Episode 6

President Nam is on his way
to BK Group right now.

I think he's selling the company.

It's me.

Is it true that BK is looking
to buy out Century Thermos?

Yes.

We're signing the deal today.

Let's go.

This way, sir.

The elevator's very fast.

It must rack up a sizeable electric bill.

Don't just stand there. Get him!

Let go.

Let go of me.

Hang on.

Darn it.

Come on.

It's just not possible.

You can't get to Mr. Baek's office.

But I can't sit back and let this happen.

I can get to the rooftop, right?

I'm here to see the chairman.

I'm sorry, but who should
I tell him is here to see him?

Tell him it's Baek Hyeonjin.

President Nam!

Don't sign that!

Don't sign it!

We can save Century Thermos.

I guarantee it.

Security, there's someone hanging
outside the reception room.

Taebaek.

How did you know to come here?

Wait, I'm coming in.

Why doesn't this open?

I think it's locked from inside.
Could you open it for me?

I'm sorry for the trouble.

How dare you?

Let's not resort to violence.

The police just got here.

Let's go.

Don't you dare lay a finger on
the woman in Mr. Baek's office.

If you do, I'll hunt you down
and make sure you pay.

You should leave, miss.

Not unless Mr. Baek gives this up.

She's my daughter.

I spoiled her. She's still immature.

Please understand.

Don't sign the deal.

I know it's not easy, but please reconsider.

You shouldn't poke your nose into this.

Stop being a brat and go.

No, sir.

I'm not going anywhere
until you give up the deal.

What's keeping you, Mr. Kim?

Sir.

I'm sorry.

Please stop.

Don't hand over your company, President Nam.

Dad!

Don't sell.

Let's revive the company.

I'll help.

Don't get swept up in the moment.

Someone who shares no special ties with us

risked his life to save the company,

while I, your son, was going to
great lengths to keep my measly job.

It's high time I found my place.

Thank you.

Let's go, father.

Do you think this will bring
your company back onto its feet?

You're right.

Century Thermos could very well
disappear tomorrow.

Be that as it may,
at least we made thermoses

strong and sturdy enough to last a century.

I'd say that alone is worth everything.

You've done a great job of raising
a fine daughter, Mr. Baek.

Let's go.

Things didn't go your way this time, Mr. Baek.

Are you happy now that you've
botched my lifelong dream?

When will you stop being a brat?

Will you be satisfied if I get
down on my knees before you?

I'm not asking you to be a good father.

But you can at least be an upright man.

Sometimes 10,000 can eat
at the cost of 100 going hungry.

That's always been my guiding principle.

And that's what the world
wants of me as well.

And that's why to me,
you will always just be Mr. Baek.

You're my daughter, and I'm your father.

That's an immutable truth.

Yes. That's why I'm ashamed.

I'm ashamed that you're my father.

I don't need a daughter
who's ashamed of me either.

Get out right now!

Mom always said she felt sorry for you.

But as for me, I can't even pity you.

Director Kang.

What is it?

There's a problem on the
Century Thermos front.

What?

It's been a few days since
this video has gone viral.

It's a short documentary about
President Nam of Century Thermos.

Who made this?

And say it curbs
the use of disposable cups,

like we're cheering on the race
to be eco-friendly.

Dimwits. Listen.

Those kind of comments are useless.

People who've used the product
will post comments to that effect.

Then should we just sit and do nothing?

Ms. Gong.

Get ready to fire off a post.

Go ahead.

Who's this GRC that made this video?
I should ask them to make my ad.

Boss, that's embarrassing.

There's not much to advertising.

This is how you advertise yourself.

Don't putz around,
and post comments about GRC.

If the preview is creating such a buzz,

imagine the sensation
the actual ad will become.

Will Ma Jinga make it big time now?

Do you think Taebaek is okay?

We can't get in touch with him.

Don't worry.

He'd find a way to survive
even if he were left in a desert.

Let's see. Who'd be
a good director for our ad?

Taebaek, are you okay?

I'm fine, so get back to
what you have to do.

We'll get you out, so hang in there.

I'm fine. I'm looking forward
to some prison food.

Don't worry about me and go.

And not a peep to the folks at GRC.

If they find out,
they'll worry themselves sick.

Keep it down, please.

Sorry.

