There are articles and comments
on the bulletin board.

It's not appropriate to keep
acting as if you know nothing.

Our company has received critical
damage to our reputation.

Let's go.

Ms. Cha.

Ms. Cha Soo Hyun.

Are you going home now?

I have some money.

It's my treat today,

so why don't we go and get some ramyeon?

What on earth?

That man was Jin Hyuk?

Jin Hyuk.

That's the ramyeon guy?

There's too much traffic to the rest stop,

so why don't we eat cup noodles
at a convenience store today?

I'll buy.

Mrs. Kim, is this for real?

(Episode 5)

Ms. Cha, should I take you
to a convenience store?

Please drop Mr. Kim off somewhere quiet.

It'd be strange for the four
of us to eat ramyeon together.

That's right.

Please pull the car over where it's quiet.

You could pull over right there.
How about it, Mr. Nam?

Yes. You could get off
there, Secretary Jang.

What? Me?

Yes. You and I should get off.

Mr. Nam, this is no laughing matter.

We're not in a club. Why would we go
to the convenience store together?

Right, Ms. Cha?

If you're feeling left
out, you can drop by...

the convenience store with Mr. Nam.

This is a big problem.

You have to think carefully.
This could become a headache.

Mr. Nam, why didn't you stop her?
What's wrong with you?

How long has it been? Maybe 25 years?

- What?
- I haven't seen such a cool guy.

I was just like him 25 years ago.

This is driving me crazy.

You don't have a guy like him, do you?

Taxi!

Let's go to a convenience store, Mi Jin.

Baby, let's go eat ramyeon!

Baby!

Baby!

You're not really going to go to
a convenience store, are you?

I'll drive you home.

No.

Your face could get puffy if
you eat ramyeon at this hour.

Let's go to an amazing tea shop.

You must know...

another amazing vending machine.

When your heart's beating fast like today,

there's a tea shop perfect for it.

You have to turn right over there.

Is this a tea shop?

Gosh, Jin Hyuk!

- My goodness.
- Hello.

Come here.

- Gosh.
- Gosh.

I almost forgot your face.

It's been long, hasn't it?

Why did you get so thin?

- You got more beautiful.
- Oh, stop.

Did you have fun in Cuba?

Yes. It was amazing.

This is a friend I met in Cuba.

- Yes.
- Is that so?

Welcome.

It must feel a little strange here.

This looks like a personal space.
Please excuse my intrusion.

I believe everyone who
loves tea is a friend.

Since Jin Hyuk came, should
I bring out some good tea?

Yes.

Please make yourself at home.

Isn't it nice?

I told you about Ms. Lee once in Cuba.

Do you remember the
photographer friend my dad had?

The one who gave you a camera?

Yes. She's the wife of that friend.

She used to be a teacher.

After her husband died, she
spends her time traveling.

The building looks like a church.

Yes. She moved in...

when the empty church
went on sale for cheap.

Isn't she unique?

Hold on a second. I'll go and help Ms. Lee.

Girlfriend?

Pardon?

Didn't you bring her here
to introduce her to me?

It's not like that.

I needed help calming down.

Why? Did you confess your feelings to her?

Do you think she'll accept me if I do?

Let's see.

You look ugly today. Do it next time.

Come on. I'm getting
more handsome every day.

You must be losing your sight.

What are you saying?

- Look at me again.
- Forget it.

Today's not good. I don't want to see.
I won't look.

How does it taste?

It tastes nice and smooth.

I have a lot of other teas,

so you should taste them all.

I'm...

Where are you going?

I did my job with serving you tea.

Watch my house for a little bit.

I have to go massage an old
lady in the other neighborhood.

It won't take long.

Jin Hyuk, I just got really
good tea from Kunming.

You should taste that too. It's good.

Okay. See you.

Are you calm now?

I was startled because of you,
then I calmed down thanks to you.

I'm sorry I startled you.

But I have no regrets.

Jin Hyuk, it's going to get tough
at work starting tomorrow...

now that everyone knows.

People will start to make up more stories.

Ms. Cha, I already decided.

That's why I stepped in.

Decided what?

That you'll throw yourself into
the trouble caused by gossip?

