Episode 6
- Bo Tong! - Manager Choi!
It sold out! Sold out!
- This is all thanks to you. - No, it's all thanks to you.
- It sold out! - I can't believe it!
I see it. The button.
Manager Choi's button...
is Kim Bo Tong?
Ma Te! It's a complete sell out!
Good work.
Thanks for all your hard work.
No, please don't mention it. It was all Bo Tong's hard work.
I have something to talk to Bo Tong about.
I need to take her with me for a moment.
Uh... okay, sure.
Why don't you just say it here?
Come with me.
I need somebody now
Do you know where to go
I need somebody now
Do you know where to go
Maybe I got on the wrong path
After I snapped out of it
I am wandering in a different day
I can't believe this. I can't believe my luck!
- Can I seriously take ten pictures? - It's your prize for selling everything.
Only ten pictures, got it?
Let me see the pictures.
- I'm not finished taking them yet. - Let me see it.
Delete this one, and delete this one.
Why? They turned out really nice.
How many times have I told you to take it from this angle?
- Retake them. - Okay, again.
When I saw you earlier... you and Manager Choi were a bit inappropriate.
Why were you acting so tacky like that in front of other employees?
Then I guess that means you're tacky too.
You often act inappropriately with other women.
Do you not want to take any more pictures?
Ma Te.
Let's take one with you licking your lips.
You're rebelling too much lately.
That looks a little cheap.
- Forget it, I'm not doing it. - Oh my goodness.
That's a good one. The annoyed face.
A frontal shot of you looking annoyed.
Done?
- Let's go get something to eat. - I have somewhere to go.
With who? Who are you going with?
What?
No, forget it.
Ma Te, can I take one more picture?
- Just one more picture? - Hey.
What expression could I use to best describe this momentous occasion?
'I dedicate all this glory to Electric Fairy'.
Something along that line?
This is all thanks to you pressing the button on that lady, Kim In Joong.
No, that's not it.
You've already had all the answers.
Excuse me?
Strangely enough...
people always come to ask me the questions they already know the answers to.
Even President Jackie thinks that she earned all her money because she bought
the real estate company that I recommended to her.
But that's not the case.
It's just that if I saw there was already something she was thinking of buying...
then all I did was agree with her on it.
Ma Te... it's the same with you.
Do you think that there's anyone out there
who can control other people's hearts better than you can?
Excuse me?
Ma Te.
Don't... come looking for me anymore.
Ma Te.
Do you see the button... in my heart?
The button within my heart...
I know you can see it, right?
Yes.
I see it.
What kind of a button do you see?
You are...
in love with me.
Just as I thought.
I see.
I can't see...
my button with my own eyes.
You can't...
see your own button?
It's because... a human being can't control their own heart.
Here, this is for you.
What's this?
Down the road...
when you encounter a very tough and dangerous situation on the path of your travels...
you're going to find yourself in a lot of pain from not being able to control your own heart.
When that time comes...
When that time comes, make sure...
to open this.
It will become an answer that will enable you to control your own heart.
Thank you.
Mom.
Do you remember when the next door neighbor's son bought his mom
a pair of red long johns with his first paycheck?
You were so envious of her then, weren't you?
You were so obvious.
Here.
Now your own son... bought you your own red long johns.
For the first time in my life, I worked to make my own money
and bought you a gift.
Can't you come out just for a moment... to take this?
I miss you so much, Mom.
This was the place you meant when you said you had to go somewhere?
Well... I had no idea that you'd be here.
I bought a pair of red long johns for Mrs. Kim.
I already bought her a pair, so just keep it for yourself.
You finally grew up.
Is that any way to speak to me?
Now that all the socks have been sold... I guess I won't be seeing you anymore, right?
- I'll just look at these pictures and... - Kim Bo Tong.
Let's... keep going and see how far we can take this.
Excuse me?
See... how far we can take this?
I mean... I'm always ready for it with all my body and soul, but this is still...
Let's work together and make a ton of money.
Money?
There's no reason why we can't do it.
You and I can make a ton of money together.
