The romance between Lee Dong Wook and Lee Sung Kyung is set to take another dramatic turn in JTBC’s Friday night series Good Man.

On August 15, the production team revealed that subtle changes are brewing between Park Seok Cheol (played by Lee Dong Wook) and Kang Mi Young (played by Lee Sung Kyung) ahead of episodes 9 and 10. Unlike their usual interactions, an unfamiliar awkwardness and misaligned gazes were noted, heightening curiosity about the future of their relationship.

Previously, the two shared heartfelt promises for the future. After a tense three-way meeting with Kang Tae Hoon (played by Park Hoon), they left behind their everyday burdens and set off on a trip together. Deep, honest conversations brought them closer, culminating in an emotional kiss under the night sky—a scene that stirred viewers’ anticipation.

However, newly released stills show Lee Dong Wook anxiously waiting in Kang Mi Young’s home. Kang Mi Young is seen alone in her room, tearful and unreachable by phone, her face etched with complex emotions. Meanwhile, Park Seok Cheol clutches his cell phone, visibly troubled.

The couple eventually sit together once more, but an uneasy silence dominates the scene. As Park Seok Cheol’s worried gaze is met with Kang Mi Young’s avoidance, viewers are left to wonder what critical conversation will unfold.

The producers commented, “An unexpected crisis has emerged for Park Seok Cheol and Kang Mi Young. Please stay tuned to see what choices they make as new variables enter their relationship.”

Episodes 9 and 10 of JTBC’s Good Man will air back-to-back on August 15 at 9:10 p.m.
