[Episode 15] I think this is a scam.
If you have no interest in hiring, but make it sound that way...
The job seekers will crowd in like rats, because they're desperate.
They could have better opportunities at other companies and with contests...
But they will invest all their time in Hauline's contest exhibition.
- Eun Ho Won, let's talk later. - Yeah.
Please continue.
I think the applicants should know that you won't be hiring this season.
If not, please exclude the part about special consideration for a job.
We understand, so don't complicate things. Sit down, okay?
We are deceiving people who are desperate, Chief Park!
Director Seo.
What did you say in your interview?
Didn't you say you knew what you had to do when you saw the three of us?
I think you are ridiculing 600,000 job seekers out there.
Please exclude the part about the special consideration for a job.
Hauline must remain an honest company.
Don't worry about it. I'll talk to her.
- Please get back to work. - Yes.
Get back safely.
Don't you think before you speak? How could you say that to Director Seo?
Director Seo was the one who assigned me this task.
So why can't I tell him my opinion?
You could have talked to me or Section Chief Heo...
or even Chief Seo.
About disregarding our levels and positions...
Director Seo was the one who talked about that at dinner.
And that's why he came to our meeting.
Didn't he come to listen to our opinions?
Shouldn't you know by now how the company works?
When are you going to stop saying everything that you want to say?
I didn't say what I wanted...
I thought it was something I had to say.
Eun Ho Won, you're no longer a temporary contractor.
If you're a permanent employee, shouldn't you put the company's profits first?
Section Chief Jo, you see...
I don't think it profits the company to trick desperate job seekers.
It's too late to change the main points of our contest outline.
Hey, Eun Ho Won.
Yes, Deputy Lee.
Who do you think you are? How dare you...
spit in someone else's business?
I acted that way because I was a job seeker not too long ago. It's unfair--
That's enough. Stop there.
You shouldn't think of the past. It's right not to.
Eun Ho Won, do you live your life, thinking of when you were a baby?
- It's not that-- - Stop.
Your superior is talking to you.
When our situations change, our thoughts and behavior should change too.
If you become a deputy like me, you must have appropriate class
and manners that suit your position.
So if you're a permanent employee, shouldn't you live for Hauline?
It's going to get noisy because of you.
I'm sorry.
Yes.
And the new project is coming along very well with the design team.
Section Chief Jo is more efficient than I expected.
The marketing team must have a lot of free time these days.
Because we don't have any additional promotional projects...
we're working on online promotion and other related projects.
There's always something to do.
And when the new products are secured, our team will be needed.
I'm thinking about restructuring this company.
I think this company is operating too recklessly.
At this rate, I don't know if this company will stay afloat.
I think Hauline needs to be managed differently.
So are you suggesting a reduction, transfer of employees...
and an innovative restructuring process for a stable company environment?
- Is that what you're saying? - I like the sound of that.
I'd like you to draft our restructuring plan.
It sounds fine, but you're suggesting that we fire our employees.
We will do that if we have to.
If you want to restructure this company without justification, they will oppose.
Why is there no justification?
We can use their performance scores.
Director Seo, our company is doing just fine.
If we reach a crisis, it'll be too late. I'm different than my father.
We should take care of it before it happens.
Why are you telling me this now?
Please work on the list of candidates for restructuring.
Why should I do that?
If the company gives you an order, it's your job to follow it.
Why do you keep asking questions?
I'm just asking an objective and cool-headed employee to do this task.
I can't take my eyes off of you.
I never know when you'll make another mistake.
Chief Seo.
I thought you acted carelessly because you were about to die.
Can you act like this when you have many days left to live?
Can you handle the aftermath?
We're...
not beggars who live off of false hope.
I don't think you understand how much pressure there is out there.
They are just words...
But you don't know how much hope they give us.
I don't think you should do whatever you want because you don't understand.
I don't think you should act carelessly because it's not your hope.
Are you done crying?
Chief Seo, you probably don't understand.
