Episode 2
Mr. Shin!
Miss Lee Soon Shin!
Oh my God...
Do you know that girl?
Hell no.
Lee Soon Shin?
What a weird name. Are you meeting somebody here?
Yeah. Choi Yeon Ah.
Yeon Ah? You're meeting her?
Why not? Can we not see each other?
No. I'm not saying you can't.
Soon Shin got her beauty from you.
I've heard a lot about you.
So you've trained many famous stars.
I'm flattered.
First of all, thank you for being kind to my daughter.
But do you really think she...
You have a great daughter.
I thought she could be a great star the moment I first saw her.
Let me train her, please.
I'll make her a big star in six months.
Did you say you're Shin Joon Ho?
- Yes, I am Shin Joon Ho. - Thank you very much.
I'm not just saying this.
I'm so happy you said my daughter has potential.
I really appreciate you.
What is this?
It's a contract.
How about we sign the contract since you came to see me here.
A contract?
I don't want other producers to steal her.
If I draw a sword, I never put it back.
Miss Lee Soon Shin, let's do this together.
Do we have to pay you this amount of money?
Are you kidding me? No, you aren't going to pay me.
I'll give you this amount of money.
You give it to us?
- Are you giving this money to us? - Yes.
It's a contract deposit. I'll give it to you today.
It's not like an enslavement contract.
Please read this contract carefully and if you have any questions, let me know.
Are we dreaming or something?
Choi Yeon Ah, now you're coming to me on your own.
Relax. Relax.
I can't be low-profile. I need to focus.
I have to be careful.
Hey, 100-Won Coin.
Me?
Yes, you. 100-Won Coin.
Are you my stalker? Why do keep hanging around me?
What? A stalker?
Then what are you? What are you doing here?
Are you here to complain because you get fired because of me?
Do you think I'm that bored?
And you're wrong. Who do you think you are that I came here to complain to you?
Oh, yeah? That's a relief.
Anyway, 100-Won Coin, don't show yourself in front of me, okay?
You have no idea what you did to me that day.
I don't want to see your face either.
By the way, who do you keep calling me 100-Won Coin?
I have a name. It's Lee Soon Shin. The fatherland hero, Lee Soon Shin!
Have you not gone to school at all?
Did you fall asleep during history class?
Lee Soon Shin's face is on a 100-won coin, not a 1000-won coin.
Fine.
I guess you're super bored.
Today I'll take whatever you say to me.
I'll understand. You can call me whatever you want to.
But I'm not bored enough to play with you now.
Because I got fired, I have a great chance to reinvent myself.
I might come here to find you and say thank you later.
I gotta go. I'm a busy person.
Hey, you! Stop right there. Stop...
Did you bump into something?
No.
I didn't bump into anything.
Yes, you did.
Your forehead is swollen.
You're still the same.
You still don't have quick reflexes.
Why would I not have quick reflexes?
- Let's go inside. - No.
This isn't a good place for us to talk.
Why don't we go upstairs?
I'll give you a tour of my company.
Sure.
- Hi, Mr. Shin. - Is everything okay?
Yes, sir.
- Is Mr. Oh upstairs? - Yes, he is.
This your first time here, isn't it?
- Hello, Mr.Shin. - Yes, everything's all right?
Yes, sir.
Mr. Ko from the Channel 5 agency called.
He wants you to call back.
Yeon Ah, say hello to my assistant, Jo In Seong.
Your name is Jo In Seong?
Yeah, it's Jo In...
He wanted to be an actor but gave up because of his name. He made the right choice.
- You're beautiful... - Let's go in.
Your office is bigger than I thought.
It's not that big.
That reminds me of old times.
You look great when you sing.
I never knew you thought like that.
Since when did your style change?
How's the business going?
I heard you're free from your agency. It's a big issue now.
Is this why you wanted to see me?
To talk about your future agency?
Did I catch on too fast?
Tell me what you want for your working conditions. I'll think positively.
I'm focusing on actors now.
