Chapter 545: Advertisement Cancellation Issue (4) (Teaser)
Gu Jin-Oh began to reveal the real reason he tried to snatch the Galactica commercial. "Truth is, I was pressured by the political world. They told me to give the Galactica commercial to Oh Joo-Hyun."

Sung Yoon-Jae drew a sharp line. "What do you mean there was no way out? You should've gone after Oh Joo-Hyun, not Lee Dae-Boong!...
