Everything is in slow motion: the way the characters walk, speak, eat, look at each other...that it's easy to fall asleep.

I found it to be the same as another KDrama "Misaeng" where a temp shows his worth with hard work and determination.

It's one of those k-dramas that hit close to home for whoever know how life is difficult.

A bit unrealistic in a lot of scenes and moments in the story like the introduction. But the drama depicts realistically the period where the Korean society is living in.

A must watch if you've watched My Mister, Misaeng, Prison Playbook, etc.

" Black Dog " was a nice slice of life drama.

For once, a school drama focused more on the teachers and less on the students. The story was pretty good and I really appreciated that they didn't add a romance twist to it, so the drama focused more on the main character and her struggles to become a good teacher who helps her students. However, if I can be totally honest, the last episode was not as good. But, as a whole, the drama was good, sincere, warm and humane. The performances were pretty good too.

So, overall, eight out of ten.

Was very surprised at this as the lead actress is always in roles that make her the victim. No such case in this drama. Mi-Ram was also in this and I love her too. This is about how teachers that start off as temps struggle to get a permanent position in a school of their choice plus the main lead is trying to do what is right for the students. The ending was kind of sad because she wound up in another school but at the very least she still had a job. This is the way it is now even in the states. They claim they need teachers but when people apply they get rejected. Too many politics even when it comes to the hiring of educators. I thought that it only happens here but I guess it happens in Korea as well. A must watch series as this is something different that she is in.

The best thing about this drama is that it wasn't from the student perspective but from the teachers' perspective. It does a lot right and delivers a decent package. However, it is worth noting that, given its lengthy runtime of over 20 hours, there are moments where the narrative can become monotonous or lose its momentum. Additionally, a minor thing that irked me a bit is how certain students looked a bit too old to be a teenager.
