PORTRAYED IN THIS DRAMA ARE FICTITIOUS

NEW BUILDING OWNER

Hello?

Hello. I'm the owner of DanBam in Itaewon,
Park Saeroyi.

I heard you took over the building.

So I'm calling you to say hello.

Okay.

What a coincidence.

Pardon?

It's me.

Jang Dae-hee.

Is this

the kind of beating you talked about?

Don't get the wrong idea.

CHAIRMAN JANG DAE-HEE

I heard business in that spot

is doing well these days.

And the value of the building has gone up,

so I just thought
that it'd be a good investment.

Come to think of it, it's funny.

What you did to take me down

ended up benefiting my company, Jangga Co.

This beating is quite cunning.

Don't you have a favor to ask of me?

Come to Jangga Co. tomorrow.

Is it Jangga?

EPISODE 8

- Yes.
- Jangga Pub?

They bought this building? Why?

I wonder too.

I'm so sick of them.

They just want to get rid of
someone they don't like.

So they just bought the building?

He is a man of huge caliber.

Jo Yi-seo.

You see,

I don't even understand
how this shameless woman has the audacity

to come here to get ice.

And I can't wrap my head around
why Jang Geun-soo works here...

Enough!

Hey.

Another word and I won't let it go.

I'll go and bring Yi-seo.

Gosh.

This is so awkward.

That rude punk. She has such a bad temper.

I'll go get more ice.

It's okay.

I'm sorry.

You and the girl named Yi-seo.

I didn't know you were so emotional.

- What?
- Nothing.

You two seem very close.

And she has a point.

I can't borrow ice from you guys
because I feel bad.

You should've gotten a part-timer
to do this. Why carry this yourself?

- Give me that.
- Gosh, it's okay.

Ask me for favors anytime
when we're not at work.

Any plans for the weekend?

I have tickets to a musical.
They're for VIP seats.

I have an extra ticket.
Do you want to come with me?

Do you like me?

What?

Yes.

I don't like you.

Why not?

Because of that prick, Park Saeroyi?

Because of Mr. Park.

- What?
- The man you hit with your car

and killed.

He was like a father to me.

So please...

Stop hitting on me.

Sir, he's here.

We're meeting quite often these days.

I agree.

CHAIRMAN JANG DAE-HEE

Let's hear it.

Are you here to argue with me?

So you wish to run the business yourself
at the spot?

You'd better sell it sooner than later.

To get the premium, that is.

Is that what this is about?

The premium...

It wouldn't be bad.

I know there's the Lease Protection Act,

but I can pretty much do anything I want
in this situation.

Who do you think will win
if this goes to court?

And how will you run the pub
during the trials?

You knocked down a wall
and made structural alterations.

I could ask you
to restore the space as well.

But those petty details...

I don't care.

Then what do you want?

My son, Geun-soo.

Why are you letting him work there?

- We were short-staffed.
- Let him go.

That's up to him to decide.

Does having my son to work for you

help you boost your self-esteem?

Sir.

I suppose you use your employees
to boost your self-esteem.

He said you're a strong person.

Therefore, I plan to take this opportunity

to teach my son

what it really means to be strong.

You bought the building
to show off your power?

That's not all.

I know how persistent you can be.

Even after you get kicked out,
you'll open up a pub somewhere else.

Am I right?

Then I'll buy that building as well.

I'm going to buy every building
that you rent out.

Is that

your definition of power?

I can easily control and have influence
over all your achievements.

Isn't that power?

Seeing you today

reminds me when we first met.

You got expelled
because you were too stubborn

to get on your knees.

Haven't you had enough?

Park Saeroyi.

What would I get for ruining your life?

What do you want me to do?

You started off on the wrong foot,
so let's fix that first.

Get on your knees and apologize.

If I get on my knees, will you allow me

- to continue my business?
- Of course.

Haven't you learned?

You can't get what you want
by being emotional.

If you kneel and sincerely apologize,

I'll put the past behind us.

And I'll no longer try
to take anything from you.

