ALL PLACES, CHARACTERS, FIRMS AND EVENTS DEPICTED IN THIS SHOW ARE FICTITIOUS.

RETURN APPLICATION

Everything seems to be in order.

I'll process this.

-Thank you. -By the way,

why did you choose to return?

The branch manager was sad to see you go.

Things are going smoothly now,

but you're leaving after laying the groundwork.

I think I've gained enough experience.

Actually,

I miss home.

I'll leave you to it. Thank you.

Okay.

Alright, I'll be there soon.

I think it's completely useless.

You're back?

EPISODE 15

Yes.

Reading your inbox?

Yes.

So many people have relationship issues.

It takes a long time to read these through.

It's because you're a hot commodity.

That I am.

If you were there two more years as planned,

I would've gotten my Gold Button.

You came back too early.

Fine, it's my fault.

At least you're quick to acknowledge it.

Did you have dinner? I haven't.

Let's eat together. Let me get changed.

Okay.

WINTER, TWO YEARS AGO

Asst. Manager Yoon Song-ah.

Yes!

Yes, ma'am?

We'll be meeting with that OEM company.

Get two tickets to London for tomorrow morning.

One is yours.

My leave starts tomorrow.

Oh, right.

What to do...

I really need you there.

I'm sorry,

but can you cancel your leave?

You know this is important.

A business trip?

Yes.

A meeting suddenly came up.

This company is playing hard-to-get.

It'll be difficult to reschedule.

It's okay. It's work anyway.

I'm sorry to make you wait.

It's okay.

I know things are hard over there.

Don't worry. Do what you need to do.

Thank you.

What?

SUMMER, ONE AND A HALF YEARS AGO

Why can't it come through?

You said there'd be no problem this time.

You know we need them.

I'm sorry.

SENIOR YOON SONG-AH

There's a customs issue with a key product.

I can't go to Korea.

I'm really sorry.

Hey.

You're awake?

It's okay.

I understand. Stop feeling so bad.

I'm really sorry.

I really want to see you.

It's fine.

Don't cry. You'll make me sad.

Hmm?

Okay.

Don't skip meals. We'll talk soon.

WINTER, A YEAR AGO

Alright, it's okay.

Don't worry. Just get your work done.

Okay.

Hey.

You're home.

Have you eaten?

You must be so exhausted.

Aren't you angry at all?

You came to see me.

We haven't seen each other in one and a half years.

And yet I made you wait.

But look at you,

how could you worry about me?

Don't you resent me?

It was because of work. I understand.

And I came because I want to see you.

I can handle waiting.

What am I?

What am I?

How can you always be patient with me like this?

How can you keep saying that it's okay?

It's not okay.

This is hard on you.

Remember what I told you before?

Whether I fall or crash,

all I want to do is to be with you.

Yes, it's hard.

I'm upset at you sometimes,

or I go crazy missing you.

But we have to endure this to be together.

At least we still get to see each other.

We've come this far.

Let's bear with it just a bit more.

Hmm?

Is it right to endure?

Senior Yoon.

This is it.

I think we should end this.

Senior Yoon.

Let's end this.

We're interviewing the members of the marketing team.

I was told to find you for the overseas team.

Please wait inside the conference room.

Okay.

I forgot you were still waiting.

You two were in the same team, right?

Yes.

Please stay here for a moment.

You're here for the interview?

Yes.

I'm returning to HQ today.

I think I'll be assigned to marketing.

But I'm not sure which team yet.

I see.

We can't avoid each other completely.

I won't make you feel uncomfortable.

I don't feel uncomfortable.

Manager Chae, we'll start with you. Let's go.

Okay.

It was only a season after we broke up.

I understood what Hyun-seung meant.

Whether you fall or crash,

whatever happens,

all you have to do is to hold on your partner.

It was wonderful just being able to love him.

I didn't know what a blessing it was back then.

I was a fool.

You just had a different idea about love.

You thought letting him go was the right thing to do.

That was what I thought then.

But now I understand.

I just want to see him.

If I could do that,

I'd be so happy.

You still have feelings for him.

You think you can handle seeing him?

I have to.

You're not going to tell him how you feel?

I was harsh when I broke things off with him.

How can I be so shameless?

