Teachers’ Day in South Korea began in Seoul in 1963, when a group of young Red Cross members began visiting sick former teachers in hospitals. In Mexico, I do not know if in other countries as well, the day is celebrated every May 15. So, let’s take a look at some of the teachers who have appeared in popular K-Dramas that are universally loved:
1.School 2013 (Jang Na Ra and Choi Daniel)
The drama revolves around Jung In Jae (Jang Na Ra) and Kang Sae-chan (Choi Daniel), who are professors whose philosophies apparently disagree. Together, they manage Victory High’s toughest class; confronting bullies, underachieving students, and demanding parents, while helping students overcome their problems. The teacher duo was definitely the highlight of the drama. From taking care of the needs of their students to fighting for their rights when they see injustice, these two did everything for the well-being of their students. They showed the problems and choices that teachers make all the time, giving us a glimpse into how a school works.
2.True Beauty (Oh Eui Shik)
Oh Eui Shik He played the role of Han Joon Woo, a class 2-5 homeroom teacher and literature teacher at Saebom High School. Even though he had a small role, he managed to make an impact by being a warm-hearted and caring teacher. His comedic timing is honestly iconic.
3. Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo (Jang Young Nam and Choi Moo Sung)
Jang Young Nam and Choi Moo Sung are coaches of the weightlifting team and they did a great job as coaches who really care about their athletes and really understand their students and their problems very well. They strive to always do the right thing for their children.
4. Angry Mom (Ji Hyung Woo)
Ji Hyun Woo He plays the role of Park No Ah, an optimistic and naive teacher who is unaware of the politics related to the education system and sees the world with innocent eyes. He can do anything and everything for the welfare of his students, as he sees them as his own children. Even Jo Kang Ja (Kim Hee-sun) refers to it as the hothouse plant that has never faced the world hard. After Yi Kyung’s death (Yoon Ye Joo), change and help Jo Kang Ja unearth the dark secrets of Myungsung High.
5. Just Dance, (Kim Gab Soo)
Kim Gab Soo plays Professor Lee Kyu Ho, his students seek to escape from an ordinary and boring life that doesn’t seem to offer them many options. But this man who has played many villains, here becomes someone who finds the brilliance that his young students still possess, awakens hope in them and helps them channel their energy so that they find the strength they need to pursue their dreams.
6. Dr. Romantic Teacher Kim (Han Seok-kyu)
This drama has two seasons, but I liked the first one the most where we met Doctor Boo Yong Joo (Professor Kim). Someone who has learned to make their own path to personal success and fulfillment. After being expelled from a large hospital where he intended to follow the same path as others, he is sent to a hospital on the outskirts of Seoul and there his abilities and the lack of elements and facilities bring out the best in him and those under his care. supervision. He becomes the inspiration that other young doctors need to decide which path they want to follow – the one everyone wants towards financial success or discover in themselves if they have the courage and strength to become a true doctor who saves the lives of who trust them? His teaching methods are unorthodox but very effective, he is one of those teachers whose lessons you never forget.
Kim Soo Hyun in “My Love from Another Star” and Lee Jong Suk in “Romance is a Bonus Book” Of course several of our oppas become teachers, usually college students, in some scenes of their Kdramas, but that’s not the job of their characters, that’s why I don’t list them. Among them I can remember Kim Soo-hyun in “My Love from Another Star«; Lee Jong Suk in “Romance is a Bonus Book» or more recently Jang Ki Young in “My Roomate is a Gumiho” Y Lee Do-hyun in “melancholia«.
