[Episode 28]

Mr. So...

What is it? Why did you want to see me?

What's the matter with you?

What?

Is it fun being Joan of Arc?

Joan of Arc? What are you talking about?

Why? Why are you taking the fall?

I'm the one who should be responsible for this.

I opened the new system without your approval and created this mess.

If you take all the blame, what does that make me?

I'm the one who created this mess, and I should be responsible.

I'm going to be responsible for what happened.

You think you're some sort of hero in a movie?

Just who do you think you are?

How are you going to be responsible for this?

Are you the person in charge?

Are you the team leader?

Did you make our mobile system?

How are you going to take responsibility for it?

I heard that there will be a disciplinary committee tomorrow.

Who said that?

That there would be a disciplinary committee.

It's a false rumor?

No, we were originally planning to launch...

our mobile system next week,

but we decided to introduce the new system tomorrow.

And it started operating from yesterday.

Then there won't be any punishment?

I'm sure I'll be punished if our new system doesn't bring good results.

So please...

stop goofing off and do your work well.

I really want you to do your best...

and show everyone what you're made of.

Mr. So, you're the dark horse of our team.

See you tomorrow.

Oh, come on. I'm not the dark horse...

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

One, two, three, four.

I ended up making Ji-sung so upset.

How did things get so messy?

When I sealed the divorce papers,

I thought my future would be bright and happy.

Away with the vixen who's doing exaggerated advertising!

Right.

That jerk who demonstrated...

when he couldn't get a refund on his near-empty cleanser.

I should go to that real estate office and teach him a hard lesson!

Oh, gosh! Oh, gosh!

One, two, three.

Oh, gosh!

That witch who ruined my show is doing just fine...

and not even sending me a text to apologize.

While my sweet Ji-sung is besides herself...

because she feels so guilty to me.

Gosh!

I should just...!

Gosh!

I'm going to make that woman pay...

for everything that she's done to my Ji-sung!

I will! I will!

Honey, did you just get home?

Where's Mi-na?

She just fell asleep.

Is something bothering you?

I'm just upset about everything.

Because of what happened to your mother?

Mom is quitting her show host job.

Oh, really...?

My mom really screwed up this time.

And she manipulated you so much,

using your mother as an excuse.

If that's what you really think,

how come you didn't even stop by the hospital?

I actually did.

I went to your hospital room,

but I saw you surrounded by your mother and sisters.

You went all the way there but just left...

because I had my mom and sisters with me?

Well, you know how I am.

I don't mingle well with people.

Why? Were you waiting for me?

Who cares if I was waiting for you?

You left without so much as saying hi to me.

Ji-sung's mother is here.

Wait!

I'll take care of this, so you go to your room.

The light is still on, so somebody must be home.

What's she doing here at this hour?

Just what is she going to say to me?

My dear...

Why are you standing there like that?

Why, that's Ji-sung's mother!

Why aren't you opening the door?

No. No. No.

It's not like you can avoid her forever.

Just let her in and talk about it with her.

Ahh!

Tell her I'm not home.

Tell her that I went abroad.

Oh, goodness, my work room!

Not here.

Oh, my goodness, what do I do?

My dear...

Thank you.

I'm very sorry for coming by so late at night.

Why, it's perfectly all right.

Is your husband doing well?

He's always fine without a single worry in life.

Your wife isn't home?

Well, because of what happened yesterday,

she went abroad to get her mind off of things.

I see.

She must've gone through a lot because of what happened.

I'm happy to hear that she's traveling.

Thank you for saying that.

I beg you to be understanding of what my wife did to you.

Other people might say she has a nasty temper.

She might come off as a nasty and fickle person.

But you know how artists like her can be overly sensitive.

Yes, I fully understand her.

No artist can live a simple life the way I do.

Goodness, thank you so much for being so understanding.

Allow me to apologize on my wife's behalf.

Well, thank you for saying that.

However, I'm not here to get an apology.

Huh? Then what brings you here...?

Sometimes work can be successful and sometimes not so successful.