Enough to buy a company like MG Group ourselves.
Of course.
I bet if you worked as hard as you are good looking
then you'll really make a ton of money.
If we could convert your looks into money
then we'd have more than enough money to go up against any conglomerate in this country.
Let's give it our best.
Then, first...
we need a company name.
I think Kim In Joong really is quite impressive.
To create an opportunity that we couldn't dream of in just one attempt.
I'd like to get a little bit more information on her.
She's the best of the best in the insurance industry.
And as for her family life... she has a husband who works abroad...
and no kids. That's about it.
What?
That's too simple.
I don't think it'll be that simple.
You know what she hates the most? Gossiping behind people's back.
She may keep you at an arm's length.
Hello?
Yeah.
A congratulatory celebration?
Okay, we'll do it. Everyone worked hard on it together.
What do you want to eat?
Beef.
Is that okay?
Make sure you grill it right.
Wow, that looks so good.
- Oh my goodness. - Seriously, Ma Te.
All you got was this pork belly on a big day like this?
What are you talking about? It looks delicious.
You're being way too picky.
It's not fully cooked yet. I'll finish cooking it for you.
It's not fully cooked yet? I couldn't really see.
Then I'll check it for you.
You just don't have a feel for it because you don't know how to grill.
Hey.
- Grill that. - This? You mean this?
- Yeah. - Okay.
- Here, I'll grill it. - No, I'll grill it.
- I can grill it. - No, I'll grill it.
Manager Choi.
What's the next step we should take with the cleaning socks?
Why are you asking me that?
Well...
it's because you're the expert.
If I were you, I would reinvest.
Products like this get quickly copied, so you must hurry.
You have to sell as much as you can while it's going well.
Because everything has its time.
But we've already sold all the socks that are in the warehouse.
Then we'll just make more.
What?
After all the work we put into getting rid of that mountainous pile of socks
you want to make more?
Ma Te.
Seeing those white socks makes me want to vomit.
How are you going to make those socks? What about a factory? Or employees?
- That's just absurd. - He's right.
It's going to be too difficult to provide our own factory
so we'll have to do this through an OEM method.
Joining hands with an already existing sock factory to manufacture them together.
Then I guess the next thing we need to do is find a sock making factory?
Gather up your strength from all that meat, and let's go find ourselves a factory.
Kim Bo Tong.
- Ouch, that's hot. - Bo Tong!
- Are you okay? Are you okay, Bo Tong? - Ouch, that's hot.
Bo Tong! Let me see your hand, Bo Tong.
- Are you okay? - No, I'm okay.
Medicine... you need to get medication on it.
Hey, that's going to scar.
Medication isn't enough. Let's go to the hospital.
No, it's not that bad. Manager Choi's getting medication for it.
I told you that medication isn't enough for it.
I really... am fine.
- Ma Te. - It's going to scar.
You need to go to the hospital.
Oh my goodness.
Bo Tong! I got the medication.
Where did Bo Tong go?
I'm not sure, but something got lifted up in the air and just passed by me.
This is a bit of an awkward situation.
I told you that all I needed was to get some medicine, and a bandage on it.
Hey, don't you know...
don't you even know that's your left hand?
Don't you know what a left hand does?
It helps out the right hand.
Kim Bo Tong, most women...
wear a wedding ring on that left hand.
That's how significant that left hand is.
But...
When a left hand like that is scarred...
don't you think it'll be upsetting?
Are you really imagining this right now?
What are you doing?
No, nothing.
Let's go back to the car. And also...
Yes?
Set up a dinner appointment for me with Director Kim In Joong.
Okay.
I'm sure you're just embarrassed, Ma Te.
Because your feelings have been caught.
Seriously... did I just get proposed to?
Bo Tong.
Manager Choi.
Here's a sample. Please take good care of us.
I don't think you'll be able to make exact copies of these no matter where you go.
It may have been possible five years ago, but it's absolutely impossible now.
We won't make any profit at this price.
- Is there no way? - There's just not enough margin.
