We're sitting here by the window at a brunch cafe.
One may think we're talking about national political affairs or the international news...
But we are sitting here talking trash about one of our old classmates.
Except for Do Jin.
What? What is it?
-The contract with President Song? -No way.
After you showed off your body to her?
Then what?
I'm just thinking. We're already 40.
Already at that age when we don't even realize when someone secretly likes us.
Somebody likes you? Who is it?
-Is she pretty? -How old is she?
-Pretty? -Is she pretty?
Confucius once said, "At the age 40..."
"I had no delusions."
That's the age...
Ohhh...
Confucius was wrong. We are still men and male animals.
Gentleman's Dignity ----
Episode 2
Let's eat. I'm hungry.
Do we have anything in the refrigerator?
-Let's just order something. -Let's go out and buy something.
Why do you look so depressed? Is something wrong?
Do you know that co-director that works with Tae San?
Kim Do Jin? How do you know him?
I met him at the baseball game.
What's he like?
As you know, he's handsome, talented, and has lots of girls.
He's pretty much perfect, so he's very arrogant.
He's not just cool, he's very cold.
I want sushi. You're gonna pick it up, right?
Like you ever went?
What do I do?
Negotiate first? Explain first?
Sushi first.
Let's not be taking naps here.
Ok. Our lesson today...
Negotiation.
"Negotiation"
Negotiation first.
Come to the main entrance in 10 minutes.
Of course all four of you have to come!
We want to make a sincere apology.
-Sorry. -Sorry.
It's been such a long time ago, I barely remember what happened.
You want to apologize now?
I know it's late, but please accept their apology.
-Sorry. -Sorry.
You want me to believe that these guys are sincere?
They're repenting.
Please settle the case for us.
You must be a great teacher.
I thought you were in over your head with your own personal problems.
I hope you're not warning me to butt out of your business.
What the hell? He's really something.
You better apologize.
Why the hell did you fight?!
Are you looking for something?
A picky man.
From our store, I am the most picky man.
What?
I'm looking for coffee that a picky man would like.
I'm sure I can be of help.
I know someone like that. Selfish and cold.
Yes, a man just like that.
What kind of coffee does that man like?
Americano with 3 extra shots.
He's a dark man.
You like Tae San, right?
It's one-sided, right?
You love your friend's boyfriend.
I got my answer. You can go.
That expression tells me everything.
But...
What am I gonna do?
Oh, that scared me.
I didn't know what you would like.
I'm not someone you can figure out that easily.
I got an Americano with extra shots.
Two here. Three here.
Do you have a minute? It's not about negotiating.
What?
You want me to wait again?
Again?
How much longer?
You better not get the heck out like last time...
Wrong choice of words, right?
You really don't know me. You really don't remember meeting me before?
I'm really sorry.
I really want to remember.
Let's talk next time. I had pre-arranged plans.
Wait!
How do you all of sudden have pre-arranged plans?
I...
Do you even know what pre-arranged means?
I've never heard of such a pre-arranged plan.
Will you call me?
I'll wait for your call.
Let's first negotiate. Then we can talk about the rest...
I'm a teacher, you're ...
I'll let it go this time. He knows what my butt did last spring.
This is where you were coming?
Guess who?
Next time, I hope your pre-arranged meeting will be with me. I'll wait for your call.
I'm back.
Why do you sound like you're dying?
-Are you going to a party? -No.
I'm meeting Tae San. We have something to fight about.
You're all dressed up just to go fight?
I can't look pretty when I'm fighting?
When you go to a ball game, you go out naked?
You go out dressed ready.
This is my ready attire.
Oh...
I guess I lost because of my attire...
I can't believe that guy is that man.
No way.
Is there something else between him and I?
I'm letting you know that this message was pre-written.
By the time you get this message, I'll be...
flying over Japan.
Flying over Japan?
I'll soon be at Incheon Airport!
Sorry, I haven't seen this one.
What are they saying? Why are they laying there together?
Oh, thank you.
Why is your dream always filled with so much roughness?
Because you're always in my dreams.
Even in your dreams, we're not happy together?
I still want you to come.
Tomorrow. The day after tomorrow.
So good. This writer is so good.
Can I see it again?
Wow, this lunch looks great!
