DOJOON: Are you coming to work or getting off?

LEE DOJOON

I'll have the usual, please.

(sighs)

Ms. Hong.

Boy, that's not right.

I don't think you should go for that combination today.

YESOOL: No.

It's necessary today.

(clears throat)

It's fine.

Five shots of espresso, please. In one cup.

-(coffee sloshes) -(gulping)

(inhales)

(exhales deeply)

Oh, shit. (groans)

The lobby on a rainy day. Isn't it so nice?

(sucks teeth)

Have you finally lost your mind due to lack of sleep?

(inhales) It's sunny. What do you mean, a rainy day?

-(Eomji groans) -It's going to rain.

What?

I saw it. The rain.

For goodness' sake. How silly.

(yawns)

Five.

(mysterious music)

What?

How did you know?

My sixth sense.

What?

(screams)

Ms. Yoon!

Oh, my goodness! You must be so embarrassed.

Get up. Hurry. What's wrong? Are you embarrassed?

Just get up. Your hair is so messy, for goodness' sake.

What should I do with you?

Goodness.

always so loud?

(doorbell dings)

YESOOL: I know.

When this door opens,

we'll make love.

(upbeat music)

I'll open this door, go in,

and kiss him.

And I know that we'll lie down on the bed

and make love.

My sixth sense.

I've foreseen it several times.

That he and I will end up like this.

That I will make love with him after all.

And after that,

I will regret it.

Even though I know it,

I'll end up doing it.

MINHU: You didn't stay up all night, did you?

You wouldn't say you worked hard on it or things like that, would you?

If this was the result of hard work,

that would make me angrier

than hearing you say you loafed the whole time and hurriedly made it

in five minutes this morning.

Do you really want to sleep on that?

Nothing in this satisfies the client's needs.

All I see is this cheesy copy. Why?

You reinterpreted the client's needs as you pleased.

It's funny.

(laughs cynically)

(sighs) And next.

TV COMMERCIAL

-Our AD. -(groans)

You satisfied your selfish needs and greed

by overspending our budget

on this cheap script.

Wow. (laughs cynically)

It's funny. Right?

-(Minhu laughs cynically) -(laughs awkwardly)

-(sobs) -(Minhu sighs deeply)

(sighs deeply)

(gulps)

(sighs)

YESOOL: The next target

is me.

Ms. Hong Yesool.

What's your job title?

It's AE.

What does an AE do?

AE is the leader of an advertising team

that makes commercials on behalf of advertisers.

They encourage members of the production, media, and many other teams

to work with limited time and budgets

and plan advertising strategies.

They're coordinators who help advertising firms meet

-the needs of advertisers... -MINHU: You don't respect me, do you?

Sorry?

You don't.

That's why you did nothing until it ended up like this

and presented it as an outcome.

Proudly.

Even though you're the person in charge. Huh?

SANGGOO: Well, but we...

We're encouraging each other to create something new...

You copied the two sentences from last season's proposal.

The tone, colors, and font.

You copied page 32 of the reference.

And the background music is similar

to the one in KS Electronics' recent campaign for about two seconds.

(thuds)

If you're going to work like some college students,

pay tuition instead of getting paid every month.

All right?

(Minhu sighs) Do it again.

I'll give you one more day.

-The end. -SANGGOO: The end.

(upbeat music)

Ms. Hong Yesool.

Yes, Mr. Cha?

Your sixth sense.

Didn't it tell you?

You're an AE. How did you not know that it would turn out like this?

(sighs)

If you don't have an eye for it, just quit.

The deadline is too tight.

And our CD hasn't been feeling well, so...

Ms. AE.

Use your tongue to work.

Not to blame others.

You.

Is it too early to be a PM?

I'm sorry, sir.

I wasn't able to meet your expectations.

I had no expectations of you. Don't overestimate yourself.

Get out.

(Minhu sighs)

(groans)

(panting)

How did you know Master Cha would bash the proposal?

I've worked with him for five years. It's a piece of cake to read his mind.

(gasps) Yesool.

Is that why you prepared Plan B?

Huh? Did you go to Plan A even though you knew he'd bash it?

He would've bashed it no matter what we showed him.

It's better to show him the worst one first.

Then we'll get scolded less when we show him a better one next time.

Ah, that was your plan.

(sighs)

Cha, that crazy asshole.

(mumbles)

I really want to kill him,

but I'll have mercy on him today.

(inhales deeply)

(sighs deeply)

That's one way to do it. It's always like this.

I'm short on ideas.

(sighs) Jeez.

Everyone.

We need to revise the proposal in 24 hours.

Now click your mouse on the folder named Billy.

Really Seriously Crazy Last One 18.

The Final Plan A. Next to that.

The file we carefully created.

We Won't End Up Clicking This, Will We?

Nineteen. Plan B.

Open it.

(upbeat music)

Click.

Click!

Eighteen. The final version.

Brown-eyed Bulbul...

(chuckles)

Really. Seriously. Crazy.

