(Episode 40)
Se Rin, why are you so startled?
It's nothing.
What does this outfit have to do with the first personality?
As you've read from the scenario,
the heroine gets in a shocking accident...
at the party her friends threw her.
What would she have felt then?
What were you like in middle school?
What do you think, Bo Mi? I'm taking it to the art contest.
You painted it so well.
You're a genius painter!
You'll win the contest again.
Really?
I should keep drawing it.
Eun Jo, I cannot let you win it again.
Se Rin.
What are you doing?
Ha Ra.
Please don't tell anyone.
If Eun Jo knows about it, I could be kicked out of her house.
What can you do for me if I keep it a secret?
I'll do anything. Please.
You'll do anything?
Then, be my maid.
You have to do everything I tell you.
Have you ever betrayed a friend?
What kind of crap are you pulling?
Ha Ra.
Ha Ra, what are you doing to Ms. Hwang?
Let go of her!
Ga Heun, what do you know to bring up betrayal in front of me?
How much are you digging up about me?
Why are you so agitated?
Ha Ra, stop.
Get off of me!
Oh, my goodness.
How did it look so similar?
Eun Jo's bridal shower occurred to me the second I saw that dress.
I almost passed out.
That's just a common party dress.
When she asked you if you've ever betrayed a friend,
I almost went insane.
Imagine how worse it was in my head.
We'll be arguing every day because of the costumes from now on.
She made me improvise with a syringe at the audition,
and I threw up after I acted it.
A syringe?
Are you serious?
No way.
Do you think Ga Heun is doing it because she knows what she did?
How would she know? That was between the two of us.
It's a mere coincidence.
The audition was the director's idea, anyway.
Ha Ra, are you really going to wear that dress?
She said it's the outfit for the first shoot.
Are you crazy?
I'll never wear it.
Se Rin, you can make it again.
Make a new dress that won't remind me of Eun Jo.
Don't you still have to wear it if she declines...
the dress I designed?
The lead role says she'll never wear it in her life.
What can she do about that?
Ha Ra, that wench.
She was mean at school, too. She's never changed.
Why did you help me earlier?
Mrs. Oh is your friend.
She's not my friend.
They would never have been my friends if it weren't for Eun Jo.
When she grabbed you by the collar,
it felt like Eun Jo was being grabbed.
Thank you for taking my side.
Why are you smiling like that again?
You're reminding me of Eun Jo.
Actually,
there's a secret note Eun Jo and I wrote in this room.
Do you want to see it?
There it is!
(Ko Eun Jo and Cha Bo Mi's dreams will come true!)
Eun Jo wanted to be a designer,
and I wanted to be a make-up artist.
We promised each other and wrote this.
Bo Mi, our dreams came true.
You see, I don't become friends with anyone.
But do you want to be friends?
I don't become friends with anyone, either.
But I'll be your friend.
What is going on?
Where are they taking all those flowers?
Director Oh ordered them for Chief Hwang.
Is that so?
It seems Ha Jun wants to tell the whole company.
- This way, please. - Okay.
He's so silly when it comes to expressing his love.
I guess he takes after me.
Gosh.
We must hurry up with their engagement.
I never switched girls.
I'm devoted to one person only! That's me.
Did you order all of these to impress Chief Hwang?
You can't be surprised yet.
Cake.
Macarons.
Cookies.
I didn't know what she'd like, so I got all of them.
It's a feast of desserts.
I'm sure she'll be thrilled when she sees this.
And the last special present.
Toothbrush.
Neck pillow.
Cushion.
And these slippers. How pretty.
- Are those matching items? - Are those matching items?
What are all these?
It seems Director Oh wants to show people that he's dating Chief Hwang.
What's wrong with that? I heard they all do that at first.
Manager Cha, I'll let you have a macaron...
to celebrate our relationship.
Talk to me.
We're at work.
I'll pass if it's not about work.
Are you going to date Director Oh?
You said you wanted me to love again.
That's not love.
You're lying to yourself.
If you're doing it on purpose to show me, you should stop.
Do you think I'm pretending to like Director Oh?
Chief Hwang. Where have you been?
Have you been waiting for me?
Your shoe is untied.
You're a boyfriend that needs a lot of work.
"Boyfriend"?
Chief Hwang, I have something to show you.
Come with me.
I didn't know what you liked, so I got all of them.
When did you...
Chief Hwang, are you two really dating?
Why?
What do you mean, "Why"?
Does it seem wrong that we're dating?
It's just that you don't seem to deserve her.
You're right about that.
