EPISODE 7

Jeez, this is nuts.

She's such a handful.

Why? What's going on?

I'm talking about Seo Dal-mi
at Samsan Tech.

She has so many questions.
She kept texting me all night.

Jeez, look. She texted me over 400 times.

What? Over 400 times? That is crazy.

How can any mentor possibly answer
all those questions?

What can I do? I should answer them.

I should've never volunteered
to be a mentor. I really regret it.

It's such an ordeal.

It is an ordeal. Right?

Yes, it sure is.
I brought this upon myself.

Gosh.

Is this it? Yes.

SEND
TO: SEO DAL-MI

YOUR EMAIL HAS BEEN SENT

Finally, I'm done!

Gosh, my wrist hurts.

Ms. Seo.

What's with him?
His actions don't match his words.

Ms. Seo, what brings you here?

Could you check our shareholders' list?

You could've just emailed me. Why come…

all the way here?

I also wanted to talk.

SHAREHOLDERS' LIST

You'll receive the start-up fund tomorrow.

Thank you.

-Let's go.
-You go ahead.

I need to talk with Ji-pyeong.

All right, then.

What is it about?

Well…

I'm thinking of telling Dal-mi
the truth today.

The truth?

About the letters?

Yes.

Why, all of a sudden?

I want to remove a bug
that's bound to occur someday.

-Don't tell her.
-I want to.

Everything will be ruined, the company
and your relationship with her.

No, it'll be all right.

Why so confident?

That's what I want to ask you.

What can 15-year-old letters do?
What makes you so sure it'll be the end?

I think they can do

a lot more than you can now.

We'll see about that.

"We'll see about that"?

"We'll see about that"?

How dare he.

Turn left at the next light.

"We'll see about that"?
Why should I listen to you?

I refuse!

You invited him over
when you've only recently met?

We go back a long way.

Fifteen years. I'd say
that's long enough to invite him over.

My gosh, we don't have anything to eat.

Dal-mi, go to the grocery store

and pick up some beltfish and seaweed.

It's okay. I don't need to eat.

I have to eat dinner. Go on, hurry.

-Now?
-Yes, go.

Make yourself at home.

Don't say anything weird.

Dal-mi's told me a lot about you.

I did think we'd meet sooner or later,

but who knew this is how we'd meet?

Is your eyesight very bad?

It's okay at the moment.

I can see well.

If I take good care of myself,

I can slow down the progression
of my condition.

-I'm guessing Dal-mi doesn't know?
-Right, she doesn't.

So pretend you don't know
anything, either.

How can I do that?

-If she finds out later--
-She'll probably cry

and blame you for not telling her.

She'll cry and be resentful.

Then,

she'll pity me,
just like you're doing now.

-Ms. Choi, I'm just--
-I don't like being looked at like that.

It makes me feel

as though something
really bad has happened.

As if

the whole world will turn pitch black
right this second,

and my life will be completely destroyed.

But you know,

that's not going to help my eyes
get better.

I don't want that pitiful gaze
from anyone else.

No more

of that gaze.

Thanks to you,

Dal-mi has been smiling a lot lately.

Since the day she met you,

she's been going on about you every day.

Her eyes sparkle like
diamonds when she talks about you.

I'm sure you know

how pretty

her eyes are when she smiles.

Yes.

Of course, I know.

I owe it all to you, Do-san.

Thanks to you,

I can see those pretty eyes

every single day.

If I can see them

for just a little longer

then even if I do go blind,

I'll have no regrets.

Can you please help me?

Is it too inconsiderate of me
to ask such a favor?

No.

Not at all.

I'm counting on you.

Don't tell anyone, okay?

Okay.

Don't tell Dal-mi. Or Ji-pyeong.

You mean, Mr. Han Ji-pyeong?

Yes.

That Good Boy

will go on about his debt again
and make a big fuss over it.

Gosh, I'm so tired of it.

The deep despair
I can't even try to understand.

While watching her quietly embrace

and accept even that into her life,
it became clear.

I'm sorry. I know it sounds ridiculous.

But I'm deeply indebted to the person
who asked this favor.

It's just for an hour.

Please pretend
to be the person in the letters.

The person who led me to a first love
I didn't even know existed…

How in debt are you

that it can't be paid with your wealth?

I wish it could be paid with money.

And the person who offered him a kindness
that could never be repaid…

It was her.

All these miracles

began with her.

-Ms. Choi.
-Yes?

Ms. Choi, I…

I have something for you.

