Dreaming oF A Freaking Fairytale Episode 3 Recap

The third episode starts with Jae-rim leaving  upon encountering Cha min’s fiancée. However, it is later disclosed that Dan-a and Cha-min are in a strategic relationship for their companies, and they don’t really love each other. Nevertheless, Dan-a expects him to fulfill his responsibilities as a boyfriend in order to avoid tarnishing her reputation and warns him to stop ignoring her calls.

At home, Jae-rim is feeling quite hurt because Cha-min lied about being single and not wanting to marry, but she refuses to acknowledge her pain. Hwa-jin, her step-sister suggests that men pretend to be what they are not to seduce women and implies that she is naive. But Jae-rim cannot get Cha-min’s body off his mind especially when he carried her and how muscular he seemed underneath hie clothes. She believes that he is probably exercising.

Cha-min is unable to fall asleep because he is preoccupied with thoughts of Jae rim. He also appears to have a bit of sexual interest in her and exercises to alleviate internal tension. Nevertheless, he continues to daydream about the moment he held Jae-rim, picturing her flirty expression as she encouraged him to hurry up. He turns red because of this.

That night, Seon-jeong, a friend of Jae-rim, calls to tell her that she has recorded an erotic audiobook on YouTube to earn some money since she is short on funds and asks Jae-rim to give it a listen. Jae-rim enjoys watching YouTube videos but does not want to read the content because of its erotic contents.

The next day, Dan-a is grinding traditional ink for her father who is working on a portrait. However, when he inquires about her impending marriage to Cha min, her composed exterior begins to crack as she clarifies that her connection with Cha min is solely professional. Her father’s guards avoid her hot temper by turning away when they see her the minute they enter the room in order to avoid her bad mood.

Next day at work, Cha-min teases Jae-rim about the peeing incident but she is in no mood to banter as she confronts him about his fiancee accusing him of lying that he doesn’t care about love. But Cha min thinks he’s her next target and that she wants to seduce him for his money. But Jae rim declares that she can put up with a psycho boss for money but she would never date a psycho. Then pretends to be cordial and leaves much to Cha min’s surprise.

At work, Cha min’s secretary gives Jae-rim a tour of the club. She goes to the ball pit for the kids and sees Cha-min playing like a child which amuses her. Next, is the art gallery and the secretary shows Jae rim of Cha min with his umbrella. She laughs at this because all she can see is his umbrella. The last is the lounge which is a hot dating site. But Jae Rim notices that any woman who tries to flirt with Cha-min gets a cold shoulder from him as he flashes his umbrella in their faces. She and the secretary agree that someone with his temperament doesn’t fit such paradise.

At the reception, Jae rim greets a handsome new customer enthusiastically but Cha-min whisks her away to “train” her. Dan-a who enters at that moment notices and the staff with her tells her about Cha-min wanting to teach Jae-rim a lesson for using the club to get married. But she knows something is up, wondering why he is giving Jae-rim special attention.

Meanwhile, Cha-min gives Jae-rim the impossible task of hand-washing ivory lace till they’re white. Once he leaves, Dan-a sneaks in and tells Jae-rim she heard she is using the club to find a wealthy husband. She then tells her to go to the Wish Pavilion if she wants to marry. Her predecessor had spent a thousand dollars, wishing for a rich husband and was successful.

Cha-min wants to give more petty tasks to Jae-rim and declares to everyone that he will be her evil stepmother. The staffs tells him to go easy on her and he heads to the roof where she is drying the laundry. 

He finds her cute as she dances around while listening to music. He suddenly takes one of the earpods from her ear and they have a moment as they find themselves staring into each other’s eyes.

The song suddenly changes to Seon-jeong’s erotic audiobook and both get awkward. Jae-rim tries to take the earpod from him and they mistakenly fall but Jae rim ends up on top of him and the white lace wraps around her head like a bride. Cha min is flustered as he shakes her off him. He calls her a pervert and refuses to give her proper tasks when she asks. She cutely says she is harmless and he can’t help but stare at her pretty face as she talks. Feeling overwhelmed by his feelings, he suddenly places the laundry basket on top of her head to stop himself from admiring her and runs off.

He runs into Dan-a who asks if he likes Jae-rim. He denies it but Dan-a doesn’t believe him and proposes that if he doesn’t like her, he can prove it by helping Jae Rim find a match so she quits the club. She warns him not to make her angry and he kicks her out.

After work, as a tired Jae-rim stumbles out, Cha-min drives by mocking her for preferring marrying rich instead of working. Her annoyance gives way to fulfillment as Sang-chul texts her, thanking her for the money she has sent him to repay her father’s debt.

She then recalls Dan-a’s words and tries to get the money for the Wish Pavilion from Hwa-jin. However, her step-sister shares that Jae-rim should study or work to live a good life. She calls her out for wanting to get married for money, just like her dad. Jae-rim says at least their parents loved each other and that’s enough. Jae Rim is angry that Hwa Jin never called her father her dad and says that’s why she never called her sister. She leaves in anger.

Meanwhile, in the hospital, Cha-min checks on his dad who is broke and bedridden. They plan to get Cha-min married to Dan-a since he gets 300 million out of it. The dad tells him to stay on the path by advising him to ignore women and think of them as stones. But he instantly flirts with the nurse when she arrives.

Meanwhile, Jae-rim then tries to ask her second sister, Su-jin who is a doctor for mondt. Her colleague, Dr. Koo, who is rich, likes Su-jin and proposes a plan. He will give Jae-rim the money if she can get him Su-jin’s ring size so he can buy her a diamond ring. It goes smoothly as she steals Su-jin’s ring and even thinks she is doing her step-sister a favor by setting her up with a rich man.

Successful, Jae-rim heads to the Wish Pavillion run by a shaman and wishes for a rich man. 

Meanwhile, Cha-min listens to the audiobook and can’t stop thinking about Jae-rim but he gets flustered when hearing the erotic parts and starts imagining Jae-rim being sexy.

Back at home, Hwa-jin teases Jae-rim about the money. Her stepmother offers Jae-rim an allowance but she politely declines. As for Su-jin, she cannot find a ring of hers but Jae-rim doesn’t tell her she gave it to Dr Koo and runs off to work.

She arrives to work early to quickly finish her menial tasks but runs into Cha-min who announces that she can officially be a manager. However, he becomes annoyed again as he mockingly adds that he is not worried because she won’t be able to marry well. She takes a menacing step forward and suddenly he is turned on with the narrator saying it happens to men like Cha-min who ignore his desire for long. Every little thing Jae rim does would affect him.

Embarrassed, he backs away and stutters that Jae rim shouldn’t come close to him without warning. When she asks why, he runs off claiming she stinks. But Jae min can smell nothing bad and starts to wonder if she smells of poverty and even tries to rub the bathroom incense sticks on her hands since it smells like wealth. 

Alone at the front desk, she prays to her Wish note which contains a description of her ideal type. Suddenly, it flies and she tries to catch it, only to run into a tall, handsome customer who just entered the club. They smile at each other and Cha-min watches enviously from the side concluding the episode.
