The Greatest Teacher
Currently airing with rave reviews and record ratings on AVOD and SVOD and from the creators of the hit series and internationally adapted Mr. Hiiragi’s Homeroom, this series follows the story of a high school teacher who is mysteriously pushed off the school balcony after graduation ceremony. The last thing she sees is the sleeve of someone’s school uniform, but the next minute she suddenly finds herself rebooted back one year ago in her homeroom class on the first day of school---she has time lapsed. In front of her students smiling and chatting as if nothing has occurred. With 30 suspects and only a fleeting glimpse of a uniform sleeve, the rebooted and determined teacher embarks on a relentless journey to unveil the truth and make a difference this time, keeping viewers captivated in this gripping suspense drama.

Suspects on the Set
Suspects on the Set is a mystery murder gameshow with a unique mix of scripted crime drama elements. Set in a murder site, actors are summoned to play a role in a mystery drama, each given basic information about the character they play. Their mission is to investigate on the spot by improvising their characters, while one of them is playing the role of a murderer, trying to hide their real identity. They must improvise until the culprit is revealed, and there is also a cast commentary segment in the end where actors look back and reveal their intentions. Foreshadows are created by the subtle comments and actions of the actors, making it worthwhile to watch the show repeatedly.
