High School Return of a Gangster Episode 1 Reactions
this was cute, reading the description this reminded me of the movie: The Dude in Me, which i loved. this kinda along the same lines, but not identical. here given the fact Kim Deuk Pal's body has been cremated i doubt he is getting back into his body. so that a bit sad, that the kid - Song I Heon passed away in despair & sadness, never getting a 2nd chance at a better life.*******************************************************************************************************************************************also like that this is a bit more realistic, as after a month or 2 of training Song I Heon turning into a adult that's been living a rough life, that has turned him hard mentally & physically, was a bit of a reach. so this was cute. even though who doesn't love seeing bullies get their asses handed too them. *****************************************************************************************************************************************btw poor Song I Heon he being neglected at home & also abused verbally by that secretary, his "father" is disgusting for neglecting his only son. & leaving them for her to manipulate & abuse just cause she got power - a direct result of his neglect. no wonder Song I Heon didn't have anyone to turn too & did what he did. kinda heart breaking when u think about it.

Rating it low cuz i dont support queerbaiting and Rpsit in cast But the storyline and execution is really good T~T Im so caught up in my emotions. If it weren't for the queerbaiting and rpst on casting, i'd rate it 10/10. Reminded me of weak hero class 1 (one of my all time favorites)

Do I have to say more,this one have a rapist and removed the blSupporting it once that scum will keep being casted,and as always people will boycott the dramas,but. I guess he pay them enough to keep them quite.We maybe be sick,but you all aren't good either,just so you know you all are supporting the rapist,and the next time he is casted again,all of your contribution was in on it, it's unfair to other actors but it will keep being unfair to all the other actors he will be casted in the future.
