Undercover High School

Korean Drama '' Undercover High School '' is a school mystery thriller with a strong comedic element.

The story is not that original, but the mystery is, and the comedy part was well handled, with enough funny scenes to lighten the mood. The mystery was also intriguing, it was well paced, and had smooth twists.

The romance, on the other hand, could have been omitted, as it didn't really add anything to the plot, and was half baked in the end, as the drama opted to focus more on the mystery, thankfully, and not on the love story.

Finally, the performances were all great by everyone in the cast.

So, overall, eight out of ten.

It's been a while since a series hooked me this much. I've been eagerly waiting each week for new episodes and didn't feel disappointed even once.

Great blend of different genres - action, adventure, comedy, romance and all of them so well written. Jin Ki-joo and Seo Kang-joon truly brought their characters to life and their chemistry is of the charts.

There is many kdrama cliches in the story which I often find bothersome but they are so well introduced that felt very natural.

The main story is fast paced and I wish there was more time to dive into some dinamics between characters or side stories but I guess it was impossible with 12 ep.

Overall a must watch!

10 all around! Has suspense, mystery, action, romance, comedy and the cutest ML who is doing a great job playing an elite agent and undercover student in an elite high school. Finally, the FL is a match for the ML (cute and an equal, confident). Great job in casting.

This series takes you on an emotional roller coaster as the ML also has his own secret mission - and that is to not fail his dad who was also an elite agent and has been missing for 20 years.

Of course the high school does have some bullying and the way the ML handles it is heart warming - great script.

One last note is that this drama is easy going and NOT too violent - very easy to watch but at the same time thrilling scenes.

In this era of K-dramas like "Squid Game" and "All of Us Are Dead," sometimes we just need a breather, don't we? "Undercover High School" serves that purpose beautifully. As the title suggests, it follows the story of an NIS agent who goes undercover. The series is action-packed, fun, spontaneous, and intense, while also sprinkling in humor and a touch of romance.

The acting is top-tier, and the chemistry between the leads is captivating. It has been a while since we've had characters with such distinct antagonistic roles, making it interesting to watch the events unfold. My only complaint is that it was too short-only 12 episodes, oh my gosh! The drama struggled to focus on the couples, but I still craved and enjoyed their screen time together so much! Hae-song was literally born to play this role.

It's definitely worth a watch, period. Thank you for taking the time to read this! I hope you enjoy the series and have a wonderful day!

Halfway through, we found ourselves just waiting for the show to finally be over. It felt like a waste of time, but I'm the kind of person who needs to finish what I've started, even if I'm not enjoying it. The acting was average at best-nothing special or memorable.

There was far too much unnecessary drama, the supposed comedy didn't land at all, and the ending was painfully predictable. We honestly don't understand how this show has such high ratings. Maybe it's appealing to people who haven't seen many shows before or are watching a Korean drama for the first time.

So save your time or do not expect too much!! Don't believe the hype!!
