I might be biased in this review as I like movies and shows which are set in the olden days especially the 70s and 80s and adding countryside setting and accent to it is just chef's kiss. The OST of this drama is just on another level and has become a constant in my workout playlist lol.
This was such an unexpected fun drama that just made me speechless. The story is about school bullying and how much it affects the victims and those surrounding them and being teenagers their fights are just seen as youthful brawls which are occurring due to their growing hormones. The starting of the story portrays bullying as just another thing which an individual has to go through in order to become an adult.
Till episode 5 it was a funny story where our lead hero is just deceiving everyone to think that he is the real bully which is so hilarious, that all believed him to be and there was not much fighting till episode 5.
Episode 6 had me crying as the whole episode dealt with how real bullying is and how much it hurts the victim and their family, but we also get to see that our protagonist is not like all the other bullies.
Afterwards its just the training of the hero and him learning to fight and realizing that to take revenge one has to get their hands dirty but does not have to become like the thugs.
All the fight scenes were done so well, especially the last boss fight was amazing.
All in all a very fun experience, but the subtitles were so bad, I wish there were good subs, I was able to understand most of the Korean as I've learnt some, but the subs were just so off in most of the times. May be because the dialogues were in satoori (Korean dialect) so it might be difficult to translate.
