Lee Jin-wook’s Character Yun Seok Hun Caught in Major Scandal in JTBC Drama “Beyond the Bar”
The upcoming seventh episode of JTBC’s weekend drama Beyond the Bar will put Lee Jin-wook’s character, Yun Seok Hun, in the middle of a major scandal. The episode airs tonight, August 23, at 10:40 PM.
Yun Seok Hun, a top lawyer at the powerful firm Yullim, has so far been portrayed as flawless and highly skilled. But newly released stills show him unexpectedly caught in a scandal that spreads quickly among the firm’s power brokers. Viewers are left wondering what could have brought down a man known for his strict principles and reputation.



The drama has built up tension around Yun Seok Hun’s clash with Ko Tae-seop (played by Park Jeong-pyo), the son of Yullim’s founder and CEO Ko Seung-cheol (Kim Eui-sung). Yun Seok Hun, who rose in the firm through his abilities rather than office politics, has been in constant conflict with the existing hierarchy.
In a major twist, Kwon Na-yeon (Kim Yeo-jin), Yun Seok Hun’s mentor who was previously pushed out due to political strife, is set to return as Yullim’s CEO. Her comeback was expected to strengthen Yun Seok Hun’s position within the firm. Instead, the latest preview hints that his career might face its toughest challenge yet.
One of the key preview images shows Ko Tae-seop confidently carrying a manila envelope, raising suspicion about its contents. At the same time, Kwon Na-yeon is seen listening in with other lawyers, adding further tension to the scene.
The new episode of Beyond the Bar will reveal how Yun Seok Hun deals with this crisis and whether his alliance with Kwon Na-yeon can withstand the growing pressure inside Yullim.
