When did this break off?

Jeez.

I need to get a new one.

Wait.

I shouldn't waste anything.

Right.

Right, right.

I was thrifty to a fault

and saved up

KRW 105,200 in a week.

I'll get KRW 100 mil. seed money

in no time.

KRW 105,200 in a week.

That's KRW 420,800

in a month.

That's KRW 5 mil. and 49,600

in a year.

To get to KRW 100 mil...

Huh?

19.8...

20 years?

"In no time," my foot!

I'll be half a century old.

No way.

How can I save up faster?

A good way to cut back on spending habits

is the super frugal method of

spending only KRW 10,000 a day.

It's the KRW 10,000 calendar.

Don't be indebted to tomorrow's me.

Spending only KRW 10,000.

You can do it, right?

Yes.

This is a KRW 10,000 calendar I made.

Project Spend KRW 10,000 a Day.

Until the day I become a home owner,

today's me will never be indebted

to tomorrow's me.

Dragon

I hope you succeed.

Fight on.

Secretary Hwang

Yes, what is it?

Sir, there's a buyer for the place you're living in.

Good.

I'll sign the contract and move out tomorrow.

Hello. Good morning.

- Good morning. - Good morning.

Are you okay?

Huh? About what?

You lost KRW 5 mil. because of the armchair incident.

Oh, that.

The CEO said the company will pay the expenses.

Really? No way!

Really?

I was so worried. That's wonderful!

That heartless man who only knows money?

It happened while doing company work.

If the company didn't take responsibility,

he worried there'd be problems with the Labor Law.

I guess he got legal counsel in case you sued.

Still, it's not like him to be so generous.

Anyway, I'm happy for you.

Your life was rough but it may be getting better.

Thank you.

Next is the new advertisement we got.

Where is it?

We get rid of athlete's foot that never dies just like zombies Athlete's Foot Zombie

They want this as an advertorial in this month's issue.

The ad fee is 30% higher than others.

Chief Editor, put this in this month's issue.

Sir? I don't think we can...

All the spots are full.

Then shorten the Special article and put this in.

Sir?

Sir, this isn't right.

An athlete's foot ad in Monthly Magazine House?

It's hideous.

Before you became the CEO,

we carefully selected ads and ran them minimally.

Maintaining dignity is first priority.

- Is that so? - Yes.

Then dropping is the only way.

That's right.

We should drop this ad...

Not the ad. You, Chief Editor.

If you don't agree with me, I'll drop you.

From this company.

I'll calmly put the ad in.

As long as I'm CEO, dignity isn't first priority.

Maintaining money is.

If it makes money,

I will run it.

Understand?

Rats!

The industry's most dignified magazine has fallen.

Nothing will change by grumbling.

Editor Yeo, make your dobira one page. Put it in there.

Dobira Slang for mid-cover in the magazine industry

Not my article!

Used as a notice board to notify the start of an article or as a border to divide sections

Tell Editor Nam to do it.

You crazy?

My article is a special about

Korea's architectural legend the late Lee Dong-wook.

If it becomes the facing page of the athlete's foot ad,

Facing page Facing the ad

the bereaved family will be so angry.

And my luxury interior article?

The page next to a single-page ad in a magazine

It's okay to be the facing page of the ad?

You really want to know?

Both of you, shut up!

Enough.

Help me out here. Come on.

Cut yours this time, Editor Yeo.

Next time this happens, I'll cut his twice.

Okay?

Darn it!

This is insane.

I'm so stressed!

To blow off steam, let's get sweet coffee.

You're buying?

Me?

You crazy?

Editor Na, you buy.

Me?

You don't have to pay KRW 5 mil. for the armchair.

Don't feign ignorance now.

No way.

She might be hungry, but she saved KRW 5 mil.

You're buying, right?

Jeez.

You took pity on her yesterday,

but what use was that?

You're sucking her dry.

Sucking her dry?

