## What’s Tearing Them Apart?

Park Min Joon (Kim Kyung Bo) had secretly been preparing to study abroad in the UK with Baek Jin Joo (Nam Sang Ji) — all without Kim Dan Hee’s knowledge. [IMDb](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt39301725/) That’s not just a secret — that’s a betrayal dressed in a suitcase.

Secrets. Jealousy. A three-way confrontation on campus. Classic *Pearl in Red* chaos.

## The Revenge Web Keeps Tightening

In episode 7, Kim Dan Hee learned through Baek Joon Gi that she could obtain crucial evidence related to the death of her twin sister Kim Myung Hee, giving her a lead for revenge — while Park Min Joon’s secret UK study plans with Baek Jin Joo came to light, adding further tension to the storyline.
