The tension in tvN’s weekend drama ‘Potato Research Institute’ continues to rise as Yoon Hee-jin (played by Jung Shin-hye) arrives at the guest house, adding a new twist to the romance between Kim Mi-kyung (Lee Sun-bin) and So Baek-ho (Kang Tae-oh). In Episode 4, Baek-ho’s cold attitude towards Mi-kyung after refusing to revoke her dismissal created a subtle yet significant strain between them. However, their lingering eye contact hinted at a deeper connection.
Episode 5 is set to bring even more excitement as Mi-kyung, in a military-style disguise, investigates Baek-ho’s home while preparing for Hee-jin’s arrival. During Hee-jin’s welcome party, she is seen sharing surprisingly close moments with Baek-ho, sparking jealousy and suspicion in Mi-kyung. Meanwhile, Hee-jin’s presence is expected to stir not only Mi-kyung and Baek-ho’s relationship but also affect Lee Ong-ju (Kim Ga-eun) and Kim Hwan-kyung (Shin Hyun-seung).
The drama’s production team teased, ‘Hee-jin’s appearance will significantly shake up the dynamics within the guest house. Viewers can look forward to unexpected events shaping the characters’ relationships.’
Fans are eagerly anticipating how these shifting dynamics will unfold in the upcoming episode, airing at 9:20 PM. With new conflicts and deepening romances, ‘Potato Research Institute’ continues to capture audiences with its unpredictable twists.
