Description:

School 2013 delivers a realistic portrayal of high school life, centering on Seungri High School, one of the worst-performing academic institutions in Seoul. In a desperate bid to improve low test scores, the school hires SeChan, played by Daniel Choi, a top Korean language teacher from a famous institute in Gangnam. Meanwhile, Class 2 remains at the absolute bottom of grade 2. In a surprising turn of events, NamSoon, played by Lee JongSuk, is elected as the class president for grade 2. This unexpected victory is secured through the support of JungHo, played by Kwak JungWook, a member of the school gang. Conflict arises during the school's opening presentation when SeChan suddenly appears, leaving the newly elected president NamSoon deeply embarrassed. School 2013 captures the intense academic pressure and complex student relationships at Seungri High.