I have to smile even when I'm upset...
and I can't complain even when I think something is unfair.
I feel the same way these days.
Really?
Even when the contest conditions are unfair...
Do you know why no one complains?
Because they're desperate.
If we complain and someone notices...
we know what answer we'll get.
"Then don't do it."
I know what you're saying.
I know how you feel...
But can you overlook it just this time?
I have my reasons, so please listen to me.
Chief Seo, this is what you said when you congratulated me on my job...
It may seem like we're just signing papers with poise.
But in the end, we're making a promise to take responsibility for it.
So as our new employee, please make thoughtful decisions.
That's why I'm giving you this gift.
I think...
I'm using the job seekers' desperation...
and hope as bait...
To scam them.
This is my first task as a permanent employee.
So should I scam them with my own name?
Close your eyes, just once.
Turn the other way this time.
I thought you were different.
I thought you'd tell me...
to do what I believe in.
It's been a long time since you came to see me.
When I first met you, I thought we'd make a great team.
I will do everything in my power to successfully launch the new project.
Please reconsider restructuring the company.
I'm begging you.
This was unexpected.
I heard you focus on results.
Yes, that's true.
But, I can't evaluate our employees' performance with numbers alone.
- Numbers don't lie. - Yes, you're right.
But it's not everything.
If you work in the same office as our employees, you'll understand.
The results can't be achieved by one person's performance score.
Did I judge you incorrectly?
Were you always such a sentimental person?
I'm sorry I can't give you what you want.
Restructuring will be inevitable, but...
I'll look at your list of candidates, and consider how many people to let go.
[Lee Yong Jae]
[Ha Ji Na]
Yes.
This is the marketing team's budget.
The magazine advertisement will be done this week. Is there nothing else?
For the time being.
I thought it was strange because we've always consistently promoted our brands.
- We'll make plans soon enough. - Yes, I understand.
- Deputy Ha. - Yes, Chief Seo.
- Is your father still working? - Pardon?
I was just curious. How many siblings do you have?
Do they work?
Do you have plans to get married?
I have a younger brother who is studying at the moment.
And I want to get married soon.
But why are you asking all of a sudden?
Just because.
You don't normally ask any personal questions
so you caught me off guard.
- Is that so? - Yes.
But I'm happy because it feels like you're showing an interest in me.
So...
I really don't know anything about my employees.
- Deputy Ha, I'm finished. - Really?
Please check this too.
[Movie Ticket: One Spring Day]
Oh, this looks fun. I think it'll be interesting.
And, I think you should check this out as well.
[Train Ticket: Cheongryangri to Chuncheon]
Looks good.
- No. - I have something to tell you.
Chief Seo will see us. Let go.
Look at this bullshit. Good going.
What? Keep going! Keep rubbing your hands together.
They need to ban dating within the company.
I see you're neglecting your duties and disturbing us with no will to work!
- Deputy Lee. - What?
I warned you, didn't I? Your...
Shameful past.
Stop it.
What should I do? Should I just tell everyone?
Ha Ji Na, why are you being like this?
Fine, continue what you were doing with Senior Ki Taek.
Senior Ki Taek, I will cheer for your love!
Kiss! Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!
You're making me dance with my shoulders.
Geez.
That bastard.
Hey, what's his shameful past?
It's a secret.
That wench, she has no idea how I feel.
No, but I liked her as a colleague...
What the hell are you saying? I hate her!
No, don't be like that. You liked her a little bit, as a colleague.
Yeah, right. She's not a woman! She's not a woman!
I hate her!
No, what's wrong with you? Get your act together.
Don't get overexcited.
I'll get my revenge. Deputy Ha, I'll get my revenge.
Geez, is it because it's spring? I'm sore.
- Me too. - Really?
I don't have an appetite, and I can't digest anything...
Why am I tired from doing nothing?
Is it an occupational disease? Fatigue and indigestion?
It looked like you were studying at dawn.
