THE SECRET OF THE JEWELRY BOX

Mr. Jang,

-doesn't it feel like something's missing? -Pardon?

I mean, I still feel kind of empty.

You had Chinese food 32 minutes ago

and said, "My stomach is going to explode."

Yes, I did.

But I still don't feel full.

Then should I find a restaurant on our way back?

No, I'm not that hungry.

Maybe something lighter.

Are you talking about something like a meal box?

Oh, that's right.

I had that option. The meal box.

But since it's the weekend,

-I'm sure the dietitian is-- -Hey, it's me.

Mommy?

Mom... Mommy?

-Hello? -Where did she go without her son?

Oh, gosh.

THREE MEALS JERK

What?

Hello?

Who was that?

That... That was me.

I thought you were my mom.

Anyway, what is it?

I haven't eaten for a while.

I'll send you the address. Come and cook.

What?

But it's the weekend.

You didn't make my meals while I was on my business trip.

Are you looking for a free ride here?

No, it's not like that.

Don't be late.

I'll be arriving in two hours.

If you don't come, I'll report you for neglect of duty.

Dong-gu, where did Mom go?

Hey, you can't cause any trouble in there.

Just be quiet and stay close to me.

-Okay? -Okay.

Let's go.

There. Come on.

Does he sleep on the couch?

He has a simple life for an heir.

What is he, a pitiful prince?

None of these rooms are his bedroom.

I need pepper.

Pepper.

What?

No way.

He doesn't have it. My gosh.

What's the point of living in this nice house?

I mean, what kind of heir doesn't have anyone to cook for him?

Hey.

Dong-gu.

Shoot.

Hey!

Didn't I tell you to sit still?

Gosh, what if the thing inside is broken too?

What do I do?

Should I open it and see?

A ring?

A necklace?

No, forget it.

I'm sure it's meant for someone else.

Shush.

Ms. Lee.

Ms. Lee.

Mission complete.

I have somewhere to be. Enjoy.

What is she, the Snail Lady from the folktale?

I thought she said she threw it away.

What if he wants me to pay for it?

If he asks about it, I'll just play innocent.

It definitely looked expensive.

It's all because of that brat.

THE BEST PUPIL IN CHEONGDAM-DONG

HOW TO MAKE GRILLED MARINATED BEEF SLICES AT HOME

What is this?

When you cut onions,

if you put a piece of bread in your mouth,

you can cut them without tears.

Remember that.

That's amazing.

I'm going to work hard to learn and make delicious food for someone.

Oh, my. For whom?

-Your boyfriend? -That's a secret.

And he said he wasn't dating her.

I could tell it had a diamond in it.

A huge diamond.

Darn it.

Ta-da! I've finished making my grilled marinated beef slices.

Maybe someone in the audience

could give it a taste on behalf of the viewers.

Me!

I'd like to try it.

Sure. Please have a taste.

Here you go.

Goodness, it's too salty.

It's too salty?

Gosh, I'm a terrible cook myself,

but even I could do better than that.

You're putting a lot of effort into his meal today.

You and Mr. Cha went out to eat

just the two of you the other day.

Don't tell me...

It feels like there is an ulterior motive behind this.

That's nonsense.

Today's food is just about my conscience.

What do you think?

Well...

Mr. Cha would probably say...

Do you think I'm a child?

No, that's not--

Then what? What is this for?

You want to be my girlfriend or something?

What?

Wait, what are you talking about all of a sudden?

That's what it looks like.

You wouldn't make this kind of meal box for just anyone.

Right?

You're right.

This meal box does have a certain meaning.

What?

But it doesn't mean that.

I mean--

Do not make anything that has eyes, nose, lips,

or ears from now on.

Like I said before,

don't waste your time on stuff like this.

Try to improve the cafeteria food instead.

Okay.

-Why did you lie to me? -I'm sorry?

About my coat.

I... I thought you had thrown it away.

Oh, it just looked too expensive to throw away.

That's all? Because it looked expensive?

Yes.

Is there anything else you want to say?

I'm sorry.

Just know that you wouldn't still be working here if it weren't for me.

-Pardon? -Do you think

the executives dropped in at the cafeteria for no reason?

If you hadn't served a good dish,

you would've lost your job.

I had no idea.

AM I BEING FIRED?

I'M DOOMED

SHOULD I TELL HIM THE TRUTH?

IT LOOKED EXPENSIVE

AM I GOING TO JAIL?

I'm really sorry.

I mean, thank you.

Did you do something to apologize for?

Gosh, no.

I'm just saying that I'll work hard

to make better meals for you.

