Cheers to...

the unemployed people for getting a job again.

Cheers.

- Yes! - Yes!

- Gosh, this is nice. - This hits the spot.

I like that we have jobs,

but isn't it odd that we're working for a pharmaceutical company?

The CEO is very interested in businesses related to culture.

And the CEO will make a good investment.

Most importantly,

he'll pay the penalty for canceling the contract.

- Really? - Yes.

When I demand my terms,

should I ask for a studio?

No, I'll get my own studio.

You can stay at my house and look for a studio then.

Right here?

Why? Do you not like it?

I have a spare room although it's small.

Hyeon Ju.

I think you trust me too much.

I'm a man too.

What is it?

- Yes, you're a man. - My gosh.

Come on. Not your foot.

- It smells. - Stop lying. I washed my feet.

You totally ruined my sweater.

(Mom)

My gosh. It looks like she booked another blind date for me.

I'll be watching you.

If you don't take it seriously, it will be your death.

Will you go?

- You got a job. - If I don't go on the date,

she'll come and ask for 50,000 dollars.

I'll just go and get it over with.

This will be the last one.

So what's your plan this time?

How about Plan Cock-a-doodle?

It's been a while. Plan Cock-a-doodle.

I'll get dumped skillfully very quickly.

Then let's go to Han River.

I'm in.

The webtoon artist, Park Do Gyum, moved in with Ms. Seo today.

Goodnight.

- Thank you. - Gosh.

(Tomb)

(Park Do Gyum)

How dare a little kid run away from home?

Mind your own business. Just leave.

You came to see your mother. Bring a flower at least.

Did you see the son of the Vice Prime Minister?

He has such a beautiful face.

It was like seeing a painting.

He came to his hometown to study for the exam.

I wish I could just talk to him!

Wait. What on earth is she doing up there all day?

Where?

"A tie of a married couple..."

"is like a millennium flower."

"A connection of a married couple is that of a flower..."

"which blooms once every millennium,"

"so it is the most precious."

Is that for me?

My love, please come back. Please.

No.

Why was my dream so realistic?

Did we buy too much beer and snacks?

If we don't finish them, we can continue drinking at home.

Is your blind date handsome?

My mom sent me a photo.

Here.

Oh, my. So that's how he looks.

I think your plan will work well today.

You bet. Let's get this over within 15 minutes.

Okay.

Excuse me. Are you Mr. Kim Byung Chul?

Ms. Seo Hyeon Ju?

It's nice to meet you. I'm Hwang Ji Woo.

Hello.

Wait.

In the elevator...

Thank you so much for that day.

Don't mention it.

I had no idea that we'd be meeting at a place like this.

- Please sit. - Pardon?

I'm here to meet Mr. Kim Byung Chul.

Oh, right.

I think they made a mistake while rescheduling the date.

I got your profile right before coming here.

Then, are you here from the matchmaking agency?

Yes, that's right.

Wait.

What a coincidence. This is fascinating.

I heard you'll be working for Sunwoo Pharmaceuticals.

Yes. But I haven't signed the contract yet.

Wait. Does that say in my profile?

I'm the CEO of Sunwoo Pharmaceuticals.

Pardon?

Keep it quiet.

It's hot.

I hope Hyeon Ju's date is going well.

No news is good news, right?

I know, right?

If she caused trouble,

the agent would have called me.

Speak of the devil.

Hello? Yes?

What?

Hyeon Ju is on a date with a different man?

Yes. I see. Okay. Bye.

Hyeon Ju...

is on a blind date with the CEO of Sunwoo Pharmaceuticals.

Sunwoo Pharmaceuticals?

Isn't that a conglomerate as in Sunwoo Group?

There was an error.

Wait.

If he's the CEO,

he must be in his 50s or 60s.

No way. Do you think he was married once before?

How dare this old man...

try to marry my precious daughter?

(CEO...)

(CEO of Sunwoo Pharmaceuticals)

(Hwang Ji Woo, Date of birth: December 1985)

- Oh, my gosh. - Oh, my gosh.

