[pop music playing]
DYNAMITE KISS
[tense music playing]
Then why don't you prove to me
that this is indeed
your lifeline?
[Da-rim gasps]
[grunts, breathes heavily]
[gasps]
[both breathing heavily]
[melancholy music playing]
[Da-rim inhales sharply, sighs]
[Ji-hyeok] Is this stupid piece of paper
that important?
You almost died just now.
You know that?
I'm trying to live.
I want to live.
I already told you.
These are not just pieces of paper.
These are our livelihoods and lifelines.
So don't just toss them
like they're nothing,
and please read them over.
[sighs]
Please.
EPISODE 4
[chuckles]
-[Jun, in English] Checkmate.
-[in Korean] What?
[Seon-u sighs]
I surrender. [sighs]
You really need to practice, Dad.
It's not fun winning all the time.
I win a lot of things too, you know?
For example?
In tickling wars!
-Tickle, tickle!
-Stop! [giggles]
You silly boy.
[both sigh]
Jun, what do you want for dinner?
-Dumplings!
-Dumplings.
Okay. Order received.
[crickets chirping]
[sighs]
[vehicles passing]
-[Da-rim grunts]
-Get in.
[stammers] No, I'm fine.
The bus stop is right over there.
You can't ride a bus in that state.
Hurry up and get in.
I'm really okay.
[romantic music playing]
[inhales sharply, stammers]
[both grunt]
[Da-rim] I'm fine.
Your coat will get wet.
I don't want you to get sick or whatever
and ask me to pay for your hospital bills.
We'll arrive at your place in 15 minutes.
-[sighs]
-Use it to present your report.
Wait, you want me to present
26 pages in 15 minutes?
Time is ticking.
[gasps]
Right, okay. Where should I start?
First, we focused
on monitoring the changes
in the bottle materials and grip,
the texture and shape of the nipple,
and the air vent function.
Based on our research, we've concluded
that there are several metrics
in which our product excels
compared to other products in the market.
Those include…
[no audible dialogue]
[dreamy romantic music playing]
The content isn't bad.
But you said
the report is 26 pages, right?
Yes.
Let's cut it down to five.
Why? That would be a waste.
A long report doesn't prove
you're good at your job.
A good report seduces you.
It makes you want to learn more about it,
see the product, and touch it.
Even documents need to be sexy.
Even documents need to be sexy.
How do you do that?
[Da-rim sucks on teeth, exhales sharply]
Hold on.
-[sighs] It was here somewhere.
-[glove compartment opens]
-Here it is.
-[paper rustles]
This is an old report I worked on.
Use it as a reference.
I see. [chuckles]
[gasps]
[exclaims]
Create a table for the analysis
with the other companies' products
you mentioned earlier.
Hang on. Okay.
[Ji-hyeok] Create a table.
For the reviews,
quantify them and create a graph
showing the satisfaction level
for each category.
You want to be able to visualize the data
as much as possible
so it can be easily understood
at a glance.
"Easily," "visualize."
[chuckles] You really are a pro.
That's nothing.
I'll make the revisions
as soon as possible for your review.
Thank you so much
for driving me home today.
I really hope
to see you at the office tomorrow.
[sighs]
[inhales sharply, sighs]
[thug] Hey, young lady.
Are you Go Da-jeong's older sister?
[footsteps approaching]
That would make you
-Go Da-rim, right?
-[Da-rim gasps]
[hums]
[sucks on teeth]
YOU CAN DO I
KEEP GOING!
[chuckles]
You really are a handful.
This has got to be a joke. [chuckles]
My goodness.
That Ms. Go Da-rim you're looking for
lives with the owner downstairs.
I'm just the tenant who lives above her.
You're not her?
No, I'm not.
-It's not her. What's going on?
-[stammers]
-It's not her! She says it's not her!
-[thug 2 groans]
You little…
-[chuckles]
-[thug clears throat]
-Then let me ask you something.
-Sure, go ahead.
Has the landlord's family
been coming home recently?
Oh, I almost forgot.
Ms. Go Da-rim said
she was going on a trip
far away to someplace overseas.
-Overseas?
-Yeah.
She really set her mind to it.
She fled overseas, you punk!
-Hey, what have you been doing?
-Wait…
-I'll get going now.
-[thug 2] Boss! Wait.
-Apologies for disturbing you.
-No problem.
Goodbye, ma'am.
She fled overseas.
What have you two been doing?
How are we going to catch her now?
[Ji-hyeok] Ms. Go Da-rim!
Ms. Go Da-rim!
-You left your phone.
-Go Da-rim…
-Ms. Go Da-rim.
-[thug 2] He said, "Go Da-rim."
[Ji-hyeok] Who forgets their phone?
-Go…
-[Ji-hyeok] You're such a handful.
-She's Go Da-rim.
-Go Da-rim?
-[thug 2] Her.
-You…
-[gasps]
-Go Da-rim, you…
-[screaming]
-You! Hey!
-What? What's up?
-[Da-rim] Run!
-What's wrong?
-[Da-rim] Run! Go!
Go Da-rim!
-Go Da-rim, you…
-Run!
[rock music playing]
[thug] Hey, Go Da-rim!
How dare you lie to me!
