(Episode 34)
Director Kang, are you...
interested in Ms. Yoo?
If that's how you feel about her,
you should stop now. You can't be with her.
Why are you telling me this?
Ms. Yoo is not a good match for you. You know that.
Ms. Shin, why are you telling me...
It's because...
I like you.
I admire you,
as a partner and colleague.
I'm afraid you might make a choice you will regret later on.
It worries me.
I make my own choices.
More importantly,
what do you know about Ms. Yoo?
Everything you know about her.
Of course, I don't know what happened between you two.
But I know what she used to do in the past.
What? How did you find out?
That's not important right now.
I think you're drawn to her out of curiosity.
It may be that simple for you,
but that, in itself, could hurt her.
Showing such pity and sympathy...
I bet she has experienced it many times.
I get that we're colleagues and partners,
but you're out of line.
No.
Since you're both on my team,
I believe I have the right to say this.
You shouldn't meddle in your teammates' personal lives.
You have no right to do this, and it's none of your business.
- Director Kang! - I know to draw the line...
between work and my personal life,
so that's enough.
This is making me uncomfortable.
I'm not wrong,
and I'm sure you already know that.
Kang Sun Woo.
Do you really have feelings for Yoo Eun Sung?
That guy.
Isn't he the guy who took the cat's heart?
But why?
Ms. Shin?
Does this mean the cat is...
Ms. Shin Ha Young?
What is the feeling that I have for Ms. Yoo?
I think you're drawn to her out of curiosity.
It may be that simple for you,
but that, in itself, could hurt her.
Showing such pity and sympathy...
I bet she has experienced it many times.
I pity her?
I feel sorry for her?
No, that's not how I feel at all.
There's nothing that can beat a desperate desire.
One day,
the world will recognize...
your sincerity.
And it's not just curiosity. It's not that simple.
This can't be. Why would he like Yoo Eun Sung?
No. I'm sure that's not the case.
His feelings for her must be temporary.
He never said that he liked her.
I didn't know she had a boyfriend.
I mean, just because she was with him at night,
that doesn't necessarily mean he's her boyfriend, though.
Even so, I'm sorry.
For making you upset. I was thoughtless.
It won't happen again.
I'll never make you think of your past again.
He's unexpectedly thoughtful.
It wasn't his fault.
Then let's have a meal together since we made up.
All right.
I may not be as wealthy as he is,
but I'll treat him to a meal as his good heart impressed me.
My goodness. I haven't seen you in a while.
I might forget how you look.
I will never forget your face, so don't worry.
Right. Dad often gets on our nerves, but he has a lot of money.
To make sure to inherit his fortune,
we must maintain the blood tie...
Stop talking and eat your food quietly.
Everything that comes out of your mouth makes me hate you.
Honey, how about you take a cooking class?
A cooking class?
Yes.
There's one held at Royal Hotel.
The chef who studied in France teaches the class.
But Mother doesn't cook.
She doesn't even cook ramyeon by herself anymore.
Hey, I don't even cook ramyeon? That's not true.
I made this kimchi here.
And I made these seasoned vegetables by myself.
Well, I bet the housekeeper prepared everything including the sauce,
and all you did was mix everything. Am I right?
Your dad told you to eat your food quietly, didn't he?
Anyway, why did you suggest the idea?
Well...
I know you feel uneasy...
while waiting to hear from Kyung Sun.
If you have something to distract yourself,
it'll help you a lot.
I don't know.
Learning to cook French cuisine?
Mom, you should take the class.
It'll be quite fancy since it's held at Royal Hotel.
Royal Hotel?
Yes. The daughter of the butcher shop lady said...
that she had seen Mr. Park and his wife there.
What?
That jerk who ran away with our money...
is enjoying a wealthy life?
He lied to me in tears...
that his father was terminally ill.
Goodness, you. You're the one who fell for his ridiculous lie.
I heard that Mr. Park had lost his father in his 20s.
That was as long as 30 years ago.
Tell us. Exactly where did she see him?
What was he doing there?
She didn't know the details since she saw him in the lobby.
You said that the daughter of the butcher shop owner...
- worked part-time at Royal Hotel. - Yes.
She didn't recognize him at first because he looked so luxurious,
but she knew it was him when she heard his unique high-pitched voice.
I see.
Those darn scums.
I guess they've been living happily since they took our money.
What did you say?
