Baek Coffee.
Taebaek.
What are you doing here?
I got worried when you said you were coming here.
- Where's President Ma? - In the chairman's office.
What did Mr. Baek say?
Is he giving us an ad deal?
Baek Coffee.
Yes? Is something wrong?
You'll have to leave Giant.
President Ma.
What are you talking about all of a sudden?
Ask Baek Coffee. She'll know what I'm talking about.
Do you know what he's talking about?
Why don't you go back to the office?
President Ma and I should talk. I'll head back in a bit.
Yeah. You go ahead.
What's up with you two all of a sudden?
I'll go, but I need to know what's going on.
Just go, okay?
I'm sorry. I'll tell you everything later.
Please just go for now.
I need to hear it from you.
Is what I heard from Mr. Baek the truth?
He said you're his daughter.
It's true.
What in the world is going on here then?
What's Mr. Baek's daughter doing here in front of me?
Wait.
Does this mean Won Misuk was your mother?
Yes.
Good grief.
You should've told me.
Misuk was my friend.
I'm sorry.
Let's hear it then.
Why did the daughter of BK Group's chairman pretend to be an intern
and then come to work for a tiny ad agency?
Although Mr. Baek's blood flows through my veins,
I never thought of him as my father.
I don't want to live as the daughter of BK Group's chairman.
I want to live as Baek Jiyun, copywriter Won Misuk's daughter.
I know very well what happened to Misuk.
You were taken from her, and she led a very lonely life.
Be that as it may,
do you think Mr. Baek will let you live as you please?
He won't be able to do anything if I refuse to cave in.
I've already lost so much because of him.
I can't keep living like I used to.
Jiyun,
I know where you're coming from,
but this situation is a lot more complicated.
Mr. Baek is one thing, but what about Taebaek?
Taebaek may act all tough,
but he's as soft-hearted as anyone can be.
How will he take it when he eventually finds out who you are?
It's not something you can keep from him forever.
I'll talk to Taebaek,
so please give me some time.
He's very stressed as it is given the company's situation,
I don't want to make things even harder for him.
I'll tell him after we get our first deal and make a successful ad.
Like mother, like daughter.
You've a way with words.
Thank you.
What did BK want?
Are they giving us an ad deal?
I don't think that was it.
Where's dad? Why isn't he with you?
And where's Jiyun?
I don't know.
They said they had something to discuss in private.
Something's up with Jiyun today.
When she saw you and President Ma
get in a car with that strange-looking guy,
she was startled and just took off.
Strange-looking guy?
Do you have a few minutes?
I'm from the corporate secretaries' office of BK Group.
What did Mr. Baek say? Is he giving us an ad deal?
It turns out that he wanted to see me about something else.
Then why did he make you go all the way to his office?
He begged and pleaded for us to be a subcontractor for BK Ad,
but I said no right off the bat.
What's wrong with being a subcontractor?
We're very desperate for work.
We've to take whatever comes our way.
You did the right thing, sir.
No matter how desperate we are, BK Ad is just bad news.
Jiyun.
Can I talk to you for a minute?
The man who came from BK today is the same guy
who came to see you at the opening reception, right?
I did a lot of thinking,
and I started wondering,
do you have connections to BK Group?
I'm sorry, Taebaek.
Don't ask me anything right now.
Something's weighing you down, right?
President Ma seems to know. Can you say what it is?
I'll tell you later.
I'll tell you once things are looking up for Giant.
Jiyun,
look at me.
You can tell me anything.
We've to share what's good as well as what's bad.
I'll help you deal with whatever's bothering you.
I know you want to help me,
but please just trust me and wait.
I'm an impatient person, so I'm not good at waiting.
But...
I'll wait.
My goddess tells me to wait, so what choice do I have?
Thank you.
I guess waiting can be very rewarding.
What are you doing?
Are you blind? I'm looking for a job.
Are you really quitting Giant?
I told you I was. Have you gone deaf too?
Soran,
where's you sense of loyalty? How can you up and leave?
Does loyalty put food on the table?
Does it pay the rent?
Work is one thing, but I'm also upset at Ichan.
He looks at me so coldly these days.
I need to leave for a while so that he comes to his senses.
Winning in love is like winning an ad deal.
It's not that easy to please a deity.
What are you talking about?
Have you gotten religious?
