(Episode 82)
About my request last time...
The issue about removing Eun Sung from the cast of the movie?
Yes. Did you...
find a way?
I guess there is a way.
Ms. Shin, please help me.
I need to take this opportunity to make sure...
Sun Woo and Eun Sung break up.
Mother.
Yes?
The way to get Eun Sung off the cast of the movie...
There is none. There's no way to remove her.
What?
As I told you before, Ms. Yoo...
was chosen fairly through an open audition.
Even if I'm the producer in charge of the production team,
I can't remove someone like her from the cast on my own.
Ms. Shin.
I explained myself for you to understand.
Yes,
I understand what you want,
but Ms. Yoo...
is the actress we need in our movie.
As the producer,
I have to put the movie first.
Gosh, you're missing your chance...
to get close to Sun Woo.
Even still,
I know how to separate my work life from my private life.
I've made mistakes in the past...
because of my feelings for Director Kang,
but I don't want to do that again.
That's the least I could do...
to thank Director Kang for believing in me as a producer.
Ms. Shin.
What the...
Why did Ms. Shin change her mind all of a sudden?
She acted like she would cooperate last time.
Yes, I did the right thing.
I can't take Eun Sung off of the cast.
She has to stay for the movie.
If you have the obligation to reveal the truth about society...
and look into it,
you shouldn't ignore it.
It's one thing if I, the producer, didn't see her passion,
but she's perfect for the part of Ye Won.
Also,
if I hadn't seen Detective Yoo...
(Trusted Police Who Are With the Citizens)
Detective Yoo!
Oh, Ha Young.
Are you here for a consultation?
Well... Yes.
Okay, then.
Detective Yoo.
Do you have some time to talk?
When I saw you at the cafe two days ago,
I was really happy to see you.
But when you left without saying anything, how should I put it...
I was sad. No, maybe more disappointed.
Aren't I ridiculous?
I was happy to see you too.
But...
we decided to go our separate ways.
You're the only person who ever told me...
I was a good person and that I was warm-hearted.
I think I was too indifferent to you.
I'm sorry.
It's okay.
I believe you were honest with your feelings.
Rather,
I used the pretense of our friendship to stay by your side.
When...
I liked you.
Do you still think that I'm a good person?
That I'm warm-hearted?
Why?
Did something happen?
I have an important decision to make,
and I just wanted to hear what you thought.
Yes,
I think you're a good person.
I believe that you're warm-hearted.
Regardless of your decision,
I trust that you'll end up making...
the right decision.
Thank you for saying that...
without changing your mind.
Right. I made the right choice.
The good choice.
Yes?
You're here.
Why did you ask me to come here?
The other actors were there in the morning,
so we couldn't talk.
Have a seat.
I heard you talked to your sister yesterday.
I was worried that you might've gotten hurt by what she said.
I'm pretty sure my brother...
said something similar to you.
So what do you think?
I'm not sure.
But...
I don't think this is something we can be stubborn about...
and insist they understand.
Eun Sung, what's wrong?
We agreed not to waver.
That we'd get through everything together.
I would do that if it was just about the two of us.
If it was a problem...
where I would suffer alone and we can overcome it together.
But that's not it.
This is about our families.
Eun Sung.
Everyone's saying they're unhappy because of us.
They're saying that it'll be hard even if we stay together.
How could we ignore all of that?
But our feelings for each other haven't changed.
I'm still so excited and happy...
just seeing you in front of me.
Let's...
take some time to think about things,
like what we should do for everyone's sake...
and what path we should take to make everyone happy.
Eun Sung.
I'll get going then.
What? Where did you get flowers in the middle of the winter?
I plan to propose to the person that I like today.
Propose?
You like someone?
Yes, but it's a bit ridiculous that you're the one...
asking me that question.
Why? Oh, my!
Is he someone I know?
Do you really not know or are you pretending not to know?
Let me try guessing.
Is it the guy who comes to the cafe often?
The one with the thick lips.
The guy who gave you the cookie.
No! I hate guys with thick lips!
He's not a chick or a duck,
but he looks like he has a beak.
Then is it the guy with thick brows?
