[Sung-hui chuckles] All right, next.

Goddess of wisdom, Ms. Athena.

[dramatic sting]

[dramatic music playing]

Hye-seung.

Hello.

I teach students for a living.

And I have a special reason
for coming here tonight.

I wanted to tell you the truth
about something I went through.

Something that happened to me.

And to tell you all about the woman…

who took everything from me.

That woman is--

[Selena shrieks]

Are you crazy?

Why are you here?

What's it to you?
I'm allowed to be here too.

Who do you think you are,
coming to an event like this?

Are you seducing other men?

[Selena] If I seduce other men or not,
what does that have to do with you?

Who do you think you are, my husband?

[Poseidon] We wouldn't be divorced
if you hadn't cheated on me. Am I right?

[Selena] And who's the one
who cheated first, you son of a bitch?

-Son of a bitch?
-Hey!

[Selena gasps]

-[Jin-su grunts]
-[crowd gasps]

Hey! Come here.

Kim Bin!

-Let go.
-What, are you a thug?

-[Poseidon] Get lost!
-[Ho-chan grunts]

[Poseidon] Is this how you treat
your members? I wanna see the CEO.

-[man 1] Come on, man.
-Hey, Kim Bin.

Let go, asshole!

-Sir, you can't act like this here.
-What do you want? Come at me!

[man 2] You okay?

[Hye-seung] Masks allow everyone
to be free.

-[man 1] Kim Bin!
-[woman] Excuse me, sir, here.

Lies and desire

[breathing heavily]

…all become the truth

behind the single layer of a mask.

[theme music playing]

[music ends]

[breathing shakily]

Hye-seung,

you look beautiful tonight.

Would you like to have a cup of tea
with me tomorrow?

Meet me at my office?

Hey, wait up.

[Ho-chan] Hyung-ju,
we're going to Jin-su's place.

Damn, man.

You're all right.

[tense music playing]

[car engine turns over]

[breathing shakily]

[music building]

[music ends abruptly]

Is this what you call being thorough?

You didn't even run
a proper background check.

I did,
I just didn't realize they were married.

They didn't mention
that kind of thing earlier.

Oh, is that your excuse?

[Yoo-sun] Ms. Hwang.

Who were the managers in charge tonight?

Thank you for all of your hard work today.

[dramatic music playing]

[breathes heavily]

[exhales]

How did Ms. Seo even know to come?
You said she wouldn't be there.

[Ji-sun] There's nobody
who could've invited her

other than Ms. Choi.

[dramatic sting]

[chuckles]

Choi Yoo-sun?

[Yeong-seo] Wait, what?
How does something like that happen?

Ugh, I should have gone with you!

I should have gone and just grabbed
that bitch by the hair like this.

[exhales]

I'm going to see Ms. Choi tomorrow.

And I'm going to tell her
what Jin- Yoo-hui is like.

-What she did to us.
-Yeah. Good idea.

You go tomorrow
and tell her everything. [sighs]

[jazz music playing]

[chuckles]

Wow, look at you guys. [chuckles]

If only it weren't for that mess…

[Ho-chan sighs]

…I'd be in some hotel room right now
making love to Selena for the fourth time.

-[Ho-chan] You're such a dumbass.
-Ah!

Hey, you know that Aphrodite?

She's the opposition lawyer
for the trial I'm on right now.

Junior lawyer.
It totally caught me off guard.

How can a lawyer be so sexy, huh?
She's so damn hot.

You know how awful she is in court?
She uses her looks on the judges.

Oh man. I love girls who do that. Come on.

-[Ho-chan] Oh please.
-Who are you gonna pick? That Hera? Hera?

Yeah, she seemed all right.

[cell phone vibrates]

Oh my god. I just got a text from Rex.

VOTING INSTRUCTIONS

-Who are you guys gonna pick?
-I don't know. You?

I pick…

all of them.

That way I have a better chance, right?

Hyung-ju, what about you, huh?

I'm not sure.

[Seok-jin sighs]

[Hye-seung] Now that you say that,
It reminds of my ex-boyfriend.

He left suddenly to study abroad.

I felt so betrayed by him.

Even at the end,
he should have said goodbye.

[melancholy music playing]

SEO HYE-SEUNG

[sighs]

[upbeat music playing]

This car is awesome!
Wow, listen to that engine!

