Korean Drama Review by Russell, USA (No
End Spoilers)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The star of this addictive
thriller drama Ms. Incognito (2025) is the
amazing actress Jeon Yeo Bin (Our
Movie, A
Time Called You) and she was the
reason I plunged in and gave this drama a try in
the first place. She brings in another terrific
performance in this drama about a lady torn
between the good and evil within herself. I
literally couldn't take my eyes off my television
screen when she was in a scene! Directed by Park
Yoon Young (his first project) and written by Gyu
Ri Hyun (great historical film The Night Owl)
it couldn't help but succeed on streaming
Viki.com.
The Story:
Fit and pretty Kim Young Ran (Jeon YeoBin)
works as a bodyguard for the owner of the Gasung
Group run by elder chairman Ga Sung Ho (senior actor
Moon Sung Geun). She comes from a poor family and
her life has always been miserable because of lack
of money. She receives the chance of a lifetime, one
that can change her life completely for the better,
or so she thinks. She enters into a contract
marriage with Ga Sung Ho, who doesn't have much time
to live. She must change her own identity and
survive for three months under a false identity,
with the fake name Bu Se Mi, thereby avoiding those
in his life who are after his huge inheritance when
he passes.
Bu Se
Mi creates an identity who is completely different
from herself. Instead of being at odds with those
around her she develops and showcases a warm heart
for the first time in her life. As Bu Se Mi she
begins to work as a kindergarten teacher at a
village school nearby. People in this village all
like her and praise her as "Good woman Bu Se Mi",
but a parent at the school, Jeon Dong Min (Jin
Young), is the only person who is wary of this
so-called perfect teacher.
Jeon
Dong Min is a single Dad who raises his cute son
Jeon Ju Won (Yang Woo Hyeok) alone while farming
strawberries as a living. Over time Bu Se Mi and
Jeon Dong Min become closer and eventually fall in
love. However what will happen when and if he
discovers the real truth of Young Ran alias Bu Se
Mi's identity and all that distasteful information
about her contract marriage to Gasung's chairman?
Can he still love a woman who has lied to him about
the most important details of her life? Check the
drama out and watch the interesting journey these
two people take to either brave a new start
together, or go their separate ways. There's
melodrama in this story but also moments of humor
too. I enjoyed my own journey watching theirs
together.
