Ms. Kang.

Mr. Bong.

You forgot to take the corporate card.

Oh, right.

Is this everything?

Get something else too.

Ms. Hwang.

Hello.

Why are you two together when everyone else is going home?

We came to pick up dinner because we're working late today.

Well, I'll head back first.

Wait.

What brings you here?

What do you think?

I'm also here to pick up food for dinner.

- Here? - Yes.

Thanks to someone, I've discovered this is a decent place to get food.

Can you help me with this?

What's wrong with this?

Last time, you kept complaining and said you wouldn't eat it.

It's not something I'd normally get.

But I kept craving it for some strange reason.

Like someone I know.

Well, I'm going to have one more.

Would you like one as well?

Then you should practice alone with it. Practice makes perfect.

I should get back.

Wait up. Why did you leave like that?

I just wanted to give you two some privacy so that you can talk.

What?

Why is that necessary?

You two seem to be quite close,

so I should give you some privacy.

"Quite close"?

You mean, me and Ms. Hwang?

Why do you think that?

The other day, I saw you two in the car...

Never mind. Let's just leave it at that.

Wait.

Are you jumping to conclusions again based on what you saw the other day?

Am I wrong?

I helped her put in her eye drops because something went into her eye.

Sorry?

Let me make this clear.

There's nothing going on between me and Ms. Hwang.

You assumed the same thing about my sister as well.

Do you have a knack for jumping to your own conclusions or what?

Well, anyone would've assumed the same in that situation.

You're ditching me again?

You're here.

It looks like a real studio now with the paintings on the wall.

The opening is in a few days.

I'll send you a painting. You can come then.

Here, the document I told you about over the phone.

You'll stop meddling in things related to my studio, right?

That hurts my feelings a little.

I wouldn't call it "meddling". I'm just showing my interest.

Neither makes me comfortable.

By the way, is that your dinner?

Let's go. I'll buy you dinner.

It's okay. I'm tired. I'm just going to go home and get some rest.

Then I'll drive you home.

It's fine. Let's go.

Is this everything?

Get something else too.

What do you like?

Oh, this is good.

Who is that woman? He was so sweet to her.

Funnily enough, it keeps getting on my nerves.

Can't you check in on your mom and say hi when you get home?

Mom, I'm so tired these days.

Is work still keeping you that busy?

Right, when are you going to invite me to your studio?

You'll come regardless anyway.

That's true. I've already picked out an outfit.

Seon Hwa, I texted you. Did you get my message?

You never texted me back.

You made me wait even offline.

You're the first woman to ignore my text.

Is something wrong? I was worried.

I did get your text.

I see. Then why didn't you text me back?

I'm sorry,

but keeping in touch with you like this makes me uncomfortable.

Come on. Don't be like that.

I got you a gift. When are you free?

A gift? That will make me even more uncomfortable.

I'm sorry, but please don't contact me again.

Sorry.

I guess this is what it feels like to be rejected by a woman.

As of today, I can no longer say I've never been rejected by a woman.

Gosh.

Why do you look so serious?

This is all your fault.

Why did you tell me to give her the moisturizer?

She told me to never contact her again.

Don't tell me you told her you got her a gift...

and asked her, "Can I please see you?"

I did. What's wrong with that?

Oh, boy. You really...

don't know women, do you?

Come here. Quick!

Why?

You play "woman 1". I'll be "man 1".

Ask me why I'm so late. Go.

- Action. - "Woman one"?

Why are you so late, honey?

- I'm really mad at you. - Hey, here.

This too.

I found them on the street.

Don't be stingy with them. Slather them on.

Your skin...

deserves it.

I'm off.

See? See that?

It'll make her fall hard for you instantly.

Il Nam, please!

("Autumn Prayer")

"In autumn, let us pray."

"Wait until the leaves fall..."

"and satiate me..."

"with my humble mother tongue."

"In autumn, let us love."

"Let us choose only one person."

"For the most beautiful fruit,"

"this fertile moment"...

Dad.

Hi, you're home.

Why are you so surprised?

I wasn't.

What's that book of poems? Do you read poems too?

Well, a customer left this in the taxi.

Yeo Ju, what do you think about this poem?

"In autumn, let us love."

Why is it talking about love? It makes me cringe.

My little daughter doesn't know what love is yet.

"In autumn, let us love."

Just drink it. You drink this often.

Gosh, why does his face keep popping up in my head?

Kang Yeo Ju, don't you have any pride?

Yeo Won, why are you yawning so much from early in the morning?

I didn't get to sleep much because of work for the past few days.

Kids, I made this myself.

I ground some beans.

So drink it up.

You guys should drink this too.

I added some salt, so it should taste fine.

Okay, Mother.

I feel this every time I drink this, but this tastes like nothing.

- I've finished it, Grandma. - Goodness.

I don't like it, Grandma.

It's because you're not used to this flavor, Yeong Jae.

I knew you wouldn't like it, so I prepared this.

Here. Try it again.

It's tasty.

Mom, what did you just add to the bean water?

I added a spoon of honey, that's all.

