[Asia Economy Reporter Kang Hyesoo] On the afternoon of the 9th, the OCN drama 'Rugal' aired a scene where Choi Jin-hyuk's wife takes her own life in front of him.

That day, Hwang Deuk-gu (Park Sung-woong) tells Kang Ki-beom (Choi Jin-hyuk) that he will tell him where his wife Kim Yeo-jin is, but says, "If you want to know, you have to get me out. Without any help until tomorrow morning." When Kang Ki-beom points out, "How can I believe that you will be safe until then?" Hwang Deuk-gu replies, "I saw it with my own eyes. On the way here. I felt so uneasy leaving only your wife behind," which made Kang Ki-beom conflicted.

Hwang Deuk-gu finds Kim Yeo-jin and says, "You treated this precious person carelessly," and orders, "Make sure she is properly managed." Then, when he says to Kim Yeo-jin, "Shall we talk? Especially about Kang Ki-beom," Kim Yeo-jin looks at Hwang Deuk-gu with surprised eyes.

Knowing that Kang Ki-beom has arrived, Hwang Deuk-gu drags Kim Yeo-jin around to lure Kang Ki-beom. Seeing Yeo-jin’s back, Kang Ki-beom shouts, "Yeo-jin!!" Hwang Deuk-gu and Kim Yeo-jin turn around and look at Kang Ki-beom. When Kim Yeo-jin tearfully says, "Ki-beom..." Hwang Deuk-gu snatches her away and runs off again.

Kang Ki-beom finally meets Kim Yeo-jin and they run away together. However, Hwang Deuk-gu threatens Kim Yeo-jin, saying, "Should I tell Kang Ki-beom how you have lived all this time?" Yeo-jin leaves the words, "It would have been better if we never met. It would have been better if I were not alive," then jumps into a car and commits suicide.

Kang Ki-beom sobs beside Yeo-jin’s body, which was hit by the car, and the Rugal members watch the scene with heavy hearts.

The OCN drama 'Rugal' airs every Saturday and Sunday at 10:50 PM.
