Where were you when Sang Soo had his car accident?
What?
What do you mean?
She was with me on the way to meet a friend.
That's when she got a call.
I see.
Yes. That's right.
But why would you suddenly ask me that?
I think I vaguely remember...
you being in the car.
What?
We all had a drink together, and you got drunk,
so you left with Sang Soo.
I remained inside, and when I got Jung Woo's call,
I went over to see him.
You're mistaken.
Yes. You must've been confused.
Right.
Why is he like that all of a sudden?
It won't be anything. Don't worry about it.
I like living free like this.
I go when I want to...
and stop where I want.
It must be nice to live as you want.
So Dad also gave up on me.
But in the end, he'll take your side.
You're all that matters to Dad.
What do you mean by that?
Until it's completely restored,
I'd better not mention the phone that's being repaired.
What are you doing?
It's nothing.
I'm just back from the factory,
and the mood was sour due to the suicide of the laid-off worker.
They're asking why the headquarters is not giving an announcement.
I went upstairs to get some of my stuff,
and it's brutal up there too.
Don't you think it was a good idea to come down here?
This is an underground bunker.
The executives in distribution will soon have a press conference,
so let's wait for it.
Yes, let's stick to our given tasks.
- Yes. - Okay.
Where were you when Sang Soo had his car accident?
I think I vaguely remember...
you being in the car.
What memory?
There's no way he could suddenly remember.
In the car,
he was almost passed out as he was dead drunk.
He's just feeling me out.
But why would he suddenly bring that up?
(Ko Sang Soo)
These are the articles of Mr. Ko Sang Soo.
He might not have passed away if he was found sooner.
It's such a shame.
Sang Ah. Where are you? Are you here?
Yes.
What are you doing?
I'm just...
reminded of Sang Soo.
You said you were going to see Sang Soo with Dad.
I'm back from it and was trying to sleep, but I have bad thoughts.
Sang Soo would've blamed me so much.
Don't beat yourself up, Mom.
Don't take...
what your dad tells you to your heart.
You must be shocked,
but your dad must be in a stew as well.
This is where Sang Soo and his friends hung out,
so I have never been here.
Go, Mom. If you're here, it'll remind you of Sang Soo more.
Let's go up.
Sure.
Right.
I left it there and didn't bother to look.
Then Mom papered the room again for the repair.
And I've forgotten about it.
Is this all?
What about the rest? Isn't there more?
Is there?
Maybe Bok Hee took it.
That lazy bum, Hyun Hee.
There you go. It's your braised dried pollack.
You must be so happy as your business is doing well.
I'd love to own a restaurant like this.
That'll be nice.
The business does well, and the headquarters is reliable.
I'm back.
Yes.
This is for the next delivery.
We got lots of orders so come back soon.
I guess many people order too.
Things have been hectic lately as I've been getting many orders.
I'm jealous of how busy you are, ma'am.
Oh, well.
Your food will get cold. Enjoy your meal.
Okay.
Why would she call me?
I'm not taking this.
She's obnoxious.
The receiver cannot be reached. Please leave a message after...
CEO Ko, it's produced as you ordered,
and I applied for the patent license as well.
Yes. Good job.
Call up Hyun Hee.
My sister-in-law?
No, just go there...
and get her here.
Yes, ma'am.
Kids don't like it when buttons are stiff and don't close.
So when you press it,
it closes well.
It stays locked even when you move about.
And when you want to open it,
you only have to slightly press on it.
Won't we use this for adults?
It'll work on the shirts for adults.
It's a hassle to button up every day.
You're doing that again, even in the meeting.
Let's not do this.
Why not? I'd love to have a shirt like that.
Geez. I'm so frustrated.
Now, there.
Let's not get tense.
These buttons come at a low-cost price,
and they have a cute design too.
I think kids will like it as it goes well with the clothing.
It'll be comfortable and pretty.
Shouldn't we get it patented quickly?
It's a small technique.
By the way, there's one more thing.
It looks the same.
It's the same button...
but has an additional function.
How so?
You see...
Let go of me now!
CEO Ko. I got Hyun Hee.
Well done. You may leave.
Yes, ma'am.
What is it?
When you...
gave me the document asking me to get you a job,
was that the only thing in it?
Sure, that was all.
Was there anything else?
If you left out by mistake...
or find something in the future,
bring it.
Who knows?
You may get a job here again.
Really?
Yes.
You know I keep my promises.
I'll go check if there's anything missing in it.
Geez, you startled me.
What's up with her?
I called her in to ask something.
Sit down.
How about if the pockets go a little lower?
Yes, that'll be better.
I applied for the patent.
It'll take time until it is registered,
but that goes for the other team too.
So we won't suffer damage because of it.
That's good.
Then can you complement the changes...
and send it back to the designer?
Yes, I'll do that.
You said you'll take down all the suicide articles.
Why does it keep coming up?
It...
has already spread around.
And the reporters won't listen as it's good gossip.
First, we strengthened the company security...
so that reporters can never be allowed in.
