(Episode 11)
(Seol Do Hyun Spotted on a Date)
Goodness.
Hey, what happened?
What do you mean?
Seol Do Hyun is trending on the internet right now.
There are pictures of you two on the social media.
There are articles too.
People must be bored.
Why are you looking this up and not doing your job?
The reporter next door came to me about it.
What happened?
Why did you and Do Hyun get a picture taken like this?
It's nothing.
Excuse me if you're not busy.
Please have some coffee.
Thank you.
You're trending on the internet right now.
Already?
How did you and Do Na get a picture...
Hey. I told you it's nothing.
You startled me.
How is that nothing?
That happened after I confessed my feelings for you.
What?
Then...
Yes, you're right.
I'm interested in Director Ha.
I was going to drop her off, but she refused.
So I followed her on the subway here.
Why are you doing this?
You're going too far with your joke.
What joke?
Why would I waste my time like that?
Do Hyun. There's an article about you.
So what? What's the fuss about?
You have to respond by tomorrow.
We're here already, so let's look at my work.
Goodness.
Hello.
Thank you for your hard work.
Sure.
Director Shin told Director Ha...
that he'll let her debut as Team B's director...
if she turned you into an actor.
This is called a win-win strategy.
Hey, you must be out of touch with reality,
but Do Hyun is a top-husband material.
You come here.
What if you don't end up getting married?
He's asking you to date him.
I'm not interested in him.
Let's develop some interest in him.
He's so annoying. How would I be interested?
- Why is he annoying? - He's not my type.
Why? Because he's older?
My gosh.
For you to be freed from your maternal instincts towards Bum Woo,
you have to develop an interest in Do Hyun.
Hey, why are you mentioning Bum Woo?
You're unbelievable.
You know why I'm mentioning him.
Forget it. I'm annoyed by everything.
Hey, are you running away from the truth?
You punk. Why are you doing this to me?
- You're trying too hard. - Let's talk.
(Seol Do Hyun Says It's Too Early to Speak.)
(Date on the Subway? Female is a Drama Director.)
What's too early to talk about?
- Hey, the bus is here. Hurry. - The bus.
What's there to speak about? What's too early?
People know about you on the internet.
So why did you draw me into this lousy mess?
- "Lousy"? - Yes. It's lousy.
I want to live quietly.
You shouldn't talk so carelessly.
You think my feelings for you are lousy?
That's going too far.
Well... That's not what I meant.
I really didn't want to be drawn into this matter.
Then don't do anything.
Sorry?
I'll get closer to you.
- Do Hyun. - I'll do it.
My feelings belong to me.
- What do we do? We're late again. - There was too much traffic.
Mom!
- I'm sorry. - You should drive properly!
Sung Ah, you take care of it.
Mom!
Okay, that's how the lines will go. We'll have a full shot later.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry I'm late.
We should start shooting since everyone's here.
Let's start. We'll start shooting.
- We'll start shooting. - We'll start shooting.
Action.
- Cue. - Cue!
Here.
- Cut. - Cut.
Hold on. Lara.
Why is your hand shaking so much?
I'm sorry.
Don't worry about being late. Just focus on your acting.
Okay.
Here we go again. From the second part.
- We'll go again. - We'll go again.
Cue!
You've never eaten at a place like this before, right?
No.
How did such a beautiful woman come to a place like this?
She's our history teacher.
She's not only pretty. She must be smart too.
Cut. Lara.
When you're saying your lines, you should look at her...
and smile.
Okay.
You must be a newbie.
Gosh, Ha Young. Don't you know her?
It's Lara. She used to be a top star.
I'm sorry.
Then why would she play such a role?
She has her reasons.
Here we go again. From the same spot.
Here we go again.
You've never eaten at a place like this before, right?
No.
How did such a beautiful woman come to a place like this?
Okay. Good job.
- Good job. - Good job.
Thank you.
- Good job. - Good work.
Lara.
Is that blood?
What happened? Why are you bleeding?
She got hit by a motorcycle on her way here.
Are you okay, Mom?
What's this? My goodness.
You should've told me if you were hurt.
It's nothing much.
Let's go to the hospital.
I'm really okay.
Let's go, Mom.
I'll dress your palm.
