Lee Hae-young had killed Park Hyung-sik in the past too.

The 11th episode of the SBS Friday-Saturday drama ‘Treasure Island’ (written by Lee Myung-hee and directed by Jin Chang-gyu), which aired on the 28th, recorded 11.7% nationwide and 11.9% in the metropolitan area. The peak viewership rating soared to 12.9%, and the 2049 viewership rating also recorded 3.1%. (Nielsen Korea)

On this day, Seo Dong-joo (played by Park Hyung-sik), who was faced with the secret of his birth, made a big decision for the sake of his lover, Yeo Eun-nam (played by Hong Hwa-yeon). However, that decision proved meaningless, and another truth from the past was revealed, shocking not only Seo Dong-joo in the drama but also the viewers in front of the TV.

Earlier, Seo Dong-joo found out the secret of his birth that he and Yeo Eun-nam might be half-siblings. Seo Dong-ju was confused when he saw Yeo Eun-nam, who divorced him to get back at him without knowing anything, but he decided to cover up the truth for her sake.

However, Seo Dong-ju really wanted to know the truth. Was it Heo Il-do (Lee Hae-young) who killed Yeo Soon-ho (Joo Sang-wook), who might be his biological father, as Yeo Eun-nam suspected?

In the meantime, the power structure of Daesan Group began to shake as Chairman Cha Kang-cheon (Woo Hyun) declared his marriage to Ji Young-soo (Do Ji-won) in order to establish his illegitimate child Ji Sun-woo (Cha Woo-min) as the successor to Daesan Group. While the eldest daughter Cha Deok-hee (Kim Jung-nan) was extremely angry, the eldest son-in-law Heo Il-do and second daughter Cha Gook-hee (Hong Soo-hyun), who had been caught in Seo Dong-ju‘s weakness, stood on Cha Kang-cheon’s side. Ji Young-soo and Ji Sun-woo also reveal their desire for Daesan Group.


In the meantime, Seo Dong-ju once again goes to see Yeom Jang-sun (played by Heo Jun-ho) to increase the level of pressure. Yeom Jang-sun warns Seo Dong-ju, “If you give him food, he‘s just a goldfish that desperately sticks its beak out and eats it while freaking out. No matter how hard you try, he’s just a number one goldfish that gets fed first.” Seo Dong-ju confronts him, saying, “The person feeding him now is Seo Dong-ju. The number one goldfish getting fed is Yeom Jang-sun.”

It was a scene where the two men‘s desires really sparkled. After Seo Dong-ju leaves, Yeom Jang-sun says, “That guy is better than my father. It’s a shame to kill him,” which raises suspicions by making remarks that seem like he knows something. Above all, it was a moment when Yeom Jang-seon‘s wickedness exploded, giving viewers goosebumps.

Seo Dong-ju, who had been suffering from nightmares about the car accident, attempted hypnosis again. And the shocking truth of that day was revealed. One night, when young Seong-hyeon was heading somewhere in a car driven by Yeo Soon-ho, a large car approached from behind and hit the car they were in. Heo Il-do, who was following them in another car, received the results of a genetic test from the manager that said, “Yeo Soon-ho and Chu Sung-hyun are the biological children.”

After being in a car accident once, young Seong-hyeon, who was still awake, cried out to Heo Il-do to save him. Heo Il-do clearly saw Seong-hyeon, but instead of saving him, he went back to his car. Then, with a tissue in his mouth, he pushed the car carrying Yeo Soon-ho and young Seong-hyeon over the guardrail. Heo Il-do’s car also crashed down the cliff. Seo Dong-ju screamed, “The old man killed us.”

Heo Il-do, who shot Seo Dong-ju after hearing Yeom Jang-seon’s words, had also driven Seo Dong-ju to death in the past. At the same time, as Yeo Eun-nam suspected, Heo Il-do also killed Yeo Soon-ho, who may have been Seo Dong-ju’s biological father as well as Yeo Eun-nam’s biological father. Now, Seo Dong-ju’s desire for revenge cannot help but burn even hotter.
