After watching Season 1 and 2 more than twice, here’s my review of the drama:
Let’s talk about the story:
A simple student in a school full of bullies (they’re not changing a winning formula). Other students constantly messing with him. Episode 1 is explosive the moment he smashes the guy’s face with a notebook, +20 hits, I literally counted them I loved it.Season 1 has some really strong opponents: from classmates to gang members, all the way up to the gang leader. Plus the original antagonist who really pisses you off by the end of the season by sending someone from the group (I won’t spoil the name). That antagonist ends up becoming a huge victim and has to ask for help. Overall, Season 1’s story is TOP tier!
The actors? Nothing to criticize they’re incredible!
The fight scenes are intense, exactly how we like them!

I really REALLY like this show
Other than the great casting, the show itself is just, muah, chef's kiss.The emotions that are portrayed feel so real and is conveyed very well by the actors.
Other than that, it doesnt feel corny or copied like other shows can feel, it instead feels very unique and original (I know it's based on a webtoon, but ykwim)
Moreover the open ending left off so well to introduce season 2 even though I'm sad that Choi hyun wook will be in that season. I look forward to seeing more of this show and it's definetely a great and thrilling watch!
I recommend strongly, on my mother, it's amazing!

WOW, seriously so impressive by everything - the acting, story, OST, everything
im loving the bromance so much between si eun and si ho, the building of the story plot and character is so realistic. kinda upset with the ending, but that also just shows how realistic the real world is. though, the ending is not gonna stop me from giving a 10/10 rating. I LOVE IT.Si Eun acting is honestly so good, just found out he's from wanna one and im surprised.
P/S. going into weak hero class season 2 right now, after finishing season 1! i hope it doesn't disappoint.

Perfection
My usual kdrama genre is romance and crime involved thriller so this whole fight club was new.Be warned, you inner demons crawl out and you grin madly as violence ensues on screen.
Mine did as I screamed "punch, again!!!" (I'm OK, I'm therapy)
The choreography, the cinematography, the inability to stop yourself binge watching. It's got it. Acting was 10++
The only reason for the 9.5 is because someone really deserved a sever beating... But didn't get it *grrr*
Other than that it was satisfying drama definitely worth the rewatch.

Gritty and brilliant
They say usually the source material is usually better than the movie production - that is not the case here. The series is as good, if not better than the webtoon, with outstanding acting and great plot. Jihoon did a really great portrayal of his character, so much so it's hard to tell he's an idol actor. I watched the drama twice in one sitting when it came out and am on the edge of my seat for Season 2.The ending of the first episode is shocking and unexpected. The rest of the show is exactly like that - the plot does not disappoint.

MY FAVOURITE
i literally loved jihoon and hyunwook here. my favourite duo omg, and the ost at the start? i loved it so much. the coma scene made me cry 😭 I love love love love this. it's difficult to comprehend how much i liked it, it was intense and omg jihoon's acting? hes my favourite now. i see pen different now after him omg, i don't think ive seen someone act as well as him. i could tell how he was feeling without him speaking a single word. beomseok got on my nerves and i had to remind myself that he's just a charcter and not real 😭 i understand where he came from but oh boy was it horrible, the most complex charcter. i really wanna know what happened to him at end???Was this review helpful to you?

This was sooo good the actors played their characters well especially park ji hoon like when he slapped himself I felt it.Beom seok was a prick with a inferiority complex who took out his family problems and his insecurities on others.
Si eun was a psycho and I loved it the look in his eyes was perfect to show how much of a psycho he is. At least he's a good friend who fought for hi friends unlike Beom seok
Soo ho is such a good friend who will do whatever it takes to protect his friends and I love that.
I'm convinced that the bullies had nothing to do with their lives so they bully kids whom they feel inferior to (most talking about yeong bin)
The only problem I have with this drama is that it is too short I need more soo I can protect my sanity. If the directors don't release a season 2 we gonna fight. I highly recommend this drama to ppl who like this kind of genre and those who don't like this kind of genre this series may be an opening to this genre

Ugly stories of violence with little redeeming value
Really ugly story of violence and no redeeming aspect to it.The silent hero was supposed to use his smarts but not much was intelligent in the characters decisions.
The violence was over the top and unrealistic in terms of recovery from injuries.
Written for young frustrated males that might not question poor writing as long as violence is the centerpiece?
I can’t stand super quiet characters that as supposed to be a hero when they are bad examples in life and obviously making the wrong choices in life with unrealistic outcomes.

