Trigger Warning needed!!!
All in all I really enjoyed this drama. It shows the struggles of teenage boys in Korea I assume who might have to fear the possibility of getting bullied. However, some aspects of the story seemed a bit over-exaggerated to me. Also there were some things that just didn’t make sense to me or made me so angry and confused.
First, the good things were the overall story and the beautiful friendship that was being told. This drama also showed the reality of loneliness and how different people dealt with it differently and somehow all became friends. In general I also really liked all the different characters we saw.
Now to the not so good things about this drama and why I “only” gave it an 8.
First of all tho, ! TRIGGER WARNING ! People having a hard time watching shows that show bullying and domestic violence should probably not watch this drama.
So at the beginning the drama was going well. Basically up until Gil-su was caught the drama was a 10 for me. After that, when Beom-seok started acting out I was getting a bit frustrated with him. Did he really get jealous of Su-Ho because of the girl????? I just don’t understand! He should have used the money to pay the fighter to beat up his fake father! I did feel sorry for Beom-Seok too but thats not a valid excuse to try to injure or even kill one of your old best friends!!! just because he was giving some attention to a girl and following her instagram etc? Idk I got really annoyed and he kinda destroyed the drama for me a bit. His behaviour was so childish I just couldn’t comprehend…
I think the producers should have continued the Gil-su storyline maybe by involving some other gangsters. This waa maybe we could have seen the bullies and the three boys working together to fight for justice and then somehow overcome the bullying. Maybe the handsome cousin could have appeared more too (I was sad he didn’t show up anymore…)
Also tbh some scenes were too exaggerated and confusing especially towards the end. What happened to Su-Ho??? Did he die??? I didn’t really understand it!!!
I will be watching season 2 for sure hoping for some old faces to come back. I really really liked Su-Ho tho so if he really died then I will be SO sad…
