The weight of responsibility pressed heavily on Park Dong-hoon’s life: he was the sole provider for his mother and two brothers adrift without work. Then, unexpectedly, a peculiar package arrived.

A miscommunication landed Dong-hoon in hot water, the subject of a bribery investigation. Lee Ji-an was the sole witness, yet she showed no inclination to assist him.

Ji-an subtly places a listening device in Park Dong-un’s office. Unknowing of her true employer, Dong-hoon agrees to treat her to dinner for a full month.

Concerned by Ji-an’s impulsive nature, Do Jun-yeong undertakes an investigation of his own, seeking to understand the person he has become involved with. Meanwhile, Dong-hoon’s brothers initiate a new venture.

Ji-an lightly touches Dong-hoon’s phone. A snippet of conversation drifts to her ears – the news that he has obtained Jun-yeong’s phone records. Immediately, she contacts the corporate investigators.

"You should leave that job and start your own venture," Kang Yun-hui urged Dong-hoon. She failed to realize he saw right through her carefully constructed facade.

At a remote campsite, Dong-hoon sought out Jun-yeong, determined to unravel the latter’s machinations. For a time, Jun-yeong appeared compliant, yielding to Dong-hoon’s demands.

From a distance, Lee Gwang-il observed Ji-an’s growing warmth towards Dong-hoon. The offer of a seat on the board presented Dong-hoon with a path toward retribution.

Jun-yeong recognized that Ji-an might prove to be his most reliable asset. Meanwhile, Dong-hoon’s family, upon hearing of the potential promotion, allowed themselves to anticipate a victory.

Dong-hoon remains tight-lipped about the true nature of his wounds. Ji-an, having finally cleared her obligation, ensures Gwang-il will no longer be driven to violence.

In the hours leading up to the interview, several directors worked to construct an unassailable narrative for Dong-hoon, anticipating that his relationship with Ji-an would be scrutinized.

Hearing Yun-hui’s account shifted Dong-hoon’s perspective. Meanwhile, Ji-an persisted in her unwelcome attentions towards him.

Ji-an’s account surprised Dong-hoon’s detractors. Dong-un came perilously close to identifying those responsible for his hardship.

The unveiling of Ji-an’s history drove her to seek refuge. Simultaneously, her recordings found their way to those seeking financial gain.

Despite understanding the extent of Ji-an's actions, Dong-hoon and Yun-hui find themselves compelled to defend her. Yet, a prevailing sentiment of justice seems to grip the rest.

The lack of substantial evidence might allow Jun-yeong to walk free. In the wake of a loss for Ji-an, Dong-hoon’s brothers ensure she is never truly alone.
