[theme music]
I didn't mean to lie to you from the very beginning.
I just happened to go to that blind date and met President Kang because of it.
Did you say "Blind date?"
Wait, why were you on a blind date?
I'm good friends with Jin Young-seo of Marine Group, sir.
You see, she didn't wanna go to the blind date, so…
And so?
After President Kang found out I was a fake,
he went and asked me to pretend to be his girlfriend,
because he mentioned he didn't want to waste his time going on blind dates.
So you're saying you two weren't a couple in the first place,
but started seeing each other just to trick me?
-Yes, sir. But then it-- -If that's the case,
if there's nothing between you and my grandson,
that should be enough.
-[clears throat] -I…
Listen to me, I want you to stop seeing Tae-moo.
It wouldn't be good for anyone to be in that situation.
-Other people will take it the wrong way. -[phone buzzing]
Sir, hold on, there's something I need to tell you…
Hey, Sung-hoon, hello.
What?
What about Tae-moo?
-[gasps] -[somber music]
[Da-goo groans]
Look, I'm fine.
Oh, you're here. Let's go.
[car door opens, closes]
[sighs]
[gasps]
[Da-goo grumbles]
[sighs]
[young Tae-moo] Mom! No! Mommy!
My son, Tae-moo!
[young Tae-moo] Daddy!
[hurried footsteps approaching]
Now how dare you show your face in here?
Chairman Kang.
[Da-goo] Didn't you hear what I said earlier?
That I don't want any trouble
such as having something others can take the wrong way.
Grandfather…
Stop. Don't you ever call me that. You don't have the right.
Think for a second.
Whose fault is it that he got into an accident?
[door closes]
[Tae-moo] I'm doing just fine, so don't get angry.
-[Da-goo] Oh. -[sighs in relief]
Tae-moo, are you all right? Huh?
Your arm. Tell me, are you hurt anywhere else, huh?
[gentle music]
A fake relationship to avoid going on blind dates?
What were you thinking, lying like that?
Lying to everyone and to your grandfather.
Anyway, I'll be off. I'll get going now, President Kang.
Have a good night.
[receding footsteps]
Grandfather…
the relationship we're in is not fake.
[gentle sweet music]
Yes, Ms. Shin Ha-ri is someone I love. Very much.
EPISODE 11
Tell me the truth.
Have you known all along as well?
I'm sorry, sir.
The two of you planned this all out and lied to me outright.
You bunch of ungrateful little brats!
Don't be mad at Sung-hoon, he's out of this.
He's my secretary. Of course, he'd be on my side with this.
Really, Tae-moo, what the heck are you thinking?
You need to end this now!
If that's what you want, fine.
Just one thing…
you can forget about getting a great-grandson, then.
What was that?
-Why you, what do you think-- -'Cause I don't think I'll ever meet
a woman I'd like as much as Ha-ri.
So yeah, go ahead. Do whatever you want.
If you're fine with seeing your grandson never getting married
and becoming a workaholic.
Tae-moo, are you… are you threatening me right now?
[sighs] Grandfather, please, that's not what I--
What if I say, "No, over my dead body?"
You liked her when you met her as Ms. Geum-hui.
-What's so different about it now? -Back then,
I was clueless. I had no idea it was all but a complete lie.
Everything about her is nothing but a lie, everything.
That's all on me, I'm telling you.
I pushed Ha-ri into it first, into a relationship contract.
As a matter of fact, I'm more to blame for this, not her.
[groaning sigh]
So if you wanna hate someone, Grandfather, hate me.
Please don't take it out on Ha-ri.
She's the woman I love with all my heart.
Please, Grandfather.
[sighs]
I'm so glad Mr. Kang didn't get hurt that badly back there.
But Chairman Kang must have been really surprised, huh?
Yeah, I know.
So what did he say? Did he say anything to you?
Did he give an envelope full of money so you'd leave Tae-moo?
Are you really trying to be funny right now?
No, it's not that at all.
What? Don't you remember? The guy I dated for a bit in college?
The one who played in a band.
Yeah, my dad gave him an envelope full of money
because I was so obsessed with him during that time.
Oh. [chuckles]
And just like that, he disappeared along with the envelope.
[chuckling]
-[rain clattering] -[Young-seo] Huh?
What the? That's weird. Why has it been raining so much lately?
Hey, Young-seo, I'm sorry, but I need to get back to the hospital.
What? Why would you go there? Do you see this rain?
Could you pull over for a bit? I'm sorry about this.
[Young-seo] Uh…
[mellow music]
You should go home, sir. It's getting late.
Hmm.
[hurried footsteps approaching]
[door opens]
I'm sorry for this.
It's raining outside, so…
I couldn't help but…
worry about Mr. Kang.
[clears throat]
Go on in, Ms. Shin.
[mellow music continues]
Don't turn on the lights.
What are you doing way over there?
Just looking out the window, that's all.
Anyway, why'd you come back here?
Is it because…
[chuckles softly]
Let me guess, you already miss me, don't you?
Hmm. Exactly.
Come on here, then.
[Tae-moo] You see that right there?
