I've never seen anyone this beautiful.

Would you like to learn judo from now on?

After Jo Jun-ho excused himself, Jo Jun-hyun and So Yi-won found common ground discussing sports, particularly judo. When So Yi-won expressed interest in learning judo, Jo seized the opportunity, immediately asking if he could teach her from that moment on.

“

Aren't your high heels uncomfortable? I'll carry you on my back.

As they moved from the cafe to a restaurant Jo had booked, his assertive courtship continued. He offered to carry So Yi-won, noticing her heels, and also asked if he could help her with her car's seatbelt. These gestures, described as a 'bulldozer' style of affection, clearly indicated his strong interest and eagerness to impress his date.
