Review:
I was really excited for this series for a lot of reason. One, because I love the previous series, School 2013, so much that this was a must to watch. Second, because Sungjae and Kim So Hyun and Nam Hyuk was playing the lead roles. I mean, I honestly, can't pick which team to go on but, here the deal. I wanted Go Eun Byul with Han Yi An and Lee Eun Bi with Gong Tae Kwang. That was how it was, but I mean it doesn't matter does it now. Third but not lastly, the mystery to this series added all the excitement and funnest to this series. Also the fact that Kim So Hyun playing twins was amazing already. The story line was great and amazing. And the truth is, I really hated the whole entire bully, but that how school is in life, correct? Okay, not exactly like that but sort of like that right? It was also great to see a lot of people appearing on the show.
