a. Introduction:

< p> Iljimae was originally a character who appeared in the 24th chapter of the Chinese version of the novel "Happy Enemies". As "Happy Enemies" was spread to North Korea in the late Joseon Dynasty, the characters in the story also began to appear in in Korean literature. The comic of the same name by the famous Korean cartoonist Ko Woo-young in the last century made Iljimae a household name in Korea. The protagonist in the comic version of "Iljimae" is a thief who robbed the rich and gave to the poor in the Joseon Dynasty. He is as famous as Hong Gildong and Im Juzheng. One of the three greatest thieves in North Korea.

"Iljimae" mainly tells the story of Iljimae, a knight-errant in the mid-Joseon Dynasty, who fights against those in power and the corrupt social system. He specializes in punishing corrupt officials who are rich, powerful and armed. Because his origin was unknown, he became the most hated criminal by court officials and the hope of poor people. By chance, he met Bian Zhi's daughter Eun-cai and fell in love. The play uses various phenomena of the Joseon Dynasty at that time to satirize social phenomena such as the collusion between officialdom and underworld forces, the privileges enjoyed by the children of high-ranking officials, and the culture of cheating in today's society.

Qian'er witnessed his father being killed when he was 8 years old. He watched his father die in front of his eyes, but he did not even cry out. Later he became the adopted son of the Tieshi family and gradually grew into a little gangster. By chance, he began to doubt his father's death, and the only clue was the pattern on the sword that stabbed his father to death. In order to find the sword, Qian'er became a thief and became a famous Yizhimei in the world. And the love, hate, affection, and enmity between him and Shi Hou, He Cai, and Feng Chun will also unfold enthusiastically.

It turns out that Li Yuanhao is the king's younger brother, so it is actually reasonable for Iljimae to be crowned the king.