Even if we eat one meal, it should be a dignified meal.
So please careful not to mix in any cigarette butts while you're paving.
The foundation is the most important.
That's not a small matter. That's defective construction.
-Director! Someone's looking for you. -Who is it?
She's really pretty. She looks like Miss Korea.
Who is she?
What're you doing? You're not going to meet her?
I'm getting ready. She's not someone I can meet unprepared.
Ready for battle.
Go forth!
Keep your distance. Talk from there.
Didn't you miss me?
I'm working. Keep it short.
I'm here either to continue our fight or to make peace.
Which one do you think it is?
Maybe to tell me you want to break up.
If your pride was hurt, you can break up with me first.
-You don't want to make up? -No. I didn't do anything wrong.
If you want to get an apology, you're wasting your time.
Really? Fine.
There are men lined up with diamonds, luxury cars, and condo keys just to have me.
So don't worry about me, and just live well.
Bye.
Oh, cold..
Who's that bastard? Is it three different guys?
Or is it one guy who's offering all three things?
Well...
Ms. Seo!
I missed you so much.
How've you been?
Wow, you lost so much weight! You really do look like a goddess.
Right? I'm hot, right?
They're all dead!
Let's go!
It's 9,000 won.
You're not going home? Why?
I wasn't supposed to come back for another month.
-Then where will you stay? -Your house.
I just need to stay a few nights. I'll talk to Se Ra.
Tae San will be disappointed. He hasn't seen his sister in over 2 years.
Always sticking up for him...
It's not been 2 years. He was in New York with Se Ra.
-He went with Se Ra? -Yes.
It must've been last summer.
You can't let Yoon know that I'm here.
I ate a lot for a few days and gained 2 kg.
I'm not gonna meet him until I lose that weight.
Why are you doing that at my house? You can do it at yours.
What if Yoon comes over?
I don't think Se Ra will let you stay over.
Let me stay here for a few nights without my brother finding out.
-I don't want to. -Why?
Why are you so demanding? And...
You don't even like me.
I dislike you, but I don't dislike your house.
Are you listening to what she's saying?
I always taught her to express her feelings and thoughts boldly.
So, you'll let me stay.
And you better not pester my teacher.
-What if I do? -I'll let my brother know.
How can she be so different from her brother?
She's really sweet on the inside. Be good to her.
You may become family.
One family? We'll have to see about that.
You'll see it only if everyone's willing.
Don't be mad at Me Ah Ri.
-Is that Tae San? -I'm glad.
-Who is it? -It's Kim Do Jin.
Kim Do Jin? Is he here to see you?
Maybe... Don't open it.
I'll do it.
I'm going to take a shower. Get him out before I'm done.
He'll leave soon.
How many guests do we have today?
Stay here.
It's Tae San's friend.
Se Ra already told?
No, even if she did, they can't come this quickly.
Did you see the memo?
You should've just called. I would've gone out.
You took my pen.
Pen?
-Which... -My pen.
It looks like a mechanical pencil. It was on my desk.
Why would I take that?
You wrote your memo with that. You were the last one to use it.
-I don't know what kind of a great pen it is... -It's very important to me.
Why are you getting so mad?
Are you suspecting me?
You are...
Fine. I'll take everything out.
This is the bag I carried. Right?
I didn't even touch it after getting home.
Here. Look.
What is that doing here?
I didn't take it on purpose. Really.
I'm sure this was on purpose.
Why did you make me wait? You xxxx!
That...
Isn't Korean great? All these different ways to express the same thing.
Fine.
I'll explain.
Please wait outside. I'll be right there.
You look like xxxx.
Why's he here?
How can this happen? How can this happen at once?
He's here with someone else?
Yes, he brought misfortune. He brought misery.
I shouldn't have known him.
I should never have met that guy.
I'll take care of that guy. Right now...
Where did he go?
Kim Do Jin.
Director Kim.
Hello? I'm here.
Where are you?
In the car.
Car?
I don't see you or the car.
Of course not, we're both going home.
Then what about the negotiation? Weren't you here because of that?
That's why I went, but I changed my mind.
Why? Because you waited a few minutes for me?
-At the office, I waited... -The curses on the post-its, pen theft...
There's so many reasons.
I'm trying to think of your punishment. I believe in poetic justice.
