You'll never see me again after I'm done with this assignment.
I am serious.
Please be good to Mi-ran.
You're back early.
Ji-eun and I were just talking.
I was thanking him for saving me
when I fell into the ocean yesterday.
Is that right?
Of course you should thank him.
But that was quite a long thank-you.
What do you mean by that?
I don't mean anything by it.
I'm just curious about
what words were exchanged between you two.
Jung-min...
Nothing makes a person foolish than a misunderstanding.
I don't remember who told me that.
When you really like a person you get suspicious.
You shouldn't do this to my Will.
He and I had an argument last night.
So I confided in Ji-eun.
I'm sure she was telling him to make up with me.
Ji-eun is always worrying about me.
I'm sorry. I apologize.
I saw the two of you standing together,
and got jealous and misunderstood.
Jealousy is an honest emotion, so you should understand.
It's too bad that you keep finding yourself
in sticky situations because of me.
Ji-eun, you must be angry with me.
You won't even look at me?
No, I'm not angry.
I should go now.
Let's go to our room and talk.
I was shocked when Ji-eun told me about your past history.
I understand Ji-eun's predicament.
She told me she didn't want to lose Jung-min.
There are no secrets in this world.
She said I was the only one who could help her if the truth came out.
She said that's the reason she told me the truth.
I was actually going to pretend to be in the dark.
I know there must be a reason you didn't tell me.
But if I hadn't come in at that moment,
Jung-min would've caught on to you and Ji-eun.
And if that happened, Ji-eun would...
You did the right thing.
I have nothing to say other than I'm sorry.
But I had no intention of deceiving you.
I know that because I know you well.
I don't know how to apologize.
It must've hurt you a lot
to pretend to be in the dark about it.
I'm sorry.
Let's keep it a secret from Jung-min.
Ji-eun deserves some happiness.
And only when she's happy will you feel less burdened.
Isn't today D-day?
Ms. Lee, Ms. Yoon wants you to clean her room.
I came to clean the room.
Okay.
I don't want to fight with you.
What good would come of our fighting?
Will you get me the nail polish remover from the drawer?
Will you take it off for me?
Does my asking upset you?
Never mind.
I'll ask someone else.
No, I'll do it for you.
Ji-eun,
Whatever you and my Will had ended 10 years ago.
What I can't tolerate
is that you keep hanging around my Will.
Even if it's not deliberate, it started with you,
and it always ends with you.
When you look at the world from only your point of view,
there are only victims, and no perpetrators.
Do you always have to have the last word?
You infuriate me every time you talk back!
I'm sorry.
You only say things from your point of view,
and I say what I think.
So we can't have a conversation.
Let me just say this,
you're not the woman who can give my Will strength.
You can't do it.
But I can be supportive of him.
That's the difference between you and me.
I don't desire him when he's someone else's man.
So stop treating me like a sinner.
I can't stop now.
I haven't even begun.
I'm not going to force you, but if you don't mind,
I'd like to work with you.
Congratulations.
It's too early for that.
He gave me time to think.
Why the hesitation?
You said you wanted to succeed.
Yes, I want to succeed.
And I'm well aware that I'll regret it if I don't take this opportunity.
Are you hesitating because of me?
You got the job all based on your ability.
I'm going to assume that you'll be working for us.
It's been decided, okay?
Jung-min...
Why aren't you saying anything?
Give me a little more time.
If this is an opportunity I shouldn't pass up, I won't.
And...
Hold that thought.
I have to talk to Mr. Jang.
Mr. Jang!
Shall we go out for a smoke?
I thought you'd be against it
because you do everything by the book.
Hiring Ms. Lee is an exception,
but it doesn't deviate from the principle.
I didn't give my consent to please you.
But I thank you anyway.
You won't regret hiring her.
You might regret it.
Yes, I may if she buries herself in work,
and leaves no time for me.
But what can I do but be supportive of her?
Who know?
She may very well take over the company.
I'm feeling really good today!
This calls for drinks!
That's not a happy look for a man responsible for a merger.
Is it because of Ji-eun?
I know it is, because when you look at her, your eyes say everything.
