Mr. Jang Taesu.
About Eunsu...
How much do you know?
Well...
I think I know more than Sangjun's mother.
At least I know she's not
Sangjun's or your daughter.
There's something that's been bothering me.
I couldn't understand why
you were so interested in my family's affairs.
Is it really because of Sangjun?
Or is there another reason?
I'm hurt. Sangjun was my friend and you didn't
think I'd be interested in your family affairs?
No, I'm not saying that. It's just that
Why did you look into Eunsu's past?
You think I'm trying to find dirt on her?
If I wanted to, it wouldn't be hard to.
Then...
Do you know who her parents are and
whose family she was supposed
to be raised by?
If Eunsu's not Sangjun's daughter,
who cares who her parents are?
I think it's a waste of time for me to be
talking about this with you.
Waste of time?
I should get going now.
Hello?
Can you summon the contest winner,
Han Eunsu, to my office?
Yes, with the design team leader.
I was surprised you asked to see me.
Is something wrong?
Can I have Jeongae's number in America?
I told you she left
because you might be worried,
but actually, I think Jeongae is still in Korea.
Then, can I see her right now?
Wait, why are you looking for her?
Do you need her for something?
I think Taesu
doesn't know anything about Eunsu.
What?
I need to ask Jeongae something.
I have to see her.
Don't be nervous.
I called you to see how you were doing.
Thank you, sir.
I'm expecting great things from you, Ms. Bae.
I heard you're our best designer.
You're too kind.
And although you're not an employee here,
please think of this project as your own
and do your best.
Ms. Han Eunsu.
Yes, sir.
I'm relying on you.
I'll do my best.
I feel so reassured.
You may go back to work.
Ms. Han, will you stay and talk to me?
I want to ask you something about your design.
Excuse me.
You can relax.
There's no reason to be nervous.
Thank you, sir.
You and Jiwan must get along very well.
Not many brothers and sisters get along so well.
Oh, we do get along pretty well.
And you get along with the rest of your family?
With your mother and grandmother?
Of course. We're family.
Right. You are family.
I'm home.
Oh, hi.
You seemed fine for a while,
but you look down again these days.
Is work wearing you out?
What about you? How's work?
It's fine. I like it.
I feel like I'm getting something done.
It'd be great if I could work there for good.
And when I see President Jang,
I want to work there even more.
Taesu is good to you?
I don't really work there, so he doesn't have to.
It's just that he reminds me of dad.
I envy his children for having a dad like him.
You do?
But then again, if Taesu were your father,
you would've enjoyed a better life.
I'd be a princess.
His wife seems to be a fashionista.
Mom?
It's because I brought up dad, right?
Oh, I must be taking after aunt.
What's wrong with me?
It's okay.
Are you working hard on the new project?
Yes, sort of.
You're new, but you should do your best.
I am doing well, father.
You can check with Mr. Yun
on how well I'm doing.
Is Jiwan in your team, too?
Yes!
He's impossible.
He's too meticulous.
The contest winner, Jiwan's sister Eunsu.
Is she doing well, too?
She works really hard. She has a bright future.
She's very quick to understand and friendly.
She has great respect for the senior staff and
she's extremely hardworking...
Look at you!
Why do you act like you're
always trying to kiss up to that family?
Do they have something on you?
It's the truth. Why won't you just believe me?
Are you close with Eunsu?
Excuse me?
She's your friend's sister,
so you must have seen her a few times.
Did you know her from high school?
I met her recently.
It's not like Jiwan would introduce me to her.
Oh, that Jiwan...
Really?
It wasn't loan mismanagement.
There's a possibility of illegal lending.
This company had credit rating problems,
but a loan was approved.
Mr. Choi, weren't you in charge of that case?
You assured me there wasn't any problem.
Please don't tell them anything!
If this goes wrong, I may be terminated.
Mr. Kang.
My wife is having a baby next month.
Please help me.
Mr. Kang...
I'd like to review the design contest winner
Ms. Han Eunsu's design, too.
- Ms. Han Eunsu. - Yes.
Here you go.
It is foldable, like luggage
to minimize storage space,
so you can use the extra space
when you're not using it.
