I think Sung Joon got turned on by the smell of her hair. Her hair was literally all over his face in the hug scene. =D

Wait she ran her hand over his chest too. ;)

Wait wait wait. First when she fell on him, the notebook poked his hand, so he got annoyed. That's what turned him on first. Lol.

And the stupid notebook magically disappeared. Even the notebook didn't want to ruin their moment.

I'm not complaining though. I want more action. :P

PS: I was editing this as I watched and rewatched and rewatched and rewatched the kiss. Lol.

I was falling for HJ-YD until Yeollie reminded me just how amazing he is in Episode 8. I'm on board both ships, i'm just glad I'll be happy either way coz i don't always get my pair. :P

Episode 8 belonged to Yeollie. What a come back! He has Princi and Minion dancing to his tunes. Now he's going to make them suffer until he graduates, and there'll probably be someone to take over once he's gone. My bet is Tae Pyung, he's a year younger to Yeol-Yeon Doo-Hyo Shik right? Lol can't even imagine.

Saw my baby Yeon Doo hurt, scared and broken today. Killed me from inside. :/
Yeollie and Ha Joonie look after her, treat her like a princess and make her all jolly and cute again. :P
Kwon Soo Ah should be admitted into a mental asylum and given electric shocks to fix her screwed mind.

Instructor Nam. <3

Loving this one! Finally a Chinese drama that I don't have any complaints about. Hope it stays this way.

Hye Jin told him she came on the first day, but he walked upto another girl to ask her if she's Hye Jin. She told him it wasn't his fault that he thought Hye Jin would still be pretty and stylish, but it broke her confidence to meet him. So she sent Ha Ri to meet him only once. He knew whatever happened after that wasn't Hye Jin's fault, because Ha Ri had told him she kept meeting him without Hye Jin knowing.
Just like Hye Jin didn't think the worst of Ha Ri when she found out Ha Ri had been meeting Sung Joon behind her back, Sung Joon didn't think the worst of Hye Jin.

It is highly exaggerated. Give them some discretion because at the end of the day they have a story to tell and they'll tweak things to suit their story line.

He is amazing. <3
But I love Seo Ha Joon, or is it just my Ji Soo bias speaking? Ahaha. But there are so many characters from this that'll go down as my favourite characters: Kang Yeon Doo, Teacher Yang Tae Beom, Instructor Nam, Kim Yeol and my man Seo Ha Joon.

It's the first time he's let a girl get that close to him, to share his troubles about Yeol and let in on his secrets. Let him have a crush, let him fall for her. He may have had girlfriends before, but he's never truly had a girl friend, as in a friend who is a girl. Let him feel what it's like to be given, not taken from. To be stood up for and protected, to be in on his secrets and his missions to fix those wronged around him. The boy's never been quite as happy as he is now. He laughs, he blushes, he gets shy, he stutters, he gets embarrassed, he pauses to think about what he really wants, and he does what his heart tells him to.

Don't get me wrong. I ship Yeol x Yeon Doo too, but Ha Joon needs her right now. At least as much that he can share his past and all his concerns with her, she'll be that second bestie in his life who he can count on that will pick him up if he falls down. This would let him trust women and have better relationships in the future. After all of this, who knows he may get himself a pretty, cute, understanding girlfriend that supports him as much as Kang Yeon Doo did. Yeon Doo is a part of his healing process, and I can see the changes she's brought in him already. From being the boy that only complains about everything and uses violence, to one that now does things within his limits to bring positive changes in his life.

Kwon Soo Ah can never ever redeem herself. For anyone who has any hope for her left, please watch episode 7.

She is ridiculous. A mental asylum is the correct place to keep her.

It's a big slap on the face for all of us that thought Kwon Soo Ah feels guilty for her actions after she commits them. Biggest lol moment when she gets Kim Yeol kicked out while she revels in happiness and gets gifts from her mother.

It's a cute song right? I like the rap bit.

Am I the only one that can't really imagine Sung Joon-Hye Jin or Shin Hyeok-Hye Jin kissing/pecking or being lovey dovey? I mean I love their chemistry and all but I find them friend-zoned coz of how mad and hilarious they are. Ah maybe i'll change my mind when I see it happen.
Btw I watched ep 11 again, and didn't find it so bad. The first half was actually pretty good, second half sucked and the last scene rocked.

It is kind of silly for the creatives to put cheerleading on a pedestal when the student speaks many languages, plays a musical instrument, and has done lots more extra-curricular activities to help her application. To imply that captaincy of a winning cheerleading team will get her further than other specs is a bit silly on part of the makers.
About the school system, you're probably right. I hadn't thought of it in a Korean context, but even then I don't think regular Korean high schools have parents strutting inside at their leasure. That's why i said the makers really exaggerate everything in the drama, and that is okay with me because at the end of the day they do have a story to tell.

Ah think there is. Her best friend-ish character. Don't think she likes him though, he might.

Ha Joon is made to feel defenseless when his father abuses him while Kwon Soo Ah is empowered by her mother. There is a mile of difference between the two, plus Soo Ah doesn't have a best friend/sibling the way Yeol is to Ha Joon. The one she did have, committed suicide and left her all alone.

He hated that Yeol was blackmailed for him. Ha Joon has anger management issues.
I see why he got so angry at the Princi. When he started throwing his stuff in the club room, and the other guy called him a rude bastard he exploded. Most guys would get offended and start a fight when called a rude bastard, lol.

The show is pretty tightly edited which is great for a 12 episode drama. If they keep it up, this could go down as one of my favourite dramas. There is just so many things likeable about it. Kim Yeol and Ha Joon's bromance, Teacher Yang and Yeon Doo's mentor-student relationship, Instructor Nam and her eagerness to teach students about loyalty, friendship and cheer-leading and Teacher Yang's strive to make the school a better place, just to name a few.
Although, I can't seem to ignore the obvious plot-holes like cheer-leading as a way to get into an ivy league school, and the amount of influence parents have on the principal and education board. My parents are both teachers, and I've never actually heard of them interact with parents outside of parent-teacher interviews and committee meetings which are held twice a year. Parents don't just come running into school at every little thing that happens, that could be considered trespassing or disturbance to school environment. Also a school will just about never give importance to one parent over another, no matter how rich or powerful they are. I understand that this is a drama, and that's where I'd leave it. If you want to enjoy this drama, you're going to have to go easy on the writing.

Hadn't thought of it that way!

Oh dear this episode was a joke.
A show built entirely on the relationship between female leads and the amazing second lead and suddenly makes a turn for the worst. Bury me 10 feet under.
Not that I didn't see this coming, but it was unintentionally funny.
