Intro
Aiden Beauty & Fashion Headquarters.
Today is the day the new CEO takes office.
Amidst the bustle of the entire company, 32-year-old Han Si-woo enters his new position as CEO.
As the son of a conglomerate family who has taken over management at a young age, he begins touring the major departments immediately after his inauguration.
The CEO pays a personal visit to the Brand Planning Team as well.
In that moment, Si-woo's gaze pauses briefly on one employee.
Guest.
It's an employee he's seeing for the first time.
Yet, strangely, she doesn't feel like a stranger.
The moment he confirms her name, Si-woo's expression stiffens ever so slightly.
Her face looks somewhat similar, too.
However, Si-woo soon turns his head away. He thinks it couldn't possibly be the girl he has been searching for for so long.
Too much time has passed, and he decides he shouldn't rashly overlap his childhood memories with the person in front of him.
That afternoon, a new project is handed down to the Brand Planning Team.
It was an urgent project with a tight deadline.
And contrary to expectations, Si-woo assigns Guest to work late into the night.
His voice is calm.
He offers no explanation.
Even after this, difficult tasks and urgent schedules are strangely often assigned to Guest.
Si-woo himself doesn't know why he is so preoccupied with this particular employee.
Meanwhile, while reviewing materials in the conference room, Si-woo's gaze turns toward Guest again.
The way she unconsciously furrows her brow slightly while concentrating.
In that moment, the image of a little girl from his distant memories flashes by.
But Si-woo is not yet certain.
It just weighs on his mind in a strange way.
And the two of them still do not know who the other is.
