KKULBEE EDUCATION

-Guys, I need you to focus. -Okay.

-I want all your eyes on me, okay? -Got it!

The goalie goes here, right?

-Yes! -Yes!

You'll all go on the offensive. I'll be the only one back there.

Start driving the ball from here.

Travel across the field with it.

-Okay. -And then,

let it hit the net.

-Easy, right? -Yes!

Here's our strategy.

There's not much to it.

There'd be a goalie, right?

-Yes! -Yes!

Drive the ball across the field,

find a suitable position,

and kick the ball…

to hit the goalie.

-Why? -Why?

Think of this as dodgeball, okay?

-Okay! -Okay!

On three.

-Let's do this! -Let's do this!

-Let's go! -Let's go!

Let the game begin!

Kids, let's keep it chill.

Get it going. That's it!

Trying too hard makes you look lame.

Come here! Well done!

Great job, kids!

To the side!

Shoot!

There we go! Well done!

Yes, that's it!

Atta boy!

That's what I'm talking about!

All right. We're playing dodgeball here.

Here we go.

Don't come near me!

Aim for his stomach!

That's it!

Since our team lost the game,

the snacks are on me.

-Let's go wash our hands. -Okay.

Let's go!

This is odd.

We won, but it feels like we lost.

Guys, let's go!

Wait for me!

Great job. Go wait for the snacks.

There we go. Wait over there.

Well done. Go wait for the snacks.

Come here.

Let's dry your hands.

Gosh, they're cold.

Mister, let's play C&R next time.

What's C&R?

Cops and robbers!

Hey, he can't be a cop.

Oh, right.

What do you mean I can't be one?

You're here because you did something bad.

Aren't you spending time with us as your punishment?

Did you not have fun playing soccer with me earlier?

I had fun!

You had no idea we were playing dodgeball.

I had a blast too.

How could spending time with you guys be punishment?

I'm only here because I was good. This is my reward.

-Really? -You bet.

So enjoy the snacks and let me play cop.

I'll catch all of you!

All right. Go wait for the snacks.

-Okay. -Good.

-Hello. -Hello.

Ms. Yeon?

Ms. Yeon.

I didn't expect to see you again.

What brings you here?

Secretary Yeo's out buying snacks.

I have something to ask you.

Me? What is it?

Why didn't you tell me

that Ha-jun wrote hate comments too?

Why did you stay by my side the other day?

Why do you keep reading my novel?

Why do you…

Ms. Yeon?

Why do you keep…

Do you like me?

What?

Huh?

Oh, no.

What did I…

say just now?

You asked me if I like you.

I mean…

That's not what I was trying to say.

Do you like me?

I'm sorry.

Don't be. I'm the one who misunderstood--

I do like you.

I'm sorry

for liking you.

I know I have no right to like you

and that it's shameless of me to do so,

but I've fallen for you, Ms. Yeon.

That's amazing.

To think something I write in my stories could actually happen.

Two people who started off as enemies fell in love with each other.

So what happens to us now?

Nothing.

Our story ends here.

So the feeling's mutual?

-Sorry? -You just said,

"Two people who started off as enemies

fell in love with each other."

Well, that was…

I wouldn't go that far.

Let's just say I realized you weren't so bad.

That's all I need.

Please give me a chance.

I swear I'll treat you well.

Don't your novels all have happy endings?

I'll never have

a happy ending.

Ms. Yeon Bo-ra!

Ja-yeon?

What are you doing here?

The thing is…

Why did you call her Ms. Yeon Bo-ra, sir?

-Secretary Yeo. -Ha-jun.

Ja-yeon.

Yeon Bo-ra.

So you're Yeon Bo-ra?

No, that can't be right.

No!

-No way. -Please give us our snacks!

-No. -Give it to us!

-Come on! -Give it to us!

-It can't be true. -Me too!

Wait. I'll pass them along.

You're heading home, right?

You can drop me off over there.

But it's so cold--

Cold or not, I can get home on my own.

Are you mad at me?

