Director Kwon.

Hello. I'm Ji-yun Kang from Peoplez.

KANG JI-YUN

Have you had a chance
to look through my offer?

How bold of you
to pay me a visit all the way here.

But as I've mentioned before,

I'm not interested in finding a new job.

Any reason for your refusal?

Do you really think
that this offer is right for me?

It seems like
you don't know much about me.

I was told that your team is suffering
financial issues lately.

With that, I'm sure managment
may have concerns with your designs.

You're probably experiencing some
difficulties with your company.

Who are you to talk about…

And, off the record, they're signaling
for your resignation as well?

What are you trying to pull here?

You'd rather have me walk out on my own
before they fire me?

Even if I retire, I do it on this circuit.

Do you remember

how Designer Peter Kwon first started off?

THE 2ND AUTO DESIGN

How did you get a hold of this?

You submitted this to Auto Design
20 years ago.

You introduced an aerodynamic design

that can provide a race car experience
to even a family car.

And you became the youngest recipient
of the award.

It's all ancient history.

And the world has changed since.

That ancient concept of yours has
become the new trend for EVs.

BUSINESS PROPOSAL FOR
HANGUK MOTORS NEW CAR DESIGN

My client is preparing a new model
for their EV line.

Not just any model,

but one that'd bring innovation
to the entire brand.

And they're looking for someone
who can take charge of the project.

There's only one thing that
my client wants.

To be number one.

Of course, you'd have full liberty
and authority over the design.

I've already…

come too far down this road.

Then you're back where you started…

since the circuit is round.

Why not start from a new beginning?

The glory from your past won't come back.

Change is always scary.

But you'd fall behind
if you shy away from it.

I'll be waiting for your call.

Innovation of urban driving!

A space to connect with the driver.

Introducing Head Director of Pamir 30,

Mr. Peter Kwon!

Hanguk Motors' newest model
has been released.

Director Peter Kwon, whose recent move
to Hanguk Motors shocked everyone,

is gaining attention with his
first work of design there.

The recently released Pamir 30,
a new line of EV

that includes the design dynamics
of a Peter Kwon racing car

and the advanced technology
of Hanguk Motors,

introduces a new type of family car.

We now have Ji-yun Kang from Peoplez
with us.

The more I talk with her,
the more I become interested

in the lives of headhunters.

Do you have certain criteria
when recruiting people?

Someone worth their buck.

Try putting a price tag on yourself.

How much am I worth?

Do I deserve my paycheck?

That's pretty vulgar.

Do you really believe that you can
put a price on a person's worth?

If it's vulgar to put a price
on yourself in a capitalist society,

then what is it to be not worth your buck?

It's a crime.

I'd choose being vulgar

over being a criminal.

It's not easy being the CEO
of a booming company.

Head to the office.

Who are you, miss?

I'm sorry.

Who are you?

What is going on here?

You gave me a scare.

Look at you, Kim.

You must have a silver tongue.

I'm so mortified.

Didn't I tell you to get me a secretary?

How could you mix up a car
that you ride in every day?

You never get confused
with recruitment candidates.

Candidates are my clientele
while I'm the client of my car.

Why would I spend my time memorizing it?

So, when is my secretary coming in,
Ms. Seo?

I wish it was that easy,

but we're running thin on applicants.

Do you have any idea how many quit
this year alone?

Two?

Three?

I don't have enough fingers
to count them all.

It makes no sense
that you can't find anyone.

This is a search firm, after all.

HEAD HUNTING COMPANY THAT
FINDS EMPLOYEES FOR A COMMISSION

Ms. Kang,

The new Crack AI Developer position
has reopened.

What should we do?

Isn't that the client that was
difficult last time we worked together?

We need more than a month.

If they want to find a good candidate,
tell them to give us more time

and not to sign with other firms.

- Right away, ma'am.
- Ms. Kang!

This is the updated long list
for the promotion.

LIST OF CANDIDATES
TO BE REVIEWED

Narrow it down and share
the final draft to our clients.

- Yes, ma'am.
- Ms. Kang, the checklist is on the wall.

Yes, we've heard a lot about you.

Daniel applied for the MD position
at Spring Apparel.

He got it!

We did it!

