It's okay.
It's okay now.
I'll ask again.
How much do you know about your superior?
I really don't know anything.
If you don't, how did you manage to calm him so soon?
My mother did that for me when I got scared as a kid, so...
What is my son afraid of?
Was it the reporter?
I think it was the camera's flash.
When that started to go off, Mr. Oh suddenly...
He got anxious and had to struggle to breathe.
The camera's flash?
- Did he say anything else? - No.
Then, did something similar happen...
during the investor briefing?
He doesn't like small or enclosed spaces.
Why keep the door open?
To run in case you try to catch me.
You and I are the only two in the whole company...
who know that Seo Jin is sick.
Please keep it a secret.
How does it feel to be back?
How you feel is more important.
How am I?
How should I put it?
I can see you hit rock bottom.
You can?
You're not like you used to be.
I like how you now know to wait and be patient.
Thank you. I owe it all to you.
Do you get on well with the rest of the cast?
I guess I am much older now.
I should learn to deal with it.
Hyun Jung upset you?
How do you know?
That's her strength, you see.
You must have pride to stand out on stage.
Try to be positive about it.
Consider it your strength.
I do. I do think of it like that.
Wait here for a bit.
Hi, it's me.
Practice just ended and the director praised me.
She did? Congratulations.
You got kicked this way and that and survived it all.
Only good things will happen now.
Let's celebrate over a drink.
Why even bother?
Okay.
Let's talk again.
Bye.
I'm crazy. Why did I call him?
Old habits do die hard.
He's the first I think of when I have good news.
Gosh.
Master, what are you doing here?
Did the director go out?
She won't be long.
What brings you here?
I'm here to discuss something with her.
I saw you practice and you looked pretty good.
You saw me?
I'm just one of many. How great could I look?
That's why you're great.
You talk like that but you do your best.
I didn't think that someone with a huge ego like you,
would be so passionate.
There's something I'd really love to know.
Can I ask you a question?
What do you want to ask me?
To be honest, am I...
Are you what?
Am I...
much better than Hyun Jung?
Don't I have the better voice?
Do you know you're very shallow?
Of all the people I met so far, none of them were as shallow...
but straightforward as you.
So you don't like that of me?
So you're cute.
No one's ever called me cute before.
They all used to call me sexy.
I was sick of it.
What's making Master Sagong laughing out loud?
What did you say?
Something incredulous that I had to laugh.
Making an outrageous comment to avoid the situation...
is one of her charms.
We're off to dinner. Will you join us?
Am I allowed to?
You can, it's about work.
Come with us.
Shall I then?
Men love to spend more than women when they get old.
He never wasted a dollar and he called a home shopping channel?
I can't believe what's going on.
What did he get?
Hello.
You're staying late today?
I'll leave soon.
Are you still upset about yesterday?
Isn't it a relief that the thieves...
didn't take any of the merchandise?
I think something's wrong with my phone.
I can't find any records of you calling me.
Have a look.
Forget it.
If you came to make excuses, get out.
Bok Nam, I'm really sorry.
I'll be more careful from now on.
Hello?
None of the cars can get in or out because of yours.
How could you park like this and fasten the hand brake?
Gosh, I'm so sorry.
I'll move my car now.
Hello? Hello?
What's the matter?
I went to pick up some goods...
and completely forgot about where I'd parked my car.
Oh, did you?
It's all your fault.
You didn't watch my store,
so I was out of my mind.
What?
How could you say that?
Say I forgot about yesterday.
You can't blame your mistakes on me too.
Fine, forget about it. Drop it.
But... Bok Nam.
This is unbelievable.
Bok Nam. Bok Nam.
It's not here. I don't get it.
- What's wrong? - Let's find out.
I treated him with respect and helped him out,
so how could he treat me like this?
It's just unbelievable.
- Who do you mean? - Jin Ok's husband.
I just don't believe it.
Bok Nam? What about him?
He said he called me yesterday to ask me to watch his store.
