In this scene, Dan Oh realized that she is starting to catch feelings for Haru.
She makes up an excuse and told her friend, Sae Mi that she has a friend who cannot stop thinking about some guy and that her heart races when she is with him.
She asked if that means that she has feelings for the guy. Sae Mi knew that Dan Oh was talking about herself and asked if that friend was Dan Oh herself.
Dan Oh was caught off guard that she kept denying the fact that is her.
Sae Mi misunderstood that Dan Oh was talking about her own fiancé, Baek Kyung and told Dan Oh that he was coming into their direction.
Dan Oh thought it was Haru but was surprised to see Baek Kyung instead. Sae Mi embarrasses Dan Oh and shouted at Baek Kyung across the school hallway and told him that Dan Oh was here.

After seeing Dan Oh running into the nurse’s office, Baek Kyung went into the nurse office to check on Dan Oh.
He sits beside the bed Dan Oh was hiding in and asked himself why he could not stop caring for her.
As he was known to be cold towards Dan Oh, Dan Oh was shocked to hear what he just said and realized that this was not part of a scene in the comic book.
