Tae-moo fails in his attempts to woo Ha-ri in Business Proposal

Tae-moo plans to woo Ha-ri with grand gestures such as booking an entire theater hall to watch a movie or even stepping out for a meal in a luxurious dining spot. However, none of this works. Ha-ri is not aware of his intentions, and her interest continues to lie in her best friend. Secondly, Ha-ri's colleagues (Tae-moo's employees) walk all over his plans with their unintentional presence. The timing, the performance, and the entire setting is comical.

There is not much that Tae-moo can do at this point. The question that remains is how long it will Ha-ri to realize Tae-moo's intentions. For one, she can already feel her heart skip a beat every time Tae-moo is in her personal space. She is reminded of the kind acts that Tae-moo performs in her company. At this point, Tae-moo even goes as far as duping her friends while posing as her very rich boyfriend.

This development in Business Proposal occurs right after Tae-moo forces Ha-ri to step out of his vehicle when it's pouring outside. His fear of rain is connected to the death of his parents, and he seems incapable of sharing the truth with Ha-ri at the moment because of it.

Tae-moo comes back to his senses once the rain subsides. He searches the vicinity and finds Ha-ri at the reception of a hotel nearby. She is conversing with her friends, and he overhears their conversation. That's when he decides to play along with the lies that Ha-ri and her friend Yeong-seo had spun in the past.

The next episode of Business Proposal will likely explore the situation between Ha-ri and Tae-moo as it unfolds.