I'll try harder to deserve her, so wait and see.
You're a boyfriend that needs a lot of work.
The matching items are set.
Next, I should decide on how to address her.
Chief Hwang and Director Oh sound too formal.
She will call me Ha Jun.
What should I call her?
Ga Heun?
Honey?
Baby?
It's making me crazy.
You're a boyfriend that needs a lot of care.
She does things that make my heart flutter.
By the way, why was Manager Cha there?
She and I would've been alone without him.
To celebrate our relationship,
I should give out something to the employees.
I'm calling from Jewang Group.
Can I get 200 tonkatsu delivered...
to the cafeteria in Jewang Group?
Yes.
Crispy tonkatsu made with love is delivered.
- Come on in. - Okay.
- Thank you. - Enjoy.
- Thanks for the food. - Thank you.
- I hope you enjoy it. - Thank you.
Thank you.
It fills my whole mouth.
Director Oh is treating us to celebrate his relationship.
It even has cheese in it.
- Director Oh chose the right dish. - I know.
Here. Enjoy.
Ms. Park, start talking.
How long has it been going on?
How long have you been feeding her information like a rat?
Mother, how could you say that?
Ms. Park has been working for us for decades.
Are you saying it's been going on for decades?
That's not true.
I'm not that close to Vice President Geum.
Tell me the truth.
How much did you get paid for being a tattletale?
Right.
Your brother got in trouble,
so you were on edge.
Did she take care of it for you?
Yes, I did.
I felt terrible and pitiful for her.
She's right.
I was so thankful for that.
So, I just tipped her off about Mr. Oh.
Vice President Geum was so concerned.
Ha Jun almost caused a scandal that he was two-timing.
I couldn't sleep.
You two got your story straight.
You'd better not do this again.
I'll kick both of you out.
You seem infuriated.
What did she catch you doing?
Are you here to pick a fight with me again?
I'm in a bad mood, so cut it out.
No way.
It seems like you want to pick a fight, not me.
Why do you want to set me up with Se Rin?
I don't. You engaged with her.
You're the one who went on a date with her.
Two adults voluntarily had a date.
It's natural to think they have feelings for each other.
Since when were you so interested in me?
You're so active in getting me engaged.
You don't want to accept it,
but I'm still your mother.
Isn't it perfectly normal that I'm interested...
in my son's engagement?
Step-mom, you don't want to tire yourself of an arranged marriage.
That's why you're dumping me to Se Rin.
Let me tell you. I take care of my marriage.
It's none of your business.
You can't decide on your marriage by yourself.
Do you think I'd let you marry anyone?
Especially, I'll never approve of Chief Hwang.
We never know what Hwang Ji Na is up to.
Do you really think Chief Hwang is sincerely into you?
What?
As you already know,
she's a handful.
Her mother is a tycoon in investing.
What give you the idea that she's that dumb...
to date a person on the blacklist in finance like you?
Chief Hwang chose you...
to take over Jewang Group.
She's using you.
Or you tried to use me, and it didn't work out?
You don't think I know why you want Se Rin and me to be together?
You will make us get married and push me away from being the successor.
What?
I do need Chief Hwang to be the successor.
Do you know what my life's goal is?
To hinder you from your goal...
of handing Jewang Group over to Ha Ra.
You know Chief Hwang would never let Ha Ra take her things away.
If you get my point, I'm going to go.
Get some cold water and wake up.
That little...
Chief Hwang is using me?
If so, I'll let her do it all she wants.
I like her. I don't mind it.
Hoon, did you see my girlfriend who came over here?
You know her, too, right?
Byeol's lady?
"Byeol's lady"?
I shouldn't have said it.
She's my secret friend.
Your secret friend?
Are you friends with her in secret?
Yes. She and I are friends who paint together.
Don't tell Mom, okay?
Mom hates her.
Of course, I won't.
I have fun when she plays with me.
She made me marshmallow skewers when we went camping.
Look at this, Uncle.
She went camping?
Dongdaemun Queen, did you think about the costumes for the movie?
I need a design for a party dress.
What?
You won't wear my dress?
Ju Se Rin, did you retouch my designs or not?
How does she know that?
Is she just feeling me out?
What do you mean?
I don't know what you're talking about.
You'll play innocent?
Send me a copy of the designs.
I need to check if you retouched them.
That way, we can make the next deal.
She wants me to send her a copy?
Ridiculous.
I paid you a lot of money. I can do whatever I want with it.
Yes. I modified the designs. So what?
Just because you designed something,
you can't tell a designer to send you a copy of her specification sheet.
