In the fourth episode of MBC's Friday-Saturday drama 'Motel California' (hereinafter 'Motel California'), which aired on the 18th (Saturday), Kang-hee (Lee Se-young) returned to her hometown 'Hana-eup' as the on-site director of the motel remodeling project and reunited with her first love Yeon-soo (Nine Woo), who came to an end completely.
The ratings for the fourth episode of 'Mortel Callie' were 3.6% nationwide and 3.5% in the metropolitan area. Among them, the highest ratings soared to 5.3% in the ending scene where Kang-hee and Yeon-soo, who shed tears and missed Yeon-soo, met. (Based on Nielsen Korea furniture)
The broadcast on this day depicted Kang-hee confused after hearing the news of Yeonsu's marriage from her best friend Arum (Lee So-yi). After Kang-hee, who dreamed of Yeonsu getting married, saw Yeonsu and a foxy bride in her dream, she decided to go to 'Hanaup' as soon as she woke up from the nightmare to see what kind of person Yeonsu's fiancé was.
Kanghee, who decided to be in charge of the site manager of the 「Hana-eup Boomerang Motel Remodeling Project」, which has been rejected with her whole body, visited Hana-eup with Seok-kyung (Kim Tae-hyung) fully armed with sunglasses and scarves. Surprisingly, however, the client of the project was his father, Chun-pil (Choi Min-soo).
Chun-pil, who was disgusted when his daughter Kang-hee, who lived without contact, acted as if she were a stranger in front of him, tried to scrap the project, but he decided to join Kang-hee's unstoppable play after noticing that the contents of Kang-hee's proposal were based on the motif of the Dream Motel that he and young Kang-hee shared in the past.
Kang-hee, who finished a client meeting with Chun-pil safely, was about to rush out into the town to avoid being noticed by the people of Hana-eup, and she almost got into an accident with the vehicle of Yeon-soo and Nan-woo (Choi Hee-jin), who were training to drive. When Kang-hee saw Yeonsu picking up the surprised Nanwoo and getting him out of the car, she realized that Nanwoo was Yeonsu's marriage partner.
Yeonsu, who saw Kang-hee belatedly, approached embarrassment for a moment and expressed his pleasure, but Kang-hee "I'll just work quietly and go back without anyone knowing. So don't make a rumor about it." Moreover, Kang-hee said it was Christmas when asked how long she would stay, and the two were awkwardly separated from each other after recalling last Christmas, when they declared "First Love The And."
Seok-kyung, who watched Kang-hee from the side, realized that the reason Kang-hee refused to go 'Hanaup' was because of Yeon-soo, and Kang-hee confessed that she would not have messed up thanks to Yeon-soo, who has always been by her side since she was 9 years old.
Despite Kanghee's camouflage operation, rumors spread quickly among the people of Hana-eup that he had returned. At this time, Arum, a member of the gang (Kanghee Family), was angry at the villagers whispering about Kanghee, boasting that Kanghee's lover was Seok-kyung, the 'Hotel Heirs'.
However, talkative rural people began to spread unidentified stories about Kang-hee and Seok-kyung, and the story of Seok-kyung wrapped in 'Man of the Secret' eventually entered Yeonsu's ears and disturbed Yeonsu.

Then, Yeonsu found out that Kang-hee had come to the animal hospital and immediately went to find Kang-hee. Kang-hee, who was soothing her upset with alcohol, was sobbing wildly, shouting "You two look good together". The moment Yeonsu came to the motel California and laid Kang-hee down, Kang-hee grabbed Yeonsu in her sleep and said, `Gom-Tang-ee, you don't keep any promises you made with me. Why did you lose weight? Where else do you sell your glasses?" and Yeonsu grumbled, "I'll gain weight as before. I'll put on my glasses again."
Kang-hee said "It's okay. He fell asleep again after saying, `On the subject of meeting another woman,' and Yeonsu expressed her upset feelings, saying, `Then he is,' making her nose turn sour.
On the other hand, Kang-hee's life in Hana-eup became longer, and the more often she witnessed Yeonsu and Nanwoo, the more her upset grew. At the end of the play, Kang-hee's emotions, which had been pressed hard, exploded. Kang-hee, who visited the ice cream store with memories of Yeonsu alone, hid herself when she saw Yeonsu and Nanwoo coming into the store just in time.
Kang-hee, who was filled with resentment and jealousy at the appearance of Yeonsu and Nanwoo, secretly left the store and shed tears alone at the elementary school she first met with Yeonsu. At this time, an unexpected training appeared in front of Kang-hee. Yeon-soo asked why she was crying, and Kang-hee burst into tears of resentment, saying, `She changed, she changed.' As a result, it raised questions about the future of Kang-hee and Yeonsu, who are experiencing emotional turmoil by encountering numerous memories in 'Hana-eup', and how the square romance between Seok-kyung and Nan-woo, who are next to the two, will unfold in the future.