Money.

You think money is what I want?

There's too much involved between us

to think of it so lightly.

What I want out of this fight isn't money.

Because

I am

your enemy.

The day I got expelled
for refusing to get on my knees,

my dad told me
that he's proud to have me as a son.

Getting expelled? Getting kicked out?

You took

absolutely nothing from me.

In my opinion, power comes from people.

Because their trust gives me strength.

So Geun-soo told you
that I'm a strong person?

I'm glad to hear that.

I'll become

even stronger.

If your business fails,

you'll lose your people.

They're the reason why
I can continue to run my business.

Is that so?

So you want to keep going?

Yes.

That was your last chance.

You'll regret this.

You want to stop
this ill-fated relationship?

There's one way to stop.
Do you want to know what it is?

Get punished
for all that you've done wrong

and get on your knees.

Saeroyi.

Right. You work here during the day.

Yes. What about you?

What brings you here?

I met Chairman Jang.

We'll have to move out.

It's no big deal. Don't be so serious.

Are you okay?

I'm just upset that my plan

to make you quit
is going to take longer than expected.

You're such a fool.

Ms. Oh, the documents are ready.

It's time.

You should go.
I'll see you later at Itaewon.

Okay, I'll see you.

He bought the building?

I didn't know the old man
would be so aggressive.

Exactly.

What's going to happen
now that he can't run the pub?

The best choice is to receive a premium
before the lease is over.

The Saeroyi I know

will quickly find
another place for his pub.

How about asking him
to focus on my business instead?

A small business takes time to grow.

I was actually
planning to talk to him about that.

Is he doing okay?
He must be pretty discouraged right now.

He's fighting against Chairman Jang.

Deep down inside,
he's probably pretty upset.

But don't worry.

I've known Saeroyi for ten years,

and during all the ups and downs,

I've never once seen him discouraged.

Yi-seo!

You stormed out yesterday,
but you came to work early.

I don't want to talk to anyone
from the Jang family.

So will you stop talking to me?

Then just tell me.

I know it's because of Saeroyi.

Tell me what my family did to him.

Okay, fine.

You didn't know anything,
so you probably felt at ease.

What?

Do you really want to know
what your family did

to our boss?

Hey, you're here.

Hey, you're our manager.
You can't just storm out like that.

Our boss was really worried.

What?

Why would you be worried?
I'm not a little kid.

I thought I'd be the first to come,
but you're all here already.

Hey, Geun-soo.

So what you're going to do?

Let's eat first.

What do you need?

I heard you decided to buy

the building where DanBam
is doing business.

And?

May I ask you why?

Don't you know already?

I think I already know
what you're going to say.

But I'm not in a very good mood.

So choose your words wisely.

It was very unlike you.

It was unlike me?

Yes.

This may sound out of line,

but I've known you for over ten years.

You've made choices that sometimes

went against the social custom.

I clearly told you

that I'm not in a good mood.

Are you telling me that I was wrong
to kick him out like that?

You?

But even if those choices were wrong,

all those choices were made

to benefit the company.

But the purchase of the building
seemed like a very emotional decision.

- And that's not something...
- Enough.

That's enough.

You may leave.

CHAIRMAN JANG DAE-HEE

What I want out of this fight isn't money.

Because

I am

your enemy.

Do I really think

of that little kid

as my enemy?

Do you know what he said to me?

"My life has just begun!

And I'll do

everything I want to do."

That's what he said to me.

I'm so impressed.

Will you stop telling that story?
I've heard it enough.

Just have some beef jerky.

Why do you guys look so down?
Did you fight?

No.

It's no big deal.
Those two fight all the time.

Let's go for a second round.

Where should we go?

I'm not that interested,
but how about we go to a club?

A club? Sounds great. Let's go.

You must've had a lot of fun
the first time you went clubbing.

You think I had fun?
After I saw you that night...

- What?
- Let's just drop it.

What is it? Don't you want to go?

No, it's not that.
I was just wondering if it's fun there.

