Original subtitles

I thought we hired them...

because they did well on the interview.

Temporary employees for the sales and marketing department were...

selected by Mr. Park.

Aren't they temporary workers and candidates of a full-time position?

- That's right. - Are you telling me...

they were hired through connections?

Don't we have to have principles for the hiring process?

They have to at least meet the minimum requirements.

I'm not involved in this.

If you want to quibble over it, go and talk to Mr. Park.

There was criticism in last year's hiring process.

Don't you need to be more careful this year?

You're making it sound like there were irregularities this year too.

We can't hire competent workers unless the hiring process is fair.

We can't lift the workers' morale...

unless the personnel affairs are transparent.

Work must be hard for Mr. Park.

I can still hear you.

(Job Application)

Have you seen it?

Do you have proof?

My goodness.

Why is everyone making false charges these days?

I hold myself back and keep things to myself.

Are you judging me for that?

What's the matter?

"What's the matter?"

You accused me of an unjust act and told Human Resources Team.

What's that about?

Isn't it reasonable to question it?

Ki Taek wasn't even interviewed.

Isn't it natural to question why you hired these applicants?

I told you that I hired them based on who they were.

Gosh.

Mr. Seo.

This isn't how to behave in society.

I'm saying this since I see you as a younger brother and a colleague.

I'm neither your brother nor your colleague.

Talk to me as your general manager.

Fine.

Mr. Seo, are you happy?

I'll tell you one more time.

My sense of judgment...

and understanding of people...

may be different from yours.

However, you accused me of hiring candidates...

by unjust means such as personal connections.

I've been living with conviction over 50 years.

I understand.

What do you understand?

Manage your team based on your beliefs.

I'll manage mine based on my own.

I can't accept how they were hired,

so I won't work with them anymore.

You don't accept them? What if I made you accept them?

Okay.

Mr. Seo.

Here we are.

Let's do an interview like this.

I never did anything shameful in my life.

How dare you accuse me of doing something wrong?

Ho Won.

- Yes? - What do you parents do?

- Pardon me? - Never mind.

Listen carefully.

Is any of your family members including immediate and relatives...

related to the company in any way?

Is there?

Okay, have you ever bought me anything like chocolates?

What do you mean?

She hasn't.

I smell something.

Smell what?

I smell something unusual.

Get away. Your breath stinks.

Ji Na, don't you sense it?

I sense unsettling energy from that office.

Mr. Seo seemed quite angry.

He said there was a problem in the hiring process.

It doesn't seem good at all.

In that case,

are we here...

because you're suspicious of us?

That's not why.

He's suspicious of me, Park Sang Man.

What have I done wrong in my life?

That's correct. I'm suspicious of you.

I'm also suspicious of these three who were hired by you.

It's not what you think.

I met Mr. Park here for the first time.

Did you hear that?

She met me here for the first time.

Why do you keep saying I hired them through connections?

I have reasons to suspect you.

I'm verifying if it's true or not.

Among so many applications,

I'm not convinced as to why you hired them.

It's hard to accept that you hired someone without interviewing him.

Mr. Seo, that was only because...

I didn't ask for personal reasons.

I don't have enough money to bribe anyone.

I don't have personal connections in my family.

I thought...

we were hired based on standards other than our resumes.

Right, that's exactly right.

- You knew it already. - I...

I also...

Hold on. See?

They have nothing.

They have nothing to hide.

What will we find if we keep questioning them?

We'll only find the sad and miserable reality.

Don't you agree?

Did you know...

you were eligible for full-time positions after three months?

It doesn't matter. That won't be the case anymore.

Remember that, Mr. Park.

That's unfair.

What can we do to change...

your reasonable mind?

What caused me to suspect has already happened.

I'm trying to handle it as much as possible.

I heard about being eligible for full-time positions.

All of us were happy.

Shouldn't you give us time...

to prove if we deserve a full-time position?

We still have a lot of time left.

Yes, Ho Won is right.

Let me tell you again.

I hired them simply based on who they are.

Look, he's smart.

He has a good personality.

She's like a weed.

