Eun-Kang sought to mislead him, causing him to confess to all of his criminal activities. Everything he said has been recorded and could be used against him in the future.

Couple Chemistry

Ki Han-Na opened Dae-Il’s files he shared with her while remembering about her good moments with him through their prior messages. She came upon a shady video while browsing and was shocked to learn that high-ranking officials are supporting prostitution. She showed it to the rest of the team right away. They suspected Dae-Il was chased down by the man on the video, which led to his death.

Professor Cha was also told about the clip. He instructed the students to keep the video private until they devised a clear plan to prosecute the officials involved.

Kim Tak read his late brother’s letter and received a message from Wi Seung-Hyun, encouraging him to return to join the squad in arresting Jo Han-Sol. Kim-Tak surprised his friends late at night while planning their next move. He also took the opportunity to apologize to Shin Ah-Ri about his sudden departure. He expressed his sincere feelings that he wanted her back in his life. Seung-Hyun and Eun-Kang exchanged kisses and pleasant moments.

Supporting Character

Jo Han-Sol offered Ki Han-Na a large sum of money in exchange for spying on Eun-Kang and Wi Seung-Hyun on the KNPU campus. She alerted her friends about the news and decided to become a double agent in the hopes of catching Han-Sol. Han-Na accepted the opportunity without telling Han-Sol that she still trusted her friends.  Seung-Hyun, Kim-Tak, Shin Ah-Ri, Ju-Young, and Bum-Ju were battling Han-Sol’s guard to catch him while Ha-Na and Eun-Kang were dealing with him inside his hideout.

Finally, at the parking lot, Wi Seung-Hyun had a one-on-one brawl with Jo Han-Sol. Kim-Tak attempted to fight Han-Sol as well, but he passed out. Fortunately, his friend Seung-Hyun arrived and did everything he could to get the culprit into his possession. Shin Ah-Ri received a call from Professor Cha in the middle of the fight, chastising him for their risky plan. Professor Cha, however, used his faith in his students to phone the cops and send them to the kids’ location, where they were assisted in the capture of Jo Han-Sol. Seung- Hyun’s father walked over after he defeated Han-Sol and brought him the handcuffs, which he placed on Jo Han-Sol’s hand. Wi Gi-Yong was pleased with his son when he became a virtuous police officer alongside his comrades, even though he was prepared to face the repercussions for his role in the Sinyu Club.

Moments that stay

Wi Seung-Hyun, Eun-Kang, Kim-Tak, Han-Na, Shin Ah-Ri, Ju-Young, and Bum-Ju excelled in university and gained honors for solving a major case after Jo Han-Sol was imprisoned.
