[Episode 8: You're My Paderella]
I can't take my eyes off of you for a single moment.
Wipe yourself off.
It seems like you enjoy pouring wine all over yourself instead of drinking it.
Good thing it wasn't a bigger accident. We would have had to call 911 again.
Stop it.
You were beautiful.
I'm talking about your dress. It was expensive.
Wait, do I have to pay you back for this dress too?
I don't think 10 meals will cut it this time.
Wait a minute, I didn't ask to wear this dress!
You told me to wear it and meet you down here.
Excuse me.
I apologize on the behalf of my employee for the inconvenience.
I apologize.
Well...
Accidents happen. It wasn't intentional.
- It's okay. - No.
I was apologizing to this lady here.
Please apologize.
- Why should I do that? - Aren't you a director at Daebok Group?
If your employee caused this accident, you should certainly apologize.
Go on.
I apologize.
That's okay. I'm fine.
I think you train your employees very well.
You're on a different level than someone who called me a raged bull.
Here is a token of our apology.
It was my fault too. This is too much. It's okay.
I hope you both have an enjoyable night.
What are you doing?
I'll keep this, so you don't break it again.
Director Cha, this is mine.
I was the one who was almost hit by a cart, and the wine spilled on me
so why are you taking it?
But I was the one who saved you from almost being fatally hit by the cart.
And she clearly addressed both of us...
when she gave us this wine.
Then doesn't half of this bottle belong to me?
Gosh, this is unbelievable.
Then are you suggesting we drink this together?
I don't see why not in our relationship.
Ou... Our relationship? I'm speechless.
Give it to me.
- No. - Give it to me right now.
I'll catch you.
Is this an expensive wine?
That was close.
Here it is.
Geez.
Seriously. Give it to me!
I caught you!
I'm caught.
Wait for me upstairs. I'll bring the wine glasses.
Cuties, get home safely.
I'm about to close up and go home.
It's me.
- Hey, I told you no-- - I'm here for a beer.
I'm here to drink. I'm not here for work.
Only one.
But, it seems Lee Yoo Mi hasn't come home yet.
- She's on a business trip. - A business trip? Who...
- Since when does she go on trips? - I know, right?
Did you just let her go?
You should have stopped her!
Even if it's a business trip, another man is spending the night with your girl!
- Hey, what are you imagining? - Exactly what you're thinking!
Let's... have some wine.
Hey, you don't know Yoo Mi. She's not like that.
I think you're the one who doesn't know her.
Women are sly.
You don't know a woman from her appearance alone.
You know the girls who look naive?
They use two or three bra pads to make their chest look huge
and they even stuff tissues and socks in there too.
But, of course...
I don't need that.
- You worked hard. - You too.
This brings back old memories.
Sometimes...
No, I thought about you quite often.
Whenever I drank wine...
Whenever I came here...
Whenever I got a 500 coin back as change, I flipped it.
To be honest...
I didn't know you'd disappear like that.
- I thought-- - I thought I'd never see you again.
No, to be more exact...
I didn't want to start a relationship that way.
Did you dislike me that much?
Of... Of course.
But why? What didn't you like about me?
Do you really have no idea?
You called me a raged bull
and you saw me looking shabby on the bathroom floor.
And on our first night, it wasn't anywhere else but in a car...
And what? Keep going.
No, I'll stop there.
Anyway, I don't think that was the right thing to do.
Do you regret what happened that night?
Yes.
I don't say anything that I don't mean.
I clearly tell people if I like them or not.
I don't know why people tire themselves out by playing hard to get.
They say, the best way to do it, is to not play hard to get.
I like your refreshing personality.
Are you confessing that you like me?
- Are you drunk? - I didn't drink that much.
I have a higher tolerance despite the way I look.
- You look like you would too. - Really?
Do you know how it feels?
Every other man likes me...
But the person I like has no interest in me.
It's a pretty lonely feeling.
We finished it already.
By the way, about the jewelry box--
It has nothing to do with you.
- Forget about it. - Are you mad at me?
Not at all.
Wh... What? Do you think you mean anything to me?
- You said you often thought about me. - When did I say that?
Never mind. I must have misunderstood.
Let's get going.
Sit down. I'll get you some water.
It's been 12 years since I liked Jin Wook.
I only have Jin Wook.
