I am your No. 1 fan,
Lee Young Ja.
Episode 17
How can you do something like this?
For the past three years,
do you know with what heart I tried to forget you?
How can you play a joke like this on me?
What reason do you have to do this?
Do I need a fancy reason?
What did you say?
My ex-wife became a really famous painter,
I heard of the gallery opening, so I went there out of curiosity.
Even this painting, I liked it when I saw it.
That's why I bought it.
Then you suddenly called, and that's when everything became complicated.
So why did you want something back when someone already bought it? It's making both of us exhausted.
Seriously,
the more I get to know you, you really are something.
After playing me and making a fool out of me, now you are saying that it's my fault?
Then,
what about the things you told me?
What about that heart that comforted and embraced me?
I'm sorry.
There was nothing I could do. I would be funny if I stepped in myself.
That's fake. It's fake. I made a mistake.
I'm sorry. Sorry.
Do you know what kind of person Unnie Young Ja was to me?
"Ah! I've met someone who can understand what I feel."
"I've met someone who recognize the paintings I draw."
I was comforted that much. I was that much thankful.
Let's stop here. I get it. So say no more.
The only thing that I need to apologize to you for
was not saying that I was Lee Young Ja. That's it.
Truthfully, it wasn't easy to reveal that. You firmly believed in it.
It seems like you, Lee Gun, have become the worst in the past three years.
Right.
Well, I can't do anything if you think like that.
Miss Kim Mi Young,
it's really pathetic.
How can it be that for the past three years until now you still haven't changed one bit?
Like a fool, always getting deceived by people,
always believing them.
Just when will you fix that attitude of yours?
So, like a foolish bear...
you are here drawing pictures like this.
Get out!
Right now.
I will.
Before I go, I will give back this painting that you want so much.
I don't know how precious
and how meaningful this painting is to you,
but to me...
it's just one painting.
♬ My tears remember ♬
Get out. (speaking informally)
♬ It fills up your place again ♬
♬ I try erasing, but I can’t erase you ♬
♬ You’ve become my everything ♬
♬ Oh you, I can’t see you, ♬
♬ I can’t hear you ♬
♬ But I’m okay. Goodbyes are sad, ♬
♬ my heart aches ♬
For the past three years, ♬ But if you are happy, ♬
do you know with what heart I tried to forget you? ♬ if you can smile, then I… ♬
That's why you should forget.
You foolish snail.
Just please forget me.
♬ I will shed more tears than today ♬
♬ Like fate, I hope you are happy ♬
♬ Good bye my love ♬
♬ My heart already knew ♬
♬ You’ve become my heart ♬
♬ Oh you, I can’t have you, I can’t touch you ♬
♬ But I’m okay. Endless pain, ♬
♬ tears shed again. But if you are happy, ♬
♬ if you can smile, then I… ♬
♬ I will miss you the more I erase you ♬
♬ I will shed more tears than today ♬
♬ That’s all I need, until the day we meet again ♬
♬ Only you, only you ♬
♬ I’ll wait, it’s only a momentary good bye ♬
♬ Good bye my love ♬
Three years ago, our Jangin Chemicals,
after making a contract with Macau's representative resort to supply amenities,
it has also been showing immense stable growth in China.
That's right. So to aggressively and strategically
advance into the Chinese market, with
an E-commerce site that has high market share in China,
we are planning to launch our company's premium line.
This is the site that made the final selection.
Based on the trust it has built so far, it guarantees to sell only authentic products.
This is an extremely hot site in China!
That's right.
Just as how our CEO always insists on authentic products and
how our Jangin Chemical's slogan represents family and trust,
you can see this as a very fitting place.
CEO.
CEO!
So what you're saying, Secretary Tak, is
that equal to the level of our company,
all luxury items around the world, through that site,
advance into the Chinese market.
That's right. Also.
Worries about the delivery...
Throw those all away. And we can just cha, cha, cha together.
CEO, you also see it, right?
Wrapped in this beautiful package, it is scheduled to be shipped in a very safe manner.
The wrapping is really good. It looks elegant
and clean.
Matching this packaging,
develop our products into the premium line and...
To these consumers. To our customers.
Please put in an effort to safely deliver our Jangin's integrity.