You're dead meat!
-[Seon-u] Hmm?
-[Da-rim] This way!
-Isn't that Da-rim?
-[thug] Go Da-rim!
Get her!
-Get her!
-[thug 2] Stop right there, Go Da-rim!
-What the hell?
-[thug] Go Da-rim!
[dogs barking in distance]
[thug] Hey, Go Da-rim! You…
Just wait until I catch you!
Hey, Go Da-rim! You little…
Move!
Go catch her! Go!
Come here, Go Da-rim!
[exclaims]
[panting] Hold on, Da-rim. Oh, geez.
Da-rim…
Why are we running?
[pants]
-[Da-rim] Just run for now.
-What's going on?
-[groans]
-Da-rim.
[thug] Hey, Go Da-rim!
Hey! Go Da-rim!
Where the hell did she go?
Hey, you go over there.
-You go over there!
-Yes, sir.
Just wait until I catch you. Damn it.
[both breathe heavily]
-I think we're going to get caught.
-[shushes]
[tense music playing]
[Da-rim gasps]
[footsteps approaching]
[Seon-u] Da-rim! Where are you going?
[exhales sharply]
Damn it, Go Da-rim!
[both sighing]
[dramatic music playing]
[gasps]
-[sighs] Come here.
-[Da-rim grunts]
Who the hell are you?
I'm her boss.
-And who the hell are you?
-Me?
I'm her husband.
[R & B music playing]
-Are you okay?
-[Da-rim] Yeah.
-[Seon-u] Let's go.
-[Da-rim] Okay.
How did you…
[Ji-hyeok] I'm sorry.
I misunderstood the situation.
[Seon-u] It's all right.
I also made a mistake.
I was worried
because this is my wife's first job.
I'm glad that she found herself
such a good boss.
[sighs]
I hope you continue
looking out for my Rim.
[Ji-hyeok] Yes, sure.
Mr. Gong, we'll get going now then.
Thank you so much for today.
[Da-rim sighs]
-[Seon-u] Let's go.
-Okay.
[chuckles]
-[Seon-u] Were they loan sharks?
-[Da-rim] Yeah.
[Seon-u] We need to be careful.
-Ow!
-What's wrong?
-Are you okay?
-It's still hurting where I sprained it.
[Seon-u] Hold on.
Hop on.
No, I'm fine.
[Seon-u] Hurry up.
-[Da-rim] I'm fine though.
-[Seon-u] Hurry up.
Oh…
-Come on.
-[Da-rim] Okay.
-[Seon-u exclaims]
-[Da-rim grunts]
[Seon-u sighs]
LOAN AGREEMEN
NAME: GO DA-JEONG
[Seon-u] Da-rim,
drink this and warm yourself up.
-Be careful. It's hot.
-[Da-rim] Thanks.
[sighs]
Where am I going to find 30 million won?
It's illegal to demand repayment
from the family.
Let's report this to the police.
What if reporting it
leads to further retaliation?
Maybe I should just ask them nicely
if I can pay them back
in small installments.
Da-rim, I guarantee
this won't end with 30 million.
Look.
With such a high interest rate,
your debt will grow faster
than your payments.
Report it tomorrow morning,
no matter what.
[Da-rim groaning]
Okay.
[Da-rim sighs]
[sighs]
You haven't eaten yet, right?
Let's eat. I'll make you something.
I have a lot of work.
You still need to eat something.
I don't have much of an appetite today.
Hey, Jun must be waiting for you.
You should go upstairs.
Thanks for today.
[sighs] Okay.
-Get some rest.
-Mmm.
Unbelievable.
"My Rim"?
"My Rim"?
If they love each other so much,
why did they even fight?
He didn't even come after her
when she ran away to Jeju.
[scoffs]
-[sighs]
-[Gyeong-min grunts]
Are you talking about that woman again?
-You scared me!
-[groans]
-What are you doing here?
-I guess I just dozed off.
[Ji-hyeok sighs]
I came because you were ignoring my calls.
Did you receive the report?
Yeah.
Why did you send
Ms. Go to do your job?
I was summoned
and interrogated by Director Gong
about why you weren't coming to work.
-So?
-I told her you were on sick leave.
I've run out of excuses,
so come to work starting tomorrow.
I'm too embarrassed
to face the team members.
They call you Mr. Freeloader
because it looks like
you get paid to slack off.
Anyway, that woman you met in Jeju…
I mean, the mom. Did you see her again?
Yeah. She was with her husband.
Man.
She was nowhere to be found
when you were desperately looking for her.
And now, it seems like
you run into her everywhere.
Does she live near here?
Or near the office?
Why would I even care?
Why are you so angry?
Wait. Don't tell me you're jealous.
[chuckles]
Did seeing her husband
tie your stomach in knots?
What? Jealous?
-Yeah.
-Who?
-[chuckles] Me?
-[in English] Yes.
[in Korean] How does
that make any sense? [laughs]
[Gyeong-min] Having feelings for someone
never makes any sense.
Even Shakespeare said,
"Love is merely a madness."
[Gyeong-min chuckles]
And it's a love
that can never come true, no less.
How maddening it must be.
Now,
at times like these,
we must focus on work.
