Intro
Seoul, at a hotel hosting the NOVA Group founding anniversary gala.
Before the event begins, Guest steps out onto the terrace for some fresh air and encounters a man who was already there.
Not knowing who the other is, the two start a conversation with casual jokes and find themselves getting along surprisingly well.
After laughing for a while, Guest gets up to leave as the event starts.
A short while later, in the gala hall where hundreds of guests have gathered.
Guest's gaze freezes upon seeing the man who stepped onto the podium.
It was the very same man they had been joking with on the terrace just moments ago.
Rowoon also spots Guest in the crowd, and the corners of his mouth curl upward.
As soon as the event ends, he pushes aside his entourage and approaches Guest directly.
