However, Kang Ki Tak noticed something odd about Matthew Lee. He was greedy about money, which the real Lee Hwi Soo is not.

Moreover, Lee Hwi Soo had a phobia of water, while Matthew Lee was spotted surfing like a pro, as revealed by Gwum Ra Hee.

Due to this, Ki Tak took the opportunity to stop Matthew Lee, but he failed.

Instead, he was imprisoned inside his hidden dungeon, where he admitted that he was the real K.

K learned about Kang Ki Tak and Lee Hwi Soo's plan at the prison when he heard about it. As a result, he made a grand plan and pretended to be Lee Hwi Soo.

In hopes of exposing Matthew Lee's or K's plan, he tried to get out of the dungeon. Here, he saw the real Lee Hwi Soo, locked up inside a cell.

Because of the dungeon's advanced technology, he couldn't find Hwi Soo's exact location. However, a strange thing happened, and he got out of the dungeon.

In addition, the real Lee Hwi Soo was spotted saving the unconscious Kang Ki Tak by the seaside.

Other than Matthew Lee's real identity, director Michelle revealed who she is to Han Mo Ne.

The celebrity was shocked to find out that Michelle is Song Ji A's older sister and is about to expose the truth about Han Mo Ne and her evil actions.
