[Episode 4]

I should replace the door, right?

Yeah.

I just touched it. Why should I pay for your car door?

This front part is twisted, too.

Right on it.

Sir! Sir!

Why are you writing all that down?

I think I should repaint the bumper, too.

All right.

Why don't you just ask me to buy you a new car?

I don't need a new car.

All I need you to do is make it the way it was.

The way it was?

How can you make that crappy car back to the way it was?

Stop calling my car crappy!

To me... it's my dark horse.

It's more than just a car.

It's my hands and feet, and a lifetime partner.

It's also my business partner. Watch what you say.

What partner?

Oh, sheesh!

I was going to let it all go, but you keep speaking rudely to me.

Aren't you?

I know you're a guest to my company,

but we've only met twice.

Don't you think you're being rather rude to me?

Well, you deliberately ruined my car.

So, I don't feel like speaking to you with much respect.

Sir.

I didn't deliberately ruin your car!

Sir.

Yes?

Please fix my car to perfection.

Yes, ma'am.

What now?

Your ID.

I need to know who you are, although you probably can't run away.

So Jung-geun?

Listen up, Mister!

How much longer do you need to clean out the room?

If you can't sort out your books, just leave them.

I'll send the boxes to you later.

Surely, you're not thinking of just staying here...

using this and that as an excuse, are you?

When I come back from work later,

I'd better not see you in here.

Gosh, he's driving me crazy!

[Jung-tae]

Hello?

Jung-tae?

Yeah, I'm at home.

Really?

Your wife let you stay?

See? I told you, Mom. He went into the house safely.

My son, listen up.

Even if she tells you to get out,

you'd better not come out and just stay there.

Next week is your father's memorial service.

I'll be there next week and teach her a hard lesson.

I'll make her prepare for the service.

So, you just hang in there until I get there, okay?

Straighten up those shoulders!

Memorial service?

Okay.

All right.

Please don't worry about me, Mother.

All right. Bye.

How do I tell her about the memorial service?

Gosh...

"My 60th Birthday Party"

"My 60th birthday party has ended."

"I can't believe I'm already 60.

People say it's a time for celebration.

My lifetime partner and beloved wife...

was throwing a birthday party for me,

but then she shocked us all.

She's demanding a divorce from me.

And my loving and respectful mother...

is asking us to prepare for a memorial service.

She's telling me to straighten my shoulders.

I wish today was my memorial service...

instead of my 60th birthday party."

That's right!

Oh, gosh...

Being picked to this new team was totally uncalled for.

What the heck is going on here, anyway?

I really didn't want to come to this team.

I heard that it's just a temporary team.

Maybe the company is just doing this...

because they don't want to renew my contract.

What? Is that it?

I heard that the team leader was scouted from outside.

Do you know anything about her?

You haven't heard?

She was in international sales for years.

My friend worked under her once.

And she told me that she's really hot-tempered.

Gosh, I thought I was coming to an easier team.

I heard that many workers quit because they couldn't stand her.

If she doesn't like somebody, she fires them instantly,

and she yells at them...! Her nickname is a wicked witch.

I hate women like that the most!

"Quit right now!" That's her favorite line.

Tell me more.

Then her workers would go like this:

"I'm so sorry. Please forgive me just this once."

Ahhh!

Do you all want to quit, too?

If you do, you can walk out right now.

You!

Yes?

Do you want to quit?

No...of course not.

Then how about you?

I'd never quit my job.

Good. You'll have plenty of time to learn about me,

so let's skip the introduction and get to work.

Let's work!

Work!

Wait, why is that seat empty?

So Jung-geun.

Hello?

What?

All four doors?

Sir, that makes no sense!

You shouldn't just fix it.

All right.

Gosh, me and my rotten luck!

Hey, Mr. So.

How come you didn't get to meet Director Jung yesterday?

Hey, that the guest you picked up at the airport the other day...

is the new team leader.

What?

No way!

What? What's wrong?

What?

Rumor has it that that person is really unique.

Well, that's one way of putting it.

My first impression of the team leader was...

more of an international bum than a leader.

International bum?

And I was at the head office yesterday, her car...!

You crashed into it?

No way. I didn't. I just merely touched it,

and that car was just falling apart.

It was such a crappy car.

