Baby Faced Beauty
Episode 19
Let go!
Have you lost your mind?
What do you think you're doing?
I can't let you go.
I won't let you go no matter what.
I can't ever give up on you no matter what happens.
Mr. Choi Jinuk!
You've overstepped your bounds.
I've always known that you were a rude person,
but you really crossed the line today.
What were you thinking?
This is an official venue of The Style.
How can an employee barge into an official venue
and cause such a scene?
So you're saying we should keep our private life and work life separate...
But what about you?
You brought an employee to an official work event in this skimpy outfit.
And you even had her dance with you.
You have no right to lecture me.
How dare you?
Mr. Ji.
What? Are you going to take a swing at me?
Mr. Ji.
Please stop, Choi Jinuk. Please.
Mr. Ji.
What's going on? Mr. Ji.
Are you drunk, Jinuk? What's the matter with you?
Come here.
- Come to your senses. - Let go.
- Come on. - Let go of me!
Let's go, Soyeong.
This is why you're not the one.
What?
You're a child.
An immature little baby.
How can you follow me here and cause a scene?
Last time, I excused myself.
This time, it's your turn to excuse yourself.
Soyeong.
I'm not coming with you anymore.
You can go alone.
Wait. Wait. Soyeong.
Lee Soyeong! Soyeong!
Let's go.
Lee Soyeong!
I'll get going now.
I'll drop you off.
No. I'm going alone.
Good night.
This is why you're not the one.
You're a child.
An immature little baby.
Let's go, Soyeong.
Lee Soyeong! Soyeong!
Did you have an errand to run, sir?
Have you been waiting for me?
It's nothing urgent.
Fine then.
Sir. Sir.
Couldn't I get my pay a little earlier this month?
I have something urgent going on.
Have you come across another amazing deal?
Is someone giving you winning lottery numbers?
How did you know?
This is classified information.
There's a machine that identifies winning lottery numbers.
All you need to do is invest $100 per week.
Good grief.
Does your daughter know?
Pardon?
Does your daughter know what a loser you are?
But then again, like father like daughter, right?
What are you trying to say?
If you don't want to give me my pay early, that's fine.
But don't talk about my daughter like that.
Why? Why can't I?
Your daughter's about to ruin my son's life.
Pardon?
They say it's a small world, but this is just absurd.
Darn it.
I don't get it. You need to explain.
The pathetic younger guy running after your daughter
happens to be my son!
Pardon?
Hello?
This is Jinuk's father.
I don't feel like explaining. Just come over.
Come get your father! And hurry!
- Pardon? - Soyeong. Soyeong.
Soyeong! This is so unfair.
Where does he think he is?
Jeez.
Some of the most successful people are from poor families.
Just because the parent is a loser doesn't make the child a loser too.
Cattle breed cattle and horses breed horses.
Seeing how you are,
I have an idea of what your daughter's like.
What? Cattle?
Fine. I'm a cow.
I don't care that you're the owner.
So you made some money selling pork hocks, eh?
But you don't have the right to insult my daughter.
How dare you?
- Come here. - Where do you think you are?
How old are you, anyway?
- Hey! - Stop it, Mr. Lee.
What's going on?
Who the hell are you?
Oh, you must be that high and mighty son.
Come here. Come here!
Let me take a good look at you.
- You think you're that great? - What do you think you're doing?
Let go!
How dare you touch my son.
Do you think your son's great?
Well, my daughter Soyeong's great, too.
Soyeong? Lee Soyeong?
Wait a minute.
Dad!
Soyeong. My beautiful daughter is here.
My dear Soyeong. My dear Soyeong.
Dad. Dad.
Thank goodness you're here.
Take him away.
Let's go, dad.
Dad, please get up.
- Dad. - My dear daughter.
You poor thing. I'm sorry I'm such a loser.
Take a good look at him.
He's the father of that young lady you're crazy about.
If my daughter says we need to go, I will.
Please, dad. Dad. Please...
- Let me help. - No.
I'll do it.
Dad.
Hey!
Wake up, dad.
Please, dad.
Please call me if I need to pay you for any damages.
I'm so sorry about the trouble.
Why didn't you tell me sooner?
What?
Why didn't you tell me Soyeong's dad works for you?
Why did you keep it to yourself?
What?
