Dever Após a Escola (2023)

just go watch, wth u doing

i honestly don't know how to write a review, so obviously the reason I'm writing this is because this drama was SOO good I had to let my feelings out. The plot was well-rounded and the relationship the students had with each other was very admirable and just overall nice to see. There was never a moment where I felt bored watching this show. Like most captivating dramas, each episode would normally end with a cliff hanger to force the viewer to watch the next episode immediately - this drama didn't even need to this to be binge-worthy. I must say, the ending was not the best (sad ending), but even with a bad ending, it wasn't enough to drag this show down in any way. SUCH A GOOD SHOW!!!!

Worthy but not necessary

I haven't read the webtoon so this is based only on the series.
This was an interesting take on the apocalytpic genre woven into the dynamics of being a high schooler. The idea is quite creative and while the storyline could have been much more intricate and the season longer, it's still a good watch if you want something quick and adrenaline rushing. I would have definitely liked more episodes focusing on the backgrounds of the characters in depth, and the bonds between them and their superiors. For a long time, I couldn't memorise their names either because there was not enough spotlight on a few characters at one time...

There were some annoying and frustrating characters such as the cowardly girls who wanted to leave everything and run away. The constant whining, scream-crying almost made me drop the episode or skip the scene, especially when the dialogue repeats itself at least twice in a single episode. I almost felt like slapping them so i'm surprised at how and why the opposite characters were soooo good at holding back and not lashing out at them in times of emergencies (it would have been understandable if there were more clashes)

P.S. it's better to assume that this is a solo work with an open ending instead of watching season 2. You're better off without it :-)

one of the best survival series

I've watched the other shows with similar plotlines such as Sweet Home and All of Us Are Dead etc. so Duty After School had a synopsis that piqued my interest. The plot moves slow and fast at the same time. Slow as in, the character development is pretty lacking, but fast, in a way that so MUCH happens in one episode. So much changes per episode yet there's not really an explanation for such big changes. One thing I felt lacking in storytelling was how fast some of them learned to weld firearms and shoot, however, their mentality was still just as immature and frustrating as before. (just a few character though) The pack is constantly moving and there's a lot of killing/gore lol.

Overall, the drama was great, it kept me on the edge of my seat (quite literally) the entire time and it was interesting enough for me to complete in one day. I developed a big crush for the commander sergeant,, maybe i just like tsunderes LOL. But the ending was pretty unfortunate and the kids are all good kids (for the most part) so I enjoyed watching the show.

It was kind of hard to keep track of who was who in the beginning because there were so many characters, but it was interesting how they really separated each character and we got to know their personalities throughout the episodes. My favorite characters were Kim Chiyeol (Kimchi), Soo Cheol, Na ra, and JangSoo. I eventually started liking everyone towards the ending but some were truly a struggle ._.

A good thriller, and action drama but the editing was a little meh

I've seen a lot of edits of this show on TikTok, and now, after finishing it, I get the hype for this show. They did a nice job depicting the student life: immature kids who always whine and are out of touch in reality but slowly mature as they understand what is going on. I'm glad that the aliens here are interesting to know and watch, since in the other fantasy dramas I have seen, the "fantasy" or "sci-fi" parts were so boring. A lot of characters were so annoying, but a lot of them are also exciting to see. The action scenes are so good, but since the students are either arguing or complaining, it gets irritating. The cliffhanger was nice; since this has a second season, it would make you curious about what will happen and how they will end the invasion of these unknown creatures. A 9/10 for me.

Good Enough

Korean Drama " Dute After School Part One " is a sci fi horror story in a school setting.

The story is full of emotional scenes and a few gory ones, with the aliens and their invasion being kept at bay for the last episodes when the action truly kicks in.

The characters, moreover, are kind of annoying, truly teenagers caring for having fun and focusing on their own problems, rather than the current situation, that is until they come face to face with their reality. Which is to say that they were realistic and original.

As for the performances, everyone in the cast, especially the young ones, did a great job with their characters.

So, overall, seven out of ten.

please don't use logic

if you forget all sense of logic, sensibility and realistically how a situation can be handled, this drama will be okay. dont use brain. its so frustrating, annoying and laughable if you start trying to solve their obstacles and then see how they're using the worst possible way to solve

but lol besides that the characters are okay. everyone is too angry all the time but that's okay, mostly teenagers are at play. it didnt really feel that realistic or believable in the setting they put but it's interesting still. if you don't use brain you'll enjoy. let them solve things badly and just enjoy the show at face value then it's easy

Muy buena adaptación.

Hace tiempo que leí el web cómic y no me pareció muy bueno, la historia se centraba demasiado en el protagonista y su romance en medio de la guerra, a parte de que no se mostraba como si fuera una amenaza que realmente requiriera de usar a los civiles como soldados. En esta adaptación lograron arreglar todo lo que no me gustó del original y me sorprendió demasiado porque si bien toma los puntos clave de la trama original le logra dar un buen giro a los eventos para que se sienta más la tensión de la situación, además de que el protagonismo se lo lleva toda la clase y vemos cómo evoluciona conforme va avanzando la historia. De igual manera, creo que los efectos especiales de las esferas no se ven mal y su diseño me gustó más que los originales.

Definetly something different

I liked this one, I think the drama and story were overall very unique. I liked that the aliens didn't look fake at all in my opinion, in other words, the sci-fi was on point. the ending in other words was very disappointing and when I watched the second part it made it worse because it's so confusing. I'd still give it a 10/10 because overall everything stood out to me. I think the first episodes in the second part were so cool, and every character had a huge development. if you are looking to watch something different I recommend this. This was even different than All of us are dead. Which is one of my top dramas, it was different. I can only hope for a third reason to make it make sense in my head. Honestly, I suggest you stop watching after ep 6, although the beginning of the second part its super cool, and you can see all of them coming together and helping each other. I read lots of comments saying the it shows the typical other drama's story but it was different for me given the situations they were in. I recommend dit though, its different and not boring at all.

IS THIS A MUST WATCH?! prob.......

A.... Yes. I actually watched this season 1 and season 2 multiple times. This is worth watching!
First and foremost the cast! Although there are some of them who are not popular as much as other actors are, they are actually really good! And speaking of the cast, I love it how the characters have their own roles, have their own lines no one had been left out and the y give importance to those characters so much.
Even though they're just supporting characters they are well played.

The characters relationship, their unity their bond, and everything I love it, and mostly their friendship. In time like this it is so good to see everyone helping each other to survive.

I actually love the 1st season tho.

And for the plot... I THINK A LOT WAS LEFT OUT. I don't know... But for sure something is missing.

As for CG it's good! 🔥
