It's you again.
Why do you always see me this way?
Go. I want to be alone today.
I'm sorry about today.
Senior.
I'm sorry too.
About what?
Because...
I'm about to get myself into trouble.
Hey, Baek Seung Chan. What are you doing?
I'm a bit taken aback right now.
I wanted you to cry comfortably.
You might be embarrassed if other people saw you cry.
You doing this right now...
don't you think it'd attract more attention?
Young people these days...
So? Are you going to keep standing like this?
No... no...
My tears stopped because of you.
One thing I've always noticed about you is that...
you really are quite odd.
But, it's okay. It's cute.
Thanks...
for not leaving when I told you to leave.
If you had left when I asked you to, I would have been so lonely.
It doesn't suit you to be crying by yourself like that.
When you're slightly angry, or swearing, or being tough...
that's when you're cool.
Okay.
By the way, why are you suddenly calling me just 'Senior'?
What happened to the 'nim' at the end? (Honorific)
Yes, Senior... Yes, Senior.
Yes, Senior. Come on, Senior. Don't be like that.
I think she might hit me if I say that.
What is it? Why aren't you answering me? Huh?
Why did you suddenly stop calling me senior with honorifics?
My peer Chang Shik doesn't use honorifics with you.
And Lee Seung Gi and I are only a year apart.
He calls you 'noona' (older sister).
He even drops honorifics completely when he speaks to you.
So? You want to do that too?
Yes, I...
I'm going to just call you senior.
I'm going to take out the 'nim'... from now on.
Okay, go ahead.
Yes, Senior.
The call cannot be connected. Your call will be forwarded to voicemail.
I used to think the easiest thing in the world was...
getting an angry Ye Jin happy again.
Here.
Alright!
Gosh, seriously.
What?
Cheers! Feel better, feel better.
But, she has to come home first in order for me to make her feel better.
Gosh, that girl.
Going around so late at night. It's dangerous.
What is it?
This isn't right.
I can't go crawling back into Ra Joon Mo's house in this situation.
I just can't. You go home.
Where will you go?
- I'm going to sleep at the office. - What?
I can sleep in the night duty room or in the office.
Still, that's kind of...
What's wrong with that? We sleep while working all the time.
- Let go, I'm going to go. - Yes, but still...
If you feel that way, then I'll go with you too.
Oh my my! What is... what is this?
Scissors?
Ra Joon Mo's gone insane.
What's he doing to my baby?
If you want this bag to remain safe, come home within 30 minutes.
If you don't, I cannot guarantee its safety.
Oh, what do I do! He chose my most expensive one!
Seung Chan, what should I do?
This shameful jerk. He better not touch my bag!
You're dead, Ra Joon Mo!
- 24 minutes. - Where's my bag?
I'm sorry about earlier today.
Forget it! Give me my bag.
- Give it to me. - I said, I'm sorry.
- Seriously... - I'm sorry about before and...
I'm sorry about lying last time.
Look, I'm giving you an 'apple'. (Korean homonym for sorry)
Hey, are you a child?
That's so immature, it's not even funny.
Anyways, don't talk about leaving.
Just stay here until your apartment is ready for you to move-in.
Depends on how you behave.
Cindy.
This morning, someone sent me something that's going around the stock market.
There's talk of you getting into a physical fight with a PD and breaking your leg.
Some nonsense rumor seems to be going around.
Why concern yourself with nonsense talk?
Once she starts working today, all those rumors will die down.
That's right. That's why I'm sending you to Japan.
I know your leg is still in pain. Mom doesn't feel good sending you either.
Cindy. Right now, you may be upset at me.
But when it comes to rumors, we need to nip it in the bud.
If you just leave it, it takes off and gets a life of its own.
Later, it spreads so much that it becomes harder to stop.
I'm not worried about it.
You know how to play the media.
You're all grown up, Cindy.
There was a time you cried for your mom in the practice room...
saying you wanted go home.
Yes, I know.
Now, the mother I missed is gone and the home is gone too.
I think I've changed a lot.
You're departing from Kimpo, right? Mom will drive you.
No, it's okay. My manager is coming right now.
Senior!
- Oh! Baek Seung Chan! - Are you on your way to work?
No, I'm going to the hospital to get my stitches removed.
Oh. Get in. I have my meeting at lunch. I can go in a little later today.
Oh yeah? Should I do that then?
It's already clean. Stop cleaning.
It's way cleaner than my car.
Seat belt.
Do you think it's a celebrity?
Oh my.
Hey.
Seeing that everyone's running, it must be someone famous.
I wonder if it's someone I know.
Yes, Chief.
Yes, I got the contact info.
I'll contact them as soon as I get to the airport.
