Story Until Now

So far, episode eight has been released, and the drama progresses to its main plot. The intriguing mystery has begun to unfold.

The episode starts with Jang Mi-Ho’s office. She gets a performance review, and before she can get a promotion, an anonymous complaint comes to ruin her image.

It even mentions Jang’s attempts to seduce her stepfather, to which she disagrees. Back at home, Ji Yul and Ha Yul want to play, so Jang calls Jin Ye, who ignores her and lies.

She takes the kids to the park, and upon returning, a neighbor complains about the noise. Jang is confused by the familiar appearance of the man, and before she can figure it out, he attacks her.

Later, Na Young offers to be friends with Jang to take on Jung together. In return, she wants pictures of her husband from the USB drive. Jang calls Do-mum to help her find the truth.

Jang and Jung Ah also have a confrontation about Yu Jin’s murder. With a lot going on, one of the major revelations is that Jung Ah’s brother is a drug addict.

He also gets into an accident because of them. Jung Ah has a breakdown as all her evil plans are coming to light, and even her reputation is at stake.

Moving towards the end of the episode, Na Young and Jang are seen discussing Yu Jin’s death. Young does not feel Jung Ah has murdered Jin. Meanwhile, the police arrive to arrest Jang for attempt-to-murder.

A video shows that Yu Jin’s husband claims that Jang and Yu Jin had plans to murder him. The episode ends, and the next one will probably focus on Jang’s interrogation and Yu Jin’s husband.
