(The Women's Room)
Who says that I can't make this my room?
This is just the beginning.
I'll start as an employee and work my way up to become the heiress.
I'm going to make this my room one day.
Once I make this my own, I can do whatever I want.
Do you know what kind of a person that woman is?
Are you talking about Hee-soo?
Can you be sure of who she is and if what you know is true?
You sound like my mum.
Yes, Hee-soo.
I'm not drinking.
I got it.
You don't have to wait up for me.
See you then. Bye.
You asked what kind of person Hee-soo was?
This is who she is.
She is someone who worries about me.
She stays up to open the door for me when I come home late.
She listens to my problems.
She has taught me that family isn't about being related by blood.
Hee-soo is already a part of my family.
Hee-soo, would you like to work at our hotel?
I'm going ahead with processing your application, okay?
Madame Gong.
I took the first step towards my dream.
Aren't you happy for me?
For the artist, Kim Chang's private exhibit,
I plan to create a different ambience with lights and...
make it more like an art fair than a gallery.
Good idea.
Hotels have been adapted as cultural spaces.
Starting with this art fair,
think of ways to bring in more cultural events to our hotel.
Sure, Dad.
What do you think about hiring Hee-soo as a special case?
I found out that she used to work at hotels.
She had even applied at our hotel,
but got disqualified during the interview process.
Really? What a strange fate.
I know.
Although we met each other by chance,
I wonder if we were fated to meet each other.
No one comforts and supports me as well as Hee-soo.
It's true there aren't too many young people like her.
I can tell she feels bad about staying at our place.
Then will you consider hiring her as a special case?
That's not an easy issue.
Don't you know we have protocols for permanent hires?
I know but there are always exceptions.
Please, Dad?
Let's think about it.
Since when did Mrs Yeo become handicapped?
When Mrs Yeo gave birth to Eun-chae, there were complications.
Mrs Yeo almost gave her life for Eun-chae.
Then it's been more than 20 years?
You know, sitting in a wheelchair, I guess she's not able to do it.
Right?
Do what?
You know...
A man and woman...
You know!
This and that...
I'm not sure but I guess it wouldn't be like what normal couples do.
Oh my!
How lonely my Mr Min must have been for the last 20 years!
My Mr Min?
He's a man after all.
One can't live without food, but food isn't everything in life.
Good!
I like it.
Here's a tip.
Thank you.
No need to thank me.
Buy some sweets with it.
Stop it.
Why are you being so rude to a guest?
Is this how this hotel trains its employees?
Haven't you heard that "The guest is always right?"
And you are not one of them.
Why did you book a room when you have a home?
I'm having a pyjama party with my friends.
Ridiculous. Pyjama party?
Go home.
Go home, put on some pyjamas and go to sleep.
Come out!
Why?
- Come out! Come out! Come on! - Why are you doing this?
Go home while I'm still being nice to you.
Okay, I'll leave.
But was her name Min Kyung-chae?
I need to see her.
What would you have to do with the vice president?
Do you think that woman has nothing else better to do?
A woman?
She was a woman to you?
Since when?
Did you fly back from Italy because of her?
Oh my! Does grandma know about this?
You troublemaker! Get in.
Let's talk about it inside.
Why?
Right now!
You said to come out.
No, I don't want to go in.
Get in.
No! Wait!
You just want me to stay inside?
What are you doing here?
That's what I want to know.
What are you doing here?
Isn't she your girlfriend who came by last time?
Do you always have such good memory...
or are you just interested in my personal life?
I guess you can say it's both.
You know what?
Inviting your girlfriend to your workplace is...
inappropriate in Korean culture.
Perhaps you're not aware since you've been abroad for too long.
I'm just letting you know that.
You know...
Hello?
You know the chef...
What about the chef?
He invited his girlfriend and is having fun at work.
It can't be.
I witnessed it myself just now.
Why did you skip dinner?
It's not good to make a habit of it.
How can I have an appetite?
How do you explain this?
Shouldn't you say something to explain yourself?
It's nothing worth explaining.
If a lipstick smudge is nothing,
would having a child out of wedlock be something?
