It tells the story of a group of thieves similar to Liangshan heroes fighting against the local tyrants and evil gentry in South Korea, where the monarch is in power and the rebels are in power. But there are quite a few places worth complaining. The plot is quite solid, and the transition is very smooth, especially the plot that shows the butcher played by Ha Zhengyu from an honest and responsible low-level poor to be forced to Liangshan step by step, the arrangement is quite reasonable. The setting of the role of the butcher can be regarded as tenable, but the director seems to have too much ambition in order to show the poor people under the tyranny at that time resisting all beings. Compared with Lin Chong in "The True Color of Heroes" starring Tony Leung Ka Fai in the earlier years, it is much better. The plot that was forced step by step with no way out was completed in one go. In comparison, the structure of the drama "The Pirates of the People" could not support the director's ambition.
I think you can learn more about the ways of "Water Margin". It was very difficult for officials to force people to rebel in ancient times when obedient people ruled. It is necessary to constantly open up the dark side of the society at that time, so that the audience will feel that in addition to rebellion, even death is possible problem, that's it.
Ha Zhengyu's performance is still good, and the small movements similar to Zhao Si's face cramping also make the character a lot more real. It's just that the villain grew up with contempt and oppression by the family, and the first part shows the way the villain grows in a twisted family and becomes bloodthirsty. Nephew's tragic figure? This transformation is too blunt, but the actor is very handsome, and I feel that his facial features are unbelievably refined.
