Suspects

Each character stands out with unique personality traits that set them apart.

This show featured many suspects, and it proved difficult to ascertain who killed Professor Seo Byeong Joo. At first, Yang Jong Hoon (Kim Myung-min), an attorney turned professor with a personal grudge against Seo Byeong Joo, seemed likely. Yet as more information became known throughout the series revealing him to be an abusive and manipulative individual whose use of law to further their personal agenda only further clouded things further.

Investigation quickly broadened its focus. Han Joon-hwi (Kim Bum), as the student prosecutor at Han Gwon University was suspected due to his romantic interest for Professor Seo’s nephew; also suspect was Lee Man-ho, a new chauffeur at Han Gwon who was convicted for child sexual abuse but placed under house arrest across from Kang Sol A’s (Ryu Hye Young) dormitory and placed a hidden camera inside her room to spy on her.

Episode 14 took us back five months before the incident to when Professor Seo Ji-hoon was riding in a car with Professor Lee Soon-sik (deceased), when they both called one another but neither answered their phones; Seo called Ji-hoon multiple times but neither picked up, with Ji-hoon eventually admitting he was too drunk at that moment to answer and wanted revenge against Lee Soon-sik’s death.

He threatened to reveal Assemblyman Go’s corruption circle, but police failed to believe him and was later attacked and stabbed by Ki Du-seong, who claimed self-defense.

Relatives

Another student, Hwi-joon, had an unstable background: his father lost their toy factory, he experienced dating violence, he secretly recorded coworkers’ conversations without their permission, which eventually resulted in charges of extortion but the students helped him win his case.

Kang Sol A, born to a working class mother, attended law school thanks to a scholarship. While she feels she deserves some leniency from her professor, several times he made comments about how lazy or inattentive she was in studying hard enough. Kang was fearful he might kick her out; but that did not happen.
