Gong Hyo-jin, successful pregnancy in zero gravity space… Lee Min-ho, father of the child, receives suspended sentence (Stardust)

Gong Hyo-jin became the first person in human history to succeed in becoming pregnant in zero gravity space.

Episode 15 of the tvN weekend drama ‘Ask the Stars’ (written by Seo Sook-hyang, directed by Park Shin-woo, planned by Studio Dragon, produced by KeyEast, MYM Entertainment), which aired on the 23rd, depicted the story of a dinosaur (played by Lee Min-ho) and Eve Kim (played by Gong Hyo-jin) who were separated by the atmosphere and found new life.

The dinosaur who conducted a banned experiment in space ended up losing its morula and being abandoned by the MZ Group, and was also stripped of its medical license, ordered to pay a huge amount of damages, and even received a suspended sentence, which was heartbreaking. When Eve Kim, who had decided to scrap the Morula, declared her separation, the dinosaur was left penniless.

Eve Kim, who had also been removed from her position as commander, was on the verge of losing her space scientist license, which made things even more shocking. However, Eve Kim still had the task of fixing the broken space station, so she headed to the space station to carry out her final mission without rest.

Unable to relieve her fatigue from going through so much, Eve Kim‘s physical condition began to change rapidly while she was on the mission in the space station. Feeling something was wrong, Eve Kim took out the pregnancy test stored in the space station module and was shocked to see two clear lines indicating her pregnancy.

Eve Kim, who had an ultrasound and found it hard to believe, sent the video to Jeon Yi-man (Im Sung-jae), an obstetrician and gynecologist, and confirmed her pregnancy. Unlike Earth, in space, where there is no gravity, no one has ever gotten pregnant or given birth, and since surgical operations are impossible, it was necessary to return to Earth for the safety of the mother.

However, Eve Kim ultimately chose to stay on the space station after hearing that the fetus could die while going down to Earth. She could not make another choice to kill a new life because she still felt guilty about discarding the morula created by the dinosaur.

Eve Kim was overwhelmed and afraid of having to do this alone. She called the dinosaur, the father of her child, several times to tell him about this, but the dinosaur, deeply depressed, avoided Eve Kim’s calls, leaving her feeling bitter. As if he had noticed Eve Kim‘s anxiety, the fetus’s heart beat unusually fast, adding to the tension.

At the same time, on Earth, Eve Kim‘s attending physician, Jeon Yi-man, was struggling to tell the dinosaur about Eve Kim’s pregnancy. The dinosaur, who had already firmly closed his heart, tried to ignore it, but he couldn‘t just ignore the ultrasound and text message sent by Eve Kim on Jeon Yi-man’s phone. The ending was the rapid heartbeat of the fetus in the black and white ultrasound image and the dinosaur‘s surprised look at it.

How will the dinosaur react to the ultrasound sent by Eve Kim? The final episode of tvN’s Sat-Sun drama ‘Ask the Stars’ will air tonight (the 23rd) at 9:20 p.m.
