  • Suspicious Partner: Episodes 23-24

SuspiciousPartner23-24-00408.jpg

 

I’m going to be honest here, this episode is not easy to watch. Our killer isn’t going to hide quietly until things blow over, and the closer the team gets to discovering the truth about him, the more unpredictable he becomes. As Ji-wook and Bong-hee prepare to define exactly what they have between them, they’ll face a challenge that could change their lives forever.

 

 

 

EPISODE 23 RECAP

After seeing his client Jung-ha die right in front of his eyes, Ji-wook thinks about Jung-ha’s prediction that there will be another death soon, and he calls Bong-hee. He runs to her, thinking that life is too short not to cherish those you love while you can. When he finds her, he hugs her tightly and begs, “Like me back now, please, Bong-hee-ya.†Bong-hee pulls back to look into Ji-wook’s eyes. She sees the desperation on his face and bursts into tears, and all he can do is hold her while she ugly-cries.

That evening Bong-hee sits alone, wondering what to do now. Ji-wook jumps up nervously when she leaves her room, and she asks why he confessed in the street and made her feel pressured. He explains that he felt like he was wasting time, then says that it’s her turn to tell him what’s going on. Bong-hee thinks about her discovery that Hyun-soo is the killer, but she just tells Ji-wook that she cried earlier because she’s had a terrible day. Ji-wook studies her face carefully, then he asks if it’s because of Hyun-soo. He can tell he’s hit on the problem when Bong-hee doesn’t answer, so he asks what she knows about him.

 

The man from Chan-ho’s photo heads home with a suitcase in tow, with Hyun-soo following right behind him. Hyun-soo watches closely to see which light comes on when the man enters his apartment building, then he sighs and says to himself that it’s been a long time since he saw his friend. Turning his question back on him, Bong-hee asks Ji-wook what he knows about Hyun-soo. After a long nervous pause, Ji-wook says that Hyun-soo might be the murderer who killed the chef, but he can’t bring himself to say, “… and Hee-joon.†He’s honest about the fact that he has no evidence and that it’s just a hunch.

Bong-hee looks betrayed and asks why he hid this from her after promising not to keep secrets. Ji-wook apologizes, and Bong-hee tells him to stop everything, even to stop expressing his feelings for her. Ji-wook refuses to do that, asking why they should let Hyun-soo come between them.

Scoffing, Bong-hee tells him to think of it from her perspective, but Ji-wook says that he already does. He knows that she blames herself for luring the killer to them, then for having them defend a guilty man and set him free. He understands that she’s having a hard time, but he tells her that she’s mistaken.

He tells Bong-hee that it was an accident, and that he’s going to help her get through it even if she tries to push him away. He promises her that he’ll catch Hyun-soo, and he says that she has a decision to make: Does she want them to go through this separately, or together?

In a dark alley, a man with one arm in a sling chases a young woman, and when he catches up to her, he throws her to the ground and pulls a knife on her. He growls that he told her not to leave him, so they can just die together. He begins swinging the knife wildly, managing to shallowly cut her arm as she tries to fight him off. A student sees them and screams, so the man escapes down the dark alley.

Bong-hee is snapped from her funk by a phone call from the girl who was attacked, Yeon-woo, who turns out to be an old friend. Bong-hee rushes to the police station with Ji-wook tagging along, where she learns that Yeon-woo’s boyfriend tried to kill her when she broke up with him. Bong-hee unleashes a string of curse words, then demands to know where the ex is now.

Luckily he was arrested and is being held in a cell, but the policeman says they didn’t find a weapon. Yeon-woo shows him her slashed arm, and Ji-wook says that if the man used a weapon, it can be considered attempted murder.

But he also points out that Yeon-woo’s wound is too small to prove that her ex was trying to kill her, and that there’s no evidence that he was even the one who did it. He verifies that the ex-boyfriend will be held for forty-eight hours, knowing that the police only have that long to obtain enough evidence to arrest him.

