==Notes==
# "School 2021" takes over [[KBS|KBS2]]'s Wed. & Thur. 21:30 time slot previously occupied by "[[Dali and Cocky Prince]]" and followed by "[[Love All Play]]" on April 20, 2022.
# Based on novel "Oh, Naui Namjadeul!" by Lee Hyun (published May 20, 2011 by Munhak Dongne).
# Early working title was "Oh, Naui Namjadeul" ("Oh, My Men").
# [[Ahn Seo-Hyun (2004)|Ahn Seo-Hyun]] was first offered the lead female role, but could not come to an agreement with production company SR Pictures.
# [[Kim Sae-Ron]] was offered the lead female role, but declined.
# Ep.1 air date was originally scheduled to air November 17, 2021, but was changed to November 24, 2021. An extra tested positive for COVID-19 on November 13, 2021, causing all staff and cast to be given tests. Actor [[Kim Yo-Han]] tested positive, hence the delay in broadcasting ep.1.
