clever mind and excellent abilities, his class and origin doom him to be difficult to enter the elite
Therefore, he was determined to save the country by curve, single-handedly pushing the deputies he assisted to the position of party representatives, and then starting his own "ambitions"
But at the same time, he is a principled and idealistic person, even in the evil and ugly political arena, he always maintains a moral bottom line
By the second season, the story escalated, and he climbed from the position of assistant officer to congressman
But that's not what he wants, he wants to stand in the spotlight and accomplish his goal of rooting out corrupt politicians
He took the lead in cutting off Song Xixie's right and left arm, set up a situation to send Li Changguo's corrupt materials to Zhao Jiaying, a rival of Song Parliamentarians; he also interfered with Song Xixie's decision-making and brought down Li Changguo in one fell swoop
Zhang Tae-joon then threatened Zhao Jiaying with a handle, asking him to help him fight against Song Xixie, by which time he had moved from behind the scenes to the front of the stage
But then came Song Xi-seop's counterattack: first he began to win over allies and establish relationships;
Set up a banquet to invite the old rival Zhao Jiaying to start a frontal attack on Zhang Taijun;
Finally, prosecutor Choi Kyung-chul was asked to investigate Jang Tae-joon's corruption problem...
For such a result, Zhang Taijun naturally expected it, but he did not admit defeat, still walked forward, even if he was crushed to pieces, he also had to stand at the highest point of power and change this dirty world
In his own words:
"Have a hesitant attitude towards everything, believing in the situation and not the person. Don't expose weaknesses, keep thinking and analyzing, and don't let your choices leave regrets. Then use all of this to turn the ideal into reality. ”
Although "Auxiliary Officer" is positioned as a power struggle theme, Ba Jie feels that it wants to show the inspirational spirit of the protagonist Zhang Taijun who does not succumb to reality and starts from the grassroots level for a lofty ideal
Although we have no choice in the face of reality, instead of sitting on the ground and lamenting, it is better to think carefully about how to catch up and fight for the life we want.