Even when other guys showed interest in me
I thought of Jin Wook...
so I turned them all down.
You're a coward.
Who? Me?
You shouldn't say you did that for anyone else. Those are excuses.
We do it because we want to.
It's not for anyone else
and it's not because we thought about that person.
It's when we want to do something for the person we like.
Hey, what makes you think you're so much better?
You can't even be honest with the girl you like.
To be frank...
I think you're more of a coward than I am.
You're a dimwit, you son of a bitch.
Hey, I'm leaving.
I'm out of here.
Sometimes...
No, I thought about you quite often.
Whenever I drank wine... Whenever I came here...
Whenever I got a 500 won coin back as change, I flipped it.
I don't see why not in our relationship.
Our relationship? I'm not sure. What relationship is this?
I don't know either.
Forget it. What can I say if I show this to her?
Thank you. We will do our best.
You read my mind. How did you know I have a weakness for good food?
I made up my mind quickly, thanks to that competent dietitian.
Good work, Director Cha.
This reminds me of three years ago. How did you get here?
- I took the shuttle bus. - Then get going.
- Pardon me? - Go.
I'll see you in Seoul.
I wonder when the next bus is leaving...
See you in an hour.
- Why are we at the pool all of a sudden? - To swim.
- But there's no one here. - I rented it out.
Pardon me? This entire pool?
This is my father's resort.
I hate swimming in the same pool with strangers.
I see.
Since I can't really swim, I'll be at the spa.
Where do you think you're going?
- You need to watch. - Pardon me?
I asked you to be here so you can watch me swim.
But, why should I watch you swim?
My feet could cramp up all of a sudden...
or if I suddenly went into cardiac arrest, I'd someone to call for help.
Am I here to look out for your safety then?
Shouldn't Secretary Jang do that...
Why are you acting that way?
This isn't the first time you saw my body.
Do you still regret what happened that night?
Why are you bringing that up out of the blue?
Because what you said bothers me.
Then what about you? Don't you regret it?
I don't regret it.
Because I was being honest to my true feelings.
I wish you didn't regret it
and think of it as an embarrassing memory.
Can you pull me out?
Are you crazy?
What if something went wrong? I can't swim!
Hey, you don't get the hiccups anymore.
I... I should go.
Where are you going?
Stop fooling around.
My feet could cramp up all of a sudden
or if I suddenly went into cardiac arrest, I'd someone to call for help.
What do I do? Please help!
Director Cha! Please help us!
Hey, hurry!
Please hurry!
- Check his pulse! - Yes!
Director Cha...
- Go. - Pardon me?
I told you to go. Get out of here.
Please wake up. Please don't die!
Where are you going? Where are you going?
- Please don't go. - Go!
- We'll call for help... - Director Cha!
Please wake up. Please wake up, Director Cha.
I don't regret that night either. It was a very special day for me.
I'm glad... I'm glad it was with you.
I even saw my bra pad in your jewelry box!
Director Cha.
Di... Did you really see that?
Damn it! You scared me!
I... I was just fooling around. Did you really see it?
That night, when I hid in your closet. That's when I saw it.
I don't know why that was in there.
But we all have our unique preferences.
- I have my own preferences too. - Yes.
But, why did you bring it here?
Now that the owner is here, I should return it to her.
- Pervert. - Hey, seriously.
I'm not a pervert.
That's all you left behind, so what was I supposed to do?
It wasn't even a shoe. Are you "Paderella" or what?
- Paderella? - That's right, Paderella.
If I think about how much I went through because of it...
Wow.
Fine, I can understand how you might think I'm a pervert.
Even I don't know why I kept it all this time.
But...
If I didn't have that...
I wouldn't have been able to remember the memories we shared.
Thank you.
For treasuring it.
If you're really thankful...
Can you do that one more time?
If you're really thankful, I think that's the least you can do.
Today, you're really not getting the hiccups.
Have a good night.
You too.
Wait.
By the way, I'm curious about something.
It's about the initials.
Why is it "M.H." and not "Y.M."?
It's not a brand name either.
You don't have to know that.
Do... you happen to be hungry?
Get back safely.
Ho... How about some ramen?
Geez, she's cold.
Sleep tight.
I don't regret that night.
Because I was true to my feelings.
What should I do?
What else? I'll go wherever my heart takes me.
