The tvN drama 100 Days of Deception has shared a suspense-filled teaser for its upcoming episode, showcasing the growing conflict between its two leads.
The series, set during the Japanese occupation of Korea, is a period spy romance starring Kim You Jung as Lee Ga Kyeong, a pickpocket who becomes an undercover spy for the independence movement and infiltrates the Japanese Government-General of Korea. There, she becomes entangled with interpreter Kim Tae Woong, played by GOT7's Park Jinyoung, who also goes by the name Sato Hideo and is the adopted son of the Inspector General of Korea, the second-highest-ranking official in the administration.
What happened in the first episode
In the premiere episode of 100 Days of Deception, the plan by Yoo So Ran (Kim Hyun Joo) and Yoo Philip (Lee Moo Saeng) to assassinate Sato Shinichi (Jin Sun Kyu) became complicated when Lee Ga Kyeong unexpectedly appeared, demanding payment for bullets she had found in Yoo So Ran's suitcase.
The situation became even more tangled with the arrival of a mysterious man disguised as a cake delivery person, who had his own assassination agenda. When this assassin took Lee Ga Kyeong hostage, she discreetly revealed her identity to Sato Hideo by speaking in English.
New images from the second episode
The newly released photos from the upcoming chapter show Lee Ga Kyeong frightened and anxious, surrounded by police officers. Meanwhile, the weapon in Sato Hideo's hand and a broken window suggest that a violent physical confrontation has just taken place.
After escaping from Yoo So Ran's house, Lee Ga Kyeong appears crouched on the floor, as if her legs had given out. Shortly after, Sato Hideo arrives, observing her with a look full of suspicion and anger.
It is understandable that Sato Hideo is suspicious: the same pickpocket who stole his wallet has reappeared as a live-in domestic worker at the house to which his father had been invited.
What the production team teases
Lee Ga Kyeong will face a crisis after being caught in an unexpected incident, the drama's production team teased. Her connections to an adverse fate alongside Sato Hideo, Yoo So Ran, and Yoo Philip will also become even more tangled and complicated.
The team added that unpredictable events will continue to unfold as Lee Ga Kyeong, now a target of suspicion, ends up being not just a pickpocket or a domestic worker, but a spy for Gugukdan.

The second episode of 100 Days of Deception will air on October 11 at 9:10 p.m. Korean time.
