Miss Go.
Yes, President.
Let's close for the day.
Yes, President.
You know that we have the interview with the magazine this week, right?
Yes, President.
Change all the clothes on the mannequins.
Yes, President.
You scared me.
Hello.
Hi Ga Young.
What happened to you face?
Miss Go. Go take care of your work.
Yes, President.
It's been awhile.
Yes. It's been awhile.
What's wrong with your face?
Did someone hit you?
Yes.
You really are a pain.
I've heard... that you got kicked out of school too?
You must feel you've been wronged since it was so difficult for you to get in.
But who can you blame?
You only have yourself to blame.
Okay...what business brings you here?
Do you still have unfinished business with me?
I'm going to stay with you for awhile.
Oh my world...
I have never seen such a presumptuous girl like you.
You walked out of here on your own two feet... how dare you walk back in here?
I have never walked out of here on my own.
You're still the same with how you always insist on talking back.
And I...
A girl like you who has a messy life with a man...
and on top of that, being involved with a criminal and being deported...
the fact that you even walked here is not okay with me.
If you really don't like me being here... then why don't you lend me some money?
There's that money talk again.
Is there any money that you left in my care?
How is it that you ask for money whenever you see me?
You should know better than anyone else why I'm doing this?
What would I know?
What are you saying that I know?
You know what your problem is?
You have no sincerity.
Even if I had the heart to want to help you... you make that thought disappear.
Do you understand what that means?
So...
You're saying that you won't lend it to me?
Then you leave me no choice.
I won't inconvenience you too long... so don't worry.
Miss Go!
Report her to the police for unauthorized trespassing.
I'm sure the reporters will love it.
Since you provided them with some newsworthy story.
Has he ever even brought any meat during the holidays,
or even tube of toothpaste?
He never even shows his face and what gall does he have to crawl back here?
After quitting school and he started wearing around those garbs talking about fashion,
I knew he'd be like this.
I can't even lift my head around the neighborhood out of humiliation.
How can he humiliate the household like this?
He is just like his mother!
How did I humiliate the family?
We don't even have anything for me to humiliate!!
Of course, it's humiliating!
Is jail something to be proud of?
What have you done well to be screaming about?!
If you went to America, you should've found your mom and lived off of her.
Why did you come to my house,
and asking to be fed while laying around your cousins' room?
Who are you saying has been asking for food?
-I'll pay you for the room and board! -That's not the problem!
It's hard enough to keep my family fed,
do you know how I've suffered trying to take care of your sick younger sibling?!
When it comes to your family, I'm so sick and tired of you all!
Then you...
You didn't take that sick child once to the hospital and made her die?!
What did you say?
Are you saying that she died because of me?! Huh?!
Then...who told you to leave home and leave your sister behind?
Your bitch of a mother runs away to America with her fling,
and that father of yours left his kids to me to find her, never to be heard from again!
And you, who left home saying that you were going to earn money...
How could I have taken care of her when I had to work from morning 'til night?!
If you were that worried about your sister, you should've came to see her sooner.
And now, you're trying to blame everything on your aunt?!
Take this...and buy yourself some meat, and some toothpaste to use.
I'm the crazy one for coming here.
Young Gul!
Young Gul. Make lots of money.
You have to make lots, and lots of money, and make sure to come back to get me.
This looks good.
What happened to you?
You know you shouldn't be here!
Il Gook and that woman were causing a storm looking all over for you!
Hey you bastard...while my female employee was getting beat up like that...
you just stood there and watched?
-You..were there? -Yeah, you bastard.
I can't believe you were there.
You should be the one to save your own employee, why are you saying this to me?
Hey...I felt horrible seeing her being kicked out after getting even her bags taken away.
-Do you know where she is? -How would I know that, you idiot?
What the...you ate all my noodles... I'm so starving...!
Give me your cell phone.
Make it quick.
Il Gook?
I know, I know!
Tell your boss that I'm coming right now.
But you have to grant me one request.
What? Are you not happy with these either?
It's not that I'm unhappy with it...
Hello.
Is this Jung Jae Hyuk's cell phone?
Yes, it is.
