climax is engulfed in a shocking same-sex video scandal, and all eyes are on actor Ha Ji-won’s final choice.
In episode 9 of ENA’s Monday–Tuesday drama climax, airing on the 13th, a video revealing Choo Sang‑ah (played by Ha Ji-won)’s private life spreads indiscriminately online, unleashing a fierce backlash.
With the election just days away, Bang Tae‑seop (played by Ju Ji-hoon) suffers a devastating blow and personally issues a public apology to contain the damage. However, frigid public opinion and intensifying pressure within his party leave him cornered on all sides.
Choo Sang‑ah also faces the worst crisis of her career as her acting work teeters on the brink of suspension. Under piercing public scrutiny and a crushing sense of responsibility, she finds herself with nowhere left to run. To make matters worse, long-buried truths surrounding the pair surface, accelerating emotional conflict and driving their relationship toward an irreparable collapse.
With only two episodes left until the finale, viewers are laser-focused on what choices these cornered characters will make. In particular, today’s episode 9 is expected to be the decisive turning point that determines their final fates.
Meanwhile, climax airs every Monday and Tuesday at 10 p.m. KST on ENA and is also available on Genie TV and Disney+.