- I've never been.
- Yes, it's fun.

Okay.

- There we go.
- What are you doing?

Just watch.

Get up. Let me teach you
how to have fun at a club.

- Here?
- Yes.

First, you need to smile.

- Smile?
- Yes, smile.

Okay, that's good.
The next step is to show your presence.

- Okay.
- Step three is to get close.

- Sit back down.
- Sorry.

When you go clubbing in Korea,

it's best not to hit on too many women.

Then what should I do?

Your first choice is very important, okay?

"Is he hitting on me
after getting rejected by her?"

You don't want a woman to think that way.

What's going on? Tell me.

- It's nothing.
- You're so petty.

Are you still upset
because of what Yi-seo said yesterday?

You guys can go first.
I want to have a word with Geun-soo.

Okay, we'll see you there.

- Okay.
- Let's go.

Let's go.

What's wrong?

Is it because of Yi-seo?

- I heard everything.
- Heard what?

I heard

what my family did to you.

Why didn't you tell me?

Because it's between me

and your brother and father.

It has nothing to do with you.

I knew

you would think like that.

Because that's your principle.

Why did you offer to work

at DanBam?

I told you.

I wanted to make money.

To be honest,

it looked like

you needed

someone to lean on.

This might sound out of line.

And it might sound funny.

But I thought DanBam

and I might be able

to give you something to lean on.

Thank you.

- But I don't need you to pity...
- I'm not pitying you.

You just reminded me of

myself.

I wanted to get along with you well.

But I didn't think of how you would feel

after you found out everything.

I'm sorry.

No.

No, you don't need to do that.

You don't need

to apologize.

Geun-soo.

I'm really sorry
for what my family has done

to you.

They will

get punished no matter what.

- What do you think? Isn't it great?
- It looks so fun.

- Haven't you been to a club in Korea?
- No, I haven't.

You're pretty new yourself.

I'm a professional clubber.

Here.

Oh, right. My ID. Just a second.

You don't need to show me.

Look at yourself.
You're obviously old enough.

Okay.

Stop... Stop...

- Where are you from?
- What?

- I'm...
- Why are you asking him that?

People from Africa
and the Middle East can't enter.

Come on. This is Itaewon.
Don't be like that.

You're embarrassing us.

I'm just following the rules.

Where are you from?

I'm Korean.

Show me your passport.

But I'm Korean.

My dad is Korean.

Hey, we have a bugger.
Send someone to the entrance.

Why would you call him that
when he's right there?

Hey, don't explode.

Just leave while I'm being nice.

- And what if I refuse?
- Forget it.

They don't accept Africans.
Let's go somewhere else.

But I told you that my dad is Korean.

Let's go already.

I'm also Korean, okay?

How are you Korean?

- You have dark skin.
- Hey.

You...

You're so mean!

- Toni!
- Hey!

Toni, where are you going?

Toni!

My gosh.

- What's with him?
- They wouldn't let him in.

What? Why?

They don't accept Africans.

That's up to the owner.

He kept saying he's Korean.

He got upset
because I didn't take his side.

Hey, will you stop being so mean?

You've been getting on my nerves
since yesterday.

What?

He's obviously not Korean.

Yi-seo, that's enough.

Boss, you should stop too.

DANBAM PUB

YOU'RE SO PRETTY

DON'T GET HURT,
AND LET'S MAKE A LOT OF MONEY

What am I going to do?

YOU RACIST

YOU'RE AN EMBARRASSMENT TO OUR COUNTRY

YOU HUMILIATE KOREA

EAT SHIT

What the...

- What's on your jacket?
- What?

It's nothing.

What's your plan for the pub?

We'll have to move out.

- What's this?
- It's a decent firm.

You'll make money if you invest.

I don't have money to invest.

Why don't you just shut down the business?

It doesn't earn much money
compared to the investment.

And it's too risky.

And it'll be riskier
if Jangga Co. gets in the way.

This is an important period.

You should spend your energy
on receiving Ms. Kang's support.

