Why Watch This Kdrama?
No Spoiler
High School Return of a Gangster is an ongoing Kdrama, so we don’t know how it will go, but I find the plot really interesting with the wits of Kim Deuk-pal (the gangster) and how he tends to solve the problems that arise around him.
The plot delves deeply and thoughtfully into serious and often overlooked issues such as the significant impacts of bullying on its victims, highlighting the long-term mental and emotional scars it can leave. It also shows the effects of family issues and how they can cause mental and physical harm to children. This K-drama perfectly reflects the problems that teenagers face.
Despite the underlying serious themes, the drama’s creators managed to incorporate comedy elements in a genius manner. These comedic moments were not simply thrown in but were rather sprinkled throughout the narrative, providing a balance that amplified the overall effect of the drama.
Also, the actors performed well and truly embodied their characters. The chemistry is chemistrying. You’ll certainly feel the emotions deeply. This Kdrama takes viewers on a roller coaster of emotions, from anger to laughter to excitement.
