Trigger warning that this one's about school violence.
Based on a very popular webtoon, our story is about Shi Eun (Park Ji Hoon), who's a model student, and who uses his smarts to fight against violence, because he's a weak fighter.

I actually really like the vibe of this new trailer for Love In Contract; it's got a slight touch of reflectiveness about it, which is a nice balance to the hijinks of the previous trailer.
Fingers crossed that this one will really be as good as my gut is saying it is, so that we can cover it here on Patreon. đ
Looks like our titular Queen is going to be very.. unconventional. I mean, just look at the way she literally scowls while running through the palace - and loses a shoe in the process! đ
