(Episode 47)
Mom.
You shouldn't have to come.
Why did you bother?
I don't trust your eye for people.
- Grandma! - Oh, my!
Oh, my. My dearest and sweetest Da Bin!
- Grandma. - Yes, yes.
You such a sweet thing.
Grandma, how have you been?
Not good.
I didn't do well.
I missed you so much that I have sore eyes.
I didn't do well.
Your eyes?
Don't cry.
Goodness, you are so adorable.
You dearest thing.
My goodness, you two. You're so loud.
What are you saying? You are even louder.
Don't you think?
I'm so happy to see you, my little Da Bin.
My sweet grandchild.
- Did you miss me? - Yes.
Where is Jin Soo?
- He's off to work. - Already?
Did he run away before I came?
What do you...
He didn't come home last night.
What? Why didn't he come home?
His close colleague's dad passed away yesterday.
So he went to his funeral with all employees.
And he said he will go to work right from there.
Why would he stay up all night at the funeral?
He must've drunk and unburdened himself.
Men, they always have an excuse for everything.
You are so cute.
- She must be here. - What?
Yes, I'm coming!
You are here.
Hello.
You came right on time.
I must come on time.
I should prepare her to go to kindergarten.
She is my mom.
She was worried about Da Bin, so she came.
There's nothing to be worried about.
I understand her.
Elders tend to worry a lot.
Hello, I'm Lee Jeong Sook.
Hello, I'm Da Bin's grandma.
My mom raised Da Bin for six years.
I see.
She must have many worries.
Hello, Da Bin.
We met the last time.
Yes, welcome.
Gosh. You are so adorable.
I guess this is why people want to raise a daughter.
Then, Ms. Lee.
Please take good care of Da Bin.
I gave her breakfast.
You can change her clothes...
and get her on the school bus.
All right. Don't worry and go to work.
Mom, I'm leaving.
Don't meddle in too much.
All right, I'll take care of it. Just go to work.
Da Bin, see you later.
Be a good girl.
- Yes. See you later, Mom. - Okay.
- Goodbye. - See you later.
Da Bin.
Oh, my!
You are still wearing your pajamas.
Did you wash your face and brush your teeth?
No, I have to do that now.
Then do you want to do them with your auntie?
"Auntie"?
Do you want me to call you that?
Why? Does that sound strange to you?
Because I already have two aunties at Grandma's.
Am I right, Grandma?
What? Yes, yes.
Then let's go to the bathroom.
Let's go to the bathroom.
Kyung Jin.
Thank you so much. I feel so relieved now.
What? Is she starting from today?
Yes, from this morning.
Isn't she great?
Yes, she seems so nice.
That's why you look great today.
Is it that obvious?
Mi Sun, did you finally find a babysitter?
Yes, Kyung Jin introduced a babysitter.
Good for you.
I heard it's hard to find a babysitter these days.
- You're right. - But...
Mi Sun, did you know?
There're many babysitters who abuse children lately.
So people are installing security cameras a lot.
Haven't you watched TV?
- Hey, watch what you say. - Hey!
Don't ruin it.
Would I have introduced someone like that to her?
This babysitter is a very amazing person.
She has already raised three children well,
and there was no...
What is your problem?
She is so popular that it wasn't easy to bring her.
How dare you.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, Mi Sun.
Don't be. I know you said that out of concern.
Why would you give her...
a hard time at this early hour?
Whenever I say something, she always ruins,
talks back, and messes things up.
When did I ruin, talk back, and mess things up?
Did you hear that? She's talking back again.
That's enough.
Hey, do you know that corner place?
Come and see me there during the lunch break.
Forget it.
The lunch is on me. Will it settle everything?
Are you sure?
Naengmyeon and dumplings. How about that? Deal?
Deal.
Deal, also.
I'm just going to...
- Keep it up, everyone. - Keep it up.
Now, you're all dressed.
Let's comb your hair now.
- All right. - Sit down, Princess.
Just leave it. That's my job.
Well... Okay.
Well, it's what I've done every day.
But now it's my job.
You can take a rest now.
Well, okay.