Even if you sell them in huge volumes
you can't expect a full usage of a facility for that low of a profit margin.
I'm sure we'll be able to find a factory. Don't worry so much about it.
All the things we have done so far were impossible in other people's eyes.
But we still did it.
Yes, you're right.
I've been giving this some thought.
I think we need to find a factory that actually cares for their socks.
Because if we're to be honest... socks aren't really all that desirable.
Cares?
Want to try going to a Sock Lover's Club Meeting?
Sock Lover's Club Meeting?
I looked it up and the love they have for their socks is nothing to joke about.
Let's go take a look.
That sounds like fun.
Hi, Ma Te.
No.
Yes.
Yes, I'll do it right now.
Okay.
What is it?
I complete forgot to do my homework that Ma Te assigned me.
[Kim In Joong]
Excuse me a moment.
Hi, Director Kim.
- It's your long lost distant cousin. - You didn't need to do this.
I told you that you didn't need to. I was more than happy to help you.
I didn't help you so that you could thank me for it.
- So don't feel that you need to do it. - Please, Director.
I really need to do this.
If I don't set this meeting up with you today, then I'm going to get fired on the spot.
Can't you take pity on me and save me just this once?
This puts me in a tough spot.
Please just meet with my boss, and let him thank you for helping us.
He's a really cool guy, and I promise that he won't become a nuisance to you.
I wouldn't want you to get fired.
I'm free for dinner the day after tomorrow.
Thank goodness.
Cleaning socks?
What channel did they find...
to get themselves listed as a subcontractor to sell on our site?
How that happened was, the head MD for the Household Department
brought in a new item that he called 'The cleaning sock'
and it seemed like a unique idea, so he was given a quick 30 minute time slot.
Any situation related to that firm is to be reported directly to me from now on.
Yes, I understand.
MG Group's second son, Director Na Jin Ho
was convicted of tax evasion and for accepting bribery
and was sentenced to serve a term in local penitentiary.
With the announcement that was made by MG Group's eldest son, Na Jin Seok
to resign and step down from his position as a successor of the company
the successor's seat for MG Group currently remains vacant.
It has been speculated that Na Hong Ran, the only other remaining child will
lead the company for the time being.
For the establishment of equality for the working class of this country
I will stand in the forefront, and lead the way to this new policy.
This has been Park Ki Seok from the Hancheon party.
Thank you.
Park Ki Seok is a force to be reckoned with in the political force who could
possibly even make it all the way to Presidency.
MG Group's Na Hong Ran announcing her intentions to marry Park Ki Seok is a matter
- that we need to keep our eyes on. - Yes, that's correct.
In all honesty, the fact that Na Hong Ran's position as the successor of MG Group
being unstable as an unmarried woman is something that she herself is well aware of.
Through her marriage to Park Ki Seok
I believe she is trying to unite the financial world to the political world.
That's not a bad scenario for her.
But there's just one thing. Park Ki Seok already has a son.
But I guess Na Hong Ran wouldn't have any other choice but to take him in as well?
It could be love.
Love can cross even the ocean.
MG's eldest son, Na Jin Suk, was killed in a car accident.
The autopsy report shows that traces of drugs were found in his system.
We will now speak to our reporter who's on the scene at the funeral.
Looking in from the outside, it's a very natural progression of events.
But I'm sure a bloody battle must've ensued underneath it all.
I wonder just how it was that you managed to push out your own brothers...
to take over that position for yourself...
Vice Chairman Na Hong Ran?
Aren't these new animal friends of yours cute?
I really am fine without all this.
- You're just making work for yourself. - What are you talking about?
We're about to embark on a new work journey, and you can't live in a sterile man's room.
I want to make your room pretty for you.
Thank you.
I'll finish pasting glue on this, Manager Choi.
- It's David. - Huh?
My name is David.
I'd prefer if you called me David, instead of Manager Choi.
David?
Mr. David?
Sir David?
I feel weird.
David...
David Sweetie?
That's too weird.
I like calling you Manager Choi.
In that case... Manager Sweetie?
What do you think of that one?
Manager Sweetie.