Hello? Hello?
See?
I'm even more miserable than before.
Miserable.... I'm so miserable.
What did Do Jin say?
He talked about poetic justice...
Why? What is it about?
How can he say it was theft? Theft!
I'm miserable.
Ms. Seo... What do I do?
Why? What happened?
-What're you doing? -I'm with my friends. What's going on?
I'm just curious how you're doing.
Everything worked out with Do Jin?
You, what did you do with my phone?
"What're you doing? Ho, ho, ho?"
You wanna die?
Why? What happened?
I wanted to know what Yoon was up to.
I can't take it. Let's just kick her out.
If that's what you want.
You're worse than Se Ra.
Stop talking back. Look down.
What is that you have to work out with Do Jin?
It's not that easy to iron everything out. But we are in the process of working it out.
Thank you for asking.
Are you dating? Just call her.
You're being so girly... Texting on the phone...
-You still didn't settle? -It's her?
You've been texting her?
Settle? Settle what?
Who's the girl?
Don't ask.
What the heck?
Let's talk later.
Where's this punk?
You sure he went to the bathroom?
This punk...
He left this and fled.
His wife uses this to track down his location.
He's using us.
Wife
-What do we do? -We have to pick it up.
If he gets caught again, it's divorce for sure.
You get it. You never got used before.
I'll eventually get used, but now is not the time.
You're the only guy. She trusts you the most.
You want a lawyer to lie?
Then what can we do? Her suspicions are getting bigger by the minute.
I'm just going to let him get divorced.
You're making it so difficult. Here...
Yes, it's me.
Jung Rok just went to the bathroom. What?
Where are you?
Why? She's coming here?
No, we just wanted to have a light drink. So we changed the spot.
Do you know "Rich?"
Come there.
Get up. I told her we're at "Rich."
You can't lie?
Save your comments for later. Let's get going.
That place is close to here. How are we gonna get there in time?
She already checked the location. We gotta stay nearby.
Isn't she coming by car?
She'll get stuck in traffic. We can make it there faster.
Make the reservation.
This is Director Im. You have a room available, right?
Yes, get it prepared for us.
Make it look like the four of us have been drinking there.
Make sure the food looks like it's been eaten.
We're in a hurry. We'll tell you why later.
You can't lie?
But how's Jung Rok gonna get there? We have his cell phone.
I know his other number. He has two cell phones.
Why are you telling us that now?!
Hurry up! We're late!
Jung Rok!
He's dead!
That punk!
Cheeers!
Oh, what are you doing here?
Right, when you were in the bathroom, we talked to her.
Come and have a seat.
I was nearby, and I haven't seen you all in a while.
Now that I've seen you, I'll get going. Have fun.
Hold on.
Go.
One shot.
Love shot! Love shot!
I forgot to tell you that I paid for everything.
Oh, and while I was at it, I spent a bit more.
I want you to go all out.
You guys don't want to have fun?
Fun? It's almost time for bed.
Thanks, but no thanks.
The four of you can have fun. Don't worry about us.
This is my first time in a place like this.
Be careful!
What happened with Do Jin? What is it?
I didn't even get to settle anything, but my secret was revealed.
He knows I cursed him out, and even thinks I stole that pen.
And now, even the past that I wanted to keep hidden is about to get revealed.
A past? Between you and Do Jin?
-Did you sleep with him? -You!
Not that kind of past. We coincidentally ran into one another before.
-We linked eyes and he held my waist... -In bed?
You!
It was on a road. A big road like this.
You better not say anything to Tae San.
Se Ra is coming home with Tae San. You should hide.
What's wrong with Se Ra?
Where are they?
Over there.
What do I do? Where?
Stay at ease...
You're here. You came, too.
You were home. I was going to call.
Did you get the settlement paper from Do Jin?
How did you know?
I knew something was up. I beat him up until he told me.
Really?
I'm kidding.
-You should have. -Oh... I should have?
His personality is getting worse and worse.
What do I do?
She said Kim Do Jin is a low life.
When did I... Yesterday...yesterday...
I know he's like that. Don't be upset about it.
Just let me take care of it.
No. I don't want to.
Don't talk to him about anything that has to do with me.
No, don't even mention my name.
Did something happen?