She saved KRW 5 mil. She can buy a cup of coffee.

Right? Editor Na?

So? What do you say?

- You're buying, right? - You're buying, right?

- You're buying? - You're buying?

You're buying?

Alright.

- She's buying! - She's buying!

She's buying!

It'll cost about KRW 20,000

I swore not to be indebted to tomorrow's me.

But I can't say no.

Hey, tomorrow's me.

I'm sorry, but you're KRW 10,000 is mine.

Editor Na Zero-won?

Yes.

Thanks to you using company funds,

she doesn't have to spend KRW 5 mil.

So I told her to buy us coffee.

I did well, right?

If you decide on what to drink,

text Mi-ra, please.

This is a KRW 10,000 calendar I made.

Project Spend KRW 10,000 a Day.

Until the day I become a home owner,

today's me will never be indebted

to tomorrow's me.

Should I not take out the whipped cream?

Stop going back and forth.

Who's going back and forth?

I only go forth.

I want a slice of cake, too. The mushy one.

Tiramisu.

Okay.

What will you have?

I...

I don't want coffee today.

Don't buy mine.

Then,

your credit card, please.

Oh...

Stop.

You want coffee?

I'm buying.

What?

Why?

It can boost all of your work efficiency.

Those being treated work better because they're in a good mood.

The one buying won't because they'll be in a bad mood.

As the CEO of this company,

I can't have even one person be less efficienct.

Here, take it.

Yes, sir.

Thank you.

Unbelievable.

Is this for real?

The CEO is buying coffee.

It's the first time in the 3 months he's been here.

Yeah.

He's all about money. The athlete's foot ad says it all.

Yet he's buying coffee?

Even when he paid for the armchair?

Isn't it strange?

As long as we get coffee, who cares?

You got lucky.

You've saved money again.

I know.

I'll have a latte.

No, mocha.

Monthly Magazine House #3 Living with a Parasite

I think your suggestion is better.

I'll use this as the main photo.

Yeah.

Good choice.

I was getting hungry, too.

Want to get 1+1 gimbap at the convenience store?

- Sure. - Great.

Let's see if there's something new.

Oh, First Lady Lunch Box.

Look.

2020 LONG NEW First Lady Lunch Box Special price KRW 6,000

You want to get this instead?

I do.

But it's expensive.

I've started a project to spend only KRW 10,000 a day.

Only KRW 10,000 for transportation and living costs.

I need to spend less on eating out.

Tuna kimchi and Jeonju bibimbap.

Tuna kimchi & Jeonju bibimbap (Triangular Gimbap) Butter soy sauce & Bulgogi (Triangular Gimbap)

Butter soy sauce and bulgogi.

It's neck and neck.

Hey! Check this out.

First Lady Lunch Box is 1+1.

Huh? Really?

I've never seen a lunch box go for 1+1.

I guess it's a promotion because it's a new item.

Let's get this.

It's KRW 3,000 each.

Awesome. We're getting this.

Save our seats outside.

I'll pay the cashier.

Okay.

Alright!

I can't believe this is KRW 3,000.

I'm pathetic, right?

But still

every little bit helps.

And one day I'll have money to buy a house.

But since you're so talented,

I bet the CEO pays you a lot.

You'll probably earn enough to buy a house soon.

Well,

I'm going to work here only for a few months.

Why?

My passion right now is art photography.

I want to study fine art properly.

"Why take art photos that don't make money?"

"Do you want to be poor?"

You were going to say that, right?

No.

Do you want to have a specialty?

Yes.

It's admirable that you have a dream

and that you're brave enough to follow it.

Your drive to challenge yourself

is fantastic.

Honestly, I'm kind of envious.

Hi, Honey.

Come home after 10 PM today.

Again? How will I kill time...?

Hello? Honey?

What do I do until then?

Lunch box KRW 3,000.

Store side dishes for dinner KRW 5,000.

