Original subtitles

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...

tomorrow,

put this on...

and come to work.

Thank you.

Thank you, sir.

Secretary for one day.

Director Do is currently suffering from a severe illness.

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

Where is my name?

(Gi Dae Ju)

There it is.

"May 2004"?

That's the year my mother passed away.

"Aromi".

"Pennsylvania".

"46,000 dollars"?

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

It's you, isn't it?

So you saw it.

Why did you do this?

I said, why did you do this?

Do you know who made your mom die?

What brings you here?

Hey, I'm going to work.

Gal Hee, it seems like we have a guest.

But she's not saying anything.

Why don't you show our guest room...

to our VIP guest?

So she's crashing at our place?

I'm not sure who you are, but you're welcome to use this room.

My sister is in Pennsylvania now, so the room is empty.

You know,

there's a very famous school called the University of Pennsylvania.

And my sister studies there.

You heard him.

Our sister is in Pennsylvania,

so you can use that room.

See you.

By the way, how do you know Gal Hee?

Are you her friend from school?

Given that she let you crash here, you two must be close like family.

How have you been doing?

You don't look well.

I deserve to be sick, but you don't.

Good morning, sir.

I prepared blueberry yogurt and flat white for your breakfast...

I already had breakfast.

Today's stock price of TnT Mobile is...

I checked that already.

You got...

the cast removed.

Yes.

I'm totally well today,

so ask me anything you want.

I would like to check out the meeting room.

Okay, sir. I will check on that.

Your mother is here. I'll be outside.

Is she still sticking around here?

What brings you all the way to the office?

Today is a big day.

What matters is the board meeting.

The stockholders' meeting is just for show.

This is technically the president election.

You messed up by letting a girl go,

but I'm sure you can nail it at the board meeting.

I want to eat something, Mom.

After the surgery I had when I was seven,

you made me samgyetang.

The board meeting is definitely going to be successful.

So please make me...

samgyetang as a present.

He's so gorgeous.

What are you doing, Jeong Gal Hee?

You promised you will not see him as a man.

You're just a temporary secretary who will work for just today.

Get it together and focus on work.

If something happens to him today,

it's going to mess up everything.

Hey!

- Jeong Gal Hee. - Jeong Gal Hee.

Nice to see you again, Gal Hee.

I'm so glad to see you and...

it almost feels like having chicken after recovering from enteritis.

Today, after the board meeting, let's go eat jokbal together.

We have so many things we want to ask you.

- Ask you. - Ask you.

Sure. I guess I could use...

some drinks tonight.

Right. Have you heard the news?

Director Gi submitted his resignation.

Really? Why?

It didn't seem to have been accepted though.

I overheard my boss talking to President Sim yesterday.

He said something about referring it to the disciplinary committee.

Goodness.

Why did you ask us to dress up like this?

This doesn't make us look alike. We look so different.

The truth is...

You know what?

Watching the preview spoils the movie.

The movie is about to start anyway.

Why don't you watch it with your own eyes?

Let's go.

I marked on all the pages of the directors that are coming today.

So you should probably double check on that.

What do you think?

About what, sir?

Do you think...

I'm qualified to be the president of this company?

Of course. I think you're more qualified than anyone else.

But I can't even recognize people's faces,

and memorize all these things.

I will have to lead the company...

with this disability.

When my brother started to become blind,

my mom said this.

"Jung Hee, why are you crying?"

Mom.

Am I a disabled person?

When I was hanging out with my friends,

some lady came to us...

and told the kids that they shouldn't hang out with me.

She said I'm a disabled person.

She's right, Jung Hee. You're a disabled person.

But...

we are all disabled.

During my entire life,

I've never met...

a perfectly normal person.

In my opinion, the woman that told the kids to not play with you...

isn't perfect either.

So from now on,

whenever someone makes fun of you,

you should be the one embracing their flaws.

Because they're pitiful people...

who aren't even aware of their flaws.

So if anyone says you don't deserve...

to be the president because of your illness,

that person will only be proving that he or she is unworthy.

