The Wound That Never Healed

The upcoming episode centres on the resurfacing of the infamous “Good Morning Cream incident,” a scandal that once shook the beauty industry and continues to haunt Matthew Lee. He previously endured a painful downfall after the cream he developed became embroiled in controversy, and after years of wandering and self-reflection, he eventually decided to start developing cosmetics again in Deokpung Village — determined to restore his reputation by creating a cream that anyone could safely use.

A fresh start. A quieter life. A man genuinely trying to make amends. And yet — the world doesn’t forget so easily.

The Confrontation That Will Break Your Heart

In the newly released stills, victims of the Good Morning Cream incident personally track Matthew Lee down and angrily protest against him. Covered head to toe in cream believed to have been thrown by the victims, Matthew Lee lowers his head in despair — his shaken gaze revealing the deep guilt and emotional scars he still carries from the past.

It’s the kind of scene that hits differently when you’ve watched someone slowly rebuild their life — and then see it threatened all over again. This is redemption arc storytelling at its most raw and human.

The Village Feels It Too

The residents of Deokpung Village who have come to care for Matthew Lee like family are also left devastated. Song Hak Daek (Go Doo Shim), who has treated him like her own son, and mushroom farm team leader Park Kwang Mo (Jo Bok Rae) are seen frozen in shock — raising curiosity about how the incident will affect the once-peaceful village.

When a community you’ve built around yourself is shaken, the stakes become deeply personal. Will Matthew Lee crumble — or will the people who love him hold him together?
