[Unintentional Love Story]

I guess it's true that he was dismissed from his position.

That's too bad, it's only his second year working here...

What do you mean too bad. Employees are always just like their superiors.

[Ji Wonyoung General Affairs Team 1]

He works under Manager Kim.

Manager Kim?

Manager Kim of the General Affairs Team who was fired due to corruption in procurement?

I was like a robot around Manager Kim who could only ever say "yes" to whatever he said.

Honestly, does it even make sense that he didn't use Manager Kim?

Wonyoung!

I saw the announcement, what's going on?

Vice-manager Jung...

Tell me,

what's going on?

It's just that...

apparently Manager Kim told the disciplinary committee my name

and I really don't know what this is about

but

no one believes me.

What do you mean no one?

I'm kind of offended.

Why? Do you think I don't believe you, too?

Manager Kim is known for having bad rumors and behaviors.

Thank you for believing me.

But, what should I do?

I was just starting to work on what you asked for and then this happened.

Come on.

You can work on it after you return.

Don't worry about it

and get some rest.

Seems like everything is just a misunderstanding

so you'll be able to come back to work soon.

Thank you.

Don't worry about it.

Okay.

[Part 1]

Gosh...

drink.

Do you still believe the words coming from someone like that?

Why wouldn't I?

How could I have known that Manager Kim would do this.

Come on, no matter who it is, you should know how to reject them if it doesn't feel right.

You should also know how to lie sometimes.

So if someone steals my wallet, I should do the same to others, too?

No, I'm just frustrated because you're always the one getting blamed.

But, if you get fired like this

wouldn't it be hard to get a job at another place?

Someone who got fired for corruption...

who would want that?

Gosh... the feeling of helplessness is overwhelming.

I worked so hard to build my resume throughout university...

I still have my student loans to pay off... also my card bills!

Hey,

my dad's debt,

I paid it off with my employee loan but if I quit it means I have to pay it back right away, right?

Oh my god...

you're going to have bad credit.

Shit...

Hey, hey! Whatever!

You should go on trip first.

What...

You've been studying and working nonstop up till now.

If you continue this you're going to die.

Go and clear your mind.

You never know,

during that period the misunderstanding might get solved and you might get your job back.

Drink, let's just drink.

Shit...

Okay, I'll leave!

Come on...

Ugh...

are trips usually this difficult...

Ah...

I'm so hungry...

I came all the way here to Gangneung, do I have to eat convenience store ramen..?

Who is it?

Oh really? I'll head up right away!

Yes!

Oh you're here.

My husband caught it while fishing, but there's a lot so I wanted to share some.

You do like to eat sashimi, right?

Of course I like it, I can't get enough of it!

Thank you so much!

Enjoy your meal.

I will!

People are so generous here in Gangwon-do.

This is so nice.

Assistant Manager Park!

Wonyoung, are you doing well?

Ah...

I'm doing alright.

Have you maybe heard of anything about me?

No, not yet.

But I noticed you set up a password for your laptop

I'm taking over your work so...

You must have a lot of work to do because of me,

I'm sorry.

The password is written on the post-it

under the laptop.

There...

Oh, I found it, I found it!

Wonyoung, rest well and I'll see you soon!

Okay...

Take care.

Shit... Manager Kim! I should just..!

Damn it!

Oh!

Ugh...

What should I do...

I'm sorry...

Oh... it's alright, as long as you aren't injured it's fine.

Oh my god... that's my mom's favorite plate, the one made by the owner, that's my mom's favorite!

Oh my... where did she suddenly pop out from? Haha...

I'm so sorry... if you tell me where the shop is, I'll go buy a new one right away.

Ah... where is it...

Hello ma'am, I was wondering which way I should go to get to Youth Mall?

Ma'am, which way should I go to get to Youth Mall?

Hello!

No one's here...

Hm... it seems pretty similar...

Welcome.

Ah, hello.

Hello.

They don't have the same one...

Is there something

you are looking for?

Ah,

it's a wide plate and it's

blue?

Bluish? A type of blue?

Anyways, it was purchased here but I broke it.

Ah, it should be celadon.

You can pick from here.

Just give me whichever, it all looks the same.

Sir,

there is no such thing as the same plate.

Depending on the clay, sometimes extra silica stones are mixed in,

sometimes extra limestones are mixed in,

some are applied with more glaze, some less...

but you never know what it will look like before it goes into the furnace.