[Ha-ri] Yeah, I see it. Why? What about Namsan Tower?
I remembered something just now, something my father said to me then.
He said that Namsan Tower looked like a Christmas tree.
What do you think?
Now that you say that, I actually kind of see it.
The day he told me that,
was when he had gotten himself into a situation.
He got busted while he was wrapping up some Christmas presents for me.
Uh…
Which made me cry, asking if Santa doesn't exist.
My mother was trying really hard for me to calm down.
Oh, wow, your parents must have been so flustered.
Yeah.
But what my mother told me worked.
She said Santa was busy,
so he left a present and asked my parents to wrap it.
Wow, that was a good cover.
So I got to believe in Santa Claus a few years more because of that.
[gentle music]
It's really pouring down. It's been a while now since I…
watched rain pour down like this.
Thank you. I'm glad you're back here for me.
You know, I used to hate it.
Words of comfort or even sad faces looking at me.
I felt like no one really knew what I was feeling.
I thought they would just say anything, but they didn't actually mean it.
And so I pretended I was fine.
And I did thought I was fine.
But one day I realized…
I was rotting away from the inside.
So for a while I was in a lot of pain, yeah.
I think, uh…
anyone would have felt the same.
My parent's accident…
happened all because of me.
[somber music]
Please don't go, Mom.
It's my birthday today.
Hey, Dad, you said you'd go with me to the amusement park today, hmm?
Listen, Tae-moo.
Don't worry, okay?
Mom and Dad will be back soon, all right, son? Hmm?
Hello, Tae-moo, sweetheart.
We're on our way back. We can go to the amusement park.
Wait just a bit longer, okay?
Hurry back, Mom. You are already late.
Hurry! Quick!
Oh, now, Tae-moo, you shouldn't talk to your mother like that.
Hello? We'll see you there.
Is Mom coming?
Yes, dear, she's coming. She's hurrying too, all right.
Come on.
[car engine revving]
-[horn honking] -[gasping, screaming]
[tires screeching]
-[young Tae-moo] Mom! -[Da-goo] Tae-moo, no, don't look!
-[young Tae-moo] Dad! -[Da-goo] Look away! Don't look!
Mom!
Mommy!
[Da-goo] Tae-moo, that's enough.
-[young Tae-moo] Mommy! -[Da-goo] I said don't look.
-Don't look! -[young Tae-moo] Mommy!
-My God, Tae-moo! -[young Tae-moo] Mom!
-[Da-goo] Don't cry, Tae-moo! -[young Tae-moo] Mom!
I can never see…
my parents' faces whenever I dream of them.
I see the backs of their heads then wake up.
Every time that happens, I couldn't help but think that…
maybe my parents resent me for what I caused to happen to them.
And I think that's the reason why…
the both of them won't let me see their faces…
even in my dreams.
[soft music]
Oh, dear. How could you even…
bring yourself to say those things?
So, Tae-moo,
you know when you were talking about your parents,
you had this really beautiful smile on you.
Really, I could tell by just the look on your face.
I could tell you were so dearly loved as you grew up.
Do you really think these people who loved you so much…
could ever come to resent you?
[Ha-ri] Oh.
Now hearing this from you makes me scared.
Are you resenting me, thinking you got into that accident because of me?
No, of course I'm not.
Come on, how could you think I resent you?
Well, would you look at that?
You feel just the same towards it.
See, it's just like what I was telling you just now…
how could your parents ever bring themselves to resent you?
They probably want their son to be happy, more than anyone else.
I thought I…
didn't have that right anymore.
I thought I should never…
forgive myself.
["Spring Breeze" by New playing]
I'm sure your parents…
would want you to forgive yourself.
They would want you to be free from the past…
and to carry on and be happier than anybody else.
I'm sure that's what they want.
["Spring Breeze" by New continues playing]
[groans softly]
[gasps]
What's wrong with me?
Did I really fall asleep here?
[soft music]
Sleep tight, you.
[playful music]
[Mi-mo yawning]
You!
[suspenseful music]
You're going to work this early?
Yeah.
There are a lot of things to do at work today.
Oh, look at you, working so hard to earn that money.
Okay, go on! Go and get it, dear. Right.
Now, be careful on your way to work.
-[Mi-mo] Come on, get going. -[Ha-ri] I, uh…
There. Don't skip any meals and don't eat anything unhealthy, okay?
-[Ha-ri] Okay, mom. -[Mi-mo] Oh, you. I am so proud of you.
-Bye, I'll see you later, then. -Uh-huh.
Hold on, that reminds me. Where is my cellphone?
Did I leave it at the hospital?
-[car horn honks] -[Ha-ri] Hmm?
Hey, Ha-ri.
Young-seo? What are you doing here?
-Here you are. -[gasps]
Hey!
So it turns out I left it in here, huh? Oh, man, I thought I'd lost this thing.
Oh, wow, thanks for this!
You should first look at the NerdTube comments
on the video of you and Min-woo.
Why? What's in there?
It's complicated. Just look at it.
[Young-seo] Yoo-ra made a mess of things again.
