Jude brought up his stepbrother Soren by himself for ten years. He once fought illegal boxing matches for tuition, which caused permanent damage to his left ear. After losing his memory in a car crash, Soren was taken in by his rich birth father. He handed Jude a five-million check to sever all ties with cold and harsh remarks. Heartbroken, Jude used the money to open a café and asked Soren to arrange a blind date to cut off their connection. Seized by jealousy, Soren covered three years of rent for the café and waited there every day, jealous of the thoughtful clerk Liam. When Jude had a high fever at home alone, Soren broke down witnessing Liam tending to him and confessed his ten-year secret crush. Before amnesia, Soren had loved Jude deeply with diaries to prove it, and they shared an intimate night on his eighteenth birthday. Confused, Jude fled to an island, yet rushed back once knowing Soren attempted suicide to reject an arranged marriage.