Meanwhile, the ex-boyfriend sits in his cell, shaking with fury and hissing to himself, “I’m going to kill her.â€

 

SuspiciousPartner23-24-00117.jpg

 

Ji-wook and Bong-hee drop Yeon-woo off, then head home. Ji-wook can see how upset Bong-hee is, so he reaches over to take her hand. She puts up a small struggle, but then she thinks about how he said he felt like he was wasting time and relaxes.

When they get home, Bong-hee can’t help but recall Ji-wook asking why they have to be apart because of Hyun-soo, and his telling her that she needs to decide if they’ll go through this together or apart. She stays up all night thinking, and in the morning she goes upstairs to talk to him.

She surprises him as he’s coming out of the shower, and he yelps and nearly falls over, ha. She tells him firmly that she’s decided to live without shame, and that they should just live as they please and be selfish, because what more is there to life? Ji-wook is confused, so Bong-hee says in a nervous rush that today is their first day. EEEEeeeee!

Why do they have to kill such innocent and lovely character like Mr. Bang? :cry:

 

For the last 10 minutes I already knew it was coming but I still hanged on to the hope of my suspicion coming true.. I was like "please have something happen to eun bonghee leave mr bang alone" allover because if something happens to Bonghee, she would likely survive bc duh she is the lead, and as for Mr Bang, he will def die and it did happen. I was so disappointed seeing Bonghee fine in the ambulance, inside I thought "fuck, Mr Bang will die"..

 

This is the worst episode for me yet.

Team Dramabeans: What we’re watching??!

 

javabeans

  • Suspicious Partner: While the main couple is still cute and sweet, right now I’m more into the oddball workplace family and every comic interaction in the law firm (maybe because it feels like we put the main romance on pause for a while and I was getting antsy). They fit together so well in a very odd way, and it’s refreshing to be able to take a break from the serial killer storyline with their childish antics.

 

girlfriday

  • Suspicious Partner: All the secret-keeping and romance-deferring was starting to feel really artificial, so I’m relieved that we’ve gotten past that stage. I’m fine with murder and mayhem, just as long as our characters aren’t keeping each other in the dark “for their own good.†Boo to that.

 

chickachunga

  • Suspicious Partner: Loved the pilot, but the show hasn’t grabbed my interest since so I’ll be dropping this, even though Nam Ji-hyun is cute as buttons, unwashed hair and all.

 

murasakimi

  • Suspicious Partner: Ji-wook’s confession to Bong-hee was so perfect! So much respect and communication and honesty—it makes me grin just thinking about it. But to be frank, overall my interest in this show is kind of dwindling. I think this is the kind of show that’s better watched all at once in an unhealthy binge.

 

Laica

  • Suspicious Partner: â€¦Except that would mean I’d miss our puppies Bong Bong and Wookie, and I can’t have that. The mildang was fun, but I’m glad they’ve cleared the air and aren’t keeping secrets anymore—yay for the delicious corniness of our new couple! But oh, my heart. The way Ji-wook hugged Bong-hee after finding her safe… and the way he sobbed over his Eun-ho hyung. Every week you play with my emotions, Show. I’d claim to be mad, but I’m so here for it.

 

tipsymocha

  • Suspicious Partner: Our main couple is super adorable but equally SO FRUSTRATING. Please can you just talk to each other honestly, because you’re both refraining from telling each other the exact same suspicions for essentially the same reasons. I love you both, but I also kind of want to lock the two of you in a room until you’re on the same page. Capiche?!

Suspicious Partner: Episodes 25-26

 

SuspiciousPartner25-26-00313.jpg

 

Ji-wook has been the principled man thus far, but when push comes to shove, it turns out that he isn’t the type of man to sit back while those he cares about are threatened. He’s sick and tired of feeling yanked around and afraid, and now it’s time for action—but that action may come at a cost, and I’m not sure the price is worth it.

 

EPISODE 25 RECAP

Chief Bang visits one of the men in Chan-ho’s photo, but he finds the guy dead in his apartment. He’s attacked by a man in black, who leaves him bleeding to death from a stab wound in the belly. Before he goes, the man takes off his face mask — and it’s Hyun-soo.