You'll forget all about it
when you show up to work tomorrow
and see the faces of your team members.
[in English] Okay? [chuckles]
[in Korean] I'm off.
-[sighs]
-[door opens]
Seeing her face will help me forget her?
[door closes]
It's only making me crazier.
[sighs]
[Da-rim sighs]
Even documents need to be sexy.
It must make you want to see the product,
learn more about it,
and touch…
[romantic music playing]
[exclaims, gasps]
No, this isn't right.
There's no time to be distracted
by stuff like that.
Okay, even documents need to be sexy…
No.
[sighs] Mmm.
Right, a graph.
[phone buzzing]
GYEONG-MIN
You're up, right?
Get ready for work.
My whole body is aching.
I think I overdid it yesterday.
Did you pull a muscle
relaxing in your hotel room all day?
If you don't show up today, I'm going to
bring the chairman and storm in there.
[phone beeps]
[sighs]
[Da-rim] I'll make the revisions
as soon as possible for your review.
I really hope
to see you at the office tomorrow.
[groans]
MONITORING REPOR
[Da-rim] Do you find it sexy?
[smooth jazz music playing]
[chuckles]
I didn't sleep a wink last night.
I wanted it to look sexy.
Listen, Jun's mom.
That's no way for a mom to act.
Do I look that easy to you?
No, I just wanted to seduce you--
Right, so why do you want to seduce me?
No, that's not what I meant.
Not me. I wanted the report to seduce you.
Remember what you told me last night?
"A good report seduces you.
It makes you want to learn more about it,
see the product, and touch it."
"Even documents need to be sexy."
I stayed up all night editing it.
[exhales sharply]
You should be clearer in your delivery.
Are you trying to confuse me or what?
I'm sorry.
[sighs]
[clicks tongue] It's good enough.
[sighs] Thank goodness.
You must have been
quite shocked yesterday.
I would've been in big trouble
if it hadn't been for you.
Thank you so much.
I promise I'll work really hard.
-Don't get the wrong idea.
-Pardon?
I only helped you yesterday
out of human decency.
How I feel about you hasn't changed.
Where's your resignation letter?
I thought that issue was settled.
-Of course, it isn't.
-[gasps]
Seeing your perfectly fine husband
just pissed me off even more.
Hand in your resignation immediately.
Hmm?
[sighs]
[sighs] Where am I going
to find 30 million won?
[sighs]
If, by any chance,
you change your mind, call me.
The one thing I can guarantee
is that we will treat you
with the utmost respect
and courtesy as an artist.
[manager] It's surprisingly thorough
and well-organized.
[Gyeong-min exclaims]
[manager] It also covers
some points we hadn't considered.
In particular,
the bottle's marking color
and grip suggestions
can be implemented
and applied immediately.
I guess these are the kind of
innovative tips and ideas
that only our Mother TF
can come up with.
Everyone loved it.
-[coworker cheers]
-[Gyeong-min] Well done.
[Jin-hui exclaims]
Especially Ms. Go's boiling
sterilization test and report revisions.
-Your all-nighters really paid off.
-With Da-rim's touch,
the report became
really polished overnight.
-I agree.
-It became super refined.
[Jin-hui] I could never do that.
Not at all. We all worked on it together.
Thank you for your hard work as well,
Mr. Kang.
-Come on, I didn't do anything.
-[coworker 2] You certainly did.
You got us all those baby bottles
from our competitors,
got us late-night snacks,
and even stayed up with us.
-You're the best.
-[coworker chuckles]
I'd say you did much more
than someone who was never around
and only showed up to submit it.
[coworker] Yeah,
there are people like that.
People who freeload and take credit
for their team members' work.
Is that why
his nickname is "Mr. Freeloader"?
I thought it was because
he was stingy or something.
Not at all.
We owe all this success to Mr. Gong.
He was the one who taught me the trick
to summarize our 20-plus pages
into a 5-page report.
-[coworker] He did?
-[Da-rim] Yes.
Then I guess he did pull some weight.
Of course.
Mr. Gong may sound
a bit abrasive at times,
but he's actually
a very warm person. [chuckles]
Innate leadership!
Deep affection
for his employees. [chuckles]
You witnessed it for yourself.
Abrasive on the outside,
warm on the inside. I guess I agree.
She agrees! [chuckles]
We all agree!
[Gyeong-min, coworkers cheer]
[Gyeong-min chuckles]
The report was in such a dismal state
that I had no choice but to intervene.
However, this will be the last time.
Please take care of your business,
so I don't have to be disturbed.
Don't bother me.
[clears throat]
Oh, my gosh! [whimpers]
[romantic music playing]
[heartbeat thumping]
Are you okay?
Are you hurt?
Uh…
I thought about the exhibition
you mentioned last time.
I put together a proposal
for the photography exhibition.
To start,
I did some research on a possible concept,
mission statement, and exhibition design.
Regarding exhibition design,
there could be three…
[Ha-yeong] Those gentle, doe eyes.
That sharp nose.
Those plump lips.
-[swallows]
-All of that…
Ms. Yu?
Yes? Oh, right.
-Are you okay?
-[exclaims]
What's wrong with me?
Why are you so handsome today?
[chuckles]
I came because I had a few questions
before making up my mind.