After all, no one's perfect in this world.

You worked hard.

Director Yang. Director Choi. Long time no see.

I should get going now.

I'll be waiting outside until it's over,

so if you need my help, just send me a signal.

A signal? What kind of signal?

Well, let's see. How about this?

Oh, gosh. I'm sorry.

Or maybe something like this.

Is this too big?

It's okay. I won't need your help.

Well, if it's anything urgent,

just wink at me.

Wink?

Even if I send you a signal,

how would you even know what's going on?

Plus, it's just a wink. It's not a text or a phone call.

I'll know.

If anything happens to you,

I'm able to figure it out whatever it may be.

So don't hesitate and just send me a signal.

Then the tuition you told me that was from the chairman...

That money was from selling the fish?

Why didn't you tell me?

You should've told me!

When your mom passed away,

I promised her one thing.

I promised her that I'll do everything I can to protect you.

Your mom may have been treated...

way poorly than a fish at work, but I promised...

that I'll make you become the owner of this company.

But you handed in a resignation letter without even telling me?

President Park?

Who do you think you are...

to wake me up from my spring dream?

Awesome.

Dae Ju, it's you.

I feel as if I'm Choonhyang right now.

I can't believe...

you came to see me in broad daylight.

I told you that I resigned.

Are you okay with dating a jobless boyfriend?

It's time to make use of your rich girlfriend.

You can constantly take my money, but I'll still be rich.

How is it that you never try to take even a cent of my money?

I'm actually going through something right now.

But I knew I'd be able to smile if I saw you.

Wait.

If you're jobless, that means you have no money,

but you have all the time in the world.

Over there.

There's an empty house built for filming purposes...

over there in that secluded area with no one around.

Would you like to go there with me for a while?

I think I'll be able...

to make you very happy there.

I actually wanted to go somewhere quiet to talk to you.

I love having a jobless boyfriend. Let's go.

Where's Director Lee and Director Park?

The board meeting is going to start soon.

I'd like to show you an interesting show before the meeting begins.

(Conference Room)

Okay, everyone. Come over here.

Please stand in two lines.

Stand here in 2 lines, and go inside in 1 line.

Keep a straight face, and stand up straight.

Be quiet. Keep a straight face.

Come inside.

Okay, everyone. Stand in one line.

What was that?

No way.

Director Do, let me ask you a question.

Out of all these people, can you tell me...

who Director Park is?

[VIU Ver] SBS E27 'The Secret Life of My Private Secretary' "One Last Day" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

He winked.

Okay, I got it.

Gosh, it's code blue. What should I do?

Gal Hee, let's think.

The fact that Director Park and Director Lee...

went inside with a bunch of guys wearing the exact same suit...

means someone found out about Director Do's illness.

What if Director Do fails to recognize them?

No, he memorized and practiced so many times.

I'm sure he'll recognize them.

But even so,

a few directors might still turn their backs on him. My gosh.

What can I do to help Director Do?

Have you heard the news?

Director Gi submitted his resignation.

It didn't seem to have been accepted though.

I overheard my boss talking to President Sim yesterday.

He said something about referring it to the disciplinary committee.

President Park.

I said I wanted to discuss something with you.

I didn't say I was going to take my shirt off.

You can go ahead and talk. I'm listening.

(Secretary Jeong)

Jeong Gal Hee, you little brat.

I'm going to sue you for obstruction of business!

Yes, Secretary Jeong.

What?

I think President Sim didn't file your resignation yet...

because he's planning to make you get disciplined.

I'm really sorry for asking you this in this situation.

But can you please come and help Director Do?

Please, Director Gi.

If you don't come to vote,

I don't think...

Director Do will win the election.

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

So I didn't want to tell you this.

I...

can't see your face.

Do you know who made your mom die?

What's wrong?

I'm a little hesitant.

What?

I feel like I've done more than enough.

What more do I need to do?

Mr. Chastity.

Hesitating in this kind of situation...

is the same thing as serving an appetizer with no steak.

