How dare the likes of you cross the line?

How dare the likes of you try to get to me?

You don't mind becoming like the maid who died miserably?

Then see for yourself how it felt.

Come and go as I say.

When I tell you to wait, stop right where you are.

Like a dog waiting for its owner.

How did things go?

(Episode 5)

Did you find out anything?

What is Kang Yoon Kyum's phone number?

You didn't even get his number?

You prepared meticulously to hack his phone...

and you got nothing?

There was no time for that.

The chairman was there. How was there no time?

What exactly happened?

Something urgent came up and he rushed off.

Did you arrange to meet again?

Not yet.

What nonsense is this?

You're telling me...

you let him walk away after he came to see you.

After all the effort we made to get close to him,

you couldn't even get his phone number?

I gave everything I had to make them stand trial.

What on earth did you do?

How did you mess this up?

I'm sure there will be another chance.

That man toyed with you.

I knew it.

You're too young for this.

What's your point?

You don't know men.

But I can understand that.

You never had a chance to understand men.

You won over your husband for your agenda.

And you did exactly what I told you to seduce Kang Yoon Kyum.

That's all you did.

Get to the point.

In his eyes, you seemed easy...

or he figured out your cheap tricks. How immature!

He'll never approach you again.

What will you do if I seduce him?

Since when did my age become a problem?

Those men who killed my father were brutal.

But the world and you...

were never kind to a young girl who had lost her father.

When that happened,

I was so young.

You might have started the fight.

But I'm the one fighting it.

I'm the one making love to a man I don't even love!

Do you think I'm young and immature?

You know nothing!

Since you're old, then you won't make mistakes.

In that case,

you ought not to make the mistake of saying the wrong thing.

(Liyan Kindergarten's Career Project)

That's the draft proposals...

for Liyan Kindergarten's Career Project.

If you just want to save face, check Proposal A.

If you want to make an effort, check Proposal B.

Personally, I would like to recommend Proposal A.

Let's go with Proposal B.

I'll go over this with La El.

How dare the likes of you cross the line?

How dare the likes of you try to get to me?

You don't mind becoming like the maid who died miserably?

Then see for yourself how it felt.

Come and go as I say.

When I tell you to wait, stop right where you are.

Like a dog waiting for its owner.

Why are you handling all this on your own?

La El!

La El, are you okay?

What does your name mean?

One who belongs to the deity.

My father named me.

Ta-da.

(Liyan Kindergarten's Career Project)

(Table of Contents)

Your kindness impresses me.

I know you're busy,

but your desire to help the kids is so touching.

My husband is very grateful for your help.

He wants to meet you in person and introduce himself.

What do you think?

Should I set up a meeting?

I'm sure you will get along very well with my husband.

Don't you agree, Sun Bin?

You'll come to the meeting once I set it up, right?

Of course. I will attend it.

The chairman is a great man.

Okay.

I'll see if I can attend it.

I'll drop them off and come back.

Mr. Kim?

Why are you answering my father's phone? What about him?

I'll head over there now.

I'm going to acknowledge what I just accomplished...

and get him to give me work for my reward.

But you just sent away your driver.

Right.

What do I do?

Why don't I drive you?

Can you?

It's a beautiful, classic home.

It's an old house.

I lived here since birth until I got married.

I'll wait for you here.

The talk might run long.

Come inside and wait.

Come on in.

Gosh.

Did you see that?

No.

Pretend you didn't see that.

If you know too much about one-percenters,

you can get hurt.

Hey, So Ra.

You're here too.

- Dad. - Hey.

You didn't call ahead. What is it?

I have good news.

He still hasn't given up?

It's a mere clinical trial. Seriously.

Dad!

Please do something! Stop! He's bleeding!

Please stop the bleeding!

Honey!

Dad!

Hello.

Let me escort you.

Gosh, he's such a hassle.

Please wait here for a moment.

Sure.

Oh, my. It's hot!

Are you okay?

