this is not a kdrama it's an Indie movie
This show is so EFFING WEIRD!!!! I love it so so so much. I love how it reminds me of Wes Anderson/Jordan Peele/Zombieland/The End of the F***king World. It's so weird and so whack you're just gonna be so engrossed into the weird world of fantasy and satire. If you love both indie films and kdramas, this is the PERFECT blend.
Plot-wise, there definitely was some lacking. I saw a comment like this and I really agreed with it:
"there are 2 things; one, the director had a vision of weirdness they wanted to express so this felt like an independent film rather than a drama, and I feel like the plot lost substance trying to achieve that vision.
and two, I don't know what they teach to all korean writers but they cannot explain their plot in less than 16 eps and they need 100 side plots to distract people from the main plot, so in this it felt like they had a 16ep plan that got reduced and they just picked random events fit the drama"
It felt like the impact could be more had they extended the length of the drama since we only had 6eps. They have a really interesting setup and premise, the characters are also immensely complex and unique, it would've been such a great opportunity to elaborate it as a social commentary or to use it to discuss political issues. I think some were actually covered throughout the 6 eps, but the impact could've hit harder had they explored these underlying themes a little bit more. It being only 6 ep, the viewer ends up spending most of the time wondering what's going on. A little bit of a waste, but... still enjoyable.
The cast is stellar...This has got to be NJH's most mature role that suits him the most. I actually thought he would act as a student and when I found out his character would be a teacher i was like whaaaat... but he unexpectedly pulls it off so well. NJH has an aura of maturity in him that was never really seen in his other teenage roles, and I'm so glad he chose to act in such an unconventional show despite being a Hallyu Star, it really suits him. He complements Jang Yu Mi so well!
Have always been a fan of JYM so this was just a treat. Her character was freaking hilarious and NJH offsets her craziness really well. The side cast of the students and the teachers were also so amazing, it really gives you the creeps.
the cinematography --- UGH so amazing. The music --> a blessing to my ears.
Overall, a really memorable show that you can't help but love and constantly think about. love it~
