BUSINESS PROPOSAL

EPISODE 1

I should be arriving in about an hour.

Yes, I understand.

What the hell?

Are you all right?

I was on my phone and wasn't watching where I was going.

This is absurd.

What?

What did you just say?

Don't worry, he wasn't talking to you.

And who are--

You should be clearer about who you're talking to, sir.

-She misunderstood-- -Can you believe this ad?

You can hardly tell what product they're promoting.

They've only slapped some nameless celebrity on it.

You're right. I've never seen that guy before.

Find out who was in charge of this ad immediately.

Yes, sir.

APPLE EXTRACT

SHIN HA-RI

Yes, Ms. Yeo. Oh, already? Yes, I'm on my way. Okay.

Coming through.

-Ms. Yeo. -What's this smell?

-Hey. -Why are you so late?

Because of the mackerel.

Take it easy, will you?

You stink of fish.

Is it that bad? I can't really tell.

How could you not? Come here.

It's fine. It's just proof of how hard you're working as a researcher.

INAUGURATION OF PRESIDENT KANG TAE-MOO

The inauguration will start soon. Please be seated.

-Let's go sit. -Okay.

-Hello. -This is our new hire, Hye-ji.

Anyway, looks like the rumors are true. President Kang's quite the workaholic.

He's starting work on the day he came back to Korea.

I heard he's really hot.

Who knows? He wasn't here when I joined the company, so I never saw him.

But look at the chairman. How hot could the grandson be?

It's been a long time coming.

-So the rumors aren't true. -No.

He's really handsome. He looks like a celebrity.

Please. The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree, you know.

President Kang will now make his inauguration address.

There he is.

He's super hot!

That's…

-Hello, everyone. -Why is he…

I am Chief Secretary Cha Sung-hoon, here on behalf of President Kang.

What's going on?

The chief secretary?

I will now deliver his inauguration address.

What is this…

"Thank you to everyone who arranged today's ceremony,

even though I clearly told you that I didn't want one."

"I hope going forward, we will meet for business matters,

not for such impractical and ceremonial events."

"I will properly introduce myself soon."

-Is that it? -"Thank you."

-"President Kang Tae-moo." That'll be all. -This is amazing.

God, these bastards! Damn it!

Oh, he's mad!

Look!

So where is the president?

The new president sure seems like an interesting person.

Why won't it just go straight? Come on!

Come on, you're just stressed because of the chairman's grandson.

Yes. Everyone thought you were going to become the new president.

That kid snatched it away.

We still believe in you, Mr. Park!

I think this might help you feel better.

What's this? And what's with that suspicious look on your face?

Ta-da!

I tucked the rest nicely in the trunk of your car.

What is this?

It's beautiful!

It went in!

That was amazing!

But who the hell was that? Where are your manners?

It's been a while, Mr. Park.

Look who it is? Tae-moo! Or should I say, President Kang?

Why are you here? What about the inauguration?

I heard you've been working hard.

Taking bribes from friends, relatives,

and even from your mistress to sell contracts to be our partners.

Wait a second. I think you've been hearing rumors.

You even hired a D-list celebrity

for the company ad just because he's your nephew.

I saw it at the airport.

No, that's…

You must have thought it was okay to take advantage of our company like that

since the chairman's turned a blind eye to what you do.

President Kang, listen. It's not like that.

I've been inattentive to company matters, spending so much time abroad.

I intend to pay closer attention from now on.

I'll see you tomorrow, then, Mr. Park.

Hey, President Kang!

Wait, President Kang!

President Kang.

Mr. Park! Are you okay?

-What is this? -Damn it.

-What's going on? -What is this?

Since it's Ms. Shin's birthday, I made reservations at Auntie's Street Food

for our team dinner today. Ms. Shin's favorite!

All right. How long has it been?

Oh, you guys didn't have to do that just for my birthday.

Thank you.

What are you talking about? A team's got to stick together.

You're buying, right?

Great!

Happy birthday. Can you swing by? I have something for you.

Ms. Yeo, I'm sorry, but I don't think I can make it to the team dinner today.

Why? What is it?

Is it a guy?

How did you know?

Because your soulless eyes are suddenly sparkling. That's how.

Okay, go on.

It looks like we'll have to celebrate Ms. Shin's birthday

without the birthday girl.

An inauguration without the president,

and a birthday party without the birthday girl?

