The drama goddess takes action again, is it another large-scale movie?

Ju Sang-sook, the most competitive member of Congress.

At the same time, he is also a politician who adapts to the changing circumstances and lies constantly.

In order to win the hearts and votes of the people, she pretended to be close to the people, kept food and clothing simple, and did her best to save face.

But one day, she suddenly stopped telling lies and took the initiative to dismantle herself? "The Honest Candidate"

As South Korea's first comedy movie this year, It brings together the undefeated comedy actor Ra Mi-ran, the Grand Slam actress Na Moon-hee, the unforgettable second male lead Kim Moo-yeol from "The Bad Guy", and the golden supporting actor Yoon Kyung-ho who is often encountered in Korean dramas. To be honest, the cast alone makes this movie worth looking forward to. In fact, it lived up to expectations and topped the Korean weekend box office once it was released. The film continues the style of Korean films that were dared to be filmed in the past, vividly showing the image of a profit-seeking congressman, and using humor to satirize corruption. But what's special is that Congresswoman Zhu Sang-sook, who is above the common people, was originally a "miserable person". Born in a poor family, she fought against the insurance group alone in order to regain her grandmother's cancer insurance money. When everyone was not optimistic about her fight, she succeeded and entered the political arena. However, after several years of struggling in the political arena, Zhu Sangshu seemed to have forgotten her original intention. She relied on her grandmother Jin Yuji's charity to win the hearts of the people, but in order to consolidate her position, she pretended that her grandmother was dead and hid her in a remote mountain village. Lift it off and let the secretary be the "grandson".

I only mention grandma when I need votes, to attract attention and increase my sense of presence. How hard does Zhu Shangshu work to create her image as a "people's servant"?

Wearing a wig all the time, deliberately stepping on dirty shoes to show their age;

Daily condolences to the masses, the secretary reminds her of everyone's current situation in a timely manner, so as to highlight Zhu Shangshu in the greetings? Love the people like your own children?;

One second, you are tit-for-tat with your competitors in front of the screen, and the next second, you are sitting together for a drink, and you use your power to provide the other party with insider stock information;

Get off work After that, they immediately returned to the small house of dozens of square meters, pretending to be a loving couple with their husband, and in the dead of night, they disguised themselves and sneaked back to the big villa. Of course, they did not forget to pretend to be a badminton racket, just to attract people from the sports association. vote.

It can be said that Zhu Shangshu brought the duality and double-dealing to the extreme.

As the saying goes, everything must be reversed when it goes to extremes. Zhu Shangshu's grandmother Jin Yuji finally couldn't bear her granddaughter's lies, so she made a wish to make her turn back into the kind and upright congressman and never lie again!

It was just a beautiful expectation, but who’s dream actually came true?

When she woke up, Zhu Shangshu was surprised to find that she could no longer lie!

Rebuked the mother-in-law who was always looking for trouble, and disliked the unemployed husband who could only pickle radishes;

He openly dissed his competitors during the live broadcast, and also made jokes about the 19-year-old ban;

You even revealed that the book was written by a gunman, and you haven’t read it yet?

So much information was exposed at once, the team panicked, the people were confused, and the support rate dropped by 7 overnight %.

Crazy? Drinking fake wine?

No, she just doesn’t know how to lie.

Zhu Shangshu realized that she could not control her mouth at all, and the words in her heart always came out at inappropriate times.

If the hard conditions are not satisfactory, then use the soft conditions to make up for it!

The team urgently formulated four sets of competition plans to build momentum for Zhu Shangshu.

Support from relatives; expose dirty information about the opponent;

Play the family card and let the son who is far away in the United States return to the country to enlist in the army, demonstrating his sincerity in serving the people.

Of course, the best thing is to use public opinion skillfully to shape the character.

Since you can’t lie, then be the most honest candidate!

Compared with other candidates who are full of fake smiles and can only speak in official tone, congressmen like Zhu Shangshu who do not follow the routine are obviously more popular with the people.

From being surprised and confused, to laughing at the show, to accepting support, Zhu Sangshu overwhelmingly became the number one candidate with her "don't lie" persona.

Just when everyone thought Zhu Shangshu was bound to be elected, a reporter revealed that Zhu Shangshu's charity was all fake. It was called supporting poor college students, but in fact, it gave all the admission opportunities to the "rich second generation". Then use the "penalty scholarship" system to recover the funding.

Conservative estimates suggest that the charity founded by Joo Sang-sook embezzled 150 billion won.

However, in fact, Zhu Shangshu did not know about this. Everything was operated by the capital behind her.

At the same time, her grandmother passed away from terminal cancer. Zhu Shangshu did not lie. The curse was then lifted.

So, what choice will Zhu Sang-sook make when she can lie again? Choose integrity or corruption? I won’t spoil it. Interested friends can find the answer in the movie.

In fact, the movie "The Honest Candidate" is qualified as a comedy, with constant jokes. Coupled with Luo Meilan's acting skills, a character who should be hated is actually played out. Her innocent energy made the audience burst into laughter while inadvertently immersing themselves in her personal charm.

But its shortcomings are also obvious. Originally, the first half could be seen as using a comedy shell to satirize corrupt politics, but in the second half, a common problem with Korean movies appeared, lack of stamina, and a good irony. The film insists on taking the inspirational and tender route, which directly brings down the entire work.
