The conflict between Park Hae-soo and Lee Hee-jun in 'Scarecrow' reaches its peak.
The production team of the ENA Monday-Tuesday drama 'Scarecrow' (script by Lee Ji-hyun, directed by Park Jun-woo) released new stills on the 12th, just eight episodes away from airing, showing Kang Tae-ju (played by Park Hae-soo) and Cha Si-young (played by Lee Hee-jun) once again taking opposing stances amid the appearance of a new suspect, Im Seok-man (played by Baek Seung-hwan).
In the previous broadcast, the death of Lee Gi-beom (played by Song Geon-hee), who was wrongly accused, and the revelation of the identity of 'Lee Yong-woo' sent shockwaves and plot twists that plunged viewers into panic. Im Seok-man was arrested as a new suspect, and a decision was made to release Lee Gi-beom from detention. However, he died before he could even return home. The cause of death was organ damage and sepsis resulting from assault and torture. Most notably, attention focused on the revelation that Lee Gi-beom had already known the true identity of his older brother, Lee Gi-hwan (played by Jung Moon-sung).
Among the released photos, one captures a tense, explosive moment between Kang Tae-ju and Cha Si-young, creating a palpable sense of suspense. As Kang Tae-ju glares while grabbing Cha Si-young by the collar, Cha Si-young does not look away but stares back. Since a previous trailer revealed Kang Tae-ju blaming Cha Si-young, saying, "How can you still call yourself a human? How could you accuse me of such a crime?", viewers are left wondering about the future of their relationship, which is entangled with cooperation and betrayal.
Another photo released alongside it draws attention to detectives Jang Myeong-do (played by Jeon Jae-hong) and Do Hyung-gu (played by Kim Eun-woo) at the scene of the seventh crime. In a seemingly impossible situation where Im Seok-man, in poor physical condition, attempts to climb over the victim's house wall, the two detectives' ruthless actions of forcing their way forward naturally provoke anger. It remains to be seen whether 'the second victim,' Im Seok-man, will meet the same fate as Lee Gi-beom, and anticipation builds for the unfolding developments in the latter half of the series.
The production team of 'Scarecrow' stated, "In the eighth episode, after Lee Gi-beom's death, the conflict between Kang Tae-ju and Cha Si-young will deepen uncontrollably," and added, "The investigation surrounding the new suspect, Im Seok-man, will also take an unexpected turn."
Meanwhile, the eighth episode of 'Scarecrow' will air on ENA at 10 p.m. on the 12th and will also be available for viewing on KT Giini TV and Tving.
