(Episode 1)
Hey, what's wrong with you?
Hey.
Someone once said this.
That all of us die one day.
And yet, we act as if we'll live forever.
Hey, did you not go home yet?
Hey!
Darn it.
Hey.
Hey, get out of there.
Go home.
Hey, wake up. Hey!
Hey, what's wrong with you? Wake up.
What happened?
Call 911.
Ji Hyeon, wait.
Hey, where is Ji Eun?
- Take a breather. - Min Seok.
I have to see her.
- Let me go. I have to see Ji Eun. - Calm down.
I have to see her!
No, Ji Eun...
Ji Eun...
Ji Eun, no...
No...
Calm down.
- No. - This can't be.
Min Seok, hold on.
Let me see her again.
Ji Eun.
(Time)
Turn off the alarm.
Gosh. Seol Ji Hyeon.
I said, turn off your alarm.
- Gosh. - Be quiet.
Turn it off!
What is this? I told you to be quiet!
- Turn it off. - You're too loud.
Hey!
- What? - Can't you turn it off for me?
Hurry up and turn it off. Hurry up.
Do you want to die?
Hey!
You're such a pig.
How is it? Is it good?
- You're getting better. - Right?
Will they let you go to France if you pass the test today?
Yes, of course.
Will I get the room to myself now?
Unfortunately, yes.
Yes!
Are you happy?
You won't make it.
- What? - It would make you so happy...
if you pass when you don't expect it.
But if you have high hopes and you fail,
you'll cry and make a scene again.
Hey. Shut your mouth.
You're jinxing me. Take back what you said.
Gosh.
Are you studying hard these days?
This is delicious.
You have to take a year off if you don't get any scholarship.
You know we don't have any money.
I'll take a break, then.
- Are you serious? - What?
- Don't. - Watch it.
- Mom, come and eat. - Okay.
I have to go out right away.
Ji Hyeon, do you have any money?
No.
Do you have money?
It's not like you ever give me allowance.
Where did you get this outfit?
I always had it.
- Really? - Do you really not have any?
You got your pay last week.
I don't. I don't have any. Not even a penny.
- Ji Hyeon. - I'm broke.
Hey.
I hope it's true that they don't look at academic background.
- Hey. - Happy birthday.
- Do you want to meet tonight? - What?
Is it my birthday?
Didn't you know?
No, I didn't.
Welcome to W Department Store full of love.
Please have a great time shopping.
Welcome to W Department Store full of love.
Please have a great time shopping.
Why are you going this way?
They told me to go this way.
Reverse.
How can I help you, sir?
How good is your sight?
- Pardon? - Don't you see my license plate?
I'm sorry. I gave you the wrong directions.
VIP customers can go that way.
What about your hand signals?
You have to signal us so we can go.
Are you looking down on me?
Welcome to W Department Store full of love.
Please have a great time shopping.
"Great time"? What a joke.
Is he crazy?
What did you just say?
Well...
I...
- Actually, it... - Move.
Hey. Are you okay?
Even things like these are looking down on me now.
- You're being too harsh. - What?
Can't you see that you made her fall?
Are you getting mad at me?
Who wouldn't get mad in this situation?
If someone fell, you should ask if they're okay.
That's common sense.
"Common sense"?
Sir!
Are you here? I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
Hey, are you crazy?
Don't you know who he is?
He's the son of W Group's chairman.
Hurry up and apologize to him right now!
I'm sorry.
You must know that our company...
signs on with W Group on a yearly basis, right?
If we can't work with them again,
you'll make a lot of people lose their jobs.
Hurry up and apologize to him.
- I'm sorry. - Sorry for what?
I'm sorry for not recognizing you...
and signaling you in the wrong direction,
- and for calling you a crazy... - Forget it.
If you're sorry, then show me.
Your face doesn't look sorry.
Sir.
Okay. What do you want me to do?
Should I go on my knees?
Okay. Let's resolve this...
with you going on your knees.
Okay.
I'm sorry.
Ji Hyeon.
There was no need to really go on your knees.
Now I look like the bad guy.
Let's go.
Take care.
Bye.
Get up.
I'm sorry. Are you okay?
Hey, Lawyer Shin.
Well?
Did you settle the director's bar bills?
Yes.
(Retirement pension)
"Retirement pension"?
Isn't it disgusting?
