em Nov 25 2023 5:51 pm whc1 will forever be in my top 3 kdramas. I adore it so much. The acting, chemistry, cinematography, etc is just all so amazing. Definitely a must watch! <3

IDK Nov 07 2023 10:47 am This Drama Broke Me Lol. (it has been 3 months from the firsr time i watched it) just wanted to make this comment. that’s all.

Lee Oct 26 2023 9:16 am This drama is so intense yet at times can be so satisfying to watch, especially when the bullies get hit! Worth every sec of my time to watch this. And all the casts acted so damn well too. Love it!!

Cant wait for season 2, and I hope they bring back the same actors in S1.

marie Oct 16 2023 2:43 am i rewatched it today ????

Astherielle Sep 13 2023 11:00 pm cured my kdrama slump rewatch value? 5 stars the main lead deserves multiple awards for his acting

Josie Aug 27 2023 10:04 pm One of the best drama I've ever seen. So full of emotion, action and drama. Thumbs up to the director, writer and cast especially the main lead Park Ji Hoon together with Choi Hyun Wook and Hkng Kyung. ???? Young actors but already have so much within them.

Eiko Aug 05 2023 9:45 am Ok, I'm only up to episode 3. So far, I'm liking Suho, Beomseok, and even Seokdae as individual characters. However, my fave is our main Si-eun because so far I relate to him the most. Though I don't fully understand what goes on in his head yet, I get the impression that he's a loner by choice and that though he may not like studying, he still likes it better than having to socialize. I was initially glad to feel represented. Some of us prefer and are happy to be alone and there is nothing wrong with that so I hate it when shows make it seem like a bad trait or that a loner is lonely and s/he will only be happy when s/he "opens up" and makes friends, which isn't true at all. So I'm becoming super annoyed with these characters forcing Si-eun to hang-out, disregarding his plan, eating his precious time forcing him to do what THEY want, and oh my god, the most annoying is that Young-yi character. They try to make it as if she's a cute oddball tomboy, but she's actually a needy annoying red flag—at least so far in this episode. She steals cosmetics, tries to make a Si-eun an accomplice by forcing him to pretend to be her boyfriend so she can get away, forces him to walk her home because she didn't have an umbrella and forces him to treat her to dinner along the way. She even molests him by forcefully hugging his arm pretending to be her girlfriend. if the gender was reversed, the ick would be more apparent. What disappoints me is Si-eun goes along with all these people trying to insert themselves in his life so I guess the show is going along the "all loners must be lonely and want friends" character arc. And can we stop with trying to pass creepy impudent female characters as cute or "savage"? It's toxic and cringe.

Sooho's girl Jul 30 2023 7:29 am I just finished this drama and now I'm so broken hearted. I'm so sad for Sooho and Sieun. I'm very disapointed of Beomseok and wanna hate him, but I pity him for some reasons.

The storyline was great. The young actors portrait the characters really well. The fighting scenes are well executed. My favourite here is Choi Hyunwook. I came here for Hongkyung, but fell for Hyunwook instead. Oh, and I didn't expect that Park Jihoon was really good too. Bravo all the actors. Hope everyone great success.

atty Jul 19 2023 1:41 pm this drama is honestly one of the best ive seen. the fighting scenes & the hospital scenes, are insanely well planned out and executed amazingly. Park Ji-hoon is such an amazing actor, and i was blown away with how amazing his acting was. Choi Hyunwook, his character, sooho, played amazingly. i was on the edge of my seat everytime he came into the scene. and bumseok's actor?? Hong Kyung, ABSOLUTELY blown away. the facial expressions, along with the acting, absolutely amazing.

i cant wait for season two, stay waiting fellow fans!!

10/10 - amazing storyline/plot, beyond astounding acting, and amazing execution from all cast. <3

Chelsea Jul 06 2023 3:17 am This was recommended by my niece and I was hesitant to watch it at first coz she said it involves bullying and I thought “it’s just a typical school drama”. But wow, the story, fight scenes and acting are great! The 3 main actors executed their characters well. You can feel their emotions. This series shows how a friendship can be ruined by a miscommunication. I feel bad for the 3 male leads’ characters. They have their own issues in life and yet they were tangled in a harsh reality of violence. Looking forward to its second season.

itsmekayc Jun 24 2023 3:43 am honestly, i watch this without much expectation. I just want a break from romcom drama. and, surprisingly, this drama is a hidden gem. i cannot find the exact words to summarize what i really feel, but i like the storyline. i like it A LOT. please have season 2, writer is so bad to keep us hanging haha We want more please. after watching this, i keep on searching other drama with same plot but i cannot find satisfaction. haha please satisfy my "cravings" and go for another season. LOL

Faeble May 23 2023 8:41 pm As a big fan of the Manhwa, I was very disappointed to see all my favorite characters gone.

