Masterpiece Thriller Web Series I Ever Watched My Life I Got Ghoosebumps So Many Damn......... Background Music So Exellent... Special His Story Telling Soo Good........ I Love This Web series Hats Off🙌.
Just finished this show & came here to see the rating and reviews!!! There is none!!! As usual one hell of an experience 👌🏻 Just Loved the way every main lead portrayed the characters!! The boys who did the school life roles just simply did their roles outstanding! The extreme level of bullying and extreme level of payback !!
Masterpiece Korean Series! An intense thriller created on an impactful storyline of bullying in childhood. Kudos to the creators for picking up this storyline of bullying n bullying is very real n it has taken many lives n left many mentally handicapped n it exists even today for real. Starts on a very weird note n looks unpromising in the beginning but the way it evolves n unfolds is brilliant. Basically story revolves around revenge for the damage caused by bullying in childhood. The characterisation n direction gets full point. Kim Chul as a child actor leaves an unforgetful impact. There was not even one moment where it feels bored. Climax was extremely unique than any can imagine. A must watch if you like psychological thrillers. 12 episodes series Available in all major languages including Hindi. My ratings 9/10!
The direction of the show is impeccable; from the plot to the characters, and even the actors' performances, everything is top-notch. It effectively portrays the impact of bullying on its victims and their enduring suffering. While the story is fictional, it realistically depicts a scenario that could occur without the revenge killings. It sheds light on how bullies often move on with their lives while their victims continue to struggle. The series is meticulously crafted to captivate viewers, although its lack of virality is regrettable. Nevertheless, this series is a hidden gem. The only gripe I have is the portrayal of the police as slow. Although it serves the narrative, it's a minor annoyance for me. Despite this, the series is well worth my time and certainly didn't disappoint.
The King of Pigs is not an easy watch-it's brutal, disturbing, and painfully real. But that's exactly why it matters.
This drama dives deep into the long-lasting scars of school bullying, social hierarchy, and systemic violence. It's a chilling psychological thriller that doesn't rely on gore or jump scares, but rather on the terrifying weight of trauma, silence, and unresolved pain. Every episode felt like a punch to the gut, especially as the characters' pasts began to unravel.
Kim dong-wook and kim sung-kyu gave such intense, raw performances. Their portrayals of broken adults shaped by childhood abuse made it impossible to look away. You're not just watching their story-you're forced to confront the systems and cruelty that created them.
What haunts me the most is how the series shows the cycle of violence: how the bullied can become the aggressor, how silence becomes complicity, and how justice doesn't always mean healing. It doesn't offer comfort, and maybe that's the point.
It's not a drama i can rewatch easily, but it's one i won't forget. The King of Pigs is a necessary story-harsh, but honest. If you're ready to face the darkness, it's worth it.
