Here you go.
What about the promotion?
I apologize. We stopped the promotions.
But we'll be sure to have another soon.
What's the matter, Ha-eun? Did something occur?
What do we do now, Boss?
Why are you trembling? What happened?
Our kimchi...
What about our kimchi?
From our kimchi...
Aren't you giving us our kimchi here?
Ah, yes. Right here.
We're halting sales of .
I apologize.
We've received reports that the kimchi is contaminated.
Send all of this to the stockroom immediately.
You're halting our sales?
We won't allow this kimchi to be sold in our stores!
Take it all and leave this place!
What is the meaning of this?
There was a report of a contamination.
How are you maintaining your products?
You should have come to me with that.
It's unacceptable you've announced it to the entire department store!
So are you telling me that
you're going to continue and sell this here?
I'll have to inspect it myself.
Lead the way.
Of course you will.
Move out all of this kimchi immediately.
But you're not sure if it came from our kimchi!
Didn't you hear what I said!
We've received a report.
I won't sell this kimchi to our customers.
Let's go.
Boss.
Don't worry. I'm sure there's a mistake.
Contaminated?
We're verifying the claim
while we halted sales of the product.
Goodness...
I think this will adversely affect Tae-gang's image.
Since this happened during the new opening,
the disappointment is immense for our customers.
Make sure you reimburse the person who reported this,
and to everyone who bought the product in the past.
Yes, I'm handling it as we speak.
I'm worried that the rest of our food court
will suffer because of this incident.
Make sure to reimburse each and every customer.
And, shouldn't we remove the kimchi
from our supermarket as well?
Until we get to the bottom of it,
we should halt the sales.
I guess so.
Even if this blows over,
it'll be difficult to continue to do business with them.
[Complaint report]
You'll receive a call from the food administration.
Until we get to the bottom of this,
we will halt the sales of your products.
It seems that halting the sales
of our kimchi was your only goal.
As I told you before,
I have an obligation to protect my customers.
Is this how a responsible owner reacts
to unwarranted claims?
A responsible owner?
What you hold in your hands is irrefutable proof.
How can you try to blame this on me?
I won't repeat myself again.
Leave my department store now.
I'll need to meet with the person who filed the complaint.
As your company's head, you should do that.
Whatever agreement you come to with him,
just know that our business relationship is over.
Of course.
If we're responsible for this,
we'll leave on our own accord.
A return?
Why are you returning the order
that you received just this morning?
What is it? What's the matter?
A contaminant?
That's impossible.
And even if it did, you should take care of it on your end.
How can you return the entire order?
Hello. Hello? Hello! Oh my...
What's going on?
What's this about a contaminant and what do they mean by a return?
I have to go to the supermarket right now.
Make sure you get the phones, alright?
Yes.
It's a rubber band, isn't it?
It looks like it to me. Am I right?
It's a broken rubber band.
How did this get into our kimchi?
We were sure to inspect every batch.
I don't understand how a rubber band
that we don't use got into the packaging.
Even if it occurred as we packaged it here,
how can we miss a rubber band?
Right? I think someone purposely...
No...
Let's go meet with the person who reported this.
Yea, Bro.
Returns from the supermarket?
Alright. I'm headed there now.
I'll leave soon.
Ha-eun, wrap things up here and them go home.
I have to stop by the supermarket.
Kyung-gi, City of Paju, Moonbal-dong apartments...
This is a book of poems that my mother used to love.
She kept it near her as she was lying in the hospital.
You have a call, Madam.
Yes, thank you.
What's going on?
will leave
our department store very soon, Mother.
What are you talking about?
What happened?
There was a problem with their product.
We are taking the products off the shelves as we speak.
They won't be able to overcome this.
Really? What did the Chairman say?
He seemed disappointed.
The company is being adversely affected by this.
Then doesn't it affect Hyun-ji as well?
She's taking care of it.
Father knows that this wasn't Hyun-ji's fault.
Make sure you take care of Hyun-ji.