He didn't commit a heinous crime.
Why does he have to be locked up?

He should've known better.

What was he thinking,
messing with BK's chairman?

You should beg and plead
for forgiveness over at BK.

That's your only option.

Mr. Kim, this is Hyeonjin.

Does she not care whether
my business goes belly up,

or whether I'm reeling
in emotional anguish?

You know how she is.
She's soft-hearted.

Who was the fellow hanging off
our building anyway?

I'll try to get a hold of
the police report, sir.

Call Geum San Ad's Director Kang and
tell him I need to see him today.

Yes, sir.

You're my daughter, and I'm your father.

That's an immutable truth.

I don't need a daughter
who's ashamed of me either.

Get out right now!

You did create some wind,

but you failed to blow out the candle.

I'm sorry, sir.

I'll be held accountable
however you see fit.

Held accountable?

In what manner?

I'll give up on BK Group's
corporate identity project, sir.

Given the delay in the relocation of
our headquarters, we don't know when

we can start the CI project,
so what you propose is useless.

I'm sorry, sir.

I don't want to hold you
accountable anyway,

but there's something
I'd like you to do for me.

There's an intern at your company
by the name of Baek Jiyun.

That's correct.

She's my daughter.

She is?

Fire her.

Why no answer?

I don't think I can do that, sir.

Ms. Baek Jiyun is doing
an excellent job as an intern.

She's passionate about advertising
and is talented as well.

She came up with the copy
for the Daesung Auto ad.

I don't think I can fire someone
without any cause.

Are you saying my request
is unreasonable?

I hope that I'm not
overstepping my bounds,

but if this is out of concern
for your daughter,

I think it would be best for you
to let her stay at Geum San Ad.

Why is that?

The Ms. Baek I know will
not leave the ad industry

even if she's fired from Geum San Ad.

What concerns me is that
if she's forced to leave Geum San,

she may end up working
at some tiny ad agency.

I don't know if you're simply
watching out for your staffer

or driven by an ulterior motive,

but I suppose you're right.

Whether it's the CI project
or other things,

I'm going to take my time
and see what you're about.

Understood?

I'll keep that in mind.

If you wanted a drink,
we could've met at a bar.

It's more comfortable here.

How did your meeting with Mr. Baek go?

- It wasn't bad, but...
- So?

Is he giving us the CI project or not?

I didn't get any confirmation.

That conniving old man won't
give it to you that easily.

Things worked themselves out
with the Home Tech deal,

but the CI project is
something else entirely.

You never change.

Mom always said you only
focused on the negative,

so it was very tough for her.

Are you suggesting I'm to blame
for your mother's condition?

Depression is curable with
the right treatment.

I'm not so sure.

Popping a few pills certainly
didn't make her happy.

She divorced me and moved to the States.
Shouldn't she be happy?

What else do you want from me?

What have you ever done for us?

Mom always needed someone
to take care of her.

And it was me who had to
take care of her since I was 14.

What about me?

Do you think I had it easy in Korea?

The hospital bills and everything else
you and your mother spent in America

came from me!

What we needed then wasn't money.

It was you.

So it is your fault that
mom got remarried

and that her depression worsened.

And so have you come
back for revenge?

I can't afford to waste my emotional
energy on something like that.

Then why?

Why have you come to work for me?

I don't plan to make this
a long-term arrangement.

BK Group is planning to turn
itself into a media giant

with newspaper, TV, film
and advertising divisions.

The corporate identity project
is part of this grand plan.

I'm thinking of making my way
up to the very top.

No matter how talented you are,
they will not give that to you.

Don't you know that
the apex of the pyramid

is for corporate royal families only?

That's why I'll try to become
part of a royal family.

Mr. Lee Taebaek.

Come out.

Am I being released?

Consider yourself lucky.

BK withdrew their suit.

You can go now.

You're going to catch a cold.

Are you okay?

Did someone hit you?
Was it the BK security staff?

I just got scratched up
on my way down on the rope.

What happened with
President Nam's company?

He didn't sign the deal.

What a relief.

I didn't know what happened.
I was worried sick.

But how did you know
to show up there anyway?

I was there for an ad project,
and one thing led to another.

You're a reckless one, aren't you?

What if you lose your job over this?

What are you looking for?

Here it is.

I have something for cracked or cut lips.