It was just an analogy. grandma.
To our family, BK Group
is a symbol of unhappiness.
They may all suffer because of you.
What do you mean?
If you don't want them to shut down immediately upon their founding,
return to BK.
Taebaek may act all tough,
but he's as softhearted as anyone can be.
How will he take it when he eventually finds out who you are?
It's not something you can keep from him forever.
What are you thinking about?
Here.
I'm not having it today.
Are you not feeling well? Is something wrong?
You're frail, you need to have this.
I'm sorry. I really can't drink it today.
Make sure you drink it later.
It's one or the other.
You can either fire my daughter,
or you go and your staff will all become jobless.
Hi.
I asked your father here.
Have a seat.
Yes.
It seems you haven't told your father about Hyeonjin yet.
No, sir. I haven't gotten around to it.
This is the pitfall of raising a son.
May I ask why both of you are here today?
Regarding you and Hyeonjin...
I'd like you and Hyeonjin to get engaged,
but I wasn't sure about the timing, so I invited your father here.
Sir, I don't know why you're rushing things,
but I don't think this is the best way to get Jiyun.
I mean, Hyeonjin, to change her mind.
You're supposed to follow parental decisions in matters like this,
so be quiet.
I apologize, sir.
My son still has much to learn.
The older you get, the more impatient you become.
And I think it's in your and Hyeonjin's best interests to push this forward.
How can you do this without consulting me first?
It's not like you told me anything either.
And what about the acquisition? You told me nothing.
So will you use my marriage to strike a deal with Mr. Baek?
What did he offer you?
A presidency at a subsidiary?
How dare you?
I've let go of all my ambition.
There was no talk of a presidency or anything like that.
I may not have helped you much,
but I'd never dream of blocking your success.
Don't be stubborn, and just do as Mr. Baek says.
I'll help you.
Soran quit today.
It's all my fault.
She once accused me of taking off, but that's exactly what she's done.
Since we're on the subject,
I need to tell you
that I don't know whether I can pay you next month.
I only have enough
to keep the office running for another month.
But it's still too soon to give up.
We've a whole month to turn things around.
Yeah, Jinga.
Don't talk doom and gloom.
Let's come up with a plan.
Even if we go belly up, I'm having a lot more fun now
than when we were still GRC.
That's right.
GRC never could've made an instant noodle TV ad.
This office is way better than our GRC office, so I'm happy.
Let's go for it.
Let's forget all our troubles.
and really put our all into this.
Okay then.
Then I won't say sorry yet.
We'll do whatever we can for another month
before we make a decision about Giant, okay?
We're all going into super sales mode now.
What's keeping you?
Move, move!
Spare us an account.
Didn't you get into trouble again recently?
I swear it wasn't us.
Still, you were there when everything blew up.
So that's that.
Darn it.
You were crazy to have left BK Ad.
What's done is done.
Just spare us an account, will you?
I don't have the authority to make such decisions.
By the way, what about Harang?
Who asked you to worry about him?
I was asking out of concern.
Never mind then.
I've to run.
Hello, sir. I'm from Giant, a new ad agency.
We already have an agency we're working with.
Why don't you look at our portfolio at least?
We work with BK Ad.
Is your agency bigger?
I'm sorry.
For what?
If I hadn't joined GRC,
things wouldn't have gotten this bad.
I'm glad you know.
I'm sorry too.
For what?
Since you work for a whistleblower,
your future prospects are zero to none.
- I'm glad you know. - What?
Then we're even.
Good grief.
By the way, hasn't Jiyun said anything to you?
I promised not to ask her until Giant's operations normalize.
You did well. You're a real man.
Right? I'm not a bad catch, right?
Yes, Jiyun.
Taebaek, hurry.
What is it? What happened?
There's a contest, and the deadline is today.
Bring President Ma right away.
Where are they?
There they are.
Quick, quick, quick.
It's organized by the Global Korean Food Cultural Foundation.
They're taking applications for posters to globally publicize Korean Food.
The specific dish is seolleongtang.
Seolleongtang?
I've a good feeling about this.
We'll miss the deadline. Move, move, move!
How many times must I tell you? You missed the deadline.
You accept mail applications that are postmarked today, right?
We were only a few minutes late. Where's your flexibility?
Please leave.
Wait. Please take a look at our portfolio at least.