Oh, gosh. That's not good. What are you going to do now?

You broke the new team leader's car?

It was as if she was trying to fraud me.

She doesn't even look like a woman.

Wait, the new team leader is a woman?

So, she's a girl...

No, she was practically a guy!

Then, it's a dude?

So, it's a guy...

I said, it's a girl!

Then...?

She's a girl, but she doesn't seem like a girl.

Is that it?

Gosh...

Mr. So Jung-geun.

Who are you?

My goodness, who are you?

Well, I'm the team leader.

She just hit me.

Listen.

Don't you know you're transferred to the Sales Marketing Team?

Let go of me.

Let's talk at the head office.

I was going to go easy on you since you're a girl, but...

I don't care if you're the team leader!

I'm not going!

No way!

Why can't you come?

Why can't you?

Let go of me!

She's scary.

Let's stop them. Let's stop them.

I don't think this is right.

No! No!

Hey, Jung-geun!

What kind of woman is so strong?

So, you're saying...

the reason he didn't come to the head office is because...

the director of the sale team ordered him not to?

Well, I didn't exactly say that.

It's just our policy to always follow...

Director Jung's decisions, so we were just...

Hey!

Director...

He didn't say anything to me about this.

All right.

Why don't I call Director Jung right now...

and ask him whether what you're saying is true...

Team Leader Ma, you don't need to call him...

Hang on just a minute. I'll give him a call.

Hello, sir. I'm the chief of the Gangseo branch office.

The team leader of Sales & Marketing came all the way here.

She's here to take So Jung-geun away...

What?

Team Leader Ma is there right now?

Ha! She's here on a mere 6-month project,

yet she's stirring up the entire company!

Just tell her that we can't do our work without So Jung-geun.

Be stubborn...

Be stubborn about it, huh?

Is this how you always run things around here?

Team Leader Ma In-sung?

I believe the CEO has sent out an order...

for everyone to cooperate with my new marketing team.

Are you trying to be uncooperative?

Oh, no! You must be misunderstanding something.

I wasn't being uncooperative.

Mr. So Jung-geun is like our jewel.

He's the gem of our sales department.

He makes an incredible amount of profit each month...

Understood.

I'll take it as you being cooperative with me.

And I'll be taking your gem, So Jung-geun, with me today.

Ms. Ma! Ms. Ma!

Let's go.

Sir, do I really have to go?

Sir! Sir!

Sir!

I won't run away, so let go of me.

Hello. Hi.

People are looking at us!

Are you doing this because of the minor car accident we had?

I'll pay for your doors.

Are you happy now?

Oh, yeah?

Well, that's good news.

I'll get going now, then.

Where do you think you're running off to?

Why are you doing this to me?

After the deadline in just two days,

I'll be winning a travel voucher to South-East Asia.

Do you know how much sales I make per month?

I don't care at all about that.

Because of you, our entire team isn't working right now.

How are you going to be responsible for that?

Oh, gosh!

Producer Kim.

Oh, hello.

Did you have a good 60th birthday party for your husband?

That's not the problem right now.

What is this?

Huh?

You want me to sell this right now?

It just got its patent and being aired first on our show.

At least last week's item was something expensive.

What is this? It's $49.90 for 10?

How can you tell me to sell something so cheap?

Producer Kim, how many times have I told you?

I told you I want to be selling something luxurious.

Did you forget who I am?

I'm Hong Ae-ja who sells out anything I bring.

I'm not going to film this.

I'm going home.

Ma'am, it's a live show. You can't just leave like this.

I'm too upset to do anything right now.

Call me when you get something else for me to sell.

Maybe I'll just move to a different TV station.

Ma'am.

Please do this for me.

I'll make sure for the next item,

it'll be something more suitable for you.

Please, please do this for me. Please?

Oh, gosh!

I have to get changed again!

You look perfect the way you are.

You want me to wear this when I'm selling cleaning products?

Don't you know I'm a professional at what I do?

Coordinator Kim! Where is she?

I'm right here!

Bring me jeans and an apron.

A pair of household gloves, too!

Yes, ma'am!

Fly away.

You know, it's really strange.

It's true that Dr. Ma In-sung has a spectacular background.

She's very aggressive, and not afraid of anything.

And she turns even the most seemingly impossible projects...

into a complete success.

