[Episode 11]
What am I doing? I should make rice first.
Ahn Dan Tae.
What is all this?
I brought you breakfast. You have to eat so you can leave for work. Go in.
Let me carry that.
No, it's okay. Go inside.
Okay.
Please eat this.
Okay.
And this one, too.
Gong Shim, I ate really well. It was really good.
Here's water.
Thank you.
Ah, with my fortune, I get to enjoy this kind of luxury. Thank you so much.
If this is a luxury, I'll let you enjoy it even for another 100 years.
Really?
Why is it so hot in here suddenly?
It's really hot, right?
Yes.
It's just me here, so it's okay. You can take off your wig.
Huh?
It's just between us anyway.
If it's too hot, take off your wig. I'll take it off for you.
Oh no, oh no. No matter what,
how can I show you my bald spot that's this big?
Where did it go?
Gong Shim, your hair grew back!
Your bald spot is gone!
♫ My face is burning, burning, burning up ♫
Really?
Yes! The bald spot is gone, and your hair grew back in that spot!
Oh my god!
- Congratulations. - So much...
Yes, I love you.
♫ Found you. I found you. ♫
I love you?
♫ Why did we meet only just now? ♫
♫ We recognized each other with just one look ♫
♫ I was right to wait. That person was there for me ♫
♫ We found, met, and recognized each other ♫
Cooking is complete.
Cooking?
I fell asleep just now.
Ahn Dan Tae.
It looks like he left for work early.
[I found it at the Blue Sky Arboretum in Yangpyeong. It looks like something important, so please find its owner.]
Hello Lawyer, have you been well?
Ah yes, come here. Come here.
Yes.
Ho Joong, are you doing well?
Yes, thanks to you, I'm working hard and well.
But... you had a favor to ask?
Can you deliver this?
Of course. Where?
Leave this at the Star Group's information booth an hour from now.
An hour from now, Star Group building? I got it.
And don't tell them it was me.
Okay.
Thank you.
- I'll get going. - Bye.
I don't understand.
If he was going to be like this, he should've worked for a cleaning company.
Why did he become a secretary at our company?
Let's go.
President, someone left this for you.
What is this?
Isn't this our company's executive badge?
I found it at the Blue Sky Arboretum in Yangpyeong.
It looks like something important, so please find its owner.
There's no such thing! [Entrance to Blue Sky Arboretum]
How much does he know?
I said there's no such thing!
Tell me!
What is that? Who's going around losing our company badge?
President, Executive Director Yeom, it starts with you two doing well.
Did I give you this board member badge so you can leave it in your desk drawer?
You only wear it to the meetings I attend.
I told you so many times to wear it every day.
I'm going to find out whose badge this is.
Yes, Chairwoman.
Secretary Ahn, find out who lost this executive badge.
An executive badge?
You can only wear that badge when you become an executive.
Maybe it belongs to someone who has already retired.
A year ago, we changed the company's logo and made a new badge.
You're supposed to turn in the old one when you leave.
It's because someone committed fraud at the executive level with a badge they found.
Secretary Ahn, investigate immediately and let me know.
Yes, Chairwoman.
Aren't you Secretary Ahn?
You're working hard, Director.
Working hard, what?
I've checked that you are wearing your executive badge.
Oh my god, you scared me. Aren't you Secretary Ahn?
You worked hard, Director Moon.
I've checked that you're wearing your executive badge.
What a weird guy... what about the badges...
"You're going to be in trouble if you let someone else borrow your badge." (without honorifics)
Said the Chairwoman!
Ah, that—
Yes.
Secretary Ahn.
Yes, you're working hard.
Chairwoman wanted me to check if you had your company badge on.
Really?
Here. If you saw it, then leave because I'm a bit busy.
What are you doing? If you've seen this— Huh?
It's not there. Where did it go?
When did you lose it?
Lose it? Who lost it?
I have it. You saw it earlier in the hallway when I was on my way out.
You saw, right? It was definitely right here.
I didn't see it.
You didn't see it?
Where did you go out to?
Out to...
I met with people from the sport and leisure industry and Humane Society.
