Original subtitles

Once the trust between the boss and the secretary breaks,

you know what happens.

Jeong Gal Hee.

You're fired.

The secret that can't be told.

(Episode 13: The Secret That Can't Be Told)

Have I ever told you...

why I helped you?

Do you know about arowana?

I do. Very well.

They say it brings luck whatsoever.

It's from my late father.

There was a person who cherished fish more than his secretary.

How many times did I tell you?

I said I'm going to give this fish to Min Ik,

so you need to treat it well!

- Sorry, sir. - Sorry, sir.

Do whatever it takes to keep it alive.

If it dies, you two will die too.

Go cure it!

Goodness.

(Chairman of TnT Mobile, Do Wan Bae)

Yes, sir. We're now on our way.

Yes, at the junction...

Hey.

Do whatever it takes to keep it alive.

If it dies, you two will die too.

Oh, no!

His secretary died to save a fish,

but the company didn't even count it as an industrial accident.

Because if it was reported as an industrial accident,

it would reveal how he made her work during off-hours...

and received a fish that was worth 100,000 dollars under the table.

So I replaced the fish...

with another fish that was worth 10,000 dollars.

- And with the money... - Eul Wang.

Where did you get this money?

I paid for her son's tuition,

since she never received any compensation.

That's when I formed a society called Euldoguk.

We took dirty money from those in power...

and returned the money to those who were treated unfairly.

- No. - We replaced the paintings...

they received as bribery with replicas.

And we collected large amounts of condolence money...

that goes against the anti-graft law to raise a fund.

We, the dispatched workers of TnT Mobile...

were never even able to take a short break.

But we finally succeeded in making a waiting room for us!

Every single penny we gathered...

was used to improve the treatment of our dispatched employees.

That's how we were able to make a waiting room for the drivers.

- So what? My gosh. - That's why I couldn't ignore it...

- I'll call you back. - when I first heard your story.

Just hang up for now.

My gosh, darn it.

Hey.

How many times have I told you not to eat in the car?

No, sir. I never eat in the car...

because I know you don't like it.

Then what's this smell?

Maybe it's coming from the heater.

Are you kidding me? Hey, you fool.

Do you think I can't differentiate the smell of food and the heater?

Do you think I'm an idiot or something? Hey!

Hey!

Hey! Hey!

(Eun Jung Su, Hanguk Hospital)

What do you mean?

Why won't the company file this as an industrial accident?

President Sim is throwing a fit...

saying he's going to sue you for attempted murder.

I just got a call from the service center,

and apparently he said you purposely caused the accident...

to take revenge on him for hurting your neck.

What?

Then who's...

Who's going to pay for my injured knee?

Hello? Hello?

Mr. Eun Jung Su?

Who are you?

I'm Lee Eul Wang. I'm here because Secretary Mo told me about you.

Euldoguk filed your accident as an industrial accident,

and it's a total of 10,610 dollars that's worth six months of your pay.

I don't know...

if I'm allowed to take this money.

Take it.

This is why I made this organization in the first place.

Then in return for taking this, let me be of help...

to Euldoguk in any way.

I'm not sure.

I'll do whatever I can to help you.

Then can you be in charge of our ledger?

I feel uneasy about keeping it in the company.

Of course. Whatever you need, Boss.

"Boss"?

This is an auto escape knife.

I always kept it with me ever since I began...

working as a driver at the age of 20.

I wanted to keep myself safe...

just in case anything happened in the car.

One boss pulled on my hair because he didn't like...

how I always followed the traffic signals.

And one boss...

threw a cigarette butt at me...

because I yielded the way to another car.

I want to have a boss whom I can respect,

not just someone who's high in rank.

Ha Ni said she'll leave the ledger in the office.

Just wait here a little bit.

Did she go somewhere?

Where's the USB?

My gosh, I told him that this is confidential.

Yes, Boss.

I think Director Do has the ledger.

We can't let him see the file.

Didn't you say you heard where he's headed?

I think he's going meet Dae Ju at the Han River.