-EMOJI: Gosh, eighteen. -SANGGOO: Last One Eight...

(panting) Eighteen. Eighteen. Eighteen. Eighteen.

Oh, gosh!

Nephew... Nephew Pa...

CUSTOMERS 2020: 132 2021: 160

(upbeat music)

(music stops)

(traffic noise)

Something soft. That's what this is.

Are you listening to me? Huh?

(indistinct chatter)

(inhales)

(exhales deeply)

Yesool.

I'm doing a vlog about my intern life.

Please tell me the secret to becoming the youngest PM in this company.

Mr. Intern. Get an idea of what's going on now.

(on camera) Forget this vlog

or whatever. Turn off your phone

and at least pretend to search for references.

Well, to search for references,

I need to know what the role of an AE is or advertising vocabulary...

What do you not understand?

(clears throat) What are Deities and what's Master Cha?

We call advertisers "Deities" because they are deities to us.

And Master Cha is Mr. Cha Minhu's nickname.

And the role of an AE is...

Oh, I learned that from you earlier. When you were being scolded by Master Cha.

(giggles) Thank you.

(sighs)

(clicks tongue)

-EMPLOYEE 1: Hello. -EMPLOYEE 2: Hello.

(chuckles awkwardly)

I learned about the duties of an AE

mostly from that punk.

The punk who is called Master Cha.

(quirky music)

A life of luxury. Transforming your dream into reality.

This is the house you want to live in.

We'll pioneer a new genre.

Thank you for your attention.

I'm AD and Assistant Manager Lee Dahee. Thank you.

YESOOL: Actually, he is...

a deity in the advertising industry.

Use your sixth sense.

By the clients' words, the looks on their faces,

and their tones, you can tell whether or not

you'll win the contract.

Only those who can do that survive in this industry.

I DID USE MY SIXTH SENSE AND READ THE SIGNS

(gulps)

THE NATURAL FOREST COMES INTO YOUR ROOM

YESOOL: I DID USE MY SIXTH SENSE AND READ THE SIGNS

YESOOL: Cha, that asshole.

If he starts with a smile when he's obviously pissed off,

that's a sign that our proposal will be turned down.

If he touches his neck, that means his next target is me.

Read the signs and make the impossible possible.

That's the job of an AE.

(sighs)

YESOOL: I did read the signs, but I guess I'm not experienced enough.

I know what's going to happen,

but I get frustrated when it actually happens.

YESOOL: CHA, THAT ASSHOLE.

-YESOOL: You know what I mean? -(soft chuckles)

EOMJI: Hey, I think you're mistaken.

It's not just today that you were frustrated.

You've been frustrated for the last five years.

EOMJI:

YESOOL: That's true.

I felt it on the first day.

FIVE YEARS AGO

(Eomji coughs)

(keyboard clacking)

(coughs)

(sniffles)

(keyboard clacking)

I'm your mentor.

Oh. (breathes deeply)

(sighs)

(sighs)

You can't go anywhere dressed like that.

Sorry?

Change the way you dress. Your makeup and hairstyle too.

The look in your eyes, the way you speak,

and your facial expressions. Fix all of them.

When we meet our clients for the first time,

we should be able to show them our expertise and confidence visually.

You can't wear a suit that looks too stiff.

Nor something casual that makes you look less reliable.

Definitely not...

what you're wearing now.

(hiccups)

(quirky music)

(chuckles awkwardly)

Then h-how...

Do I have to spoon-feed you?

Should I start by telling you what AE stands for?

(sniffles) AE...

Follow me.

-Hurry! -(chair scrapes)

Okay.

He seems to have a lot of anger. Be careful.

(hiccups)

(in a quiet voice) He's so scary.

He's so scary.

(exhales through the nose) Oh, dear.

(coughs)

Oh, no.

(sniffles)

(quirky music continues)

Go get dressed.

I am dressed.

Get dressed properly.

(indistinct chatter)

SBC MR. CHA MINHU

Well...

YESOOL: I knew from the get-go

that I should never mess with him.

THREE YEARS AGO

You worked all night on this proposal?

That doesn't mean you can be forgiven for submitting a piece of shit like this.

-(whimpers) -(sighs)

(sniffles)

Why are you crying? Are you getting fired?

Did you get dumped by your boyfriend?

Are you so sick that you can't help crying?

If it's not one of these three cases, don't cry.

At least not at your workplace.

YESOOL: A jerk who enjoys humiliating me.

A jerk who can't sleep

unless he points out my mistakes.

-Come on. -(Yesool sniffles)

Are you going to cry every time you get criticized?

You can't cry for 24 hours.

Learn to fight back tears.

Here.

(inhales)

(inhales) What's this?

(breathes deeply)

(Minhee whimpering)

(Minhee sobbing)

Open the door.

(whimpers)

Did the production chief go nuts when you said you'd change the proposal?

(whimpers)

You begged him like crazy and got an okay,

but did the media chief complain about the schedule?

