A brief analysis of "Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok-joo" in my heart

At the end of 2016, I followed the Korean drama "Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok-joo". For me, the origin of watching Korean dramas comes from my liking for the actors, and secondly, the quality requirements of the dramas. This drama did not break my routine. At first, I really followed this drama because of Nam Joo Hyuk, and then I "miraculously" discovered that the heroine was the second female lead in "Cheese in the Trap" (I liked it very much, (has aura), and the favorability level keeps rising. The promotional stills that were sent out were also very small and fresh, with a full campus feel, which actually sparked some interest. When I really started to follow it, I found that the screenwriter did not use conventional techniques and caught the eye from the beginning. On the contrary, it uses a very plain way to describe the daily life of ordinary university students. But this is obviously too long for a sixteen-episode short drama. However, in the lines and plot settings in the play, I can appreciate the good intentions of the screenwriter. The male protagonist’s anti-conventional behavior and words successfully captured my curiosity (and of course his good looks). ). As for the character setting, this time Nam Joo Hyuk's character Jung Joon Hyung is obviously much better than Han Yi An in the previous "School 2015". Although he is also a swimmer, he is ordinary and is not the kind of person who can use his talent freely. Due to family reasons, he was fostered at his uncle's and aunt's house when he was very young. Although they were very kind to him and his cousin was also very humble, he was still a little more polite to his family. The screenwriter made a fuss about this. When Junheng discovered that the Christmas gifts every year (except for the first one or two years) were sent from abroad by his aunt disguised as his mother, he suddenly seemed like He fell off the altar and was at a loss. This affected the performance of the game and left a "jumping shadow". Zheng Junheng was more humane to Han Yi'an. He is fragile, sensitive, and can get injured and sick. In his sports career, he will have bottlenecks, confusion and embarrassment. He will also be nervous before the start of every game, and not every game can win the championship. But he is still like a simple big boy, joking and messing around with his friends and brother, honoring his parents and not letting them worry about him. Even if he made a mistake in the game and was dumped by his girlfriend, he still never gave up on his lover. ability. He uses his carefully crafted shell to bring positive energy to many people around him. But it is precisely this kind of him that needs someone to warm him and care for him. Junheng doesn't let outsiders see his inner scars, but it doesn't mean that he doesn't need warmth and care.

?Kim Bok-joo seems to have better control over Baek In-ha (the second female lead in Cheese in the Trap). I have been unusually strong since I was a child, so weightlifting is not a helpless move like those done for survival and for the dreams of my parents. She loves weightlifting, just like us in life, she simply and stubbornly likes something. However, even such a lucky person with talent and family support still has ups and downs. As an athlete, she is very proud and proud. She is handsome and confident on the sports field. But as a woman, she has never been confident. She knows that the male friends around her regard her as a good friend, and because of her carefree personality, few people will regard her as a woman. So when it comes to liking someone, she has low self-esteem, is sensitive and timid. Maybe because of this, when Jung Jae Yi (Joon Hyung's cousin) appears, his heart beats involuntarily. Of course, even for a talented athlete, she can't always have smooth sailing. As an athlete, she had to bear the expectations of her coaches, professors and father, work hard to gain weight, increase her weight, and participate in competitions. As a woman, she secretly went to Zai Yi's clinic without telling anyone, and applied for weight loss treatment in order to see him legitimately. But for some reason, when she deceived everyone and hid it from everyone, only Zheng Junheng knew the truth. From here on, the real intersection begins.

?

?Zheng Zaiyi is a gentleman. He has a tutor, is polite, approachable, and does not easily fluctuate in mood. He is a completely warm man.

But even such a perfect person also has shortcomings. Because he is too polite, he will make people feel polite and unfamiliar. He has an approachable appearance but makes it difficult to enter his heart. Zheng Junheng once said to him, "I also hope that you can be angry with me like other people's brothers. You can beat me and scold me, instead of just giving in to me." However, he became the thorn in Fu Zhu's life. First?, his thoughtfulness and attentiveness made Fu Zhu feel throbbing and tender that he had never felt before. It was also like this that made Yaying willingly stay by his side for ten years.

?Gao Yaying is a character very similar to our lives. She has a cheerful personality, a ghostly spirit, and a beautiful face, but she has a secret love (or an unrequited love, only Zai Yi doesn't know) for Zheng Zai Yi. For ten years, she has been silently accompanying him, helping him, and gradually becoming him. part of life. I have to say that Yaying is lucky and brave. Because liking someone may only require a momentary feeling without any reason, but it is not that easy to persist in unrequited love for ten years. By his side, everyone who knew them thought they were a couple. But others misunderstood, and she had to explain against her will. Seeing that he couldn't control his emotions because of another woman, she had to worry about whether he would get hurt. ,Get ill. It seems that because of such a person, my emotions are not that important, but even if I ignore it, it does not mean that it does not exist. I can find thousands of reasons for him, but I know in my heart that he only treats me as a good friend. , can’t be described as helpless and sad.

?Maybe it was the silent companionship and care of such a stubborn and strong girl that gradually made Zai Yi accustomed to her life, just like a spoiled child, heartless . Only after she was truly lost did she realize how indispensable she was.

?The character Song Shihao is a bit complicated. In fact, it is not easy to play this character in a way that makes people hate and feel distressed. As a rhythmic gymnast (artistic gymnastics for short), she embarked on this path because of her mother's dream. But at the beginning, it was impossible not to have a little love for her. The honor and pride that artistic gymnastics brought to her made her I have indescribable feelings for it. After her mistake in that competition, she felt like she was knocked out of the world and had to start all over again. She returned to Haner University and made frequent mistakes in practice. The coach was simply unreasonable to her. When I returned home, my parents were quarreling because of my studies in arts and sports. The family could not bear the burden. My parents wanted to divorce, and my sister didn't understand that she had to run away from home. Such a life must be very tiring, so Junheng became her only life-saving straw. She knew that it was unbelievable that she would vent her anger on Junheng because of her anxiety about the competition, so she apologized and wanted to redeem herself. She hoped that Junheng would still be the one who could tolerate, understand and warm her.

?As for Jin Bozhu, she actually hopes to have a friendly relationship, but who knows that there is Zheng Junheng between them. The friendship between women will deteriorate when there is one more man. Even though Joon Hyung and Bok Joo were just good friends at that time, jealousy was uncontrollable. That's why he did something puzzling, and this incident became an important turning point in Kim Bok-joo's life.

?The secondary characters in the drama are also very powerful, Bok-joo’s father is hard-spoken and soft-hearted, Uncle Bok-joo is funny, Lan Xi, Sun-ok are loyal and loyal, Tae-kwon is two-sided, and Uncle Jun-hyung is The tender care of the aunt, the guilt and longing of Junheng's biological mother, the encouragement and help from the coach, the professor... One plot connects the other, with different interpretations of friendship, love, and family affection. To this day, scenes are still unfolding before my eyes. Plain and simple, but it is life.

?Although this drama has many advantages, it cannot avoid some shortcomings. This drama is defined as a sixteen-episode short drama, but at the dividing point of the eighth episode, the previous plot seems to be dragging, and the emotional progress and changes in both the main and sub-plots are too slow. If Junhyung is sensitive and fragile inside, Bokjoo has low self-esteem and cowardice, which makes the emotional line between the two of them not clear enough. Then, other sub-lines can also be developed appropriately to promote subsequent plots.

I am very grateful to the director and screenwriter, as well as actors such as Nam Joo Hyuk and Lee Kyung Kyung for bringing "Weightlifting" to this winter, which makes people feel warm and tender.
