Connection: Episode 8 Recap

 

Episode 8 of "Connection" begins with a brief flashback to Jae-kyung's school days, then quickly transitions to the story of the Inner Circle friends who gathered on the day Jun-seo died. 

Jae-kyung asks Sang-ui, a researcher at Geumhyeong Pharmaceutical and one of the Inner Circle members, what happened that day. Sang-ui explains that he, Jong-soo, Tae-jin, and Chi-hyun went to the construction site after being contacted by Jun-seo. They took a temporary elevator to the upper floors, and Jun-seo fell to his death from the 9th floor. 

Sang-ui insists that neither he nor his friends killed Jun-seo, but Jae-kyung is convinced that one of them is the culprit based on Sang-ui’s testimony. Sang-ui mentions that Jun-seo was wearing shoes when he fell, but it seems the other friends didn’t notice this detail. 

Jong-soo meets with the mayor of Anhyeon to propose a business proposal crucial for him to become the chairman of Geumhyeong Group. However, the mayor declines, expressing distrust in Jong-soo’s track record and behavior and the disappointing performance of Geumhyeong Pharmaceutical, and leaves abruptly. 

After parting ways with Sang-ui, Jae-kyung pressures Chi-hyun during questioning. Chi-hyun inadvertently reveals that Jun-seo's shoes were not on the 9th floor. Satisfied with Chi-hyun's slip-up, Jae-kyung promises to return with evidence and leaves. 

Tae-jin can't access his money because Choi Ji-yeon won’t reveal the password to the cryptocurrency wallet. Having already entered the wrong password eight times, he only has two attempts left. 

Through a conversation with Hyun-woo, Jae-kyung learns how Hyun-woo met and befriended Jun-seo while he was still alive. Jae-kyung also discovers that Hyun-woo delivered drugs incorrectly due to a motorcycle accident on a rainy road.

The episode ends with Jae-kyung reviewing CCTV footage from the mill, closing to uncover that the person who killed the mill owner is none other than Yun-ho, a member of the Inner Circle.
