Moving on isn’t clean for anyone in “Love on the Menu” — and the next episode proves it. As Kim Moo Jin and Han Gyu Rim each try dating someone new, an unexpected confrontation and a shocking family confession threaten to pull them right back toward each other.
Love On The Menu: The Story So Far
KBS 2TV’s “Love on the Menu” follows Kim Moo Jin (Ha Seok Jin) and Han Gyu Rim (Hani), former lovers reuniting eight years after a painful breakup, as they piece together their broken families while rebuilding trust between them. In the previous episode, Kim Moo Jin visited Jang Seo Hyun (Lee Joo Yeon) at the hospital to propose they start dating, while Han Gyu Rim asked out Jo Heung Sik (Bae Jung Nam).
What The New Stills Reveal
| Storyline | What’s Happening |
|---|---|
| Kim Moo Jin & Jang Seo Hyun | Growing visibly closer; she’s thrilled her long-held feelings are finally reciprocated |
| Jo Heung Sik & Kim Moo Jin | An unexpected, tense meeting between the two after Han Gyu Rim asks Jo Heung Sik out |
| Han Gyu Rim & Han Gyu Young | Sisters clash as Han Gyu Rim tries to correct her sister’s lies — until Gyu Young reveals a shocking truth |
Why This Episode Is A Turning Point
The show has spent its runtime building toward the question of whether Kim Moo Jin and Han Gyu Rim can truly move on from each other, and this episode complicates that in the most realistic way possible — not through dramatic reunions, but through the mess of trying to date other people while unresolved history keeps resurfacing. Jo Heung Sik seeking out Kim Moo Jin directly, rather than avoiding him, suggests the show is about to test every relationship at once rather than letting the new pairings develop quietly in the background.
The new episode airs August 22 at 8 p.m. KST on KBS 2TV.