Thanks, Jung-in. [chuckles]

So you'll stop whining?

You think that was about a car?
You went to a hotel with some other guy.

[scoffs]

Are you jealous? Huh?

Did you sleep with him?

Mmm.

What? You really did?

-Oh.
-[chuckles]

-Hey, pull over.
-There?

It's right by the road.

That's what makes it fun. [chuckles]

[chuckles]

[gentle music playing]

[knocks on door]

[woman] Jun-ho, are you asleep?

Can you even breathe under there?

[sighs]

When will this poor boy get a mother
to take care of him?

What's the use in having all that money
or a house as big as a stadium

when it's just as cold as ice?

[door opens, shuts]

[melancholy music continues]

Babe, hold on! Hyung-ju!

[Hyung-ju breathing heavily]

DIVORCE REGISTRATION

[Hyung-ju] Look at the next page.

DIVORCE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT

[sighs] I've done everything I could.
Don't try to get more.

How could you just do this to me
without even talking to me about it.

Talk about what?

Was it good with that bastard?

You were the one who made me lonely.

You spent half the year
out of the country.

When you were here,
you were always working.

Did it ever occur to you
that you made me like this?

So what?

[sighs]

Forgive me.

I gave you plenty of time.
You shouldn't have taken it so far!

I really messed up.

Forgive me this once.

What's even left for me
to forgive at this point?

I've decided to just let you go.

Go out and be together
with anyone you want. I don't care.

That's how you wanted to live anyway.

[chuckles]

Sure.

I've always been this kind of a woman.

I was so lonely every night
I'd just wander.

I couldn't help myself, could I?

Now if there's anything else,
tell it to Ho-chan.

[sighs]

-Excuse me, ma'am.
-[gasps]

-Hey, what's going on?
-[sighs]

I hear Hermes is the Super Black Member,
not Zeus. Is that true?

-Who said that?
-Uh, well, you know, people.

Is that what everyone thinks?

I guess I'm the only one.

Do you have any idea who Hermes picked?

I don't know.

I'll keep it a secret.

-I still don't know.
-Wait…

Did you check?

[Ji-sun] Yes, I checked.

And I'm positive that Mr. Hermes
was really the Super Black Member.

Okay, so who did he pick?

I'm afraid I didn't get the name,

but he definitely picked someone.

[suspenseful music playing]

Who is that person?

Yeah.

What?

What do you mean Zeus didn't pick me?

But why? I'm the complete package.

CHOI YOO-SUN

[knocks on door]

Ms. Choi.

[door shuts]

Here are the results
from the members' choices yesterday.

They aren't what I expected either.

Why did he pick Seo Hye-seung
over all the women who've never married?

LEE HYUNG-JU (HERMES)
ATHENA (SEO HYE-SEUNG)

Once he knows her background,
he won't lay up with her.

Probably not.

Because people all feel the same way.

Everyone says
they value love overall but look.

ZEUS, ZEUS, ZEUS

I guess it's just human nature.

Ms. Choi.

When you told me to change
the IDs for Zeus and Hermes,

I thought you did it
to support Jung Mi-jin.

But I don't see why

she didn't pick Mr. Hermes
for herself, though.

[dramatic music playing]

So are you saying I shouldn't pick him?

Why not?

Because a relationship with a man
is a long-term affair.

Then why did you tell me
to show him some kindness?

Kindness that's more genuine than others

has the power
to create a sense of stability.

That sense will eventually break down
the barriers to his heart.

Naturally, of course.

If you want something,
you must first take a step back.

Professor Jung.

Wow.

Queen of the gods, Hera.

STAFF CONTACT INFORMATION
SEO HYE-SEUNG

ADJUNCT PROFESSOR
MAJOR: KOREAN LITERATURE

Hello? This is Choi Yoo-sun.

I have the results from yesterday's votes.

I was wondering if we could meet up
and talk for a bit.

Excellent. Then I'll see you soon.

[line ends]

Who are you going to recommend for him?

[knocks on door]

[door opens]

Ma'am, Ms. Seo Hye-seung
is here to see you.

Tell her to come in.

Welcome back.

Please, sit.

It seems that at the event last night,

you weren't just there
to simply enjoy the party, Ms. Seung.

