All language subtitles for I Need Romance 3 Ep09

I need romance.

I need romance.

EPISODE 9

But it seems like

he still likes Se-ryeong.

He used me

to cut her off.

He apologized to me.

But I...

It didn't bother me at all.

Instead, my heart ached.

I...

I must like him a lot more

than I thought I do.

POISONOUS SNAKE

Hey, Joo-yeon.
I forgot to tell you earlier.

There's a meeting early tomorrow morning.

We'll analyze the performance
of the New Brand Team,

- so organize an online business plan...
-Hey.

She just fell asleep.

I'm sorry,

but this is urgent.

I sent her an email.

She needs to prepare the documents
before the meeting tomorrow.

Could you wake her up earlier than usual?

She wakes up at 5:30 a.m.
How much earlier can she wake up?

I'm not sure what happened today,

but she cried a lot at home
after seeing you.

You're calling her for work
instead of being worried?

I don't know how important
or urgent this is,

but I can't wake up someone
who just fell asleep while crying.

Just consider it
as if her phone was turned off.

Oh no!

Hey, Sweet Potato!

Did you talk to him yesterday?

Why did you turn my phone off?
Who told you to take my calls?

Do you know how important this is?
I'm in trouble!

Do you have to leave right away?

I'll kill you when I get off work tonight.

How can you let me check the email now?

I don't have time to wash my hair.

Oh no, what do I do? I'm so doomed.

And this...

Eat this and dry your hair.
I'll drive you. It's cold.

It's slippery outside.
Why is she running again?

-Let's go.
-I told you not to run.

It's dangerous with heels on.

Hey, enough talking and just go.

Eat this.

There's no time to eat.
That's all you talk about.

Did you eat? Eat before you go!
Eat, eat, eat, eat!

-Hey!
-Oh my!

Take back what you said.
I'm really offended.

I packed you lunch at this hour,
I didn't even have time

to put socks on and I'm driving for you.
And this is how you treat me?

Okay, I'll eat.

We're here. Get off.

You don't even say thank you?

She might trip like that.

Seriously?

I have to deliver to her again?

Right.

She left this in the car.
Please give it to her.

The lunchbox is for one,
so don't try to steal any.

What does she see in him?

How he never talks?

I should've left a minute ago.

I'm blushing. Gosh.

I guess you ran into him.

What's this?

ONLINE BUSINESS PLAN

Did you...

make this?

I stayed up overnight,
thanks to your roommate.

Why did you make this?

I know you're in a tough spot right now.

Goodness. Why all this trouble...

Get up.

What?

Can we walk without you dragging me?

Where are we going? Gosh.

Let's eat.
You didn't have breakfast, right?

But you never eat breakfast.

Your roommate was worried sick about you.

That you might skip a meal.

He's not.

I heard...

you cried yourself to sleep.

Did I...

hurt your feelings last night?

I only saw you crying twice
since you started work.

I guess you cry more often than I thought.

You didn't let me cry.
Who doesn't have tears?

I cried because I was mad.

I was upset that I was used
in someone else's love story.

Don't think of it that way.

You're the only person
I can truly show my feelings to.

You're the most comfortable person
to me right now.

You don't get overly emotional.

I feel like I can depend on you.

He says he's comfortable around me,
and I don't get overly emotional.

It doesn't feel like a compliment anymore.

After I realized my feelings,

our occasional touches
also feel different.

Now,

will every moment with him
feel anew like that?

How can I stand this awkwardness?

-Do you have something to say?
-What?

Why do you keep looking at me?

You're sitting in front of me.
What am I supposed to look at?

Okay, then keep looking at me.

It's nice to eat while meeting your eyes.

I didn't want him to know how I felt.

It's better not to begin

if I'll end up getting dumped.

Joo-yeon likes Tae-yoon.

Right?

She might not know herself,
but I've felt it.

It only takes an instant to fall in love
with your colleagues.

That goes for Tae-yoon too.

Are you just going to sit and watch?

Allen, don't you like Joo-yeon?

Then stop her.

I don't want to.

Are you saying you're all right
with Joo-yeon dating Tae-yoon?

If that's how she feels,
then I'll let her be.

If Tae-yoon is a good guy, that is.

I can't allow any other women
with Tae-yoon.

And if that's Joo-yeon, even more so.

