Excuse me. How much is the ticket to Seoul?
It's 14,400 won.

That's 14,000 won.

(Last Episode)
Why haven't you gone home?
Something felt off.
What?
I got a call saying the model...
...for VC Constructions has been cast today.
She's taking time...
...to reflect on her wrongdoings...
...after her DUI last year.
But using her as the model out of the blue...
Did VC Constructions...
...make this call?
I thought it was weird, so I looked into it.
The headquarters signed the model,
and they notified VC Constructions.
(Jo Yu-na)
Look at this.
You're making a mistake at the perfect time.
I'll have to get started...
...on making the Prince fall off his horse.
(Jo Yu-na)
What's going on?
Let's move now.
Did I make a mistake?
I need to check.
To be precise, a few photos...
...of Vice President Kang and Jo Yu-na together.
Jo Yu-na? What about her?
She's restraining herself... ...after drinking and driving.
Then she was selected...
...as a model for VC Constructions.
There's something between her and Kang Han-soo.
Are you going to meddle with Kim Seo- jung...
...and provoke Chairman Kim of Woowon?
That too.
But what matters more is the embezzlement...
...and defamation of the company.
It's too much to ask the secretaries...
...to follow Vice President Kang...
...and take photos of him.
Tell them to take photos...
...of Jo Yu-na, not Vice President Kang.
What's the reason?
That we had to check the bad rumor...
...on the brand model.
And by coincidence,
we found Kang Han-soo with her.
Yes. I'll prepare the rest.
I'm getting a hunch.
The alarm is ringing.
(20:30)
Gosh, no wonder...
...my waist was starting to hurt.
It's already time to get up.
Yes, Director Go.
(Lead, follow, or get out of the way.)
Mr. Han.
Let's work on VC Constructions' commercial...
...with Jo Yu-na as a model.
You want to proceed?
Instead of changing the model?
Yes.
There will be big damage due to backlash.
That's why I'm doing it.
To damage the person...
...who chose Jo Yu-na as a model.
I'll send you the copy.
(Calls)
The phone is turned off.
Your call has been forwarded...
...to an automatic voice message system...
That punk.
I shouldn't have pitied him.
You think...
...I have no backup like you?
Did you call Mr. Han?
Not yet. - Hurry up.
(VC Group Director Choi Chang-soo)
Hello?
How did it go?
I'm in the meeting.
Hey. Frame it...
...as Director Yoo's personal deviation...
Chang-soo. Wait for now.
Can you settle it?
We haven't always worked on...
...things that can be settled.
We force it to settle... ...every time there is trouble.
Just trust me.
Don't make any moves on your own.
Okay.
Don't come to work today.
Take a day off and rest at home.
Okay.
Mr. Kim. Are you planning to cover it up?
Are you crazy?
How can I cover up...
...what the evening news delivered live?
Call the internal affairs team,
and tell them to get rid of him soon.
Yes, sir.
I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that.
I apologize.
Will you forgive me just this once?
Sure. I'll forgive you once.
Only this once.
(We build safety.)
(VC Constructions in the center of safe Korea)
(We build safety.) (We build safety.) (VC Constructions)
(We build safety.)
(VC Constructions in the center of safe Korea)
(Are they crazy to use her as a model?)
(VC Constructions neglect safety.)
(I wouldn't live there.) (I wouldn't live there.) (Who would want to live there?)
(We build safety.)
Director Go. What's this?
How can you laugh?
You knew there will be an uproar...
...if you use Jo Yu-na as a model.
I did.
And yet you went with it?
So there should be an apology.
From whom? You.
Why do I have to apologize...
...for Kang Han-soo's trouble?
If someone else apologizes...
...for his trouble...
The one that apologized and handled it...
...would seem like the next leader.
Are you ready to release the article?
I've prepared it to be released immediately.
Director Kang, post a video of your apology...
...on social media as soon as possible.
Release the article at 6 a.m. tomorrow...