But does she pick the best apples in the company?

People say no, she doesn't.

Take Yoo Min-chul, for example.

He's a slacker.

Oh, the slacker.

Miss Lee Soo-hae from the PR Department.

She's a high school graduate and a contractor.

Her main work was to make coffee.

The coffee maker...

And then, Manager Park.

This is Manager Park Sang-sun,

who will be joining the team from today.

Nice to meet you.

He's old enough to be the director, but he's still a manager,

and most likely to be on the early retirement list this year.

Darn it!

What does that make me?

Why does she want me on the team? I'm so good at what I do.

The dark horse.

You're probably the only person she can trust to do the work properly.

The dark horse...

These are the materials for other companies in the same industry.

Min-chul, I want you to make a report...

on comparing products that are similar to our own.

Manager Park, ask for cooperation from other branch offices,

and compare underwear sales with other companies' underwear.

Soo-hae, can you get us some good coffee?

Do you want yours black or with cream?

What do you think you're doing?

Make your own coffee on your own free time!

Soo-hae, I want you to collect all the advertisements...

from TV, magazines, the internet, and newspapers.

Make me a report with all of their headlines.

Yes, ma'am.

Excuse me.

Yes?

What should I do?

Oh.

Jung-geun, I want you to worry about the cleanliness of our office.

Cleanliness of our office?

It's very important for you to keep our office nice and tidy,

so that other workers can concentrate on their work.

You can start by wiping those desks.

What? Wipe the desks?

[Mother-In-Law]

Hello, Mother?

Remember how I asked you to teach a class at our cultural center?

How is that going?

I have full classes this semester,

and I'm preparing for my thesis.

So, I don't think I can teach at the Cultural Center....

It's only once a week. It's not a big deal.

I'm going to confirm it at today's board meeting.

Oh, and I'm going to change your curtains.

The house doesn't look nice with your current curtains.

My curtains are still practically brand new.

Mother?

I'm here to look at the curtains.

We can't go over there and look at them?

No. Please do other shopping first and then come back later.

You can't go in right now.

Who is that woman?

Well, I...

Please come back in a bit.

I'm sorry.

Are these all the curtains you have?

Bring more.

But these are all we have.

We only stock the ones that customers like...

Who would buy such cheap curtains?

If we stock these crappy curtains,

what would people think of our brand, JW?

This is the head store, too.

We have to set a good example for our branch stores.

Ma'am, it's our policy to not stock any luxury products.

Our policy?

Whoever came up with such a ridiculous policy?

How's the distribution center?

Among our groups,

the distribution sector is the only one making good profits.

Yes. By the time we reach the end of the year,

we'll secure a 100% rate for our stores nationwide.

Oh, you were in a meeting?

I'm almost done.

Please go have some tea. I'll be there soon.

I'll just leave after saying two things.

I stopped by the head store of JW Mart,

and there was a policym that the store doesn't stock luxury items.

Is that true?

Woo-jae... I mean, Director Baek?

Yes. As we expanded our JW Markets nationwide,

we chose to sell low-to-mid-priced items.

And thanks to that, our sales increased,

and our reputation has also went up.

Who said you could do that?

Honey, we came up with that strategy last year,

and it's been very successful so far.

Oh.

I'm sorry.

I forgot that you were in the middle of a meeting.

Then how about the opinion I gave...

during the last board meeting as JW's biggest shareholder,

about launching cultural centers?

Well, we thought that it didn't go very well...

with our humble countryside market image,

so we disregarded that opinion...

You disregarded my opinion?

Who said you could disregard my opinion?

Where did JW Distribution come from?

My father worked to build Laura Department Mall all his life,

and this is how low we've fallen?

Back in the day,

some people only dreamed of shopping at Laura Department.

A countryside market?

Oh, goodness.

I want you to reconsider that ridiculous policy,

and get right to opening a cultural center.

Honey! My dear!

Mom!

I told you!

I told you Mom will hate this idea.

You know how stubborn she can get.

What do we do?

We can't change the whole policy of JW Distribution.

However, we can reconsider opening a cultural center.

Do you see this?

All you have to do is spray it.

Like this. Spray, spray.

Look. And...

Oh, wow!

You don't even need a sponge. Just use your wipe.

The stains are all gone!

