DEPICTED IN THIS DRAMA
ARE ENTIRELY FICTIONAL
Will you be okay?
I can sleep at my place now.
Please talk to Byeol for me.
Go inside.
Drive safely.
I'll go after you leave.
I'll call you when I get home.
FINAL EPISODE
Everyone at Peoplez.
Please come to the office
tomorrow by 10 a.m.
Do you want to go to the sea?
What were you thinking about?
Ever since I met you,
so many things have changed.
I always thought that I was responsible
for everything.
Helping Peoplez grow
and protecting it.
I thought that I was alone in it.
After seeing the employees
at the bookstore,
I realized that I was wrong.
Chairman Woo is right.
Even if I fight and keep my position,
things won't go back
to being normal at Peoplez.
The employees shouldn't
have to deal with that.
I told you.
Thanks to you,
I realize what's truly important.
My employees,
I want to protect them.
You're amazing.
I believe in your decision.
Thank you.
Then there's only one thing
I have to do.
Always stay by your side.
I called you all today
for an announcement.
Starting today,
I'll no longer be the CEO at Peoplez.
What?
Our company will be acquired
by Career Way.
All of you will be transferred.
You can keep coming to work like always.
I apologize for not working with you
until the end.
Instead of me,
it will be up to you
to protect Peoplez.
Wh… What?
What is she talking about?
What happened?
I don't understand what's going on.
- What you just said--
- Was it Chairman Woo?
Did my father do this?
It was my decision.
Both of you will also be transferred.
Give it some thought.
Kang Ji-yun, why you…
Making an announcement
doesn't make it final.
How could you make such a decision
without discussing it with us?
I can't agree with this.
I'll do anything to stop it,
so think it over.
Wait, Mr. Woo.
You knew, didn't you?
But you didn't stop her?
Mr. Wang, where's my father?
Mr. Yu,
is this really
the decision that's been made?
Eun-ho, this is wrong.
We got all the evidence.
You know why we worked so hard.
Is this really Ms. Kang's decision?
Do you agree with it?
You all know very well.
Once a search firm loses its credibility,
it's very difficult for the firm
to get back on its feet.
The case might not even be resolved.
Even if it does,
Peoplez may no longer have clients.
But…
Still…
Ms. Kang thinks
that this is the best choice
in order to protect you.
Who is he? Why is he in my office?
- Send him out.
- Chairman Woo.
I lost.
I'll join your company.
If you tell me to come back home,
I will.
Now that the company is going under,
you finally see reality, don't you?
In return, don't take Peoplez away
from Kang Ji-yun.
You want to sell yourself
to protect Peoplez?
Do you think you're worth that much?
Of course not.
I wouldn't.
If Sung-hoon couldn't satisfy you,
who would?
I mean,
is it possible for anyone
to meet your expectations?
Sung-hoon worked so hard.
Just to be accepted by you,
he worked so hard until the end…
I can't be like Sung-hoon.
But
I'll try.
If that's what you want,
I will do it.
So please,
leave Kang Ji-yun alone.
I beg you.
WOO JEONG-HOON
What are you still doing here?
After leaving, you didn't answer
your phone all day long.
I'm sorry. I wasn't aware of it.
Also, the company will be fine. So…
The only solution you came up with
is working for Chairman Woo?
What else can I do?
This is the only weapon I have.
- Mr. Woo--
- I was going to surrender anyway.
I realized that I can't survive
without Dad.
I'm tired of sleeping away from home.
If I'm going to surrender anyway,
I'd better get something out of it.
I want to be helpful in your life
at least once.
It's my decision.
If I wanted to fight,
no matter what the chairman did,
I would've persisted. You know that.
Jeong-hoon.
I understand you.
I really do,
but I'm fine.
So don't do this for me.
- Ji-yun--
- If you want to be considerate,
until you find your own answer,
don't give up the fight.
No matter the reason.
The contract for share transfer
has been signed.
Please sign the company
acquisition agreement.
KIM HYE-JIN
ACQUISITION AGREEMEN
KANG JI-YUN
The company acquisition contract
has been finalized.
Congratulations, Ms. Kim.
You got everything you wanted.
It's all thanks to you. Thank you.
Thanks to you, without incurring losses,
I disposed of these bothersome shares.
This is what you call a win-win situation.
Good job, Ms. Kang.
Thank you for everything.
How do you feel now that
I took away your company?
Please take good care of my employees.
