Imperfect Season

After attending her ex-husband’s wedding, Su-yeon stops by a hotel bar and meets a stranger. She can’t stop looking at him, and eventually, their eyes meet… “Why are you staring?” “Because you’re handsome.” “That’s a polite way of saying you want to sleep with me.” Seung-jo’s boldness flusters Su-yeon, but she can’t deny that she’s attracted to this man she just met. “Have you ever slept with a handsome man?” “…” “If you’re curious, come upstairs.” Is it okay to do this with a stranger? After thinking it over, Su-yeon decides to follow her heart, but their complicated connection begins to take an unexpected turn… *** “Didn’t we say we’d date if we saw each other again?” “Well…” “Let’s do it all—eat, grab coffee, and sleep together.” “No, I…” He suddenly leaned in. Su-yeon stopped talking and quickly reached back to grab the dresser. “You what?” He stepped closer, closing the distance between them. “I mean, I didn’t expect to run into you like this. Especially not as Professor Song’s son. You’re always welcome as a client, but anything more than that…” His gaze was so intense that she stopped talking mid-sentence. “Why did you stop talking?” He seemed to be talking to himself, but Su-yeon answered quickly. “I think it’ll be difficult. I’m sorry.” “I see.” Seung-jo nodded as if he understood, and the smile left his face. “Let’s have dinner next time.” “What?” They were right back where they started. Su-yeon looked blank, unable to hide how confused she was. Seung-jo leaned down with a laugh and pulled her forward by the hand. “Think about what you’ll ‘accidentally’ leave behind next time. And think about what you want to eat.” He pressed her phone into her hand, then gripped her wrist firmly and pulled her close. Su-yeon was pulled right in front of him. Seung-jo leaned his head down and gently bit her neck. “Ah.” Startled, Su-yeon quickly covered her neck with her hand. He looked into her eyes and chuckled. “Marking my territory.” “Excuse me?” “From now on, you only see me, Yoo Su-yeon. It’ll be trouble if you meet other guys.”
