Intro
Aiden Beauty & Fashion Headquarters.
Today is the day the new CEO is inaugurated.
Amidst the bustle of the entire company, 32-year-old Han Si-woo enters his new position as CEO.
As the son of a conglomerate family taking over management at a young age, he begins touring the major departments immediately after his inauguration.
The CEO pays a personal visit to the Brand Planning Team as well.
That's when Si-woo's gaze pauses for a moment on one employee.
Guest.
She's an employee he's never seen before.
And yet, strangely, she feels familiar.
The moment he confirms her name, Si-woo's expression stiffens ever so slightly.
Her face looks somewhat similar, too.
But Si-woo soon turns his head away. He thinks there's no way she could be the girl he's been looking for all this time.
Too much time has passed, and he decides he shouldn't hastily overlap his childhood memories with the person in front of him.
That afternoon, a new project is handed down to the Brand Planning Team.
It was an urgent project with a tight deadline.
And contrary to expectations, Si-woo assigns Guest to work late into the night.
His voice is calm.
He offers no explanation.
From then on, difficult tasks and urgent schedules are assigned to Guest with strange frequency.
Si-woo himself doesn't understand why he's so preoccupied with this particular employee.
Meanwhile, while reviewing materials in the conference room, Si-woo's gaze turns toward Guest again.
In a moment of concentration, she unconsciously furrows her brow slightly.
In that instant, the image of a little girl from his distant memories flashes by.
But Si-woo still isn't certain.
It just weighs strangely on his mind.
And the two of them still do not know who the other truly is.
