The buried truth behind a seven-year-old murder has finally come to light, sending Climax into a sharp narrative escalation.
In episode 3, the case of Oh Gwang-jae resurfaced through Park Jae-sang, who is on the verge of release. A crucial recording triggered a chain reaction, as hidden agendas collided and long-suppressed tensions erupted.
Suspicion now points toward Bang Tae-seop and his wife Chu Sang-ah, played by Ju Ji-hoon and Ha Ji-won, raising the possibility that the couple stands at the center of the murder. As the truth begins to crack open, their concealed power and motives are gradually exposed.
Bang Tae-seop makes a decisive move, abandoning the prosecution and entering politics as the first recruit of the “Creative Party,” marking a pivotal shift in the power structure. At the same time, the past ties, promises, and betrayal between Park Jae-sang and Chu Sang-ah intensify the emotional stakes.
The emergence of the Han Ji-soo case further hints at the origin of the tragedy, expanding the narrative’s scope.
With its tightly wound pacing and escalating stakes, Climax continues its upward trajectory, climbing from 2.9% at launch to 3.8% and now 3.9%.
The series follows prosecutor Bang Tae-seop as he steps into a ruthless power cartel in pursuit of ultimate authority, unfolding a high-stakes survival drama.
