The two-for-one mystery

While a murder mystery is always guaranteed to pique viewers’ interest, “BITCH X RICH” takes it one step further by having a sordid tale of blackmail lurking in Kim Hye In’s shadow. After witnessing a fair-enrollment student named Kim Hae In (Jang Sung Yoon) get pushed off the roof of Cheongdam International High School, Hye In’s luck turns around as she gets admitted into the school in exchange for her silence. However, as she shops for accessories to accommodate her prestigious new life, she receives a threatening letter about her silence. Thus, leaving not one but two mysteries to solve in the show. Who pushed Kim Hae In off the roof? And who is seeking justice on her behalf by blackmailing Kim Hye In?

A new side of Red Velvet’s Yeri

Know for her bright personality as the maknae of Red Velvet and previously playing strong and good-natured characters, Yeri is taking on new territory, playing the role of the antagonist Baek Jenna. While you don’t see much of her in the first few episodes of the drama, her screen time still packs loads of impact. Yeri has truly mastered Baek Jenna’s signature glare and general disapproval for those she deems below her from teachers to fellow students—even the students who try and defend her to others. She brilliantly captures Baek Jenna’s dark, disinterested nature and leaves viewers waiting for more.

Kim Hye In and Baek Jenna’s budding rivalry

Of course, it wouldn’t be a high-school genre drama without a riveting rivalry between the rich, popular girl and the poor, new student. Fortunately, “BITCH X RICH” has perfectly set up the clashing nature between Kim Hye In and Baek Jenna before Kim Hye In even begins to attend Cheongdam International High School. After buying a new pair of luxury shoes, Kim Hye In accidentally leaves them in the bathroom and returns to find Baek Jenna wearing them. With her brash yet courageous attitude, Kim Hye In quickly confronts her, resulting in a catfight in the bathroom with hair-pulling, bickering, and more.

How will she and Baek Jenna continue to clash? And will Kim Hye In cause the fall of the Diamond 6 and their queen? Only time will tell.
