A Dark & Thought-Provoking Thriller
The Premise: A Boarding School or a Prison?
Home School is a mysterious boarding school set deep in a remote forest. Every three years, it selects a new "generation" of no more than thirteen students based on specific criteria. While it is marketed to wealthy families as an elite school with a unique curriculum and every comfort, the reality is far darker. With its strict rules and total isolation, the school feels more like a high-security prison than an educational institution.
My Personal Take: The Cycle of Trauma
What I learned most from this drama is how deeply trauma changes a child’s behavior and the difficult journey toward healing.
Family & Abandonment: The series highlights how children today face immense trauma within their families. Even when they love their parents and give their best just to receive a little care and attention, they are often met with neglect or total abandonment.
Societal Standards: The drama throws a sensitive light on the current scenario where certain groups—specifically mentioned as "females/males"—are judged or labeled "wrong" simply for trying to live according to their own wishes.
A "Thrill" with a Message: It manages to address these sensitive matters in a very engaging, "thrill-way" that keeps you on the edge of your seat.
The Lessons Learned
The story is truly great because it shows that there are many things in this world that need to change regarding how we treat children. The way the characters heal from their trauma is a powerful lesson for the audience.
Final Verdict
If you enjoy thrillers, mysteries, and youth-centered stories that tackle heavy psychological themes, Home School is a must-watch. It’s an 18-episode journey that will make you question the standards of our society and the true meaning of "home."
