I'm calling to tell you that you've passed the document screening for the IR Day.

I see.

I'll email you with instructions on the following procedures.

What instructions?

You'll be giving a presentation.

By the way, can I ask you something?

Yes, of course.

Have the accepted applicants been finalized?

Yes.

Is Gong Ji-hoon one of them?

I'm sorry? You mean CEO Gong?

I'm just curious.

My apologies. I can't give you someone else's information.

Hey, come on. Can't you just tell me?

Nope. I'm sorry.

Oh, I get it. It's because you're in the workplace right now.

In that case, instead of answering me,

either nod or shake your head.

Sorry. Can't do that.

So, he did get accepted.

The list says "Gong Ji-hoon."

I'll see you again.

What the heck?

(CONSTAR Director, Kim Jae-hee)

Come in.

Good morning, Director Kim.

I just emailed all the applicants who passed the first screening.

Good job, Woo-ri.

I'm already nervous even though we only did the document screening so far.

The first presentation evaluation will take place one week later.

How long are the presentations supposed to be?

Each presentation will be 10 minutes long, followed by a 10-minute Q&A session.

We'll be receiving the presentation material on that day

because there's only one week for the CEOs to prepare for their presentations.

Good idea.

Let's work hard on the next step, too, then.

Yes, ma'am.

I'm in front of CONSTAR right now. Let's grab lunch together.

Okay. I'll be right there.

You've improved in the art of flattery.

I heard the work in CONSTAR is as demanding as in headquarters.

How do you find it?

It's quite hectic, but I'm enjoying it.

I remember when we joined the Strategic Planning Team together

and tried to promote the company reputation. It was tough, wasn't it?

Yeah, it really was.

- I made it thanks to you, Mr. Kang. - I hardly helped you with anything.

You can call me like the old times when we're on our own.

- It's more comfortable for me that way. - Should I?

Ugh, hey.

I'll be evaluating the participating companies for the upcoming IR Day.

It kind of scares me.

Why? You're beyond competent for that.

Whatever decision I make,

it could have a significant impact on a company.

So, I'm feeling a lot of responsibility.

Don't fret too much.

I actually know quite a few of the CEOs who applied.

You know CEO Kim Chang-jin of Jaewon Group, right?

Yes, I remember him.

Apparently, his one and only son was born and grew up in the US.

His name is Rick Kim.

I was told that he joined our project as Rick Kim Industries.

I heard he passed the first screening today.

Yes, that's right. I think I saw that name.

Give him a good evaluation, will you?

I'm sorry?

You see, CEO Kim Chang-jin helped me out a lot.

I'm counting on you, Jae-hee.

- Hey, but that's... - I know.

It's a lot of pressure on you.

But please do this for me.

Hey, isn't the IR Day so annoying?

I feel you. Why is she making such a big fuss about it?

- She hardly does any work. - That's what I'm saying!

I can't stand her sitting in the position as the youngest director ever.

Hey, I heard she got that title through connections.

Seriously? Through whom?

Mr. Kang, the executive director.

They've always been so close.

That's crazy.

I thought Kim Jae-hee was just a quiet girl. Who knew she was such a fox?

Exactly.

Hello.

Did you just get off work?

Yeah.

Are you here to see the painting?

Yes.

You seem down.

Did something happen?

It's nothing.

Can you hold this for me?

Have a seat.

Let's watch the painting over some drinks.

Cheers.

By the way,

does Adiro only draw graffiti?

Yes.

Why do you like Adiro's art?

Adiro's art

always brings me comfort.

It's like it's saying to me,

"You're doing great. It's not your fault." Something like that.

That's why I feel at ease when I watch Adiro's art.

How should I put this?

It feels like this artwork was made just for me.

Silly, huh?

No.

If I was that artist, I would feel so good about myself.

The fact that my art can comfort someone is an incredible thing.

What artist wouldn't like that?

Maybe you're right.

Adiro's so blessed.

What?

I mean, to have a passionate fan like you.

You even bought this house because of Adiro's painting.

I bet no other fan loves Adiro like you do.

The house...

Feel free to come whenever you're having a tough time.

Why does that

sound like you wish I'd have a hard time every day?

That's not what I meant...

I was kidding.

Thanks.

(Jae-gwang)

Okay.

I'm CEO Gong Ji-hoon of Artrium.

(Missed call)

We just arrived for the presentation.

I'll call you when I'm done.

Okay.

Hello, Artist Lee.

Hey, CEO Oh.

Are you presenting today?

Yes. What about you...?

I'm honored to say that I've been invited as an evaluator.

Please go easy on me.

The more successful you are, the better it is for me, too.

I hope your business thrives. That way, you can help me sell a lot of artworks.

If I win the investment, you'll be the first one

I'll make an exclusive contract with.

You don't have to go to such great lengths.

Well, then. I'll go inside first.

Here you go.

CEO Oh, can you please sign the guestbook?

Okay.

Here you go.

You can hand the presentation materials to me.

Why?

It's your turn to present, CEO Oh.

Alright.

Imagine that you can be the first one to purchase

the new artwork of a rising young artist.

I'm CEO Oh Ha-min of Blueup.

Blueup is a funding platform that allows you to buy

the new artwork of a young artist before it's completed.

The artist and Blueup will set the predicted value of the work

and will collect funds from numerous investors.

Later, when the artist completes the artwork,

Blueup will sell it

through a dealer or an auction.

When the artwork is sold and profit is realized,

Blueup will deduct agency fees from the profit

and pay the rest to the artist and investor.

Of course, the payment is commensurate with the ratio of investment.

From funding to sales,

we provide a reliable art technology

that utilizes block chain technology

to guarantee security and safety in all transactions.

(Evaluators Kim Hyun-soo, Choi Seok-woo)

That must mean it's critical to get promising artists.

Yes, that's right. That's exactly why we drew up a list of artists

during our preparations for this business

by receiving the advice from famous artists and critics.

What's the core value of this business?

There are many gifted people in this world.

But that doesn't guarantee fame.

My business idea

allows these unrecognized talents

to gain the public's attention and become famous.

By doing so, it creates added value.

(CEO Oh Ha-min)

(2021 IR Day, First Presentation)

It's almost time.

(CEO Gong Ji-hoon)

I'm done.

Where's CEO Gong?

Don't tell me he didn't arrive yet.

("My Rocket Ship")

(Post-credits scene)

Thank you.