Think carefully.

You may be confusing
jealousy and possessiveness

with love.

Isn't it natural to want what you like?

Clothes, bags, and shoes.

If I like something,
I put it in my dressing room

before anyone else snatches it.

People are not some merchandise.
That's why they're different.

Fine. I'll do it myself.

Allen,

I don't have any way to stop Tae-yoon,

but I know a way to stop Joo-yeon.

The failure of the New Brand Team
was already expected.

The clothing market in Korea
is already dying.

It was a mistake to try
and sell boutique brand on television.

Seeing that they failed during
two prime time slots assigned to us,

I just see no future in them.

The New Brand Team's product and business

require time to appeal the trends
to consumers.

If you could consider our business
in the long run...

What about our immediate goals
and figures?

All the other teams are carrying
New Brand Team's load.

The future of the entire bureau is
at risk because of one team.

Expanding the business online
at this time is...

It doesn't make sense.

Chronic gastritis again?

I get it every time I'm stressed.

I'm sorry for making you go through this.

Forget it.
Anyone who's worked over ten years

has diseases like this.

Didn't you say you have heartburn?

Tae-yoon,

you saw the products we chose
at the workshop, right?

What did you think about them?

That's for you to decide. Don't ask me.

Making decisions needs practice.

You need to do it over and over.

What if I fail?

Fail...

That's okay.

You have someone backing you up now.

I'll protect you.

Sure, and that's why you're sick.

Seaweed, carrots, broccoli and pumpkins.

What else? Black beans, spinach and tofu.

What are they for?

Sorts of food that alleviate
chronic atrophic gastritis.

Oh, and tomatoes too.
And cut down on the coffee.

How do you memorize all that? Since when?

After I learned about your condition.

Do you like me?

What? That's ridiculous.

I'll write them down on a sticky note
and put it on your desk.

Make sure you eat them.

And,

I'll do my best.

So that you're not put
in an awkward position.

I'll show everyone that

your decision was right.

I'll make it happen.

Okay, I trust you.

Hi, you're here.

I'll wait upstairs.

We're going to focus on marketing.

We have an interview
for our company webzine.

Good luck.

So, I've heard you two are
high school friends.

Can we get a friendly shot?

That's nice.

We've been best friends for a long time.

One day, I was eating out with her
and the idea came to me.

The answer was a select shop.

I didn't have anything
against home shopping. I trust my friend.

Should we take another shot over there?

Sure.

Don't overdo it. You're scaring me.

We have similar tastes.

It was like that since we were young.

We used to share a lot of things
and I guess we became similar.

It's because we're friends.

I think that's enough. Thank you.

Thank you.

How many faces do you have?
I asked you not to go too far.

I told you we should leave it at
being alumni of the same school.

Why did you pretend so much?

I did today's interview in honesty.

There's no need to use
your multiple personality with me.

I...

still consider you...

as my friend.

How will you stop Joo-yeon?

The power of friendship.

I'll become friends with her again.

I'm someone who can't be friends
with other women. But...

-But I'll befriend her.
-What do you mean?

She won't date someone her friend likes.

That day, when we ate with
Tae-yoon in same dresses...

I went home and thought about it.
You were right.

I understand how you feel.

I'm sorry I hurt your feelings that day.

And what happened in the past,
it's my fault too.

All of it.

Don't do it.

You're using her.

I just do my best to get what I want.
Why is that bad?

Then what about others who can't get it
because of you?

They should do their best too.
Their life is on the line.

Why should they rely on my conscience?

By the way,

did you enjoy the show that day?

I heard you were there.

-I...
-Tae-yoon is mad at me, right?

Didn't you two break up?

It's a break.

We're always like this.

When you think it's over,

we start over again.

No matter how much we fight,
we never hate each other.

You know what I mean, right?

Anyway, let's do our best, Joo-yeon.

Come on. As coworkers and as friends.

We'll get far if we work together.

Who can stop you?

Fine, friends.

I'll do my best.

-Do you know what my goal in this is?
-What?

That our team becomes independent
from Fashion Business Department.

I want to be independent
and become a general manager.

Tae-yoon became a general manager
at my age too.

Of course, he was innovative
and the youngest to do so then.

But our company takes
into account performance for promotions.

All right, let's do it.

Welcome. Please have a seat.

