In this episode, the first kiss between Baek Soo-jung (played by Moon Ga-young) and Ban Joo-yeon (played by Choi Hyun-wook) while drunk marks the beginning of an undeniable love, providing excitement and laughter. Soo-jung spends the night pondering why Joo-yeon kissed her. While waiting for Joo-yeon's confession with subtle anticipation, Joo-yeon confuses her with his ambiguous attitude, causing Soo-jung to grow anxious. Unable to hold back, Soo-jung confronts Joo-yeon, asking if he will just brush off what happened last night, but Joo-yeon dismisses it as a ‘drunken mistake,’ which infuriates her.
In fact, Joo-yeon does not remember the kiss with Soo-jung. On the day of the kiss, Joo-yeon's memory was interrupted. Unaware of this, Soo-jung perceives Joo-yeon as a playboy, leading to humorous moments as she brushes her teeth in anger.
On the other hand, Joo-yeon initiates a project to appear as a man, neither younger nor a department head, to Soo-jung. After receiving advice from a secretary who married a younger man, Joo-yeon lightly catches Soo-jung when she almost slips, and after securing a contract, he treats his staff to a luxurious hotel buffet to showcase his wealth, trying to appeal to Soo-jung. However, Soo-jung, already hurt, shows no reaction, leaving Joo-yeon unable to hide his disappointment.
Meanwhile, Soo-jung decides to go on a blind date in a fit of anger, catching attention. Joo-yeon witnesses the dating scene and feels bitter about it, but the reality of being a group heir prevents him from getting closer. Hyo-seon (played by Ban Hyo-jung) officially announces Joo-yeon as the heir of Yongseong Group through a charity event for the first time.
Hyo-seon warns Joo-yeon, “You must not make mistakes to become the heir. Focus only on the company. Don’t be swayed by unnecessary emotions,” prompting Joo-yeon to suppress his feelings for Soo-jung. After being officially recognized as the heir of Yongseong, Joo-yeon can no longer roam around in Black Dragon mode, so he visits a performance venue alone to enjoy his last moments of freedom. However, only Soo-jung's voice echoes in his mind, and he finally remembers the drunken kiss he had forgotten.
At the same time, Soo-jung is shopping with her blind date, Yoon Ji-hoo (played by Hong Jong-hyun) at a department store. At that moment, someone pulls her into a fitting room, and it turns out to be Joo-yeon. Surprised and worried by Joo-yeon's sudden appearance in Black Dragon mode, Soo-jung is at a loss. Joo-yeon then confesses, “I know I was out of my mind, but I remember everything. That was my first kiss,” causing Soo-jung's heart to race.
Moreover, the sound of an employee knocking on the locked fitting room door raises curiosity about how the two will handle the crisis. With Soo-jung becoming aware of her feelings for Joo-yeon and Joo-yeon risking exposure of his long-hidden secret to pursue her, anticipation rises for what kind of romantic developments will unfold in the future.
‘That Guy is a Black Dragon’ airs every Monday and Tuesday at 8:50 PM.
