Corey

Canada! That's right! It's also big enough to have the long distance between his school and where she is

I'm with you. I don't think he was plotting, but he knew he was smarter and more suited. Go is such an important part of the show and he's a master.... he's moves ahead.

The excitement when I saw Paper Towns…

In episode 1, it was said that he's basically playing a role and pretending to be something he's not. Maybe, this is his true personality?

They joined today and are only watching one drama. They're probably fake. You should block or report.

Wait.... so...her dad is gone-gone? Nooooooooooooooooooo
I liked him / it

I love the SML already. She has a friend, he'll ditch his current friends and become friends with the guy who seems to not like him but is really on his side. Will all four work together?.... CAN he even work this year?
I'm gonna love these leads together.
Now, I just need him to star with Krystal Jung and her with Kim Woo Bin.

Checked with the anaesthesiologist before he started, told the police the anaesthesiologist was present, drug found in rubbish, female lead is an anaesthesiologist......I'm sure none of this will be important later.

From the promo, I thought it would be a full drop on Netflix...... Considering the cast, I was being delusional.

I love how they keep saying Dynamite skipped grade 12 as if it were an insult. Every time it's brought up, it's as an insult. If they reveal he's secretly a shaman at the end, I wouldn't be surprised. Dude is always right.

Umm.....Corey can still read these.
Corey is also queer (never seen the inside of a closet) and lives in the east. Corey has never set foot on any American continents nor been educated by any Americans. Your assumptions are colouring your perceptions. However, y'all do you.
From the beginning and reiterated in EVERY response, I've said the issue is with the teacher. If they were straight, I'd think the same. If he had a different job, I wouldn't. Do I dislike this show, no.
You both tend to go on irrelevant rants.

Huh? You asked 2 questions I assumed were rhetorical, but still mentioned by stating my view on adulthood: Not about age, but responsibility.
Of course, he shouldn't pursue the minor after 5p.m. He shouldn't pursue the minor at all.
It was interesting speaking with you until you decided to refer to me as a "bullshitter" for not sharing your views. Also, why would you presume to know more about my views than I do.

The age of majority in my country is 18. I....still don't see why the age of majority is relevant.

The adult is the one who is there to protect, mentor and teach the students. His age is not relevant, his role is. I have no reason to assume one way or another about how impressionable the teacher is. From 8:00 to 4:50, he should mask all of that and perform the role he's paid to perform (healthily, of course).
I call Toki impressionable because of his reactions to everyone who is not unkind to him and his quick attachment and loyalty to those people.
It's amusing that you believe my world to be so binary. My view on one thing does not reveal my views on another.

You're welcome to disagree.
While you felt that way as a teen, remember there are those who aged and realised how incredibly young and immature they were as teens. Yeah, sure, WE can tell Sahara is mostly harmless; but those words and actions from others aren't so harmless.
He's a minor with a crush, but the adult should know better.

The first bit of that was irrelevant. No-one brought it up here. Secondly, as a second year, Toki IS 17, yes...but, why does his age matter? Age of majority and consent aren't the issue. Like, the first poster said: the teacher having feelings for his student is the issue.
He's a P.E. teacher subbing for the homeroom teacher. You can tell he's a P.E. teacher without being told because of how he's dressed at school. He would've graduated uni, yes. He couldn't teach otherwise.
Even if he were a genius who who skipped most of high school, got his degree in a year and passed the teaching exam his first try (doesn't always happen) making him younger than Toki, it'd still be an issue because he's Toki's TEACHER.

When asked to define what I mean, yes. I believe directing someone to a dictionary is best, as that way they are aware of what I mean. To do that, I go to a dictionary to make sure I did not use the word/term incorrectly and my intent can be made clear. *smile*

Yes. I WOULD like the teacher to ignore his feeling when infront of his student. He can admit it to himself or his friends, sure.... but not his impressionable student who has such a loud crush on him.

"Wait for me" was my biggest issue with that episode.

At no point in any of my comments or responses did I indicate I wanted to stop watching this show. I find Toki to be adorable. Furthermore, I'm an adult who consumes mainly romantic fiction, I don't have to agree with or like something to find it entertaining.

It's...troubling that the age of consent is being discussed here. Why is the age of consent up for discussion?
Fine, I'll join. All of that information is unnecessary because the drama is set in high school. First years are 15-16, so paedophilia is irrelevant. Ephebophilia, however......

This drama isn't sexualised (so far, at least), so (for me), the issue is with Sahara-SENSEI 'confessing' to Toki, laying his head on Toki's lap in such a moment, allowing himself to be embraced by Toki and encouraging Toki's crush. This drama is set in a country where teachers DO (way too often) end up marrying/dating their former students and scandals of teachers sleeping with multiple students (who usually don't tell anyone) are on the news and in gossip.
Here, we have a teacher telling his homeroom student that he's into him and to keep it a secret. Then, we see Toki ACTUALLY going out of his way to keep himself from revealing it to his friends.
So, yes. The relationship isn't paedophilic. Still, it is VERY wrong.

*facepalm* As a second year student, Toki is 17. Sahara would have STARTED university at 19 and to be a teacher, he needs 4 years. He's not a student teacher (which would be in his 4th year of university) because he'd be shadowing the main teacher and would be in a black suit the whole time. Also, he'd be wearing a black suit for his first year (like the new teacher), so we know he's not a first year teacher (even if he teaches P.E.).
They've even shown flashbacks of a primary school student and Sahara in high school at the river.
Whether they're 2 years apart or 20 years apart, it doesn't matter, does it? ....So long as Toki is out of school and not under Sahara's care.
High school isn't mandatory. If Toki drops out, then all's good. If Sahara transfers, then.....all won't be AS good for another year and some months, but it wouldn't be AS bad.
