When Na-mi uses a friend’s phone to call, Oh Jun-Yeong (Im Si-Wan) uses a fake voice app to speak so his voice won’t be recognized, instructing her to pick up her phone at a repair shop.

Jun-Yeong slowly invades into Na-Mi’s personal life, causing her father to be suspicious of him. Na-Mi expresses curiosity about Jun-Yeong as they seem to have a lot in common.