Please transfer them as promised.
That's not for you to worry about.
Compared to a company
involved in an investment fraud,
the number one company
in the field is 100 times better.
Your employees will also be happy
about the acquisition.
Let's go.
Your judgment isn't as clear as I thought.
I didn't think you'd decide
to sink with her.
Kang Ji-yun.
Watch carefully
how fast Peoplez and your name disappear.
Five years of your life
will collapse in vain.
Is one week enough?
Your CEO office,
empty it completely.
Leave no trace of yourself.
Daddy Yu, are you okay?
Of course. Don't worry.
Let me know if you need any help.
You're helping me enough already.
Thank you.
Dad, let's go.
Let's go.
Bye, Byeol.
- Bye.
- See you.
See you.
Byeol.
I heard that you had
a watermelon party at school.
- Was it fun?
- Yes.
- Dad.
- Yes?
What is it?
Dad, stay strong.
Did my encouragement get through?
Yes.
Give Sis a hug for me just like that.
Okay, I will.
I'm so moved
that I feel absolutely charged!
AGENDA
Yes, we're still discussing it.
- Are you still considering it?
- Is that what you're looking for?
- I see what you mean.
- Yes.
You worked so hard for five years.
Let's go now.
We should take that off first.
Let's come up with a new name.
Yes, ma'am.
RESIGNATION LETTER
She probably saw the resignation letters
by now, right?
Did we do the right thing?
Kyung-hwa, you made your decision,
don't regret it.
Stop shaking your leg.
Are we going to be okay?
There are so many search firms out there.
Let's relax before thinking about it.
We won't still be here in a month.
We can't stay like this.
I thought I saw it somewhere.
Hey, Mr. Lee.
- The table of organization…
- We can find it.
Goodness.
I'm sure it's somewhere.
- Let's see.
- It says here…
Ms. Kim, many aren't happy
about the acquisition.
Once they find out that over 90 percent
of the employees resigned,
things could get messy.
We need to hurry and come up with a plan.
Are you CEO Kim Hye-jin?
Yes. Who are you?
We're the police.
CEO Park Young-min of Ikonic
turned himself in.
During his testimony, your name came up.
You need to come with us.
CEO Park Young-min?
Wasn't that the fraud case?
What? What's going on here?
As CEO Park Young-min turned himself in,
Ikonic Biotechnology's investment fraud
turned over a new leaf.
As professional investors,
they approached me first.
Other than Park Young-min,
other people had also been involved.
Didn't you collude with him
to approach Park Young-min?
Kim, CEO of a famous search firm.
I said no.
Other than Park Young-min's testimony,
do you have proof?
Professional Investor Han is suspected
to be behind it. He's being investigated.
- Have you changed your legal name?
- Yes.
Is that a problem?
You've been hiding
after changing your name.
Han's previous criminal records
were found.
Han and Kim are suspected of colluding
in another investment fraud
five years ago, which is causing a shock.
The company's employee who was involved
in the investment fraud five years ago,
was it Kim Hye-jin?
Yes, that's correct.
Thank you for your cooperation.
The result will be announced soon.
Thank you for your work.
THE CITIZENS' POLICE
WHO ARE RESPECTED AND LOVED
Kang Ji-yun!
Was it you?
I don't know what kind
of trick you pulled,
but this won't destroy me.
You think you've won?
Are you having fun?
No.
I pity you.
You're still lost in resentment.
I no longer live with hatred.
Pay for your sin,
and beg for forgiveness from CEO Lee
for the rest of your life.
Kang Ji-yun!
This is all because of you.
Kang Ji-yun!
If you hadn't been in my life…
Yong-hoon passed away because of you!
Hey! You…
DODAM BOOK STORE
Goodness.
The new CEO at Career Way took up office.
I wonder how many years
Kim Hye-jin will get?
Rot in prison for a long time.
What's going to happen to Peoplez?
Can't Ji-yun become the CEO again?
At no cost? No way.
Kim Hye-jin made a huge mess
for the acquisition,
so Career Way incurred a big loss.
- You need money for the acquisition.
- How about getting an investment?
She doesn't want to be swayed
by investors anymore.
What's Ji-yun planning to do now?
I don't know, which is driving me nuts.
Goodness. Has Eun-ho told you anything?
No.
What if you become
unemployed at this rate?
Should I look for another job?
That girl.
What could possibly be on her mind?
How much longer will you sleep?
It's time to get up.