[user 1] The researcher and Chef Lee, the two of them look so good together.
[user 2] Totally. Who knows, maybe they're already dating.
See, your phone was blowing up early this morning,
so I looked to see if it was something urgent at work.
[Young-seo sighs]
[Yoo-ra] They sure look good together.
Even as his girlfriend,
I honestly think they look cute together, too.
But maybe too much. A little too much.
You know, she liked Min-woo for an entire seven years.
She followed him around as a friend, but then,
she recently started flirting with him, using work as an excuse.
Funny, because her boyfriend is the president of the company she's in.
She always pretends to act naive.
She never fails to play the victim, acting all nice.
But what I can't stand is the sight of her going back and forth between two men.
I swear, what she's doing makes me nauseous.
[sighs]
[tense music]
[user 3] Wow, if that's true, then doesn't it make that researcher
a total snake?
[user 4] Breaking news! The president of go food is her boyfriend!
[Ha-ri groans]
My God. So does that mean she's cheating on that go food president
with the chef she's working with?
Oh, dear…
[user 5] So an employee got her crush a job by dating her boss? That's crazy.
[user 6] This is like the plot of some soap or something. Wow.
That researcher's got some moves.
So, do you think it's true, what they're saying in all those comments?
They must have posted those because it's true.
Judging by the picture, it clearly is.
I mean, really. Dating an employee in this day and age? Why is he causing…
What good is it if we take down the video
and hide the comments for people not to see,
when there are people like you who are babbling away on the inside?
Sir, it's not like that at all.
We were just worried about the whole situation.
Well, if you're truly worried,
then you two better watch your mouths. Be careful with what you're saying!
[Da-goo groans]
I heard the higher-ups wanted to talk to you.
What happens now? Is Ms. Shin going to be reprimanded?
Hey, Ms. Kim, did you put up the sign at the door like I told you to?
Well, yeah, I did.
NO ENTRY EXCEPT FOR TEAM 1
[man] We're all on the Food Development team here, come on.
Don't we count? Really, aren't we all a family here?
Yes. Anyway, did you guys know the secret about them?
That those two were dating?
Listen, if we knew,
would we all be sitting here looking so shocked like this?
You ever thought about that?
Okay, but how did Ms. Shin seduce President Kang anyway?
Do you think President Kang knows she's cheating on him like this?
Why do you think he didn't come to work today?
Can you just imagine the shock and the shame of being totally cheated on?
If I were him, I wouldn't come to work either.
I wouldn't be able to handle it. It's just too much.
I'm sorry, I got a bit delayed.
I was wondering how long it would take you to crawl your way to work.
You even ignored my calls!
I apologize, I didn't mean to. I lost my phone.
-Okay then, have a great day. -Have a good one.
[Ui-joo] We have a bit of a situation. You're aware of it, right?
Yes. But, Ms. Yeo, you should know--
Hold your horses, I'm not done. Let me finish.
The higher-ups, they want us to stop whatever we're doing. New directives.
-What? -What?
Although they took down the video and deleted all the comments,
it already spread like wildfire and it's not looking good at all.
If I were to guess, they've decided that it's a bad idea to continue
with any project connected to Ms. Shin. Those will be reassigned
as long as your name's there.
What's gonna happen to everything we worked on?
They're going to hand it over to Team 2 and 3.
Then what are we supposed to do? Come to work and just twiddle our thumbs?
We'll help Team 2 and 3 as a support team.
But we're the ones who did all the hard work, right?
Another team's gonna take credit for it now.
[groans]
And I was really hoping I'd get promoted this time, too.
[chuckles sadly] Guess not.
[Bin sighs]
Apparently, Chairman Kang told everyone to not tell Mr. Kang about those comments,
'cause he would throw a fit.
Oh, that's a relief.
How about you? Are you doing okay?
Any of your coworkers talking shit behind your back or bullying you?
No, everything is good over here.
Actually, I was about to go out to have some lunch with my coworkers.
I'm fine. See you later, girl.
Okay. You stay strong.
Hmm, yeah, I will. Okay, I'll call you later.
[cheeky tense music]
I love you too, honey. I love you. [smooches]
[Yoo-jung] Well, you're absolutely giddy, aren't you?
So what? Why are you glaring at me like that?
-Got something to say? -You be very careful.
Don't you know what your own father is like?
[sighs] Why are you raining on my parade?
Why would you even bring up Dad like that?
Can you just try to not make it so obvious at work that you're in a relationship?
Your father's gonna lose his mind if he finds out you're dating Mr. Cha.
Mind your own business.
Don't you dare tell him about it. I will kill you myself if you tell.
Don't worry!
But I'm not doing it for you.
-What? -[Yoo-jung] You're not the reason
that I'm keeping quiet.
I'm doing it for Mr. Cha's sake.
Because of my heart.
And this silence serves as my…
as my last act of love.
Do you know what I'm saying?
Oh, sure.
[scoffs] Wow.
I guess she really adored Sung-hoon, didn't she?
[Young-seo sighs]
It's too bad. Why do we have to like all the same things?