I tried to apply a new concept of design.
That's it.
I think it's a good idea.
Ms. Bae, what do you think?
Did you consider the design's
mass production development?
How about usability?
Well, actually...
I'm sorry.
I hadn't thought of that.
Let me ask you another question.
In industrial design, first things to consider
are mass production and investment.
Did you consider those aspects?
I'm sorry.
I hadn't thought of that, either.
You said it's easy to move,
so what kind of material did you have in mind?
It's foldable,
but it's common knowledge that ceramic
thermal structure can't be folded.
Is there a solution for that?
I'm not sure.
Ms. Bae, do you have an alternative to her idea?
You're not criticizing her for
the sake of criticizing, are you?
I do have a suggestion.
Ms. Han Eunsu?
Yes?
Can you help me?
It's a heater, so it must be integrated.
And for the center of gravity,
it shouldn't be able to move easily.
This design is a new twist with
key elements of all medical devices.
If you'll look at the details...
Seriously!
This is too boring to listen to!
I'm not a designer,
so don't ever call to me to a meeting like this!
Mr. Jang Hyeondo!
Don't mind him and continue.
Wow!
Aren't you Ms. Bae Dajeong?
Did your presentation go well today?
Excuse me?
You looked like a very talented person.
You pointed out the weaknesses of that design,
you're experienced and professional.
Thank you.
But do you always humiliate people in public
when you point out weaknesses?
You must not be very confident in your work.
That's why you used a green intern
to make yourself look better, right?
What did you say?
"I can do it by myself."
Haven't you heard of that expression?
Look here.
I think you're mistaken.
Sure.
Keep up the good work,
stepping all over everyone working under you.
I'm busy. Excuse me.
Ouch!
I think I almost got hit by that car. Ouch!
Are you hurt?
Thank you.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I'm glad you're not hurt.
No, it was all my fault.
I'm very fragile, so I fall all the time.
If you feel any pain, please call me.
But you don't have to...
I'll see you again.
Yes.
See you again.
For sure.
Welcome...
Wait!
Minja, what are you doing here?
I'd been bored staying at home all day,
so I'd been looking for something to kill time.
Then, Seonhui asked me to help her out,
so I've been coming here every now and again.
Helping her out?
Yes.
But...
Yeongju and my husband
don't know about this.
So can you please keep this a secret?
Between us?
Why? If you're doing it just to kill time?
Well, it's not really a secret,
but what good would it do
if my family finds out?
My husband will complain about his reputation.
Don't ask so many questions.
But if you do that for me,
I could maybe help you out in the future
when you need it, don't you think?
You can help me when I need it?
Of course.
Okay.
That's a nice deal.
Okay, thanks.
Are you all right?
It made me feel really ashamed of myself.
I don't think I took it seriously enough.
Why should you feel ashamed?
Ms. Bae was too harsh on you.
Everything she said was right.
I worked hard, but it wasn't enough,
so I'll have to work harder from now on.
It wasn't "not enough."
For a first timer, you were good.
When I saw your design, I was proud of you.
That was enough. It was your first time.
You can do better in the future.
Right. Let's go.
Ms. Oh Minja?
Hello.
Oh, hi.
Haengsuk, what an unexpected surprise.
What do you mean?
You said we should help each other.
What?
I want to ask for a favor.
There's a handsome gentleman
who visits the restaurant often.
His name is Shin Yeonghwan.
Okay, so?
Well, actually, it's nothing big.
I was wondering
if you could let me know whenever he visits.
Haengsuk, why would I do...
You said we should help each other.
Wait a minute,
who did you say not to mention your job to?
Oh, right!
We're supposed to help each other out.
Okay, I got it.
When that Shin something man comes,
I'll call you right away.
He's not Shin something.
His name is Shin Yeonghwan.
I'm depending on you.
Okay.
Hello.
- Hello. - Thank you.
I'll hand them out.
Hello.
Thank you for giving me that chance yesterday.
Don't mention it.
I'm sad you weren't able
to take advantage of it.
It was all my fault.
I'll do a better job next time.
Sure.
Please teach me.
I'll do my best.
