School Caste (2022)

Other name: 스쿨 카스트, Seukul Kaseuteu

Description:

"School Caste" delves into the rigid social hierarchy of a high school through the eyes of Je Ah, an aspiring writer. Initially, Je Ah observes her classmates, aiming to capture their lives for her stories. However, she soon discovers a deeply entrenched "caste system" among the students, reminiscent of India's social stratification, which dictates their friendships, status, and futures. As Je Ah meticulously documents this oppressive system, her role shifts from a detached observer to an increasingly disturbed witness of its cruel realities. The narrative takes a dramatic turn when Haneul, a student Je Ah barely knows, unexpectedly reveals shocking truths about Je Ah's own connection to and position within this very caste system. These revelations force Je Ah to confront unsettling facts about her identity and past, fundamentally challenging her perception of herself and her world, and transforming her understanding of the school's hidden power structures.
