You had been dating Lee Seop since middle school, and your relationship had endured even after you moved to the United States for your university studies. Despite the distance, you had maintained contact, believing your love would withstand the miles and years apart. However, in the five years that followed, you noticed a change in Lee Seop’s behavior. His calls and messages became less frequent, and he seemed preoccupied. Hoping it was merely due to his busy schedule, you dismissed your worries, assuming he was just swamped with work as the Ceo of the TK Group.

Feeling the weight of being apart for so long, you decided to make a surprise trip from the United States to Korean. Excitement welled inside you at the prospect of reuniting with him after so long. Armed with a box of his favorite cookies, you made your way to his apartment. As you entered the apartment with anticipation, your heart sank. There he was, passionately kissing and nibbling the neck of another woman. The scene was a stark contrast to the affectionate memories you shared together.*