Ms. Han Eunsu.
Yes?
Newbies like you tend to
focus on making the design visually pleasing.
If that's what you want, you should
spend your own money, not someone else's.
Yes, I got it.
Thank you for your advice.
She seems to have potential.
Are we committing a crime?
Why can't we act normal?
We're not Romeo and Juliet.
What's bothering you this time?
Are you under a lot of stress?
I'm sure you are.
I saw you running around earlier.
Oh, you and Jiwan are the same.
Why don't you take your heels off?
Aren't your feet swollen?
I have to go.
Hey!
Why did you come to work here?
It was easier to see you when
you were working at the pizza place.
I can't have lunch with you or help you.
Let's tell everyone.
I don't care what Seo and Yun think of us.
Well, I care.
And you have someone you must worry about.
Who?
I'm the CEO's son!
My brother.
Maintenance Check
I told you we'd have to break up if he finds out.
He keeps telling me how you are a great friend
but really bad boyfriend material.
But that's...
If Jiwan says no, the rest of my family will, too.
That's where you stand right now.
Let's not talk about this anymore.
I have to go.
- Eunsu. - Yes?
Don't take the stairs. Let's take the elevator.
They are being checked right now.
What's wrong?
It's because of my feet.
I haven't worn heels in a long time
so I have blisters.
- Blisters? - Yes.
Let me see.
Is it bad?
Oh, it's really bad.
Right?
Come on. I'll take you to the nurse's office.
How long have you been standing here?
Hyeondo, please make copies of these.
What?
Yes.
Copies.
Here they are.
Put covers on them and bind them.
Bind, okay.
Since you're on the way,
get me some coffee.
Americano with two shots.
Is there anyone who wants coffee?
Sure.
Five coffees. Americanos.
Your coffee.
Can you change the water cooler?
Okay.
Sure.
Oh, I feel like all my stress is gone!
I feel so great.
We finished the market research
on the new product.
Were there any good ideas from the meeting?
We are considering function, convenience
and technology to find the best one.
How's Hyeondo doing? Well?
He's showing his qualities as a good CEO.
From key projects to trivial matters,
he's been setting a great example all-around.
Hyeondo's setting an example?
Yes.
He changed the bottle in the water cooler,
and he got coffee for everyone on the team.
He got coffee for everyone?
Yes.
Did he buy them with is own money?
Why are they so heavy!
That witch! I'm going to get her for this!
I can't believe she's ordering me around!
That boy...
Don't you think
Hyeondo has changed these days?
What do you mean?
I feel so proud of him.
How so?
He changes water bottles and gets coffee.
He's doing that now?
Last time he worked overtime.
You're happy making your own son a slave!
Of course!
If you want to do great things,
you must try everything out by yourself.
I'm glad you're happy about
making him an errand boy!
Think of this as his way of gaining experience.
I owe it all to you.
You're that happy?
You're a weird man, Mr. Jang Taesu.
Seonhui.
I mean...
Ms. Han.
Is something bothering you?
No.
I can see you're worried.
What is it? Is it bad?
Oh, how frustrating!
If you keep that bottled up inside,
it'll only hurt you in the end.
Look at me.
I opened up to you, and I feel better now.
What is it?
I'll keep it a secret.
It's just I feel like I should apologize to them.
To whom?
My kids.
I feel so bad about all of it.
Seriously, you did the best you could for them.
You didn't do anything wrong.
Why would you be sorry?
Right...
I thought I did so much for them...
But looking back, I really didn't.
If they were raised by someone else,
I feel like they wouldn't be
suffering such hardships.
Someone else? Like who?
Unless they're millionaires, we're all the same.
Don't keep it all bottled up.
You'll get sick.
You don't look well.
Go home early and get some rest.
Jiwan...
How's mother?
Is she very sick?
It's nothing serious.
Why did you call him at work?
Well, it was time
for him to come home anyway.
It's nothing bad. It's fatigue.
She received a shot and took some medicine.
Go in and check on her.
I think the grand opening was hard on her.
I said it's nothing serious.
You always make a big deal out of nothing
when it comes to your mom.
Don't get up, mother.
I'm fine now.
