Without any proof of his guilt, Yoo-jung is obliged to let Hyun-soo go. I love how everyone has their own reasons for self-blame, because it really drove in how it's not anyone's fault, especially not Bong-hee's and not Ji-wook's. Ji Chang-wook plays as a Noh Ji-wook, a prosecutor, while Nam Ji-hyun plays as Eun Bong-hee, a prosecutor trainee. This is a Korean drama that is set in the backdrop of a legal firm which a young woman named Eun Bong-hee joins as a trainee. He yells that he wont just watch Chief Bang die, so Eun-hyuk asks if he has a plan. Bong-hee follows Ji-wook outside, and when he looks up at her with that lost expression, she sits and pulls his head to her shoulder. His internal battle to do the right thing was so sad to watch because we all know that HS is the killer. Thank you again LollyPip for the fast recap. if (d.getElementById(id)) return; Bong Hee tells Ji Wook that shes given up on liking him, and Ji Wook answers that hes willing to stay where he is right now and wait for her. He could have confirmed BH really did see him before he killed HJ. i think it's Chanho (lol is he still alive though?) He tells Eun-hyuk and Bong-hee that theyll never use it, tossing it in his desk drawer and declaring that theyre going to do this honestlyotherwise, theyre no better than the criminals themselves. I wonder who it is? He realizes that his fight with Ji-wook and overnight jail stay was a trick to get him out of the way, and he mutters, This is fun.. UNLIMITED TV SHOWS & MOVIES. The man had made sure to be caught on CCTV cameras as he made his delivery, per Hyun-soos instructions. Ji-wook says he knows, but he still plans to do this. I liked K2 stylistically. She says its for him now that hes out of jail (eating tofu is customary upon prison release, as a superstition to ward off future visits), but he complains about the taste and refuses to eat it. I also thought it the car might be involved, HS probably set it up. Yesssss, this episode!!! Noh Ji Wook who is a prosecutor tries to help Eun Bong Hee but loses his job in the process. He's the one who took the knife & pretend to become amnesia!!! And mr. Bang still need to wake up not having brain damage. i am still scare for him! Bong-hees feeling guilty too and gives in to her tears as she sinks to her heels. I really love having such a layered, motivated villain because it makes the conflict so much more interesting than if he were one-note. The car that hit him peels away from the scene of the accident, but not before we see that the driver is the man Hyun-soo was following. Then came the day when his mother woke, and shed said that she had to wake up because that man was too loud. Before Strong Woman came out, information was released saying the three main characters would be living together in a weird love triangle, but that never really happened. Ji-wook decides to dispose of the stolen knife. Obviously it was the girl's death that was the turning point for Hyunsoo to turn murderer, but if that girl hadn't died, would something else eventually have triggered it? And then I went right back to crying because if JW is crying I can't help myself. He asks what else they can do when Hyun-soo admitted to the murders but they cant find a single piece of evidence. also, the writer nim really does a great job in writing characters. The kissing scenes are shot through glass shelves and now the stabbing of Bang also. Completely agree with you, Hyun Soo is such a chilling antagonist. Hyunsoo confessed the killings so that Jiwook and his team will stop following him because he is also investigating on his own and is planning to get the justice the girl deserves, he will put the justice on his own hand. Whether it was because of the adorableness between leads, or the twists and turns, or the completely relatable characters, there. HAHA. Here's hoping for some time together for our couple in the next episode. Watch trailers & learn more. With HS the guy who hit him is probably going to show up again, so we'll see what happens then. The fact that Hyun Soo was spying on that guy driving the car makes me think that he planned it as well. yoo jung was so competent than how can she and her team not be properly geared up investigation of hs house? But not fully amnesia. