From December 16, 2019 until February 4, 2020, it aired on tvN on Mondays and Tuesdays. The arrangement between Netflix and CJ ENM, the parent company of tvN, didn't go into force until 2020, which is one of the reasons why the series didn't premiere on Netflix.
It has been confirmed that on Tuesday, April 5th, 2022, all 16 episodes of Black Dog: Being a Teacher will be available to stream on Netflix. Each episode has an estimated run time of 75 minutes.
