Secret Love Affair
Episode 1
Delivery! Set 403.
I'm leaving right now. It's going to take about 30 minutes.
I'm going to call you midway. Stay where you are, okay. Okay.
More importantly, about the opening number of the music festival...
I chose the most popular one, Beethoven's Fifth Symphony.
- Napoleon said... - Enough.
I can't remember it anyway. Just jot it down for me.
Who's performing?
It will be conducted by Maestro Jo In Seo.
Him again?
He will be doing part two all the way to the finale.
Your husband wouldn't like that.
His juniors are taking all the spotlight.
- He has no choice. - Artists can get really jealous.
It also drives him.
I'm sure you will comfort him.
Is she asleep?
I'm close by.
Slacking off on duty?
- I'm sorry. - Come out.
You have a customer.
Will it be done soon enough?
I will make it quick. We're just trimming the ends.
- Pay extra attention. - Yes ma'am.
- Please make yourself comfortable. - Okay.
- Don't you just hate customers coming late? - No ma'am.
A little lower, please.
I'll put on the towel now.
That's nice.
You're really good at massaging.
I had a headache all day.
- Are you a student? - I graduated from high school.
I see. So you will be an assistant when you're done with this?
Yes. Would you like me to keep going?
No, that's enough.
One second please.
I will lift your chair up.
I'm sorry.
You can throw it away. It's worth only 10,000 Won.
That was so refreshing. Thank you Miss Da Mi.
It's fake. I got really scared because I thought it was real.
If it were real, they'd leave it back at home.
No, you have no idea about the kind of people I deal with.
They are seriously loaded.
I just can't get it.
Hey, just throw it away.
- Are you a beggar? - Why? It's pretty.
- Is it done? - Yeah.
Let's go.
- Pull over here! - Why?
They say that people who kiss on a bridge are bonded forever!
I don't want to then.
Don't be a jerk!
Hello.
Good morning.
- Hello. - Morning.
Morning.
Hi.
Welcome.
- It's cold. - Pardon?
I regret wearing a skirt.
What?
Look at me...
- This is too much. - Take a picture.
- Buy me a skirt. - Okay.
I will put this on until then.
- Give me a pin? - Okay.
- At least it's big enough. - Yeah.
I can wrap it around twice.
Here.
- Did you get Seo's picture? - No.
- What? - Mr. Choi is waiting for her to get back to him.
Wang didn't hear anything from her after she got off work either.
- Then find her. - Do you know where she is?
- Dark grey skirt. - Yes ma'am.
Have a good trip.
Answer the phone.
If you don't answer me in ten minutes, I'm just going to do it my way.
I'm here. I'm coming up.
I don't care who you're with.
Kick him out right now.
Or hide him in the closet.
Coming in.
Please wake up ma'am.
What time is it?
I should take this and use it for our PR.
What is this?
Can you get out now?
Bye. I will call you later.
Farewell! Sorry if I was interrupting.
What brings you here?
What if it was your husband?
So why didn't you answer your phone? You should always stay in touch.
What do you think you're doing?
What are you doing here when your mansion is elsewhere?
I postponed all of your appointments and got your chauffeur on standby.
You can have your coffee in your car. I need to see you get in the car.
Drink this and wash up.
I'm hungover. Get me something soft.
So rude.
I'm not giving you a six digit salary to stalk me.
Like this?
You think it's easy to be your friend and servant?
I want a raise, twenty percent.
You will eventually get in trouble.
And you will blame me for everything.
Of course.
You're Madame Han's only source.
So get out of it before you get caught red handed. You think you're safe here?
Do you know why we have ethics?
You have to abide by the traffic signs to avoid any accidents.
You want to lecture me?
If you're not going to eat, let's go. You're late.
You're so annoying...
Then fall in real love at least.
You know, your slap really hurts.
What's real love, you bitch?
Is that why you don't cheat on your husband?
Get dressed and come out.
Your life is even more fake than mine.
I know that your husband is a loser.
Yes, Se Jin?
What is there that's actually yours?
Your house is mine. Your car is mine.
Your maid is mine.
Yeah, don't worry. I'm with her.
Make yourself pretty and take good shots ASAP.
We need to hand them over today.
Oh yeah... you know you have to be at Hannam tonight.
I was with you last night.
Come up with something better. That story won't hold.
Yeah.
I'm on my way.
Send the file and check for any errors.
Spelling errors and such. Yeah and get me that report.
Please read it over and see if there are any mistakes.
There aren't any.
What happened to your face?
It's the makeup.
She needs to stop slapping people.
Do you have to know everything?
Gossip got me where I am.
What is this? Why are we missing a picture?
She's shooting that right now.
Just use any picture. Why take a new one?
It's not like people care about what she looks like.
It's a big event. A good picture couldn't hurt.
Isn't she seeing some model these days?
