Can I talk to you for a second?
(Episode 24)
Sung Wook?
Mr. Kang, what are you doing here?
I said I wanted to talk to you briefly.
I have nothing to talk about with you.
I have to talk to you.
Let's talk outside.
Then let's talk at work.
It's not a work-related matter. I won't take too much of your time.
What are you doing now?
Let go of me now.
Seung Ju said she didn't want to talk to you.
What are you doing now?
It won't take long.
Were you always like this?
I said it wouldn't take long.
I already refused.
Seung Ju.
I'm very disappointed in you.
Let's go, Cha Yeol.
Mr. Kang Sung Wook.
I'm sorry, Min Jung.
Just be thankful that I'm letting it go like this.
I'm sorry that we had to leave without finishing our food.
Sung Wook seems to have a crush on you.
What about you?
What do you mean by that?
I'm asking if you like him too.
Why? You don't?
How would you feel about it?
About what?
If I fell in love with your brother, how would you feel about that?
I'd respect your feelings.
If you liked him,
I'd root for you two.
Do you like him?
Drop me off over there.
I'll drive you to your house.
We're almost there.
I want to walk a little bit.
Okay, then.
Go home safely.
You too. See you tomorrow.
(Director Kang Sung Wook)
The person you have reached is unavailable. Please leave a message...
Come on.
Yes, Ms. Jung.
No, my son hasn't come back yet.
Did they part ways already?
Ms. Choi, we have a problem.
What do you mean by that? What problem?
Your son asked another girl to leave with him...
while having dinner with his date.
What?
What's wrong?
Nothing.
What happened? Tell me the details.
Yes.
What?
Even so,
how could she dump water on my son?
What's her problem?
Why did you set him up with a girl like her?
I'm hanging up.
This is unbelievable. How could he do that?
What's the matter?
- What? - Did something happen on the blind date?
No.
I think you're lying.
What is it?
Well, the thing is...
Apparently, Sung Wook didn't take her home.
And she thought he had bad manners.
Is that it, really?
Of course. What else could have happened?
Did he not like her?
That's probably why he acted that way.
Even so, he shouldn't have done it.
I thought he was better than that.
There's nothing wrong with that if he didn't like her.
It's not that a man must always take his date home.
Hey, what on earth did you do?
What do you mean?
Did you have a drink?
I'm not drunk though.
Come with me. Let's talk.
What did you do on the blind date?
You heard about it already?
By any chance,
were Ms. Baek and Cha Yeol at the same restaurant?
How did you know that?
Come on. It's obvious.
You said you gave up on her.
Then why did you do that?
Do you still have feelings for her?
Sung Wook.
I've decided to try to get with Seung Ju again.
What?
So consider yourself informed.
What changed your mind so suddenly?
You agreed to go on the blind date.
Then why are you acting this way?
Meeting that girl made me realize...
that I fell more deeply for Seung Ju than I thought.
What did you just say?
I thought I was over her,
but no one else caught my attention.
Maybe you mistake your feelings for love.
What do you mean by that?
Maybe it's not that you have a crush on her,
but you're just jealous...
because she seemed close to Cha Yeol.
Why would I be jealous of him?
My point exactly.
Why would you be?
You seemed to have gotten over her.
Then why did you let her sway you again?
It wasn't like that. Don't jump to a conclusion.
Whatever you decide to do,
I won't ever accept Ms. Baek as my daughter-in-law.
Get yourself together.
Is Sung Wook back?
Why did you go to that place and ruin his blind date?
I went there just to have dinner.
Exactly.
Why did you go to that place...
out of all the restaurants?
Let's talk.
I have nothing to talk about with you. Leave.
Seung Ju is my friend that I care about.
Don't ever treat her like that again.
If you get in my way as you did earlier again,
I won't let it slide.
- Here you go. - Thanks.
- Please enjoy. - Thank you. I'll enjoy it.
What happened earlier today? Why did you skip dinner,
lying in the room like this?
Won't you tell me what's wrong?
Uncle Jung Ho, the food is here.
Okay.
Honey, I ordered jokbal that you like.
Let's go out and eat.
You go ahead and eat with the kids.
We have already had dinner.
I ordered it for you.
So let's go out and eat some.
I'm not in the mood for eating jokbal.
Do tell me.
Why aren't you in the mood to eat jokbal?
Stop bothering me. Leave me alone, will you?
I'm home.
Hey, come on in. You're back at the perfect timing.
That looks good. You ordered jokbal.
