Shocked at Ryan’s appearance, Deok-mi falls from the ladder. In a voice-over, she says, “Sometimes, for the sake of making a living, you have to pretend to be a regular person who doesn’t know what fangirling is.” We flash back to Director Eom interviewing Deok-mi. The woman had seemed disinterested in Deok-mi until another girl interviewing for the position admitted to being an idol fan. Director Eom had asked Deok-mi if she too was interested in idols, but sensing the mood, Deok-mi feigned ignorance. She ended up getting the job because her boss was sick of her daughter fangirling and didn’t want to associate with fangirls.
