CBC News

In the second episode of KBS 2TV's weekend drama "Love Is On Its Way," the love triangle and family conflicts unfolded in earnest, recording a viewership rating of 13.8% (based on Nielsen Korea nationwide households).

■ Impromptu Marriage Declaration and Kim Moo-jin's Direct Approach Amid family pressure and conflict with her younger brother Han Kyu-young, Han Kyu-rim impulsively declares marriage and ends up lying to her family. While sitting on a bench, unable to resolve the situation, Kim Moo-jin appears and comforts her, creating a turning point in their relationship. While Han Kyu-rim pretends to be his girlfriend, Kim Moo-jin shows joy at her affectionate attitude. He also opens up about his feelings for Han Kyu-rim to his friend Park Jung-woo and his mother Hong Ok-sun. Park Jung-woo advises caution, referencing family backgrounds, while Kim Moo-jin expresses his determination not to give up in front of Hong Ok-sun, even though he was rejected by the person he likes. Hong Ok-sun puts on a cold expression after her son leaves, adding tension.

■ "Don't Shake Me Anymore" — The Two on Thin Ice In a restaurant scene, when Han Kyu-rim struggles with a difficult customer, Kim Moo-jin steps in directly to stop the customer. Han Kyu-rim then confesses that she is wavering because of Kim Moo-jin's protectiveness, but draws a line by saying, "Don't shake me anymore," making their relationship precariously intertwined. At the end of the broadcast, Han Kyu-rim confides to her younger brother that her marriage declaration was a lie, while Kim Moo-jin takes Han Kyu-rim's side, saying, "Your sister may be bluffing, but I'm serious." When Han Kyu-rim tries to create distance by saying, "Holding onto me means you're drawing a bad card from the ones you can hold," Kim Moo-jin warmly embraces her, saying, "I won't run away."

■ Ko Yoon-hee and Han Seok-jung Reunite After 6 Years, Love Triangle Intensifies The story of Ko Yoon-hee and Han Seok-jung, who reunite due to a traffic accident, also unfolds. When Ko Yoon-hee reveals her remarriage after the two meet for the first time in six years since their divorce, Han Seok-jung is flustered. Ko Yoon-hee's line, "The junk car left and a foreign car arrived," adds a satisfying punch, and when Han Seok-jung later kneels and clings to her, Ko Yoon-hee firmly rejects him. Meanwhile, as Park Soo-nam arranges a meeting between his son Jo Heung-sik and Han Kyu-rim, the love triangle further intensifies. When Park Soo-nam asks, "Please meet my son just three times," Han Kyu-rim is flustered, and Kim Moo-jin, witnessing this, reveals his jealousy and engages in a war of nerves with Jo Heung-sik.

■ Viewer Reactions Viewers showed various reactions, including "Eldest daughter Kyu-rim has it so tough," "Kim Moo-jin's direct approach is no joke," "The fast pacing is so satisfying," and "I hope this love comes true."

Episode 3 of "Love Is On Its Way" is scheduled to air on August 1 at 8 p.m.
