Not Real Weak Hero but a Good Fanfiction
Let me say this first! This is not real Weak Hero, but a good fanfiction that is like a different universe with same characters and not so similar events. It could've been a masterpiece with something like 50 min x 16 ep x 3 seasons but let's say if you didn't read webtoon, then it was a good drama with a different story.Especially the first season had very comprehensive story with a deep understanding of the characters but, a huge BUT, the background story with Suho/Stephen was only 7-8 chapters of the webtoon, so the 8 episode was enough to create an emotional story with a good story line. On the other hand, the conflict between Union and Sieun/Gray's friends was the main story of the webtoon which is like 267 episodes. Therefore, they had to rush the story in second season of it, which wasn't a good idea if you ask me. It didn't give me the same feeling with the first season. Firstly, the characters wasn't as deep as they were in first season. Secondly, they had to skip all of the important characters related to Union or Sieun, important events and everything else to keep it simple and short.
The best part of it was the casting. All actors did a good job. I loved how Lee Jun Young portrayed Wolf/Geum Seong Je. He was as crazy as Wolf since the first scene. Donald/Na Baek Jin could be better, but no matter who, there will always be a better choice for all the characters.
Would I watch it again? Definitely no but I will read the webtoon again. :)

I like the acting!
I started to this series for Jun and I got what I want. Seeing him in different roles makes me realize how good he is at acting! Also, the rest of the cast was also good so it was a bonus for me. I gave the story 8.5 because I really disliked the female characters, the teacher and the prosecuter. Sometimes I just wanted to ask "Why?!" while shaking them. Also, I didn't like the end but you'll see why when you watch it.I hardly rewatch a series so probably I will never rewatch it again.

Just because of the final, I gave it 7/10.
Even though the general story was interesting, and the cast was incredible, I had to give 7/10 because of the final. From this point, there is spoiler.... SPOILER...
When he broke up with her, even though I didn't approve it or agree with him, I could understand his logic. He was trying to protect her from getting hurt. However, I couldn't understand why he sent his mother to tell such a lie. He already told her that he went to abroad, just could've said that he couldn't go to her due to an issue related to university. Why did he try to hurt her with "his sudden death" if she was going to learn his illness? If I was Rara, I would never have forgave him because of that lie. I don't care if he was ill or suffering as well. He was suffering because of his illness, it was something real, but Rara was suffering for nothing. Not just Rara, but everybody in Eunpo was sad even after 5 years. They didn't deserve it.
