Original subtitles

Who is here?

Han Yugyeong. She's with Jeongeun.

[Episode 12]

You're the producer of this movie?

You said you'd be successful.

None of this is my money.

This is just the beginning.

I can't believe you're still acting.

Didn't you run away back then?

I'm still here.

Director Choi must have called you

because he couldn't forget you.

I'm putting my life on the line for this movie.

I won't cast anyone.

I'm an actress. I play extra roles.

All the more reason I can't cast you.

People can't find out about

what happened before.

Fine.

That baby...

What happened to her?

What baby?

Is she living with that old woman?

I don't know.

Why are you asking me about

your daughter and your mom?

You said you'd look after her.

I was too busy making ends meet.

Jeongeun!

What's wrong with Jeongeun?

The producer, Han Yugyeong, said no.

It's complicated as it is.

Do you have to be stuck in the middle?

It's complicated enough that

she's Lee Aerin's daughter

and a single mother.

I guess so.

I'm sorry.

Look who's here.

I thought he was in hiding.

I asked him to come.

He's not hiding anymore.

Why did you avoid Jeongeun?

It must have been nice to see her.

I thought I should see you first.

Do you want to come up?

I have some work to do.

No, go ahead.

Let's have a cup of coffee.

You're selling fabric?

You've aged a bit.

Are you married?

I didn't have time.

You look the same.

What did you say

when you ripped up your plane ticket?

You said you'd get back on your feet

and make me regret rejecting you.

Was this it?

Did I say that?

Oh, I did.

I said everything

I did was because of you.

I hung on so childishly.

That was so long ago.

I kept it all closed up.

Open it and see what comes out.

No.

No matter how much I think about it,

there was no cause for what you did to me.

I don't want to be disappointed

with you anymore.

I'm just going to look forward.

I don't want to look back.

That's good.

What's a fabric seller doing at a film company?

I don't want to see you.

I guess you can just close up

your heart if you want to.

You were hiding when I was away.

Why did you show up and upset me?

I work at the market.

We have no reason to meet, so don't worry.

Bye.

Mom's here.

Hi, mom.

- Did you have a nice day? / - Yes.

Why did you come back so early?

It didn't go well?

No.

You wasted a day's work for no reason.

I know.

Why didn't you tell me she's the producer?

How did you know?

I saw an interview on cable TV.

She's back?

Yes.

She won't give you the role?

I couldn't do it if they offered it.

Why not? You wanted the role.

Gangu wrote it with you in mind.

You waited years for this opportunity.

You can't lose it like this.

She asked about you and the baby.

I lied and said I didn't know.

I didn't look back and took off.

Why? You didn't do anything wrong.

You shouldn't run. She should.

Do you know how I survived in this area?

I filmed a movie even a few days

before I gave birth.

I tied up my stomach,

so it wouldn't show.

After I lost my baby,

I went to film again the next day.

You challenged a leading role

without that much in mind?

What are you going to say if a reporter asks?

Are you going to say you're my daughter?

Will you say you're a single mother?

I won't hide it like that.

That's your style.

I don't want to start like that.

It's because you didn't have to

face that situation yet.

Say that after you start.

Don't lose this opportunity.

Fight Han Yugyeong and anyone else

who gets in the way and win.

Seo Jeongeun is alright for a supporting role.

A supporting role is important, too.

Only class A actors get investments.

I had her in mind as the leading character

when I wrote the scenario.

Forget about your personal feelings.

It's my movie. I'm the director.

I want to cast her.

How can you say no without even

discussing it with me?

Check the schedules of top actresses

and send them the scenario.

Yes, ma'am.

Who says you can give

my scenario to anyone you want?

Don't.

Okay.

Listen...

Get me the director's contract.

Your scenario? I bought it.

$500,000 of my money went into it.

I procured $3 million and

we still need $2 million more.

It's still my movie.

Fine. The investors will decide.

What are you doing?

It looks like we're moving.

I'm sorry. I'll clean it up quickly.

Let's eat first. It's already past seven.

I'll cook dinner.

Oh!

I'll wait. Take your time.

Are you going to be like this?

I'm only putting up with this

because you're pretty.

Hello?

It's me.

I'm sorry.

I forgot.

It's time to eat. Come out.

Well...

Hurry up. I'm hungry.

I have to finish the dishes and

make dinner.

Okay. I'll see you at home later.

You stood me up 17 years ago.

How could you do that again?

I'm sor...

I must be crazy.

How can I think of dating in my situation?

Couldn't you come up with

a better excuse than doing the dishes?

Why didn't you go home yet?

I heard you met Han Yugyeong.

News sure travels fast.

I have a lot to tell you.

Go ahead.

How many shares did Choi Jongdal gather?

About twenty including those in

someone else's name.

All he needs is some of

Lee Yeongguk's shares.