Why are you here so early?
Early?
- It's past 10 a.m.
- Let me sleep a little longer.
I have nothing to do anyway.
Wow.
It looks like being unemployed suits you.
I had no idea not working felt so good.
It's been years
since the last time I slept in.
Are you going to sleep all day?
No, I'm going to play with Eun-ho.
Doing what?
Come here for a second.
This is great.
Let me sleep a little longer like this.
Let me sleep a little more.
Go ahead and sleep.
Come on, Yu Eun-ho.
What, Kang Ji-yun?
Kang Ji-yun?
Yes, you aren't a CEO anymore.
- But still…
- Ji-yun.
Ji-yun…
- Come on.
- Goodness.
I'll let it go since you're handsome.
I'll let it go since you're pretty.
The sun's in my eyes.
- I'll finish cleaning then.
- Okay.
Next, please.
Is this restaurant that amazing?
It's my favorite restaurant.
Give it a try. You'll find out.
That, I will.
What a good meal.
I give you credit for it.
Of course.
Rain? Let's run.
Let's get under here.
- Are you okay?
- Yes.
I haven't seen this type of rain
in a long time.
Do you like it when it rains?
Yes, it's nice to listen to the rain.
What kind of weather do you like?
I've never really thought about it.
What have I been doing all my life?
We can find things out together
from now on.
I'd love to.
It's refreshing.
I can't believe we're drinking
when it's still daytime.
I didn't expect to do this in my life.
You've never drank during the day?
Is it your first time?
Not even in college?
No, I haven't.
You had no dreams.
You need someone together
to have dreams with.
Booze in the day tastes sweet.
It's tasty.
Whenever I'm with you, I become impulsive.
Usually, I get nervous without plans.
- Isn't it fun?
- I'm in a bind.
Bottoms up. I'm getting drunk today.
It's so pretty.
TODAY'S FOUR SHOTS
I've never done it before.
- I haven't done it either.
- Really?
I'll be taller than Eun-ho.
LATE WOO SUNG-HOON
Have you been coming here?
Sung-hoon would be happy.
I found them while cleaning up
the room yesterday.
The photos have always been
in Sung-hoon's study,
but I could never find them.
Maybe it led me to meet you here.
Sung-hoon said that he had
vivid memories of that day.
I brought these photos for Sung-hoon,
but they must have been for you.
When Sung-hoon passed away,
I had many regrets.
When he was suffering,
I should've listened more.
I should've consoled him more.
But I couldn't do that.
I hated you so much
that I hated Sung-hoon as well.
I know that you resent me.
I won't ask you to stop hating me,
but don't repeat the same mistake
with Jeong-hoon.
Jeong-hoon has never hated you.
So please,
forgive yourself.
SPEECH ON EMPLOYMEN
PERSONALITY AND EMPLOYMEN
NOW HIRING
I can't find anything.
Wow, you're working hard.
Hey. Why do you look so pretty today?
I dressed up a little.
Do I look okay?
Did you dress up to meet me?
No, I had a meeting
with my publisher today.
A meeting with your publisher?
Ta-da!
My new book's finally out.
What? That's amazing.
On Monday Morning.
It already looks amazing.
At first glance,
it's bound to be a bestseller.
Congratulations, Ms. Jung.
This is great.
Now, I can live off you.
Okay, let's do that.
I'm going to be a best-selling author.
How could you agree so easily?
"What are you saying?
Why would I support you?"
That should be your response.
Ms. Jung,
you're getting yourself in trouble.
You just told me to support you.
You don't say that just to anyone, right?
- I'm not sure.
- What?
Hold that thought.
- Hello?
- Woo Jeong-hoon, where are you?
I didn't forget
about working part-time today.
I'll be there on time.
Okay, okay, okay.
I shouldn't talk back as a part-timer.
Okay.
I shouldn't have agreed to work part-time.
Why?
Seong-kyung harasses me too much.
Okay, let's get going.
We only have three hours of free time.
Okay.
I looked up where we're going today.
Just trust me and follow me.
Wow. Okay.
- What?
- What?
We're wearing the same shoes.
What on earth?
- Goodness.
- How could you?
Don't make it so obvious.
- But…
- My goodness!
Oh, my.
Jeong-hoon.
I heard that it's scarier
than you'd think.
Will you be okay?
- Me?
- Yes.
- Are you really asking me?
- Yes.
To be honest, I don't believe in ghosts.
