Hongberg!
Hey, Hongberg!
Why are you here?
How did you know that I was here?
Yeah sure! How would I know you'd be here?
Now that I see it, you do have abnormal abilities.
You... really!
Let's drop it...
I am totally beat now. No energy to joke with you.
What do you do at the company that makes you take the last bus every day?
It's the year-end! You don't know what year-end means?
But then... How would you know office workers' feelings?
No. I know it well.
Enough with that!
How would a rich house's young-master know of hard subsistence living?
I have to go early in the morning tomorrow, also.
Work at the company?
That's right. Min Hyeok is in that state.
If at least you can go there soon and learn the work to get experienced, it will be good.
It's a company Min Hyeok and you will manage someday, you know.
Come on, the boy dreams of making apps. Let him have a go at realizing that.
We should have him do what he wishes to do.
Who asked to give up the dream?
Dreams can be realized while working too, no?
Wonder if he could realize it on the side while at the company...
Jun Hyeok. Can you realize it while working?
I'm sorry. For the time being, let me just do what I'm doing.
See that! How can he realize it while working? He can't realize it.
If that's your thinking, there's nothing we can do.
But at least think about again. You understand?
Yes.
Wondering just in case... You aren't waiting for me, are you?
No going back tonight for me...
I am now in my room.
If it's some physical intern work, don't strain too much.
What are you doing over here?
You said we would meet at the check out.
Because I lost my way a bit.
Oh, great! How can you lose your way at a supermarket?
For somebody so smart at everything else!
I was always bad with directions. What can I do?
Who asked you to load up on beer like this?
This import beer is on discount. We're buying so much of it, but it's not like it will go bad.
That means you want to drink a whole pile of it?
Put it right back, fast!
You think so?
Gravity?
Yeah. Seeing the trailer, it looks like fun.
The story is about a woman who loses her way in space and returns home.
It looks like it will be quite touching.
It's of better quality than shoddy movies like "Intro to Civil Engineering".
Having fun with me now?
Hearing the phrase "lose way" makes me dizzy.
That too in space.
Is that right?
By the way, that Seo Jong Produce's court case has been prepared by other side's legal team.
All the files are over there.
Then it seems you may be going over there for a few days to do the work?
As the court session started earlier than I thought, I'm not even sure when I will be back home.
Where's that office?
Paju... Somewhere there.
Ajussi. I need to get down.
I'm sorry.
Hongberg. It's been a while.
Yeah.
Hasn't it been 3 days?
Meeting after a while, doesn't it feel nice?
I guess... May be so?
What's wrong with your leg?
Twisted my ankle a bit. As I ran with a box.
You ran with a box?
Physical labor must be a bit much at the company.
Right. It's full-time physical labor at the company.
Let's go. I may even faint.
Wait a moment. You stay sitting for a bit here.
Hey, it's embarrassing. I said it's fine!
The company is what, some war-zone?
You're always injured.
Why all this carrying by foot?
Companies are really war-zones. You thought they were playgrounds?
Christmas... then the year-end.
It's so aggravating to run around all day.
You don't see what it is, huh?
I do understand.
It seems you sweated a lot from running.
Sure, I really ran a lot--
You want to die?
It doesn't smell, okay?
That's what you think.
Damn you, really!
Watch out, or I'll kick your butt!
Let's go.
Mom. I'm back.
Aigoo... You were out to work for so long? I thought you were never coming back.
What company work can be this much?
Is it only you working there?
Dinner? If you haven't eaten, shall I make something?
Do you know how late it is? Of course I ate.
I'll go just wash up and sleep.
Isn't this blanket alright?
I didn't expect much as it was cheap, but it's so much better than I thought.
Also, I brought many cosmetics for winter, so wash up fast and try them out.
Jin A?
He will be going to the company?
Correct. He's made a good decision.
Sooner or later he's company-bound, so there's no reason to delay.
Thank you, for listening to what I said.
It seems a company position needs to be set up.
I'll have to talk to Director O on that.
For now, how about starting with the planning team?
That place is the best to learn all of the company matters.
Starting from a team leader level would work, won't it?
I want to start from an intern level.
Intern?
- To do what? - To do what?
Just the same as others, I want to start from the beginning.
It's better to keep myself a secret from the other employees.
What's the need for that? If you're working you should be at least at some decent level.
Then you'll learn the business fast, in an easier way.
May be not.
If that's how your thinking is, then do it that way.
Aigoo, this rascal. Even in his straight-as-arrow character, he's just like me. Admirable, isn't it?
So then, from when do you plan to started working?
