Strong Woman Do Bong Soon DramaBeans Recaps

Episode 4: Her Identity

After kidnapping his third victim, the Masked Man disposes of any evidence with alarming ease, destroying both the car and license plate at a scrap yard before carrying the stolen woman away.

That same night, Min-hyuk finds himself sitting on the couch that Bong-soon slept on. Smiling to himself, he remembers how she easily dragged the full-grown motorcyclist to the rooftop. He decides that this level of strength is far beyond normal.

Said abnormal girl is currently busy designing a video game character based on herself, when Gook-doo calls her to check if she staying with her boss again. Bong-soon confirms she’s at her own home, and Gook-doo immediately starts nagging advising her “as a friend” to behave more maturely (i.e. don’t stay overnight at a man’s house).

Bong-soon pouts but meekly agrees, until Gook-doo asks her to pass on his thanks to her brother for helping Hee-ji (Gook-doo’s girlfriend) at the hospital. This proves to be too much for Bong-soon, and she tells Gook-doo to say it himself. “I also know how to get upset and mad. I have a heart and that heart can get hurt as well.”

Gook-doo is stunned by her outburst but not entirely clueless, since he answers back that the two of them are just friends, and he’s just saying this for her sake. But Bong-soon’s on a roll now and yells that she knows they’re only friends before hanging up. Still mad, she thinks that this was the first time she ever hung up on Gook-doo and how it’s not just her strength but her own emotions that are getting harder to control.

With an impeccable sense of timing, Min-hyuk chooses that moment to call his bodyguard and pepper her with questions about her strength, wanting to know exactly how strong she is. Bong-soon makes a valiant effort to rein in her temper and keep things professional until Min-hyuk adds, “By chance, are you a man?”

Temper be damned, Bong-soon yells back, “Why? If I were a man, would you want to go out with me?” (Hah!) Min-hyuk remains implacably curious, saying it makes no sense for her to be that strong. He even asks if she could break a boulder with her head, but that proves to be too much. Roaring into the phone, Bong-soon warns, “You’ll find out if you try hitting your head against mine tomorrow. See if your skull breaks or not!” She hangs up, and both Min-hyuk and Bong-soon call the other crazy.

Just then, there’s a knock on Bong-soon’s bedroom door. In strolls Gook-doo, wearing his uniform and a sweet smile as he holds out his hand to her. Bong-soon gazes beatifically at her at crush and shyly reaches out to hold his hand, but just before their fingers touch, her hand is slapped away by… Min-hyuk!?

Oh. My. Gawd! Dressed in woman’s clothing and wearing a wig, a pretty Min-hyuk steps between the two. He glares at Bong-soon, then turns sexy eyes on Gook-doo. Pulling the utterly confused Gook-doo in close, Min-hyuk spins them around and slooowly slides his hands down to Gook-doo’s backside. Omo!

Giving a coquettish smile, Min-hyuk flips up the back of Gook-soo’s jacket andgrabs his butt! He even gives it an extra squeeze (who can blame him?) as he tosses a territorial look at Bong-soon. She in turn gives an almighty, “Nooooo…” and flails herself awake. Mortified, Bong-soon spends a few moments tossing in her bed, ranting at her “dirty dream.”

Back in the real world, Gook-doo listens as his superior gives a pretty speech about using clues from his beloved TV show to help solve their current case. It would be fairly impressive, except his impassioned findings are soundly debunked when the solemn Gook-doo points out the TV victims and the kidnapper’s victims have nothing in common. Sorry, Sherlock.

At the walnut shop, Mom holds court with her ladies. The three are arguing because one of the women has a family connection in a company that builds shopping complexes, the very company that is fighting for the land slated to the redevelopment project. In light of this, the woman asks the others to withdraw their support of the redevelopment — and in return, she’ll use her connections to get them deals in the new shopping mall. Mom likes this idea, but maintains that they need to consult an expert.
