(All characters, organizations, places, cases, and incidents...)

(in this drama are fictitious.)

You left the men's room.

Was there anything noteworthy?

No. I went in by mistake...

Oh, no. My goodness.

You have a habit of kissing whenever we meet.

Darn it.

You should've told me you work with Unicon.

I don't date industry people...

It was smudged.

How old are you?

I'm not a minor.

Who said you could talk to me like we're friends?

We already agreed on it. I guess you don't remember.

You've become a hot potato at work.

Is everything okay?

I'm sorry.

I'll pay for your dry cleaning.

What's wrong? Did she not like the music?

No, she's going to pay me.

Excuse me.

This and this.

- So yesterday... - Which one?

- A cappuccino and orange... - Orange juice.

- Orange juice. - We take orders at the counter.

Hello.

Would you like an iced-Americano?

Yes, with lots of ice. Lots and lots of ice.

Is there something wrong?

Why did I ask him how old he is?

Why would I even ask? The younger the better.

I don't know what happened,

but I'm glad it's not something I expected it to be.

What?

I'm just glad to see you again even after the mess you caused...

at the hearing.

Unicon is such a nice company.

Thanks for bringing me back to reality.

Did you finish the meeting with the Gaming Department?

Oh, well... Yes.

Wait for me in my office.

I'll be there soon.

"A web portal must be very progressive and creative."

"Nothing can violate the users' right to know..."

"and their freedom of expression."

"A web portal must think of this as its most important value..."

"and actively do its best to protect it."

Okay.

Use this as reference.

What's this?

Happy birthday.

You never forget.

I won't forget next year either, so don't worry.

See if you like it.

My goodness.

Is it a cigarette holder?

It's pretty.

Smoke like a chimney and die...

so I can finally get promoted.

You really know how to say nice things.

Isn't that why you like me?

I'll skip the reprimand and just check the facts.

I need to prepare for what's to come.

Do you even understand me?

Why is that important right now?

The fact that you did what you did at the hearing...

means you were confident the ID belonged to Assemblyman Joo.

It was mentioned at an interview 11 years ago...

and it could've had a typo.

- So what made you so confident? - Don't worry.

I never looked through his personal data.

Are you sure?

Do you remember when I asked you for his phone number?

Don't ask me why, but can you tell me Joo Seung Tae's phone number?

Okay.

(joost2005: Can you prove that you're underage?)

(Find password)

(Ms. Song: Joo Seung Tae, 010-859-3959)

(Confirm with phone number, Confirm with email)

Look at this punk.

The probability was high enough for me to give it a shot.

That might prove his attempt to solicit a minor,

but you found nothing to prove that he actually did it.

Do I need to go and find evidence too?

I already pay a lot of taxes.

This isn't personal, you know.

The entire company is on the line. If we're sued...

Child prostitution was attempted,

but he'll sue me instead because it never really happened?

That's not a choice a politician can make.

Do you think this makes you a hero?

You put the company in danger...

and offended the congressional hearing.

You're the one who offended the hearing.

If I wanted to be a hero,

I would've confessed that you fabricated the keyword ranking...

on behalf of KU Group...

and revealed that the hearing was a conspiracy.

I didn't though.

Why? I didn't want to burn myself.

The company might see me as a shield that takes the blows,

but I value myself.

I'm the only one who can protect myself,

and I took action for that very reason.

A messed up company. A congressional hearing.

I didn't want to take anyone's side.

Only those in power can do what they want to do.

It's not as if you have what I don't.

A disciplinary hearing will be held soon.

Be prepared.

Why am I up for a disciplinary hearing?

Do you really not know?

Check to see what your actions caused.

The Internet proved its ability once again.

(Jin)

Why aren't you answering?

(Heihachi)

Here's my number. I didn't press "call".

Why not?

Because that's your choice.

What name will you save my number under?

I know your name.

It's Heihachi.

(Heihachi, character from a game)

What exactly do you remember then?