Wipe, wipe.

It's spanking clean, isn't it?

If it's 40-something dollars for 10...

It's only 4 dollars for one.

It's cheap.

But why are they selling a bundle of 10?

When will I ever use all of them?

I promise you that you'll end up using every last one.

It doesn't go bad, even if you keep it for a long time.

So, just buy them while they're on sale.

This is the last chance for you to buy at such a low price.

And our special gift, delicious sesame oil set!

This is on me, Hong Ae-ja!

What?

The sesame oil set is for free?

I ran out of sesame oil! This is perfect.

I should buy them while they're cheap.

Hello?

Is this Home Shopping?

The detergent that's on air right now...

So it's $49.90 for a 10-set, right?

Yes. Right.

But can't I just by 5 boxes?

What? The prices will be the same as buying 10?

That makes no sense!

How can the prices of 10 boxes and 5 boxes be the same?

What?

Buy all 10 if you're upset?

I never said I was upset.

I just don't need all 10 boxes.

I want to speak to your supervisor.

Don't you have a boss?

I want to talk to him right now.

Hello? Hello?

Hello?

Please come in.

Did you show her the room?

Yes.

But she doesn't need such a large room.

She's looking for something a bit cheaper.

Oh, I see. A cheaper room?

She's as chubby and sweet as a peach!

She has a big waist so she must be strong.

She's dressed up humbly, so she must be frugal.

Why are you staring at me?

Oh, no. It's nothing.

I was thinking you look so cute and chubby.

I should go on a diet.

Oh, no! Don't say that. You're perfect the way you are.

May I ask you a personal question?

Sure.

How old are you this year?

I'm turning 28.

Oh, perfect.

Do you have a boyfriend?

Not yet.

You said you had a job, right?

Are you thinking of working even after getting married?

No, I want to be a stay-at-home mom.

I want to raise my baby well at home.

Pass!

Huh? Pass?

Oh...

It's working! It's working!

I can listen to my classes online.

I have to go out for work.

Hurry up and clean the yard.

I'm busy right now.

A really pretty girl is coming...

to look at the vacant rooftop room.

For real?

Is she really pretty?

That's what Dad says.

All right.

This is it.

Please come in.

It's close to the big road, and since it's a rooftop room,

it's like having your own house.

Let's go up.

Please come this way.

Here we are.

It's very sunny with a nice breeze coming in and out.

How about the kitchen?

This is the kitchen.

It's only a small sink, but if you move in,

I'll make you a proper kitchen.

Really?

We have good public transportation and it's close to a park.

It'll be hard to find a room this good for this price.

It's really nice here.

I like the room.

If you go down with the price a little, I'll sign the contract.

Oh! No, no!

We won't go down with the price! No way!

Oh, don't mind him.

Let's go to my office and talk about the price.

All right.

My, my, my Delilah!

Why, why, why, Delilah!

Who is he?

Well, he's...

Actually, this is my house and he's my son.

I'm going to look for somewhere else to live.

Bye now.

Miss! Miss! I'll cut down the rent!

Dad always brings in the weirdest girls!

You brat!

Come! Come here!

Dad!

Come here! Come here!

No!

Why did you do that to her?

Don't skip dinner.

All right. Okay.

All right.

You were still here?

Shh!

Why, of course, Mother.

It's my duty to hold memorial services.

I'm the oldest son.

Don't worry about a thing, and come to my house next week.

Make sure Jung-tae and Jung-soon also come.

All right.

Mother, make sure you sleep warmly tonight.

Bye.

You're home?

Let's eat dinner now.

Let's eat dinner now?

Didn't I make myself perfectly clear earlier?

I said, I didn't want to see you by the time I came back home.

I thought about it,

and I had no reason to leave this house.

What... what... what did you say?

[Subtitles provided by MBC]

[Preview]

You're the same, too.

Why is he torturing me? That fool!

Gosh!

You're only teaching a class. Why did you ignore my call?

You think I'd be that easy to get?

Why are you trying to hide the number to me?

Because it's a security code.

If you sent me to study abroad like other kids,

I wouldn't be having such a hard time.

Don't even bring it up.

You probably don't know since you never had a son.

You said I never had a son...

The door fell off and the bumper also came off.

Does that even make sense?

Gosh!