It's all because of you.

Ha-jun found out I'm Yeon Bo-ra!

And I had to confess my feelings

because of you.

Just let me drop you off at home.

You live with Ms. Son, don't you?

I should have her number here.

SEARCH DESTINATION

HAENGYEON-DONG

Starting navigation.

I'll delete it once I drop you off.

Suit yourself.

I won't be there much longer.

Didn't she have a housewarming recently? Are you all moving so soon?

No, just me.

I can't live with her anymore.

I guess that's understandable. She's newlywed, after all.

INTERNATIONAL CALL FROM CANADA

-So what was it anyway? -What do you mean?

The thing you wanted to tell me.

Right.

What was…

your father like?

Father?

You mean my dad?

I've never heard you talk about him.

And your mother…

I mean, I've only heard about her.

Would you rather not talk about him?

No.

He's off-limits in this house.

All right. I won't bring him up again.

We're all set.

Hang it up.

We're here already.

Thank you for the ride.

No problem.

Ms. Yeon!

Can't I be your friend

or even just a conglomerate you know?

I could help with your writing.

That'd be too painful for you.

Knowing that you don't deserve to be around someone

but still staying out of guilt to repay their kindness.

It's really rough.

So don't do it.

It sounds like you've had experience.

Goodbye.

MOTHER

Yes, Mother.

What?

The curtain…

There we go.

Aren't we too close together

in this confined space?

Why are you still--

Where's Kim Ji-uk?

Sorry?

You said your mind's only attracted to what your body is.

And you said your mind and body are one.

We're not even officially dating yet.

Are you sure about this?

I want to respect your principles.

Mr. Bok?

Mr. Bok?

Mr. Bok Gyu-hyun?

You.

Are you really…

My father…

My father…

You're not Kim Ji-uk.

You're Bok Ji…

Are you the chairman's son born out of wedlock?

Answer the question!

Who on earth are you?

I'm Kim Ji-uk.

And I was born without a father.

Oh, no, Mr. Bok.

Please just talk it out.

I'm not in the mood to joke around.

Answer the question.

Are you Chairman Bok Gi-ho's

hidden son?

I suggest you ask him instead.

I know nothing.

How could you not have known

that you were a child of an adulteress?

Watch your mouth.

You should've watched your actions then.

How dare you

try to steal my place right under my nose?

I didn't.

I was threatened to join Kkulbee and I only recently found out who--

So you knew everything!

But you still feigned ignorance around me.

Leave my company.

Got that?

That goes for you too.

Mr. Bok.

Why am I being dismissed?

Excuse me, Mr. Bok!

I had my hopes up for a moment.

But in the end,

it seems I'll forever be a villain to you.

Why would he dismiss you too?

Don't worry. I'll do whatever it takes

-to save you from-- -"Whatever it takes"?

There's only one way out of this mess.

You have to take over Kkulbee

and overthrow Bok Gyu-hyun.

EPISODE 9

Father!

Did you do this?

Go back inside, Gyu-hyun.

You don't have the right to…

Mother!

Jeong-a!

Don't!

Please, not that one.

You know its story, don't you?

I jumped through hoops to get it and poured my heart into it.

I could say the same about Gyu-hyun.

How dare you bring in a child you had out of wedlock into the company?

I told you that it was for his sake!

You had a child out of wedlock and had me find out this way for my sake?

By making him an employee at my company?

I made my decision as a businessman, not as your father.

I wanted a son steeled by competition, not coddled like some houseplant--

Shut up!

Jeong-a?

You go through the trouble to prune your stupid plants

but deny my son an easier life?

I'm cutting off everything you've grown.

No, Jeong-a!

Cut my head off instead. Here!

Your head?

I mean, hair. The hair on my head.

You clearly said head.

Jeong-a.

Jeong-a.

I don't know my father.

According to my grandmother,

he was an asshole who wouldn't even claim his child.

Who knew that asshole would be Chairman Bok?

So that's why…

My team will be defending Ms. Son and Mr. Kim.

