Revenge of Others

Two twins remain in contact after one of them is adopted as a young child. Years later when the boy twin allegedly commits suicide his twin sister enrols in his school to find the truth behind his death. At the school she finds excessive bullying and many suspects as the story unfolds with many twists and turns. The story is well acted especially the two leads Park Solomon and Shin Ye-eun but I would have liked more back stories on the supporting cast as I feel it would have made it more interesting. As is often the case in these dramas the police and school officials are inept and so it is down to the students to pursue justice or revenge.

If you're into thriller ,adrenaline rush dramas then this one is the must watch...you will come to like every character....this drama is full of emotions nd since this drama is murder mystery and does not focus on any sport ,politics like thing ,it isn't a bit of boring. I would like to tell the rom viewers that it doesn't involve a bit of romance...... but I can give u guarantee that if u have watched tomorrow , vincenzo ,etc like drama then u should watch this one too u won't regret

With this, I have finished watching 90 dramas nd since I'm very particular about which drama I watch and considering I really enjoyed watching it I hope you'll too consider watching this one.

I just finished the 10th episode of the series, and what a series this was! The season finale 11th and 12th episode will be aired on December 14th 2022. And I can't wait to watch it to know the ending.

This series was about Ok Chan Mi tried to uncover who murdered her twin brother. They were abandoned by their parents since childhood and sent to an orphanage in Busan. Ok Chan Kyu, the twin brother, was adopted by a couple from Seoul and moved there while Chan Mi remained in the orphanage. Ten years later, Ok Chan Kyu, whose name now changed to Park Won Seok, murdered at his school, but the police closed the case as suicide.

Grieved and angered by this incident, Ok Chan Mi transfered herself to his late twin brother school, in order to find who killed him. But some shocking facts revealed while Ok Chan Mi investigated the case, that made her wondered, what kind of person his late twin brother was?! A good person, a bad person, a manipulative one or a hero one?!

Each episode kept us guessing who's the bad guy. Never ruled out one single suspect, because each person carried his/her own secrets and interest. And Park Solomon (All Of Us Are Dead) really shines in this series. Don't miss that one!

Thrilling 9/10.

A complex murder mystery. You need to concentrate but it's worth it. The writer has written some great series like Rooftop Prince so the story is expertly constructed without plot holes. Every scene means something and it all comes together in the end. The level of involvement in the story is high because the characters are interesting and multi faceted both good and bad. This is no simplistic teen high school series. There is some graphic bullying here and tense violence. Compared to another bullying show from the same year, The Glory I found this one a lot better and more involving.

A girl transfers to a high school where her twin brother was murdered. The cast is well chosen and charismatic enough to root for. Shin Ee Yun looks just a bit mature for high school but she gets your sympathy fast. Some of the guys were in All of us are dead including Park Solomon.

Worth watching!

Hey, hold on a second..." Chan-mi's brother paused their conversation. She hears some shuffling and then the phone goes dead. She never talked to him again. The police ruled it a suicide. She knows that isn't what happened - and her brother's phone is missing.

She decides to transfer to his school for senior year to find out who the killer is. She's a competitive marksman, and she's able to transfer to the school shooting club. She rents a room in Seoul and buys a used scooter.

Soo "Heon" is a HS student and sometimes boxer. What he doesn't know is that he has a brain tumor - it's bad, it's inoperable, and it might cause personality changes. His scooter's been stolen and it's already up for sale. When he gets to the location, there's a girl about to ride away. That's how they meet.

RoO is a 2022 release that is rated 90 on AWiki. It is 1 season consisting of 12 60-minute episodes. I go into these shows cold with no intel; the rating is the only tip (I'm not yet ready to invest my time in something rated under a "6" - I'm late to the Asian programming game and I've got too many top tier titles to catch up on). That leaves me in a state of being open to /actively wanting to/ love it, but wary of disappointment. As RoO went on, I appreciated it more and more. It is ROUGH by Kcountry (or any other) standards. Ep9 stressed me out. It gradually became evident that this is an excellent drama, mystery, and thriller - with an above average romance tossed into the mix. RoO holds its own in the first half and then starts to get quite good in ep7. It is violent. Vicious. And intensely gripping.

