Then on the 10th, there was a slightly less popular thriller and science fiction "Domination of Species". The previous popular dramas have not slowed down. On April 19th, the crime drama "Search Team Leader 1958" starring "The Variety God" Lee Je-hoon "On the line. The ratings of the first episode of
exceeded 10%, breaking the record of MBC golden soil drama. Although the subsequent update of this Korean drama hit the hit drama "The Queen of Tears", which caused some decline in reputation and popularity.
However, judging from the current audience ratings and word-of-mouth feedback, Lee Je-hoon's crime suspense drama "Search 1958" is currently the most passionate Korean detective story.
Because I have never watched the 1971 Korean hit drama "Search", I have no fixed impression of this prequel to "Search".
had a brief understanding of the crime drama genre of "Search Squad Leader 1958", and took it for granted that the content of the plot we saw should be a depressing plot of "large-scale crime" and "one person dies in one episode".
It’s because most Korean dramas in the suspense crime genre in recent years have followed this approach, so when I saw the first episode of “Search Squad Leader 1958”, I was stunned. It was like our Hong Kong crime action movies in the 80s and 90s. model!
The male protagonist Park Young-han, played by Lee Je-hoon, is a small policeman in the countryside. There are no big cases in this place. All he has to do all day long is catch cattle thieves.
As soon as this country boy appeared, he was dressed as a beggar, with a broken hat stuck on his head that could cover his eyes. He came to the small casino where the cattle rustlers were.
The process of catching the cattle thief was very funny. There was no tense confrontation. The police and thieves were trying each other out with each other. When the cattle thief wanted to escape, Park Young-han's friends captured his men.
And he himself went to deal with the cattle thief who wanted to escape alone, forcing the cattle thief to the open space where the cattle were tied, and kept retreating, and the cattle tied to both sides became conspicuous at this time.
kept adjusting his role, and suddenly kicked the cattle thief's "cock" with his cow hoof. Park Young-han looked at the cattle thief who fell to the ground with his "cock" in his hands, and said unkindly, You're not the only child in the family, are you? The awkward atmosphere at the beginning of
is very similar to the plot atmosphere of the era of Jackie Chan humorous action movies, with a retro familiarity.
Returning to the simple police station in the countryside, Park Young-han kept nagging his boss because he caught cattle thieves accurately and reported them to the newspaper. So now when he goes out to catch thieves, he must be fully armed and cover his whole face. Face, otherwise they will run away as soon as you meet me.
Because Park Young Han made great achievements in catching cattle thieves, he was transferred to the Jungnam Police Station in Seoul as a junior police officer.
Big cities are indeed different from the countryside. Not only are the roads bustling with traffic, but the people in the police station are also complicated. On the first day of reporting, Park Young-han, a stupid boy, was tricked by the veterans of the police station.
The cloth shop owner in the Zhongnan Market was injured by gangsters from Longmen Mountain, but no one in the police station dared to take the case. The dumbfounded Park Young-han was deceived into arresting these local gangsters.
Although Park Young-han was dumbfounded, he was very full of ideas. He knew that this was a group of local snakes with a large number of people, and he had no advantage in being single. So he went to a snake shop, brought a bag of live snakes, and went to meet these so-called snakes. A snake-bellied bastard.
Facing a group of gangsters alone, he still didn't feel any nervousness. He just watched this stupid young man holding a snake bag and tremblingly pulling out live snakes. Then he scared the gangsters and ran around, killing the one named Belly Snake. The gangster brought it back.
Unfortunately, what Park Young Han doesn't know is that the reason why these gangsters are so arrogant is because they have a protective umbrella above them.
When he worked hard to bring the snake back, the director pressed his head and wanted to put the gangster back. Park Young-han, who was not afraid of tigers as a newborn, quit, and almost had sex with his own director in the first episode.
It must be said that we are all too familiar with this kind of police crime + comedy content. We watched too many Hong Kong movies when we were young, and now we are basically indifferent. Even if Hong Kong movies now copy this kind of plot from the 80s and 90s, there are very few. Someone accepts it.
However, the Korean version of "Search 1958" makes people very interested in following it. The series replicates the essence of this ancient hot-blooded action police film, coupled with the core of trying to break the corruption, it is very interesting.
Although many people complained about the lead actor Lee Je-hoon, ever since he filmed the "Model" series, he has always acted in the same routine.
But he can handle this kind of relaxed and funny characters and plot very comfortably. No wonder some drama fans said that this kind of crime drama is Lee Je-hoon's comfort zone, and we love to watch him perform this routine.
With Lao Jin played by Li Donghui, this partner who looks very unreliable on the surface, but has a full sense of justice in his heart, joins forces to detect various cases and fight against evil forces. It makes people feel very happy. The only thing I have to complain about is that the update is too Slow down, it’s best to wait until it’s mature.