I think I got a burn. Could you get me some cold water?

I'll get you the first-aid kit.

Seo Eun Pyeong wants to meet Yoon Kyum?

Yes, I'm sure.

That's unusual.

Perhaps, he needs money.

I didn't sense anything like that.

We'll get to the reason later.

He's showing interest. Now is the time to get him involved.

Just stuff his pocket with money.

He's young and competent, so he will last long.

Once he joins us, he'll be with us for at least 20 years.

Yes, sir.

It's a cold wet towel.

Thank you.

My dad commended me big time.

It feels great.

Did he say he'd give you the work?

He said he'd let me know on my birthday.

I'll have to wait.

That's my husband.

Honey.

I went to see my dad.

Sun Bin gave me a ride home.

How's your father?

The same as always.

I have good news.

It will make you want to do whatever I want for my birthday.

Let's talk inside.

I got a nice idea.

You said you wanted to work.

Someone smart like you shouldn't beg for work.

Prove what you can do...

at someplace official.

Don't even give him water.

Starving might make him come to his senses.

Or should we let his family see that sight?

If we remove the noise and analyze the voices,

it might be worth the evidence.

Eunsang Industrial Company is another example of your dad's case.

We better ask him to join our lawsuit later.

Not later.

Help him now.

CEO Lee Chang Hwan of Eunsang Industrial Company.

Help him how?

Hire an attorney for him and provide info on purpose...

so he can defend his company by legal means.

That could expose our identity.

It'll be over before then.

I will make that happen.

If we turn a blind eye on a victim,

it will mean we're no different from them.

This is a world of monsters,

but I won't become like them.

Say that after making progress.

Han Pan Ro, Han So Ra, Kang Yoon Kyum.

I managed to make connections with them all at once.

Now it will be a matter of time before they stand trial.

Did you hear from Kang Yoon Kyum or something?

Don't worry.

When Han So Ra's big day comes,

he will choose me.

Welcome.

This way.

- Please wait in line. - Next guests, please.

- Oh, my. - Wait.

- I'd understand that. - I see.

So...

Someone smart like you shouldn't beg for work.

Prove what you can do at someplace official.

Isn't that Seo Eun Pyeong?

- Seo Eun Pyeong? - It's really him.

- It's Seo Eun Pyeong. - Oh, my.

- Gosh, this is breathtaking. - Really...

The future presidential candidate is about to meet...

one of the richest men in the country.

Isn't that Assemblyman Seo Eun Pyeong?

He rarely shows up at an occasion like this.

So Ra wants me for interpretation.

Assemblyman Seo.

He's an acquaintance of yours?

I heard Chairman Giovani wants to make connections with politicians.

Wow, So Ra. I'm impressed.

Welcome.

Assemblyman Seo Eun Pyeong, let me introduce you...

to Chairman Giovanni of CL,

Chairman Kang Yoon Kyum of LY Group,

and my friend and her husband. She'll help us with interpretation.

It's a pleasure to meet you, Assemblyman Seo.

The pleasure is mine, Chairman Kang.

It's good to see you.

This is Assemblyman Seo Eun Pyeong.

This is Chairman Kang Yoon Kyum of LY Group.

And this is his wife, Han So Ra.

Greetings.

My husband and I are close friends of Chairman Kang and his wife.

That's lovely.

So Ra, she needs to introduce my husband too.

You two don't like me coming forward.

You can introduce yourselves on your own.

Assemblyman Seo is known as the future presidential candidate.

Assemblyman Seo is known as the future presidential candidate.

I see.

It's nice to meet you. I'm Seo Eun Pyeong.

"It's nice to meet you. I'm Seo Eun Pyeong."

He says he loves Korean culture.

And he wants to get along with you.

Thank you very much.

- He says he's grateful. - My pleasure.

Your Italian is very good.

I found the fun in other languages, so I learned how,

but I'm not so fluent.

Would you like some more champagne?

Thank you.

Excuse me, but are you a model?

