Jeong-Ho's voice was calm and mellow. It sounded more like a fragile whisper. But in spite of its softness, there was a hint of determination in the man's tone, which gave his voice a stronger feel.
"It's true that I agreed to come on this date. However, at the moment, work and other private matters are keeping me too busy to even think of having a relationship. I hope you understand."
At that moment, Su-Jin finally realized something.
The reason why she felt so comfortable around Jeong-Ho was because they were similar. Just like her, Jeong-Ho had also been unwilling to take part in a blind date. In truth, he wasn't randomly looking for a girlfriend, much less hooking up with a person he just met. Moreover, he seemed quite troubled by the mere idea of a second date.
Suddenly, the notion that she didn't have to reject this person made Su-Jin feel light-hearted. A heavy burden disappeared from her shoulders and she finally breathed with ease.
