This kdrama really hit the nail!
Bullying is such a prevalent, occurring, and nonstop issue that has been addressed countless times, and this kdrama really brought light to how serious it really is. I live in America, and I thought our bullying system was bad, but Korea's is a whole other thing. The fact that this story and plot were created based on inspiration from tragic, controversial events is genuinely heartbreaking. Imagining going through these experiences is hard on its own, and this kdrama really brought these cases to life. Teach You a Lesson really dove into these hard discussions of topics such as obsession, drugs, and gambling, letting everything play out in itself. It's safe to say I thoroughly enjoyed watching this quick watch.
I'm glad the cases were resolved cleanly, and they brought justice and showed the victims' stories and what they have gone through. It's devastating that shows like these have to be developed in order to illustrate just how crazy bullying is taken and not accounted for enough in Korea, but this show really did its part. I'm pretty sure there have been protests surrounding this kdrama, which really shows how much netizens and citizens of Korea are not owning up to their faults. Conversely, there have also been rumors regarding a second season, which I'm all open to. I would love to expand on the story and maybe learn more about the characters and their backstory. Furthermore, I would also like to see more real-life inspired bullying cases to show the harsh reality of school in Korea.
This kdrama really showed how Korea isn't all that perfect. People wanting to live in Korea primarily because of kdramas is terribly embarrassing, so I hope this show really proves that living there isn't all that great; there are pros, but also cons. The experience of high school life may not be what you expected, and it's just absurd how many bullying cases are seen every day in the education system.
If there isn't something like the ERPB yet, then Korea should definitely implement a bureau like this one.