Do you know how many times I've had to change my secretaries...
because of your suspicions?
If you want me to trust you, don't act suspicious.
You bring home this evidence and expect me to trust you?
Isn't that asking too much of me?
It's you that's too much.
Isn't it about time you stop suspecting everything?
You're like this because you're self-conscious.
I've worked hard all day.
Can't you just give me some peace of mind at home?
What did you say?
Let's stop this. I'm tired.
Self-conscious?
Are you putting me down because I'm sitting here?
Who is putting you down? No one is doing that!
It's just all in your mind.
(Employee of the month Eun Hee-soo)
What are you doing, Hee-soo?
I wanted to have tea with you.
What's all this?
It's nothing.
"Everything about Managing Hotels in the 21st Century"
"Customer's Expectations of Hoteliers"
"How to Achieve Your Dreams as a Hotelier"
When did you do all of this?
"The Ten Commandments of Eun Hee-soo"?
"Make eye contact while greeting guests by their names."
"With a grateful heart, be ready to meet the needs..."
"and expectations of the guest."
"Be a good listener until the guests express their needs."
Are they commandments for yourself?
If I don't do this, then it just becomes a job to make money.
For me, working at hotel was more than just ordinary work.
This is great!
I should use your commandments to train our employees.
You are really a great person and a hotelier.
Our hotel will be missing out if we don't hire you.
I feel pressured if you say that.
Didn't you know? I want you to feel pressured.
Look at these.
These are scrapbooks put together by Hee-soo.
What was her reason for quitting her previous job?
She was a good employee so I don't think she was laid off.
I'm sure she had personal reasons.
Not all personal reasons are the same.
What if it's for an unacceptable reason?
They wouldn't let go of her if she's really that good.
People get disqualified during the interview process for a reason.
What would you do if she was blacklisted or...
if she was fired due to a scandal?
Are you talking about the blacklist?
It can't be.
Check on it just to be sure.
I won't stop you if nothing comes up.
That's like checking up on her behind her back.
We need to if we must.
I'm proud of our recruiting system.
A clean background is a must.
Without it, no one can be hired.
Don't tell me it's not going to work out.
Please help me one more time.
You bring me such a cheap deed.
You should know it's not easy to use someone else's money.
Is there any way you can help me one more time?
That's your problem.
You need to bet on your most precious thing...
if you're asking for what's precious to me.
That is a true deal.
Why don't you send your son to work for me?
Think about it again.
It's not a bad deal for you.
Why did you do that?
What did I do?
That's too much.
Who would give up their child for money?
There's nothing more powerful than money.
Money made me lose something more precious than my life.
I'm not happy to see you like this.
No matter what the reason, you're ultimately taking away...
what's precious to other people.
It's the same with the Mona Lisa Hotel.
I'm not trying to take away the hotel.
I'm only trying to get back what is rightfully mine!
Why aren't you reporting to me?
I've told you to report to me about the management of the hotel.
You want me to be your spy?
Grandma. Do you really want me to go down so low?
Aren't you your father's son?
Some kids give up their lives to avenge their parents.
Some even die for it.
Soo-hyuk,
is something going on between you and that vice president?
What is she talking about?
It's nothing. Stop talking nonsense.
You overreacted when I mentioned meeting her.
Do you have any feelings for the vice president?
You can date anyone on this planet except her.
Don't pay attention to what she says.
I'm going to work.
Soo-hyuk, can I come to the hotel?
No.
Why aren't you giving me pocket money?
- Did you forget my account number? - No. Never!
Not a daughter of the Min family!
What's wrong? She didn't want to eat?
She doesn't feel like eating.
The food looks so good.
I wonder why she didn't even touch them.
Who knows?
She's just always been a picky eater.
If a woman is picky with her food, it speaks for her personality.
I can eat anything.
Is it because she's the president's wife?
What's wrong with this food?
Are you out of your mind?
Do you think this is edible?
What's wrong, Ma'am?
It's too salty.
Is your tongue deformed?
Do you want to get kicked out of this place?