Sometimes, you need people like her.

She's persistent no matter what. Come on, tell him.

That's right. Give us a chance, Mr. Seo.

Competition should be fair, and the process should be transparent.

It's unfair to give a chance to those who can't guarantee that.

By the way,

if you're suspicious of us,

isn't it up to Mr. Park to prove you wrong?

What? Me?

Prove me wrong?

Remember the case related to hiring temporary employees...

for which you asked me?

It's causing me anxiety at work.

A young general manager...

accused me of hiring unfairly.

He's giving me a hard time.

Hiring unfairly?

That's interesting.

Did you say his name was Seo Woo Jin?

That's right.

I'm not sure how he was hired by the company.

No one in the office knew him previously.

He doesn't listen to anyone.

My goodness.

By the way,

at the end of this year,

the marketing and sales teams may be consolidated.

We can do something about him then.

I see.

He's quite...

meticulous.

It's very difficult to work with him.

If you make a fuss over such a minor issue,

it could be a lot worse next time.

Pardon me?

They recommended you to us as you're trustworthy and competent.

You come for help because you can't handle such a minor issue.

I'm disappointed.

No, that's not it.

I was only saying it out of concern.

Why are you so concerned?

You have integrity and a clean record.

You have no record of misconduct, do you?

Yes, that's right. Of course.

What an arrogant man.

Are you showing off that you're in power?

Anyway,

are those employees adjusting well?

Yes, they're doing well.

Hey.

Why did you call me?

I heard Mr. Seo is questioning how you were hired.

Is it because you weren't interviewed?

It makes sense.

Not being interviewed is like giving up the hiring process.

No wonder he suspects me for being hired.

So why didn't you...

I mean, didn't Mr. Park hire you?

He can explain to Mr. Seo then.

He did, but Mr. Seo doesn't believe him.

What will you do?

Will you tell him...

that you left because of me?

Why are you always so nervous?

Then why are you always...

so carefree?

(Marketing Team)

Ho Won, I should handle it.

I'll handle with what Mr. Seo suspects.

Ki Taek.

What are you trying to do? Let me have a word with you.

I'm sorry, Ms. Ha.

I believe I'm responsible for it.

- What will you do? - I'm sorry. It's all my fault.

Come in.

Mr. Seo, our team meeting time changed.

Take our talk to your grave.

Goodness.

I don't understand the purpose of this meeting.

Why would anyone shop online? Our stores are all over the country.

We have to empty out storage for new products.

Online shopping is the best to reduce our inventory.

Does online shopping guarantee that we'll sell out everything?

We have to put it on the market first.

Don't pretend like you know.

Reducing inventory?

It's best to pressure our stores to sell more.

Sales at the stores?

It's not that simple.

In the end, the stores will be pressured to reduce inventory.

That's the purpose of having stores.

Since sales made online aren't included...

Let me say this while we're at it.

Your team has been focusing on the result only.

- Why are you talking about results? - Mr. Lee.

Isn't our team a part of Hauline?

How can you even be saying that? Gosh.

Forget it. Home shopping network is useless if the products don't sell.

It won't work. It's just fool's gold.

There should be a law that keeps meetings under 20 minutes.

General managers make all the decisions.

Can't they have a meeting by themselves?

That's why we have a backup plan.

All right. Fine. Why are we having this meeting then?

Just do whatever you want. Go ahead. Okay.

- Stop right there. - Sir?

What is that?

- It's nothing, sir. - Something is written on it.

- What is that? - It's nothing.

Isn't that a game to test two people's compatibility?

- Be quiet. - What compatibility?

Let's see.

Goodness. It's only two percent. That's really bad.

Compatibility between whom?

It's not as high as two percent.

How great.

It's great to see you mess around during a meeting.

Our company has such a bright future.

Just continue the meeting. Go on.

The manufacturer of the free cushion for the home shopping sales...

will be switched to Modern Goods.

What about Fine Goods?

The former offers a lower price.

That company won't make deals with us.

We had a bad incident in the past. It'll be hard to get them.

