The Best Moment to Quit Your Job

Is she crazy?

So annoying!

Are you okay, deputy?

This is ridiculous, Yeonji.

She asked to see me to invite me

to her wedding but wants to split the dinner bill.

That's not right...

She's marrying a rich guy

and bragged about it for a whole hour.

Now she wants to split the bill.

I don't believe this.

- Are you listening to me, Yeonji? - Of course.

She shouldn't do that.

Whatever.

A girl just needs to be pretty and thin.

She got herself this rich boyfriend.

Stopped working, was always traveling overseas.

And now she never has to lift a finger to do anything.

It's so annoying.

You'll meet a great guy, too.

This is Jungjin Industry.

Yes, chief.

I'm almost finished with it.

I'm sorry.

I'm really sorry.

Yeonji.

What are you always so sorry about?

Just get it done and send it.

Don't make a reason to be sorry in the first place.

Right.

I just don't understand you.

You didn't give me the 30,000 won.

30,000 won?

Did you forget?

Tomorrow is Hye-young's birthday, and we were supposed to buy gifts.

Oh, that's right.

We haven't seen them in a while.

Try to make time for this.

Okay.

I should be there.

Namhee.

Yeah?

Do you have medicine for migraines?

No, I don't.

I feel like the closer we are to being done, the slower time goes.

We don't have much to do anyway, so we can leave early.

Are you finished, Yeonji?

Yeah, this is my last one.

We're working very hard, so things should get better, right?

It's no use.

Unless we manage to get ourselves a huge vendor company again.

Deputy Lim, we have an order for a draft to be sent today.

From where?

You know the ox bone soup place that opened a while ago?

They're opening another store.

They just sent an email.

But we're about to go home.

It's urgent. The store's opening the day after tomorrow.

And we can't really afford to leave early at a time like this.

If an order comes in, we do it.

What are we going to do?

The order's for 3,000 drafts

I want you to do it by today.

Get to work, Deputy Lim.

You do it, Yeonji.

- Deputy... - What?

Today's my best friend's birthday, so...

Really? That's not good.

I'm supposed to take my father to the hospital this evening.

I told you my father was sick, right?

Then you should go.

I'll do it.

I'd do it if it weren't for his hospital appointment.

I'm sorry.

That's okay.

I'll see you later.

I'm going to be late.

Go ahead and start eating.

Yeonji's going to be late.

Again?

Her work always comes before us, doesn't it?

Is she that busy nowadays?

She doesn't even check her messages.

I don't know.

It's like she does all the work in the world. And she passes out at home.

She never does house chores anymore.

You're like a married couple fighting.

Today's Hye-young's birthday. Knock it off.

Yeonji's completely lost her balance.

It's about her work. What can we do?

You worked nights a lot when you worked at that shopping mall, too.

Whatever.

Let's just drink.

- Happy birthday. - Happy birthday.

- Eat this. - Thank you.

Hye-young.

I'm on my way there. I'll go as fast as I can.

I'm sorry.

I'm telling you, you're so annoying.

What's so annoying?

Should we go for another drink?

2nd round?

- More alcohol? - Let's go.

I guess we can do that...

She's not answering?

Why doesn't she answer?

I have to tell her we're at a different place.

What if there's something wrong?

It probably has to do with her work.

- She'll probably call. - Right.

Clang!

One, two, three, four!

Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you.

Happy birthday, dear Hye-young. Happy birthday to you!

Blow it out.

Happy birthday!

Welcome.

- Where are the cold medicines? - It's over there.

What's wrong with you? Why wouldn't you answer your phone?

This is unacceptable, you know.

I know you're busy

but try to show at least a little bit of care.

You could've called.

Do you know how disappointed Hye-young was?

Hey!

Are you...

Are you okay?

Are you sick?

I'm sorry.

I have a cold.

Well...

No need to be sorry to me.

Just make sure you call Hye-young.

Work is important

but your friends deserve attention, too.

- Hello. - Hi.

I took my father to the hospital, thanks to you.

He got a great treatment, too.

Good.

Hello.

Deputy Lim, did you go home late yesterday?

What?

The owner of that place called me

to thank me for working on the order right away.

He's happy with what he got. Good job.

Yeah. The order's being processed.

Were you here until late last night?

Yes.

- I'm going to go, Yeonji. - Okay...

- Yeonji. - Yes?

You're getting a regular position next month, right?

Then you should work harder.

Right.

