“Beauty and Mr. Romantic” Episode 39 & 40 Recap:

- Ji Young recalls how Mi Ja mistreated her and exploited her societal reputation to borrow money for personal gain. She pretends not to have regained her memories to avoid detection and decides to move out, taking only her grandmother with her.
- Ma Ri finally confesses her feelings to Do Jun and asks him out. Do Jun has mixed feelings, but they are mutual.

- Pil Seung senses that something is different about Ji Young and suspects she has regained her memories as Do Ra, though she keeps this hidden from him.
- Mi Ja discovers that Ji Young and her grandmother have rented a decent apartment and is furious that Ji Young left without notice. Mi Ja asks to live with them, or have Ji Young let her manage the money Ji Young earns as an actress. Ji Young, appalled by Mi Ja’s unchanged behavior, kicks her out.
- Despite the fact that Ji Young’s grandmother is not her biological relative, her grandmother’s loving treatment and inheritance are far superior to her biological mother Mi Ja. Mi Ja finds it odd that Ji Young suddenly has so much money, and Jin Dan is confused as to as to why Ji Young is paying the debt instead of Mi Ja, who originally borrowed it.

- Jin Dan’s resentment towards Pil Seung intensifies upon learning that Pil Seung might inherit the APP Group. Sang Gu, Jin Dan’s biological father, also learns this from Ae Gyo and becomes greedily hopeful that his son might take over the company. Ae Gyo suggests that Ma Ri might be causing these developments, leading Sang Gu to consider dangerous actions against either Ma Ri or Pil Seung.
- Ji Young’s grandmother, because of her dementia, mistakes Mi Ja for her dead daughter and now is asking Mi Ja to live with her and Ji Young.
