(quickly add the assorted nuts.)

Hello, sir.

This is for you.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

(Dajeong Maeul Bus Stop)

The 124 bus will arrive soon.

I like this sound.

I really like the snap of chocolate...

that's as clear...

as the taste of the snack is sweet.

It's the routine that starts my day,

and it also determines
how that day will go.

Joo Seul Gi. Have a good day. Chin up.

(Roywell Food)

Hello, sir.

You're the first to come in again.

I thought it was a rookie thing,
but she's keeping it up.

I know. She makes us look bad
when we came on time.

- Have a good day.
- You too.

Hello, sir.

All human relationships
follow the 7-to-2-to-1 rule.

Seven people don't care about me.

Two dislike me for no reason,

and only one likes me.

I identified the two
who dislike me for no reason.

The rest...

I can't stand Joo Seul Gi.

- Can't she just be invisible?
- Three.

Why does she create more work?

Being too hard-working can be problematic.

- Four.
- Our boss liked her at first.

He seems drained now.

What shall we have for lunch?

(Roywell Food)

To commemorate the 20th anniversary,

around 400 people
gathered from all over the world...

to make unique chocolates...

Over 50 percent
of manufactured chocolate...

- That looks so good.
- are imported from the US and Europe.

- We'll see if it's announced.
- Okay.

According to analysts,
flying objects that are called UFOs...

have a few characteristics.

- First...
- The first is speed.

Dad, I'm home.

They fly at a nonsensical speed.

To call them "fast..."

- is an understatement.
- Dad.

So how fast are they?

Sleep in your bed.

- You're home?
- Yes.

Sleep well.

- Sleep well, Dad.
- Okay.

- Good night.
- Okay.

Enjoy.

(A positive mind will change your life.)

Only one person likes me.

(Enjoy!)

The 11 Day event.

You all did great.

Good job.

- Thank you.
- Well done.

You heard the news, right?

The contest to select the menu
for the Valentine's Day pop-up store.

Valentine's Day?

That sounds like fun.

Ms. Joo.

I heard you did a good job...

with the gochujang pop-up store
at your previous job,

Chocolate's very different from gochujang.

Still, it's just one day of the year...

and the festival for chocolate.

I see you like festivals, Ms. Joo.

We just barely recovered from...

the 11 Day event we held on November 11.

Yes. That's over now so...

Exactly. That's done.

It's done, so we must plan
for next year's 11 Day.

We have almost a whole year left.

We have almost a whole year left,

but preparing for 11 Day
takes a lot of work,

and you can't do two things at once.

To companies like ours,

if Valentine's Day is New Year's Day,

then 11 Day is like Lunar New Year.

You just joined, so you don't know yet,

but we worked on
the 11 Day event for the whole year.

- We did, didn't we?
- We did.

Ms. Oh broke up with her boyfriend...

while working on that project.

Yes.

- You two broke up.
- Yes.

I heard Valentine's Day is just as hard.

- It's hard.
- As hard as it is,

it must also be very rewarding.

Since we're hosting a contest,

why don't we
put everything into it and forge ahead?

What do you think?

- Ms. Joo?
- Yes?

Why don't you replace me?

You can sit here instead.

She's your new manager.

Give her some applause.

No, thanks.

My gosh.

Wasn't that insane?

Did you see our manager's face?

Joo Seul Gi drained all his energy.

Why does she only think of
what she wants to do?

She'll cause big trouble one day,
won't she?

I don't care if she does.

Let's stay well out of her way.

Sure.

What shall we have for lunch?

What did I do wrong?

Those two...

are evil witches.

What?

(12:40 p.m., Tuesday, December 10)

It stopped again.

Those two...

are evil witches.

Hey.

She wraps chocolate with a handkerchief?

How odd.

(Valentine's Day Pop-up Store)

(Company-wide Contest
for New Chocolate Menu)

It sounds like so much fun.

I heard you did a good job...

with the gochujang pop-up store
at your previous job,

Chocolate's very different from gochujang.

Preparing for 11 Day takes a lot of work,

and you can't do two things at once.

If Valentine's Day is New Year's Day,

then 11 Day is like Lunar New Year.

It has to be somewhere here.

(Honggeumdang)

Yes. I found it.

Here.

I can't fix it.

The watch is a bit old.

I can't fix watches.

What?

But...

What?

It's a watch store
and he can't fix watches?

What?

Oh, that's why...

I like chocolate too.

Then you must know
it goes well with whiskey.

