This is NOT your usual drama! It's fantastic, and having some amazing acting talent on-board has definitely helped it a lot. It's insightful and shines a spotlight on some home truths that need to be seen I think. I really enjoyed this one, and it definitely scratched a different itch to the usual kdrama's, so if you want something different - give it a watch.

This one is going to take you into the offices inside a school and you'll be taken on a journey as the teachers go through their behind-the-scenes work to provide education for the kids and all the challenges they face.

Starting out with a horrible accident that changes the life of Ha-Neul forever as it inspires her to become a teacher, the story follows her early career as she joins a school as a contract temporary teacher and is immediately thrown into the middle of intense office politics.

While this drama takes place in a school, it's more of an office drama - the politics between departments, the power struggles of the power hungry, those who are going above and beyond to try and provide the best education to the students and those who come to work for a pay check.

I picked this one up because of Seo Hyun-Jin, i'll watch anything she's in because I enjoy her acting - but I'd re-watch it because of the story and all the other characters without a doubt.

It's really interesting to see the school situation from this perspective, as they are a struggling school that is really struggling to get universities to accept or even consider their students they start coming up with strategies to take their top students and push them further - but then this has other consequences. From an outside perspective you would no doubt share the students and parents view of them being single minded to the top 1% of students but seeing all the discussions, meetings and debates you see that things are always more complicated than that.

There's no romance here, not even the slightest whiff of one, so don't come here expecting it :)

Worth a watch!