I'm already being selfish by coming back to stay near him.

How dare I ask for more?

Did you get over jet lag?

Yes, I'm doing okay.

Then it's time to get back to work.

Show us what you've learned in Europe.

I heard from Director Lee.

You're open to working on any team.

Any team with a vacancy.

Okay then.

Are you okay with the KLAR Team?

We have a vacancy right now.

Well...

For your information,

I already discussed this with Manager Chae.

He said he's okay with it.

Song-ah.

I mean, Manager Yoon.

If it's too hard for you,

we'll get someone from another team.

And then you can fill in their vacancy.

So no pressure.

But I hope you'd return to our team.

Wait, no.

Think about it.

Really, no pressure.

Okay, I'll think about it.

Let me see. Ah!

What about the master bedroom wallpaper?

Should we do a different color on one wall?

That sounds nice.

Okay.

What color should it be?

White is the basic color.

How about gray?

It'll look modern.

No.

Gray's too simple.

How about a more vivid color?

That sounds nice too.

How about black?

That's fine.

Am I getting married by myself?

I wasn't going to say anything

because I didn't want to look petty.

But how can you do this to me?

I know you're busy,

but we're getting married.

How can you not be interested about our future home?

Well...

You're so good at everything.

But this will be our home.

It should reflect your taste too.

You are my taste.

So what you like is what I like.

You're all talk.

Forget it. We'll live in a cave.

Who cares about the wallpaper?

Where are you going?

Hyo-joo will be here soon.

We need to discuss the wedding photoshoot.

I'm going to throw away the wallpaper.

Hey.

Jae-woon!

Where are you going?

Your call cannot be connected.

Jae-woon is not picking up.

You should've just gone along with him.

That's exactly what I did.

He sulks a lot.

I told you to reconsider this marriage.

You could break it off.

Hyo-joo!

I guess you don't want to.

What in the world do you see in him?

He's my type.

Yikes.

I feel bad though.

You came all the way here.

Don't worry.

I'll charge it as an expense.

Okay.

Overcharge your brother.

Right,

how did the blind date go?

Was it okay?

The blind date?

It was just...

You look like you've been doing well.

I've been doing great myself too.

I can tell.

Once a jerk, always a jerk.

It was that awful?

Yes, I realized he was awful.

Call me when you two make up.

I'll see myself out.

CEO LEE JAE-SHIN

Sir.

They said they'd call at 3 p.m., right?

30 minutes have passed.

MD KIM JU-YOUNG

Hello?

Okay.

Thank you.

Are we getting a spot?

Yes!

We're finally getting an offline spot.

Congratulations, sir.

Congratulations to all of us.

But let's party later.

We have a lot to prepare.

How about a meeting first?

Welcome back, Manager Yoon.

You were just an employee three years ago,

and now you are a general manager.

I'm happy to join this team again.

I'll work extra hard.

Don't worry.

BM Kwon works us like slaves since his promotion.

There's no choice but to work hard.

Come on, Manager Kang.

How come you always say the right thing?

She's right, Song-ah.

You better stay sharp.

Okay.

You already know everyone here.

So no need to introduce yourself.

Let's have a company BBQ dinner soon

and catch up on things.

Great.

Right.

About your desk, Manager Yoon.

You can use your old one.

Okay.

Do what you need to do in the morning.

We'll have a meeting in the afternoon.

Give her a round of applause.

Welcome back!

Can I see the two of you in the meeting room later?

Okay.

Okay.

It's been a while, right?

You must be sad to see Myung-jin go.

You trained him and now he's off to basic skincare.

It's okay.

You took over the work he was doing?

Yes.

Give some of your work to Manager Yoon.

You can discuss the task distribution yourselves.

Okay.

I have another meeting to get to.

Let me know what you decide on, Manager Yoon.

Okay.

-See you later. -Alright.

Gosh!

What is it?

How did they look? Do they look okay?

Yes, they seemed okay.

Really?

I guess they handled it nicely.

They agreed to be on the same team.

I'm sure they are professional.

I'm so relieved.

I couldn't sleep last night because I was so worried.

That's overreacting.

Anyway, I'm glad we don't have to worry.

This is why you dragged me here?

Yes.

What in the world?

At least get me a cup of coffee first.