Pardon?
It was hard becoming a lawyer and making your way up.
But you're busy picking up after others.
Quit if you don't want to do it. Just forget it.
Even if you're gone, we have...
1, 2, 3... There are people lined up.
(Coffee)
Gosh.
Drink this.
I didn't spit in it.
That's okay.
Which department are you in? You're dressed pretty smart.
Ma'am...
Hello!
Thank you for coming early.
The takeover documents are ready. All you have to do is sign.
- Is that it? - Yes?
I'll sign it here. Give it to me.
Okay. Here you go.
Hold on.
If you have a pen, I can sign right away.
Hey.
Thanks.
- Here. - Thank you.
Oh, isn't it your birthday?
Happy birthday.
"Justice will prevail"?
Do you really think so?
Don't just wish me a happy birthday and give me a present.
I'd like to hire him.
Well,
if you want him, he's yours to take at any time.
See you around.
Throw it away if you don't want it.
Thanks for coming by. Happy birthday.
Goodbye.
I won't go too far.
What did you do that made her want to hire you?
Who is she?
Our junior managing director's fiancee.
Taeyang's chairman's only daughter.
You have a long way to go.
What are you thinking?
About you.
Liar.
You're quick to notice.
Blow out the candle.
Happy birthday, Chae A.
I love you.
Do I put this around your neck?
Pull your hair back.
You have 30 minutes to make...
what you want with the ingredients.
Like the two previous rounds,
you'll be judged purely on taste alone.
It's time to begin.
- Okay. - Okay.
"I want to puke." "Gross."
"This is for your journal."
"A reporter trying too hard."
It looks like I'll live a long, long time.
It's better than being ignored.
Aren't you using me too much?
I got the reporters to notice your birthday...
so your company shares would go up.
You should grow up.
If you fail again, you'll lose your job.
You shouldn't embarrass your mother.
Eun Chae A.
What did you just say?
Sit down.
Manager. Chef! Head server.
Get over here!
- Yes, sir. - Is something the matter?
Do you see it's burned?
Will you take responsibility if this gives me cancer?
If your customers sue you for giving them cancer,
will you pay the lawyer fees?
I'll make another plate.
It's too late! I ate it already!
Will you stay for more, Chae A?
It's okay, chef, it's delicious.
You can leave us.
Enjoy your meal.
Stop embarrassing yourself and sit down.
Thanks for wishing me happy birthday,
you scumbag.
I just did my duty.
Happy birthday dear Ji Hyeon
Happy birthday to you
Here.
What is it?
It's beautiful.
Hey, it has my initials.
I'm so touched.
Well?
Does it suit me?
If only it had a real jewel, right?
Anything I wear looks like a jewel.
I'm a great mannequin.
Have a look. Isn't it a jewel?
Who is it?
A friend from the judicial institute is getting married.
- Ji Hyeon. - What?
About our marriage.
Can you wait a little longer?
You know my situation.
I have my dad's medical bills...
- and a huge loan to... - Can't we...
live together and pay that off slowly?
We can't afford a house to live in together.
It's obvious that you'll struggle more than you already do.
I don't want to live like that.
Let's get married when we're a bit more ready.
Okay.
Your photo's on social media.
Have a look.
Is this you or not?
It is me, sir.
Have you considered the possibility of...
one photo like this ruining our company?
No, sir.
Is this because of your marriage?
Are you acting out because you don't want to marry?
No, sir.
I know...
how important this union is to both families.
I have no intention...
of ruining it.
- Really? - Yes.
And you...
went and did this?
What do you even think about?
I gave you a job and you punched your superior.
I gave you a restaurant and sales halved in a month.
What's your goal in life?
Do you just want to kill time?
Why do you live?
I wonder.
Why do I live?
This is your last chance.
One more mistake...
and I won't forgive you. Get out.
Cheon Soo Ho.
I know you had a hard time because of that.
But you can't live like this forever.
One day...
you must get over it.
Can you do that?
I don't think I can forever.
However mindless I try to be.
He called you over after another incident?
You're quite impressive.
How come you never fail to get into trouble?
How will you survive if your father cuts you off?
You don't know how to do anything.
Mom, why would you say something like that?
Did you eat dinner?
Yes.
Soo Ho, no one here expects you to be worth the food you eat.