It's nothing. Why would they call you?
I heard it's fatigue.
Shouldn't you be at the hospital?
No.
Things were a bit crazy
after the grand opening.
I guess I was a bit worn out.
Honest.
You need your rest, too. Go.
Mother.
Is something wrong?
No, nothing's wrong.
I'm just exhausted, that's all.
If anything's wrong, please tell me.
What an awful mother I am.
All I do is make you worry.
I'm...
I feel...
So guilty toward you and Eunsu.
If you and Eunsu grew up with better parents,
you wouldn't experience
such hardship and pain.
I wanted you to be happy
and experience only good things...
I'm sorry I wasn't able to.
Mom, why would you say such a thing?
Better parents than you?
You want me to leave you when I find them?
What about you?
If you find a better daughter than me,
you'd abandon me and adopt her?
Eunsu...
Why would you break my heart like this!
I'm sorry, okay?
What for?
What are you apologizing for?
What did you do?
Why can't you be more confident like Ms. Lee?
We're the ones who should apologize to you.
You work so hard all the time because of us.
We should be sorry, not you...
Okay, I'll stop thinking that way.
I won't say I'm sorry anymore.
Instead, I'll be better to you, okay?
Please don't do that. Please.
You don't have to be good to us.
You don't, so don't be sick, okay?
Okay.
I got it.
I got it, so don't cry.
Okay, I won't do this again.
Stop crying.
Talk about overreacting.
That mother-daughter pair is always like that.
And why does Seonhui have to scare
us once in a while like this?
Mom, don't be like that.
Whatever!
Why is she sick?
She's the manager,
but instead of ordering people to work,
she has to do everything herself!
That's why she's so exhausted.
Oh, I'm so upset.
Please review the draft I handed out
and let me know if you have any new ideas.
Let's just tell everyone.
Who cares if we get discovered?
Is it a crime for us to date?
Why do you keep bringing it up?
I said we can't.
Your grandmother and aunt like me now.
How many times have I told you?
The trouble is my brother.
Your grandmother is okay, so why would you...
Don't you have respect for your elders?
What are you talking about?
Forget it!
I should ask you.
What did you do to make
my brother think you're so wrong for me?
Just how bad were you?
Here.
What's wrong with you these days?
You throw a fit one minute,
then you're super nice the next.
We're friends. There's no such thing as too nice.
I just want to give you more.
I just want to give you everything.
No thank you.
You make me nervous when you do this.
When we were in high school,
remember how we got into a fistfight?
I was so rude back then.
But it's all in the past.
Still,
I'm sorry.
What?
Shouldn't you be apologizing to that girl?
You didn't apologize to her, did you?
What was her name?
Was it Mihui?
You still remember that?
Of course I do.
Be good to your current girlfriend, okay?
Then you must hate the idea of my dating.
Why would I hate the idea of your dating?
I'll root for you.
You mean it?
That means you think I'm a decent guy,
good enough to date your little sister, right?
Why would you bring up Eunsu here?
For example.
I mean for example.
Don't use my sister as an example.
Hello.
Ms. Bae asked you to review this.
Okay, thank you.
No way...
Hi, Yeongju.
Are you busy?
Are you working?
We're having a meeting, so I'm preparing for it.
Nobody is picking on you?
Just tell me who.
I'll come and harass them.
No, everyone's nice to me.
I even went drinking with Ms. Seo a few...
Wait, didn't you ask me
if my brother's seeing anyone?
Yes, I did.
I think I know whom.
I think it's Ms. Seo.
I think she might be close with Jiwan.
Might be? Is she or is she not?
I'm not sure.
I think she is interested in Jiwan.
She was more interesting than I thought.
I thought she was stiff and boring at first.
What's so interesting about her?
She gets funny when she gets drunk.
What?
She bites people.
That night she bit Jiwan,
so he got bruises all over his arm...
Hello?
She bit Jiwan?
Where are you? I need to see you.
Seriously?
I'm busy.
You don't look busy.
What the heck!
Why do you keep showing up at my hideout?
What? I can't come to a cafe when I want to?
You don't own this place.
The least you can do is to say hi.
Goodbye.