This is great. I'm hungry.
Who says you can sit there?
Pack up and leave immediately.
Mom.
Dong Hee, go upstairs with Him Chan.
Okay. Him Chan, let's go upstairs.
- Okay, Mom. - Let's go.
What is this about?
Did Tae Pyung do something wrong again?
Why are you sitting there? I told you to pack up and leave.
Mom, what's wrong? Is this about what happened earlier?
What happened earlier?
I saw Mom lashing out at Ja Young.
So I stopped her, and now, she's upset.
What?
I was lashing out at Ja Young?
Are you denying it?
Why did you get all mad at her when I was the one who had done wrong?
You should've gotten mad at me.
Are you saying...
that you dragged me out like a dog...
because you felt bad for your ex-wife?
Come on, Mom. I didn't drag you out like a dog.
You didn't?
I felt so humiliated as I was dragged out in front of Ja Young.
You wouldn't even know.
Gosh, what did I do so wrong?
It's not a big deal.
It's not a big deal?
It sounds like a big deal to me.
Kim Tae Pyung, move out by the end of this month.
Dad, even you're going to be like this?
Who are you to make my wife cry?
How could you mistreat your mother...
while worrying only about your ex-wife?
That wasn't my intention.
Dad, it wasn't like that.
Don't even call me your dad if that's how you'll treat your mother.
Is that how we raised you?
I'm not just saying. Look for a place to move into starting tomorrow,
so you can move out within this month. Understood?
Honey, let's go to our room.
That ungrateful brat.
Let's go in.
What are you going to do now?
This is all your fault.
What? That's ridiculous. Why is it my fault?
Mom visited the dumpling shop in an effort to set you up with him...
when she ran into Ja Young. That's how it all happened.
So it's your fault.
What?
Lie down now.
That's okay. I don't want to lie down anymore.
Anyway,
thank you, honey.
For siding with me.
Of course, I should side with you as your husband.
Who else would I side with?
By the way...
Did you really lash out at Ja Young as Tae Pyung said?
I got so upset when I saw her. I couldn't help it.
I blurted out mean words to her even before I knew.
Goodness, you.
You should tame that temper of yours.
I'll do that.
Why is Great-aunt Myung Sook mad, Mom?
I don't know either.
I think your uncle did something to make her upset.
I've never seen her that mad before.
Did that scare you?
Yes.
I don't want to see them argue again.
It made my heart beat so fast.
Oh, dear.
Come here. I'll give you a hug.
Even grown-ups fight and make up as well from time to time, Him Chan.
So you don't have to be scared.
And I'm always by your side.
You're right. I'm okay as long as I have you by my side.
Let me look at you. Do you feel a little better now?
Yes. I feel much better now thanks to your hug.
Then go brush your teeth.
Okay.
I'm sorry for canceling the plans although it wasn't my intention.
You can treat me to dinner tomorrow.
You're talking like I owe you money or something like that.
Fine. I'll do that.
What are you doing up so late?
I'll have a can of beer before going to bed.
That's good. I was craving beer too.
There. Cheers.
Just drink it. I'm not in the mood for clinking.
Gosh, you wench. Why aren't you in the mood for clinking?
Well, it's because...
my life never goes the way I want it to.
Did you just realize that?
That's life. It never goes as planned.
Is it the same for you?
Of course.
Had my life turned out the way I wanted it to,
I wouldn't be living like this.
I would've remarried a rich man...
and spent as much money as I wanted.
Why? Aren't things going well between you and Mr. Park?
He turned out to be a swindler.
He's in prison right now.
Anyway,
what is it that's not going as you want?
What's the matter?
A man said...
that he would root for me and another man.
What?
That means he's not interested in me, right?
Absolutely. Isn't that obvious?
Wait. Who is this man you're talking about?
Is he the man who is not just an ordinary employee?
And is the other man Director Kang?
How did you figure it all out so easily?
See? Everyone is rooting for you two to end up together.
Then why are you refusing him?
Director Kang's blind date might not have gone so well.
- Listen, Seung Ju. - Enough!
Whatever you say, you can't change my mind.
Mind your own business, and live your own life already.
It's as if I were talking to a wall. It's even worse than that.
Sung Wook, come down for breakfast.
Did you go out to exercise?
Yes.
Hey, Sung Wook,
are you leaving without eating breakfast?
Yes. See you later.
Sung Wook.
Was the girl you met yesterday absolutely not your type?
Pardon?
I heard you didn't even drive her home.
I received a complaint.
