Original subtitles

I see you're not trying to stop me from getting engaged today.

You're not quite suitable...

to be with a money-crazy Cinderella, so I gave up.

I hope you love her diligently...

and confidently.

Do you think I gave you money so you could help them out...

with their engagement?

I'm sorry. I'll make sure I pay you back.

And how long is that going to take?

Make sure Seo Jun doesn't show up...

at the engagement ceremony.

Hello? So Yu!

Seo Jun didn't get engaged.

I went missing?

I was so startled when Seo Jun told me...

that he heard you scream.

He heard me scream?

Tell Seo Jun that you were the one who screamed.

Tell him that's how much...

you wanted to stop him from getting engaged.

Look me in the eyes and answer me.

Did you put on an act to stop me from getting engaged?

That's how desperate I was to stop your engagement.

I heard you dropped your phone in the toilet...

on the day of Seo Jun's engagement.

Is that true?

Can you please tell me the truth?

Seo Jun, open the door!

Don't trust that brat!

Seo Jun, open the door.

Give me the key. Where is it?

Seo Jun.

I won't ask you why.

Just...

Just tell me the truth.

I'm sorry.

Don't apologize. You should get angry.

"What kind of person do you think I am?"

"Go live in your naive world."

Say all those stuff you're so good at saying.

- Seo Jun. - I'm sorry...

Please say something else other than apologizing.

I'm calling from Executive Director Choi's office.

Is there a master key to his personal office?

Yes, but I was given orders to ask anyway.

Hey, stop asking questions...

and just bring over the master key.

What? You want my employee number?

I'm Choi Seo Hyung!

Hey, don't you know how to unlock doors?

That brat's probably seducing Seo Jun right now.

Let me go over what happened one more time.

(Episode 51)

After I left the hotel,

you said you continued the meeting with Woodroffe.

I already told you everything.

If you wanted to stop me from going to the engagement,

you could've stopped me then.

But why later?

So you spilled your drink and went to the bathroom...

after the meeting was over.

And then, did you suddenly remember that it was my engagement...

and decide to pull a prank because you were bored?

Is that why you called me and screamed?

I wasn't bored.

Are you going to say you were desperate?

So Yu, are you normally this indecisive?

The day before the engagement, you tore my heart apart...

by congratulating me.

But on my engagement day,

you pulled a trashy prank. Is that the kind of person you are?

You even think a cup of coffee is too expensive.

So why did you drop your phone in the toilet?

You could've just told me that the battery went out.

And why didn't you tell me...

that you dropped your phone in the toilet?

None of it makes any sense, does it?

You can also tell that you're lying, can't you?

I was embarrassed to tell you that I dropped it in the toilet.

- That's why I said it broke... - So Yu!

Can't you...

just believe me?

What?

If I keep apologizing and saying things that don't make sense,

can't you just assume that something's going on?

And I'm asking you to tell me what's going on.

Why do you keep trying to find out?

No good will come from anyone finding out about that.

Can't you just...

let me fool you a little?

I'm asking you why you're trying to fool me.

If I could tell you why,

I wouldn't have started it in the first place.

So are you saying you can't tell me?

I'd rather have you throw things at me like your sister.

- It's better than this. - So Yu.

Does it not matter...

even if I think of you as a crazy gold-digger?

Do you not care at all even if get rid of...

all the memories I have of you...

and throw them away like trash?

Is this...

how shallow our relationship was?

I'm still very grateful...

for all the things you did for me.

I will...

pay you back.

I'm not trying to show off that I lent you money.

When I go home and think about you,

I find myself smiling because of how confident you are.

But was that all an act?

Is this the kind of person you really are?

So Yu.

I'm sorry.

What's going on?

You need to tell me.

If you tell me, I'll do whatever...

I'll do whatever I can to help.

Do you not trust me?

The story of Cinderella and Kongjwi...

need to get thrown out and discarded for good.

The rich belong with the rich. And the poor belong with the poor.

The rich should marry rich people.

And the poor should marry poor people.

How simple is that?