Then I'll check if you lost it when you were with them.
Ah, no it's okay. I can find that out myself. I think I know where it is.
When you find your badge, please notify me immediately.
Chairwoman told me to hurry and find out.
Okay, I got it.
Where did it go?
Yes! Yes! Yes!
Did it fall off then?
Oh, Judy. Come.
Aigoo, Judy.
Yes, yes, yes.
You're coming twice today?
Did you perhaps see a badge this size?
It's a badge you put on clothes.
I don't think I saw it. If I do, I'll let you know.
Ah, really? Okay.
Oh, this is a problem. I'm going to get in a lot of trouble.
Judy, where you going? Judy.
Judy, what's wrong? Why are you looking at me with those eyes?
Should I give you some snacks? Let's eat food.
The badge is here! Hey Judy, did you find it for me?
You brought it here. Wow, I found my badge.
Aigoo, my Judy, Judy. Smart dog, smart dog.
He's not here.
Director Seok is out at the moment.
Really? Where did he go?
Ah, I'm not sure. What should I report to him?
I'm checking to make sure everyone has their company badge on, but the last person I have to check is not here.
Can you ask him to give me a call when he comes back?
How many people did you check already?
Oh, Director Seok who is out right now,
and Director Kwak Seung Jin who is on a business trip in China.
I only have those two people left.
Director Kwak, you're going on a business trip to China?
Yes, I'm on my way to catch my flight, Executive Director.
I have to go a meeting right now, but I forgot my badge today.
Can you lend me your badge?
You cannot get in trouble with the Chairwoman.
Here you go.
Thank you, Director Kwak. I'll give this back to you when you return from China.
What do I do? Director Kwak comes back tomorrow.
Executive Director.
Is there something wrong?
Why are you asking me that kind of stuff?
You just didn't look so good, so I asked. Work hard.
[Dragon King Octopus, 10th Anniversary Octopus Character Contest]
Octopus character contest?
An evening train sounds very romantic.
We can have some hard-boiled eggs and beer too.
Why are you talking about romance when we're on our way to a funeral?
We're going to Suncheon, so we should be back tomorrow.
Your sister is away in Busan on a business trip, too.
Won't you be scared by yourself, Kong Shim?
Ay, am I a little kid? Go ahead.
Last time you were by yourself, from the ceiling,
a virgin ghost was like—
Why would you say something scary like that?
We'll get going. Make sure you lock the door well.
- From the ceiling, a virgin ghost— - Seriously! You're the scariest.
Since she's all alone, she might be scared.
Travel safe!
What is this?
Ghost...
I'm scared.
Where is it? Where is it?
Come on! I have to quickly—
Kong Shim! What's wrong!? What's going on!?! Open the door!
Open the door! Kong Shim! Kong Shim!
Ahn Dan Tae. I'm alive.
Kong Shim, what's wrong?
The electricity suddenly went out.
You know the electricity well, right?
- Electricity? - Hurry up and come.
Electricity?
Where is it?
My mom and dad went to a funeral, so they'll be back tomorrow.
And my sister is on a business trip and isn't home tonight, so I didn't know what I should be doing.
I was thinking all sorts of crazy things.
But, don't you know how to turn on the electricity?
I'm a liberal arts major, so I don't know about those that well.
In any case, you must be really scared with all the lights out like this.
We should try to make it come back on quickly.
My dad was a liberal arts major too, but he fixes electricity problems well.
But my school was co-ed. (Didn't do manly things)
Oh... Is that why?
I will search it on the internet.
It should be like a circuit breaker or something.
Circuit—
Oh my gosh, I nearly had a heart attack!
Because of you, I was even more frightened!
Oh, are you okay?
You should've checked carefully.
He didn't even pass away. We nearly went there and caused a scene!
Sh-Shoes... Shoes!
Quick, quick, quick! No, it's not there!
It's what I heard.
Why is it so dark?
Kong Shim, are you sleeping already?
The light went out.
Did it short-circuit? Hold on a sec.
Mom, Dad, why are you back?
Don't even talk about it; it makes me upset.
