[Summer Strike]

I've been running towards somewhere for a while.

I'm running with all my might,

but I don't know where to go.

[One way]

I think this time I'm in a school.

The closer I get to the classroom,

the clearer I realize.

The door is locked as usual.

Sir! I'm here. Can you open the door, please?

Sir!

Can someone open the door for me?

Sir, can't you hear my voice?

- Let's gather the papers now.
- Open the door, please!

Open the door. Open it!

Please open the door for me!

Can't you hear me?

Is this similar to the men's nightmare
of being dragged back into the military?

The train is approaching the station.

The screen doors are opening.

The places I arrived after running with all my might

were the school, the office,

and sometimes, the college entrance exam site.

The place is always different,

but it always ends the same.

It's a dream where I'm left alone in front of a closed door.

[Summer Strike: Episode 1]

Hello, I'm Lee Yeo Reum from Planning Team 1.

Hello, I'm Lee Yeo Reum from Planning Team 1.

From the hand to the poem.

It's not writing that's physically piled up...

Oh, no!

Yeo Reum, were you practicing the presentation?

When did you get to the point of putting out the proposal?

"From the hand to the poem."
Wow, the concept is very--

The concept is a bit old.

Are you all ready?

This is important today.

Oh, you look pretty okay today.

Then, I'll go get the CEO.

Wait, Team Leader. This might not be a critical matter.

Why are you making me nervous? What is it?

I heard that the new CEO has very high taste.

I heard that he doesn't drink cheap coffee.

But would he be okay with this canned coffee?

- Is that true?
- Yes.

Geisha coffee? I heard that he only drinks those fancy ones.

Wait a minute.

What did you just say?

I said Geisha coffee.

Yeo Reum.

Did you not know about this?

- I'm so sorry.
- I mean!

Isn't it basic to know the tastes of your superiors?

Should I go out right now and get some?

Hurry up and go get it. I can't hold him for a long time.

How can you walk?

[Coffee]

Can I have some Geisha coffee?

From the hand to the poem.
Let me present the concept of this project.

As you can see here, each poem
will contain the poet's personality,

the ambiance at the time of writing,

and the emotions the poet was feeling.

In the case of the poet we are seeing right now--

You can tell that this poem is written
thinking about "you" while indulging in the mood.

In a poem like this, you can see...

It was absolutely amazing.

You always talked about investing well
and making a lot of money.

But this time, the project is about
analog sentiment for this era.

I love the idea. I'm impressed.

Thank you so much.

We are still a long way behind in following your vision, CEO.

What if we do the handwriting project
as a series for each writer?

Thank you, sir.

I'll do my best, sir!

Why don't we all have lunch together today?

- Yes, sir.
- Why don't we go out altogether?

You were amazing today! I almost
thought you prepared this project.

Team Leader.

The CEO came in right after you left.

- So we panicked.
- That's right.

While you were putting your effort into getting the coffee,

Assistant Manager Kim managed
to give the presentation somehow.

Thank you for your hard work.

But I think it might be a lot for Da Mi to clean up alone.

You are right.

I'll go and help her.

Will you? Then, have a nice lunch.

Thank you for getting the coffee. Thanks.

Hello?

My daughter!

- Yes, Mom.
- Are you busy?

No, it's lunchtime right now.

What's wrong with your voice? Did something happen?

Nothing happened. Why did you call?

I was going to send you some homemade food like
stir-fried anchovies. You finished the kimchi, right?

Should I send you some kimchi, too?

I still have that.

Didn't you finish it yet?

You have to eat properly! And don't eat out often.

I get it! I'll take care of it myself.

Okay, all right.

I'm sorry.

Is there anything you need?

I'll get it and bring it for your birthday this time.

I don't need anything! And you don't
have to come home for my birthday.

Then I'll get something on my own.

Oh, that's right.

How are your knees?

It's fine now. It was a temporary thing.

You shouldn't work in a restaurant
anymore. You promised me.

- All right.
- Yeo Reum's mom!

Did you wash all the cabbages?
Why don't you come and have some coffee?

- Yes!
- Mom, you are working in a restaurant again, aren't you?

Oh, I'm taking your lunchtime away.
I'll call you again later!

