(Episode 3)

Dad, can you stop running the arcade?

Why?

You don't make a lot of money, and it's too loud.

I don't think it's too great.

Do you think I do this to make money?

Then why do you do this?

I've taken up manual labor,

worked at a market, and everything else,

but this is the noisiest job I had.

When I stay in a place where it's always noisy,

it helps me to not think about your late mother.

Are you not allowed to think of her?

Why do you have to forget her?

Do you think it's great to remember something for long?

It's the most painful thing.

After she passed away,

all the things I did wrong began to come back to me.

I need to...

...erase her from my memories so that I can keep living.

You can't understand this anyway.

When you become as old as me and think of this moment...

...you'll finally realize what I meant...

...by what I just said.

If you don't remember, just forget it.

My gosh, man.

I told you to get some rest.

How will you focus on work with so much to think about?

I won't have to think if I stay in an arcade.

What? What kind of nonsense is that?

Our next operation has been decided.

Gather all of our team members.

Did you make a decision?

Let's play a round of game.

What?

We're going to Joybuster.

Wait.

Goodness.

You're going to take on Joybuster?

Why did you suddenly change your mind?

People tend to change their minds.

You were one of us?

I'm not a deity.

Wow, you're taking it that way?

You're definitely one of a kind.

We have no time. Tell Mr. Kang to bring me all the documents...

...for the intensive and focused solutions.

What? Mr. Kang is about to quit.

He's probably busy handing over his duties to

Mr. Song.

Did he already quit?

He's still getting paid by us.

Tell him to put everything together and have it ready by today.

I doubt he can finish it by today.

I wouldn't have hired him if he couldn't do that much.

That's why he ended up quitting because he got sick of this.

Then you can make him feel better.

Go.

Yes, fine. As you wish.

Enjoy.

Son, why do you look so gloomy?

No idea.

It's because of that pretty young lady.

Come on, Mom. It's not like that.

Really?

It's just that unemployed people periodically get depressed.

Right, the pretty young lady asked me

to give something to you.

What? What is it? What is it?

Here it is.

This.

Come on, Mom.

Are you having fun teasing me?

So get a job and go back to Seoul.

You need to reach for the stars to take the star.

Getting a job is way harder than taking down a star.

Don't say that.

Gosh!

Come in.

Did you put everything together?

Yes, right here.

You're doing your job perfectly fine.

Why are you quitting?

I'm sorry that I'm quitting so suddenly.

TK Electronics does pay more than us.

I understand why you're leaving.

It's not just because of money.

Mr. Ahn...

Mr. Kang, you're done already?

We have to give you a farewell party.

What kind of a farewell party...

...are we going to throw for a person

who's abandoning our company?

Are we celebrating? Or are we cursing him?

He's right here. Don't make him feel bad.

And I wasn't talking to you.

Let's grab a drink, okay?

Okay.

Why are you here?

Oh, right. I have fresh resumes...

...of the candidates who will replace Mr. Kang.

The Human Resources Team screened them twice already.

You can just take on the interviews.

I told them to stop screening people

just by their qualifications on paper.

Wait! Even if you pick out a random person,

everyone has these qualifications nowadays.

People who fall below that don't even apply.

Ouch! Gosh.

Man.

Yes, this is the director of Division One.

Send me every single applicant's resume.

Yes, everyone's.

Why are you doing this?

Do you want Human Resources to have no work to do?

How many companies did you apply to until you got a job here?

Me? I applied to...

I'm not asking the guy with connections.

I'm asking someone who underwent a normal application process.

Including a few head hunters who called me...

...about 30 companies.

And the result?

I got called back from at least half.

Wow, you have a great success rate...

...thanks to your qualifications.

I applied to all 269 financial companies...

...that are under the management of the Korea

Deposit Insurance Corporation.

And only one place...

- ...our company called me back. - Really?

The competition was too high for an inexperienced guy...

...with a GED to jump in.

It's very unlike you...

...to be so harsh on yourself.

You must have gnashed your teeth after you got your job.

"I can't believe no one recognized my potential.

I'll get my revenge on those companies

who rejected me."

I don't have such narrow-minded thoughts.

I'm sorry.

Hey, Mr. Kang.

He wouldn't have told us this story if it were something

ordinary like that.

I'm sure he'll tell us a dramatic conclusion

that shows off how great he is.

