Corruption, unspoken rules, and lawlessness in power, even if you want to check it.
This is the prosecutor with supernatural power in the Korean judicial system.
South Korea is a country with a separation of powers, with the Executive Yuan, the Legislative Yuan, and the courts respectively in charge of the executive, legislative, and judicial branches, and operate independently and supervise each other.
The amazing thing is that although the Korean prosecutor's office is subordinate to the Executive Yuan, it is an independent department. Not to mention the superiors, even ** has no right to interfere with the prosecutor.
Therefore, the prosecutor has great authority, with the right to prosecute, the right to prosecute, and even the highest priority command.
It is said that absolute power breeds absolute corruption, so today I will introduce a movie that exposes how dark the Korean political and legal system is-
"The King".
Park Tae-so was born in the countryside of Mokpo, his mother ran away from home because of his father's cheating, and his father was an idle gangster.
Maybe it's influenced by her father, Tae-so's sister fell in love at a young age, and Tae-so got into trouble and got into fights every day at school.
Until one day, Tae-so saw his father, who usually showed his teeth and claws, kneeling in front of a prosecutor who looked weak, and begged for mercy in a low voice......
At this moment, Tae-so's belief in the king of force completely collapsed, and it turned out that this is power, and this is the real king.
For this reason, Tae-so decides to study hard and become a prosecutor in the future.
Since then, Tae-so has been angry and admitted to university.
And through hard work, he successfully passed the bar exam and became a prosecutor.
You may not have any idea about the Korean bar exam, but from 1963 to 2004, the pass rate of the bar exam in South Korea was less than 3%, and only two and a half out of 100 people passed. Roh Moo-hyun, as a former ** in South Korea, also spent ten years taking the bar exam seven times to pass the bar exam, so the Korean bar exam was complained about as "hellish difficulty".
passed the judicial exam, which can be called a leaping dragon, Tae-so has become a sweet spot in the eyes of the matchmaker, and the threshold of the family is about to be trampled by the matchmaker.
In the end, Tae-so and a Baek Fu-mi met each other and got married.
It is said that starting a family and starting a family has a family, but this career has not improved. thought that after becoming a prosecutor, he would be able to get a promotion and a salary increase, marry Bai Fumei, and reach the pinnacle of life, but in the end, he was just a grassroots prosecutor in a small place, and he was faced with countless files and countless trivial ...... all day long
But Tae-so knows that all he lacks is a chance.
Soon, this opportunity came, and Tae-so discovered an anomaly in a ** case. A teacher ** female student, under all kinds of conclusive evidence, finally lost a little money and reconciled, and the teacher continued to get away with it.
At this time, Tae-so, who is still full of justice, decides to investigate, and just as he finds evidence and prepares to bring the teacher to justice, his senior or his boss Yang Dong-chul finds Tae-so. Let him stop pursuing this case, it's all closed, what's the point of continuing to pursue it?
As long as Tae-so agrees to stop the investigation, Tae-so can be transferred from the local to **.
For a while, Tae-so fell into a tangle, but the appearance of a person at this time completely changed Tae-so. This person is the most powerful prosecutor general - Han Qiang-sik.
Feeling Tae-so's dilemma, Han Qiang-sik completely shredded Tae-so's psychological defense line with just a big bi-bag and a sentence.
When you become a prosecutor, do you think that the whole world is yours? Throw away useless self-esteem, justice, and old-fashioned ideas. Finally climbed here, do you want to go back? ”
Yes, I have worked hard for so long, isn't it just to become a prosecutor, isn't it just to get the rights I have dreamed of?
Now that the road to heaven is in front of him, of course he must grasp it.
hugged Han Qiangzhi's thigh and bet on the ** candidate. One person gets the way, the chicken dog **. Tae-so is also like a hanger, and his official fortune is prosperous.
After the success, Tae-so was blinded by Qian Quan, and in addition to eating and taking cards, he also cheated on female stars, which directly led to his wife divorcing him.
It's okay without his wife's support, but Han Qiangzhi was also implicated because of his fellow villager and friend Choi Doo-ri.
The fact that the teacher was not punished by the law made Tae-so angry, and Doo Ri helped him break the teacher's leg and let out a vicious outlet.
At that time, Douri was a member of the Wild Dog Gang, and the biggest boss behind the Wild Dog Gang was Han Qiangzhi, and the Wild Dog Gang had been doing some shady things for Han Qiangzhi.
Later, Dou Ri left the Wild Dog Gang to work alone, encroached on the territory of the Wild Dog Gang, and also shared Han Qiangzhi's cake.
Han Qiang-sik was implicated in order to rectify Dou Ri, and Tae-so, who was inseparable from Dou Ri, was implicated and became an outcast.
After a period of time when his family is broken, his career is at a low point, and his safety is threatened, Tae-so decides to pick himself up.
Joining forces with Ahn Hee-yeon, another prosecutor who is investigating evidence of Han Qiang-sik's crime, he decides to fight back and bring down Han Qiang-sik's ......
From this film, we can get a glimpse of the dark corruption of South Korea's political and legal system.
Relying on the power in their hands, they can act recklessly, and the tricks they play are guaranteed to make you unheard of and unseen. There is only what you can't think of, and there is nothing they can't do.
There is a memorable scene in the film, when it comes to ***, the prosecutor will choose his favorite candidate to stand in line.
And because the prosecutor has great authority, it is easy to know what black material or weakness the candidate has.
If the candidate chooses to cooperate with him, he will be happy to share the results after he is successfully elected.
As for the candidates who are uncooperative and hostile forces, then they will try their best to search for relevant black materials, hand them over to reporters, and do their best to discredit each other.
If you have watched "House of Cards", you must be familiar with this method, and it is even extremely common in political circles.
And the evolution of the relationship between Tae-so and Han Qiang-sik is, in a sense, also a politically correct evolution. At first, they came together because of common interests, and later because of the relationship between Dou Ri, Han Qiang-sik's interests were damaged, so Tae-so and Han Qiang-sik **, and finally Tae-so and Han Qiang-sik started a confrontation.
In a word, there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests.
At the end of the movie, Han Qiang-sik fell, Tae-so won, and he also participated in the ** election.
Although it is not clearly stated whether Tae-so was actually elected, it should be inferred according to the plot.
But after so much political darkness, can Tae-so stick to the justice in his heart?
Will he not distribute benefits to his wife, prosecutor An Xiyan?
Can we really do what we say in the election campaign for the benefit of the people?
It seems that the result is a victory for the people, a victory for the righteous side.
But in fact, it is the victory of power and discourse, and behind it is the darkness that no one knows.
The movie is already so dark, it is said that the movie is ** in life, but what about reality?
Don't dare to think about it, don't dare to think about it at all.
