Kang No-ra (Choi Ji-soo) caused a big stir by revealing that she plans to transfer her stake in the stock to the Yeouido Pirates and that she has overseas slush funds for Korean citizenship rights created in front of her. Chairman Kang Pil-beom (Lee Deok-hwa) instructed Chief of Staff Song Joo-ran (Park Mi-hyun) to stay in Korea alone to deal with the situation, and Director Song was disappointed when he noticed that Chairman Kang was trying to run away alone. In response, Director Song gave up his long-held loyalty and planned to run away with cash, but was frustrated to learn that he was caught by his right-hand man, Bong Dal-soo (played by Kim Ro-ha) and betrayed him by secretly communicating with Chairman Kang.

After Director Song disappeared, the first trial of Kang's embezzlement related to slush funds was held, and Hong Geum-bo drove it based on physical evidence, including slush funds, but the situation went hard. Even when a witness was needed to testify conclusively, Hong Geum-bo hid the identity of the whistleblower "Yeppi" until the end, recalling his promise with Bang Jin-mok (played by Kim Do-hyun). At this time, a sudden application for witnesses surprised everyone, and Bang, who was sitting in the audience secretly, completed the last puzzle of the Yeouido Pirates with testimony that gave strength to Hong Geum-bo by revealing his appearance. Manager Bang's courageous behavior, which he decided not to regret anymore, sent shivers and emotions to the small screen.

Several evidences were found at the car center operated by Bong Dal-su, and among them, the items of Yoon, a fellow accountant of Hong Geum-bo and younger brother of Director Yoon Jae-beom (Kim Won-hae), who killed himself after the 1988 accounting fraud of the Korean citizens' right, were found to have been the work of Bong Dal-su 10 years ago. Director Song, who was trapped in the basement of Chairman Kang's mansion, was on the verge of losing his life, but Hong Geum-bo, Ko Bok-hee (Ha Yoon-kyung), and Kang No-ra stormed in and rescued him after a rough hand-to-hand battle. Bong Dal-soo was eventually arrested, and Hong Geum-bo visited Director Song and left a deep message, saying, "I hope you live with a sorry heart for the female employees who wanted to admire and resemble you."

Even Chairman Kang, who planned to flee alone, was deceived by Choi In-ja (played by Byun Jung-soo) and headed to the police station on his own, and the appearance of his daughter, Kang No-ra, hugging Choi In-ja, who made the same courageous choice, was touching. Cha Joong-il (Im Cheol-soo), who took over the new representative position of the vacant Korea Securities Co., has changed his attitude of treating low-ranking female employees by making discriminatory remarks in the past. Fellows of the Yeouido Pirates, such as Albot Oh (Cho Han-gyeol), who recovered his family love with his father, whose obsession with inheritance competition disappeared, and Lee Yong-ki (Jang Do-ha), who jumped into IT innovation in Pangyo, an unknown land, also gradually began to find their place after the dismissal. Shin Jung-woo (Ko Kyung-pyo), who has lived with a sense of debt since the incident 10 years ago, expressed his sincere greetings to Hong Geum-bo, saying, "Thank you for giving me a chance again," and Hong Geum-bo asked for a handshake without saying anything, clearing the feelings and lingering feelings that have been entangled between the two for a long time.

A year later, the status of the roommates in Room 301 gathered at the kindergarten graduation ceremony of Kim Mi-sook (Kang Chae-young)'s daughter Kim Bom (Kim Se-ah) was revealed. The four women, Ko Bok-hee, who runs a secret entertainment center in partnership with Hong Geum-bo's younger brother Hong Jang-mi (Shin Yu-na), Kang No-ra, who became a patisserie after studying abroad, and Kim Mi-sook, who attended a correspondence university and was promoted to the head of the department, showed new growth and resonated. They visited the closed dormitory 301 of unmarried female workers in Seoul again, reminding them of their precious memories and leaving pictures, showing off their solid friendship.

The long-awaited ending scene was cathartic, suggesting another undercover operation by Hong Geum-bo. After Yoon Jae-beom, director of the Securities Supervisory Service, who was Hong Geum-bo's boss, offered him a conditional reinstatement, Hong Geum-bo, who turned into an insurance company accountant with colorful styling to investigate the insurance fraud case, left a sense of pleasure and lingering feeling on the small screen at the same time.

"Undercover Miss Hong" satisfied the five senses of the small screen with a unique genre of office comedy set in Yeouido at the end of the century in 1997, a fresh undercover material called the transformation of a 20-year-old employee by a 35-year-old securities supervisor, and a solid production. "Undercover Miss Hong" has become the most beloved drama of 2026, with the main actor Park Shin-hye, who played a role in Hong Geum-bo itself, as well as the strong performance of Joo-yeon actors who fully support the structured story.

Park Shin-hye once again showed off her image as a viewer rating queen on the small screen.