Why were we going to the funeral if the person is not dead?
That 97 year-old person whom they thought was going to die has regained his consciousness
and recognized all his children's faces.
They said he wouldn't be able to make it through the night.
That's just a figure of speech meaning it could happen any day now.
Were you here with the lights off like that?
The light just went off.
I'll go in.
What is this so late at night? We went out for no reason.
Now I'm just hungry.
It's me! Me.
Basically what happened is...
Recognized all his children's faces?
- Yes. - But why was I hiding here anyway?
It's a bit too late to go out now.
I know...
But if they ask what we've been doing in the dark, how do I answer?
Maybe you could earlier, but you definitely can't leave now.
No, you can't leave.
What do I do then?
Please just wait for a bit.
My parents will go to bed soon.
It won't take long, right?
It shouldn't be long, so get a little rest.
What?
Don't you smell a pig somewhere?
A pig?
No way, right now—
Are you hungry?
I can't get angry at you because of your wit.
It's because you said you're hungry.
Aiyoo! So cute!
Cheers!
What are you doing so late at night?
Huh? When you're hungry, it doesn't matter if it's night or day.
You'll be a while then.
There's no rush, so we should take our time and eat a lot.
Kong Shim, come here and eat with us.
Kong Shim, what are you doing?
The pork belly is killer.
Wrap it up in lettuce. They've just been picked, so they're really delicious.
Pork belly is best when cooked in its own fat.
How is it? Delicious, right?
It's delicious.
Hey! Where are you going?
I'm going to eat it quietly.
Why would you eat pork belly quietly?
She's a really special character.
Where are you?
Kong Shim, I could bear it if I didn't smell that pork belly, but I'm really dying here.
Here you go.
Why did you only bring me one?
Huh?
You have two hands.
Oh. Wait a minute.
Kong Shim!
A lot of meat with a generous amount of garlic and pepper paste
well-packed in two sheets of lettuce.
Okay.
♫ The feeling that only I don't know, my friends already know ♫
Two sheets... meat... a lot. ♫ They all make fun of me saying I'm still a kid ♫
♫ I want to know that electrifying feeling ♫
♫ My heart is shaking as though it will explode. Come on. ♫
- What? - You don't eat raw garlic.
I have no energy these days.
That's right, garlic gives you energy.
Kong Shim, tell Rooftop to come down.
We have plenty of pork.
Yeah, tell Rooftop to come down and eat some pork belly.
Go and tell him to come down.
It's okay. Rooftop seems to be really busy these days.
I'm going to eat quietly.
Hey! What's wrong with her?
I know. She's acting strange.
Why are you out here instead of hiding?
I can't enjoy my food if I'm hiding in here.
Did we commit a sin or something?
I'd rather go out now and eat it confidently.
No, you can't. it's too late.
No. I'm going to go out there and explain everything properly.
No, you can't. The situation is going to become weird! It's too late!
We're innocent, so who cares? I want to go out.
No, you can't. No. you can't.
- No, you can't. No. - Kong Shim, come out and eat.
Your sister is going to throw a fit about her clothes smelling like pork.
Huh? Where did she go?
Honey!
He passed away. He just passed away.
- Is that true? - Of course, it's true. He just passed away peacefully.
Then what do we do? It's too late now to go down there.
Did she go to the toilet? The last train has already left.
Is it my wrap?
Yes.
I think I'm going to get caught if I keep going back and forth like this.
I'll stay outside.
Even if it's tiring, just wait a little.
Earn loads of money.
Fool.
Con-artist.
[Should I tell him I like him?]
Should I tell him I like him?
Sorry, it was suffocating, right?
Can I go out now?
Yes. They went to bed so they could take the first train down to the funeral tomorrow.
Thanks for the pork belly.
I'm sorry.
No, it's okay. Sleep well.
I'll go now. Sleep well.
Yes.
The flight is at 3 PM.
I will ask you again.
Should I go or not go?
Go, Kong Shim.
Fancy seeing you here. Where are you going?
I'm going to work.
Ah... right. It's time for work.
How's your work life?