(sobs) Yesool.

I don't think I can be an AE.

(sobbing)

Come on out.

Why are you crying?

Are you getting fired? Did you get dumped by your boyfriend?

Are you so sick that you can't help crying?

If it's not one of these three cases, don't cry.

At least not at your workplace.

(soft music)

Here. Go to a hair salon and take a two-hour nap.

Go to a hair salon and take a two-hour nap.

The way you look now,

you won't be able to convince anyone.

The way you look now, you won't be able to convince anyone.

Here.

(whimpers)

YESOOL: I learned

all of this damn stuff from my mentor. (blows air)

I cursed that asshole when I first heard it.

But now I'm doing the same thing to my junior.

SANGGOO: It's not true, right? Right?

ROMA: Naturally.

-SANGGOO: Ms. Hong. I told him to do this. -YESOOL: Bye.

I wasn't slacking off. Don't watch me.

Get lost.

You finish three hours earlier if I stand next to you, Ms. AD.

You're like a ghost.

You psychic bitch.

A bitch who is just like Cha Minhu.

TO MAKE YOUR PRIVATE SPACE SOFT BILLY, THE SPACE THAT COVERS YOUR SECRETS

Eomji.

Isn't it better that I come instead of Cha Minhu?

Anyway,

another all-nighter, and we'll all be free.

Alrighty.

(choking) For goodness' sake.

(sighing) Jeez.

By the way, how did you know that it was going to rain this morning?

-Oh, that? -Yes.

Well, it's a secret, but I'll tell you.

Baloney. She says everything she tells me is a secret.

I...

can see the future.

(comical music)

(sighs)

(inhales) Working all night is really bad for you.

(inhales deeply)

Everyone is going crazy.

(sighs)

(whimsical music)

(panting) MS. YOON: Just a second!

(whimsical music continues)

AUTOMATIC OPERATION

YESOOL: It's true that I can see the future.

No one may believe me,

but I have a sixth sense.

When my lips touch someone else's body,

I can see that person's future.

I found out about this ability 22 years ago.

But I have no idea how I got it.

SARA: I'm his guardian. Wait.

Honey.

(Sara sobs)

(tense music)

Kiss me on the cheek.

YESOOL: I don't know when it'll happen.

But one thing for sure is

that the future I see

always happens without fail.

-Ta-da. -(gasps)

Thank you.

All I want is a kiss on the cheek.

Well...

YESOOL: How unfortunate I am

to be able to see someone else's future.

What a cursed ability.

(laughs)

I'm well aware of that.

Whenever I kissed someone I loved,

I wasn't in their future.

(music stops)

(light music playing)

Well... (sighs)

I mean...

let's...

break up.

Okay. Let's do that.

Good.

I was sick of you anyway.

(light music playing)

(dramatic music)

(music fades)

(scoffs)

What an asshole. I bought that drink.

What a ridiculous jerk.

(slurping)

(cup thuds)

(clicks tongue) Gosh.

YESOOL: So not using this horrible ability is my ironclad rule.

(dramatic music)

(exhales)

(music stops)

(coughs)

(quirky music)

Oh, dear. (coughs)

(coughs)

(sighs deeply)

(both chuckle)

(coughs)

(quirky music continues)

Let's break up.

All right? We're over.

I have no idea what you want.

How can you...

How can you still have a cold? It's been three months.

I've never seen a girl like you.

This is the right thing to do. Let's break up.

Kiss! Shit!

(smooches)

(whimsical music)

(tutting)

YESOOL: I promised myself that I'd never kiss someone in my life again.

And I tried.

But no matter how hard I try, there are times it just happens.

That's beyond my control.

(light music playing)

(light music playing continues)

(clicks tongue)

-(switch clicks) -(music stops)

Man.

(grunts)

YESOOL: Thank you for your hard work.

I apologize for delaying it by one day.

Before you present it to the deity,

you need to get an okay from Master Cha, don't you?

That's right. If we get an okay from him,

it'll be a piece of cake to get one from the deity.

(breathes deeply)

(in English) Okay, okay.

(in Korean) I'll get going.

(groans)

Hi, Mr. Yeom.

Cha Minhu isn't here.

He's not here, right?

I'm a busy person, for God's sake.

Hey.

Why isn't he here with you today?

You two are usually joined at the hip. (giggles)

We've finished checking it.

Please take a final look at it, Mr. Yeom.

(yawning) I'm sure you did a good job.

(groans with fatigue)

Videos for PPMs are pretty much the same.

Mr. Yeom.

Can we talk outside for a minute?

-(footsteps receding) -(door opens)

What did she say?

She wants to talk to you outside.

Jeez. Who does she think she is? Someone who can order me around?

For God's sake. (tuts)

(groans)

(exhales deeply)

Mr. Yeom. We had over a hundred meetings before the PPM.

Do you know how many of them you attended?

(burps)

(exhales deeply)

Exactly.

Why do you keep holding such unnecessary meetings?

Planning Team 1.

