by Unit
The adventures of our moonlighting heroine proceed this week! Our hero closes in on her id, and sparks fly between them. We additionally be taught extra in regards to the lives of a few of our supporting characters, and our major villain is revealed.
EPISODES 3-4
We resume the place we left off final week with Yeo-hwa in Soo-ho’s arms after he “saves” her from the hungry bandits. Though Yeo-hwa is presently out as Lord Seok’s widowed daughter-in-law, she would quite not spend extra time with the relentless officer who’s lifeless set on unmasking her moonlighting id. So she turns down Soo-ho’s provide to escort her to the temple.
To additional get him off her again, masked Yeo-hwa sneaks into the capital protection workplace to return Minister Yeom’s tiger portray, however Soo-ho creeps up on her they usually have interaction in a battle of wits and swords. When push turns to shove, Soo-ho’s hanbok strap comes away in Yeo-hwa’s hand, and hiya there, distracting abs! *Followers self* Yeo-hwa manages to flee after feasting her eyes for just a few seconds, however Soo-ho is NOT okay afterwards. His goals are plagued with visions of Yeo-hwa in all her varieties: because the masked girl, the veiled hat girl, and Lord Seok’s daughter-in-law.
Soo-ho shares his confusion in regards to the three girls who “can’t be the identical particular person, however look the identical” together with his subordinate, BI-CHAN (Jung Yong-ju), and Bi-chan involves the pure conclusion that Soo-ho is in love with the three-in-one girl. Lol. Soo-ho firmly denies it, however he’s clearly very taken with Yeo-hwa somehow. By the best way, aside from Minister Yeom, Pil-jik can also be suspiciously within the tiger portray.
Minister Yeom’s spouse, LADY OH (Search engine optimisation Yi-sook), invitations Girl Yoo to take part in a reduction outreach with different members of the Moran Gathering. Girl Yoo is reluctant to assist the poor, however she modifies her tune when she hears that the outreach is supported by the dowager, and that her rival, the Minister of Personnel’s spouse, will likely be in attendance. Each girls need their daughter-in-laws to snag the coveted Chastity Gate title, however no less than not like the Minister of Personnel’s spouse, Girl Yoo’s greed hasn’t reached the extent of goading her daughter-in-law to commit suicide for the title.
Whereas the Moran girls have interaction in one other spherical of the daughter-in-law wars, Girl Oh and Yeo-hwa get all the way down to enterprise on the charity occasion. When one of many weak homes within the reduction camp collapses, Yeo-hwa rushes in to defend the granny inside, and Soo-ho holds up the roof for them to flee. Everybody rushes to the scene of the collapse, however Girl Yoo takes one look at Yeo-hwa and scolds her for being out and about with out her head protecting. Wow! Her daughter-in-law nearly died, however she’s extra involved about modesty.
It is just when Girl Yoo hears that the dowager is certain to reward Yeo-hwa for her heroic act that she places up a reluctant present of concern for her daughter-in-law. And when the dowager lastly rewards Yeo-hwa, Girl Yoo retains the reward in her possession because the household’s heirloom quite than give it to Yeo-hwa. Tsk.
We’re handled to a different Soo-ho shirtless scene, however I’ve no complaints about fan service that strikes the plot. Plus we get to see the brotherly bromance between Soo-ho and Yoon-hak when Yoon-hak attire his brother’s bruises sustained from the collapsed home.
Touched by the ravenous individuals’s plight, a masked Yeo-hwa returns to the reduction camp to drop off some extra rice for the individuals, and he or she learns that fairly plenty of the youngsters on the camp have disappeared. She runs into Pil-jik’s thugs who’re looking for one of many lacking children, and affords to return with them in trade for the child. In the meantime, Soo-ho — who additionally returned to the camp to assist the granny repair her home — hears that the masked girl is round, and he exhibits up halfway into her negotiation with the thugs.
Soo-ho and Yeo-hwa workforce as much as beat up the thugs, and afterwards have a face-off of their very own. Soo-ho manages to pin Yeo-hwa to a wall, and with one deep gaze into her eyes, he lastly will get the reply he has been in search of: the three-in-one girl is certainly Lord Seok’s daughter-in-law! Okay, that was quick. However once more, I’m not complaining. Yeo-hwa headbutts him to get away, however he doesn’t chase after her. Actually, he prevents Bi-chan from recognizing her, and it looks like Yeo-hwa’s secret is protected with him. No less than for now.
