After the tragic stabbing from the night before, detective Gook-doo finds his teammates watching an old TV show, “Chief Inspector.” Gook-doo’s superior explains that this is their team’s method of preparing for a new case, adding that they’ve been assigned to the murder from last night.
We catch up to where we left off in Min-hyuk’s office when his stalker calls, and Bong-soon listens in alarm as the creepy voice threatens her boss. Min-hyuk admits that this has been going on for two months, and asks her to do her job in protecting him.
Min-hyuk breaks the serious tone by declaring that he can’t possibly do work after this, then boards his hoverboard and zooms (rolls?) out of the office. Bong-soon hurries to catch up, muttering that the rumors about his work ethic are true.
In the building’s garage, Min-hyuk hands Bong-soon the car keys to start up the car. When Bong-soon wonders why, Min-hyuk answers, “You never know, there could be a bomb.” Then he casually strolls off to hide behind the nearest pillar. PFFT.
Giving her boss a little extra stink-eye, Bong-soon starts up the car (which does not explode), and climbs back out for Min-hyuk to drive. It’s his turn to glare when Bong-soon moves to sit in the backseat and he snaps that he isn’t a taxi. I swear, these two make glaring an Olympic sport.
Bong-soon’s mom and her friends gather at the family’s walnut shop again to discuss the upcoming neighborhood redevelopment plan. It seems like after the murder from last night, Mom is starting to think a redevelopment might be a good idea to make the neighborhood safer. The friends are interrupted when Gook-doo’s mom, Mi-hwa, stops by the bakery again.
This time Mom calls Mi-hwa over, asking her to sign their petition and subtly pushing that such an important writer would help their cause get noticed. Mi-hwa is undaunted and politely refuses. The three women stare after her when she leaves, and Mom sputters that she just can’t get along with that woman. Their rant is cut short by the arrival of NA KYUNG-SHIM (Park Bo-mi), who seems to be a family friend from Busan.
Min-hyuk heads to a mall with Bong-soon accompanying/guarding him. He uses the excuse of a potential stalker watching nearby to hold her hand, claiming that it shouldn’t be obvious that she’s his bodyguard. Sadly, it doesn’t last long since Bong-soon tugs her hand away.
Min-hyuk indulges in some serious retail therapy, and piles his selections higher and higher atop the tiny — but mighty — Bong-soon. She in turn stares to see that in just one afternoon, he spent her yearly salary. After loading Bong-soon up with all his purchases, Min-hyuk has an altruistic moment and promises to get her something too. Bong-soon is shyly happy, until she realizes that her “something” is just an ice cream cone. Oh, if looks could kill.
Post-shopping, the two head to a park where Min-hyuk impresses Bong-soon with his drone piloting skills. He grins adorably whenever she cheers at a trick. Cutie.
The drone isn’t just for show however, as Min-hyuk spies his stalker off in the distance. When the man hops on a motorcycle, the gamer CEO smartly uses the drone to follow him and capture a shot of the man’s license plate. Bong-soon adorably cheers him on.
Min-hyuk drives Bong-soon home, but when they pass by the busy crime scene from last night’s murder, the mood turns somber. Seeming to want to lift her spirits, he demands they get food together, so Bong-soon directs him to her family’s walnut shop.

Strong Woman Do Bong-soon: Episode 2February 27, 2017 byCandidClown Tagged: Episode 2, featured, Ji-soo, Park Bo-young, Park Hyung-shik, Strong Woman Do Bong-soon Posted In Drama Recaps
Strong Woman Do Bong-soon takes a bit of a darker turn than most of us might have imagined for a second episode. I’ll be the first to admit that I was expecting a purely light and fluffy romcom, so this criminal undertone is a bit surprising. But then, every Superman needs a Lex Luthor, and Bong-soon is certainly strong enough to warrant her own uber villain… just as long as she has her plucky CEO sidekick there to bicker with her.
