One of the unique and underrated drama of this year……Each character are working hard as we can see..This drama was perfect in 20 episode though…As they cut the episode i think ending is going to be rushed one…

One disappointing drama for 2016. The story is a mess, make no sense at all.
March 9th, 2016 at 12:35 pm
At First, when i look at the title and read the synopsis, my heart flustered. its unique and totally different from others drama. we can see multiracial people and they adapt with each other very well despite their background and personality.
but as i watch it, the plot is totally messed up. its kind of dissapointed. but still i love to watch it, because its different from other drama. perhaps this story is not strong enough, but please dont stop make story like these. you just have to upgrade or touch up a little more to create another great story.
dear writer, script writer or anyone whose trying really hard to make up this story, thank you for making a story like this.
this is maybe just a beginning to create another cool drama.

This Korean drama is so cool. I can’t even sleep just because I’m thinking of this drama. It’s so unbelievable. I hope I can also go to a school like that. It’s so amazing. It was like my mind gonna explode.
