Episode 8
It's been too long.
It has.
I've been keeping up with how you're doing
by reading about you in newspapers.
I met with Sangjun's mother recently.
Yes.
She asked you for a difficult favor, I heard.
It was nothing. I was happy to help.
I will make sure she never
asks you for another favor like that again.
I know you're a different person now.
Your circumstances are different.
I'm sure you're fed up with old acquaintances
who try to benefit from your success.
That's not true.
You're Sangjun's family.
After Sangjun passed away...
I called you once.
When we were having the hardest time,
I asked you for help.
But you turned me down.
Seonhui, that was...
I realized back then...
That we were done.
I didn't know you still harbored feelings
about that incident.
The company was facing bankruptcy,
and you know I had so much to take care of.
And I'm ashamed about that,
so I shouldn't rely on you anymore.
We must put the past behind us.
I don't want anything to do with you anymore.
Do you really want to
sever ties with my family?
Yes.
Eunsu
Hello?
Yes.
The president?
Eunsu!
Mom!
What were you taking photos of?
It was something for the contest.
I thought it might help me with sketching.
When is the deadline?
One month from now.
I see.
Mom, is it okay for you to be out?
Yes, I talked to my boss.
He'll fire you, mom.
I'll be fine.
Why did you ask to see me?
Because I wanted to buy you lunch.
Really?
Let's go!
Sir, Kim Jiwan is here.
Tell him to come in.
Come in.
Hello.
Come and have a seat.
Were you surprised I asked to see you?
Yes, sir.
Even if I told you to relax, you couldn't,
so I won't say it.
I should cut to the chase and let you go.
I don't feel uncomfortable around you.
Not uncomfortable? When you're a new hire?
I'm uncomfortable.
Talk about being honest to a fault.
I've always wanted to call you here.
Excuse me?
People's view of the CEO doesn't change easily.
You might be better off being branded
by the fact you and I are close.
But that was an excuse.
The reason why I called you
is to ask you how Hyeondo's doing.
He's doing well.
Okay. I'm glad.
Please look after him
like how Sangjun and your mother did for me.
Yes, sir.
Your mother's doing well?
Yes, she is.
Good. I should see her.
I haven't seen her for such a long time.
Your mother didn't say she wants to see me?
She hasn't said it, but I'm sure she does.
Would you like me to mention it to her?
No, it's okay.
I can call her, so there's no need.
Oh, I took too much of your time.
You should go back to work.
Yes, sir.
She came to see me behind her son's back.
Why?
I'm back.
What's wrong with you?
How could you make such a stupid mistake?
What's going on?
Do you see this?
The flyer you distributed?
Tell me.
Did you give the final confirmation?
Final confirmation?
- If you mean signing off on it... - Signing off?
How dare you sign anything!
Who do you think you are!
Look, it says we give 10% of
of the purchase amount in gift certificate.
Don't you know what we sell?
The prices start at $1,000 to $2,000!
How can we give 10% of that in gift certificate?
- It wasn't 10%? - Who'd give 10%!
It was 1%!
The promotional budget is $300,000.
Ten times that is $3 million!
Are you trying to make us go bankrupt?
Hello?
There's been a mistake.
Please don't give them out to your customers.
Someone will be there to collect them.
Yes.
Hey!
Is he running away?
Jiwan!
I'll join you.
You're going to collect the flyers, right?
Send us the shop list,
and we'll collect as much as we can.
Please call the shops and tell them
not to distribute the flyers.
Mom, is something wrong?
You have something to tell me, right?
No, I don't.
I just wanted to buy my darling daughter lunch.
Right? I am a darling.
Because I'm your daughter.
If I looked a little bit more like you,
I would've been rally gorgeous, right?
Eunsu.
How would you like to go back to
studying design some more?
A 2-year degree is enough.
A bachelor's degree is a waste of money.
I'm taking classes, so I'm fine.
I should've known you had a motive!
Nothing's for free.
Mom, eat.
You eat.
If you don't eat, I won't.
Come on!
Eat.
Hurry.
Good, right?
I'll cut it for you, Eunsu.
I can do it.
Eat, Eunsu.
- Delicious. - It is?
Don't distribute the flyers...
