Director.
(Episode 16)
Director.
What brings you here?
I said go throw it out.
I'm doing it now.
Are you here to meet J?
Then come in.
No.
You came all the way here. Come on in.
What are you doing? Show him the way.
- Long time no see. - Yes.
I know.
You look good.
I had a lot to say.
Now that I met you, I don't know what to say first.
Min Hyuk. Why won't you look at me?
What?
It's been too long. It's awkward.
I heard you're doing well at work.
Are you all right? How are you doing?
Yes.
I'm doing well.
I thought about you from time to time.
I wanted to know how you were doing.
I...
thought about you a lot too.
By the way,
did you decide to step out to the world?
He's a higher up at work?
I guess Bigfoot is talented.
Someone in high position is visiting him at home.
Yes. So stop being so hard on him.
Is he going to stay for dinner?
I'm not sure. Should I ask?
Why is there no hot water? I need to take a shower.
I guess the furnace is broken again. Let me see.
Did they even try to fix the furnace?
It's cold. Hurry up.
- Goodness. Go. - Let's go.
You're leaving already? Why don't you stay for dinner?
No thank you. Bye.
What?
Jae Hyuk's at the designer's assistant's house?
That's where he went?
- I'm surprised too. - How did you find out?
I looked into it.
Why?
How did he look?
He actually looked relaxed.
He seemed different from the time he was in the warehouse.
What is he thinking?
What else?
He's never greedy.
You know nothing. He's wicked.
Who is it?
An employee.
(Hwang Yeon Su)
Are you seeing her again?
- No. - No?
Then why is she calling you after work?
I'm tired. Leave me alone.
What brings you here, ma'am?
Take this first.
Thank you.
How did you know where I live?
Shouldn't you tell me to sit down first?
This way, please.
I looked up the employee's profile for your address.
I didn't let you know in case you feel burdened.
I thought I should visit you at home since we have history.
Yes. Do you want some tea?
No thanks.
Let me ask you something.
The employee who showed up on Jae Hyuk's blind date...
and humiliated the daughter of Jeil Steel.
Was that you?
Yes. That was me.
Why did you do that?
When I found out he was going on a blind date,
I looked into it just in case.
Jeil Steel actually has a lot of problems.
They have a lot of debt, and they're capital impaired...
due to export matters.
I wanted to stop Director Han from marrying the wrong person.
You know that was presumptuous?
Yes. I'm sorry.
Is that all?
Of course. What else could it be?
If...
you have any feelings for Min Hyuk,
you better give up fast.
Just assist Min Hyuk.
That's your job.
I'll compensate you more than enough.
But if you eye on anything else,
I won't stay calm.
You understand, right?
Yes.
Five years ago,
Chairman of Noyu Group and his wife visited Restaurant Ruby?
Yes.
That day, she was trying to go to Restaurant Ruby,
and she got on Noyu's vehicle after she got off the taxi.
She and Noyu.
There must be something.
I must meet Kim Cheol Jin, the owner of the junkyard...
to find a clue.
I called the immigration's office.
It's true he's out of country.
Once he enters, we must go find him.
Yes.
It's better than I thought.
KK Distribution ordered us...
to make all vests with Velcro.
No way.
They don't care about the ruined design?
They said the patches...
made it look even more stylish.
Anyway, it was a hard process, but it's a success in the end.
Well done, So Won.
I'm sorry.
If you're sorry, don't repeat the same mistake again.
- Yes. - Well done, So Won.
I know. It's amazing.
No. It's all thanks to you.
You should take us out.
Yes, it's on me.
Tell me anything you want.
Then let's go for lunch.
I have a plan. You guys go.
- Bye. - Let's get going.
- How about spicy octopus with rice? - I'm good with anything.
- Let's go. - I know a place that is good.
Let's go.
I want something spicy.
I need to delete the email.
(Sent)
(Order form from Noyu Fashion Design Department)
I forgot my wallet.