Ji-wook finds Chief Bang in a pool of blood and calls the paramedics, who rush him into an ambulance — he’s alive! Meanwhile Eun-hyuk picks up Bong-hee and they rush to the hospital, calling Yoo-jung on the way. Bong-hee asks worriedly if Chief Bang will be okay, and Eun-hyuk struggles to say that he’ll be fine.

 

suspicious2526-00006.jpg SuspiciousPartner25-26-00027.jpg

 

Ji-wook rides in the ambulance, still crying and apologizing to Chief Bang for not coming sooner. Even as he’s outwardly apologizing, Ji-wook’s inner voice says in self-recrimination, “A pointless apology. A pointless regret.†Ji-wook starts to cry in earnest, pleading with his friend not to die, and his tearful face fades to his younger self, sobbing in a fiery room as his father dies next to him.

At the hospital, he stays with Chief Bang’s gurney until he’s stopped at the entrance to the operating room. He thinks about Hyun-soo, certain that this must be his handiwork, and his sorrow turns to fury. Ji-wook screams Hyun-soo’s name at the top of his lungs and pounds the wall with his fist. He’s calmer by the time Eun-hyuk and Bong-hee arrive, though he’s still covered in Chief Bang’s blood. When Yoo-jung gets there, Ji-wook asks her to personally investigate what happened, telling her not to rely on the police. He says that Hyun-soo is the primary suspect, but that it won’t be easy to find evidence because he knows how to cover his tracks and not leave forensic evidence.

He’s clearly struggling to keep it together, his sentences increasingly disjointed and meandering, and they all look worried about him. Finally Yoo-jung tells him to leave everything regarding the investigation to her, and Eun-hyuk adds that right now, they need to focus on Chief Bang.

Yoo-jung goes directly to the scene of the murder and Chief Bang’s attack to get a first look. She tells the police to get her the films from every CCTV camera in the area.

CEO Byun arrives at the hospital too, and the law firm family waits together nervously until the surgeon emerges from surgery to talk to them. He explains that Chief Bang’s spleen was injured, but they’ve stopped the bleeding. Everyone sighs with relief, but there’s bad news — there was so much bleeding that Chief Bang’s brain was deprived of oxygen, so there’s the possibility of brain damage. Oh no.

 

SuspiciousPartner25-26-00100.jpg

 

CEO Byun uncharacteristically thinks positive, assuring everyone that Chief Bang is strong and that he’ll be fine. But Ji-wook looks shocked as he tries to process this new danger to his friend, so Eun-hyuk sits with him and puts a comforting arm around his shoulders. Still, there’s something new and very dark in Ji-wook’s eyes.

Hyun-soo meets with a guy who’s wearing his black jacket and driving his motorcycle, and he confirms that the man did everything he asked. Earlier in the day Hyun-soo had hired him to make a certain delivery at a certain time, directing him not to take off the helmet and to speak as little as possible.

 

suspicious2526-00087.jpg SuspiciousPartner25-26-00122.jpg

 

As he explained the task, Hyun-soo had thought, “You’re going to become me. From now until tonight, you’re going to be my perfect alibi.†Ah, so he set it up so that it would look like he was making deliveries at the time of the murder. He’d even given the man his cell phone with instructions to send a text message at a particular time.

In split screen, we see his alibi being made by his backup while Hyun-soo was actually attacking Chief Bang. The man had made sure to be caught on CCTV cameras as he made his delivery, per Hyun-soo’s instructions.

Now the man reports back to Hyun-soo, recalling every single detail he encountered on his errand, which Hyun-soo commits to memory.

 

SuspiciousPartner25-26-00153.jpg suspicious2526-00122.jpg

 

Bong-hee follows Ji-wook outside, and when he looks up at her with that lost expression, she sits and pulls his head to her shoulder. She murmurs that Chief Bang will be okay, and Ji-wook sighs that he thought Chief Bang was doing to die, because he couldn’t find a pulse or hear him breathing.
