Episode 8
As a contractor, you may feel differently.
Please tell us something. There must be many job seekers wanting to work here.
These people...
are all lying.
Do families hate each other and hurt each other?
Out of all the OECD countries, Korea has the most impenetrable glass ceiling.
So Hauline, where women are not discriminated against
must not be a Korean company.
I found out once I started working here.
If you're like Section Chief Jo, who comes to work after an accident
the glass ceiling should be broken.
And Deputy Lee, who accepts unfair orders from his superiors...
also must be our family.
And...
They say people who love too much are weak.
Our company is full of weak people.
That's why, if you're more than willing to be weak...
and if you're willing to love more than you receive
please apply to Hauline.
Wait. Wait a minute.
What did she just say? What was that?
- I think she said something nice. - Wait, please edit that out.
Please call them ask them to check the article before it's released.
Yes.
Eun Ho Won.
What the hell are you trying to do? This is unbelievable.
You should think about our company's image.
Even if you're immature, you can't be that irresponsible.
I didn't know our image was all a lie.
We're all suffering because of our sales performance.
How can this company be a big happy family?
What?
Please don't assess the contractors based on our sales performance.
- What? - I want to learn
how to make make products and sell them wisely.
I don't want to beg our relatives and friends...
because after we sell some, what happens after that?
If we use our own credit cards to buy some furniture to keep our jobs
- what happens after that? - Wait.
What are you saying?
Did someone order you to increase our sales?
What are you saying, Eun Ho Won? I wasn't aware of this.
You must have misunderstood. No one would have--
That's what I'm saying. Who asked you to do that?
- We were told to do it. - But who asked you to do that?
Deputy Lee. He said that's how we'll become permanent employees.
Please don't threaten us like this. It's so petty.
We're doing our best to work hard.
But...
This is too much.
- Eun Ho Won, please leave. - Pardon?
Leave!
Eun Ho Won, you did it again.
Hey, you didn't have to do anything if you didn't want to. You went too far.
I'm sorry, Deputy Lee.
I know you didn't ask us to do that because you wanted to.
- Well, that's true-- - Gosh, here we go again.
It's because job seekers apply to this company after being misinformed.
- That's why Ho Won was-- - Why are you standing up for her?
I was talking to Eun Ho Won.
- I'm sorry. - It's okay.
I actually feel better now. You did a good job.
What if they tell you to quit again?
Nothing will stop me now.
This is total chaos.
Wow.
I'm embarrassed.
You shouldn't have ordered them to that.
What? What did I do?
Did I hit someone or scam someone? Why are you overreacting?
Should I call Deputy Lee in here? Should we ask everyone about this?
- Do you want to be humiliated like that? - Seriously.
How am I supposed to face my employees?
Chief Seo.
Wow, this is unbelievable.
Hey, Section Chief Jo, what are you doing? Tell him the truth.
I think you misunderstood. Chief Park never asked them to do that.
Did you hear that?
Chief Seo, it seems like Deputy Lee overreacted.
- But it wasn't me. - Yes.
I guess I was the only one who doubted you.
If you understand that, stop butting into our business.
- I'll take care of the sales team. - Okay.
Then the two contractors on my team are under my jurisdiction
so I'll give them orders and assess them in my own way.
That son of a...
Do you think we don't say those things because we're not smart enough?
I'm sorry. I was really upset in the heat of the moment.
If you act with your emotions, who's supposed to clean up after you?
Do you think life is that easy?
No.
That's not it--
No matter what you and Do Ki Taek say or do
you'd better get my permission first.
And don't take orders from anyone other than me.
Hauliz will launch soon.
We have to wrap up our catalogue...
so you two can do that.
But Chief Seo, they're not ready--
We should make them work so they can learn.
It sounds like you'll do anything I ask you to do.
Am I wrong?
No, I'll try it.
- Who are you to try? - Pardon?
Don't just try. Do a good job.
That's how your superiors became deputies and section chiefs. Do you understand?
Yes.
Chief Seo, I'll work hard. I won't let you down.
Geez, seriously. I guess Deputy Lee did do something about it.
- I'll get going. - Hey, Section Chief Jo.
Can I tell you something?
How do you think I got this position?