Just don't go and trash other people's lives.
You don't even clean it up.
We're getting cursed at because of your department store disaster.
I don't want to.
Your lecture just made me want to do worse.
Fine. What more could I ask from someone like you?
"Someone like me"?
You enjoy every right you have and never do any of your duties.
Like your mom.
Let's go, Mom.
What should I do?
Can we not find who posted it?
Why would you do that?
Ask the person to take it down.
I don't want anyone to find out about this.
You should come home earlier.
- Ji Hyeon. - What do I do?
Let's make something delicious.
How about cream spaghetti?
Let's stir-fry some bacon.
Add some mozzarella cheese.
Sprinkle some parsley.
Gosh, I'm tired.
Fine, I won't eat.
You're so cheap.
Hey.
Do you even know what day today is?
Do you know what happened to me at the department store?
They were uploaded by 136 different accounts so far.
We checked 30 of them,
but we haven't verified the rest.
No one has directly referred to Mr. Cheon Soo Ho.
Taeyang Group is one of the most searched keywords.
All right, let's do this.
Stop any articles from being published.
Cover the media with more shocking news...
so that it doesn't become an issue.
- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.
- Lawyer Shin. - Yes?
Find that woman and appease her.
If she wants money, give her as much as she wants.
What's wrong? You don't want to do it?
I'll do it.
I don't want to do it either.
What else can we do?
We have to do what our employer tells us to do.
Get started.
- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.
- Isn't it pretty? - It's not.
It has my initials too.
If you're going to talk on the phone all night, go outside.
I'm making a schedule.
You don't have a schedule.
Hello?
Is this Seol Ji Hyeon?
Yes, who is this?
How far are you going?
Stop, stop.
What are you doing?
How can you come to my house at this hour?
I called you.
I called you in front of your house.
What's that?
- Surveillance camera? - What?
You're planning to take photos by aggravating me.
- You planned it, didn't you? - What?
Did you get on your knees on purpose at the department store?
To secretly take photos and screw me over?
My goodness.
Why are you here?
Aren't you here to apologize?
You raised your voice when I came to apologize!
Who do you think you are?
Here.
Let's settle it with this.
What? Is it not enough?
What if I won't accept it?
Then things will get harder for you.
I'll go and hassle you every day at the department store.
I have a lot of time.
All of us die one day.
And yet, you act as if you'll live forever.
- What? - Why do you live that way?
You can do anything you want with your background.
Don't you think you're wasting your life?
What do you...
What?
What do you know about...
What are you doing?
What's wrong with him?
What are you doing?
What's wrong with him? What?
What's wrong with him?
Hey.
Goodness, wake up.
Mister.
Do you hear me? Do you know where we are?
Let's get a CT scan of his brain.
Call the neurosurgeon on call now.
- Please hurry. - Yes, doctor.
- Are you his guardian? - No.
Didn't you come with the patient?
I did.
We have to run some tests.
Please pay the hospital fees first.
Me? With my money?
Doctor Lee Hye Sun.
Who does he think I am?
What if someone takes it?
I'll keep it in case you lose it.
I'll return it when you wake up.
- Hello? - We have a problem. Come home now.
Gosh.
Goodness.
Do you run an arcade? What's with all the coins?
My goodness.
Darn it.
Hee Sook.
You should pay up for your own good.
Why should I pay?
- I'm also a victim. - Hey, hey.
Ji Hyeon.
What are you doing? I'm calling the police.
Go ahead. Let's see who gets arrested.
Do you know how much money your mom borrowed from me?
She's been running from me for quite a while now.
Listen, Ji Hyeon.
Let's not call the police.
Mom.
I'll show sympathy for old times' sake.
I'll give you a week.
Pay back by then, okay?
Give that to me.
Here you go, sir.
Goodness.
This is genuine, high-quality gasoline.
If something happens and you can't pay again,
I'll burn everything down.
Understand?
All right.
This is the only thing that's worth taking from this house.
It's this snake alcohol.
Snake alcohol. Thanks a lot.
Take that thing too.
This one?
- Goodness. - Bye, Hee Sook.
You have one week.
Goodness.
What happened?
Didn't you date that man?
I know.
He used to be so friendly.
Mom invested in stocks with his money.
The stocks were delisted.
They became worthless.
They said that the price will increase by five times in a month.
