'Absolute Value of Romance' can Kim Hyang-gi capture Cha Hak-yeon's heart?
On the 15th, Coupang Play's 'Absolute Value of Romance' (directors Lee Tae-gon, Kim Jun-hyung) episodes 11 and 12 depicted Yeo Euiju realizing her feelings for Gaus (Cha Hak-yeon) and being moments away from confessing.
Among the stories of Gaus and Yoon Dong-joo (Kim Dong-kyu), Yeo Euiju, having learned that Gaus might go to the United States to study and return, asked when he would go to the U.S. and how long he would stay. But Gaus's only reply was "It's too late. Go in." Troubled, Yeo Euiju misunderstood that Gaus was leaving for the U.S. with a girlfriend and was deeply disappointed.
Gaus and Yeo Euiju met again at the shelter where Choi Ji-a (Yoon Hye-rim) was staying. Worried because Choi Ji-a had not shown up at school for several days, the two teamed up to look for her, and when Yeo Euiju first discovered she was accepting customers' drinks after saying she was giving tips at the rib restaurant, she pulled her outside.
At that moment, the loan shark thugs Choi Ji-a had borrowed money from appeared, heightening the sense of crisis. In the dangerous moment, Gaus appeared and temporarily resolved the situation by paying even the interest on the money Choi Ji-a had borrowed. To Choi Ji-a, who insisted she would definitely repay the money, Gaus said, "When you grow up, help friends in need," delivering a touching moment.
It seemed the crisis for Choi Ji-a would end there, but the thugs, saying they had miscalculated the interest, took Choi Ji-a again, creating tension. Gaus first tried to solve it but it was not easy, and Yoon Dong-joo showed unexpected fighting skills and subdued the thugs. With that, all the crises surrounding Choi Ji-a ended.
In the process, Yeo Euiju cleared up a misunderstanding with her best friend Choi Go-ya (Kim So-hee). When Choi Go-ya showed a resolute determination to protect the person she loved beyond her pure feelings for Yoon Dong-joo, Yeo Euiju was impressed and said she also liked Gaus and wanted to prevent him from going to the U.S.
Choi Go-ya recommended confessing, and taking the advice, Yeo Euiju prepared her confession lines amid her troubled heart as class time flew by. After worrying, Yeo Euiju steeled herself and intended to stop Gaus as he was leaving work to convey her feelings.
