Do as you're told and quit!
Mom. You suddenly changed your mind,
and I don't see why.
Why don't you see it?
I'm glad you said it, Jung Im.
I didn't like what you've been doing for a long time.
Your mom has been supporting you for so long.
And you immature thing are overjoyed that you sold a few lipsticks.
How much did you make?
Just a few cents, a few dollars at most.
You said the factory charges you extra...
if you make just a few at a time.
It cost you so much to make them.
You're always doing people's makeup for free calling it "talent donation,"
so there's no way you can charge the full price.
Also, how much did you spend to get the patent?
The money you made working part-time was barely enough, wasn't it?
Yes, you're right.
But still...
You have no right to say "but still."
You can't even make excuses.
- Mom. - Anyway,
I managed to wait for you so far, but I've had enough.
Mom...
Now... There we go.
There we go.
It's perfect.
You're an adult.
You can no longer...
do just what you want and enjoy life.
Your mom smiled and said it's fine like the good-natured person she is.
She fainted, didn't she?
Moms look fine on the outside,
but they rot away on the inside because of their kids.
All moms are sick and tired.
She did enough by raising you so far. Where's your conscience?
Auntie.
Anyway,
I said all I had to say and it's final.
Making a parent sigh as they wonder how much longer...
they must support their adult child.
That's the worst thing you can do.
The best thing you can do for your parents...
is to make money so they don't have to worry about it.
Okay?
Yes.
(Episode 30)
Se Na.
Why are you out here?
The moon looked so pretty, so I made a wish.
What are you looking at so intently?
Do you know this feeling?
My name was on the most-searched keyword list all day,
and everyone's talking about me and they all say nice things.
People I don't know cheer for me.
The posts are for PR and they're all lies,
but they make me feel so good.
I'm so pleased and happy.
I feel like I'm floating on a cloud.
I can't believe it, so I keep reading it.
Everyone in the whole world seems to like me...
and seems to root for me.
I know it's not true, but I like it.
Shall we have a drink?
Wasn't that great fun?
I want to have crazy fun...
before I become too well-known.
Okay, do all you want.
Don't tell Jin Woo about today.
Prosecutors keep secrets, right?
Yes, I can keep a secret.
I'm sorry, Sol.
Right now, what your great-aunt said will hurt,
but this was the best I could do.
I feel so worried and anxious.
That you'll meet Kang Chi Hwan.
The more successful you are, the sooner he'll find you.
You might find out the truth and get hurt beyond recovery.
That scares me more than anything.
Here we go.
Everything's ready. We have cold...
makgeolli on the table.
I am...
not happy at all.
Are you happy, Yi Chang?
What if...
I hadn't married then,
and instead...
waited for you?
You heard the rumor, then.
Yes. He toured the manufacturing facility...
and decided to invest right then.
You got convinced before I even said a word.
Yes. You won't regret it.
I won't just make you richer.
The least she could do was lie about being sick.
She stood me up like that and didn't even call to apologize.
What a witch.
Did you sleep well?
I got off work late yesterday.
Are you upset I didn't call?
Shall we meet today?
Oh, no.
What is it, honey?
Mom, what's wrong?
Jin Woo's... Oh, my gosh.
What's the matter?
How could you do this to me?
I said you can't date Se Na.
Are you dating behind our backs? Is that it?
What? You are dating Se Na?
- No. - Then what's all this?
Why would she send you stuff like that if you're not dating?
What did she send him?
She sent a selfie in her nightgown...
as if she'd just woken up with her lips...
sticking out like this and she sent heart emojis too.
You're not dating?
Then what's this? Is she crazy?
Why is she filming a romcom?
You shouldn't lead people on.
Are you weighing your options?
Darling, is our Jin Woo the type to do that?
Actually,
Se Na...
asked me out.
See? What did I tell you?
I said he thinks they're like family but she doesn't. I knew it.
Is she obsessed with you? Is she stalking you?
Oh, it's not like that.
I'll see her today...
and tell her how I feel.
Okay, yes.
Talk to her nicely so she doesn't feel hurt.
Honey, you should worry about Jin Woo first.
Wouldn't it hurt more to be rejected than to reject?
Throwing yourself at someone who doesn't want you is violence too.
Jin Woo has to feel bad when he did nothing wrong.
You don't have to, okay?
This is unbelievable.
They're not even dating and she sent him...
a selfie in her pajamas sticking her lips out?
Is Mi Kang not teaching her daughter how to behave?
But then, what could a messed-up mom teach her daughter?
Her mom has no manners.
