All language subtitles for VIP E05

JUNE, 2002

Who is it?

I'm sorry. I didn't know you were here.

What are you doing here at this hour?

I need to print some photos.

Right now?

I missed the last bus,
so I stayed to get the first one.

I'm going to the darkroom
once I get the film. Get some more sleep.

Let me give you a hand.

Thank you.

So this is how you do it.

Is this how you develop films?

-Have you ever done this?
-No.

This is my first time in the club room
after the welcoming party for freshmen.

Why did you join the photography club?

To hit on Young-jin.

Do you want to know why?

You must have your reasons.

He wasn't as attractive as I had imagined.

And he was very obsessive.

You're like a magician.

I wonder why you're doing this at dawn.

Because it's quiet.

And I can watch the sun rise.

What's your name?

I think I saw you at the welcoming party.
But I can't remember your name.

It's Park Sung-jun.

Sung-jun.

I'm Lee Hyun-a.

You might already know me since
Young-jin told everyone that I'm a bitch.

You don't deny it?

Because it's true.

Unbelievable.

They're all pictures of people.

Do you like people?

Maybe.

Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't.

Are you always this serious?

Why don't we leave now?

Now I realize why you come so early.

If I dare to come on to you,
will you let me in?

No.

Why not?

I hate being involved in an entanglement.

And you're not my type.

Then what is your type?

Someone who's single-hearted.

I am single-hearted too.

Except that it changes once in a while.

Don't jump to a conclusion yet.

I may become your type.

You're good at basketball.

I'll see you around.

Who is she?

Is he your new target?

Not yet.

-He's my last target.
-Your last target?

I'm too young to settle down with one guy.

I've chosen him as my last destination.

You're being ridiculous.

Things don't work out as you wish.

We'll see...

how things go.

I never wanted you to see me
like this again.

I'm embarrassed to death.

I'm showing you my lowest point.

What?

That's not it.

What's not it?

-It's not what you're thinking.
-What do you think I'm thinking?

What is it that you think I'm thinking?

We're in the office. Let's talk inside.

You're unbelievable.

You're so rational
even in the midst of chaos.

Let me explain.

I have

some debts.

My mom's business has failed.

So things got a bit complicated
in many ways.

Since when?

Quite a while.

That's why I'm back at work.

I was in need of money.

Why didn't you tell me?

Should I have...

told you?

I hit rock bottom many times.

I must have lost my mind.

I thought you got off work.

These are the samples
for the product fair.

I'm checking in advance.

You should go.

It's the security chip.

COOPERATION FORM

REQUEST FOR SECURITY CHIP CLEARANCE

Hello, sir.

No, it's okay.

I'll have to see the files first.

I'll call you back in ten minutes.

REQUEST FOR SECURITY CLEARANCE
FOR THE VIP STORAGE

APPROVE

Hyun-a.

Just follow the rules.

I deserve to get fired.

The report for the request.

Cancel it.

Erase your records.

After all,

you wouldn't have made it
with all those records.

You're smart.

I doubt that.

I don't trust myself anymore.

I didn't want you
to see me like this again.

I'm embarrassed to death.

I'm showing you my lowest point.

What?

Have I been such a terrible friend to you?

That you'd go through this much
without telling me?

You always have to be the heroine.

Don't you?

You have to know everything, help everyone

and everyone has to like you.

That's how it should go.

I'm tired.

I'm sorry, but I can't help you with that.

I have enough on my plate.

That's why I didn't tell you.

So what

were you thinking back then?

You thought
I was having an affair with Sung-jun.

Didn't you?

Ask yourself.

Do you trust me?

You can go inside.

I'm a mess, so I couldn't comfort her.

Let's go.

I need some fresh air.

-Right now?
-Don't wait up.

YOUR HUSBAND'S MISTRESS IS ON YOUR TEAM

It's over.

Do I know this person?

No.

I wish you and that woman were dead.

You thought
I was having an affair with Sung-jun.

Didn't you?

This is only for urgent approval. Okay?

Disciplinary action will be taken if
the security team sees anyone share IDs.

I'll keep this under the vase.
It's only for our team to share.

The user of the computer
who sent the message is Na Jung-sun.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Park Sung-jun speaking.

Yes, sir.

Yes.

Pardon?

You know the sales
of living sections are on the rise.

Thus, we're working
on a collaborative project

with a premium interior design brand
for our VIP customers.

We'll invite the hottest interior designer
among the VIPs

and provide them with a class
on trendy interior design.

Each store will be given
the exact target sales figures

and reflect the results

on the year-end
concierge manager evaluation.

That's what the executive director thinks.

The concierge managers' job is
to manage the VIP customers in each store.

