In the August 6 episode, Gong Woo Jin (Yang Se Jong) and Woo Seo Ri (Shin Hye Sun) started to develop feelings for each other.

Gong Woo Jin, who started to slowly open up his heart to Woo Seo Ri, thought she was getting a job at a bar to pay for her violin, so he went after her to save her. Later on, the two of them shared an enjoyable moment at the water fountain that led him to forget about his parked car. Then when Jennifer (Ye Ji Won) tried to use the plunger Woo Seo Ri gifted him to unclog the toilet, Gong Woo Jin stopped her and even labeled it “for the window” so that the same mistake wouldn’t happen again.

Gong Woo Jin’s changes started to transform Woo Seo Ri as well. Her heart fluttered when Gong Woo Jin joked around with her, and she became touched when she saw him handling the plunger she gave him with great care.

However, things started to head south when Gong Woo Jin saw similarities between Woo Seo Ri and his first love, not realizing that they are the same person, causing his trauma to resurface.

At the end of the episode, the drama paid tribute to their crew member Kim Kyu Hyun, who recently passed away.

Episodes 11 and 12 will be released on August 7 at 10 p.m. KST. In the meantime, catch up to the most recent episode below:
