A cruel and deep story about school violence victims

(no plot spoilers) This drama will be reminded as a masterpiece of its kind. It's shocking and insane. It will make you emotional and anxious for most of the time. You will watch it without knowing how it will end up... it's an unforgettable ride.
Bullying... is something we saw frequently, and something that many of us sadly went through. I did too, and I still have emotional scars that I try to forget, but I can't. You can't help somehow to cheer for the main guy, even if it's wrong. You end up to think at what they had to go throught, about what is wrong and what right. About how society and school fail so many times to protect innocents. And what if you lose yourself- It's so scary to even think about it.
The theme of the self and the others is something present for the whole drama. Are you a pig or a dog?
Are you a victim or a perpetrator? Are you someone ready to fight for justice or to survive in exchange of your own conscience?
The main characters of this drama are victims of a system that didn't protect them and ruined their life forever.
The acting is really stellar, I couldn't ask for better actors. From the kids to the adults versions.. everything felt so perfect.
Violent and cruel, I don't think it's something for everyone, but I can't help myself from suggest it. You, have to watch it.
