Seong-jeong tries to get the English teacher to let him go, but the teacher refuses to listen to him. Seong says that he doesn't know if the girl with whom he was having an affair is the same girl that he was seeing with the man in the village assembly hall. The English teacher is sorry that their first meeting turned out this way, but he's glad he was able to help her out. He says that whenever he has any difficulties, he'll ask for help, but that asking for help shouldn't be embarrassed about. He's happy to help people anyway, he says, and sometimes we just need a little help. He asks Seongjeong to stay with him for a while, and he says he won't stay with her anymore because of his parents, but they can go to a hotel and be alone together. The teacher says that the man is pathetic and can't care for his own woman, which is why he got divorced. He wants to continue their relationship, and the teacher agrees.
