As episode 7 of Face Me approaches, fan discussions about the identity of Jeong Woo's fiancé's murderer have taken over social media.

The crime thriller, starring Lee Min-ki as Cha Jeong-woo and Han Ji-hyun as Min-hyung, has kept viewers on edge. The investigation into the murder of Hyo-ju's father has revealed shocking twists. In episode 6, the revelation that Min-hyung's brother, Lee Jin-seok, is the convicted killer of Jeong Woo's fiancé ignited a wave of excitement and fan theories.

Amid the speculations, many fans focus on one character: Jeong Woo's friend and colleague, Han Woo-jin, portrayed by Lee Yi-kyung. Fans are debating clues, including the character's suspicious behavior. One fan commented, fueling speculation among viewers of Face Me,

"I am convinced that he (Han Woo-jin) is Jeong Woo's fiancé's murderer. He is just too good for a plot like this! #FaceMe gets better and better. I don't understand the low ratings on MDL. It deserves more than the 7.7(!) it has now."
"The odds are he (Han Woo-jin) is (last role, notable supporting character actor), but I tell you this: he is playing it very close to the vest. There's very little he's giving away. But if #BehindYourTouch told us anything, it's don't trust the funny guys. The hospital head also fits tbh." a viewer commented.
"you can’t give #LeeYiKyung a role and ask me to believe that he isn’t involved in some shady business." wrote another viewer.
"Junsuk, under the influence of drugs, was easily framed for Dr. Cha’s fiancé murder. The real perpetrator could be Han Woojin; he was part of the volunteering community in prison and heard about the witness from Lee’s call." posted this X user.
"I can’t blame Min-hyung for doubting her brother, given his past troubles. This situation is so tough. I really feel for both Jung-woo and Min-hyung’s brother. But my eyes are on the lawyer and Woo-jin. #FaceMe #FaceMeEp6 #LeeMinKi #LeeYiKyung #HanJiHyun" this netizen commented.

For many fans, the speculation that Han Woo-jin is the true culprit has become even more convincing after episode 6 aired on November 21.

"I have several suspects in mind, one of them is Woo Jin (I hope I'm wrong) or whoever you least expect is the villain of the story. Episode 6 left me with a lot of theories." speculated another netizen.
"#FaceMe after today's episode, I am almost 98% sure this guy is the actual murder. He has some kind of grudge against Jung-woo, I am sure. And after Mary My Husband, I fail to see him in/as a positive character 😭😭" shared another viewer.
"Am I the only one suspecting that his friend, Doc HanUjin, is behind all these attacks on him? #FaceMeEp6 #FaceMe" remarked this individual on X.

South Korean drama Face Me (Korean: 페이스 미), starring Lee Min-ki, Han Ji-hyun, Lee Yi-kyung, and Jeon Bae-soo, premiered on November 6, 2024, on KBS2. The series airs every Wednesday and Thursday at 21:50 (KST) and is also available for streaming on Viki in select regions.

Face Me follows Cha Jeong-woo, a plastic surgeon with unmatched skill but little empathy for his patients. Once an emergency medicine doctor, Jeong-woo left his profession after losing his lover in a mysterious incident. Now, he is celebrated for his surgical precision but criticized for his cold demeanor.

The storyline of Face Me takes a pivotal turn when Jeong-woo becomes involved in a case led by homicide detective Lee Min-hyung. A misjudged decision involving a patient leads to Jeong-woo’s reputation being damaged. To recover, he begins reconstructive surgeries for crime victims as part of a social responsibility initiative.

Jeong-woo and Min-hyung face unexpected challenges as their professional paths intertwine following the death of Jeong-woo’s client. In the process, they uncover a shocking truth: Min-hyung’s brother is the man responsible for Jeong-woo’s wife’s murder. Seven years after the crime, Min-hyung’s brother is released and seeks revenge on Jeong-woo, blaming him for ruining his life.

Together, they work through cases that reveal buried truths about Jeong-woo’s past and the unsolved mysteries surrounding his lover’s death.


Face Me combines medical and crime drama elements, exploring themes of redemption, justice, and emotional growth.

Episode 7 of Face Me is set to air on KBS2 on November 27, 2024, at 9:50 PM (KST). Streaming will be available on Viki in select regions.