First, regarding profit distribution--
[person] Ha-yeong.
Chanal has new arrivals.
Let's go have a look.
-You're with a guest.
-Uh-huh.
This is Mr. Kim Seon-u, who will be
participating in our upcoming exhibition.
And this is Ms. Han Mi-ok,
the director of the art hall. [chuckles]
Nice to meet you. I'm Kim Seon-u.
What a shame.
The exhibition has been canceled.
What? Why?
Excuse us for a moment.
-[door opens]
-What?
What are you talking about?
You said you'd persuade Dad.
I did because you said you'd do your best.
But is this what you call doing your best?
[Mi-ok] At the very least,
you should bring an artist with a name
to the table.
[chuckles] This is just insulting.
You brought someone so insignificant.
Mom, how could you say that?
PHOTOGRAPHY EXHIBITION PROPOSAL
[Mi-ok] I don't want third-rate artists.
Wrap it up. I'm off to Chanal by myself.
[Ha-yeong grunts]
[sighs]
-Oh…
-Ah.
It appears coming here was a mistake.
No, that's not--
It looks like you're in trouble
because of me.
I'm sorry.
-Uh…
-I'll be off then.
I heard the report from Ji-hyeok's team
was quite useful.
[scoffs]
[chuckles] He may be snappy
with his words,
but I guess he's still working hard.
[sighs]
Well…
-Never mind.
-What is it?
You can tell me anything.
[sighs]
[Ji-hye] The truth is,
Ji-hyeok has been skipping work
without notice until yesterday.
He missed the submission deadline
for his report.
He's having trouble with team management,
so I've been paying
more attention to them.
I can't tell if he's just a poor fit
or if he's struggling to adjust.
-[sighs]
-As his older sister,
I can't help but be concerned.
Is that so?
That's what that punk did?
[knocks on door]
Did you call for me?
You've only just started working,
and you're skipping work already?
Do you think this is a joke?
I completed
the assigned task without any issues,
so what's the problem?
Don't take your job
or this company lightly.
Running a business isn't like consulting,
where you can just
make it look good enough to pass.
You must lead the organization responsibly
to achieve respectable results.
Isn't securing the partnership
with Taeyu C&T…
under the guise of an arranged marriage,
the result I'm expected to achieve?
I don't recall any of this grandiose talk
about the organization or its management
in the agreement.
So what? You're just going to
keep this behavior up?
You don't need to worry about that.
I'll carry on the corporate employee act
just enough to avoid Chairman Yu
hearing anything negative.
I'm a man of my word.
Unlike someone.
[Ji-hye] You…
Why that punk…
Unbelievable.
[Chang-ho sighs]
[sighs]
[phone buzzing]
MY MOM
Hey, Mom.
Who is this?
[panting]
-[sighs]
-Mom.
-What happened?
-[stammers]
It's nothing.
You broke your leg. How is this nothing?
[Ji-hyeok sniffles]
I just fell down the stairs.
It was an accident.
It was an accident, right?
It really was an accident, right?
It was.
Don't worry.
Are you hurt anywhere else?
What about your arm? Is your arm okay?
They said I was fine.
They ran all the tests.
[tense music playing]
Mom.
Do you know how scared I was?
[Ji-hyeok's mother yells] How?
How could you do this?
I didn't know she had the child.
I didn't even know she got pregnant.
I only found out after she died.
Is that an excuse?
I truly loved you.
It might have been an arranged marriage,
but I respected and trusted you
as my husband and Ji-hyeok's father.
So how could you bring that child here?
Do you not care about Ji-hyeok?
Then what was I supposed to do?
Do you remember?
You told me that if I took care
of your father's bankruptcy,
you'd repay me somehow.
I'll pay off that debt.
So you repay me with this.
You can't be serious. [breathes shakily]
[Ji-hyeok's mother sobbing]
[Ji-hyeok] That was the first day
I heard my mom cry.
That's when I realized
she could actually cry,
louder
and more sorrowfully than me.
It was the sound of the ground
beneath my feet crumbling away.
After my sister arrived,
my mom lost her smile.
So it made me want to do everything well.
I was willing to do anything
if it could make her smile.
Mom, I got a medal in tae kwon do.
[Ji-hyeok] Mom?
Mom!
Mom!
[rain pattering on window]
Really?
-Yeah.
-[chuckles]
What did that team leader
who's been giving you a hard time say?
When I brought my A-game,
-he was just stunned.
-[Myeong-sun chuckles]
I knew you were going to do well.
Ever since you were a kid,
you've always worked hard at everything,
and you've always taken good care
of those around you.
You were loved by all wherever you went.
-Was I?
-Yeah.
You just wait and see.
Even that team leader or whatever
will come to adore you.
[Da-rim] I knew it.
My mom is the only one in this world
who truly sees me for who I am.
[both giggle]
[sighs, exclaims]
-[singsongy] You must feel so refreshed.
-[chuckles]
What? Mr. Gong?
Ms. Go Da-rim?
What are you doing here?
Oh…
[Myeong-sun] Is he your team leader?
Yeah.
Hello.
I'm Go Da-rim's mother.
-Wait, let me…
-Mom, you can't stand up.
He's your boss.