Hello. This is Lee Ga Young.
Who?
Lee Ga Young.
The one came to see you because of problems with the school in New York...
Oh! Yeah!
And?
I have something I wanted to discuss with you in person.
Are you in Seoul?
Yes.
If it's a problem with the school... there's nothing more I can do for you.
I didn't call you because of that problem.
-There's something I've prepared. -I'm a little busy.
You are?
Then, can I at least have your email address?
Is this the number where I can reach you?
Yes.
I'll call you when I get some time.
Okay.
I'm sorry for bothering you when you're busy.
Goodbye then.
Who was it?
Someone I know.
Where were we?
Should I re-do it or not?
I don't know...
We can't fail again.
Okay. I'll do it again.
Hey...I'm pretty busy... but how about tonight?
Yes, that's right.
I guess you can say like mother, like daughter?
My daughter is majoring in fashion at a fashion school in New York.
Did you study fashion in New York too?
I'm sorry for interrupting.
I'm in middle of the interview right now.
I'm going to go out for a bit.
Okay, go ahead.
Please give me some money for the cab fare.
How much do you need?
$10 should be fine.
Thank you.
By any chance, is that outfit your creation too?
-Yes... -The outfit is so pretty!
Thank you.
You didn't know?
Yes, sir!
It wasn't love either?
Yes, sir!
Then it was just enjoyment?
You're saying you just enjoyed my woman, right?
No. It's not, it's not like that.
How dare you! You bastard!
Where did you hide away your girlfriend?
She's not...she's not my girlfriend.
I have no idea where she is.
You don't know that either?
You don't know anything, but women keep chasing you?
Black bean noodles are here!
Put it down here.
-Is the business going well? -Yes.
Enjoy your meal.
I've been repenting a lot.
How can I pay back the pain I've caused you even 1%...no, .01%?
Hurry up and mix it.
Yes, sir.
While catching fish in the Pacific Ocean,
and even while living on the run while I was in New York,
even inside the jail... what is it that I could do for you?
That's all I've been thinking about these past couple years.
Even Manager Jang knows how much I love you!
Don't you? Manager Jang?
Manager Jang.
Yes, sir?
Cut him.
What are you doing? I told you to cut him!
Have you been well?
Stop! Stop!
Sir...sir! There's something I have to show you.
Jang...Il Gook. Get out the piece of paper from my pocket.
Open that up and show it to the boss.
What is this?
The clothes that the model is wearing in that picture...
is a coat that I made.
So?
In that world-renowned designer, Michael J's fashion show,
a world-renowned model came out wearing a coat that I made.
So?
Why would the coat that I made appear in the world renowned Michael J's fashion show?
That means my design has become popular all over the word.
What are you blabbering about?
Do you know how much those people earn a year by selling a single piece of clothing?
On the small scale... several hundred thousand.
In a larger scale...several billion!
Fashion is where you can earn the type of money that you have never even dreamed of!
How can I trust that you were the one... that made this coat?
I can call that guy Michael right now,
and I can prove that everything I've told you until now is the truth...
but as you well know, I've experienced a lot of trouble lately, and in the process...
have lost his business card.
I'm sure...I can find out what Michael's phone number is...
But the one that's even more important then Michael right now is...J Group...
You know J Group, right? J Group's successor, the Prince of the group.
That Jung Jae Hyuk is my friend.
Isn't that right, Il Gook?
That's correct, sir.
So?
Michael...and Jung Jae Hyuk.
And when all of my talent is added, and synergy is created...
That billion...it's no longer a dream, sir!
So?
If you'll let this go once... I'll do everything I can,
and earn you a large sum of money!
How?
If you'll give me one week's time, I'll get things rolling and come see you again.
Wow...that feels good.
Hey, friend.
I'm asking this because listening to you, I feel like we can earn that billion dollars...
Do you have something planned?
Plan, my butt.
Hey...you don't have any plans at all?
Did you look into what I asked?
Oh yeah, your girlfriend's whereabouts. Here.
She's living in a really fancy boutique.
My boys really suffered to find this out.
Have...you been well?
Well...It hasn't been bad.
