After watching episode 8, anyone else getting frustrated at the fact that people around Eun Bi just won't let her be herself? Her mum and Yi Ahn just seem to want her to be someone she's not and it's really frustrating at times! Even though Eun Bi consented to act as Eun Byul, it's clear that she's struggling and she only has Tae Gwang to confide in *sigh*
I just feel bad for Eun Bi, it'll be nice if she had a better support system so I was willing for her tell Yi Ahn everything and hoped that he'd understand *sigh*

Eun Bi HWAITING~!

I'm glad you mentioned Misaeng because that's exactly what I thought of when I was watching the first episode! Definitely has that realism-in-the-work-place vibe with hints of comedy to keep the audience entertained ^^ shouldn't judge by the first episode for sure.

Judging by comments on the pilot, I have a feeling that this drama is going to be either a hit or a miss - But I want to give it a good chance since it's only 12 episodes... I want to see what attracted these big name actors to this show :)

Does anyone else just facepalm every time someone manages to casually break/walk into someone else's property? There is just a complete disregard for the function of doors and basic security in this drama which is hilariously ridiculous >__<"

I agree, though I haven't actually seen the other School series, but from what I hear, this version is borderline unrealistic compared to its predecessors.
This is still a great series, but it probably would've made more sense to have it as an independent 'Who Are You' rather than part of the 'School' franchise.

In the preview, the urn actually reads 'Lee Eun Bi' so it seems like Eun Bi's orphanage and school etc thinks that she's dead and set up a memorial for her - which is really sad because she's actually alive :(

I know that i am supposed to suspend disbelief when watching dramas and stuff... but after watching episode 9, isn't it slightly ridiculous that they clearly have Choi Eun Seol's high school photo and yet they put a question mark over it during their presentation? Come on, all the detectives have met Cho Rim, with just that picture, they can put two and two together soooo easily! It's like the writers are dragging out the mystery of her identity longer than it realistically needs to be.
The cops in this drama are really pushing it at times >_<

Thanks for your review!
I watched it thinking almost the exact same things you did - especially regarding the latter half of the series which was getting pretty draggy and flashback-crazy.
I thought that I was the only one that didn't understand why everyone was screaming 'BEST DRAMA EVER.'
But I can certainly understand that Ji Sung's acting was the real show stealer and everyone was won over by his portrayal of the personalities more than anything else! Definitely a 10 for his acting alone :)

Yeah I kind of agree with you, it's not like I don't like the story underlying deep and dark backstory, but the last two episodes were quite repetitive (?) It's mainly to do with the editing of the episode rather than the story. It's like they are trying to build up the tension and do a slow reveal using the flashbacks by making lots of variations of the same thing. The first 6 minutes of flashbacks for episode 15 was just far too long. I understand that it's a creative artsy kind of way to reveal, but they didn't have to make it so choppy and repetitive. Plus we have to see those same flashbacks again every time someone remembers a tiny detail >__<

I'm sure everyone is also wondering about Nana and Mr. X personalities from the trailer... we have yet to meet either in person. I suspect that they might have made a plot choice to leave out Mr. X since he has never been mentioned by Do Hyun or his personalities - unless he's going to miraculously swoop in but it's kind of late now...
I'm just hoping that next week's episode returns that extra spark. I mean, the end of episode 16 was a pretty good twist that I wasn't expecting, so hopefully they can still pull through!
