Park Jin Hee sprang into action to uncover the truth that would reveal her sister's death.
On the 2nd, episode 6 of KBS 2TV daily drama 'Red Pearl' (directed by Kim Seong-geun, written by Kim Seo-jeong) aired, in which Kim Dan-hee (played by Park Jin Hee) and Baek Jun-gi (played by Namsungjin) reunited after about 20 years. Baek Jun-gi told Kim Dan-hee that he had the bloodstain left by the person who killed her sister, creating a gripping Unmasked toward revenge. That day's broadcast rating was 9.5% (Nielsen Korea provided, nationwide households), marking a personal best as it continues its relentless rise.
Yesterday's broadcast depicted Kim Dan-hee after entering Adel and showing that about 20 years had passed. Kim Dan-hee, who became an executive of the Adel Group, solidified her position within the group while hosting events. Despite her outstanding abilities, she stood confidently without wavering in the face of dismissive looks that labeled her a 'second.' In particular, it was revealed that she acted ruthlessly—thoroughly guarding her home to protect her nephew Park Min-joon (played by Kim Kyung-bo), studying jewelry appraisal to withstand company executives' checks—which moved viewers.
Also, Kim Dan-hee secretly received a business card for 'Ihwa-chae,' which privately arranges marriages between the wealthy and the political and business worlds, from a certain private matchmaker, sparking curiosity about future incidents. Meanwhile, Oh Jeong-ran (played by Kim Hee-jeong) exploded with inferiority at her situation contrasted with Kim Dan-hee's success and unleashed hysteria on employees. Learning of this behavior, Park Tae-ho (played by Choi Jae-seong) became enraged and ordered Oh Jeong-ran and her son Park Hyun-jun (played by Kang Da Bin) to move their belongings to a separate building. Unlike the impatient Oh Jeong-ran, whose position was threatened, Park Hyun-jun calmed his mother with a composed attitude and showed indifference to the group's management rights, drawing attention.
Meanwhile, Baek Jin-joo (played by Namsungji) and Park Min-joon spent a special birthday. Born at the same time on the same day, the two conveyed their feelings to each other. Baek Jin-joo confessed, "I liked you from the first time we met. As if I've known you for a very long time," hinting that the tender bond between the two children that began more than 20 years ago would develop into a full-fledged romance.
In the meantime, Oh Jeong-ran, unable to endure the humiliation of being driven to the separate building, visited Kim Dan-hee after the event and caused a disturbance. At that commotion, Baek Jun-gi (played by Namsungjin), who had returned to Korea, heard the name 'Kim Myung-hee,' recognized Kim Dan-hee, approached her and handed her his business card. He then left the ominous words "Contact me if you need a witness," adding to the tension.
Kim Dan-hee also recognized Baek Jun-gi at once and sensed that he had a truth to convey. However, due to Park Tae-ho's strict surveillance, meeting was not easy, and Kim Dan-hee devised a meticulous plan to use the introduced 'Ihwa-chae' as the meeting place to secretly meet Baek Jun-gi without Park Tae-ho knowing.
Finally, the two reunited at 'Ihwa-chae.' Baek Jun-gi revealed the shocking fact that evidence from the past incident still remained. When he said he had evidence that her sister had been murdered and even the perpetrator's bloodstain, Kim Dan-hee was swept with a mix of overwhelming hope and surprise that she could clear her grievance after about 20 years. However, a scene suggested that Oh Jeong-ran was secretly eavesdropping outside the door of their conversation, heightening immersion with an unpredictable storm of developments.
