As the broadcast popularity of 《K-project》 continues to rise, I believe it will become the most worth-watching work in the near future and will also become an important center of public discussion.The plot analysis of the second season finale of the Korean drama - K-project - has been the most discussed recently.The following is some content compiled by the editor for you.

Shengzao: “Why do you want to fight with them?I know I can't win against them” Zhang Taishang:“ I'm not trying to win or lose, I'm trying not to forget, not to forget the evil deeds they committed against us, tell them that the people who remember those crimes are still alive today, and ask them to apologize.If they don't feel sorry, at least live with a little sense of guilt. If they don't even feel guilty, then I have to make them feel intrusive and upset. I have to do this so that they won't forget.Can't you forgive all this?”Zhang Taishang:“How can you talk about forgiveness when facing someone who has no intention of apologizing?Wouldn't it be ridiculous to say "I've never done anything like this, nor has this happened to me before" and say that I want to forgive them as if nothing had happened?The first scene in the finale of the second season of ”K-project is the conversation between Sheng Zao and Zhang Taishang. I really like this scene. The visual screen is put on a gray filter, and the director creates a timeline of the past.In addition, it also gives a sense of melancholy. In fact, this scene has a lot of echoes with the ending of the first season. In the ending of the first season of 《K-project》, there is a lot of space between Yukiko Maeda and ZhangFor Tae Sang's scenes, the director at that time emphasized the pain and desperate survival caused by the Japanese colonization of Korea. The plot in the first season emphasized the desperation of the Koreans who desperately wanted to survive under the Japanese colonization., and Cui Xingqin once said that you will soon become numb to these things like other people. Human beings are like this. No matter what they encounter, they can adapt quickly, whether it is pain or disillusionment.Most people at that time chose to accept and endure pain and disillusionment, without seeing hope. This phrase was said by the Japanese director who conducted the experiment in the first season: “Every living thing in the world will eventually be destroyed.Tamed, just like we tamed North Korea”.

But what happens to those who give up resistance?That is, he will be more and more bullied and tamed (eventually becoming fragile), which is why 《K-project》Jang Taesang in the first season was originally a character who didn't want to worry about anything, and will gradually transform into someone who no longer cares about anything.The character who continues to be ignored, because Zhang Taishang feels more and more that he is being oppressed and exploited by the Japanese in the storyline, and deeply feels the tyranny and cruelty of the Japanese, so he realizes that he can no longer be silent.People who just want to survive by speaking out and cooperating, so the atmosphere in the first season is quite well echoed in the finale of the second season, especially the huge traces of historical trauma left in Zhang Taesang's heart and body., in the past 79 years, Zhang Taishang has wanted to let those who made mistakes always remember how cruel and damning they are.Maeda Yukiko thinks it’s damnable that human beings make choices that only benefit themselves because of emotions or selfishness in wanting to live (because she was hurt by Cui Xingqin during the war and had sown resentment, but she doesn’t know how to understand it)Cui Xingqin holds a grudge), but Zhang Taishang can understand“ that the reason behind many people making such a decision is that they want to live”. This is why the audience will see the words at the beginning of every episode of this drama.There is a 'boundary' between “OO and OO. According to my own interpretation, this ”boundary“ is the choice of ”different human nature“. Everyone's choice will have their own reasons and emotions, but Zhang Taishang emphasized that these sins can beTo be forgiven, the premise is that the person who made the mistake should also apologize and live with a sense of guilt fairly, instead of inexplicably unilaterally asking the victim to bear these traumas.