I made these cleaning sponges.

My gosh.

Hey, you're very crafty.

My, these are nice.

Have you heard of the RGB color model?

It's a color system
based on three primary colors.

I made these sponges
inspired by those colors.

Gosh, what was
that awkward reaction about?

She met him again after almost 15 years.
Isn't she excited to see him?

-Oh? Mr. Han.
-Mr. Nam Do-san…

I mean, where is Do-san?

Do-san? He's at my place now.

At your place?

What's wrong?

What brings you here?

Grandma, say hello to our mentor.

He's like a brother to Do-san.
His name is Han Ji-pyeong.

Oh, hello.

Hello.

This is the CEO of Cheong-myeong Corn Dog

and my grandma, Ms. Choi Won-deok.

It's nice to meet you.

THE RATE AT WHICH A START-UP SPENDS MONEY

Oh, likewise.

But what brings you by at this hour?

I'm here because…

I have something urgent to speak
with Do-san about.

Hey, let's go. We need to talk.

What is it about?

Ji-pyeong.

About that, I'll take your advice.

You'll take my advice?

That's right.

So don't worry.

Just leave.

-Are you sure?
-Yes.

Well, all right. I'll be off then.

Take care.

Did you have dinner?

Dal-mi, he has plans.

-Really?
-Yes. Right, Ji-pyeong?

-No, I don't.
-You do!

Nope.

Well, I'll stay for dinner then.

Oh, boy.

Can you leave?

I'll leave after dinner.

Grandma. These two are making our ceiling
look so low, don't you think?

Yes, totally.

Oh, this is great.

You guys are tall. Can one of you
change the light bulb in our bathroom?

-Of course.
-Of course.

I'll do it. I'm taller than him.

Only by a centimeter or two.

-What? Hey.
-It's about the same.

What are you saying?

It's not just by a centimeter or two.

-Fine, let's make it four.
-Okay.

But that's still shorter than this.
All right?

Where is it? Where is the bathroom?

-Oh, the bathroom is that way.
-Over there?

Hey! Let me do it, okay?
I majored in computer engineering.

Get out.
I own shares in a lighting company.

I got A+ in Circuit Theory
as well as in Power Engineering.

I know everything about the types
and history of lighting,

and I'm also well versed
in their profit margins and distribution.

Okay, I heard you.

But that's just…

-Move, will you?
-They're so tight.

-Fine.
-They look like brothers.

-Seriously…
-Let's take a break. Just for a moment.

I'll let you pretend you know everything
about computers, but not this. Jeez.

Dal-mi, I fixed the showerhead.
Anything else?

I moved the plants. Anything else?

If you need anything moved or fixed,
just tell me.

No, there's nothing else.

Just tell me. I'm still in my 20s,
which means I'm stronger.

You have cervical kyphosis.
What if your disc collapses?

I'm worried.

Tell me. What else?

Nothing else. Come and eat.

-Okay!
-Okay!

Let's eat.

-Oh, beltfish!
-It looks amazing.

Beltfish is so expensive now. I'll make
sure everyone gets an equal portion.

Here, Grandma.

Here, Mr. Han.

It doesn't seem that "equal."

Gosh, Grandma.
Look at you getting jealous.

Here.

I've heard a lot about you.

Dal-mi said you've been taking
great care of her.

You're her savior.

-That's--
-Strictly speaking,

he is Do-san's savior.

He's helping me
because I work with Do-san.

That's not true.

-Pardon?
-I don't help anyone and everyone.

I'm not that kind,

nor do I have that much time.

Then why are you looking after me?

-For my ROI.
-Sorry? Your ROI?

I'm an investor.

I'm not helping you for free,
so you must repay me tenfold.

Of course, we should.

Thank you for the food.

-Get home safely.
-Will do.

You guys are going separately?

Want a ride?

Shall I drop you off?

Sure, that'd be great.

Hold on, Ms. Seo.
Did you check your email?

My email? No, not yet.

Those questions you sent me.

I emailed you my answers,
so check when you get a moment.

What? I texted you over 400 questions.
You answered all of them?

Right, 461 questions in total.
I answered them all.

Seriously?

You're amazing.

Thank you so much. I really mean it.

Then to thank you…

-I will…
-You have something on…

I'll do whatever it takes
to become an outstanding CEO.

You can't achieve that
with determination alone.

Right, I can't. But without determination,
I won't go anywhere.

All right.

Let's go, Do-san.

-All right.
-Okay.

-The car's here--
-Give me a second.