Only after it withstands the heat of the furnace,

will its unique color show up.

Sometimes the minerals change within the clay,

and create ones that shine like this one.

Wow...

There is no such thing as the same plate in this world.

Just like how every individual has a different way of getting through hard times.

Then...

I'll go with this one.

In my eyes, this one seems like the bravest one who overcame it well.

If that's the way you see it,

then that's the way it is.

I'll quickly package it up for you.

It's done.

Ah,

okay!

Ceramist Yoon Taejoon.

You must already know that he is the chairman's favorite artist.

You know the painter Yoon Seongguk, right?

Of course, he is the most famous painter in our country.

This is his son.

Wow... so he is a young master from a rich family.

Can I go look at some of his works?

But,

didn't he disappear suddenly two years ago?

Around autumn two years ago.

Ha... everyone was put in a tight spot back then.

It was right before the contract.

But why?

I don't know. It made you wonder how it is possible in today's world

to disappear like that without leaving any traces.

He was someone who didn't reveal much of his private life

so the only place known is his workshop in Icheon,

but he already cleaned it up beforehand.

There has been no talk about this lately,

but the chairman brought up Mr. Yoon again yesterday.

So?

What do you mean "so"...

We need to find him.

We need to find him.

Hand...

Ah... yes, I need to pay.

Here you go.

Thank you. Thank you!

Wow... Yoon Taejoon is hiding here?

Wait...

if this works out well,

won't I be able to get my job back?

Chair...chairman!

Are you...

the one who found Mr. Yoon?

Yes, chairman.

I want to give you a small reward

how is it, do you like it?

Chairman!

Chairman!

But,

while they couldn't find this place,

he's been hiding in a place like this..?

Why is he hiding to the extent that he's living under a mask?

Ah, nevermind!

It's not like I did anything wrong.

Yeah, I'm going to get my job back anyways.

Shit...

Ugh...

This favor,

I will pay it back for sure.

Vice-manager Jung!

I found Mr. Yoon Taejoon!

Oh my, did you really go and buy it?

Of course, I have to.

I picked it, but I wasn't sure if you'd like it.

I like it.

There's a lot of pretty plates there, right?

Is it famous?

It's well-known among young mom's in this area.

Rumors travel fast here.

It'd be even more famous if we could promote it on social media.

Oh... you're not allowed to promote it?

That's what I heard.

Plates, shop, the owner, anyways you're not allowed to film anything.

It's rare right? We offered to help promote it but got rejected.

Ah...

That's why they couldn't find it...

Listen carefully,

from now on Wonyoung you are responsible for Mr. Yoon.

Wait but...

isn't it enough that I told you about him?

Hey... we need to find out the reason behind his hiding

that way we can have the upper-hand when we sign the contract.

I don't think that's morally right to do...

What does this have to do with morals?

We're just trying to make things smooth for the company.

Usually when artists fall into a slump and disappear,

they need someone to help pull them out.

Have you never thought about helping Mr. Yoon stand back up?

That may be the case but...

Wonyoung,

right now Taepyeong needs someone honest and sincere like you.

You need to come back to work.

Or are you just going to keep spending time like this?

You remember that our chairman's wish

is to have an exclusive contract with Mr. Yoon, right?

If you do well on this case,

do you think all you will gain in return is getting your job back?

Do you think the chairman will only give you such a small reward?

From now on,

find out as much about Mr. Yoon as possible.

Anything that you are capable of doing,

do it all.

Understood?

Yeah,

it's not like it's a bad thing to sign a contract with our company.

Let's do this.

Welcome...

Sir, I'm back again!

Feel free to look around.

There aren't any other workers here.

Do you not need

a part-timer?

No.

That's too bad! There aren't a lot of talents like me...

I'll come back again!

Oh?

Welcome~

You're a bit late.

Yeah, I came from the workshop.

Do you want extra shots?

Yes.

Oh? The owner of Moon Jar?

Wow, what a coincidence..!

What is it?

Sir, do you really not need a part-timer?

If you had a part-timer, the shop could have stayed open right now.

I don't need one.

Okay...

What?

Who is that?

Why do you keep talking about a part-time job?

I don't need to get paid, you can just give me chores to do...

Sir,

if you keep doing this,

I'm going to get mad.

Haha...

I should head back to my store...

Sir, you should leave, too.

I'm...

My name is Ji Wonyoung.

I am 27 years old and searching for a job.

I graduated from a pretty good university but I haven't found a job yet.