Shin Ye Eun (Jeongnyeon: The Star Is Born, More Than Friends-8) plays Ok Chan-mi. She grew up in an orphanage. Her twin brother was adopted around the age of 8, but they've kept up their relationship via the phone for years now. She isn't going to let his death go unanswered. The almost pretty but quite manly Lomon (All of Us Are Dead) portrays ML Heon. He's gotta be a good guy; he's good to cats. Seo Ji Hoon (Flower Crew: Joseon Marriage Agency-7.4, Begins Youth, Solomon's Perjury) portrays Seok Jae Beom, the student who lost his memories because of an accident that he had the year before. He's the son of a chaebol. His mother is overly worried about him and he has a mysterious tormentor.

Chae Sang Woo (The Nokdu Flower) plays Gi Oh Sung, an entitled, condescending jerk who never lifts up the lives of anyone around him. He brings everyone down. Lee Soo Min (Twinkling Watermelon) is Kook Ji Hyun, the female version of Gi Oh Sung. She might even be worse. Jung Soo Bin (Rookie Cops, It's Okay!) Is erotically white-haired Tae So Yeon who is devoted to Heon because he rescued her from savage bullies. The screenwriter is Lee Hee Myung (Rooftop Prince) and the director is Kim Yoo Jin (Dog Knows Everything). I haven't seen their other works but Ima check 'em out now. As for the music, You And I, by Ha Geun Yeong, is VG. Every element of RoO shines: Acting, directing, art, camera work, writing... RoO is a talent showcase. It hits all its targets.

Chan-mi brother's adopted parents had changed his name, so no one knows she's his sister. She has to walk a fine line between acting merely curious while keeping her relationship with the deceased a secret, lest she get fed lies and become a target herself. She starts asking around, but the answers she gets are far from what she expected. Her encounters with the adopted parents reveal people of the worst self-righteous sort. After reports of her brother's bullying make their way back to Chan-mi, she has to wonder if these people who raised her brother actually ruined him? Chan-mi also discovers that her brother had a secret he did not want others to know, especially in Kcountry.

As she continues to investigate it stirs up trouble. She is attacked. Circumstances keep Chan-mi and Heon running into eachother. He helps her, and she returns the favor with a bigger favor. Before long, they have an alliance, of sorts. Chan-mi doesn't reveal her identity or purpose, though, especially since everything seems to point to Heon as a possible suspect. There's clearly attraction between the two of them, so Chan-mi's turmoil is visceral.

Revenge is the theme. There are multiple parties seeking revenge, even when they have no justification for it. Justice is always proper, but revenge can destroy the one who seeks it. Often there is a fine line - some bleeding over. Everyone wants revenge, but sometimes people take revenge against an innocent party. Chan-mi is on the brink of making some dubious decisions and horrible mistakes. In the meantime, the show features a minor who stabbed a girl brutally because she wouldn't date him. He had no fear because he's a minor and Kcountry's laws are soft on the under-aged. A couple of students decide to fill the gaps left by the law and administer revenge... eh, justice ~> Harsh justice. Chan-mi is not the only character in RoO with a score to settle. It gets very tangled: Teachers, bullies, victims, police, siblings, crushes, plots, connected parents, political parents, the wealthiest parents, /gangsters/ and so many kids trying to cope.

At one point one of the gang is thrown into a van and driven off by bad guys. They decide to wait until the morning to tell the police, which makes no sense. This person is an imminent danger. The way it played out is exciting, so we can forgive them, right? In the end, when the killer is revealed, it is a touch underwhelming, but it is good enough... ✋Hold on! I wrote that too soon. That's just the /beginning/ of the end. The very end is very, very good! So stick with it.

RoO delves into the fact that we trust the police and government less and less in modern society. Ask someone under 25. The entire student body enters into a tacit agreement as RoO closes. They won't be talking to the cops. The bigger the group, the more likely there will be a weasel who spoils it for love of attention. So, the viewer is asked to accept a premise that would be extraordinary IRL. You'll have to watch to know what I mean. If one can roll with it, the emotional satisfaction is the reward. For the most part, RoO deftly manages impressive twists and turns. I'm not saying that no one can figure them out (I, myself, happen to be terrible at that😞). The writing is simply very skillful and brilliantly executed. RoO is a top-notch thriller, all-around. Get it while it's hot!
