Then, when Ye-rim awakens, she contemplates about the students being trapped in the classroom with their imaginations running wild, then tells Sang-woo that she feels like she just woke up from a nightmare but can't remember what was the nightmare. In the mirror dimension, she meets with her younger self who shows her that if she doesn't get out of the mirror dimension, the clone will replace her, then Han Bong-gu tells her that the "mirror dimension" is just a nightmare of her, then the two Ye-rims face-off and Han Bong-gu returns everything back to normal, while saying that the counseling is over. Afterwards, Ye-rim gets into the counseling room with Han Bong-gu, after getting caught investigating the special classroom, then Ye-rim gets into the "mirror dimension" (where the other classmates gone), then in the real dimension she's replaced with her other reckless, and more sociable self who "visited" her before getting caught by Han Bong-gu. Then the two get into the counseling room with a fellow teacher and the fellow teacher asks them to delete the gossip website, which they accept, then Han Bong-gu tells them to write apology letters for making the website. In the end, Ye-rim and Sang-woo get a text message about someone (Han Bong-gu) who knows where are the missing classmates are located: a special classroom, where the missing classmates look at them very strangely. Ye-rim and Sang-woo start investigating the case and Sang-woo takes pictures about the clues and launch a gossip website about the investigation. Class president Ye-Rim notices the disappearance of her classmates while her friend Sang-woo and the rest of the class don't have a clue about their disappearance. ĭespite Han Bong-gu is seemingly well known to all other teachers, he is not on any staff list and no one knows the real identity of the mysterious teacher.ĭuring the series, strange events happen to several students in the classes after Han Bong-gu takes them to the counseling room, offering them to fulfill their deepest desires by signing a blood contract with them and giving them an enchanted item, but none of the students actually read what is the contract they sign, and they're late when they realize what was the price of their desires and they disappear into the void. Overall Rating – 7.5/10.After the homeroom teacher in Yosan High School gets hospitalized due to an accident, a new substitute teacher, Han Bong-gu replaces him in the second and third classes. Just a quick and simple little exploratory adventure into a dark fairy tale that’s a short and pleasant way to pass the time. And Kim So-Hyun was wonderful as his antagonist, the bright student who plays it safe. Uhm Ki-Joon was delightful as the unassuming face of evil (or was he?). This show examines the balance between good and evil, and how both sides of the coin are apart of us all. And kids can also be kind, and watch each others backs and do the right thing and step up when needed. That’s just the way things are, they shrug. Just like a prison system, a high school has its own rules and regulations and inmate behaviors that are common and often “overlooked” by adults and even other kids. Nightmare Teacher was exactly what it said it was going to be and delivered fun little examinations into the darker side of young adulthood.
One after the other, they start to disappear, trapped in a nightmare of their own making.
The kids start out with good intentions, but greed and revenge and personal gain always get the best of them… and things go sour. This show stays pretty even layered in its thin but satisfying story about a classroom of high school students who end up with a new teacher… who grants them their wishes and watches as they sabotage themselves with their desires. You won’t get the usual character development, home life, tropes and heightened emotions generally found in a Korean drama. It also reminded me of an anime in that it was fairly simplistic. What a fun little slice of a dark morality play! This show reminds of me of an anime, in a way, as anime’s have always been more eager to jump into the horror genre. Review – Nightmare High / Nightmare Teacher