Why are you being like this?
Are you okay, Jiyun?
Are you okay?
I'm fine.
But please take a look at this.
We made this.
This was on the news recently. Have you seen it?
You're the agency that made this ad?
Yes. And there's more.
We also made the blanket ad for the homeless, and...
I'll go ahead and process your application then.
Thank you.
Say, how many agencies have entered this contest?
I think you're the 51st.
So over 50 ad agencies have applied?
We're going to narrow it down to five contestants,
so you've a 1 in 10 chance of making the first cut.
That sounds good.
Then I'll proceed with it.
Oh, and...
The Global Korean Food Cultural Foundation called
and said they'd like to meet with you.
What for?
They've organized a poster contest for the globalization of Korean Food.
They'd like you to preside over the judging panel.
Globalization of Korean Food...
What's the specific dish?
Seolleongtang, sir.
I think you should say yes.
Why is that?
The foundation markets and publicizes
Korea's national brand image to the global audience.
BK Ad is planning to take on the global market.
This will help elevate BK Ad's international standing.
Very well. I'll do it.
I took the liberty of reviewing the applicants,
and Giant is one of the five agencies that made the first cut.
Really?
We made the first cut?
I just got a call from them.
Good job.
Jiyun, good job.
You too, Taebaek. Let's win this thing.
Now, let's all calm down.
We'll have a meeting in an hour, so find any and all relevant resources.
Yes.
Okay.
This is good.
This is beef soup, right?
One spoonful at a time.
We only got one bowl because it was so pricey.
But I'm hungry.
How can we all share a single bowl?
This isn't lunchtime.
We're studying a product.
I'll make you instant noodles after the meeting.
One idea per spoonful.
Hey, hey.
But why did they picked seolleongtang among countless Korean dishes?
Maybe because it's easy to cook and very nutritious?
Yes. The recipe is simple, and the ingredients are easy to find.
You think that's why?
I saw something on the news recently.
Some restaurants put weird things in their seolleongtang.
You mean this, right?
They not only put in artificial seasonings,
but sometimes even coffee creamer or baby formula.
I don't understand people who mess with food.
It's something that goes into other people's bodies.
I know.
Putting in coffee creamer or baby formula is really awful.
So what now?
Where do we start?
We should first study the product.
Hey, Eunhui,
where should we go?
We need to go to a place that makes the real thing.
Do you know of a place?
Just follow me.
This place is perfect for the detective method.
The detective method?
It's commonly used to make food ads.
You become a detective and uncover the secret behind a tasty dish or product.
Aren't we going overboard? It's not like we'll open a restaurant.
Listen.
The secret behind the recipe equals the product's essence.
So you're saying that in the process of discovering the secret,
we just might get a flash of inspiration, right?
I've done a fine job as a teacher.
Good luck though.
It won't be easy discovering anything at this restaurant.
Why aren't they taking our order?
Are they showing off how successful they are?
Take your order?
Just eat what I bring you, bonehead.
But we were only going to order two bowls.
Goodness me.
There are four mouths here, so why only two bowls?
The two mouths here are on diet right now.
I'll pay for this, just give us all four bowls.
Now, you look like the head honcho.
Shame on you, dirty louse.
If you don't have money, don't keep staff.
What do you know about our situation anyway?
I know everything. I know everything indeed.
Because incompetent fools like you run businesses,
our country's falling to pieces.
You look like a dirty Siberian hog.
What's up with that lady and her dirty mouth?
What did I tell you? It won't be easy, will it?
You dirty Siberian hog?
This is good. The broth is simple, yet refreshing.
The color's different from most other seolleongtang.
The seolleongtang where my grandma works has a similar color.
Oh, really?
People who make it authentically come and learn from this lady.
A restaurant can't be around for 40 years without making good food.
The trash-talking lady's not around, this is our chance.
Shouldn't we ask her first?
You saw how she was.
She'd never say yes. Move, move.
She uses big chunks of fresh beef to get that pure, refreshing flavor.
What do you think you're doing?
I see.
So you were here to steal my secret recipe.
That's not true, ma'am. We're from an ad agency...
Oh, my goodness!
Scram!
I swear we're from an ad agency.
I don't care where you're from, so get lost.
Scram.
Why do you keep hitting only me?
Let go.
Because your big, wide face is the easiest to hit, you louse.
