Anyeong, chingudeul!
What drama do you want to start the weekend with? I have a review of a drama that just aired on June 20 2015, the title is My Beautiful Bride .
This drama is very romantic, lots of tension and fighting. Not bad for those who don't really like Korean dramas with a high level of romance.
Korean drama viewers are probably already familiar with loan shark characters, right? Many Korean dramas include loan sharks in their stories, right? Usually it's just about the main character being chased by debt collectors, but not too detailed about what and how is behind the loan shark mafia.
Well, My Beautiful Bride actually makes loan sharks the focus of the story. So, in Korea, this loan shark 'business' is very popular because they can provide loans without many conditions, unlike banks. But the problem is, what if the debt cannot be paid off?
The borrower will be kidnapped by debt collectors to be sold as a prostitute, or have both their legs cut off and become a beggar, or become a laborer with inhumane working hours. But in the end it's still the same: their organs will be taken to be sold (oh scary....)
And behind the loan sharks, there is someone called Shadow. They are the ones who provide the money to be loaned, and also the ones behind the trafficking and organ sales business
Cha Yoon Mi (played by Lee Si Young) is a detective who is very determined to catch Shadow. For two years she worked hard until she finally found someone in the organization who was willing to be an informant. From this informant, they learned that the Shadow was named Song Hak Soo (played by Lee Jae Yong).
Cha Yoon Mi and her partner, Park Hyung Sik (played by Park Hae Joon) managed to catch Song Hak Soo. It seemed that one of the loan shark victims was Cha Yoon Mi's family, because he kept a photo of the victim in his hat and carried it everywhere.
Song Hak Soo was sentenced to ten years in prison. Cha Yoon Mi was relieved and thought this was the ending.
It was later discovered that a super beautiful girl named Yoon Joo Young (played by Ko Sung Hee) who was the informant was willing to take this risk because she met her first love, Kim Do Hyung (played by Kim Moo Yul).
At that time, Joo Young was saving money at Kim Do Hyung's place of work and Joo Young saw Do Hyung. Maybe since then he decided to live in the right way, chingudeul. Then, Joo Young intelligently makes strategies to get closer to Do Hyung. The strategy worked smoothly. Maybe you can imitate this, chingudeul, hihihi...
Do Hyung is the son of a rich man, a banker too, but his life is really efficient: he goes everywhere by bicycle. Even so, he bought Joo Young a car. Would you like to have a boyfriend who isn't stingy like this :D
And Do Hyung is so stiff, like a dry chamois. In this drama, it is also shown through conversations that people think it is strange that a woman as beautiful as Joo Young wants to be with Do Hyung. But when he's with Joo Young, he's really cute.

They dated, then lived together for two years. This news apparently also reached the ears of Song Hak Soo in prison. It's still unclear what Joo Young's relationship with Hak Soo is, but Hak Soo calls her 'My woman,' so perhaps they used to have a close relationship.
Do Hyung proposed to Joo Young, but he hasn't answered yet. Joo Young still has doubts. However, as soon as she found out she was pregnant, Joo Young immediately steadied herself to answer 'yes'. So, that afternoon, she called Do Hyung and said that she wanted to marry Do Hyung. He also asked to buy chicken first at a restaurant that had just opened near their apartment.
After that, Joo Young got a call.
When he came home, Do Hyung couldn't find Joo Young anywhere. Four days later, Do Hyung reported it to the police. He was handled by Detective Kim, whose comments were so annoying that Do Hyung couldn't stand it and punched him. Yoon Mi also saw this excitement, and later Yoon Mi found out that Do Hyung was the future husband of her former informant. Yoon Mi decides to handle this case, assisted by Detective Kim and Detective Oh.
Meanwhile, Yoon Mi discovered several oddities about Do Hyung. For example, the owner of the restaurant where Joo Young asked to buy chicken was actually Do Hyung's classmate, but Do Hyung denied it.
Do Hyung also just found out about Joo Young's pregnancy from his future sister-in-law. As soon as he found out about this, he immediately bought a baby crib and decorated the room like a normal father waiting for the birth of his baby. Even though Joo Young still hasn't been found, his calm is suspicious.
Apart from that, behind his dry kanebo personality, it turns out that when he was in the military, he was part of the UDT Team in the navy. The UDT team was famous for its fighting abilities, one person was able to fight 17 people with his bare hands. Ah, how cool...
Yoon Mi is sure that Do Hyung must be hiding a lot of things, which will make the investigation difficult if he doesn't want to open up.
Yoon Mi confides in Park Hyung Sik. When he decided to visit Hak Soo in prison, one of his men came with news that Song Hak Soo had been released on parole last week.
Do Hyung finds the phone number in Joo Young's car, but when he wants to report it to the police station, he overhears Detective Kim gossiping about it. Perhaps annoyed, Do Hyung decides to investigate the phone number himself.
The owner of that number is actually Park Joon Beom, one of his manager Do Hyung's favorite customers because he is never late in paying his loans.

Thanks to his friend's help, Do Hyung managed to get the loan shark's address. Do Hyung stalks him away. It turns out, Joon Beom is the customer who Do Hyung asked to entertain this morning.
When he came home, Do Hyung asked Joon Beom why Joo Young had his phone number. Because he was afraid, especially after seeing Do Hyung's fighting skills, Joon Beom ran away. On the way, he stopped and asked the police for help. Do Hyung is being chased. He called Yoon Mi, asking for help. Yoon Mi comes.
But one of the police who arrested Do Hyung saw something odd in Do Hyung's trunk. He asked Do Hyung to open it. And there, jeng jeng, was Song Hak Soo's corpse!
And that's the ending of episode two.
It's crazy, the plot is really cool, hihihi....
