Mistaking him for her ex, she causes a scene, but he still helps her when she gets injured. Later, Me-ri unexpectedly wins a 5-billion-won luxury home through a newlywed giveaway. However, the store’s director threatens to revoke the prize, stating that couples must attend together. Unable to contact her ex, Me-ri turns to the other Woo-joo and asks him to pose as her husband.

Episode 2 of Would You Marry Me? opens with Woo-joo reliving the childhood accident that killed his parents but left him alive. In the present, Woo-joo turns down Me-ri’s sudden marriage proposal, suspecting it to be a trick. Meanwhile, his grandmother appoints him as her successor at Myungsoondang, replacing Eung-soo.

Later, Woo-joo meets Yoon Jin-kyung (Shin Seul-ki) outside the hospital, where a young girl suddenly falls. When he helps her, a stuffed toy from her bag triggers memories of the same toy a girl once gave him after his childhood accident. The next day, Woo-joo begins work as a team leader at his grandmother’s company.

During a meeting, his cousin points out that their hangwa packaging design is no longer under copyright protection, creating a legal issue. The design belongs to Me-ri’s firm. Acting on a tip, Me-ri files a lawsuit for copyright infringement, demanding $50 million in damages. Woo-joo later approaches her to settle the dispute.

Sang-hyun then accompanies them to the luxury home, stating that the property cannot be sold for 90 days and that he will visit often since he lives nearby. This leaves the pair uneasy. Afterward, Woo-joo encounters his aunt and cousin outside. Sang-hyun appears and asks about his wife, which the relatives overhear.