Yes, you can say that.
Even so, you shouldn't have parted ways like that.
Words spread so fast these days.
You should always be well-mannered.
Yes, Dad.
What did you not like about her?
Nothing.
It was because I had someone else in my head.
Someone else?
Whom are you talking about?
Why are you staring at Cha Yeol?
I'll get going now.
What's wrong with him?
- I'll be off. - Hey, wait.
Throw this out on your way out.
Do you really have to make me do this on my way to work?
You do it. I don't want the smell to get on my clothes.
It won't get on your clothes.
Gosh, she's so prickly.
I'll get going.
Will you skip breakfast again?
I told you I was going on a hunger strike.
I made a pork cutlet that you like.
I won't eat it. Okay?
Do you really want to take this to the end?
No matter how long you keep going on, I won't even budge.
So stop being stubborn, and eat your breakfast.
Why would you want me to eat if you won't even budge?
What?
Why you little...
I know that you eat lunch at school.
Don't eat anything if you don't want to.
That won't scare me.
Oh, my. Hello.
Oh, hello.
I moved into this unit not long ago.
I see.
I moved here a couple of months ago, but I haven't met you before.
I'm sorry. I should've given you some rice cake as a gift.
That's okay.
I hope we get along well with each other.
Likewise. Have a nice day.
Oh, no. Do you need a hand?
No. That's okay.
Why is my phone ringing right now?
Why don't you...
let me help you, so you can take the call?
Then can you carry the food waste, please?
Oh, this? Sure. Okay.
Hi, Kyung Ae. What's up so early?
Yes.
So? Really?
My gosh. That's amazing. No wonder...
Could you please throw that out for me?
- Well, sure. I'll do that. - Thanks.
That's weird. He looked so familiar.
Do I know him?
Hello?
I'm sorry. So what happened? Go on.
Yes.
The coffee smells nice.
Hi. You're here.
Did you eat dinner alone yesterday?
No, I ate with my family. Why?
I'm relieved. I was a little worried...
if you ate alone because I ditched you.
I'm glad.
You didn't ditch me.
Okay, then.
What are we going to eat for dinner?
What do you want to eat?
Well...
I want to eat meat, sashimi, and lobster.
All those are so expensive.
Of course. This is a rare opportunity.
I should choose something fancy.
Fine. All right. Choose anything you want.
I'm prepared.
Hi, guys.
- Hello. - Hi.
- Hello. - Hello, Ms. Baek.
How's the new season collection coming along?
We're working on it.
Show me the designs you've completed.
I haven't completed any yet.
Jong Min, what about you?
I've designed one pair of pants. I'll show you.
Call Ms. Baek of the design team and tell her to come to my office now.
Yes, sir.
How about the semi-bootcut shape for the hems?
I thought of it as well. Would that be better for this design?
I think so.
Dong Hee, can you answer the phone for me?
Yes, ma'am.
Hello? This is the design team.
Yes.
Got it.
Ms. Baek, Director Kang wants to see you now.
Now?
Yes, right now.
Okay.
Give it some thought. Let's discuss it again later.
Okay.
(Executive Director Kang Sung Wook)
Did you want to see me?
You said it was to focus on your career.
Pardon me? What do you mean by that?
Didn't you reject me because you wanted to focus on your career?
Yes, I did. Why?
But...
I don't think that's the reason.
I don't understand what you're talking about.
I'm talking about Cha Yeol.
Kang Cha Yeol.
What about him?
You said he was your friend.
Yes. Why?
Is he just your friend?
Answer me.
You and Cha Yeol...
Are you two just friends?
No.
No, we're not.
We're not just friends.
Then what?
Are you saying that you two are dating?
Is that what you mean?
I have a crush on him.
What did you say?
I have a crush on Kang Cha Yeol.
You have a one-sided crush on him?
For now.
You know that he's my younger brother, right?
Yes.
That made me even more flustered when you asked me out.
And that's why I said I wouldn't have been there to see you...
if I had known you'd ask me out.
Mr. Kang.
All right.
I understand. Go back to work now.
My feelings for Cha Yeol are genuine.
I told you to leave.
Didn't you hear me?
Understood. Then I'll leave.
(Bravo, My Life)
Cha Yeol, I don't like him.
Hasn't Sung Wook come back yet?
Did something happen to him?
- I have plans. - With Dong Hee?
Let's go.
Order whatever you want since I'm here to treat you.
Then I'll have Course A.
Cha Yeol, when will you accept my heart?