Isn't it bad to smear that just anywhere?

It's fine. It won't kill you.

You're a quack.

Hold still and tilt your head up 30 degrees.

I didn't know

how nervous I could get from having
someone put ointment on me.

Hold still, will you?

Do you know something?

You're like a kid who's
run away from home.

You have me worried all the time.

Then stay worried.

I'm seeing you home tonight,
and don't say no.

I'll be fine.

You tended to me after my incarceration,
so let me take you home.

Incarceration? Good grief.

You must be cold. Here.

Put it on. Come on.

Oh, right.

Let me give this back to you.

The coffee you brought me that night
gave me the boost I needed.

Keep it. I got it for you as a gift.

Really?

To be honest, I felt a bit sad
to part with it.

Thank you.

I was a bit upset that day.

Why?

Why didn't you tell me
you were working on BK's ad?

I told you. I couldn't tell you
due to security reasons.

Aren't we closer than that?

I don't think so.
How close did you think we were?

If you had told me you needed
GRC's marketing plan,

I would've snuck it out for you.

Why?

Yeah. Why?

Because we're partners.

I'll let you know if I ever need it.
Don't do an about-face then.

Are you tired?

Yes, I am tired.

Wake me up when we get to my stop.

Okay.

They say people think a lot
when they go to jail, right?

You only spent half a day in a holding cell.

Nevertheless, I was locked up.

In any case, it occurred to me that

you and I have been through
this and that together.

So I was thinking,

why don't you come and
work with me at GRC?

Think about it. We could have
raided Mr. Baek's office together.

We can work together on ad proposals.

Don't worry about the pay.

I'll get Mr. Ma to cut you a good deal.

The problem is insurance,

but I...

I'll take care of you so that
you don't get hurt or sick.

What do you think?

Ms. Baek Coffee?

They call this a soliloquy, right?

Yup, I just delivered a soliloquy.

Tender your resignation
if this is how you're going to be.

Did you expect a single phone call
was all you needed to get the day off?

Where did you pick up habits like this?

The office isn't a place where
you come and go as you please.

I'm sorry.

Cut her some slack.
I'm sure she had her reasons.

What?

When did you hand over
your bad-guy role to me?

Ms. Lee, Director Kang will be here
any minute, so please stop.

He's here. Ms. Baek, take your seat.

Go on.

Ms. Baek.

Yes?

Is Geum San Ad trifling and
inconsequential to you?

Pardon?

You know very well that

there are many people out there
desperate to get an internship

even at a small ad agency.

If it hadn't been for you,

one of those people would be here,
working hard for his or her dream.

Am I mistaken?

Don't take other people's
dreams and passion lightly.

You don't have to attend
our meetings for the time being.

You can go.

Sir,

have you seen the clip
about President Nam?

Yeah, I did.

Why?

Public opinion is in their favor right now.

I don't think we should

put pressure on Century Thermos
for the time being, sir.

What do you think about Addie Kang?

If we play our cards right, he'll come
in handy in acquiring Century Thermos.

What happened yesterday?

You haven't heard?

It was like a scene out of
an action movie.

It was just me against all of BK Group.

Never mind.

Grab something and start cleaning.

Why the big cleanup?

The boss ordered it.
Hurry up and do your share.

He said the office should be spotless,
since advertising folks will be

dropping in at all hours.

- Where's the boss?
- In the back room.

He's been on the phone for two hours.

I think he's bipolar.

That hurts coming from a director like you.

This is Ma Jinga we're talking about.

Ma Jinga, the adman with the golden touch.

I swear, dude.

I'm returning to the ad industry.

You can call it the return of the king.

Hello? Hello?

Why does the battery die
at a critical moment like this?

Twerp, what time is it?
Why are you so late?

Don't you know punctuality
is a must in the ad industry?

I was in a holding cell until
the wee hours of the morning.

Why?

Don't get me started.
I went head to head with BK Group all alone.

Enough yapping.

Look at the time.

We have to be at Century Thermos by 3:00,

so go get the schedule. Move, move.

What are you saying, sir?

Thanks to you, we're back on our feet
and have also gotten enough exposure.

We're selling more thermoses
than we can make.

Thank you very much.

Be that as it may, we should
still make the pacemaker ad.

The thing is, we've run into a problem.