I came on a trip out of frustration,

and was inspired by what you told me about plates last time.

You told me that every individual has their own way of overcoming hardships,

and that got me thinking how maybe I am also just in that process.

While thinking about this,

you could say that I gained courage,

or that I learned something about life's philosophy.

Anyways, it made me want to stick by your side

to see more and learn more.

You said your name is Ji Wonyoung, right?

Yes!

Please leave.

Pardon?

It's not working on him... not working.

It's true that I was inspired though...

These oranges are incredibly sweet and tangy today! Please try it, it won't disappoint~

We have sweet and tangy oranges!

We also have chestnuts. Roasted chestnuts!

Chestnuts are on sale~ on sale!

Ma'am, excuse me but

do you know the owner of Moon Jar on the second floor?

Moon Jar?

That's our pottery teacher.

Ah~

He's a bit careful

and hard to approach.

He doesn't talk to the people in the neighborhood...

But he's very good looking~

Right, he's good looking.

Haha yes.

His friend?

Wow, wow!

Wow!

Wow even latte art..!

I told you I did a lot of part-time jobs at cafes during university.

I can't believe a talent like you has been hiding in our neighborhood...

Okay, pass!

Can you start working right away?

Of course! What should I do first?

We have fresh fruits~

This is really good~

Oh! Wonyoung!

Oh! Fruit auntie!

What's with the apron?

I got a job at the cafe on the second floor.

If you want some coffee, call this number.

Oh that's good! I'll order often!

Please do!

Okay~

Oh my, it's late. You should hurry and deliver these!

Have a nice day!

Okay~ You got this! -I got this!

So what's in there?

Brother... you scared me...

Let's go eat.

Okay.

You're in big trouble now.

Why?

Once you try the hangover soup here,

the one's at other shops will taste horrible.

Oh~ so the food here is good.

Incredibly good.

Auntie! I'll have two bowls of ox bone hangover soup!

But...

why do you want to work at Jooheon's shop?

Nevermind,

some day you'll tell me yourself.

It's because of a situation going on.

It's definitely not something bad though.

Okay.

You know before you came,

Cha Jooheon would only talk to me?

He's been here since...

You scared me!

You're so noisy.

Do you pay rent here?

Enjoy your food.

Auntie, when I ordered earlier he wasn't here for sure.

Why is my mom your auntie? Are you my cousin?

Hey! Aren't you going to call me brother?

I would come here every day but I come once every two days because of you okay?

This obsession with the word brother...

I already told you I will bow down if you didn't come here at all.

God that little...

Let's hold it, hold it.

You were talking about how long he's been here...

Ah,

he's been here for around two years already

but he never talks about anything personal.

It doesn't seem like he has any relatives here either.

How should I put it...

he's a bit hard to approach at the beginning?

I see...

Let's eat.

Okay!

It's late, why are you here?

You worked for a long time this time.

You only rested for what, three days?

What are you doing?

What?

Ah,

did you see?

Wonyoung started working here since yesterday.

What are you trying to do?

Hm... job creation?

Hey, I barely got by the deficit this month.

Even if I want to start delivery services, I need another worker to do so.

But then,

as if it were destined by God, a job seeker shows up right in front of me!

Why wouldn't I use him?

Plus, he's a fast worker and knows latte art!

I thought he was Picasso.

Thanks to him, sales have been going up.

I'm back!

Hey Wonyoung~ you're back?

Great work!

I'm not interested.

Alright, thanks for the encouragement.

Please take care of me in the future!

I hope there won't be a need for me

to take care of you.

Don't think about it too much. He's just a bit distant that's all.

Oh? He left his syrup here.

Brother! I'll go and give it to him

Wow... he's so fast.

He's not here...

Oh?

It's Monthly Art.

Sir.

What do you need?

You didn't take your syrup with you.

Just leave it there and leave.

Are you not leaving?

Excuse me but...

are you mad because of me?

Could you maybe let me off the hook?

What was that?

My bad, I was making sure of something.

Wonyoung you're also interested in pottery?

I do have interest. But for that guy, not pottery.

Sir!

What are you doing?

No way, did you drive Wonyoung here after class?

What is this unrealistic feeling?

Cafe part-timer?

I guess your girlfriend this time is the strong type?

I told you to not touch me.

But... why do you want to know so much about Cha Jooheon?

Well, did you find out anything special?

Oh? Cloud moon jar?

Then this is Yoon Taejoon's house?
