Rowoon’s Vengeance Ignites As Shin Ye Eun And Park Seo Ham Face Danger In “The Murky Stream” Finale
Ahead of its highly anticipated finale, the Disney+ original series “The Murky Stream” has unveiled new stills hinting at a stormy and emotional conclusion.
Set in a lawless Joseon era where the once-clear Gyeong River has turned into a murky stream, “The Murky Stream” follows the turbulent fates of Si Yool (Rowoon), who hides his past and becomes a rogue; Choi Eun (Shin Ye Eun), the wise and righteous youngest daughter of Joseon’s top merchant; and Jeong Cheon (Park Seo Ham), who dreams of becoming an incorruptible official.

The newly released stills capture Si Yool consumed by rage. At the end of Episode 7, the usually composed Si Yool was left devastated by the death of Mal Bok (Ahn Seung Gyun), whom he regarded as family. Overwhelmed by both grief and fury, he begins his calm yet determined preparations for revenge.
His piercing gaze toward Wang Hae (Kim Dong Won)—the man who took everything from him—reflects the depth of his anguish. Even when Park Mu Deok (Park Ji Hwan), the man who once led him down the outlaw’s path, warns him, “He’s not someone you can take on,” Si Yool stands firm, vowing, “He will pay the price.”
The stills also highlight Si Yool’s honed strength and battle-ready physique, built through years of survival, raising anticipation for the intense action that awaits in the final showdown.
Meanwhile, tension escalates as Choi Eun is seen fleeing urgently through the night, aided by Jeong Cheon. Her pale, frightened expression and his defensive stance with a sword hint at the looming danger ahead.
In previous episodes, Jeong Cheon joined forces with Senior Guardian General (Choi Won Young), who aimed to overthrow the corrupt powers controlling Joseon, with support from the Choi family merchants. With danger now closing in, curiosity grows about who stands in their way.
As Choi Eun’s father Choi Jung Yeop (Yoo Sung Joo) warns, “From now on, you’ll need to harden your heart,” the fate of the three young souls—Si Yool, Choi Eun, and Jeong Cheon—hangs in the balance. With the current growing darker and stronger, “The Murky Stream” is set to deliver a fierce and unforgettable finale.
Episodes 8 and 9 of “The Murky Stream” will be released on October 17.
