Lee Junyoung, Kang Youngho Identities Revealed

The shocking identity of Hwang Junhyeon, played by Lee Junyoung, was revealed in JTBC's Saturday-Sunday drama 'Rookie Chairman Kang'. The broadcast on the 4th unveiled the truth behind the conspiracy that had been shrouded in mystery, depicting a finale that shook the drama's progression.

It was revealed that the mastermind who injected the fatal drug into Chairman Kang Yongho (Son Hyunju), who had lost consciousness and was on the brink of life and death, was his daughter-in-law Na Eunse (Lee Seoan). Meanwhile, his son-in-law Min Seokdo (Kwon Hae-seong) secretly worked to save his father-in-law. His eldest son Kang Jaeseong (Jin Goo), who misunderstood and pursued Min Seokdo, confirmed Min Seokdo's true intentions.

The two staged a play to fake Chairman Kang's death to deceive Kang Jaekyung (Jeon Hyejin). Kang Jaeseong instructed Min Seokdo to swap Chairman Kang's body with that of an unclaimed corpse, and the operation was successful. Although they pretended to be enemies on the surface, the sight of the brothers joining forces to save their father's life brought a touching moment to viewers. In particular, Jin Goo's performance, as he sobbed with guilt towards his father after learning of his wife Na Eunse's crime, heightened the immersion to its peak.

Kang Jaekyung manipulated public opinion through a press conference disguised as grief over her father's death. Kang Jaekyung's threat to hand over Taeha Energy, using the crimes of Chairman Na (Jung Jaeseong) and his daughter Na Eunse as leverage, was chilling.

A turning point also arrived in the relationship between Kang Banggeul (Lee Joomyeong) and Hwang Junhyeon (Lee Junyoung). Banggeul realized Junhyeon's true feelings as he tried to save her and attempted to remove him from danger. However, Junhyeon declared, "I will do the dirty work," showing his resolve to protect Banggeul.