I have to greet him properly.
-No, please sit.
-Mom.
No, wait.
The floor must be cold.
[Ji-hyeok] Is that better?
Don't strain yourself.
Thank you, sir.
Thank you for hiring my Da-rim.
Things were rough for her for a long time.
But now that she's working,
her eyes are sparkling and full of life.
[sighs]
I believe it's all thanks to working
with a great man like you.
Please continue to take
good care of my Da-rim.
[Ji-hyeok] Sure thing.
Please be kind to her.
Is your mother very unwell?
The men who chased me yesterday…
are loan sharks.
The truth is, my younger sister
borrowed money from everywhere
before going into hiding.
The shock led my mother to collapse,
and she even ended up
having heart surgery.
I see.
And now?
She's a lot better.
That's good to hear.
I was so scared
when I first found out what happened.
I felt nauseous
and dizzy.
I don't even know how to describe it.
[melancholic music playing]
Like the ground…
was crumbling beneath you?
That's it.
It felt like the ground
beneath my feet crumbled away,
and I was free-falling
with no end in sight.
I was such a fool.
My mom is only human.
How did I never once think
that she could collapse?
Because she's your mom.
Because she was always there for you…
keeping you safe.
Every time the hospital staff calls out
"Ms. Jeong Myeong-sun's guardian,"
I have this awakening
and realize that I'm my mom's guardian.
Now,
it's my turn to protect her.
It was only then that I realized
how heavy a burden my mom
had been carrying as my guardian
for all these years.
And how…
peacefully and comfortably
I had been living
in a sanctuary under her protection.
Speaking of which, Mr. Gong,
could you please
give me and our team members
another chance?
As mothers and guardians,
they all live
with desperate determination.
Please give them the chance
to give it their all without any regret.
Can you just help us out…
for six months?
Please.
I'm trying to live.
These are not just pieces of paper.
These are our livelihoods and lifelines.
-Hello.
-Hello.
I say, "Mother." You say, "TF." Okay?
-Yes!
-Okay.
Mother.
-TF!
-TF!
Everyone loved it.
Really?
[sighs] As if you all would stop
just because I say so.
Everyone's so stubborn
with such strong personalities.
All right, fine.
Knock yourselves out.
Really?
Do you mean it?
You can't bring up our kiss again
and threaten to fire me and all, okay?
Lower your voice!
That's nothing to brag about.
I mean, you just keep bringing it up.
[upbeat music playing]
I'm going to forget about it,
so don't ever mention it again.
It was nothing.
Right.
It was nothing.
[music continues]
Forget about it?
What a relief.
Such a relief.
I'm on my way now.
Okay.
All right.
Do you have a minute?
I wanted to apologize for yesterday.
Not right now.
Right.
I need to go pick up my son.
You have a child?
Why?
What do you mean why?
He was born. That's why.
So you're married.
-Hello.
-Oh.
We have a reservation under Kim So-yeong.
Hello, this is Jun's dad.
I was wondering if it'd be possible
for Jun to stay for the nighttime care.
There's no one
who can pick him up right now.
I can go.
I'll pick him up.
Just a moment.
Will you really?
Yes.
Hello?
I'm going to have an acquaintance
pick him up.
Okay, thank you. Bye.
My mom made these cookies.
-Really?
-Awesome.
What do you think? Don't they look tasty?
Yeah. She's the best.
My mom's really good at cooking too.
[child 1] My mom cooks well
and is really pretty.
[child 2] No, my mom's prettier.
-You're wrong.
-My mom's prettier.
[child 1] No, my mom's prettier.
-No, you're wrong!
-[Ha-yeong] Who's Jun?
-[child 1] She's so pretty.
-[child 2] She is.
[child 1] Wow, she's so pretty.
Me.
Okay.
Let's go.
Who are you?
Your dad's friend.
[child 1] She said
she's friends with his dad.
I'm here on behalf of Mr. Kim Seon-u.
Let's go.
Bye, Jun.
-Jun, you're so cool!
-I'm so jealous!
-[child 1] I'm so jealous of him.
-[child 2] He's so lucky.
-You think I'm pretty too, right?
-Yes.
[Ha-yeong sighs]
I guess you can't fool
the pure, innocent eyes of a child.
[giggles]
You're pretty handsome too.
Do you take after your mom or dad?
Probably my dad.
Why probably?
I don't know what my mom looks like.
I've never met her.
Really?
Are you just my dad's friend
or his girlfriend?
Just a friend.
I see.
Why?
Do you want me to be
your dad's girlfriend?
Yes.
[chuckles]
Let's go.
[Ji-hye] How did the TF team
produce such a report?
[Mr. Ma] Oh, that?
I reviewed it as well,
and it was very informative
and well-organized.
It had excellent readability.
[Ji-hye] Exactly.
I'm asking how a bunch of
loser stay-at-home moms pulled this off.
The loser stay-at-home moms
couldn't have written that.
I bet it was written
by Mr. Gong or Mr. Kang.
This won't do.
We'll have to put them in the spotlight.
A live commerce?
Today?
[Mr. Ma] Yes, it's an emergency.
Our competitor is about to livestream
a huge flash sale on diapers.