Hey, I forgot to answer your question
about the shares.

You're our CEO
who holds 71 percent of the shares.

I am part of your shares,

and I got your back.

And we'll always be a team,
no matter what happens.

So trust me and don't worry, okay?

Okay.

-Go home.
-All right. It's chilly. Go back inside.

The other side.

So what's going on?

Didn't you say
you'd tell her about the letters?

-You told me not to.
-Don't give me such an excuse.

You couldn't even bring it up.

-Drop me off at the next light.
-I'll take you home.

You're making me uncomfortable.
I'll take the bus.

You have a knack for confusing others.
You said you're ambitious.

Then use your resources,
whether that's me or Seo Dal-mi.

I'm not using her.

I've started to really…

Get out.

You said you'll take the bus. Go.

-What? Get out.
-I'm really confused.

Mr. Han,

are you jealous?

What? "Jealous"?

Hey, look. I guess you don't know
what "jealous" means.

That's why you're asking.

-So you're not jealous?
-No, I'm not.

All right, then.

-Dal-mi.
-Yes?

Which Do-san do you like better?

What do you mean?

The one who used to write you letters
15 years ago

or the one you met again as an adult?

What? What kind of question is that?

Why separate the two? It's the same guy.

I know that.
But if we were to separate the two,

which Do-san would you pick?

Between the two of them?

I'm not sure if I can think that way.
Why do you ask?

What? Well, I was just curious

what it would've been like if you'd
never been pen pals in the first place.

Gosh. Knowing how picky you are, I wonder
if he would've met your standards.

What? I'm not picky.

You are picky.

No spelling mistakes whatsoever.
You like men who are empathetic

and not rude.
And they can't expect to see you randomly.

There are so many rules. It's more
complicated than the Constitution.

Those things are basic etiquette.

Anyway, who's your pick?

Your pen pal, Do-san?
Or the Do-san you know now?

Well…

If I have to pick one…

Gosh, as if I have time to get jealous.

How could he think
that I might be jealous of him?

Yeong-sil, what is "jealousy"?

"Jealousy" is the title of a TV series.

The final episode aired on July 21, 1992.

Hey! Are you messing with me, too?

What is the definition of the word?

"Jealousy" refers to the feeling you get
when you think

that a person you like
loves someone else more than you--

See? The premise doesn't apply to my case.

It doesn't apply to you?

I WISH YOU SUCCESS

No, it's not like
I have feelings for someone.

So how could I get jealous?
I don't have feelings for anyone.

Then I suppose it's not jealousy.

Right, it's not.

No way.

I WISH YOU SUCCESS

SAMSAN TECH

HERE ARE MY ANSWERS TO YOUR QUESTIONS

FROM: HAN JI-PYEONG
TO: SEO DAL-MI

RECYCLING

When we receive 100 million won,
how should we spend it?

The rate at which a start-up spends money
is called "burn rate."

You need to know your burn rate

-to find out how many months you can last.
-Burn rate is the rate at which a start-up

-Look at your monthly expenses.
-spends money.

As you know, we received

-a hundred million won.
-30 percent is your reserve fund.

Thirty percent of that
should be our reserve fund.

Then we have 70 million left.

Let's allocate ten million won
for our expenses

for transportation, communication,
and equipment.

Then let's say we'll pay ourselves
two million won a month.

-For real?
-For real?

That's peanuts.

-It's too little?
-You think it's a lot?

Yes, we were never able to pay ourselves
for the past two years.

My credit card bills
have never been under two million won.

-Mr. Nam.
-Are you boasting?

I sure am.
It means I made that much money.

Hold on, guys.
That's not the problem here.

That's ten million won for the five of us,
so we'll be able to last six months.

-Six months?
-That's it?

We need to yield good results
in the next six months.

Because Mr. Han said

there will be a demo day in three months,

and all the influential investors
will be there.

I know what it is.
You present your interim results,

and the investors decide
whether they'll invest more.

Oh, like that.

FUNDING STATUS

Gosh.

JUST ONE DAY
FUNDING: 4 BILLION

If you get a billion won,
your company's value…

If you gave ten percent of the shares,
the value would reach ten billion won.

Ten billion?

-Ten billion?
-They got four billion, so…

If they also gave 10 percent,
the value should be 40 billion won.

They've completed their series A.

That's our future.

Well, you guys…

I mean, that could be your future.

What will happen
if we fail to secure further funding?

You have two options.

Earn money by selling your service

or leave.

All right, we need to have a meeting.

