JTBC's weekend drama "Surely Tomorrow" continued to pick up pace with its second episode broadcast on Dec. 7, packed with emotional confrontations, rekindled connections, and a dramatic request that may change the course of its main relationship.
According to iMBC, the episode recorded ratings of 3.6 percent in the metropolitan area and 3.3 percent nationwide through Nielsen Korea's paid households.

After the photoshoot, Seo Ji-woo apologised in a low-toned voice for having crossed paths with him again. To this, Lee Gyeong-do replied, "I've never been involved, I've never been entangled," reassuring her as reported by iMBC.