You know I have no education, money, or connections.
So how did I get this position?
Geez, when you're a deputy, you want to be a section chief, then a chief
and then you want to be a director.
I didn't have any pride, and I was willing to suck up to anyone.
That's how I got here.
Decency? Regulations? That's too elegant.
You can't get to my position that way.
That's true, but asking the contractors to--
Hey.
Why did you transfer to this department?
It was because you wanted to become a chief.
But if you want this position, I have to become a director.
That's how you'll get this desk.
I'll work harder to make that happen.
Section Chief Jo, I'm talking about you.
Why do you think you have been rejected every time you were up for a promotion?
It wasn't because you lacked ability.
If that's what we looked at, you'd already be here.
It's true. Look at Seo Woo Jin.
He hates company politics, so with his ability alone...
he managed to become a chief here, when he's only a year older than you.
- But why can't you get this position? - If you help me...
It's because you're a woman.
It's just a fact that we prefer to look for a male chief if we can.
Do you think it'll be easy to break that glass ceiling?
Wake up.
Do you see any female board members at this company?
- No. - No.
If you want to make the impossible happen...
you can't be old-fashioned.
You can't use the same method that has failed you many times.
That's why I transferred to your team.
Yeah.
I found a connection.
The owner's son.
Chairman Seo's son.
But I want to hold on to this connection for myself.
I don't want to share it with anyone.
You'd better hold onto me with a vice grip.
But if Seo Woo Jin gets ahold of this rope, what will happen to us?
Think about it carefully.
Hold on tight.
Did you call for me, Section Chief Jo?
Eun Ho Won, you understand what mistake you made today, don't you?
This happened because of lack of communication
so pretend this never happened.
Chief Park never asked you to do that
and Deputy Lee simply misunderstood, so don't talk about this again.
- Do you understand me? - Yes, Section Chief Jo.
Please keep Do Ki Taek and Jang Kang Ho quiet as well.
I understand.
And make Kang Ho cancel his credit card transaction.
Section Chief Jo wants you to cancel your credit card transaction.
I think she looked into how much you spent.
Kang Ho, you're here.
Ca... Can I mix it for you?
No, that's okay.
I'm sorry. I didn't know, so I welcomed your mother when I saw her.
It's okay.
It's my fault for not being truthful.
If you tell her you're working hard, and to wait, she'll understand.
Here.
Mister.
Me?
I'm older than you think!
What is he saying?
Can you sell us your beer?
You can buy some more after you sell us what you have.
What?
Well, we didn't eat dinner today.
So please sell it to us.
We'll pay you double what you paid.
Wait, seriously.
If you didn't eat, buy carbonated drinks. Well, beer is carbonated too.
Anyway, you shouldn't start drinking at such an early age.
If you do, you'll end up like me.
Listen to him.
This middle-aged man is making me lose my appetite.
Are you going to sell us your beer if we say you're younger?
Older brother?
What school do you go to? Who's your homeroom teacher?
I'm in a really bad mood today.
If you don't want to sell it to us, just say so. What's all the fuss?
Hey, wait. Excuse me!
- Mister! - What is it? Hey!
Run!
Stop right there! Geez, those girls!
Are you all right? That girl is at it again!
Stop drinking!
- Are you okay? - Do you know her?
I'm sorry. She's my daughter.
You raised a strong daughter.
I should eat some fruit to stay healthy.
Excuse me, I'm buying some apples.
Can I buy two?
She'll be back soon.
Chief Seo.
I'm sorry about today. I didn't think it through.
- About what you asked us to do-- - Um...
Even if we run into each other, pretend like you don't know me.
And don't tell anyone we live in the same neighborhood.
Pardon?
It's not good for you if the other employees talk about you.
Let's talk in the office.
What is he saying?
If I talk to Chief Seo in our neighborhood, what's going to happen?
[Mother]
Kang Ho.
- Oh. - What are you doing here?
Oh, I'm just...
- What brings you here? - You know Hyung Wook? He lives here.
He said he got a new job, so I'm here to see him.
Geez, he worked at a bank before, but he changed jobs again.
I see.
Why aren't you going inside?
There are some things going on at home.
I saw your mom at the office.
What?
- You met my mom? - Yeah.