- Yes, the flyers. - We'll collect them.
Yes.
- Thank you. - Please collect them.
We're going to reprint them.
Well, no. Yes.
Excuse me.
I'm sorry, but I need to collect the flyers.
Yumin wasn't at the practice room.
Has he been here?
Yumin...
Oh, the singer guy from before?
How could you remember him right away?
You're interested in him, aren't you?
He's been here today, right?
No, he hasn't.
He can't come here.
Don't sell him pizza. He's allergic to pizza.
It'll mean big trouble.
It's Hyeondo.
You do get it right away!
Why won't you check them?
That's the polite thing to do.
Why do you care?
Don't you have to be at your office?
Why do you care?
See?
When someone calls,
you must answer right away.
That's the polite thing to do.
Hello, this is Jang Hyeondo.
Excuse me? I'm near the office.
I have to come?
You wouldn't really need me...
Okay. I'll be right over.
I'm busy. Bye.
I'm sorry. I have to collect these.
Nuga Global, Seoul Branches List
Hello?
We're on our way to collect the flyers.
Please give us a few minutes.
Hello, sir.
We're at the final branch.
We've been collecting them.
We've collected most of them.
72 left?
That's a lot. What a relief.
Good work.
They finished collecting them.
Just pay them. Don't be so cheap.
Man...
All we have to pay for is the reprinting cost.
That's not bad at all.
Just thinking about them
going out is horrifying.
We have 138 branches in Seoul?
Yes.
That's a lot, but there's
only one branch in a department store.
Department store...
No...
Hurry up! Hurry!
Where is the phone number?
What's wrong?
Department store?
What department store?
Our medical equipment shop
opened in a department store this year.
Yes, we've mailed the flyers to our customers.
I thought it was going too smoothly.
We're in trouble now.
One's neglectful of work duties,
and the other signs anything he sees
and distributes flyers.
There'll be a disciplinary action against you!
Especially you, Jiwan!
Do you know how much damage this will do?
The flyers were mailed to 3,000 customers.
We're talking about $1.5 million in losses!
Look what you did to the company!
Look what some stupid flyers did to us!
This is so frustrating.
How did you let this happen?
It's not that much money.
You want me to talk to the team leader?
Don't do anything.
This is the time to let me, the CEO's son, help.
You're so square.
What is it?
I said I'll help you if you need me.
Did you find Jeongae?
Nothing bad happened to her, right?
There's nothing to worry about.
She left the country.
That's a relief.
I thought something happened to her.
Everything will be fine, so you can relax.
Thank you.
I feel like I'm a nuisance.
But this was nothing.
Seonhui!
Hi.
I lost my appetite, so I wanted to eat here.
I should get going.
Bye.
Seonhui.
Who was that?
A customer?
He wasn't a customer.
He used to work with Sangjun.
He worked with Sangjun?
Wow, he looked so rich.
What would you like?
Anything's fine.
Just a second.
Did you find Lee Jeongae?
I'm sorry.
But she hasn't left the country,
so I'm sure we'll find her soon enough.
Find out about what she did in America.
See if she came back for money
or if there is another reason.
No...
How could you think that about me?
Yes, I'll see you...
Such horrible temper!
This is why Mr. Park cheats on her.
Did you do something to annoy her?
I did, Mr. Jang!
Because I was busy escorting Mrs. Minister,
Mr. Park's wife got mad at me.
Oh, you should've handled it better.
How can I cater to 2 women at the same time?
You're right.
It's hard enough trying to do that for one.
That's why I have infinite respect for you.
I don't need your respect,
so figure out a way for me
to never have to see her again.
But you have to see her for the next 10 years.
10 years?
You can't fend for yourself?
How long are you going to make your wife
bow down to other women?
There are more women who bow down to you
than the women you have to bow down to.
And you think that makes me feel better?
Doesn't your diamond ring make up for it?
The ring I can't even show off to
anyone above me? How?
Oh...
Show it off!
I won't stop you.
You don't know the first thing about women.
It's business basics for women not to show off
more expensive items before those above you.
I'm sick and tired of being your wife.
I'm home.
You're home?
Don't you want to say sorry, mom?
I do love you a whole lot, but at school...