Wow, I can't believe this.
Acting like that in front of people is a bad habit.
A liar like you shouldn't say that.
Where do you think you're sitting?
I came to talk business, so I can sit down.
Who says I'm going to work with you?
If you don't leave, I will.
I have so many ideas.
Too many for me to handle.
You want one of them?
I have lots of ideas, too.
There's a tofu factory in Namyangju
that's run by a family for three generations.
I'm already yawning.
Two twin brothers are feuding over
the 4th generation master's seat.
Jealousy between two brothers over tofu.
Who will be the victor?
So? Isn't this interesting?
That's not a special story.
Anyone could find it online.
That's what I'm saying!
Get the information online
and do the rest in person.
Here.
Go and interview them.
Traditional Tofu
This is the right address.
It's been run for 4 generations here?
This dump?
Excuse me?
Is anyone here?
What's going to happen to us?
Mr. Kang.
Did you hear about the transfers?
What?
They'll be moving a lot of people around.
Everyone's worried about job cuts.
Job cuts?
Mr. Kang.
I need to talk to you.
I'm sure you heard.
I heard about the recommended resignations.
About the loan...
Why did you get caught now?
If they take disciplinary action against you,
I'd be worry-free.
I wouldn't even have to think about who.
I can just put your name on the list.
But sir...
Timing is bad.
Please don't blame me.
But nothing has been decided yet.
They haven't revealed who's at fault.
Then make sure they don't find you at fault.
Excuse me.
Oh, my! Mommy!
Seriously!
Who could it be?
Mr. Heo
Seriously?
Why do you keep calling me?
The address I gave you yesterday?
You didn't go there, did you?
I told you I wasn't going to go!
I'll deal with the problem of reality myself!
Oh, I'm glad to hear that.
They closed down because it's haunted.
What did you say?
When the great-grandson and great-great
grandson left, the original master fell ill.
He passed away, they closed the factory,
and it's been haunted by a ghost. A lady ghost.
We're not trying to make a horror drama,
so let me find another story for you.
Wait!
Ghost...
Mommy!
Oh, no!
Mommy!
Oh, no!
Mommy! No!
Seriously!
Why did I ever come here!
Huh?
My phone!
I'm going home.
I said no! No!
I've never been to that place.
I worked so hard to find that place for you.
I asked everyone I know and got confirmation.
The place is delicious.
Right? Yes!
At the corner of that street! Yes.
Yes, I'd be very grateful.
Yes.
Okay. I'll see you there.
Bye.
Who was that?
Is it okay for us to talk to each other?
There's nobody here.
You're meeting someone?
Yes.
I'm meeting someone.
Who?
Mr. Kim Jiwan, why are you here?
Ms. Seo, what about you?
These are sketches of last year's winner.
I thought these might help you.
Thank you.
I really needed them.
I have to go.
Mr. Kim Jiwan, I'm leaving.
Okay. Go.
Are you two friends?
Eunsu's my little sister.
We didn't keep it from you intentionally.
Why would you tell me?
It's not like I asked.
You said you were leaving.
Uh, yes.
I have to go.
Goodbye.
Bye.
That Heo is ruining my life!
Oh, my heart!
Why did I listen to him?
Where is it?
Seriously...
Oh? My phone!
I'm saved! I am!
I'm saved.
My phone!
Jiwan
No wonder...
I thought she was oddly similar to you.
Oddly similar?
Your habits, your walking, being considerate...
Speech style and gestures only siblings share.
Things like that were very similar.
Of course they are.
She's my little sister.
You two must get along very well.
We do.
But it won't be easy for you to tell the others.
I just started working there,
and it might make Eunsu uncomfortable.
That makes sense.
Having different last names
might raise questions.
You're not curious?
Well, it's not that rare.
But for something you're not comfortable with,
you sure told me pretty quickly.
I just thought I could tell you things like this.
I just thought that I could trust you.
Hi, Yeongju.
Jiwan, can you come and get me?
Where are you?
I'm in Namyangju.
There was a ghost
and I have no purse or money.
Yeongju, what did you say?
What happened?
Can you just come and get me?
Okay, I will.
Text me the address.
