EPISODE 03 

“There’s no way Seulgi is a secret admirer”

“Don’t be too upset and come again next time...” Joy gives a small bow to Mr. Baek and Mr. Heo.

Mr. Baek persists and jumps to hug Joy.

Joy desperately frees herself and then she kicks Mr. Baek’s crotch. After she successfully kicks them off, she goes back to the bar as if nothing happens.
