Honey.

Yes?

Were you fired from work?

I'm asking you if it's true you work fired from work.

I wasn't fired.

I was just transferred.

If something like that happened, you should've told me!

Do you know how I was humiliated at my gathering?

I'm so humiliated.

How am I supposed to face people now?

Is this something to be that embarrassed about? Were you that embarrassed?

Then you think I'm happy?

People were saying you were demoted to work at some small market.

They were saying it was the same thing as being fired.

They were making fun of me while pretending they were worried about me!

I felt like I was covered in poo water!

Dad.

Dad, were you...

Were you really fired from work?

Then...

...when people ask me what my dad does for a living,

what should I answer now?

What should I do?

Pegasus Market

(Episode 5)

Who ordered jjajangmyeon?

Here!

How much is it?

Is that you, Jung Bok-dong?

You were the class president of class 3-2 of Manman High School, right?

Don't you remember me?

It's me, Chul-Soo! Oh Chul-Soo!

We were in the same class!

Oh, Chul-Soo!

Oh Chul-Soo!

Hey, it's been so long!

It's good to see you, friend!

Yes, it is!

I heard how you were doing from our classmates.

I heard you're a hotshot at DM Group.

Royal Muk.

The sales for royal muk...

...It's amazing.

Ms. Jo!

You need to come to the market!

Why? Did something happen?

Well, Assemblyman Kim Chi-ah came out of the blue.

He's going around and criticizing everything.

Assemblyman Kim Chi-ah is at our market?

Mr. Jung isn't here right now! We need you to come down!

Okay, I'll be right there after I just save this.

Hello!

Yes, hello.

Those seafood!

You need to make sure where they're from.

That's where you find corruption.

Hello, sir!

You work hard day and night to help Bonghwang City's development.

So I'm truly honored that you came to visit our market!

I'm the manager of Pegasus Market!

My name's Moon Seok-goo!

(Grand Bow)

(Considered to be the greatest bow of bows)

( It's a legendary bow that's used to show the utmost respect for the recipient)

(As the name indicates, it's a bow that's "monumental" and "majestic")

Mr. Moon.

Respect.

I can't believe I saw the bow I only heard about in legends!

Is this a dream or what?

I heard only great experts know how to do that!

I wonder who Mr. Moon really is!

Moon Seok-goo...

I didn't know there were young people who still did the grand bow these days.

You know your manners.

Thank you, sir!

To be honest, I was initially upset that no one was there to greet me when I came in.

But I feel better now, thanks to you.

I'm sorry, sir.

If I knew you were coming ahead of time,

then I would've at least prepared a sign for you at the entrance!

Oh, my!

Goodness!

Look at how the manager here is boot licking.

He looks like he's ready to do anything for him.

That's why assemblymen do whatever they want.

It's because everybody can't say anything mean to them in person.

Jeez, I hate that.

Hey, Mr. Moon.

I'm thirsty. Do you have anything cold to drink?

I'll bring you something cold right away.

All right.

It would be horrible if Mr. Kim gets sick if he drinks the water in a hurry.

He might blame our market!

What should I do?

The cabbage is sold out.

(Cabbage-$9.90)

Here's your water, sir.

Hold on.

What's with this cabbage?

You might get sick if you drink in a hurry.

So you should drink slowly as you blow the cabbage leaf away.

Jeez, I thought our manager was a sycophant.

But there was a twist!

What a great satire!

By putting a cabbage leaf in the water,

he's telling him to go easy on the bribes.

(#cabbageleafassemblyman, #goeeasy, #PegasusMarketmanagerisgreat)

(As expected from Pegasus Market. I have they have great employee benefits too)

(Let's get Kim Chi-ah to resign)

Thank you.

Let's go.

Goodbye, sir!

You're so cool!

You're the best!

You're so cool!

What happened?

There was one cabbage leaf remaining at the fresh produce section.

Jeez.

He was really cool.

How's our noodles?

It's delicious.

After I got fired from my job,

I ended up going through my severance pay.

And one day, I realized I had to do something.

I thought I needed to learn a skill to support my family.

So at age 40,

I started working from the bottom

as a Chinese restaurant kitchen worker and a dishwasher.

I see.

It's been 5 years I set up my own restaurant.

These days, I do the deliveries myself.

Everybody's having a hard time because the economy's bad.

But what are you doing here at this hour?

What about work?

Mr. Jung's late again.

Something always happens whenever he comes to work late.

He can't be....

When we were in high school, you were good at everything, Bok-dong.

No, I wasn't.

You were smart and athletic.

You even wrote poems and you won awards at writing competitions.

I did?

Oh, did I?