DANIEL MD, SPRING APPAREL

1. YANG HO-JIN, WS ELECTRONICS,
HARDWARE ENGINEER RECRUITMENT

YANG HO-JIN

'METEOR FOLD' MASTERPIECE
CREATED AFTER DECADES OF FAILURE

YANG HO-JIN,
HANSU ELECTRONICS

Yang Ho-jin, wireless team chief.

A chief smartphone developer who started
in the semiconductor development team

and became the first person to lead
the wireless team at Hansu Electronics.

Packaging is crucial…

A symbolic figure who grew
alongside Hansu Electronics.

From third generation devices
to fifth generation devices,

he worked on nine different series.

There's no doubt he's managed
as a core worker.

That's why our clients offered a
handsome signing bonus.

SIGNING BONUS:
INCENTIVE GIVEN TO NEW EMPLOYEES

Which also means this is a very important
project for us to succeed in.

How was it then?

How did he react to our offer?

Didn't Mr. Yang take the offer already?

Did you get intel on the company
that's recruiting him?

Well,

we're still looking into it.

That's not going to cut it.

Do you have any idea how many
core workers we've lost?

I apologize.

Is there anyone who can secure
Mr. Yang to stay at our company?

I mean, anyone?

Why don't you let Mr. Yu handle it?

You mean Manager Yu Eun-ho?

Yes.

Thank you.

Hey, isn't that the manager
you were talking about last time?

- He's gorgeous.
- He's totally my type!

How did you know
I needed caffeine? Thanks.

It's not for you. Get one yourself.

- Whose is it then?
- I'm off to see Mr. Yang.

Wait, wait. Does this mean that you'll
be taking on Mr. Yang?

Mr. Song okayed it?

Dude, that's not…

Happy now? I'm off.

Wait. Hey!

- Hello.
- He's here.

Hello.

Hello.

Hello.

Excuse me.

Hello.

Hello.

- Hello.
- Hello to you too.

- Excuse me.
- Yes?

Is Mr. Yang in?

He's on leave today.

- On leave?
- Yes.

- Is it okay if I leave a coffee for him?
- Sure.

HANSU RING,
FINAL CONFIRMATION TEST!

March 6th.

That's today.

The person you are trying to reach is
unavailable. You will be forwarded…

HUMAN RESOURCES TEAM

PERSONNEL CARD

- Where are you off to?
- Tell the boss I'm off to see Mr. Yang.

You said he's not picking up his phone.
How are you planning on finding him?

Let's just say that I have a hunch.

Don't waste your time.

If he's meeting a headhunter on his
day off, he's through with this company.

Mr. Song assigned him to you to screw
with you, knowing you'd fail.

All the more reason to catch him.

Aw, come on…

At least tell me where you're going!

I'm sorry for calling you here.

It's nice and quiet.

It's nice to get some fresh air.

I'm sure you have a lot on your mind.

What seems to bother you the most?

I've worked at this company for 22 years.

It's not easy for people my age to take on
the challenge at another company.

I understand.

It's not easy to move jobs.

Especially for people who have
worked in one spot for a long time.

But there's no such thing
as a job for life.

You never know how things will change.

As you've seen
from this year's promotions,

Hansu won't be investing as much
into the hardware industry.

It'll be the one who conquers APs
that'll conquer the mobile industry.

Consistent research in packaging
is the only answer.

Our client is willing to invest
in your research

and support you with technical aspects.

You don't get many chances
to focus on your research

where your values are appreciated.

These are the conditions
that our client is offering.

I dare say this would be the best offer
you can get in the field.

All we need now is your decision.

I'm confident that this would be
worth trying.

It's not what you're trying
but who you're trying with that counts.

Mr. Yu.

Pardon me for interrupting.

How did you know I was here?

I knew that you come here often
when you need to unload.

I'm Yu Eun-ho from Hansu Electronics.

My apologies
if I've interfered with anything.

But Mr. Yang is a valued member
of our company.

Continue your conversation with her.

But please give me a
chance to chat afterward.

I'll be waiting.

- Sir…
- Ms. Kang.

I think we should wrap up here
for the day.

Let's continue later.

You should at least take this.

As for us, let's have a chat
back at the office.

I'll call you.

Well done meddling.

HR TEAM MANAGER
YU EUN-HO

Manager Yu Eun-ho.

Mr. Yang has had such an affection
for our company for decades.

Stop swaying him.

All you need to do is
pay the right price to keep him.

Moving to a company where

you can expand your career
and people recognize you.

