Deber Después de Clases

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 for the first part.

Korean Drama "Duty After School Part Two" is the continuation and conclusion of the story.

The drama takes up from where the first part left off, even though it feels like the characters had gone through a major character development, as they are left alone to fend for themselves, while having to choose between staying at their protected spot or venturing out to find their families.

The story, moreover, presents a new twist, with the main villain, in the end, and the main danger being the students themselves rather than the aliens that have now taken over.

As for the characters, they really grew up and distinguished themselves, with their relationship offering plenty of emotional scenes, especially considering that they are just young people robed from their chance of living their teenage years.

Finally, the performances were pretty enjoyable.

However, the ending was rushed and didn't offer any information for what happened next.

So, overall, six and a half out of ten for the second part.

Of the same ilk as "All of Us Are Dead" (Korean high-school zombie disaster mini-series).

Duty After School is adapted from a shorter Korean webtoon. Noticeably slower pace of action compared to other similar thriller series. A LOT of Part 1 is spent on the angsty emotions of teenagers being unknowingly drafted into a war against aliens. Lots of scenes with the usual social/political jibes at the Korean education system, bullying, yada yada you know the drill by now.

When there is any action, it's spent on the kids running around like headliess flies, screaming and panicking. Period of calm are denoted by even more angsty teenage scenes with angsty emotions. Did I forget to mention almost all the male kids are angsty and behave like 12 yr olds?

The age and behavior doesn't make much sense ... since they are all supposed to be 17-18 (final year of highschool). Several countries like Israel, Singapore and yes, even S. Korea, start their mandatory conscription draft at age 18. And they definitely don't behave as immaturely as the kids here do.

But hey if you're like me, with nothing better to do and easily entertained watching disaster films, all while complaining about the infinite plotholes and even more infinite ammo, this is the perfect way to waste a Sunday.

The first part was a fabulous building up story it wasn't new but refreshing and wel written the actor fab.... But the 2 part did they switch writers? Did someone told them their budget was cut what happend? The story is so not logical like the jammed 4 seasons in to 4 parts? The prison scene? The other highschool kids? Moving in to Seoul? Looked like they where short of money and somebody cancelled the show!! What a shame I would have accepted the end but not like this noway... Worst written show after a fabulous first season. The director must have been high on something during the shooting of the serie every blind person could have noticed it was a crap second season really crappy.

It starts with a slow pace. Then when everything seems getting better, the flaws come up more and more.

The weakest point of this series is character development. They are so stupid with their decisions. Sometimes it also mix with poor acting. I hate almost all of the character.

The 'bad' guy turns into 'kinda' good with no reason. The 'princess' or the 'selfish' do not take any consequences for what they've done. The 'good' guy feels sympathy for...everyone, even the 'bad' guy who made a horrible mistake. A lot of them are just being so annoying.

The cgi is alright for a series.

Tbh, I'm just trying to finish what I started. Just hate quitting. I don't recommend this series to anyone.

Why, why, why do Korean science fiction series and stories start and progress so well, but suddenly end in a disaster, so that the first thought which comes to anyone's mind is that the writer has complicated the story so much that he himself did not know how to end it !!! That is why most of them end badly and the viewer regrets the time he spent watching the drama.

This mini-series is no exception to this rule. The drama starts with a new topic and very good acting and progresses well until the end of the first season. However, in the second season, when it is expected that the reason for the creation of the purple objects and how the characters of the story overcome them will be revealed in four episodes, the story suddenly takes a 180-degree turn and, while moving away from the main axis, becomes a meaningless disaster. I do not recommend watching this series to anyone because it has a very disappointing ending and I give it a 6 out of 10.
