Synopsis
Na Bori (Gong Hyo Jin) is a 25 year old woman who desperately wants to be a teacher at the high school she was kicked out of due misunderstanding with her teachers over injuring a group of male classmates. After getting her GED, she rejects job offers from other high schools and works on becoming a teacher at her old high school so she could work side by side with her high school love interest, the art teacher Ji Hyun Woo (Kim Da Hyun). However, the only thing that enables her to get the coveted job is by signing a contract to essentially babysit Park Tae In (Gong Yoo), a troublemaker who attends the same high school. Tae In, a lonely youth, quickly becomes the “jjang”, or “king” of the high school, and enjoys playing mean tricks on Bori whose easygoing personality attracts the majority of her students. Noh Jemma (Choi Yeo Jin) is jealous of the relationship between Bori and Tae In, and goes out of her way to get Bori kicked out but she’s not the only one against them…

Was interesting with the first 2-3 episodes but downhill from there….

I adored this series. It’s hard to be objective about it though, because I’m so crazy about Gong Yoo. I am kinda star struck whenever he’s on screen. I liked the writing, too. I think they could have waited a little longer before he fell in love with her. He fell for her too fast, but I was still hooked because, well, what girl wouldn’t want Gong Yoo drooling after them? Truth is though, we don’t watch Korean dramas to see the two leads get along. We want to see them fight. We want to see tensions rise. Hence the word “drama”
Her character seemed ambitionless, which bugged me a little. But she also had some growing up to do, and if one looks at it in that light, it’s not so bothersome. And she really respected the teacher/student boundaries, which I was grateful for. It showed that she had integrity. Her background cracked me up. I wish they had used a little more of that super hero image of hers throughout the story.
But I’ve watched this a couple times. I really really like this one.

watched it & like it!!! gong yoo is fabulous! highly recommended!!!
July 6th, 2007 at 10:54 am
funny and lovely…every episode have stunning presentation…
September 30th, 2007 at 11:15 am
I love Gong Yoo so much that’s why I watched it but then after the show goes on, it’s become more interesting especially the stories of Na Bori’s students..Real life drama among high school students..very good drama!
November 2nd, 2007 at 4:58 pm
i have just finished watching this on a dvd. it was good.. because Gong Yoo is there! so crazy about him! He acted well on this drama, and he’s so damn funny!! if not for him, maybe i would find this drama boring.
November 17th, 2007 at 10:43 pm
loved this drama especially gong yoo. he’s the best.. see how he cried when Na bOri will marry Ji Hyun Woo, my, it’s so kilig…. that made me loved gong yoo among korean actors.
January 17th, 2008 at 1:17 pm
I have watched this series for a couple times now. At first i thought that it was a bore but it got better every minute. It was written very well and this is now my favorite.
January 23rd, 2008 at 8:55 pm
Gong Yoo is versatile noh? He can even perform as a villain well sa walang kwentang movie na My Tutor Friend. Anyhoo, he’s character here is much like Han Kyul on Coffee Prince. Carefree and stubborn, yet loveable. He plays a Highschool student so well kasi nga he’s appearance is so boy next door. The series is so nice & worth watching. Pero di sila bagay ni Gong Hyo Jin, she looks old kase. Ü

Indeed Gong Yoo is a versatile actor. I’ve watched him in Coffee Prince, hence I got curious. So, I found another series that features him, and got this one. After watching it, I was even more impressed. He’s a natural. With good looks and everything, he’ll definitely become of the better actors in Korean cinema industry.
February 7th, 2008 at 4:20 pm
Sorry, about the last line…it should be “….become one of the better actors in….”
February 13th, 2008 at 4:40 pm
hey, guys, sana we can request GMA to show this one. filipinos will surely fall for this as they do with coffee prince. personally, it made me evaluate my performance when i was given the chance to teach high school kids a year ago. i did poorly compared to teacher na bo ri. sigh…
February 14th, 2008 at 12:22 am
the story was good and not really bad but keep going
March 7th, 2008 at 10:38 pm

March 25th, 2008 at 10:47 pm
Not bad, just a little bit boring. I’m still an avid fan of Goong Yoo. I’ve watched Gong Hyo Jin in Sang Doo “let’s go to school, it’s almost similar. It’s 5/10
April 28th, 2008 at 2:15 pm