...so that people can read it...
...on their tedious way to work.
Should I post the article...
...on my social media too?
No,
that might alter the message...
...from Vice President Kang's deviation...
...to a conflict between VC Group's successors.
I understand what you're saying.
Make the title of the article...
..."Jo Yu-na in a love triangle,"
and what must be included in it is...
..."She is dating...
...VC Group's Vice President Kang Han- soo...
...who is engaged to Woowon Group's...
...Vice President Kim Seo-jung."
Send me the article as soon as it's out.
Do you want to check it? No. No.
There's a person I want to show first.
But she's your friend.
Do you think it'll be okay?
I should show her because we're friends.
Just leave it there.
I told you not to clean it up!
(She is dating VC Group's...)
(...Vice President Kang Han-soo.)
The article will be released soon.
I thought you should know.
(I'm sorry. Please forgive me. Kang Han-soo)
Have you lost your mind?
Don't you know that it's all over...
...if the chairman of Woowon opposes?
Father,
it wasn't like that.
All I did was drink with her once.
I told you to get along with Seo-jung.
How could you do this?
I told them to take down the article.
It's not a big deal. I'll handle it.
There's a shareholders' meeting tomorrow.
I know. I know. Want to overturn it?
No, sir. Meet Seo-jung today...
...and calm her down, okay?
Yes.
I'll take care of the matter...
...regarding Jo Yu-na's advertisement.
How?
The person who must leave the company...
...should take the fall, right?
Who do you mean?
(Jo Yu-na in a love triangle)
Yes, did you handle it?
Of course.
By the way,
an issue came up regarding our model.
How awkward for Vice President Kang.
It was total chaos this morning.
Listen, I'll take care of this.
You?
(VC Planning Director Choi Chang-soo)
How?
I'll meet Jo Yu-na's boss...
...and make him say...
...that he bribed Go Ah-in.
Then, the vice president won't be responsible...
...and we can fire Go Ah-in.
What do you think?
Chang-soo. - Yes.
As I expected,
you and I think exactly alike.
I got it for now.
But...
...I just told the internal affairs team...
...that the person who took a bribe was...
...Director Choi Chang-soo,
not Director Go Ah-in.
Director Choi Chang-soo.
You have been dismissed as of today...
...along with Director Yoo Jung-suk.
I...
...resign.
You made the right decision.
If you resign today,
we won't pursue...
...further investigations or legal actions.
That includes accepting a bribe...
...from Jo Yu-na's agency.
What are you talking about?
I didn't do that!
As I expected,
you and I think exactly alike.
I got it for now.
(Letter of Resignation)
You had coffee with...
...the president of Jo Yu-na's agency.
Chief Secretary Kim said if I told you that,
you would sign the paper.
You should get your severance pay at least.
You know more than anyone...
...that you can't beat them.
Please sign.
(Please accept my letter of resignation.)
(Applicant: Choi Chang-soo)
Employees from the internal affairs team...
...are in Director Choi's office right now.
Because of the Woosung Milk case?
No, because of Jo Yu-na's case.
They must have no more use for Director Choi.
Let go!
How dare you lay your hand on me!
Why should I be the one to leave?
While everyone went home, on weekends,
and even on holidays, I was working.
I was the one who grew...
...VC Planning to where it is now.
That woman takes barbiturates like candies.
Is she qualified to be the president?
Do you think you should leave this company...
...in the hands of someone...
...who is mentally unstable?
If what you said is true,
I've been on barbiturates for three years,
so do I also not qualify to work at VC planning?
Me too.
I've been on it too.
Me too.
Sir.
I've learned everything...
...about ad planning from you.
We've had conflicts...
...and raise our voices at times,
but as an ad man,
I have respected you, sir.
Please help me continue to respect you...
...until the end.
Sir,
please help me.
(Grand Prize in Brand Advertisement)
(Plaque of Merit, Choi Chang-soo)
(Choi Chang-soo)
I wasn't thinking straight.