I heard she got him a Porsche.
I don't know.
Her husband is perfect for her.
I heard her husband got an apartment for a student in Vienna.
When are you coming? Did you see the kids?
Huh?
Don't get hung up on petty things. You're a big boy.
Last night I was preparing the music festival with my staff.
Then I fell asleep.
I'm going to dad's place to play Mahjong today.
I don't want to stay up for the time zone difference. Don't call me.
I will see you in Korea, honey.
Okay.
- Kim! - Yes ma'am?
Make me look better than Madame Han.
I hate seeing her looking younger than she is in pictures.
I canceled the appointment with the museum at three.
We're going to the chairman's place at seven. I will be there earlier.
Make sure to come. No one enjoys that anyway.
I will lose a lot of money for you.
That'll be good.
I need to reward you for covering Seo Young Woo fooling around.
It's my family's shame.
I'm legally her mother.
I'm just worried that her father will find out.
Did that sound superficial?
The truth is that I was to steal all of her shares.
I don't like seeing her coming here as the President.
You don't mean that.
I don't mean it?
You don't want her position?
Should I trust you on that then?
You sly fox.
That was tiring.
My legs are shaking already.
One second. She just got here.
It's Professor Kang. I answered it because it kept ringing.
Honey? I'm sorry.
The report took too long.
Oh did you get the draft?
Was there a mistake on your page?
Why does he only get to have his student on it?
I have students too!
My student didn't even get a song.
Does that make sense?
You know I've always wanted to say this.
Are we even married? Are we on the same team?
You always give the good ones to Jo In Seo.
Will you stop? I thought you heard it from Chancellor Min.
Even if you didn't...
I didn't even get to eat breakfast.
Yeah! It was Min's idea!
Honey, I'm really sorry.
But can we talk about this at home?
I'm really tired right now.
Okay, I'm sorry.
I'm going to be a little late.
He is getting more followers.
If he gets on the stage with his student, all the kids will go crazy.
You don't want anyone getting too much attention within the school.
Nothing will turn out well for you, sir.
You're so naive.
Well that's your charm.
Let's be realistic.
We can only be free if we let him have fun.
We have a lot of work to do.
School application season isn't over yet.
And then we have a meeting of board members coming soon.
- All the more reason to... - Just trust me.
I have a big picture in mind.
He will say something at Hannam tonight.
Why don't you come too? Your wife is a regular, no?
I can't fit in there yet.
I can't play either.
I see. Anyway, you have nothing to worry about.
Search everything within the last three years.
Auditions and national competition finals.
- Just the finals? - There's plenty of good kids who didn't make it.
And there are kids who upload on YouTube.
- Then do that! - Yes sir.
- Make it quick. - Yes sir.
- Hello Professor. - Hi.
- You have a class? - Yes.
I heard that you two were working together.
Yes.
The master and the apprentice performing together. It must be great.
Only if he's good. I'm trying to work with him.
I look forward to it. Good luck.
- Thank you. - Bye.
Can't you tune ahead of time?
You pieces of trash!
Professor, I have the data.
What is this? You should have gathered it together as one.
What good is a USB?
You said that you wanted it quickly.
I put all the stuff on the web here.
Good work.
Pack them. I want to take them home.
I sent it for printing. We need to print the invitations now.
Good job.
I have something else. Hannam.
Can you get automatic ones? It's easier.
There's no fun in that.
Alright, it's a tournament today.
Hye Won! Win everything in that table and bring it to me.
Oh no, I was going to win your money too.
Oh.
Don't worry, I will raise the pot for you.
That sounds like you mean something else.
You want to raise the pot to take our money.
What's wrong? That hurts my feelings.
Stop fighting.
The two women I love the most fighting breaks my heart.
I taught you how to play this so that I could have fun with you.
I know right?
- Let's get started. - Am I the dealer this time?
Let's see.
- Set. - Okay.
- I give you 20,000. - Oh wow, I fold.
Oh yes!
I can't do anything without my Lily on the table.
I'm cheering for you right here.
- I wonder whose Lily that is. - What kind of play is that?
- Whatever. - You're not playing so well today.
She's really busy nowadays.
She pulls all nighters every day because of the music festival.
I got lucky.
Six!
Full house.
What the heck?
Shall we take a break and eat something? I'll go get abalone.
Hye Won makes it fun.
- I'm happy losing money. - Then pay me in cash please.
Why are you so good at this?
Practice makes perfect.
It's good. Serve this with the sauce.
Saying that I couldn't sleep because I was working...
Is that your way of saying that I live at your mercy?
What? I just didn't want him to worry about you.
He trusts me. You need to sort out your life right now.
When a woman reaches forty, dignity is the biggest charm.
I've always wanted to ask you this.
Lily Han. Madame Han?
What is your relationship with Chancellor Min?