I'm not hungry, mother.
Even if you're not, you should eat.
You look like you hadn't eaten all day.
I ate. I already had dinner.
Still, have just a little.
I don't want you skipping any meals.
The meal you skipped,
you can never get it back, they say.
Okay, I'll eat it.
It must be hard.
No!
I'm new.
I make mistakes and get yelled at.
That's how everyone learns.
Jiwan.
Yes?
Just do what you can.
That's enough.
If you do enough that you have no regrets later,
you can hold your head up.
Yes, mother.
Jiwan, what is it?
I'm sorry for calling so late.
May I have the mall manager's number?
There's something I need to check right away.
Jiwan, that's been closed...
No, not yet.
If I let go, I'll regret it later.
I want to try everything I can.
This soup's awful! It's too bland.
Mom, that's enough.
I sent the doctor's note, so stop stressing out.
Please stop.
See?
She thinks I'm giving her stress on purpose.
Asking you to do your part is giving you stress?
I can't believe I spoiled someone like that
like a princess.
Stop it!
I got acute stress disorder because of you!
Don't you feel bad about that?
- How dare you get mad? - I said enough!
- I'm eating! - How about me?
I got anxiety disorder because of you!
I must be the only mom in the world
whose daughter made her a psycho!
So you can start next week.
You need an access card,
so submit the documents I told you about.
Okay. And I promise to work hard.
I look forward to working with you.
I'll work really hard.
Did you get that actress for the show?
Yes, I think it's going to work out.
Unless we get the first draft today...
What's the concept of the costume?
That looks good.
Nice.
This is so nice.
Hello, Mr. Jang.
This isn't necessary. Just do your job well.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Kang.
Yes, Mr. Ma.
They're asking for you.
They have a job for you.
They do?
Here!
Segi Bank guarantees the highest interest rates!
Thank you.
Segi Bank guarantees the highest interest rates.
Thank you.
Segi Bank guarantees the highest interest rates.
Thank you.
Segi Bank guarantees the highest interest rates!
No, Seonhui.
No, he's still deputy head,
but going to the head office is a promotion.
Who knows what kind of raise he'll get?
Okay, Seonhui.
I'll buy you lunch.
It's nothing.
I saw someone who looked like my husband.
Right. I'm sure he's busy at the head office now.
They want you to give all of these out today.
All of these today?
Mr. Jang said not to come back unless you do.
Anyway, they've been delivered.
Here!
Segi Bank guarantees the highest interest...
I forgot.
I'm getting a package delivered today...
Honey...
Get back to work. I should go.
- It's great to see you again. - Look!
How many carats is that?
It's President Park's wife!
She was nearby, so I called her.
Is that okay, Ms. Jeong?
Of course.
Welcome.
Oh, my!
You were here?
Ms. Jeong, you've been very busy lately.
Not at all.
Had I known you were nearby,
I would've called you.
Where do you think I am?
I'm in Cheongdam-dong, the place you hate!
I provide for you, so I want something back.
Yes, I'm going to pay for the perks I enjoy.
I was an idiot for calling you.
Make her happy.
Next year's contract is on the line.
But I can only take so much!
President Park's wife
is determined to torture me.
Oh, madam!
How come you get younger every day?
You don't have a single wrinkle.
Do you have good news to tell us?
Ms. Jeong, too much kissing up is offensive.
Please don't say that. I'm hurt.
Don't be.
I know you're very calculating.
The minister's wife must have
more to offer than me...
Think of our retirement.
Don't worry.
We're ready for our retirement, Mr. Manager.
Right?
Minja, you're prepared for everything.
Wait.
What?
What were you going to say before?
You wanted to celebrate something?
Oh, I just thought
you've had it tough all this time.
I wanted to do something special for you.
Don't be upset anymore.
Forget it.
Can't you see I'm too upset for this?
Mom!
Do you know where I was just now?
I wanted to wait until the decision was made.
Don't be shocked.
I was at a broadcasting company!
I got hired for the planning team!
Mom, see?
Now that I'm doing what I love,
things are working out without your sacrifice!
Mom, do you know what I'll be doing?
The famous writers you like,
I'll check their works...
Mom, you're not happy?
