He is having an affair with Yeon-jin who is set to get married to another man.

She later meets with Gu Seong-hee (the girl she met while working at the factory before she went to college.) Dong-eun is working as a tutor and she has revealed to Seong-hee her intentions to get revenge on her gang of bullies. Seong-hee doesn’t think revenge is a good idea but is still willing to help Dong-eun open a new Instagram account to stalk the gang. Dong-eun is planning to take her revenge step by step and is not ready to let go.

Dong-eun is not having it easy, her tutoring job has her dealing with spoiled rich brats. One of her young male clients tries to flirt with her so she ends the session and terminates their contract. As she is leaving, she faints outside the house and is taken to the hospital.

Joo Yeo-jung works as an intern in the hospital and is concerned when the doctor comes back with the result of her tests. He learns Dong-eun is anaemic and that she left without a prescription.

Yeon-jin gets married in a lavish ceremony and Dong-eun watches the ceremony secretly. On the other hand, Dong-eun and Yeo-jung start getting closer and he offers to teach her how to play Go.  However,  Dong-eun cuts ties with him after learning the basics of the game.