Are you happy now that Soyeong's hurt?
Are you still taking her side?
Jeez.
Your shoes, dad.
You don't need that lanky buffoon.
- That tall numskull... - Be careful.
My dear wife.
You good-for-nothing guy. You're such a jerk.
What did you do this time?
How dare you come home like this?
Good-for-nothing jerk!
You're the bane of my life.
Why won't you ever change?
Why don't you ever get better?
Jerk!
You're the bane of my life!
[Choi Jinuk]
Now you know.
If I were the only problem, I wouldn't have given up on you.
I would've begged and pleaded with your father.
But there's nothing I can do about my dad.
No matter how hard I try, I can't change him.
My mom and dad have had a hard life.
I can't have them suffer more pain because of me.
Plus, you're not even living with your parents.
You and your dad could grow further apart because of me.
I don't want that to happen...
So let's stop now.
And all the heartache that I caused you...
I'm sorry.
Bye.
Good night.
This is the last time I'm sending you off like this.
I'm sorry for causing trouble at an official company event.
It was wrong of me, especially as an employee of The Style.
[Letter of Resignation]
I'm taking responsibility for my actions.
I'll only be working here until you find a replacement.
I won't cause the company any more problems.
And now, I'm talking to you
not as an employee but as man to man.
I've said this a number of times,
but let me make this very clear.
Leave my woman alone.
Then let me tell you this not as the CEO, but man to man.
Choi Jinuk, mind your own business.
Who I like and who I date
is my business.
You can go now.
Lee Soyeong is my woman.
I'm warning you.
I won't just sit and watch anymore.
Well, hello! How are you?
Seula? She's fine.
Yes, yes.
Pardon? You said Lupani?
Lupani?
A long evening gown?
What about my dress?
I'm sorry, but I can't wear it.
Pardon?
As you know, Lupani doesn't provide their jewelry to just anyone.
This is a once-in-a lifetime opportunity for me.
That's why to match this premium jewelry,
I'd like a long dress.
I did think of asking Ms. Lee Soyeong to make the dress,
but from what I've found out, you don't have much experience.
And you're not a full-timer yet.
So I decided to give all of you another chance.
- Alright. - Alright.
You won't change your mind at the last minute again, will you?
Of course not.
There's not enough time to go back and forth anyway.
We've assigned a piece of jewelry to each of you.
We ask Ms. Kang Yunseo for a gown that will go with the earrings.
To Ms. Lee Soyeong, the necklace,
and to Design Team 5, the ring.
- Ring? - Ring?
We will look over the design sketches and fabric tomorrow.
And now please take a look at the jewelry you're assigned.
- Wow. - Look at this rock.
How many carats do you think this is?
We lost the previous challenge because
our minidress lacked originality.
That wasn't the only problem. It was way too short.
That's right.
Do you have a plan for this challenge?
Of course.
The concept for the long dress
will be elegance and uniqueness.
It will have a graceful silhouette that brings out the feminine,
but the design itself will be very unique.
What do you think? How do you feel?
It's all very nice, I suppose.
How do you always manage to come up with such novel ideas?
I have a muse who is a truly endless source of inspiration.
Mr. Kim!
He's freaking me out.
Hey!
I'm done.
I do like flashy outfits,
but this could very well look like a stage costume.
Pardon?
In any case, give it a go.
Of course. Please rest assured.
Your design is conceptually very similar to the last one.
I can see why you may think that,
but I beg to differ.
What do you mean?
As with the minidress,
I wanted to make it cute and lovely.
I focused on you when I designed the minidress,
this time,
I created a design to suit Jina.
Jina?
Kim Jina, the character I played?
Yes. The character for which you'll be honored
as the best actress at the film festival.
That character was my focus.
This dress will be very beautiful and sweet.
Ms. Lee Soyeong?
Aren't you supposed to make a dress that will highlight the necklace?
Yes, that's right.
But the neck is all covered up.
Am I supposed to wear the necklace over the dress?
What were you thinking?
That's right. The necklace will go over the dress.
As with the minidress,
my design concept was sexiness.
Many people equate being revealing with sexy,
but I thought about how you could be sexy without being revealing.
That was the inspiration for this design.
That's why I chose this nude fabric, which is similar to your skin tone.
I expect this dress to look unique and glamorous.
See you at the fitting.