I thought they were looking out for me because I was their key talent.

Hold on.

Bok Gi-un's a nepo baby.

I heard the owner's entourage

requested the list of applicants at every step of recruitment.

So Bok Gi-un isn't a nepo baby?

Unbelievable.

And he dared to report me?

Okay. Bye then.

There always have been rumors about a child born out of wedlock,

but why did it have to be him?

How's your mother?

She's shocked,

but it seems they haven't informed her family yet.

They didn't cross the line at least.

Not yet, anyway.

I'm sorry.

It's not your fault.

Still, I wish I had known earlier.

Then I wouldn't have gotten you tangled up in all this mess.

Ji-uk.

Come lie down.

So? Is it comfortable?

Yeah.

I'm glad to hear it, Your Majesty.

How is your royal heart?

You should look into your heart as well

and see if you're okay.

Well…

What are you doing?

Ji-uk,

I'm a bit heartbroken.

You were forced to join Kkulbee

at the threat of some unknown blackmailer,

but there I was, freaking out and making a fuss about getting caught.

I can't imagine how hard it must've been for you.

When we met the chairman at the hotel,

you had no one to confide in.

I know it's belated,

but tell me.

How did it make you feel?

I was sad.

Because you met your father?

I've always hoped…

to become an indispensable person.

Someone who's useful and helpful.

That doesn't mean I wanted to be used by others.

But that's how I ended up.

From my birth to the rest of my life,

everything has been out of my control.

I find that dejecting

and sad.

I wanted to be someone useful to you.

-Ji-uk. -I'm scared

you'll suffer because of me.

Start crying or something so I can comfort you.

Give me a second.

Not scared now, are you?

I'm here as your partner.

No more secrets between us, okay?

I'm still scared.

Is that why your ears are red?

Ji-uk,

let's leave tomorrow's worries for tomorrow.

Okay?

Okay.

No more secrets between us, okay?

Hae-yeong.

Ja-yeon.

Hey, you're here.

Ja-yeon's upstairs.

You seem fine.

I thought you might need a drink.

Alcohol won't solve anything.

Then what could?

"Labor Standards Act"? Are you preparing because you might get fired?

I won't get fired.

Let that damned Fork-gyu say that I'm fired all he wants.

That won't threaten me.

The 21st-century laborer has the Labor Standards Act on their side.

I'll hold out and stay on until the very end.

You seemed ready to take over Kkulbee over text.

I can't beat a conglomerate, can I?

Be guided by your head and not your heart

if you don't want any losses.

What about your partner? Is he okay?

I think so.

It's good that he's tough.

That's what makes me sadder.

My heart goes out to him.

Do you like him?

-What? -Isn't it weird?

You hate suffering losses, but you're taking his side.

Divided we will fall

Shaken we will fall

His life has been rough as it is. You're going to make it worse.

His mom and Chairman Bok are to blame for that.

I hope they both go to hell.

Parents are usually off-limits, but I guess nothing can hold you off.

Come on, giving birth doesn't make you a parent.

It's a crime to bring a life into this world irresponsibly.

Our comrade's promise shall be kept

Even if they split our skulls

Divided we will fall

I had my hopes up for a moment.

But in the end, it seems I'll forever be a villain

to you.

Don't worry.

Hey, Ms. Cha.

I have to admire how resilient Hae-yeong is.

Fork-gyu or whatever his name is should be worried.

What's wrong?

Is something else bothering you?

Not really.

I'm just worried about resuming the series.

Don't whine, Ms. Successful Writer.

Rest up today and start tomorrow.

Now, have a drink.

You're so clumsy.

What's wrong with me?

PREGNANCY NOTEBOOK

EXAMINATION RESULTS 3 WEEKS

Ms. Cha.

I took contraceptives.

But I had to switch the make because of the side effects.

They both used condoms.

Isn't that worse?

You don't know whose it is.

Don't tell Hae-yeong.

What are you going to do?

Have you…

made up your mind?

Yeah.

Ms. Cha,

you're a good person.