There was a fire at one of
the homeless shelters we sponsor.

We think we should send them
the money we allocated for the ad.

That is, if you two are okay with that.

You do that.

The shelter comes first.

We can make the ad some other time.

What is it?

Nothing.

You should do good deeds.

I'm sorry.

I'll issue you the check for
your services right away, though.

But if you ever make an ad,
you have to let us do it, okay?

Of course.

Cheer up.

We can get another deal.

I'm sure GRC has gotten exposure
through the Century clip.

Exposure, my foot.

Darn it.

Come on. Ms. Gong said
she's gotten several calls already.

Whatever. I'm sick and tired of it all.

Darn it.

It's so weird. It's been a couple days
since phone inquiries totally ended.

We're only getting inquiries for flyers.

I only picked up a few wrong numbers.

Let's be patient.

Once word gets around,
the phone will ring off the hook.

This is GRC.

Pardon?

We don't have money to buy land.

Where are you going?

If you're making a sales call,
I'll come with you.

Let him be. He gets like that
every once in a while.

Come on. Is he going through puberty?

You said a potential client
for an ad had called.

Who was it?

Pardon?

What are you talking about?
President Ma? A whistleblower?

The product he was to make an ad for
must have been defective,

so he went public with it.

An adman is supposed to embellish
a product, not disclose its defects.

Needless to say, the ad industry
was turned upside down.

It happened a long time ago,
but the ad industry is a small world.

Industry insiders don't easily
forget such a huge incident,

and our company president
must have heard about it.

I see.

I don't know the details,
but Mr. Ma is not a backstabber.

Couldn't you persuade
the president of your company?

Frankly, no product is free of defects.

For a business,
it makes sense to avoid an agency

whose president is
an infamous whistleblower.

You'll probably have a hard time getting
work from other companies as well.

As smart as Director Kang is,
he must not be a math person.

What's Geum San Construction's
$30 million minus BK's $5 million?

We're here to figure out
how to deal with this.

Venting frustrations won't
do us any good.

None of this will be your concern
once you step down,

but I'll always be here with
the higher-ups nagging me.

I don't care for your insinuation.

I only have two things to say.

First, I apologize.

Second, I'll make up

the $25 million by the end of this quarter.

You do know how to read
the calendar, right?

The end of this quarter is
right around the corner.

I know. I'll have to do well.

You're on the chopping block
and yet you're not flinching.

You're so cool, Director Kang.

You two should draw straws,
flip a coin or whatever,

as one of you will have to resign

if you can't make up the loss.

What did Mr. Baek say?

I'm not sure.

There's no knowing what
he's really thinking.

So the BK deal is out of the window too.

By the way,

you talked about becoming part
of a corporate royal family.

Are you seeing one of
Mr. Baek's daughters or what?

I'll tell you when things are set in stone.

You shouldn't rule out
eloping with her if you can.

Whether through business or love,

you need to seal the deal
as soon as possible.

What?

You know President Choi
of Choi-Ko Foods, right?

I heard you once did an ad for them.

I do know him.

What about Choi-Ko Foods?

They're launching a new product.

They are?

All you need to do is
introduce him to me.

I'll take care of the rest.

The scarlet letter hasn't faded yet?

The scarlet letter never fades.

Geez! It's been years though.

Try to live comfortably.

The recession is driving folks
out of the industry.

Why are you trying to make
a belated comeback?

Your condition must have flared up again.

Stop, okay?

Let go!

Your dad is having a hard time.

Director Kang.

Don't tell me you're ignoring me
because I reprimanded you earlier.

No, of course not.

Are you done for the day?

Yes.

That's good.

If you're free, could you help me out?

Climbing is actually harder than it looks.

A beginner may find it stressful.

Are you sure you want to do this?

I'll give it a shot.

If you don't plan your ascent,
your climb can be very difficult.

How should I do this?

All this talking is useless.

Just follow me.

Oh, right.

If the knots aren't tight enough,
you'll fall before you know it.

You could get hurt.

Not bad for your first try.

Just follow me then.

Why don't I chart our path?

Director Kang.

Just follow me.

Are you okay?

You should've put more chalk
on your hands.

I'm fine.

Could you give me a hand though?

I'd like to make it to the top
since I've come all this way.

Of course.

Here.

Is your stress gone now?

