What Happened in Episodes 9 and 10?
The latest episodes brought major developments that shifted the power dynamics in Seo Dong Ju’s favor. After surviving a brutal attack by Yeom Jang Seon’s hitman in the hospital, Seo Dong Ju got an unexpected lifeline from Huh Il Do (Lee Hae Young). Originally there to eliminate him, Huh Il Do backed off when he realized his son knew of his dark intentions. Seizing the moment, Seo Dong Ju turned the tables, using Huh Il Do’s failed murder attempt at sea as leverage to blackmail him.
Seo Dong Ju didn’t stop there. He cleverly manipulated the situation by enlisting The Elder (Ryu Seong Su) to pressure Yeom Jang Seon into reconciling with him. Meanwhile, Huh Il Do began plotting to take over the Daesan Group, hoping to neutralize The Elder’s interest in the Swiss account funds tied to Seo Dong Ju. Flashbacks revealed that Yeom Jang Seon knows Seo Dong Ju’s true identity—Chu Seong Hyeon—and Seo Dong Ju himself uncovered vital clues about his father’s past, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of his roots.
Episodes 11 and 12 of Buried Hearts are shaping up to be pivotal as Seo Dong Ju’s quest for revenge intensifies. With his real identity as Chu Seong Hyeon now in play, expect more revelations about his past and how it ties into the Daesan Group’s power struggle. Yeom Jang Seon, aware of Seo Dong Ju’s origins, might use this knowledge to strike back, escalating their fierce battle over the Swiss account holding 2 trillion won.
Seo Dong Ju’s blackmail of Huh Il Do will likely deepen the tension within the Daesan Group, especially as Huh Il Do pushes to seize control. The chairman’s dementia and growing bond with his illegitimate son could spark further conflict, with his daughter issuing threats to keep Seo Dong Ju at bay. Meanwhile, Seo Dong Ju’s efforts to secure the illegitimate son’s place in the family might be his boldest move yet, challenging the established order.