If I can go even tomorrow, I'd like to start from tomorrow.
The sooner the better, I feel.
Really? But hold on...
If you're interning, you need to have a false name.
If it's No Jun Hyeok, won't they quickly figure out,
that you're No Min Hyeok's younger brother?
How about Chun Gil?
It's the name of a next-door friend in my childhood.
His father, a village teacher, had made the name after much thinking.
Come on, Chun Gil... What is that? So old fashioned.
Why not? 'Chun' for spring, 'Gil' for lucky.
It's damn good!
Jun Hyeok, what do you think? Chun Gil. Not bad, right?
I'm sorry.
Come on, see... He won't like it, you know.
Rather plain, and not old-fashioned... Isn't there any such name?
What about Jin Gu?
Name of the son of a friend of mine. Isn't it common and intimate?
Isn't it like a dog's name?
Baek Gu, Jin Gu and the like...
What dog has such a name? It's more like an actor's name.
Jun Hyeok, what do you think? Jin Gu.
I... well...
OK. Then Jin Gu it is, Jin Gu.
Then the surname? We can't have it as "No".
He is a namja. Nam Jin Gu then, Nam Jin Gu. (Namja - Man)
Nam Jin Gu? Then Yeo Jin Gu's better. (From 'Yeoja' - woman)
Su Yeong, what do you think?
Nam Jin Gu or Yeo Jin Gu?
Mmm... Yeo Jin Gu sounds better.
Hey, Yo, Jin Gu! So it's Yeo Jin Gu.
Isn't it nice? Try saying Yeo Jin Gu.
Hey yo, Jin Gu, yo!
What is she talking about now?
Leave the surname as just 'Yeo'.
Though it'll feel a bit strange, from now on let's make it Yeo Jin Gu.
Then, we will have to talk to Director O right away.
Are you crazy?
You mean you're coming to the company?
You dare try doing that, and I will really tell all to your family.
I'm really not a guy with any patience. Don't test my patience!
I don't know what your calculation is,
but you dare step inside this company, and right then I will just--
You know, right?
What are you doing?
Play a game with me!
Okay.
I'll have to hang up. Sleep well.
What? Sleep well?
Sleep well?
How can there be a punk like this?
He'll really be coming to the company? I mean, why?
Ah, seriously, this guy drives people nuts! (Idiom based on a Japanese word)
You don't know not to use Japanese words? (Idiom based on a Japanese word)
You know-it-all, I'll kick your--
Both of you shut up!
When it's just fine, why suddenly come to work?
I'm really going nuts.
He really can't be coming, can he?
I've got some snacks for you to eat. It's the weekend, so it won't take more than an hour.
You said you've caught a cold. Why do that?
It will take no time by car. Why not? See you soon!
Hello. Please have a safe drive today.
Hongberg!
What are you doing here so early in the morning?
Taking a walk.
A walk?
Why do you look all formal today?
Actually I'm more disheveled than usual.
Sure! I knew you'd say that...
Come. I'll walk with you till the bus stop.
What? Let's go together.
Is the foot a bit better?
After some sleep, it's a bit better.
The swelling went down too. It's quite fine.
Not that. I meant if you washed it...
Give it a rest! Right from the morning...
The bus is here. Let me leave!
Take care!
What's this? Why did you get on?
As I remembered, I have somewhere to go too.
- Going where? - Going somewhere.
What's that?
I'm almost there it seems.
This place?
I don't know where this is. As I see on the navigation, it will take 30 minutes.
Will be right there. Bye.
In 500 meters, please turn left.
What's this? Why do you keep following me?
No. It's not that I'm following you.
No, you said? You've been following me now, you know... Right from home!
See that, see that! You still say you aren't following me?
Really, I'm not. You're mistaken.
What 'mistaken'? You tell me honestly. You're coming to our company, right?
What's it? Some errand?
Didn't I say no?
-=Director O=-
Please go in. Only this far, for me.
You really didn't come to company? Anyway, I'm going.
Yes.
Where are you? You really aren't coming to work here, are you?
I'm in front of the company.
What? You've gone crazy or what?
Try taking a step inside the company! You dare step foot inside here, you feel I'll just stay put?
Haven't I told you, how badly I lack patience?
Don't come in. Absolutely do not come in.
The moment you come in here, I will lose it, okay?
This is the final warning, okay?
I have... already come in though.
What did you say?
You're trying to see how far you can push it?
Aren't you living for a tomorrow? I am one who lives for today!
The one who lives tomorrow is killed by the one who lives today.
You know that?
