Original subtitles

Mr. Unfortunate may look fine on the outside...

but there's something off about his actions.

You have one hour to go make a commercial.

Tooth for a tooth. Poop for poop.

My life depends on this interview.

Your name is Ji Na, right? I think we met passing by.

Maybe that's why your name is Ji Na.

Hold still.

- Magic kiss. - Don't use magic kisses anymore.

- What type do you like, Director Kang? - Better if she can drink.

If you keep this up, it's likely you'll stay with us.

Our concept is a park with a story.

Ms. Ji Na, you've never been to Central Park?

Mister is much more pure than you think.

What do you think about me?

Yoo Ji Na is going after Mr. Unfortunate after finding out that he's Dr. Seed.

Hello, Dr. Seed.

If hiding is cowardly, keeping something hidden is despicable.

I'll show you...

if I must.

You can hold back your feelings for someone?

Is that possible?

I...

I'm going to have you all to myself.

People think Tae Woon is always smiling...

but behind his smile, there's always sadness.

When Ms. Ji Na sees this, she's going to be so happy.

What do people normally do on the first date?

Ms. Ji Na. Ms. Ji Na.

Episode 11

[We open today for only one person, Ms. Ji Na.]

This is where you wanted to go?

When Ms. Ji Na sees this...

Ms. Ji Na!

Ms. Ji Na!

Ms. Ji Na!

They say if you keep your eyes open while kissing, you're a player.

I...

I was too taken aback.

Yeah?

I couldn't help myself, sorry.

Does that make sense?

How can you hold back if you like someone?

Is that possible?

Sorry.

Sorry.

Sorry. Sorry.

- I'm really sorry. - Are you going to keep apologizing?

- Huh? - Give me something... to wipe myself.

Okay...

Here you go.

Getting stood up, then this... What a day...

You are too much, Jung Hye Mi.

Would you like to eat something here?

We are almost there.

I'm so hungry.

Let's eat something first.

Okay.

There must be something around here.

He doesn't need to go all out like this.

I like to put this song on when I cook pasta.

The duration of the song matches up to the cooking time.

Oh...

I see.

I didn't know there was a place like this in this area.

Real estate is really expensive around here.

This isn't all yours, is it?

- What? - Never mind.

It's none of my business whether he owns this place or pays rent.

Just wait a bit.

Okay.

It's aglio e olio.

I made it a little spicy to make you feel better.

It's good.

Thank you.

I really can't figure you out.

Too early to be impressed.

You know how to do it right.

Should I eat it?

Hold on.

I'll take off the wrap for you.

You're so good.

I'm very skillful.

If you rush to strip it, you fail...

Even if you want to strip it, you need to be patient.

One by one, slowly...

What are you thinking?

Nothing. Thank you.

But...

I never would have thought that you'd eat ramen at a place like this.

Why not?

There was a time when I used to eat ramen and triangular rolls everyday.

I eat them from time to time now, too.

You had those days, too?

Then you thought I just got to where I am now overnight?

I'm not like somebody born into a rich family.

Do you know why I chose you?

I saw a lot of things in your heart.

Just like me.

What do you mean?

Aspiration, hope, ambition, yearnings, and desire...

- And also... - Disappointment, despair...

resentment, and desperation.

That's why I kept waiting and seeing...

So did you see any hope for the future?

As long as you don't become reluctant.

It's all cooked.

Let's eat and go.

Okay.

No dessert?

I have some pastries and cookies.

Why aren't you bringing out the dessert?

Huh?

Okay... Hold on.

Did you make these yourself?

Yes.

What a surprise.

What?

I never imagined you would be the type to cook pasta and bake pastries.

You should eat, too.

Feels like I'm the only one eating.

Thank you.

The pastries all have such unique shapes.

The shapes?

This is actually Pao de Acucar.

And this cookie is a tree.

In the book, 'My Sweet Orange Tree...'

An apprentice threads a button...

and yells, 'This is the cable car at Pao de Acucar.'

Pao de Acucar means Sugarloaf Mountain.

The mountain is shaped like a pastry.

And this is a tree there.

So the pastry is shaped like a mountain, and the cookie is shaped like a tree?

Yes, exactly.

You could have put it that simply.

It's a good thing it's not shaped like poop.

Actually, I've got that, too.

No, no...

- This is enough for me. - This tastes really good.

Actually, the thing that connected me and Ms. Ji Na...

is this poop.

I made this poop pastry myself to commemorate that.

I see.

I want to eat this poop pastry with Ms. Ji Na...

and go to Namsan to look at celandines.

And go on the cable car at Namsan...

I wanted to do that...

You don't want to stay longer with me?

Of course, I do.

I'm just holding myself back.

I've actually never gone on a cable car before.

I'm so disappointed.

- Then, I'll go with you. - What?

