I came here for the drama of students but give me the drama of adults.
After several delays and problems occurred before the official release, I really waited for so long just to watch this one since I am a big fan of KBS’ school series. I have a love-and-hate feedback about the show since it was different from the previous shows but also the reason why the show doesn’t have a definite impact on me.
The first half of School 2021 was really a great one but they failed to be consistent on maintaining the satisfying ambiance of watching the show after the last few episodes. From unexpected plot twists from the beginning to the typical classic plot in the ending, the downfall. Also, the story of the side couple overshadowed the story of the main couple. They don’t even have the proper chemistry needed in the story. I can’t feel anything except seeing two actors trying their best to create chemistry but failed to do so. I am really happy to see Yohan’s acting skill improved during this show but I can’t feel that he is the main character. Kang Se Yeon’s character was more likely deserving to be the main character compared to the others.
On the other hand, Kang Min playing the role of Ho Sung was really cringe. His character here is the most annoying one in terms of acting. I just feel that it doesn’t fit him. The same with his on-screen couple Eun Bi. The way she smiles was really awkward most of the time. I was really looking forward to her role since she has the same name from my favorite school series in 2015, yet her acting doesn’t give justice to her role.
The thing I hate the most is that the story revolves around the world of adults. It was a never-ending struggle of students facing their life involving the adults as the villain. Yes, it happens in real life but I am expecting more youthful struggles involving the interpersonal and intrapersonal relationship of the students.
Anyways, it was good enough for a School series but I expected more than from what they gave me. Some student characters have interesting stories but they tend to focus more on the issue of the annoying adults trying to ruin the life of the students for their selfish reasons. The OST “Dream On” contributes additional points in my score review since I really like the song.