Yes. Their product has great quality with good backstitch.

A lot of companies are waiting to make a contract with them.

It's almost impossible to make a contract with them now.

- You just don't want to try. - Pardon?

No, sir. It's not that.

I don't think I can take it to our graves.

Why don't we...

let the temporary employees get the contract with Modern Goods?

It'll be a good way to test their abilities.

Are you saying...

you want to let them handle the contract for the free cushion?

Yes. We're always in need of...

beds, sofas, and cushions for the store promotion anyway.

If we can get a stable supply from Modern Goods,

it will be helpful to our company.

We'll get the primary contract for the home shopping sales,

and then we can...

Won't it be too hard for them to handle this job?

I heard employment tests are very hard these days.

Maybe this is a good substitute.

But Ms. Cho and Ms. Ha said it'll be hard...

to get this contract.

It wouldn't be a test if it's not hard.

Fine. I will let you three handle...

the contract with Modern Goods. Make sure you get the contract.

This will be your employment test.

It's 99 percent. That's amazing.

Ho Won and Mr. Seo are a perfect match.

Even you couldn't do it because it was hard.

How can we do it?

We wouldn't ask you if it was easy.

You can clear the suspicion about Mr. Park...

and prove your competence with this.

Isn't it a good opportunity?

Show us what you can do.

Did you have to do this?

What about you? Did you have to do that?

You should get going.

Why did it...

suddenly turn out this way?

This may be good for us. Mr. Seo said he won't have...

any doubts about our employment if we succeed.

That's only if we succeed.

They said this company is very tough.

I'm sorry,

but it's no use crying over spilled milk. Let's clean it up first.

Crises present opportunities.

Why does Ki Taek keep apologizing to us?

I guess it's because he didn't take the job interview.

Hello.

- Hello. - Hello.

Hello, sir.

What brings you here?

We're here to order cushions.

Is that so? I don't recognize your faces.

Is this your first time doing business with us?

Yes. Are you the president?

I am the president.

Why don't I show you the sample catalog over there first?

- Okay. - Let's go.

All right.

Get out. Get out at once!

You should've said you're from Hauline!

- Please calm down. - When I started out my business,

I went to deliver goods to Hauline.

Do you know how they humiliated me?

We don't know that.

- It's before we joined the company. - Ki Taek.

Sir.

If we don't get this contract, we'll be in so much trouble.

- Can you please reconsider? - Forget it!

I don't think we can do this.

This must be why they all said it'll be hard to get this contract.

What do we do, Ki Taek? Should we just give up like this?

I don't give up on things.

Let's use our bodies.

Please let us help you.

I already said I don't want to do business with you.

We just like to do it. Please feel free to put us to work.

We're not doing business with you.

We already have enough orders.

Gosh. This won't change my mind.

- Sir. - Stop it already.

Please let me.

We're young and strong. Please let us do it.

Gosh. You're such unabashed fellows.

- Please let me do it. - Yes. We'll do it.

- Here. - All right.

Hey. The president is coming.

Sincerity always works.

Thank you for helping us.

We've loaded all the boxes.

If you need anything else, please tell us.

Forget it.

If this was going to change my mind, it'd have changed a long time ago.

What is this?

Go and get yourselves some food.

I hate freeloading.

Wait...

Please look at this picture.

Who is this man?

He's the man Mr. Park is seeing often recently.

He's not a subcontractor. I can't find out who he is.

Is that so?

I didn't know you did things like this.

Gosh. There are many people watching him besides me.

Mr. Seo.

There is someone who wants to meet you.

Could you spare some time for him?

The chairman will come out now.

I'm sorry I kept you waiting.

I'm Seo Woo Jin, a general manager at the marketing team.

I've heard so much about you from Koo Dong.

I inherited this company from my father.

When I was indulged in growing it bigger,

there was a new worker hired at the factory.

It was Mr. Heo.

I heard you're not managing the company anymore.

May I ask why you wanted to see me?

Running a company is like raising a child.

It feels like it's mine as I grow it bigger when it's small,

but when it's big,

it's no longer mine.