But the alarm went off, so I escorted her to the lobby.
Then, did you...
tell my mom, by any chance?
About what? That you're a three-month contractor?
Yeah.
Well, I think she got the hint--
What's wrong with you? Are you crazy?
What? Do you take me seriously?
I asked you to pretend you don't know anything
if my mom ever calls the office!
Do you think I wanted to ask you to do that?
Wow, seriously. Who told you to be a contractor?
She didn't call. She came to the office herself.
She probably saw your desk in the sales department.
You bastard.
You're always failing your interviews because you're so slow-witted.
- Are you finished? - Am I wrong?
We have similar qualifications. But...
you're on the same level as Eun Ho Won and Do Ki Taek.
- Geez, how humiliating. - Damn it!
Hey!
What's it to you if I'm a contractor?
Who told you to be a contractor?
Come here. Come here. Come here. Come here.
Where's your friend?
He's at home!
Wow, seriously.
Hit me! Go ahead!
- What's that? - What?
Why are kids so good at fighting these days?
I guess it's a good skill to have so they can stay safe.
Geez, why is she so strong?
I know! I'll be quiet!
Hey. I'm just...
I have my reasons. I was just talking to myself.
Kang Ho. Wait...
What happened to your face?
Come in. Come in.
- Jae Min, that bastard. - Oh Jae Min?
- Seriously. - Oh Jae...
But I still won.
Good morning!
Good morning, everyone!
Ki Taek, make me a coffee too.
Huh? What happened to you?
Is there an eye infection going around?
Oh no. It's an eye infection.
Geez. Deputy Ha, what's for lunch today?
- I think it's seaweed soup. - I see.
What is this?
Jang Kang Ho, are you organizing the sales analysis chart?
Yes, I'm almost done.
Can I do it, Section Chief Jo?
No, he can finish it.
But, Section Chief Jo...
Shouldn't the new recruit do this task?
Yes, I agree with him.
Jang Kang Ho is a new recruit too.
He should learn the work if we want to properly assess him.
Yes.
Hey, Yong Jae! Make a reservation!
Geez, is it someone's birthday every day? Why is it seaweed soup again?
Hey, let's go eat loach soup. That's what you like.
Yes!
I wish I could kill all the leeches in this world.
Geez, why didn't they turn off the lights?
Why am I hiding?
Oh my.
This is Chief Seo's.
Chief Seo.
Chief Seo?
I was looking for something I dropped.
Oh, I see.
- What are you looking for? - It's nothing.
- Why are you smiling? - It reminds me of last time.
When I was hiding in your closet.
This is different. I wasn't hiding. I was looking for something.
I see. What were you looking for?
It's not important.
By the way, isn't this yours?
Yeah, it is.
You were coughing in your sleep.
If you catch a cold, I don't want to hear excuses about being sick and what not.
That's why I threw it over you. Give it to me.
Go home. Don't sleep at the office.
Geez, I didn't look cool at all.
I'm going home now. I'll see you tomorrow.
Yes, see you.
Geez.
[Occupant Regulations - Be Quiet]
[Kang Ho, when are you going back home?]
[I'm not sure.]
[Aren't you hungry?]
[I'm hungry.]
[Do you want to eat some ramen?]
[I like ramen.] [Do you have money?]
[It's a good idea. Let's go.]
[No, do you have money?]
[Money? You should use this gesture.]
[I have money.]
Lastly, the fabric makes this product look understated
and for the headboard, we used artificial leather.
The basic closet, the three-drawer dresser, and the small dresser
can be seen right here.
And the products are organized individually in the catalogue.
That's it.
But didn't you get a list of products from Section Chief Jo?
We did, and we talked to the design team--
- But? - But those products
received negative reviews at the show, so we left them out.
Chief Seo, we won't know the success of these products for another month.
What if we get negative feedback? Are you going to switch them out too?
Yes, we can do that.
If we don't get a good response in two weeks, we'll listen to you.
Really? But you want to try it anyway?
We won't know until we try it.
Yeah, okay. Let's try it then. Geez.
- There's no need to stay then. Let's go. - Yes.
Please do the final checks before we send this out to be printed.
And make sure the online and offline promotions hit at the same time.
Yes.
