Jeon Young Ha The Frog Netflix

The Frog Series 1 Episode 4 Recap

I Think She Killed A Child – Episode 4 will begin in the not-so-distant past with a younger Yoon Bo-Min (Ha Yoon-Kyung) overseeing a visit between Koo Sang-Jun (Yoon Kye-Sang) and the now imprisoned Ji Hyang-Cheol (Hong Ki-Joon). There is no conversation for the moment but the appearance of Yeom Dong-Chan’s (Lee Ga-Sub) card suggests an interview will be the topic.

From there, the story goes back even further to the day Sang-Jun first shared the Lakeview Motel property with Seo Eun-Gyeong (Ryoo Hyoun-Kyoung) and Koo Gi-Ho (Choi Jung-Hoo). Sang-Jun will excitedly drone on and on about his aspirations for the property but the rambling will soon be overlapped by Eun-Gyeong composing her suicide note.

Bo-Min will attempt to introduce Sang-Jun and herself at the prison but Hyang-Cheol appears much more intrigued by Sang-Jun. Despite initially acting as if he doesn’t recognize Sang-Jun his words will later suggest that isn’t the case at all. In addition, he doesn’t see himself responsible for the destruction of Sang-Jun’s family and claims he’s simply trying to shift blame. Hyang-Cheol leaves the conversation there. Sang-Jun will briefly thank Bo-Min for arranging the visit and force her to accept his payment.

Jeon Yeong-Ha (Kim Yoon-Seok) begins to follow Jeon Ui-Seon (Roh Yoon-Seo) out of fear that Yoo Seong-A (Go Min-Si) will attack her. One particular incident will take him by her work where it will also be revealed that Park Yong-Chae (Lee Nam-Hee) is recovering from a minor surgery in a nearby hospital. Yeong-Ha also comes close to getting hit by a car while trying to chase down Seong-A.

Yeong-Ha has lunch with Yong-Chae at the hospital while Bo-Min has lunch with the Captain of the Violent Crimes division (Bak Kil-Sung). Whether she knew it or not, the Captain will help Bo-Min realize that she has a unique fascination with murder cases. He will also extend an invitation to join the Violent Crimes Division. Yeong-Ha nearly shares his suspicions about Song-A with Yong-Chae but instead claims she left something behind. Yong-Chae will later track down her booking information and share it with him, but she booked under her son’s name, Ha Si-Hyeon (Jo Yeo-Joon), and the number is now disconnected.

In an attempt to learn more about Seong-A, Yeong-Ha will begin to go through her personal belongings while she’s busy. This not only proves useless but she actually knows he’s doing so and laughs to herself about it behind his back. He steals her laptop at one point but fails to crack the password. The local Computer Technician (Shin H-Gook) doesn’t have any better luck. Seong-A will respond to this by making subtle changes around the property, starting with flowers, then paintings, and eventually moving onto patio furniture. This furniture appears to push him over the limit, resulting in his nearly drowning her one afternoon in the pool. He drains the pool after that.

Despite what happened the last time they had dinner together, Yeong-Ha will share another meal with Seong-A. It is during this meal that he questions her for the first time about Ha Si-Hyeon. He tells her that he has security footage of them checking in together and her checking out alone. In addition, he mentions the two missing towels, the bleach smell in the rental’s bathroom, and the bloodstain he discovered in the shower. She not only appears completely unfazed but points out how his failing to acknowledge it until a year later looks. He doesn’t appear to know how to respond but her offer to buy the proper causes him to simply walk away.

Ui-Seon and Song Ji-Su’s (Nam Ji-Woo) dinner will not only go much better but it will reveal that she is pregnant. Ji-Su also asks about Yeong-Ha and if she’d still be interested in moving closer to him. This apparently doesn’t appeal to her anymore.

The following day, it will be revealed that Yeong-Ha recorded his and Seong-A’s conversation about the missing boy. He will consider taking it along with the security footage to the police but by the time he gets to the police station she will ram him with her and knock him unconscious. While the cops are checking on him, the footage quickly flashes over to a scene with a slightly older teenage Koo Gi-Ho. It’s unclear at the moment, but it appears that either the man or Gi-Ho is visiting the other. This is where the episode ends.

 

The Frog Review

Like the others, this episode was certainly intriguing, but It was nowhere near as good as the previous one. I did enjoy the flashbacks, once again, but they certainly didn’t hold the significance they did before. I was hoping there was more to Bo-Min’s fascination with the motel incident other than an interest in murder. I supposed that could still be possible but I doubt it. I’d give the episode a 5.6 out of 10.