This tongue has failed to get the right seasoning.
Darn my tongue.
Should I make it again?
It's okay.
It's already prepared.
As an elegant and refined person, I'll just eat it.
What is she doing in the middle of a meal?
Did she eat something wrong? Or has she not had enough?
I should be able to live like that at least once and be called "Ma'am".
Gosh. I'm never welcomed and always called a missus.
They wouldn't let go of her if she's really that good.
People get disqualified during the interview process for a reason.
What if she's on the blacklist?
Do you mean the blacklist?
It can't be.
Check on it just to be sure.
I won't stop you if nothing comes up.
Hi, Ju-hwa. It's me.
Are you busy today? Can we meet?
The ten commandments of Eun Hee-soo?
Do you mean...
Yes, that Eun Hee-soo. What do you think?
How about passing it out to our employees?
It's not bad.
Is it like a reminder?
She repeats this to herself in order to control her mind.
She said the hotel is not just a job for her.
Isn't that enough reason to hire her as a special case?
Dad wants me to find out if she has anything that can disqualify her.
I don't think he's wrong.
I know, but Hee-soo is not like that.
She's such a pure person.
What you see may not be everything.
Perhaps more lies underneath.
Actually, about Ms Eun Hee-soo...
The president is looking for you.
Okay.
What did you want to say about Hee-soo?
It's nothing. Why don't you go ahead?
Wow! You look so good!
You have such a nice figure that everything looks good on you.
Really?
Don't worry about the cost.
Just let me know if you like it or not.
Of course I like it, but this is a little too much.
It's not too much at all.
I really want to do this for you.
Why don't you look for a matching bag?
It's Hee-soo's day to pick me up.
You know the blacklist in the Mona Lisa Hotel?
You know, the blacklist?
Could you check that for me?
Okay.
What did he say?
You're getting a call.
(Min Eun-chae)
What did your cousin say?
Aren't you going to answer it?
(Min Eun-chae)
It's okay.
What did your cousin say?
He said he'll look into it.
Really?
Thank you, Ju-hwa.
Hee-soo is not picking up my calls.
I need to go home.
Darn it.
Do you want to ruin my life?
Why did you just jump onto the road like that?
Are you okay?
Miss! Miss!
Are you hurt? Are you okay?
I'm okay.
Are you really okay?
If you are, then can you try to walk?
Don't say you're okay now and later say it was a hit-and-run.
See if you can walk.
What's with her?
Did she hit her head?
I see that you're okay, so I'm going to go now.
You go on your way.
Goodbye.
Your stuffed animal.
What's with her?
Miss, why aren't you going? You're making me nervous.
Where is my house?
I need to go home.
Could it be because you're in shock?
But you should still know where you live.
Think hard.
Call on your phone.
What is this? The battery is dead.
I'm really busy with deliveries right now so...
Why don't you get in and we'll think about this slowly.
Can you get in?
Put on your seat belt.
You wrote down the password, right?
Use it only to check on your personal info.
It took my brother a lot of effort to get this.
I will. Thank you.
Why do you need to check the Mona Lisa Hotel's blacklist?
It's nothing.
Yes, Sir.
There?
I'm on my way now.
It's Hee-soo!
Hee-soo!
Miss! Where are you going? Wait!
I'll call you back, Boss.
Hee-soo! Hee-soo! Hee-soo!
I think she's calling you.
Hee-soo!
Let's get a taxi since it's so hot.
I think she knows you.
Why do you walk so fast?
It's Hee-soo.
Let's go.
Let's go over there and figure out where you live.
Come on.
Why are you staring at me instead of eating?
Just watching you eat fills me up.
Then I should try to look pretty while I eat.
Don't worry about it.
My love for you has blinded me. Eat comfortably.
Should I just feed you?
Is this because we're in a special guest room?
You're so expressive with your love for me today.
Did you call for me?
I ordered the chef's special, but it didn't seem so special.
So I called to hear your explanation.
You didn't like it? I really liked it.
The word "special" shouldn't be put on thoughtlessly.
Shouldn't we remove it if you're not confident enough...
to satisfy everyone?
