KBS2 miniseries ‘Simu-myeon Yeonriri’

In the drama, Park Sung-woong, Lee Seo-hwan, and Jung Sun-chul face off in a tense three-way confrontation on thin ice.

Episode 11 of the KBS2 miniseries ‘Simu-myeon Yeonriri’ (directed by Choi Yeon-su / written by Song Jeong-rim, Wang Hye-ji / produced by Sim Story), airing at 10 p.m. on the 4th, depicts a fraught three-way standoff between Sung Tae-hoon (played by Park Sung-woong), Im Joo-hyung (played by Lee Seo-hwan), and Noh Hyun-gap (played by Jung Sun-chul).

In the previous episode, Sung Tae-hoon succeeded in saving Yeonriri, which had been on the brink of ruin as grotesque mycelium spread over it. Afterward, the Sung family gradually blended into warm, big-hearted Yeonriri and, before they knew it, became part of the community like family. But a crisis hit when it was revealed that the residents’ fertilizer receipt slips they had signed in trust of manager Sung Tae-hoon had been switched into consent forms for the construction of a ‘Matstory’ factory.

Learning what the company really is, Sung Tae-hoon realizes he has been thoroughly used. Pressured by Executive Director Bae (played by Bae Ki-beom) and forced to choose in order to protect his family, he seeks out field manager Noh Hyun-gap, who once worked for ‘Matstory’, and hears a shocking secret. Curiosity builds over what Sung Tae-hoon heard from Noh Hyun-gap.

Meanwhile, a three-way confrontation among Sung Tae-hoon, Im Joo-hyung, and Noh Hyun-gap is foreshadowed, ratcheting up the tension. The moment Im Joo-hyung faces Noh Hyun-gap, he not only grabs him by the collar but also unleashes his fury, shouting fiercely. Seeing this side of Im Joo-hyung for the first time feels ominous.

He even ends up grabbing Sung Tae-hoon by the collar as the clash intensifies. As truths surrounding the consent forms for building a ‘Matstory’ factory come to light one by one, Sung Tae-hoon, who cares more than anyone about cabbage yet faces reality, and the unbridled rage of Im Joo-hyung are poised to collide head-on.

It is also said that the hidden backstory between ‘Matstory’ and the village of Yeonriri will be revealed, further stoking the urge to tune in live.

Episode 11 of the KBS2 miniseries ‘Simu-myeon Yeonriri’ will hit the small screen at 10 p.m. on the 4th.