This is a crazy coincidence.

I don't think it's a simple coincidence.

Right.

I have a question. Can I ask you?

Yes, go ahead.

To tell you the truth, the offer you made...

is too good.

On top of that, you're paying the penalty for Mr. Park Do Gyum.

I was wondering if you had a special reason.

As a businessman, I invested in your ability.

If you think it's too much, think of it as a reward for saving me.

I didn't do it for a reward.

Anyway, thank you.

By the way, I take it that you are very close to Mr. Park.

Yes, we have known each other ever since we were young.

Bok Ja.

My gosh, look who's here. Aren't you Geum Bok Ja?

- No. - I haven't seen you after you left.

- Has it been about 10 years? - No.

You don't remember me?

Why can't you remember me?

I'm Kang Chun Sam. You used to take my money...

at the arcade.

You punched me for every penny you found on me.

When I cried because it hurt,

you beat me up because I was annoying.

My gosh. Did you think I wouldn't recognize you...

if you dressed up to the nines and pretended to be a Seoulite?

- No. - Just do it.

Stop it. Don't.

- My gosh, Bok Ja. - Stop it.

You still haven't quit drinking?

This is how scary alcoholism can be.

Who are you?

Oh, right. I'm Bok Ja's friend from her hometown.

What?

You...

My gosh. Don't call him that.

He's the CEO of Sunwoo Pharmaceuticals.

He's the CEO of Sunwoo Webtoon.

What?

It's nice to meet you. I'm Hwang Ji Woo.

I'm Park Do Gyum.

Well, Mr. Park is planning...

a webtoon that takes place in Chungcheong Province these days.

So he's been practicing some lines on me.

- You're funny. - Yes, he is.

Are you free today?

I'd like to have a character interview before I sign you.

An interview?

- Today... - Not today.

We have plans at Han River.

That's great. I need to be at Han River too.

What?

Hold on. How could he just tag along? We just met today.

What character interview?

Whether it's an interview or an interrogation,

just do everything he says. Okay?

The penalty is at stake on this.

Hyeon Ju, don't you find him suspicious?

This so-called "coincidence" seems unnatural.

It's weird that your blind date changed at the last minute.

You do have a point.

We coincidentally got stuck in an elevator.

But it turned out he wanted to scout me.

- And we met here again. - Right.

I don't think it's a normal coincidence.

Stop using that word so easily.

Okay.

It's already been 20 years since you donated scholarship money.

Thank you so much.

I'm always thinking about this place...

because my daughter attended school here.

Hasn't it only been 5 or 6 years since your daughter graduated?

Pardon?

To be honest,

I've had a connection to this place since a long time ago.

Did your husband...

No.

- Hello. - Hello.

- You want vanilla, right? - Yes.

Can you give me 1 vanilla and 1 chocolate?

What would you like to eat?

I'm only going to buy you one.

Is this part of the interview?

Don't worry about me.

You can just do as you always do.

My gosh. He has daggers coming out of his eyes.

How can I not worry?

Stop it.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

Do we have to go this far?

He's going to pay your penalty.

Stop complaining and smile.

I just need to be able to draw well.

Character interview, my foot.

- Should I put this on the floor? - Yes.

Since it turned out this way,

let's have fun with our future boss.

Okay?

I'm sure it would be loads of fun.

I should just... We overindulged him growing up.

He has no social skills at all.

Is there anything I can help you with?

Can you put this inside?

You shouldn't wear your shoes in here.

The wind is strong.

What's wrong?

The zipper isn't opening.

Move over.

I think you might break it.

It's already broken.

Do Gyum.

Why did they close the door? Open up.

The zipper is broken.

Can you open it up from the outside?

Hey.

It's not opening.

Hold on.

There's nothing here either.

What can we do?

I think we have to rip the tent.

Can you get a cutter knife at the convenience store?

Okay.

