Boy, this drama was sooooo good I can't believe it…I feel it's the best one I've seen since Seven days, I really was not looking forward to the end as I'm going to feel empty and wonder where I find another one as good??? So far Master of Study, School 2017 (very different, though, and not as gripping). I thought once the issue between the main protagonists was resolved, the main story would be pretty much over and all the writers can do is think up various school issues to dramatise. But actually they have explored the boundaries also on really important social issues, covering many issues that must be faced by kids and teachers in schools in underprivileged urban areas. It's here where the main teacher actors also did an outstanding job, although one of them Jung In Jae is so almost saintly as to rather stretch credibility when you go outside the drama and think of what's more likely to happen in the real world. If only I had had any teacher like that I'd be in seventh heaven. I mean, keeping phone contact???……is that normal in Korea? Can we please, please have it in the West, as long as it's someone like her?…….But the Daniel Choi character and the other main teachers (perhaps especially the "baddie" ones) - do bring a dose of reality to what challenges teachers in similar situations face - ditto the parent characters stand for a credible portrait of what some parents are really like in the real world. The only fault I can find in this drama - where it really is drama, not a full portrait of reality - is the constant allowances for misfit kids - though that was corrected somewhat at the end where reality took a savage bite. In the real world, kids who don't fit in are written off, which is why we have crime, broken homes etc etc Maybe these kind of dramas can alert more people to the problem. The end feeling is that everyone went through some kind of evolution in this drama - kids and teachers. I feel this is the only drama other than Seven Days (which is out and out gay and therefore pushes the boundaries more) and maybe Nobuta wo Produce, which I could give a 10 to for rewatch value.

I totally love the show.. i mostly go for romantic plots but this is one show that has held me despite the lack of it.. the cast is fresh and the story is moving!
the story focuses on friendship and teacher student relationship! it basically brings back memories of school.. both good and bad.. and explains both the teacher and the student's viewpoint on school life. Daniel Choi and Jung Nara have done a brilliant job but the people who make the show incredible are the students. the acting is so realistic. Nam Soon and Heung soo's friendship moves you to tears, Oh Jung ho and his trio.. though were shown as bullies.. make us pity them at the same time. and the rest of the kids highlight the basic problems and issues that students face!!

A drama about friendship which you would not want to miss. If you are a fan of lee jong suk or kim woo bin, you have to watch this. I would say they chose the right drama for their debut as leads. The drama revolves around high school life and the school system in korea. Also the deep meaning of friendship is being put across in this drama very well.

When I read that a new drama is going to on air with name "School 2013", I was really impressed.So, I waited for this drama & now after watching 3 episodes I'm going to stick to the end.I really really liked this drama.I also started this drama because of Lee Jong Suk.I'm a fan.But now I watched it, its really good.
I loved the story.It actually depict what is happening in some places.It shows that there is creepy sort of competition for grades & marks & some people are going crazy for it.For some people it shows that school is a racing alley.I loved the ending ost.I liked the acting too.The tempo of the drama is also great.For sure, you won't be bored.Till now I didn't dislike anything.

P.S:I really like teacher Jung In Jae.

I liked School 2013 as Lee Jong Suk and Kim Woo Bin were acted in this drama. Both their acting made me complete the show. Although I was not expecting the story line to be realistic and bromance, the show has ended it well. Hopefully they will have sequel too as the story ended in present only. No harm spending time to watch this drama even though is a little lengthy.

Esse foi um daqueles dramas que resolvi assisti por causa do elenco. Não tenho problemas em admitir que no início da minha vida de dorameira sai por ai procurando todos os dramas dos meus atores favoritos para assistir, e já que o Lee Jung Suk é um desses oppas que conquistaram meu coração logo de cara, tive que assistir School 2013, embora nunca tenha me interessado pelos School que vieram depois...

Nem todas essas minhas aventuras de stalkeamento foram bem sucedidas e acabei assistindo dramas que particularmente não gostei de alguns oppas que gosto muito.

Enfim, isso tudo é para dizer que depois de ter certas decepções prefiro não assistir mais dramas baseados apenas no meu amor pelo ator. Afinal não é sempre que eles acertam na escolha do drama para atuar e outras vezes tenho a certeza de que certos atores não deveriam fazer alguns gêneros de doramas específico por não terem o perfil certo para o papel kkkk.

Mas voltando ao assunto, School 2013 demorou um bom tempo para deslanchar em termos de ritmo, principalmente porque o personagem Park Heung Soo interpretado pelo ator do Kim Woo Bin demora vários episódios para aparecer, mas quando ele finalmente aparece a história fica muito mais interessante!

Simplesmente amei o foco que deram nesse drama para os professores, é realmente raro ver um drama escolar que foca nesses que são profissionais muito importantes em nossa vida escolar não é mesmo? E a personagem Jung In Jae interpretada pela atriz Jang Na Ra foi tão maravilhosa que dava gosto de ver. Sem dúvidas ela conseguiu me transmitir a sensação que tinha amor por sua profissão, mesmo enfrentando diversas dificuldades com os milhares de alunos problemáticos de sua sala.

