Since the beginning, the two have been making eyes at each other. Il Yeong has been seemingly paying Mi Ho visits as he attempts to set up Ji Hwan and Eun Ha. However, as he continues to visit Mi Ho, it appears that he is falling in love with her.

Their short but impactful scenes together make the viewers crave more of their interactions.

In particular, in "My Sweet Mobster" episode 6, their relationship progressed. Il Yeong went to Mi Ho's salon, which surprised her. They had a little date, ate dinner together, and exchanged stories.

After dinner, they left the salon and went for a walk. Since Mi Ho cooked for him, Il Yeong insisted on treating her to a coffee.

While they were walking and chatting, a restaurant owner accidentally dumped out a bucket of water, drenching the two. As both of them were flustered, he attempted to ensure Mi Ho was okay, but seemed too late.

The next scene hinted at an unexpected steamy night between the two as Mi Ho, who was at home, was struggling to eat her meal. She apparently had flashbacks to a steamy night with Il Yeong. It cut back and forth, sharing glimpses of their night together, including shots of them undressing each other and kissing.

Viewers went to social media and debated whether the two's intimate scene was a fantasy of Mi Ho's imagination. Some are convinced that it really happened. Going back to the scene, it panned to the Base Hotel, a place from when they got drenched. In a scene after that, Eun Ha noticed that Il Yeong didn't go home, as usually Thirsty Deer has breakfast together.

Then the members informed her that he's not often around at that hour as he is busy with 'romantic business.' These two moments show viewers convinced that the second lead couple has progressed much farther than the lead couple.

"Seated for them."

"I love them already."

"It really happened right? It's not her imagination?"
