Episode 5

Before she could speak, Soojin cut off the phone "sh*t" she said in frustration as she dropped the phone, *ding* she looked at the phone and said "oh give me a break!", she picked it up only to see a number she never wanted to be reminded of, sent her a message, it said "The files, Tomorrow!". She got angered and threw the phone, "not this again!" she said.

*The Next Day*

Jiwon thought of what Sunhee and Soojin had suggested, realizing that it could come to benefit her, she decides to go on it. She messaged Sunhee asking her for the location for the date, Sunhee e-mailed it to her, She said it was a highly rated restaurant that she had made reservations for. Jiwon said to herself "Soju serenades" "what a nice name". Minjae was curious, so he asked "miss Jiwon, where are you going?" she looked away from her phone, she was stunned that he asked, so she asked "curious are you?" "Well I only wish I could tell you" he looked at her from the mirror and sighed. Once she got off she asked him to go somewhere else and that she would call him if needed, She didn't want to put things out there, so she kept it only between Sunhee and herself. As she turned around she saw Haejin who had welcomed her warmly and thanked her for coming, he said "I sincerely apologize for Sunhee's action", but she replied "oh no don't worry about it, I came by my own will", Then they both walked to their table, he sat her down like a gentleman, and she laughed in surprise saying "thanks but I can do that myself". A waiter came up to them and asked what they would like to order Haejin asked for the grilled steak while she asked for a simple salad, She looked at him curious with a grin then she said "the other day before I was interrupted by the phone, I wanted to ask what do you do for a living?" he smiled "I'm a business owner" she looked even more curious "what business is it?" she asked, "it's a technological business" he said. They continued chatting, Jiwon couldn't help but notice how much of an independent man he was. Still she reminded herself why she was on the date.

They talked and talked throughout the whole date, but then she asked "don't you want to know what I do for a living?", he told her that Sunhee had already told him that, She asked "what else did she tell you?", he said "not much, she only told me your age and your work pretty much'', Jiwon was still curious, but she believed. Soon the date was over, and he had insisted on giving her a drive to her home, but she respectfully refused. Minjae arrived to pick her up, and he noticed how happy she looked judging by her smile, he said "you look happy" and she said "I guess I am", Minjae still wanted to know what happened, but he didn't ask.