Must you do that?
You can't go back to school?
Seriously, I can't communicate with you.
I got you that doctor's note!
You can't let me do what I want for 3 months?
That was how I got that painting.
I felt badly. I thought maybe your husband
took it from you by force.
I bought it for you in the first place.
Well, if you say so.
Honey.
- Oh, my. - Hello.
Hello.
What brings you here?
I came to pick you up.
I told you I'll be late.
Where's your ring?
What?
Where did the ring go?
What?
You don't like it because I picked it out?
What are you doing?
Put it on right now.
Put it on?
Yes, that ring.
Put it on.
So silly...
I told you never to take it off.
You want people to think you're single?
Don't be silly.
Excuse me, may I take my wife home?
Going home to an empty house
made me feel so lonely.
You're too much, President Jang.
That's enough.
You're way too attached to me.
You're like this all the time.
- Here. - Excuse me.
Enjoy the rest of the evening.
Please excuse us.
Have a good time, ladies.
He's such a loving husband.
I envy her.
Oh, I'm so happy!
This will keep me happy for days.
Did you see her face turn sour?
You're glad about that?
Of course! I've been like
her servant for 10 years.
What's gotten into you?
Did you give up on next year's contract?
I did.
You were like her servant for 10 years,
and it's time to quit.
Whatever!
I couldn't believe you if I tried.
There's something else, isn't there?
No.
What is it?
Is it someone more difficult
than President Park's wife?
I said there's nothing.
You're making me more worried.
Do you know why I make money?
Because you love watching
your company expand.
I thought I did.
But Hyeondo taught me why I make money.
What made Jang Taesu
turn into the best businessman in the field?
It's his family.
And most of all, it's me, his son.
Maybe he's finally growing up.
I'm going to be successful just to rub it
in my mom's face.
Even if she apologizes in regret then,
I won't forgive her.
I'm serious.
I can be ruthless if I want to be.
You've been saying that since middle school.
Like, once a week.
It's different this time.
She can't be my real mom.
Maybe I was adopted.
You're not a kid anymore.
So what if you were adopted? She's still mom.
No! I should search for my real mom.
You do it if you want.
I'm never letting go of my mom.
But I think my mom's keeping a secret from me.
Moms don't have secrets!
Look at mine. She can't keep anything inside.
She's transparent.
But that's better!
My mom bottles everything up.
But that's better.
My mom takes all her stress out on me.
You're a bad listener.
Can't you listen to me, please?
I have so much pent up.
Tomorrow's your first day.
Keep calm with thoughts of that access card.
By the way, can you get actors' autographs?
Just tell me which one.
Who? Kim Yeonggeol?
Kim Yeonggeol? You can really get one?
Sure.
Top stars are all over the lobby there.
And I have an access card to get in.
Oh, Yeongju!
What are friends for?
You should come home sooner.
Fish roe stew is best when it's piping hot.
I got the fattest fish roe to make this.
Pollack roe is full of protein and vitamins.
Try the broth.
I put lots of bonito flakes in it,
so it's really delicious.
Honey.
Don't talk and eat.
And...
Here.
Try these fatsia shoots with vinegar chili paste.
This much is five dollars worth.
Where did they pick these?
Minja!
I'm sorry, honey.
I...
I can't bring myself to tell you to quit.
I should
tell you to quit your stupid job right now...
But I'm scared.
I fear not making ends meet next month, so...
So I can't tell you to quit.
I can't, so I thought about it,
but there was nothing I could do for you.
So I thought all day...
And all I could do for you...
Was cooking food for you.
Outside cooking for you...
There's nothing I can do for you...
Food...
That's plenty.
Did you get some good photos?
Yes.
Wow, Han Eunsu.
You've been working really hard lately.
I am?
For a while, you didn't even do design.
Like you had no purpose.
Not wanting to do anything wasn't so bad.
But it was because of you.
What did I do?
Watching you gave me will to try something.
Maybe I had given up too early.
Because having a dream is hard,
maybe I had given myself an arbitrary limit
and decided I couldn't do it.
I didn't even bother submitting portfolios.
When you were a teacher,
I envied you because you had a stable job.
But now, I envy you
because you're going after your dream.
