Han’s apology shakes Jul, who grapples with trust and Chidi’s Calabar offer. Tola’s past reveals her strength, urging Jul to prioritize herself. Eun-ji’s ex exposes parallels with Han, as Madam Choi’s threat looms, pushing Jul and Han toward a fragile crossroads.

Jul didn’t take the 4am flight. She stayed, not because it was easy, but because silence wasn’t closure. Wrapped in soft sheets, she faced the man who never said enough. Han opened up for the first time—his name, his past, his fear of hurting her. But Jul wanted more than confessions. She wanted clarity. When the world buzzed with distractions, she asked the only question that mattered. No more half-love. No more hiding.

He sat in the dark, phone untouched, thoughts loud. She stepped out quietly, wrapped in that wine-red shirt. When their eyes met, she didn’t speak. She undressed. In front of him. Slow. Certain. And when she was done, she left her clothes on the floor… …walked back into the room, naked. Then whispered over her shoulder— "I have a flight at 4 a.m."

Jul hadn’t heard from Han in three days. She told herself she didn’t care — until her best friend mentioned seeing him with someone else. So she showed up. No anger. Just presence. Now they sit across from each other — same room, different silences. “Mu-seo-wo,” he says. “I’m scared.” She flinches. Because she is too. He speaks in Korean. She asks what it means. This isn’t a fight. But it’s not quite peace either. Just the truth… finally starting to surface.
