3/4
"Itaewon Class" is one of those rare K-Dramas where I disliked both female leads for different reasons. But it just goes to show that a good series doesn't need a loveline to hold the viewer's interest. Go to Full Review

3.5/5
The show serves up a mix of flawed but likeable characters, inspirational speeches on chasing your dreams, and a love triangle that for much of the series looks genuinely like it could go either way. Go to Full Review

Daniel j @RT31441234 Oct 11 This drama was very versi good i like the story, the plot, the romancee anddd manyy unexpected momennn bestt drama i've ever watch See more Marius M @RT53610227 Apr 16 I am so disappointed for wasting my time with this show. It starts out fine but then the lead makes an irrational love choice that is completely out of character. See more Nitpit X @RT98652585 03/15/2024 Absolutely amazing show. Starting from the concept, this is not some shallow revenge story. This is much more than that. It's a battle between right and wrong. All characters are very very well written and so amazing, you would love to spend more and more time with them. A must watch kdrama for sure. Go for it. See more AD G @RT63285259 03/03/2024 It's worth watching drama I like it and I recommend to watch it you never regret See more John L @RT21680827 10/07/2023 Another Korean drama you have to watch. The cast is amazing. The story is well written and keeps your attention. You want to go to the next episode at 4 am. Not sure why not so many reviews but it must be one of the best k-Dramas. See more Jessica D @RT39831262 07/13/2023 I like this show except for the side story -- the romance. I like how they outline different issues in South Korea especially racism which is a very rare and controversial topic in the country. Also, the gender topic!! Itaewon Class team are very inclusive team and have different stories which a lot of audience would relate. T I like PSJ's personality here and how diverse the characters were. I just don't like the girl she ended up with. For some reason, I found her very exhausting. See more Read all reviews