Didn't you invite me there

because there was something
you wanted to know?

All right, let's hear your story.

That woman and my husband
were having an affair.

She was a lawyer at his company.

They worked together,
but she was embezzling money.

And to cover it up,

that woman seduced my husband.

I guess she fooled him completely

because he told me he wanted a divorce
so he could live with her instead.

But, of course…

once she realized
she was about to get caught,

she blamed all of her crimes
on my husband

and claimed that he had raped her.

My husband committed suicide.

Then, not long ago,

I just happened to run into her.

Here.

The woman standing right next to you.

Jin Yoo-hui.

[dramatic music playing]

[Yoo-sun] So what?

What exactly is the problem here?

Do you think that a woman like that
is qualified to be here?

How could you possibly recommend her
to be someone's wife?

At Rex, our legal team runs
meticulous background checks on everyone.

If there are no legal disqualifications,
I have no reason to kick her out.

That woman is a murderer.

You think your husband
was stolen from you?

Do you ever think that, maybe,
you failed to keep him?

Don't you think kicking her out
is the ethical thing to do?

Okay, fine. Let's say I do kick her out.

At the moment, there are more
than 800 marriage agencies in the country.

Are you going to continue
to chase her from all of them?

Listen to me.

You need to get stronger.

No matter what it costs you.

Strong enough to keep
the entire world under your foot.

After all,

isn't that the best revenge?

[dramatic music playing]

One day

your words are going
to come back to haunt you.

Well, then. I'll be waiting.

[music building]

[music ends abruptly]

Back again?

Are you here for a repeat
of the masquerade?

You look like you just filed
a lawsuit or something.

How'd it go? Feel better?

I have already told you.

Now matter how much you try to threaten me
and follow my every move,

the whole world is on my side.

Even if that's true, there's one thing
that even you can't deny.

No matter what you do, or where you go,

you'll never be able to get rid of me.

We're going to be together forever.

Until one of us is dead.

That won't bring your dead husband back.

[somber music playing]

Do whatever you want.

Maybe we'll even be friends.

-[chuckles]
-[gasps]

Hello, Ms. Choi.

[exhales]

Yesterday was rough, wasn't it?

Welcome.

Can I help you with something?

I'm so thankful to you for throwing
the masquerade party all for me.

Oh.

I just saw Ms. Seo
as she was making her way out of here.

Seems like our fates are tied.

I hope Ms. Seo can find a good man
for herself soon.

I just hope that she can find happiness.

I saw that the man you picked
was Mr. Hermes

[exhales]

It was.

I followed him around
the entire time, but…

I don't think it made enough
of an impression.

Ms. Choi.

I put the power in your hands.

From here on out,

I ensure that you'll get a share
of everything I stand to gain.

Wouldn't it be such a shame
to give that up?

So then, who is Mr. Hermes
going to be matched with?

[Sung-hui] It's likely that you
will be the one who's recommended for him.

I was under the impression
that Ms. Aphrodite

would be the strongest competitor, though.

Ms. Choi isn't planning to recommend her.

Why not?

Because out of all the contenders,

you're the perfect candidate
for a potential wife.

And what happens
if Mr. Hermes keeps insisting on her?

I wouldn't worry about that.

[chuckles] In my 20 years of experience,

members at that level are never interested
in meeting the women with children.

[opera music playing]

I'm so sorry. I know you went out
of your way to attend the event that day.

Aw, it's fine. I actually had fun.

It felt like I was in the world
of Greek mythology.

It was definitely
a new experience for me. [chuckles]

It's very kind of you to say that.

So, I did see that your choice
for the evening was Ms. Athena.

Was there something about her
that caught your interest?

Oh, well, I've always been partial
to the goddess of wisdom.

Also, I'm quite curious
to hear the rest of her life story.

I'm so sorry,

but Ms. Athena did not list you
as one of her choices.

Oh, really?

She's also 41 and has a child.

-Ms. Athena has a child?
-Indeed.

But there is one woman
who named you as her choice.

Oh!

Hera, right?

[chuckles]

Well, I'm afraid
I have more bad news for you then.

Ms. Hera has forfeited.

Oh okay, I see.

That's such a shame, though.
She was acting so nice to me. [scoffs]

So, who is it?