-Okay. Hey, come on.
-Let's go.

Hurry.

-Please take good care of this.
-My gosh.

Don't you worry.

I'll get it tested and get back to you
with detailed feedback.

We should pay you for this,
but as you know--

Don't worry. I'm happy to help you out.

I can also help you
with design or marketing.

But you know the drill.

Yes! One percent of the shares.
I'm well aware.

By the way, you have users
to test the product, right?

Well…

Oh, yes. There they are.

-Hey, Do-san!
-Gosh.

What are you doing here?

-Who is he?
-What?

My cousin, Nam Cheon-ho.

Oh, Mr. One Percent?

-Yes, that's me.
-Hello.

What is this?

This is a prototype made by Wepulse,
a team from the tenth residency.

It's called ET, an emotion transistor.

It's a device that expresses
your emotions. I'll show you.

It works like a pulse oximeter.

Blue means you're excited.
When you're lying, you'll see red.

If you're indifferent,
the light will turn off.

This will do that?

What… What are you doing?

-Amazing.
-Amazing.

It really works.

It's very accurate.

But why do we have to test this?

Oh, since it's a prototype,

they need ideas to perfect the product.

I need you all to test it
and give me thorough feedback.

It's good for start-ups
to help each other.

Hey, are they giving you
one percent of their shares?

Yes. That way,
I can become Bonnie Brown of Korea.

Bonnie Brown? Who's that?

An in-house masseuse at Google.

Her stock options made her a millionaire.

She's my role model.

Discover high-potential start-ups.
Help them out using my skill sets

and get one percent of the stock.
One of them will become huge, like Google.

Then I'll become a millionaire!

Just the thought gets me excited.

What are you thinking about?
Yours is blue, too.

Well, I was just thinking
it'd be nice to be one of them.

"One of them"?

What? You mean,
Samsan Tech becoming like Google?

Are you kidding me?

Cheon-ho, this is helpful
when you're making a decision.

-Right?
-Yes.

All right. Get ready for a big surprise.

My solution is brilliant.

It's called "Protect Maesaengi"!

The natural treasure?

That's the leopard cat.
I'm talking about maesaengi!

The seaweed I send to your family
all the time.

Sorry.

My father has a maesaengi farm.

But the ducks eat the leaves like crazy.

That's why my father sits there all day.

Whenever he sees ducks, he rings his bell
to scare them off, but it's useless.

And it's not like he can sit there 24-7.

So what if we can detect those ducks
using our image recognition technology?

The moment they show up,

the horn goes… Boom!

Then the yield will go
from 3,000 to 5,000 tons.

Does it not get you excited?

No, not really.

I guess not.

When you press the start button,
your selfie shows up.

Then your fortune for career, love,
and health will be displayed

based on scientific data.

Physiognomy and image recognition.

My gosh, I'm so excited about this.

But you don't believe in physiognomy.

I do as of today.

Just like you now believe
the blood type personality theory.

The pet economy is booming these days.

But I'm not talking about
predictable pet-commerce.

What if dogs could shop online themselves?

Dogs will shop online? How?

We teach the image recognition software
to read dogs' facial expressions.

It learns to detect
when they're curious about an item

so when the dog makes that expression,
it sends the item to the shopping cart.

That's not a bad idea.

A solid revenue model
and a specific target audience.

By the way, Yong-san.
You look kind of cute with those glasses.

What? "Cute"?

He looks awful.

Like kimchi that has turned sour.

And maesaengi's revenue model is better.

The yearly yield is over 3,000 tons.

I wanted to come up with a solution
that utilizes the algorithm we have.

Look.

The recognition rate is so high.

Of course. From the speed
to the recognition rate,

no one can beat us in this country.

We won the CODA competition
with this technology.

I had this idea a few days ago.

Among the solutions
that use our image recognition…

He still hasn't read it.

-What?
-I'm talking about Mr. Han.

I emailed him the ideas from our meeting.

But it says he still hasn't read it.

And he's not even texting me back.

Oh! That's Mr. Han.

Mr. Han!

Mr. Han!

Mr. Han!

QUESTION BOMBER

He ignored my call on purpose, right?

He must be very busy.
He's been ignoring my calls too.

Really?

What shall we eat?

I'm craving rice because
we ate instant noodles all night.

There's a new restaurant
across the street.

-Do you want to check it out?
-Sure.

I'll have a bowl of rice with kimchi stew

Hey, you're so early!

You guys are working so hard.
Did you stay up all night?

Keep it up.

