You've never watched Korean drama like this before. For the first time in South African history, Viu is bringing you K-dramas dubbed in isiZulu – so you can enjoy every twist, gasp and love triangle in your mother tongue. It's Korean storytelling with local flair – and Iqhawe Labafundi (High School: Return of a Gangster) leads the way.
What happens when a 47-year-old gangster suddenly finds himself trapped in the body of a suicidal high school kid? Drama. That's what. And not just your usual schoolyard stuff – we're talking life-and-death choices, buried secrets and an unlikely quest for redemption that plays out one high-stakes day at a time.
Meet Kim Deuk Pal: a career gangster who's always dreamed of going to university. But after a chance encounter with a bullied teen, he wakes up in the boy's body, with no idea how to switch back. The result? He's forced to live out a teenage life he never had, while trying to protect a boy who'd almost given up on life.