If you don't remember exchanging numbers,

then you'll have no clue that we agreed to speak casually.

Let me pay for the dry-cleaning.

- I'm sorry about... - We didn't have sex.

Why are you lying about that?

Yes, we did.

So you remember.

I thought you wanted to forget.

Why?

Do you think that I'd kill myself for sleeping with you?

We'll end it with this.

Wait, are you paying me for sex?

It's for your dry-cleaning.

Maybe next time.

Take it because there won't be a next time.

That night was a drunken mistake for us both...

Who says it was a mistake?

It wasn't for me.

I'm not that kind of man.

Well, it was for me.

So forget it ever happened.

You're a tease, is that it?

What?

Do you often sleep with random men...

when you feel like it?

That's not it.

I'm never like this...

which is why I feel horrible.

Why?

You never do one-night stands, but you were that attracted to me.

What's so horrid about it?

What kind of a man are you?

Don't you know?

I'm the one you kissed.

Wait, our jungler isn't around.

We need to retreat.

Just let me clear this wave.

- There you are. - Good morning.

Didn't I tell you...

to ventilate the office every two hours?

I was about to. Two hours just passed.

How did the meeting go?

What did Unicon say?

Are they against the romantic background music?

Must we start over?

They want to forget about it all.

What do you mean by that?

Is this another failure then?

No, we should move forward.

They said that...

we had a point.

Yes!

Yes!

I knew it'd work.

Gosh, look at that firm chest of yours.

Move. You're blocking my view.

What's this?

Do these things often happen at meetings?

Maybe I should attend the next one.

It only happens to people like me.

Men with firm chests.

No way.

Gosh, don't tell me I'm late.

Hold on.

You never attend debates.

I'd rather not stay at the company,

and I should get some work done too.

Do you know what the debate is about?

Do you really expect that from a clueless man?

Someone will have to tell me.

It's about the illegal regulations regarding online communities.

The entire thing was triggered by Bae Ta Mi.

Anyway, I hear that she'll be there too.

My goal today is to rattle her cage a bit.

Why?

To expose the real issues of Unicon's operation.

She may have evaded the congressional hearing,

but she'll answer the questions at this debate.

Maybe I should stay.

We ask all online search engines to organize teams...

that specialize in the monitoring of...

online prostitution and gambling communities.

Due to the added attention,

the public has been demanding regulations.

If you're unable to monitor them yourselves,

then we'll be forced...

to discuss legal regulations.

That much we should do.

Are you agreeing to...

government censorship over the Internet?

Fabricating keyword rankings and online prostitution communities.

Why shouldn't there be legal boundaries?

Singapore already has such rules.

However, other countries haven't implemented them.

Internet's best value is its freedom...

and most countries agree on that.

Unicon must be afraid of such regulations.

Those scared are the ones with something to hide.

That's what some people say.

Ms. Cha, that saying came from the Nazis.

Freedom without any obligation is the same as violence, Ms. Bae.

Let's say that someone wrote...

"Cha Hyeon, you lunatic"...

on the wall of my house.

That writing somehow hurt you emotionally.

Must I be punished by law...

just because I built the wall?

Web portal sites only provided the space.

We can't be responsible for the users' actions.

Of course not.

However, what did...

the home owner do after spotting that writing?

Did you erase the doodle...

or do anything to prevent any further scribbles?

Must the government interfere...

and manage my wall because I failed to do so?

Besides, why are you here if you think this is only our fault?

Barro doesn't carry as many illegal sites as Unicon.

That's because you don't have as many users.

Let's be honest here.

Tens of thousands of people joined these illegal communities.

Thousands of people visit them every day...

and page view counts are over 10,000.

We're choosing not to manage these.

The market share rate is delivered to me every morning,

so how can I give up on a page view count of 10,000?

Don't you agree?

What we need...

isn't regulation but fair play.

That's rich...

coming from someone who was at a hearing...

for fabricating the keyword ranking.

Resolve your inferiority complex by being fruitful, Ms. Cha.

