He saved his parents who were killed in a car accident; he took the exam three times in his previous life before he was admitted to a university, but this time he was admitted to the law department of a famous university for the first time, and graduated from the training institute with the first grade to become a prosecutor; He helped Xueba who interrupted his studies due to physical reasons in his previous life; he made people who spent 10 years to clear their grievances in the previous life to be innocent now; he invested in social networking apps that would become popular in the future...
On the one hand, Kim Hee-woo keeps hanging up, and on the other hand, Kim Hee-woo has been accumulating revenge. He is not fighting alone, decent men around him are willing to follow him, decent girls all have a good impression of him, they include politicians, second-generation chaebols, fellow prosecutors, lawyers and journalists... ...Kim Hee Woo incorporated them into his own faction and formed the Avengers with him at the core.
"My Life Again" basically follows the routine of the rebirth text, so some viewers criticized the show as "old-fashioned". Even Lee Joon-ki himself once rejected this script. He felt that Kim Hee-woo played a lot of "beautiful and tragic" counter-attack roles, "I am worried that as an actor, I will leave a given impression on everyone, and I feel that I can only play the role. such roles". Although Lee Joon Ki ended up taking the show, to be honest, Kim Hee Woo's character was not a breakthrough.
The real highlight of "Life Again" lies in its villain. Although there are thousands of reborn articles in China, due to different national conditions, few public officials are the protagonists, and the creators have also avoided political themes. Capitalist Korea has no such concerns. After all, according to our political textbooks, capitalist politics serves the chaebol, so it is not surprising that there are vicious bad guys in Korean politics. Zhao Taixie in "My Life Again" is a typical epitome of the madness of power; the process of Kim Hee-woo fighting Zhao Taixie is the process of the disintegration of the mad power of the little people.
At the beginning, Kim Hee-woo summoned Zhao Tae-sub, and Zhao Tae-sub was full of self-confidence, but he didn't take Kim Hee-woo in his eyes at all, as if the man sitting opposite was a cat and a dog. He said to Kim Hee-woo, "If you want to destroy me, you should first destroy the system that was made for me."
Why is Jo Tae Sub so crazy? In the political arena, he is known as the "King Maker", and only those he supports may ascend to the presidency; at the same time, he also holds the black material of many politicians, including the president's. Therefore, if he dares to yell at the president after closing the door, the president can only obey. He said to the president: "In the future, please understand politics in this way. This country has Zhao Taixie first, and then the president is born."
Equating Zhao Taixie with the hope of the country, and supporting Zhao Taixie is equivalent to patriotism. Naturally, Zhao Taixie is above the law and the system. If he violates the law and discipline, he will not be brought to justice, but modified, distorted, Trample the system to bless Jo Tae Sub.
But there is no savior in this world at all, no matter how many high-sounding rhetoric Zhao Taixie seeks for his absolute power, such as "as long as the people live a good life, as long as this becomes strong" - it's all a lie! Absolute power leads to absolute corruption, and it leads to the satisfaction of selfish desires, that is, the same party fights against differences, it is the eradication of dissidents, and it is all-inclusive. Therefore, Zhao Taixie will not apologize for the little people he hurts, he said: "Someone has to sacrifice, I don't care about the dust on my body... In the process of becoming a big thing, there will be some filth on my hands. "
"My Life Again" is a great drama, and Kim Hee-woo's performance is second, and the biggest cool point is that he actually wants to fight Zhao Taixie.
Therefore, cool dramas are cliché but useful. The shuang drama's punishing evil and promoting good are in line with the audience's most simple sense of justice; the protagonist's hearty counterattack and revenge also let the audience's emotions have a hearty catharsis. So even if you know that cool dramas are often clichéd and shallow, it is almost a fantasy, but cool dramas are a hypothetical cure for real predicaments. Sometimes to endure hard times, just need a little imagination, a little hope.