Be careful, and keep it clean.
Thank you.
You didn't have to come.
It happened on set. Of course, I should come.
Luckily, there's time until the next shoot.
Why did you do that?
Why didn't you say anything?
I was scared I'd get fired.
I told you I wouldn't fire you.
But I shouldn't disrupt the shoot.
You're old-fashioned.
She's too naive.
That stings.
It's uphill.
Be careful.
Thank you for driving us.
Thank you.
- Rest well. - Okay.
- Take care. - Bye.
Let's go.
Gosh.
- That's so funny. - Stop laughing.
You should've seen her face when she did her lines.
That's why they say you don't know what your future holds.
She must realize how cruel...
the world is.
Seol Do Hyun and Ha Do Na must really have something.
What do you mean?
There's an article saying that they might be dating.
That's impossible.
Could it be noise marketing?
Who cares if they date or not? Why are you being sensitive?
Because it could affect our drama.
- Are you doing well? - Yes.
- By the way... - What is it?
According to the hotel's PR team who is related to the drama...
What is it?
Mom is cast on that drama for a small role.
What?
You have to stop her.
My in-laws will be unhappy.
Don't get involved no matter what she does.
People will talk.
She's a stranger to us now.
Just let her do whatever she wants.
Okay.
You should take care of it.
If it comes from you,
she'll leave.
I don't want to.
Joon Ho.
I thought it was fine as long as I didn't marry her.
Things have changed.
Hye Mi won't find out.
Women are sensitive.
She would notice if her husband is cheating on her.
Every time your father found a new woman,
I could sense it.
That's because he didn't care whether you found out or not.
Like father, like son. Why would you take after him?
If you allowed me to marry the woman I wanted,
- this wouldn't have happened. - How could I let you marry her?
There's nothing good about her.
That's why I live with her in hiding.
Please stop pressuring me.
- Are you back? - Hello.
Is Lara okay?
Yes. What is that?
The writer sent us an additional scene.
The writer dropped by at the editing room...
and liked Jin.
That's when we got the new script.
Don't be so proud.
No, sir.
You still look like you feel rewarded.
Yes, I do. I feel rewarded,
but I won't act so proud.
- Schedule it tomorrow afternoon. - Okay.
- Excuse me. - Yes, welcome.
Is this Ha Do Na's house?
Yes. I'm her grandma.
Nice to meet you. I'm Seol Do Hyun.
You look very familiar.
- Are you an actor? - Yes, I am.
I'm currently in the drama...
- she's working on. - Gosh, really?
Yes, that's right. Welcome. Please come sit.
Hello. I'm Seol Do Hyun's manager, Kim Chi Bok.
Yes, welcome. Please come in.
My goodness.
The writer must like you.
It's an additional scene.
- The shoot is tomorrow. - Okay.
What's wrong?
Pardon?
You don't look like you're happy.
I'm moved.
If the writer added an extra scene especially for you,
you should be jumping up and down and moved to tears.
- Should I jump? - Are you making fun of me?
I'm just dumbfounded.
Focus. This is only the beginning.
Okay.
You're acting strange.
Me? What do you mean?
You look so sullen. Are you upset at me about something?
No, I'm not upset at all.
It's just that you seem a bit different.
I guess it's because I'm really nervous.
Maybe.
Don't be too nervous.
Just think of it as taking one step forward at a time.
Okay.
I'd like to officially date her.
With Do Na?
Yes.
I thought I should ask for your permission first.
That's why I came to see you.
How did a famous man like you...
come to like a tomboy like Do Na?
Don't say that.
I prefer women who are cheerful just like your granddaughter.
Really?
Well, I do have to admit. My granddaughter is very cheerful.
Yes, you're right.
- Eat up. - Okay.
Do Hyun, don't you think you're getting ahead of yourself?
This could backfire on you.
A man should put his thoughts into action.
Isn't it beautiful to see a man do his best for love?
It is beautiful.
Director Ha is most likely going to get repelled by...
how straightforward and reckless you are.
I find it charming that she's not easy to get.
What's wrong with you?
You've never been so passionate about a woman before.
It's probably because no woman has ever treated me like she does.
Don't you agree?
It's a bit cliche, but it does make sense.
