What happened in 'Frankly Speaking' Episode 7?
The episode opens with Woo-ju reminiscing about past anniversaries, hinting at a potential regret. Suddenly, Jeong's mother throws a wrench into things by arriving at her place. The production team grapples with Cheo's disappearance. Jeong seizes this opportunity and proposes Woo-ju's entry into the show's 'Couples Paradise' segment. He shockingly reveals their past relationship, leaving everyone, especially Ki-baek, stunned.
Woo-ju struggles to adapt to being a contestant, causing awkward moments as she can't separate herself from her producer role. A game assigns accessories to contestants, and by coincidence, Ki-baek and Woo-ju become partners for a dirt bike race, which they win. This victory earns them a date for the show. Ki-baek confronts Choi about sabotaging the show, while Min Cho-hui (Han Dong-hee), sensing Ki-Baek's feelings for Woo-ju, approaches her for a chat. Later, Jeong reveals their breakup reason to be a silly argument over a microwave.
As a text message arrives asking contestants to choose their date, Woo-ju surprisingly chooses Jeong, and Min Cho-hui, sensing Ki-baek's preference, warns him that she'll sabotage the show if he doesn't pick her. Ki-baek rushes to find Woo-ju on the beach and confesses his feelings. A final game has Woo-ju picking someone with her eyes closed. We see Jeong visiting a restaurant, while an awkward tension hangs between Ki-baek and Woo-ju at his family dinner.
Woo-ju finds Ki-baek at a park, and they reminisce about their mistakes on the show. Woo-ju admits she misses Ki-baek, and after a wave of emotions and flashbacks, she kisses him. Ki-baek, flustered, passionately returns the kiss, leaving viewers eager to see what's next.
What to expect in ‘Frankly Speaking’ Episode 8?
Despite Woo-ju choosing Ki-baek, a lingering question remains: was it a genuine rekindling or a strategic move, perhaps influenced by Kim Jeong-Heon's (Joo Jong-Hyuk) mother's meddling? Jeong could try to exploit this chance to wedge himself back into Woo-ju's life, potentially causing friction with Ki-baek.
Min Cho-hui's ultimatum to Ki-baek hangs heavy. She follows through on her promise to sabotage the show if he doesn't choose her. She could also team up with Jeong, creating a united front against Ki-baek and Woo-ju.
With Cheo gone and the show potentially on the verge of chaos, the production team might face additional challenges. Their efforts to maintain order amidst the escalating romantic drama could be a comedic highlight.
The episode 7 ending hinted at a flashback revealing more about Woo-ju and Jeong's past. This might expose unresolved issues or lingering feelings that could complicate the present situation.