It's still such a shame.
You should have joined Planning.
I apologize...
...for showing you my ugly side.
I had nothing personal against you.
I was just...
The company made you that way.
It's hard to make a living.
Thanks for saying that, at least.
Don't worry about what happened today.
Even if I were in your position,
it wouldn't have been much different.
You must win.
This is a first.
I'm cheering for you.
We work in the same field, so we'll meet again.
No.
I'm now...
...tired of advertising.
Thank you for all your hard work until now.
I'll go on my own.
Director Choi, thank you for your hard work.
Thank you, sir. - Thank you, sir.
Work hard, everyone.
But not like me.
(We are closed temporarily.)
(Yoo Jung-suk)
Living a lukewarm life...
...isn't too bad either.
Dad.
I won't get married.
Since the news articles have been published,
the whole country knows now.
How could I get married?
Han-soo.
That punk...
(VC Group Chairman Kang Geun-chul)
What is this about?
Look here, Chairman Kim.
You're not in the mood to talk, are you?
Did you call to ask me that?
No.
I called you to make you feel better.
Let's meet up right now, quietly.
(Legal Team Head Bae Jung-hyun)
It's me.
(Law Department Meeting Room)
Yes, I understand.
However, I have something to ask you.
Will Director Go trust what I say?
If it weren't for Director Go,
would you still be getting paid by me?
If you say you want to repay her kindness,
why wouldn't she trust you?
You can't try...
...to run away from me just yet.
You must be busy. Why the sudden meeting?
Tomorrow at 2 p.m.,
there will be a shareholder's meeting.
The main item is Vice President Kang Han- soo...
...being elected as vice chairman.
Already?
Did I come too late?
Yes. Come in.
(President Jo Moon-ho)
I came out of frustration.
It will be hard...
...to come up with a plan in a day, right?
You knew.
I just found out.
Now, the end is in sight.
Yes. At this rate, neither I...
...nor Director Kang Han-na...
You did something with Director Kang...
...regarding the model issue.
Director Choi already took the blame...
...and left the company for that.
It won't be enough to use...
...to turn the tables at the meeting.
Director Go.
What do you do when there's no path?
You must make a path.
No. Only those who have...
...never properly worked will say that.
You don't need such things as paths.
Don't look for the path.
Just keep doing what you've been doing.
And if you succeed,
other people will call that a path.
Even if it could end as a storm in a teacup?
Are you afraid of failure?
I must've mistaken your character.
Just do it?
Whether you succeed or fail,
do it in your own way.
Who knows?
Something you never expected might happen.
Like what?
(Lead, follow, or get out of the way.)
(VC Group Director Go Ah-in)
Hello? Come to the meeting room. Just you.
Will we be able to do that in a day?
We'll have to try to find out.
Tonight will be pretty long.
Straighten your shoulders. - What?
Straighten your shoulders and relax your face.
And go stand over there.
(VC Communications)
Right. From now on,
let's start the presentation to win over...
...the shareholders.
Hasn't Han-na come home yet?
Or did she leave early?
She must've partied with her friends somewhere.
Is that so?
Will she have the time for that now?
Yong-ho.
Yes.
Are you busy today?
No, I don't have much going on.
Then why are you eating in such a hurry?
I had a light dinner last night.
I'll get going first.
What happened to your meeting with Seo- jung?
It's been resolved well.
Is that so?
I've promised her that it won't happen again.
And it really won't.
You don't think Grandpa noticed?
He hasn't said anything in particular.
Even if he has caught on, it doesn't matter.
All we need is for the Chairman of Woowon...
...to take our side.
I hear you will have lunch with him today.
I'll go to the shareholders' meeting with him.
You should come with Seo-jung as well.
Okay.
This concludes my presentation.
(Thank you.)
Now you're at a competent senior manager level.
Good work.
Not everyone can improve as much overnight.
Stop complimenting me.