It's my friend,
and something happened to her, so I must go.
Jiwan!
Are you all right?
Jiwan...
Are you hurt?
What happened?
I came to do research for a story,
and the ghost took my purse,
and my credit card and wallet were in there...
I was able to get my phone back...
And your number was in there...
The only person I could think of was you...
I'm glad you called.
You're really scared.
I'm glad you called.
Where's your purse? I'll get it for you.
The ghost over there took my purse...
It's okay.
Calm down.
Yeongju, are you feeling better now?
Say hello.
This is Ms. Seo from my office.
Oh, okay.
Hello.
Ms. Seo was familiar with this area.
If it weren't for her, I would've gotten lost.
Oh, honey!
Anyway, good job.
Don't take your mom's car. Drive your own.
Father!
My amazing father!
Your decision has taught me a great life lesson.
Yes!
When there's reward, I'll be more motivated!
You're an exceptional man, father!
You should punish him. Not reward him.
- Mom! - Well,
I think he's getting his act together.
I worried he'd have women problems at work,
but he's been working very hard lately.
I can't believe you.
He isn't a total fool,
so why would he that at work?
I'm happy for you.
It was pathetic to watch you whine about
taking the bus to work with your bus card.
Anyway, you better behave yourself.
Yes!
And watch out for girls who hit on you at work.
What should I do if someone hits on me?
Not at my company! Don't you dare!
If you get involved with a co-worker,
it could mean big trouble.
How would that be such an issue?
You can just fire her.
Mom!
Don't you know how powerful the union is?
You shouldn't say that. That's bad.
Anyway, just do what you've been doing.
You've been doing a good job.
Yes, sir.
What is it this time?
What is it?
We can never be discovered.
Are you kidding me?
That's what I've been telling you all this time!
I'm saying we can never ever get discovered.
We'll be in serious trouble.
I'm not at all planning on getting discovered.
I'm leaving. So we won't get discovered.
Eunsu.
Can't you quit the project?
Your pay, I'll...
I have a feeling we'll end up being discovered.
If you don't want to be discovered, lower your voice.
I could hear you from outside.
There are so many elevators,
so why do you always take the stairs?
Ms. Seo, we aren't in a relationship.
I'm not interested in other people's love life.
And we're not interested in your love life.
Right. Let's stay out of each other's business.
Sure!
Wow, she is so cool.
No wonder every woman here
wants to be like her.
Cool my butt!
There's only one reason why she's doing that.
What?
She loves picking on me.
I'm leaving. The lunch hour is almost over.
Hey.
You can't leave like this.
You have to go straight home after work.
What do you want?
Let's go.
- What? - I said let's go.
This is Hyeondo's job.
I can do it.
Let me have them, too.
I'll take them back.
Is that okay?
I'm a little behind.
Thank you.
Let's go.
The roof top would be better
than the stairwell.
My dad comes here often, so nobody else does.
But what if we run into President Jang...
Oh, my father doesn't come here every day.
He comes every now and then, so it's okay.
But why should we go where he goes?
Okay.
If you're worried, I'll check.
Hi, father.
Where are you?
Me?
Why are you asking?
Just because.
I was wondering if my very generous father
who gave me my car back had lunch or not.
Yes, I had lunch.
I'm getting some air on the rooftop.
You seem to have really grown up.
You're actually worried about your father.
Father, why are you here...
Wait...
Hey, Hyeondo...
- It's locked! - Over there.
Help!
My father's calling me!
Your call is being forwarded to an automated...
I have to go now.
Do you know how long it's been?
You pulling all-nighters because of the project!
Wait.
I know where there's no one here.
Let's go.
I only have 10 minutes left in my lunch break.
I didn't even get lunch because of you.
Why are you looking at me like that?
I'm grateful for those ten minutes.
Let me look at you.
Oh, Kim Jiwan is the problem.
Why does he always go home with you?
Is he your father?
I don't get him. He doesn't know his place.
But you're happy, aren't you?
We haven't seen each other in a long time.
I want to talk, but you want to hold my hand?
Okay, I got it.
What? What is it? Why are you...
Jiwan...
What are you doing?
