* BothSidesHaveAPoint: The case in "The Blue Night of Jeju." The temple charging a toll for use of the road going through their preserve isn't really fair, even if the toll itself is pretty cheap, as the road itself is technically public, and there's no way for someone who isn't willing to pay to legally turn around and take a different route, thus putting people in a position of either committing a traffic violation, or coughing up the money. On the other hand, the temple ''badly'' needs the income, and the road ''does'' go through their private property. When the team meets the monks living there, it's obvious that they feel a bit gross about charging a toll, but don't see many other options in order to keep the place open, and the temple itself is a beautiful and important religious site. Young-woo is at a loss as to what is the "right" thing.

* CramSchool: Episode 9 centers on an elite and very involved academy that promises to set students up for success and pushes them to get stellar grades, but does so by keeping them until ten at night, not letting them have breaks or snacks, and only allowing two bathroom breaks per day. Oh, and at least some of the students are ten years old at the most. Young-woo and her colleagues are appalled by the way the children are treated.