I'll soon be inside the elevator, so we'll lose the connection, I think.
Don't be in the elevator. Don't be in the elevator. Why would you be in the elevator?
Fine. I'm really one with no patience, but just this once I will take it.
Now that you've come here, hang around for a little while and leave by lunch time.
At lunch time, if I see your mug around, you're dead meat, seriously!
Understand?
I will do as I see fit.
This rascal!
Really, where does he think he is?
What is this? Didn't it say Paju? But where is this place?
Ajumma. How can you enter here? It's a one-way, you know! One-way.
One-way, you said? It couldn't be.
Ajumma, what are you doing? Pull the car back. Pull out!
Are you crazy? Do you even know driving?
Look properly and drive!
What do I do?
Damnit.
Where is this place?
Calm down, No Bo Yeong.
Let me calm down. Calm down.
Please say hello. Today we have a new intern.
Hello everybody. I am called Yeo Jin Gu. Please treat me kindly.
Na Jin A, please say hello.
He's called Yeo Jin Gu. He's a new intern working with us from today.
Huh?
How do you do?
I'll take this.
Where should I put it?
It's fine to put it in that nook there.
Come on. Let's do a 'fighting' for today.
Na Jin A, just as yesterday, check on the display items in the logistics warehouse.
The rest of you can go to the showroom for promotional sales.
Jin A, with too much toy volume, you can't do it alone, right?
Then who can...
I will go.
What's that? Yo Jin Gu, you'll do that on the first day itself?
I am a logistics warehouse expert. Just hand it over to me.
Warehouse expert? You seem to be great in confidence.
"God of Warehouse" or what? (reference to crazy drama names)
Aren't you really into researching things?
The more I know you, the more I can't figure you out.
Supposedly the president's son, but interning, carrying boxes!
You find this kind of stuff as fun?
No. I'm doing such stuff only to do just like other people.
Just like them? You have a different identity, but hides it only to be just like other people?
No Jun Hyeok becoming Yeo Jin Gu!
What's with this Yeo Jin Gu? May as well be Yeojinjok! (A historical tribe name)
That's right. I would've liked even Yeojinjok.
That newcomer intern... We've seen him somewhere, right?
Where would it be?
I just don't remember where.
Where was it?
Not sure...
Well... May be he looks like some TV talent guys...
I sure have seen him somewhere.
But, doesn't his posture resemble somebody? The voice also is like that.
Not sure...
His voice is like Pak Hyo Sin's, I suppose. (Famous S.Korean singer)
There has got to be something.
He suddenly comes in as an intern, out of season.
The confidence to step up to do it whatever it is. Isn't it like he's from a royal family or something?
Well, I'm not sure I feel it.
Aren't the interns always full of energy at first?
Not so. Something is going on. No mistaking it. I can surely feel it.
Don't you know that my feeling is never wrong?
You've nicely gone wrong too!
Last time when the CEO had the fall, you said you got the feeling.
Didn't you say it couldn't be a pure accident?
I was wrong only in my investigation of it. My feeling had not gone wrong.
Team leader.
If you have such a good feel,
please handle at least your own matters well.
You have no ideas, and your reports always come last.
All that the HR office always says is that you are in danger, team leader.
Really?
You mean they're watching me? Really?
What do I do? I don't have any idea where I am.
Oh, look at you...
The navigation is malfunctioning so badly but you still wouldn't feel something's strange?
How would I know that? The roads all look the same.
In any case, what can you see in front for now? Nothing that you see?
In front?
What's this?
Aw, seriously.
What to do?
What now? What?
There's no washer fluid. Bird poop on the windshield.
What bird poops like this? I'm going insane.
That's why I asked to make sure beforehand,
if there were any warning lights.
Whatever!
First of all, make sure to get off the major road. Off the major road. We'll take it from there.
Should I?
I see.
You can't hang up the phone, okay?
What are you staring at?
Nothing.
Just wondering if you wouldn't be eating alone if I weren't there.
How come there's nobody around you?
How so? I'm so damn popular, you know.
Just about... quietly isolated, the way I feel.
You seriously... Whom do you see as isolated?
My popularity is truly superb. Superb, okay?
Ms. Na Jin A... Not eating alone today, it seems? Eat well!
I always like to eat alone, that's all.
Sure! I know.
That bastard, seriously!
Hey you... Can you see me for a bit?
I thought I had told you clearly.
What did I say about seeing your mug here by lunch time?
You think I'm funny?
You want to see where my patience ends?
You live for tomorrow, right? I'm one who lives only today!
