There was news this week that actor Kim Nam Gil was doing the K-drama Get Schooled (based on webtoon True Education) as his next drama. Netizens got upset because the original webtoon story has elements of violence, racism, and misogyny. But if you ask me, those elements likely are the issues in the webtoon the teacher character is there to educate the students into NOT doing. But it appears netizens don’t want to see this type of story onscreen regardless and so complained that Kim Nam Gil was agreeing to star in it. He released a statement this weekend explaining that he turned it down already, and the news about him starring in it was the production asking him to reconsider and offering it to him again. But he’s not doing the drama and looks forward to sharing his return to the small screen in The Fiery Priest 2 with viewers.
