• 10 K-Dramas To Watch Revolving Around School Violence To Fill The Void While You Wait For “The Glory” Part 2

    The Glory, Song Hye Kyo's most recent TV show, has been a huge hit in Korea and around the world.

    If you haven't seen it yet, the story is about Song Hye Kyo's character, who gets back at the people who hurt her over and over again in high school.

    The show is about both school violence and getting even, which are both common themes in Korean dramas.

    The show is split into two parts, though. The first eight episodes came out on December 30, and the last eight will come out in March.

    In the meantime, if you want to watch something similar, here are some South Korean K-dramas that are also about school violence.

    Weak Hero Class 1

    Before The Glory, people were talking about how intense this webtoon-based series was.

    In this eight-part drama, Park Jihoon, Choi Hyun Wook, and Hong Kyung fight against violence inside and outside of school.

    Watch as Jihoon goes from being our "wink and "jeojang" boy to using scientific ideas to fight bullies.

    The King of Pigs

    This drama, like The Glory, is about violence and bullying in school and how they hurt people even 20 years later.

    This play takes the theme to a whole new level, and it even has a warning label.

    Kim Dong Wook and Kim Sung Kyu are in this drama with 12 episodes.

    Revenge of Others

    This Disney+ drama has the courage to talk about what happens after school violence.

    It's a drama about a girl (Shin Ye Eun) who wants to get revenge for her brother's death while also finding out about bullying, lies, and murder.

    Park Solomon and Seo Ji Hoon are also in the show.

    Dokgo Rewind

    This web show is about bullying, violence, and bribery in high schools. Watch as Sehun, the youngest member of EXO, takes down two bad school groups that bully students and steal money from them.

    Juvenile Justice

    This drama isn't really about bullying, but it is about how a tough judge deals with difficult cases in a juvenile court and how she punishes young offenders.

    A courtroom drama to show that kids don't get away with things.

    Kim Hye Soo plays a badass and strict judge in the drama.

    Who Are You: School 2015

    As part of the School Series, the theme of the 2015 book is bullies.

    Because the main character doesn't have parents and lives in an orphanage, she is picked on by other kids. Watch to see how she changed things for the better.

    This drama stars Kim So Hyun, Nam Joo Hyuk, and Yook Sung Jae.

    Shadow Beauty

    Because she doesn't look good, the main character's girlfriend gets picked on at school.

    The drama is based on a popular webcomic with the same name.

    It tells the story of how the main character, a girl, changes into someone else outside of school and how she fooled the people who picked on her.

    This show stars Shim Dal Gi, Hongseok from Pentagon, and Bomin from Golden Child.

    All Of Us Are Dead

    The whole thing started with a kid who was picked on and pushed off a roof by his bullies. It's more of a drama with an end of the world theme, but a bully is still a bully no matter what.

    True Beauty

    Another case of someone being picked on because they aren't as pretty as someone else.

    The drama isn't about school violence, but it does show how the main character was picked on because of how she looked and how she dealt with that.

    Moon Ga Young, Cha Eunwoo from ASTRO, and Hwang In Yeop are all in this very popular 2021 drama.

    How To Buy A Friend

    In this drama, two teenagers make a deal where one will protect the other from his bully if the other helps him find out what really happened when his girlfriend killed herself.

    This 2020 drama has eight episodes, and Lee Shin Young, Shin Seung Ho, and Kim So Hye are in them.

  • Former Crayon Pop's ChoA Opens Up About Her Struggle with Cervical Cancer: 'I Dream of the Day I Can Have a Drink with My Husband Again'"

    ChoA, former member of the girl group Crayon Pop, has bravely shared her ongoing battle with cervical cancer and her emotional journey.

    On January 28, ChoA posted a heartfelt update on her social media, explaining her struggles. "I usually laugh, talk, and live my life as usual, but there are moments when I suddenly face a reality that isn’t like before, and it gets tough," she shared.

    She went on to say, "Recently, something difficult happened, and in the past, I would have had a drink with my husband to shake it off. I really miss being able to do that."

    ChoA admitted that she still can’t fully believe her diagnosis. "When I face the reality I’ve been avoiding, my heart that I’ve built up breaks down," she said. "But the life I’m living now, which I’m still enjoying, is something that someone else might be wishing for. I try to gather my thoughts again with gratitude."

    She also expressed hope for the future, saying, "Lately, I dream of a day five years from now when I’ll be declared cancer-free and be able to have a drink with my husband after putting the kids to bed, after all the struggles. It’s been almost two years, so I believe the day I get that clean bill of health will come soon."

    ChoA married a businessman in 2021, six years older than her. In October 2023, she revealed her cervical cancer diagnosis, sharing that she had been diagnosed during a routine check-up in her first year of marriage.

    Despite everything, ChoA remains hopeful, noting that the cancer was smaller than expected during surgery, and she was able to preserve her fertility—a step closer to her dream of becoming a mother.