Yes. I won't make that mistake again.
[Episode 7 - Understanding How to Play the Media]
Cindy, you are upset, right?
Honestly, I think CEO Byun is going too far.
You're still in a cast and she wants you to go to events?
But, what can we do? Let's take a break when we come back.
I'll request for one.
Cindy?
What is this situation about?
What do you mean?
Haven't you all ever hidden from people before?
No, I've never.
Is that what you're doing right now? As soon as you got discharged?
But, why are you getting in this car?
Look here, Cindy... We don't really have that kind of relationship. Am I wrong?
Not like we help each other with escape plans if one of us want to lay low.
Or, providing a safe hideaway.
Well, I'll depart for now.
Hey! What depart? We haven't settled anything yet.
Since I paid for the parking in advance
I have to leave the lot in ten minutes. Eight minutes have passed now...
This is nuts!
Let's just go.
PD Baek Seung Chan is very sensitive to late fees and additional charges.
Okay fine. Let's get out of here. We'll get out and then talk.
Okay, fine. For now, I'll accept it.
It's not where we don't know each other
and you were in a rush. So yes, you can jump into this car.
But, you made the decision to get in so there's no responsibility on our part.
I'm correct so far, right?
Do you have a wet tissue?
Hey, look here Cindy...
Okay, I know I look tough on the outside.
But, that doesn't mean I'm not scared of your CEO.
I am scared of her too.
I did stand up to her in the hospital room that day.
But, in that moment, I was scared too.
Hey, Seung Chan. You saw it too.
CEO Byun slapped that manager across the face.
Yes, last time...
when I said 'ssan ma yi' to CEO Byun
I thought she was going to spit fire at me.
Yeah, that's right.
Hey... You said 'ssan ma yi' to CEO Byun?
Yes.
You must be crazy. Didn't she beat you?
Right then, Joon Mo came.
Joon Mo? He butts in everywhere.
So? What did Joon Mo say? Tell me. Huh?
Let me off at the taxi stand.
You're getting off? Where are you going to go?
I'll take care of myself... though I don't have any money for a taxi.
You don't even have any money! You haven't thought this through at all.
Where do you live, Cindy? We'll take you home.
I can't go home. I'm supposed to be hiding. It's weird if I go home.
Then not your current home, but your parents' place or something.
- It's a bit far... - Gosh.
Then what will you do! Then, what about friends or something?
Ah, Cindy doesn't have any...
I told you. I have friends.
They're just really busy, that's all.
You're truly making me crazy.
You have no money, friends that are busy
- and a leg in that condition! - Yes I know...
I know you didn't do this on purpose, PD Tak.
It would be so much better if, at least, my leg wasn't like this.
It must not be healed yet, when I move it... Ouch!
What! Say that again?
The thing is... She definitely got in the car...
but when he turned around... she had disappeared.
What kind of idiotic nonsense is that? Where is Manager Park?
Well...
Rather than tell CEO Byun that I've lost Cindy...
I'll go into a cage with wild beasts. Please don't look for me.
He's gone into hiding too... because he's scared of you.
Cindy's cell phone is turned off. What should I do?
What do you mean, what? She's about to miss her scheduled events!
Find her right this instant.
- Search any place she might go. - Yes.
You know how it is.
I have my circumstances.
I'm not in a situation where I can bring someone into my place.
At my place, there are my parents, and my brother who's separated.
Also, my sister in junior high...
It sounds all okay except your sister in junior high.
She'll start rumors right away.
Yeah. She's more than capable.
Cindy, what if we lent you money and you went to a hotel?
What if you went to a high-end, luxury hotel?
You could rest a few days and relax while looking out on the Han River.
Start with the high-end, luxury hotels in Seoul.
She hates germs so she won't stay just anywhere.
If she's not in Seoul, look in Busan and Jeju Island. Look everywhere!
CEO Byun knows me too well.
She's probably searching there already.
Then, what do you want me to do?
I'll only stay for four days.
Since I started as a trainee... I haven't rested a day in ten years.
I just want to rest for four days.
Hey, why are you looking at me like that?
Huh? What is that?
Anyways, Cindy's agency says there won't be any issue with the next shoot.
The way I see it, it won't happen.
So, for that day only, let's consider an alternate guest.
But, Cindy's going to some event in Japan today.
Doesn't that mean she'd be able to do our program too?
There's a rumor that she didn't show up for that scheduled event.
Oh really?
They say Cindy didn't get on the plane.
The reporters at the airport didn't get anything because she didn't show.
Maybe she's still in the hospital.
Pictures of her hospital discharge were on the internet a while ago.
Maybe she went into hiding.
What's wrong with you?
Sorry...