It's doable. Why are you following me?
I'm not following you; this is the way I'm going.
Ahn Dan Tae, do you like cold noodles or mixed noodle?
I like cold noodles.
Okay, I'll make a refreshing bowl of cold noodles.
I'm going to be a little late today.
If you're going to be late, then why didn't you say so earlier?
You only just asked me.
Oh... Then if you finish earlier, let me know.
Okay.
Earn lots of money!
I have not confirmed Director Kwak, who is away on a business trip to China,
and Director Seok, who is working outside of the office.
When will Director Kwak return from the business trip?
Yes, he's scheduled to come directly to work this afternoon.
Today, the executive who lost the badge will be revealed.
Yes. I think so.
You can see Joon Soo later. Then Director Kwak, that person lost his.
Chairwoman, will you give him a good scolding?
Hurry and confirm it.
Yes, okay, Chairwoman.
You came? I have to leave for an environmental seminar.
What? You're busy again?
Why is it so hard to eat with your mom?
I'm sorry; it will get better after today.
Why do you keep wrinkling the expensive jacket I bought you instead of wearing it?
Really, you don't wear anything I buy you.
I've been saving it to wear it for a special occasion.
Lately, you've become sly.
Oh, she's here. Come in.
You're meeting someone in my office?
Hello.
Lawyer Kong!
We were going to eat together, all three of us.
I'm sorry. I have to go to a seminar at a hotel.
No, it's okay.
Lawyer Kong, it'll have to be just the two of us eating together.
- Let's go. - Okay.
Joon Soo, are you taking the company car?
No, Uncle. I'm going to drive today.
Is that so?
Lawyer Kong, take good care of the madame.
Since she will become the most influential person at our company soon.
Yes, I understand.
Oppa, why would you follow me here and say such nonsense?
Are you going out? I need to go out now.
Let's go.
[Uncle]
Yes, Uncle.
No, I didn't leave yet.
Ah, that document? It should be in my office.
I'll find it and give it to you before I go. Okay.
Yes, Uncle. Oh, you found it?
Oh, not at all. Yes.
If we take out Director Seok Joon Soo, only Director Kwak Seung Jin is left.
Age, place of birth, there isn't anything that overlaps with father's.
Executive Director Yeom Tae Cheol borrowed your badge?
Two days ago, as I was leaving for the business trip,
Executive Director Yeom asked to borrow the badge, and I lent it to him.
And you have yet to get the badge back from Executive Director Yeom?
That's right.
Oh, Executive Director.
Executive Director Yeom, is there a chance that badge is the one you borrowed from Director Kwak?
I used it well, Director Kwak.
Of all days, on the day of the meeting, I left my badge at home.
The fact that I had to borrow his badge for the meeting because I didn't bring my badge,
don't tell the Chairwoman on me. Understand?
Ah, that document? It should be in my office.
I'll find it and give it to you before I go.
Okay, thanks.
I've taken care of the CCTV, and...
Bag.
Ah, I left the window open.
The drawing you drew made me happy.
Why don't you continue drawing from now on?
I am your fan.
All those popular artists must have started with only one fan.
[Kong Shim]
[Director Seok Joon Soo]
Hello?
Yes, Director?
Yes, I'm home at the moment.
What?
What are you going to do if all the documents were in your bag?
Right now?
Yes, I understand. I will be there soon.
Director.
I'm sorry for calling you all of a sudden.
What is it? Why didn't you call one of the company's employees?
Actually, I'm getting ready to start my own business.
Your own? Director, why?
Because, I don't want to hear "3rd generational owner of a big company".
I was secretly getting my own company ready without borrowing my family's name.
I agreed to a presentation for my company in front of investors,
but I lost my bag with the presentation documents inside.
And I've pushed back the meeting about two hours.
Two hours? What do we need to do first?
I told the company that I was going to a seminar at Shindaehan Hotel
while I was on my way to meet the investors.
Since it was a secret from the company, I couldn't call one of the employees.
I thought of you, Kong Shim.
Can you help me?
I don't think this is the time to talk about that.
What should I do first? Give me anything.
