Original subtitles

I'm Akitsuki Koji. Nice to meet you.

I can help make you have a good time.

You must see our boss soon.

But I'll let you know in advance that our boss is very good-looking.

Don't fall for him.

Does he remember me?

According to the brief from Mr. Mark,

the product is a matcha biscuit which will be launched this summer.

He probably doesn't.

Or does he?

Translate.

According to the brief from Mr. Mark,

the product is a matcha biscuit which will be launched this summer.

So we've come up with an idea for launching a TVC that emphasizes on...

Get it together! Does he remember me?

And how suitable matcha is as a gift for the elderly,

especially the elders who love matcha.

That's what Mr. Mark requires.

He said he's going to create a TVC about how matcha green tea

is a great souvenir for the elderly who need to take care of their health.

But I have a supplemental idea.

Truth is if we market this product as just something for the elderly,

we're eliminating our customer base significantly.

So let's expand the audience to include both teenagers and young working professionals.

These days, every age group is extremely health conscious,

so we can use that to our advantage.

Let's make an advertisement that focuses on the health benefits of your product.

Translate that.

Okay.

Marketing it as just a souvenir for the elderly...

If we also include teenagers and working professionals, our target group will expand.

Presenting the benefits of green tea will likely make them happier.

Let's go with that.

You're so smart, Mr. Koji.

Mr. Mark is going to love this idea.

The new interpreter is Noom Nim.

Today's her first day.

Ask her to come to my office.

You heard that.

My name is Akitsuki Koji.

You can call me Boss, like everyone does.

Our company is like a family.

We're not very strict, but you have to be responsible for your work.

The HR department has probably talked to you about our rules.

Here is your employment contract.

Do you have any questions?

No.

Thank you.

Don't make me wait next time.

I mean when you translate in the meeting,

you should do it faster,

not make me wait and solve your problem.

That's all. You can go.

I sent you some files on Chatwork.

Please complete the translation today.

Okay.

Twenty files?

I thought you're good at this.

The files are short.

Oh, I forgot to tell you.

I just sent you three more files.

When you complete your translation, send them back to me.

Noom Nim, have you finished?

Not yet. I have about six pages left to translate.

I can help you with those.

I'll call my mom and let her know I can't make it to dinner with her.

No, it's okay. I'll finish up and send them to you.

Are you sure?

Yes. Your mom is waiting. You should go.

Thank you.

Bye.

Hey. Anyone wanna go to Izakaya?

There's a beer buffet tonight.

I'm down! I wanna get wasted!

What time do you get off work, Nim? Wanna go with me?

I can't tonight. My work is not done.

Seriously? But it's your first day.

Why is there so much work to do?

I feel like I'm being bullied as a new joiner.

Why? Is your boss very intimidating?

That's another story.

Do you know who my boss is?

Who? Is he handsome?

Take a photo of him and send me!

I wanna see!

Talk to you guys later. I have to work.

Too much work?

No.

I'm just slow at translating.

There are some words I don't understand.

Okay. Ask me what you don't understand.

It's okay. I can try to figure it out myself.

Don't you get it?

If you're slow at translating, I have to leave the office late too.

Translate.

Okay.

Any more words?

Why are you staring at my face?

Any more words?

This one.

Oh, desideratum.

This word in this sentence means something important,

something that is wanted,

something you can't live without.

♫ Do you think you're the only one who feels this way? ♫

♫ Do you think I don't feel the same? ♫

♫ Are you sure it's a good idea to keep it to yourself? ♫

♫ Tell me how you feel. No more guessing game ♫

Got it.

Thank you.

If it wasn't for your help, it would've taken me another hour to translate.

Your job is my job.

I'm driving you home. Let's go.

Pardon?

I'm driving you home.

It's okay. I'll take the skytrain.

Don't you love to argue.

Follow me.

♫ Don't flirt with me ♫

♫ I'm feeling butterflies ♫

♫ If you really love me ♫

♫ Say you love me ♫

♫ Will you? ♫

♫ Will you? ♫

Good night.

Thank you.

He really doesn't remember me.

That's why they say don't fall in love in a bar.

Do you guys think it's possible to not remember someone you kissed?

No way! You would remember who you kissed.

Don't tell me you saw that man from the bar.

Yes. That man from the bar is now my boss!

He seemed indifferent and didn't say anything about that night.

Didn't even mention or remember anything. What does it mean?

Basically, you have nothing worth remembering, plain jane.

You're horrible!

Let's guess each other's outfit.

I'll go first.

I want to drink blood!

- An ogre? - Annabelle.

Guess my outfit.

A crow?

Are crows in your area red?

Lady Gaga.

Yes. You know nothing. What's your outfit?

Ang Ang Ang.

Angsumalin?

Shizu...

A Shih Tzu dog?

What about you, Nim?