When he thinks that he has all kinds of ironclad evidence, he can bring down the corrupt political giant Zhao Taixie (played by Li Jingrong), but unexpectedly, Zhao Taixie can deal with himself as easily as pinching an ant. The witness was kidnapped by Zhao Taixie's subordinates, and he was beaten down by a killer sent by Zhao Taixie, injected with a mixture of alcohol and drugs, and thrown from a high-rise building.Kim Hee Woo (Lee Joon Ki) fights with Jo Tae Sub (Lee Kyung Young)
At this moment of certain death, a "herald from the underworld" appeared, and she could bring Jin Xiyu back to life on the condition that Jin Xiyu would eradicate Zhao Taixie, "It's too late to punish him in hell, let him taste hell in this world. Taste it."Kim Hee Woo meets 'hell messenger'
In a flashback, Jin Xiyu returned to the age of 18, and the journey of rebirth/counterattack began.He saved his parents who were killed in a car accident; he took the exam three times in his previous life before he was admitted to a university, but this time he was admitted to the law department of a famous university for the first time, and graduated from the training institute with the first grade to become a prosecutor; He helped Xueba who interrupted his studies due to physical reasons in his previous life; he made people who spent 10 years to clear their grievances in the previous life to be innocent now; he invested in social networking apps that would become popular in the future...

Therefore, if he dares to yell at the president after closing the door, the president can only obey. He said to the president: "In the future, please understand politics in this way. This country has Zhao Taixie first, and then the president is born."
Cho Tae-sub threatens the president
Jo Tae-sub's influence has penetrated into various departments of the Korean Public Prosecution Law, and he has a secret organization that holds regular gatherings. The party was filled with "big names" in politics: current and former executives, members of Congress, the attorney general, and even the president of the Supreme Court, at several round tables. Everyone sat down for more than 30 minutes, but no one moved the chopsticks, because Zhao Taixie hadn't come yet. When Kim Hee Woo first attended the party, he was stunned by this scene, "Like domesticating an animal, in order for everyone to remember, he is the master here."Zhao Taixie covers the sky with one hand
Zhao Taixie's theory is: in order to build a better country, there must be a common goal; to achieve a common goal, there must be a strongman who organizes the top talents in the political world - this strongman is him, Zhao Taixie. Many high-level political circles in South Korea agree with Zhao Taixie. They believe that "the parliamentarians have made plans in order to unify the whole country, and they have gathered the strength of all walks of life. You are serving Zhao Taixie now, which is equivalent to patriotism." Equating Zhao Taixie with the hope of the country, and supporting Zhao Taixie is equivalent to patriotism. Naturally, Zhao Taixie is above the law and the system. If he violates the law and discipline, he will not be brought to justice, but modified, distorted, Trample the system to bless Jo Tae Sub.But there is no savior in this world at all, no matter how many high-sounding rhetoric Zhao Taixie seeks for his absolute power, such as "as long as the people live a good life, as long as this becomes strong" - it's all a lie!

In the process of becoming a big thing, there will be some filth on my hands. "
Big people don't care about the sacrifices of little people
In this way, Zhao Taixie completely rationalized evil. He can do evil in a grand manner, but he cannot do evil without heaven, because he is the sky, and he is the greatest law."My Life Again" is a great drama, and Kim Hee-woo's performance is second, and the biggest cool point is that he actually wants to fight Zhao Taixie.
Warning at the beginning
Frankly speaking, if the "system tailored for the powerful" is not used as a bone-scraping cure, Kim Hee-woo's victory is only temporary; it's just that the audience knows that even such a "temporary" is difficult to achieve in real life. At this time, cool dramas are needed. Ten thousand years is too long. We just want to fight for the justice of the day and night. Only the justice in cool dramas can take effect immediately, and the little people can "safely" fight to the end.Therefore, cool dramas are cliché but useful. The shuang drama's punishing evil and promoting good are in line with the audience's most simple sense of justice; the protagonist's hearty counterattack and revenge also let the audience's emotions have a hearty catharsis. So even if you know that cool dramas are often clichéd and shallow, it is almost a fantasy, but cool dramas are a hypothetical cure for real predicaments.
