‘Branding Inseongsu-dong (Planning: STUDIO X+U, Production: STUDIO Team leader Kang Na-eon, a 'workaholic' who can sell her soul for the sake of it, won an exclusive contract for XU Beauty's new product line through an unusual meeting called a 3-minute PT.

I end up losing.

Meanwhile, So Eun-ho, an intern at Seongsu Agency, was found participating in the protest on the side of the repair workers, and made a confident statement to Na-eon, saying, “At least we should do good marketing.” However, Naeon reprimanded, “If you want to be just under me, don’t do marketing.” In addition, Eun-ho suspected that 'XU Beauty' was lying about animal testing and the use of animal oil and was engaging in 'vegan marketing', but Na-eon calmed down Eun-ho's complaints by allowing her to meet the CEO of 'XU Beauty' in person. The CEO of 'XU Beauty' also hugged the rabbit, which is widely used as a laboratory animal, and expressed confidence, saying, "There is no such problem."

However, Eun-ho still could not erase his suspicions, and Na-eon eventually ordered him to come and check the factory himself. Eun-ho was relieved to see that the factory did not seem to be related to animal testing at all and tried to leave, but ended up witnessing dozens of rabbits being experimented on and trapped in a hidden space.

Meanwhile, in the 3rd and 4th still cuts released on the 6th, Naeon was captured at a pop-up store with a mysterious atmosphere with the CEO of 'XU Beauty'. Numerous people flocked to the pop-up store with a nature-themed concept, and Naeon caught everyone's attention by directly reaching out to create visual art that resembled the ripples of sea water. This raises curiosity as to how 'XU Beauty', which has been engaging in false vegan marketing, was able to hold a pop-up exhibition with Naeon that captured the hearts of so many people.
