[Episode 8]

Then...

well...

I'll let you go.

Okay. I'll go.

Okay.

- Why... - I think...

I want to ask you something.

Really? What is it?

It's a bit awkward to talk here.

Should we walk?

I'm more than happy.

Ask me anything.

I'll answer any questions.

What did you want to ask me...

What should I do with your stuff?

I put it in my attic for now.

Shouldn't you get a space somewhere?

I'm not sure.

If I got one under my name,

the Chairwoman might find out.

Oh, I see.

If you don't mind, can I leave them there?

I'd be relieved if they're at your place.

It'd be a good excuse to see you, too.

You say stuff like that so shamelessly.

I'll go inside, then.

I...

I have something to ask you, too.

Really?

Yes.

What did you want to ask me?

I guess you're very close to that lady.

Jjin unni?

We've been close since we were young.

We met while playing a video game.

The game where you met your first love?

Yes.

What's the name of that game-

I suppose you're close to Chief Kim.

Yes, he's my mom's friend's-

Gosh, are you okay?

It was a motorcycle.

Yes.

Anyway, we were childhood friends, too.

Oh, I see.

Hold on.

Did you make him ask around about me, then?

I had no choice then.

You knew too much about my secret-

Are they gone?

Yes, the cat is gone.

Was it a cat?

Maybe I overreacted.

A little?

Do we need to do this with not many people around?

We can run into my dad.

It won't hurt to be careful.

Getting caught by someone from work would be worse.

There are so many people at work, you know.

The HQ has 8,000 employees and 100,000, including the subsidiary companies.

You never know when and where you'd run into one. Don't you agree?

You convinced me.

Hold on.

- Let's go. - No one's around?

Yes.

I really need to go now.

Get home safely. Call me when you arrive.

Okay. Good night.

Yes!

Peace?

Does it mean rock 'n' roll or something?

I love you.

He's crazy.

That's what it means in sign language.

Seriously. He knows how to make me laugh.

She knows how to drive me crazy.

[Sulo]

Excuse me.

Yes, sir. Do you need something?

Alcohol? Water? Snacks?

Instead of those,

can I have your number?

Pardon?

I'd like to see you somewhere else sometime.

[AZ Investment Securities CEO Lee Hyeong Geun]

I'm afraid that won't work.

Why not?

Because I'm a customer?

No. I don't care you're a customer.

I'm just not attracted to you.

- Y-You're not attracted to me? - No.

Let me know if you need anything besides my number.

[Kim Sin Won]

[Sulo]

[Unfollow]

[Unfollow Confirm]

I probably won't see her again, right?

Kim Sin Won.

- Long time no see. - Yes.

Did we last meet at the latest reunion?

Are you here alone? Where's your girlfriend?

My girlfriend?

We broke up a while ago.

How many hours has it been?

Has it been at least 24 hours?

Stop joking.

I'll drop this off.

Did you hear about Ha Jin?

Her husband cheated, and they got divorced.

Crazy! Are you serious?

I didn't think he'd do that.

They were a campus couple since they were freshmen.

I know. You never know with people.

I feel so bad for her.

I'm okay.

- Ha Jin. - You came early.

Hey, I heard about your husband.

Are you really okay?

Yes, I'm okay.

I was angry at first,

but I have no feelings since we divorced.

- Ha Jin. - What do you mean, you're okay?

You don't have to pretend in front of us.

She's right.

No, I mean it.

Divorce isn't a trivial matter.

Cheaters should be rooted out completely.

Hey, calm her down.

Hey...

Let's go. Let's go.

Huh?

We meet here now?

Do you want to have a candy with me?

Running into you here is a bit...

Does it feel like we're meant to be?

Yes.

I was frustrated with

my friends telling me to get married.

That's why I came up here. But you were here.

So, I guess...

I came here out of frustration, too.

Why?

Did your friends tell you to get married, too?

Who'd say that to a recent divorcee?

Oh, yeah. That's right.

I dated my ex...

since I was a freshman for over 10 years

and we got married.

You were together for a long time.

Since we knew each other for a long time,

I thought I knew him well.

But I guess marriage was another story.

He cheated in less than six months.

After I moved to another province for him.

What a piece of trash.