You can't lose your temper
after having good tea.

Jin Hyuk, I'm not joking.

You're saying what I want to say.

I'm not joking.

I...

should try to become
someone meaningful to you.

That's what I decided.

Let's get up now.

We have to housesit. She's not back yet.

Also, she has a lot of expensive tea.

They can't get stolen.

Also, the tea you steep the second time...

tastes the best.

Ms. Cha.

It's my treat today,

so why don't we go and get some ramyeon?

1, 2...

I have to go eat lunch with my parents.

Let's meet up after that.

I'll call you guys after
eating with my family too.

We have to party like crazy.

Hye In, what about you? Do
you want to come with us?

I think my parents are almost here.
I think my dad just got here.

We'll probably go eat after some pictures.
You go first.

I'll text you in a little bit.

- See you later.
- Bye.

Hye In.

Jin Hyuk.

Congratulations on graduating.

Thanks to you, I got to
visit a girls' high school.

How are you here? What
about your part-time job?

I switched shifts. Your
dad couldn't come, right?

Yes. I told him he should stay
with Mom at the hospital.

Let's go have lunch together
and go see your mom.

Did her surgery go well?

Yes.

It's still a graduation.
We should take a picture.

I really didn't know you'd come.
Thank you so much.

Don't thank me, we're friends.

Look here.

1, 2, 3.

Let's take one together.

Here.

Look over here. Congratulations, Hye In.

1, 2, 3.

Then what...

should I do, Jin Hyuk?

Excuse me.

- Can you do me a favor?
- Sure.

If it's something reasonable.

Can you send a text to Jin
Hyuk and tell him to drop by?

- Why don't you do it yourself?
- He won't come if I do it.

I felt this when I saw you last time.

Are you a moneylender?

Goodness, Jin Hyuk is not
the type to borrow money.

How do I possibly look like a moneylender?

Come on. People on the streets
ask if I'm a professor.

- Don't judge a person by his looks.
- Still, you don't...

really seem like an intellectual.

Whatever. You can send
that text on your own.

I didn't mean you look dumb.

- Please, just send it for me!
- Seriously, you're so loud.

Why are you getting angry
when you're asking a favor?

You sound just like a hysteric spinster.

My gosh. Do I look like a spinster?

Then do you consider yourself young?
I don't think so.

Do you want to fight with me?

Why would I fight with someone
I've only seen twice?

Then why are you picking a fight?

You're the one who barged
in here and picked a fight.

- What's with this old lady?
- Old lady? What did you say?

You said you're not a spinster.
You must be an old lady then.

I'm a young woman. I'm not old!

Why am I telling you this?

There's no need to tell me, and
I don't even want to know.

Anyway, will you keep quiet if I text him?

Consider yourself lucky since I
really must meet Jin Hyuk today.

You and your little moon snails.

Do you know how delicious they are?

That young man admitted it himself?

They have lost their minds.

So, what are you planning to do now?

Are you going to let Ms. Cha
escape this situation like this?

I'm trusting you, Mr. Choi.

I hope you don't disappoint me.

What was that about?

Soo Hyun has lost her mind,
together with that young punk.

What is this vulgar behavior,
in front of all the employees?

This is so humiliating.

Did something happen?

I don't want to talk about it anymore.

Mother, what did you mean when you said...

you can't let Ms. Cha
escape this situation?

Are you going to sit back and
watch Donghwa Hotel collapse?

If the CEO has gone mad, it's
time to choose a new owner.

- That's her own hotel business.
- And who gave that to her?

Did you forget that was her alimony?

Of course not.

I had my hopes up on that hotel, but
she's on the verge of losing it.

We'll open a board of directors
meeting and get rid of her.

Secretary Kim, find out what
happened at Donghwa Hotel today.

Ms. Cha, that drawing you
were waiting for in Sokcho...

Did you receive it?

It's been taken care of.

I'm relieved since you went through a lot.

I'm not familiar with art or drawings.

Still, there's an exhibition in my
neighborhood on famous paintings,

and that makes me feel good.

- There's an art gallery?
- Yes.

There are paintings of famous
artists from the 1940s...

and landscape paintings by foreign
artists I don't even know of.