Kang Se Ra
Miss Mi Young, what are you doing?
I'm sorry, Daniel.
The promise I made that I would stay in Korea
until the biennial ends, I don't think I'll be able to keep it.
I want to go back to Paris.
Is it that uncomfortable to be here?
Do you remember the person who bought the Le Soupir before?
Yes.
It was a woman and you said you got in contact with her.
It turned out that person was Lee Gun.
Huh?
I'm sorry, Daniel, for showing you this side of me.
Eat slowly. Why are you drinking so fast?
Today, the alcohol is just smoothly (sool sool) going in.
Is that why it's called alcohol (sool)?
Se Ra. - Huh?
A few days ago, your mother came looking for me.
I heard about it. I'm sorry.
You're having a hard time, right? Being in just a friendly relationship with me.
No.
Let's stop now. Being friends.
Gun... -You should also throw away your lingering feelings.
Our Se Ra has to be happy, too, right?
Why are you like that all of a sudden?
Se Ra,
no matter how much one tries,
no matter how much one struggles,
what's not meant to be doesn't work, I realized.
What's not meant to be
is just not meant to be.
The first project was a huge success,
and there are many offers for the second project.
I'm sad that you're leaving all of a sudden. What should I do?
Because of me, there might be problems with the contract.
I will compensate you for that.
We can just make changes in the contract.
Even when you are in Paris, we are going to continue with our brand business.
Thank you for all your effort.
Right! I received a call that they want you to attend
the event for women advertisers.
You will attend, right?
The commercial that we collaborated with Jangin Chemicals received great attention from women.
I think it will be good as the last event before you go back to Paris. What do you think?
I will think about it.
Mi Young-!
Ellie Kim!
Ji Yeon!
Wow, Unnie! This is really great!
I've always known your talent from the beginning.
You've always been good at drawing.
But why are you going to Paris instead of staying here?
Just because it's more comfortable there.
Still, it can't be as comfortable as Korea, where you family lives.
That's probably right.
Now that you're really doing well,
I have to register you as our user.
I actually have a high percentage of success for re-married couples.
Thank you for emphasizing that this is my second marriage.
If you register,
and I match you with CEO Lee Gun, would it be weird?
What do you mean by that? CEO Lee Gun?
CEO Lee Gun is my VVIP customer.
Well, to be accurate, it was Chairwoman Wang who registered him.
She keeps on asking me to find a woman like you. She asks me to come once a week.
What do you mean that person is going on blind dates?
He probably has a girlfriend though.
What are you saying? Nothing!
He's been perfectly single for three years.
Right now, the Chairwoman is a bit
worried that maybe her grandson has something lacking.
You probably know about it.
How was it after confirming it?
Does he win during the day and lose at night?
Or does he lose during the day and win at night?
Ji Yeon.
By the way, are you sure that person is not with anyone?
What are you doing here?
Ah, it's quite hot today. Do you want to have some beer with me?
You must have been really thirsty for a drink.
Actually, I got rejected today.
Huh? Who did? Lee Gun?
Yes.
He said what's not meant to be will never be.
He said that even being friends is burdensome now.
It might be hard for you right now, but I think this is a good thing.
It would be better to stop liking someone who doesn't like you.
Those people are amazing.
He even lied to chase her away harshly three years ago,
but after seeing her again, he wavers again.
I stayed by his side waiting even though I know that he is sick.
It's all useless.
What do you mean by that? Sick?
What happened to Lee Gun three years ago?
What does that have to do with the two of them breaking up?
That family has a genetic disease. Gun was diagnosed three years ago.
Knowing this, Gun purposely broke up with Kim Mi Young so that it wouldn't be hard on her.
If she knew about this, do you think Kim Mi Young would still be by your side like she is now?
♬ I laugh like a fool ♬
♬ I keep thinking of you, ♬
♬ seems like coincidence ♬
♬ In case you see my heart, ♬
♬ I secretly look at you from far away ♬
♬ I draw you out, then I erase you again ♬
♬ I stand in place and talk to myself again ♬
Dog Poopie!
You're doing well with Mom, right?
♬ When I hold out my hand and hug you tight ♬
♬ My heart wants you, you who is like destiny I love you ♬
Ellie, thanks to you and this painting,
I, too, came to remember
the most beautiful and brightest moments in my life,
so I was really happy.
