Does this worth watching it??

Yes, I should say this is worthy of your precious time. it's kinda a mysterious drama. the both actors have done a great great job. their chemistry between each other is the everything. I really wish there were more scenes between them. my points for this drama is 95/100. The ending is kinda confusing and I felt like it was rushed. I watched this drama when it was on going and I couldn't wait for the next episode. but I never re watched it. But I think i should rewatch it, and experience what you guys feel when watching it straight, without waiting for the next episode. However, I recommend this drama.

remarkable school thriller

I was pretty hooked after the first few episodes so I ended up binging the entire series in one sitting. This series gave a similar resemblance to Class of Lies where it's about solving the murder of a classmate and rewinding on the backstories of each character.

The plot was really intriguing I'd say up until the second to last episode. The scriptwriters did a goodjob of keeping it suspenseful and mysterious however, as I've read some of the other comments. the ending felt way too rushed and cliche in comparison to the level it was at in the beginning. The main characters became almost supplemental at the very end, and the ending wasn't satisfactory because it was way too open-ended.

However, there are a lot of great qualities to the series, the supporting characters all did a really good job, everything seemed convincing and I couldn't really predict what was going to happen next. It kept me on the edge for the most part. The soundtrack went really well with the mood, I appreciated the main theme song. Impressive acting from both leads, Solomon Park is so cute lol.

I'd recommend this series if you're into school thriller and mystery.

horrifying


Ok I just finished this now and damn this was so bad.

For real, I'm freaking out at how bad this plot is. They crammed so much shit into just 12 eps.
I don't even know HOW I managed to finish this.
First of all, I HATE school series, seriously, I almost died of angry when I found out it was a school drama. And more than that, I hate school dramas when the shitty kids try to be killers or cops. It just makes me angry. So for me it was ridiculous in the very first ep cuz of the fucking girl trying to pursue her brother's murder on her own. I don't like to hate girls, but she pissed me off.

The whole drama of Ji Sooheon's mom drive me crazy too. Like, WHY???? is he just trying to be Kim Do Gi??? BOY, YOU ARE NOT A HERO, STOP! and come on, THEY KILL THE FUCKING WOMAN??? EVEN AFTER ALL THAT??? Seriously, he could have chosen to do so many things, like sell drugs or take out bank loans, but NO he had to become the superman.

I personally think the best character was Osung, he was the least boring, really. He had a purpose to spend his eighteen goddamn years of his life on and he's probably a sociopath, so yeah, the least insufferable.

Jaebum was doing well, but the fucking dual personality plot was so awful, and they just forced it down their throats without trying to make sense of it. Even more Chanmi telling him to "go away", DO YOU KNOW HOW DUAL PERSONALITY WORKS???? It was totally irresponsible and thrown around.

That policewoman was dumber than a door and I just wanted to pull that ugly hair out.

And all that weird queer baiting was soooo unnecessary.

I was also pissed because, they put a lot of unnecessary characters and didn't delve into the personality of any of them.

Even with all that shit they couldn't even convincingly pose a murderous student.

Everything was poorly done and they didn't even care about the ridiculous hole they left when they tried to shove it all up the Jaebum's ass. Seriously, it was ridiculous.

After all, I think one of the most frustrating points was that nothing was really surprising, I could already predict who the killer was and who had tried to kill Jaebum before the middle of the drama, depressing.

I'm mad because this shit wasted my time and the ending wasn't even good, really. They didn't even put real violence into it.

This was the second bad drama I watched with Lomon and I hope I don't have to see his face again.

Nerve-wracking and exciting but very underwhelming ending

Slight spoiler?-
The first 8 episodes were really fun to watch, last 4 episodes got progressively boring - also morals where?
Acting by the supporting characters wasnt the best although gi osung and seo ji hoon did great even towards the end when their characters were barley making sense (in terms of motives).
This isn't a romance drama but the fl and ml had great teamwork and chemistry, and their gradual friendship was natural which made me root for them to get together. But somehow, the moments that were meant to be romantic at the end felt awkward - the whole drama just wasnt wrapped up well which is really disappointing because i was actually really enjoying it and looking forward for new eps.
Fun overall. solid 8/10

I would have given this a 10 if it weren't for that lousy ending.

Other than that, this is what I call a perfect binge. The entire time I was so intrigued by the suspense, and I ADORE Park Solomon and Shin Yeeun :) Seeing them together made my heart feel all fuzzy (although I wish they had more screen time together T-T). Also I'm quite impressed by Chae Sang Woo's acting, his character made me want to die every time he showed up on the screen LOL.

I'm not so great at reviews but I felt the need to write something as I feel this drama is very special to me. Happy watching to whoever sees this!