Meet the bereaved family and just give them some money.
Nobody hates money.
They don't want to meet us at all.
They want to make an issue by moving the organization...
around the labor union.
Then...
you want me to just stay still?
They're only attacking me!
A ridiculous video about me is also on the Internet.
And Se Ra sent it to me.
Calm down.
Anyway, it made the directors ruffle their feathers,
so you must win the vote in order to show your management skills.
Of course.
They would have applied for a patent too.
Only one of us will be registered,
but the timing of the application is important. Since we applied first,
we can accuse Dreamy that they plagiarized ours.
That's right.
We'll make them give up, so they can't compete.
Those basement brats. Do your best.
You can't even make it to the vote.
Even if Dreamy wins,
it's a product for next year's season anyway. Our patent...
will be registered by next year,
so they can't make it without our permission...
even if they want to.
They can't make next year's new product that they designed,
but the company that buys it can.
Take out designs that are useful and use it for Audrey.
Okay.
Sometimes, it's a fresh approach to mix low-level designs.
How about wine after work?
No.
My head hurts from concerning everywhere.
I want to go home and rest.
Gosh. You should go home if you're done.
It's because I'm not done yet.
Geez. In this situation,
you have to say: "Just go home even if your work isn't done."
Right on!
Is that so? I'm sorry.
It's okay. I'll be done soon.
But do only the headquarter employees vote?
That's what I heard.
Right. I'll explain once more.
When both brands upload...
the product photos and descriptions on the website at 10 a.m.,
the voting starts an hour after.
And the voting closes at 3 p.m.
It would be nice to vote on the spot while seeing the real product,
but the procedure is difficult, so we'll compete on the website.
That's a shame.
It'd be best to let them touch the product and think for a long time.
People don't think for long when they go shopping.
So it may be very similar to the opinions of customers...
leading to consumption.
So, we have to take great photos of the product...
and explain the main points well.
After all, it's what brand they like.
We're making good products at a fair price.
We want them to think if they have children,
they want to buy these products...
and so want this brand to stay.
That's just Dreamy.
That's right!
As it's late today, go home immediately!
- Okay! - All right!
Goodness me.
Honey. What are you doing?
When Eun Ha studies, her neck is too bent.
So I thought it would be good to put her notebook or book here.
Here. It's done now.
Do you like it?
Wow. I love it!
Goodness me. It wouldn't cost much on the Internet.
Why did you make it?
Grandpa. You make things so quickly.
You're like my mom.
Gosh. I'm nothing like your mom.
See what she did this time.
Your mom made an awesome item.
What is it?
There's something like that.
Due to the suicide of the laid-off worker,
I had a hard time answering calls from directors and explaining.
The public opinion is awful.
Director Yu is taking care of it. Please wait a bit more.
Yes. We're blocking the articles...
and settling an agreement with the bereaved family,
so don't worry.
How can I not worry?
They're saying it all happened as X Fund got involved.
The image I've been trying to manage so far collapsed like that.
I'm sorry.
If you lose to Dreamy this time around,
it'll be hard for you to keep your position.
Let's go out.
They didn't take it well as we fired a whole lot of them overnight.
It'll quiet down soon as the public opinion...
will again stop when the fire fades away...
after a while.
That annoying press.
They live off talking. How are they much better?
If they catch something, they bark like mad.
As it wasn't there when I searched...
the director's office and the basement office in secret,
it must be in his house.
What are you doing?
I have some work to do.
What is it? I'll help you.
No, it's okay.
I was a little moved by you yesterday.
When that wench Ko Sang Ah came to find Se Ra,
you brought me into the store, taking my side in front of her.
I would've fallen in love if you were a man.
What?
If one of us was a man, wouldn't we have fallen in love?
Ms. Nam.
How many people do you fall in love with at the same time?
You'll fall in love with all the people in the neighborhood.
That's not true.
I only do it to certain people.
Director Jang!
Are you going somewhere?
Well, I'm going to the convenience store.
Convenience store?
Then he needs to go to the main street.
Is she going to look through Director Jang's house?
Geez. Does she like him too?
That's not good.
Do I have to lose a friend because of a man again?
Great. He didn't lock the door!
So she'll let me work at the company again if I find that, right?
What on earth could it be?
I left my credit card.
Hyun Hee. Did you break and enter my house?
I should report this to the police.
Director Jang! Hold on a second!
Ms. Ko said she'll let you work again if you find the phone?
That was mine from the start, but it got into your hands.
So please turn a blind eye to breaking and entering.
How is this yours?
You probably did breaking and entering and found it.
Anyway,
you wouldn't have had it if it wasn't for me.
Right? Then I'll get going!
Wait.
What was in that envelope other than the phone?
There wasn't anything.
Right.
No. I'll show you everything.
You'll show me?
No matter how much I saw it, it seemed suspicious.
So I took pictures of everything before handing it over to CEO Ko.
There was also a letter there.
I opened it, took a picture,
and stuck it back as if I had not opened it.
I'm very good at that.