Even though I'm returning this painting to you,
I will remember you forever.
I will return this painting that you want so much.
Because, to me, it's just one painting.
♬ I think of you as I stop in place ♬
The most precious and shining moment in your life...
is it because it's your work, Ellie Kim?
It's great being under the same sky as you, Ellie Kim.
Do you have a child?
Yes, I do.
A really beautiful child.
In an empty space in your heart...
there's a girl I used to know.
In my eyes,
she is really, really...
Impossible.
How is it that this is all fake?
Mi Young!
Daniel.
Do you want to have a bet on who runs the fastest? The person who loses has to buy drinks.
That makes no sense. - What do you mean "It makes no sense"?
Aigoo.
Aigoo, I'm so tired.
Wow. After I said that, you run after me as if it was a chase.
Thank you for buying me these shoes.
But after buying these shoes, I am seriously regretting my decision. - Why?
I heard of a saying that if you buy someone shoes, they will run away.
After hearing that, I was thinking that maybe I shouldn't have bought them.
In the case that I suddenly lose my memory,
I will assign all of my authority as the CEO of Jangin Chemicals to Chairwoman Wang.
And I would like Chief Secretary Tak Goo Dae to assist Chairwoman Wang
and take on the responsibilities of a management specialist as the CEO.
As for my half brother Lee Yong, he will be promoted to become the Managing Director.
So that he will officially be able to learn to manage the company.
Even if I happen to suddenly faint,
and perhaps something does happen to go wrong,
all these truths must be hidden from Kim Mi Young.
Never, surely without Kim Mi Young knowing!
I would like you to execute the previously stated conditions.
After organizing the statements according to the recordings, these are the conditions of the will.
And I heard that you wanted to add another condition.
I purchased an atelier in France recently.
Is there a casual way to present this to that person?
You should stop writing these useless letters.
Why don't you just explain it to Mi Young?
I...
I don't have the right to do that.
To Mi Young, receiving this kind of will won't be touching.
Instead, she is a person who will be filled with guilt and sorrow.
I don't believe this is for Kim Mi Young.
Mr. CEO, Artist Ellie Kim has made a visit.
I will be leaving first.
Mi Young.
Everything has officially been completed.
For what reason did you visit me?
I am returning the payment you made for the painting.
Look here, Miss Ellie Kim. I have a lot of money.
I believe you have made a nonsensical walk here.
Since this event occurred on my behalf, I also included a penalty payment.
For both of us, the calculation...
It's good to do it accurately.
Why this?
The things written here... What I mean is...
Those are meaningless words that you have written
in order to pretend that you were Lee Young Ja, right?
Yes. Did I do something wrong?
I understand.
Ah, I am leaving for Paris tomorrow.
You're leaving earlier than previously planned.
I don't think Seoul and I match.
Well, that could be the case.
But last time,
the words you spoke about being happy that you were under the same sky as me...
Those were also words spoken by you, not Young Ja, right?
Those were lies that had no sincerity behind them, right?
Kim Mi Young, you are very strange today.
Why do you keep asking those useless questions?
Thinking back knowing that you were Young Ja,
there were so many things that were very strange.
Look here, Miss Ellie Kim,
I am a person that doesn't have time to chat with you right now.
Leave now.
It's very strange, right? - What else is strange?
Why does it seem like you are always nervous around me?
Even after you have revealed that you have been Young Ja.
Aren't you going to leave?
Lawyer Hong.
Oh, Miss Mi Young.
I waited for you because it seemed like you were going to be out quickly.
You are returning to Paris? - Yes.
In the contract you signed with your agency, you promised to stay in Seoul a bit longer.
Things happened that way.
Thankfully, the CEO was understanding.
Ah, I see.
Thank you for paying so much attention in regards to this contract, Lawyer Hong.
Ah, no. It's nothing... Between us.
Look.
Miss Mi Young. - Yes?
With CEO Lee Gun...
do you have any thoughts of getting back with him?
Why are you suddenly talking about this?
Well... You both look good together.
I was wondering why you broke up.
Truthfully, I don't know why either.
Three years ago, why he had to push me away like that...
I don't know the reason either.
At that time,
I was having such a hard time I wasn't able to deeply think about it.
