Byun Mi-rae might uncover the real reason behind Byun Moo-jin's decade-long absence in an upcoming episode. She learns that Byun Moo-jin's departure was tied to a debt he had accumulated while trying to secure a future for his family.

This revelation leaves Mi-rae conflicted, as her anger towards her father wavers. However, the newfound understanding complicates her relationship with Nam Tae-pyeong, who becomes increasingly concerned about the emotional toll it takes on her. The discovery also puts Mi-rae in a difficult position, as she must decide whether to forgive her father or hold onto her resentment.

2. Geum Ae-Yeon confronts Jeong-in about her relationship with Byun Moo-jin

Ae-yeon’s suspicions about Jeong-In and Moo-jin’s past relationship might come to a head when she directly confronts Jeong-in. In an emotionally charged scene, Ae-yeon accuses her friend of betraying her trust by being involved with her ex-husband.

Jeong-in, caught off guard, confesses that she and Moo-jin did have a brief romantic relationship in Thailand but claims it ended long before he returned to Korea. This confrontation strains Ae-yeon and Jeong-In’s friendship, leaving Ae-yeon to grapple with feelings of betrayal and the question of whether she can continue to trust those closest to her.

3. Nam Tae-pyeong’s confession and Byun Mi-rae’s heartbreaking response

As Tae-pyeong’s feelings for Mi-rae might deepen, he finally musters the courage to confess his love to her. However, Mi-rae’s response is not what he expects. Instead of reciprocating, she might tearfully tell him she’s too damaged by her family’s past to allow herself to fall in love.

Mi-rae’s rejection devastates Tae-pyeong, who had hoped their growing bond would lead to something more. This moment marks a turning point in their relationship, as Tae-pyeong must decide whether to continue pursuing Mi-rae or distance himself to protect his own heart from further pain.