Scouting Song Mi Ryung was like a signal tower.
Give Mrs. Song to me.
What are you talking about?
Actress Song Mi Ryung. I want her.
I'll scout her.
I'm willing to pay the penalties, so let me work with her.
Let you work with her? What the heck are you talking about?
I was talking about scouting you into my agency.
I'm going to run my own agency too.
I'm tired of working for somebody else's agency.
I'm thinking of running my own agency.
Mrs. Song is like a mother to me.
Since we both are actresses, I can take better care of her.
I think she signed your contract because of her friendship with you.
Don't ruin her future. Just let her free.
'Ruin her future?'
You think that woman signed the contract because of some kind of relationship?
You've got her all wrong.
That woman can't be a mother to somebody.
Only you think you're close to her.
- Do I? - And...
Not everyone can run a business.
Take my advice to heart.
I don't know if we're dreaming or not.
Mom.
Isn't this a prank?
What are you talking about?
I went there to pay for some acting class fee.
I can't believe we're getting the money from him.
We should have a party tonight.
Everybody will be so shocked.
Mom, I really don't know what's happening now.
How could this be happening to me?
I'm sure he has critical eyes.
That's why he found you, my little baby.
Cheer up. You can do this.
You don't have to be successful or famous.
Since you have the chance, do what you want to do.
Mom...
Whenever I see you, I think of myself at an early age.
After my mom and dad passed away, I was raised by my uncle and aunt.
I felt so small while living with them.
Nobody was mean to me, but I don't know why I felt like that.
I don't want you to feel that way.
From now on, be confident and don't back down.
I'm going to support you!
Be brave, okay?
Yoo Shin. Wait, Yoo Shin.
Didn't we finish talking about this last time?
Why do keep doing this? Don't you have a pride?
How many times do I have to tell you? I'm not interested in you.
Then why did you watch a movie with me and hold my hand?
Why did you hug me and...
kiss me?
Are you from the Joseon Dynasty or something? You're so old-fashioned.
If that's the reason why I have to marry you, everybody would be married to somebody.
Besides, I can hold hands with, hug, and kiss with any guy.
Even though you're saying all this, I know you're not that type of woman.
Okay, then what type of woman am I?
You're a pure, lily-like, monogamous woman.
I know. I know everything.
Besides, you were the first women that I kissed!
Please don't do this to me.
You're sick.
Stay like this for a while.
Do you still think I'm pure like a lily?
Hey, did you get mad at me?
Hey, I said I'm sorry.
I'm sorry I almost stole your first kiss.
Do you still live like that?
What do you mean?
Didn't you see him? He was a total stalker!
'Lily-like woman?' Ew!
Have my cheeks turned red?
You pushed me so hard. How come you haven't changed a bit?
I thought you would get less strict if you're discharged from the military.
You, King of the Strict, how are you going to integrate yourself in society?
It's none of your business.
Why are you being so sassy?
Do you want to take credit for helping me when I was so drunk?
Fine. Thank you very much.
I heard I was very drunk that night.
Hey, this is what friends for.
Just let it go, okay?
Oh, I heard you got hired at a hospital.
Wow. I bet your mom will show you off to everybody.
She doesn't know doctors are everywhere these days, does she?
- Hey. - Yes?
Watch your mouth.
Wow, what a good boy.
I gotta go. See you later.
He's too conservative. What should I do?
Mom, is it really true? Did she get the contract deposit? Did you check?
Yes! Do you want to see the bank statement? He deposited 10 million won right away.
Since the company is very well-known, they get things done quickly.
Treat your sister well and show some respect now.
We should. We might be introduced as Soon Shin's sisters. We should flatter her.
Tell us how you feel.
I'm so shy. I never thought this would happen to me.
But I still don't even know what's really happening to me.
So you're saying she will be jumping on a stage on TV?
Mother, that's what a singer does.
She will be an actress. An actress.
Like Yoon Jung Hee, you know.
I can't believe she'll be an actress.
Mother, stop yelling at her about not having a job from now on.