Is this...

a sense of inferiority you see?

I'm embarrassed as someone working in the same field.

Then become the number one search engine...

and restore the stature of all the sites.

Why are you all high and mighty when you won first place by cheating?

I'm not proud of it,

but I wouldn't rather be in second place.

I sacrificed myself so that...

people search Unicon's corruption on the Unicon site.

Well... Gosh, I'm sorry about that.

We should discuss,

not insult each other.

Isn't this supposed to be a discussion?

Which room?

(Darn Angry Room)

Die, die, die, die!

- You mean... - Yes.

I'm asking if you'd consider working at Barro.

You're perplexed, aren't you?

Since we're at it,

I can pay you more than what you're paid now.

If you have a team, you can bring them too.

What a tempting offer.

First of all, thank you.

But I'd like to know why me.

We're looking to reform our services.

We need a different opinion. A new opinion.

Barro has a style that we stuck to for 10 years,

and I want to hire an experienced outsider...

who can say this is wrong and that is bad.

And I also think...

you could do with a new work environment.

Isn't it uncomfortable at Unicon since the disaster at the hearing?

It is uncomfortable, and I will be disciplined soon.

But I spent my 20s and 30s at Unicon.

It was my youth.

When we topped 10 million subscribers for the 1st time.

When we reached first place.

When we turned profitable,

and when we moved into the new building.

I was there.

I loved and hated the place vehemently for 13 years.

I can't explain everything,

but even through this crisis,

I want to stay at Unicon.

There's where my life is.

I see. I get what you mean.

Work should be work. Am I too sentimental?

No. I like it.

(Unicon's 10th Anniversary)

(Unicon's 20th Anniversary)

(Bae Ta Mi)

(Year 2006)

(Bae Ta Mi)

You could join any other company with a resume like yours.

- Did you apply anywhere else? - No.

If I may say so, this is my third try to join Unicon.

I didn't even apply to Barro.

(Interviewer)

- Should I not have said that? - It's fine.

I'd like to know why it must be Unicon.

The front page's design is pretty.

- Is that it? - Yes.

I think the Internet is about intuition.

What's pretty at first glance.

What's new at first glance.

What was convenient at first try.

Internet users don't think too much.

They just need one thing to captivate them.

The rest boils up from inside.

I think all of Unicon's designs are for that one experience.

Eventually, because of that simple one thing,

Unicon will beat Barro.

Thank you for acknowledging that.

Unicon and I think alike.

I really want to work where my thoughts are the company's.

We'll begin the disciplinary committee.

Director Bae Ta Mi...

neglected to monitor the online groups,

and let them offer illegal services,

thereby causing social unrest.

Do you admit to that and to ruining the company's reputation?

Is that how you're twisting it?

Do you admit to it?

I thought I'd be disciplined for the show I put on.

Now I get it.

You have no cause to discipline me for that.

Then why should you discipline me?

For whom is this show for?

I'll presume any unrelated comments to mean your admittance.

Director Bae Ta Mi.

According to Unicon Regulations Number 12, dereliction of duty,

and Number 15, neglect of obligations,

you are dismissed.

Did you just say "dismissed"?

You're firing me for not managing online groups?

Wouldn't that be best for your future?

I think we're being considerate.

Considerate?

I gave my youth for a company that thinks firing is considerate.

Why did you all become like this?

Ga Gyeong.

Is this right?

Everything you said was right.

Then you started saying the wrong things.

I once adored you and wanted to be like you.

Then you should've become like me.

Not get fired.

No, not anymore.

Why would I adore you now?

I brought something just in case.

I didn't think I'd use it.

(Resignation)

As of this moment,

I'll leave the rotten company that sides with power...

to change the press, and puts the blame on employees...

to take unjust profit.

Return to your seat.

Don't give orders. I'm no longer your employee.

And you.

Take the resignation, Director Song.

(Resignation)

You get fitter every day, Chairwoman Jang.

When we were hiking earlier,

I could barely keep up.

