ScarletWhimsy 2,203 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Please recommend me some enjoyable dramas (Korean or Japanese) that are based in school. I've watched School 2013 and 2015, so something other than these two please! <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

masketta 2,783 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Angry Mom!!! plot: Jo Kang-ja was once legendary for being the toughest, most feared troublemaker at her Busan high school. When she gets pregnant in her late teens, she drops out of school and tries to become a responsible mother to her daughter, Oh Ah-ran. Fast-forward to the present, and Kang-ja is now in her thirties and Ah-ran is a teenager. The two have a contentious relationship, with Ah-ran ashamed of her quick-tempered, foul-mouthed, sashimi knife-wielding mother for the latter's unrefined ajumma manners.When Ah-ran befriends the class outcast, it makes her the target of the school bullies who make her life hell; yet she's too proud to tell her mother what's happening. When Kang-ja finds out that her daughter is getting bullied, she decides to take matters into her own hands. Unbeknownst to Ah-ran, she enrolls in her daughter's high school as an undercover student with the false name "Jo Bang-wool" to teach those bullies a lesson. But, she learns that there are bigger, darker problems within the educational system, and Kang-ja makes it her mission to put a stop to the school violence, with the help of Ah-ran and naive, idealistic homeroom teacher Park No-ah.

셔누<3 8 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Japanese dramas are the best when it comes to a school genre tbh. I recommend LIFE(highly recommended), Kazoku Game(i'm not sure it's a school genre but it is about a tutor tutoring a kid who refuses to attend school and later that tutor is just..literally destoryed that kid's family), Suzuki Sensei, Sayonara Ozu sensei. These dramas are high recommended and will give you this thriller feeling..very mysterious and great acting overall. I'm not a big fan of K-dramas but if I have to choose: Reply series, Jungle Fish 2, White Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iluvuhater 1,124 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Boys Over Flowers/ Hana Yori Dango Ao Haru Ride- movie Kinkyori Renai- movie Sukitte Li Na Yo- movie L DK- movie Tenshi no Koi (has many highschool scenes)- movie Bokura ga Ita-movie has a part 2 as well Goong (Princess Hours) Koizora (you will cry a river, i cry everytime i see this. plus, you have the drama and movie) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALICO CAT 8,999 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 shut up flower boyband! I can hear your voice. The main character is a highschool student and it's a romantic comedy but it's not a school romance, if that makes sense. But it's still really good! Dont watch Boys Over flowers, it's awful L DK The manga is fine but i couldnt watch the live action because it was so cringe worthy (and the visuals were lacking, im shallow lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScarletWhimsy 2,203 Posted August 30, 2015 Author Share Posted August 30, 2015 Koizora (you will cry a river, i cry everytime i see this. plus, you have the drama and movie) Oh my God, that movie made me cry BUCKETS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially the bolded one. Possibly my fave school drama of ALL TIME. Japanese dramas are the best when it comes to a school genre tbh.

whitedove 1,849 Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 As for the most recent one, I highly recommend Gomen ne Seishun: http://asianwiki.com/Saving_My_Stupid_Youth Do you like sports-related school dramas? Then watch Rookies and H2. And yes for LIFE, highly recommended! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
