tvN’s “Twenty-Five, Twenty-One” has released new stills ahead of the upcoming episode 9.

Spoilers

In the previous episode, Na Hee Do, Baek Yi Jin, and Go Yoo Rim (WJSN’s Bona) have an awkward “yellow rose” encounter. Na Hee Do set out to meet “Injeolmi,” her online pen pal who has been her source of strength for the past three years. Baek Yi Jin followed Go Yoo Rim out of concern after she said that she was going to meet someone that she had met online. When Go Yoo Rim realized that “Rider37” was Na Hee Do, she ran away in confusion, and Na Hee Do accidentally mistook Baek Yi Jin for Injeolmi instead. Confidently, she told him, “I have to make you mine.”

In a teaser for the upcoming episode, Na Hee Do and Baek Yi Jin are alone together. She’s been avoiding him, so he asks her, “What do you think our relationship is exactly?” Na Hee Do blushed and says, “I’m jealous of you. No, I like you. But I also have an inferiority complex about you. Nothing is clear when I think about you… that’s why I really hate you right now.” As she confesses her confusing feelings, he responds with a smile.

Another set of teasers shows a surprising interaction between Na Hee Do, Go Yoo Rim, and Go Yoo Rim’s mother (Heo Ji Na). Along with the Taeyang High fencing team, Na Hee Do goes to the restaurant that Go Yoo Rim’s mother operates. When Go Yoo Rim’s mother sees Na Hee Do looking down and awkwardly standing out, she suddenly approaches her with a hug. Go Yoo Rim also looks taken aback by her mother’s surprising behavior.

This episode of “Twenty-Five, Twenty-One” will air on March 12 at 9:10 p.m. KST.
