(Episode 1)
You, over there.
Yes?
What do you think you're doing?
Is something wrong?
I told you many times before the interview.
(No camera-flash)
Can't you see this?
Do you really not see it? Don't you see it?
Gosh, what's wrong with this camera?
Leave.
You're being kicked out.
Leave this room within 2.5 seconds.
An American cartoonist...
invented the Rube Goldberg machine...
in order to make people laugh.
It's a machine...
designed to perform simple tasks...
in an overly complicated manner.
Our lives are similar.
Perhaps...
we live our lives to reach a simple goal to die.
Maybe it's a sad comedy...
that's been intentionally tangled up.
For many years,
my husband and I...
complicated and ruined each other's lives.
(Petition for Divorce)
We'll reach a humorous yet simple result.
(Min Jae Hee)
Fashion isn't a tool to satisfy lookism.
It's unfortunate that fashion...
is being misused as a medium...
to show off one's wealth.
Fashion is a form of art with the longest history.
It's a way for one to express their identity.
It's advanced and philosophical work...
and a metaphor for life.
That's why the concept for today's show...
is death...
and birth.
There are many kinds of deaths.
For example, natural death,
suicide, accidental death,
and also capital punishment.
What kind of death were you inspired by?
You're ignorant about the creative process.
What a childish question to ask.
After being asked such a question,
I have a feeling...
I'll be inspired by murder today.
Death by murder is the most dramatic...
and creative way to face death.
What?
What is this?
Hey.
(Petition for Divorce)
(We...)
A final surprise party after a long research.
Although life was degrading and battered,
I wanted my death to be a fancy celebration.
How is that a celebration?
Auntie, I'm begging you. Get it together.
I know you hate your husband,
but murder is wrong.
I want to do a good deed before leaving this world.
The mere existence of trash like Kim Tae Joon...
is destructive to the environment.
Young and pretty things like you...
can't understand the pain of a loser like me.
Still,
you were the only person in this world...
who'd eat with me without complaint.
While fangirling you,
my wretched life wasn't tragic.
Please think of your fans,
and stay away from drugs, gambling, driving drunk,
and writing stupid things on social media.
Please keep your head on straight, okay?
Walk only on flowery paths,
my dear Min Suk.
Please look this way. To the right.
- Please look this way. - Over here.
- Hello. - Hello.
- Hello. - Please look this way.
- Please look this way. - Please look this way.
Over here.
- This way. - Please look this way.
- Please look this way. - This way.
This way please.
There was a time...
when I was like that too.
Youth, future, and dream.
I had those things too.
I was as light as air.
There was a time when I sparkled with dignity.
I had that too.
Goodbye,
desires that are no longer mine. Goodbye.
Suicide is the most philosophical death.
But isn't death too dark of a theme for fashion?
Death in itself has no meaning or worth.
It's just protein being decomposed.
However, extinction is why a new birth awaits.
Entropy.
Outer space is comprised of chaos and extinction.
Death and extinction...
bring outer space another birth...
and potential.
For example,
thanks to the extinction of a useless life being,
outer space receives the energy therefrom,
and thus, the potential of the birth...
of a creative genius like myself...
is created.
What did you say? What gibberish...
Montague left us these words.
One who learns death shall forget the pain.
The realization of death shall free us...
from all of our shackles.
Where am I?
Did I die already?
How may I help you?
You're home after all.
- You have a package... - I don't need it anymore.
You keep it.
She doesn't need it anymore?
Kim Tae Joon and Min Jae Hee's...
beautiful parting.
Now that it's ending,
- No need to make it nice. - I reflect on...
our 17 years together.
I don't want to tarnish our beautiful memories.
Let's part ways beautifully.
That's good enough.
My husband will be home soon...
to drag me to Family Court.
I don't have much time.
We must both die today.
Who is it?
Look here.
I never ordered this.
You're Min Jae Hee, right?
Yes, I am Min Jae Hee, but...
Look at this.
There's no sender.
Who sent this?
There is no life...
that is without difficulties.
Regardless, those who are meant to meet...
shall meet eventually.
That brings meaning to our lives.
I'm a bit busy right now.
I'm in no position...
to listen to your philosophy on life.
If you're done, please be on your way.