[sighs]
Maybe I shouldn't have come to work like Young-seo said.
All right, then. Why don't we sit down for a bit?
-[Hye-ji] Yep. -[Bin] Sure.
I wonder where Ms. Shin is right now. I didn't see her in the cafeteria.
You know what? Stop worrying about Ms. Shin.
We need to worry about ourselves for now.
Our work lives are about to get harder because of someone.
-I wonder what the menu is for tomorrow? -It is what it is.
Did you hear about that?
That employee in Food Product Development Team 1 who's dating President Kang,
I heard that she only got her Mega Hit Award
because she was dating Mr. Kang.
-[gasps] Oh, really? -Mm-hmm.
I saw a picture of her, and she's not even that pretty.
I wonder how she was able to seduce someone like President Kang.
Yeah, definitely weird.
Apparently, she's had a lot of flings with other guys already.
[sighs]
We should probably tell President Kang, right?
-You should. -[laughter]
[laughs]
-Having fun, are we? -Sir?
Must be fun talking to others about something you didn't know yourself.
-[Bin] Don't you just love rumors? -Who are you?
Oh, me? I'm on Team 1.
You know, like the very employee you were talking about just now.
Associate Director Gye Bin.
-Oh. -Hi, sir. Sorry, I didn't know.
Let's get it straight. She didn't get that Mega Hit Award
because she was dating the president. That girl has always been exceptional.
-Isn't that right? -[Hye-ji] Damn straight!
Ms. Shin has always been an exceptional senior researcher.
Of course. Can you believe she got that award
and all the while, none of her seniors even came close?
[Bin chuckles]
True story, because that senior that she bested was me.
-Oh, of course, sir. -She beat me.
-There's nothing more to it. -[man] Oh, yes.
So the point is, don't talk shit about something you don't know.
Okay?
By the way, our little Ms. Shin
is so much prettier, that girl is undoubtedly way prettier than you.
[scoffs] Excuse me?
-Right. So, uh, let's… -[clears throat]
Let's go. Yeah, come on.
[man] Goodbye, sir. Hey, wait for me.
[victorious music]
Oh, Mr. Gye that felt so good. I didn't think you had it in you.
Oh, it's nothing.
Interesting. You were whining the most about it.
In the end, you showed kindness to the one close to you.
Of course, it's Ms. Shin. What are you talking about?
[laughs]
Ah… It's okay if I talk smack about someone I'm close to,
but when other people do it, hell, I can't stand it.
Look at you.
[chuckles]
It's Ms. Shin!
How long have you been there?
[sobbing]
Mr. Gye, I'm sorry!
[staff] Oh, that's gotta hurt.
[sobbing]
Oh, jeez, wait a sec.
Wait, Ms. Shin, need oxygen. Need a little air.
I'm sorry.
I thought all of you guys hated me now.
[sobbing]
[Ha-ri] I love you.
-Hey there. -Oh, Young-seo, what's up?
-Are you gonna meet Ha-ri? -Oh, ah…
By the way, anything bad happened here?
Bad? Hey, Mom, nothing bad happened here, right?
-[Mi-mo] No, why do you ask? -Oh, Young-seo wanted to know.
-I'll do a delivery. -Go.
-Yeah, go quick. -[Ha-min] I'm off!
Oh, look at him. I was just asking about the store.
-Mother. -Yeah?
Could I have a beer and two orders of fried chicken?
-One for me and one for Ha-ri, please. -So one for each of you?
-Yeah. -You got it.
I'll go ahead and grab the beer, Mother.
[Mi-mo] Yeah, sure.
[exhales deeply]
I don't think she knows yet, thank goodness.
[customer] Oh, wow. Apparently, the president of go food
is dating an employee, but things are a mess right now,
because she cheated on him with this other guy.
And what happened was, someone exposed her for what she's done.
Hold on, the girl who works in this place works at go food, the owner's daughter.
-[customer] Oh, yeah. -[clears throat]
[customer] Now that you mention it, she does.
Hey, what are you doing? You're spilling our precious beer.
Snap out of it, will you?
-I'm so sorry about this. I'm so sorry. -Get it together, Young-seo. Okay?
Excuse me, sir?
-Yes, sir? -You said that your daughter
works at go food, did I get that right?
Uh, yeah. Why?
-[Young-seo screams] -Oh.
Hey, why did you scream? What's wrong?
Uh… I don't know, I just…
-Here, let me show you-- -No, no. Stay there.
[customer] Is that right?
Listen, everyone. Order anything you like.
I'll be paying for everyone's…
food and drinks tonight.
Oh, really? Then quick, give me the menu right here.
-Oh, sure thing. -[customer] I want two pints of beer.
[overlapping chatter]
-Over here. -I'm on it. Here you go.
-Slowly now. -Right, gently. Here.
[groans]
Does it hurt?
-[groans] -More gently, then.
[cheeky music]
[both] Hey, it's not what you think.
Oh, it's all right. I'll just come back later.
Hey, wait. Nurse…
No… wait…
She took it the wrong way 'cause of you.