I want to change my phone.

The number you have dialed is
not in service.

Please check the number and dial again.

NO POST YET

Woo-young, Age 27

I'm in Daechi-dong.

Since I work in the fashion industry,
I had fun reading it.

Fashion

The working hours at this place is crazy!

I work in broadcasting.

I feel so drained after every show.
It's like I used up all energy for a year.

J O Shopping Allows Designers to Go Abroad

Do you have a sanitary pad?

Don't you know I have problems
regarding my period?

Do you have a sanitary pad?

I need to go to the store downstairs.

Hee-jae.

Why is this thing here?

-Goodness.
-It's about time you guys took turns.

Hee-jae starts it off, and then Ms. Shin.

Lastly Ms. Lee.

They say no women are same,
so you all have it differently.

I almost want to write a thesis on it.

Ms. Shin becomes super sensitive.

Ms. Lee will crave for sweets.

And Hee-jae will eat a lot.

And everyone becomes so sensitive that

when it comes to that time of the month,
I have to convince myself

that I'm in a war zone.

Even still!

Why is this in the drawer?

I bought it while picking up
late night snacks yesterday.

Because I knew you'd look for it today.

There are stockings in there too.

I bought one color each for emergencies.

I have to go see the Marketing Team.

Come to think of it,
he's a little different.

You're right,
I've never seen him with a woman.

-Could he be?
-No.

Woo-young really likes women.

How would she know?

I just got home. When are you coming?

I'll leave soon.

I'm craving something.

Look who's talking after nagging at me.

Seafood pasta, with a lot of tomato sauce.

And a salad too.

Can you also pick up balsamic vinegar
while you're at it?

How did she know?

I'm one step ahead of you.

One would say we're soulmates.

Lucky you. You at least get periods.

Anything you want to tell me?

No.

I'm...

going to have the baby.

Do as you wish.

Actually, I haven't decided.

I want someone to stop me,
but there's no one.

My parents passed away long ago
and I have no siblings.

And all my friends have kids.

Don't try to depend on someone else.
This matter is really important.

Since it's really important,
you must think realistically.

You must be so happy to be so sure
about yourself.

I've never been jealous of you until now.

Did she ask you to take responsibility?

If not, all the more reasons not to talk
about it.

She just wants you to listen
and be with her.

It's not like that will solve the problem.

We'll both feel depressed.

All you had to do is listen to her
and say one thing.

No matter what decision you make,
I'll cheer you on.

You can talk...

about it.

Well, I can't...

really help nor take responsibility,

but I can listen.

It's likely that I won't be able
to get pregnant ever again.

So I want to keep the baby.

But I'm scared about everything.

After I got pregnant,
I'm scared of everything.

I never used to be
scared of anything before.

Even if I quit my job, I still have money.

So I thought I can just go to
a nursing home when I get old.

I could live however I wanted to.

But?

I thought about...

quitting my job before I start showing.

But I...

I really like...

this job after all.

People will talk behind my back,

saying that I'm a single mom.

I'm not sure if I can keep working
and stand all that.

Even if you decide to have the baby,

don't quit.

I'll fight with you
against the people who gossip.

Are you...

on something?

I'm good at fighting, you know.

Here.

What else are you scared of?

That my days of dating might be over,

and that I'll get fat and ruin my figure.

And also, what will happen if I die

before the kid is all grown up?

There's no need to worry
about things that haven't happened yet.

Aside from everything else,

I'm sure you'll date
for the rest of your life.

So don't you worry about that.

Giving birth is scary,

but this will probably be my last chance.

Here.

Since Wan came to me, a lot has changed.

I no longer have to walk
into a dark house.

Also, I don't have to watch
home shopping alone.

When did you come in?

Just now.

I'll boil the noodles.

Hold on, come help me.

Close your eyes.

-I'm unhooking.
-Okay.

I don't have to struggle putting on
and off a dress.

I'm done.

You can open your eyes now.

Hurry up and wash up.

And I...

Look at this...

I normally hate crying.

I never cried when I was alone.

I'm glad...

you've learned how to cry again.

You can cry in front of me.

I've become someone
who doesn't hold tears in.

Wow.

I started cooking too.

And eating at home became more common.

I'm glad you like it.

I'm going to gain weight.
It's so delicious.