Let's see how far it takes us.
He's meeting this nutritionist instead of our Hye Ri?
Should I call Director Cha to your office?
No.
If I act with haste, No one knows how he'll react.
For now, look into this girl.
Check who she is, what family she comes from, and if she has any flaws.
- You're up early. - Yeah, I'm going to write a manuscript.
Hey, are you writing a new book?
You look happy for someone who just came back from a business trip.
What? Oh.
After sharing my bed with two other people
sleeping by myself was more comfortable than ever.
Alone?
I'm so pathetic for feeling relieved about this.
What?
Joo Hye Ri came here while you were away.
Joo Hye Ri? What for? To cast you for her show?
No, just to drink. It seemed like she was miserable.
Oh, really?
How was your business trip with Three Meals A Day?
I'm late.
Do you want to go grocery shopping with me for Dong Goo's birthday?
Sure, I'll pick you up after work.
- Okay, see you later. - See you.
I'm such an idiot.
[Three Meals A Day]
[Director Cha]
Did you remember to eat lunch?
Yes.
I shouldn't have let you stop making my meals.
I don't have an excuse to see you at work anymore.
I'm... a little bit... sad.
She's not good at playing hard to get either.
Director Cha, I didn't know you could smile like that.
Like what?
Let's have dinner together after work.
I can't tonight. It's my dog's birthday.
Her dog?
Did she just reject me for her dog?
He shouldn't be sad that I turned down dinner because of a birthday party.
Yoo Mi!
Hey, you worked hard today.
Get on.
- There, I'm ready. - Here we go.
Let's go!
That woman, seriously.
- What are you doing? - Dong Goo likes these.
No, you don't even know him.
Here it is.
Dong Goo is obsessed with these.
- He only eats these. - You like these.
Hm, what else should we buy?
Oh, this is the one I like.
Yoo Mi.
- Hey! - I scared you.
- Let's get this one. - This? Let's buy this one too.
No!
When did you buy this?
Dong Goo is a guy too, so he should have a suit of his own.
Hyun Tae sure has a good sense of style.
Yoo Mi, thanks for preparing Dong Goo's birthday dinner.
It's our fault for having a mother who can't even cook rice.
Let's blow out the candles and eat. I'm hungry.
- Light the candles. - Sure.
Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you.
Happy birthday, dear Dong Goo. Happy birthday to you.
Blow out the candles. One, two, three.
- Wow! - Wow!
- I'll turn on the lights. - Sure.
Good job, Dong Goo. Wow.
We're closed...
- Director Cha. - Are you the director?
- Goodness. Yoo Mi, did you invite him? - No, it's not that...
I came here on my own because I heard you're having a birthday party.
But why did you bring dog food?
I guess we do have a cute dog in our household.
But, who's that kid?
He's our pride and honor.
- Our Dong Goo is my-- - Mom!
- It's Dong Goo's bedtime. - Hey, we just started.
Since it's your birthday, I'll let you watch Dino Slam as much as you want.
- Go upstairs and eat some cake. - Gosh, why?
Hurry up.
I want to stay here longer and go upstairs a little later.
- Gosh, hurry up! - Fine!
Oh my, you're ripped.
Hyun Tae, I think you have some competition.
- Gosh, hurry up! - This wench.
Gosh, seriously.
I don't want to explain my complicated family life to my superior from work.
Superior? Not your boyfriend?
Go inside.
I'm sure you don't enter a woman's home where she lives alone, do you?
I do sometimes, within reason.
Anyway, do you get any business here?
It's not a bar, but it's not a bookstore either.
It's so vague.
Maybe it resembles its owner.
I make enough for a living.
I don't foolishly overwork myself until I collapse due to malnutrition.
Wow!
Shall we toast to that?
- One more beer? - Sure.
Are you sure you'll be okay?
I don't want to go home!
- What's wrong with you? - Geez.
Three Meals A Day! I want to leave with Three Meals A Day!
Three Meals A Day...
Wow.
Director Cha.
If I call you a designated driver, do you think you can get home safely?
If I call you a designated driver, can you get home safely?
No! I can't.
No, I won't.
Pardon me?
I don't want to go home.
I don't want to sleep alone...
And I don't want to eat by myself either.
So you better not lay a finger on me.
Fine, I won't make you go home.
