"Joy, do you like food better or me better?" Sungjae suddenly asks while looking at Joy who is still eating deliciously. He stops eating as his stomach getting full.

"Why suddenly (asking that)?" Joy is puzzled.

"For someone who claims to be my fan, you seem to enjoy the food more than hanging out with me," Sungjae answers.

"They're different. You can't compare food with people." Joy replies then continue eating.  It's embarrassing to say she likes to hang out with Sungjae more. What if he teases her because of it? But then, she can't deny that fact. Being Sungjae's tour guide is a rare experience and she comes to like him more after spending time with him.

"Can you look somewhere else?" Joy requests as she can sense Sungjae keeps looking at her.

"Why? I like seeing you eating."

"You make me nervous. I feel like I'm doing something interesting when I'm only eating," Joy reasoning. Joy continues to eat again, while Sungjae still looks at her, teasing her at the same time. He's curious about what will happen if he keeps looking at her.

Joy keeps looking at the bowl. Eating uncomfortably. Then, she finally puts down her cutleries. She can't continue eating while her body getting warmer because of embarrassment.
"Let's go then," Joy says to Sungjae. Sungjae chuckles seeing her.

"Okay, okay. I'll stop. Finish your food and I'll finish mine."

---------------------------------

The next destination is Victoria Market. A place to buy goods. They go around the whole market, from seafood, meat, fruit and vegetables to souvenirs. Sungjae buys some souvenirs for his members, managers and Peniel. Finishing that, Sungjae is shocked to know that Joy invites him to eat Borek.

"Joy, I think I need a break from eating," Sungjae says after he eats his borek. His stomach is totally full now.

"Already? I thought your stomach capacity is bigger than mine."Joy frowns.

"No. I give up. I can't eat anymore. Not for the next 3 hours." Sungjae is in a food coma. He's amazed to see Joy is still going to eat more after eating so much with him. "How can you eat so much? Did you starve yourself for days?!" Sungjae asks in disbelief.

"Nope. We had dinner together yesterday, remember? You should be the one who eats more. Don't Koreans tend to eat in big portions?" Joy asks. She has seen in Korean shows that Koreans eat a lot, to her surprise Sungjae eating less than her.

"We do, but not continuously like this," Sungjae protests.

"Where should we go now, then? The itinerary is going to another restaurant, but you refuse it." Joy asks.

Sungjae gapes knowing he would end up eating for another round if he didn't ask her to stop. He didn't realise the eating part would be this much when he read the itinerary yesterday.

"How about your uni? Anything interesting?" Sungjae suggests an idea for their destination.

"Good idea. And oh, we can visit another uni too. They have old buildings, so you can take beautiful pictures there."

Joy shows RMIT university for a while before they go to Melbourne University. They walk around and take pictures for 2 hours. Joy is happy to have her picture taken by Sungjae as he knows the right angle. She never gets to take good photos because her family are bad at it. She doesn't forget to take pictures for Sungjae so he can keep them as memories.

When it's Joy's turn to take pictures for Sungjae, she sees 2 girls whispering to each other while looking at Sungjae. They then get closer to Sungjae and ask if he's Sungjae.
