clairerosean……
i think i understand what do you mean about the female teacher….she’s lack of confident, and sometimes acted too defeated when concerning about her personal life, i started to think that she has no character until the latest episodes when she;d stand up to her students more….she’s kind alright but not really the type of teacher that students will look up to…she’s a good companion, a good listener but not really compassionate…she’s quite passive there….actually this drama remind me of Gokusen…..yamaguchi sensei is my definition of perfect character…huhu
this drama is really good…i’m looking forward to heung soo and Nam soon….i like heung soo more and more…he didn’t really stand up in my eyes before but now he’d become one of my favourite actor….
January 18th, 2013 at 11:01 am
finish watch all eps aired, what I got from this is … I like all the scene when Nam soon and Heung Soo together … not so impress with all the teacher char .. just so so ..
I like Kim Woo Bin, since in GD .. she is perfect for the role as school child who seemed cold and ‘Selengean’.. make so curious and wanted to be close
Nam soon .. he is cute n perfect with Heung soo, wakakkakakaka as friend!!!
January 20th, 2013 at 3:17 pm
Epi 13 really has all the emotions felt with everyone, Min Ki, especially with his mom.. Jung Ho that forever arrogant face could also falter and his poem to the teacher.. classic isnt it? Loving the relation between Heung So and Nam Soon more and more.
I felt the students perform much better than the teachers here.. their characters in this drama are somewhat bland and stagnant.. I guess this drama is focusing more on the lives of the students.
Overall, I enjoyed the drama so far. Kudos to another well written drama!

The teachers are the anchors of this show. W/o them, there’d be no stories of the students!
It is the teachers who play the role of peacemaker between Nam Soon n Heung Soo; it is the teachers who save Oh Jung Ho time after time; it is the teachers, esp. Teacher Jung, who bring Jung Ho’s friend around from the brink; It is she who brings Min Ki down fr the roof n takes him home; it s the teachers who cover up their teenage indiscretions for time, n give them another chance in school, in life!
This show is a tribute and a reminder to teachers everywhere that the Best teacher is not the one who has the best presenting skills at the blackboard, but the one who has the biggest heart! In this show, it is Teacher Jung, n then by her influence, bit by bit Teacher Kang as well.
Only 1 ep left. I’ll miss it for its gt writing, for bringing all these chars to life, n for making us care abt their teenage angst, which would otherwise have been silly to grown ups!
January 23rd, 2013 at 5:18 pm
In ep 15, Nam Soon n Heung Soo finally ‘kiss n make up’, figuratively speaking. They tell each other how they really feel abt each other, n that resolution is as moving n satisfying as any OTP union! Don’t we wish we had a friend like that, one who feels lonely or incomplete n lonely w/out us, one who goes thru hell seeking us, or failing that one like us, but fails, n ends us waiting for us?
Oh Jung Ho’s two friends r pretty awesome too. They r willing to go thru much trouble looking out for him.
This is their 2nd yr of hi school. They’ve another year to go. I’d like to follow them till they all graduate, till some of them go to college, some go to technical school. I’d like to see Nam-soon n Heung Soo grow up to do wonderful things together, leading happy lives. Can’t they continue this show for like a few more years?
January 23rd, 2013 at 7:08 pm
Yap yap… agree 2 @KDaddict .. want to see Nam soon N Heung soo go to college N what will happen to them when met a girl they like..how they share the story … maybe almost like in GD !! .. hmmm pasti seru ; D)

@KDaddict
Yeah, please i also want this show to never end. It has the potential for 200 70 min eps. The story of HS-NS alone can fill 100 eps. I’m really grateful for not having those unbelievable love stories among students here. Who can deny that friendship is much more important than love when you are a high schooler.
January 24th, 2013 at 4:52 pm
Watching namsoon and heungsu makes me cry. I still have to wait til Monday to watch ep 10. Wished this drama never ends. I want to watch them forever. ♡♡♡