If we don't actively counter it
with one of our own,
we'll suffer a major blow.
But out of all days,
the entire broadcast team
just had to be on a business trip.
This sounds like it's outside our purview.
No one here has experience with that.
What are you talking about?
We've changed hundreds,
thousands of diapers. [puffs]
It's a piece of cake.
You've changed diapers,
but you've never done a broadcast before.
[Mr. Ma] That might actually be better.
They may lack experience in hosting,
but we could work the real mom angle.
Appeal to consumers with authenticity!
That's the kind of strategy
that works in today's market!
I was a member
of the broadcasting club in high school.
My friends used to rave about my voice.
If the sales are strong, it could help
our performance reviews later too.
It sounds like a good opportunity.
I mean, that's true, but…
Forget it.
Look for another team.
What if something goes wrong
during the live?
Mr. Gong,
can't you trust us just this once?
-We're confident we can do it.
-Yeah!
-Right?
-Yeah.
[chuckles]
[Mr. Ma] All right, then.
-I'll take that as a yes.
-Yes.
[Mr. Ma] Make sure you prepare well.
-I can't believe it.
-I know we can do this.
-We need to start prepping now.
-Right.
-We need to come up with a plan.
-Right.
-Of course.
-Right.
I'll write the script.
-That's great.
-Sounds good.
[chattering indistinctly]
Ms. Bae and Ms. Jang will be our hosts.
-Okay.
-Okay.
-Ms. Lee and I will do the prep.
-Okay.
The purchasing of props
and the giveaway prize
will be done by Ms. Go and…
Mr. Gong.
I have to participate?
Were you planning on freeloading?
[sighs]
Fine, I'll do it.
For the giveaway prize,
how about BeBeZza,
our company's baby formula maker?
I looked into that as well,
but the new model sold out
as soon as it launched,
so even HQ can't secure inventory.
They said the next restock
will happen next week.
Why don't we
think of something else for today?
That's too bad.
We'd sell out with a BeBeZza giveaway.
Nan-suk and I'll be heading to the salon.
It'd be rude not to at least
do our hair for a broadcast.
-We probably should.
-Yes.
Great. But first, bring it in.
-Bring it in.
-Come on.
You all remember, right?
-I say, "Mother." You say, "TF." Okay?
-Okay.
-Mother.
-TF!
[cheering, whooping]
We got this! Let's go!
Nan-suk.
Thank you for giving us a chance,
Mr. Gong.
A chance. That's it.
You figure out the rest.
I'm also just giving you a ride.
That's it.
Don't even think about
asking me for support.
I won't. Don't worry.
[chuckles]
[whimsical music playing]
[exclaims]
[gasps]
These are so cute.
Don't you think these would be adorable
as props in the background?
Not really.
Which one do you think is better?
That one.
My gosh, I knew it.
Your husband has a discerning eye.
This is our recent best seller.
"Husband"?
Who are you calling her husband?
Pardon?
We're just work colleagues.
Team leader. Team member.
I told you I didn't want to shop.
-I'm sorry.
-[store employee] No worries.
-[music continues]
-[sighs]
[Da-rim sighs]
-Let's go if you have everything.
-Not yet.
I still have to get the giveaway prize.
That's what matters most.
It needs to be impactful.
What should we get?
You'd know better than me
what moms would like.
[promoter] Now, for the winning couple
of today's game…
-Right, of course, I do know.
-Ta-da!
-I do, but…
-This is sold out everywhere.
It's the newest baby formula maker
from Natural BeBe.
BeBeZza!
[customers clamoring]
BeBeZza?
-Are you excited about this?
-BeBeZza?
-Make some noise!
-Mr. Gong, it's BeBeZza!
-It's BeBeZza!
-What are you doing?
[clamoring continues]
[promoter, in English]
I say, "BeBe." You say, "Zza."
-[in Korean] BeBeZza!
-Do you see how the moms are going wild?
We need to win that
and give that away on our livestream.
-We must.
-Let's just buy something else.
We have to sign up for the game now.
Wait. Hold on.
You can do it alone. Good luck!
How can I?
Only married couples can participate.
Just once.
-BeBeZza!
-BeBeZza!
[echoing] Please.
I'm really about to lose it.
The first round is called
"Newspaper of Love."
If even one of the couples
steps on the ground outside the newspaper,
that couple will be out.
Couples that survive five seconds
will move on to the next round.
Get ready!
PANGPANG, BULLDOZER
LOVEY, DOVEY
ENTJ
SKY, ROCKE
-Five, four, three, two, one!
-Five, four, three, two, one!
Let the second round begin!
-Five, four, three, two, one!
-Five, four, three, two, one!
Let the third round begin!
[wife exclaims, laughs]
[Da-rim exclaims]
-[promoter] Five, four, three…
-[spectators] Five, four, three…
[promoter] This is getting intense.
-Two, one!
-Two, one!
Pass! It's time for the fourth round.
The difficulty level
is getting much higher.
Here we go!
Oh no, my handsome husband.
Mr. Gong, are you okay?
Are you okay?
Yes, I'm okay.
[grunts] Wait, hold on. Watch my hair.
-[groans]
-Hang on.