No, I'm just an ordinary housewife.

I can't believe it. How can that be?

Thank you so much.

You're welcome.

Be careful.

Thank you, Mr. Seo.

Don't drink too much.

The lawyer association seminar that our party rep's hosting is upstairs.

He wants you to come over to back him up.

I guess he saw you come in.

Okay.

I'll leave you to chat.

I have another appointment I must keep.

(Ongoing Event, Staff Only)

Mr. Seo. Thank you so much for attending...

an uncomfortable event.

Don't talk like that, La El.

Speak more freely.

We're close enough to do so.

I know you avoid such events.

I don't want to be a nuisance,

but I needed your help.

Is there a way I can make it up to you?

Please tell me.

I know.

You hate being in debt and must always pay one back.

Don't worry. It's not for free.

I will ask for your help. Donate your talent.

Mr. Seo's completely smitten with you.

I'm sure of it.

He's just an old friend from the neighborhood.

Plus, I'm married.

That makes you more delectable.

The forbidden fruit.

You can be so silly.

Thanks to you, I look like someone with great skill.

You do have great skills. You just had no chance to shine.

You said you want to own a department store.

Can't you take over your brother-in-law's shopping mall?

What?

It's much bigger than Eun Dam Ri's department store.

You said you want to own a department store.

Can't you take over your brother-in-law's shopping mall?

I should send my child to Liyan too.

Do you have a kindergarten-age child?

Liyan's great, sir.

But my kid's in middle school.

What?

He's a teenager and I'm thinking of sending him to kindergarten.

Isn't that crazy?

That's just how charming...

you are, Sun Bin.

You set fire to this man's heart.

Make up for it.

Thank you for thinking highly of me.

It's more than that.

Wasn't Chairman Giovanni pleased to see Mr. Seo?

He was.

So? Don't you think I have bragging rights?

You do.

I don't need a designer item or car for my birthday.

Get me something else.

Like what?

A night in a hotel suite.

Decorate the room with roses, my favorite flower.

I want you to love me all night.

Like when we were newlyweds.

So Ra, who on earth is that woman?

Why did you bring that vulgar woman where she doesn't belong?

What did my friend do?

Don't you see that?

Your husband having a good time?

At least he doesn't treat her the way he treats other women.

That's a relief.

Was that meant to be an insult?

What did you say? My gosh.

How could you say such a thing?

My husband's drunk.

He drank too much out of anger because you insulted him.

Why are you doing this?

Why is it my fault that he's drinking?

Who else insulted him but you?

Why are you always attacking me?

Do you have something against me?

Stop it.

Who do you think you are?

Are you saying I'm a nobody?

Who do you think you are, then?

Chi Kyum.

You're drunk.

- I'm not. - Go home.

Are you the older of us two?

I'm the eldest!

Sun Bin. Don't you think he's hilarious?

What a punk.

Let's go somewhere else.

Go home!

How dare you?

- Are you all right? - Let go!

What are you doing?

What if someone were to see?

What are you doing when you're so wary of what others think?

What do you care?

Your brother isn't a coward, at least.

What?

Are you trying to drive me mad?

Why do you think I'm doing this because of you?

You want me to wait?

Like a dog waiting for its owner?

Why should I?

I don't care about you now.

What?

Stay with me.

He was afraid...

of falling in love.

Leave with me now.

I was momentarily taken over by lust,

but you shocked me awake.

I no longer want to be your one-night stand.

Such treatment isn't my style.

If you want me, you will grovel.

Tell me you love me and beg me to take you.

I will be the master.

Not you.

Do you remember the poker game?

The last play of the game will decide the winner and loser.

Meet me at the place of my choice...

on your wife's birthday.

It's not an invitation. I'm telling you to show up.

If you show up, you will have me to yourself.

But if you turn it down,

you will never get another chance.

The decision is yours.

Adorno is a style of tango you dance alone without a partner.

People call it the art of free leg.