I know.

That piece of trash.

I was really fine once I got rid of him.

But everyone keeps saying I can't be okay.

Should I pretend I'm not okay?

Don't bother if you're really okay.

I know.

I wish they believed me like you do.

I was frustrated with stuff like that, too.

I was sincere about everything,

but they all say I wasn't.

You know how you felt better than anyone.

I know.

I know how I feel better than anyone.

I really...

have always been sincere.

Do you want to sleep with me?

You told me last time

that you could sleep with me one more time,

but you don't want to go out with me.

Do you still feel that way?

If I said yes, would you reject me?

Yes, I will.

You rejected me, but you kissed me back.

You should've pushed me away.

There's no way I can push you away.

Do you like me that much?

This is no good.

You'll have to date me seriously.

Follow me back, too.

Don't you want to?

I want to.

Because I like you.

You said you had a meeting. What are you doing here?

I have time to see you briefly.

- There was no traffic? - No. I got here fine.

Su Jeong.

When did you leave the house...

Director?

Dad.

What brings you here today, Director?

Well, the thing is...

How are you, Father?

I'm fine.

You saw me yesterday, so you know.

The packages...

The packages in my room belong to him.

It's the company's confidential documents.

I see.

It's because

Ms. Baek is an employee I trust the most.

That's why I'm storing them in your house.

Thank you for letting me.

We're just storing them.

By the way, why...

The document I need to check today

happened to be here. That's why I'm here.

It's the weekend, though.

I see.

You're a workaholic, too.

You sure are the leader of Yongsung.

Actually, Su Jeong is a serious workaholic, too.

She works late and on the weekends, too.

It's unbelievable.

But you must like her because

she works so hard.

Yes, I...

like her.

Instead of standing here,

why don't you come inside?

- What are you doing, Su Jeong? - Huh?

- W-Why... - Help him inside.

I'll take this out first.

It'd be okay, right?

Come on in.

This is your room?

Yes.

Toggaengyi.

You've been keeping him safe.

Of course.

Don't you want the document?

You said you were looking for an important document.

Oh, the document.

I forgot. I need to find it now.

The key is... the key...

It was around here.

It was here somewhere.

Where...

I found it! The key.

Key point.

Come when you're done. I'll cut some fruit.

Okay.

Did you find the document?

Yes, I'm looking.

You've been trapped in here.

Keep this place safe for me.

You're the smartest one of them all.

Everything was stored well.

I'm curious about something.

What's this?

I-I'm not sure. What could that be...

Dad must be waiting. Come out and eat some fruit.

I'm home.

- Hey. - Hey, hey!

G-Get out of here.

Please leave.

The bathroom doorknob is loose.

It sometimes opens even when it's locked.

It had to happen while you were in there.

I should fix it immediately.

I'll fix it later.

You must've been startled.

I was, but...

it's okay.

I didn't lose my dignity as a human.

Okay.

Have some.

Why did you come to our house?

He has an important document here.

He came to get it.

An important document?

Why didn't you take it and leave?

Why did you mark your territory?

- Mark my territory? - You little-

Su Bin,

why are you being rude to the guest?

Why didn't you loaf around-

in your apartment. Why are you here?

I'm visiting my house.

Stop petting me. My hair is falling out.

Director,

eat some. Here.

It's getting cold.

I'm sorry, but I have a meeting.

I'll get going now.

Still, just eat one.

Okay.

I'll get going now.

Thank you for inviting me in.

Oh, okay.

What are you doing? Stop.

Are you two dating already?

Why would you invite him here so soon?

That's out of the line.

What are you saying? Didn't you hear Dad?

- He was here for a document- - I know.

The fact that he has it here means you're serious.

You fooled Dad, too.

You agreed to date secretly or something?

- Hey, you- - Noona,

what if you get caught doing this?

Dad and I are fine,

but what if your coworkers find out?

The Director's family will find out eventually.

He might be sincere,

but his family wouldn't like you.

What if they splash water on you

and throw an envelope at you?

Would you cry and say, "Let us be in love."

Like that?

Have you been watching dramas instead of studying?

We're not dating, I said.

That won't happen.

And even so,

it won't matter.

- You're crazy. - Stop being silly and get out.

