"Winter, who is this...?"
"Ah, Mom. Well, you see..."
"Your boyfriend?"
"No, Mom! It's..."
While Winter was stammering and flustered, not knowing what to do, Hugo bowed politely to Sunjin.
"Nice to meet you. I'm Hugo Kang."
"Oh my, oh my."
Winter's mother, Sunjin, seemed utterly unable to comprehend the situation before her eyes.
However, upon seeing the tall and handsome young man standing beside Winter, she couldn't help but smile warmly.
"Oh my, Winter told me she came to Jeju for work, but I had no idea she came with her boyfriend."
Hugo silently gave a slight smile.
Winter was still linked arm-in-arm with Hugo, unable to pull away and just fidgeting nervously.
"Mom, it's really not like that..."
"Why are you being so shy? Did I interrupt your date without realizing it? Call me when you're done with your work, okay?"
"No, Mom! It's not a date! Well, it is a date, but..."