It belongs to the employees...

and the consumers who buy our products.

I have no intention of...

winning my superiors' favor.

I think of Hauline...

as a good company whose owner...

doesn't abuse his authority.

I just hope it is...

a sensible workplace where my hard work is recognized,

and my colleagues' efforts are rewarded.

That's what I want you to do.

That's exactly what I'm asking you to do.

I'm sure Koo Dong will help you do that.

Are you...

trying to use me?

You don't seem like a person who lets others use you.

I didn't know you were that kind of a person.

You have a very powerful backer.

Gosh.

If he was my backer,

I wouldn't be a manager for this long.

What's the reason?

Why did you set up a meeting between me and the chairman?

You wouldn't know how it feels...

to receive your salary in an envelope...

and count each bill to see how much it is.

You wouldn't know how good and reassured it feels to have...

that envelope inside your pocket.

They pay your salary directly to your bank account these days.

I don't know how that feels.

I often think of those envelopes on our payday.

The company felt like my home, and my colleagues felt like...

my family back then.

What are you trying to say?

I want to make this company that kind of a place again.

Mr. Seo.

You've been running away like a coward all this time.

If you didn't like the company, you quit.

You never did any dirty work.

Isn't that why you came to our company?

That's...

It's time to change.

If you don't like something, fix it. Cut out things that have rotten.

Make the company a place you can be proud of and work hard.

Who says you can't work your way up to becoming the CEO?

- Mr. Heo... - When your house is messy,

you have to clean it yourself.

Hauline.

Let's clean it up.

I want to return it to the company it used to be.

Mr. Seo.

Haven't you been running away like a coward so far?

It's not running away.

If you can't stand the heat, you have to get out of the kitchen.

I have nowhere to go even if I want to run away again.

- Sir. - Yes?

Do you...

trust me?

Of course I do. I've known you for long enough.

I don't think you trusted me when I used to work here.

What are you talking about?

Why do you think I was able to leave the store in your hands?

I can certainly say that you're a very trustworthy person.

You've proven your reliability.

- I can guarantee it. - Really?

Yes, of course.

Think about it.

Your job was dealing with cash and all the products here.

Do you actually think I would've kept someone whom I couldn't trust?

All right. Your total is seven dollars.

These are on me.

- Thank you. Put it on my tab. - Your tab?

- I'll pay you when I get paid. - That's a little...

You said you trust me.

You said I'm a very trustworthy person.

Thank you.

Here, I bought some refreshments.

What is it?

He must hate Hauline a lot.

I can't believe he's not even budging after all we've done.

I'm sorry.

You two are going through this because of me.

It's not your fault. I'm not sure about Kang Ho,

but Mr. Seo is suspicious of me as well.

This is more difficult than getting into the company.

It's really tough.

What should we do tomorrow?

Let's tell Mr. Heo and start the day at Modern Goods.

I'll think of a solution too.

Me too. We should do our best.

Exactly.

Let's do it. We can get through this if we stay strong.

Those chips won't do us any good.

We need real food. Let's eat something and power up.

Ki Taek, isn't this your wallet?

What is it?

- Ki Taek's wallet. - Two dollars, please.

- Yes, thank you. - Thank you.

Oh, where's my wallet?

- I think I left my wallet there. - It's here.

He said he had a girlfriend.

It was Ms. Ha?

Ki Taek's life is as hapless as mine.

No, that's not true. He at least has dated someone.

I need to treat Dr. Seo to a meal.

Shall I call him?

He probably didn't mean it though.

What are you doing so early? Did you get a side job or something?

Are you going to sell them in front of the station on your way to work?

Don't talk to me.

- Ho Won. - Hey, Kang Ho.

What is that?

This? Lunch that will hopefully move his heart.

I woke up early and made gimbap. What did you bring?

I brought one of my dad's liquors.

He has a full collection, so he won't notice.

Gosh, I really hope he knows how sincere we are.

By the way, when will Ki Taek get here?

Hey, comrades!

Ki Taek!

I got here super early and mopped the entire place.

He should be here soon.

That will make him happy.

