Color of Woman
Episode 6
[6: So Ra's Decision]
Start over.
Become a new person.
How about it? A new beginning.
A new beginning?
A new beginning. It's not good to be so attached to the past.
It's someone who's at my side right now, so you can't say she's of the past.
A new person?
Dating, love, I don't beg for any of that.
Beg? Why do you think you have to beg for love?
Then is it a business deal?
Although I knew there was a problem, I didn't think it was this serious.
There's no problem at all. I have a job that I like, friends, there's nothing missing.
When you see married people, do you not feel jealous?
Try being married for a year. They'll be jealous of singles.
Haven't you seen the research? It's common knowledge.
Only work and home, going between those two points.
The only man you meet is mean Jun Su.
You said to forget about Jun Su. Then only I'm left.
Yeah, I only have you. Can I not?
Then what if I get married?
You ... married?
Then ... probably someone else will be by my side.
By your side? Who? A poodle? A chihuahua? Or Siamese cats?
Hey!
Who's calling, making his face turn pale?
Is it perhaps So Ra?
Yes Father.
Father? Then it's Chairman.
Hello, it's me, Wang Jin Ju! Your daughter-in-law to be.
Yes, I forgot.
Yes, I understand.
Did something bad happen?
Is it not common for sons to have poor relationships with their fathers?
Am I the only one like that?
Everyone's like that. Who's not?
Are you always unconditionally on my side?
I'm your secretary. No matter what I'll always be on your side.
Then as to a secretary, let me give you an assignment.
What is it ... this assignment?
Hey. What's this?
I've looked over it in detail many times, but I still don't get it.
There's something that Byun So Ra can't comprehend?
How many meanings does this sign have?
Wait a moment, look at the next page.
You should be able to understand easily.
Oh, so that's what it means.
What are you looking at?
- You. - Me? What?
- Just you. - Why?
Nothing. Although we've known each other a long time,
I've never taken a good look at you.
True. You're always so busy looking at other girls.
Fine, take a good look. No matter how you look, I'm pretty.
Yeah, you're pretty.
Prettier than I thought.
To you, I'm the perfect match, you got that?
Do you want to sleep with me?
You're a girl. You're being too straightforward!
I was just kidding. No matter what, it can't be that bad.
If you're dating, then naturally you'll want to sleep together.
Would you date someone you want to sleep with?
Hey, I know your entire dating history. How dare you lie in front of me.
You're a girl, do you not feel embarrassed?
Women like you, a ton exist in this world.
Do they all like you? So many women.
What's so good about you? What?
Hey, stop moving.
If you want to start over again,
it's only possible if you first heal the old wounds.
If there are still wounds, then there can't be a new beginning.
I like the me now. Byun So Ra, fighting!
Jin Ju, please come in for a moment.
I'd like you to pick our company's second largest shareholder Director Park's 30th anniversary gift.
He's given his whole life to the company.
I want to give him a deeply memorable gift.
Of course you must give Director Park an unforgettable gift.
What would that be then?
You can just buy an island in the South Pacific.
What?
It was a joke.
Jin Ju, you have an amazing ability to make people laugh.
Thank you.
Such a nice smell.
What fragrance does he use?
A rich bachelor is indeed different.
He already knows my charisma. He just needs to open his heart a little more, and we'd do even better.
Until you take care of your past, I can wait for you.
What's wrong?
- What? - You keep staring at me.
This won't work.
It must be special and especially touching.
It must be a gift that includes your special feelings.
You've been caught red-handed.
You're the one who was caught red-handed.
No matter how upset you are,
you shouldn't have been with a younger man. That's not right.
I'm very disappointed in you.
Disappointed?!
You're more disappointing, having an affair with a woman who's older than me.
What affair?
Don't forget that it's Director Seong's doing. It's definitely not mine.
She likes me. How can I stop her?
You can't stop anyone from liking another.
That's why I hate you even more.
Why did you give her space to like you?!
I really hate the me who has such a beautiful face.
I'm so tired, I want to cry.
I hate it too. You hate it, I hate it, we all hate it.
I want to die.
If you die, what about me?
What do I have to do for you to stop being angry with me?
Although I wish to stop being angry, I'm always losing my temper.
I don't know my heart anymore either.
That's right! That!
How could I not have thought of it?