If you give them the target sales figures
on specific items,

they will put their foot down on it.

Besides, the VIP team takes care
of the managers.

I'm sure the marketing team
has no authority to evaluate them.

That is why the executive director
gave us the order directly.

Now is not the time for you
to be all lofty at the desk.

Be an aggressive marketer.

Considering the preferences of VIPs--

Okay.

We'll give it some thought
and get back to you soon.

I'm counting on you, Ms. Na.
You're a good communicator.

We're doing all this
for the sake of the company.

Not for our own sake, you know?

I'll try to talk it out.

Turn them down.

They barge in without asking and tell us
what to do with the evaluation.

It means they intend to meddle
in our business.

If we go easy on them about this,
they'll try to boss us around afterwards.

This is directly
from the executive director.

It isn't something
we can turn down right away.

How about we fully accept

the marketing team's opinions
for this coming event?

It's very unlikely we'll persuade them
even if we offer other conditions.

It's the executive director's orders.

If you consider it too easy,
they will get you.

You must go hard if need be.

It's good to express your opinions freely,
but in a polite manner.

I apologize.

He's already got the chairman's consent.

We won't have any means to reverse it
as the chairman has his eyes on it.

My brother made a smart move this time.

So

is there any way to turn
this in our favor?

Ms. Na.

Yes?

This is the report on the product fair.

Are you okay?

Why?

There seems to be something going on
between you and Ms. Lee.

There's nothing wrong
with having arguments at work.

Please review it and tell me
if any changes are necessary.

We're preparing the interior design class
with the marketing team

on the day of the general manager meeting.

You take care of it, Mi-na.
And Yu-ri, please assist her.

Yes, ma'am.

LIST OF CONCIERGE MANAGERS
TEAM MANAGER BAN SEUNG-HWAN

Why are you typing all these one by one?

I was told to send a group text
to all the managers.

So why are you typing them one by one?

Don't tell me

you still don't know how to send
a web text in the company system.

What?

All right.

Here.

-Here it is.
-What?

I didn't know about this.

From here.

Mr. Ma. See me in my office for a second.

Okay.

I'll do it afterwards.

I'll do it if it's urgent.

-You mean, the text?
-Yes.

Do you know how to do it?

Yes.

You're better than him.

Here's the wording. Follow this.

The managers' contact info is
saved in the company's address book.

-Refer to it.
-Okay.

Young-jun's going on a field trip.
Make sure you pack a lunchbox for him.

Mi-na.

Please stop all this
and come back home.

I'll send you the ingredients
and the recipe.

Don't forget to do it.

Shaping a cartoon character is not easy.
Practice beforehand.

Whatever. I'm not doing it.

If you're concerned, do it yourself.

You think this is a joke?

He's our son.

I've always done it,
so it's your turn this time.

Goodness, I really don't know
what's on her mind.

You've lost so much weight.

Doesn't Jung-sun give you proper meals?

She does. I'm just busy with work.

You haven't changed a bit though.

You're still good-looking.

No news about a baby yet?

No.

I see.

You're better off without any children.

It only costs you money and trouble.

Look at me.
My child doesn't even treat me like…

How have you been?

Okay.

Good times and bad times.

Just going along.

I hear you've been living in Daejeon
after getting married again.

He's such a nuisance.

I thought
I'd finally settle down somewhere.

He eventually had to start a business.

Speaking of which,
I have something to tell you about that.

Is there any way I can check
the entry log for the entrance door?

That's related to security.

You have no access to it
except for reasonable cases.

Is there any issue?

No.

Okay. Thanks.

Look who this is.

Ms. Na!

What?

Why would the marketing team
arrange the concierge manager meeting?

We're holding a collaborative event.

The marketing team and the VIP team?

The vice president
wouldn't let that happen.

What is it about? Give me more details.

I can tell something is going on.

I have a hunch

-that it isn't something good.
-You see.

Ji-young.

Do you think I'm a bit annoying?

Yes, of course.

Hey, you have it all.

You have a competent husband.
Your family is rich.

You're competent yourself
when you work just for fun.

You're generous towards others
because you're free of trouble.

And so are others towards you.

If your life was tough,
that wouldn't be possible.

You get to live an elegant life
as the whole world is nice to you.

No wonder you're annoying.

I didn't know I had everything.

Don't say that to others.

Being humble is even more annoying.

Why?

Someone tells you so?

That's jealousy.

I envy you.

I wish people were jealous of me.

Hello.

Good.

We were talking
about the interior brand exhibition.

Is Ms. Song in charge of it?

Yes.

That's nice.

Good day.

Why do you look so gloomy?

The ID is shared only within the team.

It must be someone on our team.

