Keum-bo Steps In to Help Albert in Undercover Miss Hong Episode 7
Undercover Miss Hong episode 7 opens with Albert visiting an auto repair shop, and this time, the story shows his perspective. He simply wants to check his car, but then he notices Keum-bo watching him from afar, which makes him uneasy, almost as if he has seen a ghost.
At first, he stays quiet and avoids confronting the mechanic connected to Keum-bo’s kidnapping. However, when he returns later to pick up his car, he starts asking careful questions.
The mechanic stays calm at first, but the moment Albert mentions a car with broken brakes, the man panics and nearly attacks him with a spanner, exposing his guilt.
Meanwhile, Keum-bo secretly follows Albert again, and soon, she sees him getting chased by three men. Without hesitation, she jumps in, steals a luxury car, and drives straight toward them to save him.
Because of this, it becomes clear that Albert wants answers about his uncle Myeong-hwi’s death. He feels frustrated because no one seems to care, and he also fears that he could suffer the same fate.
His suspicions grow even stronger after he overhears Song Ju-ran refer to the incident as an “accident,” which clearly sounds like a lie. Later, Albert and Jang-mi decide to work together and investigate the truth, but their plan hits a setback when No-ra accidentally throws away the ledger, leaving Bok-hee angry and their search in deeper trouble.

Bok-hee’s Failed Plan
Meanwhile, Bok-hee decides to claim the Outstanding Woman money for herself, and she even asks Jang-mi to help her do it. However, Jang-mi refuses right away because she knows it is illegal and wrong.
She also warns Bok-hee not to make a serious mistake because the money belongs to the company. Despite the warning, Bok-hee still goes to the bank to withdraw the money.
Unfortunately, she discovers that someone has already emptied the account. Earlier, Dal-su, the repairman and kidnapper, walked away with cash, which turns out to be Bok-hee’s money. Still, Bok-hee does not panic too much because she reminds herself that it was never truly hers.
At the same time, Jang-mi becomes the next Outstanding Woman, just as expected in Undercover Miss Hong. Albert celebrates her achievement by giving her flowers and taking a photo with her.
Afterward in Undercover Miss Hong episode 7, Jang-mi goes out with Albert to question him about his suspicious car incident. However, their meeting becomes awkward when Shin and No-ra suddenly join them, creating a tense, double date situation where everyone hides secrets.
Meanwhile, the company faces a serious financial crisis as more merchants rush to sell their shares. Because of this, Jung-woo suggests using ultra-short-term funding by borrowing money through Hanmin’s collateral and bonds. Pil-beom quickly agrees, showing how desperate the situation has become.
Mi-sook’s Determination
This part of Undercover Miss Hong episode 7 shifts its focus to Mi-sook and her daughter, Bom. At work, Mi-sook pushes herself to sell more because she wants to earn extra money and build a better future for her child.
This also explains why she previously worked in a different department. At the same time, Bom spends most of her time alone at home. However, she runs into bullies at the nearby playground, who tease her and say she does not have a mother.
Because of this, Mi-sook’s roommates step in to protect Bom, but the bullies do not take them seriously at first. Then, No-ra steps forward and pretends to be Bom’s bodyguard, even calling her “ma’am” and giving her a new Barbie doll.
As a result, Bom quickly becomes popular, and the bullying stops. Still, Mi-sook feels upset because Bom left the house without permission. Nevertheless, the incident motivates Mi-sook to work harder than ever.
Soon in Undercover Miss Hong episode 7, she becomes the top seller on her team, which makes her proud and happy. Through these experiences, both Mi-sook and Bom grow closer to Jang-mi, strengthening their small but meaningful family.