- What? - A customer back in the days.
And now? Your lover?
Bitch! What? Say it one more time.
Let go. Are you out of your mind?
Come out. It's time for round two.
Oh my God!
Let go.
Close the door. I'm going to finish her today.
How dare you say something like that.
- The Chancellor will hear you. - Let go! I'm going to flush her.
Lily!
- Will you let go? - What are you doing?
Yes, honey.
Both of you are the same.
Whose side are you on?
I'm always on my side.
Make sure to smile.
Disgusting.
The professor is in his study.
Let me get my energy back first.
Did something bad happen?
Not bad, just difficult.
Maybe one more?
Oh, nothing is easy.
Right?
Nothing... nothing... There's no one.
[Rose Competition, the real winner]
I see you're still angry. Can you not be like that?
You have a good wife like me.
You can start to raise an apprentice then.
And stop doing private lessons.
Crazy guy. Is the piano a joke?
Wait.
What?
He's not crazy. He's sick.
Look at his finger shaking.
His hand isn't well.
He's just bad. Not good enough.
Why can't I get students like Ji Min Woo.
You could have picked him for me.
Move. I have something to tell him.
[Sign-in]
Tenosynovitis? Hurry up and go to the hospital.
Thank you for your interest. How did you know?
Experience. I had to quit playing because of it.
I was born in 1994. May I call you my older brother?
Of course! Born in 1994? You're still a baby.
What about you?
Me? Twenty five years old, unemployed. You? Piano major? Music student?
I have no schooling. You sound like you do.
Graduate student. A complete loser.
What are you doing?
This is kind of fun.
I'm pretending to be an unemployed 25-year-old.
Are you drunk?
A little.
Did Chancellor Min say anything?
He wants you to learn Mahjong.
He wants you to join the club.
Life is all about being easy-going.
You don't want to work on your career too much. Just feed yourself and enjoy music and life.
By the way, am I alright?
There are plenty of kids who are 'alright.' Go to the hospital. I know a good place.
Oh! Really?
Dr. Kim Ho Bae, Orthopedics. It's in Sindangdong.
Should I tell him that you referred him? Can I ask your real name?
Even my real name is fake.
Geez... that's too much.
Make sure you go. He's good.
Thanks.
Tell me how it goes.
What is it? Who is he?
Just someone.
Aren't you going home?
[Go to bed. See you again.]
[Okay.]
Your life is more fake than mine.
I know that your husband is a loser.
And you have nothing.
Your house and car are mine.
You think paying her your allegiance will give you my position?
You don't want that position?
Of course I do.
[Kim Ho Bae, M.D.]
Bro! Thanks. I'm receiving treatment.
That hospital was really good. Cheap and nice. I want to be nice to you.
Let's flash up some time. I can be anywhere near Seoul within an hour.
- What does it mean to flash up? - Huh?
It's when gamers meet up in real life.
I'm busy part-timing.
Okay, I'm going to work too.
Are you coming today too?
Yes! I got an invitation.
I'm going to attend with Baek.
Baek? The shaman that comes here?
Her daughter plays piano.
You're early.
Yes, I am.
You look pretty today.
What kind of booking is this?
How can customers run into each other in VIP rooms?
I'm sorry, ma'am.
You need to watch out for her.
She will pull your hair.
I'm the lady of the house today.
It's the art center event.
You're just a sponsor.
Of course.
Then you better stay put.
Isn't she cute?
So annoying...
There's a bow tie on my desk.
Yeah. That one. Okay then. I'll call you.
Thank you.
He's going to send it via express courier.
Do you do anything right? You always miss something.
I'm sorry. It will be here in no time.
Jo.
Joon Hyung.
Did you rehearse the finale yet?
No not yet. Min Woo needs to ask your wife first.
Finish it within an hour.
Okay.
Why do they have to ask for your approval to rehearse?
It's not because of that... Can you please work with me?
Can't you see that I'm busy?
Then why take care of them?
On my way.
Sorry. See you later.
Professor Kang.
Hi.
You two look like you're getting along.
And we shouldn't?
What?
You thought sisters-in-law have to hate each other?
We were talking behind Hye Won's back.
Why she only takes care of Jo In Seo.
I asked her to. I don't have time to practice anyway.
You don't have a student either, do you?
Can you stop relying on your wife's connection and have actual skills for a change?
Or kiss someone's ass.
Let's practice later.
Go to underground parking. You can't park here.
I'm just going to deliver the courier.
You can't. We have an event.
Okay.
It's the courier. I'm here. Level one. Alright.
Okay.
Payment...
Huh?
I'm short two thousand won.
Can I get a discount?
I'm going to need you often.
I will be a regular. Trust me. Okay?
It's awkward when they call you Manager Oh.
She's been my teacher for more than ten years.
Your teacher is Professor Jo In Seo.