I... choked...
Hey, does that even make sense? Do you know what CEO Byun is like?
She has Cindy in the palm of her hand.
Even if she wanted to go into hiding, she has nowhere to go.
Wow, I actually did it. I actually went and did it.
I helped you with your escape.
I even got you a hiding place.
So, you live here with PD Joon Mo?
No! I explained a hundred times and you said you understood.
- What kind of remark is that? - I got it.
So, you're not living together...
We're just sharing an address... temporarily.
That's my younger brother's room.
- Do you want to see his room? - Oh no, it's okay.
I really do understand.
You said you understood before too!
So, you and I are in a similar situation right now.
Similar? How?
We have nowhere to go, so we're temporarily living here.
I understand very well.
If she's missing her scheduled events, has Cindy gone into hiding?
That is the question.
If that's the case, does she have a man?
- That's right. That so true. - She has a guy. It's a man.
So, she has a guy and that's why she's rebelling and going into hiding.
Do you think the man is a celebrity?
An idol?
I know who almost all the idols are dating.
I don't think it's Cindy.
- Then, a rich chaebol? - That's got to be it.
If you're with someone that rich, who cares about contract penalties?
That's why she didn't show up.
Do you think she went to a luxury hotel with her new, rich boyfriend?
Wow, Paris.
What rich man?
They don't know anything.
This is a hemp cloth pillow.
My mom sent it for me to use.
I haven't tried it yet, but I'll let you borrow it. Okay?
This is really precious.
You must really like pink, Producer.
What?
Well, I didn't expect your walls to be pink like this.
You don't look the type.
Did you expect my walls to be leopard print or something?
No, that's not what I meant. It was just so unexpected.
Producer, can I have some water?
- Hot or cold water? - Cold water.
Just drink lukewarm water. Why have cold water when you're not feeling well?
I'm sorry, but I don't really like lukewarm water.
You could've, at least, put a lime here.
A... a what?
You don't have lime at home? Then, a lemon?
We only have oranges in this house.
Producer, we heard back from the amusement park.
They say we've got to do a separate contract for the crew's lodgings.
They'd like you to see the area you'll be using for outdoor sleeping yourself.
You didn't see it last time.
I only have time tomorrow.
If I go after the meeting tomorrow...
I could leave around five and get there around six.
Isn't that too late?
Well, we'll be shooting there at night anyways...
it wouldn't be a bad idea to see it at night time.
You should just go to work.
It's my day off today, so I'll just stay home.
But, you can't tell Joon Mo anything.
Why not?
When Joon Mo hears these things, he can't control his facial expression.
Can you control your face? I'm not sure that you can either.
No, I can do a good poker face.
Anyways, you need to be careful. Okay?
Oh, Baek Seung Chan.
You should come tomorrow too. We need to take pictures.
- Okay. - See you.
What is it? You have something to say?
- Yes, I have something to tell you. - What is it?
As for Joon Mo, give him a hint before he goes home.
- Truthfully, at your house... - Joon Mo!
Tae Ho wants to go for a drink. You want to go?
Sure, I'll go.
- What about Ye Jin? - Oh, Ye Jin cannot go!
I don't think she's at work today.
Oh, that's right.
She took a day off to go to the hospital today.
Then, it'll just be us.
Do you want to come too?
- No, that's fine. - You said you wanted to say something.
No... no.
What are you doing?
I don't think the lines match up.
I'll do it again.
Oh, you're really good. I thought you wouldn't have done this before.
I don't like to see things unorganized.
- Who is it? - It's Seung Chan.
- I bought some limes. - Oh okay.
Who puts lime in their water at home? You're just too much.
I'll get going now.
- Okay, get going then. - Stay for dinner...
- Do you want to stay for dinner? - Yes.
If you'll feed me...
What are you going to make?
I'll be fine as long as you have feta cheese, lentil beans, and quinoa.
Qui... what?
There are x-files up already. (Gossip)
What kind of 'x-files'?
'The agency can't handle Cindy.'
'They have a bad relationship and contract renewal is unlikely.'
'She's on a honeymoon in Europe with a rich chaebol.'
You couldn't find her and now look at these dirty rumors!
If you found her and she went back on schedule, this would all go away.
Trying to find her without anyone knowing she's missing is one thing.
Also, she's never had anyone she's been friendly with or places she'd hide.
But, the biggest problem is... she's never been off the grid like this.
I'm worried that something's happened or she's been in an accident.
What if she's been kidnapped?
This won't do.
Yes, we should report this to the police.
Cindy has disappeared.
You want to tell the whole world?
Then... what should we do?
Have you heard from CEO Byun?
No, I haven't.
I heard this today.
