'Vigilante', the punishment for crime is violence instead of law... Exhilarating and bitter dark hero story'
Nam Joo-hyuk, who played the role of Kim Ji-yong, successfully portrayed a dark hero character that is not easy to digest. Unlike traditional heroes, who are just even in the process of implementing their values, dark heroes must show madness and radicalism that can ignore morality and laws while being good. Nam Joo-hyuk expressed refined, not excessive madness with clear, calm eyes and a slight smile when dealing with the evildoers released by the law.
Lee Jun-hyuk, who plays the role of Jo Kang-ok, a helper who is a hero figure collector, clearly expressed the frivolity and pure sense of justice like a younger adult, creating a pleasant pause, while Yoo Ji-tae, who plays the role of Jo Heon, who is tall and bulky, shows the goji knowledge of a system guardian with a dull and iron-clad sense of weight. He showed off it without hesitation.
"Three reasons why Nam Joo-hyuk x Yoo Ji-tae's 'Vigilante' is a hit"
The popularity of the Disney Plus original series ‘Vigilante’ is unusual. 'Vigilante' ranked first in the content rankings for the third week of November, selected by Kinolights, an OTT integrated search and recommendation platform. As soon as it was released on the 8th, it ranked first in the Disney Plus Korea Top 10 TV Shows category.
◇ Attractive ‘Dark Hero’
Although dark heroes are literally 'heroes', they have several flaws compared to traditional heroes. The same goes for Kim Ji-yong (Nam Joo-hyuk), the dark hero of ‘Vigilante’. He is a police student who protects the law during the day, but at night he evades the law and personally judges criminals. Vigilante is an Italian word meaning vigilante. Jiyong said to the perpetrators who committed wrongdoing but live freely because of the soft law, “The law is full of loopholes. We show leniency to people who should not receive leniency. He punishes them with violence, saying, “I will fill that hole.”
◇ Increasing immersion with a true story motif ↑
'Vigilante’ is based on a true story to increase immersion. 'Vigilante', an omnibus format that consists of different episodes each episode, reconstructs crimes that actually occurred in our society and then depicts a dark hero named Kim Ji-yong imposing personal sanctions, giving viewers 'catharsis'.
In fact, in 'Vigilante', incidents reminiscent of the Cho Doo-sun incident, the Miryang middle school girl gang rape incident, the death of a Ui-dong apartment security guard, and the Burning Sun incident appear, and Kim Ji-yong is depicted punishing the perpetrators of each incident.
Culture critic Jeong Deok-hyeon said, “‘Vigilante’ is a work that makes good use of the strengths of a dark hero. “There is a fantasy element given by the word ‘hero’ itself, but we pursued realism through the darkness of Kim Ji-yong’s character and a series of events that occur in real society,” he said, adding, “Viewers will also find it more exciting.”
◇Various perspectives on ‘Vigilante’
It is also interesting that ‘Vigilante’ shows Kim Ji-yong’s personal sanctions from various perspectives. People who think Vigilante is a social hero, police officers who think Vigilante is a crime rather than justice, reporters who are curious about Vigilante's psychology and want to know his identity, and people who try to use Vigilante for their own gain. It illuminates evenly.
By portraying Vigilante from a variety of perspectives rather than just a 'hero', it makes viewers think about what true 'justice' is. In addition, the dark hero's side effects are not left out, as crimes imitating Vigilante appear and things go differently from the justice Jiyong pursued.
Accordingly, the actors of ‘Vigilante’ expressed their gratitude to subscribers who sent their love until the last episode, attracting attention.
First, Nam Joo-hyuk, who played the role of Kim Ji-yong, a model police student who acts as the dark hero Vigilante created by the world, repaid the love of subscribers by sending a handwritten message despite being in military service, saying, “I am sincerely grateful to everyone who loved Vigilante.” .
Yoo Ji-tae, who played the role of Jo Heon, a monster detective with overwhelming physical strength, gave a sensible ending impression quoting the line that enthralled many people: “Can I speak informally from now on?”
Lee Jun-hyuk, who showed off his charming acting transformation as Jo Kang-ok, a second-generation Vigilante fanatic of a chaebol, said, “Thank you for loving Vigilante! Jiyong Kim! “See you again,” he said along with his thanks and a witty message using the character’s relationship.
Kim So-jin, who plays Choi Mi-ryeo, a reporter racing to exclusively report on Vigilante, expressed her gratitude, saying, “Thank you very much for being with us until the end.”
"‘Vigilante’ is a work that leads to new discoveries by Nam Joo-hyuk. It's hard to be surprised when you see a face for the first time, but even the action is perfect. It helped establish itself as an action restaurant that stimulates exhilarating emotions, to the point where one wonders why it decided to try an action thriller only now. He has shown a wide spectrum of acting through various works, and has succeeded in transforming his acting without limits by covering genres as well.
Although he is a dark hero character, Nam Joo-hyuk's narrative-filled eyes convey feelings of compassion and make us understand Vigilante's activities. Nevertheless, there is a coolness in the eyes that quickly changes into boiling anger with hostility toward the criminal, creating surprise.
It is no exaggeration to say that Nam Joo-hyuk did this work perfectly, where acting that slowly reveals one's inner self was more important than expressing intense emotions. The complex emotions of the character, who can seem cold, lonely, and sometimes empty, were conveyed through Nam Joo-hyuk. Above all, Nam Joo-hyuk's colorful expressions of anticipation and anger shown at the end of each episode stimulate viewers' dopamine.
