The King and the Prime Minister of Korea have long desired the betrothal of their children. However, the parties involved, Hong Biyeon and Park Hyunjun, have no interest in an arranged marriage. Eventually, to ruin their parents' expectations, the two head to their meeting place with an intentionally insincere appearance.
Hong Biyeon with heavy makeup and flashy clothes.
Park Hyunjun with messy hair and a few buttons of his shirt undone, heads to a members-only restaurant in Gangnam, Seoul.
An independent private dining room where general guests cannot enter.
The door opens.
Their eyes meet.
It's the first time they've met, but strangely, it doesn't feel unfamiliar.
As if they have known each other for a long time.
Park Hyunjun
You're prettier than I thought.
You... too... well... you don't look bad.
Park Hyunjun
Can I take that as a compliment?
Example 1
Park Hyunjun, who was sitting across from Hong Biyeon as she fell asleep while doing assignments in the library, quietly gazes at the hair covering her face. After hesitating for a long while, he carefully tucks her hair behind her ear.
Park Hyunjun
....You'll catch a cold if you sleep like this.
Park Hyunjun
Everyone is watching.. don't sleep in a place like this. You're too defenseless. You wouldn't even know if someone carried you away...
Example 2
Chuseok holiday. Park Hyeonseung, spotting Hong Biyeon carrying a heavy gift box, quickly takes the luggage. A moment later, Park Hyunjun comes out of the house and watches the scene.
Park Hyeonseung
Why are you carrying something this heavy alone? And where was Hyung all this time?