Aren't you proud of her?
Yeah. People sometimes get possessed by something.
I guess he was possessed by something.
Or you look like his early wife.
- Yoo Shin! - Don't get so excited yet.
Why are you treating her like she has already become a super star?
10 million won? I bet he'll ask you to give it back for a training fee.
- That's their trick. - No, it's not!
Why do you hate her so much?
Can't you at least wish her good luck on a day like today?
Honestly, what have you guys done for her so far?
You guys only care about yourself!
Don't you feel proud of her as her sisters?
Does she have to be a top star?
Mom...
Why did you get upset about this?
Yoo Shin did that because she's just worried about Soon Shin.
Grandma, don't worry.
Don't worry, guys. I won't make you worry about me anymore.
I guess all of my luck is coming back to me.
What are you saying? Are you telling me to give the money back?
Give him the money back and let's just pretend nothing happened.
She shouldn't be an actress.
Why not? Why not?
You really can't trust Soon Shin?
You should've discuss this with me first. Why did you sign the contract without telling me?
It's not like we have to pay money for that. He said he would give us money.
He also said she can always quit if she wants to.
This is a great chance for her. Others are dying for this opportunity.
If I say no, it is no.
It's not as easy as you think.
You're doing this because you don't trust her.
What's wrong with our family?
Why can't they trust her? This is why she is...
Cancel the contract tomorrow.
- I'll talk to Soon Shin. - No.
I can't do that.
I won't let you handle it this time.
- Honey. - I'm disappointed in you.
I'm disappointed in Mother too. They all should be happy for Soon Shin.
It was him. I'm positive.
Who are you?
Never mind. It's nothing.
You're here, Mr. Hwang.
Hey, I told you not to let anybody come in without my permission.
Pardon?
Don't get me wrong. I'm here to take my stuff.
Did you prepare my retirement pay?
Your retirement pay?
I believe you will. When you're ready, give me a call.
Retirement pay for what I've worked on for 30 years.
I'll never forgive you.
All right. Just get out of my house with your stuff, you bastard.
Leave right now.
Don't call me bastard. That's not very nice of you.
If you were a mother, you'd be an awful mother.
Oh. I saw Chang Hoon.
Do you remember Lee Chang Hoon?
What a small world. I think he lives in this town.
- So? - I'm just saying.
Does he know you moved to this town?
Hey, give him his stuff already and get him out of here.
I'll send you a statement for your retirement pay.
You can leave now.
Do you remember Lee Chang Hoon?
What a small world.
I think he lives in this town.
Mrs. Song.
You didn't have lunch yet, did you? I bought some Sushi.
Be honest with me. What's on your mind?
What are you talking about?
Isn't it because of Mr. Shin?
Don't be too mean. You will regret it.
Have you ever done something you regret?
Yeon Ah.
Do you know how I became who I am now?
By not looking back.
I don't look back at what's already in the past.
Regret isn't in my life.
I'll pick you up at the institute. Wait for me there, okay?
If a stranger tells you to follow him, don't follow him.
Even if he says he will buy you something nice, don't even follow him. Understand?
I don't want to go to the institute.
Why not?
It might be uncomfortable at first but if you make some friends, you will be fine.
I want to go home.
This is our home now. Where else can we go?
Woo Joo.
She's a little rude bastard. How did Hye Shin raise her?
What's that?
What? Oh, it's a script.
Mr. Shin emailed me this so I can practice.
What? A script? Isn't it too soon?
- Let me see. - No.
- Give it to me. - No.
- Give it to me. - I said no.
Are you guys fighting again? Soon Shin, go tell Dad breakfast is ready.
Okay.
Dad, are you there?
What were you doing there?
I was looking for Woo Joo's desk. She said she needs one for her study.
- Breakfast is ready. - Soon Shin.
Can we talk for a second?
Being an actress isn't easy.
It will be much harder than you think.
Do you have to do this?
Honestly, I don't want you to do it.
Dad...
