EI rey de los cerdos

The King of Pigs is not an easy watch-it's brutal, disturbing, and painfully real. But that's exactly why it matters.

This drama dives deep into the long-lasting scars of school bullying, social hierarchy, and systemic violence. It's a chilling psychological thriller that doesn't rely on gore or jump scares, but rather on the terrifying weight of trauma, silence, and unresolved pain. Every episode felt like a punch to the gut, especially as the characters' pasts began to unravel.

Kim dong-wook and kim sung-kyu gave such intense, raw performances. Their portrayals of broken adults shaped by childhood abuse made it impossible to look away. You're not just watching their story-you're forced to confront the systems and cruelty that created them.

What haunts me the most is how the series shows the cycle of violence: how the bullied can become the aggressor, how silence becomes complicity, and how justice doesn't always mean healing. It doesn't offer comfort, and maybe that's the point.

It's not a drama i can rewatch easily, but it's one i won't forget. The King of Pigs is a necessary story-harsh, but honest. If you're ready to face the darkness, it's worth it.

Superb direction.

Superb acting A must must watch legendary series.

Shows dark side of childhood.

Superb portray of friendship.

Thriller and mysterious.

It's criminal for this series hasn't got many reviews. If this was on Netflix this would've been viral. If you love thriller, this one's for you. Fast paced and edge of seat kinda series. Sad, gritty and gory at the same time. Hope this gets more attention.

Masterpiece Thriller Web Series I Ever Watched My Life I Got Ghoosebumps So Many Damn......... Background Music So Exellent... Special His Story Telling Soo Good........ I Love This Web series Hats Off🙌.

Korean Drama " The King of Pigs " is a serial killer story with a slow build-up.

The drama is truly dark, not shying away from the gore, which wasn't only there for the shock effect, but to enhance the intensity of the drama. The background story was near horrifying and is being explained slowly, as it helps uncover the current murder case as well.

In addition, the performances were great by everyone in the cast.

And the ending suited the drama perfectly, with the pace of the story fast. The cinematography of the series was pretty impressive too, with the flashbacks well handled.

So, overall, eight out of ten.
