Anything but that.

Okay. I'll be Ji Seungil's proxy from now on.

Wow! His proxy!

Hey!

- Jang Gihong. - Yes?

So why didn't you?

But my old and experienced eyes tell me

you're just mean.

What?

And you...

Are you slighting me because you're such a hotshot?

Could we join you?

Come here. Sit down.

You're the worst.

What's wrong with you? Have you lost your mind?

Don't get me started.

I can crush young boys like you.

Come on now!

How can you get so drunk in front of your elders?

Elders? I'm an elder.

Do you know how old I am?

You're 25.

25?

25?

The truth is, I'm actually 34 years old.

30 plus four.

34?

So you all treat me with respect.

Get out of the way.

Are you okay? Are you okay?

Wake up. Lee Sojin. Hey!

Episode 6

[Choi Jinuk]

What's up with him?

What's this number?

What did I get myself into?

Good morning.

- Good morning, ma'am. - Pardon?

Go on in, ma'am.

Good grief.

What did I tell them?

Unbelievable.

Who would've thought?

Here she comes.

I'm sorry.

I drank a bit too much.

Come on, newbie.

Why did you lie to us?

Pardon?

You should come clean.

Well...

Don't you remember?

What? 34?

How dare you lie about your age?

Are you saying that you and Mr. Jang are the same age?

That makes you four years older than Ms. Jeong.

You're certainly old.

I'm sorry.

I know I cannot be forgiven.

But I didn't do it on purpose.

I need to make a living, but given my age,

I had no other choice.

Are you still drunk?

But then again, you did drink until you forgot your own name.

No wonder you're still drunk.

You didn't seem like the type, but we heard you were a repeat offender.

Pardon?

Your sister told us everything.

We heard you turn into a compulsive liar when you drink.

Did you call me last night?

I didn't want to,

but mom made me.

Who picked up?

Some woman. She asked me whether you were really 34.

So? What did you say?

I told her you lie a lot when you get drunk.

Hey!

Come here.

I went a bit overboard last night, didn't I?

Was that funny to you? Huh?

Don't be mad.

I got a bit tipsy, okay?

A bit tipsy?

Don't you remember how you harassed me all night long?

All night long?

And don't you remember soiling my shirt?

Soiling your shirt?

Man, she's heavy.

Good grief.

Oh, no...

And where did you run off to?

Huh?

You don't even remember that?

You have a serious problem.

I went into the store to get some tissues.

and you were gone when I came out.

I can't believe I looked for someone like you all night long.

I'm sorry.

So it wasn't you who got me a cab?

If it wasn't you, who was it?

So you must remember getting into a cab.

Good grief.

Why are you smiling?

Is this the person who put me in a cab?

Hello?

Ms. Lee Sojin?

Oh, no.

Stop!

Thank you.

Oh, no! Oh, no! What am I going to do?

This evening? Sure, Seungil.

See you later.

- Okay. - Oh.

You don't still feel awkward around me, do you?

Well...

We work together.

It would be nice if we went back to how we were.

See you, Jinuk.

The shoulders are a bit too much.

Try toning it down a bit.

Okay.

The dress is a bit frillier than what I'd hoped for.

Let's make it look more classic.

Yes, ma'am.

[Lee Sojin]

That'll be all.

I'll look at the revised designs tomorrow morning.

Ms. Kang.

You're dismissed.

Ms. Kang.

I submitted a design, too.

True leadership is about listening to one's staffers and trusting them...

Pardon?

I'm so sorry about last night.

There's no need. It was quite a show.

But what a shame.

I have absolutely nothing to say about your sketch.

Hey! What do you want?

What's this?

Look.

What's the problem?

You're a managing director. You should know.

I know it's strange,

but tell me what exactly is the problem.

Let's see.

It reminds me of my spinster homeroom teacher from middle school.

Does it look that matronly?

I wonder what she's up to these days.

Thanks.

And...

...this is for the dry cleaning.