Good job.
Do Ki Taek, please send me the file after you do the final check.
Yes.
Don't relax just yet.
Yes.
The code is SFS 2330, and the price is 700,000 won.
SFS 2330, 700,000 won.
- Are we done? - Yes.
I'm so tired.
Go home. I'll finish this off.
No, let's finish it together.
It's okay. We've checked so many times already.
I'll check for the very last time.
I'll send it for printing when I'm done. You can go home.
Really?
- Then I'll get going. - Yeah, go.
Yeah. Don't forget your bag.
It's good enough. I checked 22 times.
All done.
Who's this?
Hello?
Yeah.
Where are you?
Okay.
[2017 Hauline, Hauliz Model Price List]
[File]
[Save]
You came.
Of course you came. Of course you did.
I knew you would come.
Why wouldn't you come when I call you?
If Ha Ji Na calls, there's no way Do Ki Taek won't come.
- Have you been drinking? - Yeah.
You were worried about me, weren't you?
You said you lost your wallet.
My friend took my bag with her.
That's why I borrowed a stranger's phone to make a call.
But your number...
is the only one I have memorized.
- Take a taxi. - What?
We're not in any kind of relationship. This is the last time.
Even if you call me like this next time...
I won't come.
Thank you for your hard work!
Congratulations on the successful launch of Hauliz. Please blow out the candle.
Geez, how do you know if it's successful on the first day?
Sales were going up when I checked this morning.
That's because our furniture is in demand.
Why don't you say something?
Yes, thank you, everyone. Eun Ho Won and Do Ki Taek worked hard on the catalogue.
Okay, then... Who's that? Answer it.
Yes, this is Jo Seok Kyung. Yes.
What did you say?
Yes, I'll look into it.
Deputy Lee and Deputy Ha, check the catalogue. Hurry!
- Yes. - What's going on?
I think there was an error in the catalogue prices.
Please check the prices of the furniture sets!
Hey, the catalogue? We'll be in big trouble! Check!
We're in for a big one. Hey, hurry! Who did that?
Geez, seriously.
Hello? Yes, there was an error in the prices
so that product can't be sold. Yes, I apologize. Yes.
What in the world... Yes, hello?
Yes, please convince the customers to cancel their orders. Yes, please.
Yes. Yes.
- Yes, there was a mistake. - Hello? Yes, we made a mistake...
I'm sorry. I'm not sure either.
What went wrong?
Geez, hello there.
- Yes, that's what happened. - This is marketing. We're checking.
Yes, this is marketing.
I'm sorry. Please don't sell that product.
We will make new catalogues.
Yes, I apologize. I'm so sorry.
Why can't you do anything right?
- I'm sorry. - I'm sorry.
Apologizing won't solve anything! I told you to check a million times!
What the hell's wrong with you?
I'm sorry.
Please wait a moment. Hello?
The price was reduced by 1 million won
and over 100 sets were already sold from what we see in the system.
They sold out quickly because they were cheap.
What about the online store?
It's fine. The catalogue is the only problem, so it's only an issue offline.
I called all the stores.
Then that means we have to call those 100 customers to cancel their orders.
Yes, I have the contact information of the 100 customers right here.
Okay. Then I'll let Director Han know before it's too late.
- Hello? - Yes, I understand.
Chief Seo.
What did he say?
- I didn't see him. - Everyone's here.
Chief Seo's here too.
- Then let's tell them now. - Yes.
Attention.
Um, just now...
Director Han said he wants to combine the sales and marketing teams.
- That makes no sense-- - Please listen.
I think this is because of the incident that just occurred.
And this could happen again...
so I think he wants to make it easier to manage the risks.
It seems like he's very shocked about what happened today.
But you made that decision without me?
Chief Seo.
This isn't the time for you to argue with me about that.
You can talk to Director Han yourself, after we deal with this mess.
- Section Chief Jo, come in. - Yes.
Section Chief Jo.
Can we borrow some extra hands from your team?
We have to call many customers. We need some help.
What do we do? We have to visit the stores
and we also have a buyer meeting, so this week is busy for us too.
Section Chief Jo has become one of Chief Park's people.
Hello? This is Eun Ho Won of Hauline's marketing team.