I know you've helped out with so many things...
I'm sorry for having left without even properly thanking you.
I don't need thanks like that.
So...what is it that you want to show me?
What do you think?
I designed this outfit.
Should I walk over again?
No, it's okay. Sit down.
I didn't have a whole lot of fabric... so I didn't get quite what I pictured...
but if I had the proper fabric and material, it'll change the mood of it a lot.
Is that all?
Yes. This is everything I have to show you today.
Are you... going to show me one at a time like this?
That's not it.
I want to show you other things too...
But before I can show you that... I have to pay back a debt first.
It's not my debt.
My belongings are being held as a guarantee right now...
and when I get that back, I can show them to you then.
By any chance, if you want to see them now...
If you can lend me some money, you can see them sooner.
So...what is it that you want?
Are you asking me to pay your debt for you?
That's not exactly what I mean.
I've thought about it a lot, and there are several options.
You can give me an advance on the samples...
Or...you could think of it as placing an advance order and give me the contract fee.
That's pretty much the same thing.
Is it?
Drink some water.
Yes.
You want another one?
No.
How much do you need?
Excuse me?
Thank you.
Then, I'll wait for your call.
Goodbye.
Get in.
-No, I'm fine. -I said, get in.
Where do I need to take you?
Chongdamdong.
Jo Boutique?
Yes.
Are you staying where you used to?
Yes.
Since you've been back from the states... is that where you've been staying?
No, that's not it.
Don't you have anywhere else to go?
Then...where...where is your stuff?
In Dongdaemun.
Where in Dongdaemun?
Where...I used to live.
Kang Young Gul's factory?
Thank you for your time today.
Goodbye.
Where should I take you?
-To your home, or... -Take me home.
I understand.
Why were you in Jung Jae Hyuk's car?
He gave me a ride on his way home.
Were you out meeting with Jung Jae Hyuk?
Yes.
So that you can meet him...you borrowed cab fare money and got all decked out?
Why did you see him?
It's nothing.
It's nothing?
It's something.
For someone like Jung Jae Hyuk to be meeting up with someone like you.
But you...
Isn't that my fabric?
I made it with the leftover fabric that you threw away.
Just listen to you.
Why do you mean, I threw it away?
That's imported.
It's fabric that you can't find even if you wanted to domestically.
I didn't know. Sorry.
You think that's the end of it?
Take it off.
-Excuse me? -Why are you just staring?
I told you to take it off.
And you...
You must have some money left over if Jae Hyuk brought you home.
You have to give me back the change.
How much is the change?
Young Gul.
What the hell is this now?
Will this do?
Lee Ga Young.
Are you going to keep staying here?
No.
Let's go then.
I heard you got beat up.
You think that's because of me, right?
No, I don't.
But why were you hanging around the factory?
Are you demonstrating something to me?
Are you asking me to take responsibility,
since you got kicked out of school because of me?
That's why you were hanging around there on purpose, right?
So that I can see you and feel awful about it.
It's not like that.
And you...
Who's factory is that?
Is it your factory?
No.
Then why did you tell them you'd bring the money, and leave your stuff there?
What's your relationship with Jung Jae Hyuk?
Excuse me?
Are you two dating?
What are you talking about?
Then why do you keep seeing that bastard?
I was trying to get an order.
You really are funny.
Why would you try to get an order? Are you the President?
Hey.
You think I'd be grateful then?
Get your stuff.
Yes.
You haven't had any meat since you've been in the states, right?
From now on, I'll feed it to you everyday.
For the new future of Kang Young Gul and Lee Ga Young.
Hey...why do you keep carrying around this tacky little thing?
Are you all dressed?
Yes.
Let's go.
Even though he's a country bumpkin, he's very good at his business.
Learn some business from him.
And learn what is it that the customers want by having direct contact with them.
A real designer can't be all about just making good clothes.
I true designer means making clothes that sells really well.
Work hard.
Please take care of me.
Ah yes.
Is it going well?
Yes, Director.
There are a lot of expectations because you're from a designer brand background.
Yes.
But there's no need for you to get too nervous.
Just do it comfortably.
It's a lost cause anyway.