Esse é um Kdrama que focou bastante nos estudantes problemáticos e na história de amizade entre os protagonistas. Portanto, esteja ciente que o bullying aparece com frequência aqui e que não há sequer uma sombra de romance nesse Kdrama.

Una amistad de verdad

Empece a ver esta serie por seguirle la pista a Lee Jong Suk, y realmente me encanto, aqui no hay nada, absolutamente nada de romance, eso me pareció genial. Historia de adolescentes, muy bien armada, lo más importante de la serie es la amistad, mostrada de diferentes maneras, y si no entiendes al final que la amistad es lo mas importante es porque no entendiste nada. Me reí, lloré, me emocioné, viví con esos chicos todas sus angustias. Reconozco que algunas cosas las veía como exageradas, aunque se que en el fondo la vida real puede ser mas cruel. Entiendo al director de querer mostrarlo de esta manera. Al principio empece a verlo sin ganas, pero ya al 5 capitulo no podía parar, muy linda historia. La relación de esos dos es genial, la química entre ellos es mágica, se nota que son amigos en la vida real. Ahora también soy fan de Kim Woo Bin. Realmente la recomiendo.

Razones para ver School 2013

1) La forma en la que está tratada la docencia.
No es para nada raro ver doramas que transcurren en escuelas que tienen una administración corrupta, por lo que no puedo decir que ese detalle sea original, PERO acá siento que ese tema está tratado de manera bastante realista y para nada exagerada (además, los profesores son todo lo que está bien y es imposible no empatizar con ellos). Les puedo asegurar que se van a terminar metiendo por completo en todos los dramas escolares de estas personas.

2) Los personajes secundarios importan de verdad y están bien construidos.
Acá no me refiero a los estudiantes de relleno, sino a los personajes secundarios de verdad: los "malos" de la escuela, los mejores alumnos, los chicos que tienen relación con los protagonistas, etc. Todos ellos se sienten reales y tienen cierta profundidad, lo que yo siempre agradezco bastante (de hecho se terminan creando algunas subtramas con ellos que por momentos opacan a la principal).

3) EL BROMANCE.
Si vieron School 2013, a estas alturas seguro que ya se estaban empezando a preguntar por este punto Y ES QUE EL BROMANCE ES LITERALMENTE ¡EL! BROMANCE.
Los dos protagonistas se aman, no me cabe la menor duda. Cada momento de ellos juntos vale oro, así de simple.
Literal van a morir queriendo saber qué pasó con ellos en el pasado ?

4) No hay romance... ¿O sí?
Este punto va ligado al anterior, ya que la pareja principal de la serie es la de ellos dos (exceptuando lo que sea que pase con los profes, obvio), por lo que no hay distracciones en el medio y podemos dedicarnos a amarlos y ya (como extra puedo agregar que es imposible no terminar shippeando también a dos de las chicas).

5)Tiene momentos divertidos, momentos emotivos, mucho drama, peleas, injusticias, etc. Básicamente lo tiene todo para enganchar y no aburrir nunca.

Como razón "yapa" les puedo decir que todo lo que pasa está muy bien justificado y eso es GENIAL.

?Holi, ¿Cómo están?? Hoy vengo con una reseña que me tiene muy emocionada. Por fin puedo hablarles del mejor BL coreano de todos los tiempos: School 2013. Nah, mentira, no es un BL, pero sí es uno de los mejores dramas escolares de toda la historia de los dramas escolares.

?Los estudiantes de la clase 2 de la secundaria Seungri forman un grupo muy problemático, tan problemático que sus profesores, Jung In Jae y Kang Se Chan, terminan involucrándose en sus vidas para ayudarlos a superar las dificultades que afrontan.

?¿Voy a empezar con lo mejor de la serie? Voy a empezar con lo mejor de la serie: El bromance. La relación de amistad de Go Nam Soon y Park Heung Soo es lo más BL que vi en mucho tiempo. Fuera de joda, tienen un vínculo y unos diálogos tan fuertes que es imposible no pensar todo el tiempo: "estos dos se aman".
Sacando mi lado fangirl, el desarrollo de su relación está muy bien hecho. Vemos todo el proceso desde que se vuelven a encontrar (en el pasado eran amigos, pero ahora las cosas están "complicadas") hasta que logran hablar como se debe. Ver cómo van limpiando sus asperezas es tan lindo que se roban toda la serie.

?La trama central gira en torno a las dificultades de los maestros para lidiar con los problemas que atraviesan los estudiante y cómo esto los afecta a ellos. El crecimiento de ambos maestros a lo largo de la serie está muy bien logrado, en especial el de Se Chan, que al principio te hace querer golpearlo cada dos por tres, pero por suerte a lo largo de los capítulos uno llega a entender porqué es así al principio... o no (?

?Todas las historias secundarias están muy bien manejadas. Las situaciones que pasan los estudiantes están tan bien planteadas que es imposible no empatizar con ellos. Yo solo quería que todos recibieran un abrazo.

?Como si todo esto fuera poco, la serie intenta mostrar todo lo que está mal en el sistema educativo de Corea, cosa que es muy interesante de ver.

✨Si con todo esto no los convencí, no son dignos de esta maravilla(?) Fuera de joda, este Kdrama cuenta con un buen desarrollo, el mejor bromance del mundo y unos personajes muy queribles.
