Du-Sik asks her to come out of the closet, but she got a leg cramp. He immediately carries her in a bridal style and successfully carries my heart with them. Hye-Jin reminds him to always finds time to answer her messages even though he is busy because she doesn’t like it when she can’t reach him. “What else that you don’t like? Let me hear it,” says Du-Sik. “Don’t lie to me. I don’t like it if there’s any secret between us,” answers Hye-Jin.
For a moment, we can see Du-Sik’s facial expression change. He does not give any response to it. Only silence fills with uncertainty and an empty smile. Lucky for him, Hye-Jin is distracted by his calendar. Yup, our Du-Sik is going all out by marking their first day as a couple on their calendars with big red hearts. He shyly denies the fact that he is whipped for her to the point that he slips his leg. Both of them fall into the bed. The tension rises. He slowly tries to go for another kiss… Until Hye-Jin’s phone rings. It’s none other than Pyo Mi-Seon unintentionally claiming our rights for SikHye to respect the singles!
After their romantic night goes offbeat, the two walk together hand-in-hand while happily talking about all the licenses that Du-Sik has. Everything is going smoothly until Hye-Jin notices the Gongjin Squad from afar. She immediately twists his hand out of panic. The squad immediately comes to separate them. They suggest that both of them should not meet each other and keep their distance. The next day, the Gongjin squad really do walk the walk as they hilariously try to keep them apart for safety reasons. From Chun-Jae is blocking Hye-Jin’s way to order her coffee directly from Du-Sik to Ms. Cho is taking charge to deliver food to Hye-Jin’s clinics. To add in the frustration, Du-Sik loses his phone so Hye-Jin is unable to reach him. It’s only 6 hours since their last meeting at Chun-Jae’s coffee and Hye-Jin is about to go crazy due to the distance. There comes a moment where they finally encounter each other on the street and Hye-Jin quickly runs towards him. They embrace one another but later Yoon-Kyeong and Geom-Cheol appear and separate the two lovebirds.
Let’s talk about another love story for a moment. My heart aches for Sung-Hyun. He’s been having it quite rough with the heartbreak, but on the other side, it’s great seeing the development that might rise after this. Sung-Hyun suddenly falls ill during their business trip. He has to be taken to the hospital and the doctor suggests he take a rest. Due to this, the work has to be put on hold and the team needs to stay longer. Well, we’re all human anyways. Even a heartbreak can finally take a toll on our professional lives. Despite that, everyone deserves to pause and reset. The interesting part of the scene is the slow-burns between Writer Wang and Sung-Hyun. We’ve seen that Writer Wang always prioritizes work, but she takes care of him well. Hopefully, things can progress smoothly between them later on.
Meanwhile, Eun-Cheol suddenly comes to the clinic for a random scaling treatment. Mi-Seon gently treats him. Before the scaling begins, Eun-Cheol stops her as he tries to convey his sincere thoughts with his mouth open because he knows she will understand whatever he says anyway. “It’s not that I don’t like you. I just want to slowly know more about you,” says Eun-Cheol. And just like that, Mi-Seon’s world is coming back to life.
It’s finally the day of their first date. Hye-Jin and Du-Sik wake up excitedly. They say when you fall in love, everything starts to feel like forever. That’s exactly what’s happening inside the world of our dimple couple. Hye-Jin and Du-Sik anxiously waiting for the time they’ll meet and hope the sun sets faster. Du-Sik even pretends that he is sick to leave his job early. The sun finally sets in Gongjin… while the villagers gather at the community hall, Hye-Jin excitedly calls Du-Sik’s name from afar as she runs towards him. Du-Sik happily opens her arms ready to embrace her. Both of them express that ever since they found each other everything seems to last forever and the loneliness intensifies. They tightly hug one another until the villagers suddenly appear out of nowhere.
The two lovebirds are bewildered by the situation. Du-Sik tries to step in and make up excuses about their hug but Hye-Jin steps up and admits that they are dating. She expresses that she wants to love him openly which brings smiles to his face. But here comes the twist: the villagers already know everything. They purposely played dumb and tried to separate both of them so they’d miss one another and openly admit their relationship.
After successfully pranking our SikHye, Geom-Cheol gives back Du-Sik’s phone. It turns out, he left it at their minimarket where Hye-Jin’s messages suddenly pop out with heart emojis which shocks the married couple. The villagers congratulate their relationship and share their gratefulness. Mr. Cho finally did a great job by keeping her mouth shut from spreading rumors. Gam-Ri even says that she does not have any more wishes since Du-Sik finally finds someone to stay by his side while Joo-Ri can’t take all the cringes and is about to throw up.
At last, our SikHye can finally express their love freely and safely.
After their first-ever phone call as a couple, Du-Sik marks the date of their first day as a couple on his calendar. He happily decorates it with stickers and shapes it into a heart. Meanwhile, Hye-Jin is having a nostalgic moment looking through her old diary. She’s fondly looking at her drawing of the beach day where she refers to Du-Sik as a prince of the sea while she is the princess. She laughs herself upon her taste in men. Oh my SikHye.