Yeongguk isn't a fool.

He has all the evidence of

Mr. Choi's corrupt dealings.

He's spending a lot of money

to launch a new brand.

If that doesn't go well,

he'll lose the film company.

The one to make a mistake first will collapse.

Then you'll grab it, right?

It's yours to start with anyway.

Why does Han Yugyeong want to

get involved in all this?

She invited Choi Gangu to New York

and went to Cannes with him.

I thought they might get married,

but she took him hostage

and started a film company.

She said she's going after Heaju Pictures.

That video...

There's a fax from Heaju Fashion.

They want an estimate if we're

confident of supplying the fabric.

Is it possible?

There are advantages and disadvantages.

The largest problem is securing

unprocessed fabric.

- Send an estimate. Let's try it. / - Okay.

Lady Ann. Is this the new brand?

It's Jang Jiyeon's logo.

Chairman Lee went to Paris to get her.

She's supposed to be the best.

Are you going to do it? What if it's a trap?

He's asking for a fight. I can't avoid it.

You don't have to feel too sorry.

I saw a movie thanks to you and

I didn't have to pay for dinner.

Thanks for the flowers.

But let's break up.

Let's not date anymore.

We didn't date once yet.

I must have been crazy.

What can I do in my situation?

What can't you do?

I'm a mom.

On top of all that,

I wanted to play a leading role.

Mom and Gangu both said I couldn't

start if I didn't hide my private life.

I don't want to do that,

but I really want to play that role.

So, you don't have time to date

because of your work and family?

A woman should say no a couple times.

It makes her more charming.

When did you learn how to do that?

You're even more charming now.

I'm not kidding.

Good.

Say no two more times. I'll be even nicer.

I'm telling you I'm not kidding.

I forgot this isn't the time for me to be dating.

Because you're a mom?

Because you take care of your mother?

Because you have an impossible dream?

When you were 24 and alone,

you weren't that charming.

You were a crybaby and you got conned.

You were nothing.

What I fell for is the person you are now.

You as a set with Hanbyeol and Myeongja.

You're no big deal without them.

Do you understand?

I like everything you have.

Everyone will recognize that

some day like I do now.

You'll act better than before now.

Have confidence and wait, kid.

Move!

Gather around.

I guess you're desperate to come

to another film site.

What are your conditions?

I'll meet them.

I don't want to play a mom.

Don't force it.

Is there another reason?

Is it Choi Jongdal?

Leave us.

You're smart. You're right.

He would rather ruin his son than

see his succeed with another producer.

You'll have to beat Choi Jongdal

if you want to succeed.

Let's do scene 21.

Okay, everyone in place.

I'll see you again.

I guess you really are playing extra roles.

Do you know her?

Oh, it's you.

I don't believe this.

I have to go.

Look at you.

Is this the best you can do?

Don't insult the people I work with.

I abandoned them. What could you do?

And yet, I have doubts.

What doubts?

You're a fool.

You could be supporting

them with a daily wage of $50.

That would be so you.

What if I am?

Are you going to thank me and take over?

Why are you curious after 6 years?

Jeongeun, come on!

Go on.

Let me say this again.

You can't be in my movie.

You can't play a leading role.

Director Choi chose me.

I'm not the fool I used to be.

Don't take me lightly.

What did you do to your face?

Something went wrong with my facial.

Leave your face alone!

You can't film like that!

- Assistant director! / - Yes, sir.

Get a substitute.

I'm calling right now.

Oh, boy.

I can't stay for more than 2 hours.

I'm in a hurry, too. This is going to air today.

Should I pick one of the extras?

Is there anyone?

- Captain! / - Yes.

Jeongeun, there are a lot of lines,

but you can do it, right?

Sure.

Get up.

She's our ace.

She can speak lines.

Do you know her?

- Hurry up. Get her ready. / - Yes, sir.

Have her wear this outfit.

Come back when your face is better.

Thank you.

It's only lunch time, so just have one glass.

What's with this attitude?

You're never this warm.

I'm not bubbly enough to act

cute in the president's office.

You've gained experience in Hollywood.

What's the use?

I ran into a wall as soon as I got back.

You told Seojin not to appear in

your son's movie?

No. Seojin never listens to us.

I hear things.

Gangu might have left out of spite,

but he's my son.

I would help him.

Mediate in between.

Mediate?

Don't you know what mediating is?

Let me know if Gangu has any difficulties.

Without him knowing, of course.

What do you want to do

without him knowing?

Everything is about money.

We could have dinner once in a while

and discuss matters.

Investors pull out if they hear rumors.

They're not very trustworthy.

She didn't answer.

Do you think she can see through

your dark intentions?

You know who the easiest people to trick are?

Ones who think they're smart.

What about him?

Lee Yeongguk and Lee Yeongjo.

Is it war or reconciliation?

We'll see.