I watch horror movies before going to bed.
If you're very scared,
don't worry and just follow me.
I'll protect you.
Okay.
Can I count on you?
Of course.
It's made by people.
It can't be that scary.
I think it's moving.
Where are we going?
My goodness!
Oh, my.
A foot. It was just a foot.
That startled me.
Shall I take the lead?
- No, I'll take the lead. Stay behind me.
- Okay.
It's dangerous.
Jeong-hoon?
Yes?
Oh, I mean,
there was something on your clothes.
I took it off for you.
- I see.
- I took it off.
- Was something on my clothes?
- Yes.
- I gave it some thought.
- Yes?
I think there's nothing
protecting our backs.
- Right.
- If you can lead the way,
I'll cover our backs.
- Me?
- Yes.
You lead the way.
It's more dangerous behind us.
- Me first?
- Yes.
Go ahead.
- I'll look behind us.
- Okay.
- Jeong-hoon.
- Yes?
Are you doing okay?
Yes, I'm fine.
I'm keeping an eye on what's behind us…
- Okay.
- …so don't worry.
Please leave. Leave.
Please.
Darn it.
- I'm sorry.
- I…
I'm sorry.
- I was startled.
- I know.
Shall we continue?
- Shall we?
- Yes.
Oh, goodness.
This is nothing.
Nothing to it.
I'm getting hungry.
Me too. How about some tteokbokki?
Tteokbokki sounds good.
Hello. Hi.
Hello.
You came together.
Did you go somewhere together?
Yes, with Ms. Jung…
Around the corner.
We just met around the corner.
By chance, right?
Yes, just around the corner by chance.
You should go in.
The director is waiting for you.
Then I'll get going.
Come to our house again.
I'll make you something good.
Ma'am, I'd be so grateful.
I still can't forget that deliciousness.
Please invite me.
- Sure.
- I'll be going.
Bye.
Hey, I'm for him. I like him.
Mom, it's not… It's not what you think.
Who are you kidding?
You tried on everything
you had in your room.
That's because I had a meeting
with the publisher.
Let's go, Byeol.
Seo-jun, did you notice
that her ears turned red?
Yes, she's embarrassed.
- Grandma.
- Yes?
Should we pretend not to know?
Goodness. All right then.
Seo-jun, you're better than me.
This is so tiring.
Where did she go after making me clean?
Why isn't she back yet?
Goodness.
HANEUL KINDERGARTEN
CHAIRMAN
Hello?
I unblocked your credit card.
- What?
- Stop sleeping outside and come home.
Father, are you unwell?
Crazy fool.
Make time for a meal together.
Darn it.
What? What did he just say?
What are you doing?
Why aren't you cleaning?
I mean…
Father told me to come back home.
He even unblocked my credit card.
What does that mean?
It looks like he wants to make up.
Make up?
Make up, my foot.
You still don't know my father.
It's you
who doesn't know him.
I'm off.
Why aren't you eating?
I can't eat without knowing your motive.
What do you want? Tell me now.
Just father and son just having a meal.
Do I need a motive?
What do you plan to do?
I'm still searching.
Being like this at my age,
I find myself quite pathetic.
I don't know
what it means to live well.
It's not something
you can figure out fast.
So how are you these days?
Are you all right?
What?
Are you all right?
Well, I guess so.
I'm working part-time.
Since when were you so interested in me?
I've never asked your brother
if he was all right.
I thought that he could handle it.
As his father,
I wasn't aware of it.
Live your life the way you want.
I don't want to lose you too.
Why don't we eat together sometimes?
Wow, Yu Eun-ho.
What?
You look much better. Why is that?
Why do you look better?
Is looking better a problem?
Thanks for the drink.
I heard that your company went under.
I thought you'd be idling about.
I wanted to appear as your savior.
What is it?
What could possibly make you my savior?
Director Lee told me to bring you back.
General Manager Song ended up
getting kicked out.
He wasn't competent.
He lasted a while,
just using his connections.
As soon as General Manager Song got fired,
he was looking for you.
The ace at Hansu Electronics' HR.
You're coming, right?
You'll be returning, right?
No, I'm not going.
But why? Why?
You got a job somewhere else?
No, not yet.
There's a place I need to be.
- Hello?
- Ji-yun, what are you doing?
The weather is nice.
How about going on a date?
I can't today.
They're already here.
- I'm busy right now. I've got to go.
- Ji-yun--
What's this?