But it's still really good. I was able to get my mom hooked on it and she typically didn't like the shows I recommend since we have very different tastes.

It's been fun seeing the correlations between the events and characters in the drama and in the source material.

If you're like me and were initially upset by the character changes I highly recommend giving it a chance anyway. The heart of it is still there they've just taken it and made it their own.

9/10, but only because I miss my boys

Dalagang_Pinipilahan May 21 2023 7:01 am This drama is a masterpiece! The actors were on point in putting out emotions needed. Very well acted. Jihoon elevated his acting skills. But, Choi Hyunwook? Dâmn! He's phenomenal in this drama, reminded me so much of Park Seo Joon's character in Fight For My Way. He's incredibly talented. He's more than ready to take a lead role! 10/10 A+

Mari Apr 04 2023 2:51 pm TBH when this drama first come out, I thought " Oh, just another popular high school drama with bullies and stuff " so I was like I'm not gonna watch it. Until a couple of weeks ago I decided to give it a chance and watch it , and Omg I regret that I even thought that it's just a popular and overrated Kdrama . Like I actually finished the whole 8 episodes in just one sitting, and even my sister who had never watched nor enjoyed any Kdrama before loved it. I laughed, cried and sobbed all in one frr. Every character was on point , Park Ji-Hoon carried and served the whole show, with Choi Hyun-Wook they were superior together. I would love to see them together again in another Kdrama. I really hope there will be a season 2, as they need to let us know what will happen next. I Highly recommend this Kdrama. (btw it's my first time rating a drama)

Jestine29 Feb 12 2023 1:24 am All I can say is.that this kdrama is just too good and real. Whatever these kids are going thru with the bullying and oppression, it's real and it's painful. How can these kids turn into hurting their friends so sad. This drama is highly.recommended it's an 11/10 for me

Gia Jan 16 2023 3:58 am Will it have session 2..

It's so recommended

KST Jan 14 2023 9:29 am I just finished watching this mini series. Wow it was really amazing. The story was nice and enjoy watching this. I really appreciate the acting of Choi hyun wook and Park ji hoon.This series shows how the south korean children are suffering from school bullying. I hope that season two will come soon and will be more entertaining...

hello Jan 13 2023 7:11 am the actors were really good but the plot is horrible. it felt like it was written for the sake of being writing and it developed just to stuff in violent scenes? it was quite sad as i expected better after watching DP

Angie Jan 02 2023 5:09 am Weak hero is the best,, deserve an award..park jihoon is the best actor. I want season 2 please.

Emma Dec 31 2022 1:12 pm Kinda tempted just to watch it for Shin Seung-Ho's scenes lol.

kurumi Dec 30 2022 10:12 am i watched this with my dad and he loved it so much & said it kinda reminds him of D.P. but with a teenage setting. from what i remember beomseok & seokdae also starred in D.P.

bunkey Dec 30 2022 6:45 am wow the best teenager drama for me!! Idk this drama is from webtoon and I didn't read the webtoon version so idk what season 2 will be.. I just want to say I do love Si Eun and Soo Ho friendship!! its just touch my heart!! Bum Seok deserved the live like hell for the rest his life even I know about his 'cruel father' but I can't accept what he did to Soo Ho.. Hope they will be happy for season 2!!

John Dec 27 2022 10:39 am I need a season 2!!! The series and the actors is so good.

Aimee Dec 25 2022 10:58 pm We really need season2. The actors should have an awards because they are so good in acting . I'm sorry if my English is wrong grammar. But this movie is so worth it to watch it's so cool the actors too. We really want season 2 and the same actors. So amazing series worth it nomu jjang!? I hope the management hear our saying. We Really Wants Season 2. The Actors Is So Cool

Ace Dec 21 2022 9:50 pm I really need season 2!!!!

Purple Dec 21 2022 2:27 pm I dont like it!! I hate this story! I like the webtoon more. What the huck the story!!!! If you read the story in webtoon, you will be fall in love more. The friendship story is better than in this drama. But I admit their acting is good.