How do you want to divide the tasks?

Is there a list?

Here.

Do you want to discuss it now?

I have time.

Just check the ones you want to take.

I'll give you the documents of the related information.

Okay, that sounds good.

I'll get going first.

This is a shared kitchen used by self-employed restaurateurs.

I see.

You mean delivery-only cuisine?

That's right.

You'll use this place for the cooking class.

Have you come up with a curriculum?

Not yet.

I'm not sure what to do.

Don't worry. I can help you with that.

I have some samples.

Or I can make you a customized one too.

Thank you.

I've always wanted to do this, but I didn't know where to start.

Having you here makes things easier.

Please spread the word about me then.

Sure.

Want to see more?

Sure.

Woo-hyun.

I'm going to pick up Ha-eun.

When do you think you'll be done?

I have another meeting. I'll be home late.

Don't worry. Do your thing.

I'll go get Ha-eun.

Okay.

I'm good, aren't I?

Stay focused.

You'll cut yourself.

Okay.

Be careful.

I want a lot of this.

Why?

Because I need my protein.

Okay.

Happy?

More.

-More? -Yes.

I think this is enough protein.

No, it's not.

-It's enough. -More.

-I need more. -I think it's enough.

Then buy a lot more when it's your turn to cook again.

Huh? That much?

All done.

Thank you for the food, Daddy.

You're welcome.

How is it?

Is it good?

It's not that good.

But it's edible.

You're improving, Daddy.

I'll do better next time.

Okay.

How was school? Did you have fun?

What is it? Something happened?

You know Ye-ji in my class?

Yes.

Her parents are getting a divorce.

Really?

Yes, that's why she cried today.

She must be so sad.

Um.

So what did you tell her?

I just gave her a hug.

We can't do anything about a grown-up thing.

Say this to Ye-ji then.

Even if they get a divorce,

they will always love Ye-ji.

That will never change.

You still have some work left?

Yes.

I didn't get to greet you properly before.

I'm glad we're on the same team.

Let's get in.

Manager Yoon.

I don't know if I should say this.

But Hyun-seung took your breakup really hard.

After you two ended things,

he was in a really bad place.

He was worse than you think.

-So... -Se-rim.

I know what you're worried about.

But it won't happen. Don't worry.

I'm sorry.

See you tomorrow.

You can't change it at the last minute.

Alright then.

Let's go for the product photoshoot.

We can't do that today.

Why not?

I just got a call.

The studio is having issues with its equipment.

They said they can't fix it today.

How long will it take then?

They said it's going to take a week.

I think we need to find another studio.

Can we find one on such short notice?

Still, let's start making some calls.

Okay.

I have a photographer friend.

I'll call their studio.

Okay.

-I'll make some calls too. -Okay.

This is the studio?

Yes, my friend works at this place.

We got lucky. They're free today.

Is your friend Lee Hyo-joo?

Huh? Who is that?

You said your friend works here.

Oh, my friend is an assistant here.

She got permission from the director here.

Let's go inside.

Are you here to see me?

We have a photoshoot today.

I didn't know we scheduled it with you.

You're the urgent photoshoot?

Can we use your space?

Have a great one.

Is that the new cushion foundation?

It's not finished yet. This is just a sample for customers.

I've put a lot of work into that.

I tested it many times on my face.

I see.

So that's why it came out so nice.

Good work.

Thank you.

You know...

You can address me comfortably.

In due time.

Alright.

Manager Yoon,

we need to visit some stores.

Okay.

We're doing a survey on our base makeup line

before we release new products.

BASE MAKEUP LINE RENEWAL CUSHION FOUNDATION

All you need to do is try the sample and take the survey.

Okay.

Do you feel a cooling effect?

Please try this.

This one.

How is it?

It applies very well.

You can check it off if it brightens your complexion.

CUSHION FOUNDATION RENEWAL QUESTIONNAIRE

Here.

Thank you.

These are some samples. Please try them.

Thank you.

Good work today.

You too.

It's late enough. Want to have dinner?

No, I'll be leaving now.

Okay.

See you tomorrow.

Sure, see you tomorrow.

PARK, DEPT. STORE GANGSEO SALES TEAM

Come on in.

-Can we get more meat? -Coming right up.