You asked her to call you when they showed up again, right?
Yes. I gave her all of our numbers.
Gosh, those ungrateful jerks.
When I catch them, I'll pull all of their hair out.
Royal Hotel?
Yes.
They run a cooking class at the hotel.
Ki Seok suggested I should take the class with you.
Well... I'll pass.
I'm not interested in cooking.
If you want to go, go without me.
I said it would be held at a hotel.
You like to go to a hotel.
You said you wanted to go to a fancy place...
on a regular basis as rich ladies do.
Well... I know I said that.
But I meant going to a restaurant.
I don't want to learn to cook.
You're acting so strange.
Did they find a serious problem when you had the health check-up?
No, it's not like that.
Just let me try some delicious food...
that you learn to make.
All right. I understand.
Call me if you change your mind.
Something's going on with her.
It's painful enough to see her just for a while.
Then how could I spend all day with her while learning to cook?
FCFS.
As they say, the face completes a fashion style.
The combination of my handsome face and this outfit...
makes the outfit look more fabulous.
It looks much better than it looked in the store.
Nice.
- Come in. - Father.
I'm going grocery shopping.
Will you go to the cafe?
Yes. I'll have a cup of coffee...
and meet Mr. Im there.
I was going to meet him last night, but it was canceled.
Why are you going to see Mr. Im?
Since he started dating Ms. Chu behind your back,
you firmly decided never to see him again.
That's true.
But I have some things to make clear to him.
What do you mean?
Ms. Chu chose him over me...
because she had an unusual taste in men,
not because I was less attractive than him.
I'll let him know that by showing off my fashion sense.
Oh, I think that's a great idea.
Mr. Im will admit it when he sees you.
He'll see your incredible charisma and irresistible charms...
and understand that it was simply her own PP.
"PP?"
You use more modern terms than I do these days.
PP, as in personal preference.
Right. I respect her personal preference.
I'll tell him these things over a cup of coffee.
That will cheer me up.
- Right, Father. - Yes.
What?
(Haha Chicken, Good Day for Coffee)
This is the outfit that I bought for the young cop.
I don't think it belongs to you.
Oh, my. Hello, sir.
It looked so fabulous...
that I wanted to try it. So I borrowed it from him.
Oh, you think this is fabulous?
Yes, I do. I mean, it's difficult to understand...
but at the same time, very artistic like Picasso's paintings.
And it seems to be ahead of the time.
I'm impressed. You know much about fashion.
How about we go shopping together sometime?
I know a place where you can find clothes...
that look more futuristic than this one.
That'd be great.
We really should go shopping together sometime.
I heard I had a good fashion sense when I was younger.
But I run a fried chicken place now.
Come on. Running a restaurant can't be an excuse.
An FL must always dress nicely.
Pardon?
Oh, I get it.
It means fashion leader, right?
You know the term.
A true FL never blames his circumstances.
You should know how to dress well despite your limitations.
That's what a true fashion leader would do.
That's a really great remark.
Never blame your circumstances.
Do you have some free time?
Shall we have a little chat over a cup of coffee?
Oh, I'm sorry.
I have to renew my health card today.
What a shame.
I met someone whom I could talk about fashion with after a while.
Grandpa, you're here.
Yes.
Can I have today's special coffee?
You seem to be in a good mood.
I am, indeed. I met someone whom I would hit it off with.
Hit it off?
Did someone offer to set you up on a blind date?
Or will you go to a dance club with that person?
Since he's married, we can't go on a double blind date.
But I think we can go to a dance club together.
We'll go and show off our dance skills.
By the way, who is he?
Oh, he's the owner of the chicken restaurant.
The owner of the chicken restaurant?
But... No way. He doesn't seem like the type to go to a dance club.
You brat. You just don't know.
Quiet and gentle people like him have suppressed desires inside them.
"I long for everything that I'm forbidden to have."
Why do you think there's a quote like this?
When I saw him in the outfit that I bought for his son,
I felt it.
What?
The restaurant owner longs for forbidden things?
What?
How dare you seduce Kang Sun Woo?
Before Kang Sun Woo falls more deeply for her,
I should stop it by any means.
Eun Sung.
Yes.
How about a snack break?
Sure, that sounds good.
I have no idea why I always get hungry at this time of day.
You're slim, so you can eat a lot.
Anyway, where is everyone else?
Oh, they're all attending a promotional event.
I see.