Hey!
Do Hyun, you should still see how the situation goes...
and take things slowly.
Don't you know that I always need to finish what I've started?
Have you ever seen me quit before I win any kind of game?
This is why I feel sorry for you.
How can you compare this to winning a game?
The fact that I have a goal is the same thing.
My gosh.
- Keep practicing until I come back. - Okay.
"Keep practicing until I come back."
In and out of love
With you
- We're home. - We're home.
My granddaughter, you're home.
Grandma, what's wrong?
Did something nice happen to you?
Yes, of course.
Seol Do Hyun came to see me today.
What? Why would that guy come see you?
Don't call him, "that guy". You should call him by his name.
He came to ask for my permission to go out with you.
- So? - So what?
I gave him my blessing and told him to go ahead.
Grandma, you didn't even think to ask me?
You don't have a boyfriend.
She doesn't.
A fine man like him came to see me and asked me...
to let him date a brat like you. Why would I ever say no to that?
I don't like him.
- Why? - I just don't like him.
If you don't have a reason, that means he's okay.
How is that okay?
I met your grandfather for the first time on our wedding day.
So I was really scared of him at first, and I didn't like him either.
But later on, we got along really well with each other.
Right?
She's just acting like a baby because she's not desperate yet.
You shouldn't do that.
You shouldn't act so immaturely...
when someone's trying to show you their sincerity.
It's only right for you to think things over carefully.
My gosh, Grandma.
She's just acting like she's annoyed when she's actually happy.
I know.
It's funny how she knows how to be embarrassed.
Exactly.
I'll go upstairs now.
Okay.
They say, "Little strokes fell great oaks."
Move out.
Love you
Hey.
What are you doing?
You're back.
Do you know what time it is?
You told me to practice until you came back.
Are you trying to figure out a way to tire me out?
Not really.
Forget it. Just go home.
Aren't you going to check what I practiced today?
Let's do that tomorrow.
Mom.
What...
Mom. Mom.
Mom, are you okay?
Yes.
Give me some water.
Water.
- Here. - Thanks.
Shouldn't you go to the hospital again?
No, it's okay.
Why did you come home so late? Did you practice until now?
What about dinner?
Do you know that it's your first time asking me if I ate or not?
I used to come over frequently with a bundle of food in the past.
I always wanted you to become mature.
But now that you have, I kind of feel sad.
Do I at least seem mature?
I feel bad because it seems like you've matured way too much.
Are you okay, Mom?
Hye Mi.
What time is it right now?
Why were you sleeping like that? You should've slept comfortably.
It's almost 3am.
- Why did you come home so late? - I had to greet a Chinese client.
You seem to be greeting clients every day.
You don't need to do this because you own a hotel business.
But I need to sell the products that I make.
You should sleep now.
I'm sorry, Mother.
It's okay. It's natural for you to sleep in if you're tired.
You're very generous to your daughter-in-law.
You should drink some coffee to wake up.
What are you doing? Pour your sister-in-law some coffee.
It's okay.
I'll pour my own.
No one pays attention to me after you got married to my brother.
Let's give her a hard time so that she'll get married quickly.
Gosh. Oh, dear.
I had good news to tell you.
What happened to you?
It's not bad.
But what good news?
Somebody likes Do Na.
- Really? - Really?
She doesn't want to get married or date anybody,
so I thought she was going to grow old like that.
I was so worried about her,
but then suddenly, a young man appeared.
He said he wanted to date her. He asked for my permission.
That's good.
He's a very famous actor.
What?
- Who is it? - His name is Seol Do Hyun.
Seol Do Hyun?
You have to be careful in this scene.
Yes, I know.
Should I slap you?
No, I should do it by myself.
What is this weird feeling?
What?
No, I'm just saying.
I feel like I'm graduating kindergarteners.
Thank you for everything.
Are you going somewhere?
I just wanted to tell you.
I came this far because of you.
Are you trying to stand up alone now?
I should.
I can't depend on you forever.
Sure. Get ready.
- Are you ready? - Yes, we are.
- Please be safe. - No worries. Let's go.
Let's get rolling.
Let's go. Ready.
In 1, 2... Action.
Cue.
Be careful!