Even better the second time : powerful acting and unforgettable impact
I first watched Weak Hero Class 1 when it was airing, and I remember thinking it was really good. But to be honest, over time I kind of forgot the emotional impact it left on me, so I originally rated it 8.5.After hearing that Season 2 was coming out, I decided to rewatch Season 1, and that’s when I realized how amazing this drama actually is. From the acting, story, production, to the cinematography, everything felt very well done and intentional. It gave me the same strong feelings again, and even deeper this time. That’s why I changed my rating to 9.5.
One thing that really surprised me was the acting. Before watching it for the first time, I didn’t expect much because some of the actors were still relatively new. But they completely exceeded my expectations. You can really feel that they put their heart into their roles, and it made the story much more impactful and believable.
Overall, this drama is intense, emotional, and very memorable. It’s one of those dramas that becomes even better when you rewatch it.

Best I've seen
I didnt see this until 2023 and I think this is my favorite so far. Binged it in one because I could not wait to see what would happen the next episode.Park Ji Hoon is incredible in this series. He has such an amazingly expressive face, especially his eyes. He absolutely carries it and the reason I also then watched 'from a distance spring is green.'
The reluctant between Si Eun, Soo Ho and Beom Seok is wonderful, they have great chemistry and their acting is very strong in this series. Soo Ho brings some much needed comic relief at times. It makes the heartbreak even worse for what happens in the end. The last two episodes are an emotional rollercoaster and I cried like a baby.
Absolutely worth the watch, just keep tissues at hand.

Our world in a Kdrama!
Ten stars in some eyes stands perfect. Nothing is perfect in thisworld, this show and the characters story showed us that better
than anyone ever could.
it showed that even if you have something people want it doesn't
mean you're happy. it doesn't mean you have the happiness which
people should be glad to have.
being silent doesn't mean you accept. accept all the things that are wrong in our world, in the fictional world nor the universe.
The next part of the text might be a little spoiler.. or not I am not sure, I wouldn't say it does but if it does I WArned you..
Beom (one of the characters) you know i hated you. I hate you, even though I understood
you, I understood you so well that it hurt. I watched as you burned
inside but instead of you extinguishing that fire you let it escape
and burn all those around you.
I know sometimes it easier to become the monster that you once
feared and ran away from . And I believe that humans are not born
bad, bad persons are born when life beats them up until they can't
see clear and they have nothing to feel. I don't want to believe in
monsters of birth but Beom still I stopped believing in you. I know
just you're lost. The darkness broke all the lights on the path you
chose, but I really hope you can light them again. .
the "might be a spoiler part end here"
It's true that the reckless violence in this story, it's not right and
seeing it makes me even more sad because our worlds in reality is
quite similar.
People shed blood until the other gives up. Some are ready to bleed 'till the other is nothing but a memory and some burned dust.
When you protect someone with the pounces you give and take it's blurs the line of wrong and right, and it's true nothing is just black and white. That's why I loved watching this show, thinking about
how the things the characters did were rightful or how they were
just so wrong and that why they broke me.
In the end I loved it. This was a little much to my brain and heart
because I cried and cursed so much because of certain
character(s) ... I am not pointing fingers here. okay!
If you like good acting,
a good story where the plot isn't too hard to follow
violence with really amazing fighting scenes
and maybe hating some characters and choosing sides I say watch
this series.... if you don't like those things.. then still watch it
watch it for Park Ji Hoon
okay thank youuu and byeeee!!!
have a good night I am going to sleepy sleep