Ma Te, when did you get here?
I guess you couldn't even hear me come in because you were having too much fun.
Oh my goodness... what kind of a zoo is this?
I guess I'm going to need an admission ticket just to come in here.
There's no sense of innocence about you whatsoever.
Why are you here?
Do you have something you need me to do for you?
Did you set up the appointment?
I already sent you a text about that.
Did you come all the way here just to ask me that?
- You didn't send any texts. - Yes, I did.
Okay, I didn't.
Sorry, I was wrong.
What a tacky decor.
Ugh.
- I think it's pretty. - Right?
What a weirdo.
By the way, the sock lover's club is having a meeting tonight.
- Want to go? - Deal!
Deal.
Hello.
My name is Kim In Joong. It's nice to meet you.
I just ran out of business cards. I'll give it to you next time.
Sure.
I've thought long and hard about how I can appropriately thank you.
Thank you for all your help.
No, don't mention it.
You must be very good friends with the Electric Fairy.
Seeing how she placed that call to me herself to tell me about the dream...
For Electric Fairy to go so far out of her way to help you like that means
you must be very important to her.
If that's the case, then you're important to me too.
So of course, I should help you however I can.
Hello Chef.
I've been so busy that I haven't even been able to come greet you properly.
Especially knowing how often you come here.
Your fine cuisine is the best kind of greeting.
But... is something wrong?
You're not looking so good.
It must be because I've been so worried about my mother lately.
Why? What's wrong with your mother?
She's a bit unwell these days.
Exams from the hospital show that she needs to get surgery as soon as possible.
But her doctor already has a packed schedule.
We were told that she needs to wait at least half a year for it, but with her age...
I'm not sure if she'll be able to endure that long.
- Who's her doctor? - Doctor Kim Byung Sik at Hankkuk Hospital.
I've looked into some other hospitals, but well...
All of the doctors who are qualified are all booked for months.
I see.
What are you going to do?
I'm not sure either.
I'm sorry for interrupting your dinner with your guest.
Want me to bring you something else?
I didn't even get to thank you for arranging to have the monthly ladies' meeting here.
No, it's okay.
What I've got here is plenty.
I don't think I've seen you there in a couple of months?
The elderly ladies in that club terrify me.
They give me indigestion.
I apologize for that.
No, it's okay.
I think I need to make a quick phone call.
Please don't worry about me, and take your time.
I'm sorry, and please excuse me.
Honey?
You haven't called me in forever.
I heard that you haven't even been out golfing lately either?
Are you that busy?
I see.
I was just calling to ask you something.
Didn't you tell me that your brother-in-law was Chief of Directors at Hankkuk Hospital?
Right?
I thought I remembered hearing that somewhere.
Honey... can I ask you for a favor?
Hello!
- Hello! - Oh my goodness!
Your socks really are something else.
This is the least I can do to show them my respect.
Aren't they so cute?
- Yes, they're very pretty, just like you. - Huh?
Pretty.
I meant that your socks are pretty. You really put a lot of work into them.
This is awesome.
What is this?
Are these really Andersen's socks?
No way!
I guess they really are.
Okay, everyone.
In the name of progression of evolution from four to two limbed animals... let's all cheers.
- Cheers. - Cheers!
Okay, you all know why we're here. Everyone, get ready.
- Four limbs walking revolution. - Four limbs walking revolution.
Four limbs walking revolution.
Bo Tong.
Four limbs walking revolution.
She's so cute.
- Your socks are too cute. - You have to start off with your right hand.
You should've done it with us!
A true evolution of an athlete's sock!
Your fashion sense is commendable.
I just drew some pictures on one of my mom's old pair of socks.
You must really love your socks.
It's my destiny.
How should I put this?
A fate that I must carry with me throughout my life?
I operate a very small sock factory.
To the glory of your toe socks. Cheers.
You asked me for a more detailed report on the cleaning sock company?
I don't know if it's because they've gained more confidence after the big sale they made
but their MD in charge requested a segment during one of our prime timeslots.
