(Episode 4)
(Personnel Appointment Notice)
(Joo Ye Eun is promoted as a manager from an assistant manager.)
What is this?
Did Joo Ye Eun just become a manager?
This is absurd.
The sales of the new product went up...
thanks to Mi So's project.
Why did Joo Ye Eun get the promotion?
People will always get their back stabbed at work.
Are you okay, Mi So?
It's Mr Oh.
I'm sure you're disappointed, Ms Lee.
I thought things looked promising for you...
with the success...
of your project and all.
I was shocked, too.
Your performance reviews are not too great.
It's good to be popular among your colleagues,
but try to be closer to your bosses, too.
Mr Kim is rough in speech,
but he's easy to deal with.
Did this happen...
- because of my performance reviews? - What else could it be?
Did you give me a disadvantage...
because I just got pregnant?
No way, that's not how this company works.
I know that you are an open-minded man.
- But others are... - You'll get it the next time.
Okay?
- Will there be a next time? - Of course.
Everyone knows that you are good at your job.
Hello, I'm new, and my name is Choi Moon Jung.
- Nice to meet you. - Welcome.
- Be good. - Okay.
So why didn't you get the promotion?
You should ask Mr Kim.
What are you looking at?
Did you get pregnant without seeing this coming?
Is this my new seat?
Ms Joo, why did you apply for our team?
I thought advertisement and promotion was more of my thing.
Ms Lee.
Can you work with Ms Joo as your boss?
If you can't, pack up.
Why did you let this happen?
Don't make things worse, Mr Yoo.
Think about all the confusion we have to go through.
Why did you make a mess out of this team?
My goodness.
I can't work with all the noise.
I'm angry about this, too.
Think about what Mi So is going through.
What is this?
Are you quitting?
Didn't you catch my name on the personnel appointments?
Where are you going?
I'm transferring to Marketing Team Two.
Did you apply to be transferrd to our team?
Wow, I guess our team is popular.
- Where are you going? - I need to get some air.
How can life be so difficult?
Here, take this.
How could you give coffee to your pregnant wife?
I'll drink it.
What did Mr Oh say?
He said that I received bad performance reviews.
I knew this would happen.
Where are you going?
I'm going to settle this with Dung Kim.
Calm down.
How can I calm down?
I can't control my anger when it comes to you.
This is because of my pregnancy.
Is that what Mr Oh said?
No, he only mentioned about my performance review,
but I feel it.
Mr Oh wouldn't let that happen.
It would've been difficult...
for him to deal with the conservative company executives.
How can this happen?
It's not a sin to be pregnant.
What could we do?
This society only tells us to have children without giving solutions.
I have to deal with the problems followed by.
We need to talk.
Congratulations on your promotion.
I didn't mean to make you feel uncomfortable.
I don't think you should be speaking to me like this.
- What? - This isn't a playground.
We're at work, so you should address me by my title.
Did you just talk down to me?
Wouldn't it be weird for me to be polite to you...
- as a manager? - But still, how could you...
- You were polite until yesterday. - I know.
I wouldn't do this to you...
if you got the promotion, Mi So.
This isn't easy for me, either.
First time is always hard,
but you'll get used to it over time.
Don't you think so?
Hey, what is this?
What's going on in this room?
Will you get me a cup of juice, Mi So?
Mi So?
Are you guys on a first-name basis now?
Yes, Ms Lee thinks it'll be better for her, too.
Why did you let her do that?
- What? - Do you think names are...
something you should be concerned about now? Is that so?
What are you doing?
I'm getting her juice.
You have no self-respect.
Here's your juice, Ms Joo.
Thank you.
Can you do this every morning?
- Hey. - Every morning?
- You don't want to? - Mi So got a blow...
- from Joo Ye Eun. - No, I can do that.
- What do you mean? - Please do that.
- She's talking down to Mi So. - Really?
Yes, it seems so.
Ms Joo.
I need to talk to you.
Get him.
Let go of me.
Don't be a fool.
If it's foolish of me to stand up for my wife,
I am more than glad to become a fool.
- You're unique. - What?
Don't people usually love their spouse less over time?
But that's not your case.
You should meet someone you love dearly to see...
how angry you feel at this situation.
What are you looking at?
Doing this...
won't help Mi So.
Lee Mi So is my wife.
Move away.
- Where are you going? - To the sales team.
I need to tell people about this news.
This is why everyone calls you Trumpet Yoo.
