1. Moorim School
Korean Drama - 2016, 16 episodes
"Moorim School" was way better than I thought it would be; however, the last 2 episodes were a bit of a let-down. I read that the drama was supposed to have 20 eps but due to low viewership and ratings it got reduced to 16. I don't understand why it wasn't popular as I would have easily rated the drama an 8/10. The only reason why it is 7.5/10 are the weak last 2 eps. The characters are nice; though some didn't get quite the development due to the cutting of episodes. Nonetheless, I would recommend this drama to anyone who likes martial arts and wouldn't mind some fantasy sprinkled into it. It's not heavy on fantasy and the supernatural and very well-done. The setting with the school (not to be confused with high school, they are all adults in the drama) matches very well. Despite some weaknesses, the drama is quite enjoyable to watch. Also, while I was a bit disappointed with the last 2 eps, it wasn't complete shite. It is still enjoyable enough. Though, I wish they would have released all 20 eps.
Watched: December 2024.