It was Ms. Aphrodite who picked you.

Huh?

But we didn't get along at all.
Are you sure she really picked me?

Wow, now that's a twist.

She's a lawyer, right?

Thirty-five years old, never married.
She's on the legal team at a corporation.

She graduated
from a decent law school in Seoul.

-Her parents are divorced…
-Mmm.

…and her mother owns a bakery
just outside of Seoul.

Of course,
she may not be the perfect candidate,

but as you saw that night,

she's a very attractive woman
who garnered the most votes

from all of the male members.

[exhales]

It's just so strange, though. Isn't it?

One of them was so kind
but didn't even bother to pick me.

And the one who did,
gave me the cold shoulder.

Just when I thought I understood
what women wanted. [chuckles]

But the most important thing
is your choice, sir.

If you wish,
I'll be more than happy to connect you

with absolutely any woman
of your choosing.

Tell me who you would like to see.

[inhales]

I would like to meet with Ms. Aphrodite.

Very well. I'll be in touch very soon
to set up a date for you.

Goodbye.

Also…

there is one more person
who I'd really like to meet as well.

Someone who made the biggest impression
on me at the masquerade.

And who would that person be, sir?

That'd be Mr. Zeus.

[suspenseful music playing]

Arrange a date for him with Jin Yoo-hui.

[Sung-hui] Oh. [chuckles] What a surprise.

And finish up with Seo Hye-seung quickly.

[exhales]

[chuckles]

[Hye-seung] To what do I owe this honor?

The Rex secret party.

I was there too.

[drink pouring]

[exhales]

Are you disappointed?

I never imagined that you would be there.

Did you…

get divorced?

I was widowed.

I'm sorry.

I asked around.
They said you were an adjunct.

Do you do anything else?

I teach at a prep school.

-Is there anything I can help with--
-No, nothing. I can support myself.

What…

were you going to say
to everyone that night?

I can't stop wondering
what's happened all these years.

Okay.

You don't have to tell me about it.

That night,

I noticed Aphrodite
was hanging around you.

Are you interested in her?

-Interested?
-It's none of my business, but…

I hope you don't start seeing her.

That woman…

is the reason my husband's dead.

[exhales]

[woman] Math, 100.

Science, 100.

History, 100.

English, 91.

Korean…

Seventy-two?

I told you.
I'm just bad at Korean, you know?

I guess I'm just too much
of a science person.

You take after your dad.

Still, good job. [chuckles]

[sighs]

-[gentle music playing]
-[Yong-hwan sighs]

So.

Tell me, how were the matching results?

I bet a lot of girls liked you, huh?

There is one member
who chose Professor Cha, but she didn't--

There was only one?

These broads must
have terrible taste in men.

-And what?
-Well, she has a child.

What? A child? God dammit!

And who did you pick?

Why didn't you pick anyone?

Did you not see any members
that you were interested in?

You didn't pick anyone?
What? You don't want a wife?

[scoffs] Of course I do.

[coughs] Go on.
Go get something for me to put on.

-Yes, dear.
-[Yong-hwan clears throat]

[sighs]

There were lots of girls
that liked you, right?

You were the most popular.

[both chuckle]

Look at you. You're so handsome.

What kind of…

[both chuckle]

[exhales]

[Hye-seung] That night,

I noticed Aphrodite
was hanging around you.

I hope you don't start seeing her.

That woman…

is the reason my husband's dead.

[door opens]

Mr. Hermes asked me
for your contact information.

He wants to meet you.
Are you all right with that?

[exhales]

Sure, go ahead.

His real name is Mr. Lee Hyung-ju.

[suspenseful music playing]

I did everything that you told me to do.

So then why are you still pushing me
for somebody else?

In this market,
it's assumed you'll meet many people

in order to find
the best possible match for yourself.

But the most brilliant gem
is never the first to be revealed.

Would you understand if I told you
that this was a strategy

to make you more attractive?

[chuckles]

When a man starts liking a woman,
he will forget everyone else.

Is that right?

Desire isn't such a simple emotion,

especially when it comes to marriage.

You must be as careful as you can.

Then…

what do I have to do
to captivate a man's desire?

It would certainly be easier
if I could tell you that.

But the truth is, it doesn't matter
if you don't know what to do.

