I found this drama really uplifting and inspirational with there being several different paths to choose from and the most obvious one does not mean you have to travel it.

I enjoyed the story in this, I tend to avoid school dramas but since it was centred around the teachers I did not mind as much. The pacing felt almost slice of life with quite a few time jumps towards the end, probably due to episode constraints or timing issues. It also shows all types of teachers, the good, bad and the ugly side of education and it also shows that sometimes not getting the best results does not mean you are going to live an unhappy life. I also liked the fact it centred around a group of varied teachers, rather than all young or old, but a mix with different aspirations. Black Dog also gives an insight to how much a teachers life centres around their students as even after hours they can be a source to rely on in times of need.

The acting in this drama was great, even the school kids did a good job, as i struggle to watch children in dramas due to their inexperience in front of a camera can be quite off putting. The cost did a great job of portraying different types of teachers and the struggles they could have outside of school hours.

Once again I do not rate music or rewatch value high as I do not normally rewatch dramas nor do I watch them for their music.

I would recommend this to someone who wants to watch a character develop with all the emotions attached :)