Sleep here, okay?
You should have said that earlier.
Geez.
- Where are you going on a weekend? - I forgot about my training session.
PD Lee, when are you free? I want to talk to you about something.
I have time during my lunch break. Can you drop by the broadcast station?
When Director Cha wakes up, feed him before he goes home.
- And don't say anything else. - I got it, you wench.
Oh, the soup.
[Closed Today: The boss drank too much last night.]
It hurts. It hurts...
Hey, what are you doing here?
You're awake. Oh my goodness.
You're still cute with that hairstyle.
Pardon me? What do you mean?
Ouch, that hurt.
Yoo Mi made some pollack soup, so go upstairs and help yourself.
But...
Oh my goodness.
Geez, what's going on?
Gosh, don't you remember?
No, I don't remember.
Seriously.
One more?
Yeah.
- One more? - Ready? Cue.
Who the hell are you? You're not her friend, are you?
Who knows?
It's always a mystery when it comes to human relationships.
Don't overstep your boundaries as Yoo Mi's superior at work.
Do I look like I'm nothing more than Lee Yoo Mi's superior?
Stop hitting on Yoo Mi.
Then why don't you decide where you stand instead of being so vague!
I want you to stop harassing this naive girl by abusing your power.
I hope you're finished.
What? What if I keep going? What are you going to do about it?
Get up, you punk.
Hey, get up.
- What are you two doing? - Stay out...
Hey, are you scared? I told you to get up!
He's out like a light when he drinks too much.
Director Cha, please go home.
I'll call you a designated driver.
This sneaky, little son of a bitch.
He's not a friend. He has ulterior motives!
He's a sneaky bastard! Get up!
I don't know what you're saying.
Geez, I'm so annoyed!
I'm annoyed.
I hate it when you're with another man.
You have the hiccups again.
You're cute. You're so cute...
Director Cha?
Director Cha.
I remember it now. I apologize for the trouble.
No, don't worry about it. By the way...
I have to go out for an important meeting.
Sure, then I'll leave too--
But, there's no one to babysit Dong Goo.
I see.
Please look after our boy for a few hours.
Excuse me? Why me?
I'm not sure.
If you want to impress Yoo Mi...
You should treat him well.
Then, I'll entrust you with him. Goodbye, Dong Goo!
Wait, don't just say goodbye...
Cure your hangover before you eat.
Chew it well, or just swallow it.
Do whatever you want.
What are you looking at?
Hey, does that boss come over often?
Why am I asking a kid?
Wow, Lee Yoo Mi.
You even searched far and wide for such a classic.
How impressive.
[It's Going to Burst]
Hey, aren't you going to give me my phone back?
Hey, you should be running around outside at your age.
Don't sit around... with a phone.
Come here. Let's get up.
Put this down.
Let's go and run around outside.
There you go. Again?
Let's go.
Where did your mom go? Get up there.
- Is this where that girl lives? - Yes.
She is renting out an apartment above a cafe.
His standards for women are below rock bottom.
I need to pull out the roots before it sprouts.
Huh? What's that? Pull over.
What is that punk doing over there?
And who's that kid?
That punk.

[Epilogue: Revenge Is Mine]
You worked hard.
This reminds me of three years ago. How did you get here?
I took the shuttle bus.
Then, get going.
- Pardon me? - Take it back to Seoul.
By myself?
I'll see you in Seoul.
[Epilogue: The Picky Director's Sleeping Style]
[I'm full. I'm uncomfortable. My clothes are uncomfortable too.]
[He wriggles around. He does it instinctively.]
[This is how the director of an underwear company sleeps.]
[Epilogue: Love Love Love Is So Good]
Did you worry a lot about me?
[They're kissing. He's the master of kissing.]
Don't do it.
[They're so lovey dovey. This is what they call love.]
[I rented out the pool. I waited three years for our alone time.]
I'm leaving.
Then I'll die again. I'll die again.
Come here. Come over here!
[My Secret Romance]
Oh my, Dong Goo looks just like his father.
- Who is he? - About that...
I'm sure you know why I'm here.
Please tell me everything that happened three years ago.
In my entire life, you were the only person I did it with.
I didn't think a family suited me.
But with these two, I might be able to do it.
Do you think you'll be okay? He's not an average person.
I want to go where my heart takes me.
