Oh my God, I don't even know what to think or say. But let's forget for a moment about all the cons, and let's focus on the biggest advantage of this drama which is the plot. Because damn, it seriously had some great potential. I like the idea of a school for witches who want to protect all the bullied girls (Why only girls but not also boys though? Gender equality my butt). The plot twist isn't really that unexpected considering that from the very beginning the atmosphere in the White Witch School is kind of fishy and odd. However, I really enjoyed that twist, but to be honest I've always liked such plot twists so I may be a little bit biased here. Unfortunately, everything gets ruined by the very poor acting, many pervert shots (for example from under a skirt, zooming in on boobs etc.), annoying characters, and the horribly poor production. Also, everything happens definitely too fast, but I assume this drama was meant to be some kind of an experiment. At times it seems that this drama wants to tell us something, something deep even, but it's not really sure how to do it. Oh, and it's really too easy to guess who the mysterious White Witch is. Overall, in my opinion this is a short experimental drama which lost its potential because of the inefficient and poor production. And it's such a waste because the plot line is pretty interesting.