They say Cindy met a rich man and is in a hotel in Paris.
Her leg is in a cast. How could she be in Paris?
I heard it too.
Someone saw her walking along the Champs-Elysees.
Cindy's contract is almost ending with CEO Byun.
Now that she's met a rich man, she'll no longer be bound to the agency.
So, maybe now she's hiding in a foreign country.
How would I know? Stop talking about that.
Hey, did you see the outfit that Go Yang Mi from admin from wearing?
Where would I get the time to go see what Go Yang Mi is wearing?
I've been checking daily. She never wears the same thing twice.
Her clothes aren't from regular stores.
They're all really expensive stuff!
Tae Ho, shouldn't he have more work to do?
Why would you be checking something like that?
Hey, think about it.
How could someone buy all that on an Administrator’s income?
She drives a really expensive car too.
She does whatever she wants at work.
Without a connection to some high-ranking official...
Here he goes again with this nonsense.
- Excuse me, please change the grill! - Coming.
[Cindy]
This phone is turned off. Your call will be forwarded to voicemail.
Oh! Hey...
Is this your place or something?
Why are you setting the table?
Oh, that's... well...
Does your arm hurt that much that you can't set the table?
No, the truth is Joon Mo...
Then, you should order something or ask me to buy you something.
Is my house the town public square?
Why don't you invite all your friends and have your old schoolmates too?
You should invite everyone that you know.
Gosh... move.
Hi, Producer.
Cin... Cindy!
I'm just... so startled.
I can't...
I have no words.
What are you thinking bringing her here?
I didn't do it because I wanted to.
I felt so bad for her.
Having nowhere to go is just... and it's not that she's a stranger.
Okay...
It's great that you're feeling sympathy and you're eager to help.
But, why does it have to be my house? Why?
Okay, since you are the homeowner, you make the decision.
If you call CEO Byun and tell her, that's the simplest way.
What she does to her after is none of your concern, right?
Why are you all doing this to me? Huh?
I'm the only one that's trash? Just me?
Oh, gosh! Really?
Gosh...
Champs-Elysees in Paris...
Rumors of you in luxury hotels.
But here you are, eating dried seaweed and rice. Gosh.
My place is the luxury hotel.
I usually can't eat this kind of food.
Salty and spicy food, especially soup like this.
- Who made this? - Who else? I made it.
It's really delicious.
- Really? Eat lots. - I will.
Goodness!
Anyways, I asked earlier and you don't have any lentil beans.
You don't have feta cheese or quinoa either.
So, I'm forced to eat this today.
I'd be grateful if you prepared what I need tomorrow.
I can't continue eating salt like this.
You're planning to stay tomorrow too?
I'll be going now.
Ah... okay.
Oh, PD... I had a question to ask.
- Just a moment. - Okay.
Why did you underline this part here?
Oh, I do that when I enjoy a specific passage.
I can't understand it at all. It's too hard.
Which part, exactly?
Well, for example...
The bird breaks the egg and hatches. The egg is the world.
Those that want to be born must break one world.
This refers to the universal characteristic of all humans.
Our feeble-mindedness, idleness, and fearfulness...
we must break through all that in order to advance into a new world.
So, the bird represents man.
The egg represents the existing society.
It's like the environment, law, and human relationships.
It's stable, but at the same time, it's also stagnant.
If humans can break out of that, you will gain a new world.
You will gain a true freedom. That's pretty much what...
In my personal opinion...
I think in order for a person to grow, there needs to be pain and sacrifice.
That's my interpretation of it.
- Pain and sacrifice. - Yes.
Those are my thoughts.
Your thoughts...
What?
CEO Byun.
What? CEO Byun?
I'm scared...
- Hello. - PD Ra. This CEO Byun.
- I'm in front of your house. - In front of my house?
Alright.
I'm sorry. I'll just go.
Just stay put. I'll see what she has to say.
How did you know where I lived?
Don't you remember PD Ra?
I came here once five years ago.
Ah... you did.
You heard about my Cindy, right?
Yes, a little.
By any chance, is there anything you know about this incident?
Of course... I don't know anything.
Since you are the PD of the program Cindy is currently on...
I'm going to be completely open with you.
Cindy is currently off the grid.
She's never done anything like this before.
It's like she's going through a late puberty.
She's giving me a headache lately.
Since she's gone into hiding, there's talk of conflict with the agency.
Even talk of her running off with a rich boyfriend.
There's so many x-files of her spreading here and there.
Well, if none of them are true then it's not really important.
PD Ra...
We used to stop the morning dailies from going to press by pulling the plug
on the rotary press machines. That's how long I've been in this industry.
Back then and even now... there's one thing that's the scariest.
It's the hypothetical.