I quit my 50-year smoking and drinking habit...

just to try to beat you at your game.

I'm a widow who can't smoke or drink.

Meeting you is my only joy in life.

If I'd known you were this easy-going,

we'd have asked you to join us sooner.

I thought she was more like the others than us.

You all work for the government.

Who cares about factions?

Anyway,

Assemblyman Joo's having a hard time, isn't he?

The President must be concerned the ruling party has a problem.

I should cheer you up a little.

Don't do this.

Come on now, it's nothing, really.

It's just red ginseng.

If you two fall ill,

I'd have to hike alone and that would be boring.

We can't have that. We must hike together.

Bae Ta Mi. Did you sort her out?

We fired her.

Is there anything worse?

Because of that psycho,

I have to go hiking with some air-headed fools.

We took a risk by firing her.

No one's been fired for not monitoring a service...

Ga Gyeong.

Why do you have a self?

Unicon's a huge issue these days.

Are you okay?

If I'm okay, why would I be here?

I guess you're right.

Gosh, you must be very distressed.

I should bring you something you can feast your eyes on.

We haven't had a better guy than Min Kyu ever since he left.

Do you keep in touch with him?

Who's Min Kyu?

Han Min Kyu. The guy who worked for me.

He even recently appeared in a drama.

He's really popular these days.

Why would I keep in touch with him?

Yes, you're right. I don't think he keeps in touch with anyone...

in this business after he left.

He never answers my calls.

That's him. The newbie.

Hello.

He looks nice, doesn't he?

Come and sit down.

Okay.

My goodness, you're really pretty.

I thought you were in your 20s.

Do you think I'm here to have you judge me?

Hey.

She's not in a good mood, so don't act up.

Pour her a glass.

- Yes, sir. - Don't add ice in that.

Oh, okay.

Again.

Okay. I'm sorry.

Again.

Okay.

Again.

Again.

Again.

You should have some, too.

Okay.

Drink what you threw away.

The whole thing?

What's with you today?

Today is his first day.

If you do this, he'll just quit.

It's hard to hire people these days.

If you can't drink it, shower yourself with it.

That way, you'll be able to learn that you should never...

judge any of your clients.

Wait. I'm jobless now.

This darn habit.

I always wondered what kind of people...

spent time outside at this hour.

I guess they were all just jobless.

The Search Department just finished...

updating the algorithm for related keywords.

And Jenny wants to edit the main page of the online community...

and wants to meet you at 2pm.

Tell her to come see me at 2:30pm.

I have a meeting with the Video Team at 3pm.

Okay.

And here's today's market share ranking.

(1. Unicon, 2. Barro)

Darn it! I'm sick of being second.

Brian.

You can't just push me like that. I was on the 100th floor.

I thought I was really going to fall.

It really did fall.

Our market share.

I saw it already.

I'm the CEO.

Unicon's brand image is a complete mess right now.

But how are they still number one? Can you accept that?

No, of course not.

Me neither.

Brian, this is a rare opportunity for us to turn the tables around.

I agree with you.

So I'm thinking about forming a Task Force. What do you think?

(Task Force: A temporary team made to accomplish a certain task)

A Task Force?

Scarlett.

What do you think about scouting an outsider?

This country is a mess.

If I keep living like this, I'll be found dead.

I can't let that happen...

I have a headache.

(CEO, Min Hong Ju, Barro)

(CEO, Min Hong Ju, Barro)

Gosh, this place is amazing.

It looks like a house in a foreign country.

This is what my place looked like back when I was in Germany.

This is how I like it.

You must've been startled to hear from me out of the blue.

I was startled because you said...

you want to learn the piano instead of asking me to eat meat.

I was actually worried because the person I ate meat with...

suddenly appeared on TV attending a hearing.

Are you okay?

I'm trying to be.

I became jobless because of that.

But after a few weeks of being jobless,

I figured I should have a hobby if I didn't want to go mad.

That's why I called. I've been wanting to learn the piano anyway.

