Episode 13
Are you crazy?
You could've gotten into an accident!
Do you hate it that much?
Do you hate being with me that much?
Is that why you're applying to another company before your internship is even over?
That's right.
Because making a living is more important to me just as it always has been.
And I'm going to end up quitting the company anyway
so isn't it a given that I should take this opportunity when I'm presented with it?
And the time for you to show any interest in me is already over.
It's absurd for you to show any interest in me now.
Why? Do you find me pitiful?
Do you feel bad for me?
- Is that why? - It's not like that.
Then why are you meddling with everything that goes on in my life?
I...
have 'plastic flower'.
- What? - Plastic flower. Love sickness!
What?
I like you.
I really like you!
So don't go.
I like you.
I said, I like you, Ae Ra!
I feel like my heart is going to burst open, and it's driving me crazy.
Can't you tell?
So?
As long as you liked me
and as long as your heart felt like it was going to burst...
you must've thought that I would feel the same way as you?
- What? - Don't you remember what I told you?
I told you that I liked me for who I am right now.
That I feel like I'm finally living.
The President of Tongil Shilla Hotel said he recognized my talent with my buffet deal.
I...
finally realize how fulfilling it is to do and accomplish something on my own.
To stay up and work through the night to create something of my own...
I finally realize how happy that can make me.
I was so excited that I couldn't even fall asleep.
Don't you get that?
- Ae Ra. - I want to take this interview.
You know that it's a good opportunity.
- I'll take you there. - I'll go on my own.
I already made you late.
What is your reason for leaving?
What is your reason for leaving your current company, Ms. Na Ae Ra?
You're not even prepared to answer those questions?
Huh?
- I was just going to be honest... - Honest?
That you're quitting because you don't want to see your ex-husband anymore?
They're more interested in learning about
the person's character for these types of interviews.
Because we all already know that the people that we're interviewing are professionals.
Why it is that you're leaving your current job, what difficulties did you encounter...
and what troubles did you experience. Questions like that.
If they ask you about any difficulties, tell them that you didn't experience any.
Just show them how passionate you are about your job.
It shouldn't be hard to do that since you'd be telling the truth.
Since you worked through the night even on your own birthday.
Even though I forced you to do it.
The CEO of the company isn't even able to go home yet because of an intern!
- Eat it or not... I don't care. - Gee... how thoughtful you are.
Did he know that it's my birthday when he bought all this?
- Ms. Na Ae Ra. - Yes?
What do you think is your strongest positive trait?
To work hard at everything that I do.
No, that's not the right answer. You have to be more detailed.
You can give them your most recent project as an example.
Persistence, passion, ambitious drive...
and even your ability to improvise.
Because you were amazing.
You seem to appreciate hearing those words.
Yeah, I do appreciate it.
Since you're feeling so grateful... I should make my request of you now.
Have dinner with me after your interview is over.
I can't do that.
What happened? Are you okay?
What are you doing? I just asked you if you were okay.
- Pain... I feel a sharp pain! - What is it? Are you hurting somewhere?
My... lovesickness.
Stop playing around!
I'm not playing. It really does hurt.
Recognize that I'm not well right now, and be more considerate of my condition.
So... have dinner with me.
Dinner.
My lovesickness!
Iron.
This isn't any fun.
I know... that the little lady is going through a difficult time lately...
but Chairman Gook is also going through a difficult time because of the little lady.
He's not able to sleep at all...
and if he finds out about CEO Cha's other woman on top of all that
I can't say what it's going to do to his health.
Why are you stalling like this?
What is it?
So father doesn't know about this yet?
You know why I'm showing you those pictures, don't you?
CEO Cha's ex-wife aside...
I didn't know that you'd be like this too.
I don't know what magical power of allure that this woman may have
to have such power over you two men.
- But those pictures... - Don't tell...
my father about these pictures.
I'll take care of the rest.
- It's time for your prosthetic exam. - I'm not going.
How many times do I have to tell you?
Where did you work?