- I'll go on it with you... - No...

- I'll go with you. - It's okay...

Let's go. Go, go, go!

This is where you wanted to come?

Yes, let's go up these steps and go on the cable car.

Cable car?

Actually, I've never been on one.

Cable car date...

That's what I fantasized about.

Fantasy is good...

but you won't ask to play rock, paper, scissors...

to go up these steps, are you?

Do I look like I would play those tacky games?

I guess not.

Suitable for my position at Korea's top advertising company...

let's play a palindrome game.

What?

Palindrome.

Words or phrases that read the same forwards or backwards.

You know, right?

Palindrome.

Yeah, I know.

I know you are pretty good with word play.

Should we make a bet?

The winner gets their wish fulfilled.

What do you think?

Wish fulfillment?

Yes.

Okay!

Then for each palindrome, you take 10 steps up.

- Okay. - Then, I'll start.

Amore, Roma.

Right?

Read backwards or forward, it's always 'Amore, Roma.'

You accept?

I accept.

Then I'm going up.

Okay, it's your turn now.

Live evil!

Right? Here I come!

Okay, my turn?

Mirror rim.

Right? I'm going up.

Okay.

Your turn.

So many dynamos!

Too bad I hid a boot.

Right?

Here I go.

Okay.

Your turn.

Okay...

One...

Two...

- Seven... - Wait!

Eight, nine, ten.

It's my turn again then.

Yo banana boy!

Right?

I'm going up.

Devil never even lived.

Right?

Sator arepo tenet opera rotas.

I won, right?

You have to fulfill my wish later.

Here, let's go on that cable car.

Wait...

- Where's the ticket booth? - You're still feeling down?

You're not really here to go on that cable car.

Thanks to you, I feel better, too.

Thank you for that.

Thank you.

You could have said no from the beginning...

but you came here with me.

I'll take you home.

Okay.

That last phrase you said before...

What does it mean?

Oh...

Are you sure you want to know?

Okay, I'll tell you.

Sator arepo tenet opera rotas.

Forward, backward, up, or down... It's a perfect palindrome.

Most translate it to mean 'God controls everything.'

But I think all humans are responsible for their own actions.

And they can't undo their actions.

In other words, don't do something you'll regret later.

Ms. Ji Na.

Honey, you look even prettier today.

Of course.

Tae Woon, what are you doing here?

- Man Soo... - What are you doing here?

Ms. Ji Na!

Hello.

What's this?

- You know Ji Na? - Of course.

She's Tae Woon's girlfriend.

Then who's the man you kissed?

Hey...

- Keep it quiet. - What...

Yoo Na, should we go on the cable car?

I should go with my friends...

Okay, I'll call you later.

See you later, Tae Woon...

Ms. Ji Na...

Hye Mi.

Hye Mi.

Make up your mind and go!

Wait... Be careful...

Hey... I'll just go.

You said you wanted to go on the cable car.

I can't face him today.

Please.

I'm going.

Wait.

I spent my entire month's allowance on this.

You can't just go.

Today's really not a good day...

Tae Woon planned out an event for you and waited since yesterday...

You know how stubborn he is...

But if you just leave like this, he'll be so disappointed.

So, let's go on the cable car together...

and you can buy dinner. There's lots of nice restaurants nearby.

What?

Let's just let her go. Look at her face.

She looks like she'll faint.

Hey, do you know how much this cost me?

- It's just stupid tickets... - What?

Stupid tickets?

Ji Mal Sook!

Who will you choose?

Choose between love and friendship. Is it me or your friend?

You're embarrassing me!

Embarrassing you?

You think love changes?

This damn ticket, I don't need it!

Let's just go on it alone.

Ms. Ji Na.

Yeah?

Do you want to go for a drink with me?

Shouldn't you make some kind of excuse?

I'll explain later.

Later?

Even if I try to tell you now, you won't understand.

Then shouldn't you at least say that you are sorry?

No.

I have no reason to be sorry to you.

If anything I should be sorry to Yoo Ji Na.

What did you say?

You are the one that's next to me.

Isn't that enough?

I'll end it soon.

So just be patient.

Hye Mi!

What's all the ruckus?

- You were home? - Yeah.

What's going on?

What's wrong with Hye Mi?

Something came up.

A man can't do anything worthwhile if he can't even handle his own woman.

I'm sorry.

Wait a bit. I'll be back down.

- Let's have a drink. - Yes, sir.

Dad.

Why are you crying?

Why are you worried when you have me?

Was there ever a time when I didn't get you what you wanted?

I know you want Director Kang.

Hye Mi, I can't be with you forever.

I want to get you a man that can take care of you...

That's the last thing I need to do for you.

I like Director Kang as much as you do.

So don't worry.

I'll take care of everything at work for you, so don't worry.

Just spend your time getting ready for marriage.

