(The Women's Room)
Please have a seat, Dad.
You were the one?
I don't have to introduce Ji-sub, right?
I'm sure you know better what kind of man he is.
I acknowledge your competence...
as a general manager.
I've even had high hopes for you.
But that's only as a general manager.
Dad.
General managers are busy people.
You shouldn't waste his time like this.
Why don't you go and meet with Mr Park tonight.
I won't scold you even if you come home late.
Are you just leaving like this?
Let's talk at home.
You're giving me that look again.
We're just getting started. I won't give up.
And I'm confident that I can get your dad's approval.
I won't give up on you. Does that make you feel better?
You can't give up no matter what dad says to you.
That goes without saying.
Just don't give up on me.
How could I give up on you? That's impossible.
Didn't I tell you to spend some time with Mr Park?
Dad, Ji-sub is a good man. He's really competent.
I'm aware of his competence.
That's why I promoted him to that position.
But that's all.
Do you think he's suitable as your spouse?
I love him. Isn't that enough?
I've told you this before. You're not an ordinary person.
The future of this hotel depends on you.
You know your responsibility to take over the hotel.
The hotel and my marriage are unrelated.
I can't marry someone I don't love for the hotel.
Just do what I tell you to do. You won't regret it.
Set the wedding date with Mr Park.
No, I'm going to marry Ji-sub.
I'm doing this because I don't want to regret it later.
I won't submit to you on the issue of my marriage.
Why are you here instead of the chef?
I'm in training and this is part of the practicum.
I'll serve you with extra care since you're in a special suite.
Is that so?
Then could you run an errand for me?
In Cheongjin-dong,
there's this hangover soup place that I love.
Could you go and pick up some soup for me?
Hangover soup?
What's wrong? You don't want to?
Of course I do.
People think I'm rich because I stay in a special suite.
But my wealthy boss got this room for me.
I've worked as their maid all of my life.
And they're treating me with such kindness.
It's a thank you for my hard work.
I actually have no place of my own.
I see.
I'm sorry but I don't think we can order takeout food for you.
We have good food at the hotel restaurant too.
But didn't you just say you would do it?
Fine.
If you don't want to, call the vice president for me.
She does what I ask.
Understood.
How was the meeting with Ji-sub and your dad last night?
Dad doesn't approve of Ji-sub.
Really?
But you expected that much.
Isn't that why you put off telling your dad about him?
I know, but I didn't think it'd be this bad.
So, are you going to break up with him?
No way.
I'm going to stand my ground this time.
I've always obeyed dad, but I won't give in about who I marry.
Of course.
Especially when it's your marriage.
The guest in room 1004 asked me to buy hangover soup for her.
She won't take no for an answer.
She's asking for you.
She's kind of picky.
She's as old as a grandmother so let's do what she asks.
I know why you're so nice to her, but you got it wrong.
What do you mean I got it wrong?
Do you know what kind of a person she is?
Well, she's staying in our special suite...
So you thought she was a VIP guest, right?
She's not.
Her boss is the VIP and she's their maid.
Her boss is letting her stay there to thank her for her services.
Really?
Knowing that, I really want to do what she asks.
She has probably waited on others all of her life.
I'll be back.
Where are you going?
I have a takeout order for the guest in room 1004.
Again? Where are you going?
I think I have to go far this time.
She's asking for a hangover soup from Cheongjin-dong.
That's great!
I was on my way to the traditional market on that side of the town.
Why would you go to the traditional market?
Food there is totally different and not overpriced.
It's a perfect place for the hungry.
Let's go.
Your hand...
Let's go.
Where are you? You're not in your office.
I'm running an errand.
A guest in room 1004 has made a special request.
That idiot!
You must've been scared.
I thought we were going to get into an accident.
I was in an accident before.
I'm sorry but Ms Min can't talk right now.
Please call back later.
Are you okay?
Hello? Hello?
Are you calling Kyung-chae?
She's with Chef Jin.
They walked out together like a couple.
So she's with him?
Let's get some fresh air.
But the guest will get hungry...
This happened because she wasn't happy with my food.
I'll take care of it since I caused the problem.
Her complaints are hardly news to me.
So you're saying she's going somewhere with the chef?
You're burning with jealousy.
That's so appealing.
Please stop this.
I heard Mr Min disapproved of you.
You expected this, right?
Nothing has been decided.
There's talk of marriage with the Youngin Group's son.
Who can beat such a candidate?
This conversation is very unpleasant.
Mr Han,
I'm on your side.
It was here.
What was here?
Is this a memorable place?
Your first date? Or your first kiss?
