(Episode 27)
Why aren't you asking me anything?
Because I'm not curious.
You know...
I wanted to forget everything about my past.
I wanted to erase everyone...
that was related to my family.
I wanted to succeed on my own.
That's why I...
cut off Nam Jin.
It seems like...
he likes you a lot.
Am I wrong?
I've never liked him.
Do I deserve to be mocked...
for not accepting his feelings?
I'm in love with someone else.
Just thinking about that man makes my heart flutter.
When I look at him,
my heart skips a beat.
Am I not allowed to be like this?
What's that?
It's Choi Si Woo and Jung Jin Ah.
I can't let Nam Jin see them.
What is it Seung Joo?
Seung Joo. Seung Joo!
Seung Joo, are you okay?
- Yes, I'm okay. - Let me see.
What's this? You're bleeding.
What should I do? Should I take her to the hospital?
No, it was my fault.
You can go.
Would it be okay for me to just go?
- Let me pay for ointment at least. - No, it's okay.
I'm sorry.
Thank you.
I can't move my leg.
Help me straighten my leg.
I said I would go.
You just couldn't wait.
I was going to move to somewhere else.
You should be more careful.
Didn't you see the bicycle?
Whose fault is this? Why are you scolding me?
- Are you blaming me? - Forget it.
Come on.
Can you walk?
- Give me a piggy back ride. - What?
I can't walk another step, so give me a piggy back ride.
All right. Get on my back.
Here you go.
Are you getting used to getting piggy back rides?
Are you sure you don't have to go to the hospital?
I don't have to go the hospital for falling and scraping a knee.
I'm just worried it'll leave a scar.
Bruises go away, but scars remain a long time.
You need to take good care of it so it doesn't scar,
whether it be your heart or your body.
You don't want either to scar.
I hope you don't get the wrong idea.
What I did didn't mean anything.
I won't get the wrong idea.
Don't blame yourself, Mr. Choi.
I won't take it the wrong way.
It didn't mean anything.
Here is my kimchi and tuna stew.
It's my specialty. Ms. Choi.
It looks okay.
Let me tell you about this kimchi and tuna stew.
When I was in China,
it helped me beat my loneliness.
It's okay.
What do you think you're doing?
How could you stick your spoon in it...
even before Ms. Choi tries it?
Ms. Choi can't eat spicy food,
so I tried it first.
It isn't too spicy. You'll be able to eat it.
Is that so?
It isn't bad.
Is he a court lady or what?
Shall we...
have a drink?
Yes, let's.
I'll ask you man to man.
What is your relationship with Ms. Choi?
Ms. Choi and I?
We were hired at the same time.
We've known each other for over 30 years.
30 years?
Are you saying that for 30 years,
you stuck right beside her like gum?
I don't like the way you explained it.
We're just friends who click.
In other words, soulmates.
- Aren't I right? - Of course.
"Soulmates"?
Are you married?
What's wrong with you?
Mr. Lee.
Do you have something against him?
Why are you interrogating him?
It's okay.
He seems to be curious about me.
I'll be glad to answer him.
Am I married, you ask?
No. I've never gotten married before.
- What? Never? - Never.
Not once.
I'm definitely at a disadvantage.
What?
What do you mean?
I...
like...
her.
Hey, are you okay?
Let's play fair and square.
"Fair and square"?
You were...
her soul mate...
and a famous designer.
You may officially be a bachelor.
However,
I'm going to try my best until the end.
You must be drunk. What's wrong with you?
You know what?
My business went under.
My ex-wife divorced me.
I can't even see my one and only daughter.
And I'm living off of Nam Jin.
But my feelings for you...
These feelings...
are very sincere.
I'm more than just confident on how I feel about her.
What's gotten into both of you?
Gosh, I have a headache.
I'm going into my room.
You can drink on.
That's my life.
I thought you couldn't walk. You're walking just fine.
You were scolding me for not being careful,
so I got a bit rebellious.
Go on home. And make sure you put some ointment on it.
Okay.
I'm so proud of you.
What do you mean?
You must've been upset and hurt, but you persevered.
You know what?
If your body gets hurt, you can apply ointment.
But do you know how to heal your heart when it gets hurt?
How?
Through consolation.
"It's okay."
Like this.
You can always let me know if you need my consolation, okay?
Bye.
Why?
Why did you do that?
Are you insane?
If you want some more, let me know.
If you're craving anything, just tell me.
I'll make anything and everything you want.
I'm sorry about what happened yesterday.
I got too furious at Jin Ah...
and I couldn't control myself.
I won't ever go to the company and make a scene.
But still,
I hope you can allow me to bring lunch boxes.
People bond through eating together.
I just wanted Nam Jin to get closer to his team members.
Forbidding me to do that is a bit harsh, isn't it?
Also, let me know if you also want some lunch boxes.
I'll cook some fabulous stuff for you.
I'm fine.
I guess you are sorry.
This doesn't concern you.
I'm talking about what happened yesterday.
- What about yesterday? - How could you do that?