I called you earlier...
but you were busy, so...
Please don't hang up. Please listen...
Hello? This is Eun Ho Won of Hauline's marketing team.
I called you earlier about...
I'm so sorry.
We made a mistake with the prices.
I'm very sorry. I'm so sorry.
[Chief Seo Woo Jin]
I'm sorry, Chief Seo.
I'm sorry.
Ki Taek.
I checked so many times because I wanted to do a good job.
I wanted to show them that we can do a good job.
Geez, I don't know what happened.
Geez, seriously. Ki Taek.
Damn it! What the hell happened...
Hello.
Doctor Seo, hello!
- How are you? - Good. Geez, what is all this?
Where is everyone?
- Oh, we're having a crisis. - I see.
Did Ho Won go somewhere? I wanted to eat lunch with her.
- Ho Won? Her? - Yes.
The marketing team went to the stores.
I see.
Hey, Deputy Lee. Call the Gangnam store...
Oh, Doctor Seo. What brings you--
- Hello, I just stopped by. - I see.
Why don't you come to my office for some tea?
Um, sure.
I will formally introduce you two.
This is Section Chief Jo.
She's the ace of our sales team. We couldn't survive without her.
Introduce yourself.
- I'm Jo Seok Kyung from the sales team. - Yes, I'm Seo Hyun.
You can sit.
- I hope you don't come to see me. - Pardon?
I hope you don't come to the clinic.
It's not good if you need to go to a hospital.
Oh. Yes.
She's healthy.
But you got a weird vibe when you came in, didn't you?
The marketing team messed up, so they're all trying to deal with it.
That's what's going on. But I'm not sure if this is something we can fix.
Hm, really?
- Section Chief Jo! Have some donuts! - No thanks.
Geez, what's going on? These are really good though.
- Please give me a call. - No need to walk me out. I'll be going.
Yes, see you. Oh.
Hello.
I came by to visit the general affairs office. I heard you had a crisis.
Yes, something happened due to my carelessness.
I hope you solve the issue.
If I can help in any way, please let me know.
Although, I'm not sure if a family doctor can be of any help.
Yes.
So...
- I'll be going now. - Yes, see you.
[For certain products, the price is subject to change.]
Here it is.
- I'm back. - Yes.
- Are you back from a store? - Yes.
Good work.
We fixed the prices and distributed the edited version.
What is this? Why did you change it from last year's edition?
I kept it the same as last year.
This is last year's catalogue. Don't you see this?
"For certain products"
"the price is subject to change."
This is in here for cases like this. Why did you leave it out?
- Deputy Ha, I left it-- - It's right here.
Eun Ho Won didn't take it out.
But we should deal with the price issue, so please apologize to the customers.
- Yes. - Yes.
Yes, hello. This is Chief Seo of Hauline's marketing team.
I got a handwritten letter. You didn't need to call me.
What letter?
Someone left it in my mailbox when I wasn't home.
The employee who made the mistake wrote such a sincere apology
that I just ordered the same product for the original price.
I see. Thank you. Yes.
I heard you settled it well.
You finished last night, right?
Yes, we apologized to our customers, and cancelled the orders.
Many of them reordered at the original price. There won't be a big issue.
Okay. And there are no legal issues?
No.
Of course we dealt with it.
But the problem is our company's image.
No, it was good for our image.
Most of our customers are Seoul residents
and Eun Ho Won sent all of them a handwritten letter
so they were very touched.
I commend her for her effort
- but fire them. - Pardon?
We dealt with the issue, and I'm also responsible for not doing a final check.
Then do you want to be fired instead?
We have to report this incident.
Someone should take responsibility for this.
But we can't make the contractors take all the blame.
Then you can choose.
You can be fired, or you can fire them.
What happened? Did you really do it?
Didn't Eun Ho Won do the final check?
You two are so nice to each other.
Are you taking the fall for her mistake?
Ho Won did nothing wrong. It was my fault.
You should have been more thorough. What now?
If I made mistakes after checking so many times, I shouldn't be here.
Who knows what else I'll screw up?
I'm going to tell Chief Seo that Ho Won did nothing wrong.
Wait.
How many times did you check? When and how many times?
Isn't it enough that I checked more than 20 times?
