(The Women's Room)
(Episode 29)
What's this?
Then Ji-sub didn't enter Chef Jin's office at all?
But Hee-soo said she was with him?
Are you okay, Ms Min?
Could you make a copy of this and erase the original?
Pardon?
I'll take responsibility for it.
Please.
Then they lied to me?
What kind of tea is this?
This is a special tea that just came in.
We're serving it to guests in the special suites.
It has a great aroma.
Thank you.
Do you have any children?
Why do you ask?
You look lonely.
My grandmother lives in the countryside by herself.
Seeing you reminds me of her.
Really?
Can I massage your shoulders?
I just got a massage at the hotel sauna.
Okay.
If you need anything else...
Could you call the vice president for me?
Yes, Ma'am.
How dare she pry and ask personal questions.
Chef Jin.
I have something to tell you.
I'm really busy right now.
Then could I see you later today?
I won't take too much of your time.
Where have you been all day?
I was just...
What's wrong?
Did something happen?
No, nothing.
You don't look good.
Maybe you're overworked.
I should buy you something good to eat tonight.
What would you like to eat?
I have an engagement tonight.
An engagement?
Are you meeting a friend?
I'm meeting someone I owe an apology to.
Someone you owe an apology to?
Who could that be?
Where are you meeting this person?
I'll take you.
It's okay.
You can get back to work.
Have you seen Kyung-chae today?
Yes, why?
She seems weird.
She didn't look me in the eye and seemed like she knew something.
She's different today.
What are you worried about?
Are you worried that she'll find out about our lie?
That you didn't go to Chef Jin's office?
And that the incident happened because you didn't notify him?
I don't feel good about lying to her.
She'll be hurt if she finds out the truth later.
Are you that worried?
Don't you care about how I might feel seeing you worry about her?
You said that I matter to you now.
That's a separate issue.
A separate issue?
I see.
Wait.
Aren't you from the security department?
I am.
What were you doing at the vice president's office?
The vice president wanted a copy of a CCTV recording.
A CCTV recording?
Which one?
From three days ago on camera 17. The one by the chef's hallway.
From three days ago in front of the chef's hallway?
Do you have the original?
No, we've deleted the original as requested by the vice president.
I just delivered the copy to her.
I just saw a man from the security come out of Kyung-chae's office.
He just delivered the CCTV recording of Chef Jin's hallway...
from the day of the incident.
What?
Does this mean she knows I didn't go to Chef Jin's office?
I didn't know Kyung-chae would check the CCTV footage!
Where are you going?
We need to come up with a strategy!
A strategy?
Are you saying we should lie to her again?
We must if we need to.
Why?
Are you going to make a confession now?
Then what about me who lied for you?
What about me?
How is he doing?
Thank you so much for being so understanding.
Let's get together soon.
Did you find out who's at fault?
I told you to check the CCTV videos to find out.
I checked but the camera in front of Chef Jin's office malfunctioned,
so we don't have anything.
Really?
Are you telling the truth?
If you're trying to cover up for Ji-sub...
It's not like that.
I want to find out who's at fault too.
I don't want to leave anyone aggrieved.
It's the truth.
If you don't believe me, you can check for yourself.
It's okay.
If you say so, I believe you.
Were you in a meeting with Mr Min?
Do you have something to tell me?
I think you do.
Well.
I...
I was just passing by.
I'll get going now.
Mrs Han?
Yes, Mrs Yeo.
Did you call for me?
This is your pay for this month.
Thank you for your hard work.
It's my pleasure.
Thank you.
What's this?
Take it.
I felt bad about not giving you anything.
For me?
I'm not sure if I should take it.
I shouldn't just take money from people.
You can take it.
You know we owe you and Hee-soo a lot.
This won't make up for everything, but get what you want with this.
I'll take it with gratitude if you insist!
Thank you!
Mrs Yeo has changed.
How can she pay both of us when I worked so hard every day!
