Cunning Single Lady
N-Na Ae-Ae Ra?
Why did you come here... ?
You didn't hear about it? I'm the substitute.
Episode 8
Hey, are you crazy?
Do you want to start a rumor about our relationship?
I'm doing this because they told me to!
And the rumor isn't going to start just because of this shoot. If a rumor was going to start, it would have already!
Hey!
What?!
Only crime I have is accepting the Marketing Team Leader's plea to do this.
First of all, let's just shoot this and afterwards, you can do whatever with your CEO status!
And also, do it with confidence. With confidence.
Don't you have any confidence?
You shouldn't be talking.
Hey, you, too...
You're not in a place to criticize me.
With confidence! With confidence!
You're the one who should do it with confidence.
Okay. Superman's girlfriend who's next to him.
More of a shocked expression!
You're completely shocked at how innovative it is.
Okay... Okay.
And now... our Superman...
More like a hero!
More overflowing with confidence! Now...
Confidence!
Energy! Energy!
Okay, this look is great.
You two seem like a 'match made in heaven' as acting partners!
It doesn't seem like it's the first time you guys are working together.
Ah, here...
Now, enough with this concept.
A little more.
Now, okay. You two,
get closer to each other.
More! More!
Really..
Stick together!
After you stick together,
raise one hand over your head
and make a heart! A heart!
Do it.
Now, look at each other. Heart... shoot, shoot, shoot.
Now, together.
Get closer!
You guys are supposed to be in love!
After sticking together,
put one arm up and make a heart!
Okay, okay. Heart.
Smile! Smile! That's right
Will you smile a bit?
So, we can end this quickly.
Who should be saying that?
Even a nonexistent affection will grow at this rate.
Hey, this is my place.
If you're going to insist on that, my place was over there!
Huh?
We're going to rest for a while.
Excuse me.
Yes. I'm dying.
I want the real Superman to come and take me out of here.
Then, should I stop by on the way from the company?
With some food..
No. Don't come. N..never.
Ah, yes.
I heard the model was changed.
I, too... just got the report.
That's why it's more painful.
I'm never doing this again.
Okay.
Then, work hard, and see you tomorrow!
Yes. -Yes.
If such station occurred , you should've reported that to me first!
I'm sorry.
I'm just about average. What is he talking about?
Why does she keep glancing at me?
Anyway, she should do as she's told so we can hurry up and go home.
Anyhow, she loves taking pictures tremendously.
The two of them were like this, like this.
Like that, and like that!
The concept's like that.
The dinner date with the CEO was Na Ae Ra.
And the CF shoot with the CEO is Na Ae Ra.
At this rate, the CEO and Na Ae Ra are going to be best friends!
Wait, but if she shoots the CF, is she getting paid for that?
How much is she getting paid? I'm curious.
Are you that curious about that?
She's not even a professional model, so how much would she get?
She should be grateful to grab that chance as an intern!
Are you still shooting?
I am starving to death. They didn't even give me dinner.
The text message that not even Superman can catch!
D&T Soft Ventures will catch it for you!
Yes.
Wow! D&T!
Okay, that pose is great. Keep that pose.
Since we are late, let's finish up quickly.
Ok, let's start the fan!
Ah, the wind is nice!
Hey! Over there!
He is bleeding a lot.
What should we do? Look at the blood..
Is he okay?
Jeong Woo! Jeong Woo!

What should I do... ?
Is the shooting already over?
We stopped it. The CEO got into an accident during the shooting.
Huh?
Because of a mild concussion, he's lost consciousness.
We'll have to wait a while for the results.
Then.
You can leave now. I'll stay.
No. He's like this because of me, so I'll stay.
Please bring the CEO's clothes from his house.
Okay. Then I'll come back tomorrow morning.
Large size? Please wait!
She had a miscarriage.
You can go in.
Ae Ra...
What? Why are you telling me now?
You weren't answering your phone...
How is he?
He still hasn't regained consciousness.
Please contact Secretary Gil. Tell him that I'm going now.
Secretary Gil is not at the hospital.
Na Ae Ra, the employee that did the shooting together, is with him at the hospital now.
