This time I'll talk about the popular 'The Queen's Classroom', it's a korean drama of 16 episodes that aired less than last year.
Plot: the story revolves around an elementary class of 6°graders and their respective new teacher, a dark and stern woman 'Ma teacher', whom they'll call 'Witch Ma' right about the start. Ma-teacher has no expression and seems as cold as ice, always wearing the same dark outfit and being as strict as she can.
Anyway upon the arrival of this new teacher the class will divide and a lot of disputes and bullying will go happen. Teacher Ma seems to be troubled especially by Shin Min Ha, who acts like a sort of heroine, and does everything she can to 'teach her a lesson' and not in a pleasant way.
Luckily Shin Min Ha won't be alone for too much and three other children will help her as time pass by. But the same will happen to everyone who oppose teacher Ma, she sure does not discriminate. Seems like she does everything in her power to make like alienate and make life difficult for them. Not your regular teacher, that's for sure!
Wanna see her smiley face? Don't thank me later!
That's seriously creepy!
So, who will save the situation? Sometimes it'll seems like the teacher is the cause of all but other times she will go out of her way to help them.. so, what are her true intentions?
No one knows and nobody seems to know her dark past except the old director of the school, indeed we'll find out about her past just in the last episodes.
Also prepare for some really scary and dramatic scenes..
I won't spoiler anything this time, just know that you'll change your mind about teacher Ma during the show, and will arrive to not only question but approve her somehow.

And here are the main ones. What can I say, I just loved Ko Hyun Jung as teacher Ma! And would you ever see children as talented as those? They are talented as hell! Seriously, watch out for them because I'm sure they'll do amazing things in the future!
Conclusion: At the beginning while watching the first episodes I was in a rage.. how could a teacher act like that? How could she be so mean!? Obliviously I cheered with all I had for the children fighting her. Then, I sorta changed my mind. Well, not completely, you'll find out that her motives were right but her methods are just too harsh. You'll see the point of view of all the children of the classroom and then, just at the very ending, teacher Ma's.
I loved this drama and finished it in a rush, also I'm hoping there will be a secon season! Think about it, a new class, a new school but always with Ma-teacher.That would be too awesome.
And last but not last the drama's main OST 'Green Rain' by the awesome group SHINee! Watch out for the MV, there are clips of some episodes, but most important of all the children are in it! Dancing and singing along SHINee (lucky them) and having fun! Most awesome MV ever!!
So, haven't you watched 'The Queen's Classroom' yet? ;)
