Help me release my hatred on tutors

The plot is on middle class parents trying every means to let their children study medicine in top universities. The story is a bit exaggerated with a mum loses her life because of this. But a bit of exaggeration does keep the story interesting to follow.

The supertutor in the story causes the breaking of a family because she malteach tbe son of the family. In reality, this is not too possible. But i would say many of the tutors in my place are doing bad jobs and cause their students' failure to be admitted to universities. These tutors are simply too lazy to perform for what they have been paid, and destroy the futures of their students without any guilt at heart.

I hope the supertutor in the drama would be punished because of her deed.

Fathers of the families are all acted by familiar faces. The interpreter in Mr Sunshine, the site supervisor in DOTS and the assistant in KMHM. They light up the whole drama with their super acting skill.

This drama reminds me of another drama Investigation Couple. A student jumping down from a building because of illusion caused by taking of medication to boost his spirit for studying. The pills are supplied by his mother. Again a tragedy because of unreachable goals on children education.

Both drama give reminder to parents not to exert excess pressure on their children.

Seeing up to epd 14. below is the updated comments

Hye na is the best actor among the lads. She is cunning, full of plan to reocover her identity. Among the mums, writer mum is the worst. Her facial expression has no much difference in every scene.

Twin mum's response to her lying daughter is adorable. This forgiving mum is our role model. Character of lads can still be reshaped. It is unwise to be too harsh with their foolishness.

2 daughters' mum is too obssessed with academic results of her children, thus making too much compromise for an effective tutor. One thing is that she like to throw water to someone whom she feels doing wrong, including the super tutor. In our society, we believe that we should not make extreme reaction to a person who is obviously wrong or cheating you. This would only arouse unreasonable hatred and retaliation.

It is amazing how the writer makes up an education thriller. No beautiful female lead. No handsome male lead. No romance. All are middle aged roles. But still achieve the highest seeing rating in korea. Unfortunately it is not on netfix. Foreign watchers simply miss this fascinating drama.

After watching epd 15 and fast forwarding epd 16, i am a bit disappointed with the drama. I feel that the end of the drama is rotten. I have to lower the score from 8 to 7.

The plot turn unreasonable. The supertutor is not God. How can she plot the death of hya na and frame woo jin as killer, just being a tutor and has just one assistant. The parent meeting and fight is utterly unnecessary. It makes the series a soap drama.

Rumour says that the drama is extended from 16 to 20 epd. That is probably the reason behind why the story suddenly turns unreasonable and elongated illogically.

Like Secretary Kim, i just cannot figure out why seeing rate is so high. I hate unresonable storyline my self. Perhaps i am more demanding than average audience. But epd before 15 is perfectly ok. So it still score a rating of 7.