>>**edit : Oke, my bad, So this is Sieun's past, I understand now. The story doesn't flash back like in the webtoon. That's why I was a bit confused when I watched it. Then it's understandable if I'm a bit shocked to see the story.

purple Dec 21 2022 11:15 am I dont like it!! I hate this story! I like the webtoon more. What the huck the story!!!! If you read the story in webtoon, you will be fall in love more. The friendship story is better than in this drama. But I admit their acting is good.

jihoon Dec 17 2022 4:43 am The best series I've watched. The acting and the script are great. I cried all the time while watching. The emotions are very well handled. Season 2 should definitely come. We want season 2.love u jihoon❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

obri torres Dec 12 2022 2:51 am The fight scenes were well choreographed, realistic, and brutal. Hope to see them again in Season 2. ???

CUGIEYOSH Dec 12 2022 1:44 am It's definitely a Must Watch series. It’s hard-hitting themes and exceptionally crafted story. Impressive acting skills with well executed direction is what makes the film flow with such ease and keeps the audience engaged and emotionally invested from start to finish. Weak hero class 1 is a visually and emotionally stunning experience like no other series and undeniably meets all the criteria in order to be called a masterpiece

Khanqueror Dec 11 2022 2:53 am @Reety it’s always fujoshis like you that ruin shit smfh. Fujoshis need psychiatric help!!!

Reety Dec 10 2022 5:45 pm I'm still crying.....i love this drama so much.... I'm waiting for season 2 T_T ... please I want happy ending, Si Eun and Soo ho have to be together T_T please.. I love their friendship so much

Liz Dec 09 2022 2:01 pm This was so good. Watched it all through the night. Sobbed a ton. I hope they will have a season 2 with An Soo ho alive. The two lonely boys finally found each other and now this?

Also An Soo Ho is the first one who made Si Eun laugh and also the first to make him cry.

Anonymous Dec 09 2022 11:06 am This drama is worth a recommendation. It has a similar bg of school bully culture but with a different clap back from the victim(s) which is quite satisfying. Also, it's like watching the new gen of k-actors - young park seo jun, jeong yong hwa, and woo bin. Please, go watch this series.

Andrian Vernandes Dec 07 2022 9:24 pm Jihoon is awesome here. I've watch many clips of this drama in youtube, and seems like it's worth to watch. Later, i'm going to watch the entire episode of this drama.

Gloss Dec 06 2022 8:57 pm I don't easily shed tears but this drama made me a mess. All the actors specially park ji hoon and choi hyun wook literally nailed their characters. This drama really left a mark on my memory. Deserve another season

Chan Es Dec 06 2022 6:56 pm Pleaseeee we deserve a season 2 of this. I really cried hard and so love the Characters of them. Specially Park Ji-Hoon.. pleaseee season 2!!!!

Lyndon Dec 06 2022 3:45 pm Not really sure but the synopsis is misleading. I'm curious if this really happens in schools in South Korea.

Miki Dec 05 2022 3:26 pm I would love to see more of Park Jihoon's acting,, its jist reeling you in for more!

B Dec 05 2022 1:55 pm Please season 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please season 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please season 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please season 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bella Dec 04 2022 11:39 pm It's been long time since I shed tears... The scene where Yeun si hoon hide his cast hand when an soo ho had huge emotional roller coaster.. tears rolled down as both are hiding for sake of one another. Another scene at the end of episode where he beat two students in his class with fire extinguisher.. when we walk outside like he is soulless and teacher keep ask to turn around or something.. he brust in such frustration, sad and fed up that he broke the window. I was crying and could breath well due sudden inflow of emotion.. how he feels in that moments..he didn't want to choos violent but had too.. Hope for season 2... Hope an soo ho returns..

Pat Dec 04 2022 9:11 pm Just saw this in one sitting… big mistake. The anxiety this gave me was insane. Ep 7-8 just had me in a pool of tears and snot, I was literally sobbing, weeping and straight up hyperventilating, I did not signed up for this shit. Now if y’all excuse me, I’m gonna go to sleep with my eyes all swollen, I look like I took a beating in the ring too… wait, too soon (T_T)

Ara Dec 04 2022 9:14 am It's been a long time since I come to asianwiki and leave a comment on some dramas. This short drama can make me feel angry, frustrated, and annoyed with Bum Seok's actions toward his friendship with Si Eon and So Hoo. Park Ji Hoon really great at acting I must say and I cannot wait for season 2. Hope for So Hoo to be back and healthy also for Bum Seok to understand his wrongdoings.

