The Coupang Play series What Comes After Love is an emotional melodrama that tells the story of what happens after the end of a fateful love between a woman who has forgotten everything and a man who is filled with regret.
In this episode, Hong’s (played by Lee Se Young) fiancé, Minjun (Hong Jong Hyun), sternly warns Jungo (Kentaro Sakaguchi) to back off. With her fiancé’s sudden appearance, Jungo pleads with him to never make her lonely. Jungo’s confession that he finally understands the weight of the time Hong has endured alone deeply moved the viewers.
One of the most intense scenes in this episode was Hong’s emotional outburst toward Jungo. The loneliness she had endured alone finally erupted with her tears, and the moment crushed the hearts of those watching.

Facing her true feelings, Hong goes to find Jungo with a bouquet, only to witness him with Kanna (Nakamura Anne).