Soo-ho returns the tiger portray to Minister Yeom, and Yeom holds him chargeable for a crack within the crossbar as a result of he didn’t catch the thief. Sheesh! What did they are saying about good deeds and punishment? Soo-ho heads to Myeongdo inn to get a alternative crossbar, and there, he meets masked Yeo-hwa who’s visiting So-woon to tell her that Pil-jik has added human trafficking to his listing of crimes. (By the best way, one of many crimes on his listing is the try on So-woon’s life some years in the past.)
Yeo-hwa and Soo-ho bicker over the tiger portray, and find yourself having a picturesque second when the crossbar comes unfastened and petals from inside rain on them. Hmmm. There are petals hidden contained in the crossbar of a portray that Pil-jik is taken with. How romantic unusual! Yeo-hwa reluctantly shares the data about Pil-jik’s trafficking ring with Soo-ho, as a result of the case is larger than what she and So-woon can deal with on their very own. In return, he tells her to remain out of it as a result of the capital protection workplace will deal with it based on the legislation. Pssh. Not him kicking her off the case she delivered to him!
Yeo-hwa just isn’t one to fold her arms and take directions from anybody, so she visits Pil inn for an investigation of her personal in her latest disguise: a male hanbok full with facial hair! LMAO! Within the meantime, Soo-ho arrests Pil-jik for questioning, and when the information filters into the palace, Lord Seok is uneasy. Hmmm.
Minister Yeom pulls strings to get Pil-jik launched, and the Capital Protection workplace is rendered unable to make a transfer in opposition to him for some time. Yoon-hak just isn’t a fan of his brother being the face of the anti-Pil-jik motion particularly since Soo-ho has no laborious proof. Yoon-hak advises him to gather proof separately so he can take Pil-jik down in a single fell swoop, and to watch out whereas at it — a warning Soo-ho positively wants since he’s now on Pil-jik’s hit listing.
Pil-jik is emboldened by his connection to individuals in energy, and because the week involves an finish, his greatest connection is unsurprisingly revealed to be Lord Seok. In fact Lord Seok is the large dangerous! And naturally, he and Pil-jik had been on the forefront of no matter occurred 15 years in the past! I don’t know the way concerned Seok is with Pil-jik’s service provider guild, nevertheless it can’t be good for each of them now that Yeo-hwa and Soo-ho are digging into the enterprise.
The 15-year-old thriller includes the dying of the earlier king, the dying of the top of the king’s guard (Soo-ho’s organic father), and the disappearance of the opposite guards — one among which incorporates Yeo-hwa’s brother. Through the years, the king and Yoon-hak have tried to find the lacking guards, however they haven’t had a lot luck. Nonetheless, they’re not giving up as a result of one of many guards left the palace with the late king’s jade pill, and the particular person may be the important thing to uncovering the reality about what actually occurred that day.
Another issues we realized this week embrace: Minister Yeom the scum is an abusive husband. Girl Oh’s mom had an affair with a servant after her husband died, and Pil-jik is most certainly the product of the union. Minister Yeom doesn’t appear to have a clue that there have been petals in his portray, however Girl Oh appears to know what these petals are. Hmmm.
We additionally learnt that 12 years in the past, Yeo-hwa ran away from dwelling and noticed Yeon-seon dying on the road. Yeo-hwa couldn’t abandon her or run away along with her, so she returned dwelling with Yeon-seon. She taught Yeon-seon find out how to learn and write, and was the primary particular person to pay her for her expertise. An industrious Yeon-seon has since made a lot cash off her many expertise and investments that she will be able to develop into a profitable peddler if she decides to affix a service provider guild. However for now, Yeon-seon doesn’t wish to go away Yeo-hwa’s aspect.
Maybe the drama made certain to tell us that Yeon-seon just isn’t a slave due to no matter is being arrange between her and Yoon-hak. He acknowledged her through the hungry bandits incident after only one earlier interplay on the bookshop, they usually’ve run into one another just a few instances since then. The adventures of the royal secretary and the commoner lady feels like one thing out of a Joseon romance novel. However hey, perhaps I’m simply getting forward of myself with this idea.