Even on the night when you called me, I checked all the way through.
That night? You said you sent it out for printing the next day.
[Last Edited: 2017.04.05. Wednesday at 11:12 p.m.]
That's strange. At that time...
- Take a taxi. - He was with me.
Is this security? This is Deputy Ha of the marketing team.
Can I look into the times when the employees went home?
We're in a situation where we're understaffed.
I can't fire them without a solid reason.
Hey, what more reason do you need?
There will be countless contractors lining up to work here.
Chief Seo, this is the prime time to hire employees.
Don't you know that? No need to worry.
They have a lot of passion, and they have learned a lot so far.
I'll deal with it once we find out exactly what happened.
Stop being stubborn. Who cares about two contractors?
Um, yes.
Then I'll take responsibility for not managing my employees properly.
The customers were very touched by your sincerely written letters.
This is Deputy Ha of the marketing team.
Oh, yes.
Who?
Then, the last person to leave that night...
Yes, thank you.
Oh Jae Min.
Yes, Deputy Ha.
Did you touch the catalogue price chart file?
- I don't know what you mean. - You should just answer me.
I'm really mad right now.
You didn't know they turn on the CCTV after 9 p.m., did you? I can check.
Is it true, Oh Jae Min?
I'm sorry.
I was supposed to do that because I'm the new recruit.
But the contractors were doing it instead
so I pranked them out of anger.
- Are you out of your mind? - I didn't know it was the final draft.
I thought you'd check it again.
But you kept your mouth shut this whole time, when you knew?
Even if I had told the truth, nothing would have changed.
I thought it'd be okay as long as we dealt with it.
Geez, you tried to screw us over, huh?
These punks are doing all sorts of things now.
Who hired this punk without any basic knowledge?
I don't have any basic knowledge?
Do you think the company has any basic requirements?
- What? - You always look for the best.
But do you even have the qualifications to hire top recruits?
Why don't you hire people who are at your level?
Wait, look at this bastard. How dare you talk like that?
- Stop that. I'm not your bastard! - What?
You're always on our asses to meet our goals
and then you get out there and knock down our scores.
Wow, is this a company or a gang?
What? This bastard. Shut up, you son of a bitch!
- Chief Park. - Chief, Section Chief, and Deputy.
Do you think I studied my ass off for 16 years to kiss up to you?
Chief Park, I like eating hamburgers for lunch.
I hate loach soup!
Are you doing this because you hate loach soup?
Hey, I really don't understand these punks. How were they raised?
- We weren't like this! - What is this country coming to?
I hate hearing that too.
Are you implying that our country's in a good state right now?
Well, that's true.
But you are the one who's wrong! Why are you blaming our country?
I'll give you this and get going.
[Resignation Letter]
Don't look for top recruits.
Work on becoming a company where top recruits can work.
Hey.
Wow, seriously.
He was the one who was wrong. But why do I feel like we're at fault?
Geez.
It seems like Oh Jae Min had many complaints.
- Your sales team... - Yes?
How the hell are you managing your employees?
[Oh Jae Min] [Resignation Letter]
What does a final check mean?
You should have checked it the next morning before it was printed.
- Yes, you're right. - I'm sorry.
I'm sure you learned a lot from this.
Trivial words and the small details in numbers.
I'm sure you learned how such things can make a huge impact on the company.
- Yes, I'll be more careful. - I'll pay more attention.
And, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry for blaming you before I knew the truth.
You don't need to...
We should have done better.
- Yes, that's right. - Pardon?
I want an apology letter from both of you.
You're still responsible for sending it to print without doing a final check.
- Yes. - You can go.
- Do you know how to write one? - I don't know.
I heard contractors are usually fired before they write apology letters.
- Me too. - We're contractors who write apologies.
I've never been so happy about being asked to write an apology.
Doesn't it feel like we've been acknowledged by Chief Seo?
I almost cried when he apologized to us.
Did we really get acknowledged?
Thank you.
Okay...
There.
- That's the last of it. - I'm almost done too.
Hey, it looked like a haunted house when we first got this place.
But it doesn't look too bad now that we've cleaned it up.
- Kang Ho, this is new to you, isn't it? - Yes.
Hey, it'll feel more comfortable over time.