I'll do my very best.

You can go.

DIRECTOR CHA JIN-WOOK

Jeez.

She has a cute side which is so out of character for her.

Please eat, Father.

You made...

all of this yourself, Hye-ri?

Yes.

I've started hosting a cooking show recently.

I'm just learning little by little.

Hye-ri, you're such a wonderful girl in every single way.

You would make the perfect daughter-in-law.

How is it, Father?

Do you have to ask?

It tastes great, of course. You made it.

I'm glad.

By the way, I'm worried about Jin-wook.

Why?

He's very particular about food.

I'm not sure if the meal boxes made by

the company dietitian are enough for him.

That's what he eats every day?

You didn't know? Oh, boy.

I'm glad you're here.

You're eating meal boxes made by the company dietitian?

What is this about?

Well, it's just what it sounds like.

I'm doing it for health reasons.

You fool. You should get married instead.

You don't marry someone just to have them cook for you.

It's already late as it is.

I want to hold a strapping grandson in my arms as soon as possible.

Gosh, Father.

Goodness.

You should quit your job.

Really? Are we getting married?

You'd make a great actress.

Jin-wook.

I'm getting scared of you now.

Me?

The things that you do

aren't cute anymore.

Don't just show up here

without telling me first.

And don't make me look bad

like you did at the cafeteria before.

Jeez.

My gosh.

Is there something going on with you and that girl?

Don't be ridiculous.

Jin-wook, you can't fool me.

I've got really good instincts.

I can tell. Something is going on between you two, right?

Look, Hye-ri.

Jin-wook. I can't play hard to get.

Correction. I don't do that.

I'm never going to stop until you're mine,

so don't tell me what to do.

I'm going to do what I want to do.

Anyone could tell that you belong to me. You know why?

Because I say so.

See you.

Jeez.

When will she grow up?

She sounds crazy from time to time.

DIAMOND NECKLACE

Excuse me.

-I'm sorry. -What are you sorry for?

Just for some things, I guess.

Do you still go in and out of Jin-wook's office every day

with the meal boxes?

It's my job to go in and out of his office with the meal boxes.

-That's all. -Fine.

I'll believe you.

Never do anything more than getting him three meals a day.

Dietitian...

DIETITIAN LEE YU-MI

Lee Yu-mi.

Excuse me, Ms. Ju Hye-ri. May I have your autograph?

-Of course. -Me too.

-What's your name? -It's Nam Jun-yeong.

All right.

You're right.

This meal box does have a certain meaning.

But it doesn't mean that.

No way.

Come on, she wouldn't have.

Darn it.

No, she wouldn't have!

Hello?

But your dinner is almost ready now.

What's the matter?

Okay.

Oh, my gosh!

Ms. Lee, are you okay?

Yes, I'm okay.

Shoot.

Why did it have to break at a time like this?

This is not a good sign.

Here are the marketing plans

for the spring-summer 2018 Cool Bodies Edition.

Since our target is men in their 20s and 30s--

No, she wouldn't have seen it.

LASHEVAN

We could get a popular sports club

or sports stars

-to promote our... -Forget it. What's the big deal?

Unbelievable. What a pervert.

Why does he have this?

Yuck.

He kept it all these years?

No! It can't be.

It can't be.

I'll come up with new plans.

What? Why did you stop?

He hasn't skipped a meal for a while.

What happened to him today?

THREE MEALS JERK

Huh?

YOU HUMILIATED ME!

Until yesterday,

there were three dots at the end of that sentence.

What's with these ominous exclamation marks?

Did he... find out about it?

Why don't you take it to him yourself?

I just have a lot of things to do today.

Please tell Mr. Cha that I prepared the meal with extra care today.

I will. All right then.

You're not wearing a polka-dotted suit today.

You looked sexy in it.

I wonder if you wear matching underwear too.

I'm curious.

I'd like to see it.

-What's your number? -010...

I told you I didn't want to eat.

That's what I told the dietitian, but she prepared it anyway.

"Mistake."

Number one, an error or a fault.

Number two, to misunderstand or to be wrong.

Is there a problem?

I can't believe this woman.

Darn it.

-Darn it! -What... What's wrong?

I told you I didn't want to eat.

So why the heck did you bring it?

What's that, a brick wall suit? Jeez!

Mr. Cha got angry as soon as he opened it.

What on earth did you write on that note?

I'm sorry.

"Steak."

I meant the steak was my mistake.

It was just a mistake?

So I shouldn't get the wrong idea?

That little...

A mistake?

All right, fine.

You think you've got something on me.

All right. So what?