-I was uncomfortable, too. -Uncomfortable you say?
[Tae-moo groans]
Hey, be careful now. Slowly. Slowly.
Oh, let's do this side first.
Now I'm the one who's feeling uncomfortable with you…
-[whispers] … breathing down my neck. -[yelps]
Why would you whisper like that?
What? Do you really want me to yell in your ear?
I was trying to be nice.
Well, in that case, please don't try to be nice.
[groans]
Here.
That smells good. What's that scent you've got?
[yelping] Knock it off!
You know what? Just button those up yourself.
[shudders]
And where is everything? You got them all right, Sung-hoon?
What the hell? So you can do it yourself?
By the way, why do you need so many books all of a sudden?
'Cause I'm bored, that's why.
He's not letting me do any work. So what else can I do?
[soft music]
I thought you might need it.
What are you going to do…
about this situation with Ms. Shin?
With the chairman so against the two of you dating,
you can't just keep charging him head on about it.
If it were you, would you be able to give up Ms. Jin,
if her father didn't like you?
I do feel bad for grandfather,
but I can't and won't give up Ha-ri.
[dramatic gasp]
I spent 457,000 won at a fried chicken restaurant.
You think I should… maybe I should frame this?
[laughs]
So why would you offer to cover everyone's bills at the restaurant?
Seriously? I was worried your parents would find out about you.
[Ha-ri] Thanks.
I'm screwed. Money's already tight with my living expenses.
I'm gonna be completely broke this month.
Oh, my neck hurts. Oh, my neck hurts. [groans]
Does it hurt?
Oh, Young-seo, quick! Show me where it hurts exactly.
Where, where, where, right here?
-Does it hurt here? -I'm a bit sore right there.
[Young-seo chuckles]
You know what, Shin Ha-ri?
You ought to count your lucky stars that you have a friend like me around.
Yeah, of course, I know that.
Shut up. Why do you think I treat you so well, huh?
True that.
Oh, this is all because of Yoo-ra! That bitch, how dare she?
How could those two be so quiet after causing this mess?
Have you even heard from Min-woo?
Yeah, he called but…
But what?
[sighs] But…
I didn't pick up.
Why? You should have yelled his ears off for ruining your life.
Honestly, I was going to at first, but…
but then I thought about it.
I'm not entirely innocent.
The stuff they're saying, one of them said something like,
"If she's had a crush on him for seven years,
she's basically a stalker."
Hey, you shouldn't care about some stupid comment on the internet.
-It's not like you. -Excuse me, you're one to talk.
You said that I was obsessed with him, too.
Okay, you know that's different.
[sighs]
So if even my own best friends start saying the same things they are,
I don't know, I just thought…
It's no wonder Yoo-ra's been hating me so much.
So this time, I'm calling it even.
Tit for tat, right?
Wow! You hear yourself. How can you say that? It's not the same.
If it were me, I would've given Yoo-ra one in the face.
That's a real tit for tat.
Remember that one time I used to be called Bloody Head?
I got the flow. She can't handle the shuffle.
Young-seo, I love you!
[Young-seo] Oh, Ha-ri, I love you, too.
[soft music]
[sighs]
[phone buzzing]
Hmm?
Hi. Who's speaking?
Well, hello there. Is this Ms. Shin Ha-ri?
Who is this?
I'm calling you because I think you forgot something important.
Care to make a guess at what it is?
[laughs softly]
Okay, Tae-moo, what are you doing?
What does it look like?
I'm calling my girlfriend who'd been ignoring her injured boyfriend.
I thought you would've dropped by after work.
I'm sorry. I've just been all over the place today.
Well, do you know who I'm with right now?
Wait, there's someone with you now? Who is it? Who are you with?
I'm with a friend.
You probably know this friend of mine here.
Me? Really? It's a friend I know?
-No way, I don't-- -Of course you do.
Someone thoughtful, stays by my side and listens to me
whenever I'm feeling angry.
Actually, she looks like you. Now that I think about it, it's uncanny.
Oh. So that friend must be really, really pretty, right? Like me?
No, not at all. She's quite ugly, you know.
Wait, what? Jeez.
[chuckles softly] I'm just kidding, of course.
The friend I'm talking about is
the thank-you gift you gave me when I…
went to that concert with you from a while back.
[Tae-moo] Anyway, it's a Worry Doll.
It's a doll you can talk to about your worries,
like the things that trouble you.
Oh, so that's what it was.
[sighs deeply]
What are you sighing for?
Is something wrong, Ha-ri?
Oh no, I just yawned just now. Like…
[yawn]
That. I yawned like that just now.
That's a bit harsh, you yawning while on the phone
with your boyfriend.
[chuckles] Oh, it's not that. I just, well…
I didn't really sleep very well last night.
You didn't sleep well?
Are you sure? I heard you snoring.
Hey, what do you mean "I snore?"
[gasps] Wait up, did I really snore?
Not really.
[both softly chuckling]
Hey, Ha-ri.
Did you know?
Know what?
That I honestly feel so…
relieved with everything.
[Tae-moo] It made me very uncomfortable that we
had to keep our relationship a secret…
you know, from my grandfather.
