Episode 6

What on earth are you doing here?

No way... you're not the helper in my house?

You, who used to be the haughty lady, are now the helper in my house?

It's funny.

It's rude to leave before the client finishes speaking.

Are you happy now that you see me being a helper in someone else's house like this?

Yes. You've become very successful,

and I live like this as you see.

Do you really want to flaunt your success to me?

Is that why you purposely appointed me as your helper?

I want to flaunt my success?

Is that why I purposely appointed you as my helper?

What makes you think that? Wouldn't you consider the possibility that I still love you?

By the way, is there a helper who can't even make a fried egg?

That was a long time ago.

I've learned a lot.

I hope so. You needed to learn a lot.

You've become very successful. I guess you must be lucky.

After I got dumped by a woman, things were going really well for me.

Then I must congratulate you.

Thank you for congratulating me.

Give me a cup of water.

You'll feel uncomfortable if I stay. So I'll let another helper come starting tomorr—

I don't remember saying that I was uncomfortable.

The one who feels uncomfortable must be Lee Ji Eun, not me.

No, I'm not.

I don't feel small in front of anyone.

You taught me so well 10 years ago

that it's a pity to feel small in front of someone.

Besides, this is an honest job, and I get paid well.

You seem to have changed a lot.

Yes, I've changed.

No, I couldn't help but change.

So you're not the only one who has changed.

I didn't change that much.

If I'm different from the past, it's that I'm rich now.

Yes, Mi Ran.

I just came in.

Then when should I go?

I'm okay. Whenever suits you best.

Yes.

I didn't even imagine that Mi Ran and you were friends.

When are you going to tell Mi Ran?

You shouldn't keep this from her, about us.

Don't worry. I'll tell her when the time comes.

I have something to tell you. Have a seat.

I won't beat around the bush. I saw you working at the birthday party of Sunbae Jung.

So?

I appointed you (as a helper) on purpose. I wanted to help you out.

How can you help me out?

Are you going to give me all of your money?

You hate me. I don't know why.

You're mistaken.

I don't hate you.

You're history to me.

It's disappointing to hear that.

I've thought of you from time to time for the last 10 years.

I hated you and blamed you for a while.

Because it was you who dumped me.

But I really hoped that you were living well.

Now that I see you like this, it bothers me.

How sorry I am!

You feel bothered because of me!

I won't be able to be your helper then.

If you see me wearing an apron and working here and there, how heartbroken you'll feel.

You didn't grow up yet.

If you refuse my help, I won't insist either.

You can stay as my helper, if it doesn't bother you.

I will, because this is just business.

Don't you think so, Jang Se Hoon?

Of course. The past is just the past.

You're right. I'm a helper, you're a client.

That's enough for both of us.

Then I'll try to be the best helper that you might like.

If you don't have anything to ask, I'll leave.

♫ How hard has my life been? ♫

♫ How much have I tried to forget you? ♫

♫ In front of you, I have hidden it deep inside of me. ♫

♫ Since that day when I walked away, ♫

♫ how has it been for me? ♫

♫ If you are also like me, you will understand. ♫

Why are you so late?

I had a lot to do. Where's Young Eun?

She said she'd come late because she had some filming to do.

What's wrong? Are you ill?

No, I'm not. I'm just tired, that's all.

Go in and get some rest.

Good night.

Hello.

What's up at this late hour?

I just have something to tell you.

I wanted to meet you and talk to you, but I've been busy with the live show, meetings and all that.

Ji Eun, well, um... No, never mind.

Never mind. I think it's better to meet and talk in person.

PD Nam, will you check the captions, please?

Yes, wait a moment.

Ji Eun, I'm sorry. I'll call you again later.

♫ You who were born for me, I am now leaving you ♫

I wanted to give you something.

This is all that I can give you.

If you have something of the person you love,
they're bound to meet you again.

Here, you have mine.

♫ I live missing the way you were ♫

♫ Through all the unforgettable painful memories ♫

♫ I long for you even while I hate you ♫

If you refuse my help, I won't insist on it, either.
♫ But I guess I just couldn't help but love ♫

You can stay as my helper, if it doesn't bother you.
♫ If we meet again during the time I still love you ♫

♫ Now the only thing I can do is watch you from afar ♫

♫ If we meet again during the time I still love you ♫

♫ The painful tears will flow for all the time
I wasn't able to see you ♫

Sit here first.