The most important thing…

is to be as real as you can

without revealing your true self,
you know?

That's what matters to you.

[music building]

-[music ends abruptly]
-[cell phone vibrating]

INCOMING CALL
MANAGER HWANG SUNG-HUI

[sighs]

Yes?

[Sung-hui] Hello, Ms. Seo.

I'm calling to tell you about
the matching results from the masquerade.

There's someone
who would really like to meet with you.

Should I go ahead
and set the date for you?

I'm just not that interested
at the moment.

Ms. Seo.

Why don't you just give it a chance?
Just try meeting with him once.

Even if you don't get married,
you could still become good friends.

All right. Tell me who he is.

[dramatic music playing]

You made a great impression that night.

I like women who are educated.

Well, thank you
for thinking so highly of me.

I heard you're a dentist.

Yeah.

That's why I've been staring
at your teeth this whole time. [chuckles]

Very healthy.

That's exactly how I feel
about correct spelling.

-It's a work habit.
-[chuckles]

I guess I should watch what I text you,
like "your" and "you're."

[both chuckle]

We meet again, Ms. Aphrodite.

Lee Hyung-ju.

I'm Jin Yoo-hui.

[Sung-hui] I hear both of them
have arrived.

So Hye-seung's meeting us today too?

All right, then.
Make sure to check in on them.

But Ms. Choi,

in my personal opinion

Jung Min-jin is a better match
for Lee Hyung-ju.

Do you think that he
and Jin Yoo-hui will work out?

After spending some time together,

I'm sure they'll wanna get
to know each other better.

You mean tonight? [chuckles]

But it's their first date.

Do you think Jin Yoo-hui
will really act that way?

[music building]

It's Jin Yoo-hui.

[opera music playing]

You were being so cold to me that day.

I thought, "Jeez, she must really not
be into me or something."

I wasn't.

But… Then why did you end up picking me?

I just felt bad for you.
You looked so lonely.

So, it was out of pity. I understand now.

[chuckles]

Well, then. Um, how am I doing so far?

Who knows? I need some time.

That's true. It takes time. [chuckles]

I heard that you're in charge
of a gaming company.

-What's your company called?
-Uh, it's called Hibull, and--

[sighs]

What's wrong?

I've spent my entire paycheck
on Hibull games.

[chuckles] Yeah?

Oh sorry. I didn't realize
you were a valued customer. [chuckles]

Please, eat.

[gentle music playing]

I heard that the members
at higher levels

prefer to meet with people
who are young and childless.

So I'm a bit surprised.

What's wrong with having a kid?

I have two myself.

You can't judge a book by its cover.

I knew you were the one
when I first saw you.

[chuckles nervously]

Would you like to have another whiskey
in the sky lounge?

-I reserved a bottle.
-[exhales]

-Right now?
-Let's go.

I think I've had enough already.
Let's call it a night.

Let's do it. Let's go.

Uh…

[exhales]

Yeah.

[knocks on door]

Lee Hyung-ju and Jin Yoo-hui
are on a blind date right now.

[exhales]

Is Choi Yoo-sun actually trustworthy?

You need to make her someone
you can trust.

When you're powerful,
you need people you can trust.

[dramatic music playing]

There's no point in feeling betrayed.

That just means you lost power.

The reason that Sangwon Group betrayed us

is because we didn't
have any power, right?

Don't just hope they'll trust you.

If you become someone they need,
trust will follow.

[elevator chimes]

What are we doing here?

Aren't we on the same page?

-What do you mean?
-[chuckles]

You must know what this is.
It's not like we're kids.

What are you doing?

I mean, what's the problem?

Aren't we here to have some fun together?

[scoffs]

Where are you going?
We're not done.

[gasps]

I even booked a room for us.

Let go!

-Should I call the staff?
-[chuckles]

Okay, fine. How much do you want?

Why are you acting all innocent
when you know what this is?

I bought dinner and drinks,
and you ate it up. So what gives?

[elevator chimes]

[cell phone vibrates]

Yeah, Seok-jin. Are you here?

Come to the sky lounge. This man's crazy.

[door opens, shuts]

So, you're a self-made businessman.

I thought you came from a rich family.

My family used to be dirt-poor,

so I'm not really into guys
who are born rich.