June 24th, 2010 at 7:31 pm
love korean drama much,,
June 28th, 2010 at 3:30 pm
I just watch it yesterday. I like Gong Yoo and Gong Hyo Jin. But I’d prefer Gong Hyo Jin in Thank You and Pasta. The way they make her hair was not that suitable. Maybe they tried to get her look older than Gong Yoo. Anyway, I’d enjoy this drama.
July 27th, 2010 at 9:07 am
I haven’t watch this series yet… probably later on I will post my personal view about this series.
I know Gong Hyo Jin is one of great actress in koreaa. I watched both ‘Thank You and ‘Pasta.’ `Loved it. Loved her acting and the way her performances…very real.
July 27th, 2010 at 4:10 pm
Not really fantastic unless you are Gong Yoo’s fan.
October 24th, 2010 at 12:54 pm
I love this drama, since I watched Thank you and Coffee Prince I love Gong Yoo and Gong Hyo Jin Performance, they are my favorite actor and actress so this drama also one of my favorite Korean Drama.
And I like Jang Hyuk also, his performance is awesome.
October 24th, 2010 at 1:00 pm
Why I can’t download this drama’s OST ? Can somebody help me so I can download the song ? Thank you.
February 6th, 2011 at 1:31 am

May 13th, 2011 at 2:20 pm
Oh my favorite drama!
This is something different from other dramas… anyone who says it is boring, don’t listen to!
It was one of the best dramas I’d ever seen…Thanks to Gong hyo jin and Gong yoo for their fantastic acting.

Greatest Love just finished its run. If you miss Gong HJ, watch Hello, My Teacher. (It’s Korean name is: Biscuit Teacher, Candy Star). It features Gong Yoo, a year b4 Coffee Prince. He plays a lonely, rebellious youth, who is a repeat final year high school student in love w his temp teacher (GHJ). Her students nickname her Biscuit. She calls him Candy Star. It (he) is cute, funny, romantic n moving. He is not goofy like Dokko Jin in GL, but since he is 20, he is naturally childish in some ways. As a man-child, he is more mature than Dokko Jin in some ways. Gong Yoo has such lovely child-like expressions. 16 eps. Great story n acting. One of my favs.
July 6th, 2011 at 1:10 pm
Tae In is the cutest high school student boy in the world!
Between the wishy-washy art teacher and the determined and 100% devoted Tae In, I’d choose Tae In too! Not to mention that he is both cute and sexy! 🙂
July 6th, 2011 at 6:07 pm
At first, it seems like the art teacher is quite attractive. He is gentle, kind and good looking. He is more suitable for her age, has a stable job and income. However, we see soon that he is a rather “useless” man. In ep 8, it is Tae In’s former girlfriend who gets restless and worried, who urges him to take action before something serious happens between Tae In and Biscuit Teacher. You’d think that a grown man would know that, without being tole by an 18 year old.
And then when he decides to take action, what does he do? He takes her home to dinner without even preparing his snobbish family for it! She is bound to be insulted cos of her backgd! Even Tae In knows that at 19! That’s why he rushes in to rescue her! Who is the more trustworthy of the 2 men? Tae In, for sure!
July 6th, 2011 at 6:11 pm
Biscuit Teacher, Candy Star
That’s the Korean name of this series. I love its Korean title cos it has so much character and is so interesting. UNlike its English title, Hello My Teacher, which is so bland. Hello Miss. Hello Girl. Hello This. Hello That. The Students nickname her Biscuit Teacher cos she is sweet and so unlike a regular teacher. She calls him Candy Star, cos she once told him a story abt a boy looking at the stars, and cos he is sweet like candy, of course. That title says so much abt their relationship.
July 8th, 2011 at 11:58 pm
I did not come to watch this as a fan of Gong Yoo. I had seen him in Coffee Prince. I liked him fine in CP, but did not fall in love. But he is really fantastic in this show. He is at turns funny, cute, dreamy, sweet, silly, romantic, downright irresistible, and sexy too. Gong Hyo Jin is lovely as always.
This is a high school drama abt young love that for once lasts for a lifetime. He doesn’t have a mother, so falls in love with a teacher who is 6 years older. He is sooo caring and expressive of his feelings towards her that she falls in love with him without being aware of it. Their courtship is a heartwarming story. How he needs her and only her, how she comes to appreciate it and reciprocate those feelings.
I began to watch this again after Greatest Love ended its run, and fall in love with it again.

Luv u teacher…. :))

hi kaddict you write the coolest comments on this drama any idea where i can get am from outside asia
August 17th, 2012 at 8:27 pm
I became a fan of Gong Yoo after watching “Big”. He really has great acting skills. I’m now catching up on his previous projects. Just finished Coffee Prince and just finished Ep 1 of “Hello, My Teacher” and it sure looks promising 🙂
Having caught GY’s shows retrospectively, it can really be seen that his acting skills has matured over time.
Hope GY will have new project coming up soon.