Sheng Zao: ”It was a helpless era“ Zhang Taishang: ”Yes, it was caused by the times. We did make the last resort choice in order to survive. After all, we are human, but only humans can do it when we discover mistakes and correct them.Things, if you are not even willing to make that little effort, the world will become more terrifying, right?%The director has this section in the conversation between the two, which echoes the plot design in the first season of K-project. For detailed content, you can see [Unit 731]. Here I will generally review KatsuzoWhat does the "helpless era" mean? Why is Japan doing these experiments?What's the purpose?From the plot of 《K-project》 we know that Japan had already been carrying out this secret experiment in 1944, and experimented on some people. But what is the purpose of the Japanese doing this?Is it related to Japan's imminent defeat in World War II? Because the background of 《K-project》 is the end of World War II (the drama starts in March 1943), which means that Japan has not yet been defeated.point, but it is also a time when we are eager to win the war. Here I will give a little explanation of the historical background of this design ~ This is related to the historical facts of World War II.In World War II, Japan followed Germany and became an Axis power. It dominated the whole of Greater Asia, launched wars everywhere, and occupied many countries. In the later period of World War II, Japan's main occupation was island hopping, which was invading the United States.“ of power and land, and eventually provoked the United States by proactively attacking U.S. territory (such as the sneak attack on Pearl Harbor, an important military battlefield), thus allowing the U.S. military, an ally, to dispatch to conquer Japan (in 1944, Japan began to face the loss of many small islands it originally occupied), this was also the period of the Pacific War), the United States and the Allied Forces began island hopping to expel various countries and islands originally occupied by Japan (and gradually forced to attack Japan's main island). Japan was indeed defeated by the United States, British and Allied forces in World War II.The Japanese army fought miserably and lost miserably (in the end, two atomic bombs destroyed their dignity), so 《K-project》 at the time of 1945/3 in the plot, it was Japan who faced the Allies and gradually regained them.The lands and countries they occupied in the past are gradually approaching the main island of Japan, so the 《K-project》 takes advantage of ”Japan's anxiety about not wanting to lose, and wants to cultivate this kind of monster to fight back against the Allies in World War II.Therefore, this is what Katsuzo said about "It was a helpless era".

《K-project》 A big focus is on letting the audience feel “historical trauma”. In the ending of the first season《K-project》, Jang Taesang said something to Yukiko Maeda that I think is realistic, thatThat is, if these people were not born in such a world, they would not have to endure the torture. What Zhang Taishang meant at that time was that these people would not have to betray others so weakly because the Japanese brought this kind of torture.environment, this is the source of all betrayal and betrayal. Even though the North Koreans have experienced all this, these people are still fighting for their lives, gritting their teeth and holding on, whether it is humiliation or misery, because to survive, if we do not surviveIf we come down, no one will remember what happened to us (this is why the Koreans fought hard and helped each other, because they were all trying their best to survive, and used the traces left on their bodies to prove the consequences of Japanese colonization)Sin), I can understand why Zhang Taishang is so persistent in going to trouble Heritage Pharmaceuticals. After all, what he wants is not revenge, but to let the other party truly know how much harm their actions have caused and that they need to apologize and stop this.kind of error.《K-project》In one of the episodes in the second season, Jang Taesang said to Maeda Yukiko: Now the Japanese era is over, you should go back to your own country. The meaning behind this sentence was given depth in the ending, becauseThis scene happened because Jang Tae-sang set a bomb at Ishikawa's funeral to disfigure Maeda Yukiko. This “disfigurement” wasn't until the finale of K-project Season 2 that I finally understood why the screenwriter asked Maeda Yukiko to give her scar.Stayed for two years?Because this scar represents the traces left by making mistakes, and it is also Zhang Taishang’s lifelong reminder to Maeda Yukiko, and I think Zhang Taishang also understands that Maeda Yukiko’s stance of doing these things is because the times have also brought herEmotional trauma, so now that the Japanese era is over, you can go back to your own country. It is Zhang Taesang who wants to forgive Maeda Yukiko. The scar left on Maeda Yukiko's face can be regarded as a permanent warning to Maeda Yukiko, so even ifIt's even!Little did they know that Maeda Yukiko once again hurt Zhang Taishang without any mistake, so this also caused Zhang Taishang to say "How can you forgive someone who doesn't intend to apologize at all?"Wouldn't it be ridiculous to say "I've never done anything like this, nor has this happened to me before" and say that I want to forgive them as if nothing had happened?“So Zhang Taishang once wanted to forgive Maeda Yukiko ~ After all, seeing Maeda Yukiko again at this point in time, Zhang Taishang's heart when facing the loss of Yin Caiyu should have wanted to take revenge on Maeda Yukiko again, but the screenwriter did not let Zhang Taishang do this.Do, this also symbolizes that Jang Tae Sang Tae wanted to let go and forgive at that time ~ I think the writer and director in the second season gave the character of Jang Tae Sang more three-dimensional depth, because he awakened many people to face him many timesTrauma is not the end of escape and unilateral forgiveness, because those who do not know their mistakes continue to make mistakes. This echoes Yin Caiyu’s disbelieving expression when he returned to the dungeon of Wengcheng Hospital again in the first few episodes of the second season.By the way, isn't this all over yet?”, her words are echoing what Zhang Taishang said. “If a person does not know his mistakes, how can he forgive if he continues to make mistakes?”