I do.

Did you make this chocolate?

Yes.

It's delicious.

Thank you.

Sir.

You know something about me?

I moved companies
so I could do what I loved.

But everyone tells me not to do it.

Everyone wants me...

to just keep still and quiet.

I moved jobs to work hard,

so why must I keep still and quiet?

Sir.

Working hard and being active.

Is that a crime?

I think that everyone...

is the same.

Are you listening?

My stomach aches.

How much did I drink?

My head aches too.

A double snap?

Darn it.

This is bad.

Hello.

- Ms. Joo?
- Yes?

- Can I have a word?
- What?

Were you that stressed out about it?

Pardon?

If you want to do it that badly,
you must do it.

- Do what?
- The pop-up store contest.

Put together a team and give it a go.

You said no yesterday.

I did.

I clearly said no, but despite that...

Why can't I do
the Valentine's Day contest?

Am I a darn pushover
because I'm always smiling?

I might just quit and run.

That's crazy.

Why won't you let me do...

All you rude freaks...

I'm suffocating here.

Am I a pushover because I smile?

You rude... I wish I could just quit!

They say people speak their minds
when they're drunk.

Your messages were full of typos,

but they were oddly clear.

What on earth is this? Oh, no...

I'm so sorry, sir.

It's fine.

You must do it
if you want to do that badly.

What am I to stop you?

Put a team together.

But it's such an important...

company-wide project.

I don't think I can handle
something this big...

on my own.

No. This is what you want and decided,

so you must shoulder
the responsibility and consequences.

Darn it.

I'm really...

I'm very sorry, sir.

I wanted to work with you
and the rest of our team...

and have fun,

and I think it came out all wrong.

- Gosh.
- No.

It came out just right.

You want to have fun,

so go and have fun on your own.

My gosh.

I didn't mean any of this.

I had a lot to drink last night.

I apologize.

- Good luck.
- Do your best.

I will.

I apologize for what I said.

Joo Seul Gi.

You didn't borrow
someone else's hands to text.

You wanted to do it. Give it a try.

Let's do it.

The employee called Jeong Ji Young is...

Where is she?

There she is.

Hello.

- Hello.
- Hello.

I'm Assistant Manager Joo Seul Gi
with the Planning Team.

Wait up.

Hello.

We met in the ladies' room.

What do you want?

My name is Joo Seul Gi.

What's yours?

I'm with the Research Team.
Assistant Manager Kim Hyun Nam.

Ms. Kim. Did you see
the Valentine's Day contest poster?

Would you like to join me?

What for?

I have a feeling we'll get along great.

I'm leaving soon.

- What?
- I'm resigning.

I see.

Hey. You haven't left yet.

- Did you hand in your resignation?
- No.

What a relief.

If you're going to quit anyway,

why not cause trouble with me?

And have fun?

Ta-da.

Darn it.

Oh, dear. What a waste.

You're crazy.

It's not crazy
to keep chocolate in a handkerchief?

We're both crazy about chocolate.

Let's do something fun.

- "Fun?"
- Yes.

At what temperature
should dark chocolate...

be tempered, cooled, then re-tempered?

Why would you ask about tempering?

At what temperature?

First tempering, between 50 and 55°C.

- Cooling temperature.
- That's 27°C.

Second tempering, between 31 and 32°C.

What about for milk chocolate
and then white chocolate?

Lower than that for dark chocolate.

You don't make chocolate
so you can have fun.

You make it to please the consumer.

How can you make chocolate
when you don't even know...

those temps when it decides the texture?

I heard you did awesome
with the gochujang event.

Stick to what you're good at.

(Watches)

Why is it closed?

Is he not in?

(Honggeumdang)

Oh, Mr. Hong.

Gosh, chocolate.

And mulled wine.

Non-alcoholic for the nasty regular.

That's what happens
when I drink on an upset day.

Today's more upsetting.

I better drink this mulled wine
before I cause bigger trouble.

There was someone I wanted to do
the Valentine's project with.

I thought I met...

the first like-minded person
in this company.

She felt like an honest person...

who said everything on her mind
without talking behind my back.

I heard you did awesome
with the gochujang event.

Stick to what you're good at.

But she was the worst jerk.

What?

- It's been a while.
- Yes.

Do you know each other?

You two with no friends
should become friends.

Okay.

The 1st tempering of milk chocolate
is between 40°C and 45°C.

Cooling is 26°C.

The 2nd is 30°C.