- Are you taking your exam again? - Are you, Ki Taek?
No, I'm going to tell Ji Na this weekend...
I'm getting ready for my Korean cooking license exam.
Korean cooking license?
My parents run a restaurant.
It's not big, but they have a lot of regular customers.
Then, are you going to work at a restaurant?
After you got your permanent positions, I thought about what I should do.
Section Chief Heo said you can extend your contract
through the next hiring period.
But what's the point if they're not hiring anyone next season?
It's not just that.
I thought about what I want to do.
It was my dream to meet someone I love and live a simple life with children.
That sounds beautiful.
But...
I've always chased after the job and the happiness that other people value.
I thought I had to live the way other people live.
Yeah.
I sometimes wonder, if I wanted this life...
or if it's what my mom wanted.
That's why I'm going to chase after my own dream. I like to cook.
- Your cooking tastes great. - Yeah, your ramen.
I think I took after my dad in cooking.
Hey, why is cooking so much fun?
Deputy Ha is so lucky.
I'll get my certification, help my parents, and then set up my own place.
I admire you.
I'll give you free food when you come.
If you give away free food, Deputy Ha won't like it.
I don't think you know her. Ji Na is not that frugal.
[We've received your submission for Hauline's 2017 design contest...]
[The email has been sent.]
[You have mail.]
I'm a university student, who applied for the contest.
Is it true that the winner will get special consideration for a job?
Can you tell me when you'll be hiring?
[Hello, I'm...]
- Eun Ho Won. - Yes.
Please make three copies and organize them in order.
Sure.
- Is the world ending? - No, Deputy Lee.
- What's wrong? - It's nothing.
Chief Seo is being weird so the whole office is awkward today.
That reminds me. Can you buy a cake on your way to work tomorrow morning?
Is it someone's birthday?
[Employee Evaluation Guideline: Sales and Marketing]
Please put my name at the top of the list.
What do you mean? subtitles ripped and synced by riri13
It must be difficult making a list of candidates for the restructuring plan.
How did you know about that?
I've been here a while. I told you I have many eyes and ears.
I didn't know this before.
Section Chief Jo is a single mom who raises her daughter by herself...
And Chief Park sent his children to study abroad so he's by himself all the time.
Deputy Lee is in a lot of debt from paying for his siblings' tuition fees.
And--
And I'm currently nursing my two parents who have dementia?
I'm sorry, Section Chief Heo.
I didn't ask about my employees' lives. I focused on work and results...
I think I focused on it too much.
I didn't get a very good performance score last year.
It must be burdensome to have a section chief who is as old as me.
I was prepared for this, and that's why I wanted to talk to you today.
I thought Chairman Seo made you a promise.
I don't believe promises that superiors make.
You're wise.
It looks like Director Seo is doing this to train you...
I knew I wouldn't last long under Director Seo.
Because no matter what happens, I'm on Chairman Seo's side.
I don't know what I should do now, Section Chief Heo.
You have two options. Follow his orders, or don't follow his orders.
For someone on a salary, the difference is...
Cheers.
I think you'll see that difference in your next pay check.
Why isn't anyone here yet?
- Happy birthday to you... - Chief Seo.
Happy birthday, Chief Seo...
Happy birthday to you!
- Happy birthday, Chief Seo! - Blow out the candles, Chief Seo.
Geez, it's more fun if we put cake in your face. But you're our chief.
- Happy birthday. - Thank you.
Did you eat seaweed soup this morning?
- Let's have it for lunch. - Then, are you paying?
- Sure. - Woohoo!
- Happy birthday. - Happy birthday.
- Thank you. - Gosh, you make him sound old.
I know, that's why we have to put cream on your face.
It makes you look younger. Should I do it?
- No thanks. - Okay.
Why is it so noisy this morning?
It's Chief Seo's happy, happy, birthday party!
Oh, I heard from Deputy Ha, but you started early.
- Happy birthday, Chief Seo. - Thank you.
