The challenger at the back of the woman in “Queen of Reversals”
I see a question mark on this one, “Queen of Reversals”. This drama boasts some very strong willed women and I view it as one that was more of a “the woman behind the man” kind of storyline. But there were moments when one man was right behind his woman.
Yes, I am talking about Park Sihoo-ssi’s Goo Yongsik. He needed the full backing of that strong woman to keep him on the right path most of the time. He was after all a poor little rich boy covering his insecurity of being motherless and unloved by his family behind an obnoxious, snooty and couldn’t-care-less facade.
But we also saw him on several occasions being impetus to Hwang Taehee’s success or helping her to overcome her demons.
The man behind the woman in “Queen of Reversals”
In one instance, she had a chance to make a presentation to the company “Queen” for a career comeback. However, she accidentally encountered her ex-boss who ridiculed and threatened her and she suffered a panic attack. She would have chickened out if not for Goo Yongsik’s taunt that got her springing back fighting.
Whether by design or with some ill-intent, he was her challenger. He played on her strong willed, never back off a challenge personality to get her out of her rut of self pity and into positive action. His challenge for her to sell the slow moving stocks in the Queen’s warehouse spurred her creative juices working and into action, despite lackluster reactions from her outcast team mates.
Ah, don’t you just love Goo-goo in Queen of Reversals!
And his confidence in her had him pushing her to stand in front of the camera to sell their products in front of a live audience. With him and their team at the back giving support, she delivered so well that saw their sales take off and winning over their rival despite being at the receiving end of dirty tricks and politics.
Yes, the “Queen of Reversals” Hwan Taehee, while always being the woman behind her man’s back, also had a man behind her back looking out for her. This is what they call synergy!
Now, if I were to have him watch my back!
在每个女人的背后：逆转女王
谈到“逆转女王”背后的男人，我看到了一个问号。这部剧里边的，有好多意志非常坚强的女士，更像是“男人背后的女人”的故事情节。但有时也看到某位女士背后的一位男人。
是的，我说的是施厚君饰演的具勇植。大部分时间他需要那位坚强的女人的全力支持，让他走在正确的道路上。他毕竟是一位可怜的小富翁，带着令人有点讨厌、傲慢、毫不在乎的态度去掩盖他没有母亲和家人爱戴的悲伤的心灵。
但我们也多次看到他推动黄泰熙，令她成功的克服她的恶魔。

当她有机会在“女王”公司的领导面前做演讲，如果留好印象，可以重返工作时，不巧的遇上了她的旧上司，给她讽刺和威胁，领她惊恐发作。如果不是具勇植的嘲讽让她重新振奋，她就会退缩了。
无论是有意为之还是出于恶意，他都是她的挑战者。他引发她的坚强的意志和从不退缩挑战的个性，让她摆脱自怜的习惯并采取积极的行动。他挑战她买完女王公司滞销库存，激发了她的创造力并付诸行动，尽管她那些被公司抛弃的队友们的反应是平淡的。

他对她有信心，所以促使她站在镜头前，在现场观众面前推销他们的产品。尽管有他人用肮脏手段和政治去阻碍他们，在具勇植和他们的团队在后面给予支持的情况下，她表现出超，销售起飞并赢过了他们的竞争对手。
是的，“逆转女王”黄泰熙，虽然一直是男人背后的女人，但在她的背后也有一位男人在守护着她。这就是他们所说的协同作用！
