[SERIES] NIGHTMARE TEACHER; Be Careful Of Your Wish




Nightmare Teacher tells about a substitute teacher of Yosan High School. The homeroom teacher of class 2-3 got accident and there was a substitute teacher named Han Bong Gu. Since he appeared, one by one strange incidents happened. Students who entered the counseling room had a contract with Bong Gu to fulfill their wishes and sealed by their blood. The result of their wishes was out of their expectation.

Kim Seul Gi, an invisible student in the class, would like to be accepted by her friends.  She was given a friendship chart to start her friendship. She must draw the line between her friends whom she would like to be friends with. She also could draw cross in the line in order to cut the relationship. Once the line was gone, the relationship couldn’t be back or repaired. Being bullied student, it made her accept the contract. At first, she was glad that her friends started to talk with her, based on the line she drew. But, her friends started to fight over her and it made her frustrated.

Oh Ki Chul was the second boss in the school. He would like to be the boss but he always lost to the current boss, Kang Sang Tae. So, he signed the contract in order to win over Sang Tae. He must win so he could be the boss. If he lost the challenge, he would be back to the time before he challenged Sang Tae and he mustn’t have given up the challenge. After he won over Sang Tae, there was another challenge from other students. When he lost, he must have been back to fight against Sang Tae again. This was sickening and he couldn’t bear anymore. But, the contract had been signed and he couldn’t give up no matter what.

Ahn Si Yeon loved writing stories. Unfortunately, she didn’t write fiction only but lied in reality. Her friends didn’t believe her. When she was in the counseling room, she was given a diary to write what she wanted to be real. Whatever she wrote would come true. She got boyfriend exactly like what she always talked about. But, she made a mistake. The story that she wrote, must have been written carefully. She wrote about being stalked and the stalker really appeared.

Cheon Jae Soo was a second rank in the class. He always studied to get good marks and hoped that he could be the first rank. When he was cheating, Bong Gu knew it and called him to the counseling room. He gave a can drink to Jae Soo. The drink helped Jae Soo to memorize the lessons better but in return, he would lose his unimportant memories. He was allowed to drink only one can everyday but slowly he started to forget how many cans he had drunk and also he forgot about his identity.

Do Do Hee was the goddess in the class. She was a model for the school poster. But on the second year, the model was changed into the first year student. She thought that she was prettier but she lost to that student, even her boyfriend left her for the student. She suddenly got a beauty application which could change her face more beautiful. Her phone shouldn’t be broken nor had low battery. Otherwise, every changes made would be back into normal.

Kang Ye Rim was the class’ president. She had a boyfriend named Seo Sang Woo. She found it was strange that the class had so many empty seats. She felt like the seats were actually occupied but she couldn’t remember who they were. Slowly, she regained her memories. She started to remember that one by one of her classmates disappeared and their reasons. She went to met Han Bong Gu to ask who actually he was but he asked back who she truly was. Ye Rim didn’t understand what he was talking about. Bong Gu told that she was a good student but actually it was an act. He asked what her intention to know about her friends’ disappearance; if she really cared or just the responsibility of a class president. Then, she went into a mirror to look for the answer while another Ye Rim appeared outside the mirror.



Han Bong Gu is a symbol of devil. He knows our desire, greed, jealousy, anger, and loneliness and sees them as our weaknesses. He offers a way out to express or fulfill the feelings. But, we always forget that sometimes our desire leads to a dead end and we have no way back. From this drama, we can learn that we have to be careful for what we wish for. We also learn to accept who really we are so we won’t be jealous to anyone and push ourselves to better or even the best. Being happy starts from accepting ourselves and doing what we love.