By the way,
how old are you?
I'm 52 years old.
I have two daughters and a son.
I got married at a young age,
so my youngest child went to college when I was 42.
I raised kids who lived next door...
for about seven years.
I see.
But the family suddenly went to live abroad,
so I got a job here.
I see.
Do ask me if you have any more questions.
Well,
I heard you do housework too.
Though I won't be able to do grocery shopping,
I'll help Da Bin prepare her materials,
give her snacks,
do the simple house cleaning,
and wash the dishes.
I see.
Still, it won't be as satisfying as your care.
You must've gone through a lot.
All right, it's done.
Stand up now, Da Bin.
- Someone's here. - No, it's okay.
I'll go. Please sit back down.
Goodness.
- Oh, hello. - Goodness.
You came early.
- How have you been? - Good, thank you.
Have you been well?
Yes, I have been well.
- Da Bin, Grandpa's here. - Grandpa.
Goodness, my pumpkin.
Oh, right.
We should introduce each other.
But you look younger than I expected.
I'm her grandpa.
I see.
Come here, honey.
We should say hello to each other.
She's Da Bin's grandma.
Hello.
We heard it's your first day today,
so we came to say hello.
I should've come to say hello first.
Please don't say that.
You'll look after our precious granddaughter.
We should come to greet you first.
We live right next building.
Oh, really?
Now that you're here,
please take good care of Da Bin.
Don't worry.
And come visit the house...
whenever you miss her.
I see.
You look kind and warm-hearted.
Thank you.
I'm so relieved.
Da Bin, from now on,
listen to her and be a good girl.
- Okay. - Good.
Then...
what did I mean to you?
I mean,
what do you want me...
to be from now on?
Mr. Kim, how's the concept of the commercial going?
Does it target the existing customers?
Yes, and thus, the concept won't be so different...
from the existing TV commercials.
Good.
How's the viral marketing going?
Well, Ji Soo and I are contacting...
social media celebrities and popular mobile apps.
The video production has just started too.
Try to contact personal broadcasting too.
We can sponsor our products to fashion...
or health broadcastings for natural marketing.
Having them make videos about our products...
might be a good idea too.
I see.
When will the final samples be ready?
To progress things according to the plan,
we better hurry.
Right.
Mr. Kim and I will visit the factory tomorrow.
I see.
Then I'll go.
Well, sir.
She and I will go.
There's no need for you to go.
Why would you go?
It's far and a hassle. You have to work overtime.
You're all working hard,
so I should do something too.
I still have a lot to learn,
so let me.
No, there's no need to.
I need to go check...
whether it's been produced properly myself.
Then accompany me.
Will that make you feel uncomfortable?
No, sir.
Let's end our meeting here.
Good work, everyone.
- Good work. - Good work.
Good work.
I guess it's the composure of the conglomerate's son.
He's shameless but cool.
I know.
He has the vibe of a wealthy man.
After he was found to be the Hansung family,
the employees suspected him if his top scores...
of the entrance exam were fabricated.
Seeing him today, I guess it wasn't fabricated.
It wasn't solely because of his ability.
It's also because of Ms. Kang's instructions.
You're right.
If he had been under Mr. Park from the start,
he wouldn't have become like this.
Mr. Kim.
I'll get going first.
Go back to work when you're done cleaning up.
- Good work. - Good work.
(General Manager of Marketing Kang Mi Ri)
Mother.
Welcome.
What brings you here?
Have a seat.
Okay.
How are you getting used to the work?
Good.
I had a general meeting with Marketing Team today.
Everyone...
is doing good including myself.
I see.
I'm sorry, Mother.
I came here to apologize.
Father did this...
without telling you anything about it.
I apologize on his behalf.
And...
you must've felt upset...
during the executive meeting.
Forget it.
And Mr. Chairman does this all the time.
Whether it's a company or family affair,
he flips things over in the middle.
I'm used to it.
Mother.
I always got flustered...
and struggled...
to meet his decisions.
But...
I'm distressed and hurt this time.
I wished he wouldn't...
take care of the matter about Ms. Kang like this.
What about you?