Watching you made me
want to strive hard, too.
Han Eunsu.
I'm getting you Kim Yeonggeol's autograph.
You'd better.
I will.
- Yeongju... - The noodles are getting soggy.
We apologize. We'll call you back with a better deal soon.
Ms. Seo.
Not taking time to think things out
before doing something won't help you.
I'm sorry.
If only I didn't sign the receipt...
The printer's didn't call you about
the fee confirmation?
What fee confirmation call?
That was the payment receipt!
So you're saying you printed them
without confirmation?
What are you talking about?
We got the confirmation.
No one at the office confirmed it.
We printed it according to the confirmation.
Why are you being so stubborn?
You're the one who's being stubborn!
Do you know
how much damage the flyers cost us?
You printed these without confirmation
and gave my company the flyers.
That makes your company responsible for this.
Do whatever you want.
We have evidence of confirmation.
What?
We've been doing this for a long time,
and we record every confirmation we get.
If you want, I'll send you the file.
You really got a confirmation?
You think I'm making stuff up?
I don't have time to burn, you know?
Send me the voice file. Right away.
Ms. Seo Mijin.
Where have you been? I've been...
Why does she turn sour whenever she sees me?
Is that an automatic response?
This darn company.
Is that true?
Yes.
It was Jang Hyeondo who
gave the confirmation.
Why would he do that?
He's not even interested in the work.
Maybe you made a mistake.
I have the recorded voice file.
The printer's recorded the confirmation.
And Hyeondo was the one who confirmed it.
It was definitely him.
This artist is known as the next Dali.
And he has the ability to induce various
interpretations and imaginations in his works.
Yes...
Oh, they look so nice.
He reinterpreted the fantastic fairy tale world
and collaborated it with experimental language.
Just look!
The colors exude beauty and emotions.
Yes.
The colors are fantastic.
A painting is a communication with one's soul,
but vulgar, uneducated people these days
only think of them as a means
of making money.
Oh, it breaks my heart.
Right.
Why must people put a price on everything?
People these days are materialistic.
How much was your purse?
This was a limited edition.
You can't put a price on it.
Don't worry.
The boss from my housekeeping job
will send the money tomorrow.
So I'll pay you the late rent in full.
Oh, you don't trust anyone, to you?
If I can't pay the rent, I'll move out.
Bye.
Being worth a year's worth of rent
makes this so exquisite.
So they only sell this to their VIPs?
My purse...
My rent...
I have to return this later...
It's one year's rent.
My rent!
It's me.
Ouch.
Seonhui, you're cooking alone?
I knew it.
I had a feeling I wanted to come over.
Seonhui,
you're going to work, so why are you cooking?
I'll do it. Let me.
But you're a guest.
Give it to me.
Seonhui.
That's hurts. Don't be like that.
I'm not a guest. I'm family.
Mom's still giving you a cold shoulder, right?
No, not anymore.
You don't have to say it. I know.
Don't worry.
I'll stay here a few days and talk to her.
What?
Don't thank me.
We're like sisters, after all.
You can count on me.
Put that down.
Oh...
Mom.
What are you doing here?
Why did you bring this in here?
You and Seonhui aren't on good terms.
So don't eat together.
That's not necessary.
Mom.
Mom, you must be frustrated.
I know exactly how you feel.
You can deal with the shrewd
but not the stubborn.
Seonhui's really kind-hearted,
but she's beyond stubborn.
She is honest to a fault.
Yes, and that can drive you nuts.
That's why I'm here.
Keeping things bottled up is wearing you out.
Mom, here.
Oh...
No one else but I would know how you feel.
This won't do.
Before you end up dying from frustration,
I should come stay with you.
What?
Stay where?
It's okay.
Don't feel bad.
Mom, here. Dried yellow corvina.
Hello.
Can I see your ID?
ID...
- Yes, ID. - Oh.
I must be at the wrong office. I'm sorry.
- Yeongju. - Yes...
Review these proposals
and scripts by day after tomorrow.
What? That many...
- By day after tomorrow? - Yes.
Incident detail Hanjung Printing called Marketing, and Jang Hyeon...
Kim Jiwan
This is all fabricated.