I did something unforgivable but she forgave me here.
You need to let go of the accident and your guilt.
I'm forgiving you in place of my dad.
Is this related to the car accident?
If it's hard to talk about, you don't have to.
Difficult times don't get forgotten with time.
Talk to me about it when you want to let it go.
I'll give you my undivided attention.
My parents died in a hit-and-run car accident.
We weren't able to find the driver.
I didn't know that.
It's all in the past.
It's just a faint memory now.
That's just how people are.
Even incidents that you think you can never forget...
become faint as time goes by.
And we go on living.
It must have been hard for you.
If the driver asks for your forgiveness,
would you be able to forgive him?
I'm not sure.
Perhaps if he asks for forgiveness sincerely,
and admits everything he did.
But...
I don't think that will ever happen.
You sound like you know who the driver is.
It's because you guys are not moving forward with this.
Both you and Kyung-chae are the same.
Stop by at the hotel tomorrow.
What happened? You just hung up on me.
I just got scared, that's all.
I thought you were in an accident.
I'm glad nothing happened.
Why did you take Ms Min with you?
How did you know?
We just happened to be heading in the same direction.
How you could be heading in the same direction together?
Unless it was intentional,
how could you be heading for that particular town...
at the same time?
Does this seem natural to you?
Isn't it more unnatural that you don't think this is natural?
It sounds like I shouldn't have given her the ride...
even when we're headed in the same direction.
Why shouldn't I?
Right. To avoid rumours?
I'm sorry, but I don't care about rumours.
What is it?
The guest in room 902 is asking for you.
The two of you really look good together.
I mean Ms Min and you.
You guys look good together.
Did you look into it?
I think there are some suspicious circumstances.
What do you mean?
The victim's daughter refused an autopsy for the deceased.
Then she cremated his body and closed the case quickly.
Really?
I found out that Eun Ki-man and Hee-soo had a sour relationship.
They didn't live together.
And Eun Ki-man used to cause trouble for Hee-soo and her mum.
They didn't even live together?
Hee-soo's mum is known as Madame Gong.
She's notorious in her neighbourhood as a bar hostess.
She ran a bar?
Take a seat.
Yes, Sir.
Kyung-chae will be married into the Youngin Group.
I'm sure you're aware what damage...
rumours or scandals will do her.
It'll be worse if she's in a scandal...
with a member of her own staff.
I'll try to be better.
This isn't something you can be better about.
Kyung-chae has a path set for her already.
She needs someone suitable for her.
I'm aware of that.
You are?
Then I won't have to explain any longer.
You can leave.
Mr Min.
Let me say one more thing.
I don't want to lose...
a competent employee like you.
What do you think?
Isn't she perfect as your sister-in-law?
I'm not sure.
She's not my type, but she's not bad.
I'm not sure if Ji-sub would like her.
He has such high standards.
You're home.
Ji-sub, this is her.
Didn't you tell him about the blind date this Saturday?
I'm not interested.
She's from a pretty good family.
Her father is a manager at a soy sauce factory.
If this works out, we won't ever have to buy soy sauce!
They may be a good enough family for you.
But not for me. Do you get it?
That startled me. Gosh!
Why does he always take it out on the door?
You should slam it harder if you want to break it!
Be quiet!
Do you want him to get married to get a life's supply of soy sauce?
Just let him be.
Hello.
I didn't know you'd be here.
Nice to see you, Kyung-chae.
Dad, why did you call for me?
Why do you think I called for you?
You guys are taking things too slow.
I couldn't help but take the matter into my own hands.
That's why I asked him to come today.
Show him around your office and the hotel.
Where is this going to?
The vice president's office.
I'll take it.
If your hotel and Youngin Group unite,
it's really a win-win situation.
My dad likes you...
How about you, Kyung-chae?
Pardon?
What do you think about me?
I'm not sure.
I don't know much about you. I don't know what to say.
We can get to know each other.
Give me a tour of the hotel.
Yes.
There's a guest in Kyung-chae's office.
I think he's the son of Youngin Group.
The son of Youngin Group?
I'm sure Mr Min called him in to set up a date for Kyung-chae.
This is the newly renovated wedding hall.
I see.
The reception hall is outside. Let me show you the business centre.
Sure.
What do you think about the hall?
I think it's fitting for this highly ranked hotel.
Thank you.
Come this way.
The union of Youngin Group and the Mona Lisa Hotel.
They're suitable for each other. Don't you think?
Actually, I'm seeing someone.
I should've told you sooner.
I went out on the blind date because of my dad.
Please forgive me if this upsets you.