What do you mean?
I'm hurt because of Mr. Chairman,
and you must be hurt because of Ms. Kang.
Did she...
tell you anything about this beforehand?
No, she didn't.
But...
it doesn't matter anymore.
What do you mean?
I'm not sure if I peeled them right.
Ms. Park, have some Korean melon.
I bought them from the supermarket.
They're sweeter than the one picked from...
a midsummer field. Have a piece.
You peeled them yourself?
- Thank you so much. - Here you go.
Have a piece.
Darling.
You too.
Have some.
Why are you acting out of character?
You pretend to care for me because Ms. Park's here.
How can you say I pretend to care?
Ms. Park is here.
Anyway,
you must've had...
a hard time looking after Da Bin...
for a while.
I did.
It was such hard work.
I didn't know it was this hard to raise a kid.
I don't remember...
how I managed when I was younger.
I guess I managed because I was young.
Looking after a kid...
at our age is hard labor.
And Ms. Park...
did that hard labor...
for as long as six years.
Since Da Bin was born until three months ago.
All you did was...
look after Da Bin for three months.
Which is why...
I must say you did so well.
Looking after Da Bin made me think...
how tough it must've been for you.
I also want to apologize...
for being so rude to you.
Please forget about it and don't dwell on it.
Why would I dwell on it?
Things happen when you raise kids.
And I did it for my daughter.
It wasn't hard at all.
I didn't mind.
Ms. Park.
Don't be too upset.
We got someone else to look after Da Bin,
but from what I saw,
the lady seems like...
a very good and nice person.
We'll drop by often to keep an eye on them.
Don't you worry too much, okay?
Hey.
Ms. Park.
Come on.
Don't cry, will you?
It will be fine.
She has two grandmas and a grandpa,
and caring parents too.
And now with a good babysitter,
Da Bin will do so well.
You care too much about your children.
I'm being silly.
I know.
Da Bin will be fine.
Yes.
I'm okay.
Sun Ja, were you at Mi Sun's?
Yes. Where's Min Ho?
It's not time for him to come.
Is it?
So, how's the babysitter?
Does she seem nice?
Get away from me.
Why are you sticking close and bugging me?
Sun Ja.
Here's our new pink model. What do you think?
It's nice and pretty.
- I'll take it. - Will you?
Thank you. Goodbye.
Thank you.
Does getting drunk solve anything?
Will your ex come back?
Or will you suddenly become a man?
Get up, you big bear.
It's summer, not winter.
How long will you do this for?
Must you upset me?
You big bear.
You've lost weight.
Don't lie.
You're not upset at all.
You said you wanted me to consider you a guy.
Let's be honest.
Who would take a guy seriously if he mopes...
under a blanket in the summer?
If that's all you can say, leave.
Will you stop hiding?
Let go. Fools like me don't deserve to live.
Bang Jae Bum, please.
What should I live for?
I was dumped by the woman I loved for nine years.
I loved her and didn't notice the signs.
I kept denying the truth.
What kind of writer am I?
I write about love when my love life's a mess.
When I announced that I'd quit writing,
you took me to our old campus.
Do you remember what I said?
I don't.
Do you think I can remember things like that?
"It takes courage to give up."
It's what Mi Ri said to me.
Things she can't forget,
things she can't forget even in her dreams,
she gives up if she thinks it's wrong.
Mi Hye.
I can't give up on you.
She said not all dreams come true.
Since when did you listen to Mi Ri?
You're really weird.
Anyway,
I'll stop torturing you with hope.
So you should...
stop wasting your life over me.
And get up.
Stop moping over me and live your life.
Without me...
I'm not worth living.
No. Without me...
I'm nothing!
No. Without me...
I'm just a fly.
You need to be without me.
I must disappear for you to stand alone.
You are better than this.
You're a famous scriptwriter,
and your father is the director...
of a hospital in Gangnam.
And you're sweet, kind,
and kind of cute, so lots of girls like you.
Why are you clinging to me?
Because it's you.
You're seriously ill.
Anyway, I have to go.
I changed my phone number.
Until you're back on your own feet,
you can't reach me.