Sae-hoon, if you still have unresolved feelings for her, it's not too late.
There's not much I can do if it wasn't meant to be.
I can't give up everything for a woman.
Especially if she's a woman from my past.
People may say I'm cold-hearted and strong.
But I'm not like that.
There are lots of moments when I feel like abandoning
myself and hiding from the world because I'm afraid.
But I just don't show it.
What are you afraid of?
What am I afraid of?
Myself.
Here you are.
I've been looking for you.
I think I'd better leave now.
I have something to tell you.
Do you want a drink?
I can't tolerate that!
Keep your voice down.
What's your motive for wanting to keep her close to you?
It's just work.
You're being unreasonable.
Unreasonable.
Don't lie.
I know you're torn.
You see her at home,
and now you want to see her at work too?
I won't let you do that.
I'm not going to give in, and I won't go away.
I'm going to tell Jung-min.
Wait!
It's not your place to interfere.
If you do...
I won't forgive you.
Who's supposed to forgive who here?
Mi-ran, please just keep quiet about this.
There are some things about men that women just can't understand.
I've done her wrong.
Let's not tell Director Seo.
You're really horrible...
I'm sorry.
I'll make it up to you for doing this to you
every day of my life.
I'll be home tomorrow.
Yes.
Good night, Mom.
It's me, Mother.
I'll come and see you when I get back to Seoul.
Are you going to prepare a feast for me?
Ji-eun just gave me a dirty look.
Yes, good night.
You don't know what a pitiful man I am, do you?
I don't even know what my mom looked like.
So take pity on me and be nice.
Come to think of it, I don't know anything about you.
You never even tried to find out.
I'm sorry.
I put myself first and pushed you aside.
Tell me what you're hiding from me.
I think I've run out of patience.
Do you know what I dislike?
That wishy-washy look on your face.
If you can't be honest don't let it show.
Actually, I want to hide it.
But you're not letting me.
Jung-min,
Do you know why the world is scary?
It's because you can't always have things your way.
I'm sorry.
I'll tell you when we get back to Seoul.
If you never want to see me again, I'll understand.
What I'm afraid of is that others, including you,
will get hurt because of me.
Is it about a man?
Does it have anything to do with your ex-husband?
Is he threatening you or something?
No! It's not like that.
Let's go back inside.
I know it's the only thing you have of your late father.
And I also know how much it means to you!
Sleep well.
You too.
I want to tell you that I'll never regret meeting you,
no matter what happens.
Don't hesitate and just tell me what you have to say whenever you want to.
Go on.
I have a lot to thank you for.
One more thing.
Lock the door, or else I might barge in.
You should go.
I can't seem to move.
See you in my dreams.
What are you doing here?
I came because I wanted to talk to you.
It's best to make a quick decision
when you have a lot to think about.
Think only about yourself.
And don't tell Director Seo about us...
Was this it?
Director Seo,
let's go out and talk.
Let's go outside.
Jung-min...
Honey, stay here.
Honey?
Director Seo.
Now can you hear me out?
Shut up!
Jung-min...
I don't want to hear your voice.
Don't open your mouth in front of me.
I didn't mean for this to happen.
I'm sorry.
No, this may be for the best.
It wouldn't happened sooner or later.
You're calmer than I thought you'd be.
Worrying isn't going to solve anything.
I just feel bad for Jung-min.
I'm sorry.
I'll explain to Director Seo.
You don't have to do that.
Whatever needs to be worked out
between Jung-min and me is my problem.
Yes, maybe you're right.
After all, most people think alike.
If I were him, I'd want an explanation from you.
I'm sorry.
You don't have to apologize.
And you don't have to pity me.
If there's something you can do...
it's for you to ignore me.
I'd be devastated forever if you were unhappy.
Don't say things like that.
It's over between us.
And all we can do is...
is to each go back to our own place.
Even God will open another door when closing one.
Don't provoke me anymore.
Don't you dare get any ideas!
You'd better leave my Will alone before you get humiliated.
Don't worry.
I have no desire for your man.
If I wanted him, I would've had him a long time ago!
Got that?
Get out.
Don't let him bother you.
