The woman hears some who are banging on the door of her house when they enter the home only to discover her in shock.
The Episode Review
The episode is likely to be an unpleasant go for many, and it is interesting to see the brutal murder of Sang-woo by Jae-sang in about 10 mins or even. It’s a bit disheartening to think that Sang-ha has let this take place in order to make money. It’s ironic that her father left the orchids to her, and how she turned things around by bringing back those orchids.
Little Women is nuanced with its narrative and how the viewers were initially led to believe that it was Jae-sang is the key manipulator, and Sang-ha was just a pawn but then it was reversed. The wealthy and the poor I am happy that Hyo-rin, In-hye, and Hyo-rin finally have a place to escape and are safe from the war.
I think the girls will be given an even bigger role to play when they finish the series as we enter the final week. I don’t believe that Do-il betrayed Injoo by stealing her money, even as she’s detained as seen during the show’s preview. I believe this is part of his strategy and that he’s really doing this to deflect any actions Sang-ha may have made up against the Oh sisters.