Rosalie Dec 04 2022 7:20 am Loved the acting. Every episode exciting and entertaining! And then we have the ending. Very Disturbing. Hated It!

Haris Dec 03 2022 6:06 pm His visual is no joke,, the mixture of park seo joon and jang ki yong... Soon his acting skills will improve as he really did great job in his previous projects

Armhel Dec 03 2022 2:24 pm Though this is just a movie but this is how some people with power or have money do some shits.

Well, ya know, revenge is not a good thing its a never ending cycle same goes with the bully but if i was in his position, ill do it too hahahah ✌️But ya know, when you found a good friend that will stand in your side no matter what. Treasure it pal. Because they're rare to find. And whoever out there already had one, ur very lucky.

Anyways, I dnt know the author name is but all i wanted to say is.

Author, you made a masterpiece even a word masterpiece, excellence, magnificent, or whatever word is that to describe how great your story can't be enough. I've been watching movies, dramas - anything that involves acting and so on a lot whatever genre is. Cause my father loves movies and i just happen to adapt it from him. I also do read a lot fantasy, action, travel, romance, sciences just name it. And again author, you nailed it! All the hardwork, sleepless night and so on is worth it. Congratulations for writing a one of the best story. I hope ill get to see or read your stories in the future more.

To the director of the movie, the cast esp our main characters, the one who sponsor the movie too and lastly whoever you are guys who help made this movie too. Guys, you nailed it ?.

And the one who character the Soo-Ho, you really have similarities of PSJ. Im not comparing ur acting skills guys cause both of u are excellent ! ? Its just ur face guys, are brothers? ?✌️

K byeee !

Loner Dec 02 2022 8:28 pm I love the story, love the acting, they so good together.... But I hate the ending, I know it will be next season, but the ending like this make me feel bad and not satisfied at all...

Tiaragirl Dec 02 2022 5:25 pm I know this is a kdrama, but there are so many school-based ones with violence and nastiness. In particular, the humiliation of students and never teachers or school principals or anyone around and/or dealing with the situations. The fact that the majority of high school-based dramas are so violent makes me wonder about the secondary schools in Korea.

Jerrimy corpuz Dec 02 2022 2:51 pm 100/10 pleasee hoping got season 2 cant wait to watch it

Rapunjel Dec 02 2022 1:39 pm I loved this series! Rating 10/10... Need season 2 ???

Ana Dec 02 2022 1:29 am 10/10. Wow. I missed when shows were this good. I literally could not stop watching. Really hoping for a season 2.

Niel renz Dec 01 2022 12:32 pm Season 2 pless it so cool korean drama it so good story

Aliainnesghazlan Dec 01 2022 9:45 am i love Park Jihoon so much badass ever

yongjun Dec 01 2022 9:42 am to the one saying this is D.P school version, it is right? I just listened to the opening song section and it reminds me so much of D.P. Oh I love the intensity of this drama, it just carries the webtoon vibe so well. I don't know that Park Jihoon the cutest can do this amazingly scary si eun. Love It. will there be sequel? you guys also need to read the webtoon, it's amazing!

Chowpan Dec 01 2022 8:12 am This is like a prequel to the webtoon, which is a good thing because the ending left me hanging kekeke...

hoihoi Nov 29 2022 11:21 am wow so many D.P casts (the actors of oh beomseok, yeongyi, seokdae, gilsoo, shieun's dad, taehoon, jungchan), no wonder people said this is "D.P. school ver."

noi Nov 29 2022 10:58 am dammmmnnnn park jihoon acting is top notch!!

pogiko Nov 29 2022 2:19 am park ji hoon the sadness of his life in the movie hahaha if it was me I wouldn't do that to you eme lang kiss kita sampu hahah season 2 please

pogiko Nov 29 2022 2:14 am we need season 2 i love it

PARK JI HOON ADMIRER Nov 28 2022 2:28 pm If anybody knows the song that played in episode 7 at 15:44 while sooho was walking away from the apartment and it was played till the elevator scene, please let me know in the comment section about the soundtrack nameeee since it wasn't included in the album & here's no reply option so please just tell us the name of the rest of the soundtracks of the album Thank you.

Matt Varilla Nov 28 2022 10:10 am Need season 2 ASAP this show has a good potential and its already so good! Cast is very talented and the writers potray the story really well!

park ji hood Nov 28 2022 9:13 am really need season 2 asap!!!!!!!

Johany Nov 28 2022 1:32 am Omg i loved this drama. I was so happy when the main actor lead smile. He is so cute.I really love it. I will be happy is they come out with the second season.