Okay.

I'm sure you'll figure it out.

But Noona,

I really...

don't want you to get hurt.

I'm worrying about you right now.

I'm such a great little brother.

Gosh, who'd marry him?

Isn't he the successor or something of your company?

You showed me the photo last time.

Daebak. What's he doing here?

He must be here to get dessert.

The chaebols eat this dessert?

There are too many employees.

You said it'd be hard to get.

There are so many people in there.

I'm glad I ordered in advance.

Let's get going.

She's arriving in about five minutes.

Okay.

Chief Kwon,

you started at Yongsung

20 years and three months ago.

As expected.

That's exactly right.

In the meantime,

my daughter is already in middle school.

Time really flies.

For that long period of time,

you've always been loyal to the Chairwoman.

Must've been possible because you truly respect her.

I'm happy that you acknowledge that.

But on that day,

why did you tell me the Chairwoman was visiting me?

You went against her word and helped me. Why?

I didn't know...

I was helping you, Director.

I didn't want

her next appointment to be delayed just in case.

That's why I called you.

But in the end,

something happened, and it was delayed.

Director.

Yes.

I want someone who would continue her vision

to become Yongsung's successor.

And I've never met anyone

who resembles her as much as you do.

Not yet, at least.

So...

I hope you don't disappoint the Chairman anymore.

Don't worry.

That won't happen.

She's the CEO of Arteta Asia.

I'm Ban Ju Yeon.

I've wanted to meet you sooner, but here we are.

This is...

for your daughter.

I can't say no to that.

My daughter wanted to try this while in Korea.

Here.

Thank you.

I'm a bit forgetful.

I can help you from now on, right?

That sounds good.

I didn't get to ask you yesterday.

You said you don't want a serious relationship.

Why did you change your mind?

Just because.

I realized there was no reason not to see you.

You like me, and I like you, too.

I just don't want anything complicated.

Tied to a relationship, you hope, get disappointed,

deceive, and get hurt.

Isn't that awful?

If you're happy, that's good.

If you're not, forget it. That's what I want.

I thought that'd be possible with you.

You're right.

You date someone to be happy.

It's here.

Yes, I'm about to leave.

How about you, Su Jeong?

I'm also on my way to work.

I'll get to see you at work soon.

You know we have to be more careful at work, right?

Did you forget?

I've practiced hiding my private life my whole life.

I keep them guessing.

We won't get caught. Don't worry.

But I caught you.

That means we were meant to be.

You said we were ill-fated.

Anyway, you can't let it show.

I won't let it show.

Never.

I won't, either.

Never.

Hello, Team Leader.

Hello.

Hello.

Team Leader.

How are things with your blind date?

Did you have a blind date?

- Excuse me? - You seemed to like him.

Really?

Deputy Yang, you must be mistaken.

I rejected him. Totally.

I cut him off completely.

I suppose.

I guess not just any man would catch your eye.

I think an older man would suit you.

W-Why...

Because you're so sure of yourself,

someone older

who's generous and gentle would suit you.

Yes, yes.

And not someone who's too qualified, either.

Why is that?

Think about it.

He needs to support your career.

If he obsesses over his reputation and success,

it'd be too tiring for you both.

Wouldn't it be nice if we were both good at our jobs?

I didn't want to say this because it's too obvious.

You know the guy in the cartoon you mentioned?

A guy like him who kisses you and says he forgot?

You can't date anyone like him.

That kind of a man is the worst.

Totally the worst.

What kind of main guy is that?

Don't read cartoons like that. It's bad for you.

I know. I know.

To be honest,

I just don't want you to date someone at work.

I don't want you to quit because of that.

Deputy, how could she date anyone at work?

She told me that office romance is like hell.

Hell at work. Right, Team Leader?

- Did I say that? - Yes, hell at work.

That's good to hear, then.

There's no way she'd do that.

Hell?

Why did I say that?

Na Na, where's Deputy Yang?

He's been gone for a while.

Oh, he's at the Director's office.

Well, Director?

Director- Director!

Team Leader Baek,

who prints and copies like this these days?

It must be tiring.

It's for me.

It's for you, too.

I'll pick it up when you're done.

Okay.

Team Leader,

- this... - Director!