No, it's not!
The only things I like thick are soups...
like jjampong, soybean paste stew, and bone broth.
Here. This is for you.
Why are you giving this to me?
I'm proposing right now.
I really like you, Mr. Shin.
What?
I, Kang Sun Ju, like you, Mr. Shin.
I like you.
I love you!
What?
(Haha Chicken, Coffee)
Gosh, it's cold. The temperature dropped out of nowhere.
I love you!
- I love you! - Oh, my gosh!
Gosh!
What are you doing?
Oh, are you here, Ma'am?
You should've come a little later.
This was a pivotal moment for us.
A pivotal moment?
If you came in just five seconds later...
What were you going to do?
We weren't doing anything.
But we were about to...
What?
Yes, it's exactly what you're thinking of.
I was about to do that to Mr. Shin...
Listen here, young lady. My gosh.
Don't seduce my naive son.
What? I'm seducing him?
I guess that's not wrong.
My son is seeing someone else,
so don't approach him.
I already have someone in mind who will do that to him.
What? There's someone else who will do that to him?
Yes!
What...
Mi Sun...
Let's talk.
In the article you wrote,
you failed to include the report on...
the Yangil Pharmaceutical victims or the results of the clinical trials.
Hey.
You don't know anything, so stop acting up.
Why? Do you feel guilty about something?
Are you scared...
that I'll find out you took a bribe?
Hey.
Who are you to act like you're so righteous?
How old are you?
Hold on.
What is it? I'm completely in character right now.
Hey, there's still a lot more left in this scene.
If you raise your voice like that already, how will you finish?
Can you maintain that tone and emotion until the end?
Without dropping your tone?
Do you think I'm not capable of completing a scene?
You're already running out of breath.
I wouldn't say anything if it was Eun Sung.
Are you saying Eun Sung is better than me?
Then do you think you're better?
Let's be honest.
Eun Sung has always been better at acting than you.
That's why Eun Sung is Ye Won and you're Mi Sun.
Han Si Heon.
Do you have a death wish?
How dare you run your mouth with that nonsense?
Gosh, you have such a bad temper.
You always get mad if something upsets you.
That's enough.
If you want to fight, go outside and do it.
Don't do this in the practice studio.
Stop acting so high and mighty because you're playing Ye Won.
I'm going to get some water, so wait.
Since when was she an actress?
She only did chores when she was in the theater company.
About Yoo Eun Sung from the "Hidden Memory" team...
- Did she get the part fairly? - Why?
Oh, because of the rumors she's in a relationship with the director?
Yes, there was a rumor...
that she approached Director Kang with ulterior motives.
What? Yoo Eun Sung hit on Director Kang?
That's why Ms. Shin was so mad.
But she ended up getting the part.
It's suspicious.
But Director Kang wasn't a part of her audition.
The same goes for Ms. Shin.
Exactly. It's more weird that they weren't one of the judges.
If he didn't have a relationship with Yoo Eun Sung,
why didn't he judge it?
It's not like Ye Won is a small part.
Is that how it is?
They said it was because she was a part of the team,
and they wanted to make it fair.
You can make anything up to justify your actions.
Who knows if all of that is just a cover?
Yoo Eun Sung.
Are you really seeing the director?
I guess every man does have his own trade.
What? What did you ask Ms. Shin to do?
Remove Yoo Eun Sung from the movie?
Yes.
But Ms. Shin acted like she would help me,
but she came out today and completely changed her mind.
She said as the producer,
she can't do anything that will be a loss to the movie.
Ms. Shin said the right thing.
You were asking her for too much.
You said you needed to take special measures,
and this is what you came up with?
I wouldn't have done that if I had any other options.
It's because I really hated Yoo Dong Gu's daughter.
Even still, that's wrong.
You can't remove an actor without the director's confirmation.
Exactly.
I was wondering if there was a reason that would force him to confirm.
I was wondering if Ms. Shin knew anything.
My goodness.
If there was such a thing,
she wouldn't have gotten the part to begin with.
I feel the same way you do,
but you shouldn't approach this matter like that.
Then what should I do?