You, come out for a moment.
Director Park's someone who already has everything.
This sort of thing won't work.
If it were gift for me, it'd be a piece of cake.
Are you dreaming about catching a rich guy and changing your life in broad daylight?
The leading lady for bad things.
Ms. Wang, give me that ring. I want to give it to someone.
No way!
Although you have nice looks, you aren't at the level of a celebrity.
No charisma nor any strong family background.
You'll just continue aging. Can anything be done?
The conclusion that you reach with your bad head is to catch Head Manager, isn't it?
England's Prince William married a commoner.
- You can't. - Why not?
What kind of chaebol would want someone as stupid as you?
Head Manager's Secretary.
Yes.
These are documents that need to be sent to the US.
You must translate them by the end of today and give them to Head Manager.
For Head Manager? All right.
This? When do I have to finish the translation?
Today.
Why? Do you not know English?
No, my English is really good.
Chan Jin.
Jin Ju.
This, I have to finish translating by today,
but it's all in English.
I'm good at everything, except that my English is a little weak.
Someone who can finish translating this by today, there's only one person.
So Ra?
She's the best. She's the best amongst the smart people I know.
It hurts my pride. I really don't want to ask favors from that girl.
Inner Space.
Advanced technology and medication and TBC effects.
They have the effects of moisturizing, etc.
Do you think that Jun Su likes me just because I'm beautiful?
What kind of chaebol would want someone as stupid as you?
This is extra.
So let's try this first.
Have you been standing there the whole time?
So Ra!
This document needs to be translated.
This? Got it.
Thanks.
All right, Byun So Ra. I admit your ability.
You stole Head Manager's heart with such a hardworking attitude, didn't you?
But I'm busy right now, come back again at five.
No one's smarter than I am.
If there's a will, there's a way.
Hey, here.
You really did it.
What are you talking about?
You're amazing. You did a really good job.
Thanks.
He's complimenting me. Thank you.
Tell it to So Ra.
What?
This document's style hasn't changed one bit, from before until now.
How did he know?
It's really amazing, So Ra's ability.
Yes.
Also, please clear this up.
If I'd known I would have just said I didn't know how.
Now I've provided a wedding dowry for So Ra.
Please give me the documents from the US,
the documents we originally organized for the board meeting.
Yes, here.
I thought you weren't feeling well and were going to leave early.
It's rather that work can't leave me.
You're so busy yet you called the legal team.
To not work on the special line.
Because Chairman Yoon hasn't approved it yet.
Approval?
I know that you're the one with final say.
I did it to help you.
It does us no good to be anxious about this.
What if the patent owner refuses you?
Based on previous experience, she will honor the contract.
What if she wants to increase the amount?
A lot of people will open their mouths and ask for a couple of million without reason.
Slowly adjusting and negotiating is what management is about.
One million. I will decide within that range.
Such a big special, and you'll only need one million?
Yes.
- Is that possible? - Trust me with it.
All right. If you can fix it with just one million.
Is it because you're still young? You think everything in the world is easy, Head Manager.
I understand you're not used to that.
If everything could be so easily solved, then of course that would be great. All things.
It will be solved easily.
Please believe me.
Let's meet after work.
Lately I've been into sending texts.
Song ...
How's preparation for the special line going, Ms. Byun So Ra?
Someone who likes to work must be very happy that she has a lot of work now. Congrats.
I'm finally able to do some serious work so I'm really happy.
What do you mean?
Everything that you've done thus far is not serious work?
I really don't know where you get this ability to anger others.
I didn't mean it like that.
I was just saying that I've found work that's suitable for me.
Real workaholics don't pick and choose their work.
Anyway, don't neglect your other work just because of the special line.
Yes.
Assistant Manager Song.
You seem to be venting your anger at Assistant Manager Byun.
I'm going to go ahead and leave. Bye
Hey! I say, that fast?
I'm leaving.
Hey, you guys ...
These workers! Your boss is glaring at you! Why are you leaving so quickly?
He's so unobservant.
Where are you?
The bus stop.
Why didn't you come during lunch?
I was busy.
We need to finish talking about the patent.
Let's have dinner together and talk.
I have an appointment.
I know it's impossible to get rid of a ten-year misunderstanding in one night.
I'm not interested.
