Weak Hero Class 1 (2022)

böyle mükemmel bir uyarlama hakkında ne diyebilirim ki?

konu uyarlamalar olunca hele ki en sevdiğim webtoonların uyarlamaları olunca epey gergin oluyorum ama kardeş bu nedir? webtoonu bir kenara koyarak başlarsam gerçekten kusursuz bir dizi benim için. he webtoonla beraber incelersek çok fazla farklılıklar var normalde bu ne be diye girişerek uyarlayana ana bacı söverdim ama önüme kusursuz bir dizi koydukları için susuyorum. en sevdiğim şey karakter gelişimidir çok güzel işlenmiş. başrol bey çok güzel oynuyor hele elini pencereye geçirdiği sahnede az daha bende ağlıyordum. maşallah nazar değmesin zaten duyduğuma göre en iyi oyuncu ödülüne almış valla hak ediyor. birisine kdrama önersem düşünmeden ilk sıralarda öneririm (sanki çok kdrama izledim de). asıl karakterleri ve 2.sezonu heyecanla bekliyorum.

A história mais dolorida que já assisti

Um drama extremamente forte, sensível e impactante. Weak hero teve um efeito sobre mim que eu não esperava ter, me causou ânsia, angústia, medo, surpresa e ódio. Toda a história é um emarranhado de coisas que eram pra dar certo e deram MUITO errado, e isso prende demais quem tá assistindo, isso foi o que aconteceu comigo também.
A história desses três amigos foi uma das coisas mais tristes e doloridas que eu vi, e não tô falando apenas das cenas que realmente causavam dores físicas (as de violência) mas também aquelas que nos aflingiam pelo simples fato de que a amizade deles ia se esvaindo e se quebrando cada vez mais. Sieun eu vou te guardar no meu coração, eu quero te ver mais sorrir nessa nova temporada e espero que sohoo esqueça de tudo e viva. Bum seok foi o que mais errou, o que tinha tudo pra tentar mudar sua história ao encontrar os dois meninos mas não, o ódio o consumiu e ele ficou cego, talvez a história dele seja a mais triste. Esse drama me fez ver tudo de uma nova perspectiva. Jihoon você é um ator foda.

GREAT WATCH!!!

"Weak Hero Class 1" offers a refreshing take on the typically intense theme of school bullying in Korean dramas. Unlike many others in this genre that can be emotionally taxing, this drama manages to balance intensity with a sense of empowerment and justice. Yeon Shi Eun, the fearless male lead, stands out as a small but mighty protagonist who uses his wit to outsmart bullies, even when physically overpowered. His journey intertwines with Ahn Soo Ho, a skilled fighter, and Oh Beom Seok, a transfer student escaping bullying.

However, Beom Seok's character takes a frustrating turn due to his deep-seated insecurities, causing rifts among friends and leading to serious consequences, particularly for Soo Ho. The story explores themes of loyalty, revenge, and the complexities of teenage relationships amidst adversity. It portrays Shi Eun's unyielding determination to protect his friends and confront injustice head-on, even in a new school where challenges await.

The drama captivates with its compelling characters and intense confrontations, though not without its heart-wrenching moments. Shi Eun's moral compass, while strong against bullies, raises questions about the limits of justice and forgiveness. The narrative builds anticipation for future developments, promising a continuation that fans eagerly await in the upcoming season.

Recomendada si no te importa que el 90% sean peleas y 100% amistad preciosa.

*TW: Bullying, peleas, un poco de sangre, maltrato.*

Soy de las que le dan cierta grima tantas peleas tan fuertes, pero no hasta el punto de no poder verlo, así que si no es lo tuyo, esta no es tu serie, ya que son palizas en cada episodio.

Me encantan las series sobre la amistad y esta claramente lo es. Quiero muchísimo a Sieun y Sooho y hacen sus papeles increíblemente bien. El hecho de que Sooho es el único que consigue sacarle UNA sonrisa a Sieun... MI CORAZÓN. Y el personaje de Beomseok, increíble y el actor es que lo ha hecho perfecto.

Aviso de que te va a dar mucha rabia todo, te vas a cabrear y tu misme vas a querer pegar a todo el mundo jajajaja

La historia no es súper profunda, pero te muestra un poco el background de cada personaje principal y por lo que leí por ahí, es algo que no hacen en el webtoon.

No le pongo 10 por la falta de realismo. ¿Con tremendas palizas como no están todos muertos? jajaja ¿O al menos que lleguen a clase con algo más que unas tiritas y con suerte, una escayola? jajaja

Pero entiendo que al ser una adaptación de un webtoon, este tipo de webtoons no son lo más realistas, igual que en mangas o animes. Se dan palizas y casi nunca pasa anda grave jajaja

El final tuve que buscar en google exactamente que pasó en una cosa, porque hay una escena que te deja como... wait, pero... ¿ha pasado o no? Pero el último capítulo es una PASADA. En ese sí veréis más sangre.

Painful But Beautiful Watch

I've held off watching this drama for a while now, mostly because I didn't catch it while it was airing. Then I kept wondering all this time if it actually lives up to the hype or is it just because of the cast. Truth be told, it's definitely worth the hype. It's beautifully made -- from the story to the acting, it was just perfect. I've actually read the first few chapters of Weak Hero on webtoon way before the drama came out, so my expectations were really high. Boy, did they jump over my expectations.