I've worked at The Venetian in Las Vegas for the past four years.
I worked at The Hilton in the States.
I was the head of their marketing department for five years.
I took care of a countless number of famous clients from
President Obama to many others.
What about you?
- Excuse me? - Tell us about your experience.
I'm an intern of DonTalk's Mobile Shopping Team.
Intern?
What is this? I thought this position was for experienced people only?
Oh my God.
Na Ae Ra.
Don't cower in front of them.
You were recruited here.
I like you.
I really like you!
How is it... that you're even interviewing for this job?
Excuse me?
I seriously can't seem to understand it.
That a lowly intern like you is even interviewing for this job.
What's that nasty tongue twister's deal?
I doubt that it was your skills that got you here.
Do you have some other special 'in' that you used to get in here?
- With your pretty face and all. - Hey!
I need to teach her a lesson.
Oh my God!
Jolie Choi, did you say? Who do you think you are, Jolie Choi?
Are you trying to be Angelina Jolie's knockoff or something?
Like I always say, even insults have their limits.
I'm super sensitive both in mind and spirit today.
So don't provoke me. Got it?
Or I might make you regret it.
What an ignorant idiot.
Oh my God. You startled me.
Are you Jolie Choi?
Sorry.
- Are you Jolie Choi? - Yes, that's me.
The upper management would like to see you quietly without others knowing.
Me?
The truth is, this interview is just a formality.
But the upper management, they've already...
decided that they want to go with you.
I knew it.
- Should I go up right now? - Yes.
- Up to the rooftop. - Rooftop? Okay.
I don't know if I should be telling you this.
This is just a little insiders tip.
The upper management...
they're very interested in you.
But whether you'll go up in the elevator, or take the stairs all the way up there...
I think that's going to be their final deciding factor for them.
I really think that you should take the stairs to show them how tenacious you can really be.
If they're up on the rooftop...
then that would be 20 flights of stairs.
- And we're on... - Second floor.
- Okay, I got it. - Yeah!
Fighting, Jolie!
- Fighting! - You got it!
What do you think is your strongest positive trait?
I...
I believe that a company and its employees are clandestine to be together.
That's why each and every employee of any given company are a precious commodity
and all the projects that they work on are just as precious as they are.
Na Ae Ra.
Where are you right now?
Is this your idea of having dinner together?
I was just craving something sweet.
Maybe it's because I'm getting sweeter by the day.
Want to try mine?
It's sweet and delicious.
You've got some on your lip.
What?
Here.
Where?
Right there.
[The interview results will be revealed in two weeks' time.]
Did your interview go well?
Why do you have so many messages?
This and that.
A message telling me that I'll get my interview results in a couple of weeks.
I see.
Ae Ra.
Do you hate... working for my company that much?
No, I like it. I like my co-workers and my job.
But...
the situation is a bit complicated.
- That's all I needed to know. - What do you mean?
Just something.
Let's go get some dinner.
What are you doing?
- Just come on, and stop being so nervous. - What is this place?
Just trust me, and come on. This is a really nice place.
- Where are you? I can't see anything. - I'm trying to cut my donkatsu right now.
But why isn't it cutting?
That flew all the way over here?
Where did it go? Stay still and stop moving so much.
- Where is it? Is it over here? - Where do you think you're looking?
- Is it over here? - Have you lost your mind?
- No, I haven't lost my mind. Just hold still! - Hey, Cha Jung Woo!
Are you okay?
Back here... I think your tie is undone.
- I'll tie it back for you. - Forget it!
- Just hold still! - I'll do it myself!
Okay, fine.
Stop laughing.
- But it's funny. - I said, stop laughing!
Ae Ra... are you mad?
No.
That's a relief to hear.
Um...
I must not have been able to see you earlier with it being so dark.
I'm sorry.
It's okay. It was just a mistake.
- Isn't that supposed to be the fun of it all? - I wasn't talking about just now.
I meant, earlier.
What?
From the very moment I held you back on your way to your interview until now.