Why is she working in a restaurant again?

I told you I'm working until late tonight.

You didn't eat dinner, did you?

I know you like sushi from here.

You didn't have to.

You have to go back to work right away, right?

- Excuse me, can I have another beer?
- Okay.

When I was running with the cars
with the coffee, I wasn't afraid at all.

So I brought the coffee to the meeting room,

but then the CEO said he doesn't drink any coffee!

And Da Mi says Assistant Manager Kim deceived me on purpose.

Do you think that's true?

So what you are questioning right now

is if they lied to you or not. Is that correct?

Yes, sort of.

Okay. Let's say...

they did lie to you.

But why?

Why would they do that?

It's a lie that'll be revealed in a second.

I know.

Why? Why are they walking all over you?

Let's think about it.

Let's think about if you really
didn't do anything wrong.

Oppa.

Also, the real problem here is not their lie.

It's that you didn't go into that meeting room.

Think if you went in there all sweaty with the coffee.

The CEO would've loved it.

So if you got in there today and did the presentation,
it would've been the jackpot for you.

Don't you think so, Yeo Reum?

Yeo Reum, the lie is not the problem right now.

Your complacency is a problem.

What is it?

Are you angry again because I said it like this?

You always liked to teach me things.

But...

I don't think you were mad at me before
while telling me things I didn't know.

Yeo Reum, I...

I'm not mad at you right now.

It's not that I'm angry at you.

But I got a bit tired of you.

Oppa.

I dated him for six years since when we were in college.

Over time, we have changed.

And throughout that time, I started to get
obsessed with the idea of getting married.

Since I was like that, I wouldn't
have looked attractive anymore.

[I'm sorry for complaining when you're busy.]

[I'm sorry for complaining when you're busy.
I won't do that again.]

I shouldn't have gone there to see him today.

[Jae Dong Oppa: Yeo Reum... Let's have some time apart.]

[What are you talking about it?]

[What are you talking about it?]

[Jae Dong Oppa: You know what I mean. I think that's better for both of us. I'll talk to you later.]

I haven't heard from my boyfriend since then.

It's not like this hasn't happened in six years.

But usually, he called me back right away.

Yeo Reum.

Yeo Reum!

- Yes?
- What are you doing?

The Team Leader is calling you.

Ah, yes.

Come in here for a second.

Has it been four years since you start working here?

Yes, it's been about four years and three months.

Right, okay.

It must be the time when
you want to work hard, isn't it?

Is that why you do this?

Oh, well...

We have been only working with Joo Seong until now,
and they get paid 100 million won from us.

Yes. Oh, keep going.

So I looked around and found another company with
newer machines, and they asked for 80 million won.

80 million won.

Then we are saving 20 million won, right?

Yeo Reum.

Do you know why I hired you?

Do you?

Frankly, you are not a charming woman
like Assistant Manager Kim.

You are like, how should I put this?

Right, you are like a cow.

Put your head down and do what
you are told to do, like a cow.

That is your strength.

A small company like ours doesn't have a system,

so everyone needs to do what they are good at.

So I want you to do what you are
ordered to do in silence like a cow.

Got it?

But how dare you try to change
the printing company on your own?

Why? Is it because the CEO loved your proposal yesterday,
so you thought it was the chance?

No, I'm sorry.

Wow, you're scary. You are so ambitious!

Yeo Reum.

Do you know what you would be if this were the military?

The military dog.

You are not a human level yet.

So please don't use your brain to do
something you are not told to do so.

Oh, my. Nothing's easy.

I'm starving.

Why is everything not working out for me?

Hello?

[Emergency Room]

Don't forget your card.

[Emergency Room]

- Yeo Reum!
- Oppa!

Yeo Reum, what should we do now?

Where's Mom?

I was having a drink with my friends at the fishing hole.
But then I got a call from the police.

I asked you where our mom is!

Our mom...

Our mom... Where is she?

Is she your mother?

Mom..!

Yeo Reum.

Go to sleep.

We have to wake up early tomorrow to go see your dad.

Mom.

I still sniff garlic whenever I miss you.

Why would you sniff garlic?

When we were young, you worked at a restaurant,

and you always came in late
after my brother and I were asleep.

