Episode 1 of My Dearest Nemesis begins in 2009, where Baek Su-jeong is a tough, hardworking student dealing with bullies and family responsibilities. Through an online game, she meets “Black Dragon,” and they grow close, eventually developing feelings for each other.

But when they meet in real life, she’s shocked and embarrassed to discover he’s actually a much younger, awkward boy. The moment turns humiliating, and she leaves hurt and mortified—marking her first love as a painful memory.

In 2024, Su-jeong is now a bold and no-nonsense employee known for clashing with corrupt directors. A new director, Ban Ju-yeon—a cold, secretive chaebol heir—is assigned to her team. After a tense first meeting (including a car accident), they cross paths again at work, ending the episode on an awkward, high-tension note, that nearly kills Free!