Then please make sure Director Gi doesn't make it there.

I'll retrieve the ledger.

Hey, you're here.

Who...

If only...

Who are you?

If only I didn't insist on going there to find the ledger.

I'd like to turn myself in.

What?

I wanted to be of help,

but I only ended up making things worse.

Now that Director Do saw the ledger,

it's only a matter of time before he finds out about Euldoguk.

I'll just turn myself in...

and say I'm responsible for both the ledger...

and the accident that happened to Director Do.

No.

The company and President Sim are the ones who should get punished.

Why should you get punished instead?

But what if...

everyone in Euldoguk ends up getting fired?

Director Do...

has trouble seeing people's faces because of me.

How is that your fault?

It's his father's fault for only hiring dispatched workers...

to cut down the company's personnel expense.

And it's also President Sim's fault for treating his driver...

like a slave.

I'll make sure nothing happens to Euldoguk.

Mr. Eun, go somewhere nice and get some rest for a few days.

I'll call you as soon as I'm done dealing with the situation.

We'll get in an old car in Havana...

and drive by the Malecon Beach.

Then we'll go to a salsa club...

and get ourselves some nice mojitos.

(Sangmo Hospital)

Why do you suddenly want to go to Cuba?

If you must go, take your girlfriend with you.

Were you not listening to me?

I spent the past hour telling you about my sad love story.

The two women I was in love with...

ended up being the same woman.

So you want me to leave my patients behind and go to Cuba with you?

Then whom do you suggest I go with?

My secretary lied to me.

I doubted my friend. And as for my family...

Well...

I never had one to begin with.

Let me see.

I can't go to Cuba with you, but I can take a look at your neck.

By the way,

if the two women you were in love ended up being the same woman,

isn't that a good thing?

A good thing?

You know that's not the point!

I'm sure she had a good reason.

Whose side are you on?

My goodness. Okay, fine.

My gosh, that darn wench! What a horrible witch!

How nasty of her! Are you happy now?

But I guess you didn't forget to take your medicine.

Thanks to that, it didn't get any worse.

Otherwise, you would've ended up in a severe condition.

Whatever. I'm going to go.

I have other places to go too!

I can't believe...

I have no other place to go other than here.

Here. You can have it.

I got sick of it.

Yes, Mr. Park.

What about Mr. Eun's hometown number or any other contacts?

Okay.

If you get a hold of him, please let me know.

Okay, bye.

Who is it?

I heard what happened at the police station.

But when I first met Mr. Eun, he didn't seem like a bad guy.

Dae Ju, since you already handed in your resignation letter,

how about we go to Cuba and learn how to dance salsa?

Why would you go to Cuba?

You have three days left until the election. You don't know that?

I don't know.

President, my foot.

And you said you saw the suspect's face.

Then how could you not recognize the man who stabbed you...

when he came back as your driver?

The thing is...

I got hurt a little.

You got hurt?

That day I had an accident at the boat.

I hurt my head that day.

Apparently, the clip they put in my head during the surgery...

slipped or something.

What?

You said you were fine.

- Dae Ju. - Yes?

Dae Ju.

What?

I...

can't see...

your face.

What?

Your eyes,

nose,

and mouth.

I can't see any of them.

Maybe...

Probably...

I'll have to live this way for the rest of my life.

I feel bad for you who's taken care of me since I was seven.

So I...

didn't want to tell you this.

Min Ik.

You know what?

If you can't see people's faces,

you can't see their hearts as well.

I can't tell...

what face they're making or what they're thinking about.

I'm sorry, Dae Ju.

But...

I couldn't ask for more from you.

Shall we go out?

Why aren't you coming?

Are you coming late today?

Why aren't you showing up today?

Jeong Gal Hee.

You're fired.

Jeong Gal Hee?

Why are you still up?

Jung Hee.

This is strange.

Mom is not coming.

I guess Mom hates me now.

I think she hates me because I'm a bad person.

What do I do now?

What's wrong? Did something happen?