What can I say about this drama… it awesome. By far one of the best drama I seen thus far. The writers did a great job relating with school issues , friendships and teachers. I relate to this drama so much because every ep. bring to life what this issues are that teen faces during high school that its not all fun, that you have to take school seriously.I just love the teachers in this drama mostly(Jung In Jae) she really deserve an award for having faith in her class when know one was giving them a chance. I wish more teachers were like her, if we have that I think more students would come to school n enjoy it because they know they have a teacher like her in their corner.
A lot of ppls talk about the lack of romance in this drama , honestly i was one of them at first but after watching a few ep. and really enjoy them, I honestly didn’t care much after having romance in this drama. The drama is doing really well without it !
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVVVVVVVVVVEEE THIS DRAMA ITS ACTUALLY ONE OF MY Fav K- drama I have seen, and i seen a lot . Wish there would be more eps. I wouldnt mind if this had 100 or even 50. So sad that next week its the last ep. I’m going to miss them!! =’( (I would re watch this again tho lol

This drama reminds me of back when I was schooling. so strong friendship makes me want to find back my friends that have long disappeared and teachers who really care for the students. I was totally impressed with the characters brought in this drama. I hope to see the end of an interesting story and touched hearts.

No extensions??

@KDaddict / SaraSJS / hny .. nice meeting all of you here..
I love this drama, its the first I’ve seen which is so different in the sense that it does not have the usual drunk scene or the love triangle agony. All about friendship, loyalty and devotion. Just simply captivating. Well done writers for making such a simple story so heartfelt.
January 29th, 2013 at 11:00 am
Master of Study is the same. I liked that as well. Not a big fan of the, as you put it, the triangle agony. Loved Secret garden for that reason as well.
January 29th, 2013 at 4:35 pm
there will be next season…. i hope…
January 29th, 2013 at 5:12 pm
The ending was so hasty!!!
I’ve watched it. I think will be there season 6-___-
All student advance to class 3 but Oh Jong Ho, where does he go?
January 29th, 2013 at 6:46 pm
OOh noooo… it’s end????…the drama really end????? Nam Soon~ah I’ll miss you already… Huuuuuaaaaa…. Nam soon~ah kachigaaa…..
January 29th, 2013 at 8:07 pm
such a bitter sweet ending. love this drama, i learnt a lot about what teachers go through. i hv a totally different perspective of schools now.
January 29th, 2013 at 11:12 pm
It has ended!
Nam Soon and Heung Soo seriously look good together! Not that they don’t look good individually. But together, they amplify each other’s attractiveness. Nam Soon is sweet and cute; Heung Soo is cool n masculine. What a pair. NS has no one but HS. HS only has an older sister. I hope they go thru life together.
You can see the acting of these 2 young men is heads n shoulders above the other students, esp. the 3 men gang of Oh JH. Those 3 appear green compared to these 2. That’s why they r the leads.
I didn’t know Jang Nara b4 n didn’t watch Daniel Choi b4. It shows that it only takes a sympathetic role to turn non-fans into fans.
Sure hope there is a School 2014. I think so. Why else call this show School 2013, if not to differentiate it from School 2014, 2015, 2016, etc.?
January 29th, 2013 at 11:12 pm
I finished watch the Special Ep just now. It is boring!
January 29th, 2013 at 11:24 pm
Daniel Choi is soooo cool!
This drama is really something. I wish all teachers are as compassionate & emphatic as they are.
January 30th, 2013 at 6:34 pm
@KDaddict
you didn’t know nara n daniel? They’re cute couple from drama baby face beauty.
I love that drama so much. Good drama!
watch it. They’re totally cute! <3

Been a fan of Choi Daniel since I saw him in The Musical. Fan of Lee Jong Suk since I saw him in Secret Garden. Fan of Kim Woo Bin since I saw him in Gentlemen’s Dignity. It was eay to note their potential as actors. I hope they have long careers.

Jang Nara looks like a tall mouse
February 5th, 2013 at 5:21 am
One of the bad guys had lipstick gloss in episode 11 when he was being questioned by Daniel Choi…eeewwww! These guys are so gay!
February 5th, 2013 at 8:13 pm
What a ridiculous drama. I wasted my time with this drama!what a joke.
