Will Ko Kyung Pyo accept Park Shin Hye’s offer on “Undercover Miss Hong”? Set in the late 1990s, tvN’s “Undercover Miss Hong” is a comedy starring Park Shin Hye as Hong Geum Bo, an elite financial supervisory officer in her 30s who goes undercover as a 20-year-old entry-level employee at a securities firm where suspicious financial transactions have been detected. Spoilers On the previous episode of “Undercover Miss Hong,” Hong Geum Bo succeeded in her plan to oust Shin Jung Woo (Ko Kyung Pyo) from Hanmin Securities.