Who?
Director...
How is the CEO... doing?
He's still unconscious...
I heard that you stayed here overnight.
Yes..
I'm sorry for making you worry.
It's not your fault,
so you can leave now.
I want to see him regain consciousness...
Go and work.
I'll stay here now.
Don't worry.
You must be tired. Take my car.
Let's go.
No. I'll be leaving.
Yes. Good bye.
Are you awake?
This is the hospital.
How long has it been?
It's a relief.
I was worried because you were unconscious all night.
Were you here watching over me all night?
It's such a relief
that you woke up.
I will park the car at the entrance.
Currently, D&T Software,
due to the hit of the new function CEO Cha Jeong Woo developed,
it looks like they will rise over their existing stock price of one billion.
In the near future, we predict that the price will go up.
From the existing Dontalk,
you can think that it became complete with the new function.
Please move around (be innovative) without stuttering.
The people that end up in crisis are those who usually think about everything before acting.
The world changes so quickly, even while you're collecting your thoughts.
Your analysis falls behind.
The purpose of your planning is not to predict but to take action.
The more the situation seems to be uncertain, let's focus on the present rather than the future.
Those are my thoughts.
There are a lot of costs involved, not just in (software)research and development, but in user research as well.
I know. But I'm against making profits just from sales.
First, the things that the consumers want...
I can't ignore that, and it's a basic fundamental of marketing.
You keep saying marketing.
In the future, I'm going to combine all the departments, so designer, engineer, and marketer can develop the product together.
That's how they won't try to use their specialties to stand out, thus we won't be wasting time.
Not wasting time will bring money to the company.
Why do you work with me when our opinions never match?
You have the ability to protect me and most importantly, I can trust you.
You have a talent at making someone feel weak, suddenly.
We're good partners.
How's your schedule today?
Hoobaenim.
The 'Public Relations' list that you've organized.
Oh, that. I did that.
Wipe it. So dirty.
Sunbaenim,
can I say something impudent to you?
Huh?
Because it's company's supplies, it seems you're being wasteful.
What?
Thoughts like "Since it's not mine, it'll be okay if it's just me,"
seems to be the main contributor to the deteriorating company establishment.
To be honest, you use a lot of glue and paper,
and you always print in color. I don't think you should do that.
Na Ae Ra.
Director.
That's a good attitude.
I feel guilty as well, when I think about it.
I'll be careful now, since I heard what you said.
I didn't mean it like that..
It's just that... I was thinking that I was the 'owner' of this company...
I wouldn't have to worry if I only had employees like you.
Today, in preparation to launch the deals on luxury items,
I have a meeting with the contracting party.
I'll assist you.
Since it's something I've been continuously working on, I've been preparing a lot...
No.
When I watched you at the interview last time... Ae Ra?
Yes?
You have so many shopping coordinator experiences, how about you take charge of this?
You seem to be the perfect person.
T...that... that's a good idea.
Then you should do that.
Ae Ra, let's go.
Subtitles brought to you by The Foxy Team @ Viki
I'm this kind of person.
I already have the approval of the upper management.
You're that happy after being complimented by the Director?
I have met someone that thinks of the company in the same caring way.
I'm glad to meet them and it makes me feel good on the inside.
When did she become acquainted with the Director?
I know...
This is S/S's new line.
The design trend is not to emboss the logos,
rather than using the buckle to expose the logo,
the products with patterns are very popular.
I see.
This is the first time introducing deals in luxury products. We're thinking of going with the popular ones from the new products
What do you think, Ms. Ae Ra?
That...
Why?
The VIP clients that purchase luxury purses every new season,
they stray away from the products where logos are visible. But our social network clients consists of
frugal people who make this purchase as a big splurge.
Those clients prefer the products where the logos are visible.
How about we mix both?
Should we?
Please pick out the ones that our employee recommends.
Yes.
Thanks to you, we got done with our work quickly. How nice!
Thanks for giving me a chance.
Oh, since we came out, can you help me with something personal?
What?
Who are you going to give the gift to?
I don't know.. He's hard to describe in one word.
Perhaps, is it that person you mentioned before? At the rooftop?
