Baby Faced Beauty
Each team will make three pieces:
a windbreaker,
a top,
and a pair of pants.
The team with the highest cumulative score will win.
From Design Team 1,
I hope to see luxury outdoor pieces
that reflect Paul Jean's brand image.
From Design Team 4...
Sir?
I'm sorry.
It's Design Team 5.
From Design Team 5,
I hope to see The Style's existing
mid-range and low-end brand image,
as well as a new direction.
I'm sorry I'm late.
I'll be working for the competition over the next two weeks.
I'm designer Lee Soyeong.
What's going on?
I called Lee Soyeong.
- Pardon? - Yes.
Could you step out for a moment, Ms. Lee?
You can wait at Design Team 5's office.
Okay.
I'll cut to the chase. She can't stay.
While I was in China, I received confirmation
that I could hire whomever I wanted.
You can't hire someone whom we just dismissed.
I'm not proposing we hire her full-time.
She can work part-time for two weeks.
But if we start bending rules...
Weren't you the one who first recommended Ms. Lee's design?
Pardon?
Since I didn't know she'd lied about her identity...
This is a design Ms. Lee created while she worked here.
We should just see this through.
Why is everyone being so sensitive?
Yes. SJL007856. Right.
Fax number?
I'll text that to you. Okay.
Wake up, Choi Jinuk. Why would she be here?
We've reached a conclusion on the issue of Lee Soyeong.
We're giving you 24 hours.
Design any outdoor item and make a sample.
I'll look at the piece to see whether or not
you're qualified to join the competition.
The meeting is adjourned.
Ms. Lee, you must pass the test.
I want to work with you.
Yes.
- Go for it. - Yes.
Good.
Newbie.
Oh, now you're Ms. Lee Soyeong.
Just call me whatever is most comfortable.
Well, okay.
Right now, it's not important.
I have a favor to ask you.
Don't do whatever you're set on doing.
Pardon?
Just give it up now.
How can you make a piece in 24 hours?
- Don't embarrass yourself... - Mr. Jang.
I can't do that.
I came back because I want to make clothes.
I can't give up so easily.
What?
Should I call you gutsy or stubborn?
Do you have any idea what's going on right now?
Look.
If you quit, the competition won't happen.
If Mr. Kim and I are the only ones left, they'll call the whole thing off.
Then Design Team 5 will be no more,
I can return to Design Team 1,
and Mr. Kim will be sent back to China.
It'll save money, too.
If you quit, it'll make everyone happy.
You understand me?
I want to stay on in this company, okay?
I'm sorry,
but it's one thing to be fired for lack of ability.
But I can't give up without trying.
What? So you're really going to do this?
I'm sorry.
What is this, really? Really. This is so frustrating.
Newbie's so shameless.
How can she come back here after what she's done?
It's just not right.
Mr. Kim shouldn't have called her, nor should she have accepted.
What should I call her when I run into her?
Ma'am? That's awkward.
I'll never speak respectfully to her.
Is this a school? Age doesn't matter.
The important thing is experience at the company.
But she's the same age as Mr. Jang.
You can't ignore that.
Who? Who's the same age as Gihong?
You haven't heard? Newbie, I mean Ms. Lee Soyeong has come back.
What?
How have you been?
Well, um...
So...
What should I call you?
I'll call you Jinuk, like before.
You can do the same.
I'll just say "hey" or something.
That's fine. Anyway, I'm sorry.
We have no reason to apologize to each other.
Alright then.
May I ask you for a favor?
What is it?
I need to make an outdoor piece by tomorrow.
But I don't know where to start.
Could I see your market research?
I don't think I can do that.
I can't show company materials to just anyone, Ms. Lee Soyeong.
You're not even an employee here.
Well, I know that too, but still...
Have a good day.
Thank you for giving me another chance.
What chance?
I was actually against having you here, Lee Soyeong.
I'm not happy now, either.
I'll do my best to make you change your mind.
Do you know what's riding on this competition?
If Team 5 loses,
Ms. Baek will be leaving The Style.
Pardon?
So do this right. Or quit now.
How about a drink tonight, Mr. Jang?
It's on me.
Really?
But people will talk if it's just us two.
Should we call Jinuk too?
I should have known.
Have you fallen for him?
Pork hocks don't matter anymore? A prince is a prince, right?
Prince of pork hocks, eh?
It's not that.
If you're honest with me, I can put in a good word for you.
Nara may seem like a real witch,
but she's actually warm and considerate.
A dress with a lining better than the exterior.
Huh?
What I mean is, she's the kind of woman who can nurse a man's broken heart.
Things must be bad for you romantically.
Be good to her when she comes, okay?