But now, I am a little...
I am starting to get curious about it.
Look, Miss Mi Young...
No, no, ah...
Do you have something you want to tell me?
No, I...
France, no... P-Paris. After you come back, I want to see you.
Yes, me too.
Um, everything is normal.
You are very healthy.
You have taken good care of your body, appropriate for your age.
Yes, I did my best at the company! And my dating life, faithfully!
Well, I am living with this attitude.
But Doctor, why are you suddenly looking after me as well?
I am your household's physician. And you are a descendant of the Lee Family.
So, of course, I must look after you.
Doctor, thank you very much.
But...
You, too, never know when the genetic disease will appear like your hyung-nim.
So don't be too careless.
And try your best like you have been doing.
Yes.
What?!
What do you mean by Hyung-nim's genetic disease?!
Chairman, something is weird with Gun.
I think that the genetic disease has progressed. - Genetic disease?
Yong heard as he went to the physician for a health checkup.
I already knew about it.
But I didn't know that it would occur to Gun.
Mother in law... no...
If the old woman finds out about it, the shock will be tremendous. So, don't tell anyone and keep it to yourself.
Yes, of course.
I will not rashly reveal that information.
Why would I hastily reveal a weakness within our family? What good would that do for our family?
I'm sorry to contact you so suddenly.
I have something I wanted to tell you today.
Yes, go ahead.
Three years ago,
there was a time when we met just you and I, right?
There was.
Do you recall the documents I showed you?
He said he wanted to give you the baby and be done with you.
Of course.
How could I forget that?
Do you still believe that document was drafted by Gun?
Yes.
You've been mistaken, Kim Mi Young.
I...
I did it.
What do you mean?
I mistakenly believed that I could change Gun's mind if you left.
I created it all myself.
Se Ra.
I won't ask to be forgiven.
If something went wrong because of me,
I wanted to correct it now.
Also Gun is currently...
No, I'll stop now.
My pride won't let me go any further.
You unwind the twisted past your way.
This is all I can say.
Hello.
Please sit down over there.
I loved your commercial. -Hello.
- Hello. - Hello.
This is CEO Han.
Hello.
You are very popular!
You're here.
Hello, Artist Ellie Kim.
You're much more beautiful in person.
Ah! Hello.
But...
What?
Are you going to say I look a lot like someone else?
I've met some others that looked just like you in the past.
Of course, we should look identical.
We are triplets.
I'm the oldest. The big sister.
♪ I eat alone, and I alone...! Ohhhh... ♪
I'm babbling again. Ha, ha!
I'm sorry.
Thank you please look fondly on me.
I should be the one asking you.
You heard that we were going to have simple conversation?
Yes.
But I'm not very good at talking, so I don't know if it will be entertaining.
I'm in charge of babbling, so don't worry.
There is some time left. Should we have a cup of tea and wait?
Yes, let's do.
My dance move was just fine, right?
Yes!
Woman of the month, which was chosen by a panel of women advertisers.
We are talking with artist Ellie Kim.
The advertisement image that you've just seen with Jangin Chemical's collaboration..
It is being critically acclaimed that, "it has awoken the somber feminine sentiments with a touch of spring breeze!"
Shall we ask the artist a question?
"In every woman's heart lives a girl."
How did you come about this wondering concept?
That is...
That concept came from...
That concept actually wasn't my thought.
Someone else gave me the inspiration.
Inspiration?
Everyone, inspiration.
This word is like a treasure to us, advertisers! Don't you think?
Who was it?
Who was the person that gave you this wonderful inspiration?
There was a sister that I used to really like, trust and follow.
At first she bought the picture that I cherished the most.
I came to know her as a fan through this.
When things were rough or when I had fallen in a slump...
Always, in my perspective,
she listened to my words,
and warmly embraced me. She was someone that I am very thankful for.
It's not easy to meet someone so special.
Do you still stay in contact with her?
We suddenly lost contact so I don't know where she is right now.
However,
I really want to say thank you to her.
I don't know how it was for her, but
I was sincere.
Everyone. What are you doing? Give her a round of applause.
Here.
How can you leave so abruptly after saying you'd be here for a while?
No matter how much I think about it, I feel more comfortable over there than here.
You're emotionally comfortable there?