If I walk home,

I have KRW 2,000 left today.

Okay. Great.

- Whoa, big news! - Yikes!

What is it?

The pork ribs place across the street is closing.

It was on TV and hit the jackpot.

Really?

There's always a long line. Why close?

They got a lot of complaints from neighbors.

They're moving to Jejudo Island.

Today's the last day.

I never went, thinking I'll go once the hype died down.

This won't do.

Let's all go there today.

I can't.

I have dinner plans with my cutie pie...

It's canceled. She has a make-up class.

Okay. Let's go.

Great!

You're buying, right?

Me?

You must be mad.

Editor Na, you buy.

Me?

You saved money on the armchair and coffee.

You should buy.

What do you think?

You all agree, right?

Yep.

You've had good luck so why not celebrate?

What do you say?

- You're buying, right? - You're buying, right?

Oh, well. Sure.

Gangnam St. / 12 min. Yeouido St. / 10 min. Gwanghwamun St. / 9 min.

Gangnam, Yeouido. Gwanghwamun, etc.

A location with easy access to capital business districts.

An apartment close to the workplace.

A low building only five stories high.

Low floor area ratio will allow it to become

Floor area ratio Ratio of a building's floor area to the size of the lot

a high-rise apartment when it's reconstructed.

Okay. Pass.

Secretary Hwang.

When Geumma Apt. comes on the market,

buy it immediately.

I told you not to look at the camera.

You asked for candid photos of you working.

I feel awkward taking photos.

Don't be self-conscious and look over there.

Jeez.

It's six people, so it'll cost at least KRW 100,000.

Not be indebted to tomorrow's me?

I'll be indebted to 10 days of me.

It can't be helped.

Since I'm buying, I'll go all out.

I'll buy.

Didn't you decide to use a KRW 10,000 calendar

so you could save up to buy a house?

Then what should I do?

It looks like I can't get out of it.

Did they buy you coffee?

Did they pay for the armchair?

No, but...

So why buy them drinks?

Stop being a pushover.

Find a way to get out of it.

Okay.

I'll find a way no matter what.

Huh?

My purse.

Where's my purse?

Oh, no. Look again.

It's not here.

I think I lost it when I went out for lunch.

What should I do?

I don't think I can buy drinks tonight.

Oh, well. It can't be helped.

It's okay. I'll buy.

- Really? - Sure!

Just wire the money to me.

As soon as I've paid.

The bank security card was in my purse,

so I don't think I can.

Nonsense.

There are other ways to transfer money.

Naver pay, Talks, Kakao pay...

Choose one and wire the money.

I didn't know you were so old-fashioned.

You have to enjoy

the advances in technology.

Yes, sir.

This could happen.

Oh.

The advances in technology are dragging me down.

Is there another way?

Ow, my stomach. Ow.

Young-won, are you alright?

- It hurts so much. - Oh, no!

I'm sorry.

- But I think I have to go to the hospital. - Let's go.

119! 119! Call 119!

His eyes rolled back!

See, Editor Na?

That's what I call acting that will fool people.

What you did was child's play!

What if this happened?

My bad acting is dragging me down.

What should I do?

Home Ownership Café Notification of new post

Help! I'm in trouble!

As soon as I decided to spend KRW 10,000 a day,

I'm facing a huge challenge.

I've been pressured into buying drinks for my coworkers.

How can I get out of this?

Crying...

Here's your coffee.

Thanks.

Let's see the photos you took.

Okay.

Here.

You're really good.

I know.

I've been thinking...

I've looked around and realized you're the best.

So you must keep on working at Monthly Magazine House

for me.

No way.

I told you I'm going to New York.

I'm going to study fine art there.

Your dream was to take advertisement photos.

Why fine art, all of a sudden?

Why take art photos that don't make money?

Taking art photos is my new dream.

And there's someone who's rooting for me.

You got a girlfriend?

What? No.

You should find a girlfriend.

