Is Jang Hye Jin the reason why Roh Jeong Eui wound up leaving her village on “ The Witch ”? Based on “Moving” author Kang Full’s webtoon of the same name, “The Witch” is a mystery romance about a woman who distances herself from the world due to tragedy and a man who refuses to give up on her. On the previous episode of “The Witch,” Park Mi Jeong (Roh Jeong Eui) was traumatized by the abrupt deaths of multiple students who had crushes on her. Plagued by rumors that she was a “witch,” Mi Jeong decided to quit school and stay cooped up inside at home.
Even then, her mysterious “curse” followed her, and her father tragically died after saving her from a venomous snake bite. In a preview that aired at the end of the episode, it was revealed that it was not Mi Jeong’s idea to leave the village; instead, it turned out that she had been pressured to leave by the other villagers. Most shocking of all, Lee Dong Jin ( GOT7 ’s Jinyoung )’s mother Mi Sook (Jang Hye Jin) was seen standing at the forefront of the group asking Mi Jeong to leave.
Later, while lying in a hospital bed, Mi Sook confessed to her son, “I was the one who chased that girl away.” As Mi Sook was always kind, friendly, and generous to not only her son but also her neighbors, her unexpected and seemingly uncharacteristic involvement in Mi Jeong’s departure raised the question of whether something else had happened in the village after her father’s death.