The sauce is really refreshing.

And this has a lot of tomatoes
so it tastes better than restaurant ones.

By the way, did you call your mom
after moving in?

No.

She checked my emails
but she never replies.

Don't you know my mom?

I'm sure her assistant checked it
and told her I'm doing fine.

Is she still busy like before?

Even busier now
that her business became global.

Doesn't your mom say anything?

When she came to our place,
she saw Mom once in two weeks.

It's hard for me to see her too.

Mom probably never listened
to any of my music.

After my first CD came out,
I left it on her desk.

But even after a month,
the wrapper was still on.

Considering that, you've turned out well.

With a mom like her...

you grew up well.

Don't treat me like a child. I'm offended.

Would you be happy if I told you
you've aged well?

I grew up in a warm house
and got lots of love.

If there's something
that I'm blessed with more than others,

it's probably thanks to you, Shingshing.

Not the Shingshing now

but your younger self.

-Busy?
-No.

I want to listen to your music.

Why all of a sudden?

Let's hear "Now and Forever" first.

Do you remember?

When we went to see giraffes
on a snowy day?

I remember.

Giraffes.

We went to see giraffes. I remember.

I told you, this is a camel,
not a giraffe.

No, this is a giraffe.

Giraffes don't have bumps like this.

Have you never been to a zoo?

Your mom never took you to a zoo before?

Mom is busy.

Giraffe

Giraffe

This is a giraffe and this is a camel.

You get it now, right?

Yes, the one with the bump is a camel.

And you have to tell your mom
to pay for the stuffed animal.

We bought as an academic tool.

Do you understand?

Yes. But...

it would have been nicer
to go to a real zoo. Right?

We can go next time. It's too cold
for giraffes to come outside today.

Okay.

No, we really saw giraffes.

Look, we saw giraffes on the snowy day.

How come there isn't a thing
you remember correctly?

Look at the picture. It's really detailed.

This must be a zoo, not a toy store.

I told you, journals are
for writing what happened,

not for what you want to do.

You forgot everything.

It's snow.

It's cold when it snows.

It's the first snow.

First snow?

The first one of the year.

I see. The first snow.

You're saying that was a toy store?

Yes, a toy store.

Then when will you come
with me to see a real giraffe?

Let's go. Soon.

For today, I'll listen to your music
and think about it.

Think about what this feels like.

The wind is blowing.

The wind is warm.

I was sweating but I'm happy
because of the wind.

I'm out of breath so I have to breathe
with my mouth.

The wind came through my mouth.

Yes, that's it. That's happiness.

It's happiness.

Can you feel it?

You must have been lonely
in the United States.

And I've been living
without even realizing that I'm lonely.

But I realized after you came.

That before you came, I used to be lonely.

I don't have a lot of expectations
in life.

Like you said, maybe it's
because I've become a machine.

But it just became that way.

Life was tough back then,

and it's tough now.

But could tomorrow be better?

I never even thought about it.

But...

I know I like this moment.

I know that I'm happy right now

and this moment is peaceful.

That's a relief.

I'm glad you're able to enjoy this moment.

I'm sleepy.

I shouldn't sleep here.

You're not sleeping
with a clenched fist today.

Goodnight.

Honey.

Sleep tight.

This will go in the page.

Okay?

Here.

Wow.

Do you like it?

Here's the interview.

Home Shopping Evolves,
Only Possible with Her

That's enough marketing
from my side, right?

Thanks for being so helpful.
You must be busy.

I promised to help.

I hope it works out this time.

Don't worry. It'll be a hit.

This looks yummy.

Mom, can I pack some crab
for my boyfriend?

He looked after the store last time too.

Excuse me.

Could you call Ji-seung Han
in Room 506 for me?

His phone is turned off.

He is in the training institute.

He passed his exam.

He passed his exam.

I asked why he's not going to Daejeon.

He told me he stayed in Seoul
because of his girlfriend.

You didn't know?

A lot of guys dump their girlfriends
after passing the exam,

but Ji-seung isn't like that.

How could you do this to...

YOUTH, IT'S PAINFUL

Hee-jae?

Are you all right?

Yes, I'm fine.

Let's go down.
We only have 30 minutes until the show.

All right. We're going to kill it.

A special live show.
Get designer products...

from Celeb Shop.

