“No matter what happens, I will make sure that you enter the exam site. So, show me what it’s like to be the widow next door.”

Dae-Ho hesitates, saying that he can’t do it, but the strange thing whispers to Dae-Ho that Hong-Ju, a poor widow who has had four husbands before even having her first night, also wants a man’s hand…!