My gosh, I'm so angry.

Honey, why are you so angry again?

What are you doing here?

About what I told you last time... The Director...

Don't even start talking about that.

If I can't be a director inside the company,

can I at least be one...

outside of the company?

All I need is a nameplate with my name on it...

- and an office. - Tae Woong!

Okay, fine.

I get it, so don't yell at me.

Take a look at this.

So Dam did a photoshoot with the other members.

Where did you get this?

Your secretary left it here earlier.

So Dam must be really nervous.

You feel the most nervous...

right when you're about to make a debut.

What's the matter? Is there a problem again?

What is it?

So Dam, where are you?

Come to my office with your sister.

Why are you asking them to come to your office again?

Why? Are you worried about So Dam?

She's probably really stressed because she's about to make a debut.

So yes, I'm worried.

My husband.

You want to kiss me in the office?

Here.

My gosh.

I think my silicone got dislocated.

- I'm so stressed. - Call the hospital for me.

It really got dislocated!

What? You want to tell Seo Jun?

He's really having a hard time.

He won't even believe what I tell him.

You should've made him believe you.

There's someone who saw Ms. Nam bumping into me,

and that person told Director Choi.

Who?

The person from Charles Woodroffe's agency.

So you want to tell Seo Jun...

that Ms. Nam was the one who screamed?

Yes.

Then what does that make me?

I won't say anything about you.

I'll just tell him that I lent my phone to her,

and she ended up dropping it in the toilet.

Ms. Choi also knows the truth anyway.

How does she know?

She somehow found out.

Do you think Seo Jun will believe you...

when you already told him yourself that you did all that...

to stop him from getting engaged?

Even if he doesn't believe me,

I still want to tell him the truth.

By any chance,

do you really like Seo Jun?

No.

If you can't lie to him, that means you like him.

Don't jump to conclusions about how I might feel.

You don't even care about how I feel anyway.

That's more like it.

You should be more confident like this.

You've been acting too much like a gentle lamb lately.

She didn't say anything else.

She just told me to come with you.

Do you think she has something to say regarding my debut?

Ms. Choi asked us to come to her office?

Okay, see you.

- Isn't it pretty? - Yes.

So Dam, people are complimenting that your dance skills...

have improved.

There aren't many people who can both sing and dance.

A lot of people have high hopes for you.

Thank you.

So Yu.

Do you really want your sister to make a debut?

Of course.

Then I want you to confess.

Ms. Choi, it has nothing to do with So Dam.

I realized that I need to use your sister...

in order to make you do as I say.

So Dam.

I need to make a deal with your sister.

You need to make a deal with my sister?

What do you mean?

I'm going to test how much...

your sister loves you.

Don't you dare try to mess with my sister.

Threats only work...

when it comes from powerful people like me.

If you want your sister to make a debut,

I want you to confess that you tried to stop Seo Jun...

from going to the engagement.

(Voice Recording)

Ms. Choi, what did my sister do?

So Yu, what's all this about?

Can you see how she can't say anything?

Do you think she'd behave that way if she was innocent?

She'd be throwing a fit by now.

Tell me honestly.

- Yes, I... - So Yu!

So Dam.

Stay still...

if you don't want to ruin your life because of your sister.

I want to stay still.

But if you mess with my sister,

I'm not going to stay still.

Can you give up on becoming a singer?

- Yes. - So Dam.

Stay still.

How do you expect me to stay still?

You're about to say you did something...

you didn't even do because of me.

You want me to ignore that?

Stay outside.

Ms. Choi, let's talk about this without So Dam.

Sure. Leave the office.

- No. - No?

So Dam, what's wrong with you?

Hurry up and apologize.

Her life-long dream was to become a singer.

Didn't you hear her?

She just told me she can give up on becoming a singer.

There are tons of people who would die...

just to get a chance to perform on stage.

I guess I won't let you make a debut.

I'm sorry.

I'll apologize for everything.

So please...

Please don't do that to So Dam.

So Yu, what's wrong with you?

Your love for each other is touching.

Ms. Choi.

