The Shocking Revelation
Ji Hye-in was in the situation of listening to the explanations from the cafe operators.
She had said she wasn't a cafe member...
But for Ji Hye-in, it wasn't a situation that posed any major problem.
After all, the operators had thoroughly prepared in advance to ensure that nothing major would happen.
"Is Ko Dong-seok doing well?"
"He seems to be just maintaining his business as usual.
He has completely given up on the social sports association work... he doesn't even meet outsiders anymore.
He must have been shocked.
They say he suddenly came and dragged him to the mountains and beat him...
Honestly, people who haven't experienced it can't feel that fear..."
"Unfortunately.
Still, a man needs some backbone...
He needs the spirit of 'either die or die trying'...
This work requires that...
Taking another man's woman... isn't easy...
Even if it means getting stabbed with a knife dozens of times...
Skillfully... handling it... is the skill of this world...
He... too crudely... confronted it.
Inviting his own wife's meal... to challenge...
That's not courage, not backbone...
It's like saying 'stab my belly'...
Well...
It's really unfortunate..."
Some of the cafe operators were gathered discussing.
Jo Bong-young, the vice president from a large conglomerate, was cautiously bringing up the topic again to Dr. Hwang Jeong-geon, the psychiatrist.
"Actually... I'm a bit uneasy.
Later... when Hye-in's husband finds out about this fact...
I wonder what kind of reaction he'll show.
Actually... I'm a bit worried.
Seeing her single-handedly find Ko Dong-seok and do something like revenge...
It seems like he's not a man who's easy to deal with, so I'm concerned."
"Usually... when we look at the husbands of the women we've taken...
Most of them seem to have some kind of missing piece in their psyche...
They have a strong image of being losers who can't properly take care of their own wives...
But Hye-in's husband doesn't seem to be like that, so I'm a bit concerned."
"Manager Jo...
Are you very close with that former executive director Park Young-ho?
In terms of relationship... how easy would it be for me to understand?"
Dr. Hwang Jeong-geon was cautiously asking.
"We are close.
The age difference is not much...
We met at business golf gatherings, but...
We've been keeping track of each other's celebrations for over 10 years."
"In case...
Later... if Hye-in gets caught by her husband.
We... make sure the cafe side doesn't get harmed...
And we can flip the situation so that all the blame is put on that former executive director Park Young-ho.
Is it possible to create such a situation?"
Dr. Hwang Jeong-geon was throwing quite a bone-chilling question.
Vice President Jo nodded his head.
"Well... business relationships... the enemy of today can be the friend of tomorrow... and the opposite is too common...
Well... if we have to accept such a situation... we have to accept it...
After all... he's not a blood relative...
If we are to survive...
There must be a scapegoat, right..."
On Vice President Jo's serious answer...
Dr. Hwang Jeong-geon opened his mouth again.
"Hye-in... I'll keep it a secret until the end.
This is because it's a different issue from her sub nature.
Instead... for that former executive director Park Young-ho...
Before meeting Hye-in, we will clearly open up and start.
If that former executive director Park Young-ho is a kind-hearted person without a villainous nature...
Even if he dies... he won't accept the demand.
Moreover... if he's already been humiliated by her husband... it will be even more so."
"But... even if he knows this behind-the-scenes...
If he accepts it willingly...
That former executive director Park Young-ho has a scary villainous nature.
It seems we don't need to worry about his future as a villain either."
Dr. Hwang Jeong-geon was speaking with a sharp gaze... and Vice President Jo, who heard the explanation from the sharp-eyed doctor, felt like something had clicked.
They were only mediators in the middle...
Later, if problems arise, the dirty work... will be dumped on former executive director Park Young-ho.
It was simple, but a story that resonated...
Vice President Jo also thought that would be good.
At first... originally... when he had ordered former executive director Park Young-ho to do something about Hye-in's husband...
He knew that if he was a righteous person, he would have flatly refused.

"I'm really sorry to say this...
Your wife... that is... Mrs. Yang Mi-sook... has another man she's meeting now.
This has been confirmed as a fact."
Pharmacist Ma Kyeong-il... was unable to respond at all because he was too shocked.
Momentarily... it felt like his mind was spinning.
To not lose his grip on his sanity... Pharmacist Ma Kyeong-il was habitually taking deep breaths.
It was Pharmacist Ma Kyeong-il, who was asking the private investigator's representative sitting opposite him with a trembling voice again.
"Who... who is it...
And... how long has it been?"
"Um... I'm really sorry, customer...
To investigate more deeply here... we need to deploy more staff, so the activity fee will be a bit more."
"Um... how much..."
"About 500... if you deposit it... within a few days...
I'll present photographic evidence."
"I'll send it right now...
As fast as possible..."
The private investigator... in fact, even though he had already secured all the evidence... was in a situation where he smelled the money from Ma Kyeong-il, who ran two pharmacies... so he was pulling a little more money additionally.
From Ma Kyeong-il's perspective... money wasn't the issue now.
"You know...
As detailed as possible...
Who the other person is...
How long the relationship is...
Please do all that in detail.
Absolutely... don't let my wife notice..."
"Is there any problem...
As fast as possible... evidence... I'll bring it."
The private investigator... was already in the situation of having figured everything out.
In fact... it was an incredibly shocking content...
And it was obvious that Ma Kyeong-il would receive a huge shock.
The private investigator was expecting that Ma Kyeong-il would be devastated when he learned it.
After a few days passed... the private investigator and pharmacist Ma Kyeong-il sat facing each other again.
The past few days had been a hellish time for Ma Kyeong-il.
It had been too long since he had been sexless...
He couldn't even remember when he last had sex with his wife...
But because they had been getting along well without any big fights...
Ma Kyeong-il was even more shocked.
The cafe activities... were a huge stimulus in life.
Especially hugging the cafe public sub Hye-in...
It was an incredibly intoxicating time.
But... the more he hugged her... once... twice...
The trust in women of this world... collapsed...
And eventually... it spread to cuckoldry.
But this cuckoldry was not an unfounded vague feeling...
This time it was clearly revealed.
When Ma Kyeong-il saw the photos presented by the private investigator... he couldn't hide his shocked expression.
"This... this is... real..."
"Customer...
Please look at all the photos behind... and talk about it...
If you look at all the photos to the end... you won't need any more explanation."
On the private investigator's explanation...
Ma Kyeong-il was quickly flipping through the photos.
Photos of a naked man and woman hugging and having sex without a stitch on.
It looked like inside a motel.
There were also naked photos of the man's penis entering the woman's body.
But... that man was a man he knew very well.
It was too big a shock for pharmacist Ma Kyeong-il.
He had lived with his wife for a long time...
Even in the honeymoon period... his wife had never performed oral sex on him.
But... in the photo... his wife Yang Mi-sook...
Was sucking the man's penis in her mouth full of it... drooling saliva while sucking it.
The naked photos were not just a couple.
Ma Kyeong-il looked at the man's face.
His pharmacy school classmate he met at 20...
His colleague pharmacist Ko Ki-yoon he had been friends with since 20, now in his 50s.
The friend who introduced him to the cafe... invited him to the cafe... made him enjoy the cafe public sub...
That friend... was now... having sex with his wife... sucking and such...
It was clearly revealed.
Ma Kyeong-il... felt so powerless... he just wanted to sit down in his seat.
Because Ma Kyeong-il had such a devastated expression on his face...
The private investigator's boss... was unable to hand over the remaining photos he hadn't given yet.
