Shocking Twist in 'Honor: Her Court' Reveals True Identity of 'Green Hood' Attacker

The mystery of the 'Green Hood' attacker who targeted Lee Na-young and Lee Chung-ah in 'Honor: Her Court' has been unveiled. In a shocking twist, it was revealed that Jeon So-young, a victim of sexual exploitation and someone the L&J lawyers were protecting, was actually the one threatening them.

In the sixth episode of the ENA drama 'Honor: Her Court' aired on the 17th, the trio of lawyers focused on securing evidence that prosecutor Park Je-yeol (played by Seo Hyun-woo) was involved with the secret prostitution app 'Connect In'. The episode's viewership ratings rose to 3.6% in the metropolitan area and 3.1% nationwide, marking a new high for the series according to Nielsen Korea (based on paid households).

Yoon Ra-young (played by Lee Na-young) countered by targeting Park Je-yeol's wife, Hong Yeon-hee (played by Baek Eun-hye), discovering she was also a victim of domestic violence. Yoon Ra-young offered her a USB to clone Park Je-yeol's phone data, suggesting it was her key to escape hell, and proposed a deal.

Meanwhile, Kang Shin-jae (played by Jung Eun-chae), who was ousted from her representative position, decided to join forces with Baek Tae-joo (played by Yeon Woo-jin), the CEO of IT company The Prime, to protect L&J. Her intention was to use the engagement pressure from her mother, Seong Tae-im (played by Kim Mi-sook), the head of Haeil, as a lifeline.

Kang Shin-jae exposed the prostitution scandal involving high-ranking officials and Kwon Joong-hyun (played by Lee Hae-young), but Seong Tae-im responded with a firm stance to side with the money and power of Haeil's main clients. Realizing her mother's scales would never tip towards justice, Kang Shin-jae revealed her goal to Baek Tae-joo to make L&J an independent non-profit foundation. He promised to dismantle Haeil, calling it a legacy code that must disappear.

Hwang Hyun-jin secured the missing laptop of murdered journalist Lee Joon-hyuk (played by Lee Choong-joo). He had left Hwang Hyun-jin's phone number as an emergency contact while recovering the destroyed investigation data from a mysterious ransomware attack. The restored files contained a recording of a minor sexual assault victim, Jo Yoo-jung (played by Park Se-hyun), detailing how she was connected to 'Connect In'. After being questioned by Park Je-yeol, he installed the app on her phone, promising her money and immunity, and later a police officer visited her.

The shocking identity of the corrupt police officer colluding with Park Je-yeol to protect 'Connect In' was revealed to be Kim Seung-jin (played by Jung Hee-tae), the trusted partner of Gu Seon-gyu (played by Choi Young-jun). Tormented by the fact that his wife Hwang Hyun-jin was not pregnant with his child, a heavily intoxicated Gu Seon-gyu was taken home by Kim Seung-jin, who then saw Lee Joon-hyuk's laptop among Hwang Hyun-jin's materials. Following Park Je-yeol's orders, he instructed drug dealer Lee Sun-hwa (played by Baek Ji-hye) to retrieve the laptop.

While the L&J trio was away, Lee Sun-hwa successfully stole the laptop from their office and demanded a large sum from Kim Seung-jin. However, she was suddenly subdued with a syringe by the 'Green Hood' attacker in an alley. The attacker, who had previously targeted Yoon Ra-young and Hwang Hyun-jin, entered Yoon Ra-young's home and revealed their face. It was none other than Han Min-seo (played by Jeon So-young), a victim of sexual exploitation from 'Connect In'.

Having approached L&J claiming she would testify and requesting to stay with one of the lawyers, Han Min-seo's true intentions remain unclear, adding another unpredictable twist to the 'Connect In' saga.