Good heavens. What has the world come to?
I told you we should've asked first.
So what now? Should we go to another restaurant?
I'll just stay here.
Why?
I get the feeling that inspiration is lurking here.
I'll get the lady's permission and try to stay until I get a good idea.
Fine then.
Eunhui and I will head out.
Taebaek and Jiyun, you two can stay here.
Okay?
Goodness me. Let go. Let go.
What are you doing back here?
It wasn't easy when you first opened this restaurant, right?
Huh? Good grief.
What kind of question is that out of the blue?
You see, we just founded our ad agency.
Things are so tough, we need to budget just to order a bowl of soup.
And our future is murky.
I knew as soon as I laid eyes on that fatso.
Just quit.
We want to make ads that are like the seolleongtang you make.
What?
We want to make authentic ads that are free of additives.
So please help, ma'am.
How can someone like me help you?
All you have to do is let us stay here.
And I'll clear these.
There's a huge pile of dirty dishes in the kitchen.
Then I'll get right to them.
Why are you just standing there?
Here. Finish what you started.
Of course. Thank you.
President Kang isn't as strong as I thought he was.
Or maybe he puts pride before ambition.
I don't know if I can put him in charge of the media group.
Why don't you give him a bit more time?
There's no better expert in new media at BK Group than President Kang.
I think we should take care of our headache before the engagement.
Are you talking about Giant?
I'm not sure President Kang can handle it.
I'll leave it up to you.
Yes.
I can do it.
I'm fine, so go and help the lady in the kitchen.
Why are you working so hard?
We're here for inspiration, not to wait tables.
I told you. Your drive and enthusiasm are infectious.
Move, move.
I'm sorry. I startled you, didn't I?
See? I told you to take it easy.
If you're going to nag, let me do this alone.
You got burned, didn't you?
I'm fine.
No, you're not. You've a burn.
Enough fancy speeches.
Good heavens.
You! And you!
How can you scoff down your food when there's this mess right next to you?
Hurry and clean this up!
- Yes, ma'am. - Hurry up.
It's okay, I'll do it.
No, it's not okay.
Come with me.
Both of you.
Sit, sit.
There's an ointment in here.
Put it on and give it half a day. Your hand will be good as new.
I still think we should go to a clinic.
You moron.
I get burns 365 days a year, and yet I'm perfectly fine.
You won't die, so just dab on ointment.
I'll do it.
He's quite alright.
Good luck.
What do you mean, ma'am?
Look.
What are you doing?
A guy with a manly face like this cooks well over time.
The pale-faced girly types don't have any flavor.
Got it?
Yes, ma'am. I'll cook him one of these days.
Good grief.
I sleep in this room, so no monkey business, you hear?
Let me see your hand.
It's okay. I can do it.
You nursed me when I got out of the holding cell, right?
Now it's my turn.
I think you should take off the ring, though.
I'd rather not.
Please just put the ointment on.
I won't take off this ring either.
No matter how tough things get,
I'll never take off this ring.
I promise.
So...
Will you promise me the same?
What in the world are you two doing in there?
If you're going to kiss or something,
just get it over with and hurry on out here.
Customers are waiting.
We'll be right there.
- Take it easy for a bit. - No.
I want to be the one to have a winning idea this time.
You're so stubborn.
But I'll get really angry if you get hurt again.
Darn it! Enough already! Hurry up!
Let's go.
Mom, I want lots of beef soup.
Of course.
Mom, can I have a drink?
It's midday. No way!
Ma'am?
Yeah?
You must be very close. They call you "mom".
Yeah.
In Korea, I'm their mom.
Think about how worried their mothers must be
when their sons are in a foreign country, breaking their backs to make a living.
And some mean business owners won't even pay them properly,
or beat them up just because of their skin color.
Sometimes I'm ashamed to be a Korean.
All I can do is give them a bowl of hot seolleongtang
and treat them like my own sons.
- You're the best, mom. - You're the best.
Thanks.
Didn't you say you're making an ad for Korean food?
Yes.
There's not much to advertising Korean food.
This is advertising right here,
and I'm the spokesperson.
Got it?
Jiyun, are you okay?
You're not feeling well?
See? I told you I'd be the one this time to have a winning idea.
So you've gotten inspiration?
Do tell.
The concept is mother's soup.
