Robbe IJzermans is the central character in the third season of wtFOCK, a main character in the first, fourth and fifth seasons, and a recurring character in the second. The third season follows Robbe IJzermans, Jens' best friend, as he grapples with his coming out as gay, as well as his balancing of his relationships with both his mother, who suffers from mental illness, and his love interest, Sander, who is bipolar.

Robbe is based on Isak Valtersen from the original Skam series, and is portrayed by belgian actor Willem Herbots.
Robbe is intelligent, caring and introverted. Although he portrays a very cheerful version of himself to his friends, he struggles a lot with his family life and his sexuality during Season 1, Season 2 and early Season 3. However, during his season we get a better insight into his way of dealing with problems. Robbe is serious, courageous and decisive. He makes choices based in logic, a great remark is him being the first Isak remake to break up with his girlfriend before getting involved with Sander. Robbe at a first glance looks tiny as he always wears oversized clothes, yet he is very athletic. He has brown wavy hair, brown eyes and cute dimples when he smiles. He is usually seen wearing a brown jacket with a green hoodie underneath, oversized jeans and sneakers.