Have you thought about what you're going to wear for the party tonight?

Enough with the outfit show off.

If your work is not done, you can't go.

The Japan office has sent more files.

Please finish your translation today.

But I haven't finished the other files yet.

Then you must hurry or you won't get to the party in time.

You're high-performing, you'll be fine.

This is good work like I instructed.

But I think the new girl's won't be as good.

She won't be able to join us tonight. By the time she finishes, the party will be over.

How is your translation coming along?

Are you close? Will you be able to finish in time?

I've already sent the files to your email.

Little Mermaid.

Little Mermaid.

Okay.

How is it going?

Is the translation of the quotation and Mr. Mark's schedule ready?

I've already sent them to you on Chatwork.

Oh, okay.

Fast work.

Great translation as well.

Thank you, Ton. You know my work is always of high quality.

We have time left to do some more work before the party.

Can you translate two marketing materials for Mr. Mark's company?

Of course.

- I'll let you take care of it. - Sure.

You heard that, right?

You can translate only one folder for now. The other one is not urgent.

If you're worried you won't finish in time, just overwrite the old files.

He complimented the quality of our work, so keep up the standard.

Of course.

I'll do my best.

Let's go grab some food.

You should take a break.

You guys go ahead. I need to finish this in time.

Ploy made you do it, right?

It's my responsibility.

Don't worry.

I brought my lunch.

Nim, why are you being such a good girl?

You make us look like villains.

We're going to lunch then.

Okay.

You don't have to pressure yourself.

It's urgent.

It's an order.

Boss.

I need you to do something urgent.

But my work is urgent.

I'm worried about your work so I'm making you do this.

If you don't eat, you can't give your 100%.

You don't have to worry about that.

I worry about every one of my employees.

Close your laptop.

This is an order.

[Eat.]

I've finished the translation. I just sent it to your email.

Good. I hope you can keep up the standard.

Why did I receive only one file? I asked you to work on two files.

Did you not translate both of the files?

But you...

I sent her two files and told her the deadline in the group chat.

If you don't believe me, read the chat.

Noom Nim, if you couldn't finish your work in time, you should tell me early on.

I understand you want to take on many things to show off.

But you also have to meet the deadlines.

But you told me I could finish one file first, and do the other one later.

You are trying to blame me for your mistake?

Do you still have the backup file?

I overwrote it with my translation.

You're working for a company, not doing a class presentation.

This is why I don't want new people.

I'll get the backup file from another team.

I'm sorry for the mistake.

I'll fix everything by today.

At least you're taking responsibility.

Apologize to the planning team as well.

Action.

Woo!

You shouldn't have to go through this.

I told you Ploy is a snake.

It's okay. Have fun for me.

Let's go.

Gagagagagaga.

Not leaving yet?

No.

Make one for me.

Okay.

Bring it to my room.

It tastes bitter.

Really?

How much sugar do you want? I'll make you a new cup.

There's no need. It's fine.

Everyone else is at the party.

What are you still doing here?

Ploy asked me to translate the plans for Mr. Mark and the simulation.

I've only finished one.

Did she just tell you there were two files?

I was careless.

Do you realize you won't make it to the party?

To me, the party is as important.

I don't want to have fun when I still have work to finish

and send to other people.

I don't want to keep them waiting.

I want to finish it first.

Turn off your computer and get ready.

I haven't finished my work.

Don't you feel uncomfortable making your boss wait?

We work and play hard here.

But I have to submit my work tonight.

Doraemon!

Noom Nim, have you finished your work?

Not yet.

We have to submit it to the client tomorrow.

I shouldn't have trusted a new joiner.

I can't believe young people these days are like this. How irresponsible.

You won't get converted to a full-time employee, let alone pass your probation.

What are you going to do about the work due tomorrow?

What if you cause damage to the company? Will you be able to take responsibility?

Yes.

I will take responsibility.

I've talked to the client.

Sorry I made you feel uncomfortable.

I'm not blaming you, Boss.

This is not your responsibility.

Noom Nim should complete all her work by the deadlines.

Seeing the amount of work,

I think even the two of you help, you won't complete it in time.

I'm sorry. I won't let it happen again.

I'm sorry.

Noom Nim, let's get you dressed up.

Please excuse us, Boss.

Go. Why are you looking at me?

Okay.

Hey, Boss.

Why aren't you dressed up?

We're all dressed up.

It's not fair.

It's not time yet.

You look gorgeous.

I want to wear your dress.

I want your crown.

Wow.

Are you dressed as Elsa?

Cinderella!

Oh, right.

Come on, get your food, Cinderella.

If you don't eat before midnight, your evil stepmother will hit you.

Luckily, the prince saved her just now.

Did you see how stepmother Ploy go white?

Serves her right for treating others like servants.

Don't do it, Ploy. Let them talk.