I look forward to it, Ms. Lee Soyeong.
To what do I owe this honor?
There's something you need to help me with.
What is it?
You said you're close to Jang Seonju's manager.
I'll compensate you for your trouble.
Oh! Oh...
How are you?
What are you doing over here?
Um...
What your father's doing isn't right.
If he cared about you, he should know that we care about Soyeong too.
Don't make it harder for Soyeong. Just go.
It'll be harder for Soyeong if you keep coming like this.
Just forget about her,
and do as your father says.
I can't.
Soyeong will be more hurt if I just walk away.
Truthfully, it's me who won't be able to bear it.
It'll take some time,
but I'll persuade my father.
Please have faith in me.
No. I'd rather Soyeong marry someone from a poor family
than subject her to this kind of treatment.
There must be a family somewhere that will appreciate her.
And I don't want to see your face,
so just go.
I can't give Soyeong up.
I won't back down until my father
changes his mind.
Please trust me.
Hello?
Yes, Ms. Chae.
What's going on?
Why is Jang Seonju wearing a dress that's conceptually similar to mine?
Pardon? What are you talking about?
Don't you ever surf the Internet?
Pardon?
What is it?
What's wrong?
Fashionista Jang Seonju
wears a necklace over an eye-catching beige dress.
How can this be?
Rats.
It's not an exact copy, but it's the same concept.
What a bummer.
Ms. Lee, don't lose hope.
How can you tell her to keep her hopes up at a time like this?
What are you doing?
I have to make another dress.
You only have a few hours.
You can't just whip something up
like the time you cut up a tent.
Plus, you don't have another design idea.
As expected, Ms. Lee is amazing.
Bravo!
I don't believe this.
Okay, you make clothes.
I'll make our love happen
by chopping up pork hocks.
What's going on?
Dad, I'm sorry.
Is that you, Jinuk?
Have you lost your mind?
Let me out right now!
I'm really sorry,
but there's something I have to tell you.
You have to hear me out.
It's very important.
What?
I didn't want to do this to you,
but we've never really had any heart-to-heart talks.
I'd say a few words
and you'd yell at me,
swinging pork hock at me while you're at it.
In any case, please forgive me.
- This is what I have to say. - You'll get it from me.
Ow, ow. My blood pressure...
Okay, dad. I won't beat around the bush.
I'll be really good to you,
so please be nice to Soyeong.
I knew it.
It's exactly as I expected.
Despite your opposition,
I can get you to turn around if I put in a bit of effort.
What?
I could elope with her and get a marriage registration,
or if that doesn't work, I could get her pregnant.
Elope? Pregnant?
How dare you even say such things?
Open the door! Open this door right now!
Hang on, dad.
I'm not done yet.
I can't believe I have a son like you.
Good grief.
In any case, I'd rather not resort to such drastic measures.
I'll make you come around
by being very good to you.
You're being good to me by locking me up like this?
I'm forced to do this because I need you to listen to me.
In any case, I'll do something nice for you every single day.
Dad, I love you.
I love you.
And one more thing...
The door's open now.
My goodness.
Let's get started.
Where's Ms. Lee Soyeong?
Has she given up?
Why should she come?
I'm not wearing her dress.
Let's start.
Should we start with Design Team 5?
Yes. This way.
I love it.
The details are wonderful.
It's just like something my character Jina would wear herself.
I knew it would look good on you.
Thank you, Yunseo.
So we have a winner.
I'm sorry I'm late.
Ms. Lee Soyeong.
I'll start the presentation.
After I got your call earlier, I made a new dress.
I kept my focus on the necklace.
When you open a box like this,
the necklace is sitting on dark velvet.
It's arranged to make the necklace stand out.
But the most beautiful fabric in the world
is a woman's skin.
I made a feminine dress in midnight blue
to highlight your beautiful skin.
You really made this in just a few hours?
Yes.
But all these beads and lace...
They're pretty.
I like it.
How did she get all that done in such a short amount of time?
I can't believe what I'm seeing.
It's not like she has eight arms.
I know.
Shall I try it on?
Sure.
Give me the necklace.
Hold on. Hold on.
I think I made a mistake.
Hold on. I'm sorry.
Hang on.
Are you out of your mind?
Is this some kind of experimental art?
The lace was so pretty.
