Park Jin Hee rushed the scene of stock transactions involving Kim Hee-jeong and Cheon Hee-ju and prevented a crisis.
In episode 23 of the KBS2 daily drama Red Pearl, which aired on the evening of the 30th (written by Kim Seo-jeong, directed by Kim Seong-geun, produced by DK E&M, Monster Union), Kim Dan-hee (Park Jin Hee) stopped Choi Yoo-na (Cheon Hee-ju) from handing over stocks to Oh Jeong-ran (Kim Hee-jeong) in exchange for covering up her crime, delivering an electrifying catharsis.
That day, Kim Dan-hee (Park Jin Hee) found evidence that the hooded sweatshirt worn by the design book thief in the CCTV was identical to the one owned by Choi Yoo-na (played by Cheon Hee-ju). Even in this situation, Choi Yoo-na shamelessly responded by claiming that the accuser had publicly posted a confession video, provoking viewers' anger.
But Kim Dan-hee and Chloe (Nam Sang-ji) immediately saw through that the video was fake. At the same time, as it was revealed that the accuser had been captured by Oh Jeong-ran and forced to broadcast a false confession, the tension rose further. Kim Dan-hee, Chloe and Park Min-jun (Kim Kyung-bo) concluded that securing the accuser's whereabouts was urgent to reveal the truth, marking the beginning of a full-scale battle over the facts.
Just when physical evidence became desperate, Chloe said that a trap could lead to decisive proof, and Kim Dan-hee immediately thought of Choi Yoo-na's hooded sweatshirt. The two's perfect teamwork, which shone in the moment of crisis, provided another pleasure for home viewers. As they expected, Choi Yoo-na threw the hoodie, the evidence, into a clothing collection bin to erase traces of the crime, and Jung Yoon-jung (Ha Jae-sook), who had been lying in wait, obtained it and created a decisive turning point that flipped the situation.
Afterward, Choi Yoo-na went to Chloe and demanded an apology arrogantly while sharply confronting her. But Chloe, unfazed, delivered a chilling rebuke, saying, "There may be more truths that need to be revealed," and engaged in a tense showdown. At that moment, Oh Jeong-ran's appearance changed the situation. Chloe watched the two hastily leaving with suspicious eyes, making the future development intriguing.
The situation moved rapidly. Under Oh Jeong-ran's pressure, Choi Yoo-na left home with the seal to transfer the stocks. Hong Young-sil (Kyung-sook), misunderstanding it as Kim Dan-hee's scheme, barged into the office and caused a commotion, and the belatedly realizing Kim Dan-hee's appearance raised the drama's urgency to a peak.
At the end of the broadcast, just as Choi Yoo-na was about to reluctantly stamp the seal on the stock power of attorney, Kim Dan-hee appeared. She mercilessly tore up the power of attorney and stopped the transaction between the two. The 'refreshing ending' that foiled the transaction at a decisive moment delivered unstoppable immersion.
The KBS2 daily drama Red Pearl will change its schedule to air Monday through Thursday starting this week.