I hope I didn't keep you waiting.
Here.
Have I had too much to drink already?
I need to lose some water weight.
Another glass here.
Look, Nara.
You don't have a boyfriend, right?
Huh? No. Of course not.
Don't look too far.
Your other half may be closer than you think.
Even next to you.
Next to me?
Gihong's a very good person.
When things get tough for him, you should cheer him on.
Good luck, okay?
Go for it!
Wait. Hey.
What was that?
What is this?
Lee Soyeong.
What's it like to hear your real name?
I'm sorry, Ms. Baek.
You said you wanted to make clothes from your heart, right?
So have you decided on what to do?
No. Not yet.
How will you finish in a day?
You've finally gotten your name back.
Now live up to it.
Mom!
You should've called me.
Why would I bother you at work over something like this?
It's just rain.
Come in. Come.
How was it?
Did people say anything bad to you?
No.
That's good.
Mom.
Would you like me to make you a raincoat?
- What? - A raincoat.
How about this?
Yeah, but I'd prefer something more like this.
Yeah? How's this?
It's too heavy.
This is great. It's nice and light.
- Three meters? - Yes.
What's that?
A market research report on outdoor wear.
Give this to Lee Sojin, I mean, Ms. Lee Soyeong.
Don't tell her it's from me.
Why should I?
Do you still like her?
My goodness.
But you know her real age now.
It's not that.
She asked me for it, but I didn't give it to her.
Anyway, you and Lee Soyeong are on the same team.
What? The same team?
Don't be like this.
I owe you one, okay?
Hey! Hey!
Give this to her? Is he kidding me?
What? She's done already?
Nothing's going my way.
Seven hours to go...
My career comes first.
I'm sorry, newbie.
Do you have nylon or wool nylon?
Ms. Lee Soyeong, why are you here?
I desperately need some fabric.
I'm sorry. I'll find something myself.
Did something happen?
Did you lose whatever it was that you were making?
Well...
I know this isn't my business,
but let me give you a piece of advice,
for old time's sake,
and given how clueless you seem to be.
Plus, I was your MD.
Just give it up.
From what I can gather,
your team can't win.
So your raincoat will be useless.
Ms. Kang's team is bound to win.
Outdoor garments are all about the fabric.
The other team has probably got the best fabric out there.
So this competition was...
Why do you think I came back?
Yes. I do want to make clothes.
But that's not all.
I returned to this company
because I wanted to apologize to those who believed in me.
I didn't know how, but I knew I had to apologize
to you and Ms. Baek.
So winning wasn't really a priority for me.
But now I want to win.
No, I have to win.
For Ms. Baek's sake.
I will win.
Isn't it time yet?
How dare she keep us waiting?
If she's throwing in the towel, she should at least let us know.
Mr. Kim, what's going on?
Oh, yes. That. If you would wait...
Well. We needn't drag this meeting out any longer.
Will you and Mr. Jang carry on with the competition?
- But Ji... - Yes, sir.
Can you do it?
- But... - Of course.
If Design Team 5 loses,
everyone on the team will resign.
What? Mr. Kim!
Good. Let's do that.
I'm sorry I'm late.
This is the outdoor piece you asked me to make.
The designer is here, so let's have her explain.
There's really not much to explain.
Like with the khaki jacket,
I wanted to make a raincoat that women would want to wear.
It can be worn during the rainy season,
but it can also be worn as a safari-style coat.
What kind of fabric is that?
Actually...
I cut up a tent that I found in the storage room here.
How tacky.
This here is also from the same tent.
I'm sorry I used it without permission.
Why did you use a tent?
I lost my sample.
Again?
Didn't you lose a sample when you were temping here?
Good grief.
You lack the basics.
I'm sorry.
Ms. Lee Soyeong should never have lost her original sample.
But it is remarkable that she managed to make that
in such a short amount of time.
Just look at the stitches.
Everything's done perfectly.
But she used company supplies without authorization.
What does she take us for?
We have rules and principles.
The rules of the outdoor competition will be as follows.
In round 1, the scores from three judges will be added up.
In round 2, store owners will vote on the winning team.
The scores from rounds 1 and 2 will be totaled to determine the winner.
And Ms. Lee Soyeong,
don't lose another sample.
We won't let you off the hook next time.
Do you understand?
Thank you. Thank you.
The meeting is adjourned.
I'm sorry I was late.
I saw your sketch for a windbreaker.
It's very good how you turned the drawbacks into strengths.
Thank you.
So Ms. Lee Soyeong will be in charge of the windbreaker.
I'll do the top then.
Good! I'll do the pants.
Good?
Good.
It is very reassuring to have my team members with me.