I wouldn't feel comfortable taking your money.

Consider yourself lucky that you have an older friend like me.

I don't bring just anybody to famous places like this.

What is it?

Why is she with Mr. Ji?

Didn't you know? They're dating.

Let's go somewhere else.

Okay.

Jinuk!

Hi.

Thanks.

So you went to the same college?

Yes. We were close then, too.

Let's eat.

What are you doing?

Hang on.

Do you want more vinegar?

I'm fine.

How about sugar?

I said I'm fine.

Eat it while it's still warm.

What's the matter with you?

Aren't you two years older than Ms. Lee?

Don't you use honorifics?

She must be feeling shy.

Since when have you two been so close?

It's been awhile.

From what I can tell, you two seem like more than friends.

Are you an office couple?

Pardon? No.

He's just being a schmuck.

I mean, Mr. Choi's pulling a prank on me.

That's not nice of you to say.

We even spent last night together.

Thanks to you, I had a very long night.

I threw out my back, because of you.

I hope there are no misunderstandings.

Why are you saying such strange things?

All you did was give me a piggyback ride.

You see, I got a bit drunk last night

and he gave me a piggyback ride.

Come on!

I swear. Nothing happened.

So you must have taken Ms. Lee home.

No, he didn't.

You didn't, did you, Mr. Choi?

Who else would have taken you home?

Who else was there?

Ms. Park? Mr. Jang?

Mr. Ji?

Yes.

I don't know what happened between you two,

but it was me who put Ms. Lee in a cab.

Really?

Yes.

I'm so sorry about last night.

Did you get in okay? You didn't pick up when I called.

You even called her?

I wanted to make sure that she got in okay.

Yesterday was one big slip-up on my part.

There won't ever be any reason for Mr. Ji to call me again.

Please rest assured, Ms. Kang.

That's enough about last night. Let's eat.

Thank you for lunch.

You should take Ms. Lee home today, Mr. Choi.

No. I'm heading back to the office.

Let's go, then.

What was that about? Have you lost your mind?

What? We spent last night together?

You threw out your back?

How can you say those things in front of Mr. Ji and Ms. Kang?

What will they

think of me?

You're nuts.

Yes, I am. I must be nuts.

What's wrong with him?

I'm the fool for faulting someone like him.

Is this still too matronly?

Young and trendy. Trendy...

What's young and trendy?

Sit.

Sit.

Sit.

I saw the light on and dropped in.

You're a good tailor,

but you won't make a good designer.

Why are you working for our company?

I want to become a designer.

Why? Why do you want to become a designer?

Well, on the day I graduated from grade school,

I wore my first-ever brand new outfit.

I felt like a star in such a pretty dress.

It felt good.

I'd like to make clothes that make people feel good.

Where is that passion now?

Pardon?

Would you want to wear something like this?

Would a 20 year-old want to wear this?

All women are the same, regardless of age.

She doesn't know her place, does she?

How does she expect to become a designer, anyway?

Watch what you say.

She needs more experience,

but she will become better than any designer we have now.

You just wait and see.

Where do the arms go?

I don't think this is it.

Why aren't you sleeping?

You have to leave for work at the crack of dawn.

I'm a newbie. Sleeping is a luxury.

Being a designer is not what you

hoped it to be, is it?

Mom.

Remember the dress you got me for my elementary school graduation?

I bought you a dress?

It was the first brand new outfit you ever bought me.

So?

What went through your head?

What did you think about as you were shopping?

Are you asking me to remember something that happened more than 20 years ago?

Good grief.

Think carefully.

It was so long ago. I don't remember.

But what's there to buying clothes? You just get what's pretty.

You and your silly questions...

Where is that passion now?

All women are the same, regardless of age.

Ms. Kang, this is my design.

Being a newbie is hard, isn't it?

Pardon?

I didn't start from the very bottom, so I only know what I've heard.

You have to clean and do fittings.

You don't need to bother with designing on top of all that.

You're dismissed.