Stop thinking only about making money.

Money is my girlfriend.

Happy?

Wrap it up!

Calmly!

Everybody!

Let's go eat pork ribs!

Let's get ready to leave.

Stop!

Oh! Sir!

You said you were going home straight from the site.

I was going to, but I remembered something.

Editor Na Zero-won, stay.

Sir?

Work overtime.

There's research you need to do for the next article.

Yes, sir.

Wait. Sir. Stop, stop.

Editor Na is buying drinks today.

Unfortunately, the restaurant closes after today.

Can she do the research tomorrow?

No. She must do it today.

Oh, but sir...

Oh! There's something else to search for.

Sir?

A new chief editor.

I don't need a chief editor that postpones work.

Work hard overtime.

I will.

Huh? What's with the face?

What is all this?

Why are you all here?

Mi-ra and I are here to help Young-won.

We're also here to help Editor Na.

We are one.

You want her to finish up quickly so she buys drinks.

- No, we don't. - No, we don't.

Anyway, with all of us helping out,

we found all the material

that you wanted her to find.

Here!

Ten!

We did well, right?

Assistant Gye Joo-hee

I'm almost at the front of the line.

Come quickly.

They'll close when there's no more meat left.

We'll be going now.

Everyone move!

Move! Move!

Goodbye.

Goodbye.

See you tomorrow.

Hurry.

Stop!

There's one more thing you must find.

What? One more?

Yes.

I forgot but it's very important.

What if we came

early tomorrow and...

No, of course not.

What is it?

What's the material you need?

Find the magazine with a photo of this house.

This is a house? Isn't it a dog?

This looks like a dog to you?

It's definitely a house.

I clearly remember seeing it.

Find it right now.

Yes, sir.

Everyone move!

Move! Move!

Wuff! Wuff!

It's not here. Let's go to the back.

Where's the dog-like house?

The CEO said he saw it.

Is this really necessary?

We only have the one ladder.

They'll close when there's no more meat left.

I'm going to find it.

I'm going to find it no matter what.

No, you won't.

Where will you find a dog-like...

I found it! I found it!

Sir!

I found it!

What? He found it?

I found it! I found it!

Let me down.

Let me down. Wait.

Wait, wait!

Are you okay?

Sir?

Oh, yes.

If you're okay,

get out quickly.

- Are you alright? - You okay? Are you hurt?

Yes, of course.

Careful, careful, careful.

I'm okay

so straighten the bookshelves first.

I don't know how long I can hold on.

You can just come out.

Yes.

The angle...

Don't step on me.

- Don't step on me. - Ow, my leg, my leg.

I apologize.

This whole mess is my fault.

In any case,

we can go since we found it, right?

Let's go.

Before they're out of meat.

Stop!

How much will you drink if you go right now?

I'm not sure.

I'm hungry.

I feel like drinking a lot today.

Don't you remember what I said last time?

- If you drink a lot, your work will suffer. - Well, then...

We'll drink a little.

How can I believe that?

From now on, get-togethers without me is forbidden.

What?

And I won't be going today,

so no get-together tonight.

- Why? - Why?

Today's get-together

is forbidden.

Forbidden!

I'm getting it.

What? What are you getting?

I'm getting a hunch.

A hunch that the CEO likes you.

Huh?

I'm sure he likes you.

My hunch is 100% right.

What nonsense is that?

It's not nonsense!

He hates wasting money the most.

But he pays for the armchair and coffee.

He even forbids a get-together to stop you from spending.

Come on...

His way of showing affection

is through money.

Since he likes you, he won't let you spend money.

What do you mean?

The armchair is because of Labor Laws.

The coffee is for work efficiency.

The get-together is to ensure good work performance.

Then what about saving you in the archive?

How will you explain that?

He's not one to sacrifice himself.

That's...

If I get hurt, there will be nobody to write his article.

Jeez.

If you're going to say weird things, just go.

