Lee Jun-young Flips Script, Jeon Hye-jin Reverses

The 5th episode of JTBC's Saturday-Sunday drama 'Chief Detective 1958' has foreshadowed a shift in the balance of power between rookie employee Hwang Jun-hyeon (Lee Jun-young), who is possessed by the soul of Choi Seong Group Chairman Kang Yong-ho (Son Hyun-ju), and his eldest daughter and Choi Seong Chemical CEO Kang Jae-kyung (Jeon Hye-jin).

After confronting his daughter Kang Jae-kyung and son Kang Jae-seong (Jin Goo) in Hwang Jun-hyeon's body, Kang Yong-ho felt deeply betrayed by his two children, who framed him for a hit-and-run and tried to drive him to his death. As a result, Kang Yong-ho decided not to pass down Choi Seong Group to the siblings. He then approached them in the guise of Hwang Jun-hyeon, inciting their competition through meticulous psychological warfare and achieving results.

However, Kang Yong-ho, who was enjoying racing in Hwang Jun-hyeon's body, found himself in a desperate crisis when Kang Jae-kyung followed him.

Photos released prior to the 5th episode broadcast show Kang Jae-kyung asking Hwang Jun-hyeon for help. Hwang Jun-hyeon, who had previously aroused Kang Jae-kyung's suspicion, maintains a relaxed demeanor, while Kang Jae-kyung grabs his arm and looks at him with earnest eyes. Kang Jae-kyung, who had been pressuring him with a fierce intensity, now displays a softer expression, raising questions about the reason.

Thus, Kang Yong-ho is expected to escape Kang Jae-kyung's persistent pressure once again with an extraordinary strategic play, and instead find himself in a position where she requests his help. Attention is focused on how rookie employee Hwang Jun-hyeon gained the upper hand in his relationship with Choi Seong Chemical CEO Kang Jae-kyung, and the story behind why Kang Jae-kyung had no choice but to set aside her pride and ask for help.
