Je-hyun didn’t immediately find a place to stay in Korea. Planning to stay for a few years, he hoped Min Tae-hee could choose a house for him. Being a successful interior designer, it would be even better if Min Tae-hee decorated the interior. So, instead of buying a house, he decided to stay in a special room at a well-located business hotel for convenient transportation. Looking at Namsan Tower locked under the clear sky, Je-hyun made a second call to Tae-hee.
However, this time too, Tae-hee didn’t answer the phone. With a bitter smile, Je-hyun muttered softly, “She seems to hate me quite a bit.” Tae-hee knew it was him calling and deliberately chose not to answer. Even during financial difficulties, they synchronized their tutoring jobs, got matching couple phones, and matched the last digits of their numbers to the date they started dating. He vividly remembered how sorry and happy Tae-hee was back then. Therefore, he couldn’t forget this number. Although not receiving the call was disappointing, it was also a relief in a way. Blaming and hating himself meant he hadn’t been forgotten all these years.
Seven years ago, Tae-hee had coolly said she wouldn’t wait, but that wasn’t her true feelings. She hadn’t answered his calls, hadn’t dated anyone, and hadn’t engaged in a relationship. He still thought of Tae-hee. She was a difficult woman, but she had a sense of loyalty and straightforward charm. Je-hyun missed her more and wanted to see her soon.
In fact, Je-hyun had been popular with girls since childhood. Despite a poor household, he always ranked first in class, was tall and handsome, and had a flawless personality. Even when he returned after completing military service, he was the center of attention for all the girls. Min Tae-hee was initially indifferent but eventually grew fond of him. So, he was even more curious.
At that time, being the only one without financial stability and social status, he wondered how Tae-hee would react. If it were other girls, they might have broken up despite having a boyfriend and come to him. But Tae-hee, he wasn’t sure. Despite clearly remembering that she couldn’t forget him, it didn’t seem easy for her.
Je-hyun chuckled, “At first, she’ll probably bounce me away coldly. Because she’s Min Tae-hee.” It made sense. His past self had hurt Tae-hee, and seven years had passed. Or rather, Je-hyun wished Tae-hee would reject him as she pleased and make him suffer more. It would be an expression of resentment due to the hurt, and he needed to properly release those emotions for our new beginning to go smoothly. He knew what he had done wrong and how late he was.
As promised, he returned, and Tae-hee was still waiting for him. That was enough. Although the reunion after seven years might not be easy, eventually, we would fall in love again. Then, Je-hyun suddenly became curious about something else.
In fact, Jehyun has been popular among girls since childhood.
Despite coming from a poor family, he never missed being at the top. Tall, well-built, good-looking, and flawless in personality.
Even after completing military service, when he returned to school, he was the center of attention for all the girls.
Min Tae-hee, at first, was indifferent to him, but eventually, she grew to like him.
So, he became even more curious.
At that time, with the only economic ability and social status, he wondered how Min Tae-hee would react. If it were other girls, even if they had a boyfriend, they would break up and come to him, self-assured.
But with Min Tae-hee, he wasn’t sure. Despite clearly not being able to forget him, it didn’t seem easy for her.
Then, Jehyun smirked, “At first, she’ll probably brush me off coldly. That’s how Min Tae-hee is.” It made sense.
His past self had hurt Tae-hee, and seven years had passed. No, Jehyun even wished that Tae-hee would reject him while bouncing back freely.
It would be an expression of resentment due to the hurt, and he needed to properly release those emotions for our new beginning to go smoothly. He knew what he had done wrong, and he knew it was too late.
As promised, he returned, and Tae-hee was still waiting for him. That was the plan. The reunion, like seven years ago, might not be easy, but eventually, we would fall in love again.
Then, Jehyun suddenly became curious about something else.
“What if I’m still in the position of a poor college student? Would you still love me?” Looking at himself, 34 years old and still penniless, Jehyun wondered how Min Tae-hee would react.
Also, what kind of reaction would Min Tae-hee, who had discovered the perfectly successful version of himself at the end of our new beginning, show? Maybe, for Tae-hee, that would be an easier approach.
Tae-hee despised chaebol men, had a strong sense of pride and independence. Jehyun quickly understood her personality and had, in a way, twisted his mind back then.
Unlike other men who bragged about money, he triggered sympathy, gaining the honor of becoming Min Tae-hee’s lover.
