"Jungkook-ah, I have a big news for you!"
"What? Mom accepted that I'm gay?"

Jungkook chuckles with his dad. Senior Jeon has come to Jungkook's office today. He was told that his wife, and his only son's mom is setting him up on blind dates yet again.

This game of blind dates was stopped for a few months, but now she's at it again. "Do you want your mom to stop imagining you with girls?"

Jungkook's eyes brightens. "Of course Yes!"
His dad chuckles. "Get married Jungkook-ah..."

"What!? How!?-- I mean, with whom dad? I'm so busy to even think about someone!"
"Here I thought you really have someone in your life and are just hiding it from your mom's wrath!"

Jungkook chuckles, "No, that's not it. If I had a boyfriend, atleast you will know dad."
"That's my son!" Mr. Jeon winks at him.

"Do you have any friend with whom you can atleast pretend to be in a relationship?"
"No, and I wouldn't do that even if I had a friend like that! C'mon dad, I'm not a loser who needs to pretend!" Jungkook puffs his chest out.

Mr. Jeon snorts at him. "Okay then! What if I have a guy in my eye?"
"So you were-- That's why this surprise quiz? You are also trying to set me up on blind dates!?"

"So your mom can do it, but I'm not allowed?"
"Well played. Who is it then? And how do you know him?"
"You have been working with his father on your Indian Client."

"Mr. Kang has a son?"
"Not that one."
"Mr. Park then?"
"Bingo! Mr. Park has a son."

"So that was the reason..." Jungkook mumbles.
"What?" His dad inquires.
"I caught Mr. Park looking at me with a strange smile a lot of times."
"Since when does he have eyes on you?"

Jungkook chuckles. "I noticed it from last year after I came back from Jin Hyung's wedding. The shift was so evident that I found it weird in the beginning. One day, he even asked me if I have a girlfriend. And as usual I said, I'm looking for a boyfriend instead."

Mr. Jeon chuckles. Him & Mr. Park have been friends for last 6-7 years, their friendship began with the business only.

Jeon Corporation is a big name when it comes to furniture. The Indian clients they are working with is giving them a tender for supplying Furniture to a 13 storey apartment block.

If Jeon Corporation officially goes into a venture with Park INN, they will get the contract for furniture & fittings of all the houses that they build.

'That'll be beneficial to both of our businesses, and it will help Jungkook as well.' Mr. Jeon thinks.

"Park showed me his son's dance choreography video when we were on a monthly company outing. I found him likeable. He will look just perfect beside you."

"But Dad... Don't you think it's too early?"
"Don't stress about it son. Just meet him first, if you think you can take things to another level, then only say yes to the marriage."
"In just one date?"

"Yeah... that too over a meal at their home. He wanted you to meet his son in their place only. He's kinda conservative"
"Oh- Okay-- well, it's-- have you said yes for the meal?"

"Not yet."
"Then can I have some time to think about it?"
"For sure, just keep in mind, this marriage will also benefit our business."

"C'mon dad, you can benefit from me alone, no need to include my future husband in that!"
"Oh- my heart! I'm impressed with my own son!"