By the way, if you're good at playing the piano,

can you also play stuff on a tablet...

using the piano app?

That requires another set of skills.

But you'll still have to know how to play the piano first.

You're right.

There's a song I really want to learn how to play.

Can you play the song for me first?

("X1-MA")

[VIU Ver] tvN E02 'Search: WWW'
"My Greed Has No Motivation"
-♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

Are you okay?

Darn this piano version.

I realized...

that I've been missing out a lot because I was so focused on work.

Do you think...

the guy I rooted for got eliminated because I didn't vote for him?

Of course, National Producer.

There's nothing I can do for him now.

The background music for the Garden of Dreams...

should be arranged to sound a bit more relaxed.

It's important to match the overall music,

but I think it'll help the users feel less fatigued...

if we use visual effects to show that they're on a different map.

I agree with you.

Then we'll regroup after the final arrangement.

Sure thing.

Good job, everyone.

- Thank you. - Good job.

- Have a good day. - You too.

I'm sorry, but I didn't catch your name.

I'm Managing Director Song Ga Gyeong.

I'll remember that.

- Good job today. - I'm sorry,

but isn't Ms. Bae going to attend these meetings anymore?

She offered some nice opinions.

(Personnel Announcement)

(Bae Ta Mi, Director of Service Strategy, Fired)

When the job is too much,

you say that you'd rather die.

However, you rush to a doctor even when you barely get sick.

We're all liars.

All we want is to just be healthy.

So I just type in the word "Western Australia"...

and look at the photos.

Long roads without any curves,

stars that fall almost too perfectly,

weird-looking stones,

the desert, and the ocean.

Things like that.

I went to high school in Australia.

Really?

But I came back...

because I love Korea.

Is that so? Then...

You must be happy now.

I have a friend who can't get enough of backpacking trips.

I asked why she keeps on setting out,

and she said it was to spill her secrets.

On trips,

you only encounter people that you'll only meet once.

Neither of you know who the other person is,

so there's no reason to kiss up to anyone.

My secrets, my shame,

my mistakes,

my weaknesses,

and even my pain.

I can tell...

the stranger anything.

You can be most honest with someone you hardly know.

I now know what she meant by that.

It's like you and me, right?

On that note, I'll let you in on a secret.

I...

wish Ga Gyeong...

would stop.

I want...

to be good friends with her again.

(Heihachi)

(Heihachi)

Hello?

Eat.

Eat up.

Fish, you have a job to do.

Meanwhile, I'm jobless.

Excuse me, are you the one I called?

Your friend is quite drunk.

We're not exactly friends.

I'm probably here as her guardian.

Ms. Bae...

Ms. Bae?

What are you doing here?

Are you following me?

Why?

Was I that good?

You're shameless, aren't you?

Snap out of it already.

Why are you stopping me from talking?

Are jobless people not allowed to talk?

Can I get the bill, please?

Don't let your legs give out.

I'm walking just fine.

There's no need to nag.

So where are we going? Another round of drinks?

As if.

- Where do you live? - My house?

Are you going to take me home?

Who are you to escort me back home?

Are we friends?

Stop acting like we are.

I'm just being a decent person.

Why did you drink so much?

Is this common for you?

You, Park Morgan.

I see you remember my name, Bae Ta Mi.

I thought I said we should never cross paths again.

As strangers who know nothing about one another.

Let's just keep it that way.

It's late.

Besides, we know too much about each other...

to go back to being strangers.

There's no sun for those who meet at night.

Just the moon.

See? It's nighttime again.

Seeking each other for drinks, spending the night together,

and wandering what we are after the sun has come up...

is what you do in your 20s.

I'm no longer interested in such emotional exhaustion.

Those relationships make you even lonelier.

I'm not interested in that either.

Then what is it that you want?

I doubt that's an option right now.

How are you at leading people on?

I'm offering myself up.

You weren't so bad at feeding the fish earlier.

Toss some my way from time to time, and I'll hold out.