And when you patted my head at the time,

your hand smelled like garlic.

I'm sorry.

Why are you sorry?

The one who needs to be sorry is someone else.

Are you talking about Dad?

I won't leave him alone when I see him again.

What are you going to do?

First of all, I'm not going to move even my fingers.

And I'll just sleep as much as I want.

I don't know. I'll make him do everything that's hard.

Mom.

I'll do everything for you.

I'll make a lot of money and take you to see flowers

and go to see the ocean.

I'll do everything for you.

So please don't age too fast, Mom.

Yeo Reum.

Yes?

I love you.

I love you, too.

My mom couldn't rest until the very end of her life.

You don't have to come out.
Why don't you go back inside?

Thank you for coming.

It's nothing.

I didn't know you would come.

How can she pass away this suddenly?

I bet you are going through a lot.

I'm sorry I can't be next to you.

Take good care of everything until the end.

Also, don't forget to eat when you can

and sleep when you can.

Okay?

Hang in there, Yeo Reum.

You can do it, okay?

Hurry up and go back inside. I'll get going now.

Like that, everyone left.

We buried our mom next to our father.

I'm sure my mom would've met up with my dad
by now and made him work hard for her.

I hope she's doing so.

My youngest baby.

Why doesn't your voice have energy these days?

You don't have to come home for my birthday.

I hope you can cheer up after eating what I made for you.

I love you.

From Mom.

Mom...

Mom...

Mom, I'm sorry.

I go to work.

And I get off from work.

I go to work.

And I get off from work again.

Go to work.

Get off from work.

And go to work again.

I'm still alive, whether I like it or not.

Yeo Reum, you are going to hurt your wrists.

I can't work because of her loud typing noise.

I'm sorry.

Yeo Reum! Can you go wash my cup?

My arm is about to drop!

Nothing has changed.

Maybe nothing has happened

in the first place.

Every day, the same sun goes down.

And the same sun rises again.

Nothing has changed in this world.

It's just me who became an orphan.

This station is Samsong. Samsong station.

The door is on your right.

Excuse me.

Oh, wait! Excuse me, sir! Excuse me!

Excuse me! Wait!

What the heck is this? Seriously!

What an unlucky thing from the morning!

What an annoying thing!

Mister! Mister!

[Team Leader, I think I'll be late about 20 minutes.]

Spring has come.

I'm not going to work.

[Way Out]

[Team Leader Choi Ji Won]

The subway on a weekday morning
going away from Seoul City

was a totally different world

that was quiet, calm, and peaceful.

Maybe life is like this, too.

If you go in the opposite direction
from where everybody else goes,

wouldn't it be quieter, calmer, and more peaceful?

I must have lost my mind.

[Missed Calls from Team Leader Choi Ji Won]

Oh, that's right.

I decided not to go to work.

[Team Leader Choi Ji Won]

Hello?

Hey, where are you right now? Are you crazy?

Why the heck are you not picking up the phone?

Team Leader.

Do you think you can still work fine after doing this?

I'm sorry. I'll quit my job.

What? What the heck are you saying?

Unni, I was so surprised.

Are you really leaving?

What should I do without you?

You'll do great, Da Mi.

- Da Mi, can you make a copy of this?
- Ah, okay.

Yeo Reum.

Can we talk for a second?

Oh, my.

How can you leave your job so suddenly?

Are you getting married, perhaps?

No.

Why are you standing so awkwardly when it's just us?

Have a seat.

I was a bit not nice lately, didn't I?

Sometimes, I'm overly passionate.

Yeo Reum.

I'm saying this because you are like my baby sister.

I also graduated from a university outside of Seoul.

You might not believe it, but it's true.

I, who graduated from an engineering college outside
of Seoul, became a Team Leader of this Planning Team 1.

How do you think I would've been until now?

It wasn't easy for me, of course.

To please my seniors, I tend
them around for drinking and eating.

Compared to those days, it's different nowadays.

So my point is,

it's not the time for you to take time off from your work.

He's right. I mean, it's good to have a little break.

But think about trying to get another job.

That's right, Yeo Reum. Why don't you trust me just once?

You know you are on my line, right?
Just stick right behind me!

Then your future is just paved straight like the Autobahn!

Thank you for saying that.

