My apologies.

I did not want you to get hurt, so I unintentionally

laid my hand on your body.

It was you.

It wasn't even your first time.

Pardon?

Huh?

I mean, thank you for holding me.

It's so nice to see you, but I'm a bit tired.

Shall we meet some other time?

It is late at night. Let me walk you home—

No, it's okay.

Take care, then. Bye.

Okay, if so...

I will get going now.

Get home safely, Teacher.

W-What are you doing?

Showing one's back to his teacher is impolite.

You crazy bitch.

Are you insane?

Why did it have to be you?

I wanted to be remembered as a cool teacher.

Oh, well, I just won't see him again.

Bye, Yoon Bok.

I know it's sad, but let's never, ever meet again.

My gosh. Geez!

Geez, so embarrassing.

[Episode 2: A Polite Man]

Did you sleep soundly last night, Teacher?

Are you okay?

W-What are you doing there, Yoon Bok?

I did not get a chance to tell you last night,

but I am staying here temporarily due to a situation.

I see.

I apologize if I scared you.

No, Yoon Bok.

It could happen.

Have a nice day, then.

What the hell?

What's this?

My goodness!

My gosh, what do I do? Gosh!

Gosh, so embarrassing!

Right, you know what?

Guess who moved in next door?

You'd pass out if you found out.

Should I tell you or not?

The person who moved in is...

Of all those houses under the Seoul sky,

why did he move there?

Huh? Did you run into Yoon Bok already?

He asked me to help him look for a place urgently.

You know he was my best friend at the academy. Right?

That's why I got him a place next to ours.

I see. It was you, huh?

Right.

He must've heard you putting on a show and swearing last night.

That's enough.

How embarrassing.

Anyway, I should tell him to keep his shirt tightly closed while living here.

Shit. That's enough, I said!

Oh-ho!

Hello? Hey, Ji Won.

Yes, come over immediately?

Okay, I'll be right there!

Gosh, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Gosh, why does this keep falling?

Why is the teacher avoiding me so much?

By chance,

did I make a mistake?

Would you be able to let me in today?

I dressed up so much, but it is still not good enough?

Why? Why? Why?

[VIP]

I have seen suspicious people entering the VIP room the last few days.

I have to enter, no matter what, today.

Why is the path of becoming a Jookdori so difficult?

I will devote myself to becoming one as soon as possible.

J-Jacob!

Yes, I'm here.

[VIP Entrance]

[VIP Only]

Did you sleep well? Let us meet up if you are free.

What? You want me to take you where?

I will make sure to...

always stay behind you.

How long do I have to avoid Yoon Bok?

What should we have for dinner tonight?

How about that place we didn't get to eat at last time?

Seongsan Hall? I thought you couldn't make a same-day reservation.

It'd be nice if someone could wait in line for us.

Hong Do.

Yes.

Could you make a reservation for us at Seongsan Hall?

Me?

Well, we're not asking you a personal favor.

We wanted to have a work dinner there.

We wanted to discuss the post-production. It's for work.

For work?

Okay, I will.

Hold on, I'll add an accessory.

What is it?

- Let's start. - Okay.

[Waitlist: Lee Do Yeong]

No, not this one.

It's okay. It's okay. Don't you trust me? You want to quit?

But this is a bit—

It's done. It's done!

No, not this. I-I can't do this...

- Come on! - No, no.

How about something less intense?

Good, good.

How could I dress so flashily?

You said you wanted to go to the club.

You have to trust me and follow my lead, then.

But this is a bit...

I'll put the robe back on and implore them at the door again.

Come on! You wore the school uniform instead of the robe in school.

A student needs to do so out of courtesy when in school.

Bingo.

If wearing the school uniform is a courtesy,

dressing like this is a courtesy toward the club.

How does that make sense?

Okay.

I was too harsh on you from the beginning.

Let's tone it down slightly, then.

Tone it down a little more.

How could I tone it down more than this?

I'll just go with that, then.

- Name for the reservation, please. - Lee Do Yeong.

Come this way.

Deputy Lee!

What took you so long?

I love you so much.