Whatever that really could have happened.
She could be guilty of it. All that speculation.
Rumors, talk... if it's not true, so what?
'Someone Said' communication. No one can withstand it.
Tomorrow morning, many reporters will be calling.
You and I need to have our stories straight.
Cindy needed to rest so she is safe and resting well.
There is nothing wrong with her. I want you to say that.
I came to ask you that favor.
Sure, CEO Byun.
Because, Cindy really is resting very well.
That's a relief. I thought she knew everything. I was worried.
Me too. I was nervous because I wasn't sure if she knew or not.
My throat is all dry.
Wow!
Who did all this?
You're amazing.
Who wants beer?
You said you don't drink beer.
That's because I didn't want my face to get bloated for work.
I'm okay today. I don't have to work tomorrow.
Cindy, I didn't expect it from you. You're so good at organizing.
Joon Mo, she organized all the wooden chopsticks in the drawer.
The kimbap store's in one place and the Chinese food store's in the other.
Be honest, you're glad Cindy's here to organize the house, aren't you?
Of course!
You're happy inside because CEO Byun is running around looking for Cindy, right?
Of course.
You show off and brought Cindy here to my place...
But, you're just making up for getting her hurt, right?
Of course.
You, be honest...
You really like having a pretty and young celebrity like this in your house.
Of course! I like it.
What are you guys doing?
We always play like this when we drink.
The 'Of Course' game. They used to play this on the X-man show.
You have to answer 'of course' no matter what.
Cindy might not know what we're talking about since she's so young, right?
Of course.
What was that?
Are you trying to mess with me right now?
- Of course. - Oh...
Okay, let's do it then.
Cindy, you came here because you don't have any friends, right?
Of course.
You.
You're living here because you don't have money, right?
Of course.
You purposely took your jacket off last time just to screw me over, right?
Of course.
I swear...
You can never date a guy more than 3 months, so you dump them, right?
Oh my gosh, how do you know that?
- Joon Mo, did you tell her? - No.
She and I are not that close.
- So you really didn't tell her? - No!
Then how did you find out?
You should've held back and said 'of course.'
- You're laughing? Let's play. - What?
When you were attending Seoul University, everyone called you a genius.
Now that you're working at the station, everyone calls you an idiot.
It's unfair, isn't it?
Of course... Senior.
May I say 'You?'
- It's just a game. Who cares? Go ahead. - Of course, of course.
- Ye Jin, you... - 'Ye Jin, you?'....
You know you're much more prettier than you think, right?
- Are you drunk? Huh? - Of course!
You look a bit ditzy at first.
But the more I look at you, the cuter you are. You know that, right?
Of course.
What the heck are you two doing?
You know you're more attractive when you're angry, right?
- Of course! - Goodness, give me a break.
You know this is why I like you, right?
Of course.
Seriously, I'm at a loss for words right now.
More than PD Joon Mo?
Of course!
Hey! You've known me much longer than him! You like him more than me?
- Yeah. - Seriously.
You like me too, right?
Of course.
Are you guys teaming up and playing Go-Stop right now?
What are you talking about? You're the only who doesn't know!
The juniors love me and respect me the most! Right, Baek Seung Chan? Huh?
- See? - Yeah right.
Search thoroughly and see if there are any clues.
Yes, ma'am. You go over there and you in that room. Quickly!
Manager Kim, call Lawyer Han tomorrow morning
and make sure we don't pay for the breached contract.
All that money belongs to us.
- All of it. - Yes, ma'am.
I... made my debut when I was 13 years old.
I haven't done anything that I've wanted to do.
I don't doubt it.
What could you possibly have done working underneath that woman?
I haven't experienced school life properly.
I've never gone to an MT before.
And I've never drunk properly, either.
If you don't know how to drink, you don't know life!
What do I know?
I don't even really know how you're supposed to drink too.
- Here you go. - Oh thanks.
Everyone, drink up.
I bet you guys never tasted the likes of this before.
What do I know?
I debuted at the age of 13.
I don't know anything.
I debuted when I was 13 years old
so I've been in this business for ten years now.
- In idol years, I'm 60 years old. - Ah.
I debuted when I was 13 years old. 13 years old. Me. 13 years old.
She's talking about the same thing over and over again.
She's an obnoxious drunk.
Yes, it seems that way.
A person should have a clean habit when they drink.
Ye Jin is not an obnoxious drunk.
Here it comes.
Ye Jin really hates people who are bad drinkers!
It seems that person has come right now.
- Hey, let's wrap it up... - Seung Chan.
- before it gets any worse. - Ye Jin wants to do a second round.
A second round.
- Is this Elisa? Hey... - Ye Jin wants to do a second round!