It's annoying.
Your appearance is part of the presentation.
Do something about your look.
See you at one o'clock.
She's annoying.
A-ji.
Won't you say goodbye? I'm going to work.
Eun-jung, can I talk to you for a minute?
Yesterday,
A-ji got into a huge fight at kindergarten.
Why?
While singing...
..."Calf, calf, calf with spots,"
other kids were teasing A-ji...
...for his name...
...and saying calling him by his name...
...isn't teasing.
I like his name.
I find it cute.
Eun-jung.
Yes? - It's not your name.
It's his name...
...for life.
All right.
I'll think about it.
What happened between Seo-jung and Han- soo?
They met up yesterday and reconciled.
The chairman of Woowon...
...must be on Han-soo's side.
What happened? What do you mean?
You said appearance is part of the presentation.
Why haven't you changed your look?
I'm not going to the shareholders' meeting.
How could you not go?
I work for the agency,
and I act as a proxy.
Since I've done my job,
you're on your own.
But...
...you can guide me.
Are you nervous?
Of course I am.
I believe that you'll do well.
Because I worked hard to prepare it last night?
No,
because you're a weirdo.
Keep doing what you're doing.
It doesn't matter whether you win or not.
Go there and do it with confidence.
I've prepared it strategically,
so now it's time to act like a crazy wench?
(The 56th VC Group Shareholders' Meeting)
Thanks to you, it will end well.
Thanks to me?
It's a win-win situation.
We have shares in each other's company.
The children will arrive soon. Let's go in.
When shall I go in?
Since you're uninvited,
go in right on time...
...so they have no time to kick you out.
All right.
(We're going in...)
We're going in on the dot.
I will keep you updated.
(The 56th VC Group Shareholders' Meeting)
Dear shareholders, thank you for coming...
...despite your busy schedule.
We will start...
...VC Group shareholders' meeting.
Move out of the way!
Move.
What are you doing?
Director Kang is one of the shareholders.
Why can't she attend the meeting?
We're only following orders.
Here's my order.
Get out of my way.
Hey.
Who do you think you are blocking me like this?
Director Kang Han-na.
You should leave.
No.
I understand how you feel,
but what can you possibly do now?
What I do is none of your business.
Move out of my way.
Director Kang.
Leave.
Go.
What are you doing?
What are you doing, Young-woo?
Take the director away now.
Do you want a drink?
No, I'm waiting for some news.
You should've gone to the shareholders' meeting.
Why did you come here?
We're not leaders.
I see.
When things go well,
it's thanks to the leader's talent.
When things don't go well,
it's our fault as supporters?
I also need to do some marketing research.
On what?
It depends on the news.
I don't know if I'll keep working...
...or open up a restaurant like you.
Open up a restaurant?
You aren't apt to be...
...in the hospitality industry.
Goodness.
It looks like you'd be better off tipsy.
Why did you leave?
If you had stayed with the agency,
you'd be better off...
Hey.
I'm sick and tired of advertisements.
Ji-woo's marriage went well because of it.
You haven't changed at all.
What do you mean?
You're a bad liar.
He hasn't contacted me yet,
which means that they didn't enter the meeting.
Darn it. - Move out of the way.
We'll now start the vote...
...regarding the selection...
...of Vice President Kang Han-soo...
...as vice chairman.
You can't give up yet, can you?
What are you going to do?
If the door doesn't open,
we must break it.
All of you.
How dare you servants block...
...my granddaughter's way?
Grandpa.
Hello, Chairman Wang.
Were you secretly behind this too?
Well, it was...
...Chairman Kang's order.
It's true that you're powerless.
When things go well, it's because of the owner.
If things go bad, it's the servant's fault.
Pardon?
Someone must take responsibility.
Hey.
Yes, Chairman Wang.
Why do you have a tie on your wrist?
Well...
I knew she always liked wild guys...
...since she was young.
(The VC Group Shareholders' Meeting)
How can he walk...