However, as a parent,

I feel that I should always protect the happiness of our children.

Happiness of our children?

You couldn't be more right about that.

When my daughter first brought Woo-jae home,

I was so happy and proud of them.

Oh, you're being too nice.

We were very happy with Ji-sung.

She's so lovely and bright.

I feel like it's our responsibility to help them any way we can...

so that the two can be successful in this society.

Why, of course! That's what we should do as their parents.

Well, then...

I hope you'll read this over sign right here.

What's this?

It's the "New Contract."

"New Contract?"

Their contract that was made...

when they first got married needed to be upgraded anyway.

And thankfully, your wife intervened...

and got rid of that contract.

At the bottom, if you look at the annexed part,

it states that both sides of the parents...

will not interrupt or intervene with Woo-jae and Ji-sung's career.

Oh, I see.

All right. I'll sign the contract right away.

A pen...

I brought one.

Oh, really?

Yes.

What?

I barely got Ji-sung to rip up that old contract.

She brought a new one?

Honey!

Who said you could sign such a contract?

My dear...

Well, now that you're here, please excuse me.

Enjoy your conversation.

Sure.

I thought you were traveling abroad.

Why are you coming from that door...?

That's not what's important right now.

What's that?

If you're upset with me, bring it up with me.

I just don't understand why you're venting out on our children.

That's actually what I wanted to ask you myself.

You used my show as an excuse to get rid of the old contract,

and you told my daughter to delete her thesis.

I was appalled to hear that.

Is that too much to ask of her as her mother-in-law?

Well, I believe I can ask your son for this much as his mother-in-law, too.

Don't you know the difference between...

having a son and a daughter?

I think I told you this before,

but there's a big difference between the two of us.

Well, you wouldn't know since you never had a son.

You're right. I don't know.

Since I only have daughters, I don't know what it's like to be you.

However, I'm proud to say...

that I raised my girls to be better than any sons.

Well, I...

I know there's a lot to be said and done between us,

but I won't tolerate you giving my daughter a hard time anymore.

I trust that you understand my point here.

I'll get going now.

Wait, no...

You can't take that...

Oh, no...

What?

I never had a son?

Fine. I never got to raise a son.

I guess having a son is all she can brag about.

I even deleted my thesis to make Mom's show work.

But since everything is ruined, I'm so upset.

But your mother is so competent.

I'm sure she'll find another job.

I want Mom to think only about herself from now on.

I just feel so guilty to her.

Hey, so you really deleted your thesis?

What do we do? It took you years to write that.

Thankfully, my TA is an engineer major...

and managed to retrieve my files.

That's great.

I really think that Mom went too far this time.

But you know how she always has to have things her way.

Hang on.

Hello, Mom?

Woo-jae, brace yourself.

Your mother-in-law remade a contract and got it signed.

You can't be relieved that your old contract is gone.

Don't let Ji-sung manipulate you with a contract,

and show her that you're the head of the family.

All right.

I said all right, Mom. Let's talk later.

What did she say?

You don't have to worry about it.

Where were we?

That your mother went too far this time.

Oh, that's right.

I knew she was being too harsh on you,

but I wasn't able to step up for you.

I'm sorry.

I know you couldn't help it.

Since your mother is so dominating...

I'll be good to you from now on.

Ji-sung.

Oh, Mom!

Mother, what are you doing here at this hour?

Oh, you were home?

I didn't think you'd be home.

Huh?

Oh, I had to bring Mi-na home...

Well, good that you're both home.

Come and sit down over here.

I brought something that'll make Ji-sung happy.

Come over here.

Read this.

"New Contract Dividing the House Chores for...

Baek Woo-jae and Ma Ji-sung?"

I couldn't just sit back after you left so upset earlier.

So I went to your in-law's house.

And I got this contract signed...

with both of your in-laws present.

It's much more rational and yielding than the old contract,

so I'm sure you'll like it.

Mom, why did you have to go...

all the way to my in-law's house over something like this?

What? This is an urgent matter.

Without this contract,

you two will argue over house chores again.

Mother.