What are you doing?
What are you doing on my laptop?
(Order form from Noyu Fashion Design Department)
Why were you reading my email?
Actually...
It was you who changed my email.
What are you talking about?
Why else were you reading my email?
Don't be absurd.
I was just using yours because my laptop doesn't work.
I had to check my email,
but yours opened because you were logged in.
Why can't you just leave me alone?
You never admit it.
Do you hate me that much?
Are you that desperate to kick me out?
That you're even doing this?
- Is that it? - Stop it.
How could you do this as a chief designer?
Aren't you ashamed of yourself?
This is ridiculous.
Who do you think you are?
Why would I go through all this because of you?
Are you framing me now?
Are you so full of yourself now that the manager complimented you?
- Hey. Hwang Yeon Su. - Stop it.
I don't want to deal with you.
(Order form from Noyu Fashion Design Department)
Is it a big day or something? Why did you cook so much?
I wanted you to have something nice. Eat up.
It must've been hard for the maid.
Goodness. I helped too.
It's tteok galbi, your favorite.
Anyway, thank you.
Do you have fried napa cabbage?
What about spring onion kimchi?
There's no vegetable. It's all meat.
Since when did you like vegetables?
That's what my homestay gives me.
I guess my taste changed.
You're homestaying?
You're not staying at the hotel?
Why would I?
They're friendly, generous.
Their warm floor is the best.
- By the way... - By the way,
where is Jae Hyuk?
He's not at work. He's not home.
Does he even come home?
Ask your brother.
Is it a top secret or something?
Why won't anyone tell me?
Do you want some tea?
No thank you. I'll go check out the upstairs.
Is this Jae Hyuk's room?
Why is this man here? That's J.
Then...
Is J Jae Hyuk?
(Chairman Han Tae Seok)
Yes.
Oh, yes. Did you enjoy the food?
Tae Seok. What happened to Jae Hyuk?
What do you mean?
I saw his picture.
I know J is Jae Hyuk.
Last time I saw him, he was too young.
I couldn't even imagine.
Tae Seok.
What happened to Jae Hyuk?
Seriously?
My goodness. Poor Jae Hyuk.
Yes. You should take care of him.
Tae Seok. I live with Jae Hyuk.
The part-timer So Won's house.
That's where I'm staying.
You're...
staying at her house?
Yes.
Goodness.
You knew Jae Hyuk's at her house, right?
Yes. Jae Hyuk seemed to change at her house,
so I was just watching.
I'm relieved to hear that you live there too.
Now I see you smiling.
Don't worry. I'll take care of Jae Hyuk.
Yes. Thank you.
Buy me some drinks like the old days if you're thankful.
All right. Let's go out for drinks soon.
Did you have lunch?
Manager Han. I have something to say.
What is it?
Here. This is the email I sent.
This is done properly.
Yes, that's the one I sent,
but someone canceled it and sent a different email.
So...
someone deleted my email and sent a different one.
Who would do that?
Well...
I don't know yet.
I guess you were right about being innocent.
You must've gone through a lot.
But who would do that?
We have someone this unconscionable in our team?
I can't believe it.
Or...
did you make an enemy?
No.
Tell everyone to gather.
I'm going to find out who did it and make them pay.
If it's not from our team,
I'm going to search through all employees.
Please don't.
Why not?
I don't want to make a fuss in the team.
It's my fault for not being careful.
Please let it go just this once.
- Are you sure about that? - Yes.
Yeon Su.
Yes?
Do you have any idea?
Did you notice anything suspicious?
No.
You should secure your computer too.
To prevent the same mistake from happening again.
Yes, ma'am.
Fine.
Since you want it, I'll let it go this once.
If this ever happens again, I won't let it go.
Seriously, who would do that?
I'm not covering it up because I trust you.
Why don't you stop it?
For the sample incident and this one,
I still suspect you.
But I'm only letting it go because I know...
you put so much effort to get this far.
