Easily one of the worst dramas that I've watched.

❥ This is solely my opinion and it is not necessary that you should agree with this.
--------------------------------------------------------
I had very low expectations for Hierarchy after watching the trailer and that's why it did not let me down. I did not enjoy watching this show one bit. Not even a single minute. This show was a whole trashcan and I'm being generous.. I mean, why did they even release this? This script should've been kept in the drafts. I think this would've been slightly better if it weren't for the cast.. or am I wrong? The show was very messy and all over the place which was why I couldn't enjoy it. So many illogical things are taking place here.. This also had an iffy vibe (mainly school scenes) making the drama less watchable. Netflix original shows are getting worse nowadays (like Chicken Nugget) and nothing could save this horrible drama.

☆ STORY:
Was there even any story here? Yeah, I don't think so. The "plot" was garbage, and it was definitely full of flaws. So many dumb things happening and the characters were written very poorly. It looked like they recycled a western teen romance show into a Korean drama and let me say it happened to be an utter failure. I was watching this in English dub because I did not feel any k-drama vibe here. The ending was done badly too.

☆ ACTING:
The only person who could act here was Ji Hye-won (Yoon He-ra). Roh Jeong-eui (Jeong Jae-yi) remained unexpressive throught the show. She failed to portray the character she was given to play and let me say her acting was insufferable. Kim Jae-won (Kim Ri-an) wasn't any better. They both are pretty good actors, but what happened here? Exactly. Lee Chae-min(Kang Ha) was pretty mid, I guess. I did not feel any chemistry between the leads. Jae I did have a teeny bit of chemistry with Ri An tho. Their scenes were more fun to watch. Roh Jeong-eui and Lee Chae-min are acting in a show together once again and I hope that's a good one.

☆ OST/BACKGROUND MUSIC:
Background OST's were okay. I did not like the intro song, but the OSTs were actually quite good. liked Junhyeon's (TIOT) OST the most. Its called Ruin Life. I liked almost all of the songs except for 1 or 2 ones.

What I liked:
✔ Production: The production was pretty good. It felt expensive and cool. Their outfits were not bad and yeah. That kept the drama alive in some way
✔ Cinematography: They did a great job on the cinematography. I liked how they managed the lighting and the color grading, it looked pretty nice.

What I did not like:
✘ Characters: As I said before, they were written very poorly (or idk if it's the acting) which I did not like. The couple lacked chemistry and all of them got on my nerves (especially Jae-yi) everytime except for Kang Ha. Also the teacher and the student? That was the most creepiest thing ever.
✘ Direction: The direction just felt flat and I think it's one of the reasons why it felt like a western series like how their expressions go. It's not the worst thing here, but I wouldn't say it's good either.


And yeah. That's pretty much it. I would not recommend this drama to anybody here. If you like teen dark romance shows with a synopsis like this then I guess you would enjoy it, or most likely not. It just feels like a failed remake of Elite. That's all. And would I re-watch this? Never. With all of this, Im giving this drama a 3.5/10.

Tysm for reading and have a great day <3

A beautifully crafted drama capturing the reality of the Gwangju Uprising.

Youth Of May is a melodrama set in May 1980 during the Gwangju Uprising. Its about Myung Hee and Hee Tae navigating through the trials of this hectic period of time.

First of all, the acting is amazing. Literally a 11/10. Go Min Si and Lee Do Hyun played Myung Hee and Hee Tae in an amazing way. I like how they literally brought the characters into life and brought a memorable performance. They had great chemistry and their acting just felt so realistic.
Everybody portrayed their characters well.The writing and the whole story was good and overall I loved watching the show entirely. The OSTs were giving off the sad vibe which I enjoyed listening to and also I also came to know about how harsh 1980 May was in Gwangju and how much the people were actually suffering for no reason.

I definitely recommend this drama to anybody who loves watching realistic dramas with no fiction. If you enjoy politics too, then this drama is for you. It's totally worth the watch and is one of the best dramas that I've seen.