You want me to watch the kids stay close to each other?
What if those young kids...
end up getting pregnant or something?
So Eun Sung heard what you were saying.
What about Sun Woo?
Do you think he changed his mind after talking to you?
I'm not sure. He seemed really frustrated...
since he had no way of resolving this situation either.
If I think about the kids, I feel bad,
but what choice do we have?
If there's no path, you shouldn't take it.
And if you're not meant to be, you're not meant to be.
I know this isn't something to bring up in this situation,
but Sun Woo would've made a good son-in-law.
I really thought he was Eun Sung's perfect...
That's why I said...
it wasn't something to bring up in this situation.
Why would you say that in this situation?
You only made things worse.
Sun Woo is quite nice.
He's pretty noble...
Oh, right. I heard someone has moved into the back room.
A woman who lives alone.
What?
Right.
But she's...
going to move out.
She won't be here long.
How would you know if she'll be for long or not?
I bumped into her the other day,
and she said something came up, and has to move.
Oh, really?
After she moved into the room we redid the wallpapers for?
I should go talk to her.
I'll tell her to give us a portion of the wallpapering costs.
No, you don't have to.
It's fine as long as she keeps it clean.
What do you mean it's fine?
It's not like we're a charity.
Since when was she a part of the team?
Why would she make such a fuss and go there?
They must've told her to come.
If they didn't, why would she go?
You're really getting on my nerves today.
Enough.
Eating is important.
Let's fight after we eat.
By the way,
don't you think there's something strange going on...
between Director Kang and Eun Sung?
What?
It looks like they have a fling.
Or maybe they're playing games?
A fling? Playing games?
When I'm sitting right here?
Gosh, you're funny.
Enough with your nonsense.
When will you come to your senses?
Sometime in the far future.
This is for you, Ms. Yoo.
I came because you told me to,
but I'm not sure if I belong here.
Come on.
You were a part of our team not too long ago.
It'll make us sad if you keep your distance from us.
She's right.
We're just eating the snacks Mr. Kim got everyone.
How's practice going?
It seemed like you came early this morning.
Oh, did you see me?
On my way in. By chance.
This is a hard opportunity to come by,
so I want to do my best and be left with no regrets.
Right. I'm certain you'll do a good job.
You went through so much.
You were going to audition, then you changed your mind,
and after Mr. Kim suggested it, you ended up auditioning.
I know. I almost lost the chance...
to play the part of Ye Won.
If Mr. Kim hadn't suggested that I audition,
I almost had to watch someone else play Ye Won.
Oh, right. I heard Director Kang was going to oversee your acting later.
Yes. He wants to check...
what the actors have been practicing.
Infuse the directions Director Kang gives you...
and make sure you make it on-screen...
as Ye Won without any issues.
Being able to play Ye Won...
might not be solely because of your capabilities.
Right. That's why I want to do my best.
I'm able to play her thanks to the help of a lot of people.
Excuse me, Director Kang.
Eun Sung.
You're here early.
There's still some time left before everyone will get here.
Where did you go?
I went to the team office.
They asked me to have snacks with them.
I see.
Eun Sung, we...
shouldn't make our decision quickly...
and take some time to think.
But...
the more we drag this out,
it'll be harder on both our families.
But consider staying together...
more than breaking up.
What?
So the two of them are dating?
It seems like it.
Eun Sung.
My feelings haven't changed.
I've told you several times.
So regardless of what it is,
don't think about it alone, and let's think about it together.
Everyone will be here soon.
Let go of my hand...
I know you feel the same way I do.
How intense.
It's unbelievable that people didn't know about them.
I know. I should've figured this out sooner.
Yoo Eun Sung. I see you've gotten smarter.
(Good Day for Coffee)
Here you go.
Have a warm cup of coffee.
It'll warm you up from the inside out.
Thank you.
Are you here alone?
Yes. My grandson went out to have dinner with his son,
and the part-timer...
Your niece had a morning shift and went home.
I see.
Don't worry about anything.
The owners of the chicken restaurant won't come here.
Chicken restaurants are the busiest at night.
That's true,
but even when I came into the cafe, I was extra careful.
