‘Last Summer’ Premieres as Episode 2 Stills Tease Heated Confrontation

Early reaction highlights a slow-burn mystery that withholds an anticipated twin element from pre-release descriptions.

Overview

  • KBS 2TV’s new romance follows childhood friends who reunite in their hometown and begin uncovering the long-buried truth about their first love.
  • Episode 1 introduces Baek Do Ha, now a U.S.-based architect, returning to Patan and clashing with civil servant Song Ha Gyeong over their divided family house.
  • The premiere sets up an accidental cohabitation after Do Ha asserts his claim to his half of the home and blocks Ha Gyeong’s planned sale.
  • New stills for Episode 2 show Do Ha confronting Ha Gyeong’s ex, Jeon Nam Jin, at the “peanut house,” with a tense exchange that previews a provocative remark.
  • Critics note the drama’s deliberate withholding of information, including confusion over an advertised twin role, even as details like Do Ha’s monthly support for their dog hint at ongoing ties.