I'm going to start working again.
This is my office.
I'm going to start again
from the beginning.
Without anyone's help.
Without being swayed by anyone.
On my own.
Then this must be my seat.
You got a nice, big table.
No, there's no place for you.
- What?
- Yu Eun-ho, you're fired.
You were supposed to work
only for six months.
Do you mean that? What do you mean?
The Selim Group is looking
for a team leader for human resources.
And I got commissioned.
HIRING HR TEAM LEADER
AT SELIM GROUP
Hello, Ms. Park.
It's been a while. How are you?
Ms. Kang, are you working again?
I have a project starting next month.
This is all thanks to you.
I'd like you to be in charge
of the hiring.
Is it possible?
Yes.
It's possible.
Someone with a good understanding
of human resources,
leadership, and communication skills.
No matter where I looked,
I couldn't find anyone as good as you.
- Ji-yun--
- Eun-ho.
You've given me so much up until now.
So now, I'd like you
to make a decision only for yourself.
Please be the first candidate
at my new company.
HR TEAM MANAGER
YU EUN-HO
HIRING HR TEAM LEADER
AT SELIM GROUP
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR PARK SO-JUNG
AT SELIM GROUP
Hello, Ms. Park.
Yes, thank you.
Okay.
Wow, what's all this?
We have good news for your dad.
Let's throw a surprise party for him.
Ji-yun?
Ji-yun?
WE SUPPOR
YU EUN-HO'S NEW BEGINNING
DAD, CONGRATULATIONS
ON GETTING ANOTHER JOB
Dad, congratulations.
Eun-ho, congratulations.
Did I get the job?
I told you that there wasn't anyone
as good as you.
Byeol.
Come on.
Ta-da.
- Dad, hurry and blow out the candle.
- Blow at the count of three.
- One, two, three.
- One, two, three.
Congratulations.
Byeol, what did I tell you?
Happiness is
something you share!
Don't get caught.
Byeol, turn around.
Run away.
You can't run away from me.
Run away, Byeol.
It was a success. Right, Byeol?
I'm so happy.
That looks pretty.
- We're happy.
- There.
That was fun. One more time.
One more time.
Gosh, who's this?
- Who's this?
- Goodness.
- Hello.
- Hello.
- Ms. Kang.
- What a nice house.
- Congratulations on opening your company.
- Thank you.
- Please come in.
- Okay.
- What a lovely apartment.
- It's nice.
- Hello.
- Hello!
Eun-ho.
Congratulations on getting a new job.
- Byeol is…
- How cute.
Don't get your hopes up. It's nothing big.
- Thank you.
- It looks expensive.
You prepared so much food.
You didn't have to do anything. Thank you.
That isn't a way to serve guests.
- Has everyone been doing well?
- Yes, sure.
I've been well.
You don't have any other employees?
- Did the two of you start the company?
- Yes.
We did.
Here I am being treated like dirt,
working by Ji-yun's side again.
I chose an arduous path.
- Aren't you sad for me?
- What?
You invited yourself in.
Should I leave?
You may join freely,
but you can't leave freely.
- Don't you dare!
- You two haven't changed at all.
Being together like this,
I feel like we're back at Peoplez.
This is great.
I'm not saying this to please you.
When we were working together,
those were the best times.
What's wrong?
Mr. Kim, you haven't changed at all.
Did I say something wrong?
Why would you bring up Peoplez?
That's fine. I also thought
about you a lot.
If you're okay with it,
would you like to work with me again?
I'd like to start anew.
And I need you.
Ms. Kang?
Thank you, Mr. Yu.
It's a proposal for a new job.
- She prepared it.
- Really?
Think about it carefully,
and let me know your decision.
Okay, I'll think carefully about it.
You'll come? You wouldn't leave me
suffering Ji-yun alone, would you?
If Ms. Kang needs me,
I'll definitely join!
Be quiet. I mean,
no need to be hasty.
We should read her proposal first.
- Aren't you going to join?
- I mean…
Ms. Kang?
May I ask for one more condition?
Would that be possible?
Sure, let me know
if there's something you want.
Every month,
two company dinners guaranteed.
Come on, Mr. Kim.
We should take this seriously!
Listen, this is very important to me.
Three times.
If there are two every month, I won't go.
- Let's do it once a month.
- Once?
Hello, everyone. Ciao, hi, aloha!
Ms. Kang, congrats on your new company!