You know what they say.
It's not what you eat but who you eat with.
You must not have enjoyed your company today.
What?
Are you this rude to other guests too?
Then we have a problem.
Take back my plate.
I really like this food.
Give it to me. I'll finish it.
Don't do this, Kyung-chae. It's not fresh.
It's okay.
I was going to order one more anyway.
It works out fine now.
It's really good.
(Recruiting system Applicants information)
(Do not hire: Scandal with superior)
This is Min Eun-chae's house.
She's not home from the centre.
What?
When did she leave? She's not home yet.
What's wrong, Mrs Han?
Mrs Yeo, Eun-chae is not home yet.
I wonder if she's lost!
Eun-chae?
Yes.
This is bad.
The world is so evil that...
they grab young women and do horrible things to them.
Come on! But that's only for normal people!
What would they do with a stupid girl like...
Didn't you go home yet?
It's plum tea.
This is good for digestion, so drink up.
Are you always that stupid or are you just a big eater?
Pardon?
Why did you sacrifice yourself to make me feel better?
Thank you for trying to make me feel better, but...
overeating isn't good for you.
No, I really enjoyed it and I was really hungry.
Really?
I'll let it slide this time.
Let's go home.
What business do you have here at this hour?
I don't have much business here at this hour.
Yes, Mrs Han?
Eun-chae?
Okay. I'll come home right now!
What's going on?
Eun-chae is not home yet.
Let me drive you.
No, I think it's faster for me to go alone.
See you later.
Eun Hee-soo.
You just got settled in and is this the end?
It's the Mona Lisa Hotel!
It's not just any hotel but the Mona Lisa!
I really wanted to be hired!
The blacklist...
I'm sure Kyung-chae saw it too.
What am I going to say? What should I say?
What?
Where are you? Everyone is in a panic right now.
You know Eun-chae, that slow girl?
I think she lost her way home from the centre.
She's still not home.
Hee-soo, are you listening to me?
Hee-soo?
You think I have the time to worry about her now?
The person you are trying to reach is not available...
Hee-soo, wasn't it your day to pick up Eun-chae?
If you get this message, please call me right away.
Mrs Han, where is Eun-chae?
She's still not home.
Did you call her phone?
Her phone is off.
Did Hee-soo call you?
Well, she must be busy looking for Eun-chae because...
she's not picking up her phone.
Look! Mr Min is here!
Why are you out here?
Dad, Eun-chae is not home yet.
They said she left the centre and her phone is off.
What?
I was so worried that I looked all over the neighbourhood,
but I still couldn't find her.
Did you report this yet?
You've got to report this to the police.
Do it now.
Okay.
Mr Min, let me walk you in.
Where are you Eun-chae...
What's going on? Eun-chae isn't home?
I don't know where she's gone.
We can't even get in contact with her.
This has never happened before.
Do you think something bad has happened?
(Min Kyung-chae)
Kyung-chae, I was just about to call you.
I waited in front of the centre but she didn't come out.
I'll call you back.
Is this the right neighbourhood?
I'm glad you remembered.
I guess we just have to look for your house.
Is it that good?
You must've been really hungry.
I'm okay. You eat it.
Look at you.
You shouldn't do this in front of another man.
You shouldn't stick out your lips and smile like that.
All men are evil.
You have something there.
Who are you?
Come here, Eun-chae.
You shouldn't just eat anything.
You're too much. What's wrong with eating?
You shouldn't follow after just anyone.
What if they're bad people?
Excuse me. I'm not the bad guy here.
What's wrong with her?
Who is she? Is it her sister?
Listen to me, Eun-chae.
I saved you from a bad man, right?
No, the delivery man was a good guy.
No, he was a bad man.
He tried to take you far away...
so that you can't be with your family again.
I went to get you at the centre but we just missed each other.
No, you didn't come to pick me up at the centre.
I did.
I really did. You're mistaken.
No, you didn't come.
I called for you to come but you didn't answer your phone.
No, I went to get you.
No!
I went to get you.
And I saved you from a bad man. Do you get it?