Listen up.

"If I rise to a powerful position,

I will not put away the ladder which I have climbed up.

I'll leave it around so someone who has

a background like mine can climb up again."

Bravo.

That's noblesse oblige.

I haven't come to my conclusion yet.

Then we'll be on standby.

A blind open recruitment?

We say we do that to avoid public controversies.

Look.

This is the reality.

Why do we ask for their experience if we're hiring a new recruit?

And experienced employees like you with many qualifications...

...move from this company to another

and raise your salary by many times...

...making it harder for everyone.

If a person has many things on their resume...

...it also means that the person can

always go work in another place.

You played a part in that culture.

I'm sorry.

Gosh, you're so nice to a guy who's about to leave.

Forget it. You may go.

Goodness.

Don't be disappointed about what he said.

Yes.

Once I put that through the Ahn Dan-te translator...

...it says he doesn't want to let go of you,

whom he considered like family.

I know. I've worked with him long enough.

Goodness. He must be lonely.

He had to say goodbye to his family.

I'll take care of that guy.

After work, let's go...

Okay.

- Is it on you? - No way.

This is our company sign.

I said it was okay to take it down.

Who said you could break it?

Thanks anyway.

You really seemed like my bodyguard.

Gosh.

Why did you let her go like a fool?

Goodness. Darn it.

(Director Ahn Dan-te)

I wanted to put to my major to use...

...and decided to apply for a management position.

(Applicant: Kwak Han-cheol)

Liberal arts?

This is a huge challenge for someone who is timid like me.

But I've made up my mind...

...and I'm ready to face any and all difficulties.

You!

Yes.

You do have the courage to face your enemy.

He's probably going to get angry at me

for touching his stuff.

Hey, behind you! Behind you!

Okay, good.

What do you want?

Why aren't you coming to school?

How long will you stay home?

I'm not in the mood to go there.

Stop talking nonsense and come, okay?

What? Hey, I'm hanging up.

(Attacks the enemy in a specified direction, additional damage for low HP)

Darn it, that guy had to call...

...at an important moment.

(Nexviper's New Game Hits the Gaming Industry)

I only see articles on Nexviper.

That's the advantage they get for holding their launching show.

People who do well will always do well...

...while we get our booth taken away.

The office is quieter than usual.

It's the calm before the storm.

Anyway, Ms. Shin must be really tired.

She won't wake up.

Leave her alone. She needs to relieve her fatigue.

Who put together the updates?

The Server Team is making a fuss because the map data is missing.

Ms. Shin handed it over to the Design Team.

It might be because a few people who were working on the map quit.

Ms. Shin, wake up.

Ms. Shin!

Ms. Shin.

Hey, Ms. Shin!

What's wrong? Are you okay?

Ms. Shin!

She must have been stressed out when she went there.

I understand why she's so tired.

She probably felt helpless as she tore down the booth.

Yeon-hwa.

Goodness, Yeon-hwa.

Hello, Mr. Shin.

What's wrong with her?

She never even catches a cold.

You don't have to worry.

She's just suffering from fatigue. She'll be fine in a few days.

I see. Anyway...

...is your company doing okay?

I heard there's a lot of work.

You don't have to worry about that at all.

Our company just went down...

It doesn't go down to an unethical level

to make someone who's ill work.

I'm sure you're probably short on people.

After your company was sold...

...I heard many people put in their request

for voluntary resignation.

Oh, you knew?

She doesn't hide anything from me.

Oh, right.

Why didn't you wear gray that one time?

- Pardon? - She recommended that you wear...

...something gray on your blind date,

so she was really disappointed...

...to see you in yellow.

Right.

I'll make sure I let her choose what I wear next time.

Well, it's not that easy to find another chance.

Anyway, Mr. Shin. We'll get back to work.

Sure, you should go.

I'll help her recover and send her back to work too.

- Thank you. - Sure.

Okay.

Goodness.

What's the big deal about your job, anyway?

Dad.

Oh, yes. Are you okay?

Why did you say that to Ms. Yeo?

My gosh.

What's your problem?

You're home.

Oh, I was going to clean up, but I forgot...

What if you don't make a mess to begin with?

They say, humans leave traces wherever they go.

I'm human too.

I didn't live with Father because I hated it when

he said that.

And not because you hated my mom?

Let's stop discussing family stuff.

Did you go to school?