I wanted to get you a bouquet,
but there were only vases.
I heard that you joined
Chairman Woo's company.
When you hire employees,
please use our service often
as our client.
Yes, I will.
How's work?
I'm doing it my own way.
I'm different from Sung-hoon.
Also, Mr. Yu. Congratulations
on getting a new job.
Congratulations to you too.
You're the same.
Be good.
Your face hasn't changed, either.
What's this?
Everyone,
don't get carried away by the mood
and agree to join.
Read the contract thoroughly.
When will we ever get to play
hard to get with Kang Ji-yun?
What?
Exactly. That's what I wanted to say.
Ms. Kang, can I ask for something?
Confiscate Mr. Kim's notebook.
Sis, this is for you.
Byeol, what's this?
I promised to name your company.
You're right.
"We"?
Yes.
Since it's us, We.
Since it's us?
We.
We?
Wait, Byeol.
What do you think?
We Company.
It sounds catchy.
It's nice.
Thank you, Byeol.
Did the meeting go well today?
You look very happy.
I have good news.
The reception of my picture book
was positive.
- It's likely to be printed again.
- Seriously?
Yes, I knew you'd make it.
Usually, I don't get ahead of myself,
but I'm excited about it this time.
It's only on the second edition,
but maybe it'll become a bestseller.
Only the second edition?
No one knows the future.
- Is that so?
- Of course not.
I PRAY FOR YOUR SUCCESS
You beautiful couple over there
who's curious about the future.
Us?
You wanted to know the future.
Jeong-hoon, let's just go.
Should we?
That's strange.
Why do I see a young boy
between the young couple?
FORTUNE-TELLING, TAROT CARDS
You're amazing.
All right.
Question?
Ms. Jung's book was published recently.
How many copies will it sell?
No, different question.
I'll be signing another contract.
Nothing like that.
Ask me something you really want to know.
Like what?
If things will go well between you.
Isn't that what you want to know?
After this fling, your time will be up.
- A fling? No way.
- A fling?
We're not having a fling.
Not at all.
Then what's your relationship?
Siblings? Friends?
Or a love affair?
A love affair? No way.
- A love affair?
- Don't say that.
- Of course not.
- That's ridiculous.
I need to know your relationship
before I can tell you anything.
Do you have to know
what kind of relationship we have…
Well…
What kind of relationship do we have?
Us?
We're just people
who meet occasionally and say hello?
Oh, Father.
You heard her.
We just come and go
and say hello.
Is that really our relationship?
We often drink together and talk a lot.
Last time, we went on a date…
Gosh, I can't believe this.
Instead, let's have
a different relationship.
Let's be interested in each other.
Starting from today.
You came to see a fortune teller,
but he's confessing his love instead.
- How much--
- Take her hand and get lost.
Thank you.
Goodbye.
Why are you holding my hand
all of a sudden?
I never had so many people
in my house at once.
I'm tired.
Maybe we should've taken tomorrow off.
Mr. Yu.
I'm CEO Kang Ji-yun at We Company.
Please send me many hiring requests.
Are you promoting already?
I'll be hiring more personnel.
I'm glad to hear that.
I can leave without worrying.
It's all thanks to you.
Yu Eun-ho, you were my best secretary.
Kang Ji-yun, you were my best CEO.
Good morning.
Ms. Kang.
Please take good care of yourself.
You did an excellent job.
I get more scared as I grow older.
I feel like everything would end
at the slightest fall.
What's wrong with falling?
You can get back up.
I'll hold you.
All right, smile.
One, two, three.
You don't have to be perfect.
It's okay to look shabby.
However you are…
I'll stay by your side.
I will never
let go of this hand.
So, you don't let go either.
Wherever you are,
I'll never let go of your hand.
I love you.
I love you, too.
Are you awake?
How long have you been staring at me?
Oh, no.
I probably look swollen and ugly
since I just woke up.
Yes, that's true.
What?
Don't look.
I'm going to look.
Good morning.
Good morning.
1 YEAR LATER
Byeol, let's eat.
YU BYEOL
BYEOL, CONGRATULATIONS
ON ENTERING ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
Dad, let's go.
What? You got ready faster than me?
Yes.
Let's go.
Go on.
- Good morning!
- Good morning.
Have a good day. Bye!
SELIM GROUP
JI-YUN
Good morning.
MY PERFECT SECRETARY
Good morning.
Can I get the last month's sales analysis…
Kwang-hee, you're an expert at this.
