Contains spoilers for 'The Atypical Family'

SEOUL, SOUTH KOREA: The dramatic events of Netflix's show 'The Atypical Family' in Episode 6 left viewers guessing what is going to happen next. Do Da-hae's (Chun Woo-hee) unexpected confession at the altar shattered Bok Gwi-ju's (Jang Ki-Yong) heart and cast a shadow of suspicion over the entire Bok family.

With Da-hae gone and Bok I-na (Park So-Yi) holding onto her own hidden agenda, the once hopeful reunion feels like a distant memory. What will become of Gwi-ju? Can he move on from Da-hae's betrayal, or will anger and heartbreak consume him?

The Bok family dynamic is sure to be strained, but will they find a way to heal and rebuild their trust?

The dramatic cliffhanger of Episode 6 leaves viewers with a whirlwind of emotions and a desperate need for answers. Here's a glimpse into what might unfold in Episode 7 of 'The Atypical Family':

Gwi-ju will undoubtedly be devastated by Da-hae's betrayal.

Driven by a need for answers, Gwi-ju might seek out I-na. Her connection to Da-hae and her hidden powers make her a crucial piece of the puzzle. Gwi-ju's time travel ability could be a significant factor. He might attempt to travel back in time to understand Da-hae's actions or perhaps even prevent them.

However, with Mr Bok's (Ko Du-Shim) previous warnings about the dangers of time travel, this might lead to unforeseen consequences. The Bok family dynamic will be severely strained. Mrs. Bok's dream might play a role in mending the broken pieces.

Dong-hee's newfound ability to fly could be a source of both fear and excitement. Perhaps she'll seek guidance from Mrs Bok or Mr Bok, further solidifying the family bond. Her power might also be a gateway to understanding the family's lineage and their unique abilities.

I-na's secrets are likely to be the focus of Episode 7. Her connection to Do Da-hae remains shrouded in mystery. I-na's hidden powers might also be revealed. While Da-hae's confession seems definitive, the possibility of her return cannot be ruled out. Perhaps there's a genuine reason for her deception, and she'll return to explain herself, seeking forgiveness and Gwi-ju's trust.

Alternatively, Da-hae's disappearance could be a strategic move. Maybe she's drawing out a villain or protecting the Boks from a greater danger. Da-hae's arrival might be a catalyst for a larger conspiracy to be revealed.

Perhaps it might be possible that there's a hidden organization or threat the Boks were unaware of. Da-hae could be a pawn in a bigger game, forced to manipulate Gwi-ju and the Bok family for a yet unknown purpose.

'The Atypical Family' is available for streaming on Netflix.