I'm off.
See you when you're ready.
Kang Mi Hye.
Mi Hye.
I'm sure...
she likes you as a man.
What are you doing?
It's nothing much. I told you...
that my family is holding a memorial service today.
I packed some leftover pancakes for you.
I apologize.
I'm late for work.
The bus came late.
Why are you staring at me?
Are you going somewhere?
It's my manuscript.
I'll read it later.
Mr. Kim.
- What? - Well...
My mom appreciated your gift.
She really liked it.
You were worried...
if she'd like it or not.
It turned out to suit her taste.
She says you can always come to have some food.
Where are you going, by the way?
I'm going home.
What? Why so early?
Do you have a plan today?
Mi Hye, let me ask you a favor.
What?
Don't ask any questions about me.
I won't die before your new book comes out.
So don't worry or care about me.
Pardon?
And you don't have to tell me...
when you come in late or take a day off.
You've done a lot of work with your manuscript.
You can come to work every day like you do now,
or it wouldn't matter even if you come...
only when you need my feedback.
If you want,
I can send my feedback by e-mail.
All right then.
Why all of a sudden...
(CEO Jeon In Suk)
Why did you get a haircut?
Do you really have to show it like that?
Don't show your feelings to others.
That's what amateurs do.
Why do you even care?
Fine.
You can do whatever you want.
Fly if you want to fly.
If you want to go up, go up as high as you can.
Don't be sarcastic.
I'm not being sarcastic.
If you want to do this,
I will have to let you do it.
You're a person who won't be satisfied...
unless you get your own way.
I guess that's what symbolizes youth.
But you could've spent the time more wisely.
I feel pretty bad.
So you're going through trials and errors too.
That doesn't sound like my daughter.
You've become very daring.
How could you say that I'm your daughter here?
We will be...
sharing the responsibility anyway.
Once they find out that you're my daughter,
you'll be in trouble as well.
Because you had a deal with Mr. Chairman.
You will be up over with promotion.
Even if you leave the company,
you won't be able...
to find a job anywhere because of Mr. Chairman.
So you should listen to your mom.
Why aren't you listening to me?
- I'll take care of... - Please.
Please stop calling yourself my mom.
Ms. Jeon.
Think about why Mr. Chairman needs you.
The answer will be the same.
To hold me in check.
It means you have to surpass me...
to be useful for Mr. Chairman.
But I'm not so easy to defeat as you think.
Every parent wants...
to see their kid surpass themselves.
They want their children to be better than them.
That's what every parent wants,
and that's why they raise children.
But this isn't what I had...
in mind at first.
You didn't even raise me.
You're being...
like an adolescent girl these days.
Am I worrying for nothing?
Anyway,
I want you to do things right.
And don't forget...
that we're one team from Mr. Chairman's position.
He will eventually consider us that way.
So...
behave yourself.
I'll get myself out.
Director Han seems to be over you.
He's moved on.
Stop hurting yourself...
and move on.
Your goal is to go up...
without his help. Stay focused on it.
Okay?
Today, you're having a luncheon with the CEOs...
of Hansung Electronics, Hansung Corporation,
Hansung Communications, and Hansung Display.
They have a meeting once a month.
The CEOs meet regularly...
to discuss the issues of the affiliates.
Ms. Jeon has attended this meeting...
since she took office.
You're attending it on behalf of her today...
so you can meet them and pay your respects.
Ms. Kang.
Yes, sir.
Have you met...
people from the headquarters...
or the CEOs of the other affiliates?
Yes, I have.
Before Ms. Jeon took over,
I used to assist Director Park.
Is there anything I should be careful about?
You don't have to worry about anything else,
but it's important to get the start...
on CEO Lee Won Seok of Hansung Electronics.
Why?
Hansung Electronics makes up...
half of Hansung Group's profits.
He's very proud of it,
and he tends...
to look down on the other affiliates.
And he's been...
Mr. Chairman's right arm for long.
So there's a clear consensus...
that he will become...
one of the next Vice Chairmen...
in the group.
He'd hate me.