If you make me get angry, I really don't know what I might do.

What?

Do both of you enjoy making threats?

How dare you try to threaten me?

You know very well...

how reckless I can become.

You little...

Hey, do you want your life to end?

I already gave up...

on becoming a singer when I decided to follow you...

to the States one year ago.

So Dam.

Hey, hey.

Why are you so talkative?

Gosh, I really can't deal with you guys.

Goodness.

I want you out of my sight. Get out of here right now.

Get out.

Hey, didn't you hear me? I said, get out!

Get out. Get out of here.

Something happened between you and Ms. Choi, right?

Tell me.

What in the world is it?

Why would someone like her get scared because of you?

That's because I know a lot about her.

What did you mean when you said...

you could become reckless?

So Dam.

You never keep secrets from me.

But you never tell me anything these days.

Ever since Mom got sick,

you rarely tell me anything, and you're not as cheerful.

You've changed a lot. Do you know that?

I'm just upset because of Mom.

What about you?

Is it true that you tried to stop...

Ms. Choi's brother from getting engaged?

Well, there was a misunderstanding.

What misunderstanding?

It's too long of a story.

See? You're not telling me either.

You don't deserve to say I'm the only one who changed.

Why do things have to be so complicated for both of us?

How did we end up like this?

Things will get better once Mom recovers...

and I start earning money after I make a debut.

I really hope so.

Tell her I'm not here. Tell her I went to China on a business trip.

Yes, sir.

Is this place China?

Don't rub your eyes. You're not dreaming.

Why are you wearing hanbok?

Aren't I pretty?

What a sad life.

You can't even tell me I'm pretty when you know I am.

I had to shoot a drama for the holidays today.

I was going to take it off after the shoot,

but it felt like something was missing.

It felt as though someone needed to see me wearing this.

So I ran over here...

to show you.

They told me to take it off saying it'll get ruined.

So I ran away just like how I used to run from my mom...

so I could secretly go to the theater.

Aren't you glad to see me?

What's wrong? Do your ribs hurt?

- Should I give you a massage? - Don't do this.

I'm a man of my words.

And what exactly is that?

Breaking up with me?

- Yes. - And whom exactly is that for?

It's best for the both of us.

I made that decision after thinking about it a lot.

Is it because of the promise you made...

to your ex-wife...

saying you won't get married if your kids disapprove of it?

That's not the only one reason.

You and I have a huge age gap.

Once you turn 60,

I'll turn 80.

So you should stop visiting me like this.

But what if I really miss you?

I'll be doing fine.

It's not bad to have a person you miss once in a while.

Are you okay with just thinking about me once in a while?

Once you become my age,

it's not possible to be so passionate like you.

And even if I miss you,

my back would suddenly start hurting.

Then I'd feel grateful if I suddenly fall asleep.

It's just the opposite for me.

What?

Even if my back hurts,

the pain goes away...

once I start thinking about you.

Are you trying to play hard to get with me?

What?

You always tell me not to come,

but your eyes say the opposite.

What's going on?

Why is everyone dating in their office instead of working?

How dare you come inside without even knocking?

You said you broke up with her. Was that a lie, Dad?

I came here because I had something to say.

If you're done, please leave.

What in the world are you wearing?

- Did you get a role of a slave? - My goodness.

Are you one of those slaves who takes care of...

the queen's poop?

- Hey! - What?

What's wrong with you guys?

You're not in the bathroom. You're in the chairman's office.

You'll end up having to kneel before me one day.

So I'll just let you off the hook today.

I used to be really popular back when I acted as a maid.

What does she take me for?

Mi Ri! Where were you?

And why didn't you answer your phone?

What's wrong? Did something happen?

Hurry up and get changed into this.

There was only one last scene left,

but you suddenly disappeared.

So everyone in the studio is waiting for you to return,

and they're all really angry.

What? I thought I was done with my shoot.

I told you earlier that you had one extra scene left.

Gosh, I'm doomed. What am I going to do?

Hey, let's say my friend suddenly died.

My gosh, you already used that excuse last time.