I thought the twins would leave
after the hackathon.

I'm surprised they're still here.

Right? Looks like they're here to stay.

-That's right. We're here to stay.
-Why?

What the…

Because we can make more profit
by staying.

Hey!

You sneaked up behind us!

-Jeez.
-Where did he come from?

But what do you mean by profit?

Our CEO is competent. She already
managed to land a lucrative gig.

A gig? Care to elaborate?

What the hell?

What kind of gig?

-Jeonghan Bank?
-Yes.

They landed a downsizing project using AI.

They'll get paid 300 million won.

What? What about us? We also used
their data set in the Hackathon.

Ms. Won is very competent.

Competent, my ass.
We all know how she got that project.

-How?
-Her dad pulled some strings, obviously.

Jeonghan Bank CEO and Won Du-jeong
went to middle school together.

Bill Gates said, "Life is unfair.

Get used to it."

Damn it.

-This is the oil you used today, right?
-Yes.

-Would you like to get one?
-Yes.

This credit card has been suspended.

Ma'am, it says that your credit card
has been suspended.

He's doing this again?

We'll talk to them and leave right away.

Hey, In-jae.

I see you here often these days.
What brings you by?

What do you think?
I want to put together a task force

to bring AI technology into distribution.
What do you think?

I want you to be in charge.
Write up a proposal.

I want to help you get started--

No, don't do anything.
You can watch quietly, but that's it.

You brat! Dad just wants to help.

I mean, Ms. Won. I guess
you don't really know the situation.

People are after this project
like a pack of dogs.

Let those dogs do it, then.

Remember the German Shepherd we had?
His name was Taebaek.

You starved him for days because
you wanted to see him eat his poop.

You gave him just enough food to survive,

saying he'd bite us
if we fed him too well.

Yet he still wagged his tail
whenever he saw you, like an idiot.

There are many Taebaeks here.

So find yourself another team.

I won't do it.

-Ms. Yoon.
-Oh, thank you.

I heard Injae Company landed an AI project
Jeonghan Bank is launching.

Yes, I heard.

Won In-jae is impressive, isn't she?

She's already landed
a 300-million-won project.

She doesn't even need a mentor.

I know. She makes my job very easy.

She knows what to do
and how to accomplish it.

But I have to say,

I don't think she knows

why she's doing this.

For money, of course.
What other reason could there be?

Right, it all comes down to money.

It's a good reason and also an honest one.

But I thought

this kid would be different.

I thought she'd find a different reason.
Not money.

Different reason? Like what?

That I don't know yet.

I WANT TO GET MY REVENGE

"Revenge"?

What? That's scary.

Congratulations.

I heard you landed a project
with Jeonghan Bank.

Thank you.

Both your congratulations and my thank you
sound awfully insincere.

I can't congratulate you sincerely
because your achievement isn't real.

Does it look fake to you?

Yes, it does.

But you do seem very lucky
and well-connected.

What everyone else finds difficult

seems so easy for you.

You think I pulled strings?

Why?

I heard the CEO of the bank
and your father went to school together.

My father's company
is also launching an AI project.

It would've been a lot easier for me
to take that on. Why bother with Jeonghan?

THE 12TH HACKATHON

I met someone from the company that day.

You took a nap after the Hackathon,

but I met the man

who was there as a judge.

Then I contacted him

and submitted a proposal.

And my father was not involved at all.

You had your chance, too.
You're incompetent for not seizing it.

Try to learn from my accomplishments.

Luck? Connections?
Stop listing excuses already.

I'm tired of it.

But I thought this kid would be different.

I thought she'd find a different reason.
Not money.

Let me give you a word of advice.

If you want to be considered a real CEO,
don't stand there looking spaced out.

You should run to your office now.

I'm giving you information
on Morning Group's new AI project.

Why should I take on a project
you rejected?

For money.

Don't you need money?

What will you do?

Will you let this opportunity slip away?

Morning Group?

Why? That's random.

But we already have plans
for our business.

We'll delay it a little.

To earn money
so that we can finance the business.

How much can we make?

Fifty million won
for just proposing a solution.

And 300 million won for building it.

And if we manage it for them,
we can expect at least a billion won.

Then we can easily hold out
for three years, not just six months.

And no more running around
trying to secure funding.

What do you think?
I think we should do it.

All right, let's do it.

I'm sorry.

-For what?
-The business you want to start.

It's a great idea,

but you know. It'll cost a lot.

-To make that much money--
-I know.

I'm just worried about you. That's all.