I'm sorry.
I see.
I understand.
I'll take my leave now.
(Min Kyung-chae)
Ji-sub is not answering my calls.
I'm so upset.
How can you meet Mr Park at the hotel?
It was my dad. What could I do?
Even if it weren't your doing,
I'm sure it still upset him.
He has the right to be angry.
Stop drinking. You're not even a drinker.
Let me drink.
I want to get drunk today.
I guess this is why my mum drinks.
I'm beginning to feel better.
I can't think of anything.
You have it all.
What did you say?
Your world won't collapse because you lose one thing.
I miss Ji-sub.
Call him for me.
He'll come if you tell him I'm asking for him.
I never got anything I wanted.
You have the hotel, a loving dad,
and the beautiful house.
Must you have Ji-sub, too?
The wealthy man is asking for your hand.
They're asking you to live up to your level.
So what's so heartbreaking about that?
Why would your heart break...
when it's me...
who doesn't have anything?
Do you even know what it means to be heartbroken?
Ji-sub.
(Eun Hee-soo)
Soo-hyuk, how can you be so slow when you're a chef?
You!
He's so tired from work and you make him cook at home.
What's the point of having a chef as your brother then?
I'm so tired of smelling food all day!
But your pizza is the best!
You sure know how to butter me up.
Grandma, you should try some too.
But it's so late already.
Do it yourself.
Hello.
What is it?
Where? Okay.
Grandma, I have to go out.
It's so late.
I'll be back soon.
Who could it be that he left in an instant?
Do you think it's Min Kyung-chae?
Min Kyung-chae? It can't be.
What happened?
I'm sorry but Kyung-chae is too drunk.
Shouldn't you call someone else in this situation?
Who do you mean?
Ms Min. Wake up!
Ms Min! Ms Min!
It's Ji-sub.
Ji-sub, I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry for what my dad did.
Ms Min. Ms Min.
Ji-sub.
What are you doing?
What do you think you're doing?
Please stop.
Mr Han didn't pick up my call so I called Chef Jin.
Ms Eun Hee-soo.
Don't you think your prank was too much?
So why didn't you pick up my calls?
If you did,
you wouldn't have seen Kyung-chae hugging Chef Jin.
What do you get out of this?
I don't think this is the time to talk about this.
Why don't you take Kyung-chae home?
Don't you think you need to explain what happened last night?
Why should I?
You were holding my woman.
I wasn't holding your woman.
I was helping my drunk superior.
What?
Didn't you tell me....
to treat Ms Min only as the vice president?
That's all I've been doing.
Why were you there last night?
I think Hee-soo told you that...
she couldn't get in touch with you.
You had quite a punch.
You won't apologise for it, right?
Let's just skip that part then.
But could you please knock before you enter?
This is my office.
Idiot.
What happened last night?
Do you remember anything?
And...
was the man who came to the hotel the son of Youngin Group?
Yes, he is. My dad called him in.
I had nothing to do with it.
You're so bold.
You don't even apologise anymore.
Fine. I'm leaving.
I told him not to call or come to see me.
I've taken care of it.
Now I can be bold before you, right?
Did you really do that?
Yes.
My head... I drank so much last night.
You were a sight to see last night.
You came to get me?
You don't remember anything?
I guess you really got knocked out.
Really?
Did I make any mistakes?
Of course, with Chef Jin...
No, it's nothing.
Congratulations.
For having a girl who's strong enough to end this wedding talk.
Why did you call the chef last night?
I told you. You didn't pick up my calls.
So don't avoid me. It'll only work against you.
Hello.
Mrs Han? How can I help you?
Our clothes? Just leave them there. I'll come by later to get them.
Really?
Then I'll come by after work today.
I'll see you later, then.
What did she say? Is she coming after work?
Yes, she is.
Hee-soo.
I think I'm going to be depressed if I stay here any longer!
There's no one to talk to or hang with.
This is a prison.
Do you want to go back to Mrs Yeo's house?
Yes, yes! That goes without saying.
What are you going to do with the ring?
I thought you wanted to go back to Mrs Yeo's.
Don't you want to?
How are you?
It's been a while.
Are you going home?
Yes. I already got dinner ready.
I was cleaning upstairs and saw your clothes left behind.
Please take them with you today.
I think it's because we left in a hurry.
Is Mrs Yeo home?
She's in but she took some pills and just fell asleep.
Really? I wanted to at least say hello.
See you again.
- Okay. - Bye.
Mrs Yeo.
You'll soon be begging me to move back in.
Just you watch.
Once I put this back in place,
people will think you made up the incident under the influence.