[clamoring]
[Da-rim shouts]
[gasps]
Damn it, this is brutal. [panting]
[shouts]
[straining]
[promoter] Now, the final round
for the last two teams will be
"From Mouth to Mouth."
Ready? Start!
[blows whistle]
[spectators cheer]
[romantic music plays]
[pants]
[music intensifies]
[promoter] The winning team is…
Congratulations, Team One!
[cheering]
[heartbeat thumping]
[music ends]
-Seriously!
-[gasps]
Why did you make me participate?
I'm sorry.
Get in.
It just made us run late.
Hold on.
Got it.
[gasps] My BeBeZza…
Hey.
I need to use the bathroom.
Okay.
Excuse me?
You want to make a trade?
-Yes.
-[wife scoffs]
-Babe.
-Why would we?
We worked our butts off to win this,
and this is worth way more than that.
-Right, babe?
-Yeah. What a weirdo.
[ominous music playing]
How much do you want?
It's a black card.
They just agreed to trade it?
Yes.
They said their baby started eating
solid food or something,
and they just entered the contest for fun.
Really?
But they were playing
like their lives depended on it.
[chuckles] Anyway,
they're such nice people.
I'm sure they could have sold it
for a lot of money.
How nice of them.
-It was pretty expensive.
-Sorry?
-What?
-What?
Nothing. [scoffs]
[Da-rim hums]
[Western-style music plays]
What sort of game did you play
for them to give you that?
[Da-rim stammers]
Well…
You know, just a normal game. [laughs]
[clears throat] What about
Ms. Bae and Ms. Jang?
They said they were getting changed.
Oh, there they…
[exclaims]
Nan-suk!
What's wrong?
What? It's nothing.
[Gyeong-min]
Something is clearly going on.
Your face is a mess.
[Nan-suk] I'm fine.
Should I get ready over there?
What happened? Tell me.
No, don't worry about it.
Did something happen to your child?
Well, I…
My youngest has always been weak.
He's running a fever of 40°C,
and he's at the ER right now.
[sobbing] I'm just so worried about him.
Go to him.
No, Mr. Gong, it's fine.
I need to finish work first.
It's an order.
Go.
[Gyeong-min chuckles] Yes, you should.
Your child is sick.
What could be more important?
We'll take care of the broadcast,
so hurry and go.
[sighs]
Are you sure?
Okay. Thank you.
[stammers]
-Thank you.
-Okay.
Get there safely.
[Gyeong-min] Then…
Who will host?
Ms. Jang has to do it alone.
Where is she?
[Jin-hui] I'm right here.
Jin-hui.
What's wrong with you?
Well, you see…
Oh, my goodness.
I look like a news anchor.
This definitely calls for a selfie.
My goodness.
Come on, lighting.
You need to help me out here.
Don't worry. I can fix you.
[strains]
[screams]
-I can do it while wearing my sun--
-Are you being serious right now?
You should also go to the hospital. Go.
-Wait, hold on.
-Ji-hyeok.
-I'm sorry.
-You should go.
-I think I hurt my back too.
-Oh, gosh.
-What am I going to do?
-You'll be okay.
Should we just cancel it?
No, we can't. Of course not.
Then what do we do?
[Gyeong-min] Five seconds to air!
[in English] Three, two, one.
STARTING NOW
[in Korean] What the…
[whispers] Say hello.
[chuckles]
Hello.
I'm Lee Go-eun
from Natural BeBe's Mother TF Team.
I'm Go Da-rim.
Today, we'll be holding a mega sale event
for Angel Hug diapers.
For the giveaway prize,
we've prepared your favorite, BeBeZza,
so please stay tuned.
BEBEZZA AS A GIVEAWAY PRIZE?
First, can you tell us
what features Angel Hug offers?
Well…
There's a reason why our Angel Hug
is the most loved diaper
by moms and babies.
You know what it is, right?
That's correct.
Cozy and comfortable
as a hug from an angel.
People praise it
for living up to its name.
And…
it's all thanks to its ice-cooling system.
Thirty thousand double air holes
-quickly absorb the babies' pee and poop…
-Okay.
Let's take a few questions.
Questions…
LET'S ANSWER SOME QUESTIONS.
HOW DO WE CHOOSE THE RIGHT SIZE?
Wow, look at all those comments.
We'll now answer a few questions.
"How do we choose the right size?"
That's a question from BonnieNewbieMom.
Yes, our Angel Hug…
We'll now take one last question.
"Is there something that sets
Angel Hug apart from other products?"
Go-eun, what do you think?
I'm not sure.
Pardon?
I've only ever used Angel Hug,
so I can't make a comparison.
I believe she's saying that's
how much trust she has in Angel Hug.
It is the number one diaper brand
in the market, after all.
No.
I didn't have any other choice
but Angel Hug.
I gave birth to my daughter
right after I graduated from high school.
My husband worked as a deliveryman
to earn money for diapers,
but he passed away in a car accident.
I had a baby to raise, but no money.
I was completely lost.
That's when I received
a year's supply of Angel Hug diapers,
donated by Natural BeBe.
I remember crying all night
while holding onto that box.
As a result,
I was able to raise my daughter well
without a single diaper rash.
I think that's all I have to share
at this moment.
[chuckles nervously]
I shouldn't have shared that.