That's the nature of the market.

Well, somethings just aren't so simple.

Far too delicate an issue for someone
who steals a core employee to understand.

I know that Mr. Yang didn't stick around
just for money.

There's something greater than
personal benefit or success

such as the value of a company,
or a thing called loyalty.

So cliché.

You'll soon experience
and come to learn that

the company never takes on full
accountability for the individual worker.

Let's not make the mistake
of running into each other again.

HANJU ELECTRONICS

Yu Eun-ho from Hansu Electronics.

RIBS, PORK BELLY

Look who's here.

Hurray, you came!

What is this?

Why are you all here?

I've brought more beer.

I've been waiting for you.

Mr. Yang finally arrived!

Just enjoy for the day

since all the development legends
are here.

- Please, sit.
- Come on, have a seat.

I'll grab more beer.

You'll spend the entire night away
doing that!

All right, fill your cups!

Here you go.

He looks so much better now.

All together, cheers.

- Cheers!
- Cheers!

- That hits the spot.
- Nobody goes home before me!

PASSION GALBI

Looks like your win, Mr. Yu.

All right.

Let's hear what you have to say.

Sir…

do you remember this?

Gosh.

How could I forget?

This is the first model I made
at the company.

I think it was Version 6 that you
found an error with at the last minute,

causing the development team
to pull an all-nighter.

Don't even start with that story.

What a nightmare that was.

I was afraid this little guy
wouldn't even get a chance to roll out.

That little guy is eight years old now.

You'd better make sure he lasts
throughout his teens.

The company still has so many stories
to write with you.

Complete the hardware
for the new series as well.

Unless your heart's in a
different place already,

please reconsider.

I'm sorry, Ms. Kang. I forgot that I had
an important meeting today.

Give me a sec, please.

Hello.

Of course, I'm on the way.

It's your first game, son.

Yeah, I'm almost there.
I'll be there soon.

Okay.

Let me drive you.

We can talk on the way.

Oh, would you?

Jeez, I…

I feel terrible asking you to drive,
let alone canceling our appointment.

I just can't afford
to further disappoint my son.

That's all right.

You should take a look
while you have time.

It's a new proposal.

Thank you.

My friends love the snacks you sent
from work!

You're the best, Dad!

- We love you, sir!
- Thanks for the drinks!

- We'll win the game!
- Thank you, love you!

Thanks, Dad!

Uncle Eun-ho!

You're the best uncle in the world!

We'll win for you, uncle!

We love you!

Hansu Electronics rocks!

SEOUL CITY'S YOUTH SOCCER MATCH

- Thank you so much, Ms. Kang.
- Not at all.

I'll give you a call.

- Sure, drive safe.
- Okay.

Eo-jin!

- Dad!
- Over here!

Dad!

- Dad!
- Whew!

Sorry I'm late, kiddo.

Thank you, Mr. Yu.

Ms. Kang. About me moving jobs,
let's call it off.

- For Mr. Yu!
- Cheers!

Congratulations!

Congratulations!

Congratulations, Mr. Yu!

Thanks to you,
we can walk around proud for once.

How did you change Mr. Yang's mind?

He proved that sincerity works.

In any case, this is a big win for us.

I guess this is the end of
Eun-ho's time in the dumps!

When he gathered all of the
old developers under Mr. Yang,

I literally cried.

You're overreacting.

I really did.

Sure you did.

We should have another round.

- Yeah!
- Grab your cups, and cheers!

- Cheers!
- Good work, everyone!

Well, this is festive.

Very nice.

You know, you could use this spirit
at work.

- Have a seat.
- Yes, sir.

You're all fussing over nothing.

Eun-ho didn't do this on his own.

Mr. Yang has got plenty on his part.

We gave him a great counter offer.

You lot don't know the half of it.

That was the bare minimum since
you've taken that much time off.

The rest of the members worked
their butts off while you were gone.

Don't tell me
you've all forgotten about it already.

Unbelievable.

Some do all the heavy lifting.

While others just reap all the rewards.

Raise your glasses. I'll pour you a round.

- Yes.
- Yes, sir.

- There you go.
- Thank you.

No need for formalities. Here.

Thank you, sir!

There you go.

Thank you.

There.

Mr. Kim, have some.

Yes, sir.

Okay.

Sir.

I will pour you a glass.

Here.

Yes, sir.

Now, let's toast.