He'd hold you in check...
or try to attain superiority over you...
with his experience.
Is there anything else I should check?
There's nothing more to report,
but if you need this...
I hate eating with people I'm uncomfortable with.
Anyway,
let's give it a try.
He's here.
I'm sorry I couldn't pay you a visit sooner.
I'm Han Tae Ju.
Director Han Tae Ju? Nice to meet you.
I'm Seo Dong Deuk of Hansung Communications.
Hello.
- Nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you too.
Hello.
I'm Jo Jun Hyuk of Hansung Display.
Nice to meet you. I'm Han Tae Ju.
So we're having meetings with you...
instead of Ms. Jeon from now on?
I'm Seo Pil Joo of Hansung Corporation.
Nice to meet you.
She's very busy,
so I'm taking over her works...
unless it's about the apparel.
I look forward to working with you.
We can talk about it later.
How would I know that?
I said we can talk about it later.
CEO Lee Won Seok.
I'm Han Tae Ju.
Director Han, I'm sorry.
They just keep calling me.
I didn't know you came.
By the way, you're a little late.
You're supposed to be here on time.
You can't keep these old men waiting.
Hey, are you Ms. Kang?
Yes, sir.
What were you doing assisting your boss?
He will be the next chairman.
You should've made sure that he'd arrive on time.
The thing is...
In fact,
I told her I wanted to come late.
I heard you are always...
half an hour late for the meeting.
If I arrived before you,
I thought you would've embarrassed.
I guess you came right on time today.
Pardon?
Since I'm late today, lunch is on me.
Please have a seat.
- Let's sit. - Okay.
- Please have a seat. - Okay.
(Episode 48 will air shortly.)
Oh, my.
(Episode 48)
Sun Ja, where did you go?
Are you all right?
What? What about me?
I saw you crying all this morning.
Are you eating your lunch now?
Yes, we were busy up until now.
Sit down and eat your meal.
This zucchini seems a bit withered.
Did you go grocery shopping?
Yes, I'm going to make side dishes.
- "Side dishes"? - Yes.
I'm worried that the babysitter might be...
irritated if there are not enough side dishes...
and doesn't feed Da Bin properly.
Goodness, Sun Ja.
Stop making things complicated and rest.
I'm worried you might get sick again.
Actually, I'm making these side dishes...
for Mi Ri.
For Mi Ri?
Since the memorial service day, I can't sleep...
at night at the thought of Mi Ri.
So I'm making these as an excuse...
to visit her.
I see.
You always worry about children and grandchild.
Who's going to stop you?
Anyway,
Mi Sun's in-laws must feel empty without Da Bin.
Aren't they?
My goodness.
Honey, honey!
What? What was that?
Where is the hospital?
Seojin Hospital?
He's at the hospice unit?
Why is he at the hospice unit?
So?
How long does he have?
My goodness.
What is he doing?
Why isn't he answering?
Honey, didn't you hear me calling you?
Why aren't you answering?
What?
Honey, why do you have your eyes closed?
Are you sleeping?
No... Why? What?
Can you come out and bring down...
the pot above the sink?
Now Da Bin's not here,
I'm going to clean the house.
Da Bin jumped on the bed with her bare feet.
The sheets are dirty.
I'm going to wash the sheets first.
What's wrong with you?
Come on out and help me clean the house.
Hurry up and come out.
Honey.
What? What's wrong?
About Hee Chul...
You know Jung Hee Chul, right?
Who is Jung Hee Chul?
Oh, that Hee Chul?
About him...
Forget it.
Let's talk about him later.
I'm busy right now.
I have to do the laundry and clean the house.
Come out and help me.
Hurry up.
How could he do this to me?
Hurry up and bring this down.
Why does he have leaden feet?
Is it because he weighs a lot?
My gosh!
Honey! Seriously.
Oh, my. Welcome.
Could you...
give me an invigorating drink?
All right.
Should I give you the one that you always drink?
- Yes. - All right.
Here you go.
Thank you.
But...
is something going on?
Why do you look so upset?
Is it that obvious?
Yes, I can tell right away.
Is something wrong?
Please tell me.