Yes.
The chairman has entered the room.
-Oh my...you're all working very hard. -Chairman.
What are you doing here on your day off?
I just stopped by for a moment... don't mind me, and get on with your work.
Oh yes. What are you doing? Everyone, start cleaning up.
I heard your parents are divorced?
Yes.
And you have one older sister who's married.
Yes.
Then who raised you?
I was raised in my grandmother's house out in the country.
And your grandmother has passed away?
Yes.
Do you keep in touch with your parents?
No.
Are you thinking of getting married... to Jae Hyuk?
I know that... it's not a marriage that you want.
Then...what were you thinking when you followed Jae Hyuk here?
Because I love him.
Is that right?
What's good today?
I designed this outfit.
You could give me the sample fee as an advance. Or...
You can think of it as placing it order, and give me a contract fee...
What is it that you want?
Are you asking me to pay back your debt?
It's not my debt.
My belongings are being held as a guarantee...
Kang Young Gul's factory?
President Jo!
What?!
Jung Jae Hyuk is here.
Jung Jae Hyuk?
What are you doing? Escort him in here right now!
-Hello. -Oh my...Mr. Jung.
How long has it been?
Wow...you've become even more handsome.
Actually, with all that you've done for Jung Ah,
I was planning on coming to see you.
Have a seat over here.
No. I came to see Lee Ga Young for a moment.
Is she here right now?
Lee Ga Young?
Ah, Ga Young...
How unbelievable.
It's a long story. Why don't you have a seat?
Miss Go. Bring out some tea.
The Earl Grey tea that I brought back from the London fashion show.
Yes.
Have a seat.
But...what do you want to see Ga Young about?
Did she make some sort of a mistake towards you?
Ah...no, she didn't.
That's a relief then.
My goodness...
I'm...someone who thinks a woman should be innocent and clean.
That's why my design concept is white and innocent.
Anyways...
That night...that rainy day... you brought her back here, right?
But as soon as she walked in here from your car...
Some guy who looked like a beggar off the street, that was bleeding all over,
came to get her.
But as soon as she saw that filthy beggar, she said "President"....
and walked out with him hand in hand.
I mean...why would she grab her boss' hand? It's not like she works at a gentleman's bar.
I was so flabbergasted.
Anyways...
Since that day, I haven't heard from her.
Even though I didn't give birth to her, but I still raised her as if she was my own.
I don't know how she could do this to me?
I heard you loud and clear.
Then...I'll be going now.
The tea isn't even served yet.
Goodbye.
Have some tea...
You're home.
Have you been out exercising?
Ahjumma*, warm up that herbal tea. (*Aunt/middle-aged woman)
Yes, Madame.
Just what is going on with you?!
How can you not come home once when you've been back for so long?
What are you going to do about that girl?
What are you doing renting her a house?!
Are you saying you're going to marry her or something?!
Let's not humiliate ourselves like this.
What?
What was that? What did you say?
I don't even want to say it with my own mouth because it's so petty.
So just go home.
What did I do?
It's not something a CEO should be doing.
I'm your mother before I'm a CEO.
Then is this okay for a mother to do?
Then what is there I can't do as your mom?
If you keep being like this, I'm going to go register our marriage!
So just keep that in mind!
Are you...threatening me right now?
I'm your son... why wouldn't I be able to do it?
Director Kim got this especially for you.
It's mountain ginseng, antlers from Russia, and seal from Canada...
Ahjumma. If you're done cleaning, let's go.
Yes, Madame.
Make sure to take the herbal tea medicine.
And don't skip breakfast.
Welcome. What can I help you with?
I came to get a small business loan.
Have a seat.
How much do you need?
$40,000.
May I see your Identification card?
You haven't had any transactions recently?
Ah, yes...I have been overseas for awhile.
Do you have a guarantee?
No, I don't.
Without a guarantee, it's difficult.
By any chance, do you know who Michael is?
Excuse me? Who?
This is...clothing that I designed.
Okay...
This is a world renowned fashion show.
You know New York Fashion Week, right?
-I'm thinking of exporting too... -Come back with a guarantee.