You haven't replied back since Hye-young's birthday.

I'm sorry I couldn't make it.

Is everyone doing okay?

As long as I get a regular position...

Minseo?

You're here.

I told you to come by 30 past. Why did you come so early?

I thought I should get here before you.

It's not a good thing if you have to wait.

It's totally fine.

Let's go.

- Miss Hye-young. - Yeah?

Can I have just one strawberry?

Just one.

You should try one, too.

It's delicious.

You remember the place at Itaewon we went to last week?

- The dessert café? - Yeah.

What about it?

After we were there,

it went on a show about gourmet places and totally blew up.

Really?

You know a great place when you see it.

It's just a coincidence...

I'm really looking forward to where we're going today.

It's at Cheong-dam-dong.

Don't you think it'll be too late when we get back?

Should we go some other time?

I think we'll be fine.

But you'd be tired after all the driving, right?

No, I'll be okay.

- Really? - Yeah.

- You won't be tired? - No.

Yay, we're going to a café in Cheong-dam-dong.

- Miss Hye-young. - Yeah?

I consider myself lucky.

Why?

My peers have a really hard time during their apprenticeship.

But I'm lucky, because I met you.

Everything okay?

Yeah.

Doesn't look like it.

I mean...

Someone I was friends with in high school

keeps contacting me these days

and acts like there's something going on between us.

A guy?

Just a guy friend.

Really?

- Bye. - See you later.

- Bye. - Bye.

We could try Garosoo Street, too.

- Minseo. - Sounds good to me.

What's that?

Excuse me for a second.

What are you doing here?

Let's finish our conversation.

Hold on.

- I'm so sorry, Miss Hye-young. - Huh?

That guy just showed up and wants to talk to me.

Go ahead.

The café at Cheong-dam-dong.

Can we go there some other time?

It's fine. We'll go next time.

I'm really sorry. I promised to go with you.

I said it's fine. We can go there any time.

Really sorry, Miss Hye-young. I'll see you later.

Bye.

Let's go.

Why would you show up like this?

If I hadn't come...

Happy birthday, Hye-young!

Hye-young, happy birthday!

I was going to be the first one at midnight sharp...

So you see...

That's why he just showed up like that.

Do you think he's serious?

I don't know...

You think it's strange, too, right?

It is...

Although I'm not sure what to say...

What do you think of this?

Guys that age tend to act impulsively.

If he hasn't liked you for a long time

and just started having feelings for you...

doesn't that mean he could suddenly change his mind?

Right? It's weird, isn't it?

When he said he had feelings for me...

I thought he was doing a hidden camera prank.

I believe in love at first sight.

If you start having feelings for someone you've known for a while,

it could just mean you're lonely and want someone, right?

Are you free this evening?

This evening?

I'm having dinner with my friends...

It's nothing big...

I want you to come, if you can.

I'm actually supposed to meet him and continue our talk.

I see.

Miss Hye-young.

When was your last boyfriend?

Yeonji's going to be late.

Again?

Her work always comes before us, doesn't it?

Is she that busy these days?

She doesn't even check her messages.

I don't know.

It's like she does all the work in the world. And she passes out at home.

She never does house chores anymore.

You're like a married couple fighting.

Today's Hye-young's birthday. Knock it off.

Yeonji's totally lost her balance.

It's about her work. What can we do?

You worked nights a lot when you worked at that shopping mall, too.

Whatever.

Let's just drink!

- Happy birthday. - Happy birthday.

- Eat this. - Thank you.

How did it go with your friend?

She'll come eventually.

I think she'll be really late.

Let's eat.

- Minseo. - Yeah?

You asked me about my boyfriend, right?

Huh?

You asked when my last boyfriend was.

Yeah.

I'm...

Never mind.

Let's talk later.

It's annoying when people cut themselves short, isn't it?

You're funny.

Miss Hye-young.

Yeah?

Make sure you tell me later.

I'll see you inside.

I told you not to crouch your shoulders.

Hye-young.

Come here. Have one.

Hye-young.

I'm sorry about your birthday...

- I was... - It's okay.

It was because of your work.

I'll have another birthday next year, anyway.

- I'm sorry. - I told you it's fine.

But Yeonji...

Work, regular position, they're all important.

- But... - I know.

Yeonji.

Let's...

not give up today's happiness for tomorrow's.

I...

don't have anything to be happy about now.

So for now, I'm going to work hard...

and be happy later...

I appreciate everything you've done here.