What's going on?

Seriously. This is like celebrating Thanksgiving without a turkey.

I'm sorry. I promise the next dinner is on me!

I'm sorry.

Hello?

Ha-ri!

I'm so busy, I can't even meet up with you on your birthday.

So what's my girl got planned?

Min-woo wants to see me, so I'm heading over.

One moment.

Min-woo?

Why is he calling you on your birthday?

After he made you do all that work for his new menu?

That was hardly work. I had a blast, and I learned a lot too.

Goodness, you're really head-over-heels for Min-woo.

But he's never been the type to remember birthdays. Why is he--

Wait, no way!

No way, what?

Was that necklace from before really your birthday gift?

Necklace?

Why is a woman's necklace here?

Maybe some customer left it behind.

There's even a certificate of authenticity!

Look, this is garnet!

That's my birthstone.

Is he dating a girl born in January?

Remember that foreign model girl?

She went back to her country after Min-woo rejected her.

Then is it that journalist writing an article on his restaurant?

She was flirting with Min-woo but stopped after he friendzoned her.

The YouTuber then!

That YouTuber? She asked him out on a livestream.

And got rejected live. Right.

Maybe it's your birthday present.

You think? Let me see.

No, this is way too expensive to buy for a friend.

-Right? -Yeah.

It has to be!

That necklace really was for you!

You said that it was too expensive to buy for a friend.

Well, what if he's planning to transfer

from the friendship train to the boyfriend express?

If you are transferring to Train 6, please exit at the next stop.

The exit is to the right.

-Has the inauguration been taken care of? -Yes, it went well.

What about the chairman?

You crazy bastard.

I told you to come to the inauguration. You blow me off.

I told you to meet me at the house, but you meet me at work.

You're determined to go against me, aren't you?

Of course not. I've simply been too busy.

You just flew back in today! You can't take a single damn day off?

No, I can't. There are too many things that need to be taken care of.

What now?

Why the hell does Park keep on calling me?

What things need to be taken care of?

This is a well-oiled machine. You're nitpicking.

You think you're the only smart one in the world.

Are you realizing that now?

You know none of my projects has failed, right?

Even the kimchi project was a hit overseas.

Yes, I'm aware. That's actually why

I've prepared a very important project for you.

What kind of project?

Marriage!

Are you getting married, sir?

Not me!

No, thank you. I'm too young to get married.

But I'm not getting any younger, you know.

Is it too much to ask to see my grandson with a wife?

Yes, it's too much. I'm not seeing anyone,

and I don't plan to anytime soon.

Besides, I have a lot of work to do.

That's why I've arranged all the blind dates for you.

-What? -I've put together a list

of 20 elite, single ladies in the business world for you to meet.

All you have to do is show up.

Okay?

You made the list yourself?

Wow, that couldn't have been easy.

That's right, it wasn't easy.

If I had anyone else do it,

the entire finance sector would be buzzing with rumors.

-So-- -You've wasted your time.

I won't ever go on any of your arranged dates.

You little brat. What am I going to do with you?

What is it?

ALARM 9:00 P.M. TIME TO WATCH DRAMA

It's time already, huh?

It's already time.

BE STRONG, GEUM-HUI

It's started already.

NO-EUL

JU HUI-JAE

KIM JEONG-HWA

Let's see.

If you're just going to watch TV, go home.

Do you think I'm going to listen to you when you don't listen to me?

I'll watch it here.

It's been quite a while since he broke up with Yu-ra.

Maybe he's finally noticed that you've had a crush on him and is ready to accept?

No way.

What? Why is it so dark?

Is Min-woo really--

Attention, please. Min-woo is about to transfer

from the friendship train to the boyfriend express.

What are you waiting for? Run to him and give him a hug already!

Run!

Min-woo.

GYU-SIK LOVES BO-HUI HAPPY 100TH DAY

What's her problem?

This is so annoying.

Yikes, I really messed that up for you, didn't I?

It's okay. I was doing it since they're regulars.

I just gave them the food for free.

Anyway, sorry. You must be busy. I'll get going.

Wait a second.

Happy birthday, Ha-ri.

BUSINESS PROPOSAL

A DAY TO SKETCH

Happy birthday, Ha-ri.

Tickets to your favorite singer's concert.

They weren't easy to get, so make sure you go with a guy and not with Young-seo.

Okay.