Gosh, you seem to enjoy it now.

I added honey to this when I was young too.

Honey, I'm going to go to Su Ji's studio today.

Will you join me?

I have a prior engagement today. You should go on your own.

I'll go another time.

But how are you going to make kimchi this year?

Maybe we should buy kimchi from this year like others.

You know I don't eat kimchi made by strangers.

You should make it now, so we have enough time...

to ferment it during the winter for us to enjoy it next spring.

- You better hurry up. - All right.

I'm not sure if Trang will be able to make kimchi though.

Thanks.

Look. She can even make scorched rice water.

She'll be able to make kimchi if you tell her.

Hey, making kimchi is a different story though.

It's not even easy for Koreans.

Soaking napa cabbage in salt and making the sauce is no joke.

Wait. How do you say kimchi in English?

What kind of question is that? Kimchi is just kimchi.

You're right.

Then how will I explain "making kimchi"?

Trang, can you make a lot of kimchi?

I know. Making kimchi.

What do you know?

Not anyone can make it.

Now that we have a foreigner housekeeper,

making kimchi has become an issue.

Be careful with what you say though.

Watch what you say all the time.

My gosh, I can't even talk freely at home?

She doesn't really understand what I'm saying anyway.

- We're going to school. - All right.

See you later.

What is this sound?

What are you doing now?

Buying meals outside costs a lot.

I made a lunchbox to save up.

Mother only made it for I Nam.

Why would Mom make a lunchbox for a jobless son-in-law?

If you like hiking so much, go and come back before lunchtime.

Did you hide some jewels in the mountains or something?

Or did you meet a woman while hiking?

Honey, how could you say such nonsense?

If you want to work out that badly, hand out some flyers for me today.

Later. I'll hand them out when I come back.

- Will that be all right? - That will not be all right.

I said I'll hand out the flyers when I'm back.

- Give it here. - Will you really be like this?

Ji Yeong, why did you throw away food? What a waste.

If I could do whatever I want now, I'd throw you away, not food.

You just make my blood boil.

Alice, what do you think?

Isn't it just amazing?

Ms. Hwang, if you put a designer bag on this work,

it could debase the message about upcycling.

Not at all.

This work conveys that no matter how much meaning...

we try to put into "upcycling", it can't beat materialism.

Even the angel who looks at this work from the skies...

will notice my designer bag before it notices the bottles.

Still, this is a bit...

I thought creating dynamic wings with recycled material...

would give hope to the present age.

I don't write fairy tales.

I'm a pop artist,

which means I should have a unique perspective.

- Do you get it? - Yes, Ms. Hwang.

So...

Among the main winter beverages we sell,

there is black honey dates tea, right?

How about we make black sugar soy milk...

making use of our current flavoring technology?

My family sometimes drink soybean water with honey.

And the kids love it too.

Black sugar soy milk?

That is actually a good idea.

The second line of black sugar beverages?

I got a good feeling about this, Mr. Bong.

It's surely different from the grain-based drink...

our competitor will release.

I'll discuss this with Mr. Kim.

This way, please.

You even opened a studio within a year since your debut.

You're impressive, Su Ji Hwang.

Your work is also compelling.

You think so?

Then I'll look forward to your compelling articles...

just like my artwork.

I'm Choi Yoon Jin, an art critic.

Do you remember me?

I saw you at the exhibition in Brooklyn.

That's right.

- It's good to see you. - It's great to see you again.

I love your work.

Thank you.

Let's have lunch together.

- It's on me. - Thanks.

Please come this way.

Why do you always eat lunchboxes?

You should sometimes go out and eat with the other teammates.

I don't like to eat out unless it's the tofu from my place.

And lunchboxes are simpler...

and it's cost-effective too.

We're the same. I care about cost-efficiency too.

Did you bring a lunchbox too?

This is all because of you.

You haven't gotten used to the Office programs, have you?

I tried to learn from my sister, but we didn't have much time.

I'll get myself trained as soon as possible.

I knew it,

so I made my lunchbox to teach you how to use the program...

during lunch hours.

Have you seen a sweet boss like me?

No, right?

This is my first actual job.

You'll probably never get to meet a boss like me until you retire.

That looks delicious.

This is the tuition fee.

Go on. Eat up.

Seon Hwa.

Ji Hun.

You work here?

Yes.

Does Cheon Dong know?

Yes. He was against it at first,

but I managed to get his permission.

Isn't Ms. Hwang hard to work with?

She can be a little sensitive about some things,

but it's been all right.

By the way, where is Ms. Hwang?

She stepped out with the last guest.

- They went to have coffee. - I see.

Seon Hwa.

Tell me if it gets too stressful.

I'll help you find another job...

You're here.

- You're back. - Yes. Alice, go have dinner.

Okay, I will.

She's my assistant. You haven't met her, right?

Right. Oh, here. Congratulations.

Thanks. Come with me. I'll show you my babies.

I like this painting.

This is my first painting.

- Didn't you say you sold it? - Yes.

The collector who had bought it in New York sent it to me as a gift.

What a pleasant surprise.

