Joon Jae looks at Soo Kyung who has fallen asleep, wistfully caressing her face. His wife fell asleep after tired of crying. Likewise with him, for the first time in his life. He cries in front of the woman, the woman he loves. Joon Jae still remembers Soo Kyung's astonished face when she started crying in front of him.

God, forgive me .. I have broken my promise to You, which I have done in front of You on my wedding day. That I won't make her cry, won't hurt her. But I cruelly made her cry, made her hurt so deeply. Please give me your forgiveness, God.

Joon Jae recalls what just happened. What he had been hiding for these two years, he finally spilled. And Joon Jae finally finds out the fact that he has been reluctant to look for. That he was in vain jealous of a person whose existence no longer even existed. He is jealous of the dead person.

Flash back.

Soo Kyung continues to struggle in Joon Jae's arms, trying to break Joon Jae's hug which is getting tighter. Joon Jae can only say this repeatedly "I'm sorry ...".

Who knows how many times Joon Jae has said the same thing. Joon Jae can feel his wife's body shaking from her tears. Of course this makes Joon Jae even more hurt. He don't know how many tears Soo Kyung has shed because of him.

Joon Jae finally releases his embrace after feeling that his wife has calmed down. He wiped the trail of tears on his wife's face. Joon Jae finally cried, right in front of him.

"I'm tired .. I'm really tired of everything that's happened so far. I love you .. love you so much ... But you destroy me so much. You changed, I don't know what my biggest mistake was for you. Until you did all this Oppa ! ".

"I'm sorry .. I'm sorry ..".

"What will I get if I forgive you? You will repeat it again? Hurting me again?".

Joon Jae dares to look Soo Kyung straight in the eye. Maybe it's time he was honest about everything. About why he did such painful things to Soo Kyung all this time.

"You know, before you, I loved a woman. We met in German, her name is Nara. I thought about marrying her, I really love her. But I saw her sleeping with my friend. From then on I began to not believe in love." . Joon Jae pauses and continues his story.

"Then you came, I thought maybe I should try again to believe in love. Until our wedding night, In your sleep without realising you mentioned Jung Woo's name. Not only once, maybe you don't even realize you often say his name in the middle of your sleep".

Hearing Joon Jae's explanation, Soo Kyung is shocked. She shook her head while covering her mouth with both hands. Joon Jae also said that he had received an envelope containing a photo of him and Jung Woo along with a love letter that Jung Woo wrote to her.
