List of Trigger Warnings ⚠️ Below

PROS:
◇The whole cast very talented and well known Individuals.
◇Shin Hye-sun fighting scenes & her acting overall ?? ????
◇The message of Turning a blind is also being part of the problem.
◇The realtionship between Shin Hye-sun charcter and Cha Chung-hwa character. They had great chemistry and have worked in past projects together.
?Slight Spoilers?


The Justice in the end. ??

CONS:
◇Fighting fire with fire ?
I understand it's a work of fiction but it still made a little uncomfy.

◇The ML didn't look like a teen but maybe because I know the actors real age.

Overall glad I watched it.

2 hours of painful bullying & justifying revenge violence

Still not sure what to think of this one. But personally i think that the current score of 8.2 is overrated. Guess i think that its mostly because of the popular actors.

The mandatory good looking male role, but doesn't do much to give the female role her spotlight. A typical heart-breaking sad background story to the female lead to give reason to her unlawful behavior. Personally i felt that Park Hyuk Kwon, playing her father was miscast, because it gave a sense of humor to the overall story that seemed forced, stiff and not appropriate to the overall mood. To balance the sadness out it wasn't funny at all, just absurd and ridiculous.

Generally it was pretty long with almost 2 hours for a bullying story with revenge character. But i liked that they took their time to build the story. It was actually hard to watch the physical, emotional and psychological bullying scenes. Pretty realistic and painful to watch. Even if the role of the devil student, played by Lee Jun Young was a bit overexaggerated it fits the character and overall plot. He was definitely giving his all to be evil.

The fight scenes were nice choreographed, but not realistic at all. Typical fast cutted from multi-angle views. Didn't enjoy it much as an action fan. But kudos to the stuntwomen and man, the scenes where they wore the mask were great and really amazing. Long shots in one go. Unfortunately they're not listed at all in the cast list like usual. So my appreciation here, because it was one of the things that made this movie watch-worthy.

What definitely stood out was Park Jung Woo acting, playing the bullied kid. Such a talent that really got across the emotions. I actually hope to see him in more versatile roles and not just playing Guest and Support roles.

Still not sure if i liked the message that this movie tried to send. Yes, it was simple not to look away and endure everything, but actually it's a movie where the showdown is that a teacher beats up his student. And everybody is happy about that and cheers for revenge violence.
