'Conglomerate X Detective 2' Episode 6, 5-Star Hotel Murder Case Jeon Yu Jin Confession... Jin Isu and Joo Hyera Solve

In episode 6 of SBS’s Friday-Saturday drama ’Chaebol X Detective 2,’ Jin Isu (played by Ahn Bo-hyun) and Joo Hyera (played by Jung Eun-chae) solved a murder case that occurred at a five-star hotel. The case involved the murder of hotel concierge employee Oh Minyoung (played by Ha Seo-yoon), with Kang Chunsik (played by Lee Seok) and hotel CEO Yeom Jaeseop (played by Choi Deok-moon) identified as prime suspects. Jin Isu began the investigation by using the maids, who were familiar with the hotel’s internal affairs, as informants. Early in the episode, Kang Chunsik was suspected as a long-term guest who had a crush on the victim, but Jin Isu stated, ″I don’t think Kang Chunsik is the culprit,″ shifting the investigation toward Yeom Jaeseop. Forensic results also revealed that Oh Minyoung had contacted Yeom Jaeseop first to arrange a meeting. Joo Hyera questioned Yeom Jaeseop about his meeting with Oh Minyoung on the day of the incident. Yeom Jaeseop testified that he gave 200 million won to comfort Oh Minyoung, who had been abused by his wife. Joo Hyera then uncovered that Yeom Jaeseop had been threatened by Oh Minyoung, who discovered his relationship with new hotel employee Jeon Yu Jin (played by Park Tae-rin). Oh Minyoung pressured Yeom Jaeseop for 1 billion won, and it was revealed that Jeon Yu Jin murdered Oh Minyoung. During the aftermath of the case, Joo Hyera suspected the existence of an accomplice. She speculated, ″Someone who can open all the rooms and clean perfectly... a maid!″ It was revealed that Jeon Yu Jin’s mother worked as a maid and helped move the body and clean up after the crime. Jeon Yu Jin’s mother falsely confessed to being the culprit, but Jeon Yu Jin confessed after presenting the murder weapon, bringing the case to a close. Meanwhile, the Violent Crimes Unit 1 conducted an investigation crossing borders using Jin Isu’s private jet. Following Mexico, they headed to Hanoi, Vietnam, as shown in preview videos and on-site stills. The team comfortably spent time on the private jet, fully adapting to Jin Isu’s style of ″money-driven investigation.″ Joo Hyera joked to Jin Isu, ″Hey, it must be nice having so much money,″ to which Jin Isu replied, ″It’s not a bad thing.″ Park Junyoung (played by Kang Sang-joon) and Choi Kyungjin (played by Kim Shin-bi) also naturally used the private jet, demonstrating strong teamwork.
