UN DRAMA UNIQUE EN SON GENRE !

Ce drama possède de nombreuses qualités, il a un excellent OST, un super casting qui sont à l’aise ensemble même hors écran, un passé webtoon qui donne une trame narrative déjà fixe, un visuel sublime et des personnages attachants.

Des le début vous êtes entrainé dans le tourbillon des nombreuses vies vécues par la lead qui sont toutes diversifiées et plus riches et les unes que les autres. Cela rend le personnage principal féminin trés intéréssant et non ennuyeuse. Elle est charmeuse, elle est forte, elle a de la détermination. Cest une femme qu’on aimerait toutes être.

Le lead se veut trés réservé malgré sa corpulence importante et de voir Bo Hyun de cette façon m’ a vraiment ravie car ça contraste vraiment avec son physique.

L’ambiance est spéciale et chaque chose est expliqué petit à petit. On navigue sur pas mal de flashback du passé, ce qui peut desfois rendre les episodes un peu faisant du « sur place » mais dans l’ensemble en 12 episodes on avance super bien !

J’ai adoré l’ambiance, l’alchimie , l’histoire , les jeunes qui interprétaient les leads. Vraiment cest un coup de coeur ! Ne passez pas a côté cest un drama pour les gens intelligents et sensibles !

A PERFECT PRODUCTION

Maybe for some countries, the magic of HIERARCHY has not taken. But in mine we loved it and now it is also ranked 1st in 23 countries and 5th worldwide in the category of television programs.
He also entered the top 10 in the United States for the first time.

SO I LAY THE FOUNDATIONS BEING A BIG FAN OF GOSSIP GIRL AND OVERALL I REALLY LIKE THE ELITE HIGH SOCIETY SCHOOL SERIES OF COURSE I WAS THE PERFECT CUSTOMER FOR "HIERARCHY"

"DESPITE THE FAT I LOVED IT. WITH A RESTED HEAD I ALSO SAW HIS DEFAULTS.

HIERARCHY IS FOR ME MORE A ROMANCE THAN A REVENGE AS THE LATTER HAS LOST ITS MEANING OVER THE EPISODES. AND CLEARLY GO YOUR WAY IF YOU DON'T LIKE THE "PSEUDO" HIGH SOCIETY OF YOUNG KOREANS CHAEBOL THAT WE HAD ALREADY SEEN IN PYRAMID GAME. FROM THE FIRST EPISODE I AM EMBARKED DIRECTLY. THE NEAT CINEMATOGRAPHY / PLANS / MUSIC AND THIS DISTURBING AMERICANIZED PAW STILL PUTS YOU IN A BRAND NEW STYLE OF KDRAMA ALMOST AWAY FROM WHAT WE HAVE BEGUN TO APPRECIATE KOREAN DRAMAS FOR THE DIFFERENT STYLE OF WESTERNS ETC.

HERE THE CHILD IS MORE THAN KING. HE SPEAKS BADLY TO ADULTS, HE HAS POWER (TOO MUCH EVEN) SEX TOBACCO ALCOHOL DRUGS ALL THIS IS PART OF THEIR VERBAL LANGUAGE THEY ARE TOTALLY DEVERGOND. WHY NOT? BUT IS THIS REALLY THE IMAGE OF YOUNG KOREANS? NOT COMPLETELY!
THE "POOR" HERO GOES TO THE "RICH" HIGH SCHOOL (YES WE ARE IN THE CLICHÉS) TO DO JUSTICE TO HIS BROTHER WHO PERISHED BECAUSE OF HIM. ON THE WAY HE MEETS THE LOVE OF HIS LIFE ONLY THIS ONE ALREADY HAS HER HEART TAKEN AND A VERY TRAUMATIC STORY TO HER MAKING HER DEVOID OF ALL EMOTIONS.