I did.

If it's too far to travel, you can change schools.

If you used my computer, you can fess up now.

Oh, right.

I had to check my email.

I used it for a little bit.

How did you find out the password?

I just typed in whatever that came to mind,

and it was correct.

You typed in "GDISPS486NS486XBOX486"...

...randomly?

Yes.

I'm just really good at guessing.

I just used your computer, that's all.

I won't use it from now on.

This is my last warning.

Do not touch my stuff.

Okay.

I'm sorry.

(Shadow Helper)

(Recycle Bin)

I can't do this.

If I beat this level, I can get to the bonus round.

Yeon-hwa, can we play just one more round?

We can't.

It's too late.

We have to go home.

Dad is waiting for us.

Do you love playing games that much?

I'm going to grow up and make all the games

that I want to play.

Really?

If you behave well, I'll make the games with you.

Really?

No, she can't.

Your sister doesn't have the skills to make a game.

"Wouldn't it be fun to make a game like this?"

She just has very simple thoughts in her head like this,

and everything ends right there.

She writes up a useless proposal...

...and stays satisfied for her entire life.

That's your sister.

That dream again?

This time, it changed a bit.

What?

Darn it.

He even came into my dream.

(Check-in Center)

Yeon-hwa.

Did you get home safely...

Come on, man. She left ages ago.

Yeon-hwa.

Are you busy?

I just thought of you...

...as I was hanging out.

My gosh, man.

You're so pathetic.

Goodness.

(You passed the first screening of Yuseong CRC recruitment)

An interview?

My gosh!

Mom! I took down a star!

Mom! I got the star!

(Personal transfer graph of each department)

(Seoul Station)

Wow, the smell of my hometown.

Goodness, fine dust.

It's great.

This is great.

Hello?

Why are you absent from school again?

Are you my teacher?

Why do you care?

Yes, I'm your teacher.

What now?

Yes, sir.

Yes.

I still...

...can't believe this is real.

Yes.

I'll be there tomorrow.

Yes, I'll hang in there.

What?

Why won't it turn on?

Why did you bring that to work?

None of your business.

You have interviews this afternoon.

The chairman told me to make sure that you pick out someone...

...who will work for you for a long time.

I'll pick out whoever I want, so do not come in.

I don't want to. I'm a busy man too.

Goodness, you must have lost so much energy.

Let's get you some herbal tonics.

Sleeping is the best medicine for me,

so I feel much better after getting some good sleep.

You should get some for yourself.

You're my tonic,

so I can't live without you.

I'll go get you some tomorrow.

What's the bestseller nowadays?

The list of bestsellers are right there.

The list changes day after day.

I see.

The console game industry is at war too.

Aren't you hungry?

Should I order some soft tofu stew for you?

Yes, with fried eggs.

Hello.

Hey, long time no see.

Did you skip school?

Did you skip work?

You're right.

Hey, a new edition of this game came out.

I also want the full equipment for VR games.

You already got some last time.

They all got burnt up.

Burnt up? Why?

Things happened.

I'll take the same set.

Can I get my name engraved on the body?

Since you're one of my regulars,

I'll do that on the house.

You can't get it exchanged or return it

once you have it engraved. Is that okay?

Yes, of course.

You just want "Hun" engraved like last time, right?

Yes. H, U, N.

Delivery.

- Thank you. - Enjoy.

Hun, do you want to eat?

It's okay.

You can go ahead.

Hey.

What's this?

Oh, that.

Hey, isn't that awesome?

I knew you would find that.

I love the color.

How much is it?

Doesn't it look pretty pricey?

It's 250,000 won.

Is this made with real brass?

Yes, of course.

It's gold-plated. The manufacturer put out only 100 of them...

...to celebrate their 10th anniversary.

Wow.

I have to get this.

Is it your birthday or something?

I want to spend the day like it is.

Can you ring me up?

Sure.

Can I get this engraved too?

Sure thing.

Then I'll pick it up later.

Here.

The Situation Management Team from Joybuster

will be here this afternoon.

Did we get a part of the front money?

Yes.

We got 2.24 billion won.

Wow, they got a lot.

Of course.

It's the best land in the middle of Gangnam.

Of course, anyone would want that.

Open up the servers that were stopped from the default.

And process the overdue paychecks as soon as we get the

rest of the payment.

- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.

Give me that file.

All right.