How could you have no practical skills?

How do you not know how to make copies?

Look. Feed the paper like this,

press the button,

and the paper comes out.

The letters are black, and the paper is white.

Go ahead and approve it.

Go.

Okay.

How will he survive in this world?

Team Leader, are you the Director Killer again?

He's still the successor.

He still needs to know how to make copies.

He doesn't know how to do that?

No wonder. He didn't know how to shred, either.

I had a hard time since he held onto me all morning.

Did he do that to you, too?

- Yes. - Geez.

What a strange guy.

I was spooked earlier.

You know I wasn't actually yelling at you, right?

I know how to make copies.

I did it a lot when I was an intern and secretary.

I know. I know.

There's nothing you can't do, Director.

So, you get it.

My stomach...

Yell at me right now.

Say you were upset earlier.

Yell at me and scold me.

How would you explain why we're here, then?

But still, how could I yell at you?

You used to be good at it.

Are they fighting again?

They seem close, too.

Seriously.

Director!

A boss shouldn't be offended by stuff like that.

You become a good boss by taking criticism.

Understand? I asked if you understand.

Here we go again.

I'm witnessing the legend right now, right?

Let's go downstairs before we get mixed up.

Yes. I think we'd better.

The office is dangerous. Let's hurry back.

You're...

too good at improvising.

Way too good.

I had no choice.

I was just pretending.

Are your feelings hurt?

Why are you so good at getting angry?

Do you get angry when you see me?

Why? Because I'm not older than you,

and I'm not the caring type?

Why worry about a comment like that?

No.

Didn't you prefer an older man, too?

At the farm, you mentioned the age difference.

You said I can't be your boyfriend,

and you don't think of me as a man.

That's what you said.

That was...

To be honest, my first love was younger than me.

That's why I didn't want a younger man.

Because of the bad memory.

So annoying.

How can I make you feel better?

You can do me a favor.

Should I get you chocolate milk?

Or should I go to an arcade with you?

What am I, a child?

Then...

You can't ask me to kiss you or anything.

You're into that, huh?

- What did you say? - Why would I ask that?

It's not like that. Don't worry.

I'll tell you when I think of something.

Okay, then.

I don't need to ask to do this, right?

[Yongsung Department Store]

So, this is the favor he's asking for?

These are characters from my favorite comic books.

Their names are easier to memorize than dog names.

[Regis K. Landegre]

He's so jealous.

I memorized all of them.

She memorizes quickly.

Let's go.

What's all this?

Is today a special day?

How could I eat all this...

Su Jeong, I have a boyfriend.

All of a sudden?

When, where, and how did you meet him?

He was my customer,

and we happened to connect physically and mentally

very strongly, I guess?

You said you weren't interested in dating.

But it's someone you know well.

Me? Who is it?

Kim Sin Won.

What?

From our design department?

Yes.

No way.

How could you and he...

You're actually dating him?

No, he's a player.

Are you talking about me, by chance?

Chief Kim, w-why are you over there?

Because I'm her boyfriend.

You can put it all the way in there.

Okay, got it.

I think he's a servant, not a boyfriend.

You were mistaken.

He'd be a player if he cheated.

He tends to start and end relationships cleanly.

I fell for that side of you.

You see through me with no mistakes.

Like this.

I see.

A close friend of yours told me that.

So, I thought it was true.

Anyway, you can't cheat. Never.

Of course, I won't.

By the way, who's the close friend of mine?

Well, I thought you were close to Director Ban.

How did you know we were close?

Most people seem to know already.

Really. I tried to hide it, but I guess it shows.

So, how are things with you and the Director?

Well, there's nothing much to tell.

We just get along.

You don't have a special relationship?

Gosh, don't worry, Ha Jin.

Ju Yeon would never date his coworker.

He'd be in trouble if the Chairwoman found out.

- Really? - Yes.

And Ju Yeon is a bit cold to people.

If he dated someone,

I think a cute and loving woman would be good.

Someone sweet enough to tolerate his personality.

That's exactly the opposite of Su Jeong.

Right? The exact opposite of Team Leader Baek.

I know.

[My Other Half]

Yes, Director.

Are you off work?

Okay, then.

Let's go on a date after work tomorrow.