Ms Joo is not an ordinary woman.
Your wife's career is...
going to end soon, you fool.
It'll be fine as long as Dung Kim stays out.
I don't care.
Let go of me.
I won't let that happen.
- Bye. - Goodbye.
- See you. - Goodbye.
Bye.
You moved in downstairs, right?
Where's your backpack? Aren't you going home?
I have full-day class.
What time do you go home?
It's different every day.
If it gets late, I stay until 8pm.
- I'm envious. - Why is that?
I have to go to academies when I get home.
But you can play here.
I'm envious of you for going home.
Really?
Do you want to come over to my house today?
My grandma is so nice.
I have to ask my mum for permission.
Play with me. Come on.
It's important for the head office to engage in marketing,
but on top of that,
we should reinforce marketing at the stores.
Whatever.
We have new members, so let's go for team dinner.
Again?
It's not like we go every day.
Make sure you don't have any other plans.
It's because his family is abroad.
He loves team dinners.
Aren't we supposed to have it after personnel appointments?
Why are you talking behind his back?
I'm going to team dinner.
Of course, I'm coming.
(Bang Geul)
- Yes, Bang Geul. - Mummy.
You know the boy who moved in downstairs?
His name is Min Ho.
And?
Min Ho wants me to come over to his house today.
You can't.
Just stay in the kindergarten.
Are you coming home early today?
No, I have team dinner,
but Daddy...
I'll play at Min Ho's house until Daddy comes home.
- Bye. - Bang Geul.
Bang Geul.
She can't play at Joo Ye Eun's house.
What's wrong?
My daughter...
wants to play with her son at her house.
How do they know each other?
Joo Ye Eun moved in downstairs.
When it rains, it pours.
What now? It's awkward enough already.
But I can't stop them from playing with each other because of us.
- Mother! - Yes.
I'm home, Mother.
- What's that? - I'm going to make some kimchi.
The kimchi is turning sour. I should have made some beforehand.
It's a lot of work.
Let's do it together.
And we can't forget this when we make fresh kimchi.
I bought some pork, too.
Ye Eun is so lucky.
Where did she find a husband like you?
My only wish is that she is grateful to have me.
I almost forgot. I need to pick up Min Ho.
I'll go.
Ye Eun won't be happy if she finds out.
She's very concerned about...
other people finding out that you don't work.
Why is she so concerned about what other people think?
- I'll go, okay? - All right.
- Hello. - Hello.
- Mummy! - You're back.
- Min Ho - Good job.
- Mum! - Grandma, this is Bang Geul.
She's going to play with me today.
It's been a while, Bang Geul.
- Hello. - Hi.
Aren't you hungry, Min Ho? We're making bossam today.
You can't have bossam without fresh kimchi.
I'm making kimchi with your dad today.
Yes! I'm going to have it all.
That's my puppy. You love to eat.
Let's go. Come on.
Daddy, I'm hungry. Hurry up.
Wow, there are so many cabbages!
Oh, dear. Who's this pretty girl?
It's Bang Geul. She lives upstairs.
- Hello, I'm Kim Bang Geul. - Your name is pretty as your face.
- Bang Geul, Bang Geul. - Daddy.
Can I skip my classes today?
Bang Geul came to play with me.
I'm not sure. Mummy will be upset if she finds out.
We can keep it a secret.
Please.
Come on. Please.
Please.
Fine, I'll let it go.
Let's play!
All right.
Good. Okay, lady and gentleman.
Wait just for a moment. I'll make you kimchi and bossam.
- Yes! - Good job.
If Min Ho skips his classes, Ye Eun will be very upset.
I'll tell her that Min Ho isn't feeling well.
He needs to play with his friends sometimes.
I agree, but still...
What?
Is that true?
Okay.
(The Consent Form)
What is it?
My goodness.
Why do you need to talk to me alone?
Read this.
This is the report for the launching show.
I realised that the supplier has been changed.
What? Daehan Electronics?
When did this change?
Wasn't it Youngjin Industry before?
I spoke to the sales team earlier,
and they said it's a new company.
Isn't this odd?
Why would we designate this company as the supplier?
I guess they had better performance records.
How would we know that?
They're new.
Maybe they did a great job doing other businesses.
We're the first.
Hey, don't act up.
- Keep quiet. - What?
You caused a commotion when we changed it to Youngjin Industry.
You knew that the previous supplier belonged to Mr Choi's nephew.