I realized the moment you came out with the dress
that it was too much.
But still... She spent half a day on it.
How do you expect me to wear such a plain dress?
Are you out of your mind?
A famous foreign celebrity said that before going out,
take off one accessory from your outfit.
Less is better than more.
The necklace is more than enough.
The thing that should shine on the red carpet
is not my dress, but the necklace.
But I really think that the real focus
should be neither my dress nor the necklace.
It should be you.
That's why I took off the lace and beads.
Please try the necklace.
Wow. It's amazing.
I didn't know just how great the whole look was
until she put on the necklace.
Wow, Good, good, good. Very good.
Good job, everyone.
As for the result, you can check on the day of, via TV or Internet.
So long.
Hi. Hyeon.
Ms. Lee!
Hyeon.
What brings you here?
Did you miss me?
I have a favor to ask you.
What is it?
[Learning with Your Mom: Button Art!]
- Hyeon, scissors. - Okay!
Be careful.
Next.
Here.
You're good at this.
Piece of cake.
Come on. Just try it.
Tada.
It's so pretty.
We finished first!
Good job.
Kiss!
Good job.
It's dad. Hi, dad!
To match Ms. Lee Soyeong's dress, they've already planned
her hairstyle and makeup.
Given how far it has come,
there's only one option.
One option?
Force her to wear my dress or something?
We'll hide the necklace for just a short while.
What?
The dress was designed specifically for the necklace.
Without the necklace, Ms. Chae won't be able to wear Ms. Lee's dress.
She'll have to wear yours.
I'll deal with those security personnel.
We'll hide the necklace right before she goes out on the red carpet,
then return it safely.
Ms. Chae and her staff will want to keep it quiet,
because it'll be trouble if anyone finds out.
If you give me the green light...
That's enough.
Pardon?
I'll pretend I didn't hear what you just had to say.
Don't mention anything so outlandish ever again.
I won't.
[Transfer Appointment Ko Sejong, Head, Product Planning Team]
[Appointed as a regular staffer Sales Department, The Style China Plant]
What?
Director Hyeon, please help me.
With Paul Jean,
the Ilseong Plant, and Mr. Heo,
it was me who did all the dirty work for your sake.
You can't do this to me.
You should have known your place.
Pardon?
I heard you're going around saying you're the chosen one at The Style.
Is that why you pocketed your team's budget?
And how much did you get from Jang Seonju's manager?
Director Hyeon.
If this is how you're going to be,
I might get funny ideas.
What? What is this?
Are you blackmailing me?
Look at who the holder of this bank account is.
It says here, "Ko Sejong."
You did all this alone.
The Ilseong Plant and Mr. Heo incidents were all your doing.
You'd say I was just looking the other way.
Is this the thanks I get?
What are you talking about?
I did all those things because you told me to.
Who, me?
Come on, Mr. Ko.
Don't be ridiculous.
How could you...
How can you...
So get out of here.
How dare you come in drunk and act like this?
What?
Hi, dad.
Hang on.
Hey!
Hold on. Let me just wipe this table.
Hang on. One more.
[I love you, dad]
He's out of his mind.
Dad.
- This looks good. - Pork hocks are served.
Here are the onions and lettuce, too.
Enjoy.
- Thank you. - You're very welcome.
Welcome.
This way, please.
Ms. Chae Seula said she'd wear Ms. Lee Soyeong's dress...
Said that in her interview?
Thanks for letting me know.
Yes. Let's have coffee sometime.
Without the necklace, Ms. Chae won't be able to wear Ms. Lee's dress.
She'll have to wear yours.
Keep Chae Seula from wearing Lee Soyeong's dress.
You said you could do it.
Are you telling me to hide the necklace?
I know you're going through a rough patch.
I'll pay you whatever you need,
but don't tell my mom.
I'll be indebted to you.
And I'll talk to mom about your transfer
and keep it from happening.
You have my word.
Of course.
Please rest assured.
Thank you.
Keep Chae Seula from wearing Lee Soyeong's dress.
Welcome to the 23rd Haemaru Film Festival.
The competition to be the most dazzling presence on the red carpet
is fierce indeed.
At this very moment,
another actress is about to grace the red carpet.
Who can it be?
It's Chae Seula!
- Rats. - Rats.
Ms. Chae!
