It's really annoying that if you watch one k- or j- drama Netfix start to suggest them in an intrusive way and won't stop forever it feels. So I detected this show and was intrigued by the idea of it. A bit. I hesitated watching it because I feared they ruined the story.
The first episodes were promising and I liked the characters except of this girl with the mask on her chin, I did not understand the purpose. Well maybe I don't have to because I'm far beyond teenage age ;) Can someone explain? Also I'm with the boy- I didn't see Hijiri as a teacher for middle schoolers. When she said to him she loved her class I literally winced. Maybe because I´m too old for this.
But the drama, oh the drama! Full of wonderful, stereotypical "coincidences" and poetic sundowns. Those are the four stars. They ruined the plot after the three years gap. Everyone was so possessed by the past, I mean, hello? Why should a teacher explain her past to unrelated parents and excuses herself, as if she actually did something to harm their children? And is gossiping the new way of living? The only reasonable person was Mrs. Haraguchi. Hijiri should have chosen her.
