Original subtitles

Isn't there anything we should know in advance?

Actually... I was married.

Don't be mistaken.

You and I were over three years ago.

- What do you... - Three years ago,

we got divorced.

- Min Hong. - What happened?

Oh, I don't have a workshop anymore.

What?

- I'm going to Seoul. - Seoul?

Why Seoul? Where to?

Good morning!

In Seosan

I had a workshop and now I'm joining as special recruit.

What kind of crazy person would scout you?

The president.

- Do you have a plan? - Death notes were too weak.

This time it's hell list.

Whoa...

- Is it because of me? - Eat it.

I'll take you home.

Manager, what's the matter? You're drunk.

Where do you live?

Oh, my.

He must be in love with me. Oh my gosh.

Oh, no. Seriously.

What should I do?

Who's being noisy at this early hour?

- Episode 8 -

Let's have hangover soup.

What are you...

Let go. Ah! Seriously!

You— Here—

This is our home. I mean my home.

What...

If I'm going to work in Seoul, I need a house.

This place was nice and has good transportation.

No. No, no.

This is a nightmare. It's a nightmare.

Hey, I made pollack soup.

You have a hard day when you don't have soup.

Sit down.

Ah... No.

This is a nightmare.This is a nightmare!

Hey. You wanted to go to court today.

This might be our last. Can't you just have breakfast?

No.

Hey. I'll repeat since you don't seem to get it.

All you and I can talk about is divorce by consent.

So, don't ever call me privately.

Don't talk to me or even say hi.

I think differently.

Until the day we're completely divorced legally,

I'll treat you personally, talk to you and say hi.

Why are you doing this?

What will you get out of making things even worse?

I don't want anything out of it.

I just want to do my best till the end.

So I won't regret it.

So, it's about you having a clean conscience.

I bet my doing this will make you feel better.

Think about it. The last images of the man you chose...

Wouldn't you have good memories

when he does his best till the end?

Do you usually leave at this time?

Let's carpool to save energy.

Going down. Door opening.

Going down. Door closing.

Door opening. Door closing.

Min Hong!

Hyo-Hyo Rim?

Manager.

Why are you coming out together?

Oh. While Min Hong is working,

he's looking for a house so I made a suggestion.

You did?

All Min Hong does is work all day in his Seosan workshop.

He knows nothing about Seoul and house prices.

Oh.

But what brings you here?

I have an appointment.

- Appointment? - Appointment?

But... Why did you come to see me?

That's because you bought me coffee once and

your house is on the way to work so I stopped by.

No, I'm okay.

Anyway, were you going to work together?

Not at all!

I would never do that kind of thing.

Min Hong and I are coworkers and neighbors.

Other than that, there's nothing between us.

Oh. I see...

Then... Go ahead and have coffee together.

I'll be seeing you.

- Let's go. - Huh?

Good morning!

Good morning!

Why are you coming together?

Min Hong's house is on the way to work.

So we'll be coming together often.

Ridiculous. Is this dating between coworkers?

- What's wrong? - Oh my gosh.

- Are you dating? - What?

What are you talking about?

Well. You're both good-looking. That can happen.

Thank you.

Lee Min Hong, Hwang Hyo Rim, the business trip is today.

Yes.

In case you have other engagements,

it's no problem if you decide not to go.

I can do this perfectly on my own.

- I don't have anything. - Me neither.

Then don't be late.

Manager.

What's the name of the leatherworker?

Merijein

I'll do it.

It's okay. Why don't you go and stand over there?

Sure.

Sit here.

You want to look good in photos.

Sorry.

She does her job.

She's really feisty.

But she's so nice.

I could tell he was obsessive when he chased after you.

Not that it's a secret between you and me.

You're both good-looking. That can happen.

Thank you.

This time I removed the stain perfectly.

I brought a magnifying glass just in case.

Check carefully.

- Hey. - Huh? Yes?

When was your last date?

Me?

That was...

It must've been a while ago.

That can't be. There were so many,

I needed time to think.

Why do you ask?

I'm wondering if this guy likes me or not.

How can you tell?

Are you seeing someone?

Not yet. But soon. Probably?

What did he do?

The girl he likes is feisty but is professional.

- Isn't that me? - What else?

People were saying we looked good together.

He didn't say no. He just laughed.

- And critically... - Critically?

I had coffee on my lips and he wiped it off with his hand.

- That's flirting for sure. - Flirting?

I'm not talking about that.

What's a sure way to find out?

What's the matter?

Skinship. (Physical contact)

Skinship?

Don't you have experience?

Of course I do. A long time ago.

Get physical and you'll know right away.

Is that so?

Okay. Take a look at the apron.

Isn't it perfect?

It took us so long. How can this be perfect?

I want you to take care of things faster from now on.

Ah... Darn it.

- Where's Min Hong? - He went to get something.

Why is he delaying things like this?

I told you the time already.

Sorry. I went to get this.