We're arguing less because we don't have the contract anymore.

That's because Ji-sung is doing everything.

Men don't know how difficult it is.

No, Mom.

He promised to be good to me from now on.

I'll take care of everything from now on.

Ji-sung, how will you do that?

You'll have more stomach cramps...

after being yelled at by your mother-in-law.

I have to get used to my married life.

And he'll help me from now on.

You have a stomach cramp again, don't you?

Woo-jae.

Did your mother call you just now?

Yes, she did.

See? I can just tell by looking at her.

Did she complain about the new contract?

No, it's not that, Mom.

Mom, you should go home and rest now.

Who cares about resting?

Hang on just a minute.

Today is Wednesday.

Wednesday. Let's see.

Right, here it is. Here.

You should do the dishes on Wednesday night.

Did you do the dishes?

No.

What are you waiting for? Do the dishes.

Do them right now.

Mom, I'll have him do it tomorrow.

Why would you put off doing things?

Go do it right now.

Did you two have wine?

Yes. Since Mi-na went to sleep early...

We wanted to talk...

Woo-jae,

don't you know that she's not in the right health condition to drink?

Mom!

I'll take care of my own health!

I drank it because I wanted to.

It's not like he forced me to drink!

Right. Well, you're right.

I'll clean it up. You two finish your talk.

Did your mother-in-law say something to you?

Why are you so upset?

You went all the way to my in-law's house at this hour...

and came straight here all because of me.

Mom, you'll get sick this way. Please hurry home and rest.

Why would you worry about me?

Mom!

All right. So just go home.

Oh, all right.

All right. Call me right away if anything should happen.

Okay?

All right.

Oh, goodness...

Woo-jae, I'm leaving now.

Oh.

Get home safe, Mother.

All right.

Bye, Mom.

Good night.

I can't believe you yelled at your mom like that.

What if she's upset about the way I treated her?

Thank you. Goodbye.

Are you done with your work?

Yes.

Since everybody is so busy,

many of my clients come to sign the contract late at night.

Well, I wanted to know...

whether you had a chance to speak to my wife.

Oh, right.

I forgot because I was so busy.

Do you think she's home right now?

Yes. Although she comes home late sometimes,

she should be home by now.

I'll give her a call then.

So the point I'm trying to make is...

How dare she kick out the head of the family.

Yes.

And what will your girls learn from that?

Right.

Start respecting Mr. Ma as the head of the family...

and show some respect!

Gosh, I wouldn't even ask for that much.

Hang on.

I'll make sure I persuade her.

Oh, gosh.

What a long day.

Ouch, my feet hurt...

Oh, gosh...

My Ji-sung must've been very stressed.

Things will get better with the new contract.

What the...?

Why does he keep on calling me?

Hello?

Hi, I'm a friend of Mr. Ma Jung-gi.

I called to say some things to you.

What do you want this time?

Your husband, Mr. Ma Jung-gi,

doesn't have anything to eat and he's living in a small room...

without being able to pay for rent.

So?

If you're so worried, why don't you help him?

Why do you keep on calling me?

Ma'am.

What you're doing is wrong.

How can you kick out the head of the family?

You must start treating Mr. Ma as the head of the family.

Listen, Mister.

Mind your own business. Don't you have better things to do?

Who are you to poke your nose in other people's business?

Of course I have better things to do.

I'm a very busy person.

Anyway, the divorce isn't legit.

A divorce forced by one party is invalid.

What? Invalid?

Who are you to say my divorce is invalid?

Who are you exactly?

Who are you to call me about my husband?

What... what did she say?

This was part of my strategy.

Throwing the bait and hanging up.

Well, since I got my points across,

I'm sure she'll understand.

Oh, no!

It's my wife! What do I do?

Oh, yeah. Good. Good.

She's bitten the bait.

Calm down. Calm down.

Just trust me...

and say whatever you need to say.

Hello?

What's going on here?

Some man keeps on calling me...

and says our divorce is invalid.

Who is that guy?

Oh, him?

Oh, well...

Say you won't agree to it.