The technique embellishes women.

Ms. Han, you were born to dance tango.

Your dancing figure is beautiful.

- Is that so? - I mean it.

Given your talent, you could debut at a milonga.

Don't you agree?

What's a milonga?

It's a club where people dance tango.

Everyone is wearing formal gowns. How elegant.

They are dancing with strangers.

Since we're on the subject, let's go to a tango club.

Why don't we go on your birthday?

Sounds great.

I'm in.

Then let me put together a VIP party...

with only chosen talented dancers.

You decided on my birthday party without my permission.

Ms. Han gave us a new order for her birthday party.

A new order?

She has a party with other parents in the afternoon.

And she'll be busy with her husband in the evening.

Therefore, the big surprise party will be canceled.

But prepare a more refined surprise party.

We have to cancel the singers and the quartet.

A refined surprise party.

- What could that be? - How can a surprise party...

be refined?

Exactly.

What do we do?

I think I'm going to be sick tomorrow.

Oh, my.

I wanted to get you a tango dress.

My gosh. This is beautiful.

You can wear this at your first milonga.

And wear this dress...

on your birthday for your husband.

Show him a bit of adorno.

You make it impossible for me not to like you.

How gorgeous.

- Where's my husband? - He's in his study.

Don't tell me the hotel he booked for my birthday.

You know I like surprises.

Yes, ma'am.

I clearly told you...

that I like surprises.

A refined surprise party.

I'll look forward to it.

Yes, ma'am.

Meet me at the place of my choice...

on your wife's birthday.

Da Bi.

Dad said he had to think about something.

So I've been quiet.

You're home.

Honey.

Are you thinking about my birthday party?

I'll be happy with whatever hotel you choose.

Mom, are you going somewhere?

Yes. Mom and Dad are going someplace special on my birthday.

It's a hotel.

Cool!

Ms. Han, happy birthday.

There's nothing here.

This is a refined surprise party.

We decided to skip decorations and not to hold an event.

But we invited Gabriel, a Michelin-star chef from New York.

And he prepared a banquet for you.

What about my husband?

He went to work.

Chef Gabriel made the cake from scratch.

- Happy birthday to you - Happy birthday to you

- Happy birthday to you - Happy birthday to you

- Happy birthday - Happy birthday

Shut your mouths!

You should have woken me up when my husband went to work!

I'm sorry.

The chairman went to work very early in the morning.

And we weren't sure if he prepared an event without us.

Get it out of my face.

Sir.

I reserved the suite at the Meridien, sir.

Happy birthday.

It's a riding helmet.

Yes.

Your father loves horses.

I thought it might be useful to you, so I prepared one for you.

I also prepared a lunch appointment...

with some people from the foundation.

I have a lot of plans on my birthday.

Yes. That's right.

You can go. Pick me up in the evening.

Today's party is a secret.

Yes, ma'am.

See you later.

You're here.

What's going on? Is something wrong?

Assemblyman Seo wants to meet today.

On your birthday of all days.

Well,

Assemblyman Seo is very important to us.

He takes priority.

You should go.

There will be others at the party.

I'm sure everyone else will attend the party.

You'll meet a lot of cool people at the milonga.

You can look forward to it.

Okay.

Assemblyman Seo.

Keep him on a tight leash.

Dam Ri.

Something came up, so I can't go to the milonga.

Can you and Ji Hee celebrate Ms. Han's birthday with her?

One, two.

- One, two. - One, two.

- One, two. - One, two.

- Why would we do that? - One, two.

- One, two. - That's it. One, two.

Forget it. We're not going either.

Let's move back and line up again.

- Hold on. - En garde again.

Should we use this opportunity to make Han So Ra suffer?

- One, two. - Hold it with two hands.

- One, two. - One, two.

- That's it. One, two. - One, two.

- You're busy. - One, two.

I'll call Marco to cancel it.

(206 Huiyeon-dong, Kiyeon-gu, Seoul)

(Chairman Kang Yoon Kyum)

Han So Ra's going to feel so lost.

