“Can you tell about Maiden Park…”… Jong Kook demand to the shop man. The shop man reply with nodding and

“Her name is Park Ye Jin and she was also a beautiful woman…In this town have no men who didn’t falling onto Maiden Park…she is very popular at that time… When she visited downtown, every men in this town were busy with courtship to her…In that man also include me….”… the shop man said this words with blushing tone. And he rise his glass and continues his talking.

“She was really kindness woman…she always help others and she also get along with ours… When I found her, I never see her face was lose the smile… she was so cute and adorable woman… but one day, we start aware that her face was losing usual smile… When she visit in the market, her face is always depressed and look like she had some troubled…therefore, we asked her to tell the problem…but she always reply ‘It’s all ok’ when we asked….And after a month, we didn’t see her till about two months… she was lost and never appear since that time…. Therefore, we went to ‘Floral Breeze’ and ask about her…At that time, we got the only answer that is she was run away from “Floral Breeze” and follow to Kim Soo Ro…but we didn’t believe that because we never heard Madam Park had love affair with Kim So Roo….Event thought, we didn’t believe, she was still losing until now”…. the shop man break his talking and drink the water for he exhausted as telling a long conversation.

Jong Kook now more dizzy. He ask about the rumors is only want to get the answer for his suspect. But now he didn’t even understand nothing and added about Park Ye Jin in his brain. Now, he nearly to crazy. The shop man aware his confusing because

“You’re confused now right!!!.... we also didn’t know what really happen in “Floral Breeze”…but I can inform you something”… the shop man words make him encourage.