That's why I hate to work with you guys.

Hey. You're worse than Cha Minhu. You know that?

Jeez.

You need to attend the final confirmation PT tomorrow.

Okay?

Don't you know what I'm like?

I'm going to be thoroughly prepared to impress our client...

Please make sure to follow the manual this time.

-You checked what I e-mailed you, right? -(sniff)

(in English) Oh, shit. (stomach grumbles)

(stuttering) Well, okay. All right. Here.

(moans in pain) Wait. Gosh, this is not good.

(in a quiet voice) That's disgusting, for God's sake.

I tried to meet the client's needs as much as possible.

(inhales deeply)

(sighs)

All right.

Since this is your first project as a PM,

take full responsibility for the process and the result.

By the way,

the color of the brand logo is wrong.

No, it's not.

Look.

Do you see the difference in brightness and chroma?

Didn't you check that?

And here.

Extend the last shot by 0.2 seconds

and add the copy.

Make the logo bigger too.

Okay?

(quirky music)

Ms. Hong.

Yes?

Go get changed.

What?

Are my clothes still tacky?

Well...

these are quite expensive brand-name clothes though.

No, I mean...

Huh?

(gasps)

(groans)

(upbeat music)

(door opens)

(upbeat music continues)

Tissues. Tissues. Tissues. Hurry.

Tissues? Here, I've got some toilet paper.

(mumbling) I'm bleeding a lot from the nose.

(stuttering) You need to hurry? What...

Is she getting an urgent call of nature?

Anyway, stop...

YEAR 2022 BILLY MARKETING PPM

(light music playing continues)

(music stops)

(director inhales)

If you put an air-conditioner in that space,

it'd be an air-conditioner commercial.

And with a washing machine, it'd be a washing machine commercial.

Doesn't it lack identity

as a bed commercial?

It's kind of ordinary.

(inhales) Well, I think...

it's important to make people curious about our brand.

What do you think, Mr. Cha?

You're right.

But highlighting nature

is something that Billy has never tried before,

so I'm sure it'll bring about the desired effect.

(in English) Okay.

(in Korean) I count on you, Mr. Cha.

(clears throat)

Shit.

(laughs softly)

Mr. Cha.

-I have high expectations for this. -Thank you.

(laughs softly)

(exhales sharply)

It's Yesool who did the presentation.

Why do they want to sign the contract with Mr. Cha?

He's been in charge of this brand for years. It's only natural.

MINHEE: He surely is amazing.

You know, their attitude completely changes when Master Cha is present.

(smacking lips) Master Cha has the upper hand

even when deities are present.

Look at my chief.

He left as soon as the meeting ended.

-That cunning bastard. -Exactly.

I think we can go home straight from here today. No overtime work.

Go home and spend some time with your parents, meet your lovers,

and do piled-up laundry.

(all cheer)

-Oh, wait. Wait. -Now what?

We should throw a welcome party for our intern before he'll get sulky.

-Do we have to do that too? -Sanggoo will buy us meat!

(all cheer)

Yesool.

You'll come to the party, right?

Well...

-We'll do the shoot this weekend. -(gasps)

What?

We'll have a meeting. Let's go back to the office.

Well...

(sighs) What the hell.

(stuttering) What's going on?

(Eomji sobs)

What about the party?

Hong Yesool.

Follow me.

(exhales deeply)

I've got to go.

Sure. You go first.

(quirky music)

When did I say I'd buy you meat? I never said that.

What do you know about my savings account? Jeez.

(car whooshing)

YESOOL: What's going on?

Where is he taking me?

I didn't do anything wrong.

Mr. Cha. Where are we going?

What's the first prerequisite for an AE?

Pardon?

Oh.

Communication skills, sir.

But why do you not have them?

I did pretty well

with my presentation today, didn't I?

You were so nervous that you couldn't even answer our client's questions.

And you think you did well?

That's because they asked you all the questions

and didn't give me a chance to answer.

What's the second prerequisite for an AE?

-Planning and budgeting... -Physical strength.

Build up your physical strength.

(gentle music)

DAEHAN UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL

See a doctor.

And then come back to the office.

What's wrong with him?

Did he eat something funny?

Aren't you getting out?

Oh, okay.

(clicks)

(car door opens)

(gentle music rises)

(engine revs)

(car whooshing)

DAEHAN UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL

How did he know this is the hospital I go to?

(scoffs)

THANK YOU CONTACT THE PROPS AND LIGHTING TEAMS TO CHECK...

(chuckles awkwardly) I'm a little busy now.

(chuckles)

Ms. Hong Yesool.

This is my tenth time saying it. You need to get more sleep.

I can't allow you to sleep less than this.

Never. Never.

I said "never" twice. You know what that means, right?

Listen.

Insomnia.

Nervous breakdown.

You have both of these.

-(thudding) -Having both of these

is really, really dangerous.

Really!

I said "really" twice too.

I'm fine, doctor. For God's sake.

