In the fifth episode of MBC's Friday-Saturday drama " (scripted by Han Ah-young, director Song Yeon-hwa, hereinafter "Lee Chin-ja"), Jang Tae-soo (played by Han Seok-kyu) shed tears of remorse that he hurt his daughter Ha-bin (played by Chae Won-bin) and his dead wife Yoon Ji-soo (played by Oh Yeon-soo) due to his suspicions. At the same time, it was revealed that Taesu was with her on the day Ji-soo died, and it was shocking that Taesu also had a secret he couldn't tell. Viewers responded, "'It's a drama that even Han Seok-gyu should suspect'Han Seok-gyu's acting skills show'
The momentum of 'Dipinja', which went viral with a story that makes everything questionable, has been proven. The fifth episode of 'Lee Chin-ja' recorded 6.0% nationwide and 6.5% in the Seoul metropolitan area, breaking its own highest ratings. The best minute was a scene in which Tae-soo, who learned the secret of Ji-soo and Ha-bin, lost his temper and was angry and questioned Choi Young-min (played by Kim Jung-jin), with the highest ratings soaring to 7.8%. (Based on Nielsen Korea)
The broadcast began with Ji-soo's shocking appearance of abandoning the body. Tae-soo moved to find out why his wife Ji-soo abandoned the body of her daughter Harbin's friend Soohyun Lee (Song Ji-hyun). In the meantime, I found out that Ji-soo went to the mental health department. Ji-Soo's counseling file contained the story of Ji-Soo, who grew up alone after her divorce and was overwhelmed with anxiety.
Ji-Soo tried to raise her daughter Harbin, who had no emotional exchange with others, as normal as anyone else. However, the fact that Harbin was happy to have her first friend Su-hyun also had a problem for a while. Ha-bin searched for Su-hyun, who ran away from home, and Su-hyun told Ji-soo that she was scared of Ha-bin. In Ji-soo's mind, the buds of doubt planted by her husband Tae-soo were growing. It became too much to raise Ha-bin, and he suspected that Ha-bin might have made his younger brother Ha-joon die like Tae-soo.

After returning home, Tae-soo blamed himself and shed tears of remorse. Habin stood in front of Tae-soo like that. Tae-soo "Was it all because of your mom? I'll believe everything you say from now on," but Harbin "can't. I don't trust my dad," he said, looking coldly. And "Why did you meet me the day I died? You were with your mom. You thought you could hide it?," he said, throwing a bomb. Then, to Ji-Soo, who was insane in the past, "If you want to die, you will die. Why can't you do it?Tae-soo, who was pushing ", was shocked by the intersecting appearance. The frozen appearance of Tae-soo completed another shock ending, amplifying the curiosity about what happened that day.
The drama's immersion soared as Oh Yeon-soo's passionate performance was added to Han Seok-kyu's acting skills show, which shed tears of remorse. In the scene where Han Suk-kyu sobbed and cried, I could feel Tae-soo's heart full of emotions such as guilt, regret, and sorry. Oh Yeon-soo wanted to raise her daughter normally, but she drew a mother whose heart was getting sick with doubts, and called out viewers' empathy. In particular, Han Seok-gyu and Oh Yeon-soo are seniors and juniors of MBC's open talent, and they met in this work 31 years after 'son and daughter' in 1993. The two actors' true value shone properly, adding to the depth of the story.
Newcomer Chae-won, who plays the role of her daughter, also drew favorable reviews with her formidable presence and cutthroat acting. Chae Won-bin made me wonder about Ha-bin's story by drawing a cold face with no emotion, but looking hurt. Viewers reacted to Tae-soo, Habin, and Ji-soo's excessive immersion in finding out who the `so intimate traitor' would be, respectively.
On the other hand, 'Lee Chin-ja', which turned a turning point in the 10 episodes, raised interest by adding to the mystery of who the real culprit of the murder would be. People who seemed to hide something about the incident, including the mysterious Helmetnam who followed Harbin, made them wonder the truth. In addition, what happened with Tae-soo on the day Ji-soo died, whether Ha-bin was hiding anything else from his father, and what Tae-soo would do for his daughter in the police investigation in the future, made him look forward to the second act.
MBC's Friday-Saturday drama "Traitor This Close" airs every Friday and Saturday at 9:50 p.m.
