The drama tells realistically of the many various troubles that high school students can face. Ra Eun Ho is just one of them, struggling to survive in a school that discriminates against rich and poor, and believes that the best students are the ones with the best grades. Eun Ho is a cheerful, upbeat 18-year-old girl whose dream is to be a webtoon artist. When she mistakenly gets caught up in another student's effort to send the school into turmoil, Ra Eun Ho is framed as the legendary Student X, a mysterious troublemaker whose identity is unknown, and suddenly, all of her aspirations are put at risk. Joining her is Hyun Tae Woon, the son of the school's director with a difficult personality and troubled past. In a motorbike accident, he lost his best friend and from there, his life changed. He is uptight, aloof and rude, but as he gets to know the polar opposite Ra Eun Ho, his view on the world changes. He falls in love with her, and together with their fellow students, they decide to stand up against their corrupt school system and make a change. (Source: AJ at MyDramaList) Edit Translation

I'm going to be that one person who wasn't hyped about this drama... just kidding?

I loved the first couple episodes. They were exciting and unpredictable (most of the time). But after the eighth ep, it slowed down a lot, so I got bored. Why did I stick with it till the end? I was already halfway through, so I stayed for the romance (haha, this isn't the first time something like this has happened) ;-)

Try this drama if you love light school dramas with a bit of mystery. I was really impressed by the acting of the cast, especially rookie actors Kim Se Jung and Kim Jung Hyun. Their chemistry is over the roof. I found myself skipping through episodes just to get to their scenes. The side storylines were incorporated well. Like sunah said, School 2013 has the best bromance, School 2015 has the best second lead syndrome (rip), and School 2017 has the best male lead. I personally enjoyed School 2015 the most out of all the School series (except for that last episode), but go ahead and give School 2017 a try. It might be your type of drama. :-) It was a fun kdrama, even if it lost steam in the second half.

The final verdict: watch if you enjoy predictable fluffy dramas

Brilliant drama, absolutely a gold medal winning series of 2017! It captured my heart right from the beginning and held the strong feelings inside right until the very last episode!

It's one of those dramas that is filled with emotion. Showing the real and quite awful education system in South Korea, the realness factor was why I became interested in watching. Of course, I have to mention the other "School" series but unfortunately, I can't compare any them to this drama, since this is my first "School" series that I've watched. Nevertheless, the actors really put on a great show! As far as I know, the majority of them are amateurs in acting, I just have to give them cool points. Furthermore, the characters were relatable, totally "best friend" and "best couple" goals! After each and every episode, I had to tell my friends what kind of a great drama this is. Not only does it make you feel kinda cool, brave and happy after watching it, but also concerned and shocked about some of the school related things. To add, the music made a hugely positive impact. The OST is very fitting and there are a couple songs that piqued my interest.

A wonderful drama for back to school or to reminisce the good old high school days. This drama will take you on a diverse emotion trip and leave you feeling chilled! Definitely re-watching it after I complete the other "School" series!