You were really into literature.

As you live, you experience all kinds of things.

You may become bankrupt or lose all your money.

Or get demoted from work too.

I didn't inherit anything from my parents.

And I never got anywhere using my connections.

I'm just hanging in there with what I have.

But you know...

I'm still happy with my life.

All of my family members are healthy.

My restaurant isn't doing too well.

But it makes enough to let me pay back some of my bank loans and support my family.

And I even ran into a high school friend I really liked and admired.

Out of everybody I know, you're the most successful person.

Stop wallowing in your misery.

Go back inside if you got enough fresh air.

Mr. Moon.

Welcome, Mr. Jung.

Yes, Mr. Moon.

Sir, what are you doing here? Why are you staring at the wall?

When I look at an empty wall like this...

...it reminds me of an unknown space.

Doesn't it make you want to fill it up with something creative?

Pardon?

Use your imagination.

This thought occurred to me.

Ocean.

What if we fill up this space with the ocean?

Fill up what with the ocean?

I'm saying we should create a break area.

Oh, a break area.

You're right. It's a waste to not use this space.

I think it's a great idea.

Since you agree too, I'll do my best to work on it.

Yes, sir.

We'll make a beautiful area.

Sounds of the ocean.

Smell of the ocean.

Let's transfer those right here as they are.

Pardon?

(Pegasus Market) A few days later

Eat some popcorn while you look around!

It's $2.43!

It's amazing!

Oh! A whale!

Do you like it?

Mr. Jung.

This isn't a rest area. It's a large aquarium.

Just how much of the budget did you use?

It's quite realistic, right?

I had a hard time purchasing the aquatic animals. Whales are expensive.

I brought seawater from Dokdo Island.

I installed the best equipment as well.

We need to maintain the optimum levels of oxygen and temperature

so we can prevent the aquatic animals from dying.

Please do a good job of maintaining the aquarium.

Me?

You want me to take care of a whale?

Wow, fish!

Be careful! Be careful as you look around!

The customers seem quite happy with it.

But in order to maintain a large aquarium like this,

it will take a lot of money every month.

Don't worry about that.

We can just ask HQ to pay for it.

HQ?

We love you! We love you, customers!

Welcome to Pegasus Market Aquarium.

When one calm down, another acts up.

What do you think you're doing with the mic right now?

I'm hosting a special event on Mr. Jung's orders!

A special event?

What is that? What is that?

It's a person.

Why in the world are those people in the expensive aquarium?

Tell them to come out this instant!

Don't get worked up, Mr. Moon.

It was my idea.

Starting now, for just 10 minutes, we'll hold a special event.

The first three! The first three!

For the first three people in line, we will cut up the freshly caught fish for you!

We will begin the surprise event!

Stand in line!

Mr. Jung!

Mr. Jung!

You can't do this event!

Haven't you been to a fish market? Why are you overreacting?

A fish market and our market are different!

And that will all be in violation of food safety laws!

Plus, Assemblyman Kim Chi-ah came here trying to find any fault!

It was so hard sending him away!

If he comes again, then you can send him away again.

You're good at your job.

Please keep the order!

Be careful!

Eat some popcorn too! It's $2.43!

Did you hear about Pegasus Market?

I heard the sales greatly increased after Mr. Jung was transferred there.

I heard the profit is exponentially increasing!

Someone like him needs to be working at HQ.

Don't you think shareholders will say something to the chairman at the next meeting?

It seems like everybody's keeping an eye on Pegasus Market.

In a small market, even if the sales rise, it will still be small!

Why is everybody making such a fuss?

(Mr. Kwon Young-gu)

Hello, sir!

Why are your reports so far apart these days?

Why aren't you doing your job?

That's not it. I was going to submit an official report to you, sir.

Is there something special to report?

Pegasus Market sales are rapidly increasing.

Mr. Jung made an aquarium.

It became a hit.

I didn't expect it to do so well.

I think Mr. Jung's really amazing.

Moon Seok-goo.

Yes?

I told you to keep an eye on Jung Bok-dong and report to me.

I never asked you to sing his praises to me.

That's not it. I'm trying to relay the current market...

Do you have a death wish?

I'm hanging up.

(Young-gu's not here)

Jo Mi-ran speaking.

Ms. Jo.

It's me, Kwon Young-gu.

Yes, sir.

It's been a while since you first started working there.

So why haven't you made any report?

There is nothing special to report back to you, sir.

I see.

What has Jung Bok-dong doing these days?

He comes to work when it's time and he leaves work when it's time.

He's just working as usual.

He has such a poker face! If you dig in, you'll find out he's up to something!

