SEOUL, SOUTH KOREA: Prepare yourselves, Bok family fans, because Episode 5 of 'The Atypical Family' promises even more shocking revelations. We left the Bok family grappling with their extraordinary abilities and the arrival of the enigmatic Do Da-hae.

Bok Gwi-ju (Jang Ki-yong), haunted by his past mistakes and the loss of his wife due to his time-traveling powers, must confront the consequences of his choices. Bok In-a (Park So-yi), overwhelmed by the burden of hearing everyone's thoughts, continues to isolate herself.

Bok Dong-hee (Kim Soo-hyun), a former flying superhero, struggles to reclaim her lost abilities while navigating personal challenges. But the biggest mystery lies with Da-hae (Chun Woo-hee). Her claims of receiving flowers from Gwi-ju in the future and the ability to somehow touch him during his time travel jumps cast a web of doubt.

Episode 5 promises to delve deeper into these questions and the secrets the Boks hold. Will the family rediscover their powers and forge a new path, or will Da-hae's presence unleash unforeseen consequences?

Episode 4 of 'The Atypical Family' throws a web of lies and hidden agendas. We learn that Da-hae's sob story is fabricated. The woman she calls mom is a loan shark collecting a debt, and Da-hae's fire injury is a lie.

Meanwhile, Gwi-ju regains his time travel power thanks to Da-hae's presence, fulfilling his family's prophecy about a special person unlocking their abilities. However, Mrs. Bok warns that past encounters with such people ended tragically.

Gwi-ju's mom sees premonitions, and one predicts Da-hae is in danger at a sauna. This strangely mirrors Da-hae's fabricated fire incident. At the sauna, the truth surfaces - Da-hae faints due to a panic attack, not a fire injury. The loan shark reveals Da-hae uses the fire story to manipulate men.

The episode ends with a bombshell. Da-hae presents Gwi-ju with a marriage certificate from his supposed future self. Is she truly connected to the Bok family's powers, or is she a cunning manipulator with a hidden motive?

Episode 5 promises a deeper dive into Da-hae's tangled web. With her fabricated past exposed, Gwi-ju must decide if she's a key to unlocking the family's powers or a danger. Mrs. Bok's premonition of Da-hae at the sauna hints at a connection, but is it genuine or another manipulation tactic?

Meanwhile, In-a struggles with her telepathy after a budding friendship sours. Will Haan Joon-woo's (Moon Woo-jin) genuine interest help her overcome her fear of connection? And what secrets does Dong-hee hold behind the family vault?

The episode may also delve into the Bok family history, revealing more about the tragic consequences of past encounters with power-awakening individuals.

Expect a thrilling clash between trust and suspicion as the Boks navigate their extraordinary abilities and Da-hae's enigmatic presence.
