The story is getting more interesting. At the opening of a new hotel in Sokdu. the CEO confesses that she is ‘more than friends with him’. Nobody expected this response & it shuts up the reporters.
Meeting her mother-in-law makes him realise what kind of life she must have endured. He is more worried about her. She comes down to congratulate the team for making it a success. The team gets overwhelmed & leaves. They are left alone staring at each other.
She has work & cannot join him for tea. But finishing her work she makes it there. They go for a walk hand in hand. She is becoming more comfortable with each meeting or encounter. There are plans to open another hotel in Cuba.
When Mr Nam sees them coming out together, he fakes stomach ache. Was it so sweet of him! He is trying to give her a chance to live for herself. He has been threatened to get a transfer. Thinking of not upsetting her, he thinks of the good memories to propel us forward. She senses he is acting weird.
Walking alone, he jogs to her place. He doesn’t have her photograph. They sit on the sofa & click a few. It is his first time to her place. She remarks that he always comes to her. First Sokdu & now her place.
They have each got a display of gifts. The footwear. He has the soft toy & the christmas ball. She has the christmas ball & the lipstick. She has gifted him with a tie, recently.