THE BEST STYLIST
SE-RYEONG O

Okay.

Can the costume team check this again?

Ready.

Cue!

-I think Khaki will be popular today.
-I see.

We will complete the best styling
with Korea's...

best stylist, Se-ryeong O,
who will join us today...

-Welcome.
-Hello.

-Please sit.
-Thank you.

Could you say hello to everyone?

Hi, I'm style director Se-ryeong O.

Even before you came,
there was much attention to...

We already have great ratings.

Look over here,
online visitors are expanding.

You two, don't get too excited yet.

-Okay.
-Okay.

-Where's Ms. Shin?
-I don't know.

Oh my gosh, look at the sales.

What I'm wearing today was made
from designs

from the best designers
and best merchandisers

and myself, the best style director
Se-ryeong O.

As the style director...

Only the best can recognize the best.

And this...

-Good job. I thought...
-One second.

-Did I do all right?
-You always do well.

Even last time too.

I was so nervous.

Your presence calmed me down.

Thanks.

Take it slow. Just do as you always have.

Okay, just trust me.

We've already sold out all five sizes.

-Sold out?
-They just started the show...

No way...

-We did it!
-I know!

-I can't believe it.
-Our website

has too much traffic and is down!

-Too much?
-Too much!

I can't believe it!

Congratulations.

Thank you.

Congratulations.

-You too.
-We did it.

Could you stay with us
until the next show is ready?

I have to go.

We'll be back next time...

Sold out. All products are sold out.

There is only one person
that I can think of right now.

Shingshing's done it.

The next show is not quite ready yet.

Let's check out a video clip
we've prepared...

SWEET POTATO

I watched the show. Congratulations.

Go on. Do as your heart says.

Whatever you want.

Go wherever you want.

Go as far as you can go.

I knew you'd run right to me first.

I did it, Tae-yoon.

What are you doing?
You look like you might cry.

Do you know how worried I was?

Watching you take your medication

and watching you get bashed in meetings

made me really worried and hurt.

I wanted to do well...

because of you.

You did well, Joo-yeon.

What do you want me to do
for you? Just tell me.

No.

This deserves more than just a meal.

Fine, just say it.
I'll do anything for you.

On Sunday...

let's hang out.

Well, we'll watch a movie and eat,
then go for a walk. And...

What is this? Are you asking me out?

Yes.

Go on a date

with me.

Congratulations.

I knew it.

Life is a game

as well as a relationship.

I...

beat Se-ryeong.

If someone is trying to fool me,

I can pretend that I've been fooled,
since I can use that to my advantage.

There wasn't a moment when I forgot
that this is a war zone.

If she has something to gain
from fooling me,

then all I have to do is get what I want.

Why would she act like we're friends?

She knew how I felt.

She probably tried to stop me
from liking Tae-yoon

with the power of friendship.

But she's not someone
who knows what friendship is.

And so?

I...

am going on a date
with Tae-yoon on Sunday.

I was scared of being rejected
and tried to hide my feelings

but fear is not something only I have.

Now I know Se-ryeong has fears too.

She's scared of losing Tae-yoon forever.

I want to hurt her feelings.

What comes first?

Trying to hurt Se-ryeong
or your feelings for Tae-yoon?

Both.

Just think of your feelings for Tae-yoon.

Don't be mean.

How is that mean? I'm just paying back
for what she did to me.

She was trying to use me again
in the name of friendship.

But you just want me to hold back?

Nobody takes revenge for you.
You are the one who should take revenge.

Life goes on because people take
revenge on each other.

No.

You're wrong.

Life goes on
not because of people like you,

but because of those who are considerate,
patient and loving.

You aren't any different from Se-ryeong.

You're not different
from the woman you hate.

Actually, she's better than you.

Because at least she knows she's bad.

Don't make me regret coming back to you.

I found out today that you're that sly
and you're getting worse.

If you love someone
and want to be loved in return,

at least be truthful to your feelings.

Why are you being so harsh?

She's so impatient and rude.

Hey! You!

Why didn't you answer my calls
and change your number?

Even your name was fake.

You're the Lonely Senior next door?

She's a new member.
New Brand Team's Hee-jae Jung.

What? Is she your girlfriend?

Why are you holding hands?

I'll try to change.

I'm sorry.

Please leave.

And don't come back.
