The fifth episode starts off with a flashback that reveals how Yoon-seo’s team, along with I-rae, found themselves at her house. Following lunch, Yoon-seo’s younger colleagues opt to have dinner at her home so the assistant manager can assist her brother with his math assignments. I-rae is expected to bring their meal when Ju-won shows up, embracing Yoon-seo and exposing their relationship to their coworkers. Yoon-seo sees Ju-won off as he departs because they ended their relationship a month ago.
Yoon-seo and Ju-won’s hidden relationship causes much gossip within their group, resulting in various imaginative theories about their split. During the upcoming days, Yoon-seo is continually disturbed by her curious coworkers, causing her unease in the workplace. Yoon-seo is mistakenly slapped by the janitor in a string of humorous incidents, leading her coworkers to believe it was Ju-won’s mother. She confuses a blind date with a headhunter as a professional encounter. Regrettably, Ju-won catches wind of her being on a date, making things more complicated.
At the same time, Ju-won’s mother is worried about him moving out, and Si-won goes to see Ju-won, asking him to come back. Ju-won opens up later and reveals that Yoon-seo was the first person he successfully charmed by himself, making it impossible for him to move on and date someone else. He promises to long for her eternally.
Yoon-seo, worn out by the office drama, chooses to take a day off and leaves work early. While heading back to her house, she engages in a dispute with a careless driver. Simultaneously, she gets a phone call from the enigmatic man who has been reaching out to her. Feeling frustrated with her circumstances, she switches off her phone and flees to the Han River.
In the office, pandemonium breaks out due to a scandal with their artist, and Yoon-seo is unreachable. Ju-won recommends they should consider reaching out to Lee Seong-min, the original artist they initially wanted to collaborate with. Ju-won promises to ensure it occurs.
At the same time, Si-won invites Mi-jin to dine with him, and she accepts, specifying a place. Nevertheless, it ends up being a dinner with her friends, causing Si-won to depart. Later on, they talk about their lack of effective communication and Mi-jin agrees to keep in contact. They establish guidelines for harmony and Mi jin surprises Si won by stating she is not ready to have a baby for the next three years. She also exposes that their marriage was more than just an arrangement for her—she has actually held feelings for Si-won since he tucked her in on the airplane, which is why she consented to marry him. Despite feeling embarrassed after saying it. Si-won and Mi-jin’s relationship begins to improve.
However, the team successfully persuades artist Lee Seong-min to collaborate with them. Yoon-seo finally joins them late at night after turning her phone back on. She says sorry to the team, but Ju-won stays distant from her, still angry about her going on a blind date.
On the following day, Yoon-seo finds out that the unidentified man who had been contacting her through calls and messages is actually the artist Seong-min. Ju-won also understands this and has a feeling that Seong-min may have a interest in Yoon-seo. At the conclusion of the episode, Ju Won witnesses Seong Min inviting Yoon Seo to breakfast. He informs her that he cannot bear seeing her with another man. While she is alive, she remains the one and only for him.