During the meeting, you acted like a mad person.
I also got insulted because I was your superior.
They hiked up the unit costs.
Mr Choi resigned because of it.
I'm just not interested in this.
If you're going to stir up trouble, do it on your own.
I want to last long without getting myself into trouble.
Can you just mention it to Mr Oh?
- Why would I do that? - Because you're the senior manager.
Look. Let's say there is an issue.
The sales team let it go,
so why would the marketing team make a fuss?
- I guess it didn't bother them. - Then let's make sure...
it doesn't bother you, either.
- You must be out of your mind. - Mr Yoo.
- Please reconsider. - Let go.
- Let go! - Hold on.
I have to take this call.
Hello?
Yes, I'm Kim Jae Min.
What? She's in the hospital?
Ms Lee, you have a problem.
Your mother-in-law has been hospitalised.
What? Why?
Ask your husband for details.
Why is she in the hospital?
I spoke to her yesterday.
Where are you going? Aren't you joining the team dinner?
My mother-in-law is in the hospital.
You need to separate work from your personal life.
Let me go. It's not like we are having a meeting.
No way.
Hello?
For today?
Sure.
I have dinner plans.
What was that about?
Excuse me.
My daughter...
is playing with your son at your place.
What are you talking about?
Min Ho is resting at home because he's not feeling well.
That's strange. She told me she's at his place.
Bang Geul, where are you?
Min Ho is sick.
What?
Okay, I'm coming.
This is driving me nuts.
(Seoul Hospital)
Mum.
Why are you here?
Your friend called to let me know you got a gallstone removed.
Gosh, what a way to make me a horrible son!
It's not cancer.
It was just removing a small stone,
so why would I call you for it?
Then you should have behaved yourself.
Why did you fight with another patient?
That old lady was being totally ridiculous.
I kept telling her I didn't call you because I didn't want to bother you,
but she made a fool of me by saying that I don't have a son.
And she bragged about her son so much.
That crazy witch.
What did you say? "That crazy witch"?
I apologise.
- I'm sorry. - Goodness.
- Oh, gosh. - Let's keep quiet for once.
- Sit me up. - What are you going to do?
I'm coming over to your house.
You just got your surgery. You can't go today.
Your place is as big as a palace, so why would I stay here?
Goodness.
It's only 90m². I would think 200m² house is a baseball stadium then.
You fool.
We are supposed to be on the same page.
Just stay here.
Get a check-up while you are here.
Look, old lady.
Did you just hear that?
My son is going to get me a check-up.
Has your son ever done this for you?
I'm in so much pain already. Stop bothering me.
Where's Mi So?
She went to pick up Bang Geul.
Have a bite, Bang Geul.
There you go, son.
Try it.
- There you go. - Wow, Dad.
I've never had anything better than what we have here.
Of course.
- Bang Geul, is it good? - Yes, it's really good.
You can come often. I'll make you more food.
- Okay. - Okay.
- Is that Ye Eun? - She was supposed to be late.
Honey, I thought you had to go to a team gathering.
I'm home because you said Min Ho is sick,
but I guess not.
Well, he was...
sick before,
but he got better now.
Do you think you are making any sense?
I didn't send him to the academy because his friend came over.
Hello, I am Kim Bang Geul.
I need to talk to you.
How can you let him ditch his academy?
He brought his friend home for the first time after we moved.
It'll be difficult for him to adapt to his new academy as it is.
How can you let him miss it?
I am sorry. I was wrong.
- Please do things as I tell you. - Honey.
I told him to stay home.
You stay out of this.
Missus, if you keep doing this,
I won't see you any more.
How can you say that to your mum?
Hey, stop fighting.
Who's here at this hour?
Hello.
Mummy.
- I'm so sorry that she came over. - It's all right.
Did you have fun?
I hope nothing like this happens again, Ms Lee.
Do you know each other?
She's my team member.
My goodness.
What a small world!
I'm sorry.
Bang Geul, let's go.
Let's go visit your grandma at the hospital.
Is she sick?
Let's go.
Goodbye.
- Goodbye. - Goodbye.
We should've let Bang Geul stay.
It's not helpful for her to visit the hospital.
Just leave.
Min Ho is watching.
It's nothing, so calm down.
- Min Ho, see you tomorrow. - Okay.
- Wash up before you sleep. - Good night.
Min Ho, what did I say about going to your academy?
I'm sorry.
