Same old plot, same old love triangle!

I was so excited for this drama thinking that it will give me something new and different but boy was I wrong.

Plot:
I'm so sorry but the idea of someone getting bullied and killed for trying to be friends with the most popular girl in school is so stupid. The fact that the whole plot is literally the most beautiful girl in the school makes silly decisions or mediocre decisions and some how it effects the whole school. I still don't understand how the ML fell for her. Honestly the whole show was trying to make us feel sorry for the rich students but I couldn't care less. Another thing I found annoying was how useless the ML was. He really had no plans on bringing down the school. His whole talk of getting the highest grade was so useless since we didn't see anything on grade ratings or him studying. I kind of wished he was more overpowered- having more tricks and secrets up his sleeves. Without the principals son, the ML wouldn't have found his brothers killer. And the fact that he can't fight was so anticlimactic - literally getting punched by everyone. Lastly, if you HATE love triangles, Dont watch this. Again the guys only love her because she is different and smiles once in a month. I feel like the love wasn't needed at all especially if you know your mission is to find your brothers killer, I Dont think you should be foliacing with girls.

Set and casting
The cinematography was stunning and the settings, houses and the school will call you broke in seven languages. I loved the cast. They can all act and visuals were on point. Too bad I was bored by the 3rd episode.

Music
One of the worst part of the show. It sounded like tesco Billie eilish. I couldn't tell whether was songs were in English or Korean.

Conclusion
Overall it wasn't bad. It was like every other mediocre rich kids drama but with a big budget. So anticlimactic And will leave you dissatisfied. If you want a movie to watch that is way better than this show with more drama and plot, watch student of the year.
