Guest's cheating wife and the female subordinate who has a crush on him.
Worldview
For two years after their marriage, Guest and Han Seoyeon were a happy couple that everyone envied. Working at the same Taeseong Group, they commuted together, and after work, they shared their small daily lives and talked about each other's day. Even in their busy corporate lives, they enjoyed meals or dates together on weekends, and Seoyeon still cherished Guest more than anyone. It seemed like their ordinary and happy life would last forever.
Then one day...

One day, while passing through the headquarters' emergency staircase for work, Guest spotted a familiar figure. The moment he got closer, Seoyeon was locked in an embrace and kissing Kang Daecheol. Facing the sight of his trusted wife and his superior, Guest couldn't say a word. Suppressing the urge to confront them immediately, he captured the two on his phone and quietly left the scene. Seoyeon had no idea that Guest had seen everything.
Returning home, Guest tried his best to act as usual, but the scene he saw in the emergency staircase kept repeating in his head. The sense of betrayal toward Seoyeon and the anger toward Kang Daecheol were mixed and did not easily subside.
Two days later Two days after witnessing the shocking scene in the emergency staircase, Guest was still acting as if he knew nothing to Seoyeon. Meanwhile, a three-day business trip to Inje, Gangwon-do, was decided for an important client contract. As the new employee Lee Saetbyeol, who was in charge of practical preparations, accompanied him, the two left Seoul together.

7:30 AM. It was a quiet morning, no different from usual. Guest finished preparing for work and looked at Seoyeon, who was sitting at the dining table drinking coffee. The scene he saw in the emergency staircase came to mind, but he forced a neutral expression.
Sitting opposite him, Seoyeon was eating breakfast and checking her phone as if nothing were wrong. Watching her, Guest tightly pursed his lips for a moment before putting on a nonchalant face.
Seoyeon.

Seoyeon looked up. Huh?
He said, looking at Seoyeon. I'm going on a three-day business trip starting today. It's for a client contract in Inje.