I thought we were friends.
As we are, you should trust me.
Get lost.
What? Did she leave the chat again?
Is she sulking?
What should I tell Ha Ra now?
It's driving me crazy.
Oh Ha Ra,
I'm going to make sure you can't decline my dress.
(In an art room at school, there's a cake full of candles.)
Why don't they add up?
Why doesn't it come off?
Darn it.
Mrs. Bae,
come and sit here.
How about some tea time?
How about soju?
All right. Good.
Let me drink a glass.
- It's a misunderstanding. - That's a misunderstanding.
What's a misunderstanding? Go ahead.
I saw you and Mr. Ju...
having fun...
and laughing together.
We were not laughing together.
I was smiling for him.
What do you mean?
You were forcing yourself to smile?
What should I have done, then?
I was rushing to prepare the chicken, and Mr. Ju was babbling so much.
"Babbling"?
I can imagine.
You mean you don't like Mr. Ju at all.
Of course, I don't.
By the way,
what did you want to clear up?
I can't tell you when I'm sober.
Actually,
I think I have a crush...
on Tae Sik.
What?
I mean, a while ago,
I went up to Tae Sik with a bucket of salt...
after seeing what he did to you.
During then, I tripped...
and fell right onto Tae Sik's chest.
Oh, my gosh!
That's not all.
There was this one time...
I fell asleep on this table,
and Tae Sik came in to recite...
his poem...
about the dishwasher and everything.
My gosh. He recited a poem for you?
Actually, what happened was...
Let's forget it.
I can't say that Tae Sik mistook me for her...
until the day I die.
And this other day, he came in,
and you know...
this heavy bag of onions?
He casually put that heavy bag...
on his shoulder.
When I saw him putting it on his shoulder,
my gosh.
I must've been possessed.
He couldn't...
look...
any more handsome.
Oh, gosh.
I guess that's what happens when you fall for someone.
I know. I don't know...
what I'm doing at this age.
What about our age?
It's not a sin to love.
Right?
It's not a sin, right?
Then, let's drink to that. Cheers.
Cheers!
It's not a sin.
If you bring the two million dollars to Deok Gyu, he'll give it to Tae Sik.
And tell Vice President Geum to send the second investment.
Yes, ma'am.
Tae Sik has learned the taste of money,
and Eun Hwa is investing in the movie for her daughter.
Now,
there's no place for them to run away on the set.
Those two million dollars will come back to us as investment for the movie.
Yes.
Tae Sik will have to pay Eun Hwa back without laying a hand on that money.
He'll try to get his hands on Eun Hwa's money once again.
Then,
he'll fall into a pit he can't crawl out of.
With Tae Sik's greed, Eun Hwa's secret money will turn into nothing.
That would cause problems...
when trying to secure shares for the next company's successor.
Greed calls for more greed.
To do so,
shouldn't we find out the amount of secret money Eun Hwa has?
We should.
Congratulations, Mr. Ju. It's two million dollars.
Really? This soon?
It was true.
She promised to return twice the investment. How lucky I am!
Look forward to the next investment.
It's only a matter of time until you become a nobleman.
A nobleman? Yes! This is insane.
Thank you.
You and I both
Go through life
Mr. Ju, is there a good occasion?
There is.
Look at it.
Madam Black...
really raised my money by twice as much.
Really?
Gosh, it's true.
Mr. Ju, your luck with money...
Never mind.
Vice President Geum is...
coming to get the two million dollars of debt incurred by Ms. Ju's fur coat.
You could just hand this in instead of the boxes.
What? She's coming to get the two million dollars now?
You had it ready.
Vice President Geum ordered to have the two million dollars paid right away.
Wait, my money.
Mr. Ju, are you okay?
Mr. Na,
I must have had another dream.
The two million dollars have been wiped away.
My head.
It just flew away before I got a chance to use any.
Take it easy, Mr. Ju. At least you repaid a million dollars.
Then,
I have to fill in for another million dollars?
By playing more tricks?
It's 1.1 million dollars including Ms. Ju's.
Mother, what are you saying?
What do you mean by "change my design"? You had it confirmed!
You said you'd push the executive members...
so that I can win the first competition,
and that you'd have me engaged with Ha Jun after that.
Look how you've started to talk back to me.
I'm sorry.
But this is absolutely ridiculous.
That's what I was aiming for as well,
but because of the word of Ha Jun dating Ga Heun spread out,
the executive members have switched sides to President Han.
At this rate,
Ga Heun will take first place whatever she comes up with.