White chocolate is 40°C and 45°C.

Cooling is 25°C. The 2nd is 29°C.

What's the use of a good memory?

I love chocolate...

to the point of transferring companies.

You cherish chocolate...

by wrapping it neatly...

in a handkerchief.

But to quit?

I will get the world's feedback...

on the chocolate I make.

I don't want to make...

the perfect chocolate that satisfies
the company's standards...

and gets approved by you and the manager.

Even if...

it's a bit rough and insufficient,

my dream is to make the chocolate...

in my imagination...

with my two hands that have the texture...

and novel ingredients...

I find.

That's nice.

Even if you fail, no money will be wasted.

A startup beta test
you don't have a manager...

to get confirmation from.

All you have to do is make chocolate
to get the world's feedback.

And that's who I need.

You're so persistent.

Let's hear
what the world has to say in advance.

Let's say you fail.
The worst scenario is getting fired.

Whether you quit or get fired,

you just need to make your own chocolate.
No?

Seriously.

You have a clear vision
of what you want to do.

But to go on about tempering.

Simply put,

we can work together.

And...

You've still got some.

Working together should do, no?

You're in, right?

(Loywell Food)

Hey.

That guy has no love for chocolate.

Is he your ex-boyfriend?

He's in the Design Team.

That's great.

No way.

The Design Team.

(Jeremy)

(OOTD by Jeremy,
a Chocolate Company Worker)

(After I uploaded
my daily look last time...)

(I'll wear striped pants.)

He doesn't even like chocolate.

"Sweet Jeremy" makes no sense.

Jeon Soon Tae.

(A man should wear a long black coat
during winter.)

You and I...

can make the chocolate.

But the packaging design
is important for Valentine's.

We can't hire an outsource.

But he seems to care more about
his bicycle moves...

on camera than his main job.

I doubt he can design good packaging.

I really admire your sincerity, Ms. Kim.

(Conveying Your Love)

- Excuse me.
- Yes?

Where can I find Mr. Jeon Soon Tae?

He's over there.

(Dedicated Work Zone)

"Dedicated work zone?"

I'm live streaming to introduce
the dedicated work zone...

to you all.

Before me is a wall of windows.
And to help focus,

- it's in an L shape...
- I'm a fan.

Spare me some time, please.

Follow requests can be made after lunch.

As I'm a huge celebrity,

I must provide direction...

to those without ideation.

And development-wise...

I get that you're a fan, but...

(Joo Seul Gi)

"Joo Seul Gi?"

Are you Assistant Manager Joo Seul Gi?

I'd like to make a scout offer, Jeremy.

Gosh.

You're very brave, miss.

Sorry. What?

Well, I heard you went...

out of control in the team group chat.

Oh, that?

Yes. And so,

I'm in charge
of a Valentine's Day pop-up store.

And you're scouting me into that team?

Yes.

We are in desperate need...

of someone with a celebrity's taste
like you, Jeremy.

Wait.

Are you in desperate need of me?

Come on in.

She's Assistant Manager Kim Hyun Nam
from the Research Team.

Hi.

- You know me, right?
- No.

I'm Jeremy from the Design Team.

Please take good care of us,

Mr. Jeon Soon Tae.

No, it's Jeremy.

Jeremy.

Shall we clear up...

those files first...

before unpacking our things?

Sure.

How do we decide our seats?

As I'm constantly running low on sugar,

I will try my company's chocolate.

Ta-da.

It's not from the lab.

I bought it with my own money.

Would you like some?

All right.

(Live)

Open up.

I'm getting bursts of dopamine.

It's so good.

A dopamine rush.

Gosh.

I'm so not but still looking forward to...

our first team dinner.

It's a meeting, not a team dinner.

We'll get inspired...

with some good food.

What shall we have?

Come on.

(Honggeumdang)

We're here.

What?

"Hong-something-dang?"

Come in.

Do we...

need to get inspired by watches today?

Gosh, this team is a tough one.

Take a seat.

Nice.

What's with this chocolate? It's so fetch.

- We ate. Now let's work.
- Okay.

All right.

Have you thought about the chocolate...

you want to make for Valentine's Day?

That's such a philosophical question
for me.

What does chocolate mean to you, Soon Tae?

What I eat when I need sugar.

I see.

That's not wrong. What about you, Ms. Kim?

A switch.

When I melt a small piece
of chocolate in my mouth,

it's like a small light
turns on in the dark.

The more it melts,
the brighter the light becomes.

