Lim Ji-yeon and Chu Young-woo‘s path to pioneering their fates is reaching its final hurdle.

With only two episodes left until the end of JTBC’s Saturday-Sunday drama ‘Madam Ok‘s Story’ (written by Park Ji-sook, directed by Jin Hyeok and Choi Bo-yoon), attention is focused on the fate of Ok Tae-young (played by Lim Ji-yeon) and Cheon Seung-hwi (played by Chu Young-woo), who are caught in a desperate trap. Accordingly, the production team has compiled a list of must-watch points for the last week.

According to the production team, Ok Tae-young first hides her identity as a runaway slave and takes over the real Ok Tae-young’s (played by Son Na-eun) dream and puts down roots in Cheongsu-hyeon. In particular, he lived a life as a nobleman, completely different from his former landlady who had abused and persecuted him, as he had suffered hardships living in the lowest social status.

However, his life was once again put in jeopardy when he encountered his former landlady, Kim So-hye (played by Ha Yul-ri), with whom he had a bitter and bitter relationship. On top of this, the full-scale movements of the Minister of Taxation Park Joon-gi (played by Choi Jung-woo), who had been coveting Ok Tae-young‘s weakness, were added, and in the end, Ok Tae-young was caught and his identity was revealed. Attention is focused on whether Ok Tae-young will be able to protect the freedom and independent life that he has built with his own strength.

In addition, the whereabouts of his father, Gae-juk-i (played by Lee Sang-hee), whom Ok Tae-young had longed for throughout his nobleman life, are also raising questions. Because her father, Gaejuk, disappeared without a trace the night before because he couldn’t be a burden to his daughter Gudeok, who ran away from her master‘s house and set off with him, Gudeok has been living as a nobleman for 10 years, but she misses her father so much that she wakes up with a start even in her sleep.

Cheon Seung-hwi asks the famous slave hunters for help, and Ok Tae-young asks her former slave colleagues about her father even while facing Kim So-hye, but her father’s whereabouts are still unknown. It is anticipated whether Ok Tae-young, who dreamed of running away from his master‘s house and living with his father in a house with an ocean view, will be able to meet his father.

More than anything, attention is focused on the future of Ok Tae-young and Cheon Seung-hwi, who shared true happiness as a fake couple after a long time. Even when they were living under their original identities, the two who had feelings for each other eventually ended up living as a couple due to Cheon Seung-hwi’s decision to jump into Ok Tae-young‘s life without hesitation after going through numerous misunderstandings.

However, they were caught pretending to be a fake couple while having the happiest time of their lives. Even though Ok Tae-young’s identity was revealed, she tried to save Cheon Seung-hwi, but he was also caught by the Uigeumbu, who revealed his old name, ‘Song Seo-in’. Attention is focused on what kind of ending the two people who are standing on the edge of a dangerous precipice will have.

Episode 15 of ‘The Story of Lady Ok’ will air at 10:30 p.m. on the 25th.
