“…we can’t protect anyone by breaking laws, and that running away doesn’t excuse our wrongdoings.”

Finally, Kang Sun Ho and Detective Yoo Dong Man found the leader of the illegal gambling site, Professor Seo Sang Hak. With the recent events that happened because of their operation, he finally decided to turn himself and confess. 

On the other hand, Oh Kang Hee gave Kang Sun Ho another chance and waited for him. Also, because of the consequences Sun Ho faced while investigating the case, he left KNPU to reflect and gather his thoughts.

With his hacking skills, he secretly puts down all the illegal gambling sites. Though he made wrong decisions, he gave himself another chance to change his life and atone by risking his life to end the case. 

Kang Sun Ho’s batchmates also graduated full of passion and love from their loved ones. Sun Ho then enrolled again at KNPU — this time, he has a clearer reason to fulfill his dreams and enjoy life.

Police University  Series Peak Points + Musings

Surprising And Exhilarating Plot Twists

Since Police University‘s genre focuses more on mysteries, I commend the series for formulating a thrilling and unpredictable story. I enjoyed watching the series because it let the audience also investigate the case with simple clues. 

At every end of the episode, the series continuously surprises the audience with many plot twists. Since Detective Yoo Dong Man’s partner, Park Cheol Jin, it’s hard to guess the possible culprits. 

Then again, Director Yoo Kwan Mo did incorporate some of the elements from Harry Potter and Sherlock Holmes into the series. Also, Police University is unique from other mystery dramas in how the story pivots and how the actors portrayed their roles.

Hearty Lessons About Life And Justice

Apart from having unique plot twists, the series also imparts refreshing lessons that other drama sensationalizes. Kang Sun Ho’s character development is one of the notable elements in the story. 

With Professor Yoo Dong Man’s lesson that he shares from his experiences, Kang Sun Ho was able to apply it to his studies and investigation. 

One of the lessons that I truly appreciate from Professor Yoo Dong Man is to bravely admit our mistakes. It takes a lot of courage to be honest and correct ourselves. 

Kang Sun Ho, Professors Choi and Seo, Park Cheol Jin, and more bravely admitted their crimes. Their characters also tell that the truth always surfaces at the right time and the right moment. 

Acknowledging our mistakes does not only help us but also helps others that are affected by our actions. Furthermore, showing and giving fair respect to both the culprit and victim will surely spread lawful justice to everyone. 

Defining What A True Partner Is

May it be friends, family members, love, or even hobbies, the series proves the idiom; “two heads are better than one.” Kang Sun Ho and Detective Yoo Dong Man’s brotherly chemistry prove that having a true partner is where you trust your life with them. 

With the challenges they faced, they never turned their backs and assisted each other of they are needed. A true partner does not also tolerate our wrongdoings. 

Oh Kang Hee showed how hard it is to accept our loved ones breaking the law. However, she believed and trusted her mother and Sun Ho that they will pay for their mistakes.

Having someone who corrects us is the best partner we could have. Through Kang Sun Ho’s family and newfound friends, he was able to use his talent to do good and great things. 

Furthermore, a true partner helps us to flourish. Even though we all make mistakes, a partner encourages us to continue and choose the decisions that are honorable and virtuous.

Don’t miss out on the thrilling and heartwarming adventure inside the Police University on Viu!
