Overview
- Netflix released the full 10-episode series Teach You A Lesson on June 5, 2026, adapted from the Naver webtoon Get Schooled.
- The webtoon provoked a major backlash in 2023 that led WEBTOON to remove the title from its North American platform and the creators to apologise.
- Lead actor Kim Nam Gil declined the project in 2024 and was replaced by Kim Mu-yeol, whose performance drew viral clips after the series launched.
- Director Hong Jong-chan and the production team say they removed the webtoon's most inflammatory elements and stress that the show’s Educational Rights Protection Bureau is fictional.
- Reviews praise acting and the show’s focus on systemic failures in schools while Korean teachers’ groups warn the series could normalize physical force and revive the original work’s offensive elements.