On her birthday, at that.

It feels so satisfying. Whoever did this deserves a praise.

Seriously.

Your idea...

Come in.

(Vice-president Kim Yi Sak)

What is it?

Someone sent this package for you.

Good work.

(Vice-president Kim Yi Sak)

(To Kim Yi Sak, From Lee Tae Jun)

(Vice-president Kim Yi Sak)

Hello, sir. What can I do for you?

I'm counting on you, Mr. Kim.

If something happens to me, keep La El safe on my behalf.

They wouldn't even imagine the shares of Gediks...

were transferred under her name.

While I buy some time,

try to find a way somehow.

This is Mr. Lee Tae Jun's voice.

What do you mean he sent a package? He died a long time ago.

(To Kim Yi Sak, From Lee Tae Jun)

I'm going to send this to Kim Yi Sak.

(To Kim Yi Sak, From Lee Tae Jun)

I've waited more than 10 years...

to send this.

Get off!

Darn...

Where are you?

Come get me. Now!

Which hotel did the chairman book?

It's the suite room of Meridien.

But the chairman hasn't made any instructions yet.

Ms. Han is very angry.

I must escort her to the hotel, or she will kill me.

Where have you been?

I'm really sorry, ma'am.

The chairman booked a room at Meridien.

I'll escort you there right away.

(Chairman Kang Yoon Kyum)

If you show up, you will have me to the fullest.

But if you refuse, there won't be another chance.

The choice is up to you.

(Chairman Kang Yoon Kyum)

Sir, will you go straight...

- to the hotel for the birthday... - Cancel it.

- Pardon? - Something important came up.

But...

(Power off)

Stop Ms. Han from going to the hotel.

The chairman canceled the event.

Oh, no.

She even got changed into a dress and took off.

Honey?

Honey.

Where are the flowers?

Where's the gift?

There's nothing here.

Ma'am, we didn't get any instructions...

Today's my birthday.

Today's my birthday...

Today's my birthday.

It's my birthday today!

(Zeus Project)

Of all the projects so far,

this is the most dazzling.

We have minions to use, a clear financier, power,

and the best thing is...

Yes, sir.

Seo Eun Pyeong?

Seo Eun Pyeong?

Seo Eun Pyeong's joining?

Look forward to it.

This one will be the best ever.

(So Ra)

- What? - Dad!

It's my birthday.

But Yoon Kyum...

turned off his phone and went somewhere.

I can't even track him!

Oh, dear...

You can't even get a birthday in order?

And you want to run a business?

What a fool. Hang up!

- What now? - I don't know.

I ran you a bath.

(Bo Ram's mom)

So Ra?

Sun Bin!

What's the matter? Why are you crying?

My birthday is ruined!

The milonga, the night at the hotel, everything!

I love my husband to death.

But I guess I'm loving him the wrong way.

You shouldn't allow freedom to the one you love.

What about your father?

Did he give you a business as a birthday present?

He never even planned to.

I'm so lonely, Sun Bin.

So Ra.

Shall I come over?

You're all I have.

No, it's fine.

See me tomorrow, not tonight.

The shopping mall.

I'll help you take it over.

Yes, do that.

I'll be the chairwoman and you can be vice-chair.

Let's run it together.

Yes, So Ra.

The phone is turned off.

Please leave a message after the beep.

(Husband)

You can't ever betray me.

Will you be on my side forever?

Of course.

Until death.

Decorate the room with roses, my favorite flower.

I want you to love me all night.

I can't let this slide.

Tell me everything before I lose my mind.

What are you doing?

That's why I hesitated.

I was afraid I might fall in love.

It's the idea for the shopping mall.

Everything will come back to its place.

That's a great way to launder money. Isn't this plan perfect?

You don't deserve the chairman position!

I will take over LY and become the king.

If you stay by my side, I can do anything.

I'll be with you whatever happens.