Let's just sit back and enjoy the free ride.

Do you think my work is a joke?

Do you know how much I'll lose

if I ruin one season's business?

Will you take responsibility

if my business is ruined?

I'm sorry I can't drink with you.

You're smiling?

This isn't the part where you smile.

I don't know about summer sales,

but the fabric you ordered

can be manufactured.

Take a look at the samples before you decide.

Who are you?

Ms. Jang, I'm sorry I changed the fabric

supplier without discussing it.

He's my brother.

Your brother?

Since when was everything

done by family at Heaju?

He's independent.

I should do this much for

my dead grandfather's sake.

Why are you mentioning him?

You're making me feel sorry.

I'll decide after I see the samples.

I don't know how large your company is,

but can you make 100,000 yards in 20 days?

The fine is $10,000 a day.

Can you meet the deadlines?

We'll give it a try.

Get the unprocessed fabric and focus on dye.

Will it be possible?

We never received an order

over 30,000 yards before.

Things are hectic as it is

because of export to Japan.

How will we procure funds?

Let's start and see. Move quickly.

You mean Lee is the grandson

of the former Heaju Group chairman?

Oh, boy. Why didn't you tell us?

How can you keep that from us?

Really. You made us such fools.

It was my idea.

Still, how can he lie to me? I'm his partner.

Your business grew for 6 years thanks to that.

I can't believe you didn't tell us.

How could you?

You didn't know either?

I knew him since he was little.

I don't believe the two of you.

Jeongeun, what about you?

Miryeon!

Do you think it's alright to ask

another man's wife out at 10 p.m.?

I'm sorry. It's only early evening for me.

I didn't even get a chance to eat yet.

You're really a manager?

Do you need any people? What about me?

What about the salted oyster

home shopping business?

I'm pretty, I talk well, I'm quick

and I can act.

I'd make a perfect manager.

I could do it if you can.

You fail.

Don't turn the channel.

She's one of our actresses.

Good, good.

I haven't been able to monitor

I haven't been able to monitor

That's Jeongeun!

Huh?

She's working with Seojin?

When did she start that?

The manager doesn't go to film sites.

That's for the road manager.

Forget it.

If you're Seojin's manager,

I'll be Seo Jeongeun's manager.

You pass.

You have to tell him the truth.

You go ahead.

I have to stop by somewhere.

Cut.

Good job.

Jeongeun, come here.

The writer asked your name

after watching the show yesterday.

- I think you'll get more lines. / - Oh...

No way.

She's not even a main character.

You'll stand out more if she

plays an evil role well.

Okay, where's the next location?

Thank you for recommending me.

I didn't recommend you.

Jeongeun.

It's me! Ogenki desu ka!

Miryeon!

Miryeon!

It's been so long.

I'm home.

Come in.

You rented a room here?

Mom!

Did you have fun?

Who are you?

Oh...

Aunt Miryeon. She's my friend.

Oh, hello.

Hi.

She's your daughter? She's seven?

Yes.

So, you were pregnant when you said you

were doing regional filming and told

everyone at work that you got married.

Now it all makes sense.

What about her dad?

You're an unwed mother?

I envy you.

I got a divorce because

I couldn't have a baby.

What?

Really?

It will take too long to explain.

Don't tell Hansu.

I pretended to be happy because of my pride.

I could have done that.

Here.

Who is she? The owner?

She's my mom.

Oh! I'm so happy for you.

Hello, I've been friends with her

since she was twenty.

You look...

Lee Aerin?

Have a nice time.

Now, we have the right number of players.

No, we don't. We need one more person.

You mean a daughter-in-law?

Do you have anyone?

I'm working on it.

I think she'll be good at this.

You have someone?

Mom, don't worry.

I scored.

What's the score?

Did you just play cards for 6 years?

Where did you learn to play?

That's 7 points and double.

Give me $1.40 each.

Take it all. Rich people can be so scary.

What did Yeongguk say?

He told me to supply fabric.

He did? He's going to help you?

What are you going to do?

What would grandfather have done?

I have to go in a lion's den to catch it.

Aren't there any other colors?

They're so dark.

Excuse me.

Don't bother me and leave.

I have your samples.

Who...

It's just me.

- Send this to the lab. / - Sure.

It won't pass if there's a single flaw.

Okay.

- Ms. Jang, it's the lab. / - Thanks.

Yes.

Yes, okay.

They all passed.

I just have to meet the deadline now?

I'm sorry about last time.

I'm kind of like that.

I know.

Buy me some makkeolli when we're done.

Start production now.

You're lucky.

If it wasn't you, who was it?

It wasn't me. I'm your friend.

Look me in my eyes.

Stop it.

Cut!

Good job.

Director, I love you.

Why are you sleeping in the car?

I must have fallen asleep.

It's dangerous to drive when you're tired.

