Jeong Kyung-ho suggested Noh Yun-seo's individual classes to Jeon Do-yeon.
In the tvN Saturday-Sunday drama 'One-shot Scandal' that aired on the 22nd, Nam Haeng-seon (played by Jeon Do-yeon) and Choi Chi-yeol (played by Jung Kyung-ho) were shown caring about each other.
On this day's broadcast, the sight of Nam Haeng-seon and Choi Chi-yeol meeting again after their surprise drunken confession the night before raised the curiosity of the viewers. Choi Chi-yeol, who heard Nam Haeng-seon's surprising drunken confession, could not hold back the laughter that crept up on him right before he fell asleep.
The next day, Choi Chi-yeol, who went straight to the national side dish store, made a playful comment to Nam Haeng-seon, who was embarrassed by the memory of the previous day, saying, "You know what I really like, this stewed burdock." The relationship between the two, who had already become closer, created a sense of warmth. The Namhaeng Line has become Choi Chi-yeol’s smile button. From the beginning, curiosity was aroused as to how the relationship between the two would develop in the future.
The entrance exam season has come to an end with the start of the All Care class. Nam Haeng-seon attended the All Care class parents’ meeting. The friendly atmosphere continued for a while as the mothers shared curriculum information with each other, but the atmosphere took a turn with the belated appearance of Lee Seon-jae's mother, Jang Seo-jin (played by Jang Young-nam). A strange tension began to develop between Su-ah's mother Jo Soo-hee (played by Kim Seon-young) and Seon-jae's mother. In the end, Su-a's mother exploded due to Lee Seon-jae's mother's seemingly ignoring attitude, and Nam Haeng-seon, who tried to stop her, was accidentally hit in the face instead. It was a moment that predicted a difficult and thorny path for college entrance exams.
Nam Haeng-seon's next honor was Nam Hae-i (played by Noh Yoon-seo), who proudly received a top grade in mathematics on the final exam after listening to Choi Chi-yeol's lecture. Nam Hae-i thought that her mother, who had abandoned her, might see her if she ranked first in the nation in the college entrance exam and was featured on the news. The sight of Nam Haeng-seon trying to hold back tears after hearing those words was heartbreaking. However, there were those who kept Nam Hae-i in check after setting such a clear goal.
Bang Bang-ah (played by Kang Na-eon), who sees Hae-i as a thorn in his side, Su-a's mother who tries to listen to her daughter's wishes, Young-min's mother (played by Choi Hee-jin) who pushes Nam Hae-i out and tries to put her son Young-min (played by Yoo Jun) in an all-care class, and her son Seon-jae plays Hae-yi. Seon-jae's mother, who is anxious about being close to her, and the director of The Pride Academy (Heo Jeong-do), who cannot ignore the wishes of Su-a's mother, who is also an influencer on the parent community SkyMomJunnet. Thanks to their combined efforts, Hae-i's acceptance into the all-care class was eventually overturned and he was eliminated, and Haeng-seon couldn't help but be angry at the news.
Nam Haeng-seon, who ran to the academy first, argued point by point against the academy's position that only students who had taken all of the instructor's classes could enter the all-care class, but nothing changed. In the meantime, Nam Haeng-seon's anger rose again at the words of Su-a's mother, who deliberately came to the store and asked him to leave the all-care parent group chat room immediately. This time, I requested a meeting with the academy director, but it was not accepted, and I ended up staging a one-person protest in front of the academy with a loudspeaker. The director, who saw this, tried to hurriedly leave the place, but fell after colliding with a cart full of luggage, which left him unable to even have a proper conversation.
Using this incident as an excuse, the director placed Nam Hae-i on the blacklist, and Kyeol-kyeol, who could not leave Nam Haeng-seon unaware of this, reported that Hae-i was no longer able to take his classes. The southbound line was disappointed by this. From then on, a notice was put up in front of the side dish store saying that it would not sell to anyone associated with The Pride Academy, and Choi Chi-yeol, who saw this, could no longer visit the national side dish store.
However, Choi Chi-yeol is already firmly addicted to the taste of Nam Haeng-seon. As if he was suffering from withdrawal from the national side dish store, his eating disorder reappeared, and his mood and physical condition were all messed up. Choi Chi-yeol, whose lecture tension had dropped to its lowest point and was unable to even throw his signature kick properly, even showed signs that the graph filling the blackboard looked like food from the southbound line. Choi Chi-yeol, who went to get counseling, hurriedly headed to a side dish store as if he had made up his mind when the doctor said, "I think the discomfort in my mind is greater. I feel guilty for not being able to correct the injustice."
Choi Chi-yeol made an offer he couldn't refuse to Nam Haeng-seon, whom he met again after a long time. “Let’s take a separate class with me. Individually,” he said, indicating that he would teach a class just for Nam Hae-i. Nam Haeng-seon, who was confused by this for a moment, tried to grab his outstretched hand, but then Choi Chi-yeol meaningfully said, "There is a condition instead," which stimulated curiosity.
As the iron ball incident occurred, tensions also reached their peak. A scene was depicted where Youngmin, who took Namhae's place and entered the all-care class, fell from the building while being hit with a metal ball and being chased. Attention is focused on what the mysterious iron ball really is.