- What did you guys bring? - I made lunch.

I brought a bottle of liquor.

Let's power up.

Here. With the liquor and gimbap, we can do this!

Take it back. How many times do I have to tell you I won't do it?

- Sir, please give us a chance... - Sir,

we're in a bit of a situation. Please accept our order.

That's exactly how I felt when I went to Hauline.

Now, I don't even need them.

I'm so swamped with orders that I simply can't take the job.

Sir, just this once. Please help us out just this time. We'll really...

Gosh, I already told you that I can't!

Clean this up and leave!

Just a moment, sir.

They say that there's always a way out...

no matter how difficult the situation may seem.

There must be a way.

I'm sorry, guys.

I couldn't help myself because he kept reminding me of my dad.

Don't worry about it. It was an impossible task to begin with.

I saw the pile of orders he has to work on.

All right, then. What's our plan B?

Finding another company who can do it for us for the same price.

By the way, what's with this gimbap? It's seriously so delicious.

Isn't it so good? Did you really make this?

I told you guys that I worked at a gimbap place for a long time.

It's unbelievably delicious.

How about we just open a gimbap place? Eun Jang Do Gimbap.

And we'll slice our gimbap with a silver knife with our names on.

I...

I'll do the slicing. You two should make them.

- All right. Let's call it a day. - Okay.

Mr. Lee, please update the sales report before you leave for the day.

Kang Ho and Jae Min, you two can leave now.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

- Thanks. - No problem.

Mr. Lee, I'll get going.

- All right. - I'll get going too.

- Good luck. - Thanks. Bye.

- Ho Won. - Yes?

Are things going well?

I'm trying my best.

Prove yourself with your abilities.

Don't give pointless excuses.

Ji Na, when will you introduce me to your friend?

Gosh, how many times have I told you to wait a little while?

She's busy these days.

I'm just realizing that you guys probably don't...

even have time to date because you always work late.

Ms. Ha, you don't have a boyfriend?

Of course she does. She's been with the same guy forever.

- Yong Jae. - Yes?

Do you have nothing to do? Why do you keep coming over to our team?

When will I get your wedding invitation?

You said your boyfriend passed the civil service exam last year.

Aren't you getting married soon?

I heard people saying you'll be the next one to get hitched.

Does your boyfriend work for the government?

Gosh, he has a great job.

I wanted to set you up with my nephew if you were single,

but you're already taken.

Set me up with your friend.

Mr. Heo, aren't you done for the day?

Yes, I should go home. Let's call it a day.

Mr. Seo left for the day too. Let's go home, everyone.

Time to go home!

(JY Telecom Eunsung Branch)

Are you going home now?

I guess this is why you were always annoyed when I called you at night.

You were exhausted from working until late hours.

Are you just realizing it now that you've experienced it yourself?

Yes, I didn't know before.

Why are you talking to me? Just continue along.

What is it? Do you want me to say sorry to you?

Should I apologize for lying to my co-workers about your exam?

It's not like that.

I'm sure you'll say that you've done your best.

The opportunity finally landed on you.

You even gave up the interview and took off.

How can you just leave like that though?

Are you an idiot?

- I was just... - Fine.

I told them you passed the exam because they kept asking me.

Do you know how much I wanted you to actually pass the exam?

I'm sure it hurt your pride,

but it's not like I wanted to lie.

Ji Na!

I wanted to apologize to you for making you lie like that.

I'm sorry.

Gosh, things would be much easier if I didn't have to see him around.

Why does he keep hovering around me and annoying me like that?

So? You couldn't do it, right?

We still can. Mr. Seo, if you could please give us more time...

Do they give you more time on an exam if you can't finish?

- There's a second exam. - That's...

for those who passed the first one.

He should keep quiet.

People at that company wouldn't meet with us.

That's why we looked up a new company.

Ho Won, do you still believe that...

you deserve to be full-time employees?

Is that all? You won't be eligible for full-time positions, okay?

Hello?

It's for you, Ho Won.

Hello, this is Eun Ho Won.

Ms. Eun.

