Meet Me After School

Very good the lead actor is so handsome could look at him all day. The story was heartbreak in parts really felt empathy for the lead actors . considering it was his first lead acting he was excellent cant wait to see him in other movies or dramas .

I'm not sure how to feel about this drama. For one it really is an excellent drama with some of the best chemistry I've seen and great performances. The obvious issue though is the ML is a 15 year old falling for his 25 year old teacher. For the life of me I'll never understand why they didn't make the ML 18 instead of 15 and avoid controversy altogether, I mean why even go there? But they went there. The drama does not glorify or condone this behavior, but it definitely romanticizes it and that's what a lot of people understandably have a problem with.

I suggest you watch for yourself and see what you think, there is a lot to be felt in this drama.

When I started it, I didn't know what to expect from the story ( I thought boy would be 18 and even if he had feelings for the teacher, he would confess after few years or something) but boom, not at all like it, everything happens so quickly.

The teacher is very sweet, friendly and cheerful ( trying her best ) and the student ( 15 years old) is complicated ( haha not bad personality, little tired of family drama I guess ). I was in shock how their relationship gradually built ( it is definitely shocking).

I believe if the teacher was more strict, such situation would not arise ( she literally fell for him instantly which seems disappointing, like one should atleast have discipline and professionalism).

The storyline takes many unpredictable turns so it's interesting. It was definitely not at all boring ( a good binge watch) but I believe the concept is very controversial.

This drama deals with the taboo of not only age gap and forbidden love but also with having a relationship with a minor. I won't review this drama based on my own views on the matter, as it didn't glorify it, but just presented the story and the tragedy of their love. So, emotion wise, this one was strong at that area. Especially at the begining, however, it got boring towards the end and the pace slowed down as well. I also enjoyed the presentation of the how everyone else viewed their choices as well as the emotional struggles the two leads had to deal with. In addition, the performances were really good and the cinematography on point for this drama.

So - if pupils set fire to something and get burnt and taken to hospital - who do the authorities call? Parents - of course - the police - maybe - but teachers?

I have never heard of anything similar in any other country.

The school's senior female teacher (wearing a grotesque grey wig) told the young teacher not to wear light clothing - not to use scented shampoo or body lotions - I suppose perfume would have resulted in immediate dismissal. Not to mention being driven to the hospital by her "lover".

The young teacher was just too sweet and innocent for words - there was no way she should have been put in charge of a bunch of hormonal teenagers - mostly male.

In my view - the young man who fell in love with her looked far older than fifteen - if you want to make a point about age gap love at least make the actors look the age they are supposed to be.

I didn't find their story convincing - he should have been expelled immediately after slapping her. When she took no action it damaged her credibility as a teacher in my view. She was far too accepting of every display of disrespect by her pupils. She had no control over them at all. She wasn't fit for the job.

Was this scenario meant to convey her emotional weakness?

As usual we had to have the compulsory same sex kiss by her boyfriends female colleague and his descent from hero to zero when he was unfaithful to her with said colleague who informed him that she was conveniently "Bi".

It was as if this was put forward as an excuse for our heroine's subsequent behaviour.

The acting was OK - but the story was not gripping because the outcome was too obvious.