It's me, Cindy.
- Where are you going? - I'm so drunk right now.
- No, I'm more pitiful. - Where are we going?
- I don't want to go to the roof! - When I was 13 years old...
if I hadn't gone to the amusement park...
What is the matter with her?
- What does a 13-year old know? - Did you just laugh at me right now?
What does a 13-year old know? I debuted when I was 13 years old...
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
- I'm sorry. - I don't want to!
I want to go home! Come on, guys!
- Senior... - Ye Jin wants to do a second round!
- Let's go! Let's go! - What does a 13-year old know?
Cindy, stop. You're going to get in big trouble.
- I... - Seung Chan!
- When I was 13 years old... - Joon Mo!
I don't know! I really want to go!
What's wrong with you guys? Come on, let's go!
- I'm so sorry. - You guys.
Shouldn't you go back today?
She said she's going to rest for four days.
CEO Byun won't stand for it if you keep missing your appointments.
I'm sure she's going to do something.
I think that's for the best too.
It's...
It's been ten years since I've eaten a homemade meal on my birthday.
It's your birthday?
Really?
- It is her birthday today. - You're right.
You were born at the perfect time. It's not too hot or cold.
- Congratulation... - You should've made seaweed soup!
- Why did you make pollack soup? - Did I know it was her birthday today?
Cindy, what do you want to eat?
Joon Mo, let's throw a birthday party for Cindy tonight. Huh?
I can't tonight. I have to finish up the inspection from last time.
- The amusement park. - The amusement park?
- Where? - Yongin.
Can't you take me with you?
How can you go there? Have you forgotten you're in hiding right now?
You said you're going in the evening.
There's a perfectly good reason why I have to go.
Please take me with you.
Oh yeah? Okay, sure.
How can I say no when she's looking at me with those puppy dog eyes?
Do you want to come along as well?
I have a dinner meeting tonight.
Depending upon the situation, I'll let you know later.
Did you get in touch with Reporter Min?
Yes, he's preparing for the exclusive interview as we speak.
- Write this down. - Yes, ma'am.
'Cindy, is taking a break at an undisclosed location.'
'She is in the middle of healing her body and soul.'
'The exact details cannot be revealed.'
'It seems the emotional shock is huge.'
Ah... and put this at the end.
- On the other hand...' - 'On the other hand...'
'Not too long ago...'
'Cindy was in the middle of recording a special for a certain station.'
'On stage...'
'She got injured due to the fault of the female head PD'
'and was admitted to the hospital.'
Why is this incident suddenly brought up here?
They're talking about what really happened that day.
It's as if they're implying that Cindy was mentally traumatized
because there's something going on between her and that PD.
That's what it seems like.
Like she was hurt intentionally.
That's what it sounds like. I'm not the only one who feels that, right?
Yes. Everyone seems to feel that way.
What?
There's a vote going on at Cindy's fan site.
What vote?
'Was Cindy's accident an act of deliberation or not?'
[Was Cindy's accident a deliberate act or not?]
Why would I deliberately hurt her? Does this make sense? Huh?
As of now, 85 percent of the votes are leaning towards malicious intent.
Before it was only 60 percent.
The situation is going towards a bad direction.
Do you think they know that it's me? Huh?
Among all the music producers working at a public broadcasting station...
How many Team O producers are there?
Right?
It's only me, right?
I saved Cindy and I got hurt in the process!
And if they knew what I was doing right now...
Worshipping me as a hero wouldn't be enough!
What are you doing?
Forget it! Just forget it!
I'm not afraid of those negative comments.
They're just a bunch of yapping idiots hiding behind their monitors.
[Tak Ye Jin, you're out]
When I said they were just a bunch of yapping idiots...
I admit it was rash of me to say.
I see that they actually carry out their threats.
They've got a lot of drive.
Stop recording now, okay?
- What the heck is this? - I know.
Ye Jin, It's a first to have a PD put a guest in the hospital by pushing her.
And getting all these phone calls from the press is a first too.
This is really unfair!
Sue them for sending an incorrect press release
or take this up with the media arbitration committee.
What are you guys doing right now?
It's a bit unclear.
Media wise, this situation isn't totally our responsibility.
How is it not? The implication is exactly that!
We can't sue based on implication.
They're saying it might've been a possibility.
There's a chance something like that could've happened.
She might be guilty of it.
Rumors, gossiping, if not, it doesn't matter.
Whatever form of communication it is, there's no way you can stop this.
CEO Byun is turning the blame to Ye Jin right now!
- Hello, PD Ye Jin. - Hello.
Hello.
Are you okay?
She's not okay.
Yeah, it's me. I'm the Team O PD, okay?
