It is derived from “Master of Study”, a-2010-Korean Drama aired on KBS which adapted Japanese manga “Dragon Zakura”. My friend said it is great (yes, it is) and funny (no, it is not!!!). If it’s funny, why it made me cry a river in every episode (where till today I only had watched 4 episodes!).

Kang Suk Ho, a lawyer who supposed to liquidate Byung Moon high school, willingly try to safe this ‘garbage-school’ from bankruptcy by dealing with the headmistress to send out 5 students to Cheonha University, a famous college in Korea.

For me, it’s really really touching. It offers 5 different background of each main character:

1.    Hwang Baek Hyun (played by Yoo Seung-ho who also played in “Arang and the Magistrate”) : He was an orphan who was raised by his grandma. How hard his grandma worked just wanted her grandson study well and success. They lived in poor condition so Baek Hyun took part-time job. However, after joining the ‘Special Class’, he must attend it full timely.

2.    Gil Pul Ip : a strong character of a girl. Her widow-mother fell in love with a married-man and was addicted with alcohol. She found it’s hard to study well at home where every night her mother and her boy friend sung karaoke. I thought she was afraid to end up with the same condition as her mom so she saw that ‘Special Class’ was hope and escape.

3.    Hong Chan Doo : His family was wealth but he was not as smart as his brothers that he entered Byung Moon high school. His father forbade him to dance, his only hobby and gift. However, he also wanted to proof to his dad that he could join good college and be proud of him. That’s why he joined the ‘Special Class’.

4.    Oh Bong Goo : He was fat and kind-heartedly. He smiled always, even to things and situation that he didn’t like. He studied hard more than everyone because for him intelligence was not a gift. Even his parents thought that he didn’t have to be smart because he just needed to run their restaurant. He loved to study so he joined the ‘Special Class’.

5.    Na Hyun Jung : A beautiful-girly-student who was so in love with Baek Hyun. I can’t tell much about her cause until episode 4, the series didn’t tell more about her. Anyway, it’s good that the ‘Special Class’ was complete with her presence.

Those five teenagers tried to reach their own dream through one same way, studying. They supported each other. Also this good atmosphere of study brought good result. I believe the ending of this series is happy ^^

And again I fell in love with one of its ost titled “Because I’m Weary”. It’s so me in the work place (~__~) it’s so melodious … It was sung by Ernest but I just can’t find his picture on the internet so did everyone else also curious of his face ^^