Are you sure you didn't find anything suspicious or fishy?

Yes.

As I told you before, there is nothing special to report.

Okay.

Report right away if anything that catches your attention.

Yes, sir.

Have they all... joined Jung Bok-dong's side?

You want us to cut ties with Pegasus Market?

Why? What's wrong?

I have a bad feeling about it.

I think you should focus on taking care of the things you're working on right now.

Mr. Kwon, what has made you so timid these days?

Are you that scared of Mr. Jung?

It's not that I'm scared of him.

It's because everybody's keeping an eye on Pegasus Market because of Jung Bok-dong.

Because the market sales are suddenly increasing,

I think they will talk about it at the next shareholders' meeting so...

You should lay low for a while.

Isn't it good for us if the sales are rising?

Then we will be getting more money.

Well, that's...

And Mr. Kim seems to be up to something too.

Grandpa is? Why?

I think his lawyer, Mr. Kim, is going around and asking questions.

Then what should we do?

Are we done for?

That's why I think...

...we should get rid of all evidence.

We should find and destroy all the fake contracts we made with the suppliers.

We should get rid of all paperwork that may pose a problem.

We need to make sure the people involved don't talk as well.

Okay.

I don't know anything so you take care of it.

I'm going to go nuts if Grandpa wants to see me over this.

So you take care of everything until the end.

Yes, sir.

I understand.

If I'm not careful, I might have to take the blame for everything.

Mr. Park, it's me.

Come to my office as soon as you get to work tomorrow.

(Pegasus Market)

You're eating late.

Lunch hour passed a long time ago.

I had a lot of things to do in the morning.

It's been a while since I saw a packed lunch.

My mom used to pack lunch for me when I was young or when we went on picnics.

Isn't it uncomfortable carrying it around?

It's a hassle.

But I love my mom's side dishes.

And I need to eat homemade food to feel re-energized.

Ms. Jo, did you eat yet?

Yes, I did.

Then I'm going to eat now.

Yes, enjoy your meal.

November 9, 2019.

Until December 6, 2019.

Pardon?

Weren't you trying to check the expiration date?

Yes, that's right.

December 6, 2019.

Oh, it's fine.

This is interesting.

It won't open.

I'm not going to drink it.

You're drinking grape juice today.

Pardon?

You're drinking grape juice instead of coffee.

Oh...

I was thirsty.

Yes?

Sir, I'm here.

Have a seat.

Mr. Park.

I gave it some thought.

You know the documents we're keeping at Pegasus Market?

That keeps bothering me.

So I was thinking...

I need you to go there and bring those to me.

Me, sir?

It's best to get rid of things that may be problematic, don't you agree?

So what you're saying is you want me to be dispatched there?

No.

You will be officially transferred there.

Pardon?

An official transfer to Pegasus Market?

How long have you been the section chief?

3 years, sir.

You'll be transferred as the department head.

When you return, you'll be a deputy department head.

I'll help you quickly climb up the ladder until you're a board member.

What do you think?

Sir.

I'll do everything you want me to do.

But please don't transfer me to Pegasus Market...

Please reconsider!

You're going to be promoted to department head. You don't like it?

I would rather be dispatched.

If you can just dispatch me there like Ms. Jo,

then I'll take care of what you want me to do.

Please trust me!

You're the only one I can trust to do the job.

No matter what happens...

I'll bring those damn documents to you, sir.

Fine.

I'll temporarily dispatch you.

Sit, sit. What's wrong with you? Your knees must hurt.

But that damn market is strange.

Even a normal person becomes strange when he goes there.

I feel like people's loyalty for me just plummets as well when they go there.

I will never do that, sir.

So I was thinking...

...why don't you get some mental training before you go?

Mental training?

Strengthen!

My mind!

Put the tire on!

Hey, can you get me a roll of dimes?

Oh, my! Oh, dear!

I'm so sorry, ma'am!

I'm sorry!

Thank you, Mr. Moon.

Oh, dear!

Jeez!

I wasn't paying attention.

What the heck?

Oh, jeez!

Seriously, I'm not the type to get the wrong ideas.

You shouldn't just be nice to everybody for no reason!

You shouldn't!

Jeez!

Strengthen!

My mind!

Invincible!

Dispatch!

You can give up anytime!

Nobody's forcing you!

No, sir!

I never give up, sir!

Invincible! Dispatch!

- Strengthen! - My mind!

Invincible!

Dispatch!

- Let's beat... - ...Bok-dong!

I'm being dispatched!

(Royal Muk)

That will be $48.70.

Have a good day.

Sir, what are you doing at the cashier?

I'm working.

