A poor woman wants to climb high and join the upper class society, so she resorts to tricks and deceives to achieve this. Is it wrong?
The recently popular Korean drama "Anna" tells us the answer.
This drama has only aired for two episodes, and the topic #KoreanDramaAnna# on Douyin has nearly 300 million views, making it very popular.
The heroine’s name is not Anna, but Li Yumo.
's family is in a difficult situation. His father runs a tailor shop to barely make a living, and his mother is mute.
The goals set for the college entrance examination were too high. If I failed twice, my academic qualifications would stop at high school. Because of his handsome appearance and good appearance,
got the opportunity to work for a rich and powerful daughter, and really saw the life and death of the upper class.
She secretly put on Qianjin's brand-name high heels. At that moment, her vanity was greatly satisfied.
then used Anna's name to start a life of pretending to be a rich second generation returnee from overseas, defrauding wealthy people, and bravely entering the upper class society.
Li Yumo is the type of woman that Koreans love to photograph most:
she is beautiful and ambitious, but she was born in poverty and has nowhere to show her abilities.
In order to climb out of the original mud pit, we had to grind our teeth and pick our hands, struggling in the gray area, enjoying the glory in front of others, but suffering behind others.
Xu Yingmei in " Falling in Love with the Female Anchor ", there are only two words in life, love can be thrown away freely.
Han Shuzhen in " Sky Castle " hides her name and pretends to be an elegant aristocrat.
In "Why Oh Soo Jae", Oh Soo Jae fights his way through the legal world where men gather.
When Koreans photograph these lower-class women, their essence is to photograph the subtle humanity under the solidification of class.
Li Yumo, the heroine of "Anna", has been teased about being poor since she was a child.
She was good at ballet, but because her family could not afford the tuition, she had to give up.
’s classmates secretly laughed at her: The family is really poor, and her mother is still mute!
Children as young as eleven or twelve already understand how hard it is to speak the word poverty.
later transferred to Seoul and met more and richer peers.
Li Yumo, who has a good reputation, lied that she was the second generation of a wealthy family who had returned from overseas, and that her father was doing business in the United States...
People around her exclaimed about her origins and praised her beauty.
The boys cheered and applauded when she introduced herself, scrambling to show her kindness.
It’s great to be Bai Fumei, surrounded by kind people and smiling faces wherever I go.
Li Yumo, who had been frustrated for a long time, tasted great sweetness.
even talked about her gentle and wealthy boyfriend taking her to study in the United States.
God is not as good as humans. Just before Li Yumo registered, her carefully disguised identity was exposed.
The boyfriend’s mother called her son and accused this woman of fake education, fake family background, and fake life.
The bright future that was within reach was instantly wiped out, and then came the bad news of his father's death.
Li Yumo, who was forced to grow up overnight, cut off his unrealistic fantasies and started working continuously for six years.
Finally waited for a turning point in his life: working as a servant for the daughter of a chaebol.
The working environment is glamorous, but in fact it is even more undignified than before.
The eldest lady seemed friendly, but she gave her a fake watch and admired her excited expression, as if she was playing monkey.
The boss is harsh and unkind. Just because she took a day off, he cursed her, which escalated to a personal attack.
The anger accumulated under the tired and numb life finally broke out.
She stole Qianjin’s academic certificate and passport and fled overnight.
later used the stolen English name "Anna" to disguise herself as an elite rich girl.
Li Yumo is pretty enough. Even if it is a high-end knockoff, she can still look authentic.
She is smart enough to get rid of those mechanical and monotonous jobs. She finally has time to plan a path to class advancement.
first used the degree certificate of Yale University to become a study abroad consultant.
Li Yumo, who had no experience, chose to take advantage of free consultations from study abroad institutions and process them independently before teaching them to students.
relied on the connections and experience accumulated as a study abroad consultant to get acquainted with university professors;
relied on his appearance and wealthy status to enter the university's lifelong education college and teach art history;
was introduced to the owner of an IT company who started from scratch, and successfully Becoming a boss lady;
In order to solidify her image as a wealthy daughter, she even paid to hire fake parents to attend the wedding.
With the help of her husband’s connections, she changed from a lifelong education college lecturer to a university undergraduate teacher.
From then on, there were celebrities talking and laughing, and there were no idle contacts.
Poor woman Li Yumo used carefully crafted lies to gain power.
Korean drama Three Thousand Evil Girls, this one by Li Yumo is particularly special.
is different from the love-minded heroine who turns to black for love, and she is also different from the arrogant and domineering female villain from a rich family.
This kind of evil woman is ambitious and has become a firm egoist in order to achieve her goals.
For example, Li Youmo chose to get married without hesitation even if he found out that her husband was buying fake goods to show his face. Of course,
is not because of love, but because of his status as a technology upstart and the owner of a listed company.
In order to achieve a class jump, marriage can be sacrificed or the so-called conscience can be erased.
is like the heroine Oh Soo Jae in "Why Oh Soo Jae".
As a gold medal lawyer in the industry, she has only one professional rule: never let her client go to jail.
It doesn’t matter what the truth is, or whether the other party committed a crime. The key is to win the case and maintain a perfect winning rate.
collected dirty information to attack competitors, and was promoted to a partner lawyer through inappropriate means.
handles sex scandals for romantic politicians, intimidates and lures girls, and talks harshly.
