At the park's,
Mr. Park, Mrs. Park, and Jimin sit at the jewelry shopkeeper's entrance. The shopkeeper begins to sympathize, "Such a shame about your son's wedding, eh? It was ruined."
Jimin's eyes flash with anger, and he almost rises, but Mrs. Park's gentle grip on his hand restrains him. He remains silent.
Undeterred, the shopkeeper continues, "One phone call would've kept the baraat from leaving. Mr. Park could've settled the matter with a simple payment."
The trio's expressions darken, their anger simmering. Mrs. Park releases Jimin's hand, her own clenched in frustration.
Jimin stands up, his eyes locked on the shopkeeper.
"Whatever happened, happened. Today's a new day. If you give me half the money, I'll talk to that family myself."
Mr. Park beams with pride at his son, while Mrs. Park's expression remains partially upset.
The shopkeeper flustered, "No, no, don't worry..."
Mr. Park intervenes, "Jimin, go get some medicine."
Before leaving, Jimin checks the balance and smirks. "Seems like in your 'round, round talks,' you accidentally added another round thing to the balance."
With a wink, Jimin walks away, leaving the shopkeeper flustered.

At the Park's residence, Aunt Jinkyong settles in to watch TV, but her relaxation is short-lived. A phone call from one of her gossipy friends interrupts her evening.
"Have you heard about Jimin?" her friend asks, sparking Aunt Jinkyong's curiosity.
Aunt Jinkyong listens, her expression transforming from intrigue to shock. She hastily hangs up and turns on the TV to distract herself.
Instead, she's met with a sensationalized talk show. The host boasts about a revolutionary approach to finding love, and Aunt Jinkyong's eyes widen as the screen displays footage of Jimin and Jungkook's encounter.
"...the unlikely pairing that has everyone talking," the host says, "Jimin, the young man who unwittingly captured the heart of Jeon Jungkook, the billionaire mogul."
Aunt Jinkyong's jaw drops.
Seokjin enters the room, drawn in by the commotion. "What's wrong?" he asks, eyes fixed on the TV.
Aunt Jinkyong's voice trembles. "Call your father immediately."

Jimin walks through the town, medicine in hand, oblivious to the whispers surrounding him. People's curious glances make him self-conscious, and he instinctively touches his face.
As he passes an electronics shop, his eyes are drawn to the TVs displayed in the window. The footage of him and Jungkook plays on every screen.
Jimin's feet seem rooted to the spot as he watches, reliving the moments. The commentators' harsh words cut deep: "No shame," "Scandalous," and "Unacceptable."
Their judgmental tone pierces Jimin's heart. He turns away, tears streaming down his face. The world around him blurs as he struggles to process the public's reaction.
Jimin stands frozen, his face a picture of brokenness and fear. Tears continue to stream down his cheeks as he struggles to come to terms with the public's reaction.
Just then, Mrs. Park appears, concern etched on her face. She rushes to Jimin's side, enveloping him in a warm embrace.

Meanwhile, at the office,
Jungkook emerges from the office, his expression unreadable. A staff member approaches him, holding out a mobile phone.
"Sir, the clipping is out on the channel," the staff member says, his eyes fixed on the screen.
Jungkook's gaze drops to the phone, his eyes scanning the footage. A hint of satisfaction flickers across his face before he regains his composure.
Jungkook's eyes glaze over, lost in thought, as a flashback hits him - Jimin's words echo in his mind: "You may be super rich, but you're not bigger than God... Whatever you are, it's because of Him."

A staff member interrupts his reverie, "Sir, we didn't need to pay that idiot. Our lawyers would've handled it."
Jungkook's expression darkens. "No one dares to insult me," he says, his voice low and menacing. "And if anyone does, they will face the consequences."
The scene shifts to Jimin, his voice trembling. "Mumma, I was trying to—"
Mrs. Park firmly silences him, her expression resolute. She swiftly ushers Jimin away.
Just then, menacing goons enter, their presence ominous, casting a shadow over the Park's fragile sanctuary.
