1. I’m loving this drama so much. Jun Ho is so genz coded, his mannerisms and the way he responds to people. When he told his dad, I didn’t know your social life was hard at work, I had a good time😂😂. I love the pacing of the drama, I really didn’t enjoy Wi Ha Joon’s acting much but this is opening my eyes to him as an actor.

2. if there wasn’t something between them in the past, or at least her having hots for him while him being her student (which is so not right on so many levels), then her being a teenager and suddenly being so awkward around him would be weird and borderline annoying……cz student becoming a teacher isn’t something out of the ordinary or something happening for the 1st time……

4. What that Mr. Pyo thinks is that these academies are ruining the system. While I don’t quite know the proper syllabuses these high school kids learn, I feel that he’s got a point, but he’s also being hella petty. What I’m questioning is, at the end of the day, does it do more good to the kids or make the kids suffer even more than they already are?

   And Junho, wow, his audition was kinda expected, so while it was impressive, it was kinda meh for me. Lolol I felt that he was trying a bit too hard right there. But that’s just my personal opinion. His confrontation with Ms. Seo at the library though!!! He totally caught her off guard and KO-ed her. Hahahah. Damn he’s smooth as efffffff.

   His confrontation with his parents, however, kinda broke my heart coz I see where both are coming from. Wish his parents would eventually support his decision.

5. Brilliant second episode. Can’t wait for the midnight romance to start and from the previews it seems that we will get right into it.
   It feels like the (old) english teacher likes the FL and might be the SML here.

   The (new) Female korean teacher- So Ju-Yeon- seems like a sweet person, I just hope that all the special treatment that Jun Ho is getting does not make her jealous and become a bad person. I hope she remains as a positive character till the end.
   Also I feel that she will be paired with the (new) english teacher- if he is hired, we still don’t know if he made it.

   Seems like a good start but there are quite a lot of heavy topics that come up in these academy dramas (eg. suic*des, unhealthy competition, sabotaging etc) and now it seems that the school teacher has taken a hit to his ego and is fighting back.

   As I said, really looking forward to the midnight romance.

6. There was probably something between them in the past, that’s the only way to explain why she’s being immature and putting up walls. But then again if there was something between them I’m morally conflicted because of the age gap, even worse if he was a minor. But I guess we’ll see.

7. The music is so 70s LoL & peppy? Preppy?🤪😂 Who can concentrate when ur teacher is Jun Ho aka Mr. Sexy eheheh?

   So obvious Jun Ho’s eng teacher crushes on Hye Jin.. Ms. Kim look like she’s really interested in Jun Ho..

   Jun Ho is so cheeky ha-ha & love teasing Hye Jin, though she shuts him down quickly.. for now.🤪😂 Mr. Pyo is just a boomer whose stubborn and rigid. Just watching him walk down the school hall in his ill fitting pants was laughable to me tch.

8. is it because that she knows she will fall for him immediately if he gets hired? She must have had hots for him at some point.

9. É o roteiro está indo para aquilo que imaginava, professor x estudante que agora virou professor também. Só que vai dar ruim, por que vão dizer que eles tiveram um caso há 10 anos e irá o drama da perseguição e rumores, claramente ela será a mais afetada.

11. Joon ho is one cheeky guy, and I love it. He knew what his teacher/mentor was trying to do. The way he keeps reminding her how she’s ”crossing the line” feels like he wants her to remember that when he’ll be the one crossing lines.

    I must say, I am really liking this drama. Regardless of the actual story, the vibe that this gives off is right up my ally (especially the music).

12. This series is just like another commentator said, slowwwww, gloomy, no colour, the DeNoir style of filming which is so off-putting. No comedy, no sparks whatsoever between the leads. Just hanging on hoping it will happen in the next episode, otherwise dropping it. The old fashioned teachers’ clothes, their way of speaking is making me crazy. No-one with colourfull clothes or a bit of spark, just one monologue talking all the time.