If I go back to him tomorrow...

and apologize for what I've done,

will he forgive me?

I guess no one wants to see me.

Who wouldn't want to see you?

You have me. I want to see you, but I probably can't forever.

Who wouldn't want to see such a precious face?

[VIU Ver] SBS E25 'The Secret Life of My Secretary' "You're Fired!" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

(One moment of patience may ward off great disaster)

As of today,

I announce the dissolution of Euldoguk.

What?

Why all of a sudden, Ms. Lee?

Is it because Director Do got the ledger?

We will have to wait and watch how it goes,

but now that Mr. Eun is running from the police,

it's about time Director Do will make a move.

Still,

you know what we've been through for Euldoguk.

Like I promised when you joined us,

I'll take full responsibility in the case when we get caught.

So if something happens in the company,

state that you had nothing to do with me.

State that Euldoguk was also run all by myself.

Hey.

Didn't you say this to me before?

That we should settle a girl problem.

Next time.

I don't want to break your heart when your head is already hurt.

I told you. Since I can't see your face,

I might easily misunderstand you.

Gosh, what is it?

Veronica Park.

- What? - I like her too.

Gosh, you competent rascal.

I wondered how you got the contract with Cinepark.

Hey, do you think this is funny?

So...

it's true that I liked Veronica Park.

But it turns out...

she was just a stranger.

What are you talking about?

It's a long story.

Can't you be more creative with your pitiful act?

Do you really need some props like this?

Your neck cast is finally off.

I'm...

wearing a waist support instead.

I couldn't stretch my back until yesterday because of my mom.

And I finally became able to straighten myself this morning.

What did Chairwoman Park say?

When she heard about Director Gi.

She kept hitting me, so I don't remember well.

But forfeiture of property, severance of mom-daughter relations,

and bloodlust.

I think...

I heard things like that.

What did your boss say?

I got fired.

It's good that he didn't file a suit.

What am I supposed to do?

I was thinking about going back to him...

and asking for forgiveness.

You've seen a lot of rich people abusing their power on TV.

Did you ever see them forgive someone...

after receiving a genuine apology?

But I can't just sit back and do nothing.

Of course you have to do something.

When I got hit by my mom, I kept shouting and groaning.

She will feel better only when I make some reactions.

What should I do then?

When you can't think of anything,

the best cure is...

What?

First, you should eat something really expensive.

- Eat something? - Yes.

Something that makes you say, "This tiny dish is this expensive?"

"This place must be insane!"

Something so expensive that makes you feel like that.

Then you should buy pretty things that are totally useless.

And watch some comedy shows that make you giggle.

It has to be so funny to the point it makes you feel bad...

for laughing so much even when you got fired.

Then you will definitely come up with an idea...

on what you should do.

Good luck.

See you.

(This area is under surveillance.)

Hello.

Did you just ask me...

who I am?

Nice to meet you.

I'm the original Veronica Park.

Hi.

Why did you want to see me?

Well...

I couldn't just sit and watch her being in misery.

I suppose she has been staying in bed this whole time...

because her room smelled like a stable.

And she must've cried the whole day because her eyes were all swollen.

She looked miserable.

If you're done talking, please excuse me.

I told her to do it.

She's the one who started it,

but I'm the one who made her keep doing it.

She wanted to tell you the truth even if it'd put her life at risk.

I'm the one who stopped her, saying I will make you a president.

Why did you do that?

That was the only way...

I could meet Dae Ju.

If she never started in the first place,

she wouldn't have had to let you use her.

She did all that because she liked you so much.

I understand that you're angry,

and it's your decision whether you forgive her or fire her.

But I think you should know this one thing.

When you confessed your feelings to her,

she was so happy.

She said she even felt sick.

Because her heart pounded so much.

She said she got her arm injured,

but felt like she had her heart injured.

You said you quit. Why do you keep coming to the office?

I forgot to tell Secretary Lee about it.

I have to tell her before my resignation gets accepted.

She doesn't seem to be in a good mood these days.