But you need to move
and get ready to reopen.

It'll be too inefficient.

No.

If you invest your premium,
you'll make about...

I'm not going to invest.

What about Chairman Jang?

He warned that he'll buy
every building that you rent out.

You need to be realistic.

If he keeps targeting you,
your business will never succeed.

There's one way.

What's that?

I'm going to call Ms. Kang
and ask her to meet today.

No way.

I'm sorry.

-♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

DANBAM

You're here early.
You work too hard these days.

Hey, you guys.

Yi-seo.

What?

Can we talk?

DANBAM

What is it?

It's better to stay here

than to move to a new spot, right?

Why do you ask the obvious?

I plan

to quit working at Danbam.

That's what you wanted to say?

In return for going back home,

I'm going to ask my dad

to leave Saeroyi alone.

That would

be the best choice, right?

Will you please do that?

I'd be really grateful.

My gosh.

You really are mean.

After you dance with her a bit more

and give her a few compliments...

Aren't you thirsty?

I have a table over there
Do you want to drink with me?

That's all you need to say to her.

Then the night will be yours.

- Gosh, that's nuts.
- I'm so excited.

What?

- Hello?
- Aren't you cold?

Why do you look so sentimental?

I wanted to talk to you.

About what?

Chairman Jang bought the building
that I rented out.

Ho-jin already told me.
Do you need to borrow money?

No.

I'd like to withdraw one billion won
of my stocks in Jangga Co.

Then you won't have any influence
in the company.

I'm sorry.

This is completely different
from what Ho-jin had planned.

I thought you'd drop the pub
and focus on helping me.

It's not even a franchise
or a famous brand. Do you really need

to risk everything on that small pub?

It's precious to me.

Yes, but Chairman Jang easily took
that precious pub away from you.

The pub is all about

the people I work with.

So Toni didn't show up.

He's not even answering my calls.

Hey.

Why don't you apologize to Toni?

- Why would I?
- I knew you'd be like this.

Soo-ah, why are you carrying the beer?

Let me take them for you.

Thank you.

I made myself clear
that I hate you the other day.

But you keep showing up.

Where's Saeroyi?

You're here.

Hey, Soo-ah. You're here again.

I came to return the beer
I borrowed before.

Do you not want me to be here?

What? No one's here.

We had some customers earlier.
They just left.

I see.

Boss.

Yes?

Geun-soo has something to tell you.

DANBAM

What do you want to tell me?

Well...

I want to quit.

Why are you being like this?

What's the reason?

Nothing.

I just think it'd be better this way.

If the reason you're quitting

has something to do

with your father or brother,

can't you just stay?

I like you.
You're like my younger brother.

Geun-soo says he will talk to his dad

on condition that he quits his job here.

He will talk to his dad?
What does that mean?

So we can keep our business running here.

Even if we get the premium,
we will still have to find a new place

and pay brokerage
and interior design fees.

It costs hundreds of millions of won.

The best option is to stay here.

And we can do that with Geun-soo gone.

What do you think?

Of course I agree with it.

Geun-soo must've felt
uncomfortable working here.

You should understand how Geun-soo...

MANAGER
JO YI-SEO

What are you doing?

You don't deserve

to be the manager here.

But...

Saeroyi, wait.

This is my business.

Sympathy.

It's sympathy again.

It's...

It's just sympathy.

How long will you let
sympathy stand in your way?

You're always at the mercy of everyone.

Franchise? Leadership
in the foodservice industry?

How are you going to make it happen?

Forget about Jangga Co.

If you run your business like this,
you're no match for Jangga Co.

So you don't want to lose anyone.

Because DanBam is like a family.

Will you please wake up to the reality?

If you just fire a part-timer,
it'll all be over.

How much money do you want to lose
before you pull yourself together?

Business is all about profit...

For me...

If that's what business is all about,
I won't do it.

Boss, please...

If I were to become like him,
I wouldn't have started this.

Look what we are going through now.

We're about to get kicked out.

I just

don't want you to suffer a loss.