Eme alh Nov 27 2022 5:40 pm The cast were top tier, young actors but have huge talents and passion. Especially hyun wook, he really caught my attention. At such a young age it is very rare to be this talented!!! He is like a younger version of park seo jun, he also resembles him.

Huge respect to all the cast for making this drama.

spoiler*

They really need to make a new season, it is very upsetting to have an open ending and not knowing whether soo ho dies or no. Such a cliffhanger. They really made us suffer and cry , he is the most lovable character in the drama….

Jesaaa Mhay Nov 27 2022 9:40 am It was so good, one of the best movies I've watched the actor shi Eun was amazing actor, I hope their was season 2

julie ann opague Nov 26 2022 6:25 pm a very nice film, and a great actors,...fhis film give a lot of lesson in life, hoping for season 2

Mob Nov 26 2022 2:51 pm The one who charmed me most is hyun wook oppa acting fr. He got me so emotional. He didn't deserve that kind of ending. Waiting for season 2 anxiously cuz I can't wait for his comeback. By the way, why would si yeon resist beating bum, that guy is the real scumbag. I hate him like shit. Okay, I kinda understand him but he went far. He didn't even value their friendship. I'm so pained soo ho got all that beating tbh I wouldn't even have been so pained if it was were shi eun. And that idiot bum blaming the girl is just an excuse, he could have just left their group when he's feeling uncomfortable. I know the feeling of being left out isn't great but he should have been more mature and imagine he was intimidated by a girl. Mtcheew. Rubbish. That's just how she behaves, it's a charm. Foolish selfish beom suk.

pixie Nov 26 2022 1:30 am (i didnt read the webtoon) The story was good!!! I cried at last episode :( Choi hyun wook is so gooodd!! i watched him from racket boys, hopefully he get more kdrama after this. I dont know why, his face can be a good guy or bad guy. First time i watch ji-hoon's acting, wow i shooookkkk I hope there is season twoooooo. should i read the comic? sdjsnd i still read study group tho, is it similar plot? hmmmmm

Rei Habs Nov 25 2022 5:32 pm I was surprised at first to see how good Park Ji Hoon at acting, actually it is my first time though, and definitely won't be my last. Park Ji Hoon, Choi Hyun Wook and Hong Kyun were perfectly portrayed their own characters. I was impressed about the whole story and the rest of the characters. There's a lot of web drama or series about school bullying, we all know that it is somehow happened in real life. I hope that the society should address this issue and act promptly to stand up against bullying.

Pris Nov 25 2022 11:36 am @amy here r my reccs: 1. Taxi driver: it’s about grp of ppl helping those who r bullied by confronting the bullies which is the theme u r interested in but it is not a school drama.

2. Blue birthday: school drama, thriller. It’s about a girl who goes back in time to find out why her best friend commuted suicide. So the deeper she digs the more she finds out about the truth. However this is not rlly related to bullying.

3. One and only: thriller. It’s about how this grp of mentally ill ppl who murdered this person and how they tried to cover it up. Touches on the background of the characters n how they ended up in this mental home or whatever.

4. Uncanny counter: about this group of ppl who specialise in punishing evil spirits by fighting them, it is dark but there’s also a fantasy aspect, the main character also has his own story which kinda relates to ur theme.

5. Mystic pop up bar : definitely on the comedic side. It’s about this immortal lady who got punished and as a result sent to the human world to help humans solve their problems. She sets up a bar called mystic pop up bar n tgt with her 2 assistants she helps those who are troubled fo solve their problems. So in some of the cases, the ppl who ask for help r being bullied so they go n help punish these bullies. Again, not a school drama.

Kinda gave a short summary of each of the shows but I think u shld also check out the synopsis n the trailers to get a better sense of what the show is like n what u r more attracted fo.

amy Nov 25 2022 7:45 am does anyone know any dramas similar to this one?? "standing up to bullies" theme is preferable but if it's a darker drama in a school setting with less/no focus on bullying, that'd be cool too. and i already watched extracurricular

ahn Nov 25 2022 3:31 am i think for this season its a prequel of weak hero main story. i think its a good move to build Si-eun persona here cause its maybe to short if the story start from eunjang high. i think its very good adaptation. for ji-hoon, its my first time seeing him act as a psychotic role. lee yeon is quite cute here compared with in juvenile justice. i feel little bit disappointed choi hyun-wook play as suho here cause we wont be seeing him in the next season.