But once we take care of those urgent problems,

I doubt we'll have enough money to work on the new business.

It's 1.46 million won.

What?

Really?

That little?

What?

Wait, what's wrong?

That little brat.

(The lady's son)

Mr. Ahn!

(The mister's son)

Darn it.

Hello?

What's this?

"This"?

The 1.46 million won.

You told me to buy daily necessities.

At a game shop?

It's a necessity for me.

You can make the situation better...

...if you turn yourself in before I call the police.

My class is about to begin.

I'll tell you about it later at home.

Where are you right now?

I'm a student, so I'm at school.

I'm on my way.

If you aren't there, I will kill you.

Gosh, darn it!

Where are you going? The interviews are about to begin!

1.46 million won.

1.46 million won.

(Taxi)

Sir, I'm sorry, but can you go a bit faster?

Please, a bit faster.

If you're in such a hurry,

you'll probably get there faster if you run.

What?

What am I going to do?

(Speed Quick Delivery)

[Kplus Asia Ver] MBN / DramaX E03 'Level Up' Ripped by Yuri4ever@Subscene -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

Thank you, sir.

(Speed Quick Delivery)

(High School)

I said I'd kill you if you weren't at school.

What's with you?

I'm at school.

Are you in a gym class all by yourself?

Arms! My arms!

You said I can use it when I need to.

Since when did gaming machines become a part of daily necessities?

Man! You're going to break my arms!

If you use money however you wish without prior consent,

it's called misappropriation and embezzlement.

It's theft. Do you get it?

Will you please let me go before you go on?

It's not like this is a capital offense.

Don't you think you're a bit too much?

No.

It's the second item in the Code of Ur-Nammu

of the ancient nation of Sumer.

"A thief...

...shall be killed."

Spare my life!

Please spare my life!

What's that idiot doing over there?

Stanley Hall said this is a time of storm and stress,

a stormy period of adolescence.

Freud said kids are stressed out because of excessive sexual energy,

so it's normal for them to show abnormal behavior.

Therefore, I do understand why you behaved in such a way,

that you had such an impulse.

I'm way past puberty.

Don't treat me like a kid.

Do you want me to treat you like an adult?

We're both human beings.

If you want me to press criminal charges,

I will do that.

Hey.

What's with you?

Hey.

What are you doing over there?

I'm glad you're here. Arrest him.

I'm a security guard here.

Arrest whom?

Sir, can you stop him?

What's wrong?

He came all the way to school to do this...

...just because I used a credit card.

A credit card?

It's my credit card.

Ahn Dan-te. That's me.

You little thief.

You need to put him upside down and make him run with his head.

He won't get a hold of himself like that.

Sir!

Forget it. You can go to class.

- Thank you. - Sure.

You little brat.

Darn it.

Goodness!

You!

Man.

Darn it, seriously.

The joysticks aren't doing so bad either.

I thought they wouldn't sell because they're too expensive.

Goodness, what do you know about the fanatics who love

collecting things?

Dad.

Should I start working here?

Goodness.

You can go make a living for yourself.

Fine.

This is Hun's stuff.

Give it to him when he comes.

I'm going to the support center, so look after the shop too.

- Okay. - Okay.

Dad!

Can you stop doing that?

I can't seem to let go of that habit

because you do that too.

Goodness, then you can eat neatly without getting

things on your face.

Goodness.

I'm not a kid anymore.

Yes, Ms. Yeo.

Oh, I got discharged in the morning.

Thank you.

Oh, really?

The new CEO?

Ms. Yeo, I'm sorry,

but I'll call you back right away.

Okay.

Hello.

Hey.

Having some soft tofu stew after you ruined my vacation?

How did you know I was here?

Did you come looking for me on purpose?

Did you snoop around behind my back?

I don't have that much time on my hands.

I came to cancel the payment that was just made.

What did you buy from us?

Something worth 1.46 million won.

Oh, okay.

No, it's okay. I can deal with this.

Okay.

Hey, I'm sorry,

but I can't give you a refund on this.

Even if I just changed my mind, I can get a refund...

...or an exchange within 14 days,

says the Consumer Protection Law.

That's true.

But he had the items engraved.

Look.

H, U, N.

Hun. Right?

If you can check the initials on the gaming machine,

why didn't you check the name on the credit card?

This is definitely a mistake of the seller.

