Across various platforms the preview for the upcoming thirteenth episode of "The World of the Married" broke 1.2 million views on May 6th.

In the twelfth episode, the lead characters played by Kim Hee-ae and Park Hae-joon comisserate over their son and their shattered relationship. The scene escalates into a passionate kiss and an implied sexual encounter. In the following voiceover, Park Hae-joon can be heard saying that he will come back, while Kim Hee-ae encourages him to protect his existing marriage.

These events follow on top of a previous conflict wherein both spouses are discussed as possible culprits for a death that is ultimately ruled as a suicide. Consequently, the future storyline trajectory of "The World of the Married" has been deliberately left in an ambiguous place. Hence the appeal of a preview, which may offer tantalizing hints as to where the story will go for its final four episodes.