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, Ji Wook then impatiently retorts that he doesnt need to eat it, resulting in a super adorable pout from Eun Hyuk. 22), This page was last edited on 15 February 2023, at 18:00. And while they comeclose a few times, they finally realize that their children are dating each other, which is immediately followed by Ji Wook officially introducing Bong Hee as his girlfriend to the two moms. It cuts away to the morning after, where Bong Hee is enveloped in Ji Wooks arms, and he kisses her first on her head, then places another on her bare shoulder (cue the screams and fainting spells). He tended to sympathize and sometimes secretly side with the opposition. Despite the initial misunderstandings, the two develop a close bond as they work together to solve a murder case. The annoyed detective says that they can just cool their heels in jail. then go different direction, and crash HS. Do you agree with the list? Connect with Facebook Ji Wook has tears in his eyes as he reveals this. - I'm soo relief and glad to hear Chief Bang is alright!!! Ji Chang Wook x Nam Ji hyun chemistry is at its best. Please make a healthy recovery!! Anyways, although it was relatively enjoyable thanks to the cast and I did also like the twist at the end with the killer's role in the crime, it was generally not a very good drama. That scene with the ghost of a girlfriend/sister was heartbreaking, his gaze just said it all really and as LollyPip said it's too hard to vilify him completely when we know there are circumstances that may be equally just as tragic to bring him to be like this. and another maybe that suspicious guy, chef yang and the "others" "rape his girl" then died and KCH knows it all who does nothing. Bong Hee is sure of her feelings at first, yet Ji Wook keeps pushing her away. The people's hero Woo Do-hwan is MBC's Joseon Lawyer, First look at Kim Seo-hyung in ENA's Paper Moon, Drama viewership ratings for the week of Feb. 20-26, 2023. CHIEF BANG IS ALIVEEEEE! Everyone in his office hates him, but he doesnt care until he meets his match, apprentice lawyer Eun Bong Hee, who doesntput up with his tantrums. Turning his head, he sees a teenage girl in a school uniform, the same girl he saw that time in the park. I don't know, there's just something about how this writer is structuring the flashbacks and clues that makes me think that everything is about to come full circle. However, the writing was INCREDIBLY weak and confusing. She idly wishes that the murder weapon would be found (to make her job easier), and Bong-hee, Eun-hyuk, and Ji-wook exchange loaded glances. So he is not the killer and the amnesiac "real killer" doesn't remember the killing or him. Random question: Nobody thinks about using the help of a true private investigator? Its possible Ji-wook made a big show of saying they would never stoop to such measures to throw them off the scent so he could do it himself, but by his reaction when he realized the knife was gone, I doubt it. (Source: Viki), Woo Jeong Won to join the cast of "Happiness Battle", Kim Se Jeong confirmed to join the upcoming drama "Office Blind Date". Watch the latest episode at Viki! I personally don't think Ji Chang Wook was best for the role but his performance was great nonetheless. Its like we keep getting surprise. You can really only be so raw and vulnerable in front of someone you trust, and we saw that Ji Wook was that kind of person to Bong Hee. Lawyer Ji's excitement for a special day is quickly dampened. CEO Byun uncharacteristically thinks positive, assuring everyone that Chief Bang is strong and that hell be fine. In that way, I'm rooting fofr him to finish the job and am sad at the possibility of him being dead. And i wont guess the amnesia part of this drama. I do love BH in this drama. i think HS has amnesia from the very startselective amnesia that isdunno why though just a hunch and the guy who bump HS intentionally is the guy who hurts/kill his love one and KCH might not be at all innocent--not because he killed someone but because of his past with HS. I'm just scared of what the consequences might be. But Noh does not accept her love towards him but . > I have a feeling it was Mr. Byun who put the knife in Hyun Soo's house, who else if not him? Theyre only tiny differences, but Hyun-soos ability to notice the finest details make them stand out like beacons. To the latter point, to some degree, it reminds me of W. W worked well as a marathon because you didn't have time to process what was happening. Welcome to Mirage. I am loving this show, but wishing that I had waited and binged because waiting a week between episodes is torture. But, I feel like going ahead to kill people who were not directly involved with that girl's death makes him less human. District Attorney Jang doesn't care about releasing the wrongly convicted man. I've had it on my 'to watch' list for ages and have now just finished watching it. That night Ji-wook stares at the knife Eun-hyuk stole from Hyun-soos apartment. I don't think it was Ji Wook after the statement so it remains quite a mystery. That evening Eun-hyuk drives Bong-hee somewhere, asking mysteriously if shell join him in doing something bad. I thought this episode was thrilling compared to last week's. She smiles at him happily, but his answering smile is heartrendingly sad. When HS was following that guy, we didn't get to see what happened next. ? He even keep 1 inside his pocket, i know in dramaland shamans are never wrong. Hyun-soo mutters that Ji-wook must not understand how he feels after all, and he wonders what he should do to make him understand. Hes upset when the officers trash his place, and he follows Yoo-jung into the kitchen. }); I'm too emotional to form a coherent guess at the moment. 