Korean Drama《K-project》Season 2 Finale Plot Analysis

Zhang Taishang wants to work hard to make Heritage Pharmaceutical feel guilty for his crimes, continuing the fermentation of “ historical trauma”, 《K-project》The ending of the first season is “In August of the same year, we finally got backThe things that were taken away, as she said, the cherry blossoms have all fallen. I remember that in the first season, Yin Caiyu and Zhang Taeshang once said, "When will we usher in a peaceful and prosperous age?"This is their long-held hope. I remember that in the first episode of the second season, it was said that Zhang Taishang’s dream is to live an ordinary life. Such an ordinary life is the meaning that he has been pursuing for 79 years.Shengzao: ”I would rather not have known him. In this case, even if I become a monster, it doesn't matter at all. Thanks to Brother Haozai, I once had a dream for a while. I think I can live like him., live like a human being, live like a human being, but the result is not like this, I am a monster, except myself, I don’t care what happens to others, I have no guilt, nor do I feel guilty, I will kill anyone who poses a threat to meWhoever hunts when they are bored and hunts when they are hungry, there is no need for these to be more exciting. Everything is over, what can I do?“”Things are over, what can I do?“This is a line that Katsuzou often says in this drama. Katsuzou's character is really a complex character in the second season. He is very confused at the boundary between human nature and monster. He once wanted to live like a human being.In the ending, he chose to become a monster.His character is particularly special because of his upbringing and upbringing as a monster, because unlike Jang Tae-sang and Yoon Chae-ok, who experienced human emotional pain before becoming Naren, through Seung-zaoJudging from what he said to Yin Caiyu, we can know that he is actually afraid of dying if he is not a monster, because he has never had the experience and feelings of being a human, so all he wants is to ”live“(especiallyIn the plot, he was threatened by a mysterious man from the organization, saying, "I know how to control the Na people in your brain," and Maeda Yukiko's Yong Na human dormancy injection threatened him. All these made him realize that without the protection of the Na people,I am not even a monster, and I am still super fragile), so Katsuzou himself says that I am using Maeda Yukiko to keep myself alive”, but in fact Katsuzou is being used and manipulated by these fears. This isWhat Yukiko Maeda is good at.