Let's make this work.
Go for it!
Go for it.
Go for it!
I called Mr. Kim because he's incompetent.
I didn't know he'd make trouble.
But we can get rid of all of them now.
Please rest assured.
I got this especially for the competition.
This is the cutting-edge material that was a hit at the Shanghai Expo.
Really?
There's no way you can find better fabric than this in Korea.
Now that we have the material,
what are your plans for the judges?
Apart from Mr. Ji, the other two have to be our people.
One of the judges can be a board member,
and as for the other, I'm thinking of getting someone from the mall.
I'm not worried about Mr. Ji.
I know the likes of him very well.
They pride themselves on their fairness.
It only gets them in the end, though.
Mr. Ko.
Yes?
I'm sorry, but could you give us a minute?
Oh, well, I'll get going.
Mother, don't you trust me?
Don't you think I'm good enough?
What are you talking about?
I've been really upset since yesterday.
Honestly, I don't know why I should even compete against Lee Soyeong.
But now you're telling me to cheat?
Why should I go that far?
I was just...
Alright, I wasn't thinking.
Look at you. All grown up now.
This?
I don't like that. I like this.
You chose four, so I'll choose four, too.
It's only fair, right?
Ms. Lee Sojin wouldn't..
I'm not Ms. Lee Sojin, and she's gone now.
Plus, her name isn't Lee Sojin. It's Lee Soyeong.
Let's eat.
I have something to ask you before we go home.
Your dad and I will be getting married soon.
Your dad decided to marry me because he likes me.
What'll happen if you keep saying you don't like me?
Daddy would hate you, right?
I don't want your dad getting angry with you.
I mean it.
Should we eat?
- Is she sleeping? - Yeah.
Did you ask her if she had fun today?
I had a good time, but I don't think Hyeon did.
I scolded her when she started acting up.
I want Hyeon to be sweet and polite.
I'll make sure that happens.
Did you say you're going hiking tomorrow?
Yes.
Ms. Baek.
Is it that bad?
Something will come to you when you go hiking.
What's this? Why is this in your room?
Lee Sojin, I mean Lee Soyeong, isn't it her lost sample?
Did you take it to keep her out of the competition?
You can't tell her.
How could you be like that?
You should've seen her earlier.
I didn't want to do it.
I thought they'd cancel it if the newbie didn't join.
Honestly. What would troublemaker Kim Junsu and I be able to do?
I did a terrible thing to the newbie,
and the competition is still on.
This is awful.
Good grief.
Come sit.
Why?
Now that I'm stuck,
you need to help me.
What?
Come to our team and be our MD.
You can come hiking with us tomorrow.
Why would I do that?
If I join that team and get fired,
who will pay our rent?
Hey!
Leave me alone. I'm sorry.
No camaraderie?
No way. No way.
If I joined, I'd see her all the time.
And that would... Darn it.
I need to snap out of it.
If it goes in, go hiking. If it doesn't, stay home.
Okay, Choi Jinuk.
One, two...
- Jinuk! - Jeez.
Have you seen my socks?
Oh, here they are.
Your timing is just...
Are you really not coming?
I don't know!
Control your temper.
I'm off.
What a pain.
Stay. Go.
Stay.
I returned to this company
because I wanted to apologize to those who believed in me.
I didn't know how, but I knew I had to apologize
to you and Ms. Baek.
So winning wasn't really a priority for me.
But now I want to win.
No, I have to win.
For Ms. Baek's sake.
I will win.
Hello?
I just got here. I'm at the entrance.
We're almost there. Wait, okay?
Okay.
- Hi. - Hey.
Where is he?
Mr. Jang said he's on his way. He's almost here.
What? He left before me.
In any case, thanks for coming.
We have a lot to do today.
We? Who's "we"?
I didn't come for you. I came because of Gihong.
- What I mean is... - Never mind.
I'll help Gihong and leave.
There's no "we" here.
What's taking him so long?
Hello?
Where are you?
Have you arrived?
Where are you?
And you?
I'm in front of the ticket office.
Huh? The ticket office?
Are you kidding me?
Weren't we supposed to meet at the entrance of the fortress?
Weren't we?
We're at the entrance of the fortress.
Fortress?
Start moving.
Our trails meet at the summit.
Okay.
- Darn it. - Jeez.
Mr. Jang says we should meet up at the summit.
What?
Put this on. We need to test it.
You want me to wear this?
It even has a flower.
You need to try it, and tell me what the problems are.
Isn't this what you're here for?
Huh?
Why are you so slow?
You need to work out.
Wait. I guess it comes with age.
Whatever.
This is a good spot.
One, two, three.