And don't bring something like this in person again.

An organization has what's called hierarchy.

Do you understand what I'm saying?

Hello.

You're not in your office.

Where's the style book?

Yeah?

Oh. Here it is.

Okay.

Mr. Yongjun.

Yes?

I'm so thankful for the private lesson.

Thank you.

How is it?

They say it's good for male stamina.

Oh, no! Good heavens!

My goodness! What a shame!

- I'm fine. - Goodness gracious.

- What are you doing? - Come on now!

My pelvis...

Are you okay? Ma'am?

Please don't do this.

Oh! There it is.

Hang on. Please...

Goodness me!

And you call yourself an instructor?

I'll make you pay for this.

What the...

This is the denim vest I designed as the upcoming special feature piece.

The studs give the black denim vest an edgier feel.

It's just what women in their 20s want.

It's both sophisticated and affordable.

Thank you.

What do you think, Ms. Baek?

It's very pretty. If I had a daughter in college,

I'd want her to wear it.

Mr. Choi?

Yes?

As the managing director, what do you think of the vest?

It will do well in terms of sales.

Last season, we sold over 10,000 pieces each of the denim jacket and the vest.

So this season...

Do you base your judgment solely on last season's sales?

Denim is a wardrobe staple, so...

Is memorizing last season's sales performance

all that a managing director does?

Don't you know repetition is regression?

I'm sorry.

Let's move on.

That was the last of our candidate pieces.

There's one more.

Hello?

Pardon?

Mr. Ji, I dropped that design.

May I ask why?

It's not something a woman in her early 20s would wear.

This was designed by you, right?

Yes.

We'll have the designer herself explain.

There's not much to say.

I just wanted to create a piece that would make women feel good

and give them confidence.

It's for all women, regardless of age.

Regardless of age?

Are you saying that you didn't have a target age group in mind?

No wonder it looks so matronly.

Women in their early 20s wouldn't buy this.

I beg to differ, Ms. Hyeon.

Young women do not obsess over how young they look.

That's what older women do.

I have a question for the designer.

It's true that the jacket feels a bit heavy as Ms. Hyeon pointed out.

How will you make up for that shortcoming?

Well...

I have a question, too.

What about the cost?

A jacket like this needs to be made of wool.

It doesn't seem appropriate for a special feature piece.

Since Mr. Ji and Ms. Baek like it so much,

let's make a sample.

- Once you see the sample... - Um...

This is the sample of my design.

Wool seemed too heavy, so I used a different fabric.

What is it? Polyester?

It's a cotton-polyester blend.

All you did was change the fabric, but the jacket looks light and casual.

It looks great even with jeans.

So you didn't use wool, which is typical for a jacket.

but used a cotton-polyester blend

to cut costs and give the piece a casual feel, right?

Yes.

Lee Sojin!

Yeah?

You must be happy.

Yeah, I suppose.

Good grief. You're ecstatic.

Consider yourself lucky.

I wasn't ever going to talk to you again over that last fiasco.

But since I'm in a good mood,

I'll be gracious.

Plus, you gave me advice on my sketch.

So what happened?

Why did Mr. Ji have your sketch?

Beats me. I have no idea.

All I saw was Ms. Kang throwing it out.

So you didn't take the sketch to Mr. Ji?

What? How would I even dare?

No way.

A CEO is human, just like the rest of us.

You know what? Although Mr. Ji looks cold,

there's a warm side to him.

That must be why they say someone who makes a bad first impression...

- Actually turns out to be friendlier. - Friendlier?

Good grief.

If you like him so much, go out with him, then.

Yeah. Make him your boyfriend, okay?

- What? - Don't you like him?

Oh. You won't be satisfied unless you marry him?

What did you say? What a weirdo.

Ms. Kang.

I'm sorry.

About what?

What do you have to be sorry to me about?

Lee Sojin? Isn't she the temp behind that web posting?

She's still at our company?

Your problem is that you're too soft-hearted.

