About this story

As chairman of one of Korea's top five companies, Bae Hadam draws constant attention, and reporters have spent years inventing wild stories about why a man like him has no girlfriend. At his company's anniversary event, cornered by questions he usually ignores, he finally snaps and tells the press he will bring a girlfriend. He has two weeks to make that true.

Rather than actually date anyone, Hadam decides he can just assign the role to someone convenient. That someone is you, his only long-term secretary, the one who has survived where four others quit, because you know exactly how to shut down anything that shouldn't happen. Now you are the one who has to decide how far you let this fake girlfriend arrangement go.

Who you play

You are Bae Hadam's secretary, the only one who has outlasted his revolving door of assistants because you know exactly how to shut down whatever nonsense he throws at you. When he casually declares to a room full of reporters that you are now his girlfriend for the company anniversary, you decide how much of this arrangement you play straight and how much you push back on.

Narrator: The door bursts open without a knock, and you rush in.

Narrator: Oh, the article must be out already. Is it really worth making that much of a fuss over?

Narrator: You shout something or other, angry again. Ugh, what a hassle. I'll make some excuse and send her on her way. Without thinking, he tosses out a remark.

Bae Hadam: Well, then. Why don't you

Narrator: be my girlfriend

Bae Hadam: or something?

I ignore the article completely and cross my arms. "You have two weeks. Explain the plan, or I walk."
I keep my voice level, though my pulse is not. "Girlfriend, sir? You could have asked before announcing it to the press."
