Kang Ji-seon screams accusations at Min Jun-ho in MBC drama 'Liar'
In the MBC drama 'Liar', Kang Ji-seon (Seo Hyun-jin) uncovers that Min Jun-ho (Yoo Yeon-seok) committed sexual crimes against both his wife, Joo Eun-hye, and her close friend, Kim Jeong-mi.
During the broadcast of MBC drama 'Liar' on the 13th, Kang Ji-seon confronted Min Jun-ho after Kim Jeong-mi's sudden reversal of her confession regarding Min Jun-ho's alleged sexual crimes. The confrontation escalated when Min Jun-ho grabbed Kang Ji-seon by the neck following her public accusations.
The ugly reality of Min Jun-ho (Yoo Yeon-seok) has been exposed once again. As circumstances reveal that not only his wife Joo Eun-hye but also his long-time friend Kim Jeong-mi were victims of sexual crimes, the anger of Kang Ji-seon (Seo Hyun-jin) has exploded. While the cruel true face of Min Jun-ho is revealed behind the mask of a perfect husband, his brazen behavior in attempting to erase the victims' pain has provoked the fury of viewers.
In the MBC Friday-Saturday drama 'Liar' broadcast on the 13th, Kang Ji-seon is depicted digging into the shocking secrets surrounding the death of Min Jun-ho's wife, Joo Eun-hye. Until now, Min Jun-ho was remembered by those around him as a flawless husband. His mother-in-law defended her son-in-law, saying, "He was terribly good to our Eun-hye. He was beyond perfect," and the deceased's close friend, Kim Jeong-mi, also initially remembered Min Jun-ho as a good husband.
However, Kang Ji-seon's persistent questioning drew out the truth that Kim Jeong-mi had been hiding. Ultimately, Kim Jeong-mi broke down, confessing, "I had a relationship with Min Jun-ho before Eun-hye died." It was a moment where another secret related to the wife's death was revealed.
Kang Ji-seon immediately suspected the possibility of drug-facilitated sexual assault. She asked, "Was Kim Jeong-mi also a victim of GHB?" and Kim Jeong-mi recalled the strange memories of the time, stating, "It seems so. I felt unwell all day the next day and couldn't remember anything." The explanation that her memory vanished and her physical condition worsened after a drinking session intensified the possibility that Min Jun-ho created another victim.
Kim Jeong-mi also confessed that Joo Eun-hye passed away not long after learning about the relationship between the two. Amidst a tangle of guilt for betraying her friend and confusion from not fully understanding what had happened to her, Kang Ji-seon comforted Kim Jeong-mi, suggesting that it was not her fault. The two promised to go to the police station together to uncover Min Jun-ho's crimes.
However, on the day of the appointment, Kim Jeong-mi did not appear at the police station. When they met again, Kim Jeong-mi suddenly reversed her previous statement. She retreated as if everything was her own fault, saying, "Everything I said was a lie. I'm sorry. I hated myself so much for losing my friend because I made a mistake with her husband while drunk, so I was trying to ease my guilt."
This was another shock to Kang Ji-seon. Witnessing Kim Jeong-mi getting into Min Jun-ho's car, she shuddered with a sense of betrayal. It was also revealed that Min Jun-ho had already secretly broken into the house of Lee Hwa-young and deleted Kim Jeong-mi's recording files. Min Jun-ho's behavior of erasing the victim's testimony and removing traces unfavorable to himself made the truth of the case even more complex.
Ultimately, Kang Ji-seon went directly to Min Jun-ho's house and vented her rage. When Kang Ji-seon confronted him, asking, "You're suing me?", Min Jun-ho countered as if he were the victim, saying, "You disregarded and disgraced my honor." His attitude of prioritizing defamation over the suspicions of his own crimes added fuel to Kang Ji-seon's anger.
Unable to endure any longer, Kang Ji-seon screamed at Min Jun-ho in front of his house, "Min Jun-ho is a rapist! He's a rapist!" At that moment, Min Jun-ho grabbed Kang Ji-seon by the neck and threatened, "Be quiet. Otherwise, you're going to disappear from here." In the moment he attempted to suppress the voice of the victim calling for the truth with violence, Min Jun-ho's dangerous nature was once again revealed vividly.
The progression of 'Liar', which has continued through the wife's death, the close friend's confession, and the missing recording files, is further amplifying the suspicions surrounding Min Jun-ho. In particular, whether Kim Jeong-mi's reversal of her statement is related to pressure from Min Jun-ho, and whether Kang Ji-seon can ultimately prove his crimes, has emerged as the key to future developments. Tension is rising regarding what conclusion Kang Ji-seon's pursuit of the reality hidden behind Min Jun-ho's mask of a perfect husband will reach.
