This drama is so cute! Thank you to the collaborative subbing team on YouTube for your hard work!
Hopefully once you finish subbing you would consider releasing the subs to Subscene or something so we can get the soft subs? Encoding hard subs for some of the episodes naturally degrades the video (which is already 720p for the hard subbed ones) and I think soft subs offers more flexibility in the end!
Let's try to get Viki or Dramafever to pick this up. It looks too cute to miss out on and it is a childhood sweethearts romance! :D
Note the title might be "I Am Not an Elite" according to the Trailer below but the poster says "With Elites". I think as long as you give the Chinese name it should be fine.
I really love this type of drama set in school and the characters all seem interesting. I especially like the dynamic between Mu Xi and Dan Yi. However it is a bit strange with how they deal with continuity between episodes. It doesn't necessarily flow in a linear fashion and things that happen at the end of an episode seem to be addressed later episodes and not necessarily in the next one.
Regardless I hope they continue subbing all 18 episodes in English! I really appreciate their work :D
Pretty funny and light-hearted. Although it feels like they are dumbing down Lee Won Geun's character in Officer Hong so Seol Ok can shine. I don't necessarily mind but Officer Hong doesn't really feel like a lieutenant; seems rather incompetent. I hope he won't be just a sounding board so to speak and will have his own character arc.
Extremely solid drama. Engaging through out and I loved the small moments of bromance between Tae Soo and Gi Bum that only comes with 25+ year friendships! Minah and Minhyuk's character were so cute together and had great chemistry :D!
This is an excellent family drama. The chemistry between Jang Mi and Cha Dol is fantastic and the redemption arc for Jang Mi was quite satisfying. I loved how there wasn't any ridiculous makjang plot to the point of insanity and there was a good balance of makjang and humor. I loved all the characters and there were great portrayals of sibling and friend relationships. It is a plus that there isn't some ridiculous love triangle in the sense that the third person respects the decision of the leads and doesn't go through ridiculous lengths to manipulate them or something.
Only one or two characters were really evil in their intent but to be honest at one point it became so comical so I actually enjoyed watching it and looking forward to their inevitable downfall. I was engaged all the way through the show and I highly recommend people to watch it! I didn't have a problem with the cast though some plot lines for side characters were undeveloped. However it wasn't really detrimental to the show. Finally Jang Mi and Cha Dol are really made for each other. They are one of my most favorite OTPs ever! The inversion of the father leaving the mother and child trope is kind of rare for Korean dramas and this show definitely a model example of how it should play out!
For the first time I am not interested in the main leads and it is so entertaining watching from the sidelines so to speak :D! Personally Sung Jae is infinitely better than Ji Wook for Yeong Ja but I don't care much for her storyline. It seems pretty generic.
However, I am so so invested in Seon Ho and Yeong In! The former is so sweet under the prickly exterior and their quasi-hate/love relationship is adorable. It is sad that Seon Ho is pushing her away because he does truly care for, if not love, Yeong In but his family is messed up -_-. Seon Ho is pitiful and I am excited to see how he changes and wrestles control and independence from his family, Yeong In being the likely catalyst. TBH I don't think Yeong In's continual love for Seon Ho is healthy and he is a bit of an asshole for continually trying to break up with her despite his noble intentions because like every girl, she doesn't have an infinite reservoir of optimism or energy to sustain their relationship; she can't do it alone. It is not necessarily a one-sided relationship but she is only going to suffer more with the future in-laws and I hope Seon Ho steps up accordingly! I am sure there is a major reason for her pursuit. And she does seem to genuinely love Seon Ho. The wait is killing me for each episode but luckily it is a daily drama! Does anybody know where Dramacool etc seems to get their subs so I can check on the progress and such? It doesn't seem like Viki has it.
It is really good. It can be slow to some people but I never got bored of it. Great character development and I love the main leads, both acting-wise and chemistry. The show is consistent in its quality throughout.
Such a great episode 1! I am liking the main cast of students and this may result in a good School Life Drama. However, the hints of a really dark overtone behind the school and administration has me so excited!
Romance looks good but the love triangle is going to kill me. I typically don't like love triangles because all of the ensuing angst and stuff, but all is fair in the name of plot and romantic progression I suppose. Hopefully we will get a lot of bromance moments to compensate!