Say you'll never consent to the divorce.

He says I can't get divorced.

What?

Who says you can't get divorced?

Who told you that?

He's right next to you, isn't he?

He's telling you what to do, isn't he?

Who is he? What's going on?

Take the phone.

You can't give this to me.

Come on.

Honey, I'm hanging up now.

What's the matter with you?

Why couldn't you say what's on your mind to her?

I was so scared that I couldn't...

Why would you be scared?

I had you covered.

All you had to do was give her a piece of your mind.

Oh, gosh.

Oh, gosh. Oh, gosh.

Thanks for doing so much for me today.

Oh, no. Don't mention it.

Go up and rest now.

Good night.

How can he be so scared...

of his own wife and shiver in fear like that?

Gosh.

Jung-geun!

Why are you home so late?

Victory!

I'm home late because I had so much work to do.

Victory! At ease.

What's all that?

Oh, goodness.

You brought your work home, huh?

Yes.

Don't work too hard and take it easy.

Yes, sir. Victory.

Victory.

I really want you to do your best...

and show everyone what you're made of.

Mr. So, you're the dark horse of our team.

So I'm the dark horse?

Gosh, I don't know where to go next.

What are you doing?

Ms. Ma is at the emergency board meeting right now.

Emergency board meeting?

If she gets axed, we'll all be ousted.

So, we were going to pack our stuff.

I had a job offer before...

I should've just taken it.

Oh, goodness. What's wrong with you?

You have absolutely no loyalty.

Don't you know what General Yi Sun-shin once said?

"If you try to live, you'll die,

but if you try to die, you'll live."

If our team is in a hard situation, we should try to help Ms. Ma together.

Wow, Mr. So.

That sounded a bit cool.

Just a tiny bit.

She actually didn't go to an emergency meeting.

She's introducing our new mobile system to the board...

instead of waiting until next week.

So we have to do our work harder.

You mean we're not getting fired?

We're not getting fired.

Then shall we unpack?

From offline to online,

the pattern of consumption is changing mobile consumption.

Every year, the speed of growth is increasing.

It's been about a month since I joined JW.

The first thing I realized is that more than any other enterprise,

we focus on traditional sales strategies...

and only try to maintain the safe sales profit percentages.

However, while we aren't accepting the changes,

consumers are getting used to new purchasing methods...

and changing their ways.

Therefore, we're test operating from yesterday...

a new mobile distribution system...

where consumers can purchase a product with a simple click.

Patient Ahn Jin-bong didn't even fracture his bone.

So why is he in a cast?

And he's not even badly hurt.

What's he doing in the VIP room for days?

We already told him that he's free to leave.

But he keeps on insisting to have this and that test,

and he's delaying leaving the hospital.

Excuse me, Dr. Ma Hee-sung.

What is it?

I'm in VIP Room #5.

I'd like to request a special meal.

A special meal?

Since you have so many medical tests tomorrow, you'll have to fast.

I'm just undergoing checkups for the sake of it.

The test results mean nothing to me.

Do I get to choose my own menu?

You think you're in a hotel right now?

You're such a beauty,

and you're so funny, too.

Oh!

You didn't do the pain test yet.

No, I didn't.

Should I do it for you?

Why, of course! Thank you.

I need to know the level of your pain.

Let me know on a scale of 1 to 10.

That just tickles me.

One.

Okay, one.

What about now?

It hurts just a little.

Oh, it hurts a little?

How about now?

Ouch!

Oh, goodness. It hurts a lot?

Oh, no.

It doesn't hurt at all.

My, my. You must be very tolerant to pain.

Well, the next level is...

Ahhh!

[Subtitles provided by MBC]

[Preview]

Huh? Everyone knows about me getting fired?

Are you feeling better?

You think I will change my mind if you do this for me?

My wife wants to go the court to register our divorce paper.

She is capable of coming over to look for me.

Let's get out of here.

Wait for me.

I don't want to be the dark horse any more.

Look at all that dead skin. It keeps coming off.

What do you think you're doing?

What do you mean?

Where have you been?