Do Yeong, when did you prepare an event like this? I'm so moved.

Deputy Lee Do Yeong is treating us to dinner tonight.

I'm sorry. Excuse me. Excuse me.

[Lee Do Yeong - 20]

Okay, applaud! Applaud!

Have a seat. Have a seat.

It was Kim Hong Do, wasn't it?

It seems so.

Lee Do Yeong! Lee Do Yeong!

[Deputy Lee Do Yeong of the PR Team]

[Intern Han Ji Won]

Yes, Ji Won. Where are you?

Didn't you go to the work dinner?

Work dinner just means more work to interns.

We need to relieve stress at times like this.

The club? If you have money for that...

Oh? It's free?

Where is it?

Okay, I'll be there.

[VIP Private Entrance]

Friend. Friend. My friend.

Oh, a friend?

F-Friend.

Friend?

Thank you.

[VIP Private Entrance]

Thank you. I'll be sure to return this favor.

Well, okay, okay.

Teacher?

Hello, Teacher.

We meet again.

Yoon Bok!

What brings you here?

Well, I stopped by to tend to some business.

Oh, really?

Running into you here makes me want to die—

I'm so happy I could die!

[VIP Jay Eight Club] There's a place I didn't get to check.

It is called a "VIP-only zone."

I attempted entering,

but they stopped me, saying not just anyone can enter.

I am sorry, but I need to go now.

Okay, okay. Bye!

- Gosh, what do I do? - Who's that? Who's that?

- Let's go! - Gosh, no!

It's peak time right now!

- Let's go, I said! - No, I want to stay longer. Stay longer!

Hey, what are you doing?

I'm sorry.

It's toward the back of room No. 5 on the VIP floor.

- It's really happening today. - Ji Won, let's go!

What did you say?

Let's go, I said!

No, it's the peak time right now!

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

[Jay Eight Club]

I'm sorry.

- Come here. - Whoa!

- Hey! - Pardon?

An eye for an eye,

a foot for a foot. Give me.

Pardon?

Give me your foot!

Hey, hey.

A VIP?

To say, "An eye for an eye, a foot for a foot,"

isn't the size difference too great?

W-Who are you?

What's with you? Are you his girlfriend?

I was just passing by.

I wanted to ignore it because I'm busy,

but my boss told me not to ignore injustice.

Shit.

Hey! B-Boss told you not to cause trouble.

Let's go!

I-I'll see you next time. Okay?

- Are you okay? - Well, yes.

I'll escort you back safely.

Don't get discouraged just because you're a weak man.

Strong woman.

Tell me your name, at least.

Kim Hong Hak!

What's with them?

Hey.

Yes?

- What? - Shit.

Are you Gamjjok?

I don't know stuff like that.

Looks like you aren't one of them.

Remove this rope, will you?

What the heck? Who's this now?

Who are you?

Are you Gamjjok or Gamjjok's underlings?

Do you have no fear at all?

Who are you?

You are very rude people.

Are you the thief who steals treasures?

I take pride in being a gangster.

We use our fists, but we don't steal.

Young Master!

Yoon Ah!

Yoon Ah. Yoon Ah!

Those bastards. Screens, ceramics, and the Buddha statue.

They stole a variety of things.

By the way, that man is...

He was tied up inside, but he does not appear to be Gamjjok.

I will interrogate him.

Please look for the men who ran away.

Okay. We'll find them quickly if we go after their gang.

Are you okay?

Yes, do not worry.

Where do you live? I will take you there.

I don't know about Gamjjok or whatever.

I just moved stuff because they said it'd pay well.

And my client gave this to me.

Who is that client?

I don't know.

I just get texts from a burner phone. There's no way to know.

Anyway, I'm innocent.

It says on my face.

"Innocent person. A good citizen."

Why were you held hostage if you're so innocent?

The thing is...

I saw something...

I wasn't supposed to see.

[Danwon Kim Hong Do's Cultural Landscape in Four Seasons is stolen! Is it Gamjjok's doing?]

[Woorim]

What is wrong?

Have you seen this man's face?

Get home safely.

