A webtoon coded drama

I will start this review by saying that if you do not appreciate webtoons or unrealistic stories, you will not be able to enjoy this one. In fact, it sould have a fantasy tag, because I was caught completely out of guard. The show is short and it is pretty obvious that it will have a second season, since it is based on an ongoing webtoon. I thought it was going to be a PG 13 Weak Hero Class, and I did not miss the the target completely.
Honestly, for my taste, it was a little bit uninteresting. I have seen some comments saying that this is a show for kids/teenagers, and I totally agree with that. It is very shonen-anime-like.
The conflicts seem a bit silly, all of the villains are teenagers and all of the adults are useless, being there only to be saved by teenagers as well. I enjoyed the realistic part of fightinhg coreography, making me appreciate the side characters fighting styles, but ML's superhuman strength was a deal breaker for me.
The main group is fun and have a good chemistry, but the main character seems too innocent sometimes. I actually read the first few episodes of the webtoon after starting the show and it appears that Ga Min had some changes in his personality for the drama. He is a little cynical and more aware of his surroundings in the original material, which seems more interesting to me.
In conclusion, it is a short watch, but if you do not enjoy this genre, you probably will not be able to take it seriously (like I did a lot of times).