I'm letting it go...
because we were once family. Get it?
You want me to go down on my knees to thank you?
You better watch out from now on.
If this ever happens again,
I wouldn't let it slip away.
Slip away?
Don't be mistaken. I'm letting you slip away.
But I can't let you slip away anymore.
Compensation?
Yes, she pulled off a major project.
She's not even a full-time employee. She's only a part-timer.
It means more because a part-timer did it.
She's the cause of the whole incident.
Is that really necessary?
She sowed what she reaped.
It's not that easy...
to solve the problems you caused.
She must've been very anxious.
Okay.
But Father.
I met Jae Hyuk yesterday.
You knew he lives in So Won's house, didn't you?
Yes.
But why didn't you say anything?
That's better than the warehouse.
Min Hyuk. I believe...
he'll come home on his own.
I believe he'll go back to where he belongs.
My hands are burning.
What are you doing?
She told me to pay the rent by peeling garlic.
What?
Don't you have money? What about credit card?
It's not my pay day yet.
And my credit card is suspended.
My nephew is having a hard time.
What?
Never mind. I thought I should help you.
No, it's fine. Your hands will burn.
Tae Seok. You should let Jae Hyuk use his credit card.
Leave it, so he'd come home.
Seriously.
Fine.
Take this.
No, I don't deserve it.
I'll accept the vacation.
But I can't accept the bonus.
So Won.
I already feel terrible...
for giving a lot of people a hard time.
I didn't do anything to deserve a compliment.
I don't deserve it.
I'm never going to take it.
It's the chairman's order.
Pardon? It's the chairman's order?
Yes, he ordered it himself.
Then how about this?
Can you give scholarship...
to KK Distribution part-timers under Noyu's name?
They're the ones who saved me.
I'd really appreciate it if you could do that.
Hello?
Pardon?
Really?
Can we meet now?
So you saw Choi Eun Hye that day?
Yes.
I used to work as a taxi driver for a while.
I heard what my fellow driver said,
and I thought I could be of help.
Then where did you see her?
Near Restaurant Ruby.
I went there that day.
Then did you see...
which car Choi Eun Hye got in?
Well...
So you got nothing from him.
Yes. He didn't see her getting in a different car.
Why did he call when he saw nothing?
It's discouraging.
Still, it was nice of him. He tried to help.
Oh, right. Ho Jin.
I got a vacation as a reward for pulling that incident off well.
Really? Then why don't you take this chance to rest?
You've had a hard time.
Why is it so much?
Is it a tip?
What tip?
I'm also paying for J.
What?
Why are you paying for Bigfoot's rent?
Because J...
is in my design team.
Still, why would you pay for his rent?
He's very important in my company.
You make him peel garlic. You're so hard on him.
Even the kid drags him around as if they're friends.
I felt bad for him.
Don't make it sound like he's my slave.
If you make J work again,
both of us are leaving.
So make sure he eats well...
and make him something healthy.
Why are you looking at me like that?
What? Nothing.
Do we have hot water now?
Yes. It's so hot that you'll burn yourself.
Mom.
I'm on a vacation from tomorrow.
The chairman gave me a day off for pulling the incident off well.
Really? That's nice.
It was worth the effort.
By the way, So Won.
- What? - Goodness.
How ridiculous.
I mean Cake.
I think she likes Bigfoot.
What?
She paid for Bigfoot's rent.
She told me not to make him work...
and make sure he eats well.
- Really? - Yes.
So I asked her why she'd pay for his rent.
She was like, "That's because I..." Then she changed the subject.
That means she likes him.
Is Ha Eun sleeping already?
Yes, I guess she had fun in the daycare. She must've been tired.
Why are we having fried chicken and beer?
It's on me for getting a vacation as a reward.
It's all thanks to you. Eat up.
Raise your glasses.
For our beautiful days!
- Cheers. - Cheers.
It's beautiful.
That reminds me, you two look alike.