It's like making someone eat pickled radishes...

without any jajangmyeon.

2, 3, 4, 5.

There are so many buttons I still need to unbutton.

But what do you mean you've done enough?

No, that's not what I meant.

Do you think I don't know what it means...

when someone says "I've done enough"?

What do you mean?

It means they did everything they could to the best of their ability.

No.

It's just a nicer way to say...

that you don't want to try anymore.

If you tried your best for someone,

you wouldn't say that you've done enough.

You would say that you'll do everything you can.

Then...

shall we start doing...

everything we can again?

I should get going.

What?

You're right about that.

The fact that I don't want to do it can't be an excuse.

And Min Ik really needs me right now.

Were you talking about Do Min Ik?

I'm sorry. I'll give you a call.

Why did I had to say the right things at the right time?

Secretary Jeong.

Even if I hurry, it will take some time.

- Hop on. - What?

It'll take you more than 30 minutes to walk to your car from here.

Just get on.

Promise me one thing though.

Next time we meet, we will hang out like adults.

I'll do everything I can.

Great.

Among the people in here,

which one is Director Park?

Why? You don't know?

You've worked hard.

- This notebook is new. - Right.

I will keep a record of people's faces from now on.

A record?

If I keep a record of people I meet every day like a diary,

I guess...

it will help me understand and recognize them better.

Actually, it's been a few days.

Who did you meet today?

The first person I met today...

was you, Jeong Gal Hee.

See?

Today Secretary Jeong is wearing a red cardigan...

with some cute flyaway hair...

that she always has.

Next is Director Park and Director Oh.

I realized something keeping this record.

Director Oh rubs his nose like this...

when he feels awkward.

And Director Park adjusts...

his glasses like this.

You're right. He does that.

This is strange. Why can't you point out Director Park?

All I have to do, is tell you that?

The fourth from the left.

He's Director Park.

And...

the one on the far right is Director Lee.

Do you need more?

The one sitting at the far right of this table is Director Choi.

Next, there's Director Woo.

I heard you were on a diet. I guess you've lost some weight.

And there are Director Yang, Director Kwak, and Director Kim.

And the one sitting next to me...

is Chief Director Sim Hae Ra.

President Sim, what was this show about?

You really don't have any problems?

Look.

This is from Sangmo Hospital's Neurosurgery last month.

Why did you see the doctor?

I clearly heard...

that you're suffering from serious prosopagnosia.

What are you talking about?

That's not true, is it?

President Sim must've been mistaken.

Director Do?

I think you're more qualified than anyone.

After all, no one's perfect in this world.

President Sim...

is right.

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

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

"cannot be elected as president."

You all know it, right?

I'm sorry that I didn't tell you sooner.

Those who believe my illness is a reason for disqualification...

according to the articles of incorporation...

may vote for Candidate Sim Hae Yong.

Min Ik!

But I don't agree...

on taking my illness as a reason...

for disqualification.

I've memorized and studied hard.

And now I can recognize who you all are.

This illness actually helped me...

to develop the qualifications of a president.

If I could read your facial expressions,

I might have tried to cover it up with a lie.

But I can't...

even study your face.

So all I can do is tell the truth.

I'm almost done. Look.

There are 23 employees who are between 160 and 170.

It means General Manager Park...

If I were...

still called as the mind-reader,

I wouldn't have paid attention to every employee.

If I could still do everything on my own,

I wouldn't have listened carefully to others.

The one who tells the truth,

pays attention to his employees,

and listens carefully to others around him...

deserves to be the president, I believe.

Today, someone...

told me this.

That everyone has their own disabilities.

I can't say I'm a perfect human being now.

But if you allow me,

I will consult with and count on the directors for what I lack...

to perform my duties as the president.

It's almost over now.

Is he even coming?

All right then. Let's take a show of hands now.

I'll abstain from voting.

Director Choi.

Director Do just lost one vote.

Anyone who gets more than five votes will be the president-elect.

President Sim, would you like to go first then?

That's five.

- Secretary Jeong. - Please hurry.

