KBS 2TV weekend drama ‘The real thing has appeared!’ aired on the 29th. Episode 11 continued its heat with a viewership rating of 20.5% (provided by Nielsen Korea, based on households nationwide), the highest among all programs aired on Saturday.
In particular, an interesting development unfolded as Baek Jin-hee (played by Oh Yeon-du) and Ahn Jae-hyeon (played by Gong Tae-kyung) began living together for three months.
In yesterday's broadcast, Oh Yeon-doo drew attention with her extraordinary coping skills. Yeon-doo, who moved into Gong Tae-kyung's home to live together for three months, received a baptism of salt from Eun Geum-sil (played by Kang Bu-ja), and was taken aback for a moment, saying, "I guess it's expensive salt." “I chewed some king salt and it wasn’t salty at all,” he said, showing a natural response.
Yeondu and Taekyung made every effort to avoid their families finding out that they were in a contractual relationship. Tae-kyung delivered a fake, but 'housemate rule' document to Yeon-du, who was living with him, and when Yeon-du saw it, she was dumbfounded by his absurd suggestion. Meanwhile, Gong Myeong (played by Yoo Jae Yi) suddenly appeared in the two people's separate house, and Tae Kyung made viewers laugh by acting like he didn't know what to do, putting the documents in his mouth to avoid being seen.
Yeondu's family was depressed when she left home to live together. Kang Bong-nim (Kim Hye-ok), Kang Dae-sang (Ryu Jin), Oh Dong-wook (Choi Yoon-je), and Oh Soo-gyeom (Jeong Seo-yeon) were unable to endure Yeon-du's absence and suffered from dyslexia and insomnia.
Jang Se-jin (played by Cha Joo-young), who predicted revenge after her marriage to Tae-kyung, submitted a letter of resignation to the company of Gong Chan-sik (played by Hong Yo-seop), where she was working. In response, Chansik called Sejin to the company and suggested that she be appointed to the U.S. branch, and she responded that she would think about it, implying that another situation would arise.
Yeondu announced the beginning of her life as a full-fledged in-laws by preparing for Tae-kyung's grandfather's ancestral rites. Meanwhile, a conflict arose between Yeon-du and Yeom Soo-jeong (played by Yoon Joo-hee) while preparing for the ancestral rites, creating tension. Yeom Soo-jeong, who found a text message that Kim Jun-ha (played by Jeong Eui-je) sent to Yeon-du before leaving Korea, became suspicious of their relationship, and she began to cry bitterly, asking, “What did I do so wrong?” In addition, he said to Soo-jung, who had suffered a painful miscarriage, “You haven’t had a child yet,” which heightened the conflict and made viewers nervous.
On the other hand, Tae-kyung did not understand Yeon-du, who was caught up in her family. As misunderstandings arose with the family due to Yeon-du's statement that she was not aware of Sujeong's miscarriage, Tae-kyung firmly told her not to get involved with the family. However, when Yeon-du was sending another war under Geum-sil's guidance, Tae-kyung, who was angry, pressed her and started an argument. After learning of her situation where it was difficult for her to refuse, he sent a war on Yeon-du's behalf and told his family, "I will do anything. “Stop harassing people,” he said, surprising everyone.
At the end of the broadcast, Yeon-du and Tae-kyung's fake acting as a married couple was in danger of being discovered. I participated in my grandfather's ancestral rites for the first time and felt a strange, yet fake feeling. When Yeon-du said that they felt like they had become a real family, Tae-kyung said, “We are not real,” and Tae-kyung’s family, except for Geum-sil, heard this. It raised curiosity about the next episode and how they would overcome this situation amidst the family's suspicions.