That phrase "dirt-poor,"

you… you don't seem
like that kind of person to me, though.

-Really?
-Yeah.

But my family was so poor.

-Hmm.
-My mom used to be a dancer.

My father was a lawyer,
but he passed away when I was younger.

We ended up having to eat instant noodles
most of the time.

Which are delicious, but yeah, still. Mmm.

They didn't bother me back then.

My mother was struggling,
so she remarried,

but I didn't get along with my stepfather.

I acted out a bit as a teenager.

[chuckles] Um, so then,
how did you become a lawyer?

It was this rich girl that I knew.

She always used to look down
on me at school.

She thought she was the better student.

And that brought out
my competitive streak.

"I don't know about anything else,
but I'm the better student."

[chuckles]

I guess once I got to college,
I started wanting more.

I thought, "What's the best thing
I can do from now on?"

Something that's also good for the world.

Something I can feel proud of.

-The answer was obvious to me.
-Practicing law?

Mm-hmm.

I wanted to become a great lawyer
like my father was.

[inhales]

So I take it your father
was a very good lawyer then?

So they say.

You mean, like he defended
and fought for the weak?

-Or always tried to help those in need--
-No.

I mean, he had a high win rate.

Of course. A lawyer needs a high win rate.

[exhales]

Hye-seung!

Hye-seung, you okay? Huh?

Where's that son of a bitch?

[breathing heavily]

That was what he wanted all along.

It makes sense.

He was okay with everything.

Why would you date someone like…

[exhales]

I'm sorry for bothering you.

I didn't want to call the police.

[exhales]

[sighs]

You must've been shocked.

[sighs]

Why doesn't it ever work out for me?

I actually went on a blind date

'cause I wanted revenge.

Someone said I had to become stronger…

if I wanted to take her down.

Even if I had
to borrow power from a man.

[sniffles, whimpers]

It doesn't matter. Let's go.
I'm sick of complaining.

Before you go…

can we talk about something?

I guess we were there for a while?

That's okay, the wine was good.

[exhales]

Hey, uh…

Hmm?

…do you want to grab another drink?

[gentle music playing]

Did I ever tell you about my brother?

This is putting it nicely, but my father…

was a tyrant who beat my mother.

For a long time, and quite violently.

So, ever since he was young,

my brother got beaten every time
he tried to protect our mother.

But he couldn't win.

Why would your father
do something like that to her?

It was shame.

My father couldn't stand
that he was a normal guy

married to a princess.

[sighs deeply]

And on that day,

he swung a golf club at my mother.

My brother saw it coming
and leaped in before I could stop him.

He beat my father
until he almost killed him.

Then he left the house…

got drunk and drove his car into a median.

That was the last of him.

From then on, my mother…

spent the rest of her life in a hospital
after doing her best to follow him.

Eventually…

my mother went to be
with the son she loved so much.

How come you never told me
about any of this?

Were we not close enough
for you to tell me?

I just wanted to run away from everything.

If I had stayed there any longer…

[exhales]

I might've killed my father.

If you really were in that much pain,
I should've been there for you.

No.

It was only right to let you go.

When I heard that you had got married,
I felt better for some reason.

So…

I really hoped that you'd be happy.

[sighs]

You didn't even give me a chance.

Hye-seung…

-how would you like to become a lecturer?
-Hmm?

The school has put together a program
designed for top executives.

They’re looking for instructors.
Of course, only if you want.

I can recommend you. If you like.

[Yoo-hui chuckles]

[Hyung-ju] I'm serious.
You don't believe me?

-I'm serious.
-[Yoo-hui] Really?

[chuckles]

-[Hyung-ju] What?
-Nothing.

-Hey, cheers.
-Yes. Oh, did I order this? Huh?

[Yoo-hui] Yeah.

Which game is your favorite one?

Aphrodite, with Lee Hyung-ju?

Lee Hyung-ju? Who's that?

Hermes. The CEO of Hibull.

[Hyung-ju] I like Monopoly.

-Monopoly?
-Yeah.

Me too, actually.

I've always struggled financially
in the past, but…

-He's the CEO?
-Mmm.

But Jin Yoo-hui was after you that night.

So why is she with him?

[exhales] She must
have mistaken me for him.

Our IDs were switched right before.

That's why she thought
I was a businessman.