Yes.

Good. I had fun today too.

I can ask for your help when
I get stressed again, right?

Sure.

Thank you for everything. Drive safely.

Good night.

Oh, geez! Aunt Miok, you startled me.

You little fox.

Who's the guy?

Our division director.

He's a dreamboat.
No wonder you've fallen for him.

Who says I've fallen for him?

Oh, really? You can't fool me, sweetheart.

- It's not true.
- It's so true.

Let's go in. Stop staring.

Are you okay?

Things must be going well.

What?

With that director of yours.

How would you know?

It's written all over your face that
you're in a romantic relationship.

What are you talking about?

But...

Director Kang did seem to have
a certain appeal today.

Good for you.

It was always my dream to go out
with someone at work.

We're not going out.

Boss.

Cheer up.

I'll do whatever it takes to get you
to make ads again.

Dream on.

Ichan, when did he start drinking...

We need to talk, so step out for a second.

It's high time you left GRC.

What do you mean?

Why would I leave GRC?

Before you came, things were calm,
and dad was at peace.

But ever since you came, it's been
one crazy thing after another.

But isn't it fun and exciting?
This is life, you know?

Thanks to me,
Mr. Ma is back in the ad industry.

Shut up and get lost.

Dad became a drunkard after he
was driven out of the ad industry.

It was because of his drinking
that mom divorced him.

He finally managed to sober up and
was doing well making signboards.

Don't you dare try to pull him back
into his worst nightmare.

I won't let you,

so stop stirring up a hornet's nest

and make yourself scarce.

I didn't know why

the legendary Ma Jinga was
rotting away in a dump like this,

but now I get it.

It was because of his infantile son.

What did you say?

Ma Ichan.

It's not me who should disappear
from Mr. Ma's life, it's you.

Do you want to die?

Do you really think

that he was happy being away
from the ad industry?

Has it ever occurred to you that

he gave up his dream
and his love of advertising

because he didn't want you
to see him struggle?

From what I've seen,

Mr. Ma was at his best when he
was working on the pacemaker ad.

Mr. Ma, I mean, your father

should be allowed to soar.
Don't hold him back anymore.

What's all this ruckus?
Can't a man get some sleep?

Aren't you curious why
I left the ad industry?

I got the general idea from
a marketing rep I met earlier today.

What was the product
you blew the whistle on?

Baby formula.

I came to learn that the formula
contained harmful substances.

The client said the amount was miniscule
and posed no health risks,

but a miniscule amount
isn't miniscule to a baby, is it?

An adman sells products,
not his conscience.

Be that as it may,
you went public with your findings?

What a smart move.

It was smart of me, wasn't it?

So I was branded a whistleblower and
ousted from the advertising world.

That's why it won't help you
to stick around me.

Why didn't you tell me sooner?

If I had known,
I never would've come to GRC.

That's why I had refused
to take you under my wing.

Just go then.

How can you read the minds
of millions of consumers,

but you can't read the mind
of your only apprentice?

Look.

I've nothing more to teach you,

and you won't be able to make ads
if you stay with me.

Do you know what the
shortcut to success is?

Sticking close to someone
who's already succeeded,

not someone like me.

That's why you need to stick close to me.

What do you mean?

How else will you regain
your former glory, if not by

sticking close to someone
who will be a success?

Ma Jinga,

I'll carry you on my back and run
until your wounds have healed.

I'll be your legs,

so please be my eyes.

Get on my back.

What are you doing? Get on my back.

Give me a break.

Show up on time tomorrow,
or I'm giving you the boot.

Take me in as your apprentice.

The legendary Ma Jinga
shouldn't be rotting away

in this shabby hole in the wall
for his peace of mind.

I'll oil you and polish you.

The legendary Ma Jinga shall
reign supreme once again.

To become an exceptional adman,

you need to dream of failure
beyond anyone's wildest imagination.

But there's a 1% chance we might win.

Thank you.

To me, that 1% is like 100%.

We're admen,

so express your discontent and
sense of injustice in your ads

for the world to see. Why?

Because that's our calling.

[Trio behind Choi-Ko Foods'
hit advertisement]

Good morning.

Ta-da.

What do you think?

Awesome, right?

Clothes really do make the man.

Don't I look like a totally different person?

I prefer your usual look.

Good grief.