- Isn't that PD Ye Jin? - I'm fine! I'm really fine!
My car got damaged a bit, that's all!
I'm fine.
- Senior. - Hey.
Are you okay?
About what?
There's been a lot of talking going on after the press release.
I heard someone wrote on your car...
Seriously, Cindy's fans must be really strong.
You saw last time too. They all looked like athletes.
They were this big.
But, I'm fine!
These false rumors will fade in time when they realize it's not true.
It's not a big deal.
'Message is here.'
What is going on?
I am seriously getting chewed out here, aren't I?
CEO Byun really knows how to manipulate the media.
She's having fun messing with me.
Seriously.
How did they get your number?
I don't know.
The phone number stuck on your car window.
Oh my gosh, maybe it was because of that.
First, take that off. In the meantime, you have to be careful.
Someone might pop out of nowhere and hurt you.
No way! Forget it, let's go.
What are you doing?
That motorcycle is suspicious too.
Look. Yeah, how suspicious is that?
What's suspicious?
Seriously, stop overreacting! I almost got hurt because of you!
Let's go.
What is the matter with you? I swear, you're fussing for nothing!
Hello, PD Tak Ye Jin.
Yes, that's me. Who are you...
Don't you know who I am?
I'm not really sure...
Goodness, how upsetting.
Who are you again? I can't recall...
Who is this person?
What are you doing? Let go. Seriously, what's wrong with you?
You know him?
Producer Tak, you must doing well lately.
It's been a long time since I've seen you.
It's me, Myung Chul! I used to be 4Minute's manager a long time ago!
Myung Chul, why did you gain so much weight? I almost didn't recognize you!
You scared me there for a minute!
Who is this person?
PD Tak, you're as skillful as ever!
No, I'm... I'm a nobody.
I'm... okay, go ahead and talk.
- Let's talk later, Myung Chul. - Okay, Producer. Goodbye.
- Come here. - Senior.
I really thought he was a suspicious person.
What were you going to do if he really was? He's twice your size.
Still, the situation is actually quite different when it really happens.
And also...
'Do you know this person?'
Your words are getting quite short lately.
That's because... I was pretending to act tough.
Stop overreacting!
Someone might get the wrong idea and think I was truly being threatened!
I hate being portrayed that way.
Still, the car vandalism and the strange texts are legally considered a threat!
You have to be careful!
Senior.
Miss.
The plastic bottle and the cap should be separated...
Very good. Just like that.
Miss, you shouldn't throw away these gas cans like this...
I have to put a hole in it first.
Yes, that's right. Just like this.
Did you wash each can separately in water?
- Yes. - Why?
- It's much cleaner that way. - Oh my.
My word, how can a young lady know all this?
Young ladies these days don't know any of this!
They dispose the food and egg shells together!
- Unbelievable, that's regular trash. - That's what I'm saying.
- Banana peel? - Food waste.
- Chestnut and peanut shells? - Regular trash.
- Meat and intestines? - Food waste.
You're precise.
Miss, would you like to work with us?
Every Thursday morning, we get together and do community work.
It sounds interesting, but I'm only staying here temporarily. I'm sorry.
I can't believe there's a sweet girl like that these days.
She even took off all the labels.
Oh my word. Oh my goodness.
- It's really annoying. - I only need a little.
I'm having a secret affair? What else?
Doesn't it look like she's hiding a lot of secrets?
She's not cheerful and she always has a straight face on.
In some ways, it's pitiful.
She has nothing to look forward to, so she's obsessed with toners and A4 paper.
Move.
Are you going up to the first floor?
Yes.
- Second floor basement. - I'm going up to the first floor.
'Breaking a sneaky hand is not a crime.'
What? What did you say?
It means watch your mouth.
- It's a Russian adage. - I see.
PD Kim Hong Soon, if you talk behind my back again...
I swear... I really will break your hand.
Duly noted.
Shall I give you a taste right now?
No, that's not necessary. I promise to be careful.
You better.
What about PD Tak?
She took her car to the body shop for some maintenance.
She said she'll meet us there as soon as it's done.
The body shop? Why?
- That's because... - Just...
She just needed some tuning done.
What did you do today?
- Weren't you bored? - Not at all.
There were a lot of things that needed to be taken care of in your house.
I did some recycling and I took a nap too.
Ah, all I did was turn off my phone and not surf the internet.
That alone was so nice. I had so much time on my hands too.
That's great. Good job.
I heard it was your birthday today.
Happy birthday, Cindy.
That's it?
- Then... - You have to play with me.
Other than going to an event...
it's been ten years since I've gone somewhere just for fun.
I'm so excited.
Please sit here.
- It's okay, I can walk. - No, you can't!