Cheers!

Manager Yoon! Over here!

Sit here.

-Hello. -Look who it is!

Long time no see.

-How have you all been? -Great.

All of you did a great job today.

Let's drink first.

Alright.

Cheers!

Cheers!

-You are buying tonight, right? -Of course. This is the least I can do.

I'm going to eat a lot then.

Thank you.

Hey.

Let me pour you a glass.

Sure.

I'll pour you a glass, Manager Yoon.

But your glass is full.

Right.

Okay, I'll drink.

At the same time.

Cheers!

Thank you.

It's great to see you.

Can I join you?

It's been a long time.

-I know, right? -Here.

Cheers!

Good work today.

Really.

There's not enough alcohol.

Are you drunk?

Manager Yoon.

Hey.

It's Chae Hyun-seung.

I thought you went home.

What are you doing here?

What took you so long?

I've missed you so much.

Right,

I made you leave.

Like a fool.

Let's go.

I'll take you home.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry I still like you.

I'm really sorry.

Are you alright?

No.

Jeez.

How much did you drink?

Make sure you take some medicine before you go.

By the way,

how did I get home yesterday?

You don't remember?

Hyun-seung brought you home.

What?

Who?

Why?

My thoughts exactly.

Why did he carry you home?

I was so shocked.

Hey!

Did you drunk dial him?

Check your phone.

Darn.

Huh?

You didn't call him.

Then how?

Manager Yoon.

It's Chae Hyun-seung.

What took you so long?

I've missed you so much.

I'm sorry I still like you.

I'm really sorry.

Gosh.

Oh, my gosh!

What am I going to do?

What?

I must be crazy!

-Good morning. -Morning.

-Good morning. -Morning.

Good morning.

Good morning.

What do you think, sir?

Don't they look much better than the other ones?

What happened?

Did you ask for a reshoot?

I heard the director saw the assistant's work

and criticized her.

Then she redid the whole shoot herself.

She's a big-shot photographer.

The quality alone proves it.

The products came out really nice.

This is Lee Hyo-joo.

It's me, Lee Jae-shin.

What's up?

I saw the product photos.

Oh, those photos?

I redid them because my assistant didn't do justice.

Don't get me wrong.

You know I'm a perfectionist.

Thank you.

I want to repay this debt.

You don't have to.

But if you want, you can buy me lunch.

When's good for you?

How about today?

You must've been really thankful.

I know it's uncomfortable for you.

I picked a nice place,

but it's probably not what you're used to.

But their food is good.

Isn't this a must-eat place?

Why? Surprised that I know about it?

You think I only eat at luxury restaurants?

Are you serious?

I'm not some princess.

I'll eat kimbap if I get off work late.

I'll have fried chicken and beer with my coworkers too.

I never asked you to take me to some fancy places.

All I asked for was to be with you.

You're right.

Your food is here.

Thank you.

Enjoy your meal.

Thanks for the food.

About yesterday...

Thanks for taking care of me.

And I'm sorry.

I shouldn't have said that.

I'm not completely over you,

even though I tried to hide it.

But you don't have to worry.

I won't bother you anymore.

Alright.

You're still here?

Hey.

Who is making my brother-in-law work overtime?

This is unacceptable!

They're all gone.

How is Ji-seung?

You got in a fight again?

No.

It's just me sulking.

You have to stay longer?

Want to eat with me?

Not dinner.

How about a drink?

You said you were fine with working with her again.

So I thought you were okay.

I thought it'd be okay,

but it wasn't.

It was hard not seeing her,

and it's hard seeing her.

It's been a year, right?

A year could be long or short.

But it's not enough to get over someone.

So how do you feel?

Will you be okay working with her?

I'm not sure yet.

In that case,

give it some time.

What's important is how you feel.

Focus on that.

Okay.

-Manager Yoo. -Yes?

I'm going to drop by the Sales Team.

We'll visit some new stores,

so it's going to take a while.

Go home right away if it's too late.

Okay, I'll call you.

Thank you!

-Have mine too. -Thanks, Hyun-seung.

Ladies and gentlemen,

this is an announcement about the fire drill

to be conducted by the Safety Team.

Wow, the announcement is loud today.

I know, right?

