What to Expect in the Upcoming Episode
The story centers on Lim Hyeon-jun, a successful actor famous for his detective roles but desperate to break into melodrama, and Wi Jeong-sin, an award-winning political reporter suddenly demoted to the entertainment department.
The end of Episode 8 set the stage for major developments. Hyeon-jun made a surprising decision to join the agency of senior actor Yoon Jung-ho. His goal is not to support Jung-ho, but to weaken his influence from within and stop the lawsuit he has filed against Jeong-sin. This move will likely create a tense undercover dynamic.
Meanwhile, the love triangle is heating up. Lee Jae-hyung, a former baseball star and company CEO, has asked Jeong-sin out. The character Yoon Hwa-young, an editor, has been growing increasingly jealous of the attention Jae-hyung pays to Jeong-sin. Her insecurity recently led her to kiss Jae-hyung without his consent, an act that was witnessed by an office employee. This romantic conflict is set to intensify in the new episode.
Meet the Cast and Characters
The series features a strong ensemble cast led by several well-known actors.
- Lee Jung-jae plays Lim Hyeon-jun, the actor tired of being typecast as a detective.
- Lim Ji-yeon plays Wi Jeong-sin, the principled reporter adjusting to her new role in entertainment news.
- Kim Ji-hoon plays Lee Jae-hyung, a charming former athlete and CEO.
- Seo Ji-hye plays Yoon Hwa-young, an editor whose professional and personal insecurities are causing chaos.
The supporting cast includes Na Young-hee as Hyeon-jun’s mother, Song Ae-sook, and Kim Hyun-jin as his younger brother, Lim Sun-woo.
A Quick Look at the Story So Far
The series began with a fateful misunderstanding between the two leads. Hyeon-jun and Jeong-sin’s first meeting was chaotic, leading him to mistakenly believe she was a call girl. Their clash continued at a red carpet event, where a accident caused a public embarrassment for Hyeon-jun, leading to Jeong-sin’s demotion to the entertainment section.
Since then, their relationship has evolved from one of animosity to a complex partnership. Jeong-sin became a fan of Hyeon-jun’s detective series, while he began to appreciate her determination and honesty. The plot thickened with a scandal involving actor Yoon Jung-ho, whom Jeong-sin accused of having a secret daughter. Jung-ho confirmed the woman was indeed his daughter and filed a lawsuit against the editor who published the rumor, setting the stage for Hyeon-jun’s internal sabotage mission.