Dad, I know. I know nobody though this could happen to me.
It happened so fast.
So I don't know what's what.
But Dad... I... I'd like to try this.
Do you think I can't do this?
I've always felt so sorry for you and Mom.
I'm not as pretty as my sisters.
I'm not as smart as they are.
I always make trouble.
No, you don't.
No. Dad, I know I'm not the best daughter.
What are you talking about?
Dad, I want to be a good daughter to you and Mom.
A daughter that you can show off to others.
That's all I want.
Hey, Lee Soon Shin, is it true?
You heard about it?
Oh my God! How could that happen to you?
I know.
I couldn't fall asleep last night.
It's such a ridiculous situation.
Why is it ridiculous?
- Hey, honestly... - Honestly what?
I mean, Shin Joon Ho isn't the type of person who would cast anybody off the street.
He's so arrogant and conceited.
He considers one's qualities and methods.
And why did he cast you himself?
He's a CEO.
- Do you know him? - Of course, I do.
Even our company doesn't want to work with his singers.
Because they think they're the best.
But that doesn't mean he shouldn't scout people off the street.
By the way, he seemed very nice.
He didn't seem arrogant at all. He looked very humble.
Are you sure he was Shin Joon Ho?
Are you doubting me?
No, I'm not. I just want to make sure he's the right one.
Yes, he is! Are you ignoring me too?
Aren't you going to work? I'm busy today.
I have to go to an acting school starting today.
Relax your jaw.
It will feel heavy for a second.
You're all done.
You will see the difference after two weeks.
- Does it still hurt? - No. Not at all.
By the way, who are they?
They are from China. They came to learn my skills.
Wow. I knew you were a great doctor.
But I didn't know people from abroad come to learn your skills.
Doctor, don't be so famous. It'll be hard to make an appointment with you.
How is it? Are you getting used to working here?
How do you feel about working here?
I not good enough to be like you. I'm still learning.
My hospital doesn't need a humble doctor.
It needs a great doctor.
Your reputation among patients is very good.
I scouted the right person.
Thank you.
Doctor Shin.
Are you sure he's Shin Joon Ho?
Can't she just be happy for me?
You've got a message.
Congratulations! I heard about the good news. Fighting, Lee Soon Shin!
Hello.
Yes, this is Lee Soon Shin.
What? A loan?
I didn't borrow any money.
A 20 million won loan under my name? I never did that!
Have you given anyone your personal information?
- Personal information? - Think hard.
You applied for this loan and we deposited the money right away to your account.
How can I help you?
I'm here to see Shin Joon Ho.
Mr. Shin?
Who are you?
I'd like to meet Mr. Shin Joon Ho.
I'm Lee Soon Shin and I signed a contract with him yesterday.
An acting contract?
What are you talking about? Mr. Shin never did that yesterday.
I signed the contract in the restaurant downstairs.
He also signed the contract and sent me the contract deposit.
He sent you the deposit contract?
Yes. Do you want me to bring the contract?
- Should I show you? - No, no.
What's going on? He never did that.
He would never sign a contract without telling me.
Oh my God! You were swindled.
- What do you mean? - What did he look like anyway?
It's not just you who was swindled by him.
So 20 million won was deposit into your account, right?
- Yeah. - That was a loan.
Out of 20 million won, he put 10 million won into his account.
He said the other 10 million won is your contract deposit, right?
Yes. He asked me to deposit 10 million won to his account for the training fee.
That's his trick!
He took your 10 million won and ran away.
There are so many new tricks that make people crazy.
Then do I have to pay the money back to the bank?
For now, you do.
The loan was under your name.
Wait, so...
So I have to pay for the loan?
You are so naive!
You can't just give out your personal information like that.
You even gave your seal to him!
I met him at his building!
That's a basic trick for a swindler like him!
He's such a bastard but you should've been careful!
I can't believe you fell for that trick. Did you want to be a celebrity that badly?
It's partly your fault!
He was a legit swindler! Didn't you know that?