- Thank you. - Pardon me?

- Are you talking to me? - I lived because of you.

You were right.

The hospital told me that I have cirrhosis.

Thank you so much.

Really, sir?

Okay.

Thank you. Thank you.

Mr. Seo, you can proceed with...

the contract with Modern Goods.

He said he'll deliver...

Hauline's orders first.

Is that so?

That's good.

Receive the orders according to the schedule.

What are they doing?

Are they celebrating their victory?

How did they make it happen?

They're quite good.

You're invincible.

You were right.

Did he find out his condition when he went to the hospital?

The doctor diagnosed him with cirrhosis.

The symptoms are the reddening of the chest and jaundice.

My dad has similar symptoms.

That's why I noticed them when I first saw him.

Good job. You're his savior.

Anyway, you barely survived Mr. Seo's evil intentions.

Could you please stop saying...

that we barely survived?

Many are being destroyed by Mr. Seo these days.

Are there others on different teams?

His fiendish character...

- makes him charming. - What?

Charming, my foot.

He's just evil.

He never compliments us.

All he said was to receive orders according to the schedule.

Gosh, he's terrible.

He's still handsome.

He has the looks and a great career.

He also has a good body.

His personality is terrible.

He's attractive because he's unfriendly.

All female employees on the 10th, 11th, and 12th floors...

are crazy about him.

Gosh.

Hello, Mr. Seo.

- Is the chief director here? - He's out for a meeting.

Shall I call you...

when he comes back?

It's okay.

Have a good day, Mr. Seo.

- Have a good day. - Have a good day.

How did she get the contract?

Gosh, 70 percent?

- Ms. Ha. - Yes?

Should I order 1,000 cushions?

Make sure the orders come in before we ship the beds.

Okay, please sign here.

It's finally up. Awesome.

- What? - Could you sign here?

- Sign? - Yes.

Gosh, I'm busy.

(Manager's signature)

Thank you.

Hello, this is Jang Kang...

Pardon me?

Who's calling, please?

Do you like ice cream?

Your mom is busy today.

Is your dad busy too?

Dad is gone.

I only see him on Christmas.

Did he go somewhere?

I live only with my mom.

Ah Young.

Mom.

She couldn't get in touch with you.

Did you get my text message?

Yes.

I took your time away from work.

- I'm sorry. - It's okay.

Ah Young speaks well. She's very cute.

You didn't complain, did you?

No, she was polite without crying.

Thank you, Kang Ho.

Go back to the office first. I'll be right in.

Okay, see you soon.

Kang Ho.

Yes, Ms. Cho.

I hope you won't tell the other coworkers about this.

Of course not. Don't worry.

- I'm sorry. - It's okay. See you.

Bye, Ah Young.

Come here.

What were you doing?

I was eating ice cream.

You did? What else were you doing?

- I was drawing. - Did you draw this?

It looks great.

- Did he buy you the ice cream? - Yes.

- Was it delicious? - Yes.

Ho Won.

Hello.

- Here you go. - Thank you.

What brings you here?

I came here to submit some documents...

related to the employees' health checkups.

- I see. - It's great to see you.

You too.

How's work? Is it fun?

I've never worked at an office. I wonder what it's like.

Didn't you say there are other new hires?

Yes, there are two of them.

It's quite special how we met.

If I tell you, you'll be surprised.

You won't believe how it happened.

Is that so?

How did you meet?

I'm curious as to what happened.

It's a long story.

Where should I start?

I see.

What is she doing at work?

Who is he?

What else?

This man...

seems like a headhunter.

- A headhunter? - Yes.

Between Mr. Park and Ho Won,

there's this man.

How did you find out?

He came to the office today.

- Please look into it. - Okay.

I will.

- Ho Won. - Yes?

- Take care of this. - Okay.

Yes, sir.

I can send you the manuscript by tonight.

Of course. It's almost done.

By when will the book be published?

These are the samples from Modern Goods.

These look great and similar to the photos.

(Order Contract)

What's this?

1000?

Did we order 1,000?

Yes, we ordered 1,000.

