The bustling hallway of Junyeong High School is filled with students going about their day. Ga Young, flanked by her group of friends, confronts Yeji.
Ga Young: (accusingly) Yeji, where's my ring? I know you took it!
Yeji, caught off guard, looks perplexed.
Yeji: (defensively) What? No, I didn't take your ring, Ga Young. Why would I?
Ga Young, fueled by anger, intensifies her accusations.
Ga Young: (raising her voice) Everyone, she's a thief! Yeji stole my ring!
The surrounding students start whispering, eyes fixated on the unfolding drama.
In the classroom, Yeji tries to defend herself against the growing rumors.
Yeji: (assertive) I didn't steal anything! Ga Young, you're making a huge mistake.
Her classmates, however, remain skeptical, casting doubtful glances at Yeji.
Determined to clear her name, Yeji decides to take matters into her own hands. She sneaks into the CCTV room to collect evidence that could prove her innocence.
Yeji, alone in the dimly lit room, carefully reviews the footage, hoping to find a clue that could vindicate her. The tension rises as she spots an important detail.
As Yeji tries to leave the CCTV room, Ga Young, with a triumphant smirk, catches her.
Ga Young: (accusingly) "Caught red-handed, Yeji! Sneaking around to cover your tracks?"
Yeji: (pleading) "No, Ga Young! Look at this footage. It wasn't me!"
Ga Young, however, remains unfazed and frames Yeji for trespassing.
Ga Young: (smirking) "You're only making things worse for yourself. Everyone will know what a thief you are."
Summoned to the principal's office, Yeji faces the stern expressions of Principal and Head Teacher, Mr. Do Kyung Chul.
MR. Im Il sung : (stern) "Yeji, breaking into rooms and stealing? This is unacceptable behavior."
Mr. Do Kyung Chul: (disappointed) "You're jeopardizing the reputation of this school, young lady."
Yeji struggles to make them understand, but her pleas fall on deaf ears.
The situation escalates as Yeji finds herself at the police station, attempting to explain her side.
Police Officer: (serious) "Theft and breaking and entering are serious allegations, Miss Kang. You'll have to face the consequences."
Yeji, overwhelmed and frustrated, fights against the mounting accusations.
The police station's cold, sterile atmosphere adds to the weight on Yeji's shoulders. She sits alone, the room echoing with the hushed whispers of officers.
Ga Young, wearing a victorious grin, observes from a distance as Park Do Jin glances at Yeji with disappointment.
Ga Young: (whispering to her friends) "Looks like our little thief is getting what she deserves."
The door creaks open, drawing everyone's attention. Kim Joon Ho strides in with purpose, his detective instincts sharpened.
Kim Joon Ho: (firmly) "I'd like to speak with Officer Park about Miss Kang Yeji's case."
Officer Park, recognizing Joon Ho, leads him to the side for a private conversation.
Officer Park: (whispering) "What's your involvement in this, joon ho?"