Then I'll have to shop for it diligently.
How about this?
You said he's boring, brusque, and only knows about work.
Then he probably gives an authoritative and hard impression.
A paisley pattern will give a softer impression.
You have a good memory.
I once met a guy like that.
Really?
Please wrap this up for me.
Yes.
By any chance,
do you know the meaning behind a woman giving a man a tie as a gift?
Is there such a thing?
It means "I want to have you."
Oh my.
Then are you going to confess with the tie?
Fighting!
If it's okay, can I order?
Yes.
Give me the one that I always eat.
Yes. I understand.
Does it suit your tastes?
Yes. I like this kind of style.
Eat up.
Yes.
Ms. Ae Ra, maybe because you've worked at many places,
you seem to adjust quickly and are also quick to build friendly relations.
No, when you go from one place (work) to the other,
you have to work by giving up your liver and gall bladder. (swallowing your pride)
You end up acquiring ability to build friendly relations.
When I saw you at the interview, it seems like you've worked a lot of difficult jobs, but how is our company?
After working here, do you find it okay?
Of course! I have my own desk,
ID card and a business card.
It's the more 'improved me' from the past.
It's stable, too.
Then since you have a stable job,
you can slowly prepare yourself for a marriage.
After failing once,
it isn't easy to take on the challenge again.
Your wounds appear to go quite deep.
What divorce is there without wounds?
On the outside, I may appear to be smiling,
but on the inside, I'm crying.
They say that couples become mortal enemies after a divorce,
Ae Ra, how do you feel?
Are you like that, too?
We certainly were, but
recently something bad happened to him.
And although he was someone I really hated,
after seeing him experience harm,
I felt badly for him.
I'm not sure
exactly what this emotion is.
It's probably just sympathy.
Don't try to read too much into it.
Yes, Mother.
Yes, I understand.
I'll be right there.
Please let her know that I had to leave first due to an issue at home.
After I make a decision, I don't spend time regretting it.
Rather, I make a bigger effort, proving that I made the right decision.
Because the past is of no use.
Yes.
Our conversation has suddenly become too dark.
Thanks for helping me pick out a gift and for eating with me today.
Not at all. I'm the one who got a meal out of it.
I'll treat next time I get my paycheck.
Although it won't be this expensive.
How did you come here?
You have to go to Goryeong with me.
My father... is critical.
I think I'm going to be late.
Don't worry about me and go to bed first, Min Yeong.
While we were married, I depended on him a lot... your father.
He was so good to me.
But why so suddenly?
Whenever my business wouldn't go well and fail,
it took a lot out of him, too.
I may have even caused him to get ill.
Is it going to break by doing that?
Why does he want to raise fish in a perfectly good pot?
In any case, now that he's older, even the dementia he gets is strange.
Mother-in-law, I guess we'll have to make rice in an electric rice cooker then?
Ay!
Whatever.
Truthfully,
he collapsed from a stroke 3 years ago.
And after that, he's mostly been bedridden.
Then are you saying he's been unconscious for three years?
Although it wasn't often, he has recognized me.
And whenever he did, he asked for you.
Me?
That's why I'm bringing you there like this now.
Noona!
Father is...
Father...
Aigoo, honey...
Honey!
Aigoo, what am I to do?
Aigoo!
Fa... Father. -Jeong Woo's father!
Father!
Jeong Woo,
if you take the easy road because it's too difficult, a dream will always remain just a dream.
In ten years, or twenty years,
I believe that all these hardships will become fond memories.
I'll wait and see that it happens. So please, always follow your dreams.
Father.
Because of me... because of me...
Father!
Father.
CEO Cha had a death in the family?
Filial duty is only possible when a parent is alive.
It's too late after a parent has died.
You shouldn't have bothered.
I'm talking about Robert Kim.
Do you think CEO Cha is going to make you happy?
CEO Cha won't be able to.
A child like Robert Kim is someone who will live for you.
Why don't you know that?
That's the difference between you and me.
You think that money can buy happiness.
Shouldn't you have figured out that that's not true by now?
I don't want my daughter making such an effort
for someone else's happiness.
