TOP MANGA OF THE MONTH

[“I accidentally touched the CEO’s groin while drunk”] Getting drunk is troublesome, but the CEO is even more troublesome. One day after the company party, after drinking just a little too much, with the background, the personality, and the unrealistic CEO and his juniors, Eunwoo ends up in an awkward situation. It’s not the time to be frozen in shock. Eunwoo, having regained consciousness at home, decides to flee before the CEO, who woke up from sleep, notices the incident. The CEO was also clearly drunk enough not to notice, so if Eunwoo pretends not to know, she could get away with it… that was the hope. The CEO, whom she encounters in the elevator while drunk, says, “Why did you go ahead first? Wake me up.” On that day, he knew all the truth. “I know this isn’t an excuse, but I… I was too drunk that day… I’m sorry.” “Well… I don’t know if there’s anything I should apologize for, or if you should be apologizing to me…” “…I thought everything that happened that day was unfortunate.” “Really? Should I say it specifically? Are you apologizing because you feel bad, or because you feel bad for me, or are you just apologizing in general?” The CEO, interpreting the groin incident as responsibility, did not let Eunwoo resign. Not because of modern work ethics, but because, apparently, he meant to date her. Eunwoo, who had no idea, starts a romantic relationship. Life is not easy.