- I want one together. - Yeah?
- Excuse me. - Yes?
- Could you take our photo? - Yes.
- Thank you. - No problem.
Okay. One, two, three, kimchi.
- Thank you. - Sure.
- Would you like a picture too? - Pardon?
Stand together with your girlfriend.
- She's not my girlfriend. - No, no.
There's a huge age gap. No way.
Oh, okay. Thank you.
So long.
Wow.
Hey! Choi Jinuk!
Hey!
Slow down.
Did you say something?
We need to test the product.
If you rush, how can you tell how the clothes are?
I'll do this on my own.
You worry about your own business.
Man, oh, man.
What are you doing there?
Don't block the trail.
I'm sorry. One moment, please.
You should move aside to let other people through.
Please. Please go ahead.
What's taking you so long?
Get out of the way. Other people are here.
What's taking her so long?
Maybe I should have given this to her.
The rocks were pretty slippery.
Oh, really.
Seriously.
Lee Sojin! No. Lee Soyeong!
Where are you?
Lee Soyeong!
Holler if you can hear me.
Man. Darn it.
Lee Soyeong! Lee Soyeong!
Here!
Lee Soyeong!
- Here! - Lee So...
What in the world are you doing...
What's the matter?
Are you hurt? Is it bad? Did you sprain your ankle?
Oh, no. Get on my back.
- Don't touch me. - Why not?
I have a cramp.
What? A cramp?
I can't even move. Darn it.
Jeez. You should have been more careful.
I should have known when you opted for the hard trail.
What are you doing? Ah, ah, ow.
Stop it.
Don't be stupid. We need to fix the cramp.
Hold still.
- Just bear with it. - Okay.
Ow.
Ow, ow, ow! Stop! It hurts! Ow.
Stop it. Stop it. Ow.
Now try moving your toes very slowly.
It worked.
I'm impressed. How did you do it?
Wow.
- You're okay now? - I think the cramp's gone.
Thank you, Choi Jinuk.
If you're thankful, put on your socks.
How long does it take? We have work to do.
Honestly, I'm upset at you for many reasons.
But let's set that aside and just work hard.
I can't let you or Gihong get the axe.
And I just can't get myself to speak formally with you.
But that's your fault for having lied to me,
so let's call it even.
Let's make this work, Lee Soyeong.
Sounds good, Choi Jinuk.
How are you? Here.
Hi. I'm from The Style.
We're doing a survey for new product development.
- Thank you. - Sure.
Hello. We're doing a survey on hiking clothes.
Put your arms out.
Like this?
The flower gets in the way.
Bend down.
I can see your underpants.
Jeez.
Maybe it's too short.
Let's go.
- Hey, Lee Soyeong. - Yeah?
- No waterproof testing? - Waterproof testing?
Hey!
Just stay there. Maybe it's not waterproof.
- Stop it. - Hold still, will you?
Waterproof. Waterproof.
You're really dead now.
Hey!
- Hey! - Jeez.
Take that.
Hey, Choi Jinuk!
Gihong.
Serves you right.
Just look at you.
This is so good.
Grilled meat tastes best in the mountains.
What's the beef sashimi like today?
We're out of rump steak.
What a shame.
There's a set part for that?
Of course. Every part is used for a different purpose.
The parts differ in texture, aroma, and flavor.
To me, beef is beef.
Ms. Lee Soyeong, enjoy.
I'm sure I've upset you in more ways than one.
- Let it all go. - Well, um...
The four of us should raise our glasses.
to the success of Team 5.
- Cheers! - Wait.
The four of us? It's the three of you.
This is just a one-time thing.
You come hiking with us and you play in the water with one of us.
You're part of our team, whether you like it or not.
- But... - Right? Right?
- Of course. - Good, good.
Let's toast to that.
For the success of Team 5, cheers!
- Cheers! - Cheers!
Alright. Cheers!
When we went hiking I could see what I did wrong.
I was too ambitious.
The flower was placed there to cover up the hole, right?
Yes. You used a decorative piece to cover up a design flaw.
But the flower kept getting caught on the shoulder straps of the backpack.
It got worn and torn in no time,
and it also kept getting in the way.
So what did you come up with instead?
I don't have anything concrete yet,
but I'll design a piece that's functional and practical,
something anyone can wear.
I opened the door,
and it looked like they'd been living together 10 years.
They had more stuff there than in our house here.
I still can't believe what he did to me.
And I can't believe I've become a divorcee.
I know...
Nothing that I say will make you feel better.
All you can do is be strong.
As time passes, you'll feel better.
Thanks, Yunseo.
By the way, how's Soyeong?
Huh?