Go on.

You have no clue what I really like.

Good going.

You're eating instant food as your first meal back in Korea

when you know how to cook everything from Korean to Western!

Wouldn't it be nice to sit at the dinner table with your wife

and enjoy a good home-cooked meal?

I'm not getting married just for that.

I hear American women are beautiful.

Did you really not date at all? I'm open-minded, you know.

I have no time for that. I'm busy enough with work.

That's why I've scheduled your blind dates for you. So--

I told you I'm not interested, didn't I?

Are you two dating?

-What? -What?

It seems that way.

You two are joined at the hip, using work as an excuse.

I don't know about him, but I'm not gay.

And even if I liked men,

-President Kang isn't really my style. -Is that so? Not your style?

Hey, what do you mean? What's wrong with me?

Fine. If you're not, you're not.

Then why are you so against going on these dates?

What is it now?

ALARM 10 P.M. TIME TO TAKE BLOOD PRESSURE MEDS

Ah, shoot…

I can take care of myself, so just go watch your TV shows.

Isn't that alarm for them?

It's for my blood pressure medication!

My blood pressure is so high nowadays because of you.

I'm taking pills every day!

How is that my fault? It runs in the family.

It'd be your fault if I got high blood pressure.

You little--

I'm calling your name

But the sun sets quietly Without a response

SHIN JOONG-HAE AND THE WILDFLOWERS GUITAR CLUB MEETING

Thank you.

Hey, everyone, help yourselves.

Eat up, guys.

Okay.

-Cheers! -Bottoms up!

Cheers!

-Sir, can I get some more of these chips? -Go ahead.

-Mom! -Gosh, what? You scared me!

I told you that you have to coat the chicken properly to make it crispy.

I told you you have to be thorough.

But I am tossing it!

If we're not going to do things right, we should just close up shop.

I guess that's why the chicken Ha-ri makes tastes better.

You're the best!

Of course! She works at a major company, after all. She's different.

Why are you so edgy today?

It can't feel great to have to work on your birthday, of all days.

So what? I'm the one who gave birth after 20 hours of labor!

Toss and toss and toss…

Will he be all right?

Yes. His blood pressure's higher than usual, but it's not serious.

What do you mean, it's not serious?

Last time, you said that my lungs,

kidneys, and small intestine weren't doing great.

What? I did?

Doctor!

Oh, yes, that's right. I remember now.

Considering his age, things can change drastically day by day.

And you said I should avoid stress more than anything, right?

Yes, sir.

-Everyone around him should be careful. -Did you hear that?

It seems you're fine, so drop the act and get out of bed.

You! Do you really want to see me die because of you?

I'm going to--

Since you're already here, why don't you get a full checkup?

I'm leaving.

SEOUL KANGSUNG HOSPITAL

What's the point of group reservations?

You give them a discount,

and they just fill up on the free snacks.

Why has she been so grumpy all day?

Hey, Ha-ri.

Don't you have a boyfriend who can throw you a birthday party or something?

I didn't leave anything in front of

-your store! -What's going on?

I told you I saw it! This is yours!

You've got a big mouth for a kid!

-Yes, I do! -What?

-Hey. -What? What is it?

Why is this in front of our store?

I put it there for a minute

because a customer parked in front of our store!

I know you put it here whenever you get the chance.

Did you see me do it?

It's obvious! We find fish bones all the time!

We don't sell fish! We sell chicken.

-Take it. -We don't sell fish either.

It says it right there. "Fish, dried fish, mackerel, so on."

-Take it. -Honey, come on.

We're all neighbors here. There's no need to fight. Let's talk it out.

-I'm doing this so we don't have to fight. -Come on, take it!

This is a new shirt! I had it shipped from abroad!

-You toss it! Do what you want with it! -Hey, don't shove it at him!

I didn't…

You were the one who started it!

Get in here.

Man, breaking the neighbor's store sign and everything…

I feel so bad.

Everyone in the Shin family has such a temper!

As if it wasn't enough that Ha-min started fighting, why did you do that?

I got this temper from you, Mom.

Yes, why are you blaming it on the Shins?

What? Since when did you two get along so well?

You guys just have to talk back like that, don't you?

It's because I take after you, Mom!

It's my birthday!

Why are you hitting me?

You can't keep on using that as an excuse!

I made you seaweed soup in the morning! Isn't t