He who lives tomorrow gets killed by him who lives today. You don't know it?
In short, eat the damn food and get going fast.
Don't be showing up back here.
This is the final warning, you see.
Try not listening to me this time also, and I swear, I'll spill the beans on you being a fake son!
Then it's all over, don't you know?
Director O, won't it be the same with you too?
What?
How am I the same? I am what, a fake son?
If you talk to them about me, it seems you'll get implicated too.
What?
Look at this fellow. Are you now threatening me or something?
Let me leave.
You won't stop right there?
So you won't stop there, huh? Stop!
I really don't have any patience. Stop right there. Stop. Stop. Stop!
This is the final warning. Stop there.
Fine, if so. Damn, just for once I'll take this.
You get out of the company, pronto by evening!
You know what I'm saying, right?
Ah, what's with that bloody punk... Eeeek, seriously!
K-Mart, it's a K-Mart.
You can't see what branch it is?
I can't see it clearly.
'Omo'... 'Omok'-something is written there.
Omokgyo, I think.
I found your location!
If it's Omokgyo, then it's in Yangcheon-gu.
How did you go all the way till there?
Completely in the opposite way to coming here.
What should I do?
In any case, coming here will be a bit hard.
Just go back home.
Even to home, how do I go?
I have no idea at all where I am.
Steady yourself, and for now... continue in the direction you are going now.
If you go down straight, for the Yanghwa bridge there should be a road to the right.
Then turn right.
Turn... Turn right?
Staff newbie, how does it feel? Having tried it, support work is no joke, right?
Doesn't it feel like you'll be doing this for ever?
It's not. It's doable stuff.
We must do this by end of day even if we die.
Aren't there 2 boxes outside? I'll go get them.
You're a newbie, so you do this.
No. I'll go get it. You can do this.
Oh no! Big trouble.
What next? What is the trouble?
Fuel-empty indicator came on.
What do I do? I don't see a gas station.
What do I do?
Just calm down. Once the indicator comes on, there should still be 5 liters of petrol left.
You can still go some 50 kilometers.
You can go home even two times!
Really?
Would I... really be able to return home safely?
You'll be able to.
Isn't there a Chinese restaurant with tasty sweet and sour pork that we were at, someday?
"Heavenly Palace", right?
It's enough if you get to that restaurant.
From there you can find your way home, right?
No... I really have no confidence.
How can a road-dummy like me find a way home?
Even after I asked not to worry? Didn't I say it will go fine?
I am suddenly reminded of that day. The day when I met you first.
-=1995. Then 22 years old=-
-= Then 20 years old. Then 22 years old.=-
Excuse me, I need to ask you something.
Yes. Please ask... the something.
Where's the French Department office here?
The French Department?
Over here, it's the College of Law.
Isn't French in the College of Humanities?
Way over there, the opposite building.
Is that so?
Thank you very much.
Seonbae. (Senior student or colleage)
Hello.
Oh, sure.
It's Engineering there.
That is the School of Arts.
Hello.
Earlier there...
Did you find the French Department?
Huh? Yes...
I did find the place.
It turned out to be of no use.
Why?
Today is the new students' orientation trip day.
As I was late, they had all left on the trip.
Oh, like that...
Where is it, the orientation location?
Sokcho in Gangwan province.
Really?
I was also about to go to Sokcho.
Sokcho is... where my home is.
It must be destiny! Let's go together.
Do you always get lost with directions?
I'm a bit of a serious road-dummy.
Even while joining High School, I ended up in a wrong school.
I guess it's still better than graduating from a wrong school!
Your name is...
No Bo Yeong.
My name is-
Gim Do Sang, right?
Looking at your short hair and the army camouflage clothes,
you surely just returned to school.
It's a Seoul accent, but sometimes it becomes a Gyeongsang-do accent,
so at least one of your parents is from Gyeongsang-do.
Seeing your long right finger nails, you like playing guitar.
Seeing the books on Intro to Law, it's not been long since you started bar exam preparations. Correct?
I mean... How can somebody like you be so clueless on road directions?
All the roads look the same to me.
But your family isn't in Sokcho, right?
It is there.
It sure feels it isn't so.
Earlier at the campus, as we got on the bus, you were checking the itinerary.
If your hometown was Sokcho, you would've been at the terminal often.
You would know ahead which bus to take.
It's not Sokcho, right?
But then why go from Seoul to Sokcho?
So then that day we saw the sea at Sokcho and came back, no?
Honey. I'm not in the mood to talk of such things.
I told you not to worry.
Go straight and take the last left turn once.
