In the clip, Oh enters an office and approaches a desk, unwrapping a small plaque that reads тАЬF**ker in charge of you f**king f**ks.тАЭ

She then sits down behind the desk, only for the chair to collapse moments later.

Ji-Yoon is faced with a unique set of challenges as the first woman to chair the department, and as one of the few staff members of colour at the university.тАЭ