You look so beautiful.
Please look this way.
It is unfortunate, but a contest is a contest.
Ms. Lee, you did your best.
Yes.
Mr. Kim, you too.
Ms. Chae Seula, the leading lady of the movie "For Dorothy,"
has donned a white strapless gown for today's event.
She is a sight to behold.
The sweet and elegant silhouette is gorgeous.
She's wearing no accessories
except a pair of earrings
to pull off a clean and simple look.
She looks like an angel right off the silver screen.
[Ms. Kang Yunseo!]
[I decided not to steal the necklace after all, because I can get a lot more from you!]
I had the road manager do it,
but I guess he realized you were behind it.
What?
The necklace was safely returned,
and everything had gone smoothly...
Why weren't you more careful?
I'm sorry.
I'll take care of this.
Please get out.
And also...
About my transfer...
You bring that up now?
Take care of this first!
Of course.
Choi Jinuk Let's have a drink to cheer up.
Remember the donut shop where we meant to have our first date?
I'll wait there.
Yes, Mr. Ji.
Ms. Lee Soyeong, come on over.
This is the Q2 performance report you asked for.
I'll get going now.
Ms. Lee Soyeong.
I think a drink is in order on a day like this.
You can vent about the contest.
I had you come here so I could cheer you up.
I figured you'd refuse if I didn't ask for the report.
This was just a silly excuse.
I thought it was odd that you asked me
to bring you this.
Sit.
Okay.
After you left the party like that,
I thought a lot.
I tried to figure out why I couldn't give up,
when I know you don't want me.
Of course it's because I like you.
But that's not all.
I sometimes see your back,
and you seem to be shouldering so much.
That always worries me.
I suppose I may appear the same way.
As you get older, you have more responsibilities,
so your shoulders grow heavy from the weight.
I don't know what's weighing you down,
but I'd like to lift it off your shoulders.
I certainly can do that.
I'd like you to have everything you want.
Mr. Ji.
Hyeon and I have spent a long time on our own.
Both Hyeon and I would like
someone new in our family.
I'm proposing to you right now.
Whatever it is that is weighing you down,
share it with me.
You're right.
I do have a lot weighing me down.
My lack of credentials is one thing,
and my family, whom I have to support, is another.
But I've never thought of having someone else
shoulder my responsibilities.
Everyone has something weighing them down.
I'm so grateful,
but I will shoulder my own burdens.
Even if takes me longer to reach my goals,
I think it's only right.
And as you may have guessed,
I like Mr. Choi Jinuk.
Although I can't be with him,
and I should just focus on my work for now,
that's how I feel.
That is why I can't accept your proposal.
I expected this,
but it still breaks my heart.
I'm sorry.
But feelings do change.
I'll ask you again some other time.
Until then, I'll keep this.
And if you answer the same way,
I'll give up then.
[Be confident You can become the best]
Yes, Mr. Jang.
Did you know that Jinuk tendered his resignation?
Pardon?
He's quitting The Style to go and work for his dad
so that he can change his dad's mind.
Resorting to something like this in order to marry you...
Talk him out of it.
The kid can't stand pork hocks.
I'll call you back, Mr. Jang.
- Hello. - Welcome.
What would you like?
Spicy pork and eel, please.
- And a bottle of soju. - Yes, sir.
- Spicy pork and eel. - Okay.
- Is he your son? - Yes, he is.
Here you go.
You seem like a stand-up kid.
Thank you.
- Do I take this over? - Yup.
Here's the spicy pork. Enjoy.
- Excuse me. - Yes, ma'am.
One soju, please.
- One soju? - Yes.
Coming right up.
I can take this, right?
Choi Jinuk.
What are you doing here?
Have you been waiting for me?
You shouldn't be out this late at night.
I'm sorry.
I won't be stupid anymore.
I'll be here for you from now on,
no matter what.
Soyeong.
Let's go.
Go where?
Where are we going?
Wait, wait.
Soyeong, I know how you feel,
but not today.
My dad won't have anything nice to say.
Let's wait a bit. I'll talk...
Do me a favor.
Even if your dad isn't nice to me,
don't lose your temper, okay?
Huh?
Let's go.
Wait a minute.
Dad.
What sweet things are you here to do today?
Hello.
You...
There's something I'd like to tell you.
