Hierarchy Episode 7

the plot is kind of all over the place but we move

Honestly so sad for Jae-i and Kim Rian. They truly loved each other and were forced to be apart by their families. and other social bs.Ms. Han is a two-time felon lmfao. Sad for her but she deserved to go to jail.And the way the school knew it was her who f killed a student.. -_- ... But they didn't do anything about it because Woojin intervened somehow. (Thankfully for Ms. Han it was a scholarship student and not a high profile student lol....)I liked Woojin this whole time thinking he was the most chill and minding his business, only for it to be revealed he knew the whole time about the videos AND he told Jae-i's father about her secret pregnancy, ruining her life and hurting his best friend Rian,, all because he liked He-ra ?! In the process, keep in mind, dropping his teacher gf who he went to all the trouble of covering up her hit and run of the mc's brother ?!?So,, decidedly NOT minding his own business lmao. He was sitting on info since EPISODE ONE, but-- wait... lowkey that's so minding his own business of him. He was like "I know all this stuff but I'm staying Out Of It." -- until he didn't. -_-'''''' and he betrayed Jae-i and Rian to try to get He-ra.. but whatever. Jae-i's dad is probably the most evil character but unfortunately suffers no consequences. >:/Ultimately it's a show about high school (and high-societal) bullying and a guy who comes in to make sure they all pay for their behaviour. Kang Ha the Punisher?? He was so right for that though. Someone at the school hit his brother with a car and got away with it scot free, like-- yeah! I'd want some kind of justice too! And it being his goddamn homeroom teacher,, she was always so rude to him, too, lmfao. Mad that the kid who's brother she killed wants to find out who killed his brother. okayyyyyyy.....🙄I like how the adults get punished for their actions too. Not all of them, though, unfortunately. The most powerful remain untarnished somehow, but the lesser adults - Ms. Han; The Principle - are thrown under the bus to save face for the likes of Rian's mother and Woojin's father. So the scholarship kids got justice for the way the rich kids treated them, and the rich kids payed the consequences for their actions (Hurray!) but the rich adults are allowed to continue to be corrupt, evil bullies with no consequences :'''') ah what a society we live in.Kang Ha not accepting Rian's apology is very valid. Even though Rian is genuinely sorry for acting like the ruler of the school and allowing or telling his minions to bully Kang In-han, Kang Ha has every right to say "you can apologise a thousand times and it won't bring him back". Just because Rian was shown the error of his ways and is regretful doesn't mean he is now somehow innocent in the situation. He still did all of that stuff. Jae-i was the only one who felt bad about all the injustice at the school BEFORE being forced to see it by Kang Ha, and if Jae-i hadn't spoken up to Rian and told him to say sorry, he might not have even apologised at all. It does seem like he has a good heart, deep down, though, and has realised that he doesn't want to act that way anymore, especially after standing up to his mother.

So Hierarchy bows out with a whimper rather…

So Hierarchy bows out with a whimper rather than a roar, with a disappointingly obvious finale and a whole lot of fluff to pad out this chapter. This absolutely did not need to be 75 minutes long and the pacing throughout this show has been really poor.The chemistry between everyone has been bad across the board if I’m honest, and it feels like the creators tried to mimic Elite while also adding in Korean values, and failing spectacularly. None of the characters are particularly likable and the only “good” guy, Kang Ha, is pretty bland on the whole and struggles to stand out.This one definitely had potential but all of that is squandered in this disappointing foray. Hopefully there won’t be a second season as Hierarchy is definitely not as glamorous and promising as its trailer made it out to be. What a shame.
