The viewers have uncovered the hidden meaning behind Kim So Yeon's psychotic scene in 'The Penthouse: War in Life' 15th episode. The discovery is pretty unexpected and will surely give you goosebumps!
In this particular scene, Cheon Seo Jin, starred by Kim So Yeon, hurriedly entered the training room and crazily played the piano after witnessing her father died in front of her. The first question that most of the viewers wanted to ask was if that's why Cheon Seo Jin played the piano all of a sudden? It seems like the drama's writer wanted to bring about a deeper message through the scene.
The secret was laid behind the song that Kim So Yeon's character played. The song title was "Mazeppa" by Franz Liszt, and it's a song widely recognized to be one of the most difficult pieces to play by pianists. The song itself tells the complicated story of Ivan Mazepa, who was caught doing the act of adultery by seducing a noble Polish lady. When caught, he was punished by the lady's husband by tying him naked on a wild horse and setting them free.
Viewers strongly believe that this is not a simple coincidence as the drama also features an adultery scandal among its characters.
Kim So Yeon stars as Cheon Seo Jin in the drama. She is born into a rich and powerful family. She is arrogant and self-centered. She is married to a chief surgeon at a general hospital named Ha Yoon-Cheol (Yoon Jong Hoon), who is a very ambitious man.