I drop by whenever I have time.

That's strange. I know
all the art galleries.

- And it's in Hongjae-dong?
- Yes.

That sounds like a lie.

What's the name of the art gallery?

Don't you mean the art
galleries in Buam-dong?

It's really in my neighborhood.

I can swear on my name, the
docent of Hongjae-dong.

Why do you have so many nicknames?

You were an excavator of
Hongjae-dong, and now a docent?

I'll show you around the
gallery if you visit one day.

You can let me off in
front of that station.

I'll take the subway.

By the way, Jin Hyuk.

- Tomorrow at work...
- Ms. Cha.

Given the situation,

us being awkward would seem even weirder.

Starting tomorrow, we must
become better friends.

A company is not such a casual place.

I'm not foolish enough to start
addressing you informally.

Does that sound that funny?

It does.

Call me if you want to
visit the art gallery.

Did you erase the picture
of my phone number?

- I'll write it down.
- 010-4329-2026.

I memorized it since you
wrote it on my palm.

I'm quite smart.

That's awesome. You really are brilliant.

But why didn't you ever send me a text?

There was no reason to.

You got my number, but why
aren't you giving me yours?

When did I get it? You wrote
it down for me, Jin Hyuk.

Hearing you call my name, it
feels like we've grown closer.

- Why don't you get off now?
- I'll stop joking.

I was just trying to comfort
you after what happened today.

I'm not afraid.

I've gone through more
than you can imagine.

I told you. It's nothing if you just smile.

Ms. Cha.

You are the CEO of Donghwa Hotel,

the daughter of Congressman Cha,

and the former daughter-in-law
of Taegyeong.

That's why I should treat you with respect.

- There's no need to.
- You're right.

We shouldn't do that.

You're saying "we" again.

I told you not to.

Is there really a reason not to?

I'll get going.

You'll lose if you get afraid.

You'll look bad tomorrow
if you think too much.

Get a good night's sleep.

Hey, you're here.

- Where's Jin Myung?
- He got off work early today.

He said he had an important
game to play or something.

My goodness. What kind of part-timer is he?

- Did you wait for me?
- Let's take a seat.

You've done something
very daring, Jin Hyuk.

All I did was say the truth.

You may already know,

but Ms. Cha didn't do anything
to hear those harsh words.

I was a bit moved.

It's not easy to step up like that.

Since I'm a secretary, I need to
think about Ms. Cha's position.

I'm worried about what
might happen tomorrow.

I waited to say...

that although I'm grateful
for everything you've done,

you should just stay still
and pretend you don't know.

There's nothing between you two anyway.

If you act seriously like this,

the situation might become funnier.

That's why we decided to act more casually.

"We"? Did you say "we"?

Did you refer to you and Ms. Cha as "we"?

Yes.

It's a first-person pronoun...

including me.

Gosh, I'm getting a headache.

- Excuse me.
- Yes?

Can we get a soju?

You should try some moon snails too.

They're amazing.

This is insane.

(Chan's Moon Snails)

Jin Hyuk, the taxi's here.

What's with her?

How do you know her?

She's my senior at work.

She works at such a nice company?

My gosh. I feel sorry for your company.

She drank too much.

I'm the only friend Soo Hyun has left.

She's filthy rich, but never
had the chance to date anyone.

Her mom practically forced
her to get married.

You're too young to handle Soo Hyun.

Do you think Taegyeong is
easy to go up against?

Her dad's political activities?

If it weren't for Taegyeong, he
wouldn't be where he is now.

To her, they're like a pair of shackles.

One that invites...

a former daughter-in-law
to a birthday party.

If she doesn't attend,

the chairwoman will throw a fit.

Still, Soo Hyun never shows tears
even though her heart aches.

What kind of a life is that,

Ms. Cha?

(Anonymous Bulletin Board)

Right. It's not a big deal.

I'm not joking.

I should try to become
someone meaningful to you.

That's what I decided.

Given the situation,

us being awkward would seem even weirder.

Starting tomorrow, we must
become better friends.

I'm not foolish enough to start
addressing you informally.

Good morning.