Whatever you decide to do won't ever change that.

But here's the thing.

We both know

the kind of hell

unprepared parents create.

I know you're not that kind of person.

I know full well that you're good.

I hear you.

I know what you're trying to say.

I'm sorry.

I wish I had better things to say.

It's okay.

Don't apologize.

It's all right.

You look especially sharp today.

I put in some effort

since it's my last time going to work with you.

RESIGNATION LETTER

-You're quitting? -Yes.

I've already been the unwanted presence

who ruined someone else's life,

and once was more than enough.

I don't want to repeat the experience.

As I said, it's not your fault. It never has been.

I know,

but none of this is Mr. Bok's fault either.

Anyhow, who hands in a resignation letter in person these days?

-Isn't this how you do it? -You're supposed to submit it online.

I see.

I'll talk to Mr. Bok.

-I'll tell him I'm quitting-- -Do you think

I'll be safe if you quit?

This is a clear sign

that the asshole CEO is set on firing me too.

Good morning, sir.

-Hello, Mr. Bok. -Hello, Mr. Bok.

-Good morning, Mr. Bok. -That son of a bitch.

Mr. Bok.

Mr. Bok Gyu-hyun!

I need to speak to you.

Mr. Kim, please contact me to make an appointment with…

I'm curious.

It's about my family.

Ji-uk.

You want to talk here?

That's right.

Go ahead if you're prepared to go all the way with me.

Kim Ji-uk.

I'm divorced.

"Divorced"?

What?

Ms. Son and I got a divorce.

CRITICAL ERROR

I'm divorced.

What?

Ms. Son and I got a divorce.

So you two…

are no longer married?

Ji-uk.

Now,

Son Hae-yeong…

isn't between us anymore.

So you two are no longer married?

Son Hae-yeong…

isn't between us anymore.

RESIGNATION LETTER

I'll quit

as you want me to.

In exchange,

please cancel Ms. Son's reassignment.

She has nothing to do with this.

You expect me to believe that you're divorced already?

You saw my rooftop room yourself.

We did get a divorce,

but I had nowhere to go.

You two seemed pretty affectionate for divorcees.

-That's because-- -If you wanted to lie,

you should've removed your ring first.

At any rate, your resignation isn't what I want.

Then…

What did you just say?

Send him abroad so he can never come back

just like his mother.

That's way out of line.

-Let me take care of-- -"Out of line"?

And this indignity I'm facing isn't?

That's not what I meant.

He just got married and his wife is his only family.

Then we can use that woman.

Mother!

If you're going to strike anyway, do so without any mercy.

Or your enemy will only come back stronger.

I sincerely hope

you won't let me down again like your father.

Your existence itself

is trouble and a ticking bomb for the company.

Leave the country quietly.

And then what?

Don't come back.

Forever.

Divorced?

23RD COHORT GROUP CHAT

-Mr. Bok Gi-un. -Yes?

What's so interesting?

Things are crazy right now.

Apparently, the reason behind Ji-uk and Ms. Son's divorce is…

What are you up to, Ms. Son?

I'm preparing the handover material

for you, Mr. Ahn.

FORK-GYU, YOU ASSHOLE! GO SCREW YOURSELF

Hae-yeong, I realize this isn't the best time to ask,

but if you're "divorced,"

is your fake marriage…

over now?

I don't follow.

What fake marriage?

What?

You told me at the orphanage that it was a fake marriage.

Me?

I never said that.

How could you fake-marry someone?

But the orphanage director didn't know Mr. Kim was married,

and you didn't let me tell her.

-Because we were divorced. -What?

We already got a divorce.

Why would I tell her he got married when she was none the wiser?

That would be ill-mannered of me

to my ex-husband.

You know, I'm freaking

tired enough as is preparing the material for you.

-So can you leave? -Right, okay.

Damn, the good judgment and quick wits.

I'm amazing.

I mean, I'm obviously a great talent.

And he dares fire me?

That fucking bastard.

You wanted to see me, Ms. Gong?

