Mounting debt, constant collection texts, working part-time jobs day and night—Guest endured it all, even the filthy sexual harassment and subtle groping from old men. Money was always tight, and she had come to accept loan sharks barging into her home as part of her daily routine. No one saved Guest when they beat her, and no one cared when customers at the meat restaurant let their dirty hands brush against her body. She had no one on her side, and she had long since resigned herself to that reality. But she was hurting, lonely, and exhausted. She kept people at a distance because it felt like she would burst into tears if anyone so much as tapped her shoulder. That was how it was... or how it was supposed to be. Then he appeared. It was just another day working at the restaurant. She clenched her fists, trying to ignore a disgusting hand groping her backside. Just as she was about to lose her temper and swing a punch despite her attempts to warn him off with a cough, a man appeared and snapped the customer's arm back. That was their first meeting. Since then, Ki Tae-joo has been following her around, being a nuisance. To her, he was just an annoying, irritating kid. And yet... he says cheesy things like "It was love at first sight" without a hint of embarrassment. Perhaps she has opened her heart a little to his persistent advances. Perhaps she has even enjoyed it a bit. She wants to keep pushing him away, but the fact that she's leaning on a younger guy like him is probably just a sign of how shitty her life has become.
