The Idol I episode 3 left fans with new revelations and a big cliffhanger. The episode started with Se Na searching for Ra-Ik and finally finding him through a police call. Since Ra-Ik didn't want to go to his own house, she decided to bring him to her house. After he gets up and finds Se Na, the situation becomes awkward, and he leaves her house.

Se Na decides to meet Ra-Ik's bandmates and his manager to gather more information. However, when she asks Jae-Hee, one of his bandmates, about the fight that took place before the concert, he lashes out at her for helping criminals and also tells her that Ra-Ik hit him.

Through, when Se Na asks Ra-Ik about the same, he tells her that it wasn't serious. Se Na also meets Ra-Ik's mother, who, instead of helping her, asks for money, saying reporters are paying her a hefty amount. Se Na warns her that she will file criminal charges against her if she finds her giving any further interviews.

Se Na and her investigator friend soon find Ra-Ik's location, and Se Na assures Ra-Ik that she will stay by his side. Ra-Ik, trusting her, reveals how he started singing and the story of meeting Woo Seong after he joined the management company. Later, they both attend Woo Seong's funeral.

Kwak Byung-gyun, on the other hand, investigates Woo Seong's autopsy report and learns that he died from a clean stab between his ribs that pierced his heart. However, he is puzzled about how Ra-Ik could have carried out the attack since he was drunk on the night of the murder.

They also discover CCTV footage showing Ra-Ik entering the liquor shop from one side but leaving from another, instead of following the usual path he should have taken. This raises further questions and increases their suspicion about his movements that night. Ra-Ik, however, explains that he couldn't find exactly what he was looking for, which is why he left the shop.

Later, when investigating, Kwak's team finds the video where Ra-Ik is seen meeting a woman who was there to kill her. Though how she was planning to kill her wasn't revealed in Episode 3.


What to expect from Idol I episode 4?

Idol I episode 4 will most likely answer how the woman was trying to kill Ra-Ik and what happened after they met on the mountain trail. On the other hand, the closeness between Ra-Ik and Se Na seems to increase after he saves her on the road by pulling her towards him when she was about to get hit by a vehicle. Ra-Ik also told Se Na in episode 3 that he plans to live with her in her house for a while.

However, by the end of the episode, viewers see the entry of the same woman who tried killing Ra-Ik, with the possibility that the creators will focus on their relationship in the upcoming episode.
