Due to the similar history and culture among Sinosphere countries, the "The 5th Republic" was first popular on the Japanese network, and then was translated into Chinese by
the Anarchism Subtitle Group, based on the version of the Japanese DVD, and it was popular in China. In China, the re-creation and discussion of the TV series is called "5th Studies(which is similar to Redology)."
This is an introduction to the Korean drama "The 5th Republic". In short, watching this drama can compare Chinese political and economic reforms in the 1980s and 1990s. There are many similarities.
Although this TV play is an artistic creation, it can be called an official record. It shows not only the politics and life of South Korea, but also the old way that China, the late-developing country, cannot avoid later.
Of course, if you say: I am not interested in Korean politics and Chinese history.
You can also watch this TV play. The actors are very good, and the story is also wonderful.
Love comes from China.
