Nowadays, many Korean dramas , especially emotional dramas, make the audience feel sweet in the early stage, and the second half of the story will make the audience tragically tragically, such as " Crash Landing of Love ", which staged the finale not long ago.
However, the drama "Itaewon Class" did the opposite. In the first two episodes of the broadcast, the male lead's tragic experience won the audience's tears.
Despite this, since the plot was launched, many people have found that although the male protagonist and the second female lead have indeed had a miserable life experience, there is another person who is even worse than them in the play. This person is Zhang Genyuan, the eldest son of the eldest son in the play.
The Missing of Father's Love
In the play, Jang Geun-won was born at the Golden Spoon, and his father, Jang Da-hee, is the head of the top Korean catering group. Compared with the protagonist Park Se-ro, his father is a subordinate of Jang Dae-hee and his status is very different.
But the relationship between these two father and son is completely opposite. Park Se-lo and his father depend on each other for life. The father has a good relationship with each other, and his father's education can be said to be very successful. Under his father's guidance, Park Se-lo grew up to be a kind and upright young man. He took his father as an example, and his father was proud of this son. His father was kind and filial to others, and he was envious.
In contrast, although Zhang Genyuan was born in a wealthy and noble family, his father was a business tycoon, and all actions were based on the priority of corporate interests. As the eldest son of the head of the eldest family, my father naturally wanted to cultivate Zhang Genyuan into his successor.
Moreover, although Zhang Dae-hee and Park Se-ro's father are superiors and subordinates and strive for the same goal, their life rules are different, so his father was very strict in educating Zhang Gen-won after he was young, believing in "a filial son under the stick". He is a typical image of a strict father. Zhang Gen-won has not enjoyed much love from his father since he was a child.
in the play Zhang Genyuan is completely a playboy. Such a person's ability is naturally not much higher, and his lack of ability naturally makes his father dissatisfied and then becomes more harsh. With Zhang Daxi's style of conduct, it is impossible for his son to get encouragement from him.
So Zhang Genyuan lacks fatherly love since childhood and rarely feels the care from his father. What he faces is just a mountain in his life.
In the plot of episode 10, the father unpredictably tidied up his son's tie and gave him a hug he had never had before. Seeing his father's concern for him made Zhang Genyuan, who had never felt the affection of father and son, feel very moved, and his eyes wet.
But Zhang Daxi's abnormal behavior also indicates that something amazing will happen. As expected, Zhang Daxi then betrayed his son, and all of this was for the benefit of his company.
is really suitable to describe Zhang Genyuan as "poorly born in the imperial family".
Humble love
In the cognition of ordinary people, rich second generations like Zhang Genyuan have never lacked women around them. Zhang Genyuan in the play must have a big head and show off his talents, which is the ideal lover of many girls.
"It's too easy to ignore what comes, but love what you can't get more." Zhang Genyuan, who is in a wealthy family, fell in love with Wu Xiuya, who never pretends to be a fake person.
Wu Xiuya is not used to Zhang Genyuan's various behaviors in school due to her growing environment. What's more, Park Se-ro's father, who has a father-daughter relationship with him, died in a car accident. The perpetrator was Jang Geun-won, which made Wu Xiuya's attitude towards Jang Geun-won rise to disgust.
and later the two worked together in the family. Wu Xiuya rose steadily with her own abilities, while Zhang Genyuan was in a high position and relied on his father's mercy. He repeatedly exposed the fact that he was not capable enough at work, which made Wu Xiuya look down on him even more.
But even such a woman who has been cold-eyed for ten years, Zhang Genyuan has also liked her for ten years, and this relationship is humble.
is different from Jang Geun-won, who cannot get married. In addition to Wu Xiuya, who has been with each other for ten years in his heart, Park Se-ro also meets Zhao Yinshu who loves herself to the point of going crazy. The two main female characters in the play all revolve around him, forming a sharp contrast between them.
When he revealed his dream to Wu Xiuya that she wanted her to sit in her co-pilot once, people realized that this playboy was actually a pitiful person.
pure functional role
In the Korean drama "Itaewon Class", several main characters Park Se-ro, Jang Dae-hee, Zhao Yinshu and Wu Soo-ah. These four people have very different personalities. The four of them represent four different types of people respectively. Their respective attitudes towards life made the audience very inspiring.
The character Zhang Genyuan does not show his life beliefs in the play, no fatherly love, no love, and no ability. He does not have anything else.
Zhang Genyuan is a purely functional character.
The beginning of the whole story is based on the campus bullying of his classmates when he was in school. Then there was a conflict between two father and son, and then there was a follow-up story.
And in the subsequent plot, Park Se-ro's revenge on Jang Da-hee was temporarily shelved due to various difficulties. When the two families were in a stalemate, it was Jang Geun-won who came forward to leak a flaw to let Park Se-ro get an opportunity to attack, thereby promoting the development of the plot.
Now, because of the flaws he revealed, the eldest family finally fell into crisis. At this time, the back that Zhang Genyuan had been looking up to ruthlessly betrayed himself.
He tried his best to prove his value in front of his father. He always hoped to become a person like his father one day, but in the end, his father regarded him as an abandoned soldier.
Although the role of Zhang Genyuan is crucial to the role of the whole drama, in the eyes of other people in the drama, Zhang Genyuan is completely dispensable, and no one cherishes him or values him.
It seems that compared to the other people in the play who have tragic situations, Zhang Genyuan is actually the pitiful person.