Mother's soup?
The secret to seolleongtang is motherly love.
Mother's soup?
It's great.
I feel bad about telling her we suddenly have to leave.
There's something we need to do before we leave.
What's all this craziness? Why do you want pictures of me?
You'll blind me with all these lights and flashes.
Hurry up, will you?
We're going at it, ma'am. It won't be much longer.
Are you sure you don't know me?
You look just like Ajel.
I'm Hassan.
Koreans can never tell us apart.
I won't ask you to pay the tab you racked up.
I swear I'm Hassan, not Ajel.
I don't want to do this.
It's a direct order from the chairman.
Is this necessary when we don't even know
if Giant will make the cut?
Better safe than sorry, right?
If you don't do it,
President Kang will be put in charge.
But given how proud he is,
he might end up at odds with the chairman.
So I figured
it would be best if we were to take care of this.
I'm certain you'll find a way.
Excuse me.
Director Ko, what did you want to see me about?
There's something I'd like you to do for me.
It's a great design.
Ma Jinga still has the magic touch.
I didn't even do my best, out of pity for other applicants.
But Jiyun came up with this.
Why didn't you put this talent to good use and stay at BK Ad?
Enough nonsense.
I only want the best quality for these pictures.
We're off.
Okay.
This is good.
Why don't you take a look at it?
I like it.
Who submitted this?
I've never heard of this place before.
Have you ever heard of Giant?
Hello?
You're reached Giant ad agency.
Pardon?
Okay.
Yes, thank you.
We didn't make it.
Just kidding!
Ours won!
What's wrong, Jiyun?
Can't you see that you almost made me cry?
It was all in good fun.
Baek Coffee and I make a perfect team, as expected.
You stay out of this.
Jiyun and I are a team now.
Fine, traitor.
Taebaek, you and I can be a team now.
No, thanks. I'll always stick with Baek Coffee.
Okay.
We'll all be in this together no matter what.
Yes.
Everyone, President Ma says dinner is on him tonight.
The menu will be beef.
The head of the judging panel will soon be joining you.
You must not have known I was judging this contest.
In any case, congratulations.
Please sit down.
We're very thankful, but this is rather unexpected.
Why?
Did you think I would've given you a bad score on purpose?
Thank you for making a difficult decision.
It wasn't difficult at all. It was a great ad design.
President Kang, it was Ms. Baek who came up with the idea.
Oh, really?
I guess you were so busy with this,
you couldn't find time to return my calls.
Can I see you briefly after the meeting?
I've something important to discuss with you.
Okay.
Should we talk about what happens from this point on?
What is it?
There's a big problem.
We uploaded your design onto our webpage.
and someone's threatening to sue for plagiarism.
That's impossible.
He even sent his design to us.
Take a look at this.
Are you still going to say you didn't plagiarize?
It's just a coincidence.
We've witnesses.
In any case, we'll have to hold off on presenting you with the award.
This isn't fair.
Why are you only taking that person's word for it?
Do you think we want to deal with this mess?
If this makes it into the press,
not only our funding but also the project itself may go up in smoke.
Please leave for now.
We contacted all the judges,
so they'll be here within an hour.
I'll see you another time then.
Talk about bad luck.
Let's go.
We need to find out whatever we can.
Let's get going.
Enjoy the food. We all work hard to eat well and live well, right?
I don't have an appetite.
Why not?
Should I have ordered higher-grade beef?
It's not the beef, I feel so terrible.
It's weighing on me too since I'm a mere freelancer.
If a small ad agency is accused of plagiarism,
it'll be ousted from the ad industry.
You need to watch what you say.
Is it so uncommon to get a flash of inspiration
on a casual visit to a printing shop?
You make it sound like we stole someone else's idea.
And let me lay it out to you.
What can possibly be worse than losing the work that BK Ad gives you?
Please eat.
Taebaek and Jiyun,
are you sure you never saw this before thinking up your design?
Sometimes people forget what they've seen.
I swear I never saw it.
Me neither.
Then we have the answer.
Someone snuck out our design and plagiarized it.
We've to find the person who stole it.
If we can't clear our name,
Giant will become a pariah in the ad industry.
I just learned that the copyright application for this design
was made the day after we came up with ours.
Something's fishy.
The head of the judging panel is BK Ad's president,
and BK Group funds the foundation. That doesn't sit well with me either.
