Kyoko’s crazy temper and mercurial ways manage to undo even the hot headed Koo Hizuri. Before he knows it, his intentions to drive her crazy and make her suffer fly off like a breeze as he finds himself won over by her pure nature and innate talent. He even ends up helping her to become a better star by giving her much needed acting advice and challenging her to a special test as an actress – convince him by playing the role of his son!

The job of trying to play a boy convincingly, let alone as Hizuri’s son, seems to be too much, but Kyoko never backs down, never gives up! She models the boy after the one she knew who touched her heart as a child so long ago – the boy she calls Korn. In doing so she doesn’t realize what she has touched upon. As she takes on the role, never letting up, it causes an interesting reaction from Hizuri and an even more astonishing one from Ren. The big clues to Ren’s past start here in the latest intrigue meets wacky shenanigans of Skip Beat.

The reason Hizuri was taunting Kyoko was to draw someone out. He had since given up on that as soon as Kyoko won him over. Al the time she is spending with him has Ren going nuts with jealousy. When he finds out who she is with it sends him through the roof. Just what is Hizuri to Ren to make the talented and handsome young actor react so strongly? Kyoko has managed to put herself in the middle of a precarious situation and may soon find she is in the brief space of peace, the eye of the storm, before everything hits the fan!

IN SUMMARY:
Kyoko unknowingly gets close to Ren’s secret in the latest Skip Beat!
