I think this was about interrogations and not purely combat. Both are great fighters, but probably have their own areas of expertise. Hwajin seems more of a leader type and Hamlin seems more like an assassin type
Hanlim*
did the author even emphasizes that hanlim is a better fighter than hwajin? besides, all throughout the arcs that we encountered so far there's no real fighting scene, not until the "boss group" finally made their move, and that's when hwajin for not for the first time showcased some of his moves, because if you really read the manhwa then you can basically see that hanlim is one of the character who constantly have a "field work" than hwajin who prioritize office work just because he is a leader. besides, hanlim's character is basically a type of a person who can't use words to counter but instead used physical means. also if you're relating your perspective/opinion in the previous chapter, hwajin means that he's not a better integrator than hanlim.
also, true education, if possibly have a good love adaptation then I'm sure that some injustice in Korea will be solve. especially for teachers right and there criminal law, which is not good.
live adaption*
How would injustice in Korea be solved if live adaptation is good? There’s so many big kdramas about bullying (teachers or students), as well as other huge social issues. Didn’t really change anything. I think your expectations are a bit too big even if somehow (I have no faith) the adaptation is decent
well, you got a point. there's so many k dramas about bullying or other issues in Korea (but they are not focus on teachers), as a college student, studying education, I highly regard teachers, and finding out that in Korea "students are more superior than teachers", you can't talk, critique, or even interfere in students fights because it will see as abuse to the students, and you might lose your job forever as a teacher. well, the manhwa didn't really just focus on teachers but get schooled basically is a more BOLDER manhwa that talks issues about Korea, that's why I am hoping that the adaptation is at least better.
also, I just realized that you're the one who replied on my comment and said that you love Philippines. thanks by the way! hope we could be friends!
I don’t think what this manhwa represents really reflects reality all that accurately though. It’s very dramaticized and seems like a hyperbole. I really doubt that teachers have that little influence in Korea to the point of being bullied and falsely accused of abuse. Actually, as far as I know they can still punish students just fine by making them for example do exercises etc. I never really heard about real case and law in Korea that would showcase what this manhwa does. You’re free to give me any sources if you know about this topic more than me. Rather they probably have issues due to parents more than students if anything. Also, corruption among teachers to ignore actual bullying seems like much more of a real issue. Get Schooled also may be bold, but it’s nowhere near being the only bold webtoons/shows about Korean issues. There’s honestly so many of this kind of webtoons/kdramas, especially with drastic bullying/corruption. Taxi Driver for example, in my opinion is far bolder. Not only it touches many different kind of real issues, it actually represents real cases. It showed The Burning Sun incident and ended (hopefully they pick it up for 3rd season on that case) introducing a case about female soldier that was r*ped in the army and it was covered up by higher ups.
Seems we both like to comment on here hahahah
Okay, just to add on. Yes, I think laws described here do exist, but I do still think they are a hyperbole. Now that I check statistics and articles, it seems mostly that teachers are dissatisfied with low pay and experience harassment very majorly from parents. Also, overworking and stressful environment add to the jobs difficulty.
The way I had to sit down to read each of your comments with each other hahaha pretty great points from you both I'd say. Learned a lot!
Thanks!
Y'all, I said it because that's what I thought, since hwajin said it himself, but why did the topic go to the live action of the manwha then to the issues of korea?
Hwajin didn’t say that tho, pretty sure he meant interrogations
Nah cuz wdym lim hanlim is better at combat than hwajin??