- Good morning, Ms. Cha.
- Good morning.

She came to work.

At the company lobby?

Yes, that's what I hear.

All right. Thank you.

Secretary Kim.

Yes, sir.

Look into that employee.

I want all details.

It's him.

During all my years here,
I've never been so shocked.

Hye In, can you believe it?

What are you talking about?

The entire situation.

Good morning.

Hello.

Good morning.

Here comes the lucky man.

- Sorry?
- I was just talking to myself.

Jin Hyuk,

what's your relationship with our CEO?

We met by chance somewhere,

but I found out after I got the job
that she's the CEO of Donghwa.

You expect me to believe that?

Ms. Cha is practically a celebrity.

I'm not interested in such
things, so I didn't know.

Han Gil,

get back to work as an
employee of this team.

Yes, ma'am.

You seem like you have a hangover.

I do, thanks to you.

Why not stick to just the noodles?
How much did you have?

I was so drunk that I left
my wallet at the bar.

I've never been that clumsy
before, but yesterday...

Do you know of a gallery in Hongjae-dong?

The sound of Hongjae-dong
makes me want to vomit,

and I don't want to know anything about it.

You and Kim Jin Hyuk have decided
to call yourselves "we",

a first-person plural pronoun.

- I don't even know anymore.
- What are you saying?

I hear you agreed to be casual friends.

- Did you meet with Jin Hyuk?
- "Jin Hyuk"?

My stomach burns.

Take care of that hangover.

My stomach is already covered in soot,

so I'd rather have some black coffee.

I'd also like a cup, please.

No. Get your own coffee.

Where are you?

Can't you

Can't you

Can't you hear my words?

Dae Chan, unlock your phone for me.

- Why?
- Join a dating app already.

Until when will you mate
with only these snails?

- A dating app?
- Yes.

Why do I need an app to meet a woman?

Just trust me on this.
Seek and you shall find.

Come on.

(Draw pattern to unlock)

Your pattern is just like you.

First, you download the app...

and input your personal information.

Then women will flock to you like crazy.

Gosh, I doubt that.

Let's take a photo for your profile
that doesn't show your face.

Hold on. If I'm doing this, I
want it to be done properly.

Hey, that's like asking
people to grade you poorly.

What's so bad about my face?

It's a little...

Take this hand to your beard.

- Like this?
- The other hand.

Gosh, you're annoying. Like this?

- Okay.
- Do me justice.

Women don't like beards.

In 2, 3.

My head is throbbing.

Gosh.

I see someone new joined the app.

(There are 2 new members.)

Let me see.

Will you be able to make
this headache vanish?

(Lee Dae Chan)

My head hurts.

He looks familiar though.

Where have I seen him?

Is he an employee here?

(Lee Dae Chan)

"In a franchise restaurant business."

Fried chicken?

Pizza?

A family restaurant?

Let's not mention the merge...

with Hwamin Party anymore.

The party members all agree,

but Taegyeong will pressure us.

We can't have a company dictate politics.

It should know its limits.

We must not let it control us.

A merge?

It could be a possibility
if our goals meet,

but Hwamin Party does not
share any of our ideals.

We will continue on our
path in the way we see fit.

Should we go outside for lunch?

The pork cutlet diner was good.

I'm fine. We can eat at the cafeteria.

You probably must've been shocked.

A little.

Jin Hyuk,

the anonymous post that went
up on the bulletin board...

Here you are, Jin Hyuk.
Let's head to lunch.

Sure thing. What were you saying again?

Nothing. I'll tell you later after lunch.

- That's him.
- Is that him?

No way.

- Let's see.
- He's quite handsome.

I can see that.

- On the bulletin board...
- I know.

I'm sorry, Mr. Park.

My stomach seems to be off.

Oh, sure. Getting some
rest would be better.

That's how sly he must be.

Isn't that Jin Hyuk?

He must be skipping lunch.

It'll become nothing if you just smile...

You downloaded the radio
application, right?

You should try downloading
a radio app on your phone.

They'll play a lot of good music.

You should listen to it if you're bored.

Why don't you ask your
favorite DJ to play a song?

I was thinking about running away
because the weather's so nice.

