[Episode 9]

What kind of woman is so strong?

Where are you taking me?

[Motel]

You want me to go in there with you?

After tonight, you'll see a whole new me.

You must have a very bad drinking habit.

Let me say this again,

I have no interest whatsoever in you.

Where are you going? You followed me here.

Come with me.

What are you doing? I don't want to go!

I'm not such an easy guy!

Let's have a match, not as a man and a woman,

but as person to person.

Sometimes, men have a fist fight outside of the office.

What do you think you're doing right now?

Don't give some lame excuse that you went easy because I'm a woman.

From your muscles, I think you like working out.

And you don't look drunk at all,

so don't later say that you weren't in the right condition to fight.

Fine! Let's do it.

Let's do it! Let's do it!

Good! Bring it on!

How can I hit a woman?

I couldn't bring myself to do that.

I said don't look at me as a woman!

Look at me as a fellow human being.

A person who is kicking your butt!

You acting like this doesn't make you a man.

The twisted and wrong concepts about gender...

are rooted so deeply inside of you.

I'll shatter all of those misconceptions for you today!

Here I go!

I'm going crazy.

Are you crazy?

What are you doing?

Let go of me, you coward!

Calm down.

I said let go.

Let's talk about this.

Let's talk as person to person.

Stop it.

All right.

Let go of me.

Ouch.

Gosh, she's not even a woman!

She's a man! A man!

No, she's a monster! A monster!

What kind of woman is she, anyway?

That coward...

Jung-geun, have breakfast.

I'm running late so I'm skipping breakfast.

I made some good bean sprout and fish soup.

Have a bowl....

Jung-geun, what happened to your face?

What about my face?

See you later.

Stop right there!

Jung-geun, did you get beat up?

Bro, you fought with a gangster last night, huh?

Who did this to you?

Who would've made this to my pillar #1 So Jung-geun?!

Dad, you know I'm not the person to get beaten up.

I went to the boxing gym to work out yesterday.

If I got this hurt,

how do you think my opponent would look right now?

See you later.

It's true that he wouldn't get beaten up.

Maybe he got beaten up by that new team leader!

Remember how she had her boxing gloves on in the picture?

Oh, Seung-geun! Just eat your breakfast.

Since you don't work,

you have no idea what goes on in the business world.

Why are you hitting me?

Why, you...!

Dad!

Stop right now!

Eat your breakfast.

Yes, sir.

Aren't you even going to ask how Mother is doing?

I'm not curious at all.

She's probably getting some rest at the hospital.

You really aren't worried about her at all?

What are you going to do if she passes away?

This is all because you did such a bad job...

at my father's memorial service!

Well...

I'm not the one who did a poor job.

You're the one who prepared the table.

Well, I was just doing what you were supposed to do!

Come on, let's be straight about this.

This was your father's memorial service.

Not my father.

Why are you blaming me for it?

You did it for 35 years!

I know, and I was a fool for doing that.

Why would I have prepared memorial services...

for 35 years not for my own father, but for yours?

Instead of being thanked,

I was nagged and criticized.

Do I still look like your sucker wife?

We're divorced.

Fine!

I don't want to live with you any more than you do.

So cough up my money right now!

Oh, fine! I will!

I'm not going to run off with your precious money.

Oh, goodness.

I can't even do the dishes because of you!

I said I'd pay you back!

I thought I'd never have to see him once I divorced him!

Why did I take his pension money in the first place?

I can't believe this.

Just what did I do so wrong?

I gave up my everything to marry him.

I had kids and raised them...

under all kinds of harsh circumstances.

I had an incompetent husband and a nasty mother-in-law.

I married off his sister, and put his brother through college.

I even gave money for his brother to set up a pizza place and chicken...

A pizza place?

This pension money...

Oh, good grief! I can't believe this!

What?

You gave me your pension to pay off my mortgage?

I knew something was strange.

Huh?

Once a marine, always a marine.

Make any impossible situation work.

Hello.

This is customer service for SH Home Shopping.

How can I help you?

I'm calling to refund the cleanser...

that I purchased a few days ago.

I see.

It can't be done, sir.

I know you didn't change your mind,

but you opened the package and even used it,

so we can't refund you, sir.

So I'm willing to pay for that one bottle that I used.

I just want to be refunded for the rest of the bottles.

I know.

However, you opened all the packages...

and even used half a bottle of the cleanser.

Are you saying you'll pay for that one bottle, sir?

Yes. That's exactly what I'm saying.

I see.

We can't refund you, sir.

Hello? Hey!

Are you joking with me?

How many times do I have to repeat myself?

Then send me the sesame oil set!

How come you're not sending that to me?

Oh.

We can't send you the free giveaway...

because you requested a refund, sir.

But you're not refunding me my money!

Then at least give me my free giveaway!

I can't do either of those things for you, sir.

What kind of nonsense is this?

Well, I couldn't tell you, sir.

Is there anything else I can help you with?

No! No!

Well, I'll hang up the phone then, sir.

Hello?

