Fighting Lucy Apr 26 2020 5:50 pm Chris was a pleasure to watch in Itaewon Class. Other than Carson Allen, Chris brings a naturalness to his part. They both make me smile when I see them in whatever they're in. Nancy Apr 14 2020 9:23 pm I thoroughly enjoyed this drama. From beginning to end the story was well written and the characters portrayal were excellent. I hope there is season 2. Junara Apr 11 2020 11:49 pm Kdrama should be like this, like Itaewon class. Loveeeee it sooooooooooooooo badly that I wouldn't stop talking abt it 2 my friends and sharing posts abt it on social media. I am pretty sure everyone is hell annoyed by my post of Itaewon, but literally people it is a must toooooo watch kdrama series❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️Loveeeee Itaewon. First ever kdrama 2 make me sooo hyped up? I mean beside frm other kdrama like birth of a beauty, she was pretty, Heirs, etc. Itaewon class is an eye opener that directors and producers shud allow foreigners and other various types of people to tackle discrimination, gender, culture differences, etc. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Suzanne Roach Apr 07 2020 3:33 pm I was so impressed to see a black actor, in this brilliant master piece. Even more importantly he could speak Korean. I am a person of colour, myself and I just love Korean dramas.. I loved all the actors, it's so cool also that certain issues was addressed, that has an effect on everyone in this world that we live in. Ayah Apr 03 2020 3:48 pm He is such a good actor hope to see more of him N Mar 28 2020 10:08 am @American Aborigine Princess there's at leat 3 country in Africa called Guinea: Conakry, Bissau, Equatorial none of them are English speaking countries. It's true that some African countries speak English but not all of them. And depends on where you meet them also... yanpi Mar 19 2020 11:09 pm he was funny and good when he was saying in korean language "but i am korean" and the one instance he said "im startled" Sweet Steffanie Mar 16 2020 5:55 am such a nice cast. Nina Mar 14 2020 9:40 pm Thank you for Chris Leon ! He has such a great part and he insists that he is Korean! I love it. I know how American shows would misinterpret Asian actors and put them in stereotypical roles... as has the case been for KDramas .. always making black characters as thugs! But this Itaewon Class is right on point.. presenting the issues of 2020... we are all moving to be one people.. or at least trying to understand our differences and move to acceptance. Thank you for this fabulous drama... fabulous acting and actors.. I’d love to work on a piece that speaks to deeper race issues in Korea... mayb with a romantic flair... I can only imagine the gossip .. lol Beverley Mar 14 2020 7:02 pm Enjoying the drama! Yuya Mar 09 2020 10:51 am The way he said I m korean ??? Hope to see you again next seires... Gmarie H Mar 04 2020 4:16 pm About time we see an African American( People of Color) not playing the role of a thug at criminal..and he plays his part Very well..hope to see more.. Thank you Korea Doris Stevenson Feb 28 2020 4:35 pm Hi Chris! I’m enjoying watching your acting on Iatawon (excuse spelling if wrong) Class on Netflix. I love this series!! It’s different than the dramas I usually watch - so modern & addresses current social situations of the times we live in now. I hope to see more of you in other dramas or movies. Now I’ll get back to your bio to learn more about you. I love the Korean language. It’s very beautiful, I learn a little thru watching Kdramas. Excited to see 2 new episodes this week. Doris Chaebol Feb 25 2020 3:42 am Wow..I'm so happy to see black skin like me cast in korea drama. Kdrama is my best,i av bn watching kdrama this year make it 7years. I barely knw my country celebrities name but i know half of korea celebrities names.. I love Korean country..Fighting American Aborigine Princess Feb 21 2020 1:29 pm Also kind of unrealistic too because most people from Guinea speak English and French. Most speak 3-4 languages. Usually tribal languages, french and english. Almost every African I have met speaks 3-4 languages and one of the languages is almost always english. . . ? I do enjoy seeing him on the show though. ? Shakira Feb 15 2020 7:42 pm I remember when it was just Sam in dramas. Now we got Hyun Min and Chris. I'm so proud!! Watching Chris on Itaewon class makes me want to rededicate myself to learning Korean!!! Kalisa Feb 04 2020 10:17 am This is amazing ❤️❤️ I watch Korean movies and YouTube videos of how Koreans react to black people and this is the most accepting positive thing ever❤️❤️Fighting ????