I double-checked the door of the chicken restaurant...
to make sure I left no stone unturned.
Of course. There's no harm in being careful.
After...
I told you about my past,
I came to think that apart from asking my sister for forgiveness,
I should see Eun A and Eun Hyuk...
and ask them for forgiveness too.
Oh, the show host and the police officer?
Yes.
Honestly, I really want to see the kids too,
but I can't approach them because of my situation.
Should I invite the show host and the police officer over?
If you can't approach them,
it'll be hard for you to ask them for forgiveness.
At least see their faces.
Mr. Shin!
It's Chun Young!
Can you lend us some coke?
We got an order for delivery,
but we just ran out.
Oh, okay.
Thank you.
- Here you go. - What?
Oh, right. Thank you.
- When we get more tomorrow... - Right.
- Okay. - Right...
Hurry up and go.
- You must be busy. - Right.
- You should increase your sales. - Right.
Gosh, you have so many customers today.
- Right. - Okay.
- Goodness. - That surprised me.
Gosh, she scared me half to death.
I was scared out of my wits too.
My hands were shaking as I handed her the coke.
- Goodness. - Mr. Shin,
you said nobody from the chicken restaurant...
would come at this hour.
This has never happened before!
But they just happened to run out of coke today.
My gosh.
Oh, my heart.
Goodness.
- Here. - Okay.
(Haha Chicken)
- Give it here. - Take this.
The grandfather across the street...
must be seeing a new woman.
- A new woman? - Yes.
Why?
Is he with someone?
He was with a mysterious woman,
and when I came in,
she quickly covered her face.
If they weren't seeing each other, why would she do that?
But if she's his girlfriend,
why would she cover her face?
What's wrong with being in love?
You're right.
Is it someone we know?
Maybe she's embarrassed?
Someone we know? Who?
I don't know.
In any case, he's incredible.
You said our tenant is someone he knows.
Where does he meet all these women?
He said our tenant is just a friend.
Someone he met by chance.
Someone he met by chance?
That's suspicious.
There's something strange about that phrase.
My gosh. What's so strange about that?
Don't jump to conclusions.
He said they're just friends.
Soulmates.
Soulmates?
So Sun Woo, how are things going with your movie?
You're done casting the actors.
The staff has been set up,
and all we have left is the shoot.
We're going over the details.
Will your box office hit be born soon?
"Hidden Memory," a movie that the media is interested in.
What's the point of people being interested?
The people next to him should suit him too.
Excuse me.
Go ahead.
Hello?
Yes.
What? What did you say?
Here you go.
Eun Sung, eat up.
If you want to practice your lines or do anything, you need energy.
He's right. In order to endure things...
Eun Sung, what is this?
Isn't this about you and Sun Woo?
What?
"Suspicions About the Casting of 'Hidden Memory.'"
What kind of nonsense is this?
"Open Auditions for the Director's Girlfriend?"
This is a false report that has no evidence to support it.
It's fake news.
In any case, the article is saying...
that Yoo Eun Sung got the part through the auditions...
because she's your girlfriend.
That you chose her for the role because she's your girlfriend.
How could they...
They wrote this on their own without checking the facts.
My gosh.
This won't do. I should go into the office.
Eun Sung!
Director Kang.
Did you see the article?
There's fake news about us.
- That's Director Kang Sun Woo! - Director Kang Sun Woo's here!
- Get the camera! - Come on.
- Hurry. - Hurry!
Over there!
Hurry up.
Is the woman next to him his girlfriend?
The one who got the part?
You're right. It's her.
Director Kang, what do you think about the audition controversy?
Was there really an issue with the process or method?
(Unpredictable Family)
Mr. Shin. Give me an answer...
regarding my confession to you.
I can't allow Min Guk to be with that lunatic.
I could become Ye Won.
What about Eun Sung?
This was targeting the two of us.
I have a hunch that the person who gave the tip was Yang Ju Ri.
How dare you run your mouth without any evidence?
If you officially acknowledge that you're a couple,
there's a chance the suspicions will grow bigger.
Release a statement saying...
you're not in a relationship with Eun Sung.