Then if you just stick to that road, on the right, you'll see "Heavenly Palace".
Now it will be all done.
- I'll be out of charge. - What to do?
What's it again?
Mobilephone battery dying.
Shall we hang up for now?
No, no. Don't. Don't hang up. If you do, what will I do?
Turn left. Turn left. Turn left...
Did you turn left?
No. I'm turning now.
Oh... What to do?
What's wrong? What?
What to do? I went past the left turn.
I've gone straight.
It's going straight to the expressway!
Oh, what should I do?
Expressway?
Getting on the expressway won't work.
Ah, I... What to do?
Hello...
Hello, hello!
What do I do?
Now I'm all finished. Finished!
Oooh, so cold.
Oh, so cold.
Why weren't you opening the door?
What brings you here?
How did you know I was here?
Looking at the map, it seemed you'd be somewhere near here.
By chance you... had any of my vodka?
Vodka?
It was here. I guess you never found it!
Now I can live.
Do you want to drink some?
When it's cold, this is the best.
You crazy? I should drive, you know.
When did you keep that in the car?
When I drive, I don't drink it. So don't worry.
But, why are you staying put here?
Aren't you going home?
I couldn't have gone.
I should've turned left. I missed it and went straight.
There is no U-turn either. If I go on, it's the expressway.
The fuel is also almost empty.
Hey... There's still 10 minutes more, it says. Plus...
If you couldn't do a left turn, a P-turn would do, you know.
You don't know of a P-turn?
P-turn?
Right... P-turn.
Turning left by 90 degree and turning right thrice by 270 degrees are the same, right?
Once you find a road to turn right into, like in the alphabet P, take right turns.
Then, it will be right away the street going to 'Heavenly Palace'.
I have never once had success with a P-turn.
To a road-dummy like me, it's like rat poison, I'd say.
Why not try it once?
If you try it and it doesn't work, then we can think of other options.
P-turn.
I know. I'll give it a go.
But...
Fine. I still have 10 minutes left.
In just 10 minutes, I guess I will be home and boasting about how valorous I was.
If not, before that... let this stop me!
Don't I have to help you tomorrow too?
Whatever. Don't worry.
That's not any perennial work.
Hey... You know, your names are a bit too many.
Name?
I don't have that many.
No Jun Hyeok, Hongburger, Hongberg, Yeo Jin Gu...
Tell me honestly. What's your real name?
Yeo Jin Gu.
Get serious... Yeo Jin Gu, the child actor, sure!
I'm telling this only to you, you see...
My real full name is Yeo Jin Gu.
Stop bullshitting me. This big sister will get angry.
Today I really just let it go, but tomorrow you'll really die!
While you live for tomorrow, I'm really one who lives only today.
The fellow living for tomorrow will really die at the hands of the fellow living today.
This is really the final warning. Really!
Letter P is etched in my mind. Letter P.
Mom!
Mom, are you all right?
I am... all right.
I got home, didn't I?
Hey, Yeo Jin Gu!
You go in ahead. I have something to discuss with the director.
Huh?
Oh, I see.
Even after I had given the final warning, it seems you came today too, in the end.
Like you want it this way.
You...
are a man.
You do have some charm.... Ha... From now on, let's just be friends. I do like tough guys like you.
Aw, you look cool. Is you father doing fine?
What is that about?
Really, you are just letting him come to the company to work?
Then what else to do? Really cut him loose?
Then what about us?
We should spoil everything we did?
Really this hurts my pride!
Shut the hell up!
No other way, you know. No way.
Then what can we do? Except to look on from the sidelines.
In 'Godfather', didn't Al Pacino say this?
Keep the friends close. Keep the enemies... well... close, I guess...
Aigoo, my head...
This way I'll end up with no hair...
-=Next Episode Preview=-
There will be the season's first snow, and it's the good news we have.
You don't know that eating fresh snow helps your wishes come true?
What's this Yeo Jin Gu about, this Yeo Jin Gu thing?
It's nice to be familiar. If there is anything difficult at the company, pass it on to me.
How can you be leisurely to this extent?
Is there anything that's fast?
There would be.
What is it?
It's about the intern, Yeo Jin Gu.
I'm sure he is of a royal family.
Hey what... What's wrong here?
Shall I take a look at the computer for you?
I will do it. I will do it.
Who else but Mr. Yeo Jin Gu. Come on fast and take a look.
Shall we meet? You will come at our door?
- Omo! - Want to hit the knee once?
You cross your arms and legs to climb up?
It's so cold. You are gonna get it.
It's snowing.