Geez, I don't know if you should be congratulated for this.
- Anyway, what a nice day. - Let's taste the birthday cake.
- Sounds good! - Let's go!
Happy birthday. Happy birthday. Happy birthday, Chief Seo.
It's delicious. It's been a long time.
- Yeah, it has. - Do you want some more?
Yes, I'd like some more.
Since we're together, I have something to say.
If it's about lunch, there's a new restaurant across the street.
They have the best sweet and sour pork.
Oh, we were supposed to have seaweed soup, right? I'm sorry.
Um, so...
Why are you hesitating? Just say it.
Our director...
is coming up with a list of candidates for his restructuring plan.
Re... Restructuring?
What does that mean? I don't know anything about a restructuring plan.
Section Chief Jo, did you know about this?
I didn't know.
Wow, your acting skills have improved.
- Chief Seo, when did you find out? - I found out recently.
Is this Director Seo's idea?
We're in trouble now.
That's why...
He told me not to do anything.
I decided that I should tell you the truth
so we can look for a solution together.
I think you made everyone confused instead.
If anyone wants to voluntarily resign...
Please come to my office.
Section Chief Heo, this won't affect the deputies too, will it?
Does that mean Chief Seo was making a list of employees to fire?
Geez, good thing I didn't rub whipped cream in his face.
Don't worry too much.
This won't affect the young employees who haven't been here for long.
It's more worrisome for older employees like me.
- Don't worry. - Right?
But why did he have to announce this on his birthday?
He sure knows how to make a scene with such news.
Geez, my head is about to explode.
Hey, get out of my way!
Who is this from?
Dear Chief Seo Woo Jin.
When I first met you...
I wanted to impress you no matter what.
I'm very good at enduring hardship.
Really? Then please prove it to me.
I was scared when I met you for the second time.
But I felt daring that day.
My motive? Do you really not know?
I'm here so I can feed myself!
What about you?
Are you putting your lives on the line for this company?
I can't let that happen.
And when I saw you again...
You rejected me.
Eun Ho Won can work on the sales team.
It's not like she can survive on the marketing team by just enduring it.
And she wants power, so that won't work on my team.
And she's irresponsible.
But in the end, I worked under you...
and I learned a lot.
I learned how to work hard, take responsibility, and above all else...
Are you going to do whatever they tell you to do?
No one can prove your worth but yourself.
You taught me that I'm the only one who can prove my worth.
I will learn more from now on.
I think I can do even better, if you teach me.
At my very first job...
I met you as my superior.
And that was a huge blessing in my life.
Thank you, Chief Seo. Happy birthday.
Sincerely, Eun Ho Won.
Do you think we'll be okay?
There's a hurdle to overcome no matter what we do.
Is this why we tried so hard to become permanent employees?
Was Chief Seo watching over us to decide who he was going to fire?
No, that's not true. He told us because he doesn't want to do it.
Chief Seo sure knows how to catch us off guard.
After Doctor Seo became our director...
This company became a lot more brutal.
Considering what he did to us, he's not a normal director.
Ho Won, be careful.
Director Seo already doesn't like you.
Try not to stick out.
Are you telling me that Chief Seo told all the employees?
About our list of candidates for our restructuring plan?
Yes, Chief Seo is a very unpredictable person.
In front of everyone, on his birthday...
- I'm sure you were shocked as well. - No, I wasn't.
I assumed there was a deeper meaning if you decided to keep this a secret.
- Thank you for thinking of it that way. - No need to thank me.
Chief Seo must have felt burdened about doing that behind their backs.
I think he wanted to know if anyone wanted to resign voluntarily.
I think Chief Seo crossed the line with this one.
Yes, a little bit...
Wow! Drink up!
Chief Seo, you've changed a lot. You normally don't do this.
This might be our last chance for a while, let's drink a lot tonight.
About the restructuring plan...
How deep will it go? Will we be okay?
Someone told me, "If you're happy today, you can be happy all the time."