But I never got the call.
He blamed me for the fact that his store was robbed yesterday.
- Robbed? - Robbed?
He only lost some small change.
I went through my call history...
to prove my innocence. Look.
There's no record of us talking yesterday.
It's so annoying.
He must've got things a bit muddled up.
You're much younger. Don't try to convince him you're innocent.
I'm not trying to convince him. It's just unfair.
He insists he called when he didn't.
Life is unfair when you think about it.
You're younger so give into him.
Do as Mom said.
You two got along fine until now.
Yes, Dad. Dae Young tutors us too.
That's why I did give into him in the end.
He must be getting forgetful though. He parked where he shouldn't have...
and blamed that on me too.
What? Is he demented or something?
How could he blame you for that?
Exactly. I was so good to him.
Let's just eat dinner.
I'll eat and cheer up.
What's this?
Hey. What's this?
You bought something from a home shopping channel.
I did?
Would I order such things?
The tag has your name on it.
"Kim Bok Nam"?
My goodness. I don't believe it.
You're acting so out of character. How embarrassing.
Did you buy that for me?
I didn't buy it.
Okay, fine.
How much did you pay for it?
Get your hands off it. Let me see.
It looks like it cost quite a lot.
If you wanted to buy underwear you should've asked me first.
The color and design doesn't suit me at all.
Return it tomorrow.
Running an unfamiliar business on my own...
must be making me a bit weird.
Eat your dinner.
How odd.
What? You're going to produce a musical?
I haven't decided yet but...
I'm in discussions with Director Park.
You're a school teacher.
He'll have to quit once it's finalized.
You dreamed of being in music too?
His grandfather and father taught so many apprentices.
"Seopyeonje" could go into production right away.
Gosh, not that.
I'm not good enough yet.
So, how is my delinquent apprentice doing?
Is she managing okay?
Like I said earlier,
you've relaxed a whole lot.
It wasn't your voice that was the issue.
The issue was the arrogance, technique and power in your voice.
You had to get rid of all that.
From now on, don't try to add things to your voice.
Try to take things out.
Okay, I will.
The reason I fired you from the ensemble and...
sent you to Master Sagong...
was so he could strip you of all that.
Then...
the way you treated me was all deliberate?
I apologize.
But it wasn't all planned from the start.
I was most worried when I fired you...
from the ensemble.
Would you join another production team?
Would you quit musicals forever?
Or would you go to Master Sagong?
When you first came to see me,
Director Park was the happiest person alive.
Were you?
Thank you, director.
Visit Master Sagong every now and then...
and get some real vocal training.
Okay, I will.
She was overjoyed that her director praised her,
so why's her phone off?
She was kicked around here and there recently.
Well done, Mi Rae.
I wanted to celebrate over a drink.
Thanks a lot, master.
Thanks to you, Director Park commended me.
I think she cares a lot about you.
I wish she showed that every now and then.
Do you know how upset I was?
I bet I shed enough tears to fill a bucket.
That's what Director Park's like.
Thanks a lot for giving me a ride home.
I'll see you again soon then.
Sure. Goodbye.
(Nam Mi Rae)
Hello?
I called back because you called many times.
Who is this?
It's me.
Joon Ho?
I said I got another phone. I told you to save the number.
I said I won't.
Why should I save the number of a phone you keep in secret?
If I were to save the number...
it would look like we're having an affair.
Okay, fine.
I was pleased to hear that your director praised you,
so I wanted to celebrate over a drink.
Thanks a lot. Maybe next time.
Bye.
(Song Joo, 40 missed calls)
40?
I'm home.
Why didn't you answer your phone?
I was so worried.
Were you?
I put my phone on silent at work and didn't know you had called.
You didn't drink, did you?
- I just came from the clinic. - I know.
I ran you a bath. Go and wash.
I'll just brush my teeth. I'm tired.
You can't, you must bathe.
Why?
Today is that day.
That day?
What day?