So what if we get kicked out

and it costs hundreds of millions of won?

Jangga Co. is my enemy.

It's only natural
that my enemy attacks me.

It was bound to happen anyway.
No big deal.

What makes me upset now

is you whom I thought was on my side.

I just said that for your sake.

- I was concerned about...
- Why?

Why do you have to fire

someone I care about for my sake?

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry I yelled at you.

I should go get some fresh air.

I get what you are saying.

But I'm the manager here.

No matter how idealistic you're being,

we will eventually get kicked out of here.

And we can't be sure
the same thing won't happen again.

I bet my life on you.

You have to take responsibility.

I need a realistic alternative.

You're an idealist.

That old man keeps his words
no matter what.

Even if you move to another place
with your precious employees,

the same thing will happen again someday

unless you have a realistic alternative.

That's the reason
I'm retrieving the investment.

To protect my people.

I won't be swayed
by Chairman Jang anymore.

You have no alternative.

I'll buy a building.

What are you talking about?

The realistic alternative.

It's a lie.

You know him.

Saeroyi never lies.

Can I talk to you for a moment?

MANAGER
JO YI-SEO

What do you want?

I want to give you some help.

Did you not hear
what my boss said earlier?

This is our business. Stay out of it.

No.

I mean about Saeroyi.

You work at DanBam
because you like him, right?

So?

If Saeroyi was a sly guy
who pursues practical interest,

would you still have liked him?

What's your point?

You know about

Saeroyi's past.

It counts only when he proves himself
in the opposite way

of what Chairman Jang has done.

And as you know,

it's a very hard thing to do.

For him

and for those who have to watch him do so.

But Saeroyi won't change.

I mean, no one can change him.

He's very strong.

If you really want to be on his side,

don't try to change him.

You should be ready to walk with him.

You should understand him.

So I guess you understand him very well.

Not really.

That's why I'm not on his side.

I should get going.

Why are you telling me all that?

Well...

I don't know.

I didn't feel like working.

Did you give up on him then?

No.

Because I'm confident.

I told you.

Saeroyi likes me.

You know what?

I really hate you.

Well...

I know that too.

Keep your chin up, Cutie.

If Saeroyi was a sly guy
who pursues practical interest,

would you still have liked him?

Just this once?

Just this once? Once and for all?
But there will be another time.

It will make things easy this once.

But you know what?

Those one times

might change your whole life.

Thank you for everything until now.

It's twice your pay.

If you like working here,

I want you to work twice as hard.

Can you do that?

REPUBLIC OF KOREA

YOU RACIST
YOU'RE AN EMBARRASSMENT TO OUR COUNTRY

Can't you do it right?

He's really strange.

It's strange,

but I like him.

Jang Geun-soo.

Oh...

Yi-seo.

I'm sorry.

You must be mad at me.

What can I do to make it up to you?

I'm not mad.

Yes, you are.

You have every reason to be mad.

I was heartless.

We've been friends for quite long.

You were always heartless.

You are also inconsiderate

and selfish.

I guess you were hurt a lot.

But I like you

the way you are.

I was being ambiguous before.

I think I should make myself clear.

I love our Boss like crazy.

I'm trying to be nice to you
when you're just a headache

because I want to stay by his side.

So

don't stand in my way.

I should go.

YONGSAN-GU OFFICE

I'm telling you.

How many times must I say it?

I can't retrieve personal information
without his consent.

He's not a stranger. He's my dad.

Take a look at this.

You can't prove the paternity
only with a picture.

You should bring
the family relation certificate.

Then I'll look into it for you.

I went to a club in Itaewon
with the employees of DanBam last night,

but we were denied admission

just because one of our employees,

Toni was from Africa.

I can't believe there's racism
in this day and age.

- This is crazy.
- Itaewon is an international town.

I resent all those racists.

This is embarrassing.
It's a disgrace to our country.

I can't believe it still happens.

It's just skin color.

You're here.

Hey.

Hey, did you do this?

Do what?