8.9/10 from 29 users. My guess is CEO Byun because in this episode they've shown him always "sleeping" my guess is that he overheard about their plan and he decided to take the blame since he's older than the "kids", who still have a long future ahead and can't afford to lose their licenses.. but ye, this is just my guess.. haha. Car and motorcycle collide at full speed, and Hyun-soo tumbles over the hood of the car. Suspicious Partner is just chock full of memorable moments. Our romance definitely took a backseat in this episode, but we got so much suspense and plot movement on our murder case that I didn't find myself minding too much. Anyway this chapter was so scary! Suspicious Partner (also translated as Love in Trouble ), is a drama that successfully blends the two opposing genres of romance and crime, unlike maybe a Strong Woman Do Bong Soo, which felt. A worrying thought hits him, but he shakes it aside, not seeing someone watching from behindHyun-soo. Choi Tae Joon starred as Ji Eun Hyuk, Ji Wook's former friend, and Nara starred as Cha Yoo Jung, Ji Wook's ex-girlfriend. Yess. Ji Wook is overcome with grief and panic when he findsMr. Bangs body still and lifeless, and it is an absolutely heartbreaking scene to watch. All of this complexity, combined with Dong-has brilliant performance as the tragically tarnished white knight, is causing him to quickly become my favorite drama villain ever. Im sure all of us here love Mr. Bang, and when the scene went down, our hearts were in our throats, fearing for his life. He deserves to be up there with song joong ki and Kim so hyun. I'm really looking forward to learning about why Hyun-soo felt the need to go to such lengths. Hes clearly struggling to keep it together, his sentences increasingly disjointed and meandering, and they all look worried about him. It would not be difficult for Hyun Soo (if he survives) or any other lazy prosecutor to pin this on Ji Wook and even if Hyun Soo dies, he dies a victim of a set-up. Federal government websites often end in .gov or .mil. Hes so focused on losing those behind him that he doesnt see a car approaching him at a cross street. Government calls time on asylum 'gravy train' with crackdown on 40m migrant lawyers. She leaves after cheating on Ji Wook, only to come back and ask him for forgiveness. Hyun soo could have been like jiwook, but losing his dear one made him take revenge. Hyun-soo lies motionless in the street. I love how complicated this drama is! If someone has amnesia, are they responsible for their past selves actions? She reasons that shes already been to prison, so a second time wont make a big difference. This is a very interesting conundrum that is being addressed in another ongoing drama - Circle. The actor had his first Naver V App broadcast last June 29, Soompi reported. I didnt realise there were previews.. but even if there are, i dont usually watch them, in order not to spoil myself a little bit! I just don't know if my heart can take them in danger anymore! And for next we'll be happy again. I'm just so happy he's aliiiiiive. ? the legs looks pretty skinny, and the pants that he wears is not the kind that Eunhyuk/Jiwook wore. He is old! If the person dies as a result they would be likely be charged with vehicular manslaughter and the sentence would be much worse if it's a hit-and-run. One positive result of Hyun-soos actions is that Ji-wook appears to be finally accepting Eun-hyuk, and even working with him. Hed picked them up, secretly pocketing Hyun-soos keys in the process. This is a mere question- ethical one ofcourse- and by you i just mean anyone.. Suspicious partner ji eun hyuk. I think every actor last project especially drama, mostly they did something unforgettable to their fans. Yoo-jung asks about his alibi, and Hyun-soo readily offers one, saying that he was working that night and can verify delivery logs. Bong Hee, seeing his sincerity, breaks down in tears; as she cries, you can see her walls coming down and all the pent up anxiety and feelings of being wronged chip away and dissolve. Bong Hees mom and Ji Wooks mom have their own little cat and mouse relationship going on throughout the show, which isquite entertaining to watch. No no no. (Source: Viki) Edit Translation, Noh Ji Wook is a brainiac prosecutor and Eun Bong Hee is a rookie justice department intern, who always seems to find herself in the most unfortunate and embarrassing situations. The actor who played the villian also really impressed me. Love every scenes that ji wook and hyun so face each other and talk. The list is endless. Hyun Soo alternates between taunting him, baiting him, andlaughing at how Ji Wook had passionately defended him before, and we cant help but get chills down our spine.