Okay, cheers.

- Cheers.
- Cheers.

- Good work today.
- Great work.

- Are you okay?
- Yes, sir.

Careful, sir.

Have a good evening, sir.

Hey, Eun-ho. Hey!

Am I being unfair?

You should've expected this
when you came back.

Don't try to swoop in
as if nothing happened.

I haven't even started.

Let's go.

Good night, sir.

He's gone. You can get up now.

You want more drinks?

Yeah, it's kind of late.

See you.

Yeah. Go on, man.

You really can't get enough of her,
can you?

- Hi.
- Hey, you're here.

- I ran a little late.
- It's okay.

- How's Byeol?
- She's just playing.

Byeol, your dad's here!
Seo-jun, uncle is here.

Hey, Seo-jun!

- Dad!
- Byeol.

Rock, paper, scissors, shoot!

My little princess.

Daddy.

Guys, I feel left out now.

I know looking after children
is a job no one appreciates,

but others might get the wrong idea
that I've scolded them all day.

No way, Granny.

We do appreciate you.

See? I don't take it for granted.

Thank you so much as usual.

There's no one like you!

What is it?

And this is for Seo-jun.

You must be tired. Go on up.
Take this with you.

It's enough that you take care of Byeol,
you don't have to cook for us as well.

But you pay me.
I'm just doing what I'm getting paid for.

Well in that case, thank you.

- Have a great night.
- Good night.

- Good night.
- Good night.

- Bye.
- Bye, Byeol.

Take your bag with you.

- Take care of your stuff.
- Sleep tight and see you tomorrow.

- See ya.
- Bye.

- Bye, Byeol.
- Bye-bye.

- Good night.
- Bye.

- Sweet dreams.
- Bye.

- See you.
- Bye.

Stop eating.

He's so sweet.

Yeah, he's a good dad.

A good father usually
becomes a good husband.

Oh, don't talk such nonsense.

Seo-jun, let's brush your teeth.

What do you mean nonsense?

It'd be perfect for two single people
to rely on each other.

I have to ask,
why does Mr. Song hate Mr. Yu so much?

He's the best member of the HR team.

You don't get to be the youngest manager
by doing nothing.

Is it really because
of his paternal leave?

That's just too old school.

It's ridiculous.

Paternity leave is just an excuse.

He's getting revenge.

Before the paternal leave,

they were both preparing
for renewal of the management system.

It was a direct order from the Chairman
so Mr. Song poured his heart into it.

1 YEAR AGO

It's confirmed. We'll be taking over
the Human Resources System renewal!

- Really?
- He worked so hard that

we were expecting to outrun Mr. Kim

- Congratulations.
- …and get noticed by the boss.

But…

Let me just take this call.

After Mr. Yu went on paternal leave,
it all went down the drain.

Yes, ma'am. Is everything okay?

What?

Seo-jun's mom came today
and held an art class with the children.

And…

this is what Byeol drew.

Sir,

your daughter,

has rarely been talking lately.

Were you aware?

Are you out of your mind?

This is a direct order from the Chairman.

Our proposal even won against Manger Kim.

I'm sorry. I'll make sure to hand over--

You were the only reason
I pushed this project…

Eun-ho, I want you to reconsider.

You have no idea
what you're missing out on.

Once this is through,

the future's nothing but roses
for the two of us.

You can always go on paternal leave later.

Sir, actually…

Byeol is sick.

That's a pitiful excuse.

You think you're the only one
with a child?

Your kid being sick is not a big deal now.

It's not like your kid
is the only special kid in the world.

She's special to me.

Eun-ho!

You leave now,

don't even think about coming back!

As long as I'm here, you won't survive!

He was going to use Mr. Yu for the project

but that totally flopped.

And the project was passed over
to Mr. Kim.

Got bumped out of his promotion.

Jeez, that was one hell of a disaster.

He must've waited with gritted teeth
for revenge on Mr. Yu.

Eun-ho's life is quite hectic, isn't it?

Exactly.
Why did he have to get married so early?

With those looks!

How can his child
already be seven years old?

It's absurd.

He is so my type.

There she goes again.

How is it that we have so many girls
saying the exact same thing?

Eun-ho's a sly criminal, I tell ya.

Blame it on his face!

His face is guilty!

YELLOW PRINCESS

MY DAD IS A HERO

Time for breakfast, Byeol.