So I'm asking why you're working as a cashier.

What's the point of sitting in the office by myself just because I'm the president?

I should set an example and help out when we're busy.

If you're up to something,

then please tell me.

It seems like you're up to something.

Don't misunderstand my pure intentions. I'm not up to anything else.

He's lying.

(Pegasus Market)

Recharge is complete.

A, b, c, d, e, f, g.

Again!

A, b, c, d, e, f, g.

H, i, j, k, l, m, n, o, p.

First, there's no problem here.

(Customer Satisfaction Center) - It's a BOGO product.

Don't be unhappy and go home now.

Next!

You're worried about your hair volume, right?

Yes.

Now, as long as you have this curling iron...

- You no longer have to worry! - Everything's fine here too.

It will never uncurl. Never.

I misunderstood Mr. Jung.

We just made the aquarium.

I'm sure Mr. Jung will take a break for a while without getting into trouble.

Mr. Jung.

What are you doing here?

What is with this random and inappropriate area?

Have a seat here.

It's warm, right?

It's a custom made ondol cashier that I ordered.

Ondol?

After working as a cashier,

I realized that doing hours of repetitive work while standing is very tough.

Do we have to work like this?

Isn't it there an innovative way for the

employer, employee, and consumer to all be happy?

So when I was thinking about that...!

I thought of the small corner store in my neighborhood from a long time ago.

I would beg my mom to go there to buy snacks.

When I went, the old owner would be lying down in her room

or she would be dozing off in her chair

until I woke her up and she would take the money.

Grandma! Grandma!

Yes? Oh, goodness.

She would search her pockets to find change for me.

If I was short of money by a little, she would say it's fine.

- Thank you, ma'am. - Sure.

Goodbye!

It wasn't a cold cashier's desk like we have these days.

Back then, nobody...

...thought that the grandmother was trying to make a profit off of us.

We were just all neighbors living together.

So with the intention of promoting a caring neighborhood,

I created this ondol cashier's desk.

Sir.

The corner store grandmother is just a distant memory.

If you make the cashier's desk like a small rural store's cashier,

then the people who come to our market will see our market more as a crappy market!

Then that's better.

Cup.

Who wants water?

Make sure you do a good job of organizing!

You there.

Let me ask something.

What would you like us to help you with, sir?

We're here to see the president.

Where should we go?

Oh, Mr. Jung?

Mr. Jung is...

I'm in charge of the customer satisfaction center.

If you have a problem, you should talk to me.

Our dear customers.

Mr. Jung.

What's going on?

Mr. Moon.

They said we need to have a long talk.

Are you the manager here?

Yes, I am.

We're the F4 of Phoenix Corporation!

(Labor union leaders of...)

(Rising Dragon Electronics, Summer Salt Chemicals, Wind God Instruments, White Steel)

You mean Flowers Over...?

The workers of Phoenix Corporation labor union were moved by Pegasus Market.

Non-discriminatory hiring and high wage.

Plus, you worked as a cashier yourself

to transform the cashier's desk into an ondol cashier for our laborers.

We were so moved!

Plus, I heard that ondol is made of loess.

It must've been quite expensive.

Pegasus Market is...

...the true present day symbol of co-existing with our laborers!

Our labor union workers plan to start a campaign encouraging people to shop from here.

Pegasus Market!

Pegasus Market!

Pegasus Market!

Pegasus Market!

No, no.

Thank you for your kind words.

But the Hydra Market next door has way better quality products

and the prices are cheap too.

That's all because...

they forced stores inside their mall to do that and their laborers to work that much!

He's right.

When we buy products, we're consumers.

But at the same time, we're laborers getting paid.

We need to get rid of heinous employers like Hydra Market!

Don't you agree, Mr. Moon?

...That's right!

Our Pegasus Market...

Rather than pursuing profit,

we are trying to become everybody's neighbor!

Pegasus Market!

Pegasus Market!

Pegasus Market!

Pegasus Market!

Pegasus Market!

Pegasus Market!

Pegasus Market!

- Pegasus Market! - I think you have a misunderstanding.

Listen to me. Why did you all come in too?

You got the wrong idea. Be quiet.

Listen to me!

I'm telling you to stop!

Please stop...

(Pegasus Market Monthly Sales Graph)

What in the world?

Stop it already.

Where did your dad go?

Where did Mr. Pielekku go?

Why do I keep dreaming of that day?

Goodness.

Oh, my goodness!

Look who it is.

It's Ms. Jo Mi-ran.

What brings you here, Mr. Park?

Because you're not doing your job,

I came here to do it myself.

What did you say?

Where's the president's office?

It's my first day working here.