Anyway, how's work for you these days?
You and Director Kang get along, right?
Yes, he's nice to me.
Yes, he is nice.
He may seem cold, but he's more caring and considerate...
than anyone else I know.
That's why I like Director Kang.
I see.
Pardon me?
This is my first time sharing this with someone.
You won't tell anyone, right?
Right. If you want me to keep it to myself, I will.
Thankfully, he doesn't seem uninterested in me.
So I'm doing my best to charm him at the moment.
What do you think? The two of us as a couple.
Oh, I think you two would make a cute couple.
You think so too?
People already think we're dating even though no one talks about it,
but I don't want anyone to think that I'm not good enough for him,
knowing his social status. I don't want him to be embarrassed.
I see.
(Team "Hidden Memory")
So, Ms. Shin and Director Kang are practically a couple.
Right, you need to be at her level...
to date someone like Director Kang.
Is the person Director Kang said he was interested in...
Ms. Shin?
Do you get it now?
You shouldn't even dream of being with a man like Kang Sun Woo.
What's up?
Aren't you very busy? Why did you want to have coffee with me?
I just wanted to talk to you about some things.
Why? Did something happen?
Does it involve a woman?
It does, right? You're seeing someone.
I knew it. No wonder you turned down the blind date at once.
Who is this lady that melted your cold heart?
It can't actually be the cat.
Is it?
Is it the cat?
How did you know?
For real? Is it really that cat?
I don't believe this.
I only said it as a joke because Ms. Shin was asking me about it.
What? Ms. Shin?
Oh, forget it.
But you know what the cat used to do in the past.
She no longer has that job.
She quit.
She completely changed her career.
But she did it in the past...
How did this happen?
Why did you fall for her when you just needed your jacket back?
I haven't fallen for her yet.
At the moment, she's just on my mind.
But I think I should find out how I really feel about her.
Whether you really like her or not?
Whether you should go for it or stop now?
That look on your face tells me that you might really like her.
I think you'll go for it.
I told you. I'm seriously debating what to do.
If you want my honest opinion,
I'm against this.
I won't support it even if it's just a fling.
Director Kang, shouldn't you think about your parents?
You went against your father's wishes and became a film director,
but you're still the eldest son of the KS Foodville family.
You can't just follow your heart and do whatever you want.
You should stop now. The two of you can't be together.
It'd be different if you didn't know her past.
She'll be hurt, and you'll have a hard time too.
(Mr. Kim)
This exhibition about Korean films is taking place in Daehak-ro.
Check it out. It'll help you take your mind off things.
He went out to get his health card.
Why isn't he back yet?
He gets excited like a little puppy every time he goes out.
What?
Oh, it's the butcher shop owner's daughter.
Hello?
What?
Mr. Park's wife showed up?
Okay, I'll be right there.
I'll be sure to catch this woman today.
How could she stay at a hotel with someone else's money?
Hey, Mr. Park's wife.
Yoo Dong Gu's wife? What are you doing here?
Hey, you're dead meat.
That little...
Stop right there, you witch!
Gosh, my back.
Nice!
Oh, she's the lady from Haha Chicken.
My gosh. What's wrong? Are you all right?
- See that woman? Please catch her. - Sorry?
That woman ran off with my family's money.
She's a thief.
A thief?
Has she passed the baton to that woman?
What is this, a relay race?
Who is she?
Where did she go?
It's a dead end.
Oh, boy. Thank goodness.
I caught you, woman!
My gosh. You caught her?
Yes, I caught her.
My goodness.
This is ridiculous. What is this? Are you two a couple?
You little...
Where is your husband? Where is he now?
My husband? He's not here now.
Don't you dare think you can trick me.
If you do, you'll never be able to think again!
Gosh. My husband went to Vietnam on a golf trip.
What? "Golf?"
"Golf?"
You thieves.
- Hey. - My gosh!
I want my money back. Give me back my money!
You caught a thief?
You ran like Usain Bolt and caught a thief?
That's right. The thief's wife, to be more accurate.
I'd say I looked more like Griffith Joyner than Usain Bolt.
You know, the legendary track and field athlete.
I must say, she has some nerve.
How could she go to a hotel with someone else's money?
Only such shameless people...
can borrow money with no intention of paying it back.
Anyway, Jin Sil.
The lady at Haha Chicken should be very grateful...
that you had your school reunion there today.