PH love Park JiHoon Nov 24 2022 2:39 pm I think this will have a S2! Title is Weak Hero Class 1 but webtoon's title is just Weak Hero. Maybe sequel will be Weak Hero Class 2 since it's a new class at the end. Praying for S2!!!

Eva Jacobson Nov 24 2022 5:53 am This type of genera I avoid because it's too much to handle. However, Weak Hero is a superb roller coaster ride of hormonal emotions, trauma, and friendship it is whole some.......Thank you for this drama.

yoyo Nov 24 2022 4:52 am someone please what's the name of the song when soo ho was dying in the ring??

ColdeFiction Nov 23 2022 7:37 pm @nj did you read read the webtoon? It's the same with minor changes. First this is the back story for Gray Yeon which run on chapter 26 - 37 in the manhwa. Second, I am very glad they changed Stephen Ahn's persona because in manhwa he is such a wimpy ass kid. At least in drama he can defend himself. Lastly they change pace to fit the mood and narrative.

정 윤설 Nov 23 2022 7:19 pm Yall i right this in my personal notes but it's not enough to leave it private So I'll copy it here

- [x] Weak hero class 1 "hear me out...this one is madly good ! TF?? It has everything literally.. feelings drama acting actors photography directing producing pleasant not even a one mistake it's perfect everything just makes sense every character is understandable every seen is so real it is the one and only masterpiece ☠️?️???️ ?⭕️

Okay so thank you is way far than enough it's just I can't make myself clear to show how much I'm unbelievably in it so one thing you guys made a holy show

kdramalover Nov 23 2022 6:35 pm I've read the webtoon of this and it is amazing. If you also have read this then don't expect it to be the same as the drama. I was a bit disappointed at first that it wasn't like the webtoon but the story line and everything made me forget about that. I thought this drama was really good and the story line and action were just perfect. I definitely recommend watching this whether you have read the webtoon or not. Both are good and definitely recommend! The three main leads did a great job acting which enhanced the show a lot. Once again, definitely recommend watching. This show was really good!

nj Nov 23 2022 5:48 pm I wanted to watch it because Weak Hero is my favorite webteen/manga/manhwa of all time :)

Well, first two episodes I realized it wasn't the same (at all) so whatever, let's take it as what it is and not what it could have been, actually i liked the path those 2 episodes were taking

And then i hated it. So much.

it's that kind of show you watch and every 5 minutes you're like "that character was super smart why would he do THAT" repeatedly and you can tell the characters are doing stuff that don't fit their personality but the plot

good acting tho, still hate it

carat Nov 23 2022 1:22 pm usually I watch ep a day but I couldn't so I finish it in one time it is so freakin good and I never felt bored watching it

Toni Nov 23 2022 6:30 am Anyone know what song in episode 8 when si eun punch the windows glass and yells sibal?

Oscar Nov 23 2022 4:52 am ❤️❤️❤️

mindo Nov 23 2022 4:24 am worth to watch. fckin good drama. fckin good fighting scene and the emotion potrayed was hella good. good job yall

Lein Nov 23 2022 3:31 am This is just so good.. omygod..?? i love ji hoon's acting.. im waiting for season 2

cinthia Nov 22 2022 10:47 pm When will season 2 release anyone????

Star Nov 22 2022 7:41 pm Great drama.. kinda like king of pigs.. can’t wait for season2

riscahuang97@gmail.com Nov 22 2022 1:56 pm I really like this drama. The conflicts that everyone builds are really great and successful, then I can also feel the delivery of the wounds in each character. This is truly a legend, I can't say any more. The bottom line is this story is good. But can I hope that Soo Ho will be present in season 2.. Soo Ho and SHI Eun's characters are very compatible, they look good together.

Shrijana Shrestha Nov 22 2022 10:10 am This drama is the bestest Korean drama.. park ji Hoon gave me goosebumps in every single episode by his acting....

REchntz Nov 22 2022 8:18 am fkcin rollercoaster emotion, worth to watch.

