Just as love finally began to bloom, everything collapsed in an instant for Ahn Hyo-seop and Chae Won-bin.
The May 14 episode of the SBS Wednesday-Thursday drama 'Sold Out on You' followed Matthew Lee (Ahn Hyo-seop) as he made the painful decision to leave Dam Ye-jin (Chae Won-bin) after realizing he was responsible for the cosmetic product that destroyed her life.

For a brief moment, the two appeared to be healing together. Thanks to Matthew Lee’s support, Dam Ye-jin was finally able to sleep without medication and slowly began preparing for her return to home shopping broadcasts. Their growing affection brought warmth and stability back into her life.
But the peace did not last long. Dam Ye-jin discovered that the scars on Na Som-i’s face were caused by the very cosmetic product she once sold. Overwhelmed by guilt, her trauma resurfaced, and even her sleepwalking symptoms returned. Calling out Som-i’s name in tears while apologizing in her sleep, Dam Ye-jin once again spiraled into emotional collapse.
Matthew Lee was left devastated as he watched her suffer. The cosmetic product at the center of the controversy had been developed by him. Burdened by the truth and the irreversible scars left on Dam Ye-jin’s life, he agonized over whether he should confess everything.
Meanwhile, microorganisms exceeding safety standards were discovered in the Letoile essence product that Dam Ye-jin had refused to sell, opening the door for her long-awaited comeback. Seo Eric (Kim Bum), executive director of Letoile, publicly cleared her name during a press conference, while Hit Home Shopping offered her a new contract.
Yet Dam Ye-jin could no longer trust herself as a show host and turned everything down, leaving a bitter sense of heartbreak behind. Determined to push her back toward her old life before it was too late, Matthew Lee finally revealed his identity and cruelly lied that his kindness had only come from guilt.
Unable to accept his words, Dam Ye-jin desperately demanded the real reason. But Matthew Lee coldly replied, “I feel suffocated whenever I’m with you.” His icy expression and Dam Ye-jin’s shattered gaze delivered the episode’s most painful moment.
Episode 8 of 'Sold Out on You' recorded 2.5% nationwide ratings, according to Nielsen Korea.