It felt nice opening up about the misunderstanding. That's all.
I have an appointment, so annoying.
You've already been in the company a long time and I just started.
I'll make you food in the future.
I've been worrying ever since your first day here.
Byun So Ra's style.
I'm perfect for you. Let's go, Brand Manager.
I've been tricked! We aren't pulling an all-nighter, are we?
What do you think?
We're going to.
You know well! All right.
Here, hold this for me.
Don't want to.
Hold it.
So good.
What kind of elasticity is this?
I'm going to have to get you a facial massage. Wang Jin Ju is really good at massages.
Don't knit your brows.
Let's go.
This is perfect. Please get me this one.
Yes.
Please, divide the payment into 24 months.
Director Seong, what brings you here?
I came to pick up something I ordered. Why are you here?
I wanted to buy something. See you tomorrow.
That person is an employee of our company. What did he just buy?
He bought a necklace for a woman.
A necklace for a woman?
My eyeballs are going to fall out if I eat gupduki (pig skin).
No matter what, this gupduki still tastes good when it's grilled.
Ye Jin, say "Ah".
Isn't that gupduki (pig skin)?
Yeah, it's a bit shiny.
The hairs are even and soft. It's delicious.
That means that a lot of nutrition was sucked up.
Chewing on this is the best.
It's also very good for your skin.
It's good for your skin?
Then why is your skin like orange peel?
I can plant garlic in it.
Orange peel?
Although it looks like that, this really does taste good.
Do you think I'm easy to bully, Manager Park?
Isn't that why you're treating me to such cheap food?
Really, what's wrong with her?
No no, eating gupduki, chatting, getting to know each other better ...
Stop trying to get friendly with me.
Do you think girls only eat this?
Do you think I don't know? The first time you start off at this sort of place.
Then you go to a place that's even worse, like a cart bar.
Bingo.
Next time we'll hit the food stalls alongside the road.
I'm going to go ahead and leave. I don't want to eat in a place like this.
See you at work tomorrow. Have a good dinner.
- Ye Jin! - Taxi!
Ye Jin, don't treat me like this.
Argh! Really?!
You only know how to take a taxi, that's why you have no money.
Then again where's the bus stop?
Actually this is my first time coming to this place too.
We even especially came to such a faraway place.
Why does it take so long?
Hurry, look this up.
Hey, hey, hey.
I knew this was going to happen.
When you said "together" I knew this was going to happen.
I can't even sleep. How do I leave this place?
Bring this over. The second row over there.
How can I remember all of this?
I'm about to freeze to death. Why did you drag me here?
Because I was too sleepy.
We're going to catch a cold. Let's hurry and finish the drinks and go back inside.
You still haven't finished it? Drink it while walking.
Why are you so anxious? Is it because you're cold?
Yeah.
Then, like this.
Take it off.
I said take it off.
I don't want to.
Take it off.
Take it off. Where are you going? Take it off.
I usually never use my brain, now suddenly I have to make it run.
Byun So Ra who always makes her brain run really fast, why isn't she back yet?
Why are you not back yet?
Why are you in the library with Chan Jin?
We'll probably be really late. Go ahead and sleep.
Oh, these sleep-inducing ...
If you guys come back late, that means that person is alone too.
In that case, I'm going to take my chances.
It's so cold.
Where did he go?
What? My nose is running.
What? It's not him?
What are you doing?
The heater broke.
The mechanic can't come so I was going to go to the cafe.
Get in first. You're going to catch a cold. Come to my house.
I want to refuse, but it's too cold so I can't say no.
I won't repeat myself again.
Thank you.
You seem to be shivering a lot. Do you want anything hot?
Serving drinks is my responsibility. I'm sorry.
It's after work hours. You're just a neighbor now.
Yes.
Is So Ra not off work yet?
She's in the library with Chan Jin.
They said they'd be late, really late.
Mint tea all right? You won't be able to sleep if you drink coffee.
Sleep? I'm okay.
Listen to music for a while. I'll go change clothes.
Okay.
So hot!
Are you all right?
It hurts!
My leg. I can't scar my beautiful leg.
Where are you burnt? Let me see.
It's hot.
It'll be better soon.
It's really hot.
Let's go check your heater.
But it's not broken.
Do you know how to fix heaters too?
Of course.
I'm in a little pain.