- I will definitely deny his... - Give him... the timeslot.
Yes.
Excuse me?
Yes, hello. This is Dok Go Ma Te.
Can you spare me ten minutes of your time?
I have something I must get to you.
I'm sorry, but my schedule is swamped today.
I can come meet you anywhere you'd like.
I just need ten minutes of your time.
Then...
Would you like to come meet me at Hankkuk Hospital around three o'clock?
Yes, I'll see you there.
His consultation is taking longer than I thought.
You're here because of that Chef's mother's surgery, aren't you?
Yes, she was able to get the surgery.
So I just wanted to come thank him in person.
But... what is it that you said you had for me?
I got you a business card holder.
I noticed the other day that your business card holder was looking a bit worn.
It's not anything expensive, so I hope you don't feel burdened by it.
Oh my.
You have quite the eye.
Yes, that business card holder is old, and it was starting to get worn out.
But I'm not sure if it's okay for me to be accepting this.
It wasn't easy trying to find something that would suit you appropriately.
A pretty woman needs a pretty business card case to match.
Thank you.
Doctor.
Oh my. I completely forgot that you were waiting.
My consultation took longer than I thought it would.
I'm so sorry to tell you this, but I have to rush off somewhere right now.
No, it's okay.
I was reminded of you the other day, and so I brought you a fountain pen.
Now you're making me feel even worse.
I had to turn you away so many times even when you came to ask me to take on the surgery.
No, not at all.
I'm the one who's grateful for taking the time out of your busy schedule to do the surgery.
This fountain pen was crafted by an excellent blind craftsman in Japan.
I received it as a gift, but I don't know the proper way to use it.
But I heard that you collect these.
You really are such a thoughtful person.
Thank you.
I'll set up a time to treat you out to dinner.
Yes, I'll gladly accept your dinner invitation.
Okay, I'm sorry, but I have to run.
- I'll see you again. Thanks for the gift. - Sure.
Goodbye.
Oh my, I'm sorry. I forgot to introduce you.
- Thank you for the gift. - No, please don't mention it.
But... why did you wait until now to give him that fountain pen as a gift?
What I mean is...
wouldn't it have been easier to get him to do the surgery if you had given it to him
during one of your visits to make that request of him?
If you give prior to the fact, then it's a bribe.
But if you give after the fact, then it's a gift.
It's a world of difference.
I see.
The first principle of networking with people.
Knowing the difference between a bribe and a gift.
No, you're wrong.
First is interest.
A deep interest in the other person.
A deep enough interest to know that he likes to collect fountain pens.
If you look at it that way, you're pretty skilled in it yourself.
Not even my own employees noticed that my card holder was worn out.
Allow me to buy you a cup of coffee to repay you for this valuable lesson.
I have a ton of other prior engagements for the day.
I'm sorry.
Goodbye.
You know what she hates the most? Gossiping behind people's backs.
She may keep you at an arm's length.
She hates gossiping.
Gossiping.
Ma Te.
Just think about it again.
Flower Boy street cart is the perfect thing for you to invest in.
- How many times do I need to tell you? - Have many times have I told you to shut it?
You didn't go into work today, Manager Choi?
I'm working out on the field.
Being at your own home is what you call working in the field?
- How about this? - Okay.
Have you gathered any information on sock factories?
It's like trying to find a needle in the haystack.
Manager Choi and I are looking around everywhere.
But no one is showing any interest.
However...
You must remember who you're talking to.
Manager Choi and I found a place, didn't we?
It's a company called, 'Four Limbs Walking'.
The probability at this place is pretty high.
Even Manager Choi thinks that this is the only place that could help us out with our plans.
Do you know how to do this?
First is interest.
A deep interest in the other person.
See if you can find a personal homepage on that factory's president.
Huh?
How do we find that?
Should we see if we can find his blog first?
People usually link up their SNS to their blog sites these days.
Then let's just check that sock website.
Let's see here.
There it is!
Let's take a look.
Oh my goodness. They're all socks!
Wow... he really must love his socks.
It's blood sausage soup.
