"More Beautiful than Heaven" Lee Jung-eun's father visits the Heaven House.
On the 17th, ahead of the 9th episode broadcast of JTBC's weekend drama "More Beautiful than Heaven" (written by Lee Nam-kyu and Kim Soo-jin, directed by Kim Seok-yoon), stills capturing the reunion of Lee Young-ae (played by Lee Jung-eun) and her father in heaven were released, drawing attention.
In the last broadcast, Lee Hae-sook accompanied her mother-in-law Park Jong-gwi (played by Joo Min-kyung), who was on the path of reincarnation. For Lee Hae-sook, who had a short and difficult life as a daughter-in-law for just over five years, her mother-in-law remained a challenging and uncomfortable presence. After reuniting with her mother-in-law in heaven, Lee Hae-sook decided to change after a quarrel with her husband. However, her mother-in-law was preparing for reincarnation, and Lee Hae-sook confirmed their connections through various lives, bidding farewell in forgiveness and reconciliation.
As various connections from past and present lives are revealed, Lee Young-ae's father appears in heaven, foreshadowing the strong bond between the father and daughter. The released photos show Lee Young-ae's father being rejected by Lee Hae-sook, her husband Ko Nak-jun, and their daughter Lee Young-ae. He was an irresponsible father who abused and neglected his young daughter. The gaze of Lee Young-ae towards him, whom she never wanted to meet or remember again, reveals the scars of her childhood.
Above all, it raises questions about why Lee Young-ae's father came to heaven instead of hell. In particular, the following photos show Lee Young-ae and her father facing the center director (played by Cheon Ho-jin), amplifying curiosity. Both Lee Young-ae and her father are engulfed in sadness for different reasons, and the serious expression of the center director watching them is unusual. Who sent Lee Young-ae's father to heaven and why did they meet? What story does the center director have to tell them? Attention is drawn to these questions.
In the 9th episode airing on the 17th, Ko Nak-jun and Somi face an unexpected crisis after recognizing the identity of "Shirt Guy" Kang Jeong-gu (played by Jeong Ji-gak), and Lee Young-ae's anger and resentment towards her father explode. Secrets of various connections, from "Shirt Guy" Kang Jeong-gu to Lee Young-ae's father, will be unveiled. The production team of "More Beautiful than Heaven" stated, "Please watch how Lee Young-ae's father, who accumulated evil deeds in this life, came to heaven and how he will be punished for his sins in the afterlife," adding, "We will once again unravel the story of the laws of connection."
JTBC's weekend drama "More Beautiful than Heaven" episode 9 will air on the 17th at 10:40 PM.