Alright.
Is anyone home?
Soo-hyuk Go. Is Mr. Go available?
The person you have dialed is not available...
We're home.
Da-yool, you're home?
Good work bringing Da-yool home.
Huh?
Are you hungry, Da-yool?
Let me make you some snacks.
Yes.
She never notices me around...
Why is she in such a good mood today?
The trucks keep returning with the kimchi.
What's going on here?
What?
They're unloading all the kimchi back to us.
This is a problem!
Did you see? Outside, they're...
We're putting it back into storage, so go and help them.
Yes, I'm happy to help, but...
Are you alright, Boss?
I'm fine.
Please help with the work.
Yes, this is Tae-kyung Shin.
The president would like to meet with you
regarding the release of .
The release?
She's asking that you meet with her tomorrow morning at 10am.
What kind of injustice is this?
Why are they trying to get rid of us
before doing a proper investigation?
Tae-kyung, are you going to let them get away with this?
We'll first have to meet with the person who filed the complaint.
You have to go the chairman before that.
Our returns are only piling
as our vendors are refusing to buy our products!
Tae-kyung, if you can't do it, I'll do it for you.
I'll go.
I'll go and plead with him.
Excuse me.
Does a Soo-hyuk Go live here?
This house? No one lives here.
Soo-hyuk Go doesn't live here?
It's been vacant for about 3 months now.
Boss, it's me.
I'm here at the residence.
But nobody lives there.
And he's not picking up his line.
Are you telling me that the address is fake?
I think so. What should we do now?
Head back to the office.
I'll look into this.
He asked that you leave for today.
He asked you to leave, did you not hear?
I heard. I'll see you again.
Let's talk.
I have nothing to discuss with you.
It's concerning Ha-eun Yoo.
Did you think business would be this easy?
A business can go away overnight.
What's this concerning Ha-eun?
You're not intending to keep her
after you know how the chairman feels about her?
See what I mean?
All that babble about organic this and that,
this all boils down to your greed.
What's your point?
My wife had a miscarriage because of Ha-eun.
For that I'm filing charges against her.
You're going to file charges against her?
But if you quietly leave Tae-gang, I'll reconsider.
This has nothing to do with the other.
Was I wrong to assume
that you cared for that woman?
You were never going to file charges against her.
I regret what happened to your child,
but watching you take advantage of that...
Advantage?
Did you just say that I took advantage?
If you filed charges,
you'd be the one who would lose the most.
And you have no other choice than to bargain with me.
Look here, Tae-kyung Shin!
I'm sorry, but I'll have to turn down your kind offer.
If you'd excuse me...
Honey, are you alright?
The department store's in a slump.
It's so tiring.
My head hurts, so I was thinking
that we let off some steam tonight.
There's a show I wanted to watch.
I'll set the reservations and call you back.
[Complaint report]
What is it?
Are you sure this person filed the complaint?
Did you verify the information?
He brought a contaminated bag of your kimchi in.
What more proof do we need?
He doesn't live there.
And his phone number is wrong.
So what?
This could've been a false complaint.
So look into this more carefully.
We've paid for this on our end already.
Do you have any idea what we had to do
in order to subdue this complaint?
I want to see who this person is through the surveillance cameras.
You're not acting like someone who should feel remorse.
As the president,
you have a responsibility to protect your vendors as well as customers.
Hyun-ji, your selfish behavior can only lead me to...
Believe that I am responsible for all of this?
Review the surveillance cameras.
I won't stop you.
Welcome.
Is this for you?
No, this would be for my mother.
Then you should be looking at these instead.
Older women prefer these.
She may be bashful at first, but they look for these again afterwards.
Take my word for it.
Really? Then give me three pairs.
Why don't you take six pairs instead?
Aren't you forgetting someone?
Your mother-in-law will also appreciate these.
You're quite the salesperson.
Go ahead and give me six pairs.
On credit? Yes.
Boss. Six of these panties please.