Now, let's get down to the review. The story was just made so realistically. Normally, I don't necessarily resonate with negatively developed characters, but Beom Seok's character touched my heart deeply. I know, he's like the most hated character because of what he did, but I completely understand where he's coming from. Although immoral actions are inexcusable, his story is truly one of a kind. I say this as I've also been in his position before -- the 'leftover' friend with no one to turn to. It's suffocating, especially when you'd just transferred schools. I've been there. When he tried to look for different 'friends', I understood it all too well. Everyone, if they were in his place, would do the same thing. The people you thought were your friends made you feel like a lost dog tagging along every time. Yes, they might not have meant it, but to Beom Seok, it was. Considering that he was bullied heavily to the point he had to receive therapy, it must have been so painful to see yourself be 'replaced' by someone else in your friend group. Just like what Si Eun had said, Beom Seok was feeling lonely. But to put it into Suho's perspective, it was also something to be angry about. I think what had to be done was for Beom Seok to explain what he truly felt to them, because clearly the other two saw him as a friend they treasured. However, that's totally easier said than done. The scene where Beom Seok hid in his closet, surrounded by children's toys was heartbreaking. It's like we could see that he never really got to escape his childhood trauma from his father's abuse and to the school bullying.

Aside from Beom Seok, I loved Si Eun's character a lot. He went from being an emotionless block that cared about his academic performance to a fearless person that loved his friends more than anything else, despite what they have done. Ji Hoon outdid himself with this one, truly. I was actually expecting an average performance from him, since he's an idol that trainedmore on performing rather than acting. The scene where he first attacked Yeong Bin was jaw-dropping. And even more so for the scene when he punched the glass window in the last episode. He truly embodied his character, not just acted as Si Eun, but really became him. It was like I wasn't seeing the cute member from WANNA ONE, but a student that had gone through so much. I'm looking forward to his acting in the second season!
Choi Hyunwook did well too. His character was static, in my opinion, though. There wasn't any development, but he was a catalyst for both of his friends' development. I loved the trio.

I really think this drama was very well made. It was very painful, especially the ending. I think there should've been a better closure, especially for Beom Seok, but I guess that'll have to wait for the next season.

I highly recommend this drama. Aside from the violence and foul language, it's an excellent drama that holds true life lessons.

Exhilarating

I'm still filled with adrenaline after watching this. The first thing that stood out to me were the action scenes, which have extraordinary choreography.

Ultiamtely, I think the best part of this drama is, without a doubt, the main lead. There's an abundance of "stand up against your bullies" stories out there that feature main leads with physical prowess, or leads with some sort of superpower (lol), but very rarely do you get a lead who counters physical attacks with intelligence and attitude. His archetype is just so intriguing, and Jihoon's acting perfectly encapsulates every step of his arc.

The other acting standout is of course Choi Hyunwook as Suho, who brought all the charisma and humor that the show needed. Bumseok was also really interesting as a character study. Maybe the one person who I felt was sort of random and out of place was the female character Young Yi, who throughout the show always felt more like a plot device.

There's so much to unpack here — I'm a bit torn between thinking the 8 episodes is just perfect because it made the pace lightning fast, and wanting just a few more episodes to show more of the trio and dive deeper into Bumseok's downward spiral, which ultimately still felt pretty sudden despite the backstory we got for him.

Overall, still, I think this is a fantastic watch that really did deserve all the high praise it got.

Generational

Lately, I've been on a K-Drama strike, going through multiple genres, while it's been a repetitive grind, I have stumbled across some real heavy hitters. Weak Hero Class 1 was one of them, and an unexpected one at that.

This is a story about the extreme end of bullying, school violence, and cliché gang shenanigans. Of course, in the most classical K-Drama fashion, the schools are teacherless, leaving the canvas wide open to all students to act how they see fit, which is funny in hindsight but very good for creating tension. And this show takes full advantage of that.

I'm very impressed by the detailed choreography of the fights, pretty much all of them, from the pro to the mature, they really sell the weight of every punch, the swiftness of every dodge, and the danger of every weapon used. No character feels invisible yet you see some of them having through mobs of people with no problem.

It was Choi Hyun Wook who brought me here, along with a recommendation, and it turned out it was worth it. The acting was great, the action direction was amazing, and the hype was there. Better even that some battle Shounen Anime shows. All throughout, it never felt "fake" or forced, and that seems the common problem with most K-Dramas.

Great drama

It was intense since the first scene. Seeing how the main actor actually uses strategies and the things around him to settle problems is really exciting and intense. Though he didn't win a lot of fights, I think it's still really cool. Before any fight scene started, my heart would really just be pumping really hard and fast of course hoping that the main actor can win. The bullies that he had to face were very skilled as well especially the few bully that knocked out the main actor's friend causing his friend to actually I think go into coma. He avenged his friend and that was the most intense part. He had to transfer schools and yet met with more bullies. It was a cliffhanger which is the only thing I wasn't really pleased about. Really hope for a season 2.