Why did you do something that wasn't asked of you...

and cause all this trouble?

I just tested it to see if the zipper worked.

Move over.

It won't open like that.

It won't open like that either.

Move over. I'll do it.

We're going to move forward, so be sure to follow me.

- Okay. - Okay.

- Teacher! - Yes?

What is that?

Over there.

Oh, my. Don't look.

- What is it? - What is it?

Is this the park management office?

There's a couple of people doing something strange in a tent.

Please come quickly.

My gosh, what are they doing over here?

My gosh.

I think I need to get out of here right now.

I need to get out too. Hold on.

Please let me out.

- Please. - Can't you see I'm trying my best?

- My gosh. - Get out of the way!

- Over here. - Move.

- My gosh. - It's them.

- What is this? - What is this?

What are you doing in the middle of the day?

Stop. I said stop. Don't shake the tent.

I'm not shaking the tent because I want to.

- Open up the tent. - The zipper is stuck,

and it won't open right now.

That excuse won't work. Open up.

Listen carefully.

If you don't have at least two sides open in a tent in a public area,

you will be fined 1,000 dollars.

Open up your tent before you get fined.

Fine or not,

I can't open up the tent even if I wanted to right now.

Is that so?

Then I should open it up for you. Let me open it.

- What is that? - It opens just fine. What's this?

It's a man?

- What... - What were they doing?

- What's going on? - My goodness.

Is something wrong?

These two people were caught being physically affectionate...

in a public area.

- Physically affectionate? - My gosh.

That's not it. The zipper was really broken.

What are you saying right now?

You just saw what happened. It opened up smoothly.

Did I force it open?

Being inside a closed tent...

in a public area can result in a fine.

We won't be forgiving next time. Do you understand?

What kind of behavior is that with another man?

Don't you have a home? Why are you doing this here?

How embarrassing. Let's go.

You are both handsome, why don't you meet a nice girl?

My goodness.

- My gosh. - Goodness.

You went through so much because of us.

Why is it our fault?

This would've never happened if he didn't tag along.

Stop it.

Mr. Park is right.

I'm sorry for inconveniencing you.

When will we hear the results?

Pardon?

That is...

The results for the character interview.

He passed.

Like you said,

he has good character.

If you tell us your exact conditions,

we will arrange things accordingly. I'll get going then.

Gosh, something's not right.

Something about him isn't right.

I couldn't do it,

but you will.

(Is something wrong?)

(Regulation officers)

(Ice Cream)

(New Post)

(It's time...)

It's time to go to bed after an exhausting day.

Good night, everyone. Sweet dreams.

Chance? Fate?

It's not ill-fated, is it?

A new start.

I saw this flower in my dreams.

Does anyone know what it is?

I want to find out what flower this is.

(Seo Hyeon Ju)

Thank you.

You're giving me a studio?

Yes. You're joining us, so we should do that much.

Thank you.

These are the clauses regarding...

the conditions of your contract and employee welfare.

Thank you.

(Employment Contract)

- Thank you for your time. - Thank you.

Thank you in advance.

Thank you.

Mr. Park. Thank you.

- Congratulations - Congratulations

- Congratulations - Congratulations

- We congratulate - We congratulate

- Hyeon Ju's employment - Hyeon Ju's employment

- Cheers! - Cheers!

- Cheers! - Cheers!

Cheers!

Cheers!

Let's drink!

You're getting double the salary that you got,

and Do Gyum's penalty has been taken care of.

Should you be grateful for the people...

who got you fired?

That's what I'm saying.

I bet they're completely envious.

What do you think about your boss?

The director at your old job was a complete jerk.

How should I put it? He doesn't seem like a bad guy,

but I don't think I'll ever figure him out...

even if I work with him for the rest of my life.

I know one thing for sure.

- What? - I looked into your company...

since you'll be working there.

There are rumors that Hwang Ji Woo...

is gay.

What? Really?

A financial reporter I know...

told me that pretty much everyone in the field knows this.