Hey, I like this location. It didn't even take an hour to move.
But do you think...
there are cockroaches in this house?
It's okay. If you see one, call me. I'll catch them for you.
Yeah, let's get some fresh air, and get some food.
- Here. - Yes.
- Enjoy. - Thank you.
Okay, let's eat.
- It's nice that it's buffet-style. - That's why we're here. Eat.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
It's good.
Thank you.
Wow, this is good.
- What is this? - You've never had one before?
- What? - That scared me.
Geez, seriously.
That's no way to welcome us to the neighborhood.
Geez, I only have good aim at times like this.
- I'm sorry! - I'm sorry!
- What the heck? - I'm...
Chief...
- Hello. - What are you doing here?
I'm sorry.
- You threw that, right? - I'm sorry.
Who threw that?
We did...
Where are you headed?
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Thank you. As neighbors, would you like to have some tea?
We're not neighbors. No, thanks.
Don't tell anyone that we live in the same neighborhood.
But Chief Seo, you told me not to acknowledge you last time.
- Yeah, but you're not listening. - Oh.
Well, you can do whatever you want.
- But just keep it a secret. - Yes.
Why are we neighbors with Chief Seo of all people?
What does he want from me?
Yes?
Father, what brings you here?
I'll clean up so we can have dinner together.
I'm not in the mood to enjoy a dinner.
Pardon?
Then, why are you here?
Did you plant someone in my company to provide you information?
Did you come here because of that?
What is it that you want to know?
Did they want to help because you're the chairman's son?
Well, it was pretty easy, yes.
You told me to prove it.
You told me to prove who has the right to inherit the company.
If I want to do that, I need information.
I need to learn about the company that you cherish so much.
Why don't you ever just ask me for what you want?
Then should I be direct?
Please give me...
Hauline.
Stop comparing me to my older brother.
You shouldn't have called me here
to plan how my older brother will inherit your company.
I told you to prove that you are qualified. Not to throw a tantrum.
I'll claim my share by myself.
If this is how you expect to claim your share, you're got another thing coming.
I asked to see your qualifications
and not your ability to manipulate people by using my name.
But everyone in your company is on your side.
If I want to know anything, I need my own people.
I'm sure your people are all on my older brother's side.
You've proven to me that you have no right to inherit my company.
I don't think you considered me in the first place.
Maybe not.
You're a very jealous person who doesn't like to share.
I never liked that about you.
You're just like your mother.
"Did you have some seaweed soup?"
Shouldn't you have asked me that?
It's my birthday, but your present...
was quite spectacular.
- Cheers. - Cheers.
I bought long johns for my parents with my paycheck.
I felt so good.
Even through all the hardships and stress at work...
I can finally understand why Ji Na goes to work every day.
- Ji Na? - I think you're drunk.
- I'll get going. Put him to sleep. - Sure.
I'm not drunk, you punk. Hey...
Let's have some more.
You're drunk.
Are you all right?
Does your mom know that you moved here?
Yeah, she knows. But she doesn't want to see me.
It was about time I moved out.
I thought people like you wouldn't have any worries.
Everyone has worries.
I'll get going.
Ki Taek, stop drinking already.
Geez, seriously. You're not even good at drinking.
We're being irresponsible. Let's drag Ho Won to the hospital.
My heart aches whenever I think about her.
Kang Ho, we shouldn't do this.
We should respect her decision. She says she needs time.
What kind of bullshit is that?
I have to call her right now. I'll tell her to stop this.
Geez, I told you Ho Won forget her cell phone at the office.
You shouldn't do this. What's more important than living?
Let's go to the hospital, Ho Won. I'll give you my whole my paycheck.
We should know what disease you have and how much time you have left!
[Ki Taek]
Miracles can happen.
Not everyone dies from a fatal illness!

You answered the phone, didn't you? You know Ho Won is sick, right?
- She's starting to feel pain. - I made an appointment. Let's go.
- Thank you for ke ng it a secret. - I smell something fishy. Look into it.
That's intense. I can't believe she tricked us like this.
This is work-related. Don't get your personal feelings involved.
If this doesn't work, it could hurt you.
It feels like I've been dreaming.
I have to wake up now.