It was nice to see you so often,
but that time was too short.
Lettuce Wrap lady! Let's eat.
You're not suppose to come today. Why are you here so suddenly?
(mouths "get out")
What is it? So then what? Also?
So what? Then what?
So what then?
Mom.
Mom, set up a table for the guest.
How can you kick out a customer without feeding him?
Mi Young.
I'll go after I'm done eating.
I need to eat! Eat. Eat!
I enjoyed the meal, Lettuce Wrap Lady.
I really enjoyed it!
Also, let it be known that I won't be back again, so don't worry. Please convey my message.
Convey my words "don't worry, be happy." Make sure you relay it!
I was going to say not to ever come back after eating that rice wrap for the last time anyway. Tell him that.
There is the freedom to dine anywhere in the Republic of Korea,
but that she was petty, petty, petty! Pass that on.
If I told him not to visit my mother, then he should at least pretend that he's making an effort. Tell him that.
I already repressed myself enough to the degree that I felt it was too much. Please tell her that.
Quiet! What are you both doing right now?
Are you training a mutt?!!
Both of you get out if you're done eating.
I'm not going to take obnoxious customers like you!
How can you talk like that to a customer?!
Lettuce Wrap Lady,
stay well.
Stay well.
Aigoo... Crazy punk.
What? Making it seem like he's never going to come back.
Mom, just stop letting him in.
It's good for neither of you.
Even though he's not fated for you,
don't hate him too much.
If you think about it, hating also means liking.
Tomorrow morning, I'll come to say farewell before I go to the airport.
Those two... they for sure have something...
Dog Poopie,
tomorrow.. Mom is leaving Korea tomorrow...
My Dog Poopie... Mom will...
become stronger, so you're
going to wait for me, right?
Our Dog Poopie...
I miss you a lot.
Dog Poopie,
Mom loves Dog Poopie a lot.
Dog Poopie,
your mom is leaving Korea again.
Dad was very greedy, so I'm getting punished right now.
Passport
This recorder has nothing to do with you, so don't press play.
This REALLY has nothing to do with you.
Even though if you press the middle button, it plays.
Don't ever press it. Please.
Suddenly, if I ever lose my memory,
I will assign all my authority as the CEO of the Jangin Chemicals to Chairwoman Wang Bok Soon.
And as for Chief Secretary Tak, as the CEO,
he will help Chairwoman Wang and...
I want to make everything stated here hidden from Kim Mi Young.
Never, forever, hidden from Kim Mi Young,
I would like you to execute everything stated previously.
There mustn't be a disturbance in the operation of the Kim Mi Young foundation.
Also, celebrating Kim Mi Young's birthday every year, too. Very meticulously!
Please check it. - Yes.
You should stop writing these useless letters
and just tell Mi Young.
I... I... don't have the right to do that.
Mi Young.
Oh, Daniel - What're you doing? We have to get going.
I was packing my bags.
Let's go.
Mi Young,
remember when I told you I regretted buying you those shoes?
You did.
Thinking about it...
I am the stupidest person in this world.
Even though I know I'll regret it,
I keep making the same mistakes to see you smile one more time.
What are you doing, Daniel.
If you leave like this, you're never going to forget him.
So just find out now, how he truly feels.
And what he's hiding from you.
Taking you to see him,
out of all the stupid things I've done,
I think this one is the best.
Sister-in-law left us hanging last time.
Is she going to be late again?
Ay.. there's a plane schedule. I think she'll come in a little bit.
No.
My prediction, I don't think she'll come.
Sister-in-law is good at these predictions.
Man, it feels ominous.
If Mi Young doesn't come...
The side dishes you packed for Mi Young,
can I take some to eat?
Stop the talking and just sit still and be quiet.
She probably has things to clear and finish some business.
Mom,
your grandchild, the name is Dog Poopie.
It's a little funny one. Mom,
today is just very bad...
The person I love most...
After you Mom.
The person I love most after Mom is...
going far away...
I couldn't even say bye and just sent her off coolly.
So, I, too, put everything down
and am planning to leave here.
If I stay here, then I will run into her someday.
If I run into her, then even though I know I shouldn't,
I'll be like a stray dog and go crazy for her.
But why did Dad do that?
I... can't even handle one woman.