Why did you keep her around? I told you to fire her.

It's not that.

And Ms. Baek is defending someone like her?

How dare a seamstress have a say in our designs?

I was holding back, given her close ties to Mr. Ji's family,

but I've had enough.

She's been around for way too long.

The ruffles here need to be accentuated.

Something's fishy.

She may have conveniently dropped it for Mr. Ji to see.

For someone so young, she's so cutthroat.

I got a message.

Oh?

[Mr. Jeong Huijin's mother has passed away. Funeral Hall, Seoul Hospital]

[May 17 - The Style Public Relations Office]

This blows.

Sunday's our only day off.

What terrible timing.

I'm having lunch with my friend's younger sister.

She's the prettiest one.

I'll need to readjust the time.

I feel bad for the deceased.

but why was her timing so off? It's our only day off.

You all got the message, right?

As you know, Mr. Jeong's mother passed away this morning.

We'll meet tomorrow at 2:00 p.m. in front of the funeral hall.

And as you well know,

there will be some industry insiders there.

Please be mindful of how you dress.

You heard her.

Make sure you dress well. Everyone and anyone will be there.

We can't lose to design team two or three.

You should wear the black Louvain suit, Ms. Jeong.

Okay.

Mingi, you should go with Valmont,

and you should be all about chic.

I don't have to worry about you.

Mr. Jang.

I brought the swatches you asked for.

You're my biggest worry.

I'll be off.

All right.

"Coloring the World with Fashion."

Hot off the press.

Read it carefully because he may ask questions.

Wait. Actually, write a report on it.

It's due Monday.

Aren't you taking the book?

What? A fashion CEO in the age of globalization?

Hello?

Why did you leave without me? I have to go, too.

My hand's busted. I need your help.

I told you I had a prior engagement.

Do you expect me to cancel my lunch and be your butler?

Oh, right. Can you bring me a pair of black socks?

I brought my suit with me, but I forgot to bring socks.

Socks?

Forget about it. You can get a paid at a convenience store,

or just wear white socks for all I care.

- Bye. - Hey!

It's a mini when I wear it.

Blame mom and dad, not me.

You're something else.

But what can I say? I'm borrowing your dress.

[Jang Gihong]

Hello?

How can he make me go to his place to pick up his socks?

What are you doing here?

Mr. Jang asked me to bring him his socks.

What's the matter with your hand?

Gihong sent you?

Come here for a second.

Help me.

I've been having such a hard time.

Are you serious?

I can't get my hand wet.

Geez. Give it here.

Ow, it's hot.

Where are you going with that hand anyway?

To the funeral, okay?

Don't be mistaken.

I'm not going to the funeral

to kiss up to Mr. Ji.

The only reason why I'm going is that my relationship with...

It's scalding hot! Ow...

sorry.

Are you planning to boil my head?

Is it okay now?

Now it's too cold.

Fine. What a pain.

Why can't you even set the water right?

- You're awful at this. - Sit down here, will you?

Can you see? Sit.

I don't believe I'm doing this.

You threw up on my face.

Fine. All right.

Ow! Ow! Just because it's not your head...

Why are you so rough?

There's nothing feminine about you.

When you get married and have a son of your own,

you won't be able to...

How is it?

You're being pampered.

I wouldn't do this for anyone else.

It's too cold.

Is it dry yet?

I knew trouble was brewing when I stepped into the bathroom.

You were in there. What more need I say.

Do you use your left hand when you eat?

Or are you just eating sandwiches?

I'm taking off.

Hey.

Be a pal.

You want me to help you with that, too?

Come on.

Darn it.

Hey, wait up.

- Aah... - Here.

Want some?

Hang on.

You should wrap the chain around twice

and hold it like a clutch.

Try it.

Ms. Jeong, your purse is too dull.

My purse?

Yup. Let me...

...tie this around the handle.

See? It's so much better.

Now it looks very Hollywood.

Wasn't that in style a few years ago?