Remember the file I've found from your room?

It bothered me that it had your name on it,

so I couldn't ask anyone yet.

If you don't mind,

I would like to send it to the audit department.

Okay.

Send me the file too. I will have a look.

Okay.

About Secretary Jeong...

You're not cutting her off for good, are you?

Why would I see her again?

You can't see people's faces.

How will you prepare for the board meeting?

I can do it by myself.

Min Ik.

I saw it.

Saw what?

I have less than an hour left...

until the time we promised to spend together is over.

Her face when she said she'd like to be with you for just one hour.

It's something I can never get again.

And this isn't how I want to spend the time left.

Do you like Min Ik that much?

Her face when she said she'd like to be your secretary at least.

I want to protect him.

If I can't be his woman,

I want to be at least his secretary.

Perhaps, Secretary Jeong has been telling you that...

that she wants to tell you the truth...

and that she likes you.

But you failed see her message.

I should go home.

You're nagging a lot.

That's what it is like to like someone.

Even if that person you like let you down or hurt you once,

you can still forgive that person.

Forgive her.

Just like she gave you another chance...

when you fired her.

I'm home.

How can you lead a company when you can't even win a woman's heart?

I met Chairwoman Park today and I couldn't believe what she said.

Do you know whom Veronica is seeing?

Don't bother Dae Ju because of that.

Please.

How could you let someone like him steal your woman?

Mom.

I can't eat peanuts.

What?

I'm deadly allergic to peanuts.

You seemed to not know that when we had lunch that day.

Why are you suddenly talking about peanuts?

If it was so important, you should have told me.

I did.

I passed out at the school picnic when I was in elementary school...

because of that.

Dae Ju took me to the emergency room when I was in high school...

because of that too.

Last year, when we had a new housekeeper,

Secretary Jeong had to run to our place with medicine.

It was all because of peanuts.

And every time it happened,

I told you about it.

Are you lecturing me to become a better mother?

No.

You don't need to care about it, as always.

Luckily, I have people around me who take care of me...

and kept me alive.

But...

you're the one who always said...

if you're going to fake it, fake it well.

It's okay for you to not know my birthday.

But I think you should at least know this.

I'm sorry I let you down.

Still,

I love you, Mom, as always.

I know you hate me,

but please take this before you go to bed.

How can I forgive her when she isn't even sending me one text,

saying that she's sorry?

I will cut it now.

It seems like people do this when someone gets their arm injured.

- Wait, no. - What?

I don't want to cut it.

This can't be cut no matter what.

Could you please cut down this part?

Sure.

Director Do...

He must be here for the regular checkup.

Is he skipping his meals?

Why does he look so skinny?

The board meeting is tomorrow.

I wonder if he'll be able to handle it by himself.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, Director Do.

(Episode 26 will air shortly.)

First, you should eat something really expensive.

Okay. Let's give it a try.

Hi, do you want to play with me?

You don't want to play with me either, do you?

I'm such a horrible person, aren't I?

What do you think I should do?

You don't know?

Do you think I can see Director Do again?

Really? I can see him again?

Sir, I would like to buy that.

Here I come

Here I come

The beggar from last year came back alive

There's an old saying that goes...

This is really funny.

Have some respect, you punk!

You...

Darn it.

Is this Pennsylvania?

I was sorry.

What?

You said I was the only one who can change our social class...

and you had high hopes on me.

I couldn't say I got rejected.

That's your excuse?

I tried to tell you the truth,

but as time passed, I got scared.

I was afraid you wouldn't forgive me.

You...

Who do you think is the person that loves you the most?

I might not be the one you love the most,

but your brother and I love you the most.

Hiding is worse than lying.

Our family is just us three.

It's not like we will not see each other for life.

Even if you were scared, you should have come talked to me.

You can't just hide like this...

Nam Hee.

Could you say what I just said?

What?

Could you reiterate what I just said to you?

Hiding is worse than lying.

I'm the person that love you the most.

It's not like we will not see each other for life.

Right.

