Recently, I watched the drama of the second princess of the domestic entertainment resource coffee, and then went to the next door to watch the drama of the second eldest daughter of the National Intelligence Institute of Korean drama resources, the difference is really too big! "Flowers Blooming at Night".
Let's talk about the ratings of this drama in South Korea first, the champion of MBC TV ratings is "Red Trim with Sleeves" starring Lee Jun-ho in 2023. Lee Jun-ho also won the Baeksang Grand Appreciation Emperor with the protagonist and became the new husband of thousands of girls. And the ratings of the finale of the last episode of "Flowers Blooming at Night" surpassed "Red Trim on Sleeves" in one fell swoop, refreshing MBC's ratings. So, what is the situation with such a 12-episode TV series? 
1 Miss Korea, the queen of comedy Lee Ha Ni finally created her own irreplaceable name Lee Ha Ni, maybe many friends are not familiar with it, but I have seen the Korean movie "Extreme Occupation", right? She played the policewoman in it. This performance allowed her to see her comedy talent, and then starred in "Bloody Priest", partnering with Kim Nam-gil. This drama also became the crown of the eyes at that time because of its funny and handsome style. And the funny performance of the absolute heroine in "Two-Faced Woman" gives full play to Li Hani's unique comedy ability. This time, she took over the play 6 months after giving birth, and trained in martial arts for this purpose, and finally presented a perfect performance to the audience. 
In fact, Li Ha Ni's comedy is different from the style we usually understand. Not only is she not fat, she is not ugly, she is also Miss Korea, and her family is a proper Korean **, for example, her father used to be the deputy director of the Korean National Intelligence Agency, and her uncle was the speaker of the South Korean National Assembly. In our words, this is a proper resource coffee. It's not the daughter of the capitalist who wants to act, but the daughter of the ruler who wants to act. The problem is that this resource coffee seems to be different from the resource coffee of internal entertainment. After her debut, she was a beauty pageant, singing and filming, and she was very diligent, but she was not popular. It wasn't until I met "Extreme Career" that I began to find my own style. The film and television dramas I mentioned above must go to make up classes, they are all high-quality. In this "Flowers Blooming at Night", she also continued her comedy style, combining comedy and beauty so well that it was surprising. Most of the time, comedy is usually more or less related to playing ugly, but when it comes to her, it can be elegant or funny, which does not prevent her from setting up a variety of characters, and she will not feel offensive when watching it, and she will feel full of positive energy. 
2The reason why I feel full of positive energy has a lot to do with this plot. "Flowers Blooming at Night" is about a grieving widow. Originally, she lived with her brother, and her brother saw that she was talented, so he taught her martial arts, but unfortunately in North Korea, a feudal cave, she could not show her talent to the world. And one day, her brother disappeared for no reason, and the relatives who took care of her at that time took it upon themselves to marry her to a ** son. The sad part is that when she was about to cross the door, her husband hung up. However, she still married as a widow as promised. The environment in which she married was also very sad. The mother-in-law pays attention to three obedience and four virtues, and is very harsh, and dreams of using her daughter-in-law to earn a chastity archway, so she often puts forward some requirements for chastity martyrs. For example, it is already common sense not to go out and see no people, and when she does something wrong, she will run to guard her husband's tablet without eating or drinking, and punish her at every turn for her walking and talking standards of a martyr who is not chaste enough. And her father-in-law is more hypocritical, on the surface he is very polite to her, and often asks her mother-in-law not to be too harsh on her, but, in fact, her father-in-law is the one who presided over the murder of her brother behind the scenes, but she doesn't know, and she is grateful to her father-in-law for helping her find her brother all the time. If the story is just like this, it is the story of an ordinary ancient widow who was devoured and mutilated by feudal etiquette. It is the routine of the Taiwan tragedy. It doesn't appeal to today's young people. But the heroine is Li Hani, and the style of painting has changed. 
This heroine is actually like a two-faced woman, day and night are different. was abused by his mother-in-law during the day, and ran out to be a thief at night, similar to Robin Hood and Zorro. They went to the homes of the rich to rob their homes, and then delivered the stolen rice, grain, and other things to the poor people's homes. It's okay to do anything, and save a little girl who is going to be sold by her father as gambling money on the side of the road. This setting is more hilarious. It is completely in line with the trend of today's big heroines. Because, in the past, the heroes we saw were all male heroes, but this time, they have been replaced by female heroes. Isn't it fresh. 
So, the question is, since she is strong in martial arts and can help so many ordinary people, why didn't she leave her in-law's house? Originally, she had never met her dead husband, and she had no feelings at all. It turned out that the feudal etiquette of North Korea had penetrated deep into the ground, and if she left, she could only flee and not be able to live an upright life. It didn't matter, the important thing was that she was afraid that her brother would not find her if he came back. Just for the sake of family affection, she obviously has the ability to live well, but she is willing to fall into the feudal in-law's family, isn't the image of this girl great? Obviously living in the abyss, but always sheltering others from the wind and rain. The heroine met the male protagonist in the process of going out again and again. This TV series is similar to "The Great Conductor" in that although the domineering president wants to make a difference, he can still only watch the big heroine solve all the problems by herself. That is, sister without you, she lives very handy, and the indispensability of the domineering president in the world of the big heroine is broken, and the rest is no longer the unequal relationship between the two sides of redemption and redemption, but to talk about it on an equal footing, the question of love or not love. This angle is the determination that the heroine of domestic entertainment has always lacked. It is a trend towards true equality between men and women. 
3 TV series' criticism of feudal etiquette, in addition to positive energy, is a particularly good point to watch. In addition to the heroine, there is also a famous widow in the capital, and her mother-in-law told her to commit suicide for the sake of chastity archway. In fact, she already had her own sweetheart. They are both in prison, but they don't want to say each other's names, and the heroine promises to save them separately and let them leave, but neither of them wants to abandon each other and survive. Moreover, the dilemma that the woman said is actually the dilemma of the heroine, and it is also the dilemma of countless widows living under feudal etiquette: I am a widow who has escaped, if I leave, I will never see the light, and I will hide **, can I still have a life to speak of? In the end, the heroine finds a way to help them, making others think she is dead, and then she flies with her sweetheart. 
The TV series attacked the feudal etiquette in the suppression of women's nature in a relaxed way, and scolded the feudal ethics and morality with a smile. may be because of this clever comedy technique, and the integration of appearance and love, it has been recognized by Korean audiences. I also deliberately waited until the end of the TV series to recommend it, and I couldn't stop laughing from ear to ear after watching six episodes in a row. Friends who are in a shortage of dramas can watch it.