If it's not a good time for you, I'll go ahead and go home.
Just stay here. I'll go myself.
He's wavering. That's why he avoided me a moment ago.
Head Manager, wait a moment first.
Let me clear the room first.
I won't be able to wear miniskirts for a while.
Jin Ju, you look very pretty even when you don't wear miniskirts.
Men appreciate women who wear short miniskirts when they don't really care about them.
But if it's their own girlfriend, they get mad.
Jin Ju.
What? Oh, yes.
Head Manager, sometimes when I look at you I'm surprised.
Like when?
When boiling washcloths, making lunchboxes, moving house,
using formal language with secretaries, making tea, and fixing the heater like now.
You also earn a lot of money.
I'm not a gold-digger.
No matter how much money you have, I hate people who think money can buy everything.
Do you look at money then the person or look at the person then the money?
Is that your dating experience?
Yes, my dad wanted me to hurry and marry, so I went on blind dates.
Some were really rich, but they didn't have anything besides money.
Their physical appearance, personality, knowledge, none of them were that great.
They had oily skin though. Their faces were really shiny.
Anyway they tried pursuing me, but I kicked them aside.
Don't you think it was a pity?
Not one bit.
How could I think it was a pity?
A person like you popped up with perfect timing.
Jin Ju.
Yes, sorry.
I'm so scared!
I'm hungry, sleepy, such a sorry state.
What are you pretending? Are you a man?
There's nothing unusual about today. I'll treat. Follow me.
It's cold.
Today's electricity sparks, a little here, a little there.
What does that mean?
What kind of stress did the manager suffer?
Do you want to eat rolled eggs?
There aren't any eggs.
Then we'll eat fried rice. Please give us fried rice.
There isn't any rice either.
Then, what can you make?
I'm not telling you. Something you didn't expect.
Isn't that interesting? Please anticipate it.
I don't know what it tastes like, but it is indeed interesting.
Used the perfect humidity and temperature to cook this crust.
It should taste good. Also, timing is most important. Got it?
You must remember Manager's words.
The problem is, I don't know what he's talking about.
Hurry, turn off the music and turn on the TV.
What?
I told you to turn on the TV.
Thinking about it, the first time I ate with you we had pizza.
When I first entered the college club.
That's right.
Man, we didn't do much when we were in college together.
We did everything.
I got you a loan, wrote your reports, I also took care of your girl troubles.
There's just one thing we didn't do then.
What?
Kiss.
Then do it.
You already said it out loud, let's just do it right now.
You know that I won't. Isn't that why you've gotten boldly closer?
Get over here.
Noona is going to give you a really deep kiss.
It hurts my pride to do it in this sort of place.
A double-story carriage that is in this country for the first time,
hasn't been opened and is already causing lots of problems.
Let me sit.
It's going to open.
Connecting Incheon and Seoul ...
Stop staring. You can't kiss me anyway.
What if I really kissed you? What would you do?
You wouldn't.
If it were another girl, I would probably have already kissed her a thousand times.
Am I that unfeminine?
I'm sick of hearing obvious remarks.
You.
I?
Because you're a person I care for a lot.
That's right. A person you care a lot for like your mom, your grandma, your older sister.
Do you pity me?
No, I'm serious.
If you're being serious, then even more so you should stop.
I'm tired of it.
It's cold.
Dating is begging, kissing is pitying.
Those bad boys who should die. What did they do to you?
Nothing.
Those jerks. Those bad punks.
Those bad punks.
He's wavering. He's already moving towards this side.
It's cold.
Why is the weather this cold?
It's warm like this, isn't it?
Yeah, it's really warm.
Hey, Kang Chan Jin, Byun So Ra.
What? Why did they come out from my house?
What were you just doing?
Why did you just come out from there?
What's so important that you have to visit a woman's house late at night alone?
First answer my question.
American good night.
I'll organize the documents. Good night.
Head Manager, thank you very much for today.
Good night, Jin Ju.
Good night, Jin Ju?
You purposely spilled boiling hot tea on yourself, didn't you?
Do you think I'm some kind of farce?
That's entirely possible.
But, why did the heater suddenly stop working?
How would I know? I'm not a mechanic.
You didn't call a mechanic, but called Jun Su.
Oh my, you're like the police.
How about I start asking questions too?