OUR HERO WILL THEREFORE HAVE TO JUGGLE BETWEEN HIS RECENT CRUSH AND THE HUNT FOR THE CULPRIT ALTHOUGH THIS WILL NOT BE THE PRIORITY OF THE CENTRAL PLOT YOU WILL HAVE UNDERSTOOD IT. BECAUSE HIERARCHY'S PROGRAM IS RATHER A LOVE TRIANGLE AND DECEITFUL PEOPLE AROUND WHO ALL HAVE THEIR LITTLE SECRETS AND WHO CLOSE THEIR EYES TO EVERYTHING IF THEY DON'T HAVE POWER, AND WHO ABUSE IT IF THEY HAVE IT TO MAKE AMERICAN PARTIES OR POUR MONEY/ALCOHOL AND LUXURY OUTFIT AFLOAT OR TO MAKE THE LAW AT SCHOOL.


THE PROS:

CINEMATOGRAPHY

OST

DECORS / UNIFORMS

CHOICE OF ACTORS (LEE CHAEMIN) AND PARENTS

THE SHORT FORMAT

VF AUDIO TO EXPAND THE KDRAMAS PUBLIC

THE FINAL MORALITY

THE SECRET OF THE LEAD WAS QUITE SURPRISING FOR A SCHOOL NOT USUAL OF KOREANS WHO ARE TABOO WITH THAT

THE INTIMATE SCENES THAT WERE DIFFICULT TO SHOOT FOR YOUNG ACTORS

APPEARANCES ARE MISLEADING

THE MAIN ROMANCE WAS STRONG BUT ABOVE ALL THANKS TO THE GUY

. THE CONS:

THE LEAD WAS WITHOUT EMOTION IT BECAME TIRING CREATING A LACK OF ALCHEMY

THE PLOT VENGEANCE IS COMPLETELY ABSORBED BY ROMANCE AND OTHER PROBLEMS

THE USA SIDE IS NICE BUT IS AWAY FROM KOREAN REALITY

INDECENCIES AND INJUSTICES ARE TOO NORMALIZED (LIKE THE TEACHER AND THE TEACHER EVERYONE KNOWS BUT?? )

THE LEAD IS EATEN BY THE SECOND LEAD SEVERAL TIMES AND WE NO LONGER KNOW HIS PLACE

THE CLICHÉS (BUT I DON'T LOVE IT)

THE MORAL END BUT AMBIGUOUS IN THE END WHO REALLY LEARNED THE LESSON?

THE FACT THAT THE TEASER DOING MORE THRILLER


GLOBALLY I LOVED THAT THE KOREANS GET OUT OF THEIR COMFORT ZONE EVEN IF WE WERE A LITTLE IN THE EXCESS FROM PENTHOUSE, ESCAPE, ETC. THEY LET THEMSELVES GO A LITTLE TOO MUCH LIKE US LOL AND IT'S NOT A GOOD SIGN FOR THE FUTURE IF WE CHOSE KDRAMAS IT'S BECAUSE THE USA SERIES ALSO LIFTS US TO THE BASE. I STILL ENJOYED THIS CINEMATOGRAPHY AND GLOBAL PRODUCTION THAT GOES UP A NOTCH AND SELLS DREAM FOR AN ELITE SCHOOL BUT WHICH IS VERY FAR FROM KOREAN CLICHÉS AND REALITY. I TOOK THIS WORK AS IT CAME AND I APPRECIATED SOME ACTORS WHO PLAYED WITH A LOT OF BITES DESPITE THE SCENARIO MISTAKES. I ADVISE IT TO THE REGULARS OF THE USA SERIES NOT THE REGULARS OF THE WEAK HERO DRAMAS ETC. TAKE THE WORK AS IT COMES. IT'S NOT A CHAOS THERE'S WORK BEHIND YOU DON'T BELIEVE AND GO DOWN THE DRAMA IS NOT JUSTIFIED FOR ME BUT I CAN UNDERSTAND THAT IT DIDN'T AFFECT EVERYONE
