Initially, I started watching this drama because of the male lead ( Steven Zhang). He is a very promising actor, I dare to say. I had low expectations before I even press the play button. The cover indicated the low budget production and I could not find a trailer. Let's get to the point.
The story was mind-blowing! A plot twist upon the plot twist. Everything is connecting like pieces of puzzle in a very smooth and brilliant way that you cannot foresee, but it makes absolute sense. Most of all, i liked the fact that both the protagonists and antagonists are so clever, outsmarting each other every single time. No complaint when it comes to plot, just perfect. On top of that, their high intelligence makes you question their real motives.
The characters were the most enjoyable part of the journey. I saw character development and great character arcs in every protagonist. They were slow, gradual and epic. Even the "weaker" and more "idiotic" characters, that kept the comedy part alive, had an outstanding growth. They became the best versions of themselves. I do not wanna dive in the details, because I am afraid of giving spoilers.
The romances were also a sub-part of the series that keeps you on your toes. They are unfolding as slow as the personal characters' development, but they worth it. Both of the main ships were charming in their own way.
All in all, it is a relaxing drama, comedy, historical web series that intrigues you in every episode and at the same time offers a good laugh. The only thing I would say that annoyed me is the extremenly open ending. It hinted a season two, but nothing came up for now.

I liked Moorim School very much, actuallly i'm impressed. It shows all the aspects of an actual human being, it's not about the common fictional characters. They're wavering  about their feelings, their dark and bright side, their principles. Also, it shows the power of love, such as friendship,family,romance and conveys messages about trust and loyalty. As for the plot, it's quite clever, especially the main hidden story of the drama.  The daily interaction between students and teachers built a great story and the fantastic element was a nice touch .Needless to say that there were many plot twists. The first half part of Moorim School was mostly a teen drama and the second half more serious, i liked this contrast. Acting, cast, music were totally satisfying.
However, it's a bit confusing at the end. One character changed very abruptly and we didn't see the fall of some villains.
I strongly recommend this drama, if you'are looking for something real and touching. As for action and fantasy, sure there are a lot of scenes, but i think that's not the point of the story.