Then what else? What should I do?

Should I just faint? How about we do that?

Then you'll get fired from the drama.

Let's stop wasting time and go.

- Let's go. - Come on.

He'll get rid of the lighting so that my eye wrinkles will show.

My gosh, come on.

Director Kim tends to get really testy!

My gosh.

Why are you being so hesitant? It's not like you.

Did you take medicine in the morning for your blood pressure?

What is it this time?

I found out why Seo Jun didn't show up...

at the engagement ceremony.

What do you mean?

It was because he had a meeting with Charles Woodroffe.

He wasn't late because of the meeting with Charles Woodroffe.

- Then why was he late? - It was because of So Yu.

Why is her name popping up again?

She pretended as if she got kidnapped.

She pretended as if she got kidnapped?

So Yu, that brat,

called Seo Jun when he was on his way to the ceremony.

Then she screamed saying "Help!"

And after that, she even dropped her phone in the toilet...

so that she could come up with an alibi.

- Isn't she despicable? - What?

That darn little...

Hey, Seo Hyung.

(Advisor, Hong Baek Hee)

The chairman?

She pretended to get kidnapped?

Okay, I'll be right there.

What's the matter, ma'am?

The chairman found out about the fabricated kidnapping scenario...

we planned for So Yu.

What are we going to do?

What's taking Ms. Hong so long?

She said she'll be right here.

What do you mean she pretended to get kidnapped?

Did you go around telling everyone?

What are you talking about? Yoon Tae deserves to know.

He's smart when it comes to stuff like this.

Of course.

I'm very good at crisis management.

I'll take a look at the situation thoroughly and carefully...

and deal with it nice and clear.

Is there no way...

to fire So Yu without causing a fuss?

Like I already told you before, we need to cause an issue...

with how she got the job in the first place.

I told you that's not an option.

If we fire her,

it'll only make things worse.

If we separate them, they'll slowly grow apart.

Are you kidding me?

Do you think they won't meet...

just because they can't see each other at work?

It's not like they'll be out of touch once they're separated...

like back in the old days.

With just a single text,

they can easily run away together.

I think Seo Hyung's right, Father.

People tend to do the opposite of what they're told.

The fire might die out if we leave it,

but we might be pouring gasoline onto it if we fire her.

Why isn't Ms. Hong coming?

- Call her again. - Okay.

Executive Director Choi isn't here...

Did you tell Seo Jun the truth?

No, not yet.

I want you to tell that to the chairman.

- What? - The chairman...

found out about the fabricated kidnapping scenario.

If you don't do anything, he'll surely take drastic measures.

This time, it won't be the same as how he used to threaten you...

to stay away from Seo Jun.

He might even call the cops.

The cops?

He won't believe you even if you constantly deny it.

Then what am I supposed to do?

Even so, you should still say you're innocent.

He won't believe me if Ms. Nam doesn't back me up.

But if we tell him about Ms. Nam,

he'll start being suspicious of me, and that can never happen.

Then what should I do?

Just leave Ms. Nam out of the story.

If you tell him that it was just a passerby,

no one would be able to find out who it was including the chairman.

But he might even check the CCTV footage at the hotel.

It seems like...

you want to prove your innocence by telling him it was Ms. Nam.

But you better not mention her name to the chairman.

If you do, I won't forgive you.

What are you going to do?

I have a lot of ways to ruin your life.

When I work with someone,

I always make sure I'm aware of their weakness.

I never sign a contract without not knowing their weakness.

So you better stand strong even if Chairman Choi...

tries to bleed you dry.

If you don't, your mom will die.

So you better hang in there.

Give him the VIP list and invitation sample.

- Here. - Thank you.

- This is the original file. - Okay.

I asked if we could meet...

so that we could prepare everything before we make an official team.

You two may leave.

What do I need to do for this project?

- You're more of a symbol. - A symbol?

You, the son of LX Group,

are like a celebrity to our VIP customers.

By the way, Se Hyun. How did So Yu's cell phone...

end up getting broken yesterday?