(clears throat)

(laughs)

Well, Red Bomb.

Did you drink it or not?

Today? Yesterday? In the morning? Or at night?

-When? -(Seungtaek laughs)

You obviously drank it. I told you many times not to drink it.

Something serious could happen

if you drink it while you're on medication.

Don't you remember what happened two years ago?

You were carried here completely unconscious.

Gosh, this damn advertising company is harsher than the medical industry.

And why do AEs never listen to their doctors?

Why?

Do you have another AE as your patient?

Well...

(quirky music)

(sighs)

(inhales)

(chuckles awkwardly) You aren't the only one

who cares about your health.

Please don't make me suffer anymore.

If you make that son of a gun call me again...

That son of a gun?

Oh, nothing. (chuckles awkwardly)

Well, it's nothing.

Don't drink Red Bomb and espresso.

Never, never.

Don't just take pep pills

from your drug packets and get caught by me.

I won't. I won't.

I won't drink Red Bomb and coffee anymore.

I'll stop drinking them.

(quirky music)

Promise me.

(grunts)

Pop.

(can hisses)

(slurps)

(moans)

(exhales)

Wow.

(smacks lips) This is what I want.

(groans)

(groans)

I can't stop drinking you, though.

-(scoffs) -(sighs)

Hong Yesool.

Pull out of the Morphis campaign.

Wait, what?

I'm doing my best to be the PM of that project too.

The proposal is almost complete.

I've been staying up several nights to work on that one and the Billy project.

You can't even take care of your health. You're not reliable.

But did I

ever mess with the plan?

I'm doing my best

to hang tough, you know?

Exactly. Don't hang tough. Just rest.

Wait, Mr. Cha.

(groans)

(screams)

(quirky music)

(grunts)

Damn it!

Damn it!

(screams)

-(screams) -(groans in pain)

-Ms. Hong! -(groans in pain)

-Are you okay? -Oh, no.

Yes.

I'm fine.

I was just checking the continuity. (sighs)

The bed.

Oh, it's so comfortable.

Redo the layout.

And contact the production team to make sure that the lights are LEDs.

The layout? He's being ridiculous.

Readability, clarity, and attractiveness. Consider all these.

Lights are LEDs? I want him to die.

Don't forget to highlight the beauty of space.

The beauty of space? What a crazy jerk.

Lastly, contact the agency manager.

Should I beat him up and go to prison?

And get a written progress report.

Agency manager? What should I do with that asshole?

THE LAYOUT? HE'S BEING RIDICULOUS LIGHTS ARE LEDS? I WANT HIM TO DIE...

Oh, Ms. Hong.

Yes, Mr. Cha?

Go survey the shooting location tomorrow morning.

With the AD.

A...

We'll make sure everything is okay.

(whispers) Hey. Why me, all of a sudden?

Congrats. (chuckles awkwardly)

(whispers) You're the best.

(sighing) Dang it.

-Did you write all that down? -(employee chuckles)

-(sighs deeply) -EOMJI: Why does he always speak so fast?

(grass rustling)

(indistinct chatter)

EOMJI: Hey, maybe Master Cha likes you.

Are you crazy?

Jeez.

That asshole wants to kill me.

He almost killed me on the stairs.

What happened? Did he push you?

(stuttering) No.

It's not that.

(in a loud voice) I think

you hate Master Cha for no reason.

Right?

Why would he help someone he wants to kill build a career?

Oh, sir. Hello. Thank you for your hard work. We'll do our best.

Hi.

EOMJI: Hey, you're the most successful one among our colleagues.

None of us have a portfolio as impressive as yours.

-Do I look like I'm successful? -(camera shutter clicks)

Red Bomb and pep pills make my head spin all the time.

Now all I have left are a gastric ulcer, menstrual irregularity,

-and extreme insomnia. -(camera shutter clicks)

(moans in frustration)

Hey, guys usually pick on girls when they like them.

Then does he like everyone in our company?

He picks on just about everyone.

He just picks on me more often. That's it.

Wow! The view is amazing here. Wait. Stop.

One, two, three.

-(camera shutter clicks) -Cut.

Gosh, it's so nice.

(scoffs) Wait for me!

(indistinct chatter)

Hey, I suggest that you date someone.

Spend some time with a guy on a bed

-so you can get some sleep. -(sighs)

Hey, let's try to seduce someone

at our company's upcoming anniversary party.

-Hello. -Oh, hello.

Media Team 2. Assistant Manager Kim Choongmo.

He graduated from a prestigious university and owns real estate.

Besides, his parents... live abroad.

Wow, wow! (laughs)

He's perfect. (snorts)

Goodness. My background is as good as his.

I don't care if his parents live abroad. (scoffs)

(smacks lips)

My dear friend.

How long has it been...

since you used your tongue with a guy?

What?

(sighs) How long...

(blubbering) ...has it been since your tongue...

(blubbering continues) ...last wrestled with a guy's tongue?

I mean, how long has it been since you lied down on a bed

and did this with a guy?

