Haha you're welcome! I think i'll write a few more important points in another comment later because the more i think about the show, the more interesting it gets, and i find new elements to talk about!

They actually had more chemistry for one episode, but he also beat up Eui Gyeom and almost killed him, so i can't get past that 😂 Though, i think what really works with Eui Gyeom and Seung Jun's realtionship is that he was the voice of reason. Eui Gyeom needed to hear it, but he still didn't follow his advice at all. The difference with his relationship with Yoon Gi is that he was able to understand him more and accepts him just the way he is.

Yess thank you! I had more to say but my comment would have been too long! 😂There are so many things to analyze actually, like the symbol of the broken walkman and Yoon Gi fixing it, silently telling Eui Gyeom that he doesn't have to be broken, he can heal 😭

Honestly it was a good watch for me! All actors did a great job overall and it felt genuine. I love how complex Eui Gyeom is, how he's not supposed to be perfect, how his fighting is not perfect either. I truly think the fights reflect what he's feeling. The first four episodes show the intensity of his bottled up emotions and the last episodes demonstrate how Eui Gyeom he's losing himself and doesn't even know why he's fighting in the first place. By hurting others, he is acting like his brother when he was hurting him, because he is used to be physically and emotionally abused, and it's the only way he can express his pain. I actually finds really interesting how it's not really a show about fighting and bullying, it's more than that, a psychological journey of a teenager who is a survivor. Eui Gyeom is fighting himself more than others, as if there were two parts against each other within him, with one portrayed by his brother. And that's where this show totally differs from WCH despite some similarities i think. I also like how Eui Gyeom finds some form of freedom and embraces who he is, and through his friendship with Yoon Gi, he discovers how raw, imperfect and ruthless he can be and yet still be accepted. Anyway, I highly recommend it! There were a few issues and the story could have been developed more with more episodes, but among all the school action dramas, this show did its own thing and it surprised me in many aspects.

I think that's because the fights mirror how Eui Gyeom is feeling. At first he lets all his bottled up emotions out and go crazy and then, he gradually loses himself in the process, making the fights lack all their meaning as well. Because he doesn't find any purpose in them, he just wants to hurt like his brother was hurting him when he was depressed. There's actually something really interesting here, and it could have been even better with more time to develop everything!

Not really, but it's better than last week with eps 5 and 6 😭

Yeah it was weird at times, i thought that was because she had her face done and her facial expressions didn't come out properly...

I'm confused by the rating and the bad comments to be honest. The rating is actually not that low, but i hesitated to watch it because of the comments. Though, i decided to give it a go nonetheless, and i'm so surprised by how much i liked it?? I'm never gonna trust people on here ever again! It wasn't perfect, there were a few issues here and there, and the production is nothing out of the ordinary, but it has a nice storytelling and compelling characters. This was so touching and i really like how it dealt with mental health and the harshness of the music industry. I just felt so much for Jin Woo, i wanted him to be happy and to succeed so bad. His story was really appealing to me and i was so invested and rooting for him. He deserves everything in the world honestly. Ryeo Un did an incredible job by the way, he really impressed me!! The show focuses mainly on the relationship of Su Hyeon and Yoo Jin Woo, but the highlight for me was his friendship with Shim Jin Woo and Ji Yeong, it was so cute and refreshing! The characters' development was really interesting as well! I've seen people complaining about Su Hyeon but her growth and her moving forward from her guilt was quite good. I don't know if it's a problem of media literacy, cause i think they did great with her character. We start not liking her and grow to understand her. She made some stupid decisions and she was selfish, but she genuinely learned from her mistakes. Ultimately, she saved Jin Woo and he saved her. I think that's beautiful. I don't know if it struck a cord with me because i love music and family oriented shows, but it did something to me. For what it is i think it's a good and inspiring show and i recommend it if you want to watch something easy to follow with drama and realistic life struggles.

I have to say, i have thoughts about these two eps. There's definitely a big shift and a change of tone compared to the first four episodes, but i'll wait next week when it's completed to give my final opinion!

I hope so, but we'll have to wait 2 years 😭

Why do you find him boring and unappealing though? i'm curious

It's not surprising though, some scenes were really similar, and it's not just about being the same genre. It's not even a bad thing, both are good shows and the high school action dramas are getting pretty popular. But One High school heroes appears to be quite different in its storytelling despite having a few similarities with WHC and i really appreciate it!

I can't believe I watched the new episodes with such bad subtitles. Bro said "cool" in english and it was auto translated to "exorcism" i'm dying 😂 It's my fault for not being patient, but oh well, I still enjoyed it! Looking forward to next episodes, but it's way too short! I have no idea how they are going to wrap this up in two eps...

I mean this is something that happens all the time in American teen shows as well! I don't know how it works in SK, but i think it's because it's easier to work with adults than minors. By hiring 25+ year old adults they can work longer hours, do more intricate stunts, and i guess they have better acting experience too. But I kinda agree, they could have least casted actors only between 19 and 25 to make it more realistic 'cause there's no way you can make people believe they are 17-18 year old kids when most of them look like grown ass men 😂

He may look younger than the others, but i agree, he definitely looks his age 😂

Seemed like a Weak hero rip-off at first, but it actually has its own flavor! I really like it so far, i can't wait to see more. Eui Gyeom is even more unhinged than Sieun, how is that even possible? 😂 But jokes aside, my boy really needs therapy and a good hug, i hate to watch him suffer like this 😢

Lmao true, but i kinda liked it, it's giving Kick-Ass 😂

Oooh i loved watching Oofuri, good times! Mihashi's facial expressions were always priceless! I had this picture saved for years lol

I honestly wasn't expecting the rollercoaster of emotions this was going to be! At first, I almost stopped watching because I thought the beginning of the first episode was a little corny. But I kept watching for the comedy which was really good in my opinion, and then I just gradually got invested in the story. I love how the show talks about guilt, grief, love, friendship, family, in such a beautiful way. I teared up so many times. Also the little trio was so fun to watch, i loved them together! I had a great time watching this and I really recommend it if you want to watch a show which balances well between comedy and drama!

It was interesting, but something was missing for me. I wasn't that invested in the story, but i like the training arc, the mc's development and how he never gives up, this trope always works! I gave this movie a 7.5, it was alright overall! There's apparently going to be a series as a sequel, so i'm kinda curious how this will go.
