Righteous Gangster teaches about Life & Friendship! (A Short, Must Watch Drama)

This drama is heart-warming with tinge of action & comedy focusing on deep topics of bullying, child abuse, chaebol politics, family, friendships & life! Not your general soul/body swap drama, this one takes you on a ride in a crisp format of 8 episodes, that is satisfying in terms of plot, acting, music, visuals - putting it my list of best dramas of 2024, and definitely one of the best in short drama category.

➥ Best Parts:
• ML Yoon Chan Young's dual role as an ahjusshi possessed high-schooler and emo-high school kid. Perfect Voice & Acting!
• Perfect action sequences!
• Great depiction & addressal of issues of school bullying, child abuse - with actual and hint of remorse & reformation.
• The gangster sidekicks were amazing - scary, charismatic, comedic but overall loyal. Delight to watch!
• ML giving love/care/respect to those who deserve it, and kicking as where needed.
• ML relationship with SML: starts on the wrong foot but quickens to a great bromance, making SML overcome his own fears.
• The ending - bittersweet, but happy and satisfying!
• The antagonist is a killer actress, even in less screentime, she gives a mean hateful aura. Shows a job done well!

➥ Special mention: Won Tae Min playing Dong Soo is handsome & talented, looking forward to see him in other dramas

➥ Weak Parts:
None - speaking in terms of Story, Acting, Cast, Music and every other metric. But feeling-wise, it was not a masterpiece when I compare it to other dramas I have seen in my life. Still a very, very, very good drama especially done well in a short format.

➥ Overall: Highly Recommended to Watch!
8 Episodes + Good Plot, Acting, Music, Visual + Satisfying Pace & Ending. Also, Yoon Chan Young is an actor to watch out for - his voice and visuals are definitely noteworthy! ❤️
