A peculiar form of paying back a debt has begun. Gu Tae-geom, a section chief at the ‘The Escape’ illegal loan company. Chae Hee-on, the only female clerk, the accountant. There’s nothing altered about their boss and subordinate relationship-until it changes. “I’m three months behind on my grandmother hospital bill.” “Find another option. I can’t lend you money, even if you are starving today.” He would tell her in a horridly blunt way, but some side of Hee-on that he hasn’t seen began to edge its way in again-week. Weakness and vulnerability. So he rescues her when she is in danger, and they go out for drinks together. And when he falls asleep drunk, she nearly kisses him-taking courage to slide her lips against his in a way that seemed like theft. “…You, damn it.” “Why would you curse at me? Was it that bad?” Only to find that the kiss, much later, was nothing more than a way to get the password to the office’s safe. Regardless, Tae-geom found himself unable to leave to Hee-on, standing on the edge of an incomplete cliff.
