'When I was the Most Beautiful' Episode 5 promo begins by showing how Ye-ji and Jin adapt to their life as a married couple. First, everything seems sweet, but soon enough, conflicts arise in the form of Carie. She visits Jin and Ye-ji at home and acts as if she understands him. What is surprising really is the fact that she is right. After continually leaving when he wanted to, and racing to stay at one place and work for his father's company leaves him feeling suffocated. 

When Ye-ji overhears their conversation and realizes that her husband's ex-girlfriend was right she decides to let her husband race again. She tells him that she is not worried about him racing, but tells him that he cannot get hurt. This seems to make Jin extremely happy, however, the others in his family worry for him. His need for adventure is something that came from the uncertainty that is life. 

After watching his father fall off a cliff because of him, Jin had been unable to stay put anywhere and he went in search of sport that was not only adventurous but risky as well. He chased the adrenaline rush and by putting himself in constant danger, he was also rebelling against fate. It looks like his need for adrenaline might have become the very reason that ends his love story. 

We see Ye-ji receive a phone call right after the scene where she tells her husband that he must be safe while racing. After hearing the other person, she becomes teary-eyed and the shock doesn't wear off. Instead, she attempts to tell Jin's father about what the call was all about. However, we don't hear what she has to say but it definitely is clear that she heard bad news. 

Right after, we also see Hwan running hurriedly and he also looks extremely worried. Will the upcoming episode feature Jin's death? Is that how Hwan will get another chance with Ye-ji or is the promo an attempt at hyping up the upcoming episode? It hasn't been too long since Ye-ji and Jin are married so for their life together to end abruptly would be tragic.

Even if Hwan and Ye-ji get closer to each other after this, we are not sure how convincing their relationship will be and if they can manage to move away from the shadow that will be present of Hwan's brother Jin. 'When I was Most Beautiful' will air on MBC on Wednesdays and Thursdays at 9.30 pm KST. It will be available on Viu outside South Korea.