Oh, come on.

I'll stop now, okay?

Happy?

Okay.

It's so dirty here.

Clean up, will you?

Am I your mother? Huh?

My mom?

You nag more than my mom does.

If you're finished with work, go home.

My nagging is for your well-being.

No nagging is pleasant to hear.

There is nagging that's pleasant to hear.

"Do you want to be poor? No."

What?

Never mind.

Huh?

What is it?

It's certainly humiliating content.

It's funny.

I'm not looking at it because it was funny.

I'm looking at it because she's pretty.

What? This?

Don't kid around.

Your mom must go home now.

Bye.

Okay, Son.

No, no, no.

I shouldn't waste anything.

The bathroom is so clean. What a nice place!

Right!

CEO Yoo let you lease this place without a security deposit.

Are you still going to deny it?

It was vacant for a long time. He wanted rent.

Come on.

Alright.

By the way, what's that?

It's a KRW 10,000 calendar.

I made that to spend only KRW 10,000 a day.

Right.

I guess my hunch has gone bad.

He's a guy who'd marry for money.

You're not his type.

Do you have to do something as pitiful as that?

Pitiful money saved up will get me a huge house.

Actually, nowadays,

I'm trying to save up money to buy a house.

What? Buy a house?

I told you.

The population is decreasing. Housing will be plenty.

- What use is... - There is use.

I want to own a home so that I don't have to pay rent.

Please keep this a secret.

What?

About CEO Yoo not taking a security deposit

and how I'm gathering seed money.

I don't want pity from others.

Okay.

Then I'll root for you.

I'll help you save up.

I'll help you plenty.

Plenty!

This is so soft!

Your things have been moved.

Let me know if you need anything else.

I won't be needing anything.

How about getting some basic furniture?

It looks uncomfortable living like that.

You have to be uncomfortable to earn money.

No need wasting money on a place that will sell soon.

I decided to spend KRW 10,000 a day starting today.

Home Ownership Café

I succeeded thanks to my boss.

He didn't intend it,

but he paid for the coffee I was supposed to buy

and helped me get out of buying drinks

for my coworkers.

Thank you so much!

Comment Dragon

He seems like a really nice guy.

Heartless brute who only knows money.

Ogre.

Rude jerk.

That's what I thought he was.

But I realize I was mistaken.

I think he's a nice guy, too.

Thank you for your comment, Dragon.

I feel so supported.

I'll always root for you. Fight on!

I'll give you a taste of your own medicine! You'll die at my hands, Yoo Ja-sung!

Monthly Magazine House

It's good.

It's good.

Anything else?

Welll,

it's not something I can write,

but I prepared this because I thought it'd be good.

What is it?

She's a pro.

Thank you.

A village where history and the present coexist

Huh? Houses in Ikseon-dong?

Yes, like houses in Ikseon-dong,

there are old houses that embody

the history of modern dwellings.

What if we could preserve them

instead of reconstructing them?

Kill it. Next.

What?

I'm killing it.

I'm killing the story.

Did you not hear me?

Are you an expert on reconstruction? Huh?

No.

We need to demolish old houses quickly and reconstruct.

Preserve, my foot. Sheesh...

This is so frustrating!

Let's take 10 minutes.

Your nonsense is so annoying.

Don't talk about reconstruction in front of him.

Why not?

He lives in a run-down apartment in Gangbuk.

He's been waiting for reconstruction for 10 years.

What's worse,

his wife wanted to move to Gangnam

a few years ago for their kids' education.

But he said no,

saying they'll hit the jackpot with reconstruction.

See how it turned out?

House prices soared in Gangnam.

So now he walks on ice around his wife.

She treats him with scorn.

By the way,

why does Chief Editor

often tiptoe around?

That?

We were so curious that we asked him one time.

- Whoa. - Slow down.

You know

that my kids are a junior and senior in high school?

With the SATs around the corner,

my wife is on edge.

