Hello everyone,
Itaewon Class has been a very popular drama and I enjoyed it, overall. In some ways, it has a very predictable plotline, as it is an underdog revenge story, with a love triangle, and the evil characters have no redeeming qualities about them whatsoever. At the same time, the female leads are very different from the stereotypical female characters. They are complicated, have layers to them, and you both love and hate them at the same time.
That being said, I think what makes this drama special are the supporting characters. Itaewon Class touches on issues like racial discrimination and transgender issues, all topics that I have yet seen to be explored in Korea, especially in a Kdrama. My favorite characters in particular were Ma Hyunyi and Choi Seungkwon and their story. Hyunyi’s growth and strength really inspired me. She is a beautiful character, both inside and out.
In this post I have rounded up some of the sunglasses featured into Netflix’s Itaewon Class. There’s a lot of street fashion highlighted in this drama and I always love the time and energy Kdrama’s put into accessorizes and clothing (granted a lot of it is sponsored).