I'm actually quite relentless.

You're cute.

Then you should have me.

Now that I'm without a job, I wouldn't mind...

a shoulder to lean on.

What happened?

Did you sleep well?

Why are you outside?

In case you snored.

You should've listened.

In case I liked it.

I asked for your address and you only gave the area.

Where should I go?

I know where we are.

I live nearby. I'll walk from here.

Will you be okay?

Did I call you?

I want to lie and say yes.

I called you and the bar owner answered.

Asking me to take you home.

Why did you call?

I was worried.

I should go.

Thanks for the lift.

Why are you here?

I came because I thought you'd ignore my call.

I thought I should return this.

(Resignation)

I can't accept your resignation.

Do you want me to...

return now?

No, of course you can't return.

You didn't resign. You were fired.

That's why I can't accept this.

We packed your things. Pick them up when you can.

And return the company credit card.

Why are you being so harsh to me?

I had hope.

You were nasty to my face,

but I hoped that behind the scenes,

you'd defend me and say it was wrong to fire me.

Our friendship's a mess now,

but we've done so much together.

You were a great mentor...

and a great partner.

My memories of those times are clearer than of us now.

That's why, when I saw you outside my place,

I thought we could reconcile.

But instead, you do this to me.

Why are you going so far? Why?

This is even worse than how you fired me.

I won't reproach you.

So don't you criticize me.

Did you deal with Bae Ta Mi?

I forgot to give this to you.

(Julie's Piano Class)

Did you see?

I happened to.

You see me at my worst.

I hate that.

What's so bad?

A woman who gets drunk and sleeps with a stranger...

just whined at the superior who fired her.

The man who got drunk and slept with a stranger...

whined at investors,

started a company, and went broke.

If you're talking about hardships,

you have nothing on me, so don't even start.

(Resignation)

Practice how to play the piano,

Ta Mi.

(Bae Ta Mi)

(Pharmacy)

Take this for your hangover.

I told you a secret.

I want you to tell me one now.

We know little of each other...

and don't have to impress each other.

That way I'll feel less ashamed.

Park...

Morgan.

That's my name.

I don't like it that...

we're both anonymous.

That's...

the secret...

I have today.

(Go to the Prosecutors' Office)

You'll be asked how you found out...

Assemblyman Joo Seung Tae tried to...

prostitute a minor, and how you looked into the issue.

It won't take long.

Okay.

Wait in Room 203.

I'll see you shortly.

How did it feel to become a star?

How dare a sex offender talk to me?

You ruined Unicon and the hearing.

Are you pleased you got out unscathed?

I am.

The thought of putting trash like you behind bars...

makes life worth living.

I hate witches like you the most.

You're not good or evil.

You don't kneel or fight.

You're blinded by your greed and only want to survive.

You're like a dog.

What? Is that bad?

Can't I be a dog?

Why can't I be blinded by my greed?

What made you like this?

Do you expect me to want to...

avenge my parents or...

get back at my ex-husband?

My greed has no motivation.

I created it myself, though I bet you never imagined that.

But your lust...

is illegal.

I hope you're never happy for a day.

Mr. Min?

It's Bae Ta Mi.

I'll work at Barro.

(Personnel Announcement)

(Bae Ta Mi)

(Dismissed)

Hey, everyone.

- Ms. Bae. - My goodness.

- What are you doing here? - Ms. Bae.

Was there a personnel appointment already?

Unicon really is a flexible company.

I'll be working at Barro starting from tomorrow.

As long as I'm there,

I'm going to make sure Unicon ranks second in the business.

Hey, what are you...

So make sure you stay alert and do your best.

Use everything I taught you.

And think about how to use my weaknesses against me.

You're the ones who know me best.

So don't let me win without a fight.

Achieve more than I ever did. Do you understand?

I only recently got a job here, so I didn't learn much from you.

Is that my fault?

No.

So I'm planning to learn from now on at Barro.

Please take me with you.

Ms. Bae?

- Does it have to be you? - What?