I don't believe what guys say in bed.

I don't bet my life on such a fantasy.

I would rather bet on my abilities, brain, and achievements.

It's good.

If I work hard, I get rewards. Nothing is as rewarding as work.

(groans in frustration) You're so inflexible.

(inhales deeply) I want to kiss a guy so badly.

-"I love you, darling." And kiss. Bam. -CHOONGMO: Ms. Jang.

-Oh, yes? -There's something I need to ask you.

I'm coming. Oh, my back hurts.

(light music)

YESOOL: There were times when I thought

I could enjoy romance if I put in the effort.

But...

(cell phone ringing)

(ringing continues)

Hello?

(car approaching)

(engine rumbling)

(engine revs)

(upbeat music)

(upbeat music continues)

JIYOUNG: I don't like things like this.

Ouch!

-Hey, be gentle. -(Jiyoung moans)

-HAIRSTYLIST: I'm sorry. -MANAGER: Are you okay, Jiyoung?

For goodness' sake.

YESOOL: Dealing with a mode is one of the easiest tasks of an AE.

Let me see. You're fine, right?

YESOOL: And I've done it many times.

JIYOUNG: Are you sure this glittery thing looks good on me?

MANAGER: Yes, it's pretty. You look so beautiful.

Hello.

I'm AE Hong Yesool, the PM of this Billy commercial.

(scoffs)

I guess I didn't complain hard enough.

The person in charge didn't come but sent someone else.

(sighs) When is Minhu, my darling, coming?

YESOOL: "My darling?"

-What's that supposed to mean? -MANAGER: Have a seat.

Oh.

Mr. Cha is on his way here.

He said he'd be a little late, so I came first.

I guess you have poor judgment.

You're making a commercial with Oh Jiyoung,

but purity?

(scoffs) I've never

tried such a concept since I was 22.

All the dramas and movies I was in as a pure and innocent girl

completely bombed. Didn't you know?

What do you mean, bombed? (soft chuckle)

I love "Hello Again," the one that you're in.

I personally love it when you appear as a pure and innocent girl.

But unfortunately, the theme of this commercial isn't purity.

It's just about you. Oh Jiyoung as an individual.

(inhales)

(rustling)

We're also planning to hold

a social media event where we sell a package of goods

that you use at night before going to bed.

JIYOUNG: What does this have to do

with the bed commercial?

People are curious to know where you sleep and what you eat.

Things that you do before going to bed, the tea that you drink,

and even the cosmetics that you use.

(inhales) This event isn't just about the bed.

It's about Oh Jiyoung as well.

Through this commercial, you'll be able

to show the values of Oh Jiyoung that people admire.

(sighs)

It's not bad.

Now I see why Minhu keeps you around.

(chuckles) I'll take that as a compliment.

I'll get going then.

By the way, Ms. Hong.

What lipstick

do you use?

JIYOUNG: I like the color.

(ominous music)

YESOOL: Okay. Good.

(chuckles) The one you use is a much better one.

Oh, Ms. Oh. Just a minute.

(upbeat music)

Hey, let's resume.

(upbeat music)

(upbeat music continues)

Ms. Oh.

(squeaks)

(music stops)

Oh, well...

(stuttering) Well, I was just...

Oh, I got something for you.

You said you liked the color of my lipstick,

so I bought one for you.

I'll leave it there,

so please continue what you were doing.

(gasps)

(grunts)

(chuckles awkwardly)

(quirky music)

It flew.

(exhales deeply)

(chuckles awkwardly, groans)

(stuttering) I'm sorry to interrupt you.

I'll leave right now. I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.

Ms. Oh. I'll see you on the day of the shoot.

Bye, Mr. Cha.

I'll get going.

-(hurried footsteps receding) -(quirky music continues)

Jiyoung. It's time to go.

Go ahead and do the shoot.

Minhu.

Please check her hair once more. Bring the dress too.

The dress, please.

What was that?

What was he doing with Oh Jiyoung?

By any chance, are they...

(gasps) They must be crazy.

(scoffs)

-Ms. Hong. -(gasps)

-What happened earlier was... -It's all right.

I'm the one who should be sorry for ruining the mood.

It's your private life. I shouldn't have barged in like that.

You're old enough, you know?

There's nothing wrong with kissing this girl and that girl.

(inhales) This girl and that girl? And what?

No, nothing.

(light music)

I did it with that girl,

but not with this girl.

It's a misunderstanding, so watch your mouth.

All right?

MINHU: Come back in.

(breathes shakily)

(gulps)

(coughs)

(horn honking)

MINHEE: By the way, when is Yesool coming?

She said she'd come, so I came too.

This is my welcome party, and you're not here for me?

No.

All Kim Minhee cares about is Hong Yesool.

She's not interested in people like you.

(scoffs)

So...

(taps)

So are you getting used to the planning team?

How do you like the AE work?

(moans uncertainly)

You know AEs are the flower of an advertising company.

The flower is in full bloom.