The document is on the cloud.
You just need to help edit the presentation.
Yes, I understand.
- Let's start. - Okay.
♫ I am hopelessly confused; I've been that way since I met you ♫
♫ What exactly is going on? What’s the matter? ♫
♫ With words I don’t know, I’m being tossed and turned here and there ♫
♫ I can only smile. How should I think about you? ♫
♫ You make it more difficult for me ♫
♫ I, who can only see you, am like a fool ♫
♫ Things are stuck in my head and I’m distracted ♫
♫ I, who didn’t know that either, can't stop it. ♫
♫ Even my heart is caught ♫
Here it is, Director.
I'm alive for now.
Kong Shim, thank you.
It's nothing.
But, I don't have time right now, so I'll call you later.
Sure, hurry up and go.
Thank you so, so much.
♫ You know it; I think so too ♫
♫ It’s what is always stuck in my throat ♫
♫ Maybe love ♫
So hectic.
My octopus!
Sir, the contest isn't closed yet, right?
Ah, the character contest? Just leave it on that table.
Yes.
Why are there so many?
[Kong Shim]
Sir, how many applicants are there?
I think about 100 people?
100 people?
From what I heard, many design and art students participated.
I wasn't expecting much, but it became a big event.
Yes.
Work hard.
This isn't so easy either.
Lawyer Kong, how are you like this?
It's fun eating with you and comfortable shopping with you.
It's because Madame is so accommodating.
It feels good and is fun, like I just made a new friend.
Thank you for seeing it like that.
- The car is here. - Ah, yes.
Omo, omo, no.
No, no.
Oh my, oh my.
Aigoo, I'm dying, I'm dying. My back.
Please get up.
My wrist, and back hurts so much.
I think I have to be admitted to the hospital.
Just give me ₩500,000 right now for the hospital bills.
Here, right now I, here-
Wait a minute, Madame. Don't give him money.
Who are you?
Sir, first of all, this car's black box recorded you jumping in front of this car.
Also it should be recorded on that car's black box as well.
Well, we should know once we see the recording.
I said, who are you? I'll report this to the police.
Why don't you?
[Star Group Legal Team] [Lawyer Kong Mi]
L-Lawyer?
Purposefully bumping into a car that was slowing down, also known as staging accident scam.
According to Chapter 39, Article 347 of the penal code,
if convicted, you can be sentenced to a maximum of 10 years or a fine up to ₩2,000,000.
And if you are a repeat offender, the sentence will increase to 15 years.
What would you like to do? Would you like to think it over at the police station?
I feel fine.
Omo, omo, who is that person? Is he a repeat offender?
Omo, omo, how can this-
Madame, you were very startled, right?
Omo, omo, how can she be so pretty?
I knew since the moment you rescued Joon Soo.
Mother, is she to your liking?
To my liking or not,
she's perfect.
Lawyer Kong, do you have a boyfriend?
What? I don't have one yet.
Omo, the men's eyes are twisted.
How can someone that pretty not have a boyfriend?
What do you think of my son, Joon Soo?
What?
You two should start dating.
Yes, you two are perfect.
Omo, omo, you would look good together.
Lawyer Kong, what do you think? I'll help you.
I think that's not something I can decide alone.
Doesn't that mean Lawyer Kong is okay, as long as my son says okay? Right?
Aiyoo, oh my God, oh my God.
My daughter-in-law and grand-daughter-in-law look good together. Really, really good together.
You pretty thing.
[Kong Shim]
Yes, it's Kong Shim, Director.
Kong Shim, earlier, did you get home safely?
Yes, Director.
Did it go well?
Kong Shim, the investors decided to invest in my proposition.
Really? It's a relief that it went so well. Congratulations!
It's all because of Kong Shim. I'm really thankful.
It was nothing.
I don't mean to be rude,
but have you still not found employment?
Yes, I have a part-time job.
I would like to be of help.
Just cheer me on with your heart.
If I introduce a job to you, would it hurt your pride?
Just like you, Director, without someone's help,
I want to do it myself.
I understand.
I will expect good news then.
Yes, okay.
