Korean Drama: School 2013

I just finished watching this drama for 2days in a row yesterday. As any
other type of school drama I've watched before, it nearly has all the same typical elements. Started from problematic students, school regulations, teacher vs parents to competition and friendship and still many more. On a scale of 1-10 I give 8.5 for it's unpredictable plot. 

However, there were also some flaws that I can't overlook during the show. Let's say the inspiring educational side was less compared to personal problems, some unfinished conflicts, unpunished mistakes and an open ending. Unlike Japanese school dramas which mostly stressed on the changes in behavior and habit of the students and teachers towards the end, this Korean drama did not put a lot of effort other than mostly friendship and understanding.  It is quite entertaining and recommended.
As any other drama I previously reviewed, the most important part which caught my attention was the wardrobes worn by the 2 main teachers Ms. Jung (Jang Nara )and Mr.Kang (Daniel Choi).
They dressed as if they were a 'couple' in term of warm and subtle color choices style for cold weather with all the coats and wool sweaters. I also noticed the boots. If only I can wear something like it here but that's probably impossible due to less formal look for a teacher. It was simple but nice to match each other's clothes.
Here are some examples that I screenshot from the drama.
Moral value: don't judge a book by its cover, but put yourself in their shoes first to learn better.