The truth is...
the path in front of me seemed so dark that I couldn't see or even hear anything.
But one by one, I'm starting to see things clearly now.
I can see things even more clearly now that my eyes are blinded by the darkness.
Jung Woo.
The injustice you must've felt...
and how you must've resented me...
I can see them all so clearly now.
I really am so pathetic.
Ae Ra.
Can't you...
just stay and see how different I can be towards you from now on?
You can't use any source of light in here.
Okay.
Mister!
Yes, okay.
I'm sorry.
We're here.
Okay.
But... is this the only place you've got to stay?
I know that he's your friend, but he's still a guy!
It's just Min Young and I, so it's okay.
No, this won't do. Let's just go to my house.
I told you that I can take care of it.
Then you have to be very careful.
- Careful of what? - Of everything!
- Be careful of everyone around you. - You're the most dangerous of them all.
Go on home.
Go on.
I'm...
really leaving now.
You're going to make yourself fall down. Walk straight.
Goodnight, Ae Ra.
Where have you been all day? I haven't been able to reach you all day.
My feelings were starting to get hurt.
- That's... - You don't need to explain.
No, that's not right.
Maybe you should try to come up with some excuses.
Most other couples usually fight and bicker in situations like this, don't they?
That's something... that only real couples would do.
Seung Hyun.
- I do appreciate your feelings, but... - Ugh, I'm so tired.
I'm tired from having waited around all day.
I'm just going to get going now.
Seung Hyun.
I need to start taking care of my figure again.
Where have you been all afternoon? I couldn't even get a hold of you.
I went to take care of something very urgent and important.
What was that?
We almost lost something very crucial to our company.
I stopped that from happening.
But I can't let down my guard.
I'm going on full alert mode starting today
so don't worry about it if you suddenly can't get a hold of me.
Okay.
What?
I was just thinking... that your illness seem to be all better now.
Don't be such a scoundrel, and stop thinking those thoughts.
Yeah.
What did you call me out for this late at night?
And why are you drinking?
You came.
- Stop drinking. - Let go of me.
I told you to stop ordering me around as if you're still my teacher.
Snap out of it.
What was that? Were you just saying that to yourself?
You're the one who needs to snap out of it.
What are you doing with those two women?
Is that what you're curious about?
Okay.
I'll answer your question.
- I'm... - Think carefully before you speak.
Because I feel like I'm on the edge of losing my mind lately.
I'm...
going to start over with Na Ae Ra.
Then...
what about my sister?
You're just going to cast her aside?
Now that you've gotten enough use out of her, you'll just apologize and abandon her?
Shut your mouth.
No comment, is that it?
It's not like I'm completely oblivious as to why you're behaving this way.
But I'm not the type of person to joke around about my feelings.
So don't be so careless with your words.
There's a limit as to how far you can go even if you are younger than me.
- That's enough drinking! - Mind your own business.
I...
want to protect and keep both you and Ae Ra.
And I'm going to do everything I can to make sure that happens.
What if...
you had to choose only one?
I hope something like that won't happen.
Call him a cab.
I'm leaving.
There's no need for you to take care of me.
You just worry about yourself.
Can't you...
just stay and see how different I can be towards you from now on?
I like you.
I said, I really like you!
'D&T Soft Ventures loses its investors'?
D&T Soft Ventures' new gaming program
is encountering difficulties with finding investors to invest.
- What are you reading? - Online news.
'Their future looks bleak'?
Who do they think they are, the weather station?
How dare they make unfounded predictions like this?
Tell them that we're going to sue them all for false reporting and liability!
You never used to care about the news before, but why are you so sensitive about it lately?
It's because I'm sick lately.
Okay, fine. I got it.
You and your excuses of being sick.
We are here to review some of the service upgrade ideas that we discussed at our workshop.
Let's all take a look.
Sorry that I'm late.
Please continue, Team Leader Wang.
We're planning on making this an option for the customers to utilize it like actual cash.
That sounds like a great idea.
