Kim Tae-hee and Lim Ji-yeon's first meeting was revealed.
The first episode of Genie TV's original drama 'House with a Yard', which aired for the first time on the 19th, depicts the story of two women, Joo-ran (Kim Tae-hee) and Sang-eun (Lim Ji-yeon), who live in opposite realities.
On this day's broadcast, the story of Juran was first unfolded. Joo-ran's family, who lives in Cornelia, a perfectly maintained rural housing complex, has a precarious inner situation contrary to its appearance. Joo-ran has been suffering from extreme anxiety and nervous breakdown for a long time due to the trauma of witnessing the body of her deceased sister in the past. As her sister's death date approached, Juran's condition worsened, and even though it had been three months since she moved in, she cut off all contact with her neighbors and lived as if she was confined to the house.
Then, on September 18, Joo-ran felt a disgusting stench leaking from the backyard. However, when Jae-ho (played by Seong-oh Kim), the only husband she trusted and relied on, doubted the smell of natural fertilizer, saying, "It doesn't smell at all," Joo-ran also suppressed her reluctance. However, Juran's suspicions about the stench in the backyard grew stronger. Hearing his neighbor Hae-soo (played by Jeong Woon-seon) muttering, "Oh, what a smell" in front of Joo-ran's house. Jae-ho acted calmly, but in Ju-ran's mind, the doubt that he had struggled to suppress sprouted again.
Along with this, the image of Jaeho, a doctor, arguing over the phone with Yoon Beom (played by Jaerim Choi), a drug salesperson, was shown late at night, and an unknown fear encroached on Juran's house, making the viewer sweat. The next day, the 19th, Ju-ran, who was trying to get rid of his thoughts while cleaning the house, suddenly remembered the words of Hae-soo last night and followed him home. Hae-su said, "It's not the smell of fertilizer. It seems that something is rotting in the ground," triggering Ju-ran's suspicions, and Ju-ran, who decided to check everything with his own eyes, finally took a shovel and dug into the backyard.
On September 18, Sang-eun endured Yoon-beom's habitual assault with the body of a pregnant woman and was living a miserable reality. However, Sang-eun's struggle to escape the hellish reality continued quietly. Sang-eun recorded the scene of Yoon-beom's assault through a hidden camera, and prepared evidence for the divorce suit step by step, such as taking pictures of Yoon-beom's assault in the bathroom with a cell phone camera while he was sleeping.
The next day, after finishing work, Sang-eun got into Yoon-beom's car and headed to his parents' house for a night fishing appointment. At this time, Sang-eun was puzzled by the fact that Yoon-beom stopped by a place called Cornelia. To Sang-eun, Yoon-beom pointed to a large fishing bag in the back seat and said, "How much do you think it would be if we filled the bag with 50,000 won bills? A baby will be born soon, so we should take a look at it like everyone else." Shouldn't we live?" He raised doubts by saying an unknown story.
Moreover, in the early morning of the 20th, Sang-eun's suspicious behavior was caught, raising the viewer's curiosity. Apparently, it was because Sang-eun, who went to her parents' house with Yoon-beom in the late afternoon the previous day, arrived at her parents' house at dawn the next day. Moreover, the sight of Sang-eun drenched in rain and lying next to her mother, making strange noises as if sobbing, aroused curiosity about what had happened to him all night.
It was shocking to see Sang-eun, who was leaving her parents' house, receive a phone call and say, "Mom, my husband is dead" as if talking to someone else while talking on the phone. In addition, in the ending, on September 19th, when she was wandering through the backyard as if possessed by something, Juran's appearance was reflected again. Ju-ran eventually found the hand of a rotten body in his backyard, and the appearance of Ju-ran bursting into laughter with a bizarre expression caused goosebumps throughout the body of the viewer.