Bey Nov 22 2022 5:34 am But first, Park Jihoon is an actor before he became a kpop artist y'all ????

nugget Nov 21 2022 10:56 pm wow i havent watched a good kdrama in a long long time, this drama was amazing i binged it in one day. im so impressed by park jihoon's acting, i really didnt expect anything but he was great, puts cha eunwoo and rowoon and most other kpop idols turned actors to shame lmfao 10/10

Pheww Nov 21 2022 10:13 pm @ep 5 , i must say bum seok at this point is mistreated by an so hoo. He has severe trauma and an sok ho should have left him beat those guys to let out some steam. Havent watched 6 so no idea what next will happen. Also he hates the arm placing o shoykdrrs as in korea its a thing bullies do to their victims so he gets triggered by it. An soo ho needs to get out of his hapoy go luck fake mental paradise. Si eun is lot more parctical. He let out his team by mincing the bully but soo hoo blocked bum seok. He needed emotional support and an soo hoo is ready to beat him up at karaoke club what an idiot.

Nan Nov 21 2022 5:22 pm This so good I not only watched it completely on Saturday but I started the webcomic and today, Monday, I am finishing chapter 130. Amazing story.

Raaan Nov 21 2022 5:14 pm All was great and all until that girl with ugly wig ruin everything. Lol.

I know beomseok crossing the line but i can still symphatize. He is actually very kind. He was the one beg soo ho to help sieun. He was also the one running to save sooho from gilsoo. He bring them together but he might feel left out once that wig girl take his spot. Even that girl become closer to sooho and sieun than him. Guess he feel betrayed? Eventho after that what he had done is unforgivable, he is the pitiest one from all. At least others have each other. He will be forever lonely, and with guilt even.

Vinny Nov 21 2022 4:51 pm At first I really didn't like how they changed the story on what I've read from the manhwa and then I realized that this was Gray Yeon's past because the real story starts at Eunjang Grade1 Class6, hoping that Weak Hero Class 6 will be released sooner or later this year and I hope they dont change the casts T_T vruhhh I really love how the main character acted. Bad ass

I Love It So Much Really Really Ffing Amazing!!!!!!

Soma Nov 21 2022 1:45 pm I don't know what to say,I just want to say amazingggggggggg

IDGAF Nov 21 2022 7:33 am Sobrang nice!!

Atheer Nov 21 2022 4:33 am 100/100 good job park jihoon it’s really amazing

Atheer Nov 21 2022 4:32 am Cm ???

reina Nov 21 2022 2:27 am surprisingly this drama is good to watch, nice acting from all the casts, good storyline tho.. enjoy the drama so much and wish there any season 2

Indy Nov 21 2022 2:00 am For the story, action and character, i prefer the webtoon, its away much better than the drama. But drama its self still enjoyable. I wish there will be season 2. 7/10

Tin Nov 21 2022 12:30 am 10/10

Osa Nov 20 2022 9:27 pm This drama 5 stars need season 2.respect for all kru

PANDORA Nov 20 2022 5:16 pm 10/10 across the board. The acting was god-tier, the soundtrack was beautiful, the directing was phenomenal, the story was heartbreaking and emotional. It was a tough one to sit through. Give them all the awards.

wow Nov 20 2022 2:53 pm i wanted him to hit bum suk sooooo bad at the end if you really think into it the reason why he did this because soo hoo didn't follow him back he ruined soo hoo's life because of a follow

ColdeFiction Nov 20 2022 1:17 pm Read the Webtoon guys. This 8 episode drama is basically just the back story(which started on chapter 26 on manhwa) for Si eun at byeoksan middle school. The season 2 will start at Eunjang high which is the main story. He will face new allies and enemies there.

Ila Nov 20 2022 12:51 pm Daebak!!! Can't wait for season 2

Maharani Nov 20 2022 11:06 am Park Jihoon really nailed this. He deserves Best Actor award!

shanks Nov 20 2022 10:27 am this is so good, park ji hoon acting really hit the spot

Akame Nov 20 2022 10:15 am It's really breaks my heart but gave me a little satisfaction at the same time

Ji Nov 20 2022 8:13 am Drama is reallu good. Need season 2

Hero Nov 20 2022 7:28 am Can't wait for season 2!!

soo ho Nov 20 2022 7:27 am Bum seok is trash

B Nov 20 2022 6:33 am Forgot to ads, did people notice the vilest bully from d.p. and nasty crown prince in alchemy something show is again a bully cousin here. Gosh i dont think so i can ever like him in any show even if he comes out made of gold.

MARVIN VENIEGAS Nov 20 2022 6:19 am This drama is so intense but have a good plot. Hope for season 2

B Nov 20 2022 5:59 am Damn his nose the poster, did the bullies destroy his fully as a revenge. Another school bullying with such severe violence drama, i dont mind the dramas but are these things real? Man south korean kids are living in hell if its true, they should seek asylum in western coubtries.