Tell me, Mr. Jung.
I just...
received a call.
Yes?
I heard that one of my good friends is...
hospitalized in the hospice unit.
My goodness. Are you sure?
That's why I'm feeling so depressed right now.
I'm sad.
I feel frustrated.
Here you go, Mr. Jung.
Use this.
- Thank you. - Don't mention it.
You must've been immensely shocked.
You must be devastated.
We worked at the same company...
for 40 years...
and share all the joys and sorrows.
I didn't even know he was sick.
Oh, my goodness.
That must've given you even a harder time.
He insisted that he didn't want...
anybody to know that he was sick.
Oh, dear.
He didn't want to be the first...
to leave among his friends.
But he is not even the first one to leave.
A local news reporter, Kim Tae Gyun...
and an athletic reporter...
of soccer columnist, Jung Jun...
passed away in a traffic accident.
He is lying in a tiny hospice unit...
with an old folk over 90 years old...
within sight of death.
What a pity.
My goodness, Mr. Jung.
This is so upsetting.
It even upsets me as well.
I'm sorry. I don't know why I said that to you.
- I'm sorry. - Don't be.
Feel free and tell me everything.
I will hear you out.
If you feel like crying, you may cry.
Mr. Jung.
- Mom! - My Da Bin.
Did you have fun?
You are home.
Look at you, you're sweating. Hello, Ms. Lee.
Da Bin wanted to play.
So I danced with her.
You must be tired.
Not at all.
It's good for exercise.
Thank you so much.
Da Bin, did you have fun?
Yes.
Is it you, Song Chang?
What am I doing?
I'm riding a bike...
and going around the neighborhood.
Why?
I strongly opposed my wife.
But she was determined to hire a babysitter.
Do you think I'm out of my mind?
I won't go home early on the day like this.
Hey, Mother...
I mean, I don't want to be with even my own mom.
After work...
I want a physical and mental rest.
After struggling all day at work,
I'd go home, drink a can of cold beer,
and lie down in a sprawl for enough rest.
But that's impossible for me...
with those strange women...
staying in my place.
And my wife nags me so much...
to clean up, wash up, and look after our kid...
until the moment she falls asleep.
That is why...
I circle around the neighborhood...
on my bicycle every day.
Hey, my friend.
I desperately want...
a place to get sound rest.
Let's hang up now.
I need to circle around some more.
I have to.
Bye.
Hello.
(Arabian Night Motel)
(Rooms available, long term rent available)
Wait a second.
(Rooms available, long term rent available)
Hi, Mom. What's up?
I'm calling to check if Da Bin had a good time.
I told you not to worry.
When I came home, she was doing great.
Oh, really?
That's great. I'm so glad to hear that.
What did your husband say?
I don't know. He hasn't come home yet.
Anyway, it's good.
I'm not worried anymore.
Come to my house and get some side dishes tomorrow.
What side dishes all of a sudden?
- Is it Grandma? - Yes.
Ms. Lee feeds Da Bin every mealtime.
She'll be stressed out if there isn't much food,
so I made some side dishes for Da Bin. Come get them.
You really didn't have to do this.
Thank you.
Da Bin is going to eat well.
Da Bin, she made side dishes for you.
Thank her.
Thank you for the food, Grandma.
No problem.
Sweetheart, listen to Ms. Lee...
and to your mom, all right?
Thanks, Mom.
Okay, bye.
Bye.
What did she say? Did Da Bin have fun today?
Yes, she did.
See?
I told you she'd be all right.
Kids are better at getting used to stuff than adults.
You cried all day for no reason.
I didn't cry.
I was just feeling sad.
I had to let someone else take care...
of my own granddaughter, so of course, I was sad.
Kids these days grow well in such an environment.
Take this chance to regain your strength...
so you can look after her in case of an emergency.
By the way,
one is for Mi Sun...
and another one is for Mi Ri,
so whom is that last one for? Me?
What do you mean, yours? You eat here at the store.
Then?
The chief editor of Mi Hye's company...
sent me a gift...
in return for eating my ox-bone soup.
I felt like I had to pack some for him too.