The more I think, the less it makes sense.

Who would send that text message?

Is that important?

Yes, it's important.

If that person says something bad,

I'll get in trouble in the office.

That would have happened already
if it were meant to.

You have three possible scenarios.

It's a prank, a tip-off, or a threat.

If it's one of the first two,
there won't be any trouble.

Given that the person
has not done anything yet,

I don't expect it to be a threat.

If it is,
that person will come clean anyway

to claim something.

In short,

finding out who the sender is
is not important at all.

If you have the luxury of snooping around,

use it for more productive activities.

I'm curious...

as to whether the sender
knows something else.

He says it isn't someone I know.

If you don't have the balls, just quit.

If you're going to keep wondering
what's outside the door

and guessing whether it's a rat
or an elephant,

just quit.

Just quit and open the door.

Whether it's a rat or an elephant,

if you see it with your own eyes,
you won't mistake a rat for a tiger,

obsessed with all the delusions you have.

If you don't want to open the door,

just feign ignorance about it.

Whatever choice you make,

you have to choose one of them

in order to live.

Just quit and open the door.

If you don't want to open the door,

just feign ignorance about it.

What are you doing?

I can't open the door.

It's nothing. Never mind.

What's this for?

It's an inner door.

You see a second door near the front door.

That's what this is.

It blocks air from coming in
and even the odor from the shoe shelves.

I thought every door was the same.
I didn't know there were so many types.

The designs are so sophisticated
these days.

These also make your house look bigger.

Mr. Ma.

Help me set these up.

Okay.

I'm scared already.

Why?

Not only Mr. Park
but there are also 20 other Kangs.

You like to talk about people
behind their backs.

Why are you so freaked out?
I'm not a ghost.

-No. Mr. Park is looking for me.
-Mr. Park?

He isn't.

He's going to.

He's new. It's fun teasing him.

Why are you alone?

They'll be here soon.

There they are.

YOUNGRIM INDUSTRY INC.

So we will invite a designer
from each branch.

There will be
interior design classes for VIPs.

That's why we prepared
this orientation for you today,

to provide you
with sales information beforehand.

So

are you telling us to sell items?

That's what a department store is for.

You'll get incentives according
to your performance, so it's a win.

Selling items.

That's right.

Our job is selling items.

Ms. Oh comforted a customer
who went through a breakup

by playing card games after work
and sold a 30 million won watch.

Ms. Ha had a customer

at the lounge and kept her company
every day.

That's how she sold
an 80 million won diamond set.

However,

whatever the situation was,
the items didn't come first.

We ask them, "Do you need anything else?"

We do not ask them, "Don't you need this?"

VIPs don't buy items
because they need them.

They just buy them because they want them.

If they're not personally asking
for something,

selling them a certain item is not
how we do business with VIPs.

These small offers might

lead them to a misconception
that they're merely buyers.

Since you haven't considered
their characteristics

this way of simply allocating
the sales job

is like an armchair theory.

An armchair theory?

The company's policy

has been decided
after proper research and analysis.

Among us here,

is there anyone who wants to talk
about this issue with the company?

So what is it that you want?

Are you going
against the company's decision?

Yes!

What?

We can't follow one-sided orders
that won't work on site,

especially if that order
will sabotage what we're doing.

So are you going on strike?

Aren't you all contract workers?

We might just terminate your contracts.

Sir.

I think you misunderstood the situation.

A contract is a bilateral agreement.

If the agreement is not made
it can be terminated.

The company is not the only one
that can make the decision.

If that's what you want,

the company may request
for the contract termination.

However, you'll have to hire

the concierge managers again
for all branches.

We'll include your opinions

about this issue

and review the policy.

So, for now,

the interior designer Jung Se-young

will give a lecture.

I was so nervous!

Good job.

Mr. Jung could've flipped out.

I was really nervous.

I risked my job and spoke out
because I trust you.

For now, we should

pretend that we agree
with the marketing team.

Why don't we let the managers
go against the idea instead?

There will be plenty of resistance
on site.

If the managers get together
and show their objection,

the marketing team will find it hard
to proceed.

If we guarantee their jobs,
they will act as a group.

If that happens,
we can take the lead again.

I can quit and work somewhere else.

The other concierge managers
could have lost their livelihoods.

Don't worry.

Mr. Jung doesn't want this
to be a failure.

He'll be busy trying to cover it up.

The other plan we'll be proposing.
He won't be able to turn it down.

Okay.

The way I see it,
you're the bravest person here.

Ms. Kang? Ms. Lee is looking for you.

I have to go.

Can we talk?

As I told you during the lecture,
this is a model house

of the glamorous classic,
which is one of the trends for this year.