I know. I happened to be there right at that moment.
I'm so thankful that I could help her.
Mom. By the way,
I thought you and that lady would be on bad terms forever.
Why did you decide to help her?
She nearly fell and asked me to catch the thief.
When I heard that, I automatically started sprinting.
Even I had no idea that I was so athletic.
You're a Korean mother after all.
You become stronger in times of crisis.
My goodness. Jin Sil, so what happened to that swindler's wife?
Did you drag her to the police station to put her behind bars?
Father, it's not easy to send someone to jail these days.
The Haha Chicken lady called her husband and went to her house.
She said she should gauge their financial situation first.
What?
The movie that came out last month is on the cover.
One day, I'll see our film on the cover too.
Hi, Da Jung. It's been a while.
What? My script?
Yes, I found your script while cleaning out the lockers.
I was going to just chuck it, knowing you already left Blue Moon.
But I could feel your passion and determination, so I called you.
Oh, I see. I left it there.
What do you want to do?
Will you stop by to pick it up?
It'd be nice to catch up in person. It's been a while, you know.
Shall I stop by?
Oh, but Han Si Heon and Yang Ju Ri are there.
I don't want to see them ever again.
Don't you worry.
We're deep-cleaning the theater today, so they won't come.
Really? Then I'll stop by after work.
Yes. Let's catch up in Daehak-ro. It's been too long.
All right.
It really has been so long.
Blue Moon.
The place that was once filled with my dreams.
Good work.
- Thank you. - Good work, everyone.
Aren't you leaving too?
Not yet. I want to finish going through this.
Okay, then.
Eun Sung, I heard a tteokbokki place had opened nearby.
- Shall we have some together? - I'm sorry. I have plans.
Eun Sung said she'd meet someone in Daehak-ro.
So I offered her a ride.
I'll go there comfortably thanks to you.
Thank you.
No problem. You can buy me a cup of coffee tomorrow.
Then we'll get going now.
See you tomorrow, Ms. Shin.
Given that she'll ride Jae Jun's car,
she's not going there to see Kang Sun Woo, right?
Sir.
I saw the others leaving. What are you doing alone?
I'll just finish what I'm doing and then leave.
Oh, no. You work too hard.
I'll give you a ticket for a photography exhibition.
Go and get some fresh air.
I mean, it's Friday. And we're not working tomorrow.
That's okay. I...
Director Kang said he'd go there too.
Why don't you have dinner with him?
Pardon? Director Kang will be there?
Da Jung, where are you? I'm almost there.
Oh, I see.
Are you sure no one's in the theater?
Then I'll wait inside.
Okay.
I haven't come here in a while.
This is where I met Ms. Yoo for the first time.
I didn't know I would become acquainted with Cat.
Many things have changed since then.
(Yoo Eun Sung, "The Dream of Their Own")
(I missed you so much that I felt like I was going crazy.)
(My name is Julia. I'm the daughter of a shoe repairman.)
My, I practiced really hard.
Where is this place?
Should I go that way?
To get to the exhibition venue?
(Blue Moon)
What?
This is...
(Blue Moon)
(Yoo Eun Sung, "The Dream of Their Own")
(My name is Julia. I'm the daughter of a shoe repairman.)
"My name is Julia."
"I'm the daughter of a shoe repairman."
(Blue Moon)
Wait.
("The Dream of Their Own")
It's a theater play.
(Planned and produced by Theater Blue Moon)
"Theater Blue Moon."
(Blue Moon)
Was Blue Moon a theater company?
I'm going to build...
my own world.
Ms. Yoo?
My name is Yoo Eun Sung.
I'm the daughter of the owner of Haha Chicken.
But I...
want to become an actress.
I will become an actress.
Although I haven't achieved anything yet...
Although no one knows me as an actress...
I still...
want to live...
as an actress.
Even though this is a long detour,
I will follow the path.
Until one day...
I reach the end of the path.
Ms. Yoo.
Oh, my. Who are you?
What?
Wait. Director Kang?
- By the way, were you an actress? - Yes.
He said Kang Sun Woo would come.
Then what kind of job did you think I had?
- Darn. Ouch. - But it doesn't mean...
there's nothing going on between...
Boo! What are you murmuring about?
Whoever will become his girlfriend, I'm worried about her.
What?
Goodness. I can't believe this.
I think I should let you know my honest feelings...
before it's too late.
