Just watch the trailer thats enough to convince you why it should be a recommendation if you liked Weak Hero Class 1.

Itaewon Class has everything and more , you probably watched it alreaady but its time to rewatch it :)

- School Bullying
- Attempted Murder
- Sismance (brothermance in Weak Hero Class)

- A quiet/weak kid getting bullied in school
- They both form a friendship that helps them to become stronger and with that fight for their revenge
- Also they both use a pen ?

Both Kdramas have a main guy who was bullied in high school but eventually stands his ground and fights off the bullies. Both main lead guys are strong and they were both a little quiet in the beginning.

Weak Hero Class 1 is also about bullying and revenge and so much more, but instead of waiting it out until the main character is an adult to exact revenge like in The Glory, the main character in Weak Hero Class 1 took revenge right away and it felt so much more satisfying (at least to me).

The drama only has 8 episodes, about 40 minutes per episode, and each will definitely leave you at the edge of your seat! Try out the first episode and see!

- both have bullying and school violence
- both are set in high school
- both have main leads who are assumed to be weak
- both have the main leads win at the end.

"Weak hero class 1" is more dark and intense. It involves bromance and out-of-school crime, suspense and mystery.

This drama reminds me of Ultimate Weapon Alice. Both are about high school bullying the main character who used to be weak one.

Both are short Korean series with violence and betrayed friendships.

both are about bromance between high school boys who rely each other, and involve school bullying, street fight and especially Shin Seung Ho, a versatile actor who seems tough and good at fighting.

'Yeon Si-eun’ is a model student who looks fragile on the outside.

Utilize his innate brain and analytical skills

Fighting against violence inside and outside of school

This is an action coming-of-age drama about a ‘weak hero’!

Somehow Warrior Baek Dong So left a similar impression on me as Weak Hero Class 1!
If you like action and heart-wrenching friendships, then these dramas are for you! The fighting choreography is some of the best ones I've seen.

Weak Hero Class 1 is a high-school drama, and it revolves around bullying and childhood trauma, while Warrior Baek Dong So is a historical/sageuk drama, which of course has a lot of political turmoil, assassinations, and sword fighting.

Even though the genre is completely different, both are dramas that highlight loyalty and betrayals, both are not romantic either. Both are great quality shows that might make you fall in love and shed tears for the characters.

I saw many people saying how the lead characters in Love For Love's Sake are similar/remind them of the ones in Weak Hero Class 1, just in a different universe.

Darkness and emotional investment. Both stories have protagonists fighting against the injustice while morality of the methods used are in the gray area. Both series have a strong sense of comraderie/bromance where the guys take care and protect each other.

Both series have similar vibes:
- all boys school,
- friendship,
- school violence,
- fighting scenes.