Thank you.

Let us go.

Who are you?

Are you okay?

I...

remember.

Leave.

Yes, sir.

That man had a...

burn mark on his arm.

You broke open the piggy bank to go to a club?

Are you out of your mind?

You make it sound like only I went there.

We ran into each other there.

I went there for free.

And why would you bring Yoon Bok there?

Seriously, this is so unfair.

Yoon Bok suggested we go there. Okay?

Hey, come up with a more believable lie.

Yoon Bok wanted to go clubbing?

Who would believe that?

This is no good.

Let's go.

Where?

Let's have a confrontation with Yoon Bok.

Hey.

It's fine.

Don't overreact.

What did you say just now?

Are you telling me to care for this stranger?

He is hiding due to a situation.

Please let him hide temporarily.

How could I trust someone from the outside world?

And, Young Master, I'm a sensitive woman.

I cannot sleep even when an ant goes by.

I heard the singer you like is performing nearby this fall.

You mean my Myeong Joon?

I heard music is way more touching live.

You mean that precious ticket...

I think I could try to be slightly less sensitive.

Does he know how to do anything?

Make sure no one ever notices him. And...

let me know if there's anything suspicious.

This is the key to the village storage.

My father always carried it when he was alive.

[Woorim]

Yoon Bok, the Seongsan Gate opens widely for the first time today.

Remember that our village was reborn today.

We should have a birthday party since it was reborn.

Yes, we should.

I need to leave to tend to something now.

So let's have a party after I return.

Oh no! My goodness!

Master!

I heard the key chain was destroyed by the fire then.

How did it end up in Gamjjok's hand?

I am not sure. Let us start finding that out.

Grandfather would be worried.

Keep this only between us for now.

Okay.

I heard Yoon Bok recovered more treasures.

Wow! He is talented in finding precious things like you.

You must be so proud of him.

You've been achieving great things with the country through generations.

I should request the president to reward you handsomely.

It happened because we couldn't protect what we were supposed to. It makes no sense.

You have a strong sense of duty.

By the way, why did Yoon Bok go back to Seoul?

He is determined to capture Gamjjok.

How could I tell him not to?

What if something happens to him?

I still clearly remember his father's tragic death.

My apologies.

I was just worried about your only relative.

Hello, Chief Gatekeeper.

Joon Ho, you little!

Master Shin Soo Geun told you to dress properly when you visit the village.

My apologies. I came in a hurry since I ran out of ingredients.

I will take the ingredients and leave immediately.

Let him in.

Thank you.

[Seongsan Hall]

Yes, yes. Bring it here.

Lady Se Ryeong!

Are you okay?

Joon Ho, how dare you!

Are you hurt at all?

I am okay. I was just a bit surprised.

Are you out of your mind?

I told you to slow down when you enter the village in a car.

You almost injured another lady from a prominent family!

You little!

Did you dare to make that precious child sick?

You left the village without a word when you were young.

I did not want you to set your foot in here again.

But I gave you another chance since your mother begged desperately.

How come you are never careful and cause danger like this again?

Sir, please forgive him.

Why are you just standing there?

Beg for forgiveness right now.

My apologies.

If this happens again,

I will not let you bring a car in here again.

Keep that in mind, and be careful.

Okay.

Let us go, Se Ryeong.

The old man hasn't changed.

You little. How dare you talk about him like that?

What are you doing here?

I came for a reason, obviously.

My work life has been very interesting, thanks to you.

- What are you doing? - I'm sorry, Kim Hong Do.

So, please...

quit your job. I'm begging you.

What?

I feel uncomfortable because of you, and I can't work.

I apologized because you told me to.

You should do me a favor, too.

Wow, you never fail to exceed my imagination.

I'm kneeling even though you didn't ask me to.

So, please get out of my face, Kim Hong Do!

You leave instead.

Hey, Kim Hong Do!

Let me make this clear.

You quit if you feel uncomfortable at work.

I'll never quit.

Let go of me if you understand. Let go!

I said get lost, Kim Hong Do!

How dare you touch her?

You are using violence on your former lover?

Are you not ashamed?

