After dinner, Sunz asks Grace to wait for him at the lobby for 5-10 minutes so he can change into something more presentable.
While waiting in the lobby Grace was approached by a familiar face.
“Why are you dressed so fancy? About to go on a date or something?”
Grace “Oh, Announcer Lady! Thank god you’re here, I need your help.”
Sogae (Announcer Lady?!): My name is Sogae and I work all types of jobs here. I’ll gladly give you a hand young lady. So what do you need?
Grace: I only have 10 minutes! So can you please tell me the best places to visit around here?
Sogae: Calm down for a bit. First I need to know the reason, how many people will be going and the purpose of this trip.
Grace: Isn’t reason and purpose has the same objective?
Sogae: It’s No actually. Reason is the cause of this trip. Purpose means what do you want to achieve on this adventure.
“Now! Answer quickly! You only have 9 minutes left! Go!Go!Go”
Grace: Ok then. I accidentally cause this situation to happen and it’s a two people trip male and female.
Sogae scribbles words onto a small piece of paper: Are you two friends, a couple, or something else? And what do mean by “Accidentally”?
Grace: For now we are rivals. And maybe friends, I guess? And for the “Accidentally” part… Had you ever tried to “seduce” someone and it actually works, kinda? Well, that is the situation I created for myself.
Sogae: Your situation is quite unique I must say. But there is really nothing out of the ordinary for now. So what is the purpose of this trip, to increase the chemistry between two people or just to hang out?
Grace: What is the difference between those two options? It feels like both have the same outcome.
Sogae: Good question! Once you’ve been giving out tips like this for a while. You’ll see what creates the best events or the worse. So this is my advice. Want to get married, the first option. Want to slowly figure out each other, the second option.
“By the way 3 minutes left!”
Grace is feeling a bit frantic (Ugh what should I choose! Is he somewhat into me or is he trying to play tricks on me? Why am I panicking right now?!)
(I know I’m the one that causes this but am I into him… Why did my action have so much consequence!)
Sogae: Uhm… You ok Miss?
Grace: Can I have a bit of both? I want to increase our chemistry, but not too much.
Sogae “Sure no problem!” writing everything onto a small piece of paper and giving it to Grace.
Sogae: These are the places that are within the hotel vicinity. You can use this note as a suggestion but not everything will go according to plan. Remember that!
Grace: Thank you so much! I hope I did not take too much of your time.
Sogae: Don’t worry! I have nothing to do at the moment anyway.
“And 10 minutes is over.”
Both hear a “Ding” sound from the elevator and as the door opens Sunz walks out of it. This time instead of wearing casual clothes he is wearing a two-piece suit.

Walking toward the lobby Sunz tries to fix his new outfit a bit so he can look more presentable. When he met Grace again he did not expect to see Sogae.
Sunz to Sogae “Oh Hi! I didn’t expect to see you at this moment.”
Sogae: And I didn't expect to see you going out with her.
Sunz: Strange world we live in right? Haha.
Sogae: Well I have to go now. Got other stuff to do, so have fun you two.
Sogae leaves Sunz and Grace in the lobby together.
Sunz to Grace: That was a bit over 10 minutes sorry about that.
Grace stepped closer to Sunz and fixed the clothes for him: Haizz, at least you show up. Next time don’t be so hasty. I’m not going to run away.
Sunz blush a bit: Uh yeah ok I’ll remember that.
Grace: I didn’t know that you would bring this outfit to the tournament.
Sunz: Well, my parent forces me to. They said I always need to have one professional outfit prepared for special events. And I think they are right. Like always!
Grace “There done! Now aren’t you looking handsome!” she chuckled.
Sunz: Please don’t say that about me. Anyone can look good in a suit.
Grace: Feeling a bit shy when you get compliments?!
Sunz: Yeah…
Grace: Enough fooling around. Let’s have some fun tonight! And remember…
Sunz: No complaints.
Grace: Good now Let’s Go!
A few minutes after leaving the hotel. Grace pulls out the note that Sogae gave her earlier. She wants to check all of the recommended places.
Grace (Market, karaoke, music festival, park… ), ( I know that he lets me choose the locations but I don’t want to drag him to somewhere he doesn’t like.)
Sunz sees that Grace is acting a bit strange so he decided to stop for a moment. When he stops, Grace just keeps walking without noticing anything. Letting her walk a bit further then he shout “HEY”.
Which caught her attention. As she looked around her area, panicking and wondering where is Sunz. He slowly walked toward her and asked “Are you ok? You keep spacing out.”
Grace: You like food?
Sunz: You ok??
After that question, Grace just starts running away from Sunz to a nearby park and she is also pretty fast.
Sunz ( I guess we are doing this then) knowing that he can’t match her speed. He tries to find a blind spot and chase after her a few seconds late.
Grace is now questioning her past decision while running away from Sunz ( Why am I acting on impulse so much today. And how did all of it happen in one day…)
She then looks back at the path behind her, sees that Sunz is nowhere to be seen, and decided to stop. (Did I lose him or did he just leave?)
Seeing that there is a bench near her area and no one is around. She decided to sit down after that chase. But after sitting down for a minute and calming herself down. Sunz appears right in front of her and asks “May I sit next to you?”
Grace nodded at the question.
Sunz sits down and tries to catch his breath.
During that moment, Grace gives him the note that Sogae gave her.
Sunz takes the note and asks: What is this?
Grace: While you were changing I ask Sogae for some places that we can visit and these are the locations she recommended.
Sunz: We got a plan right here. So why did you run away?
Grace: Do you like any of those places?
Sunz: I’m ok with the places that you want to go.
Grace: Haizz! You can complain if you want. I don’t want to drag you to a place that you don’t enjoy.
Sunz: Was that the reason for you to run away?
Grace: Yeah it was! You gave me this ability to control your decision and you aren’t even allowed to refuse it. Which makes me feel bad.
Sunz: Oh! Ok!
Grace: “Ok” Is that all you can say you HEARTLESS BASTARD. Think about yourself for a moment, please! Do you like to be treated like a dog?!
Sunz: Haha! It’s kinda fun when you show your angry side.
Grace holds her hand out as a signal: Are you wishing for a hard slap right now!!!
Sunz: Ok ok, I’m sorry please calm down.
Grace: You’re unbearable… What are we going to do now? Return to the hotel or go somewhere else.
Sunz: I do have a location in mind. But are you going to run away again?
Grace: Depending on where you taking me!?
Sunz: I can’t reveal that!
Grace sighed: I won’t even bother with it. I had been stressed out so much tonight, so everything is up to you.
Later they arrive at the location.
Grace: This…This is what you have in mind.
Sunz: You sound disappointed.
Grace: You choose this place because you saw me ice skating during the tournament. So you thought that it would be a great place to visit. Of course, I would be disappointed!
Sunz: I guess we could go back…
Grace: Why would we do that?! You drag me out here then I might see how well can you skate.
Sunz: But you sounded like you wanted to leave!
Grace: I was disappointed but not to that extreme. Come on let’s go.
Sunz (Woman is so hard to read!)
Inside the ice skating ring
Sunz (Ok this is not as hard as I thought. But compared to her I am a total amateur): Can you stop circling around me, please? I feel intimidated.
Grace: That's your problem, not mine! Now start skating!
Sunz: I’m sorry to disappoint you but I’m not here to skate but to…
Grace cut his sentence: To break my leg and ruin my ice skating dream.
Sunz: NO! What is wrong with you?!
Grace: Come on no need to be so loud, I was joking. Please finish your sentence.
Sunz: As I was saying, I’m not here to skate but to Dance.
Note
When Sunz and Grace are alone together they both speak French.
