Curtain Call Episodes 9 and 10 Highlights
“Shoving your way in will accomplish nothing.”
Searching for Jae-heon on the internet, Se-yeon discovers that the Ri Moon-seong they are living with is fake. Aware of the truth, she then begins to become wary of Jae-heon.
Meanwhile, Moon-seong arrives in South Korea with Mr. Jang who advises him to lie low first. In his room, he remembers Jin-suk who had a liver deteriorating with no hopes for expensive treatment.
Chairwoman Ja wards off her nagging doctor after claiming she feels light more than ever even though her medical reports indicate that nothing changed.
“Everyone has an aspiration when they decide to leave their home.”
Mr. Jang collects information on the grandchildren of Chairwoman Ja, and he tells Moon-seong that Se-jun is the best person to be first approached. Se-jun ignores Mr. Jang’s leads, but checks again with Se-gyu if the DNA test they did was true.
Unable to restrain himself, Moon-seong causes a scene at Nakwon Hotel. Secretly recognizing each other, Jae-heon and Moon-seong talk outside as if they are comrades from the same hometown.
Conflicted with the truth she recently discovered, Se-yeon hears Jeong-suk’s advice on the benefits of making the other person happy with a lie and the greater pain it causes if caught.
Approached by Mr. Jang and Moon-seong, Se-jun runs a DNA test and results in a confirmed match, which confuses Se-jun.
“If you don’t get caught until the end, the truth is in the eye of the beholder.”
Jae-heon recognizes the change in the attitude of Se-yeon and Se-jun, so he along with Mr. Jeong and Yoon-hee begins to have their hunches on whether their act has already been discovered.
Se-jun meets with Moon-seong and Mr. Jang, and he explains why he can’t just reveal himself all of a sudden. Since their family is trying to keep their grandmother’s happiness, exposing the impostors is difficult.
Mr. Jeong meets Ri Moon-seong, and gets into a physical fight after prohibiting him to show himself to Chairwoman Ja while asking him to go back to where he came from.
Confirming that Se-jun already knows, Mr. Jeong orders Mr. Jang to play double agent. Not giving up for Chairwoman Ja, Jae-heon and Yoon-hee suggest trying everything first before choosing to reveal the harsh truth.
“Why would you do something you hate just because of what others think?”
Driving with Jae-heon, Se-yeon suggests to him to stop working in the hotel and spend more time with their grandmother.
Se-yeon becomes eager for Dong-jae’s shares while Se-jun becomes uninterested in it. Through Se-jun, Dong-jae learns about the truth behind Ri Moon-seong.
After trying to dodge the reporter Se-jun gave a tip about Ri Moon-seong, Se-yeon trades the news of her marriage with Dong-jae.
Stopping her, Jae-heon grabs Se-yeon, but Se-yeon tells him they’re nothing more than strangers, revealing her knowledge about his lies. Meanwhile, Moon-seong shows up in front of Chairwoman Ja.
Curtain Call Episodes 9 and 10 Musings
Though their lie is gradually being exposed, fortunately, Jae-heon is quick enough to sense Se-yeon’s and Se-jun’s attitude changes. He has really put to good use his acting knowledge.
While Se-yeon already knows about everything, Jae-heon is uncertain whether the older sister he calls still looks at him the same way when he started this act. Continuing on the act unaware that Se-yeon knows, viewers could feel second-hand embarrassment for Jae-heon.
Much has already changed within the short period since they discovered the truth. Se-yeon plans to merge with Dong-jae while Se-jun feels reassured with Moon-seong.
However, nothing is certain for Se-jun since there’s no assurance that Moon-seong would support his cause to the end. Knowing that Moon-seong went to South Korea for his grandmother, there’s truly nothing guaranteed for Se-jun’s oppositional vision for the hotel their grandmother treasures.
Based on the preview, it appears that Moon-seong has a lot to say about his past. The motive behind his eagerness to go meet Chairwoman Ja shall be anticipated in the next episodes.