Dan Tae, you can go now. You're tired.
You're the one who's tired from keeping watch instead of me.
It's fine because I still run my errands outside of visiting hours.
Aunt...
He will wake up, right?
He will wake up even just for a second, right?
I still have so much to talk to Father about.
Right...
Welcome. Oh, are you coming home now?
Hyung, you look really tired.
Goo Nam, I think there's just one thing that will help me gather strength.
What do you think that is?
Oh, Hyung, sorry, but the Emperor's Meal has been all sold out.
Hey, Goo Nam, did I tell you to hide one for me or not?
Sorry. They all knew I was hiding one and asked for it. I couldn't help it.
I'm very disappointed.
How can you give away my Emperor's Meal—
You didn't betray me, right?
Oh, it's not like that!
You're just getting home?
You were up here.
It's cooler out here.
You asked for the Emperor's Meal from Goo Nam, right?
You didn't now I already bought it, did you? Sit.
I thought a powerful enemy had appeared, but it was you.
Go ahead and eat. I was going to try it, too.
Here.
Thank you for the food.
Thanks for the food.
It's tasty.
When did you start to like the Emperor's Meal?
As soon as it came out.
Then don't you like anything else other than this?
Banana milk, sausage, ice sweet potato...
But... why are you asking things like that?
I was just curious.
But you're not wearing flip-flops today.
You've been wearing a white shirt a lot lately.
Are you doing that because you know women like it?
No, it's not like that.
Do you keep in contact with your dad?
How is your aunt?
I realized I haven't talked to your aunt in ages.
Ahn Dan Tae, do you resemble your mother or father?
By seeing it last time, you didn't look like your dad.
Am I wrong?
In some ways, I guess you do resemble your father.
Your mother must have been a beauty.
Kong Shim, I'm sorry, but I'll go in first.
You didn't even finish eating...
Are you sick?
It's because I'm tired.
[Should I tell him I like him?]
Ahn Dan Tae, do you resemble your mother or father?
Why am I living as Ahn Dan Tae?
When I'm not Dan Tae, why am I Dan Tae?
What's the matter, Father? Father! Father!
Who, in the world, am I?
Currently, there aren't any executives that ordered new badges.
Except for one person, I confirmed everyone else's badges.
Who is that one person?
Director Seok Joon Soo.
Joon Soo?
Yes, yesterday, as Director Seok Joon Soo was away at a seminar, I couldn't confirm his badge.
I just contacted him, and he said he'll be here.
Here he comes.
Joon Soo, you have the executive's badge, right?
That is... I'm sorry.
I lost it while I was at the Shindaehan Hotel for the seminar.
You lost the badge at the seminar?
I took a jacket with the badge on it, but a thief took it.
What? A thief?
The jacket got stolen?
Yes, the jacket and the bag.
I think they were after the laptop and the wallet,
but my jacket was with my bag.
That's why I lost the badge as well.
It looked like a big bag. How can you lose that?
Have you tried looking for it?
Yes.
A bag thief?
Does that mean the thief followed Joon Soo because of the bag?
He said the seminar was at Shindaehan Hotel.
Yes, it's Shindaehan Hotel.
Wasn't there a seminar yesterday sponsored by Star Group?
Can I take a look at the CCTV at the location near the seminar or parking lot?
There wasn't a seminar sponsored by Star Group at our hotel yesterday.
Then perhaps... on the seminar room users list,
can you confirm if Mr. Seok Joon Soo is on it?
Please wait a minute.
There isn't.
There isn't?
Are you sure?
Yes, I'm sure.
I understand. Thank you.
What happened?
I'm sorry.
[Dragon King Octopus] [First Prize Kong Shim]
It's really me?
There's no way!
What do I do?! That, that Kong Shim!
That's me! Kong Shim, that's me!
This is me, Kong Shim!
I drew this picture! I drew it!
Thank you, thank you.
Welcome, Dan Tae.
I came too unexpectedly, right?
Not at all. I'm a bit busy these days, so I'm out of it.
Did your seminar go well?
Yes, it did.
Wasn't there trouble because your lost your bag?