I even texted you, saying that I was bringing a guest.
But you didn't prepare anything.
How could you pass out drunk in broad daylight?
I'm sorry.
I was too drunk that I didn't know you texted me.
Isn't this your phone?
Yes. How do you have it?
It was in the kitchen, so I took it for you.
Yes?
What is it about?
Okay, I'll stop by your office.
- Was that Lawyer Heo? - Yes.
He wanted me to stop by, saying he had something to tell me.
What could it be?
Yesterday night, he called you.
He asked about you,
so I told him you were drunk and sleeping.
What?
You told him I was drunk?
- Yes. - Goodness.
We need to choose our concept for the fashion show first.
Tell me your opinions freely.
I think...
clothes that give off a dynamic vibe...
could signify youth very well.
Right, that sounds nice.
Are you talking about leisure wear or sports outfits?
Yes.
Is that bad?
Such clothes aren't able to have various designs.
So they could all look the same.
Then how about we pick the targets that fit well...
with youth?
Will we focus on the youthful spirit of teenagers...
or the liveliness of the 20s?
Or perhaps the activeness of the 30s?
When you think of the word "youth", which age group do you think of?
For me, it's the teenagers in school uniforms.
That's when you have many dreams and no worries.
- Don't you think? - You're right.
School uniforms sound nice.
- School uniforms? - Yes, those and PE uniforms.
Let's design simple, everyday wear.
That's nice.
School uniforms these days aren't all that comfortable.
It's hard to get rid of stains and dirt on such fabric.
We'll use functional fabric that doesn't stain easily.
It'll be easy to wash and comfortable to wear every day.
Let's make such school uniforms.
If we produce uniforms that are comfortable and trendy,
it'll help with our brand image.
That's it.
Uniforms and PE uniforms.
All students need PE uniforms, so selling them won't be an issue.
Ms. Kim, please look for...
a functional fabric that doesn't stain easily...
and is permeable.
And Mr. Koo, please print out a sales report.
And Mr. Lee, please set us up with sewing and dying factories.
We can start designing it, right?
Yes, let's get to work then.
Okay.
Seo Yeon Ji.
How is the analysis of comparing styles from college campuses going?
I'm not done analyzing the data.
I told you the report is due today.
I'm not asking you to come up with a design.
Why is it taking so long to gather data and analyze it?
I'm sorry.
Finish it before you go home today no matter what.
Hand in your resignation if you can't do it.
Mr. Jang.
What is it?
These common and old-fashioned designs won't work.
We need something that is shouting "youth".
I'm sure you know, but we need something new and trendy.
I can't find either in this design.
I'll consider that.
Doo Pil.
Where is the sales report?
I'm working on the last page.
I just need to do a spell check and I'll brief you.
Ji Young, do you have the list of new materials?
Yes, I'll take it to you after including the special materials.
- Jung Jin Ah. - Yes?
- Did I ask for a thesis? - Excuse me?
You need to come up with details on what we're going to design.
Listing theoretical points like this is meaningless.
- I'm sorry. - Being sorry won't do.
Have you already fallen into mannerism?
This is just the beginning. How could you be so relaxed?
I'm sorry, I'll make some changes and report to you again.
Those of you in this room, listen carefully.
Don't think we can easily beat the other team with a lousy job.
I don't ever do a lousy job.
What is it with Mr. Choi?
Did you drive him too hard?
I didn't say anything.
He's doing a good job on his own.
Jung Jin Ah.
You worked late with Mr. Choi yesterday, right?
Did something happen?
No, nothing happened.
It must have been 30 years ago.
It was when you first joined Hyunkang.
Mr. Ahn's nerves were on edge...
and he yelled at the employees.
He got upset so often we bad-mouthed him...
whenever we got together.
That's right. I remember.
I had no idea back then...
that he was yelling at us because he didn't know what to do...
about his feelings for you.
It's as if you read my mind.
Something seems to be going on between her and Si Woo, right?
How would I know? I was single all my life.
I'm sure I'm right.
Si Woo was like that even when he was young.
He had a crush on a girl...
and he was mean to her.
I asked him why he did that.
He said even if she likes him now,
her feelings for him might change and she might leave him.
He said it was better not to start at all.
Are you saying Si Woo likes Jin Ah?
That can't be.
I don't think I should let this go on.
I'll have to rush Si Woo's wedding.
This is underwear for you, Dad.
This is for you, Mom.
Underwear?
Honey! Dae Sik got his first paycheck...
and bought us underwear.
- I love it. - Goodness.
It'll keep me warm this winter.
- Thank you. - Thank you for the underwear,
but I wish you'd quit your job...
as an eating model on home shopping channels...
and come back home.
I can't do that.
Why not?
Jin Ah is in Seoul.
So what if she's in Seoul?
You said you barely get to see her.
That's why I was thinking...
Could you help me open a store...
near Jin Ah's office?
A store? What kind of store? A restaurant?
No, not a restaurant. A cafe.
A cafe?
I'm a certified barista.
I got my certificate...
when Jin Ah and Nam Jin got theirs.
