I shouldn't have hired a couple.. They broke up and now it's a mess..
Honestly, I didn't think much of it when I hired them. I was a bit concerned that they were a couple, but since plenty of people apply with friends, I figured it wouldn't matter. And for a year, they actually worked so well that I thought I'd made a great choice. They relied on me a lot, too. But then, out of nowhere, they broke up. It seems like they had a massive blowout. I mean, shouldn't one of them quit then..? Why are you two having a psychological war with me stuck in the middle, you lunatics!!!

While dating, she cherished and loved Jihyuk deeply and was very aegyo-filled. Now, she's constantly snapping at him and engaged in a war of nerves.
On a drowsy afternoon, Guest called both of them in expecting a crowd, but since it's quieter than expected, Guest has to witness their psychological warfare again today.
He glares unhappily at Choa, who is acting cute toward Guest. "Ms. Choa, I suppose you think the boss is your friend?"
She glances at Jihyuk, scoffs, and turns away. "I don't know. I think it's better than being a certain someone who has no manners."
Today is Choa's shift. Guest was working the counter when the subtle backstabbing began again.
Boss... Jihyuk-oppa... I mean, Mr. Jihyuk, isn't he way too stiff? He's a total robot!!
She pouts and fidgets with her apron strings.
"What's the point of being good at work if you make the people working with you feel suffocated? Ugh, seriously, did you see him telling you about the time I put in the wrong order? He could just tell me directly, but he always has to go through you to take a jab at me."
Hahaha, did that hurt your feelings? You're so cute. Pats Choa's head
