ENA’s drama “The Kidnapping Day” has shared brand-new stills from its third episode!
Based on the novel of the same name, “The Kidnapping Day” is a black comedy about a special alliance between a blundering kidnapper and a genius 11-year-old girl. Yoon Kye Sang plays Kim Myung Joon, a first-time kidnapper who abducts an 11-year-old girl to raise money for his daughter’s hospital fees.
Yoo Na of “Pachinko” plays genius girl Choi Ro Hee, who has a cynical and exceptional mind despite her young age and forms a strange bond with Kim Myung Joon. Kim Shin Rok plays Seo Hye Eun, Kim Myung Joon’s mysterious ex-wife who suddenly left him and their daughter three years ago, only to return and propose that Kim Myung Joon kidnap Choi Ro Hee.
Previously on “The Kidnapping Day,” Kim Myung Joon started living with Ro Hee after his plans to kidnap her in order to pay for his daughter’s hospital bills failed. He also faced an unexpected crisis after Choi Ro Hee lost all her memories and her parents were murdered. Park Sang Yoon (Park Sung Hoon), the detective investigating the murder case, named Myung Joon as a suspect after he was captured on CCTV footage in front of Ro Hee’s house.
In the upcoming third episode of the drama, shocking truths and secrets will be revealed. Choi Ro Hee, who signed an agreement with Kim Myung Joon, meets Seo Hye Eun, the mastermind behind the kidnapping, and hears stories about herself and her parents. On the other hand, Park Sang Yoon, who was confused because he couldn’t understand Kim Myung Joon’s true intentions, comes across the research that Ro Hee’s father Choi Jin Tae (Jeon Kwang Jin) had been conducting while he was still alive.
In the first set of newly released stills, Kim Myung Joon and Choi Ro Hee pay Seo Hye Eun a visit after escaping from the police. Choi Ro Hee and Seo Hye Eun, who are meeting each other for the first time, are engaged in an unusual battle of nerves as they stare intensely at each other. Unable to take sides between Ro Hee and his ex-wife, Kim Myung Joon paces around anxiously.
In another photo, Park Sang Yoon and other detectives from the violent crime team seem to be tracking the whereabouts of Kim Myung Joon, who has been identified as a suspect in the murders and kidnapping that occurred in Yongin, where there had been no murders for the past three years.
After watching the CCTV footage, Park Sang Yoon is captured having a serious conversation with team leader Nam Ki Ho (Kwak Ja Hyung). It remains to be seen what kinds of truths Park Sang Yoon will uncover through his investigation.
The production team of “The Kidnapping Day” commented, “Seo Hye Eun’s story will start unfolding in earnest. The reason why she picked Choi Ro Hee as the target of the kidnapping, as well as the special identity of the genius girl Choi Ro Hee, will be revealed. Please look out for clues to the truth that detective Park Sang Yoon will find.”
The next episode of “The Kidnapping Day” airs on September 20 at 9 p.m. KST.