Hey, how come you're not sending me the giveaway?

Hello? Hey! Hey! Hello?

I can't just sit back and take this.

So this is how you treat your customers?

Gosh, this looks too obvious.

I can't wear sunglasses in the office...

Hi, Mr. So.

Oh, nothing.

Go on.

Gosh...

Oh, hello.

Oh!

What?

Does it hurt where I punched you?

I wasn't punched by anyone!

I was wondering what your intention was.

Why you would take the sales team's #1 treasure So Jung-geun...

and not give him any work?

And even punched him in the face...

I really can't defend you anymore, Ms. Ma.

I'm sorry.

But these things happen in every company I go to.

Although I've never punched anyone before...

May I ask how you selected your team members?

Manager Park Sang-sun, Mr. Yoo Min-chul, and Ms. Lee Soo-il...

They're not the most impressive gems of the company.

I thought giving them one more chance to redeem themselves...

would be encouraging to all the other staff.

Of course, it depends on them...

whether they'll survive this project or not.

So you took Mr. So Jung-geun...

because he's the only one who can truly assist your project.

No.

I didn't choose him to give him work.

I just picked him to set him aside...

in order to develop new sales strategies.

Set him aside?

Because he's acknowledged by others as the best role model in sales,

they're just depending on what he's doing instead of trying new strategies.

So I wanted to get rid of their role model.

To get the water flowing,

you have to get rid of the rock that's blocking it.

So he's a rock that's blocking the water?

What he's really supposed to do right now...

is to do absolutely nothing.

Gosh, how embarrassing.

Jung-geun! Jung-geun! Jung-geun.

I heard you got your butt kicked by a girl?

Who is spreading such vicious rumors?

It's true. It's true.

It's true. It's really true.

Hello, Director Jung?

Yes, the rumors were true.

His eyes are black and blue!

What?

It was Ma In-sung who embarrassed our team's dark horse, So Jung-geun?

All right.

Team Leader Ma, you've humiliated our sales team as a whole!

Hello.

How can I help you?

Oh...

Can I get a detailed breakdown for July?

Certainly.

I knew it.

Oh, goodness...

Title: Cold Rice

I've become cold rice once again.

But sometimes cold rice is wanted, too.

For some, cold rice is something to be thrown out,

but for some, it's something that will satisfy your hunger.

I don't know why somebody who doesn't work like yourself...

is so hung up on eating.

It's not like you made any hot rice for me.

Can't you see me eating cold rice?

I refuse to be treated this way by you anymore.

Unless you can pay up within the next few days,

don't get on my nerves.

Sure.

Let's end living together from today once and for all.

That's exactly what I want to say to you.

I was at the bank just now.

Here.

What is that?

What do you think?

It's a breakdown of the pension you claim to have given me.

You paid off the mortgage with that money.

I paid off my mortgage with your money?

Look at it carefully. See where the money went ultimately.

Gosh, I can't believe I had forgotten all about it.

[Ma Jung-tae]

Ma Jung-tae?

Yes, Ma Jung-tae.

Your precious, loving brother, Ma Jung-tae.

You stole my bank account and took out $40,000...

to pay for renovating Jung-tae's pizza place.

That was that money...?

And that pizza place went out of business in just one year.

Your family insisted on opening the pizza place within July,

and we were about to marry Ji-sung off.

I was at my wits' end to cover her marriage dowries,

but all you cared about was Jung-tae's wife...

crying about the renovation so you gave her the money!

Gosh, I don't know! I can't remember a thing!

You don't remember?

Fine, let's go. Let's go.

Let's go to your brother's house and talk.

Once you start talking to them, you'll remember.

Let's go! Come on, let's go!

I bet the memories will come right back to you!

Goodness, me!

What's wrong with you today?

What? Do you remember something now?

Fine.

Let's say the money went to Jung-tae's...

Then I'm sure he paid us back by now.

Listen to me, Mr. Ma Jung-gi...

After that pizza place, he set up a chicken place.

Your family never thinks about paying back the money!

So? So what do you want me to do?

What do you think?

Get out of this house right this second!

You didn't contribute a cent to this house.

So get out right now! Get out! Get out! Out!

Fine, all right.

I'm leaving. Leaving!

Gosh, you're driving me crazy.

You think I have nowhere else to go?

I wanted to stay so that I can be a dad...

to my daughters. That's all!

Goodness...

Oh, whatever!

Where do you think you're going? Huh?

I said get out right now!

I have to get my stuff!

How long does it take to get your lousy stuff?

Just take what you have and leave!

If our daughters want to know how I'm doing,

just tell them they can call me.

Nobody will want to know how you're doing.

So don't you worry and just get out.

You did well until now, honey.

You won't be able to see me anymore.

Well, that's exactly what I want.

Goodbye, then.

Oh, gosh...

Why is he talking so much?

Oh, goodness...

What's this?

Cold Rice?

I've become cold rice once again?

At least he realizes that he's cold rice.

Is it you, Jung-tae?

How is Mother?