Let's see.
Oh my!
How much is this?
One, two, three...
3,000 dollars!
It's 3,000 dollars!
Mine is half of hers!
This is too much!
I should just quit working here.
I won't be here from tomorrow on!
Oh my!
A man came to see Hee-soo at the hotel?
The front desk clerk said that?
She doesn't know their relationship?
Okay.
Tell her to take a picture of him if he comes by again.
And don't leave any traces of your investigation on Hee-soo.
It's okay.
We can't do anything about meeting the detective.
Just be careful from now on.
She's not easy to deal with.
We can't take her lightly.
Thank you for coming.
I promised to be here.
So what is it that you want to say?
I'm sorry.
For what?
I made a big mistake.
I didn't believe you and doubted you.
I even held you responsible for it all.
How did you find out?
I can't tell you.
I don't think Ms Hee-soo or Mr Han would've told you the truth.
I don't know how to apologise to you.
Do you believe me now?
Tell me that you believe me.
I believe you.
It's okay.
Let's just forget about this.
You're sorry, right?
It's all over your face.
If you're that sorry, pick up the tab tonight.
Of course I will.
But could I do anything else for you?
There is one thing.
Call me by my first name when we're not at work.
Forget Chef Jin and Ms Min or anything like that.
Let's call each other as Soo-hyuk or Kyung-chae.
And spend time with me this weekend.
How about it? Isn't it easy?
I'm getting a free meal tonight.
Please enjoy.
I really enjoyed the meal tonight.
It was delicious.
I'm glad.
You're a chef so it's not easy to pick a place...
to eat with you, Chef Jin.
You did it again!
You called me Chef Jin again.
Do it again.
Everyone calls me Chef Jin all day at work.
Must I hear it from you outside of work?
Soo-hyuk.
That's good, right?
What did you say?
I couldn't hear you.
I didn't hear you.
You can't whisper like that. Try it again.
Thank you for today, Soo-hyuk.
This is so touching.
It's the first time someone called my name so affectionately.
I'm more thankful to you for believing me now.
Thank you, Kyung-chae.
Let's go.
Say my name again.
Soo-hyuk.
Louder.
Say it again.
Soo-hyuk.
You're finally home. You're late today.
Were you waiting for me?
Do you have something to tell me?
No, nothing.
Really?
I see.
We're closing this case since Chef Jin...
wrote a letter of apology.
Really?
I'm glad it's over.
I was worried this might get out of hand.
(Han Ji-sub)
Please leave a message after...
Why are you still here?
Aren't you going to work?
I'm not going there.
What? What do you mean?
I don't want to talk about it.
I don't care if they have nothing to eat.
I have my pride, too.
What's going on?
What got you upset?
It's my phone.
Hello.
Yes, I'm Han Byung-gook.
Me?
Today?
There? Okay. I'll see you later.
Who was it?
Someone called to see if I wanted to work for her.
Really?
Are you getting a job?
I'm not sure. I'll have to go and see.
Mrs Han, where's Mr Min's breakfast?
Yes, I'm coming!
Yes, it's ready.
Where's Mrs Han?
She quit as of yesterday saying she won't take it anymore.
She's so irresponsible.
Really?
Mr Min, it's time for breakfast.
Thank you.
Eun-chae, it's time for breakfast!
Come on out!
Wait!
Mr Min, please have a seat.
Thank you.
I'm not a good cook but I worked really hard to prepare these.
I hope you enjoy them.
Sure, I will.
Daddy!
- Good morning! - Yes, Eun-chae.
Are you enjoying the centre?
Yes, I love going there!
They look so good.
What would you like?
The meat.
The meat?
Here you go.
He's so gorgeous and elegant.
It'd be so nice if he were my husband.
With my luck, would that ever happen?
Did you have a good time with your friend?
Yes.
There's something I need to hear from you.
Something you need to hear?
I had hoped you'd bring it up first.
That's why I waited.