- Honey... - Mom.
- You don't have to... - Don't.
I think they had another huge fight.
- Again? - Yes.
I'd like to track someone down.
Where they live now and what they do.
Mom.
Did you see the posts online?
- What's online? - Don't you know I'm huge?
Why are you so distracted these days?
- How dare you say... - Mom.
Why aren't you focusing on me these days?
Do you even care at all?
Do you know how far Dad's going for me?
It's beyond my imagination.
He showers me with so much love I'm in awe.
That's what Dad's doing, so what about you?
This is the most important time of my life. Focus.
Okay.
I think I'll become real busy soon.
I need to watch my intake.
Tell Ms. Oh to prepare my meals like an expert dietitian.
I feel uncomfortable around her, so you tell her.
Okay, I will.
I think I need a personal trainer that specializes in...
working with celebrities.
I don't want to make the same silly mistake again.
I want to do this perfectly.
Will you support me fully?
I will.
Oh, right. Darn it.
Yes, I need to be busy. Being bored is doing this to me.
Don't give myself time to think.
- Ms. Oh. - My gosh. What is it?
Yes, miss.
My team of stylists will visit today.
To check my wardrobe and accessories.
Display my stuff and focus on the designer labels.
Okay.
She'll make the whole house serve her.
I wonder how much of a fuss this will become.
- Ms. Oh! - Yes, Miss Se Na.
Se Na shot down every clothing concept I suggested.
We'll use the stuff she has.
She has such incredible taste and she's so picky too.
I put together the filming and editing team,
but I'm worried about how the shoot will go.
Why? She seemed confident.
She says she'll manage on her own,
but she's never done anything in front of a camera.
Our team can't handle her.
She'll only eat up their time.
What should we do, then?
I'll hire an experienced YouTuber to help in the early stages.
Tips on how to keep a conversation going...
and what to do when she's stuck should help massively.
That's smart, Ms. Cho. Do you have anyone in mind?
I think I was flustered at first,
and then I felt miserable.
But I thought about it,
and I understand how Mom feels too.
Why she wants you to give up...
is surprisingly sudden.
We'll need to talk about that.
Here's how I stand.
Your great-aunt mentioned our financial situation,
and for that, I'm sorry.
Don't be, Dad.
If I'd brought home a regular paycheck as the man of the house,
she wouldn't have said that to you.
I'm still young and healthy.
If you were to give up on your dream or compromise for money,
I think I'd feel ashamed and guilty for the rest of my life.
It's special and rare to find something that makes your heart beat faster.
Everyone faces trials and errors, and you're at that age.
And despite all that, you did so well so far.
Dad.
You didn't give us a hard time when you hit puberty.
You studied hard when you had to, and you were hard-working.
And you always put me and Mom first.
I felt sorry for you.
You don't have to do that with your dream as well.
I'll ask Mom why she wants you to give it all up.
She delivered food to the makeup factory in the morning,
and she bragged so much about how the head researcher praised you.
I have a plan too.
I'll make it so you don't have to worry about finances.
Don't mind that part, okay?
Oh, right.
National Anthem texted me.
- What? - He asked how Mom was,
and said he saw your show.
He was too busy...
reciting the national anthem to notice back then,
but he said the show made him realize how serious you are about what you do.
He learned a lot from you.
Did you see all the posts on the program's site?
There are values and emotions that can't be calculated in dollars.
That's what you gave the people.
Mom and Dad are so proud of you.
Okay?
Okay.
Oh, Mom doesn't know National Anthem texted. So hush.
Hello?
What? Shine Cosmetics?
I'm Cho Hee Young with the TF Team.
You're Tinker Bell, right?
I called because I liked your YouTube videos.
Yes, thank you.
Oh, yes. Of course.
They're here.
Welcome. We were waiting for you.
You two are too jealous.
You couldn't stand hearing I'm swimming in cash,
so you rushed over to join me?
I can stand anything but that.
Your stocks went up yet again today.
Yes. We haven't even launched our new brand yet, and it's taking off.
Once that launches, it could go up 10 times or even 100. No one knows.
That's what business is.
There. It's done.
Thank you.
I'll do my best.
Welcome.
I'm Park Rim, Shine's head makeup artist.
I'm Min Yoo Jung, the stylist.
Please take good care of my Se Na.
Go on upstairs.
Okay, thanks.
Hi, what's up?
Jeon Mi Kang. You can't do that to people, okay?
I'm busy right now.
Hey, darn you!
What about me and my time?
Aren't I busy?
