An enjoyable drama with some questions?

There is not much to add to the discussion on this drama that hasn’t been said. Korean BL dramas are finally getting bolder although they will never compare to their Thai counterparts. This one as a story about first love and high school did a good job of showing awkwardness and blooming romance. The juxtaposition of Shin Woo’s confidence in his identity as a young gay man compared to Shin Da On who hides himself was really interesting. It cost Shin Da On the love of Woo Tae Kyung and his own happiness. It is the central theme of this drama that to be brave, and to be yourself is important. Woo Tae Kyung, the protagonist just is. He doesn’t question it. He likes who he likes, and is crushed by his trust.

Though I am lost on a few things…. What is with the teacher? Whose shoes are those? When he says the name at the end what does it mean? Also Shin Da On’s parents are clearly wealthy, they sit on the board of the school but you never see them. Does he just live alone? It seems interesting.