How can you do design work with
that kind of aesthetic sensibility?

What's going on?

Where are you going
dressed up to the nines?

Where do you think I'm going?

I'm off to get us ad work.

Ad work?

See how the maestro does it.

Follow me.

Dad, stop.

You can't go without
your trademark Ma Jinga cap.

I did a fine job raising my son.

Yeah.

Ma Jinga can't be without his cap, can he?

Choi-Ko Foods?

They're famous for instant noodles, right?

Yup.

Do you know Choi-Ko Instant Noodles?

Of course I do.
I loved that when I was little.

The person who made the ad that
turned the noodles into a bestseller

was yours truly.

Really? Wow.

But wouldn't they be reluctant
about having us do their ad too?

When I was branded a whistleblower

and leading a drunken
and unproductive live,

Choi-Ko Foods approached me
and asked me to do their ad.

They did?

Yup.

They said they didn't care
as long as they got a good ad.

They said it would be good,
as they'd come across as ethical.

So? Did you do it?

Nope.

My confidence and motivation
were at rock bottom then.

What about now?

Both my confidence and motivation
are at their peak.

Everyone tells me just how talented
President Kang's son is.

Thank you, sir.

But let me ask you something.

Do you like instant noodles?

Instant noodles require

a certain understanding of Korean
psyche and culinary preferences.

You can't make a good ad otherwise.

Do you still think you can pull this off?

Don't you think my overseas background
would be a plus rather than a minus

in creating an ad for your new product?

How so?

The Korean palette and lifestyle
are rapidly westernizing.

I don't think we can make
a good instant noodle ad

without honing in on this consumer trend.

These are the ads Director Kang has made
since joining Geum San Ad.

You've pretty hands.

Nice and slender.

Good.

Pardon?

I've a good feeling about this.

Let's churn out a good ad.

I may not know much,

but I do know I can make
a killer instant noodle ad.

Why is that?

I had no money, so I basically survived
on instant noodles into my late teens.

Oh?

Aren't they from Geum San?

You're right.

So we meet again.
What brings you here?

You sure take a lot of interest in me

when I couldn't care less
what you're up to.

You're not very astute, are you?

You can't even distinguish between
a perfunctory greeting and interest.

I saw the BK thermos ad
Geum San Ad made,

and I don't think you're that astute either.

We should get going.

You saw the Century Thermos
video that GRC made, right?

That was the fruit of my
collaborative effort with Mr. Ma.

How can an ad that cost millions

lose to user-created content
that cost nothing at all.

Someone with common sense
would know the difference

between competence and luck and
between an ad and a video clip,

which means you must not
even have common sense.

What did you say?

You're Mr. Ma Jinga, right?

It's hard to be so popular.

Everyone in the industry
knows who I am.

Of course.
You're the most famous whistleblower.

What?

Whistlerblower and loser...

It's a match made in heaven.

Are you done talking?

Is he itching to get killed?

Oh, right.

You must be here to get an ad deal,
but you're too late.

President Choi has already confirmed
that he'll give the deal to Geum San Ad.

He's the biggest jerk I've ever met.

That was nothing compared to what he
put me through with the Daesung Auto ad.

What's his name anyway?

Addie Kang or something like that.

It's always the incompetent ones
who use English names.

So what are we going to do?

Is Choi-Ko Foods a lost cause?

They say crisis is opportunity.

This is for the better.

How so?

Choi-Ko Foods is run by a couple.
The husband, Choi, is president,

and his wife, Ko, is vice president.
Hence the company's name.

They make all important decisions together,

but the two don't get along at all.

So if we get Vice President Ko
to side with us,

we've a shot at getting the deal.

You want to make our ad?

But you said no when
we approached you.

Back then,

I wasn't confident I could make
the best possible ad.

You know how I am.
I don't make an ad

unless I know I can make the best.

Is this the fellow who made
that ad for the homeless?

Nice to meet you, ma'am.
My name is Lee Taebaek.

He's sharp and authentic.

I don't want to brag about my own,
but he's simply the best.

You and I go way back,
so I'd like you to make our ad.

But you've been away
from the action so long,

and it's not easy to get
my husband's approval.

From what I've heard, President Choi

is set on having Geum San Ad do it,
the company where Kang Hancheol is.

Is that true?