Yukiko Maeda: Do you still think that everyone’s life is equally important?“Zhang Taishang:”You still don’t think so?“Yukiko Maeda:”I have always been curious, how fair can you treat every human life?For example, Yin Caiyu, your friend lying in the hospital, or your police friend, the boy No. 71?Which side will you choose?In the K-project season 2 finale, Maeda Yukiko said to Zhang Taishang: "Do you still think everyone's life is equally important?"“This is actually a plot that echoes the ending of the first season of K-project. We have discussed it in the ending of the first season of ”K-project. It has already been discussed in the ending of the first season.It satirizes Maeda Yukiko who wants to impose interpersonal relationships and emotions like this. She is the person who is the least able to understand what emotions are. Through the arrogance of the Japanese, they think that money and status can get any relationship they want, but they don’t know how.The true love is the most indestructible~《K-project》shows the “natural arrogance” of Japanese colonialism at that time, bullying, trampling, and destruction. This is also shown in the character of Maeda Yukiko, she said“Do you think that all human lives are equal?” This sentence implies the Japanese view and contempt that Korean lives are not worth cherishing, as well as the self-righteousness of having a high self-esteem, and such dialogue and concepts continue to bring down Jang Taesang and Maeda Gakushu in the second season finale.Make the finishing touches.Maeda Yukiko's philosophy is that she believes that human life is divided into noble and inferior. What she was unhappy with Zhang Taishang was that Zhang Taishang should have repaid her unconditional help and pursuit. After all, she was an important person at that time.A person with a high status is a woman that everyone admires and wants to pursue (so she should think that Zhang Taishang should choose her who is more valuable). This is why in the second season, Maeda Yukiko went to find Zhang Taishang two years after she was injured in a bomb.When I said that my sincerity was rewarded with insults, based on my psychological interpretation of Maeda Yukiko, it can be seen that she is extremely possessive of love, just like she married to North Korea in the past.She just wants to seek revenge for Cui Xingqin’s betrayal (wanting to fulfill the lack of love in her heart by making Cui Xingqin obey). She is a person who cannot share this love with anyone, so in the second seasonWhy is there a scene where Maeda Yukiko makes Zhang Taishang think who to save? Maeda Yukiko wants to prove to Zhang Taishang that his belief that all lives are equal is wrong.It’s just that Maeda Yukiko was originally going to shoot Zhang Taishang, why did she hesitate?I think she should see the proof that her ideas are wrong in Zhang Taishang's choices and actions. Although people often choose to make decisions based on their own interests in order to survive, this is human instinct, and because of this instinctOnly then can every decision be meaningful, rather than a calculation of grudges or sacrifices. In addition, the injection that Maeda Yukiko received from Zhang Taishang was also very ironic, because her value for her own existence has becomeIt's based on whether or not there is a Ninja. I think she didn't fire that shot to a large extent because she wanted to live“. Just like Katsuzo's position, she could be killed at any time if she was deprived of the ability to Ninja.Die, so if she really fires that shot, not only will she not be able to hurt or kill Zhang Taishang, but she will also let Zhang Taishang get rid of her directly. In the end, she will be the one who suffers, and she will be the one who loses everything, soThat shot was not fired, and all the passengers were trapped by Yukiko Maeda's shackles!

I quite like the concept of the boundary between ”symbiosis and “parasitism designed by the writer and director in the finale of the second season. This is also in line with the instinct of Na people to be parasites. This concept is used in several places in the ending:

Yin Caiyu: Can we really see the coming of peace and prosperity?”Jang Taesang:“I will definitely do it, I will let this day come before us”In the finale of the second season of K-project, because Na Ren left Yin Caiyu’s body, her memory of the past was gone. To say thisWhether it ends well or not, I think it depends on what perspective the audience is looking forward to. I think the screenwriter did a pretty good job at the ending, because Yin Caiyu has been a character to whom all misfortunes have happened since the first season. Go to Mom,After losing his father and losing Zhang Taishang, he lived alone for 79 years. After such long pain was gone, all these pains seemed to have been wiped away from Yin Caiyu's head. For Yin Caiyu, maybe thisOrdinary life is a happy ending, and it is also the peaceful age she has longed for before.Of course, this inexplicable longing is still tumbling in Yin Caiyu's heart, but at least the screenwriter gave the audience a great happy ending in the ending. Zhang Taeshang and Yin Caiyu will still be together. After all, when the two reunited, their eyes began toTearing, I think the intuitive feeling in my heart has not disappeared. Falling in love again by starting over is also a good ending.But here at Heritage Pharmaceutical, Shengzao actually asked Heritage Pharmaceutical to put all the Naren in mineral water for sale!He chose to make monsters out of all humans!So that he can take control!“Can we really see the coming of peace and prosperity?”The answer is obviously: “No”. I don’t know if this is setting up for the third season, but it feels a bit endless XD

The above is all about the plot analysis of the second season finale of the Korean drama《K-project》.The story after the film may show more exciting scenes and plots, and there may also be some plot parts that the audience does not understand well, but don’t worry, you are welcome to pay attention to our line class, we will continue to bring you moreWhat a wonderful plot introduction, plot analysis and other content.
