What are you doing over there?

I'm sorry.

The lights were on so I came to turn them off. Since you hate a high electricity bill.

Of course, you're earning the money you pay the bills with, so it's okay for this room, right?

To leave them on the whole night?

Do you want coffee?

Never mind, it's too late for that, right?

No, I don't mind.

Where did you come from?

I met the CEO of Park Jin Su Management.

I gave him the synopsis to your drama. He seemed to like it.

Aren't you tired?

From what?

You take care of all our problems. You give others happiness.

But what about yourself?

I'm used to being alone. I'm used to solving problems.

But you're not used to communicating.

When you go up a tall building, you take the elevator.

As I went up floor by floor, there are many people who got off.

Sometimes, I pushed them off too.

When I reached the top, I was the only one left.

People are alone, by the end of it.

They are, but they can't live alone.

People are lonelier the deeper they love. I don't want that.

I agree.

We haven't agreed on something in a long time. Is it still a happy ending?

I'm not sure.

But at least we've gotten closer to a sad ending.

That's right.

♫ The day I thought we were destined ♫

♫ Was actually the end, as if it was laughing at me ♫

♫ In between the cut off film ♫

♫ the period mark was deeply set ♫

♫ Like being blind from longing ♫

♫ the days when everything was dark ♫

♫ I thought I’d be fine ♫

♫ If a few seasons passed ♫

♫ Come let me love you. I believe that ♫

♫ this story isn't over yet ♫

♫ I can’t go back to before knowing you ♫

♫ So that’s all I could do ♫

♫ If I am not yet a complete stranger to you ♫

♫ Before my tears dry out ♫

♫ Will you come ♫

Hyeon Su ♫ and be at my side ♫

♫ Will you come to me ♫

Jeong Seon ♥ ♫ Come to me ♫

Yes, Jeong Seon.

Can we meet?

It's been awhile. ♫ I couldn't see ♫

It has.♫ Are now so clear to me ♫

I asked to meet because I had something to say.

I received an offer to be the head chef in a restaurant in Hong Kong.

Is that a good thing?

The conditions are really good, so yes.

Congratulations.

I knew it would work out well for you.

I'll have to focus on it for about six months.

Do you want to come with me?♫ Now all my hopes and all my dreams ♫

I thought we might go back to how we were...♫ The kind of love that's truly real ♫

If we were somewhere other than here.♫ A guiding light that'll never fade ♫

"How we were before"...

I'm not sure what you mean by that.

I am sorry.

That's okay.

You look lonely.

Now that you've decided to leave for Hong Kong, do you feel restless?

Is it really over with Hyeon Su?

Hyeong... Do you want to have a drink tonight?

What's such a busy person doing here?

Are you making fun of me?

Didn't you hear my project got pushed back because of Eonni Hyeon Su?

Even then, it's in progress.

It is in progress.

I came out to meet CEO Park.

- Why?- To ignite my will to fight.

Watching Hyeon Su's success.

What do you mean it's going well for Hyeon Su?

She's pretty depressed recently.

Why?

Because she broke up with Chef On.

They broke up?

Wow, after all that fuss...

Love really doesn't amount to much.

It reeks of alcoholㅡ

What is all of this?

Did something happen?

Nothing's happened.

This is the first time I'm seeing you like this.

This is how I am when I get dumped.

Did you break up with Hyeon Su?

Whatever...

Don't hold on to anyone who wants to leave, and don't refuse anyone who's coming to you.

That's the best.

You'll feel better after you sleep.

Did you break up with my Jeong Seon?

The thing I'm curious about is why?

Jeong Seon would never break up with you.

You said you'll even accept me.

I'm Jeong Seon's only weakness.

He isn't lacking in any other aspect.

I don't think of you as a weakness, Mother.

It was just a problem between me and Jeong Seon.

Not a weakness, but something we shared("share" is "gong yu" in Korean).

But Gong Yu is a star.

What does Gong Yu have to do with Jeong Seon?

Don't tell me that you're dating Gong Yu?

- Mother... - Why? Is it true?

No, that's not what it is.

That's right.

Drink your tea.

If it's over with my son,

does it mean we won't meet anymore?

No, Mother.

We can still meet.

Jeong Seon is leaving for Hong Kong, under very good conditions.

If you change where you are, your heart can change too.

Do you think women would leave a young and successful man alone?

Doesn't it make you mad when I say that?

It kind of does.

That's a relief.

If you were too at ease after leaving my son,

I wouldn't be happy.

He leaves next week.

CEO Park, I'm here.

What is it you want to say?

If you're trying to persuade me, don't.

I won't back down.

You don't have to.

I don't?

You have a good reason for complaining,

though it'll be hard for the company.

Your work and Writer Lee Hyeon Su's work have different target audiences,

plus one of you is on cable TV and the other is on mainstream network.

