## Summary

Heeyeon Shin catches Seojun as he emerges from the restroom, persuading him to take a selfie with her. They take the photo in front of a mirror and Heeyeon uploads the image to her Nstagram account. In her room, Jugyeong sees the recently posted picture and becomes worried. Anxiously, she texts Seojun to check if he is with friends. As Seojun responds, Heeyeon teases him for being too distracted by his phone and urges him to put it down. He concedes, deciding to join the others in drinking. Inebriated after two glasses of beer, Seojun removes his jewelry and lies down to take a nap.

The next morning, Seojun wakes up at home with a hangover. As he drinks fluids, Gowoon chastises him for drinking despite his low alcohol tolerance. Seojun checks his phone and discovers a drunken text he sent to Jugyeong. Appalled by his own behavior, he quickly calls her to apologize. Jugyeong reassures him that it is fine, telling him to focus on recovering before his photoshoot. As they hang up, Seojun wonders if Jugyeong is pretending to be okay. Shaking off these uneasy feelings, he begins to change his clothes. He peers at his own reflection in a mirror and suddenly notices that he is not wearing the earrings Jugyeong once gifted him. He frantically searches through his room to no avail. Remembering that he removed them before falling asleep the night before, he messages his friends asking if they have his jewelry. Heeyeon claims they are in her possession, inviting him to pick them up from her at ST Entertainment. Relieved, Seojun changes and heads over to the company.

Heeyeon cheerfully greets him as he arrives. As she returns the jewelry, she playfully asks him to treat her to bingsoo as gratitude. In the company cafe, Seojun looks around in nostalgia as Heeyeon reminds them of their past aspirations to debut as famous idols. Seojun smiles and tells her that she can still achieve her goals. After they finish the dessert, Heeyeon begs Seojun to help her with her monthly vocal assessment. Unwillingly, Seojun follows her into the practice room. Heeyeon blushes as Seojun stares at her, waiting for her to sing. She recalls how talented Seojun's singing was back when they were trainees and becomes too shy to perform. When Seojun prepares to leave, however, she changes her mind and asks him to help her with the difficult part of the song. As she sings, Seojun provides tips on how to adjust her posture and mouth position to maximize her vocal range. Following his advice, Heeyeon manages to sing the high notes and is surprised by her own potential.

Some time later, Seojun thanks Heeyeon for returning his jewelry and bids her farewell. Heeyeon grabs his wrist before he leaves and confesses her feelings for him.