But now that I don't have to hide it anymore from anyone,
it's like a weight's been lifted.
But from now on, I wanna tell everyone about it.
Be seen with you without having to hide from the world.
So…
to do just that, Ha-ri…
Yeah?
We should get…
married…
[beeps]
[stammers] Hello?
The… the call's disconnecting…
[Tae-moo] Hello, Ha-ri?
Are you still there?
Ha-ri, are you there?
Hello? Tae-moo?
I can't hear you talking. Are you still there?
-Ha-ri, I'm… -[line beeping]
Hello, Ha-ri?
What the? Wait, are there any coins around here?
Coins, coins…
[sighs] Damn it.
[whimsical music]
[sighs]
Why did it have to cut off at such an important moment?
[Da-goo] I think I'm gonna send Tae-moo there by next month.
So make sure to take care of the house and the car in New York.
Okay, all right then.
Am I going to the States?
Where have you been just now?
Tell me, Grandfather. What were you talking about?
Sit down real quick.
You haven't even brought this up with me.
[sighs] Are you doing this because of Ha-ri?
Are you doing this to pry us apart? Is that it?
Do you think you can break us up through this?
I know.
Doing this isn't exactly enough to separate you two.
So why are you doing this, then? Because this isn't like you.
Okay, so let's say that I somehow approve
of your relationship with your employee, Ms. Shin.
But then, once people find out you two are dating,
do you think that she'll be able to carry out her work like she used to?
[Da-goo] The employees are surely going to be gossiping about it.
Because sure, you might be fine,
but for someone who's just an employee,
it'll be hard for her to handle all of this.
Go to our branch in the States for two years,
just until the situation here settles down.
Now, for example, if you haven't changed your mind after,
then maybe that's the moment I'll approve.
Sorry, Grandfather.
-Now, Tae-moo, you're-- -Two or 20 years, it doesn't matter.
My feelings aren't going to change.
And now I don't even…
wanna be separated from Ha-ri, even for a bit.
[groans]
I'm gonna marry Ha-ri, Grandfather.
-Tae-moo, what are you-- -That way, nobody can gossip
about this whole situation anymore.
So please, Grandfather.
All we really want is your blessing.
[tired sigh]
Maybe I should have told Tae-moo about what happened.
I should have talked to her first about the whole marriage thing.
[both sighing]
[Sung-hoon] Uh, we should have dinner together this weekend.
Wait, really?
We've been so busy, we haven't been able to go on a proper date.
[Young-seo] I have high standards, okay?
[chuckles]
-Hello, Young-seo. -[door closes]
[gasps]
Dad, it's you. What are you doing here? Did something happen?
Among other things, I just dropped by to see you.
Who is this, dear?
Uh…
Hello there, sir. My name is Cha Sung-hoon. I'm--
The man who's dating my daughter, I assume?
Did you have someone look into what I've been up to?
I have a lot of people who can tell me about it, even without all of that.
I should have introduced myself.
I think Young-seo must have hidden you away since
she didn't want to introduce you to me.
How about the three of us have dinner together?
What are you planning to do here, Dad?
What do you mean, Young-seo? Why would you take it that way,
when I just want to have dinner with my daughter's boyfriend?
[breathes deeply]
Why not just make it tonight? How does that sound?
There you go. You gotta mix up all that filling thoroughly.
I know we're supposed to be helping them and all,
but Team 3 is making us do everything.
You have to look at the bright side.
It's probably better if the people who've been working on it keep making it.
Oh, well. I wanna throw them my letter of resignation like this.
[roars] This is so unfair.
But I can't, since I have to get married one day.
You're getting married?
Wait, are you trying to tell us you're gonna be marrying Ms. Yeo?
What choice do I have? The whole company knows about us.
Gotta man up some day. Be responsible.
[chuckles]
What are you doing?
Spouting garbage again?
Oh, you're not fooling us, Ms. Yeo. You love it!
[all chuckle]
[secretary] Ms. Shin Ha-ri?
Chairman Kang has called for you in his office.
The chairman? He wants to see me now?
[tense music]
I'll be back in a while.
Why'd he ask for her?
[gasps] Is she…
Is Ms. Shin getting fired because of that scandal?
Don't be so quick to jump to conclusions.
Let's just see what happens.
I'm sorry, but why did you call for me, Chairman Kang?
I want you to go down to one of our factories in Daejeon
until this entire situation dies down for good.
Dae…
By Daejeon, you mean…
-Isn't that our distribution center, sir? -Mm-hmm.
But there's nothing for a researcher to do there, sir.
Well, if you don't wanna do that,
then feel free to resign.
Re…
Resign, sir?
[tense music]
Has anything else been posted?
Hmm, no, not really.
But wow, the rich sure are scary, huh?
They wiped out all the articles and gossip.
That employee named Shin Ha-ri, do you think she's still working there?
[nurse] Nah, there's no way. She must have been fired by now.
After all, these rumors that she's dating the owner's grandson
and cheating on him.
Excuse me, what do you mean by all that?