Honey.
I'm sorry, Song Joo.
I'm in no mood for it tonight.
Do you need to be in a mood to try to make a baby?
We talked about it last time. We decided to wait a year.
We can't. I want a baby.
I don't trust you.
Why don't you trust me? What did I do?
You don't know?
Yes, I don't.
You always doubt and suffocate me,
and it's too much.
I doubt you for a reason.
I called you over 40 times today.
Why didn't you answer?
40 calls?
I put my phone aside because you keep suspecting me.
I ignored your calls and everyone else's too.
Okay. I won't suspect or doubt you anymore.
Will you hug me tonight?
I said I'm not in the mood tonight.
Joon Ho. Joon Ho.
You sneaky thing. Song Joo took your phone.
It's not connected.
It only has messenger.
If you can use wi-fi and messenger apps,
it's as good as a phone.
That's...
right I guess.
You punk.
Give your mom a call tomorrow.
- Why? - She finally got a role.
Her director praised her today.
- Really? - Yes.
How stressed out do you think she was...
that she called me to brag about being complimented?
Okay.
Hey.
Shall Dad sleep with you tonight?
No way.
There's no need to balk.
I'll get the lights. Go to sleep.
Okay. Goodnight.
You shouldn't have left in the middle of the night.
Everything we did just made you feel worse.
We're fine. Don't mind us.
It's really your kimchi.
Of course it's mine. I made it.
Mom, you don't have to do this anymore.
It's too much when you work full-time too.
We actually ordered kimchi from a home shopping network.
Why do that when you could've called me?
You people just love the home shopping network.
Your dad's buying things from it too.
Dad? Really? What did he buy?
I don't know if he bought it for me,
but he got women's underwear.
Women's underwear?
I told him to return it...
because there's no way I'm wearing it.
Why would you return something...
Dad must've agonized over?
Can't you just wear it for his sake?
It has to fit.
He doesn't even know what size underwear he wears.
Would he know my size?
And the blotchy colors...
You wear it beneath everything else.
Really fashionable people wear great underwear.
It makes you feel better.
At least try it on.
Then he might buy you more.
You belittle all the efforts he makes for you.
That's why he became so indifferent.
Even if it doesn't fit, say it looks lovely and try it on.
I don't believe this.
I bet you'll like it too.
A new pair of underwear can change how you feel.
I put a cast on his arm so he could put on a show.
I'm so ashamed about that.
I'm sorry.
You did it hoping that my parents would reconcile.
That's true,
but I ended up making things worse and I feel terrible.
Things can't get any better or any worse.
They were like this all along.
To be honest, I want my parents to get a divorce.
Dae Young.
Dad will never change.
He'll shout at and mock Mom until he dies.
Mom should live in comfort for once in her life.
She works now.
Mom's part of the reason why I decided to...
go back to medical school.
You decided to go back?
I'll become a doctor so Mom can live in comfort.
She'd be pleased to hear that.
I bet the shock knocked the wind out of her.
But she still raised me so well.
What do you mean?
It's nothing. Don't worry too much about my parents.
- I should go. - Okay.
What was that about?
"The shock knocked the wind out of her,"
"but she still raised me so well"?
What does he mean?
How can you be so irresponsible?
You disappear and ignore your phone all the time.
What is this?
If something's wrong, call me.
You're the one who told me...
time and time again how important this meeting is.
Okay, okay. Do you have everything?
- Yes. - Let's go.
The price doesn't work.
However great the quality is, you won't sell any at this price.
Somi released a similar product.
Ours is much better quality...
and packaged as a gift set.
A gift set?
There's nothing special about a cosmetics gift set.
What company doesn't have a few?
It's not that kind of gift set.
Then what?
Our set isn't at all like the kind...
made up of a toner and cream.
Instead of going to an expert,
you can give yourself a facial care at home.
It's a home-care set.
A home-care set?
Very well.
But only experts like us know if a product is effective.