But I couldn't seem to muster
up my courage all by myself.

So I was just sitting absent-mindedly.

(But I couldn't seem to muster
up my courage all by myself.)

(So I was just sitting absent-mindedly.)

That's not very pleasant
to hear as the CEO.

Well, I'm thinking maybe it'd be safe...

if I ran away from work with the CEO.

Do you want to take the
rest of the day off...

and go to the art gallery in Hongjae-dong?

The weather is just so nice.

I need to take care of a lot of
important stuff, so I don't think...

I guess I could help you as
the CEO to safely skip work.

I recommend you to wear a jogging outfit...

rather than something elegant.

What a weird art exhibit.

Do you feel sick?

No, I'm okay.

Well, the thing is...

You can be honest with me.

I'm not really sick. It's just that...

Okay, there's nothing urgent today,
so you can go home and rest.

I'm sorry.

He's so lucky.

I have to go somewhere.

You can give me the car and get off work.

That's good. Your dad
actually wanted to see me.

He must've found out. Right, Mr. Nam?

You didn't do anything bad.
There's nothing to worry about.

My mom's probably going to call me.

See?

- Hello?
- Where are you?

I'm on a business trip.

- Where?
- I'm in Busan.

You're coming back today, right?

I'll have to check my schedule.

Are you seriously going to be like this?

I need to go to a meeting.
I'll talk to you later.

Do I also need to tell your
dad that I came from Busan?

Please tell him to tell
Mom that I'm in Busan.

Okay.

- Soo Hyun.
- Yes?

No one can stop flowers
from blooming in spring.

No matter how hard the
flowers try to resist,

they all end up blooming in the end.

Okay.

What... What just passed by? My goodness.

Jin Hyuk, is that you?

Hey, why are you home at this hour?

I'm sick. No, I mean, I
have an appointment.

What's he saying?

See?

I told you to wear a jogging outfit.

We need to walk a little,
so you can wear this.

No, it's okay.

Do I look cold to you? You
always offer me your jacket.

I'm just worried that you might be cold.

I thought we were going
to see an exhibition.

Why did you bring me here?

To see an exhibition.

I'm going to go.

I wasn't lying, was I?

Is this the art gallery
you talked to me about?

Yes. There are paintings.

And there's you who likes paintings.

And there's me who likes you...

who likes paintings.

There's no big deal to an art gallery.

Can you move your hand?

There are paintings all
the way until the end.

There are a lot of good ones.

I got fooled.

Let's walk.

It's time for you to listen
to Hongjae-dong's docent.

First of all,

this is a painting by Lee Jung Seob.

He is known as...

the most representative
Western-style painter in Korea.

I wonder if he cleans his room these days.

What... What's this?

- Mom.
- Goodness, you startled me.

Can you fix me a meal?

When did you come home?

I came to get some sleep
before I go to work tonight.

My goodness, you still look so sleepy.

- Jin Myung.
- Yes?

What do you think this is?

- Did you buy new shoes?
- No, your brother...

He must've gotten them for you.

- For me?
- Yes.

Try them on.

Or maybe not.

Yes, they might not be for me.

I like this painting the most.

I always look at this one
when I come out to exercise.

At first, I didn't get what
kind of painting that was...

because it's just filled
with so many squares.

But the more you look at it,
the more mesmerized you get.

It turns out, a lot of endurance
was needed to get those colors.

I like this painter's paintings as well.

His initial works are also nice.

Don't you really like the title?

"Where, in What Form, Shall We Meet Again?"

The title came from a poem
called "In the Night".

Among a multitude of stars

One stares down at me

Among a multitude of people

I stare up at that one star

Where, when, and as what will the two of us

You, one so warm, and me,
one so tender, meet again?

You know that poem as well?

I didn't know the poem.

But I found out about it later
because I liked the painting.

We met in Cuba totally broke...

and met again as an employee and a boss.

Isn't it interesting?

You say it so often, so I'm
starting to get used to...

hearing the word "we", a
first-person pronoun.

I wonder where and how we'll end up...

meeting again.

Not much will change from now.

The sun's about to set, and
we enjoyed all the paintings.

So let's go eat something delicious.