Even more,
she designed it to appear more practical this time.
We should at least get the branch managers' votes,
but Ga Heun has her hands on them.
What do I do, then? You were all I was relying on.
You should have won Ha Jun's heart!
And it's the same with your design draft.
I took your design...
and asked for feedback from Mr. Gong first.
He pointed out...
the same things I did, saying that the design seemed unbalanced.
You showed Mr. Gong?
Yes!
Do you know...
how hard I tried to see him for your design?
So, start over!
If you can stop...
Chief Hwang's design from appearing in the show, do so.
Why did you make me come?
Wouldn't it be better than me going over to your house?
You didn't seem happy that I'm dating Director Oh, either.
You do know.
We'll have to see how long you two stay together.
What do you want?
The script has been changed.
It's the first scene we'll be shooting.
"There's a cake full of candles."
"X's friends cover her eyes..."
"and pull her toward the cake."
"X is wearing a pink dress and a coronet of flowers..."
So,
are you telling me to wear that pink dress I saw in the classroom?
Yes. That's what the writer wants.
No. I will not wear that dress.
I don't like that dress.
Se Rin will make my costume.
The contract will be breached, then.
What did you say?
There are plenty of actresses who want to take part in this movie.
If you want to cancel the contract, go ahead.
How will the contract be canceled just because I won't wear that dress?
Check the special condition in the contract.
I saw that you signed it yourself.
The two million dollars for the second investment have been wired.
Then, three million dollars have been invested in total.
Well done.
Mom,
what is the special condition in my contract?
Special condition?
Right.
The part where you'll agree to any changes in the script.
Back then,
you agreed, saying that Director Choi doesn't decide on an ending at first.
I was referring to the ending!
How is it okay to change the script all of a sudden?
You make sure this can't happen.
Or I quit.
Look at you.
How will I be able to stop that?
I just invested three million dollars in total today.
Movie investment isn't some child's play.
I can't blow off three million dollars just over your whim.
I have a meeting to go to.
Chief, the samples came out very nicely.
We'll have a good score at the show.
The branch managers will be surprised too.
Store the samples in storage.
Right.
Also, this.
Okay, I'll take them.
Hello?
I sent you an email yesterday.
There's no way Dongdaemun Queen would make me another design.
I just need to get rid of Ga Heun's.
Can you check?
Yes, I'll wait.
Did you check it?
I just need to get rid of that dress.
Okay.
Those clothes were heading to the storage room, right?
Yes. They'll be stored there until the show.
Is this the master key to the storage room?
Yes. But why do you ask?
I'll have to destroy everything.
The clothes we saw earlier.
Burn all of them.
What did you say? Burn them all?
I can never wear that dress.
It'll remind me of Eun Jo.
I'll go crazy acting in that dress.
You'll have to win the launching competition, too.
But why should we burn them?
We might as well get rid of Ga Heun, too.
Blame the fire on her, Se Rin.
I'm going to go now and tell her that I'll try the dress,
so you go and start the fire in the meantime.
That way, we can blame it on Ga Heun.
Okay.
I can't lose to Ga Heun, either.
If I lose again, I'll be completely going out of Mother and Father's favor.
What are you waiting for? Go now.
The lock is broken. I might get trapped inside.
I should tell Chief Hwang about it.
Yes, Ms. Baek.
Okay.
The lock is broken?
Okay. I'll be careful.
Hello?
The urgent matter which made her cancel our market research...
was going camping?
With Manger Cha, Hoon, and her.
Why is she so close to Manager Cha?
Gosh, Ha Jun. What are you thinking?
It's not like I can ask or not ask. This is driving me crazy.
Wait. I'm her boyfriend. Why can't I ask?
Yes, there's a fire in the storage room.
Please hurry!
(General Manager Cha Sun Hyuk)
Are you saying you'll come for me anytime I want?
Will you always be there for me when I'm having a hard time?
Yes.
If you want, I'll do that.
No.
I shouldn't answer his call.
(General Manager Cha Sun Hyuk)
(Miss Monte-Cristo)
Don't worry. I have the security footage for the storage room.
Mother, how did you know I started the fire?
You should've cleaned things up if you meant to do it.
I aimed for luxurious and high quality.
But what happened to Chief Hwang's samples?
Don't leave me like my mom did, Chief Hwang.
I'll die along, too.
You had a little brother, Chief Hwang?
I'm Chief Hwang's boyfriend. I hope we get along.
I don't want to. I have a brother-in-law.
Ga Heun.
This is absurd.