Based on Article No. 25 regarding fire prevention,

fire fighting equipment installation and maintenance,

we will conduct a comprehensive fire drill

from 8 p.m. to midnight.

This announcement reminds me of someone I know.

Who is it?

He was with his girlfriend for six years.

They were at a concert when the fire alarm went off.

But nobody moves instantly

because it could just be a drill.

Right.

He was wondering what it was,

and they were told to evacuate.

Then there really was a fire.

Yes.

So he turned to his side to grab his girlfriend,

so that they could get out.

But she wasn't there.

She'd already run for her life?

Yes.

He looked for her,

and she was down near the entrance.

So? What happened between them?

He broke up with her that day.

She left him at a dire moment like that.

He saw her true colors.

He was going to marry her though.

Good for him.

This is why a couple has to experience a crisis.

Words are no use.

Your actions show who you are.

How could she do that after six years?

Whether she loved him or not,

she's probably a heartless person.

Let's say it happens to you.

Will you grab your husband and run?

Of course.

Wait. You're not going to?

Of course, I will.

But I know my wife won't.

She doesn't even cook for me these days.

Don't be sad.

We'll take good care of you.

This is making me sadder.

Thanks, Hyun-seung.

Let's join hands.

You're leaving now?

Yes.

Why are you here at this hour?

I left something at the office.

Bye then.

Bye.

Attention!

A fire emergency has been reported in the building.

Proceed to the nearest emergency exit.

Do not use elevators.

Walk down the stairwells to the ground floor.

Let's go!

What?

Hurry!

Manager Yoon!

Hurry up!

Senior Yoon!

What?

It's a fire drill.

What?

They're doing a system check. It's not a fire.

I'm sorry.

I didn't know about that.

I'll get going then.

I have to go up.

Sorry.

Is my life that important?

At least you're not heartless.

I'm other things, too.

Goodbye then.

How was today's meeting?

It went well.

The chef liked the curriculum I set up.

Nice.

Aren't you tired?

It's not easy dealing with people.

Sometimes there's a difficult client,

but it's mostly fun.

I'm getting more clients too.

Don't overwork yourself.

I know. I'm doing this because it's fun.

Yeon-seung,

do you want to go on a trip?

A trip?

Does Ha-eun want to go somewhere?

Not with her. Just the two of us.

The two of us?

Sure.

Let's go where you want then.

Okay.

AMICABLE DIVORCE APPLICATION FORM

I'll be by your side.

Until you can accept yourself just as you are.

Just until then.

Let's go!

Huh?

Hurry!

I'm not completely over you.

Even though I tried to hide it.

I'm other things, too.

I'm sorry I still like you.

So how do you feel?

Hold it. Sorry.

Hello.

I'm sorry.

Excuse me.

Wait!

I'm sorry.

KLAR FACTORY 1

Please make modifications to the renewed products

as we discussed earlier.

When can we get the fixed samples?

Sometime next week?

Wednesday, I think.

Okay.

It won't change much, will it?

Do we have to do another container suitability test?

There are some changes to the ingredients, so we should.

That won't affect our production timeline, will it?

It won't, as long as everything's decided this month.

We'll be sure to do that.

Okay.

You're leaving right away?

It's dinner time soon. Let's go eat.

That sounds good.

What about you?

We need to go back in.

We still have work to do.

I'm sorry.

Alright. Bye then.

Thank you.

Good work.

-See you. -Thank you.

Good work. Safe travels.

Okay.

You want me to drop you off at the office?

Yes.

Can we stop by somewhere first?

Here you go.

Thank you.

Have a good day.

Here.

Seems like you're having an upset stomach.

Thank you.

I can drive if that's okay with you.

If this is how you act,

can you still hide your feelings?

You said you won't bother me.

You're being selfish.

If you're going to act this way,

go ahead.

Try to win me over, Yoon Song-ah.

SHE WOULD NEVER KNOW

I like you.

I like you, Hyun-seung.

This is so random.

This is for you only.

-It's mine. -What is it?

Mine.

To show that I'm serious.

I know I can't always win in love even when I've given it my all.

So I'm scared.

I'm sorry I hurt you.

I love you so much.

I really missed you, too.

Don't ever go anywhere.

I am against it.

I can't live without him. I just can't.
