Duty After School

I saw many people said about the HS teenager is dumb. Bad character,so many stupid scene about them doing stuff like complaining, etc.

So, I'mma ask y'all: (with the consideration CSAT is an important exam in South Korea because it allows you to get into top uni in Korea and change your life for those who didn't have much money) "What would you probably do if these thing were to happen and you're just a teenager who wanna take your important exam, have a good grade, get to good university and turn your life around?"

would y'all really pickup your weapon and fight the unknown creature which can instantly kill you? Would you REALLY PICKUP YOUR WEAPON?

Would you really not whine?would you really not wanna quit and just go home?

It's true that their character development seems sucks, because even if they went through all that stuff, they are still a TEENAGER who haven't grow up yet and keep in mind that the event itself only take place for a few months. In the end, even though they had went through all that stuff, their personality wouldn't really change that much because ONCE AGAIN THEY ARE A TEENAGE. THEY WOULDN'T SUDDENLY become brave and just accepted what had or would happen iN just A COUPLE OF MONTH. So Chill out, they ain't no special force or a soldier, they are a bunch of high school teenager.

Sure, their personality and character sucks, and the ending isn't what we want. I mean what do you expect from a high school teensger? Save the world? Kill all the sphere?rescue all people?. Let's be real, maybe you had watched too much Disney film or such that you think it's normal for a high school teenager to have save the world and have a great personality. At the very least, this show told us that handing weapon to a bunch of teenager is a bad idea.

This was worse than I expected but still good?

I guess because I am used to the quality of this kind of kdramas lately, ie: all of us are dead, kingdom, sweet home, my name... I was excited when I read the description if this one and was very much looking forward to it.

The beginning was too slow and kept focusing on the students relationships and lives pre invasion, which it dragged way too much and made me as a viewer literally hate the whiny kids who are just crying and complaining about how unfair the training is without actually getting a grip of the global situation. If they were younger It may have made more sense, but we are talking about 18/19 years olds....

Once you get past that and the action starts and the students get a grip of the situation, it becomes better. I believe this is part one if the show so I believe it will be much better now that the pace has picked up.

Effects aren't the greatest but you won't notice at all, and i love the fact that the girls are also capable strong and independent.

I will rate at 7 but I might change it depending the second part of the season.

I went with this series without knowing anything about it and started watching it. It was so good that the entire family joined me. By the 3rd episode everyone was so hooked that it was one of the only topics of discussion after 6pm at home, how will the kids survive the next mission?.

Everything was "too good" to be true and I was about to recommend this series over any other hollywood trash to all my friends, I was very proud of liking Korean shows that almost never dissaponted me before.

Then chapter 6-10 came in and everything I cherished so much about the first part went downhill in ways I just cannot express properly here.

It's like the series first part 1-5 were directed and written by the very best of korea and then part 2 (chapter 6-10) were written by morons who really enjoy seeing everyone suffer for no reason.

The whole "feeling" of Part 2 is: meaningless, useless, gritty without any redeeming value, senseless, pointless.

Everything that they care so much to build up to Chapter 5 were completely destroyed in front of my eyes, like someone really wanted me to suffer for no reason.

I was left with a sense of hopelessness and frustration beyond belief.

It was not "good gritty bad ending" it was "utterly pointless gritty". Part 2 seems to be written by someone who really disliked all the characters and the audience and wanted the whole thing to implode on itself for no reason other than "shock value".

Then it hit me, I hated this series so much because it tried too hard to be the "game of thrones" of Korea... well congratulations!! You succeeded in making the first TRULY AWFUL series that I TRULY HATE.

Now when they ask me if I ever hated a korean show, I have this show to prove that it is indeed possible, that koreans really screw things up this much.

I was absolutely thrilled when I first got my hands on part one of the Duty After School series. The series had everything I could ever ask for - army, guns, monsters, and aliens! It was the perfect combination of action and suspense that left me on the edge of my seat throughout. It gave me such "All of Us Are Dead" vibes .

I was eagerly waiting for part two, but boy, was I in for a rude awakening. The storyline was atrocious, the bad direction was all over the place, and that ending! It was the worst ending I've seen in a century! I honestly think that even the creators didn't know what they were doing with part two.

It was a complete and utter disappointment, a pile of trash that left me wondering why they even bothered making it. Part one was a masterpiece that deserved every bit of its 9-star rating, but part two barely deserves a single star. I wouldn't even watch it again if someone held a gun to my head and forced me to.

I don't know what the creators were thinking. They had a goldmine with part one, but they completely dropped the ball with part two.

If you are reading my review then let me do a favour for you "DO NOT WATCH PART TWO".

I wasted my valuable time watching part two, I am still asking my self why the hell did I waited a month for this trash?

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.