Of course.

But...

I'm going to quit my job, no matter what.

I have to see the CEO.

So excuse me first.

Yeo Reum.

For f**k's sake, you really don't understand what I'm saying.

Are you really going to leave this company?

Oh, you are really going to quit.

Sure, why don't you quit? Let's see what you can do.

Team Leader!

I was going to keep her around
for a bit since she was easy to boss around.

But f**k. These days kids don't know how to endure.

It's an insult for me to be considered a
Generation MZ together with those kinds of punks.

F**k...

"F**k?"

Did you just say that to me?

Yeo Reum!

You should've made it bearable first
before asking me to endure.

Why do I have to get insulted even when I'm leaving?

Why are you saying it like that, Yeo Reum?

He's also saying it for you.

For me?

That's not true.

It's because he's afraid I might tell the CEO

that the Team Leader got the rebate.

What?!

Hey, you!

Are you trying to pick a fight with me? Seriously!

Calm down!

Apologize to me.

Are you out of your mind?

Both of you, you should apologize to me.

You are really crazy!

I know you got 20 million won from Joo Seong company.

And you are afraid I might say that to the CEO.

Seriously, this crazy wench!

I can't let you go like this.
Let's go to see the CEO together.

Wait, wait!

Yeo Reum, get yourself together. What's wrong with you?

It's not me, but you have to get yourself together.

He tells every female employee to have drinks together,
go to karaoke, or even go to a love motel together!

You better stop!

He tried that on me, but it didn't work,
so he went to you.

Wow!

Are you saying I seduced you?

She's a total lunatic!

Do you want me to show you your texts?

What is it? Is it true?

What texts? This wench is very scary!

- What is going on?
- Do you trust that girl's words?

I'm saying it's not true!

The CEO is looking for Yeo Reum.

I get it!

- What text is she talking about it?
- There's nothing.

- Show me your phone.
- I told you there's nothing.

- Give me your phone.
- I said there's nothing.

- Give me your phone! Where is it?!
- Wait, wait!

- Where is your phone?!
- Wait for a second!

Everyone, calm down.

If I...

If I say sorry to you, would that make it up to you?

I'm sorry. I must have been out of my mind, no.

It's all my fault. Can you please forgive me once?

It's none of my business whatever you two do.

But at least don't harm other people's lives.

Yes, yes, I won't. So, please...

Excuse me. Can you open the gate for me?

Thank you.

Until now, I've been living in a daze.

I've tried my best not to fall behind or get insulted.

But now that I think about it,
the one who insulted me the most

was myself.

How many pyeong did you plant it?

I've only planted a thousand pyeong.

This man here planted two thousand pyeong.

You have to plant at least a thousand pyeong to grow potatoes.

But it needs to rain! It hasn't been raining lately.

Everything is drying up.

I know. But what can we do?

My monthly wage was 2.38 million won.

That has been exchanged with my time until now.

From now on, I'm going to use that time

only for myself.

You would already know,
but I don't let anybody do the work.

So take this as your opportunity.

Please take good care of the work today. Try your best.

Wait, wasn't Assistant Manager Kim working on this?

What's so important if it was her work or not?
We are all on the same team!

You know, the teamwork!

So go do the work.

Hey.

Wow, this dirty bastard.

Wow, it's absolutely disgusting.

[Chats]
[Group Chat]

[From Lee Yeo Reum]

[From Team Leader Choi Ji Won to Lee Yeo Reum]
[- Come to the hotel the River later.]
[- Hotel?]

[- Yes, Hotel the River. Yeo Reum, why aren't you picking up the phone?]
[- Team Leader, I'm sorry, but this is not right.]

Hey, Team Leader Choi!

Ah, it's nice.

From now on, I'm not going to do anything.

My life is on strike!

[Summer Strike]

A man can be destroyed

but not defeated.

That's right. Here, I'll live without worrying about other people's eyes.
[Library Membership Card]

I'll do as I wish.

What's wrong with that young woman?

What a disgrace.

How much did she drink for
her to fall asleep in the library?

- I'm sorry.
- Sure!

If you can't live there anymore,
then move out whenever.

There's nothing more to lose.

Let's live to the fullest and not regret anything.

I can do it!
