Hi Everyone,
I am a University student doing currently my dissertation on how Korean tv drama influences potential tourists to visit Korea. I would be glad, if you could complete my questionnaire. It takes around 5 minutes to complete. Thank you and I appreciate it in advance.

This should be an interesting role for Yoon Kyun Sang. Also sounds like a suspenseful mystery thriller which could be exciting 🙂

It sounds like a good drama to watch. It’s nice to see Yoon Kyun Sang in a new project.

The drama is interesting. Indeed the opening scene captured me. I had to watch. I just wished the writer would provide a better reason for the courtroom violent outburst, than that a 20 year-old high schooler facing a 25 year jail-time (more after changing the plea to murder), couldn’t control his rage toward his lawyer, for disclosing to the court and therefore the world that his classmate girlfriend was turning tricks.

Always the nyc dramas are always shown late in the night . It affect their rating because few people are able to stay till that tym to watch . This drama is nyc but the rating is low due to the tym.

Just finished watching this drama. It was good. Interesting and suspenseful. Gripping.
Unbelievable that a school could be corrupted by irreponsible and morally bankrupt adults, such that consequently the school turned into a place where students do not even feel safe to be there. Terrible !
And there was a student there who turned out to be a psycho. I think his type of mental flaw is one of the most dangerous. Why so? Its cuz he appeared and behaved normal. But when looked and studied closer, he turned out to be coniniving, manipulative, exploitatative, abusive, a pathological liar, without a conscience, evil, intelligent, cunning and a control freak. And the other students were scared of him. He victimised them. (Does this sound like anyone familiar to you ??)
Spoiler alert :
I wont be a hypocrite here. I am actually happy that in the end, Yoon BeomJin the psycho student was killed off by an unknown killer with a lethal injection to the neck in a public place. He had escaped the court, but could not from the wrath of human justice. No tears here for YBJ. He has to be removed to keep society safe. 👏👏👏
Hahaha … a puzzle here for us to solve. Who killed YBJ ?
Just for the fun of it, let’s guess …. some viewers said most probably it could be Taera’s mom. She could have hired a killer. I think it could be HanSoo. He grew up with Sua. He understood and loved her the most. Killing her was like killing him. The pain of loss must have been terrible for him.
So who do you think the killer is ?
P/s Yoon BJ’s dad, politician Yoon YangGi who kept Sua prisoner as amistress was also a killer. Like father like son …