(Episode 12)
Sit down.
If you feel unwell, let's go to the hospital.
It's not that bad. It's just a bit sore.
Are you sure you can get right back into it?
Yes.
Okay. Let's finish it in one take.
Okay.
That happens during shootings. What's all the fuss about?
Director Shin and Do Na are too nice to him.
Do Hyun.
- I thought about this. - About what?
Strong women like Director Ha...
may be nice to people who's weaker than her.
Still, I can't act like that loser.
I know. You're not going to get some terminal cancer...
and arouse her sympathy,
so let's slow down.
I'm saying this for you.
- Excuse me. - Goodness.
I think he's right.
You think so, right?
Be quiet. I have a lot on my mind.
- Action. - Cue.
Cut. Okay.
That was good.
Hye Mi, you're early.
What happened to your hand?
I hurt it.
Mom, what are you doing these days?
Why?
I heard you're an extra for a drama Do Na is working on.
So what?
Don't you think about me at all?
Why does my being in a drama have to do with you?
My in-laws didn't like you because you were an actress.
If it's a drama Do Na is in, people will gossip.
I'll be too embarrassed to face my in-laws.
I'll get you some money, so stop.
I can't do that.
I'll get you some money.
I can't quit a drama in the middle.
I don't want your money anymore.
- Why not? - I...
want to do what I want and be self-sufficient.
Since when were you like that? Just take my money...
- I said no. - You're always like this.
You only think about yourself.
Since I was young, I never felt protected by you.
- I'm sorry then. - Sorry?
You were such an idiot that I always tried to please others.
We don't live together anymore, but I still need to do the same.
I can't help it. Please be understanding.
No.
I can never understand you.
Hye...
Learn what I made markings for.
Sure.
I'm taking you in as my student for my honor.
It has nothing to do with your skills. Got it?
- Yes. - Go in.
He hugs me
As a goodbye
I'll smile for you
I don't want to send you like this
He turns back
If I wake up
From sleep again
Don't be biased.
Okay.
- Cut. - Cut!
Okay. Good work.
Good work.
Su Jeong improved a lot.
She acts okay when she's with you,
but I don't know why she can't do that with Min Hyeok.
She'll be different from now on. You can trust her.
Let's move to the next location.
Let's move.
Director Ha, do you have a minute?
It must be hard working with your mom.
She's still your mom.
Furthermore,
she got divorced because of you.
I know how embarrassed you'll be if she makes mistakes.
But be nicer to her.
Lara will be so encouraged. Don't you agree?
- Hwa Im. - Yes?
Lara is just an actress I work with.
So please don't approach me...
to talk about things like this.
I have to go to the next location. See you.
Sure, I get it. I won't do it.
By the way, are you really dating Do Hyun?
No. Please get going.
Sure.
Oh, dear. She won't be treated like a mom.
Sorry about earlier. I brought some new stew.
- It's hot! - It's hot.
Miss!
Oh, dear.
What's going on?
She threw the hot tongs at me while she grilled the meat.
I'm so sorry.
And right before, she spilled hot stew on us.
She just started here.
Please do understand.
I'll give you some meat on the house.
Ms. Song, go do the dishes.
- I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. - Hurry.
Hurry up.
Do you have morning sickness?
My wife...
My ex-wife...
had horrible morning sickness as soon as she got pregnant.
I guess sons and daughters are different.
I don't have any morning sickness so far,
and I eat very well too.
I'm glad.
I don't...
want to go home tonight.
I got pregnant outside of marriage,
so it makes me feel so lonely.
I won't be sleeping with you before you give birth.
- What? - He's a precious son.
I have to be careful.
You're home.
He won't sleep with me until I give birth.
I'm sure he's just saying that.
No, he meant it.
He wants to be careful because this is a precious son.
We can't help it then. We'll proceed with the plan.
Ha Kyung, if I tell him I lost the baby,
he might really cut me off.
That's why you need to keep it together.
You have to win his heart no matter what.
(Friendly Chauffeur Service)
Are you hurt?
No.
You're breaking out in a cold sweat.
Isn't it hard to be an actor and a chauffeur?
I do that because I want to. It's not hard.
How long have you been acting?
I think it's been about seven years.