President Ma,
there's more bad news.
What is it now?
The landlord was here earlier.
If we can't pay the rent this month, he wants us to leave.
I don't believe this.
Nothing's worked out for us since we founded Giant.
Sitting here won't get us anywhere.
I'm going to meet the guy who's suing us for plagiarism.
I'll come with you.
Think about it.
If we were going to plagiarize, we would've tweaked it
so that it wouldn't be this obvious.
Either you were desperate for ideas, or you were outright shameless.
What did you say?
Don't get worked up.
We're not here to fight.
This isn't the first time someone plagiarized my work,
which is why it's even harder to stand.
I'm not taking it anymore.
I'll take this all the way to the Supreme Court if need be.
Then let me ask you one question.
You applied for copyright of your design very recently.
What about it?
You weren't even planning to submit the design to a contest.
So why did you create the design and copyright it?
Are you interrogating me?
I'm the one who's suing you, not the other way around.
You may have sued us, but we suspect that
it was you who plagiarized our design.
The truth will come to light in court.
Taebaek, wait.
Mr. Kim.
What now?
BK told you do this, right?
What are you talking about? BK?
Was it BK Ad or BK Group?
Do you have a persecution complex?
Why are you getting psycho on me?
What did you just say? Psycho?
What a day.
I don't feel like talking to you anymore, so I'll see you in court.
I've thought long and hard,
but President Kang's the only one who would do this to us.
I'll go to BK Ad and talk to him.
You head back to Giant.
I'll go and talk to him.
What are you talking about? We'll go together then.
No.
I think it'd be better for me to go alone.
Why do you want to see him alone?
There's something I need to discuss with President Kang.
So what is that something?
What's it that you must discuss with him in private?
I'll tell you later.
Please just trust me and wait a little longer.
What are you hiding from me?
Why can't you trust me and tell me everything?
I do trust you.
Don't you trust me too?
Of course I do.
If you do, couldn't you let me keep my secret?
Although I trust you,
I don't trust the people at BK.
Talk to President Kang and come back to the office.
[Global Korean Cuisine Advertising Contest]
President Kang.
Do you know about the plagiarism suit against Giant?
I heard about it.
What do you think?
Is Lee Taebaek someone who'd resort to plagiarism
out of desperation?
No.
He'd never do such a thing.
That's what I think too.
There's something you need to do for me.
I think the chairman of BK Group is involved.
What makes you think that?
Is it because of Ms. Baek Jiyun?
In any case, I'd like you to get to the bottom of this quickly.
I've something to talk to you about.
This is great. I've a lot to discuss with you too.
It's nice to see you back here at the office.
So? Are you sure you don't want to return to BK Ad?
There is no way I'll return to BK Ad.
That's a shame.
I'm here today about
the plagiarism incident.
We think someone snuck out our design
and framed us for plagiarism.
Do you have any suspects?
You.
That was unexpected.
Why do you think it was me?
I've no reason to do such a thing.
Yes, you do.
What would it be?
The chairman of BK Group, Mr. Baek, is your boss.
What about it?
I believe you know
that I'm Baek Hyeonjin.
Giant will do whatever possible to clear their name.
You've to be very discreet.
Speaking of which,
do you know that Ms. Baek Jiyun is here?
She is?
I think she's here to see President Kang.
When Geum San was bought out by BK Group,
and you were appointed president,
it occured to me that you may know about
how I'm related to Mr. Baek.
Am I right?
I did know.
How long have you known?
It's been a while.
- So that means... - To be honest,
I first approached you because you were Mr. Baek's daughter.
But then at some point,
I started developing feelings for you.
My feelings for you now are sincere.
I'll take your word for it.
But someone else has already stolen my heart.
I'm sorry.
I'm sure I'll be able
to move your heart, just like you moved mine.
I had nothing to do with the plagiarism incident.
You can trust me on that.
Wow. I didn't know you were here, Ms. Baek.
I'll get going.
Ms. Baek.
It would be in your and Lee Taebaek's best interests
for you to leave Giant.
Thank you for your advice.
Why was she here?
She asked me if I was behind the plagiarism incident.
They may all suffer because of you.
If you don't want them to shut down immediately upon their founding,
return to BK.
[Lee Ganpan]
The person you're trying to reach is unavailable.