Have you lost your mind? This is so expensive.

Why would we order 1,000?

You signed the order form for 1,000.

What have I done?

What should I do? What was I thinking?

Is something wrong?

I was supposed to order half and make additional orders.

I must have signed without thinking.

There's only one cushion per bed.

Even if they sell out, it'll still be a problem.

Is there any solution?

They probably started manufacturing them.

Mr. Seo won't forgive this.

I've been nervous since he's been unhappy with me.

What should I do?

Just say it's my fault.

I'm just a temporary employee anyway.

I'll say it's my fault, so don't worry.

Gosh.

I must be out of my mind.

What?

- I'll do it. - Do what?

I'm more audacious.

I'm used to being scolded by Mr. Seo.

I'm the one who asked Ms. Ha if it was 1,000.

I'm responsible for not being more meticulous.

Can you handle it?

Mr. Seo is suspicious of you the most.

You can't get on his bad side.

Besides,

I'm not going after a full-time position.

Come in.

Ho Won.

What is this about?

I'm sorry, Mr. Seo.

We made a mistake when we ordered the cushions.

They sent us 1,000 cushions at once,

so we'll have a lot leftovers.

1,000?

Are you saying you made a mistake with the order,

and we'll be left with a ton of extra gift-with-purchase cushions?

I apologize.

I'll figure out what to do with the leftover cushions.

If it gets sold out, there won't be that many leftovers...

How?

- Pardon me? - How will you figure it out?

Well, I think... There will be an additional show and...

Do you think that's figuring it out on your own?

Well, I just meant that...

I thought we could use them again on the next show...

You're not actually sorry at all.

That's not true. I feel horrible about it.

Do you even know what you've done wrong?

I should've double-checked the order.

- I was careless. - At least you know.

You're out as of now.

Please leave the office.

Mr. Seo, does that mean...

you're firing me?

Don't you remember?

No mistakes are allowed.

If you make a mistake, you'll be let go immediately.

I won't let you stay in this office even for a second.

Yes, of course.

As far as I remember, you agreed to it.

But...

You'll receive a formal notice of dismissal. Please leave now.

How can this be so easy for you?

You wouldn't have made the mistake had you given your all.

Mr. Seo.

Sometimes, people have reasons that they must keep to themselves.

There are situations where you can't be all open and honest, okay?

Things aren't always what they seem.

So?

Because of those reasons and your situation,

does the company have to put up with the losses? Is that it?

Mr. Seo.

That's not what I meant.

I'm...

I'm very much bothered by your situation that you can't talk about.

Why would you do something you can't talk about?

You need to stand behind all of your actions. That's how you should work.

Promise is a promise, and I've clearly warned you.

I understand.

I'll quit, okay?

I'll leave the company.

Gosh.

Do you think that she got the job unfairly?

Is that why you were that harsh on her?

Wait, Ho Won. Ho Won!

Goodness.

Hey, wait. Just a second, okay?

You can't leave like this.

I'll tell Mr. Seo the truth.

I made a promise to him when I moved to the marketing team.

I had forgotten about it.

And...

I won't be able to stay here for that long anyway.

Don't be like this. I really want to get some rest.

You've done nothing wrong. Why are you...

Ki Taek is right. Let's try talking to him again. Please?

Don't worry about me, guys.

How obnoxious. Do you think you're that perfect?

Do you never make mistakes?

I just wanted to work, okay?

Can't you just let me work?

Seo Woo Jin!

To get you all right into a spring mood, we prepared...

our second home decor special.

Hauline's bedroom furniture.

It looks like Mr. Seo's strategy was right on.

All right. I guess he knows what he's doing.

I was hoping that he'd make a mistake.

The selling points were very clear.

Instead of throwing in freebies that customers don't even need,

he made the price competitive...

and included a discount coupon...

to encourage customers to repurchase our products.

Goodness.

You should leave for the day.

By the way, when will Mr. Park be back from his work trip?

I see that customers know when they can purchase...

good-quality products at great prices.

We're getting bombarded with orders here.

If you want to get this special deal, you should hurry...

because we only have a few sets left.