This is just a stupid bra pad...

It's just a...

Darn it, why did I keep this thing?

Why on earth did I do that?

Jeez, what the heck?

Is that an eye?

What is this?

-Don't know what to eat for dinner? -That's your mom.

Don't know how to cook?

Have you lost your appetite?

Then check out what we've prepared for you.

It's Korea's all-time favorite dish, marinated crab!

Excellent customer satisfaction...

Dong-gu's asleep.

Where's my mom?

Oh, she went out to meet someone.

It tastes fantastic!

By the way, have you seen Dong-gu's stuffed bunny?

I can't find it anywhere.

Isn't that his favorite?

I'll look for it tomorrow.

-Here, I'll take him. -Okay.

Hang on.

Hello?

Where are you right now?

I'm at home.

Come meet me for a second.

I have something to say.

-Now? -Right this second!

I can't really go out right now.

Can it wait until tomorrow?

You can't come out?

Fine. I'll go to you then.

What?

But you don't know where I live--

What is it? Who was that?

The Grim Reaper who's coming to get me.

BEER AND BOOK

-How did you know where I lived? -Your resume.

I looked it up

after seeing you at the company for the first time,

hoping that I was mistaken.

That's personal information.

So this is where you live.

By the way, what is it that you wanted to say?

This is yours, isn't it?

Did I leave it at your place?

That belongs to my little brother... No.

It belongs to my dog.

I guess I left it there.

This was in my study.

Did you go in there?

-It's not what you think-- -Don't make excuses.

I want a clear answer.

What did you see in there?

I'm sorry.

It's a jewelry box.

This looked the most similar to yours.

I know that yours costs way more than this, of course.

But I hope you'll take this and forgive me--

You opened it, didn't you?

You opened it and saw what's inside, didn't you?

Well, I could roughly tell its size.

To walk around with that thing hanging out,

it'd put a strain on your neck.

What? "Hanging out"?

Well, the bigger it is, the better.

"The bigger it is"?

What...

Are you hearing yourself right now?

Gosh, you're one scary woman.

Was it fun?

-Toying with me while playing innocent? -I didn't toy with you.

I wasn't happy either. I had a hard time.

Are you kidding me right now?

I did accidentally touch something that I shouldn't have touched,

but you're the one who called me to your place.

It was the weekend too. If you hadn't called me, I wouldn't have--

That's enough!

What? Did you think I'd be embarrassed

just because you saw that stupid thing?

Then you're wrong! It's just a...

-It's just-- -Stop, will you?

Who are you? Move.

-No. -Hyeon-tae.

I thought you went home.

Who is this punk?

What does it look like?

Yu-mi.

-Is that true? -No...

Are you the director of her company?

I don't know what this is about, but please talk about it at work.

You should go now.

-Let's go. -What?

Darn it.

All right. Relax.

Relax.

-Let's go. -What?

My gosh.

Jeez.

What is her deal?

BEER AND BOOK

I found it.

Gee, I forgot to take it.

You came back for a game console?

Yeah.

Why did you do that earlier?

Listen.

Wasn't I super cool earlier? I was like a guy from a drama.

I thought you'd gone crazy.

You looked like you were in trouble.

If that guy bothers you again, just tell him you have a boyfriend.

I'll play your boyfriend.

Forget it. It's not like that.

Gosh, I'm tired. I should go home and sleep.

-I'll see you later then. -Okay, bye.

Right.

There's no reason why she has to have been

single since birth.

He said she was just his teacher's daughter.

He told me not to get the wrong idea.

Don't make excuses. I want a clear answer.

What did you see in there?

Gosh, what's wrong with me?

I'm not in any kind of relationship with him.

I hope he and Ju Hye-ri

enjoy three good meals a day...

and have a nice life together.

Cheers.

Gosh, it's bitter.

I'm telling you,

they've actually been dating since their drama ended.

Jin-wook, I've had a few drinks with my colleagues.

Can you come pick me up?

Call a chauffeur service.

FROM: MY JIN-WOOK

Seriously?

He's still playing hard to get.

-Hye-ri, what did you say? -Gosh.

Our good writer and producer. Cheers to you.

-Cheers. -Cheers.

Gosh, this feels great.

Oh, have you found a person to interview next week?

No, it's giving me a headache.

All the CEOs are so busy.

-CEOs? -Yeah.

It's hard to find someone who's handsome, capable, and good with words too.

Actually, I can help you with that.

Really?

Do you know someone?

I do.

He's someone I'm very close with.

BEER AND BOOK

Good night, Yu-mi.

You're the first person who asked

if I was all right.