No, I should go now.

I really enjoyed the paintings.

You're busy, aren't you?

If you ask me that question with
that kind of look on your face,

what am I supposed to say?

"I guess we could eat together
if you're that disappointed."

Cheers.

It's so nice to have a drink
with you, Congressman Cha.

Don't call me that. Forget
all the titles between us.

Congressman Cha.

You're busy these days, right?

It's always the same.

How's Soo Hyun doing these days?

There's been some trouble,
but she looks good to me.

I saw the article.

My wife said something yesterday.

The man in that article...

is actually a new hire at Donghwa Hotel.

- Is that so?
- Yes.

- But I find him admirable.
- Why?

Someone posted a nasty article
of him and Soo Hyun...

on the anonymous bulletin board.

- Like what?
- There's no point in repeating it.

Soo Hyun was really in a bind.

But that man decided to step
up in front of everyone.

"I'm the man in that article."

"Ms. Cha isn't involved
with a strange man..."

"and she doesn't deserve all the gossip."

It made me feel so good.

It was commendable.

What did Soo Hyun say?

She didn't say anything,
but she's very thankful.

What if that young man gets
involved without thinking...

and makes things more
difficult for Soo Hyun?

We'll have to see, but he
doesn't look like the type.

Here.

Okay.

Here's your spicy moon snails.

- Have a drink.
- I'm okay.

- Come on.
- No, no.

Is your wife doing well?

It's always the same.

Welcome...

- Hello.
- Hello.

- I forgot my wallet yesterday.
- Right. It's over there.

No!

Why did you use a clothespin on it?

Do you know how much this is?

Seriously? I set it aside safely
not to get any sauce on it.

Do I deserve this kind of treatment?

Do you call this safe? You had it hanging!

You sure are a strange person.

You're the one who got drunk
and left it behind here.

Why would you say it like that?
You sound so cheap.

What are you doing here?

What's this?

Why are you two here together?

We went to see an exhibition, and
I brought her here for food.

I just got over my hangover,
but I'm craving more drinks.

Jin Hyuk, that woman...

I mean, this person. Can
you please get rid of...

this person you call your colleague?

I'm not an object. Why are you
telling him to get rid of me?

Are you talking casually to me?
You sound so cheap.

- Let's eat together, Ms. Jang.
- Forget it.

You should join us.

Are you Jin Hyuk's colleague too?

- Yes, I guess.
- I'm glad you're here.

I'll make you something delicious.

Please sit down.

Secretary Jang, your eyes will stick
together if you keep glaring.

It's none of your business.

The juniors at this office are all nice.

What juniors?

She looks a lot junior than you.

What makes you say that?

They're the same age, Dae Chan.

Okay, then. I'm off to the kitchen.

This place is jinxed.

There's a problem overall.

You two are more problematic!

Mr. Kim...

Fine. I'll be quiet.

It's like a moon came into my restaurant.

Your beauty is brightening
up the whole place.

Don't look at me, you're blinding me.

- Please take good care of...
- What's wrong with you?

Gosh.

Please take good care of Jin Hyuk.

He's naive.

You'll want to come back.

No way. I thought you were at the library.

I'm on my way home.

I came to buy some pens. What about you?

I was going to buy a journal.

Right, it's the new year soon.

Did you pick one?

Not yet.

How's this?

Does the color stand out too much?

It's nice. It'll be easy to find
since the color is so bright.

- I was looking at this too.
- Really? We were thinking alike.

I think this one is the best.

Yes.

Here, try this.

- Thank you for the food.
- Sure.

Thank you.

Jin Hyuk.

Did you eat dinner?

The boss never gives me food.

Isn't this person...

Isn't she...

Please say hello. This
is my little brother.

Nice to meet you.

They're Jin Hyuk's seniors from work.

You were the ramyeon guy?

What are you talking about?

How dramatic.

- We'll get going.
- Take care.

(Chan's Moon Snails)

(Chan's Moon Snails)

What's this?

Tell me.

Kim Jin Hyuk!

Why didn't you tell me?

She's such a precious customer.

If I knew, I would've given her...

some free noodles.

I never imagined you'd be the ramyeon guy.