How much do you owe him?
It's...
It's 100,000,000 dollars.
They said that the price will increase by five times in a month.
How much do you owe him?
It's 100,000,000 dollars.
Don't do this, Ji Hyeon.
I don't care about Mom anymore.
It's been so many times.
You can't leave home. That's irresponsible.
- What? - It's true.
If you leave, what about me and Mom?
I've done enough.
When Mom wasted my tuition to invest in land,
I took a break from school and worked.
I paid for living expenses.
After you got into that prestigious college,
I gave up on going back to school.
Ji Hyeon.
You think you're always the victim. Things are hard for you only.
It's hard for me too.
It's really hard.
For you?
Ji Hyeon, where are you going?
Today is my birthday, Mom.
This is a present to myself, so don't stop me.
Is it your birthday? Why didn't you tell us?
Min Seok, where are you?
(I think you love work more than you love me.)
Seriously.
Gosh. Are you awake?
What is this?
Neural crest stem cells connect the nerve cells...
in your brain. That's where you have cancer.
We call it glioblastoma.
It's the most malignant of all brain tumors,
and the most difficult one too.
If a blood vessel is damaged during operation,
you could fall into a coma,
and never gain your consciousness again.
Even if you get the surgery and go through chemotherapy,
you can't live very long.
That's why getting an operation is meaningless.
Radiotherapy and chemotherapy...
can slow down the growth of the tumor,
but when you do that,
you'd also be killing normal cells along with it.
You must take that into consideration.
You're saying...
I have...
a tumor in my head the size of a potato.
I can't get a surgery,
and the most I have is six months.
Is that right?
In the case of glioblastoma,
if a surgery is possible,
the survival rate to get 3 more years is 10 percent.
But in your case,
the tumor is located in a place...
where a surgery would be too difficult.
Who told you to say that to me?
Was it my brother?
This is Soo Cheol's doing, isn't it?
Is he trying to ruin me?
Dr. Park Seung Min?
Doctor, I'm not going to die.
Why would I die?
Hey!
Are you okay?
- Did you bring me here? - Yes.
You surprised me when you fainted so suddenly.
What did the doctor say?
Who else knows about me coming here?
Just me.
I was trying to contact your family,
but I couldn't because your phone was locked.
I'm fine, so go home.
Stop bothering me.
Gosh. I made time to come here.
Hey! Hey.
I paid for your tests.
You should at least pay me back for that.
Gosh.
Stop.
Gosh.
Are you okay?
What will you do about it if I'm not okay?
I don't know.
Hey, about the money you were going to give me...
I kept it with me in case you lose it.
I'll return you the money minus what I paid for the tests.
Gosh.
Where did it go?
What kind of nonsense are you spewing?
I'm so tired.
Hey! Wait!
Hey! I promise to return the money!
I'll keep a portion of it since I paid for the tests!
Gosh.
(Glioblastoma)
This is our newest menu.
How do you like the supreme de lait?
We're studying the customer reaction...
before we launch it...
to the other branches next year.
- Next year? - Yes.
Don't talk about next year.
Do something you can do right away.
Okay?
What's the matter?
- Go get me a digestive medicine. - Yes, sir.
You can't go in right now!
Gosh.
I came to ask you something.
If you can't believe what I told you earlier,
you should get tested at another hospital.
Why?
Why did I get such a disease out of everyone?
I don't even use my brain that much.
Why me...
What did I do so wrong?
There's something I always say...
to the patients that do not have much to live.
Having regrets about the time you wasted...
only leads to more time wasted.
You should think about...
how to spend the rest of your time...
in a meaningful way.
Time is always limited,
to each and every one of us.
Stop your nonsense.
Hey. Hey. Where is this money from?
- No. - Give it to me.
Are you crazy?
How can you give that money to Mom without asking me?
You would say no if I asked you.
Mom promised to return it in one day.
- It'll take care of the emergency. - And you believed her?
What can I do? She's our mom.
This is driving me crazy.
Where did you get that money from? There was 10,000 dollars.
That's the cost of my pride.
You have to pay me back if Mom wastes it.
- I'm not responsible. - Wait.
What?
Ta-da! I know I'm late, but it's your birthday present.
If you pass your test, it could be a congratulatory...
Give it to me at home.
That means you'll come home, right?
I'll be waiting!