-Me? Why?
-Chairman Won Du-jeong.

Isn't your mom married to him?

Yes.

You don't want to get involved.

Right, I don't.

I hate him more than cockroaches.

So why?

My grandma once told me

that gaining an enemy
is like losing 100 million won,

and gaining an ally is like
earning that much money.

We're already dirt broke,
so we can't lose money and fall into debt.

I'll suck it up and try to gain an ally.

I'm very patient.

Me, too.

You know, my nickname is

LB.

Get it? Living Buddha.

Oh, I see.

-LB for short, you know.
-Yes.

When I get angry…

Gosh.

-I knit.
-What?

-For real.
-Seriously?

Yes. While I'm knitting,
I try to picture it in my head.

-Okay.
-Smashing things

and yelling at people. Stuff like that.

I see.

That helps me calm down.

-Really?
-Yes.

I do that, too.

I always picture myself smashing stuff
and arguing with people.

It's like a blockbuster movie!

-For real?
-Yes, for real!

-You do it, too?
-Yes!

You knit?

No, minus the knitting.

Who knits when they're angry?

I do. I told you just now.

I bet no one else does it.

-I sit like this and knit the knit stitch.
-Yes, show me.

Seriously.

Once, I kept on knitting
until it reached about 2m.

Thinking about the things you'd do
when you're angry

really helps you calm down.
Seriously, believe me.

You haven't changed at all.

You were like this 15 years ago
and even now.

No one understands me better than you do.

You think so?

Dal-mi.

I've changed a lot.

I don't really remember
what happened 15 years ago.

No, actually…
I don't even want to remember that time.

I wish

you hadn't known me back then.

Why?

Because I was a total loser back then.

You always thought highly of me,
but I wasn't like that.

Let's go make some money.

Sir.

Oh, hello.

Just a second.

This is you, right?

Yes, this is me.

-With your pale face and all.
-Yes.

Around 10 at night on May 24th,

you dumped this plant illegally, right?

Right.

What? No, I tossed it
in the recycling bin.

Right, you can't do that!

Then how…

Plants are a little tricky.

The plant itself can be treated
as regular garbage.

Dump the soil in the garden outside.

And that's a ceramic planter,

so get the bag for incombustible waste.

Do you understand?

Say that again?

I said,

the plant itself can be treated

-as regular garbage.
-Regular garbage?

The soil can be dumped anywhere outside.

-No one will say anything.
-I see.

And that's ceramic,
so it's not regular garbage.

It must be discarded in the special bag
for incombustible waste, okay?

It took me two days to track you down.
That alone makes me so angry,

but it's my job,
so I won't get mad at you.

Okay. Non… What?

The special bag for incombustible waste.

Just find it and put that in there.

Oh, you have a nice car.

-Special bag?
-Yes, that's right!

-For incombustible waste?
-The bag for incombustible waste!

Wait, can you…

explain it once more? Where's he going?

Hey, Dong-cheon.

Do you happen to know
where I can get the special bag for…

incombustible waste?
Do you know where I can buy one?

No, no. Incombustible, not "incompatible."

No! It's not a dating site!

Incombustible. As in, it doesn't burn.

Yes, non…

Forget it. I'll figure it out.

I WISH YOU SUCCESS

-Mr. Han.
-God, you scared me.

-What's up?
-You seem very busy these days.

So I was waiting for you.

You didn't answer my calls
and haven't read my email either.

Oh, I've been busy examining investments.

-See you.
-Can you spare me a minute?

We submitted a proposal to Morning Group.

For an organizational downsizing project
using AI technology.

I wanted to let you know.

And here.

What is this?

The bag for incombustible waste.

I went to your office hoping to see you

and happened to overhear
your phone conversation.

Park Dong-cheon…

You're throwing something away?

Yes.

FOR INCOMBUSTIBLE WASTE

Why are you

so nosy?

Sorry? "Nosy"?

I was just trying to help--

You are nosy if you enjoy forcing
unwanted help or advice upon others.

I never asked you to get me this.

Why do something like this and make me…

I don't want help like this.

I'm sorry.

I'll try to be more mindful.

Hold on. This isn't right.

You're the one who started it!

You did all those things to
save my face without asking me.

You let Do-san use your car
and even your place.

You revised my pitch for me

and answered all my questions.

-That's--
-How nosy.

It's too much.

Why tell me not to do it
when you keep doing it?

I want to be nosy, so don't stop me.

You're mad at me now?

If you really don't like it,
ask for help in advance.