- How can I sit here?
- Just sit.

Yeo Jin, what is a romantic relationship?

It's like riding a swing.

- Did you ride a swing when you were young?
- Yes.

When you ride a swing, you go up and down, up and down.

Do you think it's fun if the swing only goes up and never down?

Of course not!

That's why you have to be good at pushing and pulling.

There should be fun in romantic relationships.

But you're always a "yes man" to Bok Ja.

Yes.

That's why she doesn't have fun with you.

Besides, if you're always good to someone, you're likely to be ignored.

Bok Ja ignores you all the time, right?

- Yes.
- Tut, tut.

That is the first problem of yours.

You have to balance between being strong and being weak. Balance between strong and weak!

Besides, if you're always giving and giving again, you will get tired,

and the recipient will get used to your giving, and have no feelings.

Then, are you saying I have to play hard to get?

That's right!

A person who doesn't play hard to get has no charm.

Do you understand?

Yes.

Sunbae, what's up? Do you have something to tell me?

Not to you,

but I had a lot to say to Yeo Jin.

One-point lesson is finished. Then I'm leaving.

Why are you sitting here? You can only cause trouble. Get up.

Will you pull me out, please?

You're eating fried eggs every day.
What if our baby cries "cock-a-doodle-do" when it's born?

It's not "cock-a-doodle-do," it's "peep, peep."

The best fried-egg cook in the world must be my husband.

You never break the yolk once.

I always break the yolk, though.

You're right.

- I'll do it.
- It's okay. It's my job to do.

You look good in an apron.

I'm very impressed indeed. You still remember that I'm left-handed.

Life is full of ironies.

When we were married, you didn't cook me breakfast once.

Now that we're divorced, I get to eat breakfast you cook.

It looks good. Would you have some with me?

No, I'm fine.

Since we're here together, this reminds me of old times.

How about you?

The only thing that hasn't changed is

that we are facing each other across the table.

I'm sorry. I should've returned this to you earlier.

It must have slipped in my bag.

You still have this. What a surprise. I thought you threw it away.

The fact that this fountain pen used to belong to your father,

and the fact that you cherished it very much,

I know that much as well.

If you'd had such a wonderful attitude ten years ago,

what would have been different about us?

If you have any time, just think about that.

Don't assume that you're the only one who got hurt.

I lost a lot because of you.

You may go home when you finish your work. You don't need to fill working hours.

Hello.

Are you going to work?

By the way, you didn't answer your phone last night.

I went to bed early.

Ah, that's why you didn't answer the phone.

Will, how about lunch—

Meet me around 12 o'clock.

I have another call coming. OK.

Seolin's brand power is weak, making it dangerous for us to invest right now.

That is why we cannot settle for more than 20% of the margin.

If it's not 40%, there's no reason we have to merge.

Mr. Anderson, didn't you come this far because you have agreed on Seolin's potential?

Without some risk, you cannot earn anything.

Please, tell Mr. Rosman to take a risk in Seolin's vision.

Alright?

Okay.

Okay. Let's end this meeting.

Nice meeting you today.

Thank you.

It seems very difficult to accomplish this merger, since our offer is very exceptional.

Everybody wants to benefit from the merger. Nobody wants to take a loss.

They'll definitely contact us again.

Why don't you review the contract before the next meeting?

I will.

You want to hit a home run in this crisis and turn the tables, is that it?

Looks good. I have high expectations of you.

Let's go. Mi Ran is waiting.

You must have really fallen for that woman.

I wonder how long it will last this time.

Until I die.

No, until after I die.

I'm going to make her my woman so nobody can touch her.

I guess we'll be hearing wedding bells soon?

No, for now, I'm just chasing after her.

Why is she rejecting a man like you?

That's why I like her.

A woman who will chase after a guy like me has no brain.

Besides, men don't like clingy women.

Isn't that right, President Jang?

None for me.

She's allergic to oranges. So some time ago, I started to dislike them too.

She is really great.

The woman who made Jeong Min, the womanizer, like a 16-year-old boy.

I'm really curious... Is she pretty?

Of course, she's prettier than you.

Her face, heart, and even nostrils.

Let's have dinner together with her this Sunday, shall we?

When women see women, they judge them better than men do.

I'll see if she's suitable for you.

- You don't have any plans on Sunday, do you?
- No, I don't.

I can't wait to meet her.

She's worth the wait.

