Yuk Seong-jae and Kim Ji-yeon entered the mysterious palace swallowed by the eight-foot demon.

In episode 2 of SBS Friday-Saturday drama ‘Gwigung’ (written by Yoon Soo-jung and directed by Yoon Sung-sik)that aired on the 19th, the great human adaptation period of Kang Cheol(played by Yook Sung-jae), the first Imoogi to inhabit a human body in a thousand years, unfolded, while Yeo-ri struggled to find the soul of Yoon Gap(played by Yook Sung-jae)who died in the palace after hearing his voice.

The broadcast that day began with Kang Cheol, who was possessed by Yoon Gap, and Yeo-ri regaining consciousness in the palace after the cliff fall incident.Yeo-ri thought that Kang Cheol had hurt Yoon Gap, but she was confused when she learned that Yoon Gap had been stabbed with a sword and suffered internal injuries.On the other hand, Kang Cheol, who regained his energy with his terrifying resilience, fell into a state of deep immersion in the five senses of humanity that he had never experienced before.After tasting a spoonful of the rice wine, Kang Cheol was intoxicated by the ecstasy of taste and exclaimed, “The five senses of humanity, the tongue, how ecstatic are they,” as he greedily drank the rice wine in the middle of the palace.

At that moment, the strange howl of the eight-legged ghost pierced Kangcheol’s ears.Kangcheol was worried that Yeo-ri would become the target of the eight-legged ghost, so he quickly tried to take her out of the palace.However, at the same time, Yeo-ri was entranced by the voice of the spirit of Yoon-gap calling her and headed to the well, where she was attacked by the eerie water ghost Ok-im(played by Song Soo-yi)who was lurking in the well.Ok-im had imitated the voice of the spirit of Yoon-gap to lure Yeo-ri.Kangcheol, sensing Yeo-ri’s danger, immediately jumped into the well with his injured body and successfully subdued the water ghost, saving Yeo-ri’s life.However, Yeo-ri, who thought that Kangcheol’s actions were only due to his desire for ascension, ignored Kangcheol’s concern and only thought about how to retrieve the spirit of Yoon-gap who was wandering around the palace.

Meanwhile, Yeo-ri is surprised to learn that King Lee Jeong(played by Kim Ji-hoon)does not need a new pair of glasses, contrary to Yoon-gap’s request to make one.Furthermore, the egg of Lee Jeong’s favorite glasses is not ordinary glass, but a stone that wards off ghosts, and the strange atmosphere surrounding the palace is heightened.


In the meantime, Kang Cheol was unable to escape from Yoon Gap’s body no matter what he did, and due to Kang Cheol’s continued antics, the palace quickly became abuzz with rumors of ‘Kim Seo-gwan Yoon’s insanity ‘.When even the servants began to whisper, “Is Yoon Gap really that reckless?” , “Isn’ t she losing her memory? Isn’t she just crazy?” , Yeo-ri became furious at Kang Cheol’s behavior of acting like a bum while wearing Yoon Gap’s face.Yeo-ri snapped at Kang Cheol in front of his face, saying, “That’s the most precious face to me, but inside it is you, the person I hate the most.This is a terrible nightmare.” Kang Cheol’s stern face makes one curious to see how their complicated relationship will change.

At the end of the broadcast, Kang Cheol and Yeo-ri were threatened, heightening the tension.Yeo-ri thought that Ok-im, the ghost of Su-sal-gwi, would know the whereabouts of Yoon-gap’s spirit, so she prayed to call out to Ok-im.Ok-im gave Yeo-ri a terrifying warning that Yoon-gap’s spirit had already been eaten by Pal-chuk-gwi, and that if she met Yoon-gap’s spirit, she would not be able to avoid death.At that moment, Kang Cheol-i, who felt a suspicious atmosphere in the palace, tensed up and said, “It’s him.Pal-chuk-gwi.” Also, at the same time, Won-sa Lee Gwang(played by Park Jae-joon), who had been suffering from madness, suddenly had a seizure, and the horrifying face of Pal-chuk-gwi, stained blood red, appeared over Won-sa’s face, revealing that Pal-chuk-gwi was at the center of the ominous incident that had taken over the palace.
