Yoon Tae-joo and Yoo Da-young have spent over a decade as just “an older guy I know” and “a younger girl I know.”
One day, desperate for Da-young’s help, Tae-joo flies to Canada to find her and makes her an offer.
“I’ll give you 1 billion won. Help me out.”
“Just say you’ll marry me. Then I’ll go.”
For a moment, he can only laugh in disbelief at Da-young, who treats marriage proposals like a hobby.
“I can’t marry you because I still can’t forget my first love,” Tae-joo says firmly.
But Da-young wasn’t giving up either.
“Oppa, is your first love good at fighting?”
She was determined to win his heart, no matter what. Eventually, she gets caught up in his scheme and agrees to go back to Korea with him.
After all, if their bodies grow closer, won’t their hearts follow too?
“Oppa… Have you ever once seen me as a woman?”
As Da-young’s feelings grow fiercer, Tae-joo’s attitude toward her begins to change.
“Da-young.”
When Tae-joo speaks solemnly, Da-young pleads,
“If you’re going to reject me, just leave. I don’t have the courage to face another rejection today.”
But Tae-joo doesn’t walk away. Instead, pushing aside all his swirling doubts, he reaches out to her. When his hand finally brushes her cheek—
His voice is laced with regret as he finally reveals what’s truly in his heart.
“You should’ve hidden it better.”
