South Korea has spent years dealing with serious school bullying issues. We've seen heartbreaking stories of students suffering severe emotional trauma, dropping out of school, and in some cases even taking their own lives because of bullying.
That's why I find the reaction to Teach You a Lesson interesting.
Yes, it's a drama. Yes, it's exaggerated. And yes, the methods used by the characters would never be acceptable in real life. But I don't think the reason so many people are watching and supporting it is because they want violence to solve problems.
I think people are connecting with it because it reflects a frustration that many victims and their families have felt for years: the feeling that the system often fails to protect those who are being bullied.
When viewers cheer for the characters, they aren't necessarily cheering for violence. They're cheering for accountability. They're cheering for a world where someone actually steps in, listens to victims, and makes sure bullies face consequences.
If a drama about school violence resonates with so many people, maybe the question shouldn't be "Why does this show exist?" Maybe the question should be "Why are so many people relating to it in the first place?"
To me, that says more about the public's frustration with bullying than it does about the drama itself.
Only one chance in this lifetime…
Like watching sunset at the beach from the most foreign seat in the cosmos, I couldn’t resist a cell phone video of Earthset. You can hear the shutter on the Nikon as @Astro_Christina is hammering away on 3-shot brackets and capturing those exceptional Earthset photos through the 400mm lens. @AstroVicGlover was in window 3 watching with @Astro_Jeremy next to him.
I could barely see the Moon through the docking hatch window but the iPhone was the perfect size to catch the view…this is uncropped, uncut with 8x zoom which is quite comparable to the view of the human eye. Enjoy.
This is the image that will define this war - 165 young Iranian girls, killed while at school, who are mere ‘collateral damage’ to an out of control US-Israeli war machine.
