The one thing I can't stand is bullies. However, the one thing that I absolutely love is bullies getting owned. This series reflected a lot of that. I will say I know the actress who played the teacher was in Bad And Crazy and I liked her character because she was strong in that but was kind of dismayed because she was weaker in this drama. I guess I'm spoiled. Whenever I see a Korean actor who can fight I expect to see them doing so in every drama they play in. Shame on me for being like this but I can't help it. I'm all for the male heroes in these dramas but when I see a female who can stand on her own it gives me some glimmer of hope that females portrayed in dramas aren't so weak after all. So yeah I whooped and clapped for the one lonely female student who held her own.

This drama stayed true to it's roots. The MML wanted to study and he stopped at nothing to do so. I felt so bad about his studying skills though.

What I can't get over is how my portrayal of Korean schools are. Are they all portrayed as being schools for bullies?? I will say some of the actors looked a little too old to be in high school. You could see the age on these actors faces close up.

I truly liked this drama until the last episode. Most of the scenes I watched gave me goosebumps. I even yelped and applauded out loud in one particular scene because I wasn't expecting what I was expecting.

Now why did I not like the last episode? Because some scenes were drawn out longer than they should and it was wrapped up rather quickly. I guess I wanted to see more justice done and wasn't satisfied hence the 9 score. I'm a bit leery about giving things a perfect 10. I don't do that unless I truly truly enjoyed a drama that gives me closure at the end. A lot of Kdramas don't do that.

In my opinion, this drama was way better than Weak Hero Class and yes, I did love that drama as well but this one was better.