Nam Joo-hyuk's vocalization and breathing while delivering the lines also increased the sense of immersion. In episodes 5 and 6, I couldn't take my eyes off Nam Joo-hyuk, who was increasingly expressing his trapped emotions during the confrontation with Jo Heon (Yoo Ji-tae). He, who has always hidden his emotions, expressed his anger and sadness as if he was not afraid of death. He delivered long lines reliably and led the play with a character that evoked sympathy.
The face hidden by the black hood seemed to sparkle in the darkness. With only the last episode left to be released, we are even more excited to see what kind of face Nam Joo-hyuk, who conveys a two-faced image, will show in his acting."
"'Vigilante' Nam Joo-hyuk, an irreplaceable passionate performance...a new face perfect for action scenes"
This is Nam Joo-hyuk’s new discovery. It's hard to be surprised when you see a face for the first time, but even the action is perfect. It helped establish itself as an action restaurant that stimulates exhilarating emotions, to the point where one wonders why it decided to try an action thriller only now.
Although he is a dark hero character, Nam Joo-hyuk's narrative-filled eyes even convey feelings of pity, making it impossible to understand Vigilante's activities.
Nam Joo-hyuk's vocalization and breathing while delivering the lines also increased the sense of immersion. In episodes 5 and 6, I couldn't take my eyes off Nam Joo-hyuk, who was increasingly expressing his trapped emotions during the confrontation with Jo Heon (Yoo Ji-tae).
"Lee Jun-hyuk risked his life for Nam Joo-hyuk... Yoo Ji-tae is in a coma 'crisis' (Vigilante)"
'Vigilante' is drawing an explosive response with the birth of a new dark hero and exciting developments that follow one another. Vigilante (Nam Joo-hyuk), who received a bloody challenge, and Jo Heon, who fell into a coma after being attacked by Mr. Bang (Shin Jeong-geun) and his group. (Yoo Ji-tae), Jo Kang-ok (Lee Jun-hyuk) who risked his life for Vigilante, and even Choi Mi-ryeo (Kim So-jin) who was attacked by a gunman. The tension is raised to the highest level by foreshadowing the characters facing different crises.
In this 7th episode, Jo Heon falls into a coma after a life-threatening battle with Mr. Bang, the best assassin last week, causing great shock. Due to Jo Heon's absence, Nam Young-il (Won Hyun-jun) is newly appointed as the head of the investigation team and begins to narrow the investigation net into Vigilante's identity.
Nam Young-il, who visited the police station following Jo Heon's investigation route, visits Kim Ji-yong and interrogates her about the Choi Mi-ryeo attack, saying, "Tell me everything about where you were and what you were doing at that time." With a strange sense of tension, attention is being paid to whether Vigilante's identity will be revealed.
In the face of the police and the great evil that are strangling him, Jiyong Kim draws up a different plan, saying, “I will make you another Vigilante,” and his actions begin to become more bold. However, the forces of great evil also murder the innocent citizens that Vigilante helped, and leave a bloody message on the wall: 'Stop hiding, Vigilante, if you don't want to see any more innocent people die.'
Vigilante explodes with anger at those who challenge him head-on, amplifying the tension as to how he will move forward. Jo Kang-ok, who finally joins hands with Vigilante, is enthusiastic about Vigilante's actions, and she helps him in her own way, predicting a mad dash.
Meanwhile, Nam Young-il sits alone with Choi Mi-ryeo and begins to pressure her to get information about Vigilante. Choi Mi-ryeo, who does not give in to external pressure, continues to broadcast explicit stories about Sewol Future Resources and Vigilante, and as he is attacked by a mysterious force, the tension doubles as to whether he will be able to escape the danger. The life-threatening clash of the four characters facing different crises will create explosive tension and captivate viewers with an unstoppable race toward the ending.
Nam Joo-hyuk, who plays the title role in this work, portrays a character full of anger, hatred, and his own beliefs. He is a character who realizes only his own justice by condemning evil and excluding hesitation and conflict from a boy who was brutally trampled. He, who has played the role of a serious and pure romantic male lead with a handsome and gentle appearance, is clearly showing his greed as an actor through 'Vigilante'.
He shows off the two faces of a dark hero, one that still shows off his bright boyish charm wearing a police uniform, and the other that transforms into a lonely vigilante with darkness. The boy with the stern face we loved and cherished turns into a god of death who does not hesitate to commit rough violence and murder within the framework of justice he created, and unleashes a fierce killing. With his tightly closed mouth, secretive expression, and angry eyes, Nam Joo Hyuk is creating the appearance of Vigilante.
When Yoo Ji-tae, who plays the role of Jo Heon, a senior police officer who protects the rule of law, gained 20 kg and appeared as a man with fearsome strength and exuded an overwhelming presence, Nam Joo-hyuk, who stood up to him, also completed a powerful two-shot with his sleek muscular body and powerful energy. . And the scene where he is covered in blood and criticizes his beliefs and the justice that the law cannot protect, gives a glimpse of the potential that Nam Joo-hyuk will show in the future. The two sides of a delicate and naive young man and an angry macho are portrayed coolly and passionately with Nam Joo-hyuk's unique tone and charm. The appearance and emotions of Jiyong and actor Nam Joo-hyuk in the play, the transitional stage of walking from a young and fresh boy to a strong man, match perfectly, and the actor and the character create a chemistry that exceeds expectations.