So I should say hello to Mr. Jung Bok-dong first.

It's been a while, Mr. Park.

How have you been, sir?

I was dispatched here starting today.

Yes, please work hard.

Yes, sir.

I look forward to working with you.

No matter what happens,

I'll bring those damn documents to you, sir.

What the hell do you think you're doing?

You call this clothes?

What's with these outfits?

It's the Bbayan Tribe's traditional outfit.

We have the right to wear our clothes!

Jeez.

Right? Yeah, right.

Are you sure you all went through the official procedure when you were hired?

I will report this to HQ

and open up an investigation to see if there was any recruitment irregularities.

"King"? What is with this?

- Is this gold? - What should we do?

Recruitment irregularities?

People who have no money or connections like us

can't possibly buy our way into getting hired.

At this rate...

...we might all get fired.

No, no.

At times like this, we need to lay low.

Breathe quietly. Walk quietly.

Let's walk with our shoes off too.

Park Bo-gum?

Jung Hae-in?

I didn't know Yeo Jin-goo was here.

How old are you, Yeo Jin-goo?

This damn market.

What is with this market?

And what's with those outfits?

Moon Seok-goo?

Yes, I'm Moon Seok-goo.

Follow me!

Why?

Come with me!

Mr. Kwon Young-gu sent me. I'm Park Il-oong.

Hello, Mr. Park!

I heard you came.

I was working so I couldn't say hello. I'm sorry!

Moon Seok-goo.

Where do you keep the documents here?

Pardon?

I'm talking about the suppliers' contracts and sale proposals.

I'm sure there's a place where you store important documents from the past 3 years!

All of the documents you mentioned are stored here.

Things are going easier than I thought.

What in the world?

It's locked.

Give me the key.

I don't have the key.

What?

I used to have the key.

But after Mr. Jung was transferred here,

he always carries it around.

The longest key from the keys is the key to this document storage room.

Why would you tell me that now?

You just asked me.

Jeez!

You just asked me.

So...

Yes, Mr. Moon.

What did you say?

I can't use violence.

Things could get out of hand.

Mr. Jung.

Would you like to drink some sweet cold drink?

Sure.

Mr. Jung isn't an easy opponent.

It will be hard to trick him.

My stomach hurts.

Ow, my stomach...

- Yes, hello? - Moon Seok-goo!

It's me.

Hang onto Mr. Jung!

What do you mean?

Stop him from entering the president's office!

Make sure you delay him until I call you!

If you don't, you and I will lose our heads!

Our heads?

Can you make a copy of this?

What in the world?

What's wrong with the door?

Damn it!

(Pegasus Market)

What...?

Mission complete.

Why isn't this opening?

What are you doing here, Mr. Moon?

Were you the one who was blocking the door?

No, sir!

I just came in because my stomach was hurting!

- Just now? - Yes.

I see. Come in.

Mr. Moon!

You should know that this door doesn't open well.

Yes, sir.

Jeez.

I guess this door opens and sometimes it doesn't.

It opens easily.

We should fix it.

In order to steal those documents,

If the police come, we'll be arrested on the spot!

Hold onto this.

(Important Documents)

Mr. Kwon!

I saw a new side of you today!

You're my owner forever!

You're overreacting over nothing.

How could your body be as flexible as a squid?

I never imagined you would be like that!

Mr. Park.

- Yes? - You know...

This flexibility is the key to

how I survived in our company and managed to make it here.

If you're as stiff and unbending as Jung Bok-dong, you break.

Always keep this in mind.

Flexibility in everything.

And a gentle charisma like mollusks.

I'll keep it in mind, sir!

Go, go.

(Special Contract Conditions)

Wait, wait! Hold on!

Turn the engine off!

(Special Contract Conditions)

Wait, wait! Hold on!

- Turn the engine off! - Yes, sir!

Is there something wrong?

What's wrong, sir? Is there a problem with the document?

This is a copy.

It's copied!

How...?

Where is the original copy?

Original copy...

Jung Bok-dong!

Jung Bok-dong!

Pegasus Market

All employees will memorize the choreography by tomorrow

and we will perform!

We're going to hold a slogan contest.

Mr. Jung, what are you doing during work hours?

I wanted to try it!

We need to change our plan.

We will disrupt Pegasus Market from operating.

You got employed without resumes.

Loser like you aren't suitable for our company.

You know Jo Mi-ran.

There's a chance that she's a double spy working for Jung Bok-dong.

You damn weasel!

Mr. Park.

Shall we have a talk?

Everybody at Pegasus Market is insane!

No!

I'm really curious what kind of person you are and what you're thinking, sir.
