Hierarchy Review: K-drama graduating from Netflix’s school is messy and overdone; Lee Chae Min starrer disappoints | Web Series

Hierarchy, the new Netflix original pitched as a high school coming-of-age story (Korean version of Elite, they say), promised a fusion of tried and tested K-drama concepts with a dash of Western influence or should we say ‘loads.’ Thrown in were supposed thrills and plot twists.

Rising stars Roh Jeong Eui, Lee Chae Min, and Kim Jae Won out their best front up. But the show's attempt to be all things at once – upbeat, suspenseful, with a feel-good ending – backfired. The plot meandered, sacrificing a clear narrative for a forced happy conclusion. Now catch your favourite game on Crickit....