She's the best cure for low blood pressure.
I don't believe it. My neck's going stiff.
Wait. Are my hands and feet no longer cold?
My body's heating up with fury.
How dare she?
Jeon Mi Kang. You want to fight me?
I can't exactly take her to court.
What should I do to feel better?
How can I put her in her place?
I can't stand this!
Let's be busy.
I must stay busy.
Auntie, I wanted to take you out somewhere.
I was passing by.
What's the matter?
You mentioned your sore legs,
so I got you something.
I asked around and everyone says these shoes are so comfy.
Why did you waste money when my shoes are just fine?
These are the best for people who are always on their feet.
I bought them as a gift.
Did you?
Do you want something to drink? Grape juice?
Yes, I like that.
Okay.
Try them on and see if they fit.
Thanks.
My word. They're nice and comfy.
Your strategy worked wonders.
The public took pity on her,
and are rooting for her thanks to the image of her working hard...
to become a model despite her background.
Nothing beats public sentiment.
That's why businesses care so much about reviews.
We'll ride on the momentum to launch Se Na's vlog.
We'll make her look friendly and familiar,
and get people to imagine they're her.
We'll post something every day.
Good. And contact the World Beauty Festival people...
and say we'll become an official sponsor.
That will go way over our budget.
The whole world's showing interest in K-beauty.
At the upcoming World Beauty Festival,
not just our new brand SENA,
but Shine Cosmetics must be the center of attention.
Yes, sir,
but the free samples already took us over the budget.
It must be done, even if it costs us.
SENA needs an aggressive marketing policy.
Don't you see how thirsty everyone is?
We must push ahead stronger and harder.
Yes, sir.
Do you know that since you became CEO of Shine Cosmetics,
you got even sexier?
You smell nice too.
I'm proud of you.
Bottom's up.
Wait and see.
I'll make you say you married the right man.
Shine Cosmetics' tenth anniversary ceremony will be nothing.
This event will be the one that showcases...
my prowess.
Mom, I got a call from Shine Cosmetics.
It's a cosmetics company in Seoul and it's quite big.
They didn't call because they need a makeup artist,
but you never know how things will turn out.
I'll prepare as best I can and become someone they need.
When can I return National Anthem's handkerchief?
Shall I return it when I'm in Seoul?
Hurry up.
You're leaving already?
We're making dinner. Why not stay and join us?
No, thanks. Goodbye.
Let's say we ate. Bye.
Mom.
How do I look?
Why did they rush off?
How do I look?
Did you not invite them to dinner?
I asked them to make me look so good no one can take their eyes off me.
From head to toe.
But I didn't like anything they did.
So I passed on each look...
until they did this, which I liked.
So I said okay to this,
and they suddenly packed up and rushed off.
Were they busy?
I'll get ready to go out.
Where are you going?
To see Jin Woo.
- Jin Woo? - It's a date.
Oh, Mom, can I not come home tonight?
What? Are you out of your mind?
- Serve the course I ordered. - Yes, sir.
Jin Woo. Is it a yes or a no?
Se Na.
Is it... a no?
- Let's eat before... - I hate beating around the bush.
Say it as it is.
I'll take it as it is.
I tried to come up with an opening as I drove here.
You're right. I should say it as it is.
- My feelings... - Wait.
Don't be long-winded.
Don't use flowery language or embellish.
Skip all the excuses including our parents...
and speak only for yourself as Ha Jin Woo, okay?
I'm ready to hear it. Go ahead.
I was...
an older brother to you.
Everyone used to say we were like siblings.
I'm an only child and so are you,
so I treated you like a sister, and acted like a brother.
That's how it was for me.
What about the Christmas Eve we spent together?
It wasn't just you and me.
My theater club went to entertain some orphans,
and you joined the after-party.
I was there as your girlfriend.
Everyone there thought we were a couple.
You know they didn't.
Then you should've told me not to come.
Do you remember how many times you called that day?
I don't.
Our parents have been friends for years,
and you and I are like siblings...
Stop saying we're like siblings. We aren't.
How are we siblings?
You're right. I guess we should've had this talk long ago.
I'm glad we can have it now.
I'll be even more honest.
Do you remember Hae In?
Who?
(Meant to be)
You're scared.
That you'll lose me suddenly like you did Hae In.
I'll give you some time.
It just seems meant to be.
Sol is a blessed kid.
Leave the rest to Dad and focus on your thing.
- Okay? - Okay.
Jin Woo, what did you do to my Se Na?
Jeon Mi Kang!
I got you at last. Just you wait.
