In the upcoming episode, Yoon Jeong Jae encounters Kang Seo Hyeon (Baek Eun Hye), the biological mother of Kang Hae Jun. In the past, Jeong Jae and Seo Hyeon first met through a matchmaking arrangement. Jeong Jae, a single father raising his daughter Yoon Ju Won, felt a natural connection with Seo Hyeon, who was also raising her son Hae Jun alone. However, Seo Hyeon abruptly left for Seoul after receiving a mysterious call and borrowed money from Jeong Jae before vanishing, leaving her son behind. From that moment, Jeong Jae began raising Hae Jun as if he were his own son.

For a decade, Seo Hyeon remained out of contact. Then, unexpectedly, she reappeared at Jeong Jae’s noodle shop and repaid her debt. When Jeong Jae pleaded with her to meet Hae Jun, she coldly refused, leaving deep emotional scars on Hae Jun and unresolved questions for Jung Jae.

In the newly released stills, Jeong Jae’s shocked expression reveals his surprise at meeting Seo Hyeon in such an unexpected place. Seo Hyeon’s expression is equally tense and the atmosphere between them is far from warm, sparking viewer anticipation.

With Hae Jun newly returned to Haedong City, the mystery of Seo Hyeon’s sudden reappearance deepens. Will Jeong Jae finally be able to reunite this mother and son, mending the heartache of their missed encounter a decade ago?