Say, "I'm struggling with this.
I need this."

You said it's okay
if you ask for it first.

So if I ask you… What will you do then?

I will help you to the best of my ability.
And I'll be the first one to help you.

Why?

That's…

Because I like how nosy you are.

So…

even if I get all nosy,
just put up with it.

You'll grow to love it.

Your one minute's up.

Sorry, go ahead.

Gosh, this is nuts.

INBOX
FROM: SEO DAL-MI

THIS IS THE FINAL VERSION

SORRY, THIS IS THE REAL FINAL VERSION

She sent you so many emails.
What's the proposal for?

It's Samsan Tech's project proposal
for Morning Group.

AI SOLUTION PROPOSAL

Why so many versions?

I have to say, she has a lot of energy.

"Computerized invoicing system,

and inventory management
using image recognition."

It's pretty good.

I know.

I'm worried because it's good.

2STO is doing so well. I was wondering

why they were interested in Sand Box.
There was obviously a reason.

A reason? Care to elaborate?

The youngsters that come here
are very smart and competent.

You can take them and use them.

"Use them"?

I don't think they were selected
so other companies can "use them."

You try to pick a fight with me
every time I say something.

Dong-cheon.

The chairman of Morning Group
is putting a TF together.

Find out how much he's done so far.

Look at that woman.

This is bigger than a buffet menu.

Crispy chicken! It looks delicious.

Oh, this chair is so comfy.

My gosh, this is so pretty. It's so cute.

Is this brewed coffee?

Kids, I can't believe
you've kept this gem all to yourself.

Bring your mom next time.
She'll love this place.

FINALE ADDICT

WE'RE ROOTING FOR YOUR DREAMS

The person you're trying to reach
is unavailable--

Still not picking up?

No, she's holding out longer
than I expected.

What if she says she wants a divorce?

Then I'll let it be.
She signed the prenup,

so she won't get anything
if we get a divorce.

That woman loves money,
so she won't go there.

What's with them these days?
Both In-jae and this woman.

They used to wag their tails for my money.
Why suddenly act like wild dogs?

Goodness.

Dad, the tech manager told me
something interesting yesterday.

-What?
-It's about the downsizing project.

He said Samsan Tech submitted a proposal.

You know, that girl. Dal…

Yes, I know. Seo Dal-mi,
In-jae's little sister.

That's right. The tech manager said

their proposal is pretty good.

Whatever, they're still clueless rookies.

When's the meeting?

Nice car.
Why didn't you give us a ride sooner?

I hate having other people
ride in my car with me.

It's just this once, okay?

We could've taken the bus.
Why suddenly offer a ride?

You're our CEO.

You need to look like a hotshot,
or people will look down on you.

-Get that out of my face.
-Okay.

You too, Mr. Nam. Stand straight and tall.

Be confident and make eye contact.

Thank you.

We'll land the project
and become a real hotshot.

Gaining an enemy is like losing
100 million won. We need an ally.

-Let's go.
-Okay.

BUSINESS PLAN

Hello, sir.
I'm Seo Dal-mi, CEO of Samsan Tech.

I'm CTO Nam Do-san.

We've met before. Good to see you again.

Yes, great to see you again.

Well, I don't know much about technology.

-If you'll excuse me…
-Are you leaving, sir?

Be good to them.
I've been eyeing them since the Hackathon.

The proposal shows how talented you are.

-And you both seem so nice.
-Thank you.

Stop by my office after.

Have a good meeting.

Let's all sit down.

So you're In-jae's little sister?

-Yes.
-I see. All right.

Since I'm older than In-jae,

I'll consider you my little sister
and talk comfortably.

Dong-cheon, did you look
into Morning Group's project?

Yes. They're saying
Morning Group's AI task force

has already been set up,
including the engineers.

Let me see.

They already have a tech team.

Why did they contact Samsan Tech?

Probably for a part-time gig.
Something they can outsource.

What? A part-time gig?

Pardon? 100,000?

You want us to collect
100,000 image files?

You can buy such data or hire
a part-timer to do the job for you.

We're developers.
You can't expect us to collect 100,000--

Right, we're here
to propose an AI solution to you,

not to collect data.

Jeez, you guys are frustrating me here.

What is AI's basic function?

Collecting data for machine learning.

That is what I'm asking you to do.

Our development team
will create a solution.

Then why did you ask us
to submit a proposal

instead of hiring part-timers
to collect data?

For all 100,000 images?

That will cost too much.