Mr. Park.
Why, Ms. Lee, it's been so long.
I trust you've been well.
I get by thanks to BK Ad.
But what brings you all the way here?
About the ad design you snuck out for us...
What are you talking about?
You're such a terrible actor.
We're on the same side, you don't have to act.
I'm not acting. What design are you talking about?
I'm telling you, you don't have to keep up this charade.
Do I have to say "Giant"?
Pardon? Did something go wrong with that?
Did we get caught?
There is a small problem.
What is it?
You see, I quit BK Ad. I work for Giant now.
What?
Jinga!
You little twerp.
Printing shop is supposed to print, not copy other people's work.
I'm so sorry, President Ma.
So he said it was Mr. Shin who plotted everything, right?
That's what Mr. Park at the printing shop said,
but Mr. Shin must have been ordered to do so.
It has to be Addie Kang.
I'm sure he's also the one who framed us as whistleblowers
with the baby lotion incident.
On what grounds are you saying this?
Think about it.
Who benefited most from the baby lotion scandal?
Addie Kang.
He was appointed president of BK Ad after that incident.
By the way, where's Jiyun?
Oh...
She went to BK Ad to talk to President Kang,
but she's not answering her phone.
I think we were cut from the Korean food poster contest
due to the plagiarism incident.
Why? Is there an article about us?
The award ceremony will be held tonight as scheduled.
But no one called us.
That's probably because some other agency won.
President Kang will probably be at the award ceremony, right?
Of course. He's head of the judging panel.
Hey, Ms. Gong.
Where is that ceremony?
What happened to Hyeonjin's company?
They were cut from the Korean food poster contest for plagiarism.
Suspected of whistleblowing and even plagiarism...
They have two scarlet letters now,
so all that's left is to close shop.
It's been a long time.
If you've time tonight, I'd like to see you.
Okay.
Then I'll see you at the award ceremony.
Is there a reason why you want to see her there.
President Kang will be there too.
What's the point in dragging this out?
The engagement talks can be concluded tonight.
We'll now begin the award ceremony
for the 2013 Korean food globalization poster contest.
Mr. Baek Jaehwan, chairman of BK Group, our most generous sponsor,
made time in his busy schedule to be here with us today.
Please welcome him with a round of applause.
I heard Lee Taebaek's agency would have won the contest
if not for the plagiarism lawsuit.
Yes.
As head of the judging panel, if you'd given them a bad score,
things wouldn't have come to this.
I didn't give them more or less than they deserved.
I scored their ad design fairly and objectively.
When I first met you,
I thought you and I shared similar values,
but you seem
more like Hyeonjin these days.
They say you take after the person you love. Is that what's happening?
Truth be told,
I've grown weary of my old self.
Maybe I've changed since falling in love
with your daughter.
I'd like to speak with you alone.
Could we move to a quieter place?
We can do that, but...
President Kang will accompany us.
I asked to see you tonight
because I've something to tell both you and President Kang.
Why don't you two talk first?
The things I want to discuss today will make everyone uncomfortable.
I think it would be best for you two to talk first.
I can join you later.
The person you're trying to reach is unavailable. Connecting to voicemail.
Sir, could you step on the gas?
I'm in a real hurry.
So what is it that you want to tell me?
Stop harassing Giant.
You can put an end to it by leaving that place.
What exactly can you get from
doing this to Giant and making me leave?
At least I won't have to see you cavort with trash like them.
Why can't you understand
that your methods only make me distance myself further from you?
This is what a father has to do.
A father has to make his child
pick the path that's best for her rather than the path she wants.
Leave that company right away.
In addition,
get ready to be engaged to President Kang.
What do you mean? Engagement?
President Kang's father and I
have finished discussing the matter.
What are you doing here?
I thought Giant was disqualified after the plagiarism incident.
We found the person who framed us for plagiarism.
Who is it?
The person who's standing right here in front of me.
There must have been a misunderstanding.
The owner of the printing shop that stole our design came clean.
He said he was pressured by Mr. Shin of BK Ad.
There's no way Mr. Shin would've done it on his own,
so end your charade and explain yourself.
Do you really think that makes sense?
What's wrong with wanting you to marry someone who's successful
and care deeply about you?
Are you saying a father can't do at least that much for his daughter?
Jiyun.
Taebaek.
