Eugene Faces the Interrogation Room! 'The First Lady' Promises Shocking Developments

Hyunwoo Lee · October 21, 2025 at 00:32

Actress Eugene faces an unprecedented situation: a summons to the police station. A preview of the 'surrounded by enemies' police interrogation room scene promises a shocking development heading towards ruin.

'The First Lady,' an MBN Wednesday-Thursday mini-series, has proven its enduring power by ranking 8th in Netflix's 'Top 10 Series in Korea Today' as of October 20th, according to FlixPatrol. Notably, it has demonstrated a global surge in popularity, achieving 2nd place in the 'Today's Ranking' and 'Monthly View Count' for the Korean Wave Asian Drama category on Lemino, the OTT platform operated by Japan's largest telecom company, NTT Docomo, as of October 16th.

The previous episode left viewers in shock as Cha Soo-yeon's (Eugene's) ledger, containing compromising information on the Peaceful Freedom Party lawmakers – her last resort to block the special bill – was stolen by Kang Sun-ho (Kang Seung-ho). The cliffhanger featured Cha Soo-yeon roaring at the empty safe where the ledger should have been, followed by Hyun Min-cheol's (Ji Hyun-woo's) tearful speech, amplifying curiosity about the outcome of the special bill vote.

In this context, a scene depicting Cha Soo-yeon, in her capacity as the First Lady, directly appearing at the police station for interrogation heightens the tension. The scene shows Cha Soo-yeon arriving at the police station and undergoing intense questioning in the interrogation room. She exudes a confident demeanor, her emotions and even her gaze unwavering, creating a chilling atmosphere. Particularly, Cha Soo-yeon commands the room with her stoic silence and composed demeanor, offering no response.

Eugene dominated the set with her impeccable acting prowess, showcasing her solid acting skills through the 'sortie to the interrogation room' scene. Prior to filming, Eugene maintained intense focus solely on the script, raising the tension to its peak. She then portrayed the icy charisma of First Lady Cha Soo-yeon through a poker-faced performance, showing no hint of anxiety despite facing a crisis.

The production team stated, "This scene where Eugene appears at the police station is where the hidden truths of the First Lady, who has been running rampant for power and ambition, will surface," adding, "Please look forward to this week's broadcast to see what shocking twists and turns this unprecedented event of the First Lady being interrogated will bring."

Meanwhile, MBN's 'The First Lady' continues to captivate viewers with its unconventional narrative about a newly elected president demanding a divorce from his wife, who is set to become the First Lady. Episode 9 will air on October 22nd (Wednesday) at 10:20 PM.

Netizens are reacting with comments like, 'Eugene's acting is incredible!', 'Is the truth finally coming out?', and 'I can't wait for next week!' fueling anticipation for the upcoming plot.
