Drama 'Eye Shopping' Shocks Viewers with Bold Plot Twists

Amidst the rising controversy over Dex's acting skills, the drama 'Eye Shopping' has delivered a powerful shock and catharsis to viewers with its daring narrative.

In the third episode of ENA's Monday-Tuesday drama 'Eye Shopping', aired on the 28th, Kim Ah-hyun (played by Won Jin-ah) and other children uncovered the dark secrets of an illegal adoption organization, fueling their deep anger. The episode achieved a nationwide viewership rating of 2.3% and 2.7% in the metropolitan area, with peak ratings reaching 3.0% in the metropolitan area and 2.5% nationwide, marking a new high for the series.

During the episode, the children obtained a crucial clue about the organization from Somi's (played by Lee Na-eun) adoptive father, Han Chul-soo (played by Lim Jae-myung), but soon found themselves pursued by Jung Hyun (played by Kim Jin-young) and other members of the organization. After a tense chase, the children narrowly escaped danger. However, Jung Hyun reported to Kim Se-hee (played by Yum Jung-ah) that there were more survivors besides Choi Si-woo (played by Kang Ji-yong). Se-hee ominously remarked, "Bring them to me alive. Let's see how they've changed. Do they resemble me?" with a chilling smile.

The children, having narrowly evaded Jung Hyun's pursuit, visited the hospital where Somi's adoptive mother, Im Kyung-mi (played by Bae Min-hee), was admitted to uncover clues hidden in a key card, only to encounter the organization's members again. Ultimately, Ah-hyun and Seok-soo (played by Oh Seung-jun) were captured by Jung Hyun, putting them in peril.

Se-hee embarked on a mysterious project linked to the First Lady (played by Han Soo-yeon). As curiosity mounts over Se-hee's schemes involving the presidential couple to design the 'perfect child,' a scene where the First Lady demands a surrogate for Se-hee's daughter (played by Kim Ji-an) left viewers shocked and chilled.

Meanwhile, the children installed a tracking device on an organization member's vehicle, leading them to Se-hee's secret research facility. Disguised as a couple, Ah-hyun and Seok-soo infiltrated the facility, witnessing the horrific reality of children being traded based on genetic superiority.

At the end of the episode, Ah-hyun was devastated by the horrifying truth of children being treated as commodities. Her intense gaze as she watched Se-hee's retreating figure left a lasting impression, raising anticipation for what choices she will make when faced with the cruelest truth.
