Kim Tae-ung aims gun at Kim You-jung after bomb explosion threatens his sister

Park Jin-young shook viewers with a shocking ending where he aims a gun at Kim You-jung. A tragedy occurred as his desperation to save his younger sister collided directly with the operations of the National Salvation Corps, an independence movement organization. As Song Ji-hyo and Lee Moo-saeng rushed in to prevent a bomb terror attack, an explosion occurred, prompting Park Jin-young to point his weapon at Kim You-jung when he faced the risk of losing his sister, Hanako.

In the episode of the tvN weekend drama '100 Days of Deception' broadcast on the 15th, the process of the National Salvation Corps' bomb operation heading toward an unexpected catastrophe was depicted as Lee Ga-gyeong (Kim You-jung) and Kim Tae-ung (Park Jin-young) began calling each other by their real names. While the characters' hidden identities and emotions began to surface, the trust they held for one another suffered a fatal fracture.

Lee Ga-gyeong strongly opposed the fact that Sato Shinichi (Jin Seon-kyu) had invited Yoo So-ran (Song Ji-hyo) and Yoo Philip (Lee Moo-saeng) to the residence. Yoo Philip also argued that they should wait for the appropriate timing, but Yoo So-ran refused to yield, claiming there would be no more opportunities. Having confirmed Yoo So-ran's firm determination, Lee Ga-gyeong eventually devised a plan to send the bomb herself.

The core of the operation was to utilize the Governor-General's pneumatic tube system. It took approximately 2 minutes and 30 seconds for the Governor-General to send messengers to each residence, and considering the time it would take for the bomb to reach the Governor-General and the Deputy Governor-General, a 4-minute time bomb was required. Yoo So-ran judged this to be a golden opportunity to eliminate both the Governor-General and the Deputy Governor-General simultaneously. However, the problem was that she and Yoo Philip were also inside the residence where the bomb would explode.

Yoo Philip planned to keep Sato Shinichi in the study where the pneumatic tube was located and then avoid the blast himself. Yoo So-ran urged Lee Ga-gyeong to leave the Governor-General's office immediately after sending the bomb, along with her comrade Park Se-hwan. As it was an operation carried out at the risk of their lives, a single unexpected variable threatened to ruin the entire plan.

During her final day at work at the Governor-General's office, Lee Ga-gyeong agonized over how to ensure Kim Tae-ung would not remain at either the residence or the office. Fortunately, Kim Tae-ung revealed he planned to visit the house of President Kim Seung-eok (Lee Ki-young). Lee Ga-gyeong urgently called him "Kim Tae-ung" before adding "Interpreter-nim," and then bid him, "Please be careful and have a safe trip."

Kim Tae-ung also confided in Lee Ga-gyeong about his younger sister, Hanako, revealing she was born to a Korean mother and cannot use her legs, suggesting they meet together next time. It was a moment where emotional changes were sensed between the two as they began using each other's real names. However, this confession from Kim Tae-ung served as foreshadowing that would make the subsequent tragedy even more gruesome.

Before leaving the house, Yoo Philip urged Yoo So-ran, "No matter what happens tonight, you must return to this house safely." For the two, this operation was a dangerous choice that risked not only the success or failure of the independence movement but also their own lives. Sato Shinichi openly provoked Yoo So-ran and Yoo Philip by bringing up the Gyeam-ri Incident.

Sato Shinichi mocked them, mentioning Geum Seok-jung and his daughter, saying, "Choosing conviction over your own child was quite impressive. Only after the daughter died did you finally name your comrades." In response to Sato Shinichi's cruel words—implying he failed to protect both his daughter and his convictions—Yoo So-ran countered, "Heaven's net has large meshes, but nothing escapes; those who commit sins cannot avoid the punishment of heaven." As different convictions and powers clashed, the tension surrounding the residence reached an extreme.

Sato Shinichi then announced that he had arrested Geum Seo-hee (Kim You-jung) on suspicion of being a spy. However, the person brought by the Director of the Police Bureau, Fukuda (Kim Jung-hee), was not Lee Ga-gyeong. While Lee Ga-gyeong and Park Se-hwan, having escaped, attempted to proceed with the bomb operation as planned, no contact came from the residence, and outside, Kim Tae-ung was searching for Lee Ga-gyeong. As the operation failed to proceed as scheduled, signs of catastrophe appeared as the characters' movements diverged.

The person who answered the phone in the study was none other than Hanako. Lee Ga-gyeong instructed Hanako to leave the study immediately, but Hanako did not move, suspicious of the situation. Ultimately, Lee Ga-gyeong had Kim Tae-ung enter the study. Even as Kim Tae-ung urged Hanako to leave immediately, the bomb's timer continued to run. Upon learning that Hanako was in the study, Yoo So-ran and Yoo Philip rushed in and scooped her up.

At that moment, the bomb exploded. Kim Tae-ung, who had been shouting Hanako's name, aimed his gun at Lee Ga-gyeong in shock and rage. It was a moment where Kim Tae-ung's desperation to protect his sister and Lee Ga-gyeong's choice to carry out the operation collided head-on. The two, who had grown closer by calling each other's real names, were now at risk of turning into enemies before the muzzle of a gun.

The National Salvation Corps' operation targeted the Governor-General and the Deputy Governor-General, but met an irreversible tragedy due to the unexpected appearance of Hanako. As convictions for independence, the instinct to protect family, and hidden identities became intertwined, the fates of the characters grew more complex. Tension for the next episode rose regarding the outcome of the gun Kim Tae-ung aimed at Kim You-jung, the survival of those left in the residence after the explosion, and the fate of the National Salvation Corps.