The Best Kdrama of 2022

I am not a big fan of thriller and fights but the "revenge" just change my mind. Ji Sooheon, Ok Chanmi, Gi Osung, Park Wonseok (Ok Chankyu), Kook Jihyun, Jaebum are the names that till stay in my mind forever the icons these are. i love the casting a lot, the plots are so good like youll be tempting to watch the next episode. I feel like it had the most bare minimum promotion disney shouldve let this go to netflix idk... Anyways fell in love with Yeeun after this i need more of both of these main leads also thank you writernim for not killing ji sooheon😭😭

a drama about all the taboo topics!!!

This was such a refreshing show to watch! The drama discussed very delicately but at the same time very rawly different taboo topics (in Korea and well honestly all around the world) such as lgbt+ relationships, basically corruption in police system, different health concerns (mental & physical) and so much more. I personally think that this wasn't your typical revenge drama, but actually so much more than that. I really loved all the actors who played in this drama!

Intense, Suspenseful and Dark...

'Revenge of Others' is a masterful tapestry of emotion, mystery, and raw human resilience. From the very first episode, it grips your soul with its intense storytelling and hauntingly beautiful cinematography. The characters are so intricately developed that you feel their pain, hope, and desperation as if they were your own. The show's exploration of justice and redemption struck a chord deep within me, reminding me of the fragile line between right and wrong. The performances are nothing short of extraordinary—each actor brings a depth that makes you believe in their suffering and triumphs. The tone is both dark and hopeful, weaving a complex emotional landscape that left me contemplative long after the credits rolled. This drama isn't just entertainment; it's a poignant reflection on human strength in the face of despair. A truly unforgettable journey*

Everything a youth revenge drama should be

This is exactly what I wanted from a youth revenge drama — the story was nerve-wracking, the cliffhangers were intense, and the chemistry was top-notch. There is the perfect balance between intense scenes and quiet moments you would expect from two teenagers who were lucky enough to find each other despite all the tension and uncertainty in their lives.

I watched each week's episodes with bated breath and I think the pacing was fantastic as well, with bits and pieces of the story being unveiled each episode. The communication between the characters was both intriguing and satisfying and there's even very subtle layers of social commentary around law enforcement if you squint.

Would definitely recommend.

NOTE: I think it's also necessary to say that this drama is not at all an accurate depiction of DID and there are problems with the "evil alter ego" trope — this is still a great watch but everyone should keep that in mind.

IS IT A MASTERPIECE OR WHAT?

The first time I saw this kdrama it was wonderful, they can act so well the plot is super unique and every detail is connected to another topic in a perfect way, the end will leave you speechless, you will have a thousand different suspects during each episode but in reality The culprit is the person everyone trusted. I've watched it twice and it was always worth it. I've searched everywhere for other dramas like this, but none have ever made me feel the way this one did. I have nothing to say just one word WOW they have such a beautiful tension between them and make such a beautiful couple

Excellent so far

I watched the first 2 episodes and man this show is so good,The way the story unfolds is so intriguing and all the actors are great in their roles. JI Suhyeon is my favourite character so far and Lomon has done a great job with it.Ok Chanmi is also so good. 2 episodes in this show has me hooked and i cannot wait to watch the next episode.I highly recommend this show to you trust me you won't regret it. Also the music in this show is really good too , the music is a breath of fresh air,it will keep you hyped. The plot is very simple but the way it moves forward is what makes this show unlike anything you have seen before and on top of that the action scenes are thrilling as well.

Slow burn

I tried to finish watching this drama but I can't bring myself to finish it. It's too slow and every episode that I've watched so far is repetitive. You have the main FL doing stupid things like answering encrypting messages that someone keeps leaving in her locker...You would think if you answer one cryptic message by showing up where there's no activity happening and get clocked in the head with a brick...don't answer anymore cryptic letters but she does. While on that subject-who survives by getting clocked on the head with a brick??? The girl got discharged the next day with no injuries to the brain!!! Be real guys!!

Then you have other male characters being their usual-bullies and the other female who looks like a bully herself bullying the main FL for no apparent reason. I can't go on about this drama because it seems like I covered everything because every episode IS THE SAME!!!
I usually give it to episode 5 but I just can't bring myself to finish. I don't understand the high ratings this drama received. Another Korean drama that I've dropped which is no surprise.

In the 4½ years that I've been watching Korean dramas I've dropped a lot within the past two years. I hate rom-coms and can't seem to find any good dramas without the sappy romance so what else is there to watch?

I was going to watch Fiery Priest 2 but everybody has the same comments and it's not good so I guess I'm just going to have to put my obsession of Korean dramas on the back burner until I can actually find something worthy to watch...without the cheesiness of comedies and sappy romances of course....It just seems like that's all these Korean dramas have to offer these days.