I mean, I can't take his gift for free.
What, the chief editor sent you a gift?
Yes.
What's the matter? Why are you still here?
Well,
I want to get your feedback about my writing.
You may leave it on my desk from now on.
I'll send you my feedback by e-mail.
I don't want to.
What?
I want to hear it directly from you.
I can reflect it on my writing faster that way.
Okay.
Then wait a little.
Did you just say that you have no appetite?
Did I mishear it?
Peter.
Are you popular among women?
Well... Yes.
a little.
Why are you asking me that all of a sudden?
Mi Hye told me...
that she could never think of me as a man.
I did my best for her.
More than anyone else could do.
But I don't know what to do anymore.
Why can't she think of me as a man?
Because of my belly fat?
Because of my droopy eyes?
Or because of my fashion style?
She isn't that kind of person...
who cares only about looks.
But...
the looks may be part of the reason.
Men need something more than just competency now.
Am I that unappealing as a man?
No.
That's not true.
There are women who are fond of...
the comfortable type of a man like you.
This may be unexpected, but I'm quite popular.
Even during the nine years of liking Mi Hye,
I was asked out by several women.
But why doesn't Mi Hye think of me as a man?
Why aren't we meant to be in this life?
Mr. Bang.
Do you believe in the saying,
"Little strokes fell great oaks"?
I had a crush on her for nine years...
because of that saying, but she wouldn't budge.
No wonder why. That saying is a lie.
Hardly any men are popular...
among those who believe in such old sayings...
and make thoughtless attempts.
What's the use in being nice?
If the other doesn't want to accept you,
your effort and sincerity are all self-satisfaction.
You said you put effort,
but try to think if you really loved Mi Hye...
or you just loved yourself...
in love with one woman.
I do love her. I can't live without her.
All right, I'll share my tips,
but I'm doing this because it's you.
You know that, right?
Sure, I do.
Love is a strategy.
- Love is what? - A strategy.
That's right.
Now, what kind of man does Mi Hye like?
Someone boundlessly sweet?
Or someone cute and younger?
Or a manly man who takes the lead?
I'm not sure.
She thinks it's pathetic to talk about such stuff.
What about her favorite celebrity?
Perhaps, a drama or movie character?
She's tacky that she does not watch such a thing.
She always reads books. Besides, she likes...
the classics, not anything like online novels.
She loves Mr. Darcy from "Pride and Prejudice".
Oh, the kind of a man who seems cold-hearted,
but sweet on the inside.
I see.
That's why.
I knew it.
What?
- Ms. Kang. - Yes?
The sentence, "We only have the same mom."
I like it.
The three different sisters...
start to be seen distinctively.
It broadens the range for readers...
to choose which character to relate to.
Especially the scene where the sisters...
talk about their ideal type of man together.
I like it.
In the later part, try to mention...
celebrities and romance dramas or cartoons...
that were popular around that time.
It'd help readers to evoke their memories too.
Okay, I'll take note.
I'll send it to you when I'm done reviewing it.
Any more words of advice?
No.
Aren't you going to leave work?
That's none of your business.
Did I do something wrong?
No, you didn't.
Then why are you suddenly...
drawing a line between us?
You told me to come and leave work as I want.
You told me not to be curious or ask questions.
You told me not to be concerned about you.
Then why do you keep crossing the line?
What?
Ms. Kang. Do you like me?
What?
Well... I...
What if I were to believe you do?
It's not good to be too nice.
Okay?
You got lucky.
If it were anyone else,
your behaviors...
could've been totally misunderstood.
Be careful.
Well...
I don't do this to just anyone.
Actually, I...
I was married.
Then I got divorced.
What?
So my line is more exact...
and particular.
I warned you,
so don't cross the line again.
Okay?
It was a long day.
Thanks for the ride home.
Goodbye, sir.
Why was it Hansung Apparel?
If you wanted a promotion,
Hansung Electronics, Hansung Corporation,
Hansung Credit Card, Hansung Communications,
Hansung Heavy Industry, and Hansung Display.
There are many other subsidiaries.