My goodness.
Where are you going?
I'm the one who should be angry.
Why is he mad?
I'll spend the night there. You can come home with Bang Geul.
You won't be helpful. She'll be more comfortable with me.
I'll be there soon.
Excuse me.
Hello, Ma'am.
She's crazy about Min Ho's education,
so please understand.
Of course, any mother would be mad...
if their child missed their class.
If it's okay with you,
do you want me to babysit Bang Geul?
What?
It can't be good for her to go to the hospital.
I'll take care of her until her father gets home,
- so you can go ahead. - It's all right.
- How could I ask for such a favour? - Don't worry about it.
I'm good friends with her now.
- Right, Bang Geul? - Yes.
Mum, she's really nice.
Could I ask for the favour then?
- Her father will be back soon. - There's no need to rush.
Thank you.
- Thank you, really. - It's nothing.
What happened?
Why didn't she call you?
She would never let her kids learn about her weaknesses.
Where's Bang Geul?
Joo Ye Eun's mother is babysitting her right now.
What? How did that happen?
It's a long story.
You're here, Mi So.
Yes, are you doing okay?
Jae Min, you go home now.
No, I'll stay.
She's pregnant.
Men aren't allowed to attend a patient.
Yes, you can go home.
Come on.
I'm sorry.
- Thanks for the trouble. - This isn't troublesome.
She must take care of me as a daughter-in-law.
- I'll be here tomorrow. - Don't come. You're a bother.
- Goodness. - Goodbye.
Yes.
Can you really come over?
That's such a relief.
Yes, thank you.
Is someone coming?
I have to meet this person.
It won't take long, Mother.
I'm hungry. Bring me porridge when you come back.
Okay, I'll be back.
- Hello? - Where are you?
I'm at the hospital.
Park Eun Jung is a very important client.
Treat her with respect.
Of course.
Why do I have to...
visit his client's mother at the hospital?
Excuse me.
I think you left this.
Thank you.
Please press the button.
Check the amount and press the confirm button.
We are already indebted with 18,000 dollars.
Where will I find 2,000 dollars every month?
Are you the babysitter?
- Are you the mother? - Yes, hello.
I'm sorry that I had to ask you to come.
And...
here is what you asked for.
You have to make a deposit if you want to find a resident babysitter.
Of course. Please take a good care.
Okay, was it just one infant?
I have a seven-year-old daughter, too.
Do you have two kids?
I did not know that.
- I guess there was a mistake. - I can't take care of two kids.
Please find someone else.
Ma'am, think about it one more time.
How can I take care of 2 kids for 2,000 dollars?
I'll need at least 2,500 dollars.
- Excuse me? - No.
I can't take care of 2 kids even with 2,500 dollars.
Ma'am.
What do I do?
I can't take a childcare leave.
What are you doing here?
You know that...
I hate it when Min Ho skips his academy.
I won't ask your mum to come from now on.
- What about Min Ho? - I'll take care of him.
I barely lecture anyway.
- Nonsense. - Why not?
I can't let you treat your mum like that.
It's not good for Min Ho's education which you're crazy about.
She frustrates me with everything she does.
She helped you through all these years.
Your father passed away as soon as they got married,
and she had to work at a restaurant to put you through college.
And you aren't even her biological daughter.
That's the least she had to do.
My father passed away after he stood as a surety...
- for her cousin. - I won't say it twice.
I'm babysitting Min Ho starting tomorrow.
Fine, I get it. I'll be more careful.
- Aren't you coming in? - Go ahead.
I need to stay away from you to make myself calm down.
Do you think I'd be scared then?
I know you're scared.
Dad.
- Hi, Bang Geul. - You're here.
I'm not sure how I should thank you.
Thank you for babysitting her.
It's nothing.
Bang Geul is a good kid.
It was good to talk to her.
How's your mother doing?
She just had a surgery, so it's hard for her.
Elderly people suffer much after a surgery,
- so be good to her. - Okay.
Goodbye, Bang Geul.
- Goodbye. - All right.
I'll walk you out...
and grab a taxi for you.
I don't need a taxi. Thank you.
Bang Geul, stay home, okay?
Thank you so much.
- I'm so sorry for your trouble. - You can go back in.
I can't do that.
Don't leave Bang Geul alone. Go inside.
Let me get a taxi for you.
Oh, gosh.
- You're so pleasant. - You're being too kind.
Why are you out here together?