You're the first who's cried because I asked if you were okay.

And it's the first time that I thought a woman looked pretty...

when she was crying.

DIRECTOR CHA JIN-WOOK

Come in.

I made you salmon steak for breakfast today.

Here. Take it.

Oh, right.

I brought this for you.

You'd better...

take this back right now.

Also,

don't talk to me about this ever again.

Okay?

Okay, I won't.

You can let go of my hand now.

I'll get going then.

Who's the guy...

from yesterday?

Is he your boyfriend?

If that guy bothers you again, just tell him you have a boyfriend.

Am I obligated to answer personal questions?

You don't live together with him, do you?

That's also a personal question, so I don't need to answer it, right?

I guess you don't.

By the way, I didn't know you had such bad taste in men.

He seemed like a wily fox to me.

Hyeon-tae is one of the most good-looking guys in our neighborhood.

He also has a good heart.

He's not superficial like someone I know. He can't be compared.

"Someone"?

"Superficial"?

I'm busy, so I should get going.

She...

She was talking about me, wasn't she?

Who's superficial? She's unbelievable!

Darn it, why is her food getting cuter and cuter?

How dare he judge my best friend by his looks?

He should just worry about his girlfriend instead.

What are you grumbling about?

Aren't you here to work?

We have a pile of work to do.

Why does it take you so long to deliver his meals?

It's not like you're dating him.

An office romance is thrilling indeed.

-It's hot too. -Mr. Cha is mine.

I'm sorry.

What's that?

Oh, this?

I learned this from Ju Hye-ri's new show, The Best Pupil in Cheongdam-dong.

Do you want to try?

It really stops onion tears.

No, I'm good.

Stop chitchatting already!

You're going to spit on the food! What's wrong with you?

I'm sorry.

Your suits are getting louder every day.

I'll take that as a compliment.

-What's that book? -Oh, this?

I want to read it while I wait.

Ms. Good Morning...

Someone recommended it to me.

TRAVELOGUE BY JUNG HYEON-TAE

Are you the director of her company?

You should go now.

Hyeon-tae is one of the most good-looking guys in our neighborhood.

So he's just a writer.

Do you know him?

I made a dinner reservation for you

after your meeting with Royal Department Store.

-It's on the VIP floor-- -Cancel it.

Pardon?

I'll return to the office right after the meeting.

I'm going to have the meal box for dinner.

Can I have my book back--

Darn it.

Mr. Cha.

Gosh, I thought he wasn't going to have dinner here today.

TOM YUM SOUP

NASI GORENG

Maybe dinner is just an excuse and not what he really wants.

Ms. Lee, we're heading out first as usual.

Good work today, guys.

We almost got a complaint because

we ran out of cucumber kimchi today.

Will you get your act together already?

I'm so sick of this.

Is everything okay with Ms. Wang?

I guess her disk is herniated again.

Her disk?

Because she works standing up.

She's refusing surgery saying that she has to work.

She's supporting her family, so she can't quit her job either.

Please try to understand.

We should go now.

-See you tomorrow. -Goodbye.

Bye, guys.

Oh, his dinner.

It's Korean-style nasi goreng.

I tried to use as little spice as possible to suit your taste.

Thank you. You can go.

Okay.

JUNG HYEON-TAE

Do you want to go to Han River Park later with Dong-gu?

I'm in. I'll get off work soon--

THREE MEALS JERK

Why is there so little food today?

Make another meal. Right now.

Right... Right now?

What do I do? There aren't enough ingredients.

These are rice balls made with minced meat.

Your request was unexpected, so I used the ingredients--

Fine. You can go.

I can do this.

Hey.

You said you'd get off work soon. What's taking you so long?

The Three Meals Jerk is driving me crazy.

He's asked for more food so many times...

I just made him a second dinner.

Can you believe that?

-Is he even human? -Jeez.

Anyway...

serving the glutton made me run late.

We should cancel the picnic in Han River Park.

Should I go pick you up then?

Really?

You'll pick me up?

Hey, let me call you back.

Is someone coming to pick you up?

Well, not exactly...

What brings you down here?

-I'm hungry. -What?

I'm thinking...

instant noodles.

I told you I can't trust your food.

Let's go to work.

I've never been offended by someone's invitation to a meal before.

What? Why would you go out to eat with him?

Just 10 times. No more, no less.

What do you know about office life? This is also a part of my work.

You got the wrong idea too.

He's not my boyfriend. He's just a friend.

-Pardon? -You can stop making my meals.

Is this Mr. Jung Hyeon-tae?

I don't want you to be sick.