Miss Byeol,
what style would you like today?

Do whatever you like.

May I?

Then, number three it is.

You're so pretty.

Let's go.

Rock, paper, scissors, shoot!

I'm not gonna lose tomorrow.

Let's go! Seo-jun, wait! Seo-jun!

You'd better behave
in front of your teacher, okay?

Off you go! There!

Don't run in the hall! Don't run!

- Good morning.
- Good morning!

Hello.

Bye, Seo-jun.

- Bye
- Break a leg!

Bye, kids.

Woo-rim woke up early to meet Ju-mi today.

How diligent of him.

He has good taste in girls.

Look, look, look. Byeol's dad is coming.

- Where?
- Where is he?

- Hello.
- Hello.

- Hello, Mr. Yu.
- Hello.

Have a splendid day!

Hello.

Hello, Mr. Yu.

- Hi, Song-jin.
- Hello.

- I'm sorry.
- Are you all right?

Are you okay?

Yes.

Thank you so much.

Thank you! See you again!

Are you okay?

I don't wanna work.

Good morning, everyone! Aloha!

What?

What's going on?
What's with the grim faces?

Tell me.

What's going on?

It seems Jeong-nam lied
on his candidate's résumé.

Oh, no.

I'm getting film noir vibes.
What do you guys think?

Why did he do that?

I think it's horror.

It's gonna get noisy today.

It's not my fault.

I swear I didn't know.

If you didn't know the résumé was fake,
you're incompetent.

If you'd known and proceeded anyway,
you're not qualified to be a headhunter.

Which is it?

Look at me, Go.

GO JEONG-NAM

The name's Go Jeong-nam.

Fine. Honestly? If we
hadn't mentioned anything,

Hanguk Group would've never known.

It's not like
I completely fabricated the résumé.

It was just a bit of overstating things--

So you're not qualified.

You're the one who wanted more results.

You pushed and pushed for results--

Jeong-nam!

You had one achievement,
and that was two months ago.

It's been six months since you came.
You're still learning the ropes?

"Five years' experience as a headhunter.
Specialized in logistics.

Yearly performance, 15.
Excellent in client management."

Where is this guy that I hired?

Was this also overstated
the same way as your candidate's?

Mr. Go Nam-jeong!

It's Go Jeong-nam.

My name is Go Jeong-nam.

Go Jeong-nam.

Not once have you said my name properly.

You know what?

I don't work with underqualified people.

I won't be seeing you again.

Not here, nor any other search firms.

Ms. Seo will handle
the resignation process.

Oh, right, I had something to tell you…

Hello? Speaking.

Find a new candidate right away.

Confirm the JD
and bring the list up again.

INFO OF SKILLS REQUIRED
FOR THE POSITION

Since it's your ex-team member
who screwed up,

you clean up after him.

That's not it at all.
Even if we take that into account--

I need to talk with you.

Okay.

Did you check all the candidates
on the list for the Hanguk Group?

I believe you're the one in charge.

I tend to leave it to their free will.

It's not like they're children.

One has to do one's own chores.

Is that why you bluffed
on the candidate's résumé?

To freely conduct your job?

I feel so bad for them.

How bad they must've wanted better
results to fluff up the résumé like that.

Don't you know that the Hanguk Group
is our main client?

Would you take responsibility
if we lost them because of trust issues?

They're looking up other search firms
when we should be their sole contractor!

If we don't reach our monthly goal--

If we don't reach our monthly goal,

it's because you've lost
Mr. Yang from Hansu Electronics.

I wonder who it was
that lost that big catch.

Don't scare me like that!

I was raised cushy.

You know I don't like that kind of thing.
Why do you do this to me?

Treat me with some cushy respect.

I shouldn't have hired you.

Money's to blame. Money.

But because of that
you got the investment funds you needed.

And I got my freedom.

Isn't that right, Ji-yun?

Ugh, how exhausting.

She's so difficult.

I wanna go home.

Another paper cut?

I told you to be careful.

You lost a candidate,

decreased sales,
and, on top of that, a paper cut.

Nothing's working out, huh?

What. Did you decide to team up with Woo?

Here. This is the revised sales plan
for the month.

You just might make quota
if you work hard at it.

Bye.

HR TEAM MANAGER
YU EUN-HO

You must be the one bringing bad luck.

Didn't we have a meeting at 4 o'clock?