Do not lose your courage.
Hang in there and be healthy...
until your time on this earth is done.
As long as you're alive, miracles may...
come to you. That is life.
Sure.
(To Min Jae Hee)
(I'll come to see you today.)
What stupid idiocy is this now?
Is this really for me?
Maybe that Buddha man...
got lost and delivered it to the wrong place.
Who...
are you?
You're...
Min Jae Hee.
You're none other...
than me?
It's me!
Stop.
Stop!
I told you, the star of a fashion show...
is the clothing, not the models.
Is this a concert hall?
Bring that light down.
Bring me the storyboard.
Bring it to me!
How scary.
You...
Who are you?
I'm sorry?
I'm a part-time worker.
Go away.
- Go where? - Get out of my sight...
- in 3 seconds. 1, - What's the matter?
- Did I make a mistake? - 2, 3.
Get him out of here!
Let me go.
At least tell me the reason.
Why are you treating me like this?
It's not a dream.
It's been a while since I saw the top of my feet.
I never thought I'd see you guys again.
The moment I gave up on my life,
a miracle happened.
Why? How?
How did this happen?
Are you ready?
I'll be there in 10 minutes.
I need to stay hiding for a while.
I need to figure out why this all happened.
Jin Kyung, I'm borrowing a few of your clothes.
Something came up,
so I won't be home for a while.
Mole. Is the mole guy gone?
He's gone.
Even people with pimples were sent away,
so you can rest assured now.
We made sure to tell the hiring company,
but they didn't think too much about it.
I agree it's hard to believe.
Who in their right minds would be scared...
of moles?
Why are you talking like that?
I'm not scared of moles. It's trypophobia.
Do I have to repeat myself again?
I looked it up on the Internet,
and there's no such thing as a trypophobia.
Forget it.
Why am I even bothering with such dull people?
Did you find their replacements?
You should try it on.
Someone like you...
matches our brand's standard of beauty...
perfectly.
Our designer...
has a philosophy that pigs...
can't look good in anything.
- What did you say? - I'm sorry?
Did you say, "pigs"?
Are you comparing women to animals?
This is just a piece of cloth.
Why are you making such comparisons?
You shouldn't rank people...
according to appearances.
People came before clothes,
- all right? - Put this down first.
Are you serious?
Hey. Hey!
What are you going to do about this?
Well...
Do you know how much this costs?
I'll go with the 12-month installment plan.
This card is reported missing.
It says this card was reported missing,
ma'am.
That's impossible.
Where are you right now?
You're wrong if you think you can avoid me.
I had your credit card suspended,
so come back home while I'm being nice.
What a jerk.
I should've killed him today.
So, what will you do about this dress?
I'll buy it.
I'll come back within a week,
so please get it mended. Bye.
Wait.
How can I trust you?
Then, what do you want me to do?
Should I leave my ID with you?
Right.
(Min Jae Hee)
Who...
is she?
Well...
It's my mom's.
You can report her to the police...
if I don't come back for the dress.
Will that do?
Everyone! This is no time to be standing here!
Hey.
They need more hands at the show.
Just one of us will stay at the store.
Everyone else must head to the fashion show.
Move, move!
It means, hurry up and move.
Excuse me, miss.
- Ma'am? - Yes?
Gosh.
Did I do something wrong again?
Please be careful...
not to expose your mole.
Okay.
I'm sorry?
Did I pass?
Really?
Are you sure about using me?
You must be mistaken,
but the job is only for the day.
It doesn't matter. I passed the interview.
It's my first time ever.
This valuable experience will...
give me the courage to live my life.
You're my savior.
It is pretty tough to get a job, isn't it?
Especially for women who stopped working.
I wanted to become independent...
- and sent out resumes... - Ji Na.
- Hello. - How have you been?
- We've been well. - We've been well.
You got prettier after being Miss Korea.
You're always pretty.
We're going to look around.
- Thanks. Enjoy. - Thank you.
- Thank you. - Bye.
Oh no!
What's wrong? What is it?
There was a nail sticking out on this chair.
Take it off.
- What? - Take it off now!
You really are a genius.
This is much prettier than the long dress.
Oh no!
Hey!
Who are you?
I'm sorry.