So I've decided to give it a go.

I won't thank you since this is only right.

What about casting?

Director Min is contacting a few stars.

The "has been" kind of stars?

A diamond on a dunghill is still a diamond.

You should be grateful if they decide to do it.

I got it.

I am leaving.

Also, did you know Eonni Hyeon Su and Jeong Seon have broken up?

This is your chance, CEO Park.

I don't rob empty houses.

"Kind Soup Doesn't Answer His Phone"

Did any of the potential cast contact us? How many?

Not yet.

Don't you have any more water?

Ah, seriously.

You're indecent.

That was the last of it.

Are we out of water?

Yeah, we have to go buy some.

I'll go, then.

Why would you go, Eonni?

Director Kim should!

I need to get some air, this is frustrating.

I'll get it, I'm going out anyway.

Hello. Come in.

Hello.

CEO Park said to eat this while you work.

Where is he?

He's in the car.

He should come in. It'd be better to eat together.

CEO Park, have you eaten?

Not yet.

Then we should eat together. Do you have any other plans?

No, I haven't.

Take care of yourself too instead of always looking out for us.

Wait inside.

And where are you going?

To buy water.

- Let's go together, then. - Okay then.

My treat. Buy anything you want, CEO.

- You'll regret this. - Under 30,000 won (about $28).

Oh, that's so stingy. Consider what I have done for you. 30,000 won?

You can get 20 cup ramen with 30,000 won.

This is the spiciest cup ramen.

You could only buy them at convenience stores.

Aren't you the one that likes spicy food?

That's true. What do you like?

Sweet things?

What about this then?

Strawberry milk, too.

You have the taste of a child.

Hold this one, I'll hold that.

I don't want to.

That one's heavy.

Exactly, that's why we're sharing the weight, CEO.

You don't listen. Give it to me.

It's fine.

Are you hurt?

Why would I be hurt?

Carry this.

It's extremely light. But we're already home.

That's why I gave it to you.

Don't cry alone. That means you're not allowing me into your life.

I need to know what pains you.

So I can love and understand you more deeply.

You have an appointment with Chef On at 9.00 am.

He said 30 minutes would be enough so I slipped it in. Should I cancel?

No.

Why did you come?

This... I'm not breaking the contract. It's for three years.

But I sent it to you in case you were uncomfortable.

I told you before that I wouldn't make you lose money.

I'm getting a lot of offers. If you want to be a proper agent, settle them for me.

Alright. Send them to me.

I'm going to Hong Kong, from Chef Eric Song's recommendation.

I decided that alone, you don't get commission.

The airing schedule for Hyeon Su's drama has been pushed forward.

That's great.

- Surprise! - Surprise! Woo!

What's all of this?

We congratulate Chef On Jeong Seon with all our heart.

We support you, Chef On!

- Surprise! - Congrats.

We congratulate Chef On Jeong Seon with all our heart. Good Soup Famliy

Congratulations to Chef On!

I got an offer to be head chef in a restaurant in Hong Kong.

You want to come with me?

I thought we might be able to go back to the way we were, if we were somewhere other than here.

I said I'd take you to the airport.

I said it's fine. Just look after Good Soup for me.

I will.

He told me to wait for him.

He called me, but I couldn't answer because I was with you, CEO.

Now, where can I meet him?

Are you editing episode 4?

Yes.

That scene where Jun Ho confesses but Yeon Wu says she misses Hae Yeong...

Yes?

The monologue.

Isn't it too cruel to Jun Ho?

Is it?

That conveys how much desperate Yeon Wu's love is.

Why do you keep picking on the script?

Just because her love is important, can you put a man's innocent love to shame like that?

That's love. Being cruel to the ones you're not in love with.

Lee Hyeon Su who keeps going back and forth saying humans are full of contradictions

I hurt and regretted it so much, how could I forget that?

I thought I changed, but I guess I haven't.

I love you, Jeong Seon.

A feeling you get just once in your life.

I fully understood that in the five years you were gone.

I'll wait for you.

Let's live together.

Let's live together.

I lost you after thinking too much. What do you mean by 'think'?

Do you want to come with me?

I'll step out for a bit.

♫ It's not okay ♫

♫ No, it hurts like crazy ♫

♫ As if my heart is broken ♫

♫ I can't take a single step ♫

♫ In all the memories that rush through my head ♫

♫ You are so warm ♫

♫ So I'm sad ♫

They say if you get someone shoes, they run away.

So I bought them, for you to run to me.

With Hyeon Su and me, either I was going faster than she was,

or she was going faster than I was.

♫ It's not okay ♫

In order for us to not lose the timing, we have to continue to love.

♫ No it hurts like crazy ♫

I don't know what time he's leaving,

but I should still try to go to him.

♫ I can not take a single step ♫

♫ My tears are falling like rain ♫
