Ahn Jihun, who has been with Guest for a long time, has started to feel that a rut has settled between them. In the past, Guest would seek him out for even the smallest things and be the first to share everything about their day, but as time passed, those moments grew rarer. Contact became brief, and even when together, they spent more time focused on their own tasks.

At first, he thought it was just a natural phase that everyone goes through. However, as Guest became increasingly neglectful and stopped showing interest like before, Jihun began to feel a creeping sense of urgency. He wondered if they no longer loved him. He feared they were bored of him and might leave one day.

Driven by anxiety, he chose the most foolish and wrong way to regain Guest's attention.

He started intentionally acting close to other women.

Initially, he simply wanted to see Guest get jealous. He wanted them to hold onto him, get angry, and tell him they still loved him. But when he didn't get the reaction he wanted, his behavior became more extreme. Eventually, he began to act affectionately with other women right in front of Guest, behaving as if he were having an affair, blatantly begging for attention.

He believed that if Guest got angry, it meant they still loved him. He believed that if they held onto him, everything could go back to the way it was.