Really?

I was thinking of going to the hospital.

You were here all night last night.

My wife will be here today,

so come by tomorrow and rotate with her.

All right, then.

Hee-sung, how is she doing?

Well...

Her temperature and blood pressure are normal.

But the test results aren't out yet.

Grandmother, you still can't hear me?

Hello, Director Jung?

Yes.

Well, I did get punched, but I'm all right.

No, I'm really all right.

Right now?

Yes, sir. Alright.

Did my punch hurt that badly?

You're such a cry baby.

You were pretending to be such a man. But not so much!

Hey, stop right there!

Of course it hurts! I was punched in the eye!

Whether it's just one punch or two, of course it hurts!

You think men don't feel pain?

If only you weren't a woman...!

What would you have done then?

That's the cliche line that incompetent men say to women.

“If only you weren't a woman...!”

Gosh! Gosh!

That hurts!

Did you call for me?

Just look at him!

How can she make such a mess out of his face?

He does seem a bit swollen...

A... bit... swollen?

Team Leader Ma In-sung made a complete mess...

out of our handsome So Jung-geun!

How can she do something so outrageous?

This is like her insulting our company!

She dragged our #1 salesman to her team,

and made him wipe desks and make copies.

And she didn't give him any work!

And now, she resorted to violence with him!

I told you over and over that we don't need...

an outside consultant for our department.

That I can take care of coming up with new sales strategies, didn't I?

Mr. So, I want you to officially file a complaint.

I'm not going to let this slide!

You just trust me on this.

And regarding the violence,

you can even consider prosecuting her!

Understand?

Go right ahead.

Director Jung...

Thank you very, very much...

for worrying about me and my wellbeing.

And you're right.

It's true that I was punched in the face by Team Leader Ma.

And it's true that my eye became purple...

as a result of the punch.

However...

However?

It's not that she was being violent with me...

or that I wasn't defending myself.

What do you mean she wasn't being violent?

That face tells me that you were getting beaten up ruthlessly!

I had a drink with her last night.

We talked about work and just stuff in general.

And we talked about sports,

and we decided to have a boxing match for fun.

She actually did nothing wrong at all.

Oh, so that's what happened.

Oh, Team Leader Ma, so you were boxing as a hobby...

but made it to pro level several years ago, right?

What? She's a professional boxer?

Why, you!

Since I'm a professional boxer,

I shouldn't have had a match with just a regular man.

I was very wrong to do that.

I apologize for causing such trouble.

They're blaming themselves for this incident.

Gosh, I like how everyone from this team is so responsible.

I'm looking forward to having great results...

with all of you on board as a team.

Yes, sir.

Well, then.

All right. Goodbye now.

A professional boxer beat the daylights out of Jung-geun...

Hello, there.

Mi-yeon, how do you like working here?

Since you're so friendly,

I requested you to be transferred to this team.

Oh, I see.

Ma'am, do you like the poster like this?

I knew it...

I did my best, ma'am.

I'm not doing this to sell clothes.

I'm simply exhibiting art.

Take that off at once.

Hi, it's me, Ji-sung.

I'm surprised that you picked up my call.

I just called to test whether you would pick up or not.

Well, then...

Mother?

Professor Ma.

Oh, hello.

About providing you with a TA as we discussed...

There is one student who applied for a work scholarship,

so I'm sending him over to you.

His GPA is high, and he's very eager to study psychology.

I'm sure he'll be a very helpful assistant to you.

Thank you.

I'm about to start my research. That's wonderful news.

Thank you.

Sure.

Professor!

Hi, Seung-geun.

Thank you so much for letting me take your class.

I'm sure there was a spot opened since one student had to take a leave.

So, no need to thank me. You may go now.

All right.

Surprise!

What is it this time?

I became your TA!

I applied for a work scholarship,

and they contacted me right away.

You're my TA?

Did you pick me as your TA...

because you knew I needed the scholarship?

No. No, of course not.

Aren't you going to go home?

The guard is going to tell everyone to leave the building soon.

You should go home now.

I'll get going first.

Oh, I see.

Good night.

Gosh, I was going to just spend the night here...

Where do I go now?

Oh, goodness...

Good riddance!

I'm so happy to have him out of the house!

Oh, this feels good.

One, two, three, four. Two, two, three, four.

One...

What? What just swooshed by?

You said you were never coming back!

What do you think you're doing back here?

Open the door right this instant!

You're really going to keep this up?

Well, I'll see about that tomorrow morning!

[Subtitles provided by MBC]

[Preview]

However you wear it, it's for a woman.

Leave right this second.

How much were you thinking of?

$200?

Why is there so much dust here?

Hold on.

Let me put you through to Mom.

Why aren't you picking up my phone call?

Can't you tell by looking at them?

Sold out! Sold out! Sold out!

I think I'd have to open up her stomach to know.

Please prepare for a surgery.

I said I was okay.

You're messing with the wrong person.

Did that guy who has been asking for refunds...

barged in here or something?

Yes.