I shouldn't be hiding.

Even if I'm scared, I shouldn't do this to someone who liked me.

And tomorrow is the most important day in his life.

What are you talking about?

I'm sorry I'm such a horrible sister.

I think I need to go to the office now.

You pack everything and come back home tomorrow.

Gal Hee.

Gal Hee!

House deed, submitted.

The quarterly report...

and stock report.

Should I contact the directors in advance?

Sir.

It's me, Secretary Jeong.

Do you...

not know what "fired" means?

I know.

But I have something I must tell you.

Three minutes...

No. Could you give me just one minute to say it?

I want you to leave.

I have nothing to hear from you.

Then while you brew the coffee,

please hear me out.

At first,

I just wanted to sit on the chair you pulled out for me.

You probably don't understand this,

but I have always been pulling out chairs for others,

and I wanted to sit on a chair that someone pulled out for me.

Although I think, it wasn't just about the chair.

Because I was happy.

Being a woman to you made me happy.

The woman you loved...

was the fake me and not the real me.

But you still loved me anyway.

I couldn't stop because those moments made me so happy.

I'm sorry.

Are you done?

I know what I did was inexcusable...

and that you hate me.

What are you trying to say?

Tomorrow is...

the most important day in your life.

You have been working hard for that one day.

As long as I don't put on that cardigan,

you won't have to see my face, the face you hate to see.

So could you just think I'm some other secretary and let me help?

I won't ask you to treat me as a woman.

I won't treat you as a man.

I just want to see you winning the president position.

Then I will leave.

So please let me be your secretary...

until tomorrow.

Do you remember I said...

that I will never be able to trust anyone...

if you lie to me?

You should go.

You don't belong here anymore.

Then I'll be waiting outside.

Just call me whenever you need anything.

Isn't it a bit too hot to burn firewood in June?

It's kind of like the Sunshine Policy.

Why did you do that?

Because that policy...

ended up making you take your coat off.

I'm talking about Secretary Jeong.

I guess we won't be spending a hot evening tonight.

You knew everything.

That's why you kept saying we were in a love triangle...

when you had never even met Min Ik before.

Yes, you're right.

It's true that I told her to lie to him.

Brace yourself.

Tonight's going to be a very harsh night.

Who is she?

I'm embarrassed to say this, but she's my mother.

Hello, ma'am.

So you're telling me that you canceled...

your wedding with Director Do...

because of this cunning little guy...

named Gi Dae Ju or whatever his name is?

Mother!

Let's be reasonable here and not mess with a man's back.

I can bear with having scoliosis...

or a herniated disk.

But if you ever end up...

hurting this man's back,

I assure you that I won't stand still.

What's wrong with you?

How could such a delicate and soft woman like her...

do anything to hurt me?

Okay, then. What does your father do?

Mother.

I already checked his background.

And you won't be satisfied...

with the answers you're about to get.

You lied...

to both families and said you were dating Do Min Ik...

as if you had two bodies.

But you ended up choosing a guy whom I won't even be satisfied with?

Ma'am, I know I might seem very lacking to you. But...

I'll give you exactly one month.

During that month, you can enjoy...

your passionate love with him just like that firewood.

But let's marry someone who fit each other's levels.

During that time, I'll do whatever I can...

to convince Chief Director Sim to change her mind.

I ended up showing you the ugly side of a conglomerate family.

I guess it was because of me.

I'm the reason why you made Secretary Jeong lie.

I'll do everything I can to satisfy your mother.

Forget about satisfying my mother.

From now on, I want you to focus on satisfying me.

After all, I have...

very high hopes for you, Dae Ju.

What do you mean?

I'm hoping you'll become...

a certain type of guy.

What type of guy?

A competent guy?

Then...

a diligent guy?

A wild guy.

You've shown me your capability...

at the movie premiere the other night.

What do you say?

Would you like to show me more of what you're capable of tonight?

[VIU Ver] SBS E26 'The Secret Life of My Secretary' "I'm Sorry, Director Do" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

Is that Secretary Jeong?