Oh my God. Why is everyone dying to be a celebrity these days?
They just want to look cool. That's all.
I'm stupid.
I'm an idiot.
My karma today isn't good.
Did something good happen to you?
I don't know. I can't stop giggling these days.
You look weird. Why can't you stop?
What are you giggling about?
Mother, it's about Soon Shin. Aren't you proud of her?
Is that why?
You know what, Mother?
I'm so happy that the amazing man noticed Soon Shin's potential.
I don't care if she becomes famous or not.
I will be fine if she quits being an actress.
I'm just so proud of her getting picked up by this great agency.
Mother, you named her very well.
Now she's worth the name.
I kept that name for your son, not for her.
She will do her best.
Because she came to our house, you won't have any more children.
Mother.
Please treat Soon Shin as your real granddaughter now.
When did I not treat her well?
It's not my fault that she is not as good as the others.
She is as good as others! She's smart and cute!
Why do you take more care of Soon Shin than your biological daughters?
When do I do that? I usually take more care of Yoo Shin and Hye Shin.
Are you kidding me? You only care about Soon Shin, not Yoo Shin or Hye Shin.
They always do well without me.
You're right, Mother.
To me, Soon Shin is more like my real daughter than Hye Shin or Yoo Shin.
Strangely, she's just like me.
That's true. She lacks something like you do.
You're right.
She lacks something and so do I.
Why are you crying?
I don't know.
I can't stop crying. I'm so happy that I'm crying.
Excuse me. Excuse me.
Hey, do you remember the guy that came here with me last time?
Has he come here again?
I don't know. Who are you talking about?
She's aging in reverse. Look at her shiny skin.
Are you kidding me? Yours is better than mine.
A woman should get married to a rich man.
Now her social class is different from us.
- What are you saying? - 'What are you saying?'
You're such a snake. You're so adorable.
This is why all guys chase after you.
I'm being indulging you because it has been a long time since I've seen you.
To be honest with you
I never knew you would quit your job and marry a man who you dated only for six months.
Was he that attractive?
Of course, he was.
Oh my goodness.
Oh, when is he coming to Korea anyway?
We should throw a welcoming party for him.
You little bastard. Fine, fine.
After I finish unpacking my stuff, I'll throw a big party.
Yay!
I'll be right back. I have to make some calls.
- Your honey? - Yes, my honey.
Mr. Kim.
She has been like this for hours now.
It's driving me crazy.
I think she got dumped by her boyfriend.
She's sick.
Doing that won't make him come back.
Somebody has to go to talk to her.
Dude, just leave her alone.
What if she makes our customers leave?
It's pretty horrible.
Excuse me, Miss.
Yes?
You shouldn't be doing this here.
Hey, Hye Shin.
Soon Shin, are you outside?
Yes.
Can you go pick up Woo Joo from the institute?
The meeting with my friends is taking longer than I expected.
Okay.
Hye Shin!
Do you smoke?
Yeah.
Oh my God. I can't believe our nerd Lee Hye Shin is smoking!
A woman should get married.
After you got married, you became more down-to-earth!
Dad?
Are you busy?
Okay.
I will call you later. Okay.
Woo Joo.
Did you wait long?
Where's Mom?
She will be late because of the meeting with her friends.
You can speak Korean, huh?
That's good.
I thought you couldn't speak Korean anymore.
Because I can't understand any English.
That's a relief.
Idiot.
What?
Stupid. It means you're stupid.
Yeah, I'm stupid.
I am stupid.
Fine. Call me whatever you want.
I'm so stupid that I don't even know what 'idiot' means.
I'm so stupid that I was swindled.
I was being so greedy.
Nothing ever goes right for me in my life.
Fine, I'm stupid!
How you two are coming together?
Hye Shin asked me to pick her up.
How was the acting school?
- Did it go well? - What?
Oh, today was my first day. So...
So how was it? Tell me more about it.
I have to go out again.
Where are you going again? Are you meeting somebody?
Yeah, yeah.
Nice job today.