Maybe it's because I'm having a hard time,
but my heart keeps going to others who have it hard, too.
What she did at the founding ceremony. I can't get it out of my head.
I shouldn't have agreed to the congratulatory video.
The video never aired anyway.
In any case, don't tell Seungil about it, okay?
I'll get an earful if he ever finds out.
I got it.
Ah..
Don't worry too much about Ms. Lee Soyeong.
She's back at The Style, though she's just a temp.
Really?
Soyeong!
Juhui.
You're really amazing.
Where did you get the courage to stand before all those people?
It stirred me up just watching you.
I'm so sorry about everything.
It's okay. I understand.
Actually, I'm sorry.
I was so mad, and that video...
- What video? - Huh?
It's nothing.
Good news. I'll be working at The Style as a consultant.
Really?
The thing is, I'm going through a rough patch right now.
Staying busy seemed like the best thing to do,
so I asked my brother.
I'll come to your team soon to check the pieces.
See you then.
Soyeong, go for it!
Go for it! And thanks.
It took us over ten years of R&D
to come up with Agenture JA-1004.
I thought I'd be seeing someone in a higher position.
Mutual trust is crucial to effective business transactions,
not one's position.
Hello, Sports Research Center?
Yes, this is Kang Yunseo at The Style.
We've received the research materials.
Okay. Have a good day.
[Yellow Dust in Korea]
Jeez.
This pattern is tricky to copy.
- Soyeong, could you help me? - Sure.
You're right. This is tricky.
Let me see what I can do.
Hello, everyone.
- Hi. - Hey.
You're just starting on the pattern?
Yeah.
Shouldn't you work a bit faster?
Stop nagging.
Don't worry. Mine will be done on time.
The real problem is him.
He still seems completely lost.
Mr. Jang, the armholes seem too small.
Right?
What are you doing there? You have your own work.
She's done.
What?
What's this? This is a windbreaker?
Yup.
Let me show you.
Tada.
- Here. - It's packable!
Shush!
It's classified until the completion.
Oh! Right.
What do you think?
What, no good?
You take off your windbreaker because you get hot on the trail, right?
So you tie it around your waist.
But this way, it won't get in the way.
And it's easy to take out again if you get cold.
But who would carry around a pouch?
And it's easy to lose.
There's no separate pouch.
The windbreaker itself becomes a self-contained pouch.
Really?
- It works like this... - Wow.
And then you fold it out.
Whoa.
It's annoying to carry around,
so this ring hooks onto your belt.
Because there's no pouch, it costs less to make, too.
That's right.
Wow! As the MD, I have a good feeling about this.
It's a very good idea.
- Really? - Yeah. Wow!
Let's show this to Ms. Baek.
Okay.
This is cute. It's just like a pouch.
Give it here. Come on. Hey!
- Long time no see. - Hello.
What brings you here, Mr. An?
Me?
This is one our judges for the upcoming competition,
Mr. An Jeongnam from Rosemary Mall.
I'm An Jeongnam.
I'm honored to be here.
So the judges will be Mr. Ji, Director Han,
and Mr. An Jeongnam.
Any objections? Let's wrap up then.
Wait.
I'd like you to reconsider Mr. An serving as a judge.
As you know, Mr. An almost filed a lawsuit against Mr. Choi.
I don't think he can be a fair judge.
Ms. Kang, this is very rude of you.
No, I agree with Ms. Kang.
As a judge, I need to be fair.
So how about a blind test?
The judges won't know which team made what.
We'll only see the clothes.
That's a good idea.
Do you think Mr. An saw the packable windbreaker?
- I don't know. - Mr. Choi!
I heard this lady is 34 years old.
So you were the spinster feasting on wine and cheese we talked about.
Upon closer inspection, you look old enough to be 34.
I don't know what came over me back then.
Please, Mr. An.
We ask you to be fair.
Of course, don't you worry. I'm very fair.
Plus, It's a blind test anyway.
I have no choice.
See you around.
Ah...
I hope you're not making a packable windbreaker, are you?
Pardon?
One where the pocket turns into a pouch?
Of course not.
That's such an amateurish trick, and you're all so intelligent.
Good luck. I'm waiting.
So he saw...
Why did Mr. An have to get in the way?
Since Mr. An saw, anyway,
we have to do something else.
Yeah, but do you have any ideas?
Let's order.
Don't look so down.
You need to eat well to keep up your strength.
Let's have meat today. It's on me.
What would you like?
Ribs? Or...
Shank?
No?
How about sirloin?
Ribs. Brisket. Shank. Flank.
What? You want them all?
- Hey! - Yeah?
I think I can do this.
Do what?
I think I have a plan.
