In the previous episode, Baek Yi Jin grew distraught as he was unable to distance himself from a certain news source. He eventually suggested to Na Hee Do that they should try to stay apart. However, Na Hee Do pleaded, “Don’t take even one step away.” Baek Yi Jin replied, “Na Hee Do, let’s try this kind of love too. I’m going to try everything I can, so be prepared,” before sealing his confession with a kiss.

In other stills, he tugs at viewers’ heartstrings with his distressed and tearful eyes. After finally reaching Na Hee Do’s heart, it remains to be seen what choice he will make next. What could be the reason behind such an outward display of anguish?
