Park Jin Hee and Nam Sang Ji dropped their suspicions of each other and began to unite for their goal.
On the 18th episode of KBS 2TV daily drama Red Pearl, which aired on the 23rd, the struggles of Kim Dan-hee (played by Park Jin Hee) and Chloe (played by Nam Sang Ji), who collaborated to win first place in the symbol design review for Adel Bio's business, were portrayed. The sight of the two, who could not trust each other, joining hands for one goal delivered a strange mixture of warmth and shiver at the same time.
Using filming as a pretext, Chloe made a shocking move by going to see Chairman Park Tae-ho (played by Choi Jae-sung) and directly asking about her father Baek Jun-gi's (played by Nam Seong-jin) company "Temi Bio." But Park Tae-ho drew a clear line, saying, "Adel Group Bio did not start from Temi Bio," and engaged in a tense exchange.
Feeling humiliated by Park Tae-ho, who belittled her father's company, Baek Jin-joo (played by Nam Sang Ji) asked Kim Dan-hee, "Was Temi Bio really useless?" revealing her shaken inner feelings. Kim Dan-hee offered an honest answer that she hoped they would properly utilize that technology together, and this remark shook Baek Jin-joo's resolute heart, which had to stand opposite her for revenge.
Meanwhile, Choi Yoo-na (played by Cheon Hee-joo), trying to identify Chloe, confirmed that the DNA test results of James Lee (played by Jeong Ui-gap) and Chloe matched after secretly carrying out the test, and immediately informed Chairman Park Tae-ho. However, this was Chloe's meticulous strategy, who had already switched the test samples, and unaware of this, Choi Yoo-na was relieved, convinced that Baek Jin-joo and Chloe were different people.
Attempts by Oh Jung-ran (played by Kim Hee-jeong) to block Kim Dan-hee's appointment as president also reached a peak. Oh Jung-ran rallied the board and raised questions about her qualifications, and eventually Park Tae-ho abruptly put Kim Dan-hee's presidential appointment on hold. He then set a condition that he would acknowledge her if she produced results in the bio sector symbol review by collaborating with Chloe within a week. With attention focused on how she would overcome this crisis in an unfavorable situation, tension reached its peak.
Meanwhile, Baek Jin-joo knew that Kim Dan-hee must not become president for the sake of revenge, but driven by a desperate desire to restore her father's honor, she ultimately decided to join hands with her. Baek Jin-joo indicated she would maintain an appropriate distance from Kim Dan-hee but accompany her as a strategic partner, foreshadowing a new development.
Responding to Kim Dan-hee's sincere proposal, Chloe embarked on full-fledged collaboration. The two prepared new designs day and night and demonstrated perfect chemistry. At the end of the broadcast, as the judging day approached and the episode ended just before the vote results were revealed, it delivered an irresistible immersion to viewers at home.
