The K-Drama, Wonderful World, has only been on the fourth episode but it's already full of heavy drama lines. Like Kim Nam-Joo's character, avid fans were surprised to know of Kang Soo-Ho's affair. But we're not so sure it's the right woman revealed in episode 4.
Spoiler Warning: This article includes spoilers for Wonderful World episode 4, so proceed with caution.
Who Did Kang Soo-Ho Have an Affair With?
Avid fans of the show have known of Kang Soo-Ho's affair since the second episode of Wonderful World. After all, it was the only way Kang Soo-Ho (played by Kim Kang-Woo) backed down from becoming a whistleblower of his political rival, Kim Jun (played by Park Hyuk-Kwon).
Mr. Kim showed So-Ho a clip of his front gate on his tablet. Just moments after seeing the clip, Soo-Ho backed out of his decision to reveal Mr. Kim's secrets to the media.
In episode 3 of Wonderful World, Eun Soo-Hyun (played by Kim Nam-Joo) learns her husband's infidelity after receiving a photo in her dressing room. She has no way of knowing who sent the photo but is intent on finding out.
Like Soo-Hyun, the photo does not reveal the identity of the woman since her back is against the camera. This makes us wonder who was Soo-Ho having an affair with.
What Wonderful World Episode 4 Tells Us
After some thought, Soo-Hyun decides to confront her husband about the photo. He admits that he had an affair during the time they were separated (while she was in prison).
But he promises that it was someone not worth remembering and that it happened so long ago. With this, the couple decides to put it behind them and focus on their future.
Still, Soo-Hyun is left wondering who the mystery woman is. Later in the episode, she tails her husband's car as he drives to a hotel.
She manages to sneak into the hotel and up to the 7th floor. When the door opens for her husband, she is shocked to know that her husband is meeting their neighbor, Yoon Hye-Geum (played by Cha Soo-Yeon).

Why We're Not Convinced It's Her
Although Hye-Geum is being painted as the woman Soo-Ho has an affair with, many are not convinced that it's really her. That's because in the first episode, Hye-Geum was recording her son outside of Soo-Hyun's house.
It's possible that she knew Soo-Ho had a woman in the house and was trying to record the mystery woman to show Soo-Hyun later.
But unfortunately, Hye-Geum never had a chance to do that because of the tragedy. It's also possible that Hye-Geum was the one who recorded the woman who ran out of the house in a frenzy and left the gate open.
After all, this is the clip that Mr. Kim showed Soo-Ho.
Who Do Fans Think Kang Soo-Ho Has an Affair With?
So if it wasn't Hye-Geum, who was Soo-Ho having an affair with?
Although it feels too predictable and immoral at the same time, we can't help but think it was Soo-Hyun's adopted sister, Han Yu-Ri (played by Lim Se-Mi). She did seem pretty nervous when Soo-hyun first got the photo of her husband's affair.
And when Soo-Hyun showed the photo to her, Yu-Ri seemed a little nervous instead of shocked. She also left the cafe in a hurry.
Here's what avid fans of the show think too:
Our theory is that in the fourth episode of Wonderful World, Soo-Ho met up with Hye-Geum at the hotel because he suspected her of leaking the photos.
He could have guessed that Mr. Kim got the blackmail clip from her, which is why he met up with her for a confrontation.