Why don't you start getting ready?

Yes sir.

I've sent a mail to you.

Do you mind checking them?

Um, sir.

Um, Mr. Song…

He said that you'd be preparing
meetings from now on.

Hand it over. I'll do it.

I was the printing god
when I first started working here.

MONTHLY MEETING, MARCH

You can leave now, Mr. Yu.

You don't need to attend.

It's not like you have a grasp
on anything around here.

I'm sure you didn't have time to adjust
after coming back from your long vacation.

Mr. Kim. Did you set up
the TF team members yet?

Have you contacted
any overseas specialists?

Well, um.

If we rashly scout professionals from
abroad, we might lose our brand's image.

Gathering talented members from within
should prove much more effective.

For example, Mr. An,
senior researcher from R&D Team 2.

He's more qualified
in renovative projects--

Mr. Yu!

You're driving me up the wall.

What do you think you're doing?

Does it look like I wanted your opinion?

Give me a break.

He'd be much more qualified,
according to Mr. Kim.

And he'll carry on with the presentation.

Let's start the meeting.

Can I have double chocolate, ice blended.

- With lots of cream.
- Okay.

I'd also like a salt bun,
a streusel, and a financier.

Of course.

What are you, a child?

What's with all the cream?

Look who's talking.

I quit smoking.

I need to get married.

Wow, how mature of you.

You're the one who got married, a child,
and a divorce all in your twenties.

I need to do at least one of them.

Are you okay, though?

No, I can't take this anymore.

I'm resigning today.

You're not even gonna stop me?

Come on now.

Byeol's tuition, living expenses,

your loan, retirement savings,

Babysitting fees, installment savings.

Should I go on?

I'd be a crazy fool if I quit now.

The biggest, craziest fool.

Come to think of it, you really do
like to be first at everything.

You're the first at everything
among our peers.

First marriage, first baby,

first divorce, first promotion,
and first paternal leave.

I applaud you, really.

But just don't be first to be fired.

It's not like I did anything wrong.

Yet it feels like I did.

Hey, wait here.

Ms. Kang, remember the company
that you recommended last time…

I'll call you back.

Mr. Yu, how are you doing?

- Yes.
- I'm sort of in the middle of something.

Sorry, bye.

Haven't we gone through this
a million times?

No one likes their CEO staying in
the office after hours.

Let's go. I'm starving.

I don't feel like eating.

This is why you don't.

This isn't food.
How many cups of coffee is that today?

Why are you such a nag.

Is it your divine will to die out here?

Come on.

Why are you so interested in what I eat?

It's just a meal.

You need to eat properly to stay healthy

and you need to stay healthy
to keep working as the CEO

so that I get paid.

I'm still paying off my loans.

You can't get sick or die until then.
Okay?

I processed Jeong-nam's resignation.

Jeong-nam? You mean…

You need to cut your employees some slack.

And call them by their actual name.

You memorize everything about your
candidates just by looking at the résumé.

Why is it that you don't remember
your own employees' names?

Is it intentional?

I don't have the energy to do all that.

I'm pretty fed up as it is.

Geez. Okay, look.

You need to show interest and affection in
your employees to keep the company happy.

Or you'll just drive them away
and end up being alone.

Not everyone in the world can be like you.

You gotta give trust and wait a bit
even when they make a mistake.

Give trust and wait,
and you'll fall behind.

Our employees are all a mess
because you're such a softie.

- You're the one I need to fire.
- Kang Ji-yun!

I didn't open this company
to raise people.

Let's just do our work.

- Why you--
- You said you need to pay off your loans.

I'm warning you,
you'll be left all alone in the end.

I'd still have money.

And what are you going to do
with all that money?

Do I need to do anything with it?

With money, it's always better
the more you have.

SLEEPING PILLS

Ji-yun.

Hey, Ji-yun.

Eun-ho, you really had no idea?

Mr. Yang went behind our back!

He resigned and moved
to a Chinese company!

A new project, a signing bonus,
the counter offer. He took it all!

He might have stalled
to get intel on the new project

to sell that information.

Find out where he's going. Hurry!

Eun-ho.
You really know nothing about this?

What do you mean?

I'm asking if you teamed up with Mr. Yang

and bought time for him to
gather information!

Well, if he's really gone
corporate espionage on us,

you'll have to take responsibility for it.

Brace yourself.