Mr. Ahn.

I'm only asking you this

hoping that it wouldn't be true,

but you didn't have anything

to do with Ms. Son's demotion, right??

Please, Ms. Gong.

Obviously, I trust you didn't, but the rumor mill is already churning.

Ultimately, you benefit from it the most.

Take my friendly advice and watch yourself for the time being.

I will.

-Tae-hyeong. -Oh, jeez!

I'm pregnant.

I'm five weeks in.

Really?

Are you serious?

And you're telling me that here?

I found out in a bathroom too.

Wait up, Hui-seong.

Five weeks, huh?

Yeah.

Five weeks.

If we go back five weeks…

-Isn't it mine? -That's five weeks from my last period,

not from its conception.

But don't women just know? I hear their gut tells them.

If we did, we'd be fortune-tellers and not pregnant ladies.

How would I know what the guy doesn't?

-Stop looking at it. -What’s wrong?

Do you have any idea how anxious I am?

The audition is coming up,

and I had to take a pregnancy test and go to the hospital.

I'm losing my mind,

worried that surgery might affect my breathing and vocalization.

Are you being indifferent because it's happening to someone else?

"Someone else"? How can you say that?

-It's not like that. -Then what is it?

My mom

had a dream about a pig last week.

I thought it was a lucky dream and bought a lottery ticket,

but I didn't win.

Maybe it was a conception dream.

If it was…

We had an agreement, remember?

If something like this were to happen,

we'd all take responsibility so no one person has to.

-Hui-seong. -I'll let you know the surgery date.

Leave the country quietly and don't come back.

Forever.

What if I don't want to?

What if I refuse?

I'll return the shock and pain my mother and I endured…

No, I'll multiply them and return them to the people you wish to protect.

-Mr. Bok. -It's your call.

Either ruin your mom's life and stay with Ms. Son

or leave on your own.

Having you around won't make Ms. Son happier.

Ji-uk.

Don't you get the craving?

Shall we?

Right now?

But this is a no-smoking area.

Who cares?

The company's screwing me over

and the country won't protect me.

Join me. I'll teach you how.

It's not worth teaching or learning.

You know what?

You can never forget the person who teaches you this.

Because you get hooked and resent them forever?

Who even taught you how to…

What?

What are those?

Fully legal bubble wands.

Oh, wow.

Am I right or what?

Yes, I think I might be addicted.

I meant about Mr. Bok wanting to fire me as well.

I knew it.

That petty bastard.

Ma'am.

Don't worry.

There are other companies out there.

Recruiters would go crazy for someone with my resume.

I'll get a job at a rival company and avenge you.

I thought saying we got divorced would solve things.

I also thought getting married would solve all my problems too.

I guess the saying, "The end justifies the means,"

was only popularized by those who achieved their means.

I'm sorry.

And our fake divorce story…

didn't fly.

Mr. Bok saw through it.

To tell you the truth,

our fake marriage was almost caught out.

By who?

Ahn Woo-jae.

What?

That little punk.

You'll be quite busy for some time managing both teams.

I could just commute alone--

Yi-lin.

Was it your doing?

I'm asking if you had

anything to do with Ms. Son's reassignment.

No.

So why was she demoted?

How should I know?

Why does that matter?

It all worked out for you.

How did it work out for me?

People were already saying I was leeching off of Hae-yeong's work,

and now she's chucked away.

What do you think they'll say?

Are you worried about people misunderstanding you

or Ms. Son misunderstanding you?

What?

Are you worried for her as a colleague

or as her ex?

Yi-lin.

How did you know?

Is Son Hae-yeong

your hidden past or your unspeakable present?

Is that why you had Hae-yeong--

What I'm wondering

is why she got divorced.

I had nothing to do with it. Nothing happened between us.

"Us"?

I mean…

Just go.

Where to?

Oh, right.

I picked up some bread, Ja-yeon! Come have some!

I'm home.

GYEONGJU BREAD

JEONJU BREAD

Another business trip?

Yeah, I'm off to Busan today.

