By Ralph Reinhardt On Jan 22, 2023

Poong Episode 4 At the start of season 2 of The Joseon Psychiatrist, Gwang-il asks Poong if he can do acupuncture. He can’t, and Gwang-il says that’s reason enough to look into him. The Princess goes to see Poong and asks him to go to the palace with her. He says no because he doesn’t want to marry her and also because he wants to find out what’s going on with So-Cheon. The Princess doesn’t look sad as she says goodbye and wishes him luck.

Investigation into So-Cheon’s Suicide Note and Poong’s Relationship

The next day, Poong is free to go, and he checks on So-Cheon. Gye takes care of him, but when Poong is touched, he acts like it’s no big deal. Eun-woo asks Chil-sung to give her the suicide note, and when she compares the handwriting to So-books, Cheon’s she sees that it is similar.

The Princess also looks into So-case Cheon to win over Poong. She tells Gyesoo that she can help with the suicide note when she goes to see him. In return, she tells him how she feels, but Eun-woo cuts her off, which throws everyone off. The Princess gives Poong the book “The Tale of Hong-soon” by So-Cheon to read before he can follow Eun-woo.

The Gyesoo staff bet on who Poong will end up with in the meantime. Jang-goon is the only one who can break the tie, but he can’t choose between Eun-woo and the Princess. Poong goes up to Eun-woo and shows her the book the Princess gave him and how the suicide note is just a paragraph cut out of the book. He gives it to Gwang-il and tells him that if he still doesn’t listen, he’s the one who isn’t good at his job.

Eun-woo goes to the riverbank and talks to So-friends. Cheon They tell her that she was loved. Jung-soon also found the suicide note and remembered how So-Cheon would say she wanted to take a bath in the cold river to stop itching.

Revelations About So-Cheon’s Diary and Tensions Between the Princess and Gwang-il

The Princess hangs out with Gyesoo and gets to know Jang-goon as she gives him her copy of So-romance Cheon’s novel. Nam-Hae gives her and Court Lady Jung rice cakes, which she only reluctantly agrees are good. Eun-woo is confused about why So-cheon painted over her words, and then she realizes that it is a diary. She gives it to Poong to look at, but before they can, they hear Jang-goon crying. They run to him, and he is upset about the book the Princess gave him. They figure out that it’s another copy of So-diary.

Eun-woo goes to talk to the Princess about where she got the diary and asks her for help so that it can also help Poong. The Princess asks her for a favour in return, and she agrees. Eun-woo and Poong run to the bookseller, who tells them that he got the diary by accident when he was looking for So-newest cheon’s book.

So-cheon wakes up, and when they ask her about the diary, she remembers the people who picked on her. She’s scared to tell Gyesoo, but they make her feel better. At the governor’s office, the Princess walks in and tells Gwang-il to go back because she can finally get Poong now that Eun-woo has done what she asked. He says no, and she is very angry.

Hearing that, he goes to Gyesoo. So-cheon is awake, and he wants to ask her questions. Poong tells him she didn’t kill herself, but he won’t let him take So-cheon away from him as her psychiatrist. He asks if Poong has stopped being a doctor, which surprises the rest of Gyesoo. So-cheon is moved, so she begins to write her story.

So-Cheon Confronts Her Bullies and Poong’s Role in Her Recovery

The next day, Nam-hae is making a feast and wondering why Poong told her to. It turns out that it is for a Storyteller Choi, and in exchange, they want performance. Everyone, including the Princess and Gwang-il, goes to the market. Choi shows up in a mask and asks Jung-soon, a friend of So- cheon’s, to read with him. Jung-soon and her friends end up being mean to So-cheon, painting over her books and throwing them in the river.

The crowd starts to make fun of Jung-soon, who feels bad and starts to cry and tear up the book. So-cheon gets up on stage and tells everyone that the story is true and that Jung-soon really did push her into the river and make it look like she killed herself. The guards take her away. When the storyteller Choi takes off his mask, it’s Poong hugs So-cheon and tells her that her troubles are over.

Gwang-il is still not sure that So-cheon is better, but Gye tells him to stop being so skeptical. The medical inspector is told to go back to Hanyang at that moment. Gyesoo is happy, and she and Jang-goon walk back to the clinic, where Jang-goon gives Eun-woo his betting stick and says he likes her.

At Hanyang, the Chief Royal Physician is upset with how Gwang-il handled the whole situation and gives him one last chance to kill Poong.

The Princess’ Jealousy and Poong and Eun-woo’s Growing Relationship

The Princess, Poong, and Eun-woo help So-cheon copy and sell copies of her books all over the country. The King keeps his promise, though, and sends the money for Gyesoo. But the Princess sees Poong and Eun-woo smiling at each other, and this makes her angry.

Poong brings Eun-woo So-romance cheon’s books with him when they are alone and asks her to read them to him. She tells him that he might find it strange that one of the characters’ names is Poong. He says it’s even better as a joke, and they all laugh. The whole day, they read her books.

While this is going on, the Princess walks into the governor’s office and tells him to keep everyone under control, even the widows, because she doesn’t like it when Eun-woo breaks rules and flirts with men. She then tries to go to sleep, but she can’t stop thinking about Poong and Eun-woo making out. She walks away in a huff and goes to find Eun-woo. She tells her that she wants to ask for a favour and that she wants Poong’s heart. He shows up and hears her.

Poong the Joseon Psychiatrist Season 2 Episode 4 Review

We’ve been waiting since season 1 for the “psychiatrist” part of Poong The Joseon Psychiatrist, and in season 2 episode 4, we finally get it. Our main character doesn’t keep thinking about how he lost his acupuncture skills. Instead, he moves on and looks for other ways to help his patients get better, even if that means helping them with their mental health.

As for the main plot that will keep us interested along with the individual cases, it seems that season 2 has finally shown that the bad guys will be the Chief Royal Physician, Gwang-il, and the Princess, who don’t really seem like bad guys. We do hope, though, that Gwang-il and the Princess will put their differences aside and work together with Gyesoo.