Okay?

Okay.

Wait...

You shouldn't drink too much.

Um...

Ms. Ji Na!

I need to get drunk.

I need to get drunk, so I can say what I need to say.

Okay.

I don't want to be the only one drunk.

You should get drunk, too.

Another bottle of soju, please.

Okay.

Thank you.

Ms. Ji Na, are you okay?

I heard...

that you waited for me all day long.

Listen carefully.

A pure and nice man like you shouldn't be waiting around for me.

I'm not a good woman.

I know that you are a really really, really good man.

That's why I'm saying this to you.

I know this is going to sound like a lame excuse.

But...

That night...

What I felt then...

I can't say that it wasn't genuine, but...

I don't think I can be faithful to those feelings.

That's why you shouldn't be waiting around for me!

Okay?

Ms. Ji Na!

I'm so angry.

Not because of you.

Because of that man.

I mean...

don't see that man.

I...

I...

I'll be better to you.

I talked to Hye Mi, so don't worry too much.

Thank you.

But what did you do to make Hye Mi cry?

She saw me with another woman.

Another woman?

Yes, I was with Yoon Tae Woon's woman.

And I think Hye Mi misunderstood.

- Yoon Tae Woon's woman? - Yes.

You wanted to know why he's getting involved with our company.

Are you saying the reason was because of a woman?

Yes.

Stupid kid...

He was doing all that Dr. Seed nonsense because of a woman?

Who is this girl?

She's an intern that was hired along with Hye Mi.

What?

An intern?

What the heck...

Because of a mere intern...

But why were you meeting with her?

Just as Hye Mi listens to me.

Yoon Tae Woon will listen to that girl.

Please call an official meeting of the senior directors.

- Meeting of the senior directors? - Yes.

Yes, I'll propose a face to face showdown with Yoon Tae Woon there.

Face to face showdown?

If he doesn't accept my proposal, that would be acknowledging his defeat.

If he does accept my offer, I will beat him.

Not a bad idea.

But Yoon Tae Woon may be more talented than we think.

Senator Jung, there's no such thing as losing to me.

Of course, I'm more talented, too...

When it comes to victory, there are components besides just talent.

- So heavy... - Ms. Ji Na...

Wait...

- Here... - Ms. Ji Na...

- Hey... - Ms. Ji Na.

Get a hold of yourself!

- Come on, wake up! - Cold...

Almost there...

Almost there...

Ms. Ji Na...

We're here.

So heavy.

So darn heavy.

Oh, no.

So heavy.

We're here.

Ms. Ji Na... I have to pee...

Don't go.

Ms. Ji Na...

Tae Woon...

I can't...

hold back anymore.

We...

shouldn't...

do this.

Just imagine.

The day we first met.

Although Kkang Chong went to heaven...

I...

got you.

You are really the perfect woman for me.

- I can no longer... - No!

You and I...

have nothing to do with each other anymore.

No way...

Mr. Unfortunate...

He still had this...

[From Tae Woon... To Ms. Ji Na]

Welcome.

- Can I still eat? - Of course, have a seat.

Dinner's quite late for you. What would you like?

A young man like you must be starving if you didn't eat, yet.

Just give me whatever is the quickest.

Just wait a bit. I'll get it ready.

Welcome...

I'm glad there's another customer.

Can I eat, too?

Honey, close the restaurant.

I just need a minute.

Please listen to me.

What are you doing? You can't come in here.

Wait...

Stay outside.

This is a record of all my research and inventions.

Please take a look.

Ten years ago, when I first started...

That's enough.

- Please, just take a look. - You know well that this is useless.

Sir...

I had no choice but to come here.

Please, listen to me just this once.

That company stole my technology...

and they are lying that they invented that product.

If the commercial airs, that will be the end of me.

- What about my family? - My job is to make an image...

It's not my job to figure out the originator.

Stop and go your way.

No...

Please...

Please hear me out just this once.

All I need is a minute.

I'm sorry.

Today's not a good day. Sorry, sorry.

Chairman, why are you doing this?

It's me.

Did you get the file I sent?

- Is all the info on here valid? - Yes.

I came to Yoo Ji Na's hometown and validated everything.

And I'm just coming out of her parents' restaurant.

- Thank you. - But...

there's another interesting thing.

Chairman Yoon is here right now.

Chairman Yoon?

I'll find out how Chairman Yoon is involved and report back to you.

Why Chairman Yoon?

Will you wait for me tonight?

Let's do the event then.

It looks like it was fate we met then.

- You didn't hear? - Hear what?

The Nuri Park project is going to be combined into one team.

Oh my God...

- Hello. - You are really Dr. Seed?

I'm sorry.

Please break your ties with Tae Woon.

- You don't care which side? - No.

Even if Yoo Ji Na gets hurt?