You don't know
how exhausting of a job it is.
That's also happiness.
Although you may not know it.
The story book of the 'Fairy and the Wood Cutter'...
I'm the wood cutter.
So I can't give you my children.
Because I don't want you to fly away with the kids.
I understand.
When you return to work tomorrow, please submit your reason for missing work.
Team Leader,
Na Ae Ra is taking the day off today for a personal matter.
Personal leave?
She didn't tell me the reason, just that it's a family matter.
She has two client meetings scheduled, too. Does she even think or not?
Unbelievable.
She really isn't professional.
Her state of mind is rotten!
Nothing can be done about it.
You and I... could give it a try.
Yes, Team Leader.
Oh! CEO's father's death!
Yes, I apologize.
I'll see you tomorrow.
The client that Na Ae Ra was supposed to see today
must be totally upset.
But the CEO, he said that he won't accept his employees' visits or money,
is it okay to be going there like this?
While you're all working at the company, you may work
for your own satisfaction and personal goals, but
I don't think that anything comes before the life and death of a human being.
A person existed before business.
Did business exist before a person?
Let's put everything aside, and all share in the grief.
When Jeong Woo couldn't make it, she split up saying she couldn't live with him any longer.
But now that Jeong Woo is successful, look at her running to his side.
She never came by while Father was ill.
That's what I mean.
But still, it was fortunate that they broke up early.
What would have happened if they had had a child?
But speaking of which, why did Ae Ra go there?
When the children broke up, her mother-in-law treated her like such an enemy.
Why did she go? Of course, she should have gone.
Out of basic human respect, she should pay her respects for her ex-father-in-law's death.
But still, her father-in-law
was so thoughtful to our Ae Ra.
Aigoo. She used to bad mouth her to her face saying how her son, who passed the bar exam could marry a daughter
of a soup and rice restaurant . What is she going to say now?
Wow, so this is the problem with getting divorced.
You can't go and you can't not go.
I don't want to worry about this, so I don't plan to get divorced.
This is a life lesson. A life lesson.
First, just get married!
You're about to turn forty and I'm still living with you!
Aigoo, there's no other enemy like that.
Why give the child a complex?
The phone has been turned off.
I can't reach Na Ae Ra.
Just in case, I texted her to come, even if it's late.
Ms. Na Ae Ra is very private.
Get out. I'll go park.
Ae Ra?
Na Ae Ra, what are you doing here?
You came?
The personal matter... was this?
That...
I didn't see you like that, but you're in a fox crowd.
The interns these days are fast as LTE.
You wanted to come first without anyone knowing, and put your stake in the CEO, didn't you?
Was that it, Ae Ra?
Ye...yes.
Look here, Na Ae Ra.
You have a cunning side to you!
First, let's pay our respects and talk later.
Did you not see my text?
Ah, my battery ran out so my phone died.
But how did you know to come here?
Please give us some more pig's head's meat!
Yes!
I'll do it. Keep doing this.
I really don't like her.
Team Leader, isn't she going too far?
She is going too far, way overboard.
She doesn't do the work she's assigned, but instead she finds all sorts of sly ways to become an official worker at the company.
She's so despicable that I can't stand her.
She probably pretended and told me to not waste tissue paper because it was in front of the Director.
Acting like she's nice, acting like she cares...
She's an expert at acting.
No, she's not. That's...
Na Ae Ra gives her all with everything she does.
She doesn't refuse dirty work and she does it automatically with confidence.
With sincerity.
Well, Na Ae Ra is quite caring. And she's thoughtful.
She's kissing his ass!
She acts like she's not interested, but behind people's backs, she's up to something.
I want to cook something up, too.
When the colleague is spurting like that I should spurt, too.
Me, I'm going to go and kiss his ass!
I just got dissed, right?
Yes, but you did chew Ae Ra out.
I know, right?
I was chewing Ae Ra out, but why would he get mad?
He must like her!
This won't do.
Everyone go put on an apron. Hurry.
Uh, right now?
Then, do you want to do it next year?
Anyway, it's so tiring just because the wrong intern was hired.
Intern?
Why are you so dirty?