- What's that? - Can you hurry up and get in?

Yes.

You want to get in the front?

Let's sit in the back.

Am I your driver?

I'll get in the front.

Min Hong. See you later.

Does the leatherworker live this far away?

Over there.

Min Hong.

I have a cramp.

Oh, yes. I'll help you.

- Thank you. - Not at all.

Are you home, sir?

Sir!

He must not be home. What should we do?

Let's wait for him.

- Let's go. - That's okay.

- Wait up. - Yes.

Min Hong, since we're here, let's take a picture.

Oh, sure.

Manager, a bit to the side.

No, get out.

- Good. - Yes.

Sir.

- Sir, one minute.- Go back.

Can we talk for a minute?

We're here to fix your chair.

We're asking you. Let us fix it.

What's going on? Do you know him?

He was my customer once.

Awesome. Then ask him for the leather. Since you know him.

Not him but his wife.

My husband got this from Sweden. Can you fix it?

You brought it from such a far place. I'm so sorry.

Right now I don't think I can.

Oh, really?

I've been to many places.

No one can fix it perhaps because it was handmade.

If you make an appointment, I can fix it for you.

But I have prior appointments with my customers.

So I can't fix it right now.

I can't wait too long.

Then can I order a new chair that looks like this?

Of course. Come back with your husband.

He's too busy, he can't come.

My husband is a leatherworker.

He works with leather?

What's his name?

I recognized him by his name.

I felt sorry for not being able to fix his chair.

It stayed with me.

That's an amazing relationship.

I still won't do the leather.

But since you came from afar, you can have a meal.

Why does Jimmy Jang only want your leather?

Do you know why?

That guy, unless it's somethingpeople say is the best,

he doesn't care for it.

Of course, Jimmy Jang only wants the best.

But that's not the reason he only wants your leather.

He wants to show there's a good leatherworker in Korea,

to the global market.

The skills that you have,

he doesn't want them to disappear from the world.

Disappear from the world?

Do you even know what that means?

Someone died when I was doing leatherwork.

My skills are nothing compared to the life of a person.

Though your wife is dead,

her encouragement toward you,

and her respect won't go away.

You can still keep them in your heart.

Ah! Oh my God!

Why does he live here if he's one of the best leatherworkers?

He should be rich.

What's wrong with this place? It's environment-friendly.

He dresses weird

and grew his hair like a goblin, so he'd like this place.

How about his wife?

She probably didn't live here.

Separated?

I heard he quit doing leatherwork after she died.

Is it so hard that they were separated?

Think about it. If you really love someone, why separate?

She was happy.

He might be busy but if you're getting him a present,

he'd happily take the time.

I don't want to bother a busy person.

Aren't you lonely that he's too busy to be with you?

Sometimes.

But I'm happy more often than not.

How is that possible?

You spend more days alone than with him.

How can you be happy?

He seems happiest when you just let him be.

Him being relaxed makes me happy too.

Still...

If someone comes deep inside your heart,

it's like he's by your side,

even when he's actually not.

It depends on how you think.

Sir, the chair is done. Do you want to try and sit?

I think we should get going now.

Take the chair inside since it's going to rain—

- I told you to have a meal. - Huh?

Make a fire and get some peppers from the field.

Min Hong, let's make a fire.

Okay.

Yes.

Let's make a fire.

Whoa.

Disappearing from the world?

Do you know what that means?

Huh?

Someone died while I was doing leatherwork.

My skills are nothing compared to a person's life.

Hey!

There! I did it. Wow.

What? Why are you looking at me like that?

Are you going to blame me like last time?

No.

You're so handsome.

Like a plaster cast.

Yeah. I am handsome.

Let me try once.

Try what?

Hyo Rim. Hyo Rim? Hyo Rim.

Hyo Rim, wait.

Ah!

Whoa!

- It's alive. - How do you eat that?

I'm cooking it.

Drink up.

I don't eat fish, sir.

Just eat up.

Okay.

Huh?

Jimmy Jang—let me meet him.

Sir.

I thought she died because of me.

I thought she got lonely while I was tanning.

Her heart got sick.

She could've lived happily,

but I ruined it.

I wasn't going to be beside her,

but I didn't let her go.

She tried to leave me and

let me do as much work as I wanted.

I didn't know.

I looked at animal hide all my life,

but never looked in her heart.

Hey, did you, maybe

see anything?

See what?

No. It's nothing.

Let me try once.

Do what?

What?

Why do I care if they do that?

Why is that your business? I'm so tired.

Go to sleep. Come on, sleep.

I'm tired.

If someone comes deep inside your heart,

it's like he's beside you,

even when he's actually not.

Let's go to court next week.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Grandma.

Who are you?

You don't even recognize me anymore?

It's Min Hong.

I don't know you at all.

Come on.

I tried to come but couldn't.

I was busy going to work in Seoul. That's why.

I thought Ra Hee was making excuses when she said this.