Uh…
Well, tell me. What were you talking about just now?
Hey, where have you--
Why didn't you tell me about it?
What?
Oh. That's, uh--
Of all people, you should have…
You, at the very least, should have told me.
I can't believe this.
Ha-ri must have had a hard time all alone.
And I had no idea.
Are you going to the office right now?
Why don't you wait a little more until your grandfather's calmed down?
She's been through this all alone. What do you mean wait a little more?
I can't do that, Sung-hoon.
[bright music]
[employee] Hello, sir.
You guys, this is huge news! Just now by the…
FOOD PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT TEAM 1
Where's Ha-ri? Tell me where she is.
She went upstairs. Chairman Kang said he wanted to see her.
Yes, it's been a while since she left and she still hasn't come back.
Damn it.
-Hmm. -[door opens]
You're supposed to be in the hospital.
Please, Grandfather. What did you talk about with Ha-ri?
I told her I was sending her down to another branch.
Tied to that, I told her…
resign if she wasn't happy with it.
Did you honestly just…
Look, did you really have to do all this?
You should know, since I'm sure you've heard the rumors.
This company is now in such a monumental mess because of her.
How's that her fault? How is any of it?
If you look at it, it's my fault.
This whole thing happened because…
I ended up liking Ms. Shin first.
I don't think you realize how grave and serious this is.
The board of directors…
could ask you to take responsibility for this dire situation we're in
and ask you to resign.
If that's what ends up happening, Grandfather, then rest assured,
I'll take full responsibility and resign.
So with that said…
please don't do anything to Ha-ri.
Tae-moo!
[groaning sigh]
-Hi! -[Mi-mo] Welcome, come on in!
Come in.
[hiker] Wait, what? That young owner isn't here today? I don't see him around.
Wait, young owner?
-Yes. Please, sit. -[hiker 1] Sure.
Who are you talking about? Are you talking about Ha-ri's father?
[Mi-mo] Honey, could you come out here for a second?
[Joong-hae] Huh? Coming.
-Come here. -What is it?
-[hiker] Oh, my God. -[hiker 2] Oh no, that's not him.
No, no. It's not him.
We remember this tall and handsome guy here.
He was here the last time we visited, you see.
There was this young woman with him.
A young woman and a tall young man?
Oh, are they talking about Ha-ri and Ha-min?
They must be talking about our kids. I mean, they are pretty tall.
[Joong-hae] I guess so.
Oh, there he is! That's the man we're talking about. Yeah.
He's the handsome young man we were looking for.
[Joong-hae] Oh, no, you must've been mistaken. He's not our son.
This gentleman here is my daughter's coworker.
He's not the one you're looking for.
-[hiker] What? -[Joong-hae] Yeah, his name is Mr. Gye.
I'm sure he was the young man from before.
Hi. By any chance is your--
Yes, what is it Mr. Gye?
Um, so what brings you to our restaurant at this hour?
Did Ha-ri come back home? Is she around?
Huh? Ha-ri's not here. She went to work, Mr. Gye.
Uh-huh.
Yes, that's right. Don't you work with her at the office, Mr. Gye?
Huh? Oh, hey!
[Tae-moo] Oh.
-I need to talk to you for a second. -Sure.
I'm so sorry about all that.
I'll introduce myself more officially next time.
Sorry again, Mother, Father.
-Oh. -Sure.
[hiker 2] Isn't that the guy from that day?
Honey, did you sense this strange feeling about him just now?
Mr. Gye seemed weird.
Yeah, I did.
Pardon me, are you telling me to hand in my letter of resignation, sir?
That's correct. As simple as that.
Leave the company. Time to go.
[somber music playing]
I'm afraid that…
that is not something I can comply with.
Beg your pardon?
I simply can't resign like this.
-[quirky music] -I can't.
Do you even realize how hard I've worked for this company?
All of the products I've come up with?
They're in the top five best sellers.
My Bucket List Fish, that one on the top three best sellers.
On top of that, I'm the youngest person to ever be awarded the Mega Hit Award.
Resign? I don't think it makes any sense for me to resign.
If you think love is a crime,
yeah, I'm a criminal. Lock me up.
But to resign? I can't.
Sir, resigning would be a great injustice.
[groans]
I shouldn't have said that last bit.
Ha-ri, you idiot!
You need to learn to pull back sometimes.
[sighs]
She's not picking up my calls.
Is something wrong with her?
It's a bit hard to explain right now.
Do you mind if I could borrow your phone? Sorry, I don't have mine right now.
[sighs]
Please, brother.
It seems you had a fight with my sister, so of course, brother-in-law.
Here you are.
Why did you just call Mr. Gye your brother-in-law?
-Mom? -Ma'am, it's just…
I'm sorry, but we couldn't help but hear
the way you were talking back there, Mr. Gye, but…
I have to ask. Are you and our daughter…
[Mi-mo] Are you two dating, Mr. Gye?
Come on now, tell us! Well? What's your relationship with Ha-ri, huh?
What kind of relationship makes you think
it's okay for you to come to our house just like that, huh? Spit it out!