Excuse me? Are you saying that I'm behind on the latest trends?

Well, I... So who passed away again?

Was it Mr. Jeong's father or mother?

His mother.

He's so clueless.

Oh?

What is it?

Why are you coming in together?

- Huh? - Oh...

I...

Mr. Jeong...

- Sent me on an errand. - Right.

I have to go.

Look at this.

You should've borrowed the dress from someone your size.

But, sir, I'll get some food first.

Zip it and just sit down.

I have to eat, so stay right here.

And your hand, keep it under the table.

Are you planning to become a boxer? What's the matter with you?

Hey!

I know you.

20 year-old young lady!

Hi! I can come to you for help if I have questions, right?

We've met, right?

Don't you remember me? My name is Hyemi.

I think you're mistaking me for someone else.

Right! The karaoke.

You were my predecessor.

I'm not sure. I have to go.

I swear.

I have a photographic memory.

It's so nice to see you here.

Hang on.

Sir. Here!

Oh?

Ms. Lee Soyeong?

Hello.

What brings you here?

How have you been?

I'm sure it wasn't easy.

It's been okay.

I felt terrible after letting you go like that.

I shouldn't have been so harsh.

Hey, newbie. Where's the pressed pork?

Coming!

You're a newbie?

So you got a job?

From the looks of it, she looks like a designer.

Wait a minute. Isn't she the famous designer Kang Yunseo?

She's even more beautiful in person.

Did you come with her?

Wait. So are you a junior designer there?

I, um... Uh...

At your age?

I'm proud of you. Good for you.

- Hyemi. - Oh.

I have to run, too.

Hold on. Let me come and tell your team how great you are.

You never missed a day of work

in the more than 14 years you worked for us.

I also need to tell them you were chosen as the model employee twice.

- I'll talk to them... - Sir!

There's no need.

I'll drop by the office some other time. So long.

Wait, Ms. Lee.

Couldn't you introduce me to the head of your team?

Pardon?

It's hard for me to tell you this,

but I really need a new client.

We'd like to be the textile supplier for your company.

There's so much pressure on me to raise sales figures.

She's the head of your team, right?

No, no!

What's wrong?

She lived in the States for a long time,

so her Korean's not very good.

And you can't speak English.

But still, couldn't you put in a good word for me?

I really have to get going. Let's talk later.

This soup is good. I'm impressed.

Didn't you know? You can get the best spicy soup at funeral halls.

- I'm sorry it took so long. - Yup.

Who's that guy?

Why does he keep staring at me?

That's because you're so pretty.

Did he say I was pretty? That old man?

Why is it that it's always old, ugly guys who like me?

He's looking at me with such yearning.

Do you know him?

Pardon? No, no.

- We're out of pancakes. - Yes, sir.

What did the head of your team say?

Well...

It's not possible?

I don't think so.

Don't worry about anything else.

Just introduce me to her.

Never.

Ms. Lee.

The head of our team...

Yeah? What about her?

She is repulsed by bald men.

If the head of your team is repulsed by bald men,

why's she giving me such bad looks.

Well...

Just look at her.

What a strange woman.

I'll see you later.

Ms. Lee used to work at our textile firm.

Here she comes.

- Ms. Lee Sojin. - Yes?

Why didn't you tell me you used to work at a textile firm?

I, um...

Ms. Lee was a hard worker.

She was never late, never left early, and never missed a day of work.

When things were busy, she gave up her vacation days.

I've known her for a very long time.

She was with us for a whopping...

What's the matter with you?

There was a fly on your back.

Good grief!

So where was I?

Oh, right. Ms. Lee was so diligent.

Over the four... Ow!

What's wrong with you?

Enough about me, sir.

Why?

Why are you ashamed that you were a model employee?

My goodness.

In any case, thank you for the information.

Should I have any inquiries, I'll call you.

or ask Ms. Lee Sojin to contact you.

Ms. Lee Sojin?

Okay. Thank you. I look forward to hearing from you.