You become alike when you're in love.
Pardon me?
Ms. Song.
- Mom. - What do you mean, Mom?
I'm just saying, they look good together.
What are you talking about?
Who's in love?
Then why did you pay for Bigfoot's rent?
- What? My rent? - Didn't you know?
Take this.
I should give it back to you since I received the rent.
Why would you pay for my rent?
Because I felt pity. She was so hard on you.
I'm only lending it. Pay me back later.
You're right, Mom. They look great together.
- Right? - What are you talking about?
She's totally wrong.
- It's not J I love... - Don't be coy.
It's all right.
It's okay to be in love. You're both singles.
Cake and J. Even your names match perfectly.
Yeon Su.
What are you doing here?
I called her.
- I heard you're like a family. - Says who?
- Mom. - Did you bring it?
Yes.
I left this in the office.
Thank you. Join us.
No, I need to get going. I have a plan.
Bye.
Gosh.
Scholarship?
So Won said that?
- Yes. - She's very thoughtful.
What do you mean? She caused it.
Who would tell us to...
give out their bonus as a scholarship?
Sure. Go ahead and do that.
Okay.
Hey.
Are you really...
Like what my mom said, are you and Kate...
Why do I want to know?
Never mind.
Hey.
I didn't get fired and received a vacation as a reward...
all thanks to you.
If you didn't stay up all night to make it,
they would've fired me right away.
Thank you very much once again.
As long as you know.
Actually...
Don't tell Ha Eun about this.
I wasn't exactly thinking about becoming a designer...
before I joined the company.
But...
the more I do it, the better I want to do. I want to be acknowledged.
I want to be a real designer.
But I shouldn't.
I shouldn't dream of it.
Why not?
It costs you nothing. It doesn't bother anyone.
Keep dreaming.
You're supposed to dream. Not break it.
You said you have something to say.
Say it.
I want to ask you something.
Five years ago,
why did you leave me without saying anything?
As long as I remember,
we were very close.
We were more than just friends.
I liked you,
and you let me in too.
But...
how did you not call me for once?
Do you...
remember that?
Of course.
I just don't remember anything after that.
Ho Jin. That happened a long time ago.
It's been a long time.
I don't want things to get complicated.
- Yeon Su. - Yes.
I'm just a friend.
We were like a family.
I hope we stay that way.
Yes, Bong Sun.
Scissors of Ssanggun-dong. How have you been?
Watch your mouth.
Stop calling me that name. You're old enough to know that.
Come on. Are you coming to the school reunion?
I never go to school reunion.
What about her? Is she coming?
You know, Hammer of Bulchon-dong.
She hasn't come for a while?
Whatever. Bye.
They're unbelievable.
Mom. Was your nickname...
Scissors of Ssanggun-dong when you were a student?
There's a reason for that.
I was the breadwinner in the family.
I had to be strong to protect your aunt and uncles.
Then who is Hammer of Bulchon-dong?
There was a girl.
Her father was a construction manager. She had a temper.
When things went wrong, she used to threaten kids...
with her father's hammer.
That's intense.
We lived together for years.
Then she took off with my money.
Since then, no one heard of her. What a witch.
I see.
Right. I'm going to wash blankets, but I can't find the detergent.
It's under the shelf in the storage.
I'm going grocery shopping. I'm taking Ha Eun with me.
- Have a safe trip. - Okay.
J.
Can you come here for a second?
Pull it upon count.
In 1, 2, 3.
Okay. One more time. 1, 2, 3.
Now, hang it.
Step back.
Pull it upon count.
In 1, 2, 3.
Don't you remember?
We hung the fabric we dyed.
What are you talking about?
Do you not remember or pretend not to remember?
I said it wasn't me.
Why do you keep denying it?
I said no already. When are you going to stop?
Because I know it was you,
but you keep saying no.
Why are you saying no? Why?
No. It wasn't me!
I don't want to recall the past memory.
