After that scene in the bar/restaurant when she talked to him in such a rude way, its very hard to like her. I…
I didn’t find her rude at all. She was straight to the point imo. I’ve had tutors before and they’re really just like teachers. If one of them saw me making a decision they think is rash then they’ll try to stop me as an older more experienced person, of course because I’m someone they care about. I think a student teacher relationship goes beyond an acquaintance no matter how long ago I last saw them. Of course, if he fails it’s his own responsibility but if you think you have a chance to dissuade someone from a decision you think is the wrong one then you’ll give advice on this and try to be as persuasive as you can. Being a hagwon teacher is no walk in the park but it’s also looked down on. Like his parents said, in their society, a hagwon teaching job and a corporate job at a big corporation are on two different classes entirely so I wouldn’t say it was not her business at all. He was saying he’ll come and live her life- a life that she thinks can be avoided.
The feelings of the characters really come through so I can feel everything right with them; anger, surprise, embarrassment, excitement. Promoting them as student and teacher has to be the worst idea😠At the restaurant, she wanted to scare him a bit and I think it worked so he’ll put his best foot forward. But I’m missing some context. When the director asked her why she was acting like a teacher to Jin Ho, what did he mean? Aha I almost forgot to mention the table slamming scene …what on earth
That was really interesting to me! I never thought about what public teachers think about the ones teaching at…
I feel like he understood the mistake he made but his pride is too big to let it go. Korea has a strong hierarchy and respect system and teachers in regular schools and teachers in hagwon's don't see eye to eye. They look down on each other. So to him, it's like: how dare she, a simple parasite of the educational system, have the audacity to come and challenge him (a "real" teacher) like that, to his face- and in front of all these people? But he's very silly. She asked him if it was really okay to sit there when she first came in and he said why not, and now he's mad. So annoying. But she really needs to watch her back because.. that guy.. he looks like he can killðŸ˜
I did not find the first half boring at all! I guess it may seem that way if you are unfamiliar with Korea's cutthroat education system. It is war. That was to set us up for whatever fight she will have with that really scary teacher and it will be messy. I am already afraid. This pacing is really the director's style. It isn't fast-paced crazy-crazy-crazy. It's like smaller impactful moments. The chemistry is already chemistrying and there's some tension in the air. I think the lead's characters are going to be very annoying a lot of times but they've set it up so it makes sense that both of them are slightly crazy. Although she was his teacher she has like zero control over him lol. She's already losing the battle in front of my eyes. Like what was that last line he said? damn. But she's a really successful person. I think this relationship will nearly if not totally ruin her career or at least give her nightmares. If the student's moms find out... I don't even want to imagine.. I'm scared to see such a successful person dragged through the mud tbh. It's filmed beautifully too. But I don't know how I can wait for each episode...the pain of waiting...
Reading the comments has made me decide not to watch anymore until it ends. I haven't watched Ep 10 because of…
I don’t agree with women empowerment because the red sleeve and the Queen’s umbrella are proof that it can be done well and nothing wrong with women’s empowermentðŸ˜but every other thing- I wholeheartedly agree
I love how the king rushed out of his chamber, leaving court lady Dong there. What I love more about episode 8…
I’m actually quite worried about the next two episodes. I think episode 10 will leave us hanging big time ðŸ˜because the real war is about to begin.
Yeah The Red Sleeve is amazing too! The male lead there had a shorter temper than this one and the female lead was more feisty and dating so it was like an explosion. Loved that show. This one is also good and I didn’t expect that at all.