Why did you...
want to be CEO of Hansung Apparel?
Hansung Apparel was the company I worked at.
You could go anywhere else...
and still shine as an employee.
That's not what I want to do.
What you want to do?
Isn't getting promoted what you wanted?
Then why did you choose Hansung Apparel?
Because that's where you were.
Mr. Chairman's associates...
assigned me to your team on purpose.
They'd decided that you were...
the ideal person to train me.
If that hurt your feelings,
I'll apologize on the company's behalf.
But don't grump about it for too long.
Your superiors thought highly of you.
In the end,
the reason Mr. Chairman accepted your demand...
would be an extent of this.
My personal reason for joining...
Hansung Apparel was in my resume.
To succeed as an owner,
I thought...
that I should learn at the forefront.
For that reason,
I'm still grateful to you...
for training me.
I should go.
Okay. You did well today.
See you tomorrow at work.
Come in.
Why did you come here at this hour?
Sir.
Is Tae Ju still at work?
This afternoon, he met all the CEOs...
for a luncheon.
How did that go?
I was told that he did very well.
You bet he did. He's my son.
Why are you standing there?
Do you have something to say to me?
Yes.
Go ahead then.
Mr. Chairman.
Please...
forgive me, sir.
What are you doing?
Is this another show?
Why are you doing this?
You're the great Jeon In Suk.
I didn't think it through.
I was foolish...
and only now...
realized that I made a big mistake for you.
Now, when it comes to business,
never again...
will I go against your wishes.
Not long ago, you talked back at me.
It's quite interesting, Jeon In Suk.
Isn't it?
Hansung Apparel isn't my company.
It's yours...
and Hansung Group's.
I'll settle myself again...
and return to the basics.
Please be merciful...
and forgive me...
for the mistakes I've made.
Get up. It's not fun anymore.
You're old now.
Don't ruin your knees.
Don't you dare go against me again.
Then it won't end with you kneeling.
You know that, don't you?
I'll remember that, sir.
Ms. Kang.
Buy me a soda at least.
Not ice cream.
A soda?
Ms. Kang!
Sorry.
This is so nice.
It's so nice.
Is this your first time?
Yes.
I've never done this before.
No way. Then what did you do?
- I studied. - What?
I studied and studied.
Then I worked.
This is the first time I've done this in my life.
Believe it or not.
Ms. Kang.
Let's get married.
I want to marry you.
A relationship that you're my half,
my family,
my lover,
and my everything.
That's what I want.
So, Ms. Kang,
let's get married.
Now that I see it directly,
it's more dynamic than what I expected.
You don't have to check...
everything in the factory anymore.
I think we talked about this during the meeting.
Ms. Kang.
So our competitor advanced...
the schedule of launching the new product.
Yes. If there's no problem with the final samples,
we'll send them to the VIP customers right away.
Before other companies release new products,
make sure to introduce ours as soon as possible.
How is the pre-order event going?
We're getting more orders than what we expected.
Once the samples are confirmed, we'll check...
the first production schedule again.
Is there any problem?
No.
I learned a lot thanks to you.
If you were uncomfortable because of me today,
I'm sorry about that.
It's okay, sir.
As you know,
I have a long way to go to become like you.
So before the release of the new product,
I'd like to grasp the overall procedures...
of marketing, planning,
production, and distribution.
I need to know the entire procedures.
If it is necessary,
I'll go anywhere...
even if it's a factory or warehouse.
Just so you know.
Yes. I'll remember that.
I told you not to wear high heels.
You might get hurt, so you should wear sneakers.
(Mother of Mine)
That's absurd!
I'll make her penniless and kick her out.
- You can't do that. - What?
Is the meeting over?
Then can I borrow Ms. Kang from you?
I'm sure there's something going on between them.
Mr. Kim Woo Jin was married before?
- He's divorced? - I shouldn't like...
- a divorced man? - Why not?
You think so too?
All my children are so...
- You'll be late? - I'll be late.
Why did I get married?
What's the point of living a long time?
So are you doing all right?
Please forget about the past.
I'm not giving you up.
And I'm still...
in love with you.