What about you, Seul Gi?

"Seul Gi?"

What we say will all be infused
into the chocolate.

So do you still want to be so formal?

Let's soften up
and get along with each other.

The chocolate can hear everything.

You're right.

Chocolate contains everything
about the maker.

To me, chocolate is...

- Let's go home.
- a highly contagious happiness.

I can easily share...

this sweet piece that comforts
and makes me happy...

with others...

anywhere, anytime.

Here's a new chocolate.

- Yes.
- Gosh.

And mulled wine.

Thank you.

Thank you for the drink.

The day is coming to an end.

This moment right now.

Like the best scene of my life,
it'll remain in my memories...

and cheer me up
when I'm in the rough, right?

Telling me...

there was a surprising and happy day.

Aren't you hungry?

Should we get lunch?

- Yes.
- Let's go.

- How about conducting market research?
- I'm in.

We're here. My gosh.

- Nice.
- I'm excited.

Go in.

Thank you.

- Welcome.
- Hi.

My gosh.

They smell amazing.

The sweetness is killing my head.

By the way, the Research Team
has about this much every day...

as a taste test, right?

This is usual for me.

Right. I see.

Gosh, you two are going strong.

What's strange is that...

the more I ate Honggeumdang's chocolate,
the more I craved it.

Why does Kyung Sik make...

those great chocolates out of sight?

He doesn't feel the need
to make it famous.

How come?

I thought Valentine's Day would be sweet
through and through.

But coming up with a concept is hard.

Valentine's Day...

is a war for chocolate lovers.

I hate how fake chocolates...

take up the market to make use of couples.

It's a war for couples.

"I don't care about Valentine's."

That is the start of a war.

I never fight on that day.

It's brought up until we break up.

This time,
we'll isolate chocolate from couples.

But it's been the day for couples
for over a century.

They've had it for a century.

Rather than...

just a day event for couples,

I want to create chocolate's proper vibe.

"Chocolate's proper vibe?"

I think...

chocolates have feelings.

When I first visited
Honggeumdang by chance,

Mr. Hong gave me a piece of chocolate
without saying anything.

"What? Chocolate at a watch shop?"

"How unusual." With that, I ate the piece.

But it felt like the chocolate was saying,

"You're doing well, Joo Seul Gi."

It was patting me on the back
and cheering me on.

Speaking of which,

how about this concept
for the upcoming Valentine's Day?

Treating myself with happiness.

Yes. I like it.

It's a concept that can embrace
chocolate lovers and couples.

Okay.

Let's make it great together.

Tomorrow will be the start of everything.

I was not a morning person
when I was young.

But my mother never woke me up
with a loud voice.

She woke me up by giving me
a tight hug while I was in bed...

or by stroking my back gently...

while lying next to me...

after setting up breakfast.

On days she made curry,

I could smell curry from my mother...

as she hugged me.

(Honggeumdang)

And while in her arms,

I would guess the breakfast menu.

Watching the rain...

after a late dinner...

makes it feel like I'm time-traveling.

At heart, I am still that boy.

I miss my mother especially today.

I should steam some kimchi dumplings
this weekend and visit her.

My mother likes dumplings.

(Clock Repair)

Kyung Sik!

- Honey.
- Yes.

- Let's hurry.
- Okay.

Let's lock up.

- Stop him.
- Block it. Hurry.

- Block it.
- Pass it to me.

- Pass it.
- Hey, pass it.

- Oh, no.
- Yes!

Kyung Sik!

- My gosh.
- Hong Kyung Sik!

- Hong Kyung Sik.
- Kyung Sik.

Your grandmother is sick.

Your father and I must go now. Okay?

- Hey.
- We'll be back soon.

Make sure to eat. All right?

Okay. I got it.

All right. We'll be back soon.

Okay. Let's go.

Make sure to eat!

- Get the ball.
- Get it.

- My gosh.
- No.

Hurry up.

Bye.

- Guys, I'm leaving.
- Bye.

- See you later.
- Bye.

The particle size for this is the best.

Does that mean the flavor is better?

It's ground more finely.
So one could feel it that way.

This one is a bit coarse.

That one is finer.

(Refrigerated, Sub-ingredient 1)

Ta-da.

- Gosh.
- My goodness.

At last. It's our first sample.

Good job.

I'm nervous.

Should we try again?

A scent of vanilla?

What percent?

It's tough, isn't it?

It's harder than I thought.

It is hard.

Should I have prepared myself
more for this?