What? How dare you butt in?

It's him.

He's the one who helped you then. Right?

Let's talk later.

What's with you?

What's your relationship?

You treated me like trash.

You've been seeing this bastard, too.

It's not like that. Okay?

Do not even dare to lay your hand on her.

Okay, okay! Let go, let go!

You do not have any manners.

Keep this in mind.

Manners make a person.

Shit.

Teacher, are you okay?

It's Yoon Bok again.

Whenever I feel small and tired...

Are you okay?

Yoon Bok shows up in front of me.

Thank you for helping me. I'll leave.

I will accompany you back home.

No, it's okay. I'll go on my own.

No.

Impolite people like him are everywhere at night.

I cannot let you leave alone as your student.

- I'm okay, I said. - But—

I said I'm okay.

I said I'm okay. Why do you keep insisting on seeing me off?

What are you? My bodyguard or something?

Why do you keep showing up and helping me?

I said I'll go on my own.

I can go myself.

Yoon Bok, you don't have to be embarrassed for being a bit different.

Whether people like it or not,

you're plenty cool as you are.

I came out in the world confidently, thanks to her. But why...

is she avoiding me so much?

By chance...

It's been so long.

Has it been seven years?

Yes.

L-Long time, no see.

I dared to approach her with a lie and...

I wanted to give you these flowers.

It is my gratitude as your student. Please take it.

Gosh, seriously.

Did you sleep soundly last night, Teacher?

I kept showing up out of nowhere and made her nervous.

I'm okay, I said.

I said I'm okay. Why do you keep insisting on seeing me off?

What are you? My bodyguard or something?

Why do you keep showing up and helping me?

I dared to make her feel uncomfortable and angry.

H-How foolish...

I dared to be so impolite to her.

Was I too harsh with him?

Gosh, you scared me!

Yoon Bok.

What are you doing here?

Get up right now.

I cannot do that.

I committed an unforgivable sin to you.

I cannot get up...

until you forgive me.

Hey, what are you talking about?

I understand why you have been avoiding me.

What?

"Teacher and father are united in heart."

Teachers are like the king and father.

One is obligated to be polite to them

and never cross the line.

But this foolish student dared to cross that line.

You must have been so sad and disappointed,

but I failed to understand that.

Would you forgive my impoliteness?

Hey, what are you doing?

It's not like that. Get up now. Hurry.

I cannot do that. Until you forgive me...

Get up, Yoon Bok! Right now!

Looks like you're mistaken about something.

I didn't avoid you because you did something wrong.

If so,

do you mind if I ask you...

why you avoided me?

T-That's...

not because you've been rude.

It's because I was embarrassed.

Pardon?

Hey, I got drunk and did stuff like this in front of you.

How could I keep my head up in front of you?

As you said, I'm your teacher,

but I embarrassed myself in front of you.

I embarrassed myself in front of you again earlier, too.

That's why...

It is okay.

What?

You do not have to be embarrassed of yourself.

Whether people like it or not, no matter what they think,

you are plenty cool as you are.

I will pay more attention to your heart from now on.

So...

please do not avoid me.

Okay, I won't.

I'll never avoid you from now on.

I finally...

I finally feel relieved.

- Let's go. - Pardon?

We're neighbors now.

But I haven't welcomed you since I've been avoiding you.

It's a bit late, but let's celebrate now.

This is a very rare opportunity. Okay?

I'm famous for being thrifty in this neighborhood.

I'll open my wallet only tonight. Let me know if you're craving anything.

But...

everything must be closed since it is late now.

There's one place.

My regular spot that's open for 24 hours.

Are you not spending too much because of me?

It's not like that, but...

you aren't uncomfortable eating with me. Right?

Not at all.

Why are you sitting there, then?

As I said, a teacher is like a king and father.

I cannot dare to share a table with you.

But, Yoon Bok, this is not Seongsan Village.

- But— - You're making me uncomfortable. Okay?

My neck hurts because I have to keep turning around.

And didn't you say you'd pay attention to my heart earlier?

I-If you feel that uncomfortable...

I will move.

Okay.