- Give it to me!
- Let me see.

Hey. By the way, I don't like the receipt number. 44?

I feel a little weird. There are double fours, the number represents death.
(the word for "four" sounds like the word for "death")

Are you saying a hindering thing when you follow me?

I like this number.

It's not the number four of dying but the number four of killing.

It seems like your company, Seolin, went all out for you.

Will. I actually don't like that you're working for someone else.

If I tell my dad, he'll pay off your company's debt in America—

We said we wouldn't talk about that anymore.

But no matter how much I think about it,

the CEO took too many of your company's shares in exchange for paying off your debt.

I'll handle my business on my own, so don't worry.

You have work to do. I should go.

Are you going to go straight home?

Yes. I'm thinking of inviting Ji Eun to the house.

Do you remember the friend that I ran into at the department store?

Hello.

Mi Ran, what's up?

What do you mean 'What's up?" I just called because I want to see you.

Where are you now?

- Let's meet.
- Huh?

Uh...

Work? Did you get a job?

Then how about tomorrow? I have so much to tell you.

S-something to tell me...?

It's soooo good to finish work early once in a while!

What do you want to do? How about a movie?

You're always a yes man to Bok Ja.

No, I don't want to.

Then, what about a drink?

That's right ! A person who doesn't play hard to get has no charm.

I don't like it, either. I'd rather go home.

Are you playing hard to get now?

Hey, did Hyung Ho Jin tell you to play hard to get earlier?

That's what I taught him when we were in college.

Wait for me.

Hello.

You do? Okay, bye.

Uh, Mi Ran. I want to go home early and get some rest.

Yes.

♫ In the dark sky, the glittering glow of the stars tells me ♫

♫ In the dark sky, the glittering glow of the stars tell me ♫

♫ That if I do not now, I can never do it ♫

♫ The yellow stars caress me ♫

♫ and shout your name ♫

♫ In silence the hidden memories awaken me ♫

♫ When you have never needed anyone ♫

♫ And I've just tried to be the man you need ♫

♫ Now love and hate, I have sent them far away ♫

♫ When you have never needed anyone ♫

Isn't this nice timing, or what? Why aren't you getting in?

Get in.

♫ When you have never needed anyone ♫

♫ And I've just tried to be the man you need ♫

♫ When you have never needed anyone ♫

♫ And I've just tried to be the man you need, but you ♫

♫ When you have never needed anyone ♫

I'm off at 8 o'clock. You'd better warm the soup up in microwave.
♫ When you have never needed anyone ♫

♫ And I've just tried to be the man you need ♫

♫ Now love and hate, I have sent them far away ♫

Why don't you live with me? You won't have to work at all then.

It's not that I'm ashamed of or I dislike the fact that you're a helper.

I think if you're good at taking care of things around the house, you can be good at anything.

The only thing that bothers me is that it seems to be very hard work for you.

You know that I'm a strong woman.

Do you want me to be honest?

I don't like it that you're working at President Jang's house.

President Jang is very attractive, even for me, a man.

You asked me before. Why didn't you try to rise up from the despair?

Honestly, I want to rise up.

But I don't see any hope even if I did.

Can't you be my hope?

Why aren't you answering me?

Well...

Don't well me. It's so ambiguous.

Jeong Min... I'm just...

We meet from time to time to have dinner, and talk to each other at the playground,

and go to the racetrack to win a bet.

I just want us to remain as good friends.

Can't you do that?

I can't.

Okay, then get into the game of endurance.

Long time no see.

Aren't you staying outside too late?

You remember me, right?

We became friends. Even though I'm trying to be your sister's man right now.

You chose the wrong target.

I'll go in first. See you again.

You should go, too. It's late.

She's bold. She's very different from you.

By the way, you said you're off this Sunday, didn't you?

Make sure you're available on Sunday evening.

"Make sure" means no ifs, ands or buts. You have to be available.

What is he to you?

I said, we're just friends.

Friends? Are you sure?

Can you face the consequences of what you said?

Why aren't you answering me?

I met him before you.

So don't even think about anything else.

Think about what?

You're not being honest.

You like him too, don't you?

But you know too well that he's way out of your league.

You've taken everything away from me for my whole life.

Mom and Dad's love, studying abroad.

I won't let you take anything away from me again.

I can't anymore!

Give me a cup of coffee, please.

Please wait for a brief moment.

Are you wearing those clothes to put on or just to cover yourself?

