For Romance, Call the Boss

Episode 40 of 86

Do Hye-ju is a lifelong singleton who works an office job by day and writes adult web novels in secret at night. When director Han Jung-woo discovers her serialization, she is fired on the spot, but the company soon finds it cannot manage without her. Jung-woo offers her job back, and this time Hye-ju sets the terms, hiring him as the consultant for her steamy scenes. Their coaching sessions begin right away, governed by a contract clause that ends everything if either side develops real feelings. As their practice scenes pull them closer, Hye-ju struggles to tell whether Jung-woo's advances are part of the lesson or something genuine.