Didn't you know? He can walk fine.
Then why was he in a wheelchair?
Why do you think I hate walking?
I take after him.
What are you doing? Get to work.
Yes, I'm coming.
(The 56th VC Group Shareholders' Meeting)
(Report on VC Brand Damage From Negative Issues)
Hello. I'm Director Kang Han-na of VC Planning.
I know you are all busy,
so I'll cut to the chase.
(Report on VC Brand Damage From Negative Issues)
Don't laugh.
How many times do I have to tell you to stop?
You want me to frown then?
You just need to keep a soft smile on.
A bright look on your face...
...makes the presentation look unreliable.
Start from the top.
You probably remember the issue...
...that occurred in VC Constructions...
...due to using a model who drank and drove.
As a result, there were about...
...57,800 negative postings on social media.
And 121 negative articles...
...were issued.
Now,
why do you think this happened?
I heard it was the scandal...
...of some director in VC Planning.
Of course,
but only on the outside.
Hands.
Keep them in front of you.
That was out of habit.
Besides, American CEOs...
...even keep their hands in their pockets.
This is not a big deal.
Are you in the States?
An arrogant attitude...
...raises negative inner feelings in others.
Then? Do you want me to stand like a sinner?
A modest, yet confident attitude.
Keep that in mind.
Modest, yet confident?
You think that makes sense?
Why don't you just tell me...
...to make hot iced Americano?
What matters is the content.
What's the point of wasting time on this?
What matters as much as the content is the form.
And what matters as much as the form is... And what matters as much as the form is... ...your attitude.
Your look, action, and attitude...
...during the presentation.
Those elements are the first thing...
...the audience directly perceives.
You must stop whining and make it work.
Start from the top.
(121 articles)
Are you saying there is an internal reason?
Of course.
Before driving and driving,
Jo Yu-na received 500 million won a year.
Then while she was restraining herself,
she became a model for one billion won.
Why is that?
What's that? - Who's that?
I knew it.
My goodness.
I'll leave it to your imagination.
However, if my speculation is right,
this is a breach of duty...
...by embezzling the company fund.
Plus,
when I calculated time and cost...
...to retrieve the damage,
the amount of damage on VC Group is...
...approximately 1.2 trillion won.
Look at that.
How is that possible?
What's he going to do now?
I can't believe it.
Therefore,
as one of VC Group's major stockholders,
I am against appointing...
...Vice President Kang Han-soo...
as vice chairman.
(VC Group)
Even if he is my grandson,
I can't promote the man...
...who damaged the company.
I'm against it.
I'm in favor.
- Me too.
I'm in favor. - I'm in favor.
I'm in favor too. - Me too.
(VC Group)
Now, it's up to you.
Now, let's decide it with pleasure.
In terms of...
...Vice President Kang Han-soo's...
...appointment as vice chairman,
I am against it.
You must be upset...
...about my grandson's scandal.
So,
what now?
What else?
Let's call their marriage off.
What?
Then are you saying...
...you want to break off our relationship?
Hey, look.
Does your daughter have to marry my grandson...
...to maintain our relationship?
We need each other.
To defend our management right.
I can give back what I gained...
...with no regrets,
but what do you gain...
...from this?
Han-soo and Han-na's infinite competition.
What do you say about my suggestion?
Sir.
How can you do that without discussing it?
You jerk.
Did you think you could be on a roll...
...after making my daughter cry?
Han-soo. I can forgive you once,
but if you want me to the second time,
that's pure greed.
(The 56th VC Group Shareholders' Meeting)
As Vice President Kang's appointment...
...has been canceled,
I'll introduce you...
...a professional businessman...
...as a new vice chairman.
Come in.
(The 56th VC Group Shareholders' Meeting)
Father.
I noticed...
...you still have a long way to go.
You need to learn from Moon-ho.
Like before.
Mr. Jo.
(The 56th VC Group Shareholders' Meeting)
I'm Jo Moon-ho.