What do you think?
Instead of established brand designers,
streetwear brands would be more suitable.
I have a few brands in mind.
I can contact them right away.
- Could you?
- Yes.
Good morning, everyone.
- Hello.
- Hello, Ms. Kang.
Hello.
Hello, this is We Company.
Yes.
Not even one?
Okay, I understand.
What's the matter?
They want different candidates.
They couldn't find a suitable candidate
on our list.
- Is it them again?
- Yes.
I think you should discuss it with them
in person.
Okay, I'll meet with them.
You aren't happy with any
of the candidates that we recommended?
No.
We said that we're looking for people
specializing in this line of work.
Compared to their qualifications,
your candidates lack work experience.
We also told you
that the job scope was too narrow
in your job description.
For the position, there's a limit
to finding candidates
in the same field
with years of work experience.
Are you suggesting
we expand to other fields?
If you'll allow me,
I'll recommend candidates
with experience in various fields.
It could be a chance to provide
a new set of eyes to your company.
Sounds good. Please proceed.
Okay. I'll contact you again
once I make a new candidate list.
One moment, please.
Could you please check this as well?

FOR PROSPECTIVE CANDIDATES
See you in a bit.
JAEMIN SHIN PIANO RECITAL
ON MONDAY MORNING
CHAT WITH JUNG SU-HYEON
With your picture book
published last year,
you became a respectable writer
of a steady seller.
How do you feel?
I still can't believe it.
Could you tell us about the new book
that you're working on?
Please read it to find out.
It's coming out very soon.
You didn't fall for it.
Your family and friends must be
happy for you.
Who was the most excited about the news?
I'm not sure.
It's very hard to pick just one person.
Right?
You have so many fans.
Picking only one must be hard.
- Let's get off work, everyone.
- Okay.
Well done today.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
You got a date?
See you tomorrow.
Mr. Kim, how about a drink
with me tonight?
Who goes home late
after drinking these days?
I'm getting off work.
- See you.
- Bye.
- Bye.
- Bye.
How about you, Gyu-rim?
Just make up with Kyung-hwa already.
Make up for what? You've misunderstood.
I'm getting off work first!
That's enough.
See you tomorrow.
Ms. Seo, what are you doing tonight?
No, not with Ms. Seo.
- Please sit over there.
- Okay.
So you'll be joining us, right?
Why don't you call him?
- Shall I? Give it to me.
- No.
I won't forgive him so easily this time.
You two are such a handful
- Ma'am, can we get spicy hagfish?
- Hagfish?
- Can we also get spicy chicken feet?
- Okay.
Kyung-hwa doesn't like hagfish.
She likes chicken feet.
She's been working with you for years.
How could you not know that yet?
Seriously?
I… I'm sorry.
Please don't be angry at me.
It wasn't easy for me to come here.
You can't eat spicy food.
Order something that isn't spicy.
No, honey. You like spicy food. I'm okay.
Then order steamed eggs.
You'll ruin your stomach.
Instead of steamed eggs,
can I take a crack at you?
Crack you.
Gosh, come on! I can't bear watching you.
If you're going to make up so soon,
why did you get angry?
Why do you even fight?
I'm sick of this. It's so annoying.
How many times do I have to see this?
Hello, this is Na Gyu-rim.
Right now?
No, it's okay.
I'll go and send it to you now.
Isn't it better that I'm not here?
Are you returning to the office?
Mr. Oh will regret it
if he misses this chance.
I should help him make up his mind.
The company dinner is over.
Gyu-rim is becoming
more and more like Ms. Kang.
- Dad!
- Hey, who's this?
Why are you out here?
On our way back from grocery shopping,
I thought we'd find you here.
Really? Ye-rim,
now that you're well again,
it's great to be with the entire family.
I'm so happy.
I'm here!
You got back early today.
What is it?
Why are you so startled?
It's nothing.
- What is it?
- It's nothing.
- What is it?
- What?
What is it?
GAVE BIRTH AT AN OLD AGE
HANDBOOK TO PREGNANCY
I heard there's a lot to prepare
when giving birth at a later age.
I wanted to look it up before telling you.
Honey.
Sorry.
I made the decision too late.
Right?
Let's
try our best.
Okay.
DODAM BOOK STORE
Hello?
Eun-ho.
Which side?
I'm almost there.
You don't see me?
Where are you?
There you are!
Yes.
Hi, hi.
