OK, I decided to watch this show. I like it so far - don't I always? But the first episode was pretty boring, imo.

The show doesn't pick up and settle into a rhythm until the third or fourth episode. I'm watching episode 5.

The pluses of the show are Park Min Young (she's purrdy); the story isn't typical, or at least it doesn't develop in a typical way; something about the cinematography is different, it's more ambient than usual. Also, none of the secondary characters seem truly secondary. But I'm only on episode 5.

The hardcoded English subs aren't...very good. But they're tolerable.

Anyway, I recommend this show.

Thanks for your input about the subs and for including some captions containing subs.

"Don't you hear"
"Learn is the way to learn to find an exam"
"Do your class play this"

OMG! WTF does all that mean? Trying to decipher this may be more difficult than understanding hangul.

The subs are coherent, and they do help, better than babblefish. They're just not grammatically, uh, rigorous.

Check out these caps for a laugh:

This show is broadcast locally as I'm Your Teacher by KBS-LA. It has better English subtitles. The only problem is that is heavily edited. Anyway, I have up on Veoh.com, http://www.veoh.com/series/iamyourteacher ... Also, it's not HDTV.

I can have put it here on torrent, if there is enough request for it.

So who did the hardsubs? I hope it's not JOJO or anyone reading this thread, since it's a bit disrespectful even though I agree with what you guys said ;)

Still, what a pity there aren't any fansubs for it.

The subs are actually not that bad. Context helps a lot with understanding them despite the grammar problems, and I much prefer an unedited drama with mediocre subs than a heavily-edited one with good subs. But that's just me.

I wish a group would pick this up soon because the drama is really good and deserves attention..
Also, no offense or anything to the subber who did the hardsubs for the drama but I agree with what some of the guys said about the quality.. =(

This drama was good but the ending was rather sad. It was a bit disappointing actually^^
