Here’s the English translation of the provided Korean paragraph:
Even if Heontae Lee supports him, Jaeho Lee has neither a father to rely on nor maternal relatives to trust. His position as the heir could be usurped at any time.
If he doesn’t have support internally, he must pull it in from outside.
Even disregarding her own feelings for him, there seemed to be countless reasons why Jaeho Lee needed a marriage of convenience. Her heart was racing.
“So, what about his relationships with women?”
“Ah.”
“What? Does he have a lot of women?”
Well, with his looks, wealth, and personality, it would be more surprising if he didn’t have women around him. It made sense, yet it also made her uncomfortable.
Jaeho Lee was always a kind man on set. He was polite to all staff, considerate to female actresses, and respectful to directors and writers. Any woman who worked with him even once couldn’t help but fall for him. She was no different.
‘But I’m not like those foolish women.’
Oh Chaewon was cautious. She knew many actresses who mistook his manners for romantic interest, got their hopes up, and ended up hurt and rejected. He was not a man to be won over by such approaches. Jaeho Lee was kind to everyone but never let anyone into his personal space.
He maintained relationships only to the extent he had drawn the line. Therefore, Oh Chaewon never crossed that line with him, which allowed them to remain as fairly close colleagues.
If anyone asked Jaeho Lee who his closest female actress was, he would undoubtedly mention Oh Chaewon without hesitation. She had made sure of that with her constant efforts during their last shoot.
“Jaeho Lee didn’t have any women. He’s very clean in that regard. But recently, it seems like there is someone. There have been a few suspicious situations.”
“What are they?”
“This part needs a bit more investigation. For now, it seems he is enjoying a secret rendezvous with a woman… The team I sent to investigate should be returning soon.”
Team Leader Kim was cautious with his words. Oh Chaewon slightly raised her eyebrows but soon nodded in understanding.
“Alright. I’ll wait until you have concrete information.”
She straightened her curly hair with her fingers and smiled.
“I need to know for sure, to cut it off for sure.”
“Yes. I’ll contact you soon.”
“Thank you for your work.”
Why did I come here?
She felt a bit embarrassed about her eagerness to come when called, like a tail-wagging puppy. No, actually, the dog Happy she had as a child never came when called. So maybe she was even worse than a dog.
Jaeho sat down next to Dajeong, placing a glass of water beside her.
“You’re good.”
“…”
“Did you decide to listen well?”
“I just wanted to talk a little and then go back.”
“It must be tiring to keep coming and going.”
Jaeho teased her with a playful smile, and Dajeong finally let out a small chuckle. She felt ridiculous, having rushed over because she was excited by his message and wanting to be with him, only to be making obvious excuses.
“Yeah. I came because I wanted to see you.”
“Wow.”
Jaeho moved an inch closer.
“Almost completely fallen for me, Yoon Dajeong.”
She was wrong. She had fallen for him from their very first meeting, or to be more honest, long before meeting him at this beach. She had been barely holding herself back from falling.
As his self-assured smile approached her defenselessly, her heart raced uncontrollably. It’s true they had grown much closer through kisses, but that didn’t mean she was used to all this with just one kiss. Dajeong put some distance between them.
Regardless of the space she put between them, Jaeho’s long arms wrapped around her shoulders, pulling her into an embrace. Dajeong pressed her lips tightly together, not wanting to reveal how even the smallest action made her heart flutter. She clenched her fists tightly.
Here’s the English translation of the provided Korean paragraph:
Before them, the black sea stretched out. Jaeho broke the silence.
“I’ve been waiting a lot.”
“Oh, that. I couldn’t help it. Kyungjun opened another can of beer just then…”
“Before that too. I’ve been waiting a lot. For moments like these.”
Sometimes when he said something that left her at a loss for words, she didn’t know how to respond. Jaeho had a habit of talking about things that had happened in just a few days as if they were distant memories. Dajeong just smiled faintly.
“I want to hear it. You were always so guarded, but suddenly you responded to my kiss.”
“!”
“I’m curious about your unexpectedly proactive attitude.”
What should she say?
She couldn’t tell him she had liked him since his first work, that she had followed him wherever time allowed.
She couldn’t say she had thousands of pictures of him saved on her external hard drive, along with his photo shoots, articles, and behind-the-scenes shots. She should have spoken earlier.
At their first meeting, Dajeong had clearly drawn a line, stating she didn’t like Jaeho Lee.
She intended to confess someday, but not now.
“That… I decided to admit it.”
“What?”
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him
Short intro:

She fears nothing in heaven or earth, except for him getting close to her.
*
At first he thought she was just using the trick of feigning indifference to attract his attention. Later, he learned that she truly despised him.
This dealt a heavy blow to Jiang Mingyue, and he vowed to make her, like everyone else, fall at his feet in worship!
