There are those who will find it entertaining, while others may be looking for a plotline that's more committed to non-violent solutions. Go to Full Review Jae-Ha Kim Jae-Ha Kim (Substack) 07/28/2023
3.5/4
Park Ji-hoon is almost unrecognizable from his Wanna One days. Leading this cast, which also includes Choi Hyun-wook and Hong Kyung, Park is so intensely good as a bullied boy who uses classical conditioning to fight back against his tormentors. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Cat N @Kat223 Feb 25 Absolutely loved it! Amazing acting and great story! See more Jacob F. @Chishiya Jan 31 After watching Season 1 all I gotta say is. Newtons 2nd Law. Thats my review! See more rauanne t @RT71633617 Dec 28 Em apenas 8 episódios o diretor sumin conseguiu fazer personagens complexos e viciantes.A história é impecável até o final,sem falar da atuação do jihoon e choi hyonwook estarem espetaculares. See more Bradley G @Bradrad13 Dec 18 I think they have done a good job on making this show, it overdoes the violence, but shows a fairly good view of what Korean schools are like. I would absolutely watch this! Disappointing how they basically restarted the series for season 2. pretty much just started again but a different school. Hope season 3 comes out! See more Andrew C. @AndrewC4 Nov 29 The start of the story and the character backgrounds were convincing, but once the show tried to explain away why the authorities haven’t been involved it became too unrealistic. Why did the police show up and say “this isn’t our jurisdiction”? The police of the proper jurisdiction should have showed up. Why did they show up without a search warrant when they have enough probable cause for not only search warrant but to detain the owner of that property. And even after showing up without a warrant, the police should have stayed until the search warrant was approved, not just leave… Everyone in this show behaves too irrationally and it becomes too inconceivable that any of this would happen. It’s still entertaining though, but more as a background show, in my opinion. Stopped watching after episode 3. See more Rebeca R @RT10453913 Oct 27 A show with the perfect amount of comedy, drama, violence and character development. The soundtrack is superb and the variety of cinematic shots is amazing. The script is also top notch. The acting is amazing, you truly find empathy for every character in the show. Would recommend to anyone. Must watch. See more Read all reviews
