I Am a Running Mate (Season 1)

One awkward moment on a bus, and a model student's reputation goes up in smoke. I Am a Running Mate (2025) is a South Korean school drama you can watch online on iFILM. Se-hoon used to be the kid teachers held up as an example, until an embarrassing nickname stuck for good.

Hoping to rebuild his image, he agrees to join the student council race as someone's running mate — and slowly finds himself at the dead center of the whole campaign. What starts as a way to save face turns into something sharper: vote-trading, shifting alliances, small betrayals and outsized ambition. Directed by Han Jin-won, it's a coming-of-age story for viewers who remember that teenage politics can be more ruthless than the grown-up kind. Stream I Am a Running Mate (2025) online on iFILM.