The person you are trying to reach is
unavailable. Please leave--

This is Yu Eun-ho.

Can you please give me a call
when you get this?

Ms. Kang, remember the company
that you recommended last time…

I'll call you back.

Dong-gi, can you give me the address

of the search firm
that tried to recruit Mr. Yang?

- Thanks.
- Doors are opening.

Darn it, I mixed it up again.

But what is he doing here?

Ma'am.

Ms. Kang!

Did you do it?

Did you get Mr. Yang to move to a Chinese…

Where is he now?

Let me get this straight.

You think I'm the one who
took Mr. Yang to China?

Don't you care about your candidates'
reputation or career whatsoever?

Is all you care about
getting your client and profiting from it?

Just how much are your fees?

Not chump change, that's for sure.

That's the money I get
putting their life on the line.

Ms. Kang!

If Mr. Yang moves to China now,

his career will be over and he won't
ever be able to come back to Korea.

Is this how you headhunters work?

- Have you no basic morals?
- Look here, Mr. Yu Eun-ho.

I advise you to watch your mouth.

I'm at the airport now.

I'm so sorry to do this to you, Mr. Yu.

Hey! What the…

I'm not done talking…

Mr. Yu Eun-ho!

Mr. Yu!

Hey!

No, sir.

I don't recommend it.

You need to be able to keep your career.

If you move to China now,
people will start to assume things.

I advise you not to make any decision
you'd regret as an engineer.

I should've listened to you, Ms. Kang.

You need to remain strong.

That's the only way
for another chance to com.

Ms. Kang, remember the company
that you recommended last time…

I'll call you back.

Just how much did they torment him?

Someone keeps ruining
the reputation of headhunters.

You can always make an excuse for moving
to another company.

Even rats can bite cats
when they're cornered.

What else can you do
when there's no way out?

Yes.

Headhunters

are not all the same.

Okay.

Mr. Yang.

Mr. Yang!

Mr. Yang!

Mr. Yang.

I'm sorry.

Mr. Yu?

Technology leak?

Maybe if I even had a look at it
could I leak it.

I was left out from the project.

I thought they needed me.

Turns out that I was only a traitor

who tried to move companies.

They probably thought it was better
to have me than let me go,

even if I was just wasting time.

I'm leaving because I want to work.

I can't be a freeloader
walking on eggshells all the time.

What would my son think of me?
I just couldn't do it.

A misunderstanding…

I can't help it if that's the case.

I don't…

have any desire to work in Korea again.

I'm…

I'm sorry.

I had no idea.

No. I'm sure you just did
what you were told.

I'm rather concerned.
I hope this doesn't backfire on you.

Don't push yourself too hard.

To the company, we're merely

disposable to them.

It's our fate to be tossed away
after we've been used.

New parts

are not that hard to find.

Yeah.

Dude, where're you at?

The internal investigation team is here
taking computers, notes, and everything!

What's going on?

Did you meet Mr. Yang?

Mr. Yang already departed.

Eun-ho.

I think this is the work of Mr. Song.

He meant to do this.

He was just waiting for the chance
to get back at you.

Eun-ho? Hey!

Are you listening?

Eun-ho! Yu Eun-ho!

DISCIPLINARY TERMINATION

Ms. Seo.

Ms. Seo?

Ms. Seo!

It's just not right.

Did you double-check it
before handing it over to…

Ms. Seo.

- I sent it. Please check again.
- Ms. Seo.

- I'm sorry.
- Coming.

WILL I EVER BE ABLE
TO GET OFF WORK?

There's someone here.

Ms. Seo. Last month's IT client list
that I organized, where is it?

Also Ms. Seo, you need to reprint
this month's sales report.

- Open up.
- I'm not Ms. Seo.

Come on, Mi-ae.

Ms. Seo Mi-ae.

Come on.

Ms. Seo.

Ms. Seo Mi-ae.

Mi-ae.

Yeah?

Okay.

Stop calling me.

You're driving me crazy and I can't
concentrate on any of my work.

What is it this time? What?

Where's my phone?

Where is it?

I hear it somewhere. Where is it?

- Where is it?
- It's vibrating.

Gosh.

Gosh, why is this in here?

Unbelievable.

They agreed to remove the CEO
of SP Investment Securities.

We have to make a move
before it goes public.

And as for Mr. Kim…

- Hey.
- Ouch!