Yes, it's not something that happens often.

I really wanted to invite him, but I don't have his contact information.

I'm curious what kind of person he is.

What do you want to say to him if you meet him?

Well, I'll thank him for being my first fan.

"You made a wonderful choice."

"Please continue to be my fan forever." Something like that.

He sent a painting he bought back to the artist as a gift.

It means he strongly believes in you as an artist.

That's what I think.

What's with you?

You're talking as if you know the collector.

Why are you here again?

Hello, ma'am.

Mr. Kim, did you not understand what I said to you?

Or have you made up your mind to just ignore me?

Why do you keep circling around Su Ji?

Mom, why are you being like this?

He deserves to be here.

I wouldn't have been able to open my studio without his help.

Whatever.

Anyone could've done what he did.

I should head back to work.

Bye.

Don't tell me that you're interested in him.

I'm not, of course.

Then I'm relieved.

Still, stop spending time with him.

It's natural to be attached to a guy if you keep spending time with him.

Okay, I heard you. Mom, let me show you my paintings.

Let's go.

Excuse me.

Do you know this man by any chance?

I saw him in this neighborhood recently.

My eyesight is bad these days.

Hold on, please. Where did my glasses go?

What's the matter? Are you looking for someone?

Yes. Ma'am, by any chance...

Trang, we're late. Let's go.

- But... - Come on.

I'm sorry. I have to go.

I guess Ms. Koo went out.

She said she was going to her daughter's studio.

She'll probably get home pretty late.

So are you going to make kimchi all by yourself?

I'll get started and see.

The napa cabbage looks very good.

Thank you for your help, Mr. Kim.

- Would you like a warm cup of tea? - I have to get going.

By the way, all the housekeepers before you...

got fired for not keeping things to themselves.

So you have to keep acting like you don't really speak Korean.

I feel guilty these days.

That is lying, you know.

Lying is bad.

I know, but pretending not to speak Korean...

will make your job easier for you.

Trang, didn't you come to Korea to make money?

Be strong and be a good actress.

You're right.

I need to make a lot of money.

I have to support my entire family in Vietnam.

I got this.

Thank you, Mr. Kim.

Trang!

I had no idea your Korean was so good.

Ms. Koo.

Ms. Hwang, I think all the invited guests have come and left.

Aren't you leaving?

Tidy up tomorrow. You should get going.

I'll tidy up quickly.

I went to his neighborhood and gave it to him in person.

I can't believe he's not coming.

The person you're trying to reach is unavailable.

- Please leave a message... - Is he ignoring my call on purpose?

after the tone.

Here, let me help.

How did you carry this all the way here?

Why didn't you ask me or Mr. Bae?

Newbies should do things like this.

I'm stronger than I look.

Right. I remember you lifting that heavy thing...

at the restaurant the other day.

- Then let's call it a day. - Okay.

Good work, everyone!

Let's go home!

I hand-delivered the invitation, yet you didn't come.

I never said for certain that I'd be there.

And I was swamped with work today.

You keep playing hard to get, so I came all the way here again.

Thanks for all your help.

Let me treat you to dinner today.

Sure.

My entire team worked very hard.

- Enjoy. - Thank you.

Yeo Won, are you already on the bus?

Tell her to join us if she's still in the area.

This has turned into a team dinner, so she should be here.

Mr. Bong says you should join.

Come join us, Yeo Won.

Why do you keep forcing her to come? The bus has already taken off.

All right, okay.

She said she'll just go home.

Oh, I see.

Ms. Hwang wanted to treat us to thank us for our hard work.

So just relax and eat up.

- Okay. - Thank you.

Thank you.

Do they serve wine here?

What? Did you say "wine"?

Excuse me, we'd like a bottle of soju.

Sure.

It's a rare chance to have our team dinner with the CEO's daughter,

so be frank and tell her your concerns.

- Okay. - Okay.

Excuse me for a moment.

Sorry? Mr. Bong.

- I'll be right back. - Right back?

Is he leaving?

Shall I pour you a glass?

- I'll pour you one. - Oh, sure.

Thank you.

Thank you.

All right. Chug it down...

and go.

- Pardon? - Go where?

Do you not get it?

Chug it down and go home!

- Okay. - Cheers.

Here, I got you some wine.

Although I'm not sure if you'll like it.

By the way, where did everyone go?

Did you drink all this by yourself?

Stop drinking.

What is this about?

Are you worried about me now?

You seem pretty drunk. I'll get you some water.

Wait.

Come outside.

Are you all right?

Why did you drink so much?

Hey.

Do you want to date me?

What do you think of me?

(Unasked Family)

- Answer me! - Cheon Dong.

You got all drunk and came home in Mr. Kim's car.

Mom, I'm not drunk.

Is there someone else?

What is it about? Where are you now?

You should work properly to earn your keep.

I'm not lucky with my parents,

and maybe I'm not lucky with my husband either.

- Ms. Kang, we're in trouble. - Sir, we'll take...

what's in the truck first.

Is Ms. Kang still in the warehouse?

I'll be right back.
