‘Saimdang’: Lee Young Ae’s Fate and Encounter with the Forgotten Saimdang
The first episode of SBS’ new drama ‘Saimdang’ (26/1) showcased the hardships that were suffered by Ji Yoon (Lee Young Ae).
In the beginning, Jo Yoon lives his busy life as a wife of an investment company’s CEO and a university professor. Suddenly, Ji Yoon’s life changed drastically, and a lot of hardships started to come at her.
First, her husband, Min Seok (Lee Hae Young), lived in debts. The house that they lived in all these time had to be submitted to the creditors.
When the worst situation came, Ji Yoon said, “Even if I had to bow, I would still work with you.” to Professor Min, who hated Ji Yoon. Ji Yoon’s intention was to come to Bologna, Italy, with her.
Unfortunately, at the same time, Professor Min’s hatred toward Ji Yoon got even bigger after she watched a video in Youtube. The Professor even casted her out by saying, “Go! Get out of my sight!” Not only that, Professor Min also spread horrible gossips about Ji Yoon to other professors.
The only way for Ji Yoon to relive her reputation was by looking for a proof that the painting that Ji Yoon found was the original work from An Gyeon. The art was from Lee Gyeom (Song Seung Hoon)’s era, 500 years ago. The painter was Shin Saimdang. Surprisingly, the painter has the same face with Ji Yoon.
What kind of change that awaits Ji Yoon after discovering that painting?