I'll show it all to you.
You'll let me off then, right?
If I go to the police station again, I'll have two criminal records.
What's worse, it's breaking into a man's house this time.
Then I can't get married.
Fine. I was careless not to lock the door.
Send the picture you were going to show me.
All right!
I have enemies everywhere, and they won't leave me alone.
If I solve one problem, then another problem occurs.
Si Kyung asking about the accident suddenly is bothering me too.
You're too sensitive these days.
By any chance,
You didn't do something, did you?
What?
What did I do?
You even recorded our conversation on the day of the accident.
So?
Do you think I sent that to Si Kyung?
If you don't want me to doubt you,
hand over that file to me.
No.
I want you to like me,
not make you trust me.
Hold that thought.
Yes, it's me.
What the heck?
I won't join you.
No, I just want to talk.
Talk?
Do you think you can start a conversation with me?
By any chance, aren't you CEO Ko Sang Ah?
What?
Are you a reporter?
No, I'm your fan.
It's so unfortunate and upsetting to see people fussing over...
the video clip of your verbal abuse...
and the suicide of the person you sacked.
Who are you to be a fan of mine?
Just drink if that's what you came here for!
Don't be unfortunate about me.
This is so annoying! That darn suicide!
What's the fuss about a person's death?
Pardon?
But that person who died...
Did I use him for free and sack him?
I paid him for all the work he did then I sacked him.
How can I run a company when I can't fire people when they're not needed?
And they go on a strike because they don't like that?
You would've been worse if you tried!
(Save recorded file)
This is surprising!
I only heard rumors, but in real life, she's worse!
It'd be a waste to just open the can.
Dear Sang Soo,
I read the letter you wrote.
You changed your career without discussing it with me...
and chose the girl that I don't accept.
That's no different than saying you'd cut ties with me.
You're not my son anymore,
nor are you the successor of this company.
So don't even think about coming back.
He wrote such a letter to him?
Something feels fishy.
Don't tell me this was a scheme...
to obstruct Sang Soo and Chairman's relationship.
If the phone is restored, the truth will be revealed.
It seemed that the accident was recorded.
Sang Ah was there too.
Tomorrow's the voting day.
Yes, I'll come back a winner.
Okay, please do well.
Okay.
Ko Sang Ah.
You were definitely with him right before the accident.
Finally, the time has come today.
Yes. Have you seen the photo?
Wow, it came out so great!
It really did.
Since we edited the promotional text of the product as you suggested,
it improved a lot.
Then let's post it now.
Since we are supposed to post it at 10 o'clock sharp...
In 5, 4, 3, 2, 1! Post it!
Now, both of us posted it up.
Then trip them over.
Mr. Yoon,
you're the supervisor of today's competition, right?
Yes.
There seems to be a problem with Dreamy's products.
Yes.
They copied the patent we applied for.
Yes.
I'll send you the files.
All right. Thank you.
What did he say?
If it's found to be true, he'll disqualify them.
He should.
Did the vote start?
Not yet. We still have 20 minutes.
Geez, why won't the time go past?
We need to win this.
It's not just about the company.
Our pride depends on it as we came down to the basement.
Let's show them how we hang in there...
from the bottom and win ourselves up.
That's right.
Or else, we don't know...
what weird department we'll be sent to after selling Dreamy.
Right. At least there is a roof over our head here.
If we lose and Dreamy disappears,
she'd probably send you to a tent outside.
She can't. I'm allergic to sunlight.
Let's never end up outdoors.
Oh, dear. Other companies would take this as a joke,
but this company is capable of doing anything.
So that might come true.
That's right.
That wench Ko would do anything.
Who is that wench Ko?
Is that me?
Pardon?
Sang Ah, why are you here?
Oh, right.
You always come and see me when you're anxious.
Why? Did you lose faith?
No.
You lost even without voting.
What?
The buttons on the product you posted.
We applied for a patent for that.
You can't use it.
The administration said that they would not vote...
after seeing the papers we sent.
Soon, the website would close too.
Thieves who steal other people's work.
How could you?
My gosh.
Did you expect us to respond this way?
Have you all gone insane?
Well,
you stole our files from the office using Cha Ban...
and applied a patent for that?
But what do you do now?
We knew you would do that.
What?
Are you kidding me?
Look! It's the same!
Have you lost your mind from the shock?
No.
The button you are looking at...
looks the same but functions differently.
Inside this button, we put a chip that tracks your location.
It's a useful button that's perfect...
for finding where the kids are,
and when you lose your clothes, you can locate it.
What?
What is going on?
What do you think?
Your patent application turned to dust.
(My Wonderful Life)
You're here.
Ki Cha Ban, how could you be such a foolish spy?
Take over the company Mrs. Wang is investing on.
Are you kicking CEO Ko out...
because you're thinking of giving the position to me?
She's going to make Si Kyung the owner of this company.
That mean wench.
I'd have to do something.
Do you have a plan?
- Stop the dismissal. - What?
Once you hear this, you'd probably want to.