What's the matter, Sister-in-law?
Sister-in-law? What Sister-in-law?
If you split up, we become strangers.
What are you scheming?
Are you jealous because he's successful after breaking up?
Or if not, are you here to try and pick up some crumbs?
I don't understand what you are saying.
Aren't there any other companies besides our Jeong Woo's company?
How dare you crawl in there?
That is...
Your dark intentions really make my skin crawl.
I am asking you for a favor, but
don't ever appear in front of our Jeong Woo again.
Quit immediately. If not...
Stop it.
Jeong Woo, is it something I should let pass?
Don't you even have a heart?
Who was the reason why Father collapsed?`
I am going there now. Let's meet there.
You don't have to come, Father.
I will leave now.
It's a time of mourning, she shouldn't be like that.
Nothing bad happened.
Yes.
I am sorry.
For letting you hear that kind of thing, even though you came all the way here for my sake.
Of course, I should come.
Go back to Seoul now.
The company's employees are watching, too.
But...
what did she mean by Father collapsing because of me?
The truth is...
it's because of me.
After hearing about the divorce,
he collapsed that day.
Director.
I guess all of you came down.
Of course, Director.
Our team came down as soon as we heard the news.
We are all saddened by this event.
You worked hard coming this long way.
Where is CEO?
He was here just a bit earlier.
I will go find him.
If you've paid your respects, you can head back home.
You have to go to work tomorrow.
Can we do that?
Yes.
Then we will head back home first.
Where is Na Ae Ra and what is she doing?
Isn't it enough for her to come alone? Is she planning to stay back alone?
Seriously.
I understand Sister-in-law being like that.
She would hate me.
In any case, thank you for coming.
No.
Thank you for calling me.
Father-in-law was someone precious to me.
I didn't bow to him for my religious reason.
I am sorry.
It is okay.
Thank you for coming even though you are busy.
Jeong Woo, who is working at your company?
I am Guk Yeo Jin. I work together with CEO Cha.
Oh, you are the daughter of the investor who invested in Jeong Woo's company.
Right?
Jeong Woo, you should have introduced us earlier.
She has a pretty face and a kind heart as well.
I heard that our Jeong Woo
owes you a lot.
I heard that you helped him a lot since the company startup.
When can we repay your kindness?
♫ What do I do?
♫ You are the reason I live.
By the way, I heard you're still single? ♫ But now what do I do?
♫ Why is it that
♫ my heart still can't believe our farewell?
♫ What do I do?
♫ You are the reason I live.
♫ But now what do I do?
Why are you like this? Seriously!
I said "let's go."
Do you like Cha Jeong Woo?
You aren't going to answer? I am asking you if you like Cha Jeong Woo.
Look here, Guk!
Today, I'm so extremely exhausted and in pain,
so don't provoke me.
So why are you exhausting yourself and getting cursed at for doing something no one asked you to do?
I am the one who gets cursed and has a hard time.
It isn't something for you to mind about.
I hate it.
I'm going crazy because it bothers me.
Yeah, you got here a bit earlier, and
you probably helped out because you couldn't just do nothing.
Because you are that kind of person.
But why are you being so mindful of everyone as if you committed some crime?
Guk Seung Hyun. - I told you to be confident, didn't I?
That looks more like you, Na Ae Ra.
Why do you swallow your pride, and mind everyone's moods?
If I see you like that...
Having to look at that ..
Guk Seung Hyeon! Na Ae Ra!
Come quickly. Let's go.
Yes. I'll be there.
It seemed as though, you put your heart and soul into it...
Why don't you put that much effort into company work, too?
You said that there was an important matter with your family.
Is the CEO your family?
How can that be?
I finished taking care of my personal business, and
I took off urgently after hearing the news, but
I arrived just a little bit earlier than you.
Anyway, everyone has worked hard.
Especially, Na Ae Ra. Seeing you put forth all your effort,
I saw it for the first time since you joined the company.
It's your daughter-in-law's coffee that you like so much.
I wanted to make you 2..2..2..., but
I'm sorry. Today it's coffee packets.
Father-in-law, next time I will 2..2..2...
and make it deliciously for you.