She said if she hears my footsteps,

she'll rip my legs out.

So tiptoeing became a habit.

Still...

Tiptoeing is too much.

No, it's not. She's the queen.

You know I walk on egg shells around her.

I'm going to calmly go smoke a cigarette.

I feel so sorry for him.

Tiptoeing, my foot.

I know.

Even my aunt's pet dog walks on all fours.

His life is worse than a dog's.

He should've moved.

Why wait for reconstruction that won't happen?

What did you say?

Reconstruction that won't happen?

It sounds like

you don't want the reconstruction to happen.

No, that's not it...

Quiet!

Do you know my agony?

You bastards.

Are you okay...?

We shouldn't have said

such a rash thing at that time.

I e-mailed the article to you.

You'll give me your comments tomorrow?

- I'm heading out... - No.

You can go after I confirm it.

Oh, okay.

But you know,

you'll have to wait for a long time.

What? For how long?

Until my apartment goes under reconstruction.

What...?

I'm waiting for reconstruction that won't happen?

You wait for my confirmation that I won't give!

Feel how much agony I am in!

Oh, no.

Oh, yes.

Okay. Call me when the brand launches.

- Okay. - Chief Editor.

I'm Sang-soon.

I'm out of toilet paper.

Can you give me some?

Oh, really?

Okay.

But you know,

you'll have to wait for a long time.

Why?

Is there no toilet paper in the next booth?

Then how long...

Until my apartment goes under reconstruction.

Yikes!

I'm waiting for reconstruction that won't happen?

Then you wait

for toilet paper that won't come.

Feel how much agony I am in!

Chief Editor! Chief Editor!

He really did that?

Yes. He was such a stinker.

He acted like a huge jerk.

Don't ever talk about reconstruction

or tiptoeing in front of him.

Okay.

Oh, dear.

A home is an issue for everyone.

Come in.

Are you free?

What brings you here?

I want to set up a schedule for a shoot

before I go to a pre-interview.

I'm scouting sites with Editor Nam tomorrow.

So I'll be free the day after tomorrow.

Okay.

What kind of a house will you be covering?

It's a house made by a famous architect.

The CEO invested in the townhouse

she newly built.

An article that makes you want to buy that house...

An article that makes money. Write that.

Wow.

You sound just like him.

I was nagged by him more than you were.

Yeah.

We're so in synch when we badmouth the CEO.

Okay.

Let's badmouth the CEO over beer and snacks

at the convenience store.

You're thinking about spending money again?

Do you want to be poor?

No.

Okay.

We can do this.

Fight on!

I'm going now.

See you at the site.

Okay.

"Do you want to be poor? No."

Huh?

There is nagging that's pleasant to hear?

It was Editor Na?

Hey.

Your family is stinking rich. Why listen to that?

Hey.

Don't ever say that

in front of Editor Na.

Whoa.

Wait.

Do you like Editor Na?

That's why you said she looked pretty yesterday?

Don't ever say that either.

Got it?

Don't.

I can see what's happening.

He has a crush.

This article has a huge investment at stake.

Stay sharp, and cover the story well.

Don't worry.

I've been studying real estate very hard.

That's a given.

Wait.

Floor area ratio, building-to-land ratio,

station district, security right.

Appraised value of land, standard market price, current price base.

Hello.

Welcome.

Come on in.

Location: Bongjun-gu, Seoul

Lot area: 1328.92㎡ Building area: 581.81㎡ Sale price: KRW 9.5 bil.

This is my husband's rec room.

Awesome.

It's a natural wine cellar.

It's my husband's favorite space.

I don't know if you noticed,

but I made this house for my husband.

That's so romantic.

No doubt

you love your husband so much.

Of course.

And he loves me a lot, too.

I'm 10 years older

but he takes good care of me.

He's here.

- Just a second. - Sure.

What she just said...

Don't write it. Write a story that makes money.

I got it.

Say hello, Honey.