What's that about ramyeon?

Be quiet. Your customers are here.

- I have to call Mom.
- No, don't.

Don't tell her. She'll worry.

- Why? What's between you two?
- Why?

Why?

- What's between you two?
- What's between you two?

- Hey, ramyeon guy.
- Hey, ramyeon.

I couldn't find anything
out of the ordinary.

His family is ordinary, and
there's nothing special.

It must feel awkward.

- It does.
- Do you want a drink?

- Excuse me.
- Yes?

I think I'm supposed to make you like me,

but I have no knack for such a thing.

You can tell me comfortably.

About what type of woman you like.

I want to take a guess.

I don't have a particular type that I like.

But I found my ideal type today.

Can you explain it more simply?

I'm not a stupid person,

but I'm not good in this field.

This is the type of woman I like.

A woman like Cha Soo Hyun.

Soo Hyun.

You won't be able to protect
him from everything.

You're making things harder for him
when he's just getting started.

I know.

I'm trying to run away, but I
keep ending up in the same spot.

It's like I'm standing in a maze.

Everyone around you is an
enemy, including your mom.

I wish you'll stop.

This is so frustrating, Mi Jin.

Because of the enemies?

Because of the timing.

What are you talking about?

If I...

felt this feeling...

when we were young, I
would've been so happy.

But now, at this age,

the whole world knows that I'm divorced...

and I'm so frustrated
because of the bad timing.

You really like him.

I don't know. But I keep...

wanting to know more about him.

It's a really messed-up timing.

Thanks for saying that.

Are you going to continue?

My life won't allow it.

I'm good at holding back.

I can't imagine what you're
going through right now.

I know you're not in Busan.

Don't lie to me.

I called the secretary's office,

and they said you didn't
go on a business trip.

Let's talk tomorrow. I'm driving.

I won't last a day as Cha Soo Hyun.

Time passes eventually
if you keep enduring it.

I don't know if they have delicious
bread and coffee in Sokcho.

I think it was delicious
because we were in Cuba.

It's fun when you spend your
daily life with a friend.

But becoming distant is still very painful.

That's why...

I'm trying to stop.

Soo Hyun. How dare you get yourself
involved in such a scandal...

with such a young man at that?

Have I ever done anything to offend anyone?

Ever since Dad started politics,
I couldn't even yawn at ease.

But once I got married off to that family,

I even had to be careful
not to breathe too loudly.

And even now, I'm still...

My feelings aren't based on curiosity.

Letting a person come into your heart...

I believe such a thing is meaningful.

Ms. Cha, I've made up my mind.

That's why I stepped up.

Jin Hyuk, I'm not joking.

You're saying what I want to say.

I...

should try to become
someone meaningful to you.

That's what I decided.

I told you. It's nothing if you just smile.

If the rumor about Ms. Cha is true,

what about the reputation of this company?

I guess she fell for a fresh young guy.

I should try to become
someone meaningful to you.

That's what I decided.

Can you see this drawing in the dark?

Jin Hyuk.

We've met again under the Naebu Expressway.

("Where, in What Form, Shall We
Meet Again?" by Kim Hwan Ki)

What shall we say...

is the reason we met again?

You have...

caught me.

Being here at this hour.

I'm usually good at holding back,

but here I am.

I read this in a book.

Having interest in someone...

is a fight between the certainty
and doubt of liking someone.

And that certainty and doubt cross
with each other like tides.

When that doubt fades away and
all that's left is certainty,

that's when love begins.

A fight...

Ms. Cha.

What if we...

leave these emotions...

of certainty and doubt to
fight with each other...

and find out if we like each other?

Why don't we...

say that...

we're now in a pre-relationship stage...

and met here again?

All right.

Let's say that...

we're now in a pre-relationship stage.

(Encounter / Boyfriend)

How about a romantic...

bike ride?

It's a first for me,

so I don't know what I'm supposed to do.

We'll each have one.

Take that thing off.

You're my mom and I'm your daughter.

Soo Hyun must've been lonely.

(Epilogue)

Where on earth am I?

I'm good at holding back.

I am.

Did you call for a gas refuel service?

- Yes.
- All right.