How about $10,000?
-Welcome. -Look here.
I heard $70 million dollars in grants were released for small business loans,
and they're offering support for export. Where's all that money going to?
You have to credit history.
Is someone like me supposed to be screwed for the rest of my life then?
Will you move, please?
Have a seat.
Lady, come take a look. You don't have to buy, okay?
You just need to come take a look.
Lady, come take a look.
You can't pull together $40,000?
$40,000 my butt.
I told you I can pay you back right away, as soon as I get in touch with Michael.
Just hand over Ga Young to me.
You said she's not even your girlfriend.
I'm not joking.
Hey.
That woman is here again.
I wonder if she is an official with her being here so often?
Wow...she looks so beautiful today too.
Hey...it's her.
Come here and take a look. She's killer.
Hurry up and come.
Where? Where?
How pretty is she?
Over there.
An Na?
Hello. It's me, Kang Young Gul... From New York...
Hello.
There's a place I know nearby... We can go there...
Isn't An Na so very pretty?
I hope you grow up to be cool and pretty like An Na.
Move, move!
There's something I'm curious about...
Michael showed my clothes in his show.
What about it?
Then how do we calculate the pay?
Do I get paid as a designer, or a percentage of what he sells?
That all depends on the contract.
Which way do you think is better?
Ask Michael.
What if Michael backs out?
If by any chance, he pretends not to know you, you can call me.
Thank you, An Na.
I was really unsure of how I was going to get in touch with Michael.
but don't you think it's really a miracle?
I mean, you were standing right there...!
Wow..this really is fate.
The thought that you are my life's benefactor came into my head.
Not just in New York, but in Seoul, and in Dongdaemun of all places!
With that thought, let's cheers.
But...
How much...does someone like Michael make in a year?
Why?
There was something Michael said to me.
That I can earn up to a billion dollars a year as long as I can get into the Chinese market.
I'm sure you could.
Why did you quit such a good company like that and come back here?
Are you getting a better salary?
How much is the salary at a place like that?
You have a lot of interest in money.
Are there people uninterested in money?
Even though they do have interest... there's no one who's obsessed like you.
Is it a compliment...or an insult?
Rather than the hypocrites who pretend that they're not like that...
You're much more honest...and cute.
Cute...
How old are you, An Na?
I was born in '86.
You're the same age as me.
You succeeded at a young age.
For that, let's cheers.
Even though...
Even though I'm not from a designer background,
I still have over 10 years of experience sitting behind the sewing machine.
As soon as I see the fabric, I know where it needs to be stitched and darted to look good.
Even when the wholesalers put their orders in with me, they send it all through a fax,
without even having seen me.
Why? Because they trust me.
Even the world renowned designer Michael,
saw that in me at a first glance, and put my clothes in his collection.
Must be nice.
Having Michael's respect.
What?
I said, it must be nice.
That he noticed you with one glance.
When he wouldn't even glance at me... even though I worked my butt off for years.
When I was young...
I thought that everything would work out as long as I worked hard.
Hey...
You're still young.
Really?
What about you?
Have you ever felt despair... to the point where you wanted to die?
No, I haven't.
I have.
Let's drink.
You know something?
What?
You're...really attractive.
Really?
Hey.
The phone is turned off, and you are being transferred to the voicemail.
Hey, how do I do this?
An Na. An Na. How do I do this?
Oh yeah, it's not me.
I really am a genius.
So heavy.
So heavy!
Nice house.
The way she kept eating...
You. What are you doing here?
----
Send him away.
I don't want it to work like that.
Are you still working under Kang Young Gul?
I'm saying I'm about to give Lee Ga Young a chance.
-Does that bastard like you? -Excuse me?
This isn't bad.
Who's idea is it to work like this?
Did you only learn things like this from Kang Young Gul?
What are you doing here?
Do you want to move in together?
I can't go there. You go there.
He doesn't like me. And I don't like him either.
But you can bear it.
Are you really going to be like this?!
I know, that you want to do well.
Do you like this?
I'm saying we should make a fashion brand.
Let's make one then.
What do you think about Young-Young?
It's a combination of both our names.