Seeing that picture is making me want some blood sausage soup.
Blood sausage soup?
I'm so sick of it because my mom makes it all the time.
You're sick of her delicious blood sausage soup?
Your mom's blood sausage soup was the best I ever had.
What are you talking about?
When have you ever tried her mom's blood sausage soup?
Well... I had it at Bo Tong's house, of course.
Her house?
You tried it that day when you came to pick me up as a part of the move-in service, right?
You really are pulling out all the stops.
A pickup service? What is this, a kiddie movie theater shuttle?
If you want me to interpret that term, pick-up service...
It pretty much means the same things as, consideration.
Manager Choi and I are going to the Four Limbs Factory tomorrow morning.
Do you introduce just anyone to your family?
Manager Choi...
Forget it.
Go to your mom's house tomorrow, and bring me back some blood sausage soup.
Why, all of a sudden?
Are you getting annoyed right now?
Of course not.
I just wanted to know your reasoning for it.
I want to try it, and see just how good that soup really is.
You let him have it, but not me?
Mom.
Why do we have to do this at one in the morning?
She says Manager Choi wants some.
Hey.
For some reason, Manager Choi feels more like a son-in-law to me, and I really like him.
Let's stop that crazy talk, Mother.
- Can't we just do this tomorrow? - She says he wants to have it tomorrow!
I have to start simmering the broth now for it to develop that really deep taste.
Can I go to sleep once I'm done with this?
What do you mean, go to sleep?
You have to go and get me some really fresh intestines for the soup.
Kim Bo Tong!
We have been rejected by 38 different sock factories until this morning.
We have to get in with this factory.
Ah... I'm getting a feeling about this place.
This was the place right from the beginning.
Four Limbs factory.
Barefoot dreams, barefoot youth, barefoot friends, and barefoot strength.
Things like that... are what we hate hearing the most.
Right?
So that's why we brought you some samples.
Here, take a look.
I have never seen this style before. What a unique way to use the material.
It may not be the easiest to match the margin since the yarn used in this is so expensive.
But it is our company's mission to provide our customers with the highest quality socks
rather than worrying about making the biggest profit margin that we can.
Then first...
should we start off by giving this lovely sock a name?
White as pure snow, and softer than the fluffiest cloud.
In that case...
Socks that comfort the soul like the gentlest fluttering of an angel's wings.
What do you think?
Um... these are cleaning socks.
Do what with those divine socks?
Clean? Did you say, clean?
You guys are not even worthy to be in this office.
Get out of here immediately!
- Wait, Sir! - Just give us a chance to explain!
Bo Tong, are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere?
No, I'm okay.
- What about you? Are you okay? - I'm fine.
Too bad.
It's a shame that no one else is here to witness this with me.
Ugh, my aching head... My headache from Kim Bo Tong.
Ah... it seems as though my employees didn't do a very good job of explaining themselves.
I vow that these socks weren't made to be disrespected by being used as a cleaning tool.
- Are you joking with me right now? - No, I'm not.
The fact that even after having studied design in Paris
you still chose to design socks rather than clothes...
That fact alone speaks volumes in the love you have for your socks.
Did you do a background check on me?
No.
It's just been found.
The man who can share our passion with us.
Here, take a look at how passionate my employee is.
Socks are a precious commodity to our company.
Enough so that our employee would go around using a Christmas stocking as her purse.
You didn't buy it... but you made that yourself?
Yes.
Someone threw some scrap fabric away, so I dug them out and...
Rebirth.
We're attempting to give new life to these socks which are dwindling in our society.
The fashion trend these days abstains from wearing socks even on colder days like this.
Socks are steadily losing their stance in today's society.
Cleaning socks are not a symbol of decline for socks
but it's a symbol of reincarnation for socks that are dying off.
Oh my brother!
Oh my socks. Oh my God!
Here, try it.
You didn't have to do that.
- Is that my mom's soup? - So?
Your mom's?
President Dok Go. You have impressed me in so many ways today.
This taste is just unbelievable.
I have tried my share of many different blood sausage soup.