I'm the new vice chairman candidate.
Nice to meet you.
(VC Group General Meeting of Stockholders)
(VC Group)
(Kang Han-na)
Geez.
I was just about to...
...teach you how to run a bar.
If I learn from you,
it'll only go under.
All right.
Congratulations.
Thanks.
All right. OYSN!
OYSN! - OYSN!
By the way, what does OYSN mean?
Well,
it means "our youth starts now."
Can you even call yourself...
...the executive of VC Planning...
...if you don't even know...
...these newly coined terms...
...that aren't even popular anymore?
Director Go isn't here yet.
Should we raise our glasses already?
Of course. There are many things...
...we can raise our glasses for.
FRAST,
AVM, and DPL.
What's DPL?
I like that one the best.
I knew it.
Everyone has their own saying for a toast.
What does it mean?
Drink, pay, and leave.
Anyway, where's Director Go?
I'd like to pay for this.
It's 5,000 won.
You're working hard.
Thank...
Director Go.
How have you been?
What brings you here?
I'm getting promoted.
Oh, congratulations.
I said I'm getting promoted.
Well,
once again, congratu...
I came here to keep my promise to you.
Wait just a little while.
I'll find another way.
Drink up.
Pardon?
You'll have to drink a lot today.
Director Go.
Hey, Soo-jung! - Oh, my.
Hello.
Thank you.
Have you been doing well? - Yes.
No,
but I think I'll be doing well from now.
What? Did you just hear him?
Look at how forward he is.
Why don't you propose a toast, Director Kang?
Well, thank you, everyone.
It is all thanks to you.
Drink up. Today, I'll DPL!
DPL?
How can you call yourself the executive...
...of the great VC Planning...
...if you don't even know...
...these newly coined terms?
Okay, cheers!
Cheers. - Cheers.
I'll get going.
Join us for a second round.
The staff seems more at ease too.
I am going for a second round,
but to console someone,
not to congratulate them.
You're right.
One person's victory is another person's defeat.
I'll get going.
Congrats on breaking it off.
What the heck?
Hey.
There's a time and place to tease someone.
I'm not teasing you. I mean it.
People think we do whatever we want,
but you know that it isn't like that.
You may be upset about it now,
but it's for the best.
Why get into an arranged marriage?
Then, who would you be with?
Someone who would only have eyes for me.
Hey,
there's no one like that these days.
There is.
And he's surprisingly nearby.
You brat.
You think you're so clever, don't you?
I'll drink with you all night long.
What's everybody doing?
A-ji...
This is the last time I can call you that.
Will you change my name?
You made the right choice. - Good thinking.
(Song Soo-han)
I like this name.
I'm no longer Song A-ji!
It's nice.
Anyway, what does it mean?
What?
Well... - It must have a meaning.
Well, I guess you can't say that...
...it doesn't have a meaning,
you see.
Mom, I don't care about the meaning.
I gave him that name so he could live long.
Live long? Like a soldier?
No.
Don't you remember?
There was a comedy show...
...where they gave their son...
...a name to live a long life.
Kim Soo-han-moo...
...Tortoise Crane...
...Sam-cheon-gap-ja Dong-bang-sak.
I shortened that to Soo-han,
so your full name is...
...Song Soo-han-moo...
...Tortoise Crane...
...Sam-cheon-gap-ja Dong-bang...
Honey! - Eun-jung!
Mom!
What?
Song Soo-han-moo...

That's right!
Sam-cheon-gap-ja Dong-bang-sak.
Gosh, the soup is scrumptious.
Ma'am,
can you give me more soup?
Please excuse me.
Hey, eldest grandson.
Yes.
Sit down.
No, thank you. I have things to do.
Sit!
Finish that...
...until there's no grain of rice left.
That's right. Good job.
This is just the beginning.
You can't get tired already.
Yes, Grandpa.
Yes, sir.
Don't avoid it because it's uncomfortable.