By the way, you seem to have changed.

In what regard?

You somehow...

became more confident.

You look like a very confident scholar.

It is thanks to you.

You know how to flatter people, too. You changed.

I ran away then because I felt burdened and afraid then.

But I mustered up the courage to go back, thanks to you.

I remembered your teaching every day.

In front of fear and what I believed to be right,

and my grandfather's scolding,

I tried my best not to become small.

Because I wanted to become confident like you.

Confident?

Was I like that?

Yes.

To me, you are the most impressive...

and precious person in the world.

What happened to your body?

What?

This? It's nothing.

- I was at work— - Excuse me for a moment.

[H Band-Aid]

Please put it on before it worsens.

Whenever I feel small and tired...

Yoon Bok shows up in front of me.

As if he's my...

bodyguard.

By the way, why are you walking so far away from me?

I cannot dare to step on your shadow.

I see.

Yes.

What do you do usually? Do you have a hobby?

I enjoy drawing.

Right. That's why you attended the academy.

What's your favorite food?

I like seasoned vegetables.

Seasoned vegetables?

Who's your favorite celebrity?

I have none.

How about a girlfriend? Do you have one?

I do not.

I see.

What's your phone number?

- Pardon? - Let's stay in touch from now on.

No.

How could I exchange phone numbers and treat you like a friend?

Hey, you can share your number...

It is okay.

O-Okay.

Teacher, did you sleep well?

Oh, yes. Hi.

Yoon Bok, did you sleep well, too?

Yes, I did.

I decided not to let anyone walk over me starting now.

[Trending Influencer Posts]

[Trending Influencer Posts]

Losi Fashion became a hit today, thanks to Hyang Gi!

Lee Hyang Gi! Lee Hyang Gi!

Of course, you're the star of our company.

Watch and learn.

What's that?

Well, I found it here.

Did someone leave it?

I knew it.

Learn from me.

Senior, did you design this yourself, by chance?

It looks like it's the same as my design.

What are you talking about?

Hey, Kim Hong Do. What do you mean, you designed it?

So...

are you asking me if I copied your design?

Yes.

Hey, Kim Hong Do!

Look at her. Hey.

Do you know what amateurs always think?

They think they're the only ones with ideas.

But that's not true.

Everyone else can read the trend just as much as you.

Yes, I see it's similar to your personal style,

but you can't say stuff like that without evidence.

What if there is evidence?

What?

Here.

It's really similar.

What? Did she actually copy it?

The unmatchable Lee Hyang Gi?

Lee Hyang Gi, is that true?

No.

I didn't even know she was on social media.

She probably saw it in person.

I gave it to Deputy Lee for his birthday.

You gave it to Do Yeong? You?

That's true.

I saw Ms. Kim that day.

My gosh.

I met her because she said she'd write the promotional material for me

and again later since she wanted to give me a birthday present. But she...

seems to have mistaken it.

What?

And when I told her I was dating Hyang Gi...

I actually planned to eat alone with Hang Gi when we had work dinner,

but Ms. Kim made a reservation for everyone. She must've felt jealous.

I thought I might as well treat everyone since it happened,

but I felt so bad for Hyang Gi.

I promised a romantic date with just the two of us.

I'm sorry, Hyang Gi.

Is that what happened?

We had no idea.

Hong Do, how could you do that?

Hey, Kim Hong Do, that's stalking.

Hold on.

That's not what we were talking about.

The drawstring purse design—

I'm okay!

But don't do that to Hyang Gi, Hong Do.

Hey, Lee Do Yeong.

That's enough!

Unless you want to resign.

Dismissed! Dismissed! Dismissed.

- Team Leader. - She's so unbelievable.

Excuse me!

Everyone in the world is walking all over me,

but there's just one person who never does that to me.

Was he always so handsome?

- Who is this? - Yoon Bok, have you been well?

How could I keep working here when I'm accused of copying some assistant's design?

Is it okay to walk all over me, then?

How dare an assistant do this?

I'll make sure you never work in this field.

Hey, bro!

Hey, Yoon Bok. Yoon Bok!