Remember to give me my commission!
Yea, alright!
Welcome!
Are you shopping for yourself?
This looks so good on you!
Thank you. Come again.
- Yes, have a good day. - Goodbye.
Ye-seul, your mother should be back soon.
But I wonder how your aunt is doing.
I can't tell if she's alright, or if she's keeping things from me.
I'm so worried about your aunt, Ye-seul.
[Delivery Center]
What's going on?
Is this how you manage your employees?
No, tell him to do what he wants to do.
He'll realize there's nothing there for him.
Goodbye.
Here!
Do you feel better now?
Yea, it was a great stress relief.
We should watch shows more often.
I'll be more mindful in the future.
We're going to finalize the release
of tomorrow.
Without results, are you sure about that?
Didn't father send Tae-kyung away from his office?
The fact that he caused this problem
is enough for his dismissal.
Isn't that how father would feel as well?
This is refreshing.
Ha-eun!
Can we talk?
Let's sit down.
I was so happy when you tasted and approved the mixture.
The approval from our customers at the supermarket
and at the department store made me happy as well.
I now know why you cherished your cabbages.
Ha-eun.
I was standing all day, so I was very tired.
But I can't remember a time when I felt happier.
Enough of this!
I know what you're trying to say,
so give it a rest!
I know that this might not be the time...
Please allow me to resign.
Were you always this irresponsible?
Our storage is filled with kimchi,
and people are in line for returns.
We didn't even begin our investigation into the contamination complaint.
Must you leave me now?
Were you always this cruel?
Do you not care what happens to me?
How can you do this to me now?
Can't you see why I'm doing this?
All of this is my fault!
This is happening because of me.
This will all end when I resign!
Please. Please, Ha-eun.
Don't do this. I'm asking you.
Please let me go.
This is the only this I'm able to do for you.
What do we do now?
Looks like we have nothing to fear anymore!
You mustn't ever run away again.
Never again, not one step!
You should go without me...
Without you, our company could never exist.
Where you can't go, we won't go either.
[Employment contract/ conditions]
[To never again say that you're sorry]
I'm sorry I can't stay until you find a replacement.
I thought it would be better to leave today.
I can't say anything to change your mind, can I?
Please tell the other employees that I'm sorry.
Yes, I will.
It's a relief that at least the coop seems trusts our products.
I'm fine, so don't worry about me.
Yes, this is .
Yes, this is Tae-kyung Shin.
What? Soo-hyuk Go?
Where are you now? I'll head over there.
Yes, I know. I'll leave now!
Is that Soo-hyuk Go?
Are you meeting him now?
Yes, you go on ahead.
I'll call you soon.
Tae-kyung Shin has asked to postpone his meeting to 2pm.
Postpone?
Yes.
He's meeting with Soo-hyuk Go,
the person who filed the complaint.
Is 2pm alright with you?
President?
Get out.
What?
I said get out!
Give me that person's phone number.
Give me Soo-hyuk Go's phone number!
Soo-hyuk Go...
Yes.
I'm Tae-kyung Shin, of .
And I'm an employee, who headed the sales at the department store.
Please let us sit down.
I apologize if our kimchi caused you any disappointment.
We've done our best to maintain our factories
to prevent something like this from ever happening.
We are quite shaken with this occurrence as well.
Please allow me to take this call.
Yes, go on ahead.
Yes.
Don't say a word and walk out of there.
What?
If you want what you're looking for,
get up right now and leave.
If you don't leave immediately, you won't receive a cent.
Understand?
[Subtitles provided by MBC]
Bring Da-yool to me.
I won't do it!
Bring her out here now!
How dare you raise your voice to my mother!
Have you forgotten your manners?
So what is it you want to say?
The police are launching an investigation into your department store.
I'm here to let you know.
Even if you were trying to get rid of them,
how can you be so rash?
Ignorant, like mother like daughter!
Yea, I'm ignorant! What do you care?
Get out now!
Do you think I won't do it?