Well...

I did.

You said messing with your people

is just like messing with you.

So I made up my mind.

I will just kill those who mess with you.

Hey, Yi-seo. You sound so cool.

Where's Toni? Is he here yet?

Will you try calling him?

What? Hey.

- Well...
- Toni.

I WENT TO A CLUB IN ITAEWON

I'm Korean.

You know what?

You don't look Korean.

Why do you call yourself Korean?

What is she doing?

My dad is Korean.

My dad came to Korea to meet my grandma.

And I came to Korea to find my dad.

Once I find him,

I can acquire Korean nationality.

I'm Korean.

But the fact is that you didn't
acquire Korean nationality yet.

It means you're not Korean.

- Yi-seo.
- I'll

help you find your dad.

Yi-seo.

I'll do anything to help you.

I'm sorry

that I didn't take your side.

I have a stomachache.

I need to go to the restroom.

Gosh.

It feels so warm.

Spray painting was so childish.

You should use your brains.

Gosh.

Wait.

Give me back my name tag.

This?

Put it on me.

It's really hard
to deal with people like you.

But I'll try to understand.

Thank you.

Yi-seo, you're all grown up.

This is the last one
about Jiin Department Store.

Okay.

And

a new tenant has moved
into the building where DanBam was.

He must've had no choice but to move out.

We have to nip it in the bud.

You should buy the building
he moved in too.

Do you know where he moved to?

Well...

He bought a building at Gyunglidan-road.

What?

DANBAM

Please take a look.

Here?

- A little more to the left.
- Here?

- I think it's done.
- Left?

All right.

Cool. You're a man of your word.

- We still have a long way to go.
- She's right.

Hello. We opened a new pub here.

Did you move in here?

Hello, ma'am. Nice to meet you.

Why did you buy this building?

You are no good judge of buildings.

Why?

All the businesses here
have gone bust every year.

My gosh.

Call me if you need anything.

- Yes, ma'am.
- Oh, dear.

DAILY INSTALLMENT LOAN

What did she say?

All the businesses here have failed.

The pub is all about

the people I work with.

People.

I told you. Business is all about people.

It's not like we're a charity.
This is business.

We need to make a profit.

We should see it at large.

Who would trust a company
that's inconsistent?

It's all over once we lose
the confidence of people.

Like father, like son.

He retrieved the investment

and bought a building?

I was going to visit you to apologize.

I'm surprised you came all the way here.

Apologize?

About the investment I retrieved.

I caused trouble to your schedule.

I told you before.

One percent. Two billion won.

They are just numbers.

The mission I gave you was
to make Chairman Jang go to your pub.

It wasn't the money.

Do you still want me on your side?

Of course.

Chairman Jang and Jang Geun-won.

Your goal is to get back at them, right?

We should have the same goal
to plan something together.

Are you sure revenge is all you want?

Revenge.

Maybe after that.

What I want

is freedom.

Freedom?

I want my words and acts to have power

so no one can mess with me and my people.

I don't want to be swayed
by anyone or any injustice.

I want to live a life

where I make my own decisions

and I don't have to pay for my principles.

Gosh.

It's just an ambiguous pun of an idealist.

I like it though.

The freedom you talked about...

Let's enjoy it together.

Okay.

The power and people he talked about...

You took

absolutely nothing from me.

I couldn't take anything from him?

What?

As I grow older,

I'm becoming pettier.

A building owner?

In the end, you keep moving forward.

I'm not even surprised.

We should wait and see.

I heard businesses at that spot
has failed every year.

You don't seem worried though.

Well...

Because I have my people.

I keep on going believing in them.

I'm jealous.

What?

Jealous of what?

You seem to care about them a lot.

- That's because...
- You really need her, right?

I mean, Yi-seo.

On your way

to make me unemployed.

You need her, right?

Chairman Jang,
the guest you're expecting is here.

Okay. Let her in.

Are you expecting someone?

It hasn't been a long time since she came,

but I can't imagine

DanBam without Yi-seo.