Why am I being Jeong Gal Hee's minion?

I think it's over. Shall we go to a rice soup restaurant near here?

That's Director Do's least favorite place.

We should still take a show of hands for the other candidate.

That's the rule.

Those who want Director Do to be the president-elect,

please raise your hand.

Director Gi.

It's not over, is it?

Director Gi. I thought you handed in your resignation.

I did. But...

President Sim didn't accept it yet...

to refer me to the disciplinary committee.

That makes me to still be the director just yet.

Then, we have 10 directors including Director Gi.

If Do Min Ik gets five votes, it's a tie with Sim Hae Yong.

Then there will be a revote at the board meeting two weeks later.

Am I right?

Director Gi Dae Ju?

As the president-elect of TnT Mobile, I think Director Do...

is qualified.

Why do you always...

have to shame me like that?

You always make me feel like I owe you.

Min Ik.

On the way here,

I made a resolution.

No matter what,

I will not hate you.

Later if you ever feel like you hate me,

please cut me some slack just once.

What are you talking about?

I'm fine.

You should thank Secretary Jeong, not me.

If it weren't for Secretary Jeong,

I wouldn't have even known this was happening to you.

You did a good job today, sir.

Well, I guess.

It would have been nicer if it worked out at one go,

but you have one more chance now.

Next time, let's focus on convincing Director Choi, who abstained...

I'm probably talking too much.

This is your schedule for this month.

And this is the handover document.

One of the moss balls was ill, so I separated it.

It can happen when it's hot,

so put some ice in the water for the next few days.

And please pat it once in a while when you have some free time.

It helps it to recover faster.

I should get going now.

I'm sorry I betrayed your trust and hurt you.

Thank you for hiring me as your secretary even for just one day.

Hey.

Yes, sir.

Thank you for today.

You're welcome.

You did a great job too.

(Episode 28 will air shortly.)

(The Best Jokbal, Darn My Foot)

Okay. Pour me some drink.

I think I can't stay sober tonight.

Of course. I will pour you some.

All right. It's time for a pop quiz.

A quiz? All of a sudden?

The first question is for Gal Hee.

What's the color of your boss' socks today?

Gray.

Then what time did your boss come to work today?

8:37am.

Did you see a strange file in his office...

or see him contacting the audit department?

Audit department?

I didn't hear anything about it.

- Ms. Lee. - Ms. Lee.

- Hello. - Hello.

Gal Hee says she didn't see Director Do...

contacting the audit department or anything else.

How did the board meeting go today?

Director Do and President Sim are tied,

so there will be a revote in two weeks.

What? President Sim didn't win?

Why? Did you want President Sim...

to win?

No, that's not what I meant.

The moon is bright.

So...

This crazy man has come to a conclusion.

It's you, Jeong Gal Hee.

I wonder if the crazy man...

is looking at it too.

And please pat it once in a while when you have some free time.

It helps it to recover faster.

Will this really...

help it recover?

Here you go.

Get better.

Get better.

Seeing that it stinks...

it must be a bribe.

It's a present.

Thank you for everything.

My sister caught me acting,

so I think I'll have to start studying again.

- Let's go. - Where?

I'd like to meet your sister who seems to think...

acting is inferior...

to studying.

Gal Hee? It's you again?

President Park, why are you here with my younger sister?

I'm kind of indebted to her.

You really are a nuisance.

Do you think...

she's the only nuisance in my life?

I don't get...

why I have to bribe you...

and be so caught up in taking care of you sisters.

I'm sorry, President Park.

How did things go with your boss?

I want you to let Nam Hee act again.

No.

I'm going to make her succeed by studying hard.

What did your father do?

He worked at a construction site.

What about your mother?

She delivered food at Dongdaemun.

That's strange.

How did they manage to give birth to girls like you?

- What about us? - What about us?

You sisters are really great at acting.

Gal Hee, do you think it's easy to fool your boss...

for months like you?

What? Is someone here?

He's our brother.

Nice to meet you. I'm Veronica Park.