Your laptop was in it, too.
Is it possible to give a seminar without your documents?
Ah, even without the bag,
it was a seminar where I mostly had to listen to presentations, so it was okay.
But wasn't it sponsored by our company?
Well, I just winged it.
Dan Tae, I have some matters to take care of.
Ah okay. Then how about we go for beer after work?
Beer sounds great; let's do it.
Let's meet at the bar in front of here after work.
How about we drink at your rooftop house instead?
It was refreshing and good.
Sure, I'll have the beer and food ready.
Okay, then I'll just bring myself.
- Okay, see you later. - Okay.
Why is he lying?
Is it also a lie that he lost the badge?
[Geu Ong Shim]
Yes, Kong Shim?
When are you coming home, Ahn Dan Tae?
I have some matters to take care of today.
Is that so? Will you be late? I have something to show you.
I'm supposed to meet with someone.
I don't think I'll be able to see you today even if it's late.
Ah, that's too bad.
Aren't you going to ask me what I want to show you?
Sorry, Kong Shim. I can't really talk right now.
Oh, I'm sorry. Let's hang up then.
Wait!
It's okay even if it's late, so call me when you get home.
Okay, I understand.
Bye.
Why does he sound so down?
It must be Ahn Dan Tae!
Ahn Dan Tae.
Ta-da!
[1st Place: Kong Shim] [Prize: meal ticket worth 50 octopi]
What is this? How did this happen?
There was a character contest at the octopus house next door.
So I submitted,
and I came in first place!
Oh, really? Amazing!
That's great.
When did you submit a drawing without telling me?
To be honest, I really wanted to tell you.
It could've gone badly, so I was going to tell you only if I won, and I won!
That's really good.
Congratulations, Kong Shim.
Kong Shim, you're really cool.
I'm so happy.
For the first time in my life, I was able to do something with my own two hands.
I never won first place before.
I'm... so happy.
Why are you crying if you're happy? Don't cry.
Thank you.
This is all thanks to you, Ahn Dan Tae.
I didn't do anything. It was all because you did well.
Thanks to you, I got the courage and strength to do it.
If I think about it,
you're someone who's always giving me strength.
The person who called me pretty,
the person who became my first fan after seeing my drawing and rooted for me...
Whenever I was having a hard time,
the person who watched over me by my side...
The person who did all of that was you, Ahn Dan Tae.
Kong Shim.
I want to become that kind of person for you.
Kong Shim, just because of that...
Just because you're thankful towards me,
you don't need to— You don't have to do this.
You said this to me last time.
You like being able to see me whenever and wherever you want.
It's like that for me too.
I keep thinking about you.
In the morning, from the moment I open my eyes to when I fall asleep at night.
I keep thinking of you.
Sometimes I even dream about you.
I...
I like you, Ahn Dan Tae.
Kong Shim, I'm sorry.
I...
I... I can't accept your feelings.
So please put those feelings away. I'm really sorry.
What are you saying?
Then what were all those things you said to me before?
The things I said to you before...
Back then... the situation was so different from now.
But Kong Shim, right now...
♫ On the bus crowded with people going home ♫
♫ I sit and rest my head ♫
♫ While I close my eyes and listen to music ♫
♫ I greet the end of the day ♫
♫ While both the people I dislike and the people I like ♫
♫ I had to meet them today ♫
♫ While comforting myself by saying "good job" ♫
♫ I move a step toward home ♫
♫ The tears which flow without me even knowing ♫
♫ As though swallowing the day silently ♫
♫ Will running through the crowd ♫
♫ Be the only worry? ♫
♫ You are doing well, precious person ♫
♫ You are a beautiful person ♫
♫ Mixing advice with a sigh, using unexpected words ♫
♫ While trying to smile to comfort myself ♫
♫ Who is huddled with little hope ♫
♫ I move a step toward home ♫
♫ The tears which flow without me even knowing ♫
♫ As though swallowing the day silently ♫
Dan Tae.
♫ Will running through the crowd ♫
♫ Be the only worry? ♫
♫ On my unclear path ♫