You suggested that we host a designer label authentication
for our latest designer label event for our customers?
Ms. Na Ae Ra?
Ah... yes.
When we told our customers that we were going to sell
designer labels at a much more affordable price...
We had a lot of online inquiries asking if what we're selling is authentic.
So we're going to give them some tips on how to tell the real products from the fake ones.
So I was thinking that we could host an event to reassure our customers that
our products are the genuine authentic designer items.
You're looking very pretty today.
That sounds pretty good...
but how big of a scale are you thinking?
It's not like we can call each and every one of our customers individually.
As for that...
How about advertising the event on the front page of our company's main website?
Since our main goal is to spread the word rather than having it turn into some giant event.
Okay, then go on with the plans.
Don't forget that even though good PR is good
sustaining our already established customers is just as important, if not more so.
Yes, sir.
[You're looking very pretty today.]
What in the heck am I doing right now?
You've already compiled a list of items to have authenticated?
Our idea just got confirmed only moments ago.
I had the list compiled when the idea of the event was first suggested.
I see.
I know that it's the first meeting... but don't let that intimidate you, okay?
Excuse me?
- Yes, okay. - All those people are total experts.
So if they see you hesitating or weakening at all
that'll be the end of our online shopping mall.
Our company is going through enough struggles as is right now
so don't you think that we should work even harder during times like these?
Yes, Ma'am.
If you see me getting ahead of myself, please help me get focused again.
You need to learn to... leap higher.
Even if you are feeling nervous and afraid
the moment you let others see that, you're showing your cards off to everyone.
If a woman is to survive on her own...
she must teach herself how to become stronger.
Let's turn this project into another brilliant success
and have a celebratory party after our success.
Hello, CEO Cha.
What do you think about this person?
I'm so sorry.
I got a sudden cramp in my hand.
The mood at the office is pretty tense.
I know he's the CEO, but what can he do about it if he loses all his investors?
The news is already out, so I'm sure the outcome won't be good.
Me?
I'd like to stay with this company if I could. Where else would I go?
Okay, I'll call you if anything happens.
Oh my goodness!
Manager Kang.
Is the company really struggling right now?
To be perfectly honest about it, the company's in real danger right now.
Our CEO is already infamous for constantly butting heads with his investors as is.
I doubt they're going to go easy on him. They'll probably try to teach him a lesson.
But there's nothing for you to worry about.
We had a similar instance like this happen before in the past
but CEO Cha and Director Gook figured out a way to get us out of the mess.
So we should just trust those two to get us out of this danger too.
You came.
I thought that you were going to tell me that you're in bed already with it being so late.
You woke me out of my sleep.
What are you doing here so late at night?
Just because.
What happened?
Is something wrong?
Ae Ra.
Can I hold you in my arms just this once?
Excuse me?
Seung Hyun.
Please!
Please hold still just for a moment.
Please.
It's...
possible that you may...
start feeling very disappointed in me from now on.
You're acting very strange tonight.
Now there's no doubt as to how much I like and care for you.
And there's no way...
that I'm going to back off.
What I just confessed to you tonight...
It doesn't matter if I'm the only one who feels this way right now.
There's no way that I'm going to give up on you.
I'm sorry for having woken you up from your sleep.
Go back to bed.
What's this?
It's a list of investors whom we have the best chance of getting some money from.
But we won't be able to use any of their money freely.
You said you didn't want to use this list of investors either.
But we don't have the luxury to be choosy about that at this moment.
This money is going to end up being the anchor that drags this company down.
I will not allow it.
Then... how about making an announcement of our wedding plans?
It's the surest and safest way to get the money we need in the situation that we're in.
Don't you agree?
You're aware of it yourself, aren't you?
One mention of our impending marriage would guarantee us new investors.
Not to mention that it would stop our current investors from dropping out.
- I'll pretend that you didn't just say that. - Why is that?
Because we'll be deceiving our investors with a lie.
There has to be another way.
I'll find a way to get us out of this mess, so just give me a little bit more time.