What do you think you're doing?

That's not how you do it. What the heck are you doing?

That's right. AEs are like flowers.

They get snapped off all the time.

They gradually wither away and get dumped.

Just like me.

Did you say goodbye to your parents and lover?

Work-life balance, my foot.

It's not easy for us to have free time in the evening.

Our life is all about overtime work.

All right. Let's have a toast.

(all cheer)

-All right! -SANGGOO: Bottoms up! Bottoms up.

(all slurping)

-YESOOL: It's not over yet, is it? -EOMJI: I feel drunk.

-I like it so much. I do. It feels good. -ROMA: Wow!

-MINHEE: What took you so long? -SANGGOO: Go take those.

-(Yesool sighs) -(chuckles)

(chuckles) I haven't drunk for a while.

(slurps)

ROMA: By the way,

why is Mr. Cha Minhu not here today?

You know, it's the first and last welcome party for me.

Roma.

Just like families and classes have their own mottoes,

our team has a motto too.

That's right!

Don't ever think of having a meal with Mr. Cha.

Our team never had a meal together for the past five years.

What?

I'll give you some handy tips. Write them down quickly.

-Write them down. -Okay.

Don't talk too much when Mr. Cha is present.

Don't use your tongue but bring results.

And when you're with Mr. Cha, your memory is always wrong.

Always write down what he says.

Record it too if you can.

MINHEE: You know what?

Mr. Cha never meets people outside of work.

He neither has a hobby nor belongs to a social club.

Besides, it seems that he's not seeing anyone.

How does he figure out the needs of every client?

-I get goose bumps. -"I get goose bumps."

-He can read other people's minds. -(munching)

-Really? -Uh-huh.

You'll see that when you follow him to presentations.

He has the ability to shut people up by figuring out what they'll say

before they even open their mouths.

-(exclaims) -EOMJI: He even distinguished

a heavy rain from a shower during post-sync.

-(Sanggoo chuckles) -He's a five-sense freak who knows

the color of every sound.

Well, do sounds have different colors?

(munches) How would I know?

(munching)

-Ms. Hong has many abilities too. -Huh?

It was a commercial for camping supplies last month.

I wonder how she knew that the model's outfit would be ripped.

She prepared an extra, so the shoot went very smoothly.

(laughs)

She's a precognition freak.

She always says she foresees the future.

I'm so sick of hearing her say that. For goodness' sake.

From now on, I'm just going to follow you guys around.

(laughs) Don't do that.

Mr. Cha doesn't take just anyone with him.

Just follow me around. I can take you with me. (laughs)

-That's mine! -You're daring.

-This fellow is quite daring. -(Sanggoo laughs)

-EOMJI: Now I can see that. -SANGGOO: All right! Let's have a toast!

(all cheer)

Just a second.

-EOMJI: Rock! Yes! -(Yesool sighs)

KYUNGSEOK (on phone): Gosh, we'll just set it up tonight.

No, Mr. Yeom.

Please follow the directions on the manual.

There's nothing impossible.

Hey, everyone is on the set right now to set up the bed.

You can't set it up outside already.

What if something happens before the shoot tomorrow...

Come on! Nothing will happen. Hey.

If we set it up early tomorrow morning,

everyone will be too tired to do the shoot.

Why are you so inflexible? Jeez. (tuts)

I told our staff that we'd set it up early tomorrow morning.

And that's what I notified Mr. Cha of...

Hey! Forget it! All right?

-But... -I'll take care of it all,

so don't worry! (tuts)

Sleep tight. I'll see you at seven tomorrow.

-For God's sake. -(chimes)

Here you go, darling.

Oh. (munches)

(sighing) Gosh.

I'll have mercy on him until tomorrow's shoot.

Boy.

What? Where did everyone go?

Rock, paper, scissors.

Yes!

(rustling)

(coughs)

Hello. (laughs)

(crickets creaking)

Hello!

(laughs) Take a break to have this.

-(laughs) -Here.

The production team will come soon to do a final check.

Why do you guys keep coming? You're on the planning team.

Ms. Hong stopped by too a while ago.

Well, this is my job. (laughs)

Boy, you're now a chief. But you haven't changed at all.

-You take care of everything from A to Z. -(laughs)

Guys.

Mr. Cha brought some food for us. Let's eat.

-WORKER 1: Thank you. -WORKER 2: Thank you.

-Hello. -Guys. Come.

I've brought enough food for everyone. Please help us until the end.

Mr. Cha.

If it doesn't look abundant enough, we have more here, so add them.

Okay. It looks good.

(laughs softly)

We just need to fill this. Then we can go home.

-Thank you for the food. -Sure. Go ahead and eat.

Yes.

(exhales)

(crickets creaking)

(whooshing)

(phone ringing)

CHIEF CHA MINHU

Gosh, why is this punk calling me again?

Hi, Mr. Cha.

Are you ready for the shoot tomorrow?

I checked with the directing and production teams and the models.