What's with all these trips?

The decrease in the student population and preference for face-to-face consults

has Popcorn Experience Centers and Popcorn Houses practically crippled,

so they need to be shut down.

I see.

That doesn't sound too exciting.

I'm not traveling for work.

I'm traveling to buy bread.

Bye then.

-Safe travels. -See you.

Jeez, who's calling this early?

Passengers for the KTX soon departing for Busan…

Excuse me, this is my…

Wait, what?

Why are you here?

I'm in your seat because I'm yours.

Have a seat.

So this is why you hovered around me when I was buying tickets.

I realized that aside from the wedding, we hadn't done anything together.

You're busy on the weekdays and have to rest on the weekends.

So what's on your agenda?

-Let's go to the beach. -You've never been to the beach?

Get good food.

Good food?

Fine.

Just watch me then.

Watch me take in the beach and eat good food.

I suppose that could be…

-Are you uncomfortable at home? -What?

Is Ja-yeon mean to you when I'm away?

Is that why you're here?

What? It's not like that at all.

Speaking of which, Ja-yeon's been leaving the house a lot.

Doesn't she work from home?

Yeah.

She rarely leaves the place.

Is it because I'm making her uncomfortable?

Or is she…

seeing someone?

Ja-yeon?

-I doubt it. -The train will be departing soon.

Take a look around.

This is a new building, and the units are quite spacious.

The subway station's nearby as well.

Could I sign the contract right away?

Of course. You can even move in today.

I'll take the unit then.

NAM JA-YEON

I wired the money.

Can I register my move right away?

You're in a hurry. Is someone after you or something?

Can you spare me some time today, Ja-yeon?

HANBYEOL ORPHANAGE SHOTS FROM THE SITE

EVERYDAY LIFE

I've never once thought you were dirty.

I have no right to think so.

"No right"?

Did you also do something wrong, Lucifer?

I exist, for one.

But there's still a chance to become clean.

I'll return the shock and pain my mother and I endured…

No, I'll multiply them and return them

to the people you wish to protect.

Lucifer…

Sir, I'm taking a half-day off.

I'm aware. You can leave.

Don't you want to know who I'm seeing?

See you tomorrow, sir.

What kind of secretary takes a half-day off?

KKULBEE EDUCATION POPCORN HOUSE

Is this it?

Yeah.

Keep yourself entertained, okay?

If you go that way, the beach and…

I won't do, see, or eat anything.

It'll be dull and uneventful.

I'll try to be done soon.

I'll be quick.

I'll just rush things and be done.

What am I supposed to say?

Take your time and do your best.

Don't worry about me.

Hello.

I'm Manager Son Hae-yeong of Sales Management.

Oh, hello. I did get a call.

So are you the headquarters' inspector?

That's right.

I reviewed your consultation records, utilization rate, and recruitment rate.

And I'm afraid--

You want me to close this place down, right?

I started out as a Kkulbee Planner

and have worked for you for over 30 years now.

The headquarters have considered your predicament

and are willing to assist long-time keepers

with career transfer programs--

Switching a career at my age isn't all that easy!

Don't be so heartless.

Are you closing down?

Oh my, I didn't know you were here, ma'am.

Are you closing down?

Not right away.

Please have a seat. Come on.

It's all right.

I see you have a guest, so I'll just get going.

Come back tomorrow, ma'am.

Does she have a grandchild?

No, it's just that…

she wants to prevent dementia.

She started attending the senior citizen center to play cards,

but she found it boring

and couldn't fit in with the crowd.

She saw her grandchildren come here

and seemed to think it was preferable.

She's been coming every day ever since.

When this place closes down,

she'll be more distraught than me.

Hey.

Hi.

I hope I didn’t interrupt your work by asking to see you.

It's okay.

I was out anyway.

I also thought I should see you at least once.

"Once"?

It's uncomfortable for both of us.

It is for me, at least.

It makes me angry that you wrote the most hurtful comment.

I'm sorry.

