However, she was shocked to find out about his sexual fetishes. With this, Ji Hoo boldly asked his female co-worker if she considered having a different love affair.
Seohyun and Lee Jun Young's new film raises viewers' curiosity if Ji Woo and Ji Hoo will remain as friends with benefits or embark on a genuine relationship.

'Twenty-Five Twenty-One'
The fresh team-up with Kim Rae Ri and Nam Joo Hyuk excites fans as tvN teases fans with breathtaking still cuts and trailers for the upcoming Kdrama "Twenty-Five Twenty-One."
Helmed by "The King: Eternal Monarch" and "You Are My Spring" director Jung Ji Hyun, the rom-com series is set in the late 90s and follows the meet-cute story of Na Hee Do (Kim Tae Ri) and Baek Yi Jin (Nam Joo Hyuk.)
In the drama, Na Hee Doo is a member of their high school fencing team and dreams of becoming a professional fencer one day.
She was 18 when she met then 22-year old Baek Yi Jin, who works part-time after her father's business went bankrupt due to the country's financial crisis.
Four years later, they crossed paths and fell in love. The national team fencer is now 21, while Yi Jin is 25.
"Twenty-Five Twenty-One" will premiere on February 12 and will be the newest weekend Kdrama airing on tvN and Netflix.
'Forecasting Love and Weather'
The long wait is over for Song Kang and Park Min Young fans as the new romance drama "Forecasting Love and Weather" is set to hit the small screens on February 12.
Airing via JTBC and Netflix, the upcoming Kdrama illustrates the work, drama and love among the employees working in the National Weather Service.
Headlined by the Hallyu star and the South Korean heartthrob, they will portray the character of Jin Ha Kyung and Lee Si Woo, whose relationship is similar to cats and dogs.
Jin Ha Kyung is described as intelligent and does everything according to plan. Behind her beautiful face lies a cold and straightforward personality who likes to separate work and personal stuff.
However, Lee Si Woo is the total opposite and likes to think out of the box.
Joining Song Kang and Park Min Young are Yoon Park, Girl's Day Yura, and more.
