Tae-o, resigned to the unfolding relationship between Song-i and Do-hyeon, attempts to offer counsel. However, Do-hyeon remains resolute in his own course of action.

Tae-o was presented with an ultimatum, a situation that sparked a sudden clarity within him. The news of Song-i’s impending departure arrived with the announcement that Hun and Ga-rin also intended to leave the household.

A frank discussion regarding the household finances unfolded between Do-hyeon and his father. Meanwhile, Song-i journeyed to Jeonju, where an unexpected encounter with a familiar face occurred.

A quiet understanding dawns on Song-i: Tae-o has been a constant presence in her life, a steady thread woven through the fabric of her days. Meanwhile, Do-hyeon feels a sharp pang of displeasure whenever Song-i’s calls go unanswered.

Song-i paused at the house to give something back to Tae-o, and he reminded her of the past, of how their lives had once intertwined. A shadow seemed to fall over the family, as if they were collectively guarding a concealed truth.

Hun and Ga-rin have news to share with the others. Song-i resolves to speak with Tae-o’s father. Consequently, Tae-o finds himself accompanying Song-i on an excursion.

At the restaurant, Tae-o recounted an unusual observation to Song-i. The incident left him with a lingering unease, and he made a quiet decision: he would seek a full explanation from his father.

Further changes awaited within the house, as Tae-o and his companions began to understand the depth of friendship, family, and love. Song-i had a job interview.