Don't you have to be more chaste now that you're living with my father?

You're very rude. Hey!

I'm your father's wife. We had a wedding ceremony.

Of course I know that.

But I know your name, Kang Ji Seon, is not on my family registry.

Do you think you can treat me like this?

So did you get in here because you want to be treated by me?

All right. Even if you think I only married your father just for his money,

there's nothing I can do about it. Think whatever you want.

How can I make you believe me?

Don't nag my father about the family registry.

You were nagging him earlier, weren't you?

What if his blood pressure spiked up and something happened to him?

I don't think you've gotten anything big from him yet.

If you believe my father 100%, you'll lose. When he turns his back on someone, that's the end of it.

By the way, should I let you know one thing?

When you stand in front of a rival, you should be limp.

That makes you look pitiful.

Why do you have so many complaints?

I have a lot of complaints, that's why I resent the world.

If you drink coffee on an empty stomach, your stomach will hurt.

Do I have any stomach left to hurt more?

Ajumma, isn't the chairman's medicine ready yet?

Yes, here it is.

Honey, tell him to move out.

Why are you insisting that your grown son live here?

It's uncomfortable for all of us.

This medicine is more bitter.

Honey.

Mom, I'm going out.

What? Are you feeling depressed again?

Should I bring you your medicine?

No, don't bother.

I'll be back soon.

Don't worry about me. Just go.

Mom, I'll bring back some blueberry cheesecake.

Honey, how lucky it is that you don't get old.

When would be a convenient time for you and your husband, so Will and I can adjust our schedule to yours?

Mi Ran, I... I got divorced.

When?

It's been a while now.

Is that why you've been living so quietly?

I didn't do it on purpose.

I never would have imagined that you got divorced.

You were so in love with him. I thought that you were doing well.

That's why I asked you to have dinner with us.

I'm sorry.

What do you mean sorry? I'm the one who didn't tell you.

Actually, Will's divorced too.

But after his divorce, he came to America and became successful,

so maybe divorce was good for him.

I'm fortunate to have met him.

But do you know the thing that I can't stand the most after this happened?

Will blames himself for my using a wheelchair. It happened while I was in his car.

I wanted to break up so that I wouldn't be a burden on him,

but he said he would never leave my side.

In the beginning, I thought he stayed with me out of pity, but when he held my hand and proposed,

I could see his feelings were sincere.

But Ji Eun, sometimes I feel

like I'm holding him back.

I'm sure you're not. I think he really loves you.

I could see it in his eyes.

Really? Did he look that way?

I should go home now. My mom—

Have lunch with me. Will went to play golf.

I had my housekeeper make your favorite food.

You must have been very tough.

You got divorced, and your father passed away. I couldn't have handled it.

At first, I was afraid about how I would live.

But after a while it got better and the memories faded.

I had to survive somehow.

Are you seeing anyone?

No, I haven't even thought of it.

Why not? You're still young and pretty.

I should ask Will to find a nice man for you.

No, don't do that. I don't have much room for that.

Miss, it's for you.

Did you play a good game today? Really?

There are no secrets in this world.

He said he would tell her.

It's not something we need to hide, but it's not right for me to be the one to tell her.

Yes, you don't need to get involved between two of them.

It's their business.

I just can't believe, of all people,

that Jang Se Hoon and Mi Ran ended up together!

I saw that flirtatious Mi Ran trying to woo Se Hoon,

and I couldn't even stand to watch them.

But I did feel a bit sorry for her. Seeing her in a wheelchair did make my heart hurt.

Who would have thought that perky Mi Ran would have ended up in a wheelchair?

Do you want some more coffee?

No. Are you all right?

About what?

It's still your ex-husband engaged to your friend.

There is something more shocking than that. Do you want to hear it?

I'm working as a helper in Se Hoon's house.

It's really shocking, isn't it?

Life can be so complicated and confusing.

I just can't figure it out.

But it doesn't matter. It's just work, after all.

Wow! Your life is just like a movie.

But it seems like you really are okay with it.

Should I be more honest?

I thought that I forgot about him, but I do still dream of him sometimes.

Why do you dream about him when you don't get paid for appearing in the dream?

Hello?

Yes. Right now?

Where are we going?

To spend some money.

What's wrong with me buying you some clothes?

Actually, I told my friend that I'd introduce you.

I want to show off that I have a wonderful woman.

