TV Jan 25, 2025

Translation


Lim Ji-yeon finally stands before the judgment seat of truth and lies.

In episode 15 of JTBC‘s weekend drama ‘Madam Ok’s Story’ (written by Park Ji-sook, directed by Jin Hyeok and Choi Bo-yoon, produced by SLL, Corpus Korea), which will air on the 25th, an unprecedented ordeal awaits madam Ok Tae-young (played by Lim Ji-yeon), who was captured by the Office of the Inspector General as a runaway slave.

In the previous episode, Ok Tae-young was captured by the Office of the Inspector General who called her by her old name, ‘Gudeok-i’. Even when he ran into the landlady Kim So-hye (played by Ha Yul-ri) whom he had wanted to avoid so much, he showed a confident attitude without even batting an eye, and he even overcame momentary crises with the help of Mrs. Kim (played by Yoon Ji-hye), who knows Ok Tae-young‘s true identity.



Despite living as a true nobleman for the past 10 years, Ok Tae-young always lived with anxiety, to the point where he flinched at the sight of a slave hunter wandering the streets. Leaving this precarious life behind, Ok Tae-young is finally put in a position where his secret will be exposed to the world.

In the meantime, the revealed photos capture Ok Tae-young going through all kinds of hardships, drawing attention. It is even more heartbreaking to see her being dragged away by soldiers while tied up, and even to the point of being about to lose her way.

In particular, the look of Ok Tae-young’s eyes in her tired face is so earnest that we can see an unprecedented earnestness, drawing even more attention. We wonder what made Ok Tae-young, who never lost his dignity even when his hands and feet were trembling when facing his old master, so desperate.

Will Im Ji-yeon go from a respected noblewoman to a mere conman and runaway slave? You can meet her in episode 15 of JTBC‘s Sat-Sun drama ‘Lady Ok’s Story’, which airs tonight (the 25th) at 10:30 p.m.
