Lee Jun-ho, a 'cheeky student' who put all his effort into a prestigious university, suddenly appears one day and brings about an unexpected departure from his reality. Wi Ha-jun plays Lee Jun-ho, a new instructor who returns after 10 years and stirs the heart of teacher Seo Hye-jin.

And after reading unfamiliar emotions from teacher Seo Hye-jin, who vehemently opposed this, he begins to go straight ahead.

While the priest's close-up poster that was released earlier created a buzz, the character teaser video released on this day stimulates excitement by showing the emotions of Seo Hye-jin and Lee Jun-ho, who are in the midst of a change in their relationship. The character teaser video, which tells the story of Seo Hye-jin, a star Korean language teacher in Daechi-dong, begins with an unexpected intruder facing an unexpected intruder in her life without variables. He is Lee Jun-ho, Daechi-dong's enemy who was his student 10 years ago. Lee Jun-ho, who stands in front of Seo Hye-jin as a teacher rather than a student, quickly begins to stir up Seo Hye-jin's daily life. Seo Hye-jin, who was experiencing a storm of emotions for a moment, tried to ignore her feelings, saying, "I don't like being unpredictable," but eventually faced a moment of self-awareness, saying, "How can you not like Junho? Please tell me if there is a way."

To Seo Hye-jin, who says, "I care about you," she boldly makes a provocation by saying, "Aren't you crossing the line?" and even makes a heart-rending confession, saying, "Please tell me how you really feel. I need a teacher." The two people suddenly became a problem they wanted to solve for each other. Expectations are high as to what the answer to this strange relationship will be.