If you'll just change your mind
there's a very easy and simple way to get us out of this danger.
I don't want to use you for something like this.
Are you sure that this isn't about Na Ae Ra?
Are you thinking of reconciling with her?
Is that why you don't want any announcements of our wedding to be made?
I don't make my business decisions based on my personal emotions or feelings.
However...
I feel that this must be said.
I can't accept your feelings for me.
I'm sorry.
- So please don't... - I have something I must say of my own.
The danger that the company is facing right now...
It'll be impossible to get us out of it in the way that you're thinking right now.
I've already told you the only way I know of how we can pull us out of this danger.
The decision...
is up to you.
CEO Cha, you have a phone call from the CEO of Tongil Shilla Hotel.
I was a bit surprised when I received the call from your secretary.
I was under the impression that you don't normally do things like this?
You're correct. No, I don't do this.
You know how unpredictable our world can be.
But... I somehow found myself in the situation that I'm in right now.
Let's just say that you have earned some trust and respect after our most recent project.
I'll invest as much as you need me to right now.
No matter what your reasons may be for it...
I really do appreciate your offer to invest in my company.
But I can't accept your money for nothing.
We're working on a new project which we'll be revealing soon to the public.
Even though I can't tell you what it is now, as soon as we're ready to go public...
just think of it as something that could be beneficial to you from our mobile team.
Since you're making an investment in my firm
the least I can do to make sure that you don't suffer any loss from it.
How interesting.
Both you... and the other.
- Excuse me? - No, it's nothing.
But I do have a condition.
I want you to give me a small voice in the overall operation of your company.
- That's... - I have no intention of getting in your way.
But... please allow someone else to speak for me on my behalf as my representative.
And I'll put the rest of my trust in you.
Just think of it... as my guarantee.
Hey.
I did do as you've asked me to... but what is it that you're up to?
I'm not up to anything.
But... even if you hadn't asked me to do it, I think investing in his firm was a good idea.
There's something about CEO Cha that I like.
I can't help but have faith in him.
- He's someone whom I like very much as well. - What?
Is what I just put on his back a knife for him to get stabbed in the back with
or a shield to prevent him from getting stabbed in the back?
I don't know.
I'm wondering about that myself.
Hey, are you sure that you're not focusing too much on your dating life lately?
I'm keeping track of all your academic grades all the way from here in Korea.
Of course!
I need to go.
Son, I love you and miss you. I'll call you again soon.
- I didn't mean to intrude. - No, not at all.
I was feeling a bit unsettled, so I just wanted to hear my kids' voices.
I see. Is something wrong?
Well, my tooth has been giving me so much pain lately
and things at work lately have been so unsteady and nerve wrecking.
I'm afraid to go home these days because I'm not sure if I'll have a job to come back to!
Me and this mouth of mine. I'm so sorry.
- Please have a seat. - I really am so sorry.
- Join me for a drink? - I can't drink right now because of my tooth.
- So that must've been your son? - Yes, that was my second born.
I told him to concentrate on his studies, but he's too busy dating.
That must still be nice though.
To have someone to talk to when you're having a tough day.
Yes, it's very nice.
But it's not like we didn't have our share of battles to get through.
- Battles? - When my first born was around three...
I tried to start my own business
and my whole family ended up going totally broke as the result of it.
My wife told me she couldn't live like that anymore and wanted to divorce me.
Ugh... just the thought of those times still gives me nightmares and anxiety.
- But how... - Ah, that?
It was our second child.
She found out she was pregnant with him right when she started asking me for the divorce.
I still remember what my wife said to me then.
'Even if things are tough, what other choice do I have?'
She told me that we should think of our second child as our hope
and get a fresh new start on life.
I'm sure... that all parents think of their own children as their hope...
and lives for their children, don't you think?
Even if you had succeeded enough to have paid back all those debts yourself...
I don't think that would've made any difference for me.
Because that money...
still wouldn't have brought back our lost hope.
Lost hope.
Hope.
I didn't know it was you.
