00:00BMW entered Yeonju's life with a hidden agenda, to steal her recipes, bring them to his family's
00:06restaurant, and eventually acquire and shut down her business. But as time passed, his cold
00:12intentions began to falter in the face of Yeonju's sincerity. Slowly, he changed. He fell in love
00:19with her, deeply and honestly, torn between his growing feelings and the pressure from his
00:25manipulative family, particularly his mother and brother, and his own unresolved desire to return
00:32to Han Zhang. When Yonghai steals Yeonju's precious recipe book, BMW fails to act in time, caught in a
00:39moment of weakness. The recipes are then used at Mato, his family's restaurant, which earns the
00:45prestigious diamond three stars, but it comes at a devastating cost, the trust and love between him
00:52and Yeonju. Though remorseful, BMW struggles to confess the full truth. Every time he looks into
01:00her trusting eyes, guilt and love overwhelm him. He tries again and again to come clean, but the words
01:07never come out, until finally, he decides to tell her everything. Just as he begins, CN Woo interrupts
01:15them, driven by jealousy, resentment, and a hunger for control over the family empire. He exposes
01:22BM Woo's original scheme to deceive Yeonju. Shocked and heartbroken, Yeonju turns to BM Woo for
01:29confirmation. He doesn't deny it, he admits that he once intended to betray her, but insists that
01:36everything has changed. However, the damage is done. Holding back tears, Yeonju asks him to leave.
01:44BM Woo, devastated, tries to explain, but it's already too late. As he walks away,
01:51guilt and sorrow written across his face, CN Woo lingers for a moment, now questioning his own
01:57actions. In the silence that follows, Yeonju collapses to the floor, finally allowing herself
02:04to cry. The episode closes with her sobs echoing softly, the screen fading to black as the music
02:11carries the heartbreak of what could have been. In episode 9, after BM Woo leaves Yeonju heartbroken,
02:18she tries to remain strong and stand her ground, but the emotional weight is too much to bear.
02:25Struggling with the pain of betrayal, she announces that she will be taking a break and
02:30temporarily closing the restaurant. Without telling anyone where she's going, Yeonju disappears from
02:37their lives, seeking refuge in the quiet embrace of her adoptive aunt, a monk at the same monastery
02:44they had once visited together. There, surrounded by stillness and simplicity, she begins to reflect
02:51on her life, her choices, and the heartbreak of having her love betrayed by the one man she truly trusted.
02:59In her aunt's comforting presence, Yeonju finally lets herself grieve.
03:04Her aunt gently reminds her that despite everything, the love in BM Woo's eyes was real, and that perhaps,
03:11even broken trust deserves a second chance when love is still alive. Meanwhile, Myung Sook,
03:18furious at BM Woo's betrayal, confronts him. He quietly accepts the blame, admitting he was raised to value
03:26business over emotions and never truly understood love. He confesses that meeting Yeonju changed him,
03:32and losing her made him realize how little he knew about what truly matters. BM Woo informs Myung Sook
03:39that Yeonju's restaurant is at risk, as his ruthless mother has now set her sights on shutting it down
03:45completely. He reveals that his mother has made it clear she won't allow Yeonju to return to the
03:52dining world. Determined to protect her, BM Woo makes a choice. He decides to stand up to his mother for the
03:59first time, willing to risk everything to shield Yeonju from further harm. Meanwhile, a desperate BM Woo
04:06searches for Yeonju everywhere but fails to find her. Though he longs to see her, he also keeps his
04:13distance, believing it's the only way to protect her from his mother's wrath. The separation weighs heavily
04:19on him. He cries, misses her deeply, and lives with constant regret. Then, after what feels like an
04:27eternity, fate brings them face to face again, at a quiet crossroads, where time seems to stop.
