A full-scale battle has erupted between Park Hyung-sik and Heo Jun-ho in 'Buried Hearts.' The winner was Park Hyung-sik.
On the 6th, according to the audience rating company Nielsen Korea, the 14th episode of the SBS weekend drama 'Buried Hearts' (written by Lee Myung-hee/director Jin Chang-kyu/produced by Studio S, A2Z Entertainment, Purmir Workshop), which aired on April 5th, achieved a nationwide rating of 14.6% and a rating of 14.5% in the metropolitan area, setting a new record for its highest ratings. This is an overwhelming figure that corresponds to first place among all channels and weekly miniseries in the same time slot. The momentary highest rating soared to an impressive 16.1%. Additionally, the 2049 audience rating also reached 3.6%, ranking first among all broadcast programs on Saturday. It was a complete sweep of first place. 'Buried Hearts' is now on the brink of breaking the 'dreaded 15%.'
On that day, Seo Dong-joo (played by Park Hyung-sik) ignited the flames of revenge following the witnessing of his biological father's (played by Lee Hae-young) death. Of course, the target of revenge was the absolute evil Yeom Jang-seon (played by Heo Jun-ho). Amid the full-scale battle between the two, the winner was Seo Dong-joo. It was a thrilling revenge ending.
On that day, Seo Dong-joo witnessed the death of Heo Il-do. Heo Il-do left a message for Seo Dong-joo, saying he would ask for forgiveness in his next life and to take care of his son Heo Tae-yoon (played by Yoon Sang-hyun), who is Seo Dong-joo's half-brother. Seo Dong-joo shed tears mixed with frustration and anger. He began to pressurize Yeom Jang-seon and Daesang Group Chairman Cha Gang-cheon (played by Woo Hyun), who moved according to Yeom Jang-seon's orders, step by step.
First, Seo Dong-joo contacted Elder (played by Choi Kwang-il) to tighten the noose around Yeom Jang-seon. At the same time, he received Heo Il-do's urn from the family of the Daesang family and manipulated Chairman Cha Gang-cheon with the password of the Daesang Group's slush fund safe. In response, Yeom Jang-seon told Seo Dong-joo in front of Cha Gang-cheon, 'Quickly kill me and end the revenge.' However, rather than being intimidated, Seo Dong-joo struck back fiercely, escalating Yeom Jang-seon's anger.
Furthermore, Seo Dong-joo began to use Yeom Jang-seon's weakness, 'Dandelion Information.' He met a journalist who was investigating 'Dandelion Information' and showed him the organized 'Dandelion Information' regarding Yeom Jang-seon. However, Yeom Jang-seon was not one to remain idle. Noticing the contact between Seo Dong-joo and the journalist, he kidnapped Seo Dong-joo's ally Bae Won-bae (played by Lee Yoo-jun). Yeom Jang-seon threatened Seo Dong-joo to hand over 'Dandelion Information' using Bae Won-bae as bait.
Ultimately, to save Bae Won-bae, Seo Dong-joo went to find Yeom Jang-seon with 'Dandelion Information' in hand. It was a full-scale confrontation between the two. After burning the 'Dandelion Documents' Seo Dong-joo brought, Yeom Jang-seon said, 'What happened to you is your fault for defying my great cause. You are the one who swallowed the 2 trillion won national love fund and sacrificed your sister's life to avoid spitting that out,' spewing nonsensical claims. It was creepy brazeness and malice.
Then, Yeom Jang-seon attempted to push Seo Dong-joo off the building. At that moment, a drone rose, and on a large electronic display, Yeom Jang-seon's every evil deed was being broadcast live through the personal channel of the journalist to whom Seo Dong-joo had handed over 'Dandelion Materials.' Seo Dong-joo exclaimed, 'Burned Dandelion is plan A, Ma Jae-yeol TV is plan B.' The thrilling climax with Seo Dong-joo smiling in excitement and Yeom Jang-seon in a panic intersected and 'Buried Hearts' episode 14 came to an end.
Episode 14 of 'Buried Hearts' vividly illustrated the characters no longer hiding their desires, triggered by Heo Il-do's death. With that, the passwords to the Daesang Group slush fund safe and 'Dandelion Information,' and other things that Seo Dong-joo had accumulated for revenge burst out, delivering the thrilling essence of a revenge drama. The flawless performances of the actors without a single moment of distraction greatly enhanced the completeness of the revenge drama 'Buried Hearts.'
'Buried Hearts' is properly detonating Seo Dong-joo's life-all-in revenge and is headed toward its climax. Airing every Friday and Saturday at 9:50 p.m., the powerful and desperate SBS weekend drama 'Buried Hearts' promises a gripping experience.