Geegee Nov 20 2022 5:18 am Season 2 please???

Sun1Piece Nov 20 2022 3:06 am Now the Eunjang saga begins in S2....Great Prequel

favv Nov 20 2022 12:58 am now…i want a violent boyfriend this show gave me the same euphoric feeling as extracurricular. It’s so good! i know shi-eun seems to be cryptic and very dark but i honestly love him as he is. of course a season 2 is needed because shi-eun oppa has more people to deal with! don’t think twice about watching the show…it’s 100% worth your time

Please season 2 should come fast, this cliffhanger is really sending me and I hope ahn sooho comes back in the 2nd season. Going to read the manhwa now cause I can't stand the wait

puffy Nov 19 2022 8:13 am Whoachoi hyunwook slayed it! i fall in love over his character here, it suits him so much! the bad boy who has some sense of humor, everything he does seems attractive for me. he adds details when he delivers his lines, i can’t wait for his other upcoming projects in the future <3

Rethabile Nov 19 2022 7:11 am Each episode of this drama is without a doubt perfect, I cannot stop crying. The main character plays his role perfectly with no flaw, the drama is totally awesome honestly

Ren Nov 19 2022 6:59 am Better than the webtoon because of 1 reason... No sh*tty English translated character name

Unknown Nov 19 2022 5:05 am when's season 2 AAAAAA I'm so excited for it :') I just finished season 1 but I need the 2 rn.

Naq Nov 19 2022 4:46 am Also Si Eun slayed ;D

Naq Nov 19 2022 4:45 am It was So Good T^T gosh i love it !! I hope there will be a second season !! I’ll miss Soo Ho since he won’t be in the second season if it ever going to be release

Shi-Eun yeochin Nov 19 2022 3:32 am The last episode really breaks my heart, i can feels his pain omg, from the last clips it’s looks like there will be a season 2

Bladefan Nov 19 2022 2:29 am 10/10

liv Nov 19 2022 2:26 am oh i'm not disappointed one bit, it was gooooodd!!! 5/5 i won't spoil it but it was truly a work of passion, jihoon knows what he's doing w acting and he's shining

wao Nov 18 2022 6:56 pm It was perfect. Glad we got the Stephen/su ho’s arc first. I was so hyped for the drama and I didn’t get disappointed one bit. Hopefully it’s the same way for the second season?

whc1 Nov 18 2022 6:35 pm Weak Hero Class 1 is all about the backstory of Gray/Sieun. Eunjang squad is not here because this is all before Gray/Sieun attended Eunjang. This is about Stephen/Suho arc. Please don't mistake Stephen/Suho as Ben/Hyumin. Everyone might think it is not the same as webtoon, but the core plot of what happened between Gray, Stephen, and Bryce is the same as the one in the webtoon. Season two will be the start of Gray's life in Eunjang and that's where we will see the Eunjang squad.

(Many might be familiar to the English name in the webtoon, so here are their korean names)

Korean name - English name Gray Yeon - Yeon Sieun Stephen Ahn - Ahn Sooho/Suho Bryce Oh - Oh Beomseok Ben Park - Park Hyumin

Emir Adha Nov 18 2022 1:42 pm Season 1 for flashback about gray friend.. Hope season 2 give more like manhwa.

Bryx Nov 18 2022 11:42 am This is just the flashback story of Gray, if ever there was a season 2 that will be the time when gray meets ben

Vie Nov 18 2022 11:20 am Why emmh

What happen..

No impact ..

Ommg ..

Emir Adha Nov 18 2022 8:55 am This main actor so weak .. Nothing like manga

Kesekiya Nov 18 2022 7:32 am I just noticed it was Stephen Ahn arc during episode 6. I thought Stephen Ahm was supposed to be Ben, that explains the characters I didn't recognize since I haven't read the middle school arc yet

Kesekiya Nov 18 2022 6:47 am The live action is nothing like the webtoon. I was wondering the whole time who the other character was. They made gray and ben so pathetic during fights.

Dinesun Nov 18 2022 5:24 am I really hope season 2 will be better because season one was almost nothing like the webtoon.

Gyimah Nov 14 2022 8:05 pm I really love this webtoon Please don't spoil it for us

honey59 Nov 13 2022 8:45 pm Park Jihoon as Gray in the trailer slayed! Excited for this!

marr Sep 22 2022 7:57 pm I'm super excited but scared at the same time. I hope they don't butcher and ruin itttt. i love the webcomic too much.