Okay, but on one condition.

If you want to work with me, get that smile off your face.

Okay!

Okay.

Are we heading straight to Barro?

No, there's one more person I need to take with me.

Who's that?

Jo A Ra.

Jo A Ra? Who's that?

The smartest employee in Unicon.

(Jo A Ra)

- Do you love your current job? - Pardon?

Is it your dream to become a barista?

Or is it your goal to take over this cafe? Or is it both?

I don't think so.

Then quit your job here and come with me to Barro.

I heard Ta Mi's going to work at Barro.

Yes.

Is Choi Bong Gi the only person she took with her?

She also hired the part-timer who works at our cafe.

How typical of her.

How long have you and Ta Mi worked together?

This was our 13th year.

And how long has it been since you two fell apart?

I can't quite remember.

Hello?

Ms. Song, something got posted on our online bulletin board.

- And I thought you should read it. - What is it?

Ms. Bae uploaded the post.

(Online Bulletin Board)

Code of ethics for web portals. Article One.

A web portal must be very progressive and creative.

Nothing can violate the users' right to know...

and their freedom of expression.

(Code of ethics for web portals, Article 2)

Code of ethics for web portals. Article Two.

A web portal should not manipulate or conceal information.

It must protect its users from all kinds of pressures,

violations, restrictions, and discriminations...

that try to harm their rights.

Code of ethics for web portals. Article Three.

A web portal must not be swayed by one's private interest.

It should remain independent from internal...

and external influences such as politics, economics, and society.

And it must not intervene in anything...

that might harm its impartiality.

Code of ethics for web portals. Article Four.

A web portal must manage, supervise, and be responsible...

for everything that happens on the site.

It should never stay quiet about them or try to avoid them.

Code of ethics for web portals. Article Five.

A web portal's power to influence comes from its users,

and it influences them at the same time.

It must never aim to gain any unjustifiable benefits,

and it must not wield any improper influence.

This code of ethics for web portals...

was written by Ms. Song and I eight years go.

I empathized and agreed with everything that's written here.

And I still agree with it to this very day.

Goodbye, everyone.

Are you ready for your first day of work?

- Yes! - I'm perfectly ready!

Look at...

- Hi. - Hello.

Hello.

(There's been a drought warning throughout the nation...)

This company must spend its profits on decorating the place.

I wonder why they rank second in the business.

It's natural for companies like this to rank second...

because they use their money to buy nice chairs.

There's a cafe here as well.

Should we have some coffee? I'll treat.

Three Americanos, please.

Iced-Americanos.

If you work here, you can get a discount by paying monthly.

- Really? - This is incredible.

(Joo Seung Tae Suspected of Having Solicited Sex from a Minor)

We'll get the discount next time. Have a good day.

- Let's go. Come on. - What?

- Let's go. - But...

But...

Bae Ta Mi?

- Hello. - What's this?

Why are you here?

You're the one who showed up. I was just standing here.

Go ahead and keep walking. We can greet each other next time.

I need to ride the elevator.

I'm asking...

why you're here.

Let's also save that for next time.

Bye.

Do you know her?

She's so scary.

Don't worry. I'm scarier than her.

It said "Scarlett, Director of the Social Department" on her ID.

But she's Korean.

People here use English names.

We'll also have to play along with that corny gig.

My gosh.

What is with him?

My goodness, then I guess...

In July...

Hey, Ta Mi. You got here early.

You weren't in your office, so it took a while to find you.

Oh, really?

I'm rarely in my office.

It gets lonely in there.

I don't think I'll be lonely anymore though.

Hello, everyone.

We'll exchange proper greetings in my office.

Jenny, please come with us.

This way.

Why is she here?

What business does Bae Ta Mi have here?

Scarlett, keep your voice down.

There are eyes and ears from Unicon everywhere.

Besides, I hear that...

Unicon fired Bae Ta Mi.

Where did you hear that?

Here, from all the people with mouths.

Then why is she at Barro?

