Question: In Korea, are there really no actors born between 2002 and 2004 who can play these kinds of roles? Why do they keep casting guys who are at least 25 or older? Seriously, that second-year student on the rooftop — are we really supposed to believe he looks like a high schooler? He even looks older than the guy with the mullet! 😂😂😂
Koreans are so funny with this — it's like, “Well, he doesn't have a beard, so it'll work.” LMAO. Sorry, but none of them look like high schoolers. Even *Hwang In Yeop*, who’s 34, can pull it off better because he naturally has youthful features. Still, it would be a stretch unless the production used heavy filters and whitening to make him look that young.
The problem with these types of K-dramas — like this one and *Weak Hero Class* — is that there are **no filters**, just basic makeup. And since it's low-coverage, you can clearly see the actors' skin texture, which gives away their age. Skin is a big giveaway: there are 16–17-year-olds with facial hair who still have that soft, youthful skin. But here, even the beardless guys clearly look 25+.
And the fact that it was filmed in 2022? If the actors are 27 now, they were 24 at the time — but still, way too mature-looking to pass for teenagers.
I've always wondered. The actors who often play the bullies in this kind of kdrama, often they have done 2-3 drama as a guest role or yet another kdrama in this genre. Some of them haven't even acted since 2018. The guy with the Mullet played the young version of Cha Eun Woo in “Gangnam Beauty”. I was wondering what else these people do? Because yes, okay, they're actors, but they never shoot, it's almost like they're extras, they've got to be doing something else. Some have Instagram accounts that can bring in money but others or they just have 10-20k. I've always wondered about that, frankly. Acting is a terrible business. A guy who can play less well than you can definitely be more famous because he has more opportunities and voila
Honestly the kdrama is good but it's missing something for me already. I feel like I'm seeing something too simple. I don't know how to say it but so far in no episode have I been speechless with shocked eyes. For me it'll probably be an 8.5/10 max. As for the Ost, I really don't think they're very good here. Anyway, I'm not feeling a Sageuk kdrama as crazy as “The Tale Of Lady Ok” we had earlier this year.
I've just finished episode 15 and I'm pretty sad about the end of Yoon Gap but it was too big to bring him back to life and Yook Sung Jae is 1000 times better as Kang Cheol and everyone knows it. The ending was pretty crazy too 😟
When I start an episode, I play the intro at least 5 times beforehand. It's one of the best intro/ost of 2025.

we have the ost line up of kdrama, it confirms what I said: the music director is the same as the one of Our Beloved Summer i.e. "Nam Hye Seung" however very disappointed we don't have Kim Kyung Hee as ost singer.🥲🥲 I have two hypothesis for the one who sings the intro. Either it's Sion or Hong Isaac.
complete ost lineup is Choi Yuree, 10cm, Sion, Hong Isaac, Dori, and the last Elaine
Yes, I just saw it, they put it on not long ago. I had announced Choi Yur-ree and Sion 6 days ago and also said that the music director was "Nam Hye Seung.
Damn but I'm a monster, I guessed that choi yu ree was going to sing a kdrama for the ost. I didn't even know, I just did a Google search via an app and found 3 names. -Choi Yu-ree - Sion - 10CM
Someone explain to me how Hyunwook manages to act here and also in the “delusion” kdrama, given that he has a starring role in both and that both kdramas are currently being filmed.
This drama is just crazy, already the casting is crazy but we already know that since 2023 the actors announced except they just started shooting 2 months ago for a release in 2026. 😭😭😭

-Choi Yu-ree
- Sion

The intro is probably sung by Sion.