You need to place your order right now to purchase this set.

Let me repeat.

Right now, we only have a handful left.

(Almost sold out!)

- Gosh! - Yes, it's sold out.

All the units have been sold out.

We will be accepting...

no more calls.

This was our second spring home decor special...

brought to you by the renowned furniture company, Hauline.

I sincerely thank you all for joining us today.

Nice!

Mr. Seo, it's sold out.

Congratulations, Mr. Seo.

You wanted the after-work hours slot to reach the target audience.

It was the perfecting timing.

- Great work today. - Thank you.

Cheers.

I can't believe you bought beer. You're such a cheapskate.

I'm not stingy. I just don't spend money because I'm broke.

I didn't want to drink alone because it'd make me lonely.

Did something happen?

Hey, do you know of any part-time jobs that pay well?

I'm in a bit of an emergency.

Did you get fired?

Don't ask.

I have too much going on in my head right now.

Doing something physical is the best remedy at times like that.

I know of a job that pays 10 dollars an hour. Are you interested?

Really? 10 dollars? What is it?

Is this a pigsty or what?

It sure is a physically strenuous job.

How long will it take to clean all this?

(Rules for the Housekeeper)

This reminds me of someone.

Mr. Seo.

What is this? I didn't ask her to make food.

Why did she do something she wasn't told to do?

Oh, my. It's delicious.

Is there rice?

This housekeeper is very good.

Yes.

No, that housekeeper is very good at her job.

I'd like to stick with her.

Sure.

Did you fire Ho Won while I was away?

Yes.

Who said you can fire someone I hired?

I know you hired her, but she's on my team now.

You're the one who dumped her on my team.

Have you forgotten?

Mr. Seo.

You just made one success with the home shopping sales.

Aren't you being too conceited?

All right.

All right.

"I really enjoyed the stew. Thank you."

What a nice person.

It's pretty.

I wouldn't worry about the employees if they worked like this woman.

She has a good taste.

Hello? This is Hauline's Marketing Team.

Hi, I'm calling from Modern Goods.

- Where? - You ordered cushions from us.

You haven't made the payment for them.

May I talk to the person in charge?

Oh, maybe you're looking for Ms. Eun Ho Won.

She has resigned.

Ms. Eun Ho Won?

- It says her name is Ms. Ha Ji Na. - Excuse me?

Ms. Ha Ji Na signed the estimate and the contract.

(Q Home Shopping Sales in March 2017)

(Confirmation of Order)

(Person in Charge: Assistant Manager Ha Ji Na)

What is this?

It was Ms. Ha, not Ho Won?

What are they doing?

Our company's furniture is much better.

(Fashion Marketing, Principles of Marketing)

Hello, Father.

I just got home.

How are you?

All right.

North Korea test the performance...

of their missile with an additional engine.

Did I leave it down like that?

It seems like they tested its propulsion system.

It's possible that they will have a test fire in 2 to 3 months.

The world is so crazy these days.

This is the image of the missile North Korea has revealed.

It has four more auxiliary engines besides the main engine.

Does she think she is a superwoman or something?

What was she thinking?

Testing its performance means...

Does she think she is a blanket?

Why would she cover someone else's mistake?

Gosh, how annoying.

It's bothering me.

They successfully developed...

(Eun Ho Won)

What?

Who's in here?

What are you? Get out!

Get out of here! Gosh.

It's me.

It's me.

It's me, sir.

- What are you doing here? - It's me.

It's me, Ho Won.

(Radiant Office)

I got my job back.

You're making new history of temporary employees.

Ho Won and I are quite close.

How did you meet her?

Anyway, she and I are deeply connected.

Don't tell Ho Won about this.

This may be the last spring of my life.

I'm considering this as a free trip.

Prepare yourself and give it a try. Is it that hard?

What's wrong with her?

One minute, she's crying. The next, she's laughing.

It's late. I'll walk you home.

Thank you for walking me home today.

Do you like her that much? Let me ask you one thing.

I don't think...

I'll be able to sleep if I don't.