But you haven't seen me anywhere, have you?
To be honest, no.
I get scared in front of cameras,
so I've only been turned down for the last seven years.
Really?
Then how did you get this role?
Some people helped me out.
- You were lucky. - I guess so.
Hey, why aren't you working?
Yes, I'll be right there. Bye.
Take him. His car is over there.
No, it's this way.
It looks like she was conned.
She lost all of the alimony.
Go.
Director Shin, have some of this.
It's on one of Do Hyun's advertisers.
- Sure. - Director Ha, is it true?
What? What is?
Are you dating Do Hyun?
Are you dating him?
No way.
That's what everyone thinks.
I should make a public announcement or something. This is so annoying.
You aren't anyone important. Who would let you do that?
If not, don't mind it.
Here.
- Thank you. - Goodness.
Don't worry, and have as much as you want.
Thank you for the coffee.
It's not much.
I want to offer dinner on the day of...
your drama's press conference.
Is that all right?
Sure.
I keep seeing interesting articles...
about you.
I'm glad they're interesting.
I've been having a very interesting life too.
Well, I guess it'll be fun to win against a rival.
She won't be an easy fight.
That just made this even more interesting.
You didn't know?
The one who plays the restaurant owner is Director Ha's real mom.
She's Lara.
She used to be the wife of JU Group's chairman.
Didn't you know that?
- I didn't. - Gosh.
You're so frustrating. What do you know?
She got divorced after he found out...
Director Ha was her daughter.
I'm sure she probably got a lot of alimony...
as the ex-wife of a corporate's chairman.
But she took up that role,
so I guess she wants to be around her daughter.
- We're home. - We're home.
Hurry up, and come in. Do Hyun's TV ad is on air.
- Grandma! - Goodness.
Don't you think Do Hyun is good-looking?
He's that and more.
How did that cool guy go head over heels in love with her?
Will you please stop? Please?
- What's with you? - He and I are...
not in any kind of a relationship.
I didn't say anything.
Why do you keep doing this?
You two aren't in a relationship for now.
You always turn people away,
so it won't be easy to open up your heart.
Grandma, I have no intention of starting anything with him.
Exactly. It's really hard...
to get people like you to begin a relationship.
Gosh, this is driving me crazy.
There's really no talking to you.
She should stop throwing a fit, right?
You're totally right.
Is this because of Do Hyun or Bum Woo?
Or is it because it was the first shooting?
Just go if you don't want to get beaten up.
- Do Na. - Don't say another word,
and just leave.
Why don't you consider dating him? You've got nothing to lose.
Consider what?
Grandma is really happy,
and it looks like Do Hyun is serious.
You don't have to cut him off coldly like this.
You can at least think about it.
Darn you.
Goodness, you have such a violent temper.
I'm leaving.
I didn't know...
you would play around like this, Ms. Kang.
This is a bit embarrassing.
- Cut. - Cut.
Su Jeong, you're a bit embarrassed and displeased.
You shouldn't be smiling.
You have to sound a bit sharper too.
- Okay. - Hey.
Why do you always smile whenever you see me?
I've always liked you.
I don't care about any other woman.
Are you...
Is there something going on between you and Director Ha?
Why do you think I let them write articles about us?
- One more time. - One more time. Stand-by.
- Action. - Cue.
I think Ms. Kang is rushing.
I asked her to do this.
Boss.
Ma'am.
Could you give us another bottle?
Sure.
Here you go.
- Gosh. - Cut.
- I'm sorry. - What?
It must be because you hurt your hand.
Pardon? Yes...
It was going so well. Why did you make a mistake?
It's okay.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
We'll cut here.
We'll start from the lady bringing in the soju.
We'll start over. New soju, please.
Shin Hwa Im says she's stuck in traffic and will be late.
How late will she be?
At the latest, 30 minutes.
- We'll take a 30-minute break. - We'll break.
I'm all right.
You're always harsh.
Mom got divorced because of you and is going through the trouble.
Because of me?
It's the truth.
Can't you be a little more gentle towards her?
Why should I?
She has nothing to do with me.
Being stubborn like that won't change any facts.
What is your name?
Sung Ah. Jung Sung Ah.
Ms. Jung Sung Ah, let me be clear.