The customers can't tell until they try it.
What should we work on then?
Lower the price.
In average stores,
you won't last.
It's never-ending.
We got something different but now it's the price.
We used expensive ingredients against my mother's will.
We can't lower the price.
- What should we do? - I don't know.
Let's find a way.
You'll know when you get here.
You must look good.
We'll take photos so wear something photogenic.
Get here quick.
Okay, bye.
You used to visit a few times a day.
Why didn't you come by at all today?
My visits only cause more misunderstandings.
Is it because I complained about the robbery?
I was upset for a good enough reason, wasn't I?
Even if you were upset,
who'd want to be your friend...
if you blame others for your own mistakes?
I'm sorry about that.
My wife scolds me a lot...
because of my temper but I just can't control it.
Can you understand?
How about we have a drink after work today?
- Come on. - Hello, Mr. Tak.
Hey, you're here.
It's so good to see you.
How was the tennis tournament? Did it go well?
Yes, thanks to you. Your wife's not here yet?
- She's on her way. - Okay.
We make kimchi to hand out to the less fortunate.
Come and take some photos for us.
Sure, I will.
- Thanks a lot. Sit down. - Okay.
Did you have a long day?
Do you want a beer?
Was it that upsetting?
Yes, it would be.
It's not like we're related or anything,
and he still treated me so well and respectfully.
And I yelled at him.
Smile more. Cuter and brighter.
That's it. Make a heart.
Yes, that's it. Good.
This is definitely worth an article.
What did I tell you?
Isn't it unique that her husband's a district council member?
She was a housewife her whole life until she became a singer.
Right.
There must be a reason.
How did she debut?
She went along to our daughter's audition...
and helped out a bit.
The agency called to say they wanted her but not our kid.
Hey.
Really? Take this.
Ma'am, if there's anything you want to say, go ahead.
Do you have to write about how I went to...
my daughter's audition and all that?
Of course.
Readers nowadays...
are more interested in that than what you're doing.
Are there any other anecdotes?
Your dream as a child or favorite song.
Tell me anything.
Yes, go ahead. Talk to him.
He must miss having his phone.
Why hasn't he asked for it?
He must be up to something.
- Dong Hyun, dinner's ready. - Okay.
Why won't you ask for your phone back?
I don't really need it. Give it back if you want.
I caught you, Dong Hyun.
What do you mean?
Your generation can't live without your phone.
The look in your eyes, your attitude.
Something's going on.
I don't know what it is,
but you have something that can replace your phone.
What are you talking about?
I don't.
You don't? Then can I search your room?
You can't deceive me.
Tell me the truth and I'll forgive you.
I know I'm extra strict to you.
That's because I think of you as my own.
If you want, I won't interfere anymore.
Instead of cooking for you like this,
I'll just give you bread like your mom did, let you eat tteokbokki,
and give you your phone.
That would be much easier for me.
Shall we just give up on everything and do that?
No. I'm sorry.
What did you do?
What's this? Did you get a new phone?
No.
A friend gave me an unused phone.
It does everything but make calls.
Games too?
- Yes. - Do other kids do this?
Of course.
Everyone has a spare phone on them.
Will you give me my phone back?
Fine. Thanks for telling me the truth.
Now don't skip classes to go to internet cafes.
If I catch you again, I'll cancel your phone for good.
Okay.
Yes.
He got a new phone to use in secret.
Director, I'm going home.
- Okay, bye. - Bye.
It's me.
Let's have the drink we didn't yesterday.
Yes.
Yes. Where should we meet?
Come to the bar we used to go to.
See you.
Cheers.
(Lady Cha Dalrae's Lover)
I apologize. I'll treat you to a drink after work.
You can be nice sometimes.
Song Joo, I married you because we had an affair,
but I'm not a serial cheater like you take me for.
I want to live happily with you for a long time.
Seeing me in the paper proves I'm really a singer.
It does. Oh Dal Sook, Tak Heo Se's wife.