I'm sorry. I knew you wouldn't do it if I told you first.

I'm sorry if I made you feel bad. Please just help me for a few hours.

All right. I know how you must have felt.

Can I buy something expensive?

♫ When you have never needed anyone ♫

♫ And I've just tried to be the man you need ♫

♫ Now love and hate, I have sent them far away ♫

♫ When you have never needed anyone ♫

♫ And I've just tried to be the man you need ♫

♫ Now love and hate, I have sent them far away ♫

I think you are so pretty.

I don't think I would let you go to someone else.

Haven't the people with whom we're eating come yet?

You probably know them.

Oh, they're here.

That's Ji Eun.

- Why didn't you tell me about Jeong Min?
- Oh?

Let's get together often, the four of us.

Will, wouldn't it be nice for couples to meet together?

I don't want to. I want to be alone with Ji Eun.

You really have fallen hard for her.

How much do you like her?

A corny question will get a corny answer, don't you know?

I like her more than I could even say.

Do you feel the same, Lee Ji Eun?

Do you like Director Seo?

Aren't you going to answer him?

Silence possibly means it's a yes.

Let's stay like this.

Try it. It's tender and the sauce is good.

Yes, thank you.

I don't like salmon too much but you seem to like it a lot.

Would you like another glass of wine?

Sure.

Wait a minute.

Hello? Yes...

I'm eating dinner.

Excuse me.

When are you coming home? Are you going to be late?

Mom, what's wrong with your voice?

Are you feeling down again? Are you feeling sick?

You know that I don't feel well most of the time.

I don't have any appetite.

Well, I'll bring home something.

How about sushi?

Okay. I'll be home soon.

Your mother must be happy.

A man with a good background like Director Seo is just what your parents wanted for you.

You never cease to amaze me.

Why didn't you tell me about your relationship?

Do I have a reason to tell you?

No, you don't.

Did you steal his bag again like you did to me?

I want you to be happy with Mi Ran.

And you happy with Director Seo?

Stop being immature about this.

There is no rule that says only you can be happy.

Of course, you should be happy.

I wonder if he knows that you're divorced.

Of course, he knows it well.

I hate looking back on my past, but it's a part of my life.

A woman named Lee Ji Eun has come back into my life again.

How do you feel about showing up after 10 years, and becoming involved in my life again?

Stop, I don't really want to fight with you.

Are you going to marry him?

I've never once thought of it,

but thanks to you, I should seriously think about it.

Ji Eun.

Who were you talking to on the phone for so long? I missed you.

Those two really suit each other, don't they?

I feel sorry for Ji Eun.

Her father passed away, her family lost all their money, she had a miscarriage, and even got divorced.

Your friend must have a lot she wants to forget.

Still, I'm glad that Jeong Min seems to like her a lot.

How does Jeong Min seem to you?

He's a good person.

He doesn't seem like the type to make a woman cry.

Right, didn't you say you had something to tell me before?

What was it?

Nothing.

I don't want to be alone.

Can't you sleep next to me tonight?

I don't think that I can sleep.

Well, will you stay until I fall asleep?

Of course, I can do that.

I had the dream again last night.

They say the greatest gift God gave humans is the ability to forget.

But I can't seem to forget the accident.

I keep telling myself to forget it, but I guess it's not that easy.

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you feel uncomfortable.

Don't try so hard to forget. You can't force it.

Okay.

Everyone has something that they'd like to forget.

Ji Eun.

Mom.

Hello.

Who is this man?

Umm....

You're beautiful because you take after your mother.

You must be Ji Eun's friend. Do you want to come inside for some tea?

What does your father do?

He runs a business. I work for Seolin Group.

You're a director? But you are so young. How impressive!

No, it's in name only.

You seem so down to earth and you're very handsome.

Can I speak casually to you?

Of course.

Do you have any intention of marrying my daughter, Ji Eun?

- Mom!
- Huh?

Are you going to marry him?

I've never once thought about it,

but thanks to you, I should seriously think about it.

Your mother's like a teenage girl.

Don't think too hard about what she said.

As I told you before, I just want to be good friends with you.

Are you saying that because you were married before?

I told you that I didn't care about that.

I don't think you dislike me.

You're right. It's not that I don't like you,

and I know you're too good for me.

Then, that's good enough for me.

Jeong Min, truthfully, the person I was married to—

I'm... I'm going to take one step forward.