Why aren't you sleeping properly?

Is that the only thing you can say

after seeing me in 15 days?

Are you alright?

You're much prettier in person.

- Did you see the show? / - Yes.

I saw those clear eyes and

sexy shoulder lines.

Director Jang, contact the managers.

Why isn't anyone calling?

You sent the scenarios, right?

Well...

What is it? Tell me.

Director Choi told us not to send the scenarios.

So, you ignored me and you didn't send them?

Who's paying you? Me or the director?

Just fire us.

What?

This is why we were fired

from Heaju Pictures.

You'll take his side, huh?

Where is he?

He went to an investment company

with the audition video.

She's new, but she has power.

Young stars won't play a single mother.

I'd like to succeed with real acting.

If you trusted my scenario,

I'd like you to trust my choice, too.

What is it?

She's calling the investors and

telling them not to listen to you.

What?

Director Choi is a bit naive because

he only did independent films.

He has good intentions,

but we can't use a new actress.

I'll get a top star. Don't worry.

Do you have to do that?

You started it.

Wait.

We couldn't get anything done for

a month because you were fighting.

Do you want to flip a coin

or do you want to set a time period?

I'll get someone in three days.

Go with Jeongeun if I can't.

Fine.

I have to go.

Where is she going now?

Her schedule said hospital.

Hospital? Is she sick?

She lives alone.

She probably takes good care of her health.

Congratulations on your total recovery.

Your old nurse asked when

your appointment was.

I thought she'd come, but she didn't.

Really?

I hope I can see her when

I come for my fall checkup.

Grandmother!

- Grandmother. / - Sh.

Go wash your hands.

I'll get you a snack.

Yes, grandmother.

Why did you lock the gate?

Sungeum, if anyone calls asking for me...

Nobody calls asking for you.

Tell them you don't know where I am.

Don't worry.

Who would be looking for you?

Is it because of Jeongeun?

You don't want reporters to know?

Yes. Just tell them you don't know

anything at all.

Okay, I got.

It wouldn't do her any good

for reporters to find out.

Hello?

It's Yungyeong.

What do you want?

Can we talk?

Did you have a drink?

I'm busy.

I saw Yun Myeongja today.

I guess you're curious about her, too.

Where did you see her?

Why are you surprised?

Can't I see her?

I followed her, but I lost her.

Where?

She got surgery at Hanguk Hospital.

I asked her nurse when

her appointment was.

Why?

Did you miss her?

Did you feel sorry?

You abandoned everyone and left.

What do you want to know now?

A criminal always goes back to

the scene of the crime.

Tell me.

She looked really comfortable.

I guess nobody recognizes her.

Where does she live and

who does she live with?

She looked so healthy.

What do you want?

Do you want to tell her

and live with her?

Do you think I'm a fool like you?

There's nothing I can do.

I have to tell what I did to

tell her I'm her daughter.

The baby? It's the same.

She's not a baby anymore.

Why should I confuse her?

There's nothing I can do

even if I find out where she is.

Then why are you drinking?

Why did you do something you'd regret?

Do you know what Yun Myeongja said?

She said she couldn't stop.

She knew she was doing wrong,

but couldn't stop.

You don't understand because

you never did anything wrong, right?

What's the use of thinking about that?

You can't change what you did.

Don't show off.

I had men come here,

but you're the only female guest I ever had.

Yugyeong and Jeongeun knew

each other for a long time, huh?

There seem to be ill feelings.

Do you have any against me?

My father is why you were

kicked out empty-handed.

My grandfather was mean to your father first.

Let's end that in our generation.

Yeah.

I heard about your family,

but let's end that, too.

I don't know what that is, but thanks.

But I won't concede Jeongeun.

I proposed to her.

I can't concede either.

Why aren't you married yet?

Is it because you couldn't forget

that guy who bought you noodles?

You didn't see him once while

he was hiding at the market?

You're drunk. Go to sleep.

I'm going home.

I can't sleep yet. Let's talk a bit more.

I really hated you a lot.

Why do you hate me so much?

Because you know all my faults.

I hated myself more when I saw you.

It's nice that you gave up on the baby

and Yun Myeongja, too.

We're the same.

Aren't you curious where your baby is

and how she's doing?

Wretch.

Do you have to ask?

Where is she? Is she growing up well?

Can I think such things?

Only people who qualify can do that.

I feel much better now that I said that.

Do you want to know one more thing?

It wasn't just my baby and my mom

who I abandoned.

I abandoned the baby's father, too.

He doesn't even know he's a father.

What?

You said he was married.

You said his wife wouldn't raise the baby.

You lied to me?

I barely got over him.

Tell me.

Here, drink this.

Get up.

Are you alright?

I should go.

I can't remember anything.

You had a lot to drink.

Where's the bathroom?

Over there.

Where do you live?

Not far away.
