I think some people are reading way too much into Jun and Hiromi's relationship at best. Jun was just a cover since answering "No.4" to the question of who she likes is a socially acceptable answer, whereas "Shin" is not (a la her living under the same roof, mom not liking her, etc.); you guys have to remember the "Japanese culture" dynamic as well as her specific social dynamic when it comes to answering that question in a socially acceptable manner.

Maybe after all this (meaning eps 5-10), Jun actually has something for her; but to claim that such was the case earlier on is to be wishfully missing what really happened earlier on in the series. She gave the socially acceptable response to the question, and Jun asked her to date him simply to keep her out of the way of Shin and Noe as per the earlier deal. That's how it all started; the fact that all of this has become far more complex than intended is a natural result of this kind of situation.
