King the Land Episode 9 will be released this weekend! The last episode ended with a rather surprising mishap. Will the false fire alarm cool down the tension between Gu Won and Sa Rang and end up in a happy disaster, fixing their problems? The upcoming episode of King the Land will witness Gu Won and Sa Rang having a heart-to-heart as they try to understand each other better.
The K-drama is, in fact, based on a webtoon by Rom Choi under the same name and released its first episode on June 17, 2023. The story of King the Land revolves around Cheon Sa Rang, a hard-working woman with a bright personality who’s known for her smile. She works at King Hotel, under the King franchise, and gives her all at her job, grateful for the opportunity.
She ends up crossing paths with Gu Won, the possible heir of the King Foundation and finds herself being a target of his bullying, as Gu Won believed Sa Rang’s smile was fake. He despised the way she smiled and immediately discriminated against her. But, as fate would have it, the two of them get closer and suddenly find themselves getting attracted to each other.
King the Land Episode 8 Recap (Spoilers!)
King The Land Episode 8 opened with a flashback to Gu Won and Sa Rang’s wedding when Gu Won had convinced the prince to give up on the dress he wore. The prince follows Gu Won around during the ceremony, and eventually, the two of them, along with Sa Rang, spend some time together.
Sa Rang asks Gu Won if he is jealous. Though he declined initially, he said he didn’t like her with other men either. Before the prince is about to leave, he decides to throw a party and reminds Gu Won and Sa Rang to come when they go back to their hotel.
Later, when Sa Rang is ready to begin her gift, she receives a dress from the Prince, which he wants her to wear to the party. Gu Won, too, is sent the attire of a waiter, which makes him angry. The two of them enter the venue, but while one is dressed up extravagantly, the other is dressed as a waiter.
Gu Won is told to serve Sa Rang and the prince at the party, so he reluctantly does as he is told as part of his job. However, he loses it when the prince brings out a ring to give to Sa Rang and tries to quickly stop the proposal. He tries to leave the place with Sa Rang, but she stops him and rejects the prince in a proper manner before leaving with Gu Won.
The three of them later have dinner together, as suggested by Sa Rang, and clear up the misunderstandings. The following day, Gu Won is finally able to stop worrying as the prince leaves the hotel. Later, Gu Won joins Sa Rang and her friends in the sauna as they gossip about marketing products and binging on the sauna food.
However, the friends quickly notice some tension between the two and try to suggest Gu Won speak his heart to Sa Rang before the problem gets out of hand. Agreeing to their advice, he decides to invite Sa Rang on a date and cooks dinner for the two of them.
The episode ends with a disaster as the heat from the pan alerts the fire extinguisher, and water starts drizzling on them and the food he cooked. Gu Won uses this opportunity in his favor and steals a kiss.