- Ms. Lee. - Yes?

What kind of a person are you?

How can you lie so easily?

What exactly did you tell him about me?

Did you tell him I couldn't speak Korean?

No, I...

He kept insisting on supplying us with fabric.

He was begging me to introduce him to you.

I didn't want to put you in an awkward position.

Whether or not I buy fabric and whether or not I speak with him

are up to me.

Why did you make me into a weirdo?

I'm sorry.

This is Lee Sojin.

May I speak to the lady who called my dad a super-serious man?

- Are you... - Hey, it's you!

Is your name Lee Sojin?

Why are you calling?

How have you been?

Good. And you?

Aren't you going to ask me how Jessica is?

- How's Jessica? - She's fine.

Well, she seems a bit bored these days.

She wants to go to Kids World.

Ask your dad.

He's busy.

Why are you so immature? You're old enough.

Powdered donuts.

I'm busy. Let's talk later. Bye!

Who was that?

Who is our dear Hyeon's close friend?

Ms. Lee Sojin.

What? Who?

She's a designer at dad's company.

What? Lee Sojin?

The Lee Sojin I saw at the singing class?

How do you know her?

I saw her at dad's work.

That woman is digging for gold left and right.

I'm planning to make her Jessica's servant.

What?

Ms. Lee gave this to Jessica.

That cunning witch...

What is she scheming against our family?

Where is Seungil anyway?

Why won't he pick up?

- Let's have a meeting, Ms. Jeong. - All right.

- My desk too, Ms. Lee. - Sure.

Is that you, Soyeong.

It's you, Soyeong, isn't it?

What are you doing here?

I, uh...

Are you...

Let me explain.

Are you working here as a janitor, too?

Huh?

Yeah. I'm a janitor.

You don't need to be ashamed.

It's so good to see someone work so hard.

It's so much better

than seducing men for money.

What are you talking about?

It's a nasty world out there.

Being young and pretty shouldn't give you a free pass.

And designer goods?

And she got them all on some fool's credit card.

All she thinks about is getting designer purses.

Designer purses? I have a lot to say about that.

You hit the nail on the head for once.

And if you want a purse,

why not save up your hard-earned pay?

Just thinking about Lee Sojin makes my blood boil.

That's right.

So you must know Lee Sojin, too.

Huh?

She works for the design team here.

It turns out she's a real gold digger.

What? A gold digger?

That whole scandal came to a close a long time ago.

It's all over.

Hey, do you know that my brother's the CEO here?

What? Ji Seungil is your brother?

I have a feeling that Lee Sojin is after my brother.

What? No way. I really doubt it.

You're wrong, Juihui.

She got to my niece already.

No. No way.

I know all the designers here.

Lee Sojin's a very hard-working woman.

You're too naive.

In any case, I'm going to talk to the head of the team.

to prevent additional casualties.

You see, I know the head of that team very well.

See you later.

Juhui...

What are you doing? Lee Sojin must be given the boot.

Juhui. No, Juhui.

What's the matter with you?

Please don't tell the head of the team.

Soyeong.

I'll keep a close eye on her.

What? Why you?

Well, I ruined your jacket last time

and you let me off the hook,

so I want to help you.

Really?

Thank you so much, Soyeong.

You're a good friend.

It's not a big deal.

Run along. I have to go and clean the pattern room.

Okay. See you.

Go on.

You can do this, Soyeong. Stay strong.

- I will. - Take care.

Bye.

- Thanks. - See you.

Go on. I'm sure you're busy.

No, no, no.

How did such a misunderstanding come about?

Did Sojin get into trouble again?

It doesn't seem like it, though.

What a headache.

Hi, Juhui.

What brings you here out of the blue?

Come here for a second.

Where is she? She said she'd be cleaning the pattern room.

Who are you looking for?

Oh! That's Soyeong. Come.

Soyeong...

It's not her.

Who are you looking for?

You have a janitor who cleans your office, right?

Her name's Lee Soyeong.
