Life's fair.... if treated fair as well.

School is meant for studying, but not all students find joy in it. So what could be better than studying? Fighting? I doubt violence is ever a solution in life. 🤔📚

But in Study Group, that’s exactly what it shows. In Yuseong Technical High School, it feels like a place that raises gangsters, controlled by a student feared like a monster. Until the recent addition — the so-called dumbest student in school — dared to form a group where students study to enter college… and fight against that injustice. 👊🔥

This Korean drama raised my adrenaline after such a long time. I thought it would be boring at first, but I truly appreciated the friendship and bond that grew between the characters and their drive to reach their goal. The action stunts were stunning and kept me excited all throughout. ⚡🎬

The characters may look ordinary, but I like that each of them was given the chance to tell their own story. 🌟

Except the villain. His face was never scary, but he was intimidating — and that’s because of the actor portraying him. It ws a sublt eyet great portrayal. Still, I felt a bit sad that his character wasn’t explored much. Even though he was a villain, I was hoping to see the reasons behind his actions, especially since there were a few moments near the finale that showed remorse. 🥺

Hwang Min Hyun was amazing as the lead, and likewise, Han Ji Eun was beautiful in her feisty role as a teacher. 👏✨ I also loved discovering new favorites — Choi Woo Min as the capable villain and Hong Min Ki, who was compelling despite having only a few scenes. 💫

I was so ecstatic during the finale episode because I read that there will be a season two, and I truly can’t wait. I wonder who will be Han Wool’s successor. 😭🔥