This is the CEO of Monthly Magazine House.

Hello, I'm Yoo Ja-sung.

Nice to meet you.

This is the editor.

Hello. Nice to meet you.

What's wrong?

Huh? Oh, nothing.

Nice to meet you, too.

Sure.

What about Min-joon? Is he okay?

Yes.

We have a five-year-old son.

Our neighbors are watching him

so we can focus on the interview.

I see.

That bastard.

5 years ago

Come on!

Hey!

I told you not to pee there!

I've repeatedly told you not to come.

I have to study.

So you should eat better.

Here.

I grilled pork belly...

Let's break up.

What?

Let's break up.

What's with you all of a sudden?

I'm sick of you.

I'm sick of your cheap clothes

and your cheap bag.

I hate everything about you.

Huh?

But you know what I hate the most?

That semi-basement stench coming from you.

I hate that the most.

Your smell crosses the line.

What?

You bastard...

Young-won... Big sis.

Let's not be pathetic.

Let me go, okay?

Let's end this.

Please.

Long time no see.

Thanks for pretending not to know me.

I'll buy you a meal.

What? A meal?

Are you crazy? You think I'll eat with you?

Pay me back with cash.

I bought you meals, drinks and clothes. Remember?

Yes. But I receive an allowance from my wife...

Pathetic loser.

You're still sponging off of people.

Sponging off? That's harsh.

Let's not cross the line.

Line?

Line?

You crossed the line first!

What?

We broke up 5 years ago.

And your son is 5 years old.

That means you two-timed me, and knocked her up.

Does your wife know?

Be quiet! If she finds out, I'm screwed!

Get your hands off me!

Come on.

Can you please overlook this?

Big sis...

You always called me that when you needed something.

Falling out of love isn't a crime!

Unbelievable.

I was going to overlook it, but I can't.

You're a grade-A jerk.

I feel sorry for your wife.

Where are you, Honey?

She's coming.

- Wait, wait. - What? Hey, hey.

- Are you insane? - Wait.

- Let go! - Wait.

Sorry, sorry.

What the...

That bastard.

No service

I'm trapped?

No service

Darn it.

Hello!

I've been locked in!

Here. Please don't refuse.

No, thank you.

Accepting gifts from my sources is forbidden.

Think of us as friends, not a source. Please.

By the way, where's the editor?

Oh, I met her in the wine cellar.

She said she's leaving on urgent matters.

She went to the basement parking lot.

She told me to ask CEO Yoo to do the interview.

What?

Oh, come on!

Come on, phone!

Come on. We're an IT powerhouse!

It never works when I need it to.

Huh? No!

Why is this my life?

That bastard. I'm going to kill him!

Editor Na Young-won

Your call cannot be connected. Please leave a message...

How can she leave without saying anything?

What are you doing here?

Oh, I...

I was putting this back.

I don't think I can take it.

You're so uptight.

I'll put that back.

You head on upstairs.

Okay.

Hey!

You bastard!

I'm going to kill you, you bastard!

Stop! Stop! Editor Na Zero-won!

Yeah, I'm Na Zero-won. What's it to you?

Na Zero-won?

Huh?

Sir!

What are you doing here?

Honey.

What are you doing here?

Huh? Oh, nothing.

Let's go, let's go.

Floor area ratio, building-to-land ratio,

station district, security right.

Appraised value of land, standard market price, current price base.

Are you okay?

No. I'm not okay at all.

Once I expose everything, I'll be okay.

Huh?

Editor Na.

Honey.

You said she left on urgent matters.

Huh? Oh, well...

What happened was...

Daddy!

They're joined at the hip.

He called crying for his daddy.

So we brought him home.

Sorry.

What were you about to say?

Oh, well...

Let's go inside and...

I'm sorry.

I left without a word during an interview.

Big sis!

Big sis!

I'm really sorry.

I was going to get you out as soon as my wife left.