Welcome to W Department Store full of love.
Please have a great time shopping.
Welcome to W Department Store full of love.
Please have a great time shopping.
I'm sorry, sir,
but you can't park here.
I spend so much money here.
Wait!
You're not busy, are you?
Yes. I'm on my break.
What are you doing here?
I dropped by since I was passing.
Have you heard about the incident?
I guess you did.
Well, it happened to the son of the chairman,
so of course you know.
You should quit your job.
Why?
It makes me angry that you're working here.
It's only a part-time job anyway.
It's hard to find part-time jobs these days.
And why should I quit?
What did I do wrong?
I'm not telling you to quit because you did wrong.
You don't have to put up with that to work.
Will people treat me better anywhere else?
Taeyang announced their new hires.
I didn't get in.
I don't want to be jobless.
This job isn't as hard as you think it is.
It can be fun at times.
Don't worry.
The chairman's son apologized.
He came to my place to say sorry.
Did he?
Yes.
I have to get back to work. Take care.
Bye.
- See you. - Bye.
I'll find you dates.
- Yes? - Don't be shy.
- Come on. - Don't cry.
It'll be fun.
Come in and have a good time.
Come on, it'll be nice.
I'm envious.
Everyone here...
will outlive me.
27 years.
I lived a while.
When I die,
will I become a star?
Hello?
Hey.
Let's party tonight.
Gather the kids.
Let's drink until we die!
Did you really?
Did you really lose all that money?
In just one day?
Have you heard of an FX margin deal?
You can profit if you invest in the right foreign currency.
- If it works... - Mom, please!
Will you just stop it?
Ji Hyeon was right.
I don't trust you anymore.
Ji Eun, where are you going?
Seriously?
You stomped off as if you'd never come back.
I told you that people never change.
When can I start?
When can you start?
Tonight.
Okay.
Ji Eun, while you were away
I told you I'd work hard
You are my everything, you are our ace
Are you drunk?
However much you had to drink,
you can't do that to your older brother.
Even if you're illegitimate.
You think your dad has your back.
When he gets old and weak, you're totally out.
You won't get a penny.
I'll lock you up in a psych ward just like your mom.
Stop, stop.
Are you crazy?
Move!
Soo Ho, Soo Ho. That's really dangerous.
Listen carefully.
I don't want to live.
I can just die.
But...
I won't go out on my own.
Never.
Do you get that?
Yes.
Now go home.
You lunatic.
- Hey! - Yes, sir.
Bring me alcohol.
- Yes, sir. - Wait.
I need something else.
Hey, Chae A.
I need to tell you something tonight.
It's about our marriage.
Yes. It's important.
So come over quick.
I'll wait for you.
Go on.
Sit down.
Do you want some?
- Forget it then. - Why not?
No one's home?
Ji Hyeon, Ji Eun, I'm sorry.
I just don't think I can pay it all back.
Don't look for me.
Darn it.
Soo Ho.
Where is he?
He's asleep.
He's fast asleep.
He hasn't paid me yet.
Are you his fiancee?
I'm not sure if you'll believe me,
but we didn't do anything.
He said he'd pay me for dressing up.
But...
I guess he really didn't want to get married.
Get it.
Pick it up and I'll pay you.
Get that too.
Why? You can't do it?
You're here for the money.
(Ji Hyeon)
The number you have dialed is not available. Please leave a message.
Seol Ji Eun.
Why aren't you home yet?
Mom left home.
Come over when you hear this.
What's that look?
I get it now.
It means, "Must I do this of all things now?"
It's the chairman's orders.
Find his son and figure out what happened last night.
He and his brother got into a fight.
He's not picking up.
Okay.
Sir.
- Did you bring the key? - Yes.
Hey.
Call 911.
Hey.
What happened?
Where is Ji Eun? I have to see her.
- Let me go. I have to see Ji Eun. - Calm down.
I have to see her!
Ji Eun.
Min Seok, what now?
Do you have a pen?
Thanks.
Ji Eun.
Ji Eun, wake up.
Ji Eun. Ji Eun.
A reference witness? Not a suspect?
Help me.
My sister died.
They said it's suicide.
There's no way she killed herself.
I'm going to die anyway. What do I care?
So, are you saying I killed her?
Do you think that makes sense?
I want an autopsy.
Let's do it.