Let's worry about it tomorrow. It's Friday, so we should have fun.
Chief Seo, you've changed so much, I don't know what to do.
Really? Then let's take it a bit further.
Let's drink and talk about good things, Deputy Ha.
- Okay. - Here.
Cheers.
Chief Seo, is our company really struggling this much?
Why is our company considering restructuring?
This is Director Seo's doing, isn't it?
Hey, stop it.
She can curse at him since he's not here.
Bring me another beer!
- Shouldn't you take her home? - That's okay.
Deputy Ha, when a new president is elected, the organization changes too.
Let's survive this together.
Chief Seo, I can't quit my job.
I still have a long way to go with my installment savings.
And I have to keep this man fed!
Thank you, Deputy Ha, but please stop.
What? Who says the man should provide for the woman?
You assist me at home, as my husband.
I'll take care of everything on the outside.
I'm just saying, I'll take responsibility for my man!
I'm sorry, Chief Seo and Section Chief Heo.
I'm jealous, Do Ki Taek.
I don't have anyone to take responsibility for outside our company.
If you're jealous, you lose, Chief Seo.
I'm not good at losing.
- I'm jealous, Ki Taek. - Right?
That's why I'm telling you to go on that blind date.
- Blind date? - Yes.
I have a friend who is good-looking, has a good personality and a good job.
- But he's single. - Stop it, Ki Taek.
Why? I want to introduce him to Ho Won.
He likes girls like Ho Won. He likes cute girls with a good personality.
She doesn't have a good personality.
Why not? Eun Ho Won has a good personality.
I thought you said you'll work hard if I teach you. But a blind date?
Why can't I go on a date, Chief Seo?
Go ahead.
It wasn't that long ago that you told me you liked me.
Since you're a permanent employee, just focus on learning your work.
Love is more important, Chief Seo.
No matter what situation or moment I'm in...
I live for love.
So, are you going on that date?
I want to.
Ki Taek, my beer. Give me beer.
Yeah, sure. Here's your beer.
- Why aren't they giving me beer? - One more beer please!
They'd better not fire me. I'll mess them up.
You've become violent for a woman.
Geez. That's right, stick with me.
Why can't poor people love too?
Even if I were poor and shabby right now, I'd still love you just as much.
- Let me down. - I thought you were sleeping.
Let me down.
There's such a thing as poor love, but not shabby love.
Don't ever make me live a shabby life.
Chief Seo, you told me not to do anything because of the restructuring plan, right?
I know you don't have a good relationship with Director Seo.
I'm worried, but he won't lay a finger
on deputies or employees who haven't been here for very long.
Then, what about everyone else?
Oh, thank you for the tie and your letter.
I'm sure you'd look good in everything.
Even rubber sandals look good on you. And neck ties too.
Probably.
Oh, so...
- Are you going on that date? - I think I should.
Ki Taek said we should live for love.
Shouldn't I do that too?
It wasn't that long ago that you wanted to learn how to work...
But you're saying something else now.
I'm just saying, I want to work and love at the same time.
I want to do well in everything.
I heard you make good kimbap too.
- Who told you that? - Do Ki Taek.
Well, it's not bad.
If you don't have plans tomorrow, why don't you make kimbap for me?
It's not hard, so I'll do it for you if you'd like.
You've given me a lot of gifts.
- Kang Ho, why don't you go home? - Yes.
Aren't you going home?
No, I still have some work to do. Go ahead.
Okay.
How is it going these days? Did you get used to living by yourself?
Yes, of course. It's going well.
I'm relieved. Go home.
Yes.
- Section Chief Jo. - Yes?
Here.
What is this?
I was thankful that you bought us dinner at the hotel the other night.
So I wanted to show you my gratitude.
I'm not comfortable receiving this.
It's not expensive. I just thought it was pretty.
I'll see you tomorrow.
I mean, I'll see you on Monday.
[Jang Kang Ho]
You make kimbap pretty often these days. What is it today?