Should we go for a walk?

I got some red bean bread.

Grandma.

I think I should let Ra Hee go now.

If we get separated, I won't be able to come because of Ra Hee.

I'm so sad.

I can't hear anything.

Father.

It's been such a long time. I'm sorry.

I'm getting married.

I'll bring her to see you when things get cleared up.

Sorry.

For what?

If you are, come more often.

I'll come more often.

Huh?

Min Hong.

We meet again like this. This must be destiny.

Strangely, my heart hurts.

It feels like my blood is rushing.

I feel hot.

My face blushes.

I keep hearing his voice as if the radio is on.

They don't know his full name. They just called him Mr. Lee.

Are you... Mr. Lee?

I saw your story in an Italian magazine.

I asked for a quote on furniture for my hotel.

Oh. James Hwang?

Yes. They say talents eventually show up.

You got scouted by Bijor Furniture.

I never knew I'd join Bijor.

Nor that you were Hyo Rim's brother.

I told you. We're connected in a lot of ways.

I heard a lot about you from Hyo Rim.

Let's have lunch sometime.

Sure. Anytime is good for me.

See you again.

Let's go.

Call me.

Hwang Jae Min

Designer Lee Ra Hee and Hwang Jae Min

Come on in.

I heard. You persuaded the leatherworker Jimmy Jang wants?

Good work.

Thank you.

It wasn't me. It was my team members.

You're so modest.

And today, Merijein Hotel

is making an official offer.

I wanted you to hear this too so I called you.

Oh, yes.

John Lester is having a relief concert in Korea.

The venue is going to be my hotel's multipurpose hall.

He's doing the concert and is staying in the suite

for an interview on YouTube.

It'll be broadcast live, globally.

So I'm going to change the furniture in all of the rooms.

I want to work with Avvio.

That's an honor.

I'm really sorry for this.

Jimmy Jang's exhibition, preparing for the new season,

and the hotel project,

it'll be impossible for you?

I can do it.

Really?

Why did you pick my team?

There are other good teams in Bijor Furniture.

The only person I recognize is you.

I'm not speaking as your fiance.

I'm speaking as president of Merijein Hotel.

I bet anyone else would make the same choice.

I heard Hwang Jae Min had an arranged date.

About two weeks ago? At the hotel cafe.

Jae Min, do you have coffee here often?

No. Why do you ask?

Just... I told you last time that they have good cakes here.

Should I order one?

No, next time.

- We'll meet often now. - Yeah.

Seeing that my mother accepts my suggestion to work with you,

she's slowly accepting us.

Then come to the hotel after work.

Let's check the layout and atmosphere of the suite.

Okay.

Isn't Avvio the team with Lee Ra Hee?

I want you to reconsider working with that team.

Lee Ra Hee isn't the only person in that team.

Then...

Working overtime again.

How can you say yes to every project? We have a tight schedule.

What? Sounds fun to me.

Merijein Hotel was merged with Jeju's C Hotel.

- James Hwang? - Yes.

Designer Lee Ra-hee and Hwang Jae Min

It's expanding itself.

It might be hard work for now but let's do our best.

The opportunity won't come twice.

Yes!

Okay, let's do this.

Leave a bit early.

Don't be late for court.

Court of Law

I'll turn in the file on time.

Do you want to get something to eat?

Yes, Jae Min.

Today?

Letter of Resignation

Hi, Ra Hee.

Being on video like this,

I'm nervous and shy.

But it's a once-in-a-lifetime proposal.

I wanted to make it memorable.

So bear with me if it's awkward and weird. Okay?

It's been a year since

I met Lee Ra Hee.

I won't be able to forget your black feet.

- Are you okay? - Yes, well...

It doesn't usually fall easily.

But I hit it accidentally with my elbow.

High heels are uncomfortable.

I'm so... I fell in love because of your feet.

I laughed thinking, I'm a funny guy.

I'm really thankful that

you stayed beside me for one year of your precious time.

And... I wonder if I made you wait for too long,

or whether I hurt your tender heart. I feel sorry.

I forget what I was like before I met you.

Each day that I spend with you,

I'm so happy and grateful.

The woman I love, Lee Ra Hee.

Will you marry me?

Not everything is perfect for us right now,

but we can make it perfect.

Let's live our remaining lives just like the past year.

Oh. I'll try to learn how to cook ramen noodles.

I love you, Lee Ra Hee.

Ah...

Yes.

I'll marry you.

Why are you crying on a happy day?

Invitation

- Single Wife -

Do you usually accept every random project?

"All I care about is my career." Is that the idea?

Why are you two...

If it's okay, I want to sing at the wedding.

Lee Ra Hee, you got a one karat diamond ring.

What's wrong?

Try putting that down. Turn around.

Tighten the shoulders and back.

Did you find out about what I told you?

Saying there's some background or something,

I can't take that as family.

This is a request and a warning.

If you want to let her live like a human being, take her away.