But this will be easier on everyone.
It's win-win.
Jiwan is getting all the blame and punishment,
and you call that win-win?
It was Kim Jiwan who distributed the flyers.
But Jang Hyeondo gave the confirmation.
So?
You want to reveal that
and have the company owner's son punished?
He'll inherit this company in the future.
Why would you do such a thing?
Have you no love for this company?
Does Hyeondo know?
I'm not sure if he does.
If he knew, it'd be better.
He'd pay for the damages.
Because they are friends.
This is what President Jang wants.
It's good for everyone.
President Jang wants this?
Uh, yes.
He wouldn't let his son be punished.
Did President Jang really order this?
Did he really?
What?
Jiwan ran all over Seoul all night,
trying to resolve the situation.
He thinks everything is his fault,
and he's trying to take responsibility.
I don't have the heart to tell him to
take responsibility for someone else's mistake.
I will talk to President Jang myself.
Mijin!
Have you gone mad?
You're going to tell President Jang
to punish his own son?
Then cancel Jiwan's punishment.
Somebody has to take responsibility for this.
Why does that have to be an innocent person?
Why is he innocent?
He signed for it. And distributing...
When you give someone the power to decide,
responsibility goes with it.
Even if it was a mistake,
it was Hyeondo who gave the confirmation.
And he must take the responsibility for it.
Not someone who is innocent.
What are you saying?
It seems you two have lots to tell me.
Sir.
I have something to tell you.
Come with me.
Oh, Han Eunsu.
What's this?
It's what I've been working on.
- Can I see? - Sure.
Kim Yeonggeol's autograph.
I forgot. I'm sorry.
I was so busy today.
Yeongju...
I'll let it slide since it was your first day.
But do it quickly.
I will.
You like Kim Yeonggeol that much?
Yes.
He's intelligent, tall and handsome.
That's me.
Oh, my!
Why are you here again?
Tall, intelligent, handsome.
That's me.
Yes, all women love me for those reasons.
Man...
Sir, if you're not going to order, please leave.
Order?
One cola.
Do you know the main ingredient of cola?
What?
Cola concentrate.
My throat...
What's that?
Eunsu!
Oh, no!
Why did you leave your sketchbook here!
Man!
Let me see that.
This is...
These are just scribbles.
These are my scribbles!
Scribbles I worked on all night!
Seriously...
What do we do?
Man...
I didn't know that was so important.
Eunsu, I'm sorry. What are we going to do?
It's okay.
That guy is so clumsy.
He's always causing problems.
He doesn't have a thought in his head.
He didn't do it on purpose.
Did my father put you up to this?
When did it start?
Recently?
Or...
Has it been a while?
Did it start when Yumin used his mom
as an excuse and missed the audition?
Hey!
You must be hungry.
Remember the sushi you've been dying to...
You don't have to bring such things anymore.
What?
What is it?
Is it because of the audition yesterday?
Next time, I'm sure we can...
There is no next time.
And yesterday's audition...
They said they'd accept us
if you leave the band.
We're grateful about you getting us
new instruments and a place to practice, but...
That was why we put up with you,
even though we failed one audition
after another because of you.
But...
We won't sell our music
for your cheap passions.
Cheap passions?
Music is a hobby to you. Isn't it?
Leave the band.
Do you all agree with him?
You guys used me for my money?
If you're not going to sell your music to me,
who will you sell it to?
The man you met just now?
This isn't fun anymore.
It was fun while it lasted. Thanks.
Hello, father.
Where are you?
Come to the office right away.
Yes! 10%!
Nonsense!
1% is cheap! We're a major corporation.
10%! Yes!
I can understand him not being able to
do the work right.
But blaming someone else for
your mistake is a problem.
Because that makes another a sacrifice.
Are you really okay with your son doing that?
It was you, wasn't it?
Did you!
Make my friends and my band
turn their backs on me?
Living in a constant state of worry...
How about sending her abroad?
Eunsu is good at taking care of herself...
If you want to sever the ties,
Jiwan must leave my company.
That's not what you want, is it?
I...
A man who doesn't think, doesn't dream
and puts the blame on his friend!
I don't need an employee like you!
I'm kicking you out!