Where... did this blood sausage soup come from?
I thought you wanted the soup for yourself.
You think I'm petty enough to want to try it just because someone else has?
Wouldn't it have been nicer if you had come sooner with the soup to break the ice?
Giving it prior to the fact, makes it a bribe.
But no matter how things turn out, giving it after the fact, makes it a gift.
Can you even understand that?
If I had given him that blood sausage soup from the get go...
it would've been a bribery to get him to promise to work with us on those socks.
But after the business has already gone well
you gift them something that they truly love...
just like that blood sausage soup.
This is what you call...
true networking skills.
Understand?
Ma Te's just getting smarter and smarter by the day.
I sent you some pictures with Duk Sang. And what is with your wallpaper?
Do you really think that you should be playing with those horses and rabbits at your age?
Stick my pictures up on the wall. I sent them to keep you motivated.
Why are you trying to manage someone else's personal preference?
What kind of a picture do you think he sent?
No matter what, he really is...
I think this picture is a bit oversized.
But it's still so pretty.
Seeing him in a larger size like this, he looks even prettier.
How can he look this good?
Hello?
Yes.
Yes, it is. Who's calling?
We're calling from MG Home shopping.
We'd like to set up a meeting with you in regards to your cleaning socks.
You want to have a meeting to discuss our cleaning sock product line?
When would you like for me to come in?
Will two o'clock tomorrow afternoon work for you?
Yes, thank you.
Yes.
- Oh my goodness. - You know how to play the guitar too?
- I just play it for fun. - That's so cool.
- You think it's cool? - Yes.
You think it's cool?
What song were you just playing?
- It's a song I wrote. - Awesome.
You write music too?
I want to hear it.
But I haven't written the lyrics yet, so it's not complete.
Then play it for me once you do complete it.
I'll give you my honest opinion.
I'm playing in a small concert with a few other guys at the end of the year.
- Want to come? - Awesome.
Deal!
I think I'm envious of everything that you do.
I'm envious of you camping out here underneath the night sky...
You even know how to play the guitar.
What to do... I wish I could do everything that you like for you.
Camping is too cold for you...
As for the night sky... want to sleep with your windows open?
No, then you would catch a cold.
I'll just come sit with you and watch you play your guitar.
I can look up at the stars, and I can look at him too.
Him?
No, not him.
Want me to teach you how to play the guitar?
Me?
That would be nice.
- What do I do? - I'll teach you the most basic C cord.
You use this hand to press down this string.
- Here? - Yes, that's right.
And you press down here with your second finger.
And you press down here with your third finger.
Here?
Try making the sound.
- That was very good. - Did I get it?
I got it!
C!
So that's the C cord.
Wow, that sounds like music.
- Next... next is the F cord! - F cord!
It's so strange
Why is my heart racing so much?
Maybe I got on the wrong path
After I snapped out of it
I am wandering in a different day
Like a child who's just seen the world
Everything looks new
I want to touch and feel everything
Why are you having the meeting here?
If it's about broadcasting your product, shouldn't you be meeting at the office?
The person who wants to meet apparently has several meetings in the area.
What does the location matter?
The point is whether or not they'll accept...
You two seem much more shocked than I thought you would be.
I asked you to meet me here because I thought a casual setting would be better.
Does this make you uncomfortable?
- How about you? - Of course not.
I like the atmosphere in here.
How's the coffee here?
I'll leave you two to talk.
I'll go bring you your coffee.
Shall we sit?
The average sales made by an item during our prime timeslots is 4 million won.
Yes, I'm aware.
I'll give you the timeslot you want.
I doubt you're just going to give that to me out of the goodness of your heart?
Of course not.
This is not charity work.
I have one condition.
The sales margin of 4 million won... make sure that you meet that goal.
And if... if I can't?
The profit is usually split 50-50 or 40-60 between the network and the seller.
In an effort to help a new starting business...
how about 60-40? With you being the 60?
I have no interest in your share.
My share is 40. Make sure that you compensate us our share.
And if you fail, admit your failure, and make a clean exit from MG Group.
