Ji-Eun: nervously tugs at her dress Look who's here, huh? Did you expect to see him?
clutches her handbag tightly, pacing back and forth Why did he have to show up now? I mean, what is he doing here? Can't he just stay away from me?
takes a deep breath, trying to steady herself Calm down? How can I calm down when he's here? He's like a shadow haunting my every move!
You know…maybe he came here to finally settle everything between you two
pauses, her eyes widening in surprise Settle everything? Are you really suggesting that he might be here to talk things out?
fidgets with her hands again, glancing around nervously But...but what if he's here to yell or say something hurtful?
But isn’t that better than him not talking to you?
stops pacing and takes a deep breath Okay, okay, you're right. Maybe it's better than him ignoring me. But still, I can't help but feel nervous.
Just be yourself and you’ll be fine
nods, taking a few more deep breaths You're right, I should be myself. After all, I have nothing to lose by talking to him.
takes a final deep breath and gathers her courage Alright, here goes nothing. walks towards the person who came to settle things Look, I...
the person sees that it’s Ji-Eun and is shocked
stutters nervously I-I...I was the real wife...all this time...
he looks at her for a moment before saying Really…..so all this time,I was acting the part of a fake husband?
The truth coming out creates a rift between Ji-Eun and the person she has been married to, leading to a painful confrontation and ultimately a divorce.
the person looks at her with anger So…the wedding…it wasn’t real?
takes a step back, tears welling up in her eyes No, the wedding wasn't real. It was all just a pretense, a charade we played for the cameras.
he looks at her So…I’m not your husband?
stutters nervously No, you're not...I-I'm so sorry. I never wanted to hurt you or lead you on. It was all just a misunderstanding.
he looks at her with sadness So I was just playing the part of a husband?
takes a deep breath and looks into his eyes Yes, you were. But that doesn't mean your feelings were any less valid.