Do you have a date because it's the weekend?
- It's not a date. - It is.
No, it's not.
You're so transparent. You don't have a good poker face.
- It's really not a date. - Sure, it's a fake date then.
If it's a date, can you do me a favor?
It's your date. Why would I do you a favor?
- I'll give you half of my kimbap. - Half?
- Yeah, deal? - What do you want?
Well, you know the dress that you bought but don't wear?
You said you don't like the color. Can you lend it to me?
It's not a date, but I have to wear something pretty.
- I see why people talk about it. - Pardon?
It's delicious.
Chief Seo, do you like kimbap?
I know how to make kimchi stew and soy bean stew...
but I can't make kimbap very well, even though it's good when it's homemade.
I like kimchi stew.
Then, let's trade. I'll make kimchi stew, and you can make kimbap.
A trade?
But, since we came here, just the two of us...
If our colleagues see us...
Then what? It can't happen?
No, it's not that... It's just...
- You're so inconsistent. - Pardon? Why?
Why do you care about what they think when you always say whatever you want?
Well, it's not that I care, but...
It was you who cared all this time.
I couldn't talk to you in our neighborhood...
and you told me not to tell anyone we live in the same neighborhood.
That was because I didn't want our colleagues to talk about you.
I was just worrying about you. I didn't really care.
Then are you okay with people talking about us now?
Yeah, I guess so.
Hold on tight. You'll fall off if you don't.
Yes.
That's right. You have to hold on like that if you don't want to fall off.
Sang Man!
Sit down.
Why are you in front of the company on a weekend? And why did you call me here?
The sauna near the company is the best.
I guess it's not my company anymore.
But why would you come all the way here for the sauna?
What should I do? I have a monthly pass.
And if I come on a weekday and run into someone, I'll be ashamed.
Geez, I guess you know what's shameful, at least...
How is it at work these days?
Director Seo started his restructuring process.
There are not many days left.
Geez, seriously.
Anyway, are things okay at home?
My wife took all my credit cards.
When I made money, she treated me like a person...
But now that I don't earn money, no one treats me like a human being.
Of course.
But you're a problem too. Are you thoughtless or do you have nerve?
How could you eat all three meals at home? That's why you're getting shit.
That's why I thought of another business idea.
- Hello! - Yes.
- Here are your beers and snacks. - When did you order these? Anyway...
- What about a convenience store? - Are you opening a convenience store?
Well, it's better than chicken.
- If it's near a company, it can succeed. - That's true.
Geez, that was in the old days. These days, I make barely anything.
And part-timers always quit, but I still need them...
And I'm becoming ill from working night shifts.
And it gets really scary at night! This isn't something anyone should do!
He's getting overexcited.
Then let me ask you something. Why do you do it then?
Pardon?
- Sang Man. - Yes.
Let's do it.
Well, it's better than chicken.
Have a nice day.
He's late.
[Ki Taek]
[Ji Na]
Chief Seo.
The weather is so nice today.
By the way...
What?
Well, the thing is...
Here.
- This looks familiar. - Right?
My mom said she got this from a really famous place.
Can't you keep it? She says it'll take you straight to the president's position.
Eun Ho Won, I guess you don't know this.
If you like shortcuts, you could get fired quickly too.
If you move up quickly, you'll be gone quickly too.
But that doesn't apply to you.
Can't you keep it? It'd be a shame to throw it away.
Here.
You try it. Get to the president's position.
Why not? From a female section chief, to a female chief...
to a female board member, to a female president.
Why don't you try to rewrite our company's history?
Me? But even Section Chief Jo can't do it. How could I?
Because you're Eun Ho Won. From what I've seen, I think you can do it.
Well, you should think of your brother...
and think carefully before you act.
Hold back when you have to, okay?
Chief Seo...
Is this because of the contest exhibit?
I know there are a lot of unfair things in this world.
But, you can't solve everything on your own.
Then can you help me?
I can't help you either.