This isn't our final goodbye.

We will meet again.

Let's work extra hard, so we can fill their places.

So we can ensure we'll meet again.

President Jung.

Why me?

Why does it have to be me?

Why me? Why?

- Why! - Ma'am, please stop.

- Please let go. - Why me?

You shouldn't do this, ma'am.

Why me? Why?

Are we here already?

I fell asleep.

You're tired from driving, right?

We went all the way to Gangnam.

It's okay.

I'll see you later. You should go, too.

I'll walk you home.

It's okay. You should go.

Goodnight.

Minseo!

Is there something you want to say?

What is it?

It's nothing.

You must be tired. You should go home.

I'm going to go. I'll see you tomorrow.

This is Jungjin.

Yes, chief...

Yes. Okay, got it.

- Deputy. - Yeah?

Did the chief ask for something in the morning?

He's angry he hasn't gotten the invoice list yet.

Oh, right.

It's this one. Take this to him.

Sorry?

I'll take care of that.

What are you doing?

Here's you asked for in the morning...

What took you so long?!

I asked for this in the morning, and you're bringing it now?

- Seriously! - I'm sorry.

You can't keep doing this!

Never mind, just go!

I'm sorry.

It's fine.

I'll text you later.

That didn't take long.

Finish checking this.

Yeonji?

Yeonji.

Yes, deputy.

I'll do that.

What's that sound?

Nothing.

Do you mind taking down your laundry?

There's no room for mine.

Okay.

I did the recycling, too.

Did you check the order email?

No, I've been working on a draft.

Check the email, and start working on that order.

What about this one?

Just email me what you've done. I'll take care of it.

Thank you.

Glad you know.

It's complicated, isn't it?

You have to do things like that to get good.

Right...

You know we have a company dinner today, right?

Pardon?

I told you about it.

You should pay more attention to what's going on in the company.

Okay...

Both of you have to come today.

- The factory's coming, too. - Okay.

Let me have the order list.

We have a company dinner today?

Didn't I tell you?

We just fired people, and the atmosphere is pretty depressing.

I guess this is a way of making up for that...

We're going to eat a whole ox today.

Let's all cheer up with this.

Come on.

Hold on.

- We have a problem. - Huh?

What is it?

Remember Yeong-gwang Church?

They want us to do three more drafts with different bible verses.

They want it right now.

What about the dinner? Tell them to wait until tomorrow.

This is bad...

Do you want me to do it?

Will you?

Yes.

I'll work on it at the office, and let you know when I'm done.

- Okay. Good luck. - Alright.

Yeonji.

It's already been three months, right?

Yes...

I'm supposed to give you a regular position now.

I really wish things were better at this company.

Right.

I want you to hang in there, okay?

Got it.

Let's go inside.

- President, come! - Go ahead.

Come on, let's go.

Let's go in.

After you.

Hello.

"Leave now with Today Tour"

You now have a regular position here.

- Congratulations. - Thank you, President.

Peak season starts this month, so we'll be getting a lot of orders.

I hope you don't mind working nights more.

Okay.

This is your business card!

Thank you.

I'm promoting you early so you'll work harder, okay?

Okay.

One for you. And one for me.

- I'm going to go visit Woojin. - Okay.

I'm glad we have a contract with another vendor company.

Otherwise he would've put off promoting you as much as he could.

Right.

- Your salary will be smaller. - Sorry?

After the four insurances, your salary will be cut a little.

I see.

Yeonji.

Are you glad you got a regular position?

I wanted this so badly...

But it's so unreal I don't feel anything.

There's nothing special about it.

It's just an excuse to give you more work.

"Work contract"

Planning Office Designer Kim Yeonji

Hello?

Hello?

Yeonji, is that you?

Yeah...

Are you doing okay?

Yes...

Mom.

Yes, Yeonji.

I got a regular position.

Really?

Congratulations, honey.

I'm proud of you.

I'm a planning office designer for Jungjin Industry.

That's great.

Yeonji...

Come home now.

I miss you so much.

Okay, mom.

I'll call you again.

Bye.

Alright, I'll be waiting.

You've worked so hard.

I got a regular position.

Come home in the evening.

Let's celebrate.

Namhee.

Namhee.

Don't try to make it perfect.

It's not that big a deal.

You're not changing the world

or growing this company.

What are you doing?

Why should I be sorry...

for being myself?

I'm sorry.

Please stop this.

This is too much for me.
