«You're a spy, aren't you?» Episode 10 of « 100 Days of Deception » ended with this direct question, posed by Kim Tae-woong to Lee Ga-kyeong. In episode 11, which aired this Saturday, his doubts won’t let him go. And now he’s questioning everything about the young woman, starting with her alleged affair with Yoo Philip.
Warning: Spoilers for Episode 10.
A rescue that raised suspicions
After the attack on the General Government, Yoo So-ran (Kim Hyun-joo) found herself among the suspects. Thanks to her quick thinking, Ga-kyeong (Kim You-jung) managed to get her out of trouble.
But this daring move came at a price. Seeing her in action, Tae-woong (Park Jin-young) realized that she knew much more than she was letting on. That explains her question at the end of the episode, which leaves viewers in suspense.
A relationship that's falling apart
Ever since she began her undercover mission, Ga-kyeong has been hiding behind a very convenient cover story: a supposed relationship with Yoo Philip (Lee Moo-saeng). It’s a story she made up from scratch to justify her presence and her comings and goings.
But here's the thing: if Tae-woong suspects her of being a spy, he has no reason to believe this romance is real. And he's determined to get to the bottom of it.
A glass under high voltage
New footage shows him arriving late at night at Yoo Philip’s place. As he sits down for a drink with the alleged couple, Tae-woong no longer looks at them the same way: his gaze scrutinizes their every gesture and every exchange.
Ga-kyeong, on the other hand, can’t hide her unease. She seems to have fully grasped what the young man is after. Yoo Philip, on the other hand, remains disarmingly calm, as if nothing were wrong. A composure that could very well save the day… or only serve to fuel suspicion.
This face-off comes at a pivotal moment. Just a few episodes ago, Tae-woong and Ga-kyeong finally confessed their feelings for each other, embracing in the rain on the special poster for the second half of the series. Now, their trust is wavering. And if Tae-woong discovers the truth, both their relationship and the survival of the independence movement will be at stake.
Still at the Top
The series remains one of cable TV's flagship shows: Episode 9 drew a 7.4 % rating, a record for a Saturday.
Episode 11 of «100 Days of Deception» will air this Saturday, November 14, at 9:10 p.m. (Korean time)—which is 1:10 p.m. in France—on tvN and Netflix.