Will you accept... my conditions?
Okay.
I accept your conditions, now I will tell you mine.
First.
I hope that there will be no hindrance of any kind from you.
Since I doubt that the name, Na Hong Ran, is all that palpable to you...
I'll bet MG Group's reputation on it.
Second.
Give us the best producers you have.
Gladly.
Then I'll assume we understand each other and start my preparations.
I'm looking forward to it.
Did you even think about it all the way through?
You don't think you've gone too far?
I'm not talking about losing the money that you've just earned.
It's that you could be falling into Na Hong Ran's trap.
The factory is already in motion.
Manager Choi and Bo Tong have worked hard to find the place.
She wasn't going to give me the timeslot anyway unless I accepted this deal.
Although I can just reimburse the factory for the cost of manufacturing and be done with it
but those people who have worked so hard facing such a disappointment...
how can I compensate them for that?
I need to see what kind of solution I can find out there.
Just like I did the first time around.
Let me make you a nice cup of Yerba Mate tea.
Drink it and keep your energy focused.
They dare take me on?
That company has nothing to offer up as collateral even if they fail.
Why don't you offer up this cafe as collateral?
If you lose this game, you surrender without another word.
I'll have the contract drawn up and sent over to you.
Who know what the biggest danger is in a game of badook?
It's Ja-choong-soo. (a strategic move within the game.)
A primetime timeslot...
You have to see the game through to the end, Vice Chairman Hong.
Let's see which one of us made the ja-choong-soo move.
- Work faster. - Yes.
Then first, we need to come up with a company name.
Ah, you're right.
A company name. What shall we name it?
Bo Tong Company. (Average company)
What?
- The name of my mom's rib restaurant? - Bo Tong Company.
It's perfect.
My mom told me... that being normal is the toughest thing to be.
That's why she named me and the restaurant, 'Bo Tong'.
But look at the state I'm in, and the restaurant is flailing in business.
- Why don't you choose something else? - No, I don't want to.
I don't want to think about it anymore.
Bo Tong Company.
Nothing else.
The name of your company... is a really nice name.
- Hello. - Hello.
We're here to bring you a very special show today.
Cleaning socks.
The very same item that became so popular that it sold out during the broadcast.
We have prepared more to bring to you today.
Another sure reason why you should pick these up today is
you're probably wondering about the price of these items during our broadcast.
You have a total of six months to pay a total of 39,990 won.
Isn't that a really nice deal?
Ma Te.
We're not even getting a quarter of the number of orders that came in the last time.
It was very difficult for us to get new inventory of this item.
This price is only guaranteed if you order through our broadcast today.
The most important thing to remember is that we are the only ones making you this offer.
You can't see this deal anywhere else. Why don't you join us today?
They're going to lose it.
Tell them to demonstrate wiping the dust off again.
Yes.
I've always hated cleaning window sills the most because they're so tough to get to.
Yes, you're right. Window sills.
It's not like a vacuum would fit in there, nor could you ever get it really clean.
But I think you can put that worry behind you from now on.
I don't think any more words are necessary. Why doesn't the audience see for themselves?
Here, let me show you how well it cleans. All these tough to reach areas?
The number of orders are slowly rising.
Ma Te.
We won't even be able to reach 100,000 at this rate.
My share is 40 percent.
Make sure that you compensate me for my 40 percent.
And if you fail, admit your failure and make a clean exit from MG.
Will you accept... my offer?

Ma Te... how could...
- What? - I'll take responsibility for it.
Help me.
Shall we... go somewhere a little bit more comfortable?
- What if I told you I thought differently? - Differently?
What are we going to do now? How about we recruit Manager Choi?
- You sick or something? - I'm not sure.
- Hello? - Ma Te.
- If this isn't an urgent matter... - I'll tell you the third principle.
- Ma'am! - Are you dating?
I only work with people of the highest integrity.
You're so good at knitting.
One might think that you've raised several kids by looking at you.
- What did you say? - Let's start taking care of this.
There's a favor that I need you to do for me.
A favor that you must do.
