In relation to this, we have summarized three viewing points that will make you more interested in watching the live broadcast of ‘Mr. Park’s Contract Marriage’.

What will Park Yeon-woo (Lee Se-young) do after the truth ending? Will her relationship with Kang Tae-ha be okay?

In episodes 9 and 10, the key question is what actions Park Yeon-woo will take after learning that his death was caused by a 'virtuous woman'. In episode 8, when Park Yeon-woo received his watch from Sa-wol (played by Joo Hyun-young), he heard the surprising story, "This Kang family killed Baby Seal," and then found a ''' with his name engraved on the mountain behind Kang Sang-mo's (played by Cheon Ho-jin) house. When I discovered the 'Vicious Woman's Monument', I was so shocked that I fainted.

In addition, after Park Yeon-woo found out that the stepmother of the Joseon master had poisoned him and that she had also killed her own father, she realized that the Kang family was the root of all the culprits. There is curiosity about whether Park Yeon-woo will face a new situation with Kang Tae-ha amidst the bad relationship with Kang Tae-ha's family, and what action Park Yeon-woo will take after learning the truth.

Kang Tae-ha vs. Kang Sang-mo The confrontation begins in earnest

In episodes 9 and 10, the conflict between Kang Sang-mo and Kang Tae-ha is expected to intensify. In the 7th episode, when noise broke out ahead of the 1st anniversary exhibition event, Kang Sang-mo pressured Kang Tae-ha to withdraw from the event and also urged Park Yeon-woo to quit.

However, Kang Tae-ha stood firm against Kang Sang-mo, saying, "Neither I nor Yeon-woo will give up on the 1st anniversary event," and even when a problem arose on the day of the event, he expressed his firm intention, saying, "I want to protect both Yeon-woo and this show," which made Kang Sang-mo feel bad. It was twisted.

In episode 8, the full story was revealed that Kang Sang-mo had Yoo Ha-na (played by Kwon A-reum) spy on Kang Tae-ha. Attention is being paid to the outcome of the conflict between Kang Tae-ha, who begins to change after meeting Park Yeon-woo, and Kang Sang-mo, who finds Kang Tae-ha annoying.

What is the fate of Kang Tae-ha?

The final point to watch in episodes 9 and 10 is the direction of Kang Tae-ha's fate. After Kang Tae-ha met Park Yeon-woo, heart pain became more frequent and he was eventually diagnosed with a serious heart condition, casting an ominous tone.

Not only that, the moment Kang Tae-ha suddenly suffered heart pain, Cheon Myeong (played by Lee Young-jin) appeared and made him see Park Yeon-woo in the Joseon Dynasty and Park Yeon-woo's appearance as a Joseon master, heightening the tension. In addition, Cheonmyeong said meaningful words to Kang Tae-ha, saying, “Now do you understand the fate that repeats itself?”, amplifying curiosity about how Kang Tae-ha’s fate will unfold.

The production team said, “In the 9th and 10th episodes of ‘Mr. Park’s Contract Marriage,’ the ‘vortex of fate’ will become even stronger after the truth of Park Yeon-woo’s death is revealed.” They added, “We will see how Park Yeon-woo and Kang Tae-ha, who are caught in the middle of the storm, will handle the situation. “Please wait and see if we can overcome it,” he said.