Wu Xiucai has only one goal: to climb to the top. The same is true for Han Shuzhen in
"Castle in the Sky".
She was originally Guo Meixiang, the daughter of an ox blood stall owner, but she pretended to be the daughter of a banker and claimed that her family had immigrated to Australia.
Lying about your family background is only the first step to getting married and getting promoted.
had to secretly separate her husband and his first love before he could fly up a branch and become a phoenix.
So such evil women are poor women, and they can only be poor women.
The lack of material foundation, the narrow channels for advancement, and the dark life at the bottom... are all the driving forces behind the evil of evil women.
Wu Xiucai's family was poor, and his father died early. Because he could not afford the tuition, he had to drop out of high school.
If you can't go to university, then sign up for courses at the Judicial Training Institute, which is similar to the university's continuing education college . Professor
was very discerning and recognized Wu Xiucai’s abilities and recommended her to an internship at a well-known law firm.
However, in this environment where elites are everywhere, Wu Xiucai has no academic qualifications and no background. Not only is he not taken seriously, he is also ridiculed.
When her bosses were having meetings, she had to wait aside to serve them tea and water.
A group of big men even called her "Miss", showing off the true qualities of a man unscrupulously.
In comparison, it is nothing if colleagues deliberately ignore themselves during a dinner party.
It is these "knife-like past" that created Wu Xiucai's ambition.
Han Shuzhen's father is an alcoholic and often beats his wife domestically.
As for the mother, she became increasingly neurotic under the influence of her father's fists, turning to use her daughter as a punching bag.
Perhaps it is because he firmly believes that a woman’s lack of talent is virtuous, or perhaps she is venting her grievances about being beaten by her husband.
When her daughter tried to change her destiny through reading, her mother obstructed her in every possible way and even tore up her books.
Having suffered enough from poverty, Han Shuzhen hated poverty, hated the poor, and hated the terrible "Guo Meixiang" in the past.
Rather than general evil women, I prefer to call them: poor women who do whatever it takes to climb up.
As early as twenty years ago, Korean dramas had this character.
Xu Yingmei, the famous evil girl in "Falling in Love with the Female Anchor".
In order to become a female news anchor, she did all kinds of bad things.
designed a news live broadcast accident to frame a competitor;
sabotaged another anchor's car brakes, causing the other anchor to have a traffic accident.
Men are stepping stones for her to climb up. The classic lines are as follows:
"It's hard enough for me to just take care of myself. I don't have any extra love to give to people who hate me."
Xu Yingmei to the rich and beautiful hostess Zhen What Shanmei said may be regarded as the common voice of evil women like them:
Is it because evil women are not kind, honorable, and upright because they don’t want to?
Looks, brains, abilities, courage... They have everything, but under the teasing of fate, they are trapped in their original background and struggle.
unfortunately accumulated too much and bottomed out.
A hard-won opportunity allows them to have a glimpse of the upper class society.
They didn't dare to face fate, so they grasped the only life-saving straw. As for morality, sincerity, justice... they could all be abandoned.
After all, these special qualities for the poor are insignificant in the world of the rich.
Korean dramas have produced villains in batches in recent years, especially the poor and bad heroine Li Yumo.
uses counterattack cool writing as its cover, but its core is class solidification.
Similar plots abound in "Anna".
For example, when Li Youmo asked for leave, his boss said the classic words of the master:
"You are lazy and stupid, which is why you are reduced to such a poor state today."
Poverty is the original sin, and poor people with desires are even more miserable. Guilty plus one.
The old man spoke with passion and spit, and in front of everyone, he scolded Li Youmo to the point of losing face.
Later, the pampered wealthy daughter came to her and asked: Am I pitiful?
talks about misfortune, but his tone is showing off.
One is a young lady who flew abroad just to have a spa treatment.
One is a migrant worker who is so humble that he is not even allowed to take a day off.
This is really the most ironic scene in the whole show.
Li Yumo’s friend, who has been working as a laborer for six or seven years, can only afford to rent a single room of a few square meters in Seoul.
A friend collapsed on the bed and sighed:
"You don't have to work hard to live, you will be rewarded."
As for Li Yumo himself, he wore high-end imitation goods bought from the wholesale market, and spent a lot of money to buy Yale Diploma.
can suddenly transform into a young lady who is of extraordinary origin in the eyes of the upper class.
I have to admit that South Korea is good at expressing class solidification and dares to express it.
In a super patriarchal society, women at the bottom are a group lower than men at the bottom.
Therefore, poor women naturally have stronger character tension.
They sharpen their heads, do evil things, use all their tricks, and make every move... just for a ticket.
The admission ticket is not life-long, and you will be kicked out if you are not careful.
Not long after Li Youmo married the new rich man, he met the daughter of a wealthy family, and he was frightened day and night from then on.
Wu Xiucai has the highest performance and earns the most money for the law firm, but he is still looked down upon by the die-hards on the board of directors.
Han Shuzhen entered a medical family, but because she could not give birth to a son, her mother-in-law never looked down upon her.
It is difficult for me to express my feelings towards them in one word.
Seeing them working hard, knocking out their teeth and swallowing blood, they finally stood at the top of the pyramid, on an equal footing with those who once looked down on them...
Knowing that they were walking on the edge of morality, they still couldn't help but ask: Isn't this okay?
