Soo Hyun – Jin Hyuk become lovers! Where will their romance take them?

People are excited to see how Cha Soo Hyun and Kim Jin Hyuk’s romance will progress as they fall deeper for each other every day.

However, there are many obstacles in their way, and it will be interesting to see what troubles they will face. Chairman Kim (Cha Hwa Yeon), the mother of Jung Woo Seok, and Cha Soo Hyun’s mother Jin Mi Ok (Nam Gi Ae) are both trying to get Cha Soo Hyun and Jung Woo Seok back together for their own personal ambitions, and Jung Woo Seok has begun expressing his feelings for Cha Soo Hyun. With Chairman Kim finding out the secrets about Jung Woo Seok and Cha Soo Hyun’s divorce, viewers are curious to see how this will affect Cha Soo Hyun and Kim Jin Hyuk’s relationship.

Soo Hyun, will she be able to hold on to Dong Hwa Hotel?

People are on the move to take Dong Hwa Hotel away from Cha Soo Hyun. She received the hotel as alimony when she divorced Jung Woo Seok, and she poured her heart and soul into the place to bring it back to life, expanding the business from what it once was.

However, Cha Soo Hyun’s position in the hotel is being threatened by people like Chairman Kim and Director Choi (Park Sung Keun). Chairman Kim has been trying to back Cha Soo Hyun in a corner, hiring reporters to write scandalous articles about her so that she will step down from the hotel and focus on being a housewife for Jung Woo Seok. Meanwhile, Director Choi has not only been assisting Chairman Kim in her endeavors, but he has also separately been trying to drive Cha Soo Hyun out so he can take her place. With Cha Soo Hyun being in such a high-profile position, it will be interesting to see if she can protect both the Dong Hwa Hotel and her relationship with Kim Jin Hyuk.

Jin Hyuk, will he be able to return to Seoul from Sokcho?