What's going on between you and Chan Jin? An American what?
Go to sleep. What if your skin becomes bad?
- Hyung. - What did you and So Ra do?
Don't you know So Ra? We were working until really late.
Really?
Really.
But Hyung, do you really want to start over with So Ra?
Sleep.
Do you need coffee to do a facial mask now?
I want to start studying at night too.
- Do what? - Study.
Our Wang Jin Ju wants to study?
In your high school senior years you looked more often in the mirror than at textbooks. You?
I want to become a more professional and more perfect secretary.
Didn't you say that if there's a man you like you have to work hard?
"The Rule".
I can do it.
- Hello. - Yeah.
What? A fake?
Yes.
Did you think that holding a fake can increase your style?
Look well. See how different the real and fake items are.
If you have the notion that you can live by the bare minimum,
then you'll only be able to buy fakes for the rest of your life.
It's carved on your face: "I'm holding a fake."
Even if it's a plastic bag, you have to carry it proudly.
I was like that when I was young. That's why I was able to work to this position today.
In future, you must act more like my secretary. Your actions must be dignified.
I'll give you the money for the fake handbag, so go throw it away immediately.
Immediately.
So Ra?
Good morning, Head Manager.
Your style today is a little different from your usual image.
Is it odd?
No, you look good in anything.
I want to look clever now.
This, it's this.
Director Park's wife probably wouldn't wear it.
Women, even if they're older, they're still women.
Even if she just hangs it in the closet to look at, she most definitely will be happy.
Are women like that?
Yes. They want to look pretty in front of the person they love.
I couldn't say. But women must understand other women better.
I'll leave you to it, then.
Please believe in me.
What do you think is the most romantic dating place?
The amusement park.
It always appears in dramas.
When I go to the amusement park, I feel like I'm a princess.
An amusement park?
Exactly.
Director, did you find out who the special person is?
- Who is it? - Precisely ... Byun So Ra.
What? Byun So Ra?
A person who has spiders as pets sure has interesting hobbies.
He used the $1 million patent to buy Byun So Ra, isn't that so?
Since ancient times, when men give women money or tangible items,
there's always a reason.
Special Line.
I felt long ago there was something amiss.
Byun So Ra, why haven't you turned in your report?
Here it is.
Let me take a look.
Yes. Yes, Director.
Yes. Yes, don't worry.
Until I think of a plan, you must stop it.
Yes, I got it.
I stayed up all night to write that report.
If I wrote it poorly, you could just tell me. What kind of uncultured action is this?
Did you just say "uncultured action", Assistant Manager Byun?
Why did you give this to me so brazenly?
Didn't you already turn it in to the superiors?
Your special patent, isn't Head Manager going to buy it? For one million.
One million?!
One million?
What are you saying?
I never agreed to anything.
Do you want to drag it out longer so that you can get a higher price?
Or, are you using this to catch Head Manager's heart?
Assistant Manager Seong! What you just said, I can sue you for defamation.
Did you think I'd just sit around and do nothing?
Right now all the employees in the company may alienate you.
Do you think you can stay unscathed?
Assistant Manager Byun. I never knew you were that skillful.
You're amazing, aren't you?
What is so attractive about her?
Yes, Head Manager. Yes, I got it.
- Yes, Director. - Buy me some medicine.
Yes, Director.
Why did Oh Mi Rae throw such an expensive branded bag into the trash can?
Ah, this must be a fake.
Because it's too embarrassing to carry around a fake, she left it in the trash can.
But this is legit. For real.
Real.
Oh Mi Rae, you must stop being angry.
Tell Head Manager that I want to see him. I have something to tell him.
What?
You don't need to know.
Don't let any calls come in and don't bother us.
Yes.
Have a seat.
I looked over the material.
Why do you want to buy my patent?
I first want to hear the reason.
Because I need it.
I won't sell it for one million.
How did you know?
Sunbae, you're really good at making people look bad.
Who asked you for money? Cancel it immediately.
Or else I'm going to resign from this job.
I ...
wanted to do something for you.
I thought that if you did what you wanted to do,
that you would be happy.
More importantly, I'm confident that it will succeed.
Let's say that your help works.
Do you think I'd be happy then?
I want to be accepted for my skills.
Do you still not understand me?