Have I ever passed on
groundless rumors?

Start on the marketing plan
and ad design.

I'll look into this and get back to you.

Thank you.

What happened?

She did an about-face at the
mention of Kang Hancheol.

Her husband was caught

having an affair with a model a while back.

It was Kang Hancheol who
introduced the model to him.

So Vice President Ko must consider
Kang Hancheol her sworn enemy.

Kang Hancheol's my sworn enemy too.

Why?

It was Kang Hancheol who effectively

turned the ad industry against me.

Keep a close eye on Choi-Ko Foods.

But I thougt we had gotten
President Choi's confirmation.

Wouldn't it be better to get started
on the marketing plan?

Did we sign a written contract?

I understand.

Director Kang...

I'll get going then.

Thanks for your hard work.

This is good.

Climbing must have really helped.

Thank you.

Work efficiency has gone up
while stress has dropped.

We'll have to do it often.

Ms. Baek.

Yes?

Do you want to share
what's made you so happy?

There's nothing to share.

Are you free this evening?

Do you have something for me to do?

Why don't you and I go out for a drink?

Pardon?

We should clink glasses.

If there's something you'd like to tell me,
please just go ahead.

Earlier today,

I ran into Taebaek.

We went to see a potential client,
and he happened to be there.

Things go badly whenever I run into him.

We used to be friends at one point,

so the current situation
does make me feel bad.

Ms. Ko, why are you telling me all this?

At first, I wasn't comfortable
seeing the two of you together,

but I'm okay with it now.

I'm sure you know,
but Taebaek's a good guy.

I want you to be there for him.

I know Mr. Lee is a good person,
and I'm rooting for him,

but we're just friends.

This is something we could
have discussed at the office.

You didn't have to spend
your money like this.

This is to butter you up.

Pardon?

I've been doing nothing but work,
so I don't have many friends.

Will you be my drinking buddy?

Alcohol doesn't taste good
when you drink alone.

When I first saw you, Ms. Ko,

I mean,

Ari, do you know how stunned I was?

How can a woman be so beautiful?

Is she a crane?
Why are her legs so long and lean?

Do you know what
my first impression of you was?

What did you think of me?

I couldn't stand you.

What?

When I stepped into the meeting room,

you were listening so intently
with your eyes sparkling.

It made me feel pressured.

It bothered me.

Why did that bother you?

Since unfettered competition
is the rule of the game,

people like you are potential threats.

My policy is to crush anyone who
shows the slightest sign of promise.

Wow, that's scary.

I'll have to make sure I'm on your side.

Yup.

Let's toast to that.

I'll be right back.

[Lee Ganpan]

You've reached Baek Jiyun's cell phone.

Where's Ms. Baek?

Is it Taebaek?

It's me.

What's going on?

Hey.

Sit down.

Here.

Want a drink?

First tell me what's going on?

Don't give me that suspicious look.

We were working through
some of our past issues,

and we drank a lot.

I was thinking you and I could also

let bygones be bygones
over a few drinks.

What happened today is
bound to happen again.

Director Kang definitely crossed the line,

but you need to back off too.

Rubbing him the wrong way
will only hurt you.

That's what I wanted to tell you.

I'll be off then.

Are you okay?

Yeah. I'm fine.

I didn't drink that much.

Don't drive, take a cab.

Okay, I will.

Bye.

Wake up.

Wake up!

What's going on?

Lee Ganpan.

What brings you here?

Why did you drink so much?

Oh, right.
Because the drinks were free, right?

Yup.

How did you know?

Nothing tastes better than free drinks.

Okay, come on. Let's get you home.

- Are you okay?
- Hey.

Like I said, I'm not drunk.

I swear. Want to see
how straight I can walk?

Are you okay?

What's this doing on the ground?

Aren't you hurt? Are you okay?

I'm fine. I'm perfectly fine. See?

You're bleeding.

It hurts, doesn't it?

Not at all.

That's weird. Why doesn't it hurt?

I really don't feel a thing.

Okay, you need to get on my back.

No, thanks. Don't fuss over me.

I don't like being a nuisance.

I'm strong and independent.
I want to get home on my own.

You should go.

Boy, you're stubborn.

Just get on my back.

Oh!

I'm a lot heavier than I look,
let me down.

Let me down!

Hold still!