He always lived by his own rules.
I'm not pleased that they're stopping off in Japan.
Hope they're not meeting with our competition.
They don't have time to do that.
They're going to New York straight from Narita.
Then again, they won't change their mind now that they've signed the contact.
I'm also not pleased with the girl Roseman recommended.
She'll give us her answer by next week.
We can't object, since he picked her out...
Let's trust his decision.
This trip must've been tiring on you.
No, sir.
Let's have dinner when your father gets back.
Yes, sir.
Mi-ran!
Wake up!
Go to him and beg!
I wouldn't be able to forgive you if I were him.
I know I was wrong.
I wish I could get down on my knees and explain.
But he won't even look at me.
I've thought many times that it would've been nice
if I'd met him sooner.
He's a good man, and I feel comfortable with him.
That's enough drinking.
You're drunk.
I want to get drunk.
Is there anything wrong with that?
Someone like me can't even drink?
Okay, go ahead and drink.
Drink up and get rid of everything!
When you get down to it, it's really not your fault.
It's just a strange twist of fate.
Hello?
Where are you?
Why aren't you giving me my money back?
You...
How dare you talk back when you have a pot belly?
And you don't even have a lot of hair!
I'm going to kill you! Stop it!
Is this Producer Nam?
I thought I was calling my very best friend Bong-ja.
Instead I called you, Bok-ja.
Hey!
Good night.
Bok-ja! Nam Bok-ja!
That'll make you drink!
Bok-ja.
I envy you.
You and Yeo-jin look good together.
Are you kidding?
He grosses me out!
God may have sent you such a devoted man as Yeo-jin
because you're a good person.
You should seriously consider him.
Now you're trying to get us together?
I know he's a nice boy.
But he's not a man to me.
My heart doesn't skip any beats.
Bok-ja, don't go out with a man
who makes your heart pound.
It'll only be torture.
Let's drink together.
Jung-min, you look terrible tonight.
Did something happen?
Of course something happened.
Have you ever been hit by lightning?
I was hit by lightning yesterday.
It was so bad that even my heart was burned.
Should I comfort you tonight?
I don't think this is right.
Do I need to prepare myself?
Then you should prepare yourself too.
I chose you first, but I'll make you choose me too.
As you said, we can start out as friends.
But I can't be responsible for what we'll end up as.
Why aren't you sleeping yet?
How can I sleep when I'm not sleepy?
I just took some sleeping pills,
so I'll get some sleep soon.
Did something happen?
Did something happen with Jung-min?
No.
Then why did you drink?
Because Bok-ja and I hadn't seen each other in a long time.
I'm going to my room.
Was Jung-min here?
No.
I thought I saw him.
I thought you said you didn't like him.
Now you're showing your true feelings?
I'm sure he left by now.
Can you send me abroad to study if you marry him?
I don't like living in this country.
And of course I hate living in this house.
She's exhausted both mentally and physically.
Make sure she doesn't get any more stress.
What time is it?
It's past three.
Aren't you going home?
I'll go to work from here.
Then lie down next to me.
No.
You should get some sleep before you go to work.
Later.
What?
Should I disappear?
Let's stop that.
I know.
You can deny it all you want, but I know.
You're not leaving me because of your guilt.
Can you live without me?
Don't do this when you can't let me go.
If you can't break up with me...
Let's not torture each other.
How can you make me so anxious
when you know that so well?
How can you make me feel so pathetic?
I'm not with you because you were hurt in my car.
I'm with you because I've grown attached to you.
I hate you too!
I hate you and that's why I can't let you leave me!
Ms. Lee, do you also like Director Seo?
Do you regret getting divorced?
No, I don't regret it for his sake.
You have to choose between going about your carefree
bachelor ways, or making a serious commitment.
Only then will the woman not get hurt.
Mr. Jang's coming.
And?
Where's the report on the fund investment?
Director Seo asked me to postpone it.
How can he go over my head when I already made a decision?
Go get it right now.
Yes, sir.
Where are the papers on the Roseman merger?
Director Seo took them.
Tell him to come to my office now.
What is it?
He said you should go to his office.
