I just finished watching this and really enjoyed it.
Let me talk about my hangups first. The fact that the main character ABSOLUTELY DID NOT pass for a 19 year old was the most irritating thing to watch. Plus everybody trying to make her seem as if she was a teenager was disappointing. Yeah, she was short but did the make up artist not know how to make her look younger? She looked the same in both flashbacks and present day!
The bad guy Kim Tae Hoon who played as a teacher...I saw him in Hidden Identity and thought he was a waste in that drama and it seems like it was the same in this one. Maybe it's because he already have that shady McSheister look that I didn't like He is one of the few Korean actors I don't like and would avoid any drama if they're in any.
The dimwitted home room teacher. By golly when they made it seem like he got fired from 7 teaching jobs I believed it. But as the episodes progressed, he became a loveable dimwitted teacher.
Now this series focused on bullying and how difficult it is to do something about it. What wouldn't a mother do to protect her child? They portrayed the scenarios really well. But they had to throw in some political corruption to make the whole 16 episodes work.
I watched this because of a video of bad a** female leads who could fight and Kim Hee Sun was one of the females on the list and after seeing a preview of her fighting a bully I had to watch. I was a little disappointed because she came out blazing in the first few episodes but fizzed in the end. I don't know why she was portrayed as a gangster. That scenario died real quick.
I liked the two subordinates. They were hilarious. There were characters in here that you hated and then there were characters in this that you hate to love.
As always I like to comment on the last episodes of all the Korean dramas I watch. The last episode was doing fine in the justice department but it became long winded close to the end. Korean justice must've taken notes from the US justice system. People who do horrible things rarely get punished the right way. Plus there were several things that were left unfinished. I should be use to that by now but it always irritate me when this happens. I have a OCD issue when it comes to subjects not being finished.
