"Jang Ok Jung Lives for Love" Hong Soo Hyun doesn't seem like an innocent character either if you look closely.
May 28, the 16th episode of the SBS drama "Jang Ok Jung Lives for Love" featured Queen In Hyun (Hong Soo Hyun) scheming against Jang Ok Jung (Kim Tae Hee) herself.
After the death of Lady Kim (Kim Sun Kyung), Queen In Hyun dreams about Jang Ok Jung. Lady Kim appears in the dream and tells Queen In Hyun that Jang Ok Jung was a beast in her past life that was killed by Lee Soon (Yoo Ah In), therefore she will not be capable of becoming pregnant. Lady Kim then tells Queen In Hyun to raise up a bloody storm to get rid of her.
Queen In Hyun goes straight to Lee Soon and tells him about her dream. Lee Soon responds, "That is something I have heard from mother repeatedly even before her death. How can a queen of a nation speak those words? Dreams are usually the result of your thoughts. It is your jealously."
Queen In Hyun realizes that she had been foolish to think the dream to be significant when even Min Yoo Joong (Lee Hyo Jung) tells her that it is the result of her jealousy.
However, when the rumors of Jang Ok Jung spread through the palace, Queen In Hyun straightly forwardly tells Jang Ok Jung, "Exit the palace on your own for the sake of the king. His highness is in a difficult position because of all your horrendous rumors. Don't lead the King into a painful slump just for your greed."
The calm and mature image of Queen In Hyun had all been just a concept so that she could win over people. In the story, Queen In Hyun is just a woman who is dying to kick Jang Ok Jung out of the palace.
