“Red Balloon” has shared a sneak peek of Lee Sang Woo and Seo Ji Hye’s dangerous rendezvous together!
Starring Seo Ji Hye, Lee Sung Jae, Hong Soo Hyun, and Lee Sang Woo, “Red Balloon” is a thrilling yet passionate story about the sense of deprivation we all feel when comparing ourselves to others, the thirst of jealous ambition, and our struggles to quench that thirst. Seo Ji Hye stars as Jo Eun Kang, who dreams of becoming a teacher but instead works as a tutor after consistently failing her employment exams. Lee Sang Woo plays Han Ba Da’s (Hong Soo Hyun’s) husband Go Cha Won, who is a dermatologist.
Previously in episode 6 of “Red Balloon,” Jo Eun Kang’s misunderstanding about her friend of 20 years Han Ba Da as well as her longtime desire for Go Cha Won continued to build. Jo Eun Kang turned cold to Han Ba Da, who introduced her to a divorced man with a child, and made a plan to go to Sokcho alone with just Go Cha Won.
Amidst all this, the newly released stills capture Jo Eun Kang and Go Cha Won spending a good time together at the beach at night, building tension. Jo Eun Kang, who is usually calm and expressionless, shows a big bright smile that has never been seen before, and Go Cha Won takes off his jacket and puts it around Jo Eun Kang affectionately.
In the next stills, Go Cha Won grabs Jo Eun Kang to save her from stumbling. As their eyes meet, they stand still while exchanging gazes. Viewers are curious to find out what will happen by the end of their long night at the beach where there are just the two of them.
The production team remarked, “Jo Eun Kang, who turns to the dark side, will surprise viewers with her meticulous plans that no one can expect. Please look forward to this week’s broadcast which will feature a prelude to the breathtaking whirlwind in which [viewers] can see whether Go Cha Won will be shaken by Jo Eun Kang, who approaches him straightforwardly.”
The next episode of “Red Balloon” airs on January 7 at 9:10 p.m. KST.
