Fandom rant
I feel like to actually enjoy this drama you need to be more immersed in the story than your average action focused dramas.
I mean, to get the full experience, it's best to read the weak hero webtoon. Although you'll be quite disappointed in the live action, so I recommend watching it first and THEN reading the webtoon version.
I really liked how they gave beomseok such a realistic character and it became quite difficult to hate him. (Not for most people, but me at least...)
I could go on for HOURS taking about him, his motives, his feelings, his thought process.
But most people in this fandom dont appreciate that. They only like you if you ship suho with sieun, and oh boy don't even get me started on how annoying this is.
They dumb down their entire characters as just them being in love with each other, and also SWEAR they're canon, because the director said it!! I promise you we do not care. They would be canon if they had romantic dialogue in the drama itself. Where is that? Nowhere. They also swear weak hero is a bl which I find hilarious lol.
Anyhow. This is just me ranting about the issues within the fandom...so spare yourself from joining really. There is nothing interesting in here only people shipping jihoon and hyunwook mindlessly, making sexual comments on them, and overall they're just weird and disgusting. Not worth wasting your time in reasoning with them.
[Rant below contains season 2 characters/spoilers]
The webtoon has a decent fandom, they're quite the opposite. The ships vary and they don't execute your first born for not shipping Gray (sieun) x Stephen (suho). Actually, Sieun x Seongje (wolf) is quite popular. But the ships aren't the point anyway, I'm just pointing it out!
We do miss the webtoon characters. Jake would've been a smart addition to the cast as they could've progressed Seongje's character with him. But I guess 8 episodes weren't enough for so many character arcs so its understandable somewhat... Seriously, should've been a 16 episode per season drama.
[HUGE SPOILER]
Also, I really really didn't like what they did to baekjin's character. They killed him off right when he got interesting. Seriously? They did not even explain ANYTHING about his backstory or even his motives. That made me frustrated. He could've progressed further and be an actually important character.
Thats all. Overall im very biased as this is my favorite drama and im very deep within the fandom, it's a big part of who I am. I have a lot of complaints, but I can't bring myself to rate it anything other than 10 stars. Peace out yall (seongtak on top)