Reporter Oh.

If you're a reporter, you should fact check before you say anything.

I did.

There's a truckload...

of actresses, singers, and daughters of conglomerates...

who were rejected by him.

- You know the actress, Go Min Ji? - Yes.

She tried to get a date with him, but never even saw him.

- She's really pretty and popular. - I know.

Men go crazy over her.

Also, my senior manager...

went to high school and college with him.

- Ji Woo. - Ji Woo.

- Ji Woo. - Ji Woo. This is for you.

- Ji Woo. - Ji Woo. I like you.

He never batted an eye toward a female student,

and even in college,

he never went out on blind dates or group dates.

- Drink up. - Here you go.

Furthermore, he didn't hang out with anyone at college outings.

Your credibility is going up.

With all this information, don't you think it's true?

Who cares if it's true? It's his private affairs.

It might not matter for you, but what about Do Gyum?

He's really handsome, you know.

Hey. Hey. Gosh.

My gosh. You don't have a filter, do you?

(Enemy)

(Enemy)

Do you still stay in contact with your ex-husband?

No.

You said you blocked him last time.

You unblocked him.

I unblocked him because I had to ask him something.

My gosh, you're ruining the fun by talking about him. Just drink.

Congratulations, Hyeon Ju, on getting a new job.

Cheers!

Soju? Yes, let's drink soju instead.

Let's drink soju.

There are rumors that Hwang Ji Woo is gay.

These two people were caught being physically affectionate...

in a public area.

It might not matter for you, but what about Do Gyum?

He's really handsome, you know.

No way. There's no way.

Hyeon Ju, don't you find him suspicious?

You do have a point.

We coincidentally got stuck in an elevator.

But it turned out he wanted to scout me.

- And we met here again. - Right.

I don't think it's a normal coincidence.

He's suspicious.

I'm positive he's hiding something.

I take it that you are very close to Mr. Park.

Yes, we have known each other ever since we were young.

- Ms. Seo Hyeon Ju. - Hello.

- Let's go. - Yes, of course.

Isn't my office too close to the CEO's office?

Mr. Hwang asked personally...

that your office be set up over here.

He has a vested interest in the Webtoon Planning Team.

That's quite a burden.

You can use the office next week when we finish the renovations.

It's so nice.

Can I ask for a favor?

To be honest, I'm a fan of Mr. Park.

Could he autograph my book?

Of course. I'll tell him.

Thank you.

Take a look around and tell me if you need anything.

Okay. Thank you.

I need to hire planning producers...

and webtoon artists.

I'm going to be so busy I'll barely have time to breathe.

I'm so glad I got fired!

This is nice.

Yes, Secretary Nam.

I'm about to leave now.

There's a problem with the studio?

I'll give you the new address.

You can go there.

Okay.

Hi, Do Gyum.

You already moved? Where is it?

This is the right place.

Mr. Hwang.

Come in.

I just came to the address that Mr. Park sent me.

Where am I?

It's my house.

Pardon?

You're here, Hyeon Ju.

Hey.

What happened? He said this is his house.

There's a problem with my studio.

So I'll use the second floor as my studio.

Then, does it mean you and Mr. Hwang...

will live together here?

Yes.

(To All The Guys Who Loved Me)

I found him charming after talking to him.

But why did Do Gyum agree to move in with him?

You know the CEO of your company?

Wasn't he the man you went on a blind date with?

It's an honor to meet you.

I hope we cross paths a lot.

We decided to date each other starting today.

Honey, let me take you home.

I heard you're going on a research trip.

There's Mount Hanbaek nearby.

I thought it'd be a nice setting for a webtoon.

Honey, you're early.

Is there a reason behind choosing Mount Hanbaek?

Ms. Seo!

(Epilogue)

Ma'am.

What's the flower that's embroidered here?

It's a silk tree.

From the old times, it was believed to improve love between couples.

A lot of people embroidered that on pillows and blankets.

- I'd like one. - Sure. Thank you.