[dramatic music building]

[music ends abruptly]

[exhales shakily]

I had so much fun tonight.

I laughed a lot, thanks to you.

I hope that I gave you
a better impression of me.

Oh!

[elevator chimes]

It's here.

[dramatic music building]

[music ends abruptly]

[dramatic music playing]

Hyung-ju.

I find you to be very handsome.

[music ends]

MANAGER HWANG SUNG-HUI

-[line ringing]
-[Sung-hui] Hello, Ms. Seo.

How was your date last night?
Did it go well?

How could you set me up
with someone like him?

He was just looking for a one-night stand.

He was?

[exhales] But I don't…

I'm so sorry about that, Ms. Seo.

-I had no idea that he would--
-[line ends]

What is going on?

Mr. Lee?

This is Choi Yoo-sun.

Did you have a good time yesterday?

[inhales] Yes, I had a great time.

I imagine that you found Ms. Jin Yoo-hui
rather attractive.

What was your impression of her?

Mmm, she was charming.

That's good.

So I imagine you'd want
to continue seeing her.

Uh, yes. Let me see how it goes first.

All right, then.

We'll schedule the next date
and get back to you, okay?

[line ends]

[dramatic music playing]

Really?

Yes, I've been keeping an ear out for you,

and I think he's already fallen hard,
you know?

-[chuckles] It's going really well so far.
-Yes, all right.

[music building]

[music ends abruptly]

-Hi.
-[class] Hello, Professor.

Professor, the department chair
said he would like to see you.

Oh.

[female student] Professor!

Oh. Yes?

If this project doesn't go well,
I can't come back next semester.

[sighs]

[door opens, shuts]

-Professor.
-Ah, Professor Seo.

-[Hye-seung exhales]
-So…

They want someone else
in charge of research.

They're not satisfied
with the project results.

What?

I told them I couldn't do it,
but they insisted.

I thought they said
that they wanted it to be you, right?

How are the results not good enough?

That's what I'm saying.
There's nothing wrong with them.

By any chance,

did something happen between you
and Ms. Jin Yoo-hui recently?

[scoffs]

[exhales] I'm very worried
that they're going to abandon the project.

Professor Seo, I'll definitely make sure
to give you a major course next semester--

Will the students be okay
if I quit the project?

-Their scholarships?
-Of course! They'll be fine.

[cell phone vibrating]

Yes? Hello, sir!

[chuckles]

You must be so busy.
How can I help you? [chuckles]

What?

Did you say a tutor?

[inhales]

There's one more thing to discuss.

Thinking long-term,
I'm wondering what the execs think

about a potential partnership
with Lionsoft.

To acquire A.B. in the United States.

When you say A.B,
are you talking about Action Blitz?

Aren't they, like, way bigger?

That's right. The largest in the US.

Whoa.

So…

So? Did they agree?

No, they hated it. Said we'd go under.

I've actually never seen my employees
look like that.

Thank goodness
they're not out of their mind, at least.

Those young people
should have more ambition.

It's sink or swim. Right, Hyung-ju?

That's what I'm saying.

But you'll do it anyway?

Hey. Do you two know
what I have in common with Steve Jobs?

The board of directors
is always against us.

-But it always turns out fine.
-Steve Jobs got kicked out in the end.

And he made a triumphant return.

[Ho-chan sighs]

If Sung-jae and I join forces,
we'll have a chance.

-That's a very good point.
-Let's write up the agreement.

-I'll convince the board of directors.
-[snaps fingers] Let's do it.

And Ho-chan, meet with both legal teams
about acquisition.

Make sure that I don't
have to sue this guy one day.

Ah, yes sir, Mr. bosses. Sir.

Bravo!

This is a historic moment.

Yeah!

[exhales]

[sighs]

[theme music playing]

[Hye-seung] Life is
still so unpredictable…

-Ugh, rough day. Get home safely.
-See you tomorrow, sir.

[Hye-seung] Just as I hit rock bottom…

Just when it seemed
like I had no hope left to lose…

Who are you?

-You're Jun-ho's dad?
-Yes.

Nice to meet you.

I'm Seo Hye-seung.
Jun-ho's Korean tutor starting today.

[Hye-seung] Fate reaches out
to me yet again.

[theme music continues playing]