Lara is an actress, and I'm an assistant director.
You are Lara's manager.
We're nothing more or less than that. Do you understand?
One day,
I'm sure you'll allow me to treat you as my sister.
That won't happen.
Shouldn't you hurry to your part-time job?
I should.
Are you copying Seol Do Hyun?
You're not famous enough to get paparazzi.
You were...
really cool today.
Really?
Was I cool?
Yes.
Of course, I was.
I was born to be a director.
I'm too young, right?
What are you talking about?
I think I acted like a child in front of you.
Do you feel a generation gap?
I guess you might. You're in your 20s, and I'm in my 30s.
That's not what I meant.
I mean, I only received from you.
I'll be honest with you.
I...
didn't help you just because.
They told me I'd get my debut as the director of Team B.
I wasn't happy about it when I had to take care of you.
Either way, you turned me into an actor.
But it wasn't because I sincerely wanted you to do well.
Director Ha.
Yes?
Like how I relied on you,
I hope, one day, you will rely on me too.
What are you talking about? Why would I rely on you?
I don't know. It's just a wish.
Goodnight.
What is he talking about?
I had an argument with Do Na today.
Why did you?
What did you say?
I told her to be good to you.
She's already stressed. Why would you do that to her?
She's so cold-hearted.
Of course, she wouldn't be happy about getting involved with me.
However, she was pretty cool.
She's clear in what she wants and what she doesn't want.
Before I was tamed by your father,
I was just like Do Na.
Mom, you can't make things up...
just because I don't know.
I'm serious.
When I was popular, I was full of charisma.
"You..."
Go to bed. Let's sleep.
Gosh, I should sleep.
Why did I bother?
It looks like she was conned.
She lost all of the alimony.
How foolish.
Come in.
I told her to come.
Ha Kyung knows a great spa,
so I asked her to take me.
- Have breakfast since you're here. - Okay.
I'm heading out.
- What about breakfast? - I'll eat out.
Hey.
Why do you hate me so much?
Do you not want to eat with me?
It's not right for a man to hide his dislike towards a woman.
Gosh. Ha Kyung, just forget it.
He's impossible.
There's something he doesn't realize.
He should never make a woman want to challenge herself.
(Juvis Diet)
Take a seat.
If the company sponsoring your production...
wants an actor out from the drama, can you do it?
Are you talking about Lara?
If she performs in a drama that you're working on,
it'll draw public attention.
That would bother me.
- That's too bad. - Pardon?
There are no clauses in the agreement,
saying that we would fire the actors you don't want.
Isn't it better for the both of us?
Aren't you bothered by the attention from the others?
Casting is up to the director, and he cast her.
There's no room for my personal emotions.
Goodbye.
Hey.
Are you dying for attention?
Lara did a horrible job at raising her daughter.
What did you say?
Just because you hate being bothered by your mother,
you're bothering someone else.
Am I wrong?
You're just an assistant director no one cares about.
You must be excited to get all that attention.
Jung Hye Mi.
You should watch how you address me.
Listen.
Your mother bothered me just as enough.
However, it's something I must bear with.
That's why I'm not making a fuss and am coping with it.
So stop whining, and just put up with it.
Wait.
You shouldn't speak to me like that.
Stop acting like a princess.
You're just a snob.
(Bravo My Life)
Isn't that your mom?
Why is she on TV?
You should think about...
what you can do for me.
We have to expose it now...
to make it certain.
He said he was questioning me.
I have no time...
to worry about all the rumors.
You have your real daughter now,
so I guess you don't care about your other daughter anymore.
Why are you being nice to Bum Woo all of a sudden?
Sign a contract with Bum Woo.
If it weren't for you,
I wouldn't have come this far.
I'm happy I was born.
(Do Na takes a full swing.)
(I was supposed to throw it.)
- Where is it? - This is it, right?
Lara, you have to be more clear.
"The kimchi went bad..."
I'm sorry.
(He misses.)
Again.
Are you all right?
- What joke? - Do Hyun.
Why would I waste my time like that?
(I guess this isn't the right timing.)
(Well...)
Hey. What?
Hold on.
I'll get closer to you.
(He's so determined.)
I wonder how this feels.