Excuse me.
Oh my. It's time to close the shop.
Could you leave?
It's so dusty here.
That brings back old memories.
you looks great when you sing.
What is she doing? Why is she walking around there all day?
What are you doing, sir?
Didn't you go home?
I will go home only if you go home.
I saw you added a night work allowance to your paycheck.
What are you talking about? Here is the contract you wanted me to bring.
Good job.
By the way, are you scouting Choi Yeon Ah?
Is she your younger sister or something?
I got her confused with Kim Yeon Ah.
You know she's a little sister to all Koreans.
- You can go home now. - Okay.
[Actor's Exclusive Contract]
You said you would be late but you came early.
What's all this?
Aren't these candles so beautiful?
The color is very profound and mysterious.
Like you.
- Hi, Mr. Shin. - Hey.
I though you would come home late. So I invited her.
This is so nice. We should have a party.
The dinner I made was so good I invited her over.
I thought I would feel sad if I ate alone.
If this beautiful actress eats this food, I would be happy and honored.
I guess you're not that busy lately.
You had time to come over.
I'm not free. I guess you don't watch TV.
You need to watch some dramas. How do you even communicate with patients?
Mi Ryung, I'm so sad because of him.
He makes Joon Ho date female doctors so he doesn't get married to a stupid celebrity.
My mistake. I wasn't talking about you. You're an actress.
There are still people that are very old-fashioned like you?
What's so good about having a doctor daughter-in-law? She won't have time for anything.
That's what I'm saying.
Is Joon Ho not home yet? Why is he late everyday?
Don't you know how great celebrities are these day? You're so stuffy.
She's not a heavy drinker.
She becomes so cute if she gets drunk.
Thank you.
You also think I'm cute, right?
Mi Ryung, my heart still flutters when I see him. Am I crazy?
Why do you ask me that? Ask the doctor here.
Call Joon Ho.
Why? It'd be better if he doesn't come home.
You must be drunk.
It's getting late. I should go home.
Why? I'm not drunk at all. Don't go. You can sleep over.
Please?
Did you sleep here?
- Give me a glass of water. - Okay.
The weather today is so nice. I guess Spring is coming soon.
Yeah. I should go get some fresh air.
- Hello there. - Hello.
Good to see you. Take care.
Long time no see, Chang Hoon.
Long time no see.
Soon Shin.
Did she leave already?
I didn't order this.
You can have it. You haven't eaten since this morning.
May I ask you who you're waiting for?
He's a thief! Stop right there!
You're...
Hey. Hey, you!
What are you doing?
I lost him because of you!
Lost what?
You pay off my loan! You pay it off!
Let it go. What's wrong with you?
Pay it off!
What are you doing?
Hey, stand up.
Hey, get up.
Joon Ho.
Yeon Ah.
- Who is she? - I don't know. What did I do wrong?
Why did you want to see me?
[Contract.]
- What's this? - Don't you see it? It's a contract.
Read it over and write down the price you want.
I'll give it to you.
I'm saying I admit your ability as an actress.
Because I only deal with top stars.
Joon Ho.
Why do you want to run an agency? You can just make a contract with me.
Write down the price you want.
Why do I have to do that?
How can I trust your ability?
Your ability as a producer.
Ability?
How can I prove it?
That girl.
She's still over there?
Train her.
What do you mean?
It's easy to deal with only top stars.
Can you make her a top star?
A super star.
Then you do have ability.
Then I'll sign this contract with you.

Do I still look easy to you?
Will you let me work here? I'll do my best.
Just forget about him and start with a clean slate.
- Did you wait long? - Do you work here?
Shall we begin?
If I open my mouth, Song Mi Ryung is done.
Look for every reporter who might have spread it.
I hate it here. Let's get a house.
- I don't have money for that. - Why did you get a divorce?
- What are you talking about? - I don't know. Chan Mi said it's a secret.
What's the secret?
Lee Soon Shin? She's not here.
Can I talk to Shin Joon Ho?