Nice to meet you. I'm Jeong Jung Hee.

The show's at 11pm tonight.

Please come to the show with Gal Hee.

Thank you for inviting me.

But as you can see, I'm blind.

That's exactly why you should come.

You'll be able to hear how clearly Nam Hee delivers...

her lines than anyone.

Thank you for hiring me as your secretary even for just one day.

Where's your room?

This is my room.

And your living room?

This is also my living room.

What about your kitchen?

It's here.

This is how big my second-floor bathroom is.

We don't necessarily need...

that much space to do what adults do.

Gosh, you're right.

Come to think of it, the more cramped, the better.

Did I tell you this?

Today, I ate ginseng, wild ginseng,

and red ginseng all at once.

Brace yourself.

I'm going to be merciless today.

All I want is to unbutton your second button.

Is that too much to ask for?

Who is it this time?

Hey, Min Ik.

Where are you?

If you're free, how about we grab lunch together?

Why all of a sudden?

Where's Secretary Jeong? Did she go somewhere?

What?

Oh, right.

Well...

I don't know where she is.

Hungry Theater, Street 36, Daehak-ro.

Who is this?

Nice to meet you. I'm the original Veronica Park.

Gal Hee's going to be there starting from 11am today.

So stop bothering my boyfriend and go have lunch with Gal Hee.

Hello? Hello?

What was that?

Come to think of it,

I sent her home on an empty stomach yesterday after work.

The least I should do is to treat her to a meal...

before I say goodbye to her.

Hello, can I make a lunch reservation?

Yes, what kind of champagnes do you have?

Gi Dae Ju's name is the only real name on the list.

Busted.

But all the others are encrypted,

so it's not easy to find out who they are.

The most recent expenditure was...

the Drivers' Waiting Room, so I asked them to search the place.

Don't tell Director Do about what you found for the time being.

And call me as soon as you find anything new.

Yes, sir.

I handed in my resignation letter like I promised.

What?

"Request replica for Wang Choong Choong's painting"?

You even stole and sold my painting?

Paying for Mr. Eun's hospital bills was more important...

than that painting of yours.

Plus, that painting was a bribe you received from Taeman Company...

in return for having signed a business deal with them.

This is exactly why we need to renew...

calendars and secretaries every year.

Goodbye

Forget about me

Goodness, gracious.

I spent the money on making the Drivers' Waiting Room,

paying for industrial accidents, bonuses, and overtime payments.

The money was used for the welfare of our dispatched workers.

I never laid hands on the company's money other than black money.

You want me to save you even after what you did?

If this is about money,

I'll give you every single penny I have to compensate for it.

If that's not enough, you can go ahead and sue me.

Why would I sue you?

I should thank you.

I actually needed something to put on a show.

And...

you happened to have given me something very amazing.

You promised, President Sim.

I didn't become the president, so the promise is no longer valid.

I need to punish these thieves...

to make at least a few directors come back to me.

If you do anything to harm the dispatched workers,

I won't stand still.

You're scary.

Okay, then. Let's see who wins.

Good luck.

Just to be sure, you should prepare...

the medical certificate and employment contract.

And give me the number of all the drivers...

who got unfairly dismissed by President Sim.

Okay.

Don't worry too much.

You know...

that the ledger doesn't only contain what we spent.

It also contains all the dirty money that they received.

If President Sim causes trouble,

I'll reveal all the dirty money the directors received...

and all the bribes they gave to politicians so far.

I'm sorry...

how things ended up turning out this way.

What are you talking about?

I'm the one...

who's responsible.

Let me know if you need anything else.

I need to meet someone...

before things get any worse.

[VIU Ver] SBS E28 'The Secret Life of My Private Secretary' "I Love You, Gal Hee" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

Why are you wearing a suit in this heat?

We already don't have a mother.

I don't want people to make fun of her because she has a blind brother.

Gal Hee, you're also putting makeup on, right?

I'm really not in the mood to doll myself up,

but I'm doing my best.

Just make sure you hear how well Nam Hee speaks her lines.