It's about the incident with the VIP guest...
Please sign these for me.
Since you're both here, let me ask you both.
It's about the incident with the VIP guest...
Mr Han, the front desk was urgently looking for you.
Why don't you go now?
I have to go.
I don't know what this is about but let's talk later.
I asked him to lie.
He didn't want to, but I made him lie.
You did?
People can make mistakes,
but covering them up with a lie is inexcusable.
I did it for you.
For me?
Yes, it was for you.
I had no other option.
If Mr Min found out it was Mr Han's fault,
what do you think would've happened?
Mr Min almost fired him because of your relationship with him.
I'm sure he would've forced you to break up with him.
I was trying to help you.
I was so worried about the two of you that I had to lie.
But Chef Jin got all the blame because of the two of you.
I was shocked, too.
I didn't know lying was so difficult.
You should've at least told me the truth.
I didn't know it'd get so out of hand.
I didn't know Chef Jin would end up writing a letter of apology.
I just wanted to cover up for Mr Han.
I understand, but your method was wrong.
I know.
I know it's inexcusable.
I understand how you feel.
I was really disappointed in you and Ji-sub since yesterday.
I wasn't sure how to face you.
I'm sorry.
I know you must've felt betrayed.
It won't be easy to forgive.
But think about Mr Han.
He must love you so much to have done this.
If he gets fired, he won't be able to see you.
I'm so sorry.
I know it won't be easy to forgive me.
I will go to Mr Min and tell the whole truth.
No.
It's okay.
Since it turned out this way, dad doesn't have to know.
No, I lied to you and Mr Min.
I don't think I can live with this.
You said you did this for Ji-sub and me.
I know you meant well so it's okay.
It was the first time I ever lied to you.
That's what makes me so sad.
I know, you're always honest with me.
What happened?
What do you think happened?
How do you do this?
Are you curious?
I know Kyung-chae.
She's very sympathetic.
If I earn her sympathy, I knew she'll forgive me.
Now you know that you need me, right?
Keep that smile only for me.
Don't smile like that in front of Kyung-chae.
You...
What kind of woman are you?
Are you only curious now?
I've always been curious about you.
Please take a look at this.
What's going on between you two?
What do you mean?
You really don't know?
What I saw that night...
I don't know what you saw that night,
but what's important is that nothing happened.
Kyung-chae still loves Mr Han and still plans to marry him.
Nothing has changed between them.
And you call yourself her friend?
I guess I need to be careful when I make friends.
Is your friendship about backstabbing your friends?
I've never backstabbed Kyung-chae and I don't plan to.
So it's okay for Kyung-chae to find out about this?
I guess that would make it really hard...
not for us but for Kyung-chae.
You can take this.
Do you love Ms Min Kyung-chae?
I'm asking if you love her.
Why must I answer you?
Because I saw something very shocking the other night.
I just let it pass because it was so unbelievable.
But I see today that I shouldn't let it pass.
What's your relationship with Ms Hee-soo?
Ji-sub.
Chef Jin, you're here too?
I heard from Hee-soo about the incident.
You didn't notify Chief Jin about the order...
I'm sorry.
I don't know what to say.
I should've confessed before Mr Min even if I get fired on the spot.
I'm sure I disappointed you.
Even with the lie about my father...
I seem to only disappoint you.
So why did you lie?
I didn't want to lose you.
If Mr Min found out it was my fault, don't you know what he'd do?
He probably would have banned me from your life.
I thought being a coward was better than losing you.
- Actually... - You don't have to explain.
Hee-soo told me everything.
She told me you didn't want to lie.
I heard she insisted on it.
Nice to meet you.
I'm Han Byung-gook.
Please sit down.
I'm...
You can just call me Mrs Na.
Yes, Mrs Na.
Have you decided to work for me?
I guess that's why you're here.
What does being a personal secretary entail?
It's just running small errands for this old woman.
I see.
But you look quite familiar.