I just think he has a bad impression of me. Please...
I see. If that's how you feel...
I may be able to settle it faster though...
Where're you looking? Look at me.
Oh. Ok, I will.
You!
Can't you have dinner here and stay the night over?
No, I'm a really light sleeper.
The walls are thin. I can hear...
Who is it?
Hello. I'm here to spread God's good news.
"A peace like the river."
Just kill me. I'm really sorry.
-What's wrong? You know I'm cool. -Thanks.
But you need to kick her out immediately.
Of all the houses... Why that one?
Did you know?
God loves you.
So, why did you go into that pastor's house?
It was a good time.
Thanks to someone...
She knew I was here. Why did she have to bring him here?
And she wants to know why I don't like her.
Talk about me when I'm not here.
At least I do it when you're not here.
Thin walls...
I do talk about you in your absence. Just that I have so much to talk about...
Stop. You did no right.
-When are you leaving? -I was going to leave tomorrow anyway.
I starved for two days. Don't I look great?!
You really like baseball that much?
We should just play golf.
Stop talking about golf.
Why are there so many golf fans?
Nothing wrong with learning how to play...
Why are you on his side?
You should be on my side.
I'm not taking sides. I'm just expressing my opinion.
You always get so anxious when Yoon's not on your side.
He's a lawyer, and he's the smartest one out of all of us.
You know my grades were just as good.
You have a lot of knowledge, but no wisdom.
What're you doing?
Yes. Get an inventory of the coffee beans.
I'll put in the order forms.
Yes.
Okay.
Do you live nearby?
What if I do?
I live around here, too.
Nice to meet you.
I don't think you live around here.
How did you know?
It must be written on my face.
I don't know about that, but it does say that you're married.
Oh!
When did she get here?
Who is it?
You! Im Me Ah Ri!
That's Me Ah Ri?
You!
What the...
I missed you so much.
Yes, it's been a while.
Your brother is here.
Oh, my brother was here, too.
How've you been?
Why are you here so early? It was supposed to be next month.
I just came while the tickets were cheap.
You really aged a lot.
What did you do to your face?
Can't you just say that I got pretty?
I know...
Why are you talking to your friend's sister like that?
You know what Jung Rok just said to me?
It's so good to see you.
How are you?
Let me go! He said...
I'm fine. Thank you.
Let me go!
It's good to be home.
Who moved these here?
What time did you get in? And how did you get in from the airport?
I arrived well, came here well, and moved everything well.
-Are you happy? -Say that in English.
You know how expensive your education was?
Good, good, good. Okay?
Oh, the money was well spent.
This is all you have?
My room is here.
Not right now. You should've let us know.
What do you mean? Someone's using my room?
Yoon is. It's been over a year.
Why? What happened to his apartment?
You don't need to know.
I wasn't expecting you for another month. I didn't get to talk to him about it yet.
You're going to have to use the dressing room for now.
Yoon's leaving if I come in?
We can live together. I'm fine with that.
I'm not.
I'm sure you know what I mean.
I'm going to unpack.
She grew up well.
Yes.
That's it?
What else?
I'm just saying...
I think you're still her first love.
You have a new place to live?
I gotta look into it.
You can come to my place if you want.
Hold on.
Hello.
About taking that pen...
I'm really sorry.
And I'm sorry for telling you that I didn't take it when I did.
But it wasn't on purpose.
I found it, so I'll let it go.
Next.
Next...
You like Tae San, right?
If it's going to take long, let's eat first.
Pick something.
Here.
I'm sorry I'm late.
Who?
She's the teacher of those boys.
What do you want to eat?
All together?
I didn't say it would be the two of us.
Forget it if you don't want...
I didn't say I didn't want to...
What is this? How are you all together?
She wanted to see me.
And this teacher has something to tell me.
-And you and I had plans. -Good, I had something to tell Yi Soo.
I'm sorry. I should get going.
Eat first. It's rush hour.
I'm sure Ms. Seo is not in the mood to eat right now.
Why? You have indigestion?
No, I have some work to do.
I'll call you again.
I was hoping to settle this tonight.
Don't you have something to tell me?
Weren't you going to give me the answers to my questions?
That's what I thought.
Is he pestering you?
It looks like it. Just tell me.