She lent it to someone, and that person dropped it in the toilet.

- Why do you ask? - I guess she told you the truth.

- What do you mean? - It's nothing.

Why do you keep trying to find out?

No good will come from anyone finding out about that.

Can't you just...

let me fool you a little?

What's wrong? Is something bothering you?

She could just tell me the truth.

I don't get why she's trying to hide it from me.

Who? So Yu?

Yes. She never told me that she bumped into someone,

and that the person who borrowed her phone...

ended up dropping it in the toilet.

She probably didn't get the chance to tell you.

Or maybe she thought I already told you everything.

Do you think so?

So does that mean I don't have to prepare anything for Styling Class?

- No. - I'll be off then.

Yes, Mr. Kang.

What?

So Yu got called to the chairman's office?

Why?

Okay, I'll be right there.

So Yu went to the chairman's office?

- Yes. - Can you guess why?

I think my sister told on her.

Seo Hyung?

She already came to my office and threw a fit...

saying So Yu pretended to get kidnapped.

I'll go now, Se Hyun.

So are you telling me...

that she actually believes So Yu pretended to get kidnapped...

to stop you from going to your engagement?

- Yes. - That's absurd.

It was because someone else dropped her phone.

Why is she blaming So Yu for everything?

That's why I'm going to go there and tell my dad it's not true.

Do you think he'll believe you?

What other way is there?

It's already weird...

that she borrowed your phone and dropped it in a toilet.

Did you say she works here?

Yes. It's Ms. Nam. She works for Ms. Hong.

Ms. Nam?

Why was she there?

Father, she might secretly film you.

So please control what you say and do to her.

Don't throw stuff like this to her.

If you look down on her, you'll get in big trouble.

She even pretended to get kidnapped.

Who knows what she might do next?

Seo Jun's weird too. How could he get fooled by that?

I mean, it's so obvious.

Do you think maybe Seo Jun gave So Yu a reason...

to do something like that?

A reason? What kind of reason?

You know what I'm talking about.

Maybe he forced her to get an abortion or...

Father, I told you not to throw stuff like this.

Did you stop Seo Jun from going to his engagement ceremony...

by pretending...

to get kidnapped?

Don't look at her!

Did you do that or not?

It's true that he couldn't make it there because of me but...

Did you really think you could keep him to yourself...

by pretending to get kidnapped?

I didn't pretend to get kidnapped, sir.

Why are you going back on your word?

You just said he couldn't make it to the ceremony because of you.

So why are you saying you didn't do it?

Are you determined to ruin my son's life?

Do you seriously think I'd let Seo Jun end up...

with a trashy person like you?

It wasn't on purpose, sir.

If it wasn't on purpose,

why did you call him when he was on his way to the engagement,

suddenly scream, and then not answer your phone?

Who do you think you are?

How dare you try to ruin my son's life?

She's my secretary.

Move over.

How do you expect me to move over when I know...

how harsh you're going to be to her?

Seo Jun, you're not capable of dealing with people like her.

You don't know how to deal with lowly and trashy people like her.

I'll take care of everything, so you should leave it to me.

Seo Hyung, hurry up and leave with Seo Jun.

Come on. You shouldn't get involved.

This happened because of me. Of course, I should get involved.

Why are you taking her side? She even pretended to get kidnapped.

It's a misunderstanding.

What are you talking about? I heard everything loud and clear.

Do you have evidence to prove...

that she didn't purposely pretend to get kidnapped?

- Evidence? - I'll apologize to her...

if you bring me evidence.

But if you don't, get out of my way.

I have...

evidence, sir.

(Gangnam Scandal)

You already look pretty without it.

- We keep hiding. - Someone might see us.

Does that mean it's okay if no one's watching?

I'm free after I'm done with this lesson.

Now that we made up,

how about we eat dinner at a place we both know?

It looks like they're dating. Could they actually be...

Hey, Choi Seo Jun.

- "Choi Seo Jun"? - This is more like you.

What do you mean?

There's a side to you that only I'm aware of.

(Gangnam Scandal)