This disgusting genetic disease,
I don't have the courage
to ask her to endure it with me.
How did he do that to two women?
The fact that his face is shameless is also a strength.
Stay well and have fun
with our Dog Poopie up there.
Until I go there.
He is going to be home, so just stand your ground.
If you call ahead of time, he can just avoid you. So with an unexpected attack.
You can do it right? - Daniel..
I'm sorry...
And thank you.
Ah.. Hurry up and go. If you stay longer, I'm going to want to keep you.
Yes...
I did well... I did well...
Aigoo, Mi Young. Welcome. What brings you here without a phone call?
I apologize for coming so suddenly, Grandmother.
Oh no, don't be sorry.
Morning, night, or day, our Mi Young is always welcome.
Take a seat.
Grandma, Gun...
Oh Gun, he said he had somewhere to go and left this morning.
Huh?
Why are you trying to meet with Gun?
I have something to ask him.
Oh, what are you going to ask him? You can ask me.
I know everything about Gun, as you know.
Oh no, it's okay, Grandma. I think asking him personally is better.
Oh, okay, okay.
It's better for the two involved to solve problems between a woman and a man.
Ayew... In this house...
since Mi Young is here... it is just sparkling everywhere.
Grandmother, is it okay if I wait in his room?
There's no reason to say no. If you can't wait, then you can just live there, just live there.
Ddo dok ddo dok ddo dok ddo ddo ddo ddo dok!
Lookie. Rawr-dduk.
I feel something good coming.
Maybe things will work out between the two.
Ahh... Secretary Tak, why are you calling?
Ahh... Chairwoman, there's a big problem.
Why are you creating a fuss again?
CEO set up a press conference.
Even if I told him not to, he wouldn't listen to me as if he's been bewitched.
What are you saying?
I should have reported to you earlier, but
will you turn on the television right now?
What is he saying?
It is now known that CEO Lee Gun has been diagnosed with a genetic disease..
There will be a big change to Jangin Chemicals' prospective successor.
There will be a press conference soon.
Now there are many reporters outside the company.
I'm Lee Gun.
If you are seeing this...
that means, because of your disgusting genetic disease,
you just let yourself go.
Amnesia.
If you want more details, ask Dr. Octopus and he'll kindly shoot ink at you.
Now listen to what I say very carefully. It's very important.
Okay?
You... have a woman that you love.
Her name is Kim Mi Young and her hometown is Yeoul Island.
She is stupidly very nice.
She takes care of people that are in pain. She's a very nice and lovely woman.
So, how I met her...
You unexpectedly met her in Macau.
Like it was fate, you both made a beautiful child.
That child's name is Dog Poopie.
But... Dog Poopie is not with you now.
Because it went somewhere very far.
You never erased Dog Poopie from your mind.
Our Dog Poopie...
was right by Dad's side and never left
his side because he was having a hard time until recently.
Now... I have to let go...
I have to let go of Snail.
Forget?
Don't forget? Don't forget? Forget?
Hey, you know...
I was sitting at the table.
and looked at Snail's face and got a scoop of rice and ate it.
I looked at the ground and couldn't digest, so I drank water and was coughing...
You know...
I really wanted to sit at the head of the table.
But, I won't be able to sit there forever.
So how can I tell her to stay together?! How can I tell her not to go?! How can I tell her?!
Damn.
Dog Poopie's Dad, -Like the past... ♬ My tears remember. It fills up your ♬
can you not stay with me by my side? ♬ seat again. I try erasing but I can’t ♬
I'm sorry. ♬ erase you ♬
Anyways, you gave up everything on our Dog Poopie. ♬ You’ve become my everything ♬
Even your feelings towards Dog Poopie.. ♬ Oh you, I can’t see you, I can’t hear you ♬
♬ But I’m okay ♬
♬ Goodbyes are sad, my heart aches ♬
♬ But if you are happy, if you can smile, ♬
CEO of Jangin Chemicals,
I am Lee Gun. ♬ I will miss you the more I erase you I will shed more tears than today ♬
♬ Like fate, I won’t ever have anyone like you ♬
~ Preview ~ ♬ Only you, only you ♬
♬ As much as my tears, I hope you are happy ♬ - Look into my eyes and lie to me.
