      by chef Ideun, having completely left the highway bustling with cars, carefully navigated the narrow road connecting villages, his fingertips continuously tapping on the steering wheel. The puzzle pieces that had been floating around without any clear shape were now coming together. He needed to confirm everything through Ji-an, but if his assumptions based on the circumstances so far were correct, then an unimaginable picture was forming—one that a young Ji-an would have struggled to handle. Of all…

      Ch 48 Cover
      by chef Ji-an, who had woken up from a deep sleep, sat in front of the low table with a dazed expression, holding a spoon. As he turned his head toward the chicken leg placed prominently in the large bowl before him, his gaze moved to the chicken leg in the grandfather’s bowl. And then, to the grandmother’s empty bowl. Quickly using his spoon and chopsticks, he moved the chicken leg into the grandmother’s bowl, only for it to be returned just as swiftly with the words, “I like the dry meat.” Unable…

      by chef "What do you mean by that?" Despite barely having enough time to search for Ji-an, Ideun had come to the hospital at Rowoon's call, casually tossing the file in his hand onto the table. "There's something wrong with his pheromones." "Who?" "Ji-an. While conducting additional tests on him, you should get tested too." "Are you saying the imprint is breaking?" "We need to run more tests to know for sure. But has Ji-an been acting strange recently?" "I don't have time for this, Lee Rowoon.…

      Ch 47 Cover
      by chef Wearing clothes that weren’t even his own, but rather his grandfather’s oversized garments, and with cotton gloves on, more snow piled up atop the already packed snow beneath his feet. “Just this one more.” He wasn’t sure if his grandmother, who had already gone into the kitchen, heard him, but Ji-an continued shaping the well-packing snow into a small snowman. He picked up some small branches from beneath a tree in the yard for its arms and gathered scattered pebbles to make buttons. By…

      by chef "Did he think he was being careful? If he was going to scheme, he should have done it more thoroughly. In any case, no one had passed through the hallway during the conversation, and he had positioned himself with his back to the conference room cameras, ensuring his face wasn’t exposed. There was nothing problematic about him knowing Noh Haneul, after all. Adjusting his attire, Secretary Baek slowly exited the conference room. The recent collapse of a marriage discussion came to mind, along with…

      by chef "My baby, seriously, what should I do with you?" At Ideun’s words, spoken with a smile, Ji-an's ears turned bright red. "I can dry my own hair." Though he had shouted in protest, his voice was much quieter as he sheepishly lowered the towel draped over his head. "Alright." Even though he knew Ideun had sat down across from him, still smiling, Ji-an couldn't bring himself to lift his head. "Uh... you see..." Uncharacteristically, his words were preceded by hesitant sounds—uh, um,…

      by chef As the clock neared 10 p.m., Haneul hesitated briefly upon seeing his father and Ideun sitting across from each other in the study. However, as soon as he moved toward Ideun and sat beside him, he noticed the rigid expression on his father's face. "Now that Haneul is here as well, CEO Choi, let's get to the point. I doubt you came at this hour just to exchange pleasantries." At his father's words, Haneul instinctively glanced at Ideun. When he had entered the study, Ideun had briefly looked at him,…