You've got a plan.

I have a plan, too.

Huh?

This wasn't planned.

It's because I'm so angry.

I'm sorry for leaving during an interview.

It wasn't your fault. You don't have to apologize.

Why didn't you say anything to them?

I wanted to expose everything.

But his wife and child are not at fault.

He's a stinking bastard to me,

but to them, he's the best husband and dad.

So I'm going to brush it off as bad luck.

But I'll write the article as you want.

Forget it.

I'm not proceeding with this.

If it's because of me...

No.

The house didn't meet my expectations.

It's a waste of paper to put it in our magazine.

I see.

Out of order

Again?

How many times is this already?

I can't walk up 15 flights of stairs. Darn it!

Just like my life.

Scraps.

It's all just scraps.

Seriously.

I barely get by with KRW 10,000 a day

while that parasitic bastard lives in a mansion.

He married well.

So well.

He dumped me for that.

He's living his dream.

There are times my home looks so shabby.

I'm sorry.

I'll repent for the rest of my life.

Have a good life, big sis.

I don't know about others,

but I wanted my life to be better than his.

The current score? I lost big time.

I think that's what a home is.

It measures my assets.

You can carry a designer wallet with no money in it.

But you can't buy a nice house with no money.

Kids studying. Tiptoe in quietly.

Your home is your status that you can't hide.

I really need a drink right now,

but I should save up to buy a house.

I'm going to restrain myself.

Why are you so happy?

It's annoying.

I have a friend

who works at a hip rooftop restaurant.

He sent me a coupon.

Free 500cc of draft beer. He sent two!

Totally dope!

Bye.

Hey! Sell that to me.

Why do you want a coupon?

Spend your own money.

No.

I need those free beer coupons.

You're not going to go with Editor Na, are you?

Come on! Stop acting like you're working class.

It's not right.

- I'll double it. - Yeah, right.

Triple.

Show them the coupon before you order.

I'll send it to you now.

Hello?

What brings you to call at this hour?

Editor Na!

Want to go for a glass of beer with me?

What's the occasion?

You forbade get-togethers.

Get-togethers without me are forbidden.

I'm here, so this is okay.

I see.

But why are you buying me a drink?

To increase work efficiency.

Increase work efficiency?

Yes.

A drink could cheer you up.

Then, you'll write my promo article better.

I see.

Thanks, anyway.

I really needed a drink.

Help yourself.

Huh?

Back so soon?

Did your crush reject you?

Shut up. She had a previous engagement.

I'll buy beer next time.

Bastard.

I'm so embarrassed that I dated him

for over three years.

But you know what embarrasses me more?

How I am right now.

I wanted to live a lot better than that bastard did.

But I tremble at even KRW 10,000

in the hopes that I can buy a house one day.

I feel so pathetic.

I think you're much better.

Thank you...

What?

He's a freeloader mooching off of his wife.

You're doing the best you can.

You're much better than him.

You really mean that?

Yes.

You'll meet someone

a million times better than him.

I'm sure CEO Yoo likes you.

My hunch is 100% right.

Stop! The coffee... I'll buy it.

Get-togethers without me are forbidden.

Forget it. I'm not proceeding with this.

His way of showing affection

is through money.

Drink as much as you want.

There's no set price today like last time.

Are you okay?

Sir.

Do you like me?

What?

Someone that's a million times better...

Do you mean yourself?

You like me, don't you?

I'm right. Aren't I?

Will...

this be answer enough?

Sir?

Monthly Magazine House

The 4th industrial Revolution era...

What?

Someone died there?

Go confront him.

Give me a discount on the rent!

Move out.

You think I won't?

What? Half-deposit?

The monthly rent will be expensive.

It's KRW 1 mil.

Does she work two jobs?

How can she have no worries about money?

When will you grow up?

I'm not going to take over my dad's business.

I thought we were partners.

You're always misunderstanding people.

I said that's enough!