Sorry.
Does it hurt?
- Are you okay? - How can a girl...
What did you do, take hand to hand combat training?
It's because you came at me out of nowhere.
You're always so sly and sneaky. Serves you right!
I knew it would be like this.
I feel like I can finally breathe now.
It's tough for you right now, isn't it? I heard that there's no more money coming in?
Don't you have anything saved up?
You would say those words, wouldn't you?
Yes, I do have some money saved up! So don't worry about it.
I'm not worried a bit.
I just want to make sure that I'll still get my paychecks.
Why do you look like that anyway?
Why did you even go through the trouble of coming all the way down here?
You staying here is what I struggle with the most.
I'm going back to Min Young's place tomorrow.
It's not because of you, so don't flatter yourself.
I feel like all my stress is just being melted away right now!
I have to get back to the office.
I have to get going.
Goodnight.
Cha Jung Woo.
You are okay, right?
Have you forgotten who you're talking to?
I'm Cha Jung Woo, the leader of Korea's IT Industry!
Bye.
Um... Ae Ra.
What is it?
Our last conversation up on the rooftop...
No, it's nothing.
Goodnight. I'll just be going now.
- Are you alright? - Yes, I'm fine.
Doctor Kim called again this afternoon.
If you don't come in for the checkup again...
I'll take care of it myself.
But still...
I told you that I'll take care of it!
Director Gook!
Let go.
I said, let go of me!
CEO Cha, that bastard!
Keep checking the online status to see how our ratings are doing.
If you see that we're not able to accommodate all our customers from here
then ask for immediate help from the server team who are waiting on standby.
Yes, Ma'am.
Oh my goodness, CEO Cha! What an honor it is to have you here.
Thank you so much for coming.
I can't ignore such an important company event such as this.
But how is it...
that I don't see the person in charge of this event on site?
Ah, Ms. Na Ae Ra? She's in the warehouse right now.
She's checking all the merchandise over right now.
The warehouse?
The warehouse.
Yes, the warehouse is nice. Dark and out of everyone's sight.
Excuse me?
No, it's nothing.
- You're about to fall into that bag. - You startled me.
I'm in the midst of a very crucial and delicate project right now.
What is it?
What is it that you're doing?
This is the authentic designer purse. Look closely at the buckle.
This one is fake.
Even though they may look the same, there's still a difference.
The buckle on the real one is a tad bit shorter than the buckle on the fake one.
The length of the buckle on the real one is exactly 1cm 5mm.
You can't even see the difference, can you?
I can tell just from looking at it since I worked at the designer boutique for a while.
You know the designer label, 'Sisal', right?
With that one, the one with the wider curve angle of the logo is the fake one.
But with the designer label, 'Desal'...
You can tell the real ones apart from the fakes by checking to see if
the logo is engraved on the front of the buttons or not.
- Pretty difficult, isn't it? - Yeah. It's pretty difficult.
What are you doing?
I was trying to teach you all the crucial differences between the two.
Maybe you have too much time on your hands.
No, I'm a very busy person!
I just happened to be passing by this room
when I noticed that you were in here with your nose pressed up against the purse.
So I just walked in here to make sure that everything was okay.
There you are, CEO Cha.
Yes. I stopped by on my way to a meeting.
I see.
Then I guess you must get going if you want to get to your meeting.
Have a good day.
Ms. Na Ae Ra doesn't have the time to just stand around right now.
Then... have a good day everyone.
Then... I'll just get back to work myself.
Okay, do the best that you can.
Since this will be the last thing that you'll do for this company.
Don't you agree, Ms. Na Ae Ra?
Can you move out of my way?
I have to get through.
Yes, Authenticator Gam. Are you here?
Yes, I'll meet you out in the lobby.
- Authenticator Gam is here. - Thank you for coming.
- Please read this through. - Okay.
What are you doing? Go get the bags.
- I've brought the bags. - Okay, we should be all set.
- Are you nervous? - A little.
I've never done a broadcasted show like this before.