But let's think about it together.
We're weak alone, but we're stronger together.
Everyone thinks about how they'll succeed by themselves...
But if we put our heads together, things will get better.
Yes.
I've thrown too many tantrums, haven't I?
I will do better from now on.
I'll become the president one day. Look forward to it.
Sounds good. I want to work under President Eun.
What happened? Do you know how many times I called you?
Why didn't you answer your phone? Why didn't you show up? What happened?
Ki Taek.
Is something wrong?
What is it?
My friend is very sick.
He's a friend I've known since I was born.
He's very sick.
Who? Is it a friend I don't know?
You don't know him.
Wait, how sick is he?
Very.
He's very sick.
He could die.
I feel so bad for him.
I'm sorry, Ji Na.
That's okay.
If you were that close, then I'm sure you weren't in your right mind.
I'm sorry.
But you should have answered your phone. I was worried.
Here.
We don't need to go anywhere. I feel like we're on vacation.
Yeah.
You must have worried a lot today. Eat lots, even though you prepared it.
You don't look so good today.
Hurry up and eat. You should have eaten without me. What were you thinking?
I'm eating such good food because I waited. Why would I eat alone?
Let's eat.
Eat some anchovies too.
Here. This too.
- Eat, Ki Taek. - No, here.
My mom made this.
- You too. - Let's eat.
Eat slowly.
I must have been hungry.
Geez, this is good.
It's delicious.
Don't worry too much.
Did you have a good weekend?
We don't have many days left together.
Who are you talking to?
Oh, good morning, my colleague, Jang Kang Ho.
- Are you happy about something? - Me? I am.
Everyone I love is here, and I can see them every day. What's better than that?
Hey, it sounds like you had a lot of fun with Deputy Ha last weekend.
Yeah, it was fun.
We went on a very long trip.
- Hello. - Oh.
Ho Won seems to be the happy one. Look at her face. How was your weekend?
Me?
I did my laundry, cleaned, and cooked.
Oh, what about you? Did you visit your parents?
Yeah, I made up with my dad over some alcohol.
Oh, does he approve?
Did you forget what Chief Seo said? I decide my own worth.
That's what he said.
- Let's go inside. - Sure.
Go without me. I'm going to go to the convenience store first.
- Yeah? - We're going in then.
- What? Kimbap? - Yeah.
What about it?
Chief Seo, your neck tie suits you. Is it a special day?
You look more dressed up than usual.
Really? It was a gift.
I guess she has good fashion sense.
I know the marketing team's budget interfered with our original tasks.
Then are we still not doing any Hauliz promotional projects?
For the time being.
That's why, I would like Eun Ho Won and Do Ki Taek
to work on the online promotion project that we originally outsourced.
When you worked on the catalogue together, you showed good teamwork.
Yes, we will do that.
Yes, Sir.
And Deputy Ha, please look into how we can increase sales for Hauliz.
- Yes. - And Section Chief Heo...
Please plan out a way to sell our products abroad with the sales team.
Yes, is this a plan to endure for as long as we can?
Yes, please hang in there. I believe in your abilities.
I'm going to Director Seo's office for an approval.
- Is he in? - He's waiting inside.
Yes, come in.
I'm thinking of firing two employees from the sales and marketing teams.
Did you decide on who they'll be?
There are no candidates on my team.
Chief Seo, are you implying that we have employees we should fire?
There are four permanent employees including myself. It's already difficult.
I can't lose anyone.
Is that why you told your employees about it?
How much longer do you think I'll go easy on you for the way you work?
Were you going easy on me?
The employees are shaken up, and the mood is strange around here.
- What are you trying to do? - I'm just trying to work.
- Chief Seo, what's wrong with you? - Chief Seo.
Are you trying to joke around with me?
You don't have a good sense of humor, so I'll pass on that.
I'm here for an approval.
[Resignation]
What is this?
Should I have written it in Korean? Can't you read?
It's my resignation letter.