There are wainscoting installations
on the walls.

The kitchen looks elegant
with white and gold colors.

Please take a look around.

Have you heard?

About what?

The vice president's wife
came to the Cheongdam branch recently.

Why? What happened?

I heard

-that she broke the screen there.
-Seriously?

With this basic T-shirt,

you look more stylish.

How much is this?

It's 1.2 million won.

JAW-DROPPING

Wait.

So his wife knows

about it?

Hey.

I think something interesting
is about to happen.

Thank you for your hard work.

Do you have some time?

Where's Ms. Song?

She has the materials
for the interior design here.

Right, that's…

You want to move to the marketing team.

I heard.

If you join our team,

it'll be very beneficial for us.

Thank you.

But…

how about we decide when to move now?

Pardon?

Instead of moving right away,

I think there's something

you can do for us
while you're still in the VIP team.

What would that be?

We will figure that out later on.

You just need to understand

what's going on in the VIP team
thoroughly.

That information
will be your responsibility.

Don't take it too seriously.

What's wrong?

Do you feel like you're betraying them?

Don't.

Just take it easy.

I wouldn't tell you to do something
against the law.

I thought we'd make a good team.

Do you need some time to think about it?

No.

I'll do my best.

Good.

I knew you were wise.

I was right after all.

Take care of the urgent debt with this.

You can take your time paying me back.

They have loans with low interest
for staff members.

You probably didn't know
as you have no experience.

You'll be able to find a place
for now with the loan.

Don't pay off your mother's debts
with your money for a while.

It's not too late to do so
when things get worse.

You should find a way
to make a living for yourself.

What you said was right.

I was suspicious

you two were having an affair at first.

Sung-jun had an affair.

It still sounds so unreal
to say it.

As you see,
I'm as much of a mess as you are.

If that helps.

I don't know if this is about me
having to be the heroine.

I'm worried about you even now.

That's why I'm poking my nose
into your problem.

Please take it.

Let's just say it's for my own sake.

Why are you...

telling me this?

The woman he was seeing
could be me.

Is it?

I feel like I would lose my mind
if I never told anyone.

I feel like I'm going crazy
keeping it to myself.

That's why I'm telling you.

Even if it's you, I have no choice.

I hope it isn't you.

I'm telling you this because it's you.

Made it.

How about we at least say hi
since we know each other?

Hello.

It's nice.

At least we're on speaking terms.

Have you had dinner?

No.

How about dinner with me?

I'm a little busy.

I'll buy you dinner.

I'm starving
and I don't want to eat alone.

It's dinner
for your pitiful fellow worker.

I suffer from indigestion when I have
dinner with someone uncomfortable.

So that would be difficult.

I'll eat alone.

What is he up to?

Thank you.

You just saved a person's life.

-Did you tell Jung-sun?
-No.

Thank you.

I'm ashamed to face you.

Next time we meet…

Never mind.

It's better that I stay away from you.

I won't bother you
thinking no news is good news.

Ms. Gye.

Call Jung-sun some time
and tell her you're doing okay.

She will

still be thinking of you no matter what.

I will.

Goodbye.

You're such a good man.

She doesn't have the perfect mom,

but she's blessed with you.

Ms. Gye!

MY LOVE

Are you off work?

What?

What are you saying?

Okay.

Ms. Na is off today for personal reasons.

If any of her work needs
to be done urgently,

-do it on her behalf, Ms. Lee.
-Okay.

I accepted it

because it was Jung-sun.

Sung-jun.

Come to me.

I'll be good to you.

Let's be honest. I'm like
a winning lottery ticket.

Besides,

I'll have you as my last man.

Stop joking now. Let's go back to work.

I'm not joking though.

Sung-jun?

Since when have you two been dating?

I wanted to tell you sooner.

He went to the same college as you.

I didn't want to cause him trouble.

I saved it until things became certain.

Are you upset that I'm telling you now?

Congratulations.

I'm truly happy for you.

It made sense

because Jung-sun

a the single-hearted person

like you mentioned.

And I thought...

you were the same.

You have to be

that kind of person.

-Hyun-a.
-Stop it now

before it gets out of control.

Why did I hide?

I'd better get it tomorrow.

NA JUNG-SUN

CALLING

Where are you?

You know where. I'm home.

-Is Sung-jun home too?
-He's still at work.

I see.

Sorry.
I'm with my mother-in-law right now.

Okay, bye.

Sung-jun had an affair.

Chairman Daniel will visit Korea today.

-Sir!
-Are you okay, sir?

Will it be okay if I have what I want?

It'd be better than the other way around.

Tell me it's all right.

I need to know.

I need to know about the woman
you had an affair with.
