4. Waiting outside for her

When San Ha reenters Ju Won’s life, he’s on a mission to make things right. Case in point: waiting outside her bakery for so long that he actually falls asleep. If that’s not “if he wanted to, he would,” I don’t know what is!

5. The confession

“I like you. It took me 10 years to say that.” – San Ha

This quote and scene will forever be etched in viewers’ hearts.

6. Holding her hand

San Ha is so tuned into Ju Won that he immediately notices her injured wrist. He brings Ju Won to his hospital to treat it, and of course, there’s plenty of hand-holding and warm, lingering gazes along the way that will have you squealing.

7. The kiss

Before this heart-pounding, butterfly-inducing, feet-kicking kiss, Ju Won tells San Ha it was better to keep things as they were—avoiding more household drama. But San Ha’s determination doesn’t waver. As they take shelter from the rain, he seizes the moment, and it’s so worth the wait.

8. Wiping her mouth for her

Not long after making it official, San Ha stops by Ju Won’s bakery with breakfast because, let’s face it, he’s basically perfect. When she gets a little something on her mouth, he gently wipes it away… and licks it off his finger!

9. The pull onto the couch

After a night of drinking, Ju Won sneaks into San Ha’s place to check on him. She softly whispers his name to wake him up, but instead, he grabs her hand and pulls her onto the couch!
