Plot:My Thoughts:
OK... for my tastes... this is much more like it! Yes... in the beginning Barbara is still all scared and crying... but she is quickly out of that in this version! This is the way I want to see Barbara! Not to mention that I am a huge fan of Tony Todd. Between those 2 things... it really feels like this remake was made catered to me. As much as I love the original... and I do love the original!.. I have to say in this case I definitely prefer the remake! How often can someone say that?

Plot:
Since a young and gorgeous primary school teacher, Mi-ok's work ethic is lousy, and her attitude towards managing her school matters is draconian, her colleagues and students do not get along with her at all. A new semester is coming up soon, and student, Mi-nam, just gets transferred to Mi-ok's primary school. Being a new student at the school, Mi-nam is isolated by her classmates. She thinks that she can turn to Mi-ok whenever she needs to share with someone, but Mi-ok ignores her and gives her the cold shoulder. On the contrary, Mi-ok treats the new arts teacher, Sang-min differently and cares about him a lot. Therefore, Mi-nam and Mi-ok become hostile and rude to each other. What's more, Mi-nam plans to unmask Mi-ok's bad behaviour and characters in front of Sang-min......

Extras:


Surprisingly heart-felt movie. I expected a simple movie about some funny rivalry between teacher and student. But it dealt with more than that. It deals with the personal issues of both and why the rivalry goes as far as it did.