The minimum wage has gone up,
so even hiring students can be so costly.

Also, students wouldn't know
what kinds of images we'd need.

It's a job for AI experts.

That's crazy.

So they're trying to exploit
high-caliber talent?

-Who'd accept that?
-Many people do.

Start-ups need good references.

Many would do whatever it takes
to be able to include

Morning Group's logo
in their company profile.

That's true.

Then the next one will be a bit easier.

I get it, but…

Gosh, seriously. It's so awful.

Will Seo Dal-mi agree
to such an awful, exploitative offer?

It'll be a lot of work,
but it's a good opportunity for you.

It may look like manual labor,
but it'll be a good experience.

What makes youth so special?

Your passion! We want to buy your passion.

Then…

I guess you don't need our solution.

Your solution? Why not?
If it's a good idea, we should use it.

You promised to pay 50 million won
for the solution alone.

I checked your website,
and it looks pretty bare.

You can put our logo on your main page.
"Morning Group's strategic partner."

That's worth a lot more
than 50 million won.

Do you know why I chose Samsan Tech
out of all the candidates?

If you chose to follow your mother,
you'd be my daughter now.

You went through a lot because you didn't.

It would've been nice if you'd chosen
me like your sister.

I always felt bad for you.

Now that I can help you,
I feel a little better…

Shut up.

Dal-mi, I can't work on this project.

Sorry.

That little…

CHAIRMAN'S OFFICE

Do-san! Nam Do-san!

Do-san.

Dal-mi.

I really tried to suck it up
and just do it,

but I can't.

I'm sorry you gained an enemy
because of me,

but this is so wrong.

I'll become more influential
than Won Du-jeong.

A hundred million… No.

You lost 100 million won
because of me, so 200 million…

No.

I'll bring you ten billion won.

So forget about this project and--

You caught me off guard, Dal-mi.

-Do-san.
-Yes?

Let's forget about this project

and work on that thing.

"That thing"?

The idea you told us about the other day.

I had this idea a few days ago.

Among the solutions
that use our image recognition…

How about an app for the visually
impaired? What do you think?

-The visually impaired?
-That's random.

-How?
-What?

If this is voice-operated
like GPS navigation systems…

Pen.

"There is a door 2m ahead."
That's how it'll work.

Why didn't I think of this?

I lost my vision for a moment
because of that milk bomb, you know.

I felt so lost when that happened.

I tried to imagine what it'd be like.

It makes me feel

as though something
really bad has happened.

I'd be devastated.

As if my life will be
completely destroyed.

And so scared.

But you know,

that's

not going to help my eyes get better.

If their vision can't be restored,

how about we try to have our technology
act as their eyes?

What do you think?

I got goosebumps thinking maybe
this is why I got into image recognition.

Am I the only one? Is it weird?

Let's do it. I was very excited
when you told us that idea.

It won't be profitable.

But

it'll be fun.

We can only hold out for six months.

That also means we're free to do
whatever we want within those six months.

You're reckless.

Well, we'll just get lost.

"Sail off without a map." Remember?

SPECIAL THANKS TO MOON SE-YUN

-Dal-mi.
-Yes?

Which Do-san do you like better?

What do you mean?

The one who used to write you letters
15 years ago

or the one you met again as an adult?

What kind of question is that?

Why separate the two? It's the same guy.

I know that.

But if we were to separate the two,

which Do-san would you pick?

Well…

If I have to pick one…

I'd still pick the one who wrote me
those letters 15 years ago.

FLOWER SHOP

NUTRIENTS FOR PLANTS

So the old Do-san?

Yes.

Because he's my first love.

I care about him a lot,
and I'm grateful to him.

I WISH YOU SUCCESS

What about Do-san as you know him now?

The Do-san I know now…

I'm still getting used to him.

I'll become more influential
than Won Du-jeong.

A hundred million… No.

You lost 100 million won
because of me, so 200 million…

He's like a different person at times.

-No.
-That makes me a little sad, but…

I'll bring you ten billion won.

So forget about this project and--

But for some reason,

those few odd moments here and there
excite me

and make my heart flutter.

For some people, what's ordinary to us
isn't ordinary at all.

I want our technology to help them.

The more users, the higher the cost.
Who'd invest in this?

It's the same as Do-san's.

My birthday.

Hand the CCTV footage
over to the legal team.

What if we can't reach an agreement?

You could get hurt.

Do-san.

If the both of you get down on your knees,
then I might drop the charges.

I'm on the edge of a precipice now.
