When we talk about Korean dramas, the chaebol element is absolutely impossible to ignore.
Especially when it comes to the theme of crime, the chaebol must be in collusion with the political circles in the play, behaving badly and committing many crimes.
However, a recent South Korean drama unexpectedly portrayed the chaebol as an active character and pushed them further to fight for justice for the poor.
Is it really possible?
South Korean viewers have sent a message to the masses through TV ratings: believe it or not, the show has undoubtedly become very popular.
The name of the drama is so straightforward, and the chaebol role is played by Ahn Puhyun, who showed excellent acting skills in both "Itaewon Class" and "Yumi's Cell Player".
This time, he played the role of a cynical chaebol of the third generation.
Pay attention to this core word, and have a cynical attitude towards the world.
The plutocracy's idea of justice for the poor is not unfounded, and the most well-known of them is undoubtedly "Batman".
Bruce Wayne is a big fan of Gotham, and it is with his money-making abilities that Gotham has made him the most sought-after superhero in DC.
Although Young Master Vane presents a *** image in the eyes of the public, he is actually disguised as a pig eating a tiger, which is just a cover-up.
But in this Korean TV series, that's not the case.
The actor Chen Lishou is actually a not very competent person.
In his father's eyes, this child was undoubtedly a disappointing young son, who was not only a drag on the family, but also a misbehaving and profligate loser.
Because Chen Lishou has shown a rebellious character since he was a child, his hand was directly put down, acting according to his own wishes, as long as it does not cause annoyance, he chooses to turn a blind eye.
Eventually, the kid really caused serious problems.
Chen Lishou's father belonged to the second generation of chaebols, and when his career was already smooth sailing, he began to venture into politics again.
He was interested in getting involved in politics.
On the very day he announced his candidacy for mayor, Chen was arrested on suspicion of harming others.
Ha ha? The incident immediately caused a sensation throughout the news industry, so what did Chen do about it?
It goes back a few days.
Since Chen Lishou did not get the attention he deserved, he never got involved in any important or minor affairs of the company, that is, since he did not have a job, he was more inclined to cause trouble with nothing.
Because he personally has a strong interest in real CS, he conducted a real simulation drill in the shopping mall he operated, and at the end of the drill, he happened to meet ** who was performing related tasks.
On the streets, torrential rain is pouring down, and Chen and his friends are preparing to leave after drinking.
* Strict control operations were carried out.
Unfortunately, ** was unable to catch the criminal after a full day of detention, which led to an unexpected confrontation with Chen Lishou. Although Chen Lishou grew up in a pampered environment, he was also the son of a practitioner. When he saw Chen Li pull out a sharp knife in his hand, he did not hesitate to seriously injure the other party.
Unexpectedly, Chen Lishou was mistaken for a gangster attacking a passerby by by an unwitting policeman in the process of outwitting the bandits, and as a result, Chen Lishou was ** and detained.
The news of the three generations of chaebols seriously injuring others spread widely on the Internet the next day, and just when the public was about to ruthlessly crack down on him and his father, the situation changed dramatically, realizing that they had caught the wrong person.
This thing suddenly became difficult.
If he openly admits his mistakes, the whole police department will be ashamed, and finally Chen Lishou's brother thinks of a good way to weigh it.
The police station was told that Chen Lishou was actually an inside line of **, and his main duty was to assist ** in successfully apprehending the criminal as an undercover agent.
Chen Li's hands and the several policemen who had caught the wrong person were confused.
However, once it gets to this point, there is no possibility of any recovery.
Chen Lishou didn't want to be a real police officer, he just planned to disguise himself as a police officer, but out of respect for his father and the consideration of the family business, he had to put on a police uniform.
In this way, the chaebol not only became a policeman, but also assumed the role of a criminal policeman.
Do you think this setting is a little frivolous and harmful, after all, this is a Korean drama?
Chen Lishou's previous life was addicted to alcohol and the pursuit of love, but now he needs to work to catch people in the field, which is simply a threat to his life.
What's even more troublesome is that the leader of his team, the police officer who wrongly arrested him at the time, actually put on small shoes for him every day.
In fact, this policeman is the heroine of this drama, Qiang Xian.
Qiang Hyun grew up in a family with a police background and has a deep hatred for **. When her father retired, she inherited his father's duties to uphold justice, only to unexpectedly encounter the darkest moment of her career and nearly lose a job.
Then, I glued this dog skin plaster and carried it with me wherever I went.
Can Chen really be seen as a not-so-stellar teammate? Not really.
The police are not experts in solving all problems, for example, if they know that the offender may be hiding somewhere, but without a search warrant, they cannot enter.
However, once the search warrant is issued, there will certainly be people who will all disappear.
Qiang Xian felt helpless and stood anxiously at the door, but Chen Lishou was able to use his aristocratic VIP status to enter and exit freely.
Then, he quickly performed a flying kick.
Therefore, from a certain point of view, Chen Li has a buff on his hands, he is walking *** His family has a deep background, he is taking the road of justice, and his family also has a lot of influence.
More importantly, Chen also has the ability to issue cash.
One day, the remains of a woman were found on the yacht, the deceased was a new employee of the modeling agency, and the cause of her death was very peculiar, with strangulation marks, drowning, and blunt stab wounds to the head.
After completing the surveillance investigation, the suspect was found, but the problem was that the suspect had certain background information, which made the suspect very cautious and afraid of making mistakes when investigating the case.
Chen Lishou said that this is not a problem at all.
Whatever the outcome, the first thing is to handcuff the person's hands to the silver bracelet, and even if this is not the case, we have our biological father as a final guarantee.
Although this is a lawless drama, you are actually a representative of the police, so it is also reasonable, legal and compliant.
Chen Li, with his unreliable means, actually succeeded in assisting ** to re-arrest the criminal, which made ** completely unable to have any intersection with him.
Only Chen Lishou is eligible to move up one more level.
It is in such an unexpected situation full of humor but always winning the first place that Chen Lishou and Qiang Xian gradually resolve the previous conflict and begin to sprout a spark of love.
However, Qiang Hyun has a savage girlfriend-type trait and will immediately take action in case of an argument.
Therefore, the core of love in this drama is a comedy based on not fighting and not knowing. Qiang Xian hates **, so he has a villain attitude towards the children of rich families. Chen Li was surrounded by many beautiful women, but he developed feelings for this woman who was cold to him.
Fundamentally, it's still a bloody drama of a domineering president falling in love with me.

The TV series "Date with the Devil", which was popular in China not long ago, was seen as an unexpected choice among Korean TV dramas in early 2024.
In fact, the ratings of "Chaebol x Interpol" are not particularly impressive, on the contrary, it has managed to more than double the viewership in the first two episodes.
You mentioned that the South Korean people have a strong antipathy towards the chaebols and frequently tease them in film and television works, but the dramas that depict the love story of the chaebol and Cinderella always seem to attract audiences.
Although the chaebol is traditionally seen as a villain, their performance still won the love of the audience if they were really to clear their minds and encourage them to fight and promote goodness.
Fundamentally, it's still hard to discard works that focus on overbearing CEOs.