You're the one who recognized his talent and picked him.
That's why.
Okay! Keep calling me your teacher then.
Please play it now.
Okay.
It's strange.
Right?
Sorry, I left this inside.
You're awesome.
Alright no more fooling around. Let's be serious.
Okay.
Very good.
Good enough? Can you relax now?
Yes.
Thank you.
Have a good performance.
Okay.
You know when Chopin finished his song during competitions...
there was a huge hammer in his piano.
It gets worse during competitions.
Competitions get fierce.
Take extra caution with the stage security.
Make sure no one touches the instruments. Personnel only.
Professor, would you like something to eat?
It's a free meal for all personnel.
- No. - Okay.
You want some make up? Here and here?
Do it then.
They are rehearsing again.
Of course, he wants to do well.
He wants to save face and support his apprentice.
Min Woo is playing the high notes?
Huh?
There's no harmony in the base.
And no harmony at treble either.
Maybe they are concentrating on the missing parts.
Their ensemble is amazing.
Min Woo is doing well too.
I couldn't get one like him.
I know.
Is...
Professor Jo here?
Weren't you just with him?
I left the cafeteria first.
If that's not you, then who...
Yes, he's not here. Did he just leave?
Check the piano again.
We have one hour until the performance.
VIPs arrive in thirty minutes.
No alarm.
Full security. As subtle as possible.
Full security. Full security.
Full security.
What happened? Did you check the CCTV footage?
We're watching it now.
Check the jacket.
Professor.
He's the courier.
Courier? What? Okay.
It's a criminal offense.
Make sure to get him before he gets caught. I need to see him first.
Emergency. I just got a bow tie from you. Please call me back.
This.
You delivered this right?
Excuse me. I need to check.
I'm Professor Kang Joon Hyung. You guys are on high alert, right?
Oh, excuse me.
What's wrong with the security?
You think I paid all that money so that you could have your social party?
This is why people say the Art Foundation is just a playground for the filthy rich.
It's my fault.
They thought he was just one of the performers.
You should have had them check the faces of all the performers.
How could you let someone touch the instrument that just finished getting tuned?
Fortunately, nothing is wrong with the piano.
What if something was?
You always talk about ethics. What about your job ethics?
Negligence! You know this is enough to suspend you.
Let's scold her later.
Your priority is to finish the event smoothly.
Go back to your places.
Manager Oh, take care of the VIP Room.
Yes ma'am.
What support.
Are you trying to screw me over?
Did you plan this?
No.
The Chancellor is coming soon.
Let's go greet him together.
I told you to stay put.
Act natural.
I heard he's the courier.
Did you hear it?
Let's talk later.
I wish he was caught too but I'm curious.
This is something serious.
I'm only letting you go for the event today.
Walk out the front door and disappear.
I have to go underground for my motorcycle.
This way then.
Something happened?
Whose clothes are those?
No food then.
Did you have a fight with Da Mi?
That jerk, not answering my question and making me worry.
He's being mean to me, because he's paying off my debt.
Don't worry about him. I will scold him for you.
Oh yeah, Myung Hwa. I'm off work tomorrow. You want me to do your hair?
Write your profile.
Name, address, and number.
I will call you. If you run, then it's really going to get serious.
- Tomorrow. - Yes?
That kid from before.
I'm going to rest today.
What about yesterday?
It's okay now.
That's good.
I thought Seo Young Woo was going to give you crap.
That's why I'm not going to work.
I'm going to take the day off.
What are you doing today?
Class in the morning.
Faculty meeting in the afternoon.
You know... you want to see a student?
I don't want to see your private lesson.
I bet he's already been worked on.
It's not a private lesson.
You know the kid that got in trouble yesterday?
The courier?
You didn't hear him, right?
No, the sound wasn't recorded.
I only saw his picture on the CCTV.
I'm not as good as you in this.
But when I was listening, I thought it was Jo and his student playing together.
So he played a two-person ensemble with just two hands.
He played both treble and bass.
Can you check him out?
Jong Soo will bring him soon.
Check if he should receive formal training or not.
I'm here.
Okay, just drop him off there.
I told her already.
Where are you going? I was going to cut your hair.
Later.
Can't you give your mom a bit more respect?
No.
Hey!
Get in.
I got a call from Professor Kang.
Get in. I don't have time.
What are we doing here?
You'll see.
Please sit here and wait.
Lee Sun Jae?
Yes.
I mean, hello.
Tea?
Want some?
No, thank you.
Come with me.
Subtitles by DramaFever
Say hi. This is my wife.
You asked for eight people for piano?
Find some good students.
An apprentice like Ji Min Woo is an asset and a weapon.
Lee Sun Jae, play textbook style at our school.
You play really freely.
Is this how you always play?
Can I play one more?
That thing from yesterday.
Crazy.
It's too beautiful.
