Love in Contract Episode 8: Recap
The previous episode of Love in Contract was surprising to many fans. It showed Jung Ji-Ho getting closer to Choi Sang-Eun. The episode starts with Sang-Eun blushing and shyly remembering her talk with Jung Ji-Ho, where he was very considerate of her feelings and was worried that she would be uncomfortable if he raised the topic of her getting drunk and kissing him.
Moreover, he wants to spend more time with Sang-Eun, so he takes her to a married couple’s golf game with his boss and colleagues, where he does his best to make her feel comfortable. This increased his reputation and cemented the fact that he was a good husband to other people there. Sang-Eun was also pleased with this outcome.
Finally, much to the excitement of eager fans, Sang-Eun brings up the topic of the kiss, but then Ji-Ho starts making jokes and covering it up. But this raises many questions in Ji-Ho as he is not able to understand his own feelings. So he posts a query on an online forum, and online commentators tell him to just confess his love.
On the other hand, there is conflict raising with the Ina group Chairman, who wants Sang-Eun to leave the country. His secretaries meet up with Sang-Eun and inform her about this. As this is going in, viewers see Hae-Jin preparing for his lunch date with Sang-Eun, only for his mother to come to the scene and pick a fight with him.