If I just wanted to live an easy life, I wouldn't have given up on becoming a professor.
The one million, I won't take it.
One million?!
Head Manager was going to give So Ra one million?
What is going on?
Yoon Jun Su and Byun So Ra,
should we just let them play around and see what happens?
If the special line is successful ...
Then Yoon Jun Su and Byun So Ra will receive a lot of praise.
If they fail, the company will go bankrupt.
Accept praise together or let the company go bankrupt.
Yoon Jun Su is opening a new line just for Byun So Ra.
Who would be most angry hearing this news?
Of course the Chairman would be quite upset.
I have to go meet Chairman Yoon.
We exchanged purses.
What?
That's the purse you said was real and took away a moment ago.
The quality of fakes has improved a lot lately.
Looking at you makes me feel pity, Wang Jin Ju.
What are you going to do about your dream of becoming Kate Middleton?
I think the plans went down the drain.
Not yet.
My bag.
That's right, the documents.
Lately I've been so forgetful. It's all because of Head Manager.
What are you doing, handling my bag?
Nothing. The bag is so pretty.
So that's why Mi Rae bought a fake.
What are you wanting to do, giving me this?
I was ill-mannered towards you. I'm sorry. I'll take it back.
That's quite all right.
What?
If you take it back, you'll look bad.
No. I'll take it back.
No, I'll take it this time.
But in future, don't give me gifts like this.
Got it?
Yes. Thank you.
He has good taste.
I wanted to show you my sincerity.
Is it because of your sincerity that you haven't cleared up the rumors?
Thanks to that, I'm seen as a weird woman.
I've been embarrassed countless times.
How many times do I have to explain?
"You dated me ten years ago."
You wouldn't say this even if you died. So what are you hesitating about?
Just say that we have no connection whatsoever. That'd work.
No connection whatsoever?
So you wouldn't start over with me, would you?
"We were lovers ten years ago". Right?
If that's what you want, I'll do it.
You wouldn't dare.
As long as you want it, I can do anything.
Then, would you start over with me?
You definitely, definitely cannot do it.
I thought Head Manager would be different, but he isn't.
That's why they say "like father, like son".
Seeing the Chairman get into so much trouble because of women,
wouldn't he think "I can't be like that"?
You should learn from it.
Maybe it's because he has so many stepmoms.
Just looking at him you can tell he's never received love.
A perfectionist and bad communicator.
He has so much money, why does he have to give Byun So Ra company money?
Who earned that money?
He treats his work as a joke when dating. Let's go. Let's go.
Just looking at him you can tell he's never received love.
A perfectionist and bad communicator.
I wanted to let you do something that you liked.
"I like you." Is that what it means?
I wanted to express my sincerity.
"Believe in me." That's what it means.
You fool.
Jun Su's trauma, does it have to do with irresponsibility?
Anyone can have trauma. Jun Su has trauma too.
It's also possible that his trauma is greater than mine.
I am Head Manager Yoon Jun Su.
The rumors about me in the company are false.
It's been interesting in the company lately because of these rumors, hasn't it?
Even if you say bad things about me, I will continue to pay your salaries.
I will also give lots of bonus.
I will launch the special line successfully to prove my capability.
The patent I need for the project is not solely ordered by me, but will be properly investigated by the team.
There is one last thing I would like to say.
For a long time my love was in abeyance, but now it's about to start again.
As long as she agrees to it.
What? Who brought this?
What do you mean, who? The deliveryman.
I didn't buy anything though.
Did you order it online a few days ago and forget about it?
So open it and you'll find out what it is.
What is that?
Is the sender not written there?
A surprise gift? So romantic!
Byun So Ra, have you already become Head Manager's wife or something?
Don't you see that Manager and I are working?
What is it?
Oh my gosh.
Silk!
Brand name.
Who would send this?
What are you pretending for?
Assistant Manager Song, why are you always questioning her?
You're really cheap for a man.
It's branded. It must be very expensive.
The sender must be rich. Is it ...
- Head Manager? - Head Manager?
One million isn't enough and he sends her branded goods?
If I show my sincerity, will you believe in me?
Pig skin. Ah, I'm getting angry...
Women, even older women,
they will like it even if they just hang it in their closet.
Are women like that?
Did I lose?
I haven't even played my hand.
Is it game over already?
