BEST SCHOOL 2024 for sure !
It is with a lot of emotion that I write this review because episode 8 left me in tears but with joy, I reassure you.
High school return of a gangster tells the story of a gang leader who sees his mind transferred to the body of a high school after an accident with him that will cost him his life. At first glance I think directly of DUDE IN ME, a Korean film that I loved for its concept of a confident adult who enters the body of a high school without insurance. We find this same vibe and that's why I hooked directly. Although the drama is inspired by the yaoi novel indeed here we censor and get our hands on a gay romance preferring a bro-mance that is just as strong and significant. Let me tell you that even 8 episodes are too few because I don't feel like I'm wasting my time watching this drama with an enormous amount of interesting and positive content in terms of morality. We therefore follow the new life of the gangster in this new body where he has a second chance in life to succeed while conducting a good deed for the body and the person he occupies. We follow both school adventures, through review sessions with friends, violence and justice towards his host's former executioners and also very fun moments when he behaves like a padré at his age and everyone makes him big eyes when he speaks like an old man xD it was epic. we address the theme of fatherhood, school failure, school harassment, friendship. There are also sub-stories related to the upstream gang that takes us out of the school circle as well. I had a great time with them and I appreciated that the executioners had a lesson, something that had not been done in hierarchy, here we took the necessary measures, and to close in style, the final is surprising and tearful an end really that I had not seen coming and of which I am really delighted. I enjoyed the acting of the protagonists: the actor Jae Hyeon made a lot go through the look and had a lot of charm and sensitivity. And finally the hero, the actor chan young was incredible because he managed to play two caps, both the old fearful and introverted yi heon, and the new yi heon totally extroverted determined and dark, in addition to having to think and behave like an adult! I say hat. A great school and surely the best of the year! I fully recommend. 10/10 !!!
