'Let's Divorce' revealed Lee Min-jeong's pain over losing her pregnancy.

On the 15th, the KBS Drama channel and GTV channel drama 'Let's Divorce' (script by Hwang Ji-eon, directed by Ju Seong-woo) released key points focusing on the emotional arc of the tumultuous couple Baek Mi-young (played by Lee Min-jeong) and Ji Won-ho (played by Kim Ji-seok).

In episode 7, Ji Won-ho heard an unexpected story from Calvin (played by Lee Hyun-jin), who had kidnapped him. Calvin revealed that although he discovered during his marriage that the child was not biologically his, he expressed his determination to "find the child I gave birth to with my heart."

Hearing this, Ji Won-ho recalled Baek Mi-young, who was struggling after losing her child, and told her, "I can somewhat understand why you liked Calvin." Recalling Calvin's request, "Mi-young has no other intention; if you are meeting Hee-joo out of resentment toward me, please stop," Ji Won-ho had previously revoked the written statement he had obtained from Baek Mi-young asking for permission to meet Ahn Hee-joo.

Baek Mi-young was also moved by Ji Won-ho's change in attitude. Mentioning the subtle relationship between Ji Won-ho and Ahn Hee-joo (played by Lee Jin-i), she told Jeon Chi-hyun (played by Oh Yeon-a), who was excited about winning the trial, "I don't think it was done with the intention of actually falling in love." Even with Jeon Chi-hyun's advice that "no one plans to cheat," Baek Mi-young could not hide her complicated feelings. The couple's gradual understanding of each other sparked curiosity about the direction of their relationship.

At the end of episode 7, Baek Mi-young dropped a bombshell confession that she lost her child after taking pills given by Ji Won-ho, leaving him in shock. While strongly denying this, Ji Won-ho recalled Song Ah-ri (played by Wang Bit-na), who had suggested giving nutritional supplements sent as Chuseok gifts to the company at the time to Baek Mi-young.

Thinking that Song Ah-ri, whom Baek Mi-young relied on, might be the culprit, Ji Won-ho asked, "If it wasn't me but someone else who gave you the pills, could you forgive them?" But he was left speechless by her reply: "I cannot forgive the person who wrongly gave me the pills. I endured for three years only because of Won-ho." As Baek Mi-young's deep love was revealed—having endured the truth alone to protect him from pain—it added to the sense of sorrow.

In episode 8, after hearing Baek Mi-young say she still considered him a murderer, Ji Won-ho left home and headed to a motel. The two, now alone again, spent the night reflecting on the sharp words and actions they had directed at each other, filled with guilt, regret, and tender feelings. Later, through a plan by Kang Kyung-tae (played by Jeong Ui-je) and Song Ah-ri arranged to help restore their relationship, Baek Mi-young and Ji Won-ho reunited at a bowling alley. After winning a couple's bowling match, the two embraced each other in joy. Though entangled in intense love-hate feelings, the couple's appearance of showing the most comfortable and happy smiles when together raised questions about what ending they might face.

Meanwhile, at the end of episode 8, it was revealed that Kang Kyung-tae was the one who gave Baek Mi-young the pills that induced her miscarriage. With the additional revelation that Kang Kyung-tae was also present at the scene of Ahn Hee-joo's fall accident, curiosity about the full details of the incident exploded.