Have I seen you before?
Really?
Yes.
Look around. Isn't this so much better than the playground?
We're both adults.
It's embarrassing to be going to playgrounds and bakeries.
I like this place.
I like it because I'm with Mr Pil-sum.
I told you it's Pil-sub, not Pil-sum.
Are you going to keep calling me "Mister"?
I'm too good-looking to be called "Mister".
Call me Pil-sub.
I don't expect honey or darling from you.
But "Mister" is too much.
Can't you call me Pil-sub?
Pil-sub?
What shall I do?
You have a milk moustache.
We have no napkins here. What shall I do?
How should I clean that off?
Mr Pil-sum?
Did I hurt you?
This is not how it's supposed to go.
Yes.
I'm Jin Soo-hee.
A bag?
Was it at the club?
I'll come and get it.
Then that loser didn't steal it?
Someone must be talking about me.
My ear is so itchy.
(Eun Hee-soo)
Weren't you sleeping yet?
I was about to.
What brings you here?
I just wanted to talk to you.
Come sit here.
I'm sorry about the incident.
You're still talking about that?
You've explained yourself and I fully understand.
Are you here because of that?
You didn't have to.
I'm really sorry.
I'll never lie to you again.
(Han Ji-sub)
Why are you calling so late?
I thought I should call you.
I heard from Kyung-chae that you covered for me.
I can do that for you anytime.
For you?
Who is it? Your boyfriend?
Is that why you called?
You know that "Thank you" is not what I want to hear.
Don't you know what I want to hear?
I know.
Then say it.
You're a better woman than I thought.
That's not what I wanted, but I'll take it for now.
I know you'll be telling me what I want to hear soon enough.
You have a boyfriend?
When did this start?
You were in a secret relationship?
We just met.
I let you come with me on my dates with Ji-sub.
I even asked you to be a witness to our love.
When are you going to introduce him to me?
Soon.
You're my friend so you'll be the first to see him.
I'm so curious to meet him.
It'll be great to go out together with Ji-sub for a double date.
I guess.
Did you know who was listening when you called last night?
Kyung-chae was there.
What if she catches on?
She'll never catch on.
I won't let her catch on.
Why do you look at me like that?
You make it seem like we're doing something bad.
Aren't we?
Does it make you feel better to say that?
We'll be doing much worse things than this.
So you can't say we've done something bad already.
I haven't even begun with the most evil things.
The most evil things?
It's been a long time since we've eaten here.
Why didn't you want to go to the cafeteria?
I just wanted to do something different.
Are you eating here?
Why don't you join us?
I'm on duty.
It's okay. Have a seat.
When are you going to introduce your boyfriend to me?
You're so impatient.
When the time is right.
Hee-soo is seeing someone.
I heard them talk on the phone last night.
They seemed to be so in love.
I forgot that I have a meeting.
I have to go now.
Since we're on the topic, should I introduce him to you tonight?
That'd be great.
Can Ji-sub come with me?
Of course.
What is he like?
He's a nice guy.
He's a real gentleman.
I'm so curious!
I thought we were the only ones dating secretly.
I didn't know you were, too.
Well, I guess I'm dating secretly, too.
But he's late.
Is someone coming?
Didn't I tell you?
Hee-soo's boyfriend is coming tonight.
Hee-soo's boyfriend?
Do you think I will be proposed at a grand place like you?
I'm sure your boyfriend would do that for you.
Do you think so?
Do you think I will be proposed at a grand place like that, Mr Han?
I'm sure you can.
Do you really think so?
I can't wait.
I wonder how he will do it.
Do you think he will make it wonderful?
Well, I guess so.
I wonder how wonderful it will be.
Then you can the witness to my love on that day.
Sure, I will.
But he's late.
Why don't you call him to see if he's not lost?
He's here.
He's here?
Where?
He's next to you.
Next to me?
Mr Han Ji-sub.
He is the man I was talking about.