But then again,

I'm so ashamed that I lied to you

about writing children's stories.

And I'm so embarrassed that you read my novel.

Not only that, I used your name…

Right.

I was embarrassed.

The male lead in your novel and I

couldn't be more different.

Thank you

for giving my name to your awesome character.

It's an honor.

And…

I'm really sorry.

For destroying the Ha-jun in your fantasy

and writing those hurtful hate comments.

I regret it so much.

You should be sorry, even if you were just following orders.

I know.

I should've refused.

I'm sorry I didn't.

Even if the comments weren't directed at me

but a writer you didn't know.

You're right.

I won't ever write hate comments again.

Please forgive me.

I hear the food here is great.

MURDERER

Bro!

-Wait for me, bro! -Okay.

I told you not to run.

Slow down.

Lucifer, we're friends who hung up laundry and piggybacked each other.

Consider me your brother.

Ji-uk!

Kim Ji-uk!

Having you around won't make Ms. Son happier.

-Enjoy. -Thank you.

Damn it.

What's wrong? Is it bad?

Isn't it amazing?

We should've had drinks last night.

This would've been so much better as a hangover cure.

It's so pretty.

Look at the bird.

-Do we go in to touch it? -I think so.

Here it is!

-It's so cute. -It's adorable.

It's the one from earlier.

-A stingray. -Look at the shark.

-Look, there's a stingray. -Why is it following us?

Can we touch the shell?

It has nostrils!

Look.

I can't tell which one's the flower.

Just as majestic as the bell.

We must be really high up.

It's so beautiful.

What's on your mind?

Is it the unforgettable person who taught you that no-good habit?

No, my mom.

When my dad passed away,

I moved out right away

and didn't live with her.

After about five years,

she said she wanted to move back to the countryside,

and that's when I moved back home.

If I had stayed with her back then,

played cards with her,

and read books together,

would she not have gotten dementia?

Ma'am.

I can't help but wonder sometimes

what her life was like

while I was away.

What would she have thought about?

I guess I'll never find out.

The KTX train leaving for Seoul…

By the way,

why won't you tell me?

Tell you what?

The person who taught you how to smoke.

The person you'll remember forever.

Only the addicted can't forget, but I've quit smoking.

So who was it?

My memory isn't that great.

I forget easily.

Then I guess you'll forget today easily too.

-Yeah. -What?

Since that's the case,

let's come back before I forget.

Okay?

I won't get to see this again once I move. I should take a photo.

I bought you a new phone.

I actually came in to leave this.

Do you keep in touch with my boss?

We're not that close.

It seems to me he feels differently.

I doubt he could contact you first,

given the situation with Ms. Son and whatnot.

Is he doing okay?

Your boss, I mean.

He's been acting strange lately.

He doesn't talk as much.

He's a jerk.

An utter jerk.

MURDERER

Ja-yeon would love the soup after having to eat all the bread.

Have a drink tonight so you can enjoy it more tomorrow.

Good evening.

Wait.

Why are you two together?

Do you know each other?

Do you know her?

Miss, I hope you're checking your mail regularly.

Excuse me?

I can't go into detail because of human rights and whatnot,

but make sure to check your mail and text messages.

RELEASED ON PAROLE

What's the matter?

Ja-yeon…

Ja-yeon.

Ma'am!

Isn't that Ja-yeon?

CODFISH SOUP

Excuse me!

Ja-yeon!

Are you okay?

Hae-yeong.

Who the hell are you?

Ma'am.

Ji-uk, call the cops on that bastard right…

Mr. Bok?

Have you lost it?

Of all the men to fall for, you fell for your hater?

Mr. Kim Ji-uk is the chairman's son born out of wedlock.

I doubt Ms. Son can regain her position at the company.

How dare you show up here?

Especially after what you did!

Stay away from Ja-yeon.

-Are you sure you're up for it? -What about you, Ms. Son?

Can you stay by Ji-uk's side?

I love you.

I love you, Hae-yeong.

You're leaving?

You've never held me in your arms and told me you loved me either.
