After hearing Jooeun's words, the hosts could sense something was not right.

Why would a CEO of an agency want to give a mere assistant a surprise? And what reason did she have to hold on to their family member, resulting in the police being contacted?

It was obvious, they were doing something dirty to control Cha Jooeun. After all, the hosts had been in the industry for a long time and had seen through a lot of things. When Cha Jooeun brought up her example, they could already tell that she was actually telling Yeji to hand over Minjung's grandfather.

This smart woman had used the gentlest method to force someone to do something they could not refuse.

"Of course, these were all rumors. Now that you've clarified it for us, we can focus on the next question. Cha Jooeun, you need to keep up with us. After a relatively serious question, here comes another relaxed one."

"Every time you say it's relaxed, it's not really relaxed." Jooeun joked.

The hosts chuckled, picked up the question board, and flipped it. It was a photo of Jooeun and Jeonghwan's Damiani commercial. "Regarding this 'back-view dream man', isn't it about time you give us an answer? All the beautiful girls in the studio have been waiting anxiously."

Jooeun covered her mouth shyly as she helplessly hesitated. "Errr..."

"Did you think you could avoid this question? Quick! Tell us who it is, let us see his face." the host encouraged cheekily, playing along with Jooeun.

Jooeun's head hurt a little. She then asked her fans softly. "What should I do? Do you guys really want to know?"

Her fans nodded their heads enthusiastically.

"OK!" Jooeun was finally ready to speak up. However, this one simple word made Kangjun's heart almost stop. Meanwhile, Jeonghwan's attention was focused on the conversation.

"I don't think it is right for me to reveal his name directly. How about this? I'll give him a phone call right now and we can ask him if he is willing to give us his name. What do you guys think? If he refuses, then you can't continue to make things difficult for me." Jooeun smiled as she pulled out her phone and waved it at the audience.

"OK." the fans replied in sync.

"So you are going to make the phone call live in the studio?" the host had never seen such a direct model. She faced their question head-on and did not try to hide at all.

"Yes. Otherwise, I think I'm going to have dreams about my fans chasing me to death. I'm a little scared!" After speaking, Jooeun searched for the number she prepared earlier and made a phone call in front of everyone.

On the other side of the phone, Jeonghwan was sitting in his car listening to the live broadcast. Seeing Jooeun's name pop up on the caller ID, he deepened his voice and tried his best to make his voice different from the voice he used when Jooeun called him at DDP.

"Hello?" His voice was extremely deep and mellow, making him sound extra charming and attractive.

The studio erupted in a high-pitch scream. Jooeun placed her finger to her lips, gesturing them to hush, before asking.

"This is Cha Jooeun. You see, after the commercial, we filmed together, the entire nation has been curious as to who you are. Are you willing to tell everyone your real identity?"

On the other side of the phone, Jeonghwan was silent for a moment before asking back. "Do you want others to know who I am?"

With this question, the studio once again erupted in a high-pitch scream. His tone was too ambiguous.

"Yes, I do. I don't want your fans to chase me to death." Jooeun replied calmly. In actual fact, she did not tell Jeonghwan about this beforehand because she wanted to give him the final decision-making right. If he decided to reveal everything, she would not avoid telling the truth.

"Really?"

"You two better stop with your ambiguous conversation and get to the point. Quickly decide whether you will make a revelation or not." the host cut off their conversation, they were teasing everyone too much.

Jooeun thought Jeonghwan wanted to reveal everything. But he did not respond the way she expected.

"I've decided not to reveal my identity." Jeonghwan responded straightforwardly. "I'm sorry, I don't want my private life to be affected."

Although he wanted badly to tell everyone he was Cha Jooeun's husband and the CEO of GK when actually given the option, his heart ached for Jooeun. She had put in so much effort up to this point. He knew this wasn't what she truly wanted deep down. She wanted to be on the same level as him and shine in splendor!

Hearing his response, not only did the fans not feel disappointed, they even found themselves fantasizing about him even more.

"Jooeun and I simply collaborated for this one commercial. I am already married. I hope everyone can stop making things difficult for Jooeun."

Since Jeonghwan already gave his response, the hosts did not continue to pressure them. They asked him for one simple request. "Can you tell us what you think of Cha Jooeun? Does she have any habits or hobbies that are out of the ordinary?"

Jooeun maintained her smile. However, she was a little nervous after hearing the host ask Jeonghwan this question.

"She is very honest. As for habits and hobbies, I can't say anything, or else I might get beaten later!"

The audience broke out in laughter as they understood the reason why he did not want to reveal anything. Eventually, Jooeun hung up the phone before the host requested. "Use one phrase to explain the relationship between you and the 'back-view dream man'."

"A lifelong confidant."

Jooeun revealed one form of her and Jeonghwan's relationship. There was no one else in this world that understood her more and loved her more.

"Great. Although we did not find out the true identity of the 'back-view dream man', at least everyone had the opportunity to listen to his attractive voice. I hope everyone can respect his decision. Here, I have a piece of great news to announce to everyone. Damiani's completed commercial will be officially released next Monday. We will all get the chance to savor this attractive back once again."

The entire interview ran for exactly 45 minutes. Apart from a few intense questions, the hosts also asked Jooeun about her life and aspirations. As usual, she dealt with these questions well, so she left everyone with a really good impression. By the time the program wrapped up, the time was already 10 PM.

Under Kangjun's protection, Jooeun was ready to leave the studio. At this time, one of the hosts called out to her to say a few words. "I've seen many relatives of assistants being 'accidentally' taken before, but I've never seen anyone flip the situation around and force for their return like you did. Although you've managed to retrieve your old man, your road ahead will be more and more difficult."

"I'm aware." Jooeun knew what was going on.

"It's rare to see someone as calm as you." After speaking, the host pulled a business card from his pocket and handed it to Jooeun. "What you need now is an international platform. I am familiar with a few international designers. If you want to appear on the international stage, give me a call."

Jooeun was well aware that after she had slapped Ahn Hani and used Jeonghwan's name, although she had remedied the situation in time, Yeji would still use this incident to shake up a storm. But since she was brave enough to challenge Yeji in public, there was nothing else she was afraid of!