What's this?

I told you to wear something nice. Why are you wearing this?

You're right.

I don't need to wear this anymore.

Why did I put this on?

Hurry up.

Come on.

What's wrong?

I totally forgot.

What?

Jeong Gal Hee went to the theater with her brother,

but Do Min Ik can't recognize faces.

Right. What about that?

Nothing.

If you make a mistake and get all tangled up, just tango on.

Something good might happen.

Secretary Jeong.

What?

Who is he?

It begins now.

- This is exciting. - It's so nice.

- I like it even if it's spoiled. - Even the spoiled ones are good.

If you'll throw it out...

It's fun, isn't it?

- They are good. - Who is he?

The beggars who came last year...

The beggars are dancing around.

Nam Hee isn't up yet?

What are they whispering about?

He even holds her hand?

Gal Hee, I'm so nervous.

Don't be nervous. It's okay.

- Gosh, why are you... - Get me some of it.

- You always eat it alone. - I'm sorry, but this is good.

Jung Hee, Nam Hee's out.

Darn it!

She's cute.

Jung Hee, let's get out now.

I feel bad for others because we have to keep whispering.

Let's go.

Let go of her!

Bend down.

Come on.

We're supposed to share everything. And eat together.

- Come on and get over here. - I don't want to!

Where are they going?

She always wore loafers when she was with me.

But she's wearing heels now.

She even put on a flowered dress to look pretty.

Why are they walking arm-in-arm when it's so hot?

We should buy some flowers.

That's a good idea.

I'll take the cheapest one here.

Here's your bouquet.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

He even bought flowers?

Am I the only one who's hot?

Can we get some ice cream?

Let's wait for Nam Hee while eating some ice cream.

Ice cream?

She could just get him some tissue. Why is she wiping it with her hand?

Why is it so hot today?

You're sweating a lot.

Raise your arm.

Where is she touching now?

- Do you like it? - Do you like it?

Jinx, I said it first.

Hello?

This is the restaurant.

I'm calling as you're late for your reservation.

Well... The thing is...

Where did they go?

How could she do things she's done for me to someone else so easily?

He's shorter than me, and his face...

Does his face look better than mine?

Is your date not coming?

Why? You don't think she will?

No, I didn't mean it that way.

She's coming.

I'll make sure...

to make her come back to me.

It's Director Do.

Why is he calling you when you're out?

Why is he calling? What's the matter?

Jung Hee, I'm so nervous.

Isn't it obvious? If he asks you to come to work,

just say no.

Hello, Director Do.

Where are you now?

I'm out for something. Why?

I'll send you the address of a restaurant now.

Come over here.

- Now? - Why? You can't?

Tell him you can't come.

You can't?

Well...

I don't think I can go there right away.

Come.

Pardon?

I won't budge until you come here.

Come over here...

right away.

Gal Hee. Jung Hee.

Nam Hee. I enjoyed it. Take good care of him.

- Gal Hee! - Gal Hee!

Director Do.

Why did you want to see me?

Well... It's...

I...

Actually...

After firing you like that,

I thought I wouldn't be able to get over you by staying here.

So I thought about all sorts of weird things...

like going to Cuba and learning salsa.

When you left after working one extra day,

I regretted...

not stopping you.

I was too heart-broken by your absence...

and couldn't rejoice at how the board meeting went well.

That's why I couldn't even go to my office.

But was it easy...

for you...

to get over me?

When I asked you to put that cardigan again,

I was saying that I wanted to see you that much.

And when I fired you...

I was saying...

how much I loved you.

What...

did you just say?

Did you say...

that you love me?

Say that again.

Is it love?

I love you.

You don't need to feel anxious at all anymore.

It's all over.

(The Secret Life of My Secretary)

I would like to introduce myself again.

My name is Jeong Gal Hee.

I'm working for a great boss, who accepts me warts and all.

I'm Do Min Ik.

I'm a man crazily in love with you.

This must have been the only option...

the secretaries had.

I'm trying to make a plan...

and I need your help.