I'm not even that experienced.

All right, ladies. Let's keep going.

My gosh.

I wish I could have a piece of chocolate
from Honggeumdang...

to keep us going.

Wait.

Why don't we collaborate
with Honggeumdang?

It's common to collaborate
with other people for pop-up events.

What do you think?

If you're on board with the idea,
I can ask him.

We still have some time left.

So I'm down with trying
to figure this out by ourselves too.

Sure. I'm good with that.

But he'll probably say no.

No.

Sir.

I want...

more people to feel the cheer...

I felt from having your chocolate.
That's all I want.

And if you join our project,

that's going to make us
feel more confident...

because your chocolate carries strength.

Strength?

Doesn't that sound too grand?

You were right, Hyun Nam.

Mr. Hong...

makes only as much chocolate
as the space in his shop allows.

Then he only serves it to the people
who can find his shop.

That's always been everything he wanted.

The moment I post that on my social media,

his place will go viral.

He'll close down the shop the next day.

Will he go that far?

He didn't even change a single thing
in his parents' clock shop.

All his life,

he dedicated to making
one type of chocolate.

A change?

Of course, he'll hate it.

Is it that difficult to accept changes?

Tranquility, meditation, alone time,

concentration, safe space, and peace.

We basically barged into a temple...

and asked to turn a temple stay...

into a night of clubbing.

We only thought of it
from our point of view.

My gosh. It's cold.

It's freezing.

(Clock)

Mr. Hong.

I couldn't sleep.

Gosh, the mulled wine.

Sir,

why did you make chocolate?

There are things other than chocolate.

Someone...

once told me that
chocolate brought happiness.

Is that what your parents said?

No.

Then does that person know that...

you made a life decision
based on what that person said?

If that's truly why
you started to make chocolate,

I'm sure a lot of people
would have felt happy...

after tasting your chocolate.

That would bring you happiness too, right?

I really hope it does.

(Clock)

Oh, it's closing time.
But you had to stay because of me.

The mulled wine
definitely helped me relax.

("The Sorrows of Young Werther")

Can I borrow this book?

I'll read it quickly and return it to you.

Bye.

"Losing ourselves..."

"is equivalent to losing everything."

(I hope you enjoy them, Dad.)

I hope you enjoy them, Dad.

(Dajeong Maeul Bus Stop)

Sir.

Is my chocolate...

not to your liking?

Your chocolate...

resembles these clocks.

Mom.

Dad.

(Clock)

Mom.

Dad.

Hello, Mr. Hong.

I wanted to return your book.

If you like, you're welcome to try this.

I made chocolate for my dad yesterday.

Well, I had plenty of ingredients.

I thought about you
for a tenth of a second.

So I made it.

You thought about me?

Yes. Wait, no.
Not like romantically or anything.

I just...

wanted to give this to you.
So I made extras for you.

Why?

You've always given your chocolate
to other people...

and made chocolate
to be given out as presents.

I doubt that you ever got one
as a present.

I never thought that
I wanted to get one as a present.

Yes.

Right.

But still.

How do you make chocolate...

that brings happiness to other people
with that attitude?

You don't know how to receive it yourself.

You won't even eat it...

or taste it to see
what kind of effort went into it.

I'm not fishing for compliments
about the chocolate.

Oh, right. It's not a bribe...

to get you to collaborate with us.

You don't have to work with us.

Mr. Hong, hear me out.

People who want
to be comforted or be happy...

People who bring happiness to others,

but don't know how to gift
the same happiness to themselves.

I'm going to make chocolate
for people like them.

I couldn't sleep,
so I used that as an excuse...

and did my best to make the chocolate.

Just like how your chocolate
comforted me that day,

I wanted to give this to you
as a present too.

So we don't lose ourselves.

(Special thanks to Son Hyun Joo
for his appearance)

(Special thanks to Kim Chang Wan...)

(Our Chocolate Moments)

But...

who are you?

Are you happy now?

Did you check the announcement?

- A week later?
- A week later?

I guess you recruited me,
thinking I was super skilled.

But I must not be as good as you thought.

I've been making chocolate
all these years...

to remember the flavor of that chocolate.

I never critiqued your chocolate.

This timeline is impossible.

Other people
couldn't have made it this far.

Is it possible that the flavor
from your memory is holding you back...

and you're missing out
on something more important?

Why did you change your mind?

The happiness you gift yourself...

made my time that had halted...

for a long time move once again.

Thanks to you.