I'm sorry. I'm leaving.
What's wrong with Yi Soo?
I'll be gone for a minute, too.
There's no next time.
I don't need to hear it.
But if you want to tell me, this is your only chance.
I trust more in my decisions than women's excuses.
Let me hear it.
You're mistaken.
And?
It's a misunderstanding.
Fine then.
Oh, Tae San. Yi Soo says she doesn't like you.
What're you doing?
Even at the mention of Tae San's name, your face goes pale.
But I guess you don't really like him...
-Why are you here? -Stop doing that.
I'm not here to see you.
Me Ah Ri is here. Did she call you?
Oh, yes.
I talked to her. She said she lost a lot of weight.
Even her voice sounded a lot thinner.
Yes, I feel like I've lost a sister.
And you!
While you have the chance, you better settle. Or else...
Or else?
Wouldn't Yi Soo think it's funny, too?
Your attitude towards those high schoolers?
We were just in the midst of our negotiation. Why are you butting in?
Yes. We were just deciding on the time to meet.
Tomorrow at 2?
No, 3 PM.
Let's just meet at 2:30. Where?
The entrance to the ladies' room will be next to the storage entrance.
-I understand. -Thank you.
-Where's the settlement paper? -I have to write it now.
Here?
I agree to settle.
Satisfied?
Hey... Director Kim!
What kind of a person is that?
What do I do?
Should I take a picture of it?
Move out of the way.
Who writes a settlement paper on dirt?
Use paper.
I'm very creative. You want it on paper?
Hold this.
I settle. -Kim Do Jin
Tae San, I really didn't want to ask for help. But I think Do Jin is a bad man.
He won't settle.
No. No. No. Please...
Seriously, I'm going to kill myself.
What do I do?
What am I gonna do?
Tae San, I think that teacher, Ms. Seo, is going around talking trash about me.
She should say it to my face. Such a coward.
What do I do?
Really? Let's take this to the next level.
Tae San, I think Kim Do Jin is mistaken.
Should I meet him to clear up the misunderstanding?
Tae San, I'm going to 425-1 Non Hyun Town. If I ask Seo Yi Soo to come, do you think she will?
Tae San, I'm on my way to meet with Kim Do Jin.
Tae San, if I negotiate, do you think Yi Soo will take me out to dinner?
Tae San, if he's willing to settle, I'm ready to even grow rice for him.
Tae San, ask her to grow grapes instead of rice.
When will I get the settlement paper...
You didn't pay yet.
I'll do that when we leave.
How do I know you won't just take off? You even stole my pen.
Why are you looking at me like that?
Don't you know that a pen thief becomes a cow thief?
I shouldn't be saying this when you have so many things against me...
But I really think I paid my price.
Is this still the punishment for not remembering you?
Is this the poetic justice you were talking about?
-No. -Then what?
This is the only way I can see you.
I fell for you at first sight.
Stop joking around.
Then how about falling for you every time I see you?
-Listen... -Why do you like Tae San?
I don't know why I have to tell you about my one-sided love.
But I didn't even have a chance to think about why I like him.
The moment I saw him, I liked him. And every time I saw him, I liked him more.
And now...
I like him even when I don't see him.
If that's true. Shouldn't you do something about it?
Find another love, or...
Have an affair with your roommate's man.
Don't worry about my one-sided love.
It fits me well, and I'm pretty good at it.
Stop caring about my one-sided love. I don't need an audience.
And this is a request.
Please keep this a secret.
Negotiate. Keep a secret.
You're too demanding.
Don't you think that's wrong?
I already sent the settlement papers to the police station this morning.
Take care of the rest with the officer in charge.
-Oh, thank... -Thanks for the wine.
How do you feel?
I feel good.
When I saw the alimony deposits in my bank account, those hellish 3 years were all worth it.
Although I can't get repaid for losing my youth thanks to all the heartaches.
You're still beautiful.
I'm single now. Those kinds of words can lure me.
You were so sexy in court, but you're boyish in real life.
Thanks for everything.
Tomorrow is Valentine's Day.
Really? Thank you.
I guess you don't have a girlfriend. You don't know it's Valentine's Day.
Then, you want to have dinner with me?
-Sorry, but I'm busy. -I knew you'd say no.
I'll come again to get another divorce.
