I went into this show with admittedly low expectations. It didn't air on any of the big Korean channels, and wasn't made for any streaming service in particular. There were no big name actors in it, although I did recognize Park Ji Hoon from the fantastic At A Distance Summer is Green, where he played a summery playboy hiding a dark secret. This character could not have been more opposite, and boy was I blown away by his performance. I hope he is given bigger roles after this show, he certainly deserves the chance as his acting was great across the board.

Si Yeun is a pretty, smallish young boy, so seeing him being a brilliant strategist combined with a wiry, stubborn strength was a pleasant surprise that kept me interested from the very first few minutes. While school bullying in Korean dramas is certainly not a new concept, this show is somewhat different from the others I have seen. It centers on human emotions in a way that puts every character in a grey moral zone that makes them all incredible interesting to watch and also all too relatable.

It seems the ending was set up for a season two, and I really hope to see another set of episodes of this amazing show. I was completely hooked from start to finish!

The headline says it all --- the themes of this show are long overdue in its portrayal of the S. Korean HS life. Its the best show I've seen all year. Based on a Webtoon comic, Weak Hero is a unique take on the coming of age fighter tale as Yeon Si Eun uses his intellect and unbridled rage to fight and defend those who feel weak under the rules of society thus fall victim. Never has it been a clearer example of hurt people create more hurt people than in this incredible adaptation. Definitely a must watch for fans of South Korean Webtoon manhwas like Study Group, To Not Die and Viral Hit just to name a few.

Ok i watched many many kdramas this year BUT WEAK HERO BEATED ALL OF THEM WALLAHI I COULDNT MOVE ON AFTER A MONTH EVEN WHEN I TRIED TO WATCH OTHER DRAMAS PLS HELPPPP WE NEED SEASON 2.

So what i like the most about this drama is just that the storyline didnt tangle a bit, you will watch the entire set of episodes in just one sitting because please its hard to stop the screen i swear. It ran so smoothly that i couldnt even wanna close my eyes to miss a very tiny bit of a scene. Some actors here may not be recognised by most people yet they could prove them they all acted as in theyre professionals. THEY AMAZEBALLS IN ACTING, all of them. Sieun may impressed most pf you but they all actually did. They didnt have many unimportant chats, they used emotion strongly and actions or fights as needed. Not over. What i love about the main of main, SiEun, is that he had kinda adlibs, when he did the slaps himself, it was his idea, same like the glass breaking scene. He just told to do so yet hed improve the action more than the director ask him to. He were possessed by his characters many times so youd amazed by how strong his feelings would touch you.

I honestly don't have enough words to describe how much Season 2 of Weak Hero Class meant to me. It's rare to find a show that hits so hard emotionally while still delivering intense action and brilliant storytelling. Every episode had me completely hooked - I felt every punch, every tear, and every quiet moment. The characters grew in ways I didn't expect, and I found myself caring about them even more than before.

This season wasn't just good - it was unforgettable. You can feel the passion and effort behind every scene. That's why I truly believe a Season 3 isn't just something fans want - it's something we need. There's still so much more to explore, and I hope the creators know just how powerful this series is.

This is the first time in a long time that I haven't been able to stop thinking about a show!

I'm a huge fan of silent storytelling, and this show is full of it! So much of the storytelling and emotions are conveyed through subtle images and the actors' faces, rather than through words. The three leads are particularly good at this. There are tons of cool fight scenes, but the quiet, still moments are some of my absolute favorites.

I've seen plenty of great big budget shows with casts full of high profile actors, but sometimes shows like this are even better, in my opinion. It's the magic of really great writing, directing, and acting.

A heartbreaking and beautiful show. Absolutely brilliant.