I don't think there's going to be any problem with the shoot tomorrow.

You think? Or are you sure?

Make sure there's no problem at all.

(sighs)

Okay.

Oh, and Mr. Cha.

Can you please take a look at my project proposal

for the Morphis Campaign...

HONG YESOOL CALL ENDED

(crickets creaking)

(sighs softly)

(quirky music sting)

(sighs)

I need some sugar.

(door lock clicking)

(blows air)

(slurps)

(door lock beeping)

(exclaims) Ramyeon is filling.

(screams)

What are you doing here?

What's up with you being at home? You scared me.

What's so scary about me being at my mom's house?

Please answer Auntie's calls, will you?

She calls me from the US all the time because you won't answer her calls.

(slurps) Okay.

-(munches) -(sighs)

I was away from home for several days.

But you didn't even care, did you?

(munching) I didn't come home for an entire week.

Did you care?

I'm sure you worked all night with Cha Minhu.

(clicks tongue)

What's that?

You don't know? (sighs)

(slurps)

(mug thuds)

You broke your promise with me again. (sighs)

I don't have much time left. Don't you feel sorry for my life?

You're mean.

You're so mean.

(grunts)

GETTING A TATTOO (I THINK IT'LL HURT) STAYING AT HOME FOR A WEEK

(inhales, sighing)

(soft thump)

(clicks tongue)

Are you mad?

(rustling)

Come on.

I want to spend time with you too.

When this campaign is over, let's...

Yesool.

Now,

I don't have much time left.

(sighing) You know...

what my future will be like.

(inhales deeply)

(exhales deeply)

So what's your next mission?

I'll do that with you.

No.

You can't do it.

(breathes roughly)

(inhales deeply)

You still think so?

(soft music)

(laughs)

(inhales) Yesool.

I love you, Yesool. Thank you!

Oh, come on. Don't do that. How many are these?

(chuckles)

Thank you. (exclaims)

For goodness' sake. (grunts)

I love you, Yesool.

ZEU AD PLANNING TEAM 1, ZEU AD PRODUCTION TEAM 1...

(music stops)

It's strange.

Everything is set perfectly.

Why do I have a bad feeling about it?

(inhales)

(quirky music)

(scoffs)

What was that?

How could he play around with a girl at our sacred workplace?

What a douchebag.

(exhales deeply)

(sighs) I should go to sleep.

(grunts)

(inhales deeply)

But why can't I...

(inhales) ...get to sleep?

(snores)

(moans)

(exhales)

(thunder rumbles)

(cell phone ringing)

CHIEF CHA MINHU

My sixth sense.

Cha the Jerk is calling me at this hour of night?

That means something has happened.

(cell phone ringing)

Hi, Mr. Cha. I'm on my way...

What?

(thunder rumbles)

(rain pattering)

(gasps)

(grunts)

(pants)

(grunts)

(panting)

(moans)

(rain pattering)

PRODUCTION TEAM 1 CHIEF YEOM KYUNGSEOK CALLING

(line trilling)

(sighs)

Why isn't he picking up?

PRODUCTION TEAM 1 CHIEF YEOM KYUNGSEOK KIM MINHEE

(dial tone trilling)

How come none of them is picking up?

(sighs)

-Sir. Please go faster. -DRIVER: Okay.

(sighs)

(sighing) This is driving me crazy.

(rain pattering)

(sighs)

(rain pattering)

(panting)

Mr. Cha.

(thuds)

-(panting) -(glasses thud)

(rain pattering)

First, keep calling the production and directing teams.

-I'll help you. -Call them first!

(footsteps receding)

(pants)

(dial tone trilling)

(rain pattering)

(thunder rumbles)

(thunder rumbles)

I was able to reach some of the people on both teams,

and they're on their way here.

(clacks)

Who said you could set things up like this?

Just because you didn't want to come an hour earlier,

you put the bed outside?

I checked the weather forecast. It said nothing about rain.

(sighs)

And the production team wouldn't listen to me.

I'm just an assistant manager.

Thinking that I know nothing about technical things,

both the production and directing teams never follow my orders. You know that.

Is making an excuse all you can do in a situation like this?

Mr. Cha.

I'm on the planning team. But production, marketing,

and even odd jobs like this... Why do I have to do all those?

(sighs) If you still don't know why,

pull out of this campaign.

(rattles)

I'm sorry.

Think about what you can do now and tell me.

When the production team arrives...

Let's say you bring some people. Then what?

Can anyone replace you on this project?

All you can do now

is to bring someone and ask them to take care of the mess you made?

No, sir.

I'll make a revision for the shoot.

(sighs) Good.

(rain pattering)

(thunder rumbling)

(rain pattering)

Mr. Cha. (gasps)

(shrieks)

(thudding)

(dramatic music)

(rain pattering)

(dramatic music rises)

(dramatic music)

(crashes)

YESOOL: My sixth sense.

I've never foreseen something like this.

I foresaw a future that should never happen.

(tense music)

(closing theme music)
