Ji Hoon wakes up in the early hours of the morning; the sun hasn't even really appeared in the sky. He actually couldn't fully sleep last night; he kept remembering his promise to Iseul to attend her engagement ceremony today.
Today is the engagement day of the woman he loves.
Thinking of that, he could feel an enormous pressure on his chest. Although he said that he would try to act as her friend, he couldn't really accept all of it completely. At least, he just needed more time to do it, but he wasn't willing to take back his words as a man.
Ji Hoon went to the bathroom to clean his body; he spent a long time in the bathroom. He let the water wash his body completely while he just stared at the floor with a blank expression. He waited and waited in the hope that the cold water that soaked him might ease his pain. When the cold water made his hair cover his face, he wiped his hair slowly with his hands.
After he finished the bath, Ji Hoon then took the best clothes he had from his closet. He tried to make his appearance look perfect and applied his masculine perfume spray. Although he knew today was not his day, he wanted to appear in front of the woman with his best appearance. After being done with everything, Ji Hoon then got out of his apartment and walked towards his car, which he drove to the park where the engagement ceremony party would be held.
      The park where the party will be held is set in a beautiful setting. There are several chairs for the guests, and there is a white metal arched door with ornate flowers on it that is installed in the center of the garden. Almost all the guests from both sides were already there, congratulating the couple with their cheerful smiles. Both families greeted the guests with happy faces.
    Ji Hoon's eyes captured the figure of a beautiful woman with her white dress.  She wore a long dress up to her knees and tied her hair with some beautiful accessories; she looked very adorable and dazzling in her appearance. The woman smiled brightly as she wrapped her hand around Ro Woon's arm. Ro Woon also wears a nice suit that looks harmonious with Iseul's dress. Ji Hoon was just silent in his position. He sighed heavily and tried to put a smile on his face.
"Oppa... You are here?" ask Yoon Hee, who suddenly appeared from behind Ji Hoon's back with Gary.
"Annyeong Ji Hoon-ssi," greet Gary to Ji Hoon. The man just bowed and smiled politely at Gary.
"Have you met Iseul Unni?" "Let's meet her together," said Yoon Hee.
"all right... Let's go..."Ji Hoon agreed.
The three people walked towards the happy couple together; their other office colleagues were also there and chatting with Iseul's parents. Iseul and Ro Woon see their friend coming closer, and they give their best smile to greet the three of them.
"Thank you for coming," Ro Woon said to the three of them.
"I'm glad that you want to come here, Oppa..." Iseul spoke to Ji Hoon and gave the man her best, cheery smile.
"Woah... Mong Ji, you look pretty enough today; you really look like a real girl," Gary teased Iseul.
   "What do you mean by" enough"? My fiancee really looks perfect." said Ro Woon, who wrapped his arm around his lover's shoulder. Iseul just smiled at Ro Woon's behavior and looked at Gary with a triumphant smile.
"Oppa, unni... the ceremony will begin now," said Ji Eun, approaching Iseul and Ro Woon. Ji Eun then asks the three guests to sit in their chairs together with their other friends. They are joined by Suk Jin, Haha, and Kwang Soo, while Jae Suk goes ahead to be the MC of the party.
Jae Suk starts the main agenda with a little joke to make everyone laugh. He is really a great MC and can handle the whole agenda with his talent.
"By the way, everyone, it's going to be such a waste when there's a big and famous singer here if he doesn't sing a song for us, right?" Jae Suk looked at Ji Hoon. Everyone nodded and looked toward Ji Hoon as well.
    "Should we ask Kim Ji Hoon to sing us one song?"Jae Suk asked the guests
    "ne!!"Of course, everyone is very happy to hear the song. Ji Hoon tries to reject it, but he doesn't want to make everyone feel disappointed with him. He then stood up from his chair and went ahead. Iseul smiled as she saw Ji Hoon was about to sing for her engagement ceremony while the other guests gave him a standing ovation.
Ji Hoon walks towards the piano and begins the beautiful melody of the instrument.
"Congratulations to Iseul and Kim Ro Woon for your engagement. I want to sing a song for their happy day, a special song called "To Her Man" for them," said Ji Hoon and started singing. As always, everyone will be amazed by his beautiful and deep voice, and they will enjoy the song sung by Ji Hoon.
🎶She doesn't even know how pretty she is, so
All day she'll fuss in front of the mirror like a fool.
Ji Hoon smiled as he sang the part; for him, Iseul would be the most beautiful woman in the world.
🎶 Don't hold the words "I love you."
Be the first one to speak up when she pouts with anger.
And if by chance she thinks of me and hurts
Just hold her close, even if you feel unhappy.
 
Ji Hoon was really sincere when he sang the part; his heart really wanted to say the word directly to Ro Woon as Iseul's man. He didn't want Ro Woon to make the same mistake of holding back those three words and hurting Iseul as he had done before. He really wanted that woman's happiness from the bottom of his heart.
🎶 If sometimes she complains about stupid things,
Always soothe her with a smile.
When you drop her off, always turn around another time to look
And if she tries to break up with you, be stubborn and hold onto her.
Ro Woon listens to every word Ji Hoon says for him through the song; he looks at Iseul, and the woman looks back at him. Ro Woon then tightened his hand grip and smiled for the woman, and she did the same.
🎶Why is it now that I've come to realize all these things?
Why is it now that I feel like I've done the best I could?
If, for one day, I could trade places with you
I'd show her all the love I couldn't before.
The other started to feel suspicious about the song Ji Hoon was singing, and they now wondered in their minds if he had a previous relationship with Iseul. Why did he sing the song like he was trying to give his loved one to another man? Jae Suk and the others also feel something strange is happening, and they just stare at Ji Hoon with sad faces as if they are beginning to understand his hidden feelings.
🎶It's true. I still love her.
And it's true that I still wait for her like a
Every day I turn it over and over in my heart like an echo.
But it's she who's left my side and looks elsewhere.
It's she who will be by your side.
After Ji Hoon finished the song, the guests seemed hesitant to applaud him; they just felt unsure if giving the guy an applause was the best thing they could do. Somehow they feel the sadness of Ji Hoon's song, and they also feel sad because of it. Ji Hoon bends down after he finishes the song and then walks towards Ro Woon and Iseul.
"Sorry, but I have to go now." Ji Hoon told them.
"Can't you stay any longer until the ceremony ends?" Iseul asked
"I can't; I have another schedule, and I have to leave soon," Ji Hoon lied.
How could he possibly stand it and see the woman he loves engaged to someone else in front of him? He couldn't stand it all; he just wasn't ready to see the truth being revealed before his eyes, so it was better for him to just leave, maybe forever.
      "mianheyo..."Ji Hoon said it again, and Iseul just nodded in understanding.
Ji Hoon smiled and bowed to Ro Woon before he stepped on his feet to leave the place. Iseul kept looking at Ji Hoon's back until the man completely disappeared from his sight.
"Okay, both couples, please exchange your rings," Jae Suk said back to the main agenda. Ji Eun appears and approaches Iseul and Ro Woon with a pair of beautiful rings in the box. Their engagement rings.
