...Taehyung,

연여주

don't go.

Surprise_

김태형

N, yes yes? Chairman? No... yes? What did you say? (He collapses to the floor in embarrassment.)

연여주

… Ugh… (The hand holding Taehyung’s shirt loosens its grip.

Sruk_

연여주

Yeah.. Kim Tae-hyeong... (sleeping

김태형

.. Ah… Sister, really… You thought I was real… (sobs

연여주

(Deep sleep

김태형

Sigh... Seriously, do you like playing with people's hearts? My heart almost thumped to death because of what you said just now...

김태형

It was just a snort... (mutters while looking at the sleeping female protagonist's face)

연여주

…Yeah, uh..

김태형

……..

김태형

Still... she's really pretty. That's why I like her. (Just staring at Yeoju's face)

Tiring_!

김석진

( _ Why aren't you coming out? Should I go in?

김태형

… This guy is a real master of breaking emotions. (He grumbles and gets up.)

김태형

( _ I'm going. I'm going out. Wait.

김석진

( _ I'll give you ten seconds. If you don't come out quickly, I'll go first.

김태형

Oh my gosh!!! (He suddenly comes out

Tuktuk_

김석진

I knew this would happen. What time is it now and you still haven't come to work...

김태형

(Out of the blue) Should I call you?

김석진

I made dozens of phone calls earlier. You didn't even read my texts. (Just staring at my phone.)

김태형

Hehehe… No, why did someone who can’t even wake up the next day after drinking drink drink yesterday…

김석진

Not just any alcohol, but wine. It's a flavor that doesn't really divide people into likes and dislikes, so you just drink it and it's gone.

김태형

Did the SG Group chairman feed you that yesterday? I've never liked that chairman from the beginning.

김석진

Shut up. Even if he's not in front of you, he's still the chairman.

김태형

Yes, yes - that's right. You must be the chairman.

김석진

You really… (annoying

Udangtang_!

연여주

Ouch! Oh my… my knees… (falls while running in the lobby)

김석진

…?! Chairman?!! (Runs to the female lead in a hurry

Tadak_

김석진

Are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere? (Checking on Yeoju's condition)

김태형

Mr. Chairman?!!! Are you okay?!! My knee hurts. Should I go to the infirmary?! (Urgent

연여주

Not to the infirmary... Just help me up... (with a frown on his face)

김태형

Really? Are you really okay? (Helps the female protagonist get up)

연여주

Yeah. I'm not that hurt.

김석진

… You still haven’t fully sobered up.

연여주

Ah… uh… (Avoiding eyes from Seokjin)

김석진

… … (Chipul

김석진

.. First, please go into the office. I'll bring you something to drink.

연여주

Yeah... (nod nod

김석진

(Moving his gaze to Taehyung) Don't think about doing anything stupid and just take her quietly.

김태형

Don't do it. What do you think I am?

김석진

……

김태형

..Shall we go, Chairman?

연여주

Oh yeah!

Pulsuk_

연여주

Ah… I don’t want to work…

김태형

Can I help you?

연여주

Oh, yeah! Help me!

Bulgeop_

김석진

No. (Opens the door and comes in)

연여주

… Ah… Secretary Kim…

김석진

Here's some honey water. Drink it and get back to work.

연여주

…What are you going to do, keep working? Did you get drunk? I’m really tired right now, and you’re just urging me on… (Grumble grumble

김석진

Mr. Chairman.

연여주

Oh, I get it…! I’ll do it quickly… (Drinks honey water)

김태형

Brother, please… (whispers softly)

김석진

You get out. The chairman can't concentrate because of you.

김태형

No, what?

김석진

Get out. Quickly. (Firmly)

김태형

.. Ha. (He goes out with a frown

widely_!

연여주

…… (sense

김석진

I'll be out too. If you need anything, just call me. Don't do anything else.

연여주

huh….

김석진

(bows and turns around

연여주

… Sigh.. (Lies down on the desk)

연여주

If only I hadn't drank so much alcohol yesterday...

연여주

……

연여주

No. Couldn't you have stopped me then?

연여주

No... It was my fault... Why did I eat so much...

연여주

Ugh… My head hurts…

Wooung_

연여주

연여주
