Hakgyo 2017

I really enjoyed this show. The characters were engaging and played their parts great! Loved the scenery we got to see. The mystery was entertaining and lots of episodes were surprising on things that happened. It'll keep you entertained and you'll find yourself enjoying this pretty great show.

I liked it a lot because it brought out a very important aspect of our present time and very well. Now there is corruption in many schools that middle class families have to fall prey to. The family has to struggle a lot to educate the children of these families in a good educational institution, but even then the educational institutions only give all kinds of facilities to the elite students and threaten to kick the rest out of the school so that they accept all the wrongdoings of the school committee without any protest. I think this series has highlighted these issues through a very beautiful story. Also, many good aspects of friendship are also revealed here.

As the heading suggests it is childish and the acting is not great. The actors might have been capable of doing better acting but i cant say anything for sure since the script and plot was trash. It was not a very well planned out drama and was super rushed. I cringed a few timed but it wasn't thAt cringy overall.

I watched the first episode and didn't think much of it as i left school quite a bit ago and felt a bit past this. Two months later i watched episode 2, and i'm so glad i did! Admittedly Korean schools are different to Australian schools, but fundamentally the friendships and the crazy parents/staff are exactly the same, and the kids fight the system just as hard. It took me back to high school and i loved the friendships, the fights, the plotting, the storyline and really ended up enjoying the series. Watch it, don't give up like i nearly did! The eye candy, horrible, rebellious and the kids that 'aren't quite there' make it great too because that is in every school too, wherever in the world you are.

Even though the plot isn't the best, coming from an aisan show, you don't expect a girl to fight her own fights, to stop the guy from using temper and many other decisions. the story gives very good lessons and makes you questions a lot of things the characteristic of each character is very perfectly created this show breaks a lot of stereotypes, like main female lead to be timid, the male teacher to be arrogant etc rather it shows imperfections within the human, like the topper kid isn't the happiest and many others if you're someone sick of the stereotypes then it's a must watch for you