I'm sorry.
No, Go-eun.
Don't apologize for that.
You should be proud and commended for it.
Look.
Everyone is cheering you on
in the comments.
"It must have been so tough for you
at such a young age."
"You're an amazing mother."
"Keep going."
"I'll pray for your baby
to grow up healthy."
[melancholic music playing]
Thank you. [sobs]
-Sorry. Excuse me.
-Okay.
[Go-eun sniffles]
Hey.
[sniffles]
[English] Okay.
[in Korean] Okay what?
[Da-rim] It seems Go-eun
has been moved by your comments.
Thank you so much
for your kind words of support.
While we wait for her…
DIAPER DEMONSTRATION
Go-eun was supposed to do
the diaper demonstration.
If you could just wait for a moment…
Oh, no. What do I do now?
I've never changed a diaper before.
Okay.
I'll now proceed
with the diaper demonstration.
[upbeat music playing]
Stay calm.
I've already memorized the product manual.
Waste absorbency is the key feature
of this season's Angel Hug.
Now, should we test it out?
[exclaims, laughs]
I'm going to pour this whole thing.
Here we go.
[gasps] My goodness.
There we go.
Is this right?
This should be right.
There we go. I did it!
Take a look.
No matter how active your baby may be,
-it will never leak…
-[Ji-hyeok exclaims]
THAT'S A BIT SHOCKING
ON-AIR ACCIDENT LOL
WHY IS IT LEAKING?
MAYBE YOU PUT IT ON WRONG?
Oh no.
[gasps]
Oh, no! Oh, no!
What do we do?
Are you satisfied?
[exclaims, laughs]
[clears throat]
[exclaims] You've got to be kidding me.
Ms. Go! Are you really a mom?
Look at the mess you made
because you couldn't change a mere diaper!
I'm sorry.
I got nervous in front of the camera.
Our company's credibility
has hit rock bottom because of you!
What are you going to do now?
How will you take responsibility?
[Ji-hyeok] That's enough, Mr. Ma.
What?
It was her first broadcast,
so she got nervous and made a mistake.
Weren't you the one
who forced us to take on this broadcast
in the first place anyway?
Also,
Ms. Go is a member of my team.
If anyone is going to scold her
and take responsibility for her,
it'll be me.
Then are you planning
to write up an incident report as well?
The director is asking for one.
All right. I'll write it.
[Mr. Ma] Sure, go ahead then.
[grunts]
[sighs] I thought I studied enough,
but reality is sure different.
I'll just have to keep practicing.
Hey, Da-rim.
You should maintain a work-life balance.
You shouldn't work this late
and make people wait.
[gasps, exclaims]
Let go of me, or I'll report you!
Damn it. You already did.
And it put me in a real tight spot.
-You're coming with us.
-Because it was unlawful debt collection!
Just obey the law!
[sighs]
[Da-rim shouts in distance]
-[debt collector] Get her in the car.
-[Da-rim] Help! [screams]
[debt collector]
Jeez. Why are you so strong?
You're the one who scammed us.
Hey, get her in.
[Da-rim] Help! No!
[continues screaming]
-Help me!
-Hey!
Lift her legs!
Lift her legs!
The men who chased me yesterday
are loan sharks.
The truth is, my younger sister
borrowed money from everywhere
before going into hiding.
[debt collector] Let's get going.
Goddamn it!
-[screams, pants]
-Just stay still!
Why are you so damn strong?
Hey!
What are you doing?
-No!
-Hey!
Do you want me to
toss you out of a moving car?
[suspenseful music playing]
[tires squeal]
[horn honks]
[music continues]
-[tires squeal]
-[truck horn honks]
[panting]
[cars honking]
I'll pay you back.
I can just pay you back.
One million won per month.
I'll be able to pay it off in 30 months.
Come on now.
-That doesn't add up.
-What do you mean?
You forgot the interest.
We're loan sharks.
-Let me see that.
-Yes, sir.
[panting]
See? 30 months is 270 million won
in interest alone.
-[gasps]
-Can you pay that?
How does 30 million won
become 300 million won?
That's why
we should settle this quickly and simply
before you accrue more interest.
I honestly don't have anything.
Don't be silly.
Think carefully.
You have a lot to offer in your body.
Those eyes,
heart,
liver, pancreas,
-lungs, bone marrow…
-[gasps]
…and more.
No.
Which should we sell first?
[door breaks]
[intense music playing]
Let me buy them off you.
How much do you want?
[Western-style music playing]
Do you take credit?
[rock music plays]
DYNAMITE KISS
[music continues]
Did you tell your husband?
Is he always so indifferent?
My husband isn't like that.
You should know what to defend
and what not to.
Until you pay off this debt,
you're mine, Ms. Go Da-rim.
You're going to confirm
and sign off on every little thing?
A competitive pitch?
-Against the marketing team, at that?
-Good luck.
You've never raised a kid, have you?
[Da-rim] Oh, no. Have I been exposed?
What? Where are you going to work?
If everyone knows I'm your husband,
it'll clear up all the doubts.
-If it makes you uncomfortable…
-If anyone is uncomfortable, it'd be you.
I look forward to working with you.
I'm Kim Seon-u.