This place is huge. Your injury might get worse if you walk.
Just sit down. No one will recognize you in this wheelchair and with that hat on.
Sit.
Let's go.
I'm going to meet the PR manager here
and follow up on the lodging and several other things.
You go and take pictures of the locations I mentioned.
- And take good care of Cindy. - Yes, I understand.
Go.
Seriously, what is taking her so long?
It's all done. It took some time to get the writing off.
I'll call you again when I get to the parking lot.
- How much do I have to pay? - Ah yes...
- Can I pay with my card? - Sure.
How did they get your number?
I don't know.
Ah! The number stuck on the front of your car.
Oh my gosh, is it because of that?
First, take that off and be careful for now.
Someone might pop out of nowhere and try to hurt you.
Anyways, he's such a drama queen.
I'm serious! She spun me around like a dreidel and slammed me against the wall!
Don't you feel sorry towards your muscles?
I'm going nuts here! I swear!
Look at how my hands are trembling! Look, look, look!
- Here. - Put some salt on it.
Cindy.
Where are you?
Help me, I'm dying here!
They won't be able to sleep if they go on the Viking.
What is going on here?
[It was not deliberate]
[Understanding Media Play] [You cannot hide the truth by simple majority]
This place is still the same.
I came here ten years ago for my birthday.
If it was ten years ago, then you were only 13 years old.
You must've come with your parents.
That day...
It would've been nice if I hadn't come here.
Why?
I met CEO Byun here for the first time.
You've heard about it, right? It's called street casting.
Are you saying you regret coming here
and you're not happy with your life right now?
I know it's hectic, there's no personal time for yourself
and there are some difficult aspects.
But, I believe there are also good aspects as well.
Like what?
All there's left now in my life... is for everything to go downhill.
Starting today, I'm only 23 years old.
This whole time I was too busy making it to the top.
That's why the only thing left is to go downhill from here.
So, what do you think is the good part?
In my mother's case...
she likes the singer Jung Yong Rok.
When she listens to songs like 'My crybaby lover'
or 'Write down your love with a pencil...'
She said she still gets butterflies in her stomach.
Because it reminds her of the time when she was young and in love.
To be a star of your generation...
Somehow, you're kind of like an icon in that era.
Even if weren't a famous star as you are now
when people listen to your songs...
they will probably think of the best days of their lives
and you at the same time.
I believe that to be very meaningful.
I guess that's true.
I never thought of it that way.
My mom liked the movie actor, Jang Gu Kyung.
My dad said the only way he could live with my mom
was if he bought 100 chocolate bars that Jang Gu Kyung was promoting.
Your mother must've been sad when he passed away.
No matter how much I think about it...
It would've been nice if I just hadn't come here.
We lived in Chunchun.
I begged my parents to bring me here because it was my birthday that day.
After I met CEO Byun...
I pretty much lived in the practice room at Seoul.
My parents came to see me twice a month.
But...
Cindy, I'm your mom now.
Just trust me and follow me.
If I... hadn't begged them to come here that day...
and...
if I hadn't met CEO Byun...
and...
if I hadn't lived apart from my parents...
and...
if that accident didn't occur that day...
How nice would that have been?
I know thinking about it over and over in my head again
isn't going to make it come true.
But I've thought about that day every night for ten years.
Whenever I thought about that...
I couldn't fall asleep.
It's not your fault.
Your parents won't think of it that way as well.
I'm sure they want you to stop thinking about what could've been.
If anything...
this whole time...
you did so well on your own...
and you worked hard.
That's what they'll think.
Thank you.
Will you help me?
I want to get up.
I thought...
there would never be a reason for me to come here again.
But I think I made the right decision to come here today.
I'm glad I came here with you.
From now on, whenever I hear the word amusement park...'
I'm going to think about you.
Me?
Yes.
From now on, when you hear the word 'amusement park...'
you're going to think about me for the rest of your life.
I'm here. Yeah, I'm inside the amusement park.
Where is everyone else?
Okay, I'll call you once I get there.
Hello?
Your license plate number is 666, right? Your lights are on.
Ah really? Yes, thank you. Bye.
Hey, Joon Mo. Someone called and said my lights were on.
Wait... but, Joon Mo...
I got rid of my phone number. How did he get my number?
His heart must be racing since a celebrity just kissed him out of the blue.
Since it's Cindy's birthday...
I thought it would be nice if we all got together and celebrate it with her.
You're happy about that?
I hope we win.
Ye Jin is going out on a blind date with that guy.
We're trying to hook Seung Chan up with Cindy.
Who knows? Cindy might have feelings for PD Baek Seung Chan.
At this rate, Cindy might ruin her career.