You know what you're doing.

Let's eat.

Everyone, listen up.

Put your glasses down.

Come here.

We have a surprise for you tonight.

Come here.

Let's have fun together.

You all haven't seen our boss dressed up, correct?

Yes.

- Do you want to see him? - Yes.

Make some noise if you want to see him.

Okay, I'm going to ask Mr. Koji to come up.

Three, two, one.

Please come up.

♫ Let me touch your heart and see how fast it's beating ♫

♫ You come and make my heart skip a beat like this ♫

♫ I think you're feeling it too, right? ♫

♫ My heart is pounding the rhythm of love ♫

♫ What's the rhythm of your heart? ♫

♫ Why you gotta be shy? I just wanna know your rhythm. Can I feel it? ♫

♫ I wanna feel your rhythm. Do you know I wanna? ♫

♫ Do you feel the same? Give me a sign ♫

As you all know, Ms. Nim is our new joiner.

This is her first party with us and she almost couldn't make it.

Why?

I haven't finished my work.

Right.

That work is supposed to be submitted to the client tomorrow morning.

But from what I saw, even if she worked all night, she wouldn't be able to complete it.

I'll get back to it right away.

No.

This Monday, you should clear your desk.

You're not right for the translation department anymore.

Boss.

Finally, she's getting fired.

I knew she wouldn't last.

You will sit in front of my room instead...

because I'm making you my secretary.

His secretary?

There hasn't been this position in a long time.

We should celebrate.

Nim will treat us. Right?

Nim.

What's wrong? Aren't you happy?

What's wrong?

Boss,

I need to talk to you.

I can't be your secretary.

I haven't finished the work I've started.

I don't want you to make me your secretary because you pity me.

I didn't choose you out of pity.

I chose you out of my need.

What do you want from me?

I want your capability.

I think you have great potential.

What do you think I want?

No, nothing.

Let's stop talking about work tonight and let the good times roll.

Here's your drink.

Thank you.

Umeshu straight.

Enjoy your drink.

I don't drink alcohol.

Really?

I think you do.

Are you going to drink it?

Or do I have to feed you?

No, I'm fine.

This desk is very new.

Ploy has been working here for ten years and still hasn't got her own desk.

How do you make merit, Noom Nim?

Can I get some of your merit?

I didn't do anything.

I'm feeling good just by sitting in this chair.

And look at this new Macbook.

Ms. Noom Nim.

I've put the documents on your desk.

Don't forget to send me your old files.

Okay.

Can I help you?

Come into my room.

Okay.

I arrive at the office at 8 every morning

so you have to get here at 7 to prepare my schedule.

These are the client folders.

You have to memorize everything inside and help me when you accompany me to events.

In the afternoon, you will prepare me some snacks.

Note that I don't drink 3-in-1 coffee.

Can you remember all that?

Yes.

Please repeat what I said.

Sorry. Can you go over it one more time?

I'm not like Ploy.

If you do a good job, you'll be rewarded.

But if you make a mistake,

you'll get punished.

I'm done talking. Why are you still here?

Please excuse me.

Noom Nim, this is for Boss to pick a model.

- I want this back as soon as possible. - Three pages?

Okay.

[I'd like a cup of coffee.]

Here you go.

Is it bitter again?

I put three spoons of sugar in it already.

Any more of it and you'll get diabetes.

I'm sorry.

Nim should go.

Wait.

What did you just call yourself?

Nim. It's what I call myself when I talk to someone older.

I'm sorry.

It's a slip of the tongue.

You can call yourself Nim. Why change?

I can't. No one does that at work. It's unprofessional.

Then only do it when you're speaking with me.

I like it. It's cute.

No, Nim...

I won't do it.

I won't.

Ms. Nim, book me a flight to Chiang Mai.

I'm going to see my Japanese client.

You got it.

Let me know when you send him to the gate.

I will.

He has only two bags.

My boss is going away for several days. Any plans for tonight? Count me in!

Here you go.

Get in.

Sorry?

You want me to send you to the airport?

No, you're flying with me.

Huh?

What?

I'm going to Chiang Mai for work and you're going with me.

But you didn't tell me I had to go.

I changed my mind.

I thought about it and realized I'm going there for work, not for vacation.

So if I'm going without my secretary, why do I even have one?

Okay.

Get in. We'll find you a ticket at the airport. I don't want to miss my flight.

Come on. Hurry.

Okay.

Start driving.

What about my clothes?

I have only one outfit.

You can wear mine,

or I can take you shopping for new clothes.

Guys, what should I do?

It seems like I have to sleep in the same room with my boss tonight.

I feel cold.

Can I hug you?

It's better to hurry up.

I'll quickly manage that for you.

So you bring that girl with you?!

Why is my heart beating this fast?

Or am I having a secret crush on my own boss?