Movie, famous restaurant, or a cafe.

I heard most people want to do that.

Do you have a place you want to go to?

I'm like that, too.

Thinking now, I don't like crowded places.

I'd like somewhere quiet.

- Really? - Yes.

I'm surrounded by people at work.

Why go to another crowded place?

Oh, I know where I want to go.

Hey, hey. Did you see Yongsung's successor?

What?

He's young, too.

I'm so jealous.

I should be more careful.

[Yongsung Department Store]

We signed all the companies to join our food section.

We can start the remodeling in time.

Okay.

Team 2 couldn't sign on one company.

We're still negotiating the terms.

But we're finishing up.

Wrap it up as soon as possible.

Yes, we will.

Sales Team 1 must be happy.

Team Leader Baek took care of the hardest part.

You know we worked hard, too.

If Team Leader Baek didn't step in,

we would've taken care of it another way.

- Is that so? - Do you have time to chit-chat?

I don't.

Strategy Team,

how's the Botanic House show coming along?

We hired a performer.

Besides the performance, I thought about

how to use it for regular events, too.

I'll sum it up and report to you.

Okay, sounds good.

That's all for the meeting.

Okay, sounds good. I like you.

I wanted to say that, but I had to hold it in.

See you on our date later.

You're so good at your job, Team Leader Baek.

Are you happy to do everything alone?

I'm asking because I'm really curious.

Did you sleep with Director Ban?

What did you say?

You seem way too close.

He always says, "Sounds good. Good job."

I don't think he says that to anyone else.

I guess I'm the only one who works this hard.

No.

You've always worked hard.

But why is he the only one

who likes someone as harsh and dogged as you?

Didn't you seduce him because he's the successor?

You sure you didn't sleep with him?

I said we aren't like that.

Really?

Never mind, then.

Could you say stuff like this in front of people?

I need a witness to sue you for defamation.

I can only tolerate so many insults.

These are the coolest clothes I own.

What's with the outfit...

I had no choice.

It was too risky

to dress in my style in case I got caught.

But still.

You look like you're going to work, not a date.

That's why I prepared this.

Prepare what?

Get changed.

This is where you wanted to come?

It's quiet and remote.

I knew you were into being intimate.

You're the one who's actually into that.

You kept kissing me first.

I know.

We don't want to go somewhere crowded

and stick out. That's why we're here.

You must've wanted to go to a restaurant, cafe,

a movie theater, and so on, too.

No, I came here because I wanted to.

People go on dates by the Han River often.

And...

we can hold hands like this here.

Do you like this song?

Yes.

Do you want me to skip it?

No.

I used to like this song, too.

Why is it in the past tense?

Because I can't like it anymore.

Does this have to do with your first love, too?

Yes, I suppose.

You must've liked him a lot.

He takes up too much space in your life.

That's how awful it was.

You don't have to worry.

The past is nothing but the past.

The song is innocent.

Start liking it again with me.

Okay.

♫ I was already abandoned ♫

♫ It makes me feel disgusted ♫

♫ Hey ♫

♫ For quite a while ♫

♫ You've been inside my heart ♫

♫ Think of it as your home ♫

What's so funny?

Are you seeing someone?

The menu, please!

The menu is here.

I'm not even the Chairwoman. Why try to hide it?

Be honest with me.

I'll always support your relationship.

I fully support it.

Look at you.

You aren't denying it.

Are you really seeing someone?

- Yes. - With whom-

Who stole your heart?

Don't try to find out too much.

You'd get hurt.

Is she pretty?

How low.

I guess she isn't.

You really think so?

She's pretty.

She's pretty.

Everything about...

Strawberry is pretty.

Everything about her is pretty.

She really likes me,

and I like her, too.

Is it Team Leader Baek Su Jeong?

Don't make ridiculous assumptions.

I hear the radish kimchi is amazing here.

It is Team Leader Baek.

The food section is the highlight of this project,

but to boost the sales more,

we have to remodel the Luxury Wing, too.

Since the luxury brands have strong identities,

it's difficult to remodel the interior.

Especially Arteta.

If Arteta, the core of Luxury Wing, doesn't change-

There's no need to worry.

I already met them and took care of it.