I told her to leave. Why is she still there?

Hey, Director Kim.

Okay, I'll be right there.

Okay.

Don't worry too much. I'll see you at the board meeting.

Okay, I look forward to your support.

According to our research, it's 3 against 3.

What about Director Kwak and Director Yang?

They both haven't said anything.

I think they'll decide tomorrow.

But I really have no idea what Director Gi is thinking.

President Sim, did you hear?

Director Park from Cinepark just told me something.

Apparently, President Park already signed for the exclusive rights.

What? What did you say?

Then why didn't Director Gi say anything to President Sim?

Do... Do you think he gave it to Director Do?

Darn it.

Wait...

That's why he handed in a resignation letter?

There's no way I'm going to file his resignation.

I'll frame him for leaking confidential information...

or embezzlement,

and make the company take disciplinary action on him...

so that he'll never be able to get a job in this business again.

If he got the contract, it should be here somewhere.

(Humans is unfair, but the deities are just.)

What's this?

"Humans is unfair, but the deities are just"?

Yes, President Sim.

I'm actually looking at the file that I got from Director Do.

It turns out that someone embezzled the company's money.

Who? Min Ik?

- No, Lee Eul Wang. - Who's Lee Eul Wang?

Director Gi's secretary.

But what's interesting is...

she used the money to make a waiting room for the drivers...

and handle industrial accidents.

And it seems like a few other secretaries were involved in this.

All I want is to catch a big fish. I don't need a small fry.

See if Director Do received any illegal money.

And investigate all the associated secretaries...

so I can fire them all.

I'm Lee Eul Wang.

So you're the one...

who instigated everyone to steal.

I never instigated anyone.

I did everything on my own.

I already know...

that there are more people involved.

You can fire me or kill me. Do whatever you want.

But the others didn't know what they were doing.

They're just victims who were forced to do what they were told.

I'm sorry.

Fishing isn't about letting the fish go free.

It's all about catching fish...

and killing them whether it's a big fish or a small fry.

Watch carefully...

and see how your lives will turn out.

You won't gain anything from trying to stop me.

Then...

how about I catch you a big fish?

What?

If I catch a big fish for you so you can become the president,

will you let the others go free?

How can you do something that even I can't?

"Anyone who is suffering from a mental or physical disorder..."

"and isn’t capable of performing their duty..."

"cannot be elected as president."

Director Do...

is currently suffering from a severe illness.

Min Ik?

What's his illness?

I want you to promise...

that you'll only fire me...

and won't do anything to the others.

Of course you should see it before making any decision.

Okay.

I'll see you tomorrow, Director Yang.

Bye.

I'll be doomed if I don't recognize the directors' faces tomorrow.

I've been trying to memorize it though. Where's my note?

Is it in the office?

She didn't even pack her stuff.

She should've taken this.

Right.

She won't even wear it unless it's for me.

(I'm so sorry, Director Do. I didn't mean to lie to you from the start.)

Perhaps,

Secretary Jeong has been telling you...

that she wants to tell you the truth...

and that she likes you.

She said she even felt sick.

Because her heart pounded so much.

She said she got her arm injured,

but felt like she had her heart injured.

Just call me whenever you need anything.

Did she leave or not?

She's so annoying.

Director Do.

It's me, Secretary Jeong.

Do you need anything?

Well...

Where's my note?

- What note? - You know...

the note I wrote about the directors' faces in.

You left it in the office the other day,

so I put it in the second drawer of my desk.

Okay.

Do you want me to find it?

Or I could get you some snack.

If you're tired, I can drive you home.

If you keep being like this all night,

do you think I'll feel sorry for you or something?

No.

I was...

just wondering if you would need some urgent help like now.

Are you sure you just need one day?

Pardon me?

After working as my secretary until tomorrow,

will you really leave with no regrets?

Yes. If you let me do that...

I...

still hate you.

I'm still upset about what you've done to me.

But there's no one I can recognize...

without your help.

So...