You shouldn't. You should be happy now.
Yes?
Why aren't you coming home? Because of me?
Even before, there were many times I didn't go home.
I've got many women willing to take me in.
Take you in, and give you chocolate, too?
She must be nice.
-Why are you here? -What are you doing later?
At 7:20, I have a family dinner. At 9:10, I have to stop by a college reunion.
-At 12:30, I have plans with the baseball... -You're lying.
Well... fine. Have a good time.
He's usually so quiet, but he was talking so fast.
I thought he was rapping.
-Maybe he really was busy. -You think?
No way. He was rejecting you.
Seriously...
But what about you?
My brother doesn't know yet?
That you like him?
Why does he have to know that?
Why are so many people interested in my one-sided love?
This is a request. You have to keep this a secret.
Why? You liked him first.
Se Ra got in the way.
There's no such thing.
Whoever makes the dash first, is the rightful person.
Are you starting to get interested in Do Jin?
Hey.... What do you think I am?
Don't underestimate my one-sided love.
Drink.
Why're you making me drink so fast?
You want to use my drunkenness as an excuse to call my brother?
No!
Then that's good.
In honesty, I'm going to get drunk tonight, and confess my love to Yoon.
Look at this girl...
Do you think that looks sexy?
No. You'll look really easy.
What guy doesn't like an easy girl?
What did you study in school?
You have to learn, too.
101 ways to lure a man.
Oh, really?
Is that why you're drinking here with me? And that chocolate is still here?
Ms. Seo, I love you!
I love you, too.
I love you more.
Really?
But I really, really love you.
Please buy it for me.
You ate all my chocolate.
Tell the truth.
You opened the box, and offered it to me first.
Why would you accept it?
You should've stopped me. You know how much that cost?
Fine. I'll buy it for you.
You're so cheap. I'll buy it for you.
How much is this?
No, the most expensive one.
I'm going to get a card, too. Please deliver the card and the chocolate.
-Fill out this card, and tell us the address. -Okay.
Hey...
You wasted the cheap chocolate on me, and now you're making me get this expensive one.
You don't think I know?
I'm a teacher, and you are...
Water... Water...
Why did you drink so much?
Me Ah Ri wanted to drink.
She doesn't have a boyfriend?
How pathetic on Valentine's Day.
I know...
The chocolate that Ms. Seo Yi Soo bought is about to get delivered to Mr. Im Tae Sun.
Disgusting!
What is it?!
Oh, yes. I'm the one who bought the chocolate last night.
Yes, the two drunken women.
Do you know who the recipient is?
Im...?!
Was it already sent?
Why are you so hard-working?
Hi, this is Seo Yi Soo.
Are you in the office?
Why? You want me to be in front of your house right now?
Can you just answer "yes" or "no"? I'm in a big hurry.
Are you with Tae San?
No. He's at the construction site.
I'll be there soon. Don't be shocked.
Now that she's got the settlement papers, she just hangs up?
What is that?
It's for Director Im.
Excuse me...
If you have business with Tae San, you should've called him.
Why are you getting me involved?
Now that your secret's been revealed, you're going to use me?
No...
I have something really urgent.
How strange...
Even when I tell her I don't like sweets...
You must be popular.
There's even names I don't recognize. I feel at a loss.
Oh... Is that why you got one from me, too?
The most expensive one.
Yi Soo?
What're you doing here so early?
Oh, hello.
It's so good to see you here unexpectedly.
What brings you here?
Did you still not negotiate?
She sent you these.
To me?
I think she wants to confess her love.
Kim Do Jin!
Confess?
To me?
You and I are the only ones here. You think it's me?
Yes! It's you.
Even if there were 100 men here, it would still be you.
You're the only one.
The only person I want to confess my love to is you.
Please accept it.

If you don't have feelings for Yi Soo, you should just turn her down, now.
You can't toy around with her for your curiosity.
I won't die alone. Die with me.
What's wrong?
Please sign.
You need to sign.
When did you start liking me?
I know... Aren't I a pretty boy?
I just stole this car. Is that okay?
You don't have a gun, do you?
You usually get problems with your lower body.
Why am I here?
That was over 5 hours ago. We're at a hotel.
-We're at a hotel. -Then, did something...
