When an incident in the morning newspaper brings Hee Do together with Back Yi Jin (Nam Joo Hyuk), he seems to have a mentor. An adult who can be relied upon as well as a friend. It’s also possible that their relationship will be more than that. Na Hee Do’s motivation to pursue his dream is getting hotter and makes him try to transfer to the same school as Ko Yu Rim.