If you get into the habit...
...of running from things that are tough,
you'll live as a loser your whole life.
Han-soo,
Han-na.
Yes. - Yes.
Keep fighting.
I'll be on the winning side.
Han-na, Dad is...
I know that you did it for my sake.
Then, will you forgive me?
Forgive you for what?
You should forgive me, Dad.
For what?
Instead of living the way you want,
I live the way I want.
You don't need my forgiveness for that.
I should be cheering for you.
Wait just a little while.
Being at the top of the world...
...may be a stretch,
but I'll make us the top of Asia.
I should live for a long time.
We'll get going.
Wait.
Give me your hand.
My hand? - Yes.
That felt great.

Dating someone, Mr. Park Young-woo,
no arranged marriage in my life.
Ma'am, take it down.
Shall I?
I'm not kidding right now.
Really?
Then, I should get back in.
Why? What?
Kang Han-na.
Will you really go out with me?
Yes, I will.
But Mr. Park. Why are you speaking casually?
Nine to six.
Work hasn't started yet.
I don't know either.
Let's just go for it.
Will you speak formally again at nine o'clock?
I was just kidding with the casual speech.
Why? Keep going.
It was sexy. Director Kang, is that what you like?
Then I take it back. I won't date you.
What? Mr. Park!

Can I see that?
Yes, that looks good.
The flowers, please.
Here you go.
Here she comes.
(Congratulations, President Go Ah-in.)
(From the VC Planning Staff)
What?
Director Kang!
(Congratulations, President Go Ah-in.)
(From the VC Planning Staff)
President Go is here.
(President Go Ah-in, congratulations.)
Congratulations on your promotion.
Mr. Han. You know I hate this stuff.
You can't always do...
...the things you like in life.
(President Go Ah-in)
This way.
This is the CPO of Strategy. - Congratulations.
The CPO of Investments.
Congratulations, ma'am.
The CPO of Global Operations.
And this is the Director of Media.
Congratulations, ma'am.
Director of HR.
This is your first time as president, right?
You should ask me questions as you work.
Don't make trouble...
...by working on things nobody asked for...
...because you don't know anything.
Please help guide me in the future.
President Go, please give us a word.
What are you all doing?
It's working hours.
Let's go to work.

Here's your hot Americano as you ordered.
A warm latte.
Thank you.
(Key Woman Communications)
Come on!
If you change the copy like that,
the meaning becomes something different.
Sir, we're not like other ad agencies.
We don't throw together ads for money.
We're your creative partners!
A good ad...
...comes from a good advertiser.
Yes. Call me once you decide.
Gosh.
Won't your baby be startled...
...if you get worked up like that?
I know, right?
Sa-ri, don't be scared.
This is what life is normally like.
Did you name your baby Sa-ri?
But your first child's name caused a big fuss.
Still. Song Sa-ri leaves a big impact.
Gosh, Ms. Jo.
I mean, it's not my place to say...
No.
We don't just sell creative contents.
(Key Woman Communications)
Don't look at the size of the company.
Look at the size of the creative contents.
Yes, I'm confident.
Work with us.
I'm hanging up now.
Gosh, I'm so stressed out.
Byung-soo, let's go eat.
How does kimchi stew sound?
Why? Don't you want kimchi stew?
Have we had it too often?
Are you happy?
What? Kimchi stew?
No.
Quitting the president's position at VC...
...and being the president of a small agency.
Did you think I'd live as a servant forever?
Then how about you guys?
Us?
You quit working a stable job at VC Planning,
and you followed me out.
Did you think we'd live as servants forever?
We're all shareholders...
...of Key Woman Communications.
I have five percent. - I have three percent.
I have four percent.
And I have 10 percent.
I have 0.5 percent.
Don't you regret it?
People must've thought...
...if Go Ah-in became president of VC Planning,
she would feel satisfied.
People's opinions, you say?
Why should others decide my limits?