Ma'am, it's a little-- Let me explain, mother-in-law--
Who in the world are you calling your mother-in-law, huh?
Aren't you damn well over 40 years old? How could someone your age date Ha-ri?
You think you can do whatever you want because you're handsome?
How dare you date her?
Honey, calm down, please. You can't use violence on him.
You should go, hurry.
What do you mean? Go where?
I'll explain later, father-in-law.
And mother-in-law.
There you go with it again, you--
Where do you think you're going?
-[Mi-mo] Mr. Gye! -Mom! Please, will you listen to me?
That's not Mr. Gye. That's go food's president, Mr. Kang.
-That's Kang Tae-moo. -What did you say?
What are you blabbering about?
[Joong-hae] How can that person be…
Come on, I'm being serious here.
It's been so hard keeping it a secret from everybody.
But Mom, our busy days are over.
You're gonna get a rich guy as your son-in-law.
-[Ha-min] Come on, Mom. -Did you say a rich guy?
A… a president?
[Mi-mo] Who's rich?
This is so frustrating.
[sighs]
HA-MIN'S PHONE HE DID NOT STEAL IT
[line ringing]
[automated voice] The number you're trying to reach…
Come on, where are you, Ha-ri?
Don't do this.
[soft music playing]
Hey, Sung-hoon.
Are you sure you'll be okay?
You know, if you don't feel like it, we can go and leave.
My father could change his mind at any moment and throw a fit.
-So why don't we just-- -It's all right, Young-seo.
We have to go through this at some point, anyway.
Come on. Let's go.
[exhales deeply]
So how long have you two been seeing each other?
It's been a little over a month, sir.
Since I'm a father with a daughter I was concerned, so I did some digging.
I found out you don't have parents
and you grew up under Chairman Kang's care, right?
Yes, sir.
[Young-seo's father] If you grew up with Chairman Kang's support,
does that mean you're obligated to stay at go food?
You can't work at a different company?
-You know what? Let's just go. -Young-seo, no.
-Now, Young-seo-- -I've heard enough of this, okay.
Really, why would you ask something so irrelevant like that?
How is it irrelevant info?
When your boyfriend could become my son-in-law.
Son-in-law?
That's right.
You're the only child I have, Young-seo, so who knows, right?
What's wrong with wanting to confirm if my son-in-law
could inherit my hard-earned company?
Wait, let me just get this straight.
Are you saying you approve of my relationship with Sung-hoon?
If I weren't going to approve, why then would I ask him to dinner like this?
[Young-seo's father chuckling]
[Young-seo's father] I know.
I'm aware how stubborn and arrogant I've been.
And you've seen that first hand.
But that only means,
I don't want to be on bad terms with my only daughter anymore.
So why don't we just try to understand each other
a little better and a little bit more?
And move back in too, hmm?
Hey, Young-seo.
All right, fine. But I'll…
need some time to think about going back home, okay?
[laughs softly]
[Young-seo sighs]
What are you thinking about?
Oh, no, it's just about Dad.
You know what they say, right? People do weird things before they die.
Wait, you don't think my dad's sick or something, do you?
[chuckles] I don't think so.
When something good happens…
you should think about it positively.
No need to think about what hasn't happened yet.
I know. I just haven't seen him like that before.
[clicks tongue]
[sneezes]
[Young-seo] Oh, I'm so sorry, Sung-hoon.
Any tissue in here?
None?
Huh?
What's this thing?
It's nothing. Just put it back inside.
[gasps] Hey, this is for me, isn't it?
[Young-seo gasps] A ring?
[Young-seo] A diamond ring?
Wait, are you… proposing?
Well, it's actually your birthday real soon, so I got it.
That's your birthday present.
What, really? So you weren't gonna propose to me or anything?
Uh, no. But I will eventually.
But I haven't gotten your father's full approval yet.
And I don't exactly know how you feel about it.
Well, we got my dad's approval today, didn't we?
Oh, and just so you know, I wanna marry you, too.
What?
So I'm saying…
let's get married.
[Young-seo] Wait, Sung-hoon.
Something wrong?
Why? What's the matter? Do you not wanna marry me?
[sighs]
No, it's not that.
You need to stop saying what I have to say.
Will you marry me, Young-seo?
["Closer" by Song Haye playing]
Oh, seriously? Ha-min's even leaving me voicemails now?
[Tae-moo] Hey Ha-ri, it's me.
Where are you? Why aren't you picking up my calls?
I've looked everywhere but I couldn't find you.
Are you hiding somewhere because you're mad at me?
Please call me back, Ha-ri.
[Tae-moo sighs]
[phone buzzing]
Hello, Ha-ri? Where are you?
I'm in…
mm…
by the Christmas Tree. [chuckles]
I'm here at Namsan Tower.
What are you doing there?
I don't know.
I didn't have anywhere to go, so I was just walking aimlessly.
Well, I don't know.
Well, don't go anywhere then. I'm gonna be there in a few.
Wait…
["Spring Breeze" by New playing]
[panting]
Do you know how much I've been worried?

without saying anything or letting me know.