Darn it.

I think I know why she's here.

I knew it.

Scarlett, I'm glad you're here.

Brian,

what's going on?

Please sit.

Alex, you too.

Come on.

All right.

Finally, everyone has gathered.

Please don't tell me that...

she'll be at our office tomorrow too.

Everyone at this table is now on one team.

What are you saying?

How are we a team?

That irony is what makes you special.

You are...

the elite members of...

of a special task force that was formed to reclaim...

Barro's reputation as Korea's best web portal.

The name of your team is the Service Reform Team,

and you'll work to make us the top portal site again.

Your team leader is Ms. Bae Ta mi.

Count me out.

Scarlett,

I wasn't asking for your opinion.

I'm announcing your new assignment.

You appointed someone you hired today as a team leader.

Have I not proven myself?

To beat Unicon, you hired someone from over there.

It's absurd.

We needed someone who was different.

We need new ideas and a different view on things.

Because of our motto and the way we work,

there are methods we never attempted.

We need someone who can take those risks.

That's why I think Ms. Bae is perfect for the job.

Does that answer your question?

I don't want to work on a team led by someone...

like Bae Ta Mi.

If you need someone like her, then so be it.

I'm out.

Scarlett,

this team needs you as well.

Then choose between us...

because I won't accept this team.

Wait, what now?

It went better than I expected.

Right?

You're saying that this was nothing?

No one got hurt, so all is good.

I guess this will be my first assignment as team leader.

Ms. Cha.

Why do you hate me?

Are you annoyed that I was hired as team leader...

right after being fired by a rival company?

If not, this seems...

like an inferiority complex at best.

You think that way because it's how you're wired.

Win or lose, superior or inferior.

That's how you're wired to think.

I know that you're smart.

You never apologized at the hearing,

but people believe you did the right thing.

You made them believe.

Exposing an assemblyman as a sex offender? That's great.

However,

all I see...

is a weasel who cleverly evaded prosecution.

Work with me.

- What? - I need that point of view...

and someone to say it to my face.

I just said that I can't work with you.

When Unicon made me attend the congressional hearing,

I was given orders to say that...

nothing was fabricated...

and it was only an algorithm error.

I didn't want to say it though.

The hearing itself was deeply annoying,

but I didn't want to lie.

You said that I sounded like a weasel there,

but I was shouting in despair.

I couldn't admit to anything nor could I deny,

but I at least wanted to keep a clear conscience.

You told me not to be caught up in heroism.

A hero? Someone great?

I don't care about any of that.

All I care right now...

is making Barro Korea's number one web portal.

That's where you come in,

so work with me.

All you care about is winning.

That's why I'm here.

You don't like my methods. I'm cool with that.

Am I tactless? I admit to that too.

What I'll be doing at this company won't be cool.

What gets you to the top normally isn't.

If you know a way to reach the top with dignity,

be the team leader.

If not, follow my lead.

I don't care if you hate it.

This is the job and the industry we're in.

As the team leader, I'll take full responsibility.

Are you sure about that?

What will you do if Barro doesn't become number one?

What should I do?

6 months, not 12.

If you don't beat Unicon by then,

you'll step down and hand in your resignation.

Sure.

But I can win.

Ga Gyeong?

Let go.

I already feel the burn, so just slap me.

No, you haven't felt anything yet.

I'm glad that my post felt like an insult to you.

Shut it.

I felt guilty about uploading that post,

but the slap washed it away.

It's now...

your turn to get a little uncomfortable.

(Search: WWW)

We're leading the market while Barro needs to catch up.

Barro gets instant results.

Are you suggesting that we lie?

Is it really a lie though?

I will only oppose to what Ta Mi says.

Could we meet later on?

This isn't how I like to start relationships.

You're not picking up.

I don't want this to happen again.

This work is pathetic!

Did you say anything to Unicon?

Are you accusing me of relaying information?

Did you do something about it?

Of course I did.

What can I do then?

Work for Unicon from inside Barro.