Contact Mr. Kim and set up a meeting ASAP.

M-ae, where's my bag?

You bag's over there.

- Take it with you.
- I'll call you later.

Seriously, wow!

You're lucky you're so good at your job
or you'd be dead meat.

Jeez!

Wait a minute. This messes up
her whole schedule for the day.

Oh, fun.

Oh, the joy.

Anybody free today?

It has to be today.

We have got to meet up today.

I mean it, today!

Yeah, we definitely have to meet up today.

No one's here, I see.

I guess I'm not going home again today.

My lovely dear Ms. Kang.

Kyung-hwa, put your head on straight.

Geez.

GREAT WORK, JI-YUN
MI-AE

Ms. Kang,
let's not change your schedule this time.

I beg of you.

Oh, what are you doing back?

- I have some files I need to check.
- No.

You look like a zombie. Go home!

Eat something nice, get some sleep.

Do what people do.

Do what ordinary people do.

You wanna look at the files with me?

Ms. Kang, good night.

See you.

Must've caught something.

Gosh, my throat.

Seems like I can't tonight.

It's out of my hands now.

Ji-yun!

EMERGENCY MEDICAL CENTER

Ms. Kang.

- Oh my.
- Who are you?

I'm so sorry.

Ms. Kang… isn't here.

I'm sorry.

Where is she?

Kim Ha-na? That's not it.

This one's empty.

Kang Ji-yun.

Kang Ji-yun!

Huh? Ms. Seo?

What happened?

What are you doing here?

Let me take a look.
They told me you collapsed.

You seem fine to me.

Stop overreacting. I'm okay.

- Ms. Kang Ji-yun?
- Yes?

- The doctor's ready to see you now.
- Thank you.

Her brain?

Overloaded?

In simple terms,

this one has overworked itself

and is protesting to its owner to stop.

Protest?

Why is it so weak?

Is it okay for a brain to be that fragile?

It's not fragile. You've just overused it.

The stress overloaded your brain

causing your autonomous nerve system
to show abnormalities.

Have you ever confused names,

forgotten to do things,

or said things you didn't mean?

Do these sound familiar?

Totally.

You were probably experiencing insomnia.

Wow, she's spot on.

All that was because you were sick?

Don't get stressed
and reduce your workload.

What about me?

Am I not suffering from brain overload?

I'm worst when it comes
to getting stressed.

Stay seated.

- You know how serious it is.
- Sure. We'll talk later. Sit down.

- Total overload.
- Okay, sit. We're at the hospital.

She didn't move an inch today.

It's been three hours.

Let her be.

That's her only stress-coping mechanism
ever since high school.

Let her unload.

Is her physical condition okay?

I'd say she was due.

She's handling all that schedule
without a secretary.

There's no way she could handle it.

And you still haven't found a secretary.

No, not yet.

I just can't find a person
who we can trust.

You know how picky she is.

Aren't you supposed to be
talking behind my back?

Oh, you could hear that?

I'm off. You can talk trash
all you want about me.

Already? Let's have dinner together.

I don't have any interest in becoming
a third wheel.

You won't be a third wheel.

We were invited to a friend's house.
Great at cooking.

- Join us.
- Yeah, come with.

You know I don't care for that. See you.

Hold it, please.

Doors are closing.

Going up.

Doors are closing.

Going up.

What the heck?

What's he doing here?

Doors are closing.

Going up.

Good morning, ma'am.

- Hello.
- Good morning.

- Hi.
- Hello.

You're here.

You walked in together with him.

Eun-ho!

I want you to meet our CEO,
Ms. Kang Ji-yun.

How do you do?

I'm Yu Eun-ho.

Say hi. He's your new secretary,
Mr. Yu Eun-ho.

- My secretary?
- Yup.

It's a fine morning, Ms. Kang.

SPECIAL THANKS TO
LEE HEE-JUN, HYUN BONG-SIK

Why is he my secretary?

- Why do you hate Eun-ho so much?
- Coffee?

He's my secretary.
I should be comfortable around him.

I just don't like him.

- Am I fired?
- No, no.

Keep an eye on all sides of her
whenever she's on the move.

Is that clear?

So, you'd really do it?
You'll be my secretary?

Mr. Yu Eun-ho?

Let's stop wasting our time.

I hate wasting my energy
on things like these.

I'm willing to do everything you ask for.

So…

Judge me only as a secretary.