That's right. It was...
You said it's a license to brew coffee, right?
Remember what you said back then?
You said you can make instant coffee at home...
and asked why anyone would need a license for that?
That's right.
People in Seoul don't drink instant coffee.
Everyone drinks hand-dripped coffee.
If I run a cafe,
I'll get to see Jin Ah every day...
and I can see Yeon Ji every day.
Is Yeon Ji the girl we met yesterday?
Yes.
Fine, I'll think about it.
You haven't quit drinking yet?
I was worried about you...
drinking in secret when the chairman was alive.
Now you don't even try to hide it.
Well...
Ms. Yang was upset about something.
Are you saying you can act as you wish...
because Ms. Yang and Nam Jin treat you like family?
Were you always this thoughtless?
I'm sorry.
Nam Jin is walking on thin ice.
We don't know what will happen...
until the successor of Hyunkang is decided.
Are you going to pass time,
drinking from the bottles hidden in your room?
The chairman was very worried...
that you might be an alcoholic.
Thankfully, you never made a mistake...
and he didn't have to say anything.
An alcoholic? I'm not addicted.
I've been living in a house that's much like a temple,
not being able to hear nor say a thing.
It's just that one drink led to a second and to a third.
Was alcohol the only way to beat your loneliness?
Why didn't you try to learn anything?
I've been living like a ghost for 30 years.
What good would learning anything do for me?
I was happy to have...
Nam Jin's family treat me like a true family.
It's been a while since I had a drink and that was it.
Then why don't you do something...
to repay to the new family you have?
Repay them?
Make Ms. Yang...
as the head lady of the Hyunkang family.
Of course. Si Woo has to get married too.
Do you know an eligible young woman?
It'd be nice if her family has a lot of land or is an investor.
Come in.
Wait a second.
What is it?
Mr. Jang is in a meeting and told me to get your approval.
Wait, I'll be right with you after I hang up.
Yes?
Joosun Construction?
Don't they also build large resorts?
Tell me about the daughter.
She's 26 and majored in violin?
That sounds nice.
All right. Set it up for this weekend.
If Si Woo is okay with it,
I want to hold the engagement this year.
Okay, thank you.
I'm sorry. I'm so busy...
trying to get Si Woo married off.
Let me see that.
That's right. The share transfer form!
You scared me.
Look at this.
My pedicure is all smudged because of you.
If Man Seok gave his shares to Seung Joo,
there must be a share transfer form.
What in the world are you talking about?
It's already in Seung Joo's possession.
Look at this.
What is this?
It's an announcement regarding...
Hyunkang's general stockholders' meeting.
What does this have to do...
with the shares transfer thing?
Are you stupid?
If Man Seok's shares went to Seung Joo,
this should've gone to her instead.
Oh, my. You're right.
What happened?
I'm pretty sure he transferred his shares to her.
I need to find the papers regarding the transfer.
Then do what?
I'll hand it over to Hyunkang's Managing Director Choi...
at an expensive price.
Are you scheming something again?
No. We'll get kicked out.
We won't let Man Seok know.
No is a no.
I'm not getting involved.
Don't you know whom I'm doing this for?
It's all for you.
We'll hand those shares to those who need them.
And we'll spend the money we got and live lavishly.
What if Man Seok finds out?
Tell him you have nothing to do with this.
Then he'll suspect Managing Director Choi.
What do I need to do?
You know where Seung Joo lives, right?
I do.
I just have to sneak in and steal the paperwork.
They wouldn't suspect me.
But how do I get in?
Should I call a locksmith?
But if the guy sees my face...
No, no. That won't do.
Oh, right. Her passcode.
I think I can find it out.
She texted Man Seok her passcode before.
- Bravo! - Bravo?
What's the good news?
Well...
It's good news that you're home.
- Yes, that's right. - Yes.
You're home early.
I ran home immediately to see my beautiful Yeon Sil...
and her troublemaker brother.
I don't cause trouble anymore.
You should wash up. I'll prepare dinner.
- What's the menu? - Kimchi stew.
Did you cook it yourself?
No, I bought it from a store.
I'm sorry. Next time, I'll make it myself.
All right then.
I knew it.
The assignee is empty.
You didn't have to drop me off.
Your father told me to drop you off every time you worked overtime.
I'll be working late every day since we've begun our project.
Does that mean you'll do this every day?
Of course. That's a given.
I'm like a trustworthy brother of yours.
My eyes and shoulders were so sore all day,
but I'm so happy...
that I've found such a reliable brother.
Don't get sick, my sweet, little sister.
You learn quickly.
That's my specialty.
Go on in. It's cold.
Okay. Goodbye.
(It's My Life)
Still, how could you bring her here?
What if she and Mr. Choi run into each other?
It's about Seung Joo.
She's living under the same roof as Mr. Yang.
I heard that you're desperate for the shares...
my brother-in-law has.
We've met before, right?
Will we be okay?
Can we really do a fashion contest with just school uniforms?
Once I put my mind to it, nothing is impossible.