- Pardon? - I met with them over the weekend.

I worked on this for a long time.

The client I didn't get to meet at the party

is the CEO of their Asia branch.

Since when did you think about this?

I've been thinking since the project started.

I needed Arteta to participate to do aggressive PR

and allow for a major image change, too.

You're...

impressed with me now, aren't you?

- I'm not. - I think you are.

I swear I'm not.

Let's just say you are.

Because I wanted to impress you.

♫ The moment I hold your hand ♫

♫ It's all right, it's so high ♫

♫ I can't hide my feelings ♫

♫ I'll work up my courage and tell you ♫

♫ My first love is calling me ♫

♫ I've been waiting ♫

♫ It feels like I'm flying ♫

♫ Even after a long time ♫

♫ Say you'll join me ♫

Move. We're at work.

You peeped at me...

when I was undressed at work, too.

Do you know how startled I was?

You have a dragon tattoo on your back.

You were like a thug...

I mean,

you were dressed weirdly and talked meanly.

Yet you were in the director's office.

I don't like fashion styles like that.

I don't want to be anywhere near it.

How about now?

I don't care.

Because I like you.

Since when did you like me?

- Pardon? - You must've hated me at first.

What side of me did you start liking?

Do you usually ask questions like this so directly?

I don't know what usually happens.

Since this is my first time.

But I want to know.

So I can work on it.

So that you'll continue to like me.

Hurry.

Come on. Tell me.

I noticed you were good at your job.

And you don't dislike me for being intense.

Can I record this?

Why would you record this?

And?

And...

your password is funny.

I started finding you a bit cute.

What did you say?

It was supposed to be cool, not cute.

Say that again. Did you call me cute just now?

Not cool?

Come on. You can be cute, too.

No.

I'll give you another chance.

You're cute.

You're cute.

That was a long report.

Yes.

He needs to go on a business trip later.

So, I had to report everything in advance.

I suppose. I heard we're setting up

a cafe and a stage in the Botanic House.

You must've needed time to talk over that.

Yes, that, too.

Well, then...

Ju Yeon and Su Jeong...

seem to be dating.

Ju Yeon said he started seeing someone.

No matter how much I think,

there's no one but Ms. Baek.

- If so- - But...

I think it'd be fine if they kept dating.

What if they find out who each other is?

I'm sure it'd be a huge shock.

Since they haven't found out,

they might never know.

And Ju Yeon...

finally looks truly happy.

I can't bring myself to

break them up.

I printed it.

Thank you.

[My Other Half]

Yes, Director. Are you done with the appointment?

Yes, I'm at the hotel now.

You must be tired.

I miss you.

We've been apart for a day.

We'll meet tomorrow evening.

But what if I want to see you right now?

Try to hold out.

I suppose you don't miss me that much.

You have things to do tomorrow.

I don't want you to push it because of me.

Of course, I miss you, too.

There's a comic book I want to read right now.

Its first copy came out in 1996.

You can't even find that on the internet.

- Pardon? - I can't hold out.

I need to read that right now.

But it's at your place.

I'll be right there.

It's not you.

I'm getting my comic book.

All right. I'll find it for you.

Okay.

What a huge head.

[Black Dragon]

He acted like he didn't like it.

But he kept it so dearly.

Is it kind of ugly?

Where could the comic book be?

Su Jeong.

Why are you out? I said to come out when I called.

Did you miss me too much?

You're the only one who can free

the Black Dragon.

Please grant me love...

and freedom.

Why is this...

You're Black Dragon, aren't you?

[My Dearest Nemesis]

[We thank Yoon Park for the special appearance]

♫ The showering stars and the round moon ♫

♫ I whisper in the river ♫

♫ Draw me now ♫

♫ We glow under the moonlight ♫

♫ The moon goes out ♫

♫ Even in dark nights ♫

♫ It'd shine on you by the window ♫

I guess I was very lonely again.

You said you liked me, too.

I didn't know who you were then.

I'm sorry.

Could you take it easy on me?

There was a post

on an office worker site this morning.

Team Leader Baek, I heard you're marrying the Director.

- Is that true? - Baek Su Jeong.

Remove her from the company discreetly.

It's not easy. It's expected.

So, let's call it quits.
