Focus on Bullying: Both stories feature protagonists who are bullied regularly. In "Boyhood," Mason faces physical and emotional bullying from his classmates and even older students. In "Weak Class Hero," Yeon-Shi suffers relentless academic and physical harassment from the "Union 3," a tyrannical student gang.
Coming-of-Age Struggles: Both narratives depict the challenges and uncertainties of growing up. In "Boyhood," Mason navigates first relationships, academic pressures, and family difficulties. In "Weak Class Hero," Yeon-Shi grapples with his anger, isolation, and the desire for justice.
Underdog Protagonists: Both protagonists are initially portrayed as weak and vulnerable. Mason shrinks from confrontation and seeks solace in escapism. Yeon-Shi, though physically capable, lacks the confidence and strategy to challenge the bullies directly.
Transformation and Growth: Over time, both characters experience a subtle but significant transformation. Mason develops a stronger sense of self and learns to navigate social complexities. Yeon-Shi, through strategic maneuvers and alliances, begins to dismantle the Union 3's power structure

Both are action packed stories with focus on friendship instead of romance.
Weak hero is more focused on relationships and emotions, while maintaining great story telling and action bits while Black Knight focuses more on the main story and the main conflict. Black Knight doesn't develop the characters as much but there's still sense of comraderie and the general feeling of vindication is the same
