'Was it Love' Episode 10: Ae-jeong reveals that Ryu Jin is not the father, so is it Dae-o?

'Was it Love' Episode 10 sees Ae-jeong forced to reveal that her daughter Ha Nee's father is not who everyone thinks it is

In 'Was it Love' Episode 10, we see Ae-jeong get an outlet, at last, to express how she feels when all this while Dae-o had forced her to revisit the past. Turns out, over the course of their relationship, Dae-o was not as focussed on her as she was on him, and many a time had also sidelined her for work. The fact that he didn't have time to pamper her every insecure thought or even attempt to try and understand where all of that insecurity stems from is what put the two at loggerheads multiple times. She recalls all of that and assumes that the reason Dae-o decided to not follow her out when she threw a tantrum and instead concentrated on submitting a project for a contest was that he didn't love her enough. 

Thinking about it now, you would have expected her to come to her senses and appreciate his practicality at least a tad bit. However, this escalates too quickly after we learn that Dae-o cheated on her. When she confronts him about the same, he seems extremely surprised. It seems as if he finds this idea that he cheated on her alien. He also tells her that he never cheated on her, but all that Ae-jeong can remember is a girl kissing Dae-o. 

Considering Ae-jeong even slept with Ryu Jin while she was in a relationship with Dae-o, the fact that she is now accusing him of cheating her too is hypocritical. However, the conflict right now is how she doesn't want to revisit the idea of ever getting back together with Dae-o. So she spills all the anger that she had held within and Dae-o also gives up at last. At least in front of her.

However, everything from the past continues to haunt him. It is at this opportune moment that we see Dae-o meet Ae-jeong's daughter Ha-nee. He sees her go into a bar and follows her in and sees her as frustrated as her mother was a little while ago. She finds out that Ha-nee is having trouble with her friend Koo Pa-do's son Koo Dong-chan and she thinks that all of it is his fault. She tells him that it was because Dae-o asked him about being Ha-nee's boyfriend. She seems blind to the fact that her only friend has a crush on her. She is unaware of the reason why Dong-chan has been avoiding her. He saw a picture of himself as a baby with a woman who looks exactly like Ha-nee's mother. Since Ha-nee is also searching for her father, he puts all of it together and assumes the worst. He needs time to let it all sink in and if possible, find the truth behind the picture. 

However, Ha-nee is not patient. She wants to know why he didn't walk back home with her. She wants to know why he didn't speak to her one day and when he tries to deflect attention things become a mess. This scene is hilariously reflective of a scene between Ae-jeong and Dae-o in the past. It is this scene that makes us wonder again. Could Dae-o be the father? Considering how Ae-jeong had wanted to tell something important to Dae-o when she saw him with another woman, could it really be that he is the father?

Meanwhile, Ha-nee has told her grandmother that Ryu Jin is her father and that he abandoned Ha-nee and her mother to pursue acting and fame. She hasn't confirmed any of this, and yet she tells her grandmother, who begins to harbor hatred for this man too. At this time, Ryu Jin hurries to Ae-jeong's home because his agency's CEO Jennifer Song blackmails him that she will release information about him being the father of a child and ruining Ae-jeong's life. He wants to ensure that she is alright. Ae-jeong's mother who is mad at Ryu Jin sees him at her door and holding Ae-jeong which makes matter worse. She insults him by throwing garbage at him, blaming him for abandoning his daughter and he also kneels to apologize. Ae-jeong, is however completely startled because she doesn't understand why Ryu Jin would apologize.

So he tries to remind her of the one time and to his shock he learns that he is not the father. It seems that he was hoping to be Ha-nee's father to hold on to Ae-jeong this time and not the other way around. Now that all of that has come crashing, he doesn't seem able to accept. 

In the meantime, when Ha-nee is with Dae-o, she also tells him that she wants to search for her father to help her mother which shocks him. He asks her twice if her father is alive and she answers yes. He begins to wonder why Ae-jeong would have lied to him and he has a bad feeling about it all. He returns to confirm and he sees everything unravel outside Ae-jeong's house. So he asks Ae-jeong, if it is not Ryu Jin, is it him? On that note, the episode ends. 

New episodes of 'Was it Love?' will air on JTBC at 9.30 pm on Wednesdays and Thursdays and will be available to stream on Netflix.