He's one of our regulars, so we just trusted him.

The joystick was already engraved with his initials too.

No one else can use that anymore.

Please be considerate of our side too.

The problem is that you sold these to someone you shouldn't

have sold it to.

I want a refund.

I mean, you can't return something like this.

Do you cancel your order...

...of black bean noodles when they started cooking already?

I only eat spicy seafood noodles.

That's not my question.

He paid for it with a stolen card,

so if we take it up with the police,

you will have to cancel the charges.

Then what about our loss?

There is always a risk in running a business.

You have to live with it.

I see.

You're doing this on purpose to get revenge on me, aren't you?

Aren't you getting your revenge on me

by refusing to give me a refund?

Why would I get revenge on you?

I told you that I would take responsibility

for the aftereffects of your head injury.

But what happened next?

You meddled in my business at the event.

Don't you think you've gone overboard?

That was a coincidence.

Right, more like planned revenge.

The instigation of a head butt seemed more like planned revenge.

Five seconds ago,

I just told you I would take responsibility

for your head injury.

Six seconds ago, I told you that it

was a coincidence.

And I had my own reasons to butt in at the event hall.

Oh, your own reasons?

What are they?

I'll tell you later.

What are you talking about?

Are you saying you're going to come here again?

Let's stop wasting each other's time.

Please give me the refund.

That is all I want.

Goodness.

So this is your conclusion.

"I don't care...

...if someone else suffers a loss."

I finally get why the problem of no-show customers is...

...so prevalent in Korea.

This is a completely different problem

from no-show customers.

Fine.

Give me your credit card.

I will give you a refund.

But if you're going to ask for a favor,

you need to have some manners.

Don't just consider your own feelings.

What is it?

Let go.

I wasn't asking you for a favor.

I was exercising my right.

Are you picking a fight?

No.

I'll think of a way for everyone to win.

Then you can finish your soft tofu stew.

What was that?

He's insane.

What a relief.

Goodness.

(Interviewers)

Man.

(Kwak Han-cheol)

(Interviewers)

Goodness, he said he wanted to hire someone himself,

but he won't even come in.

(Interviewers)

Okay, let us begin.

I'm here to ask questions on the ideas that you have,

so don't feel pressured,

and be at ease as you speak.

- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.

One thing you say can determine your acceptance or failure.

Do not regret anything, and give me your best answer.

Hey, you...

(Interviewers)

Mr. Kim Il. This is your interview. You need to control yourself.

Oh, yes.

I'm sorry.

What?

He's not Kim Il. His name is Kwak Han-cheol.

If he understood, that's his name.

(Interviewers)

Anyway, why'd you get here so late?

You should be setting an example. I can't believe you were late.

I got here right on time.

I don't need you anymore. You can leave.

The chairman told me to sit here with you.

Okay, why don't you introduce yourself

to relax a little...

I saw your resumes. We can skip that.

(Interviewers)

And we will skip over that.

I will ask you one question.

You have one opportunity, so answer carefully.

- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.

Why are you making them nervous?

Let them relax, okay?

All right.

Here is the question.

How can you make this guy leave the interview room?

What?

That's your question?

How can they...

...make me leave this room?

I will give you five minutes to think.

Let me know if you want to go first.

If you succeed, I will let you know right away that you've been hired.

Yes, sir.

Let us begin.

Excuse me.

I have something to tell you before we begin.

What is it?

I'm sorry for making such a huge mistake before.

I apologize.

Do you think you were wrong now that you see me

in a position...

...where I can hire you or drop you?

No.

I wanted to apologize back then...

...but I couldn't find the right timing.

This is also the wrong time to do that.

Do not bring personal matters into an official situation.

I'm sorry.

To be fair, I will deduct...

...five points from Mr. Kwak before we begin.

(Choi Moon-soo)

(Park Kyung-ae)

You have five minutes.

Isn't this the question you prepared?

"The super vision of an effective restructuring...

...and the background"...

If they know a way to get rid of a nuisance like you,

this isn't even a problem.

(Interviewers)

Excuse me.

May I ask a question about our question?

No.

Do it. Go ahead.

This wouldn't be an interview if you aren't allowed

to ask questions.

Do you actually want this person to leave,

or do you want to avoid sharing a table

with someone who is behind him...

I said I will not take any questions...

...to see if you have a grasp of the intention of the

question as well.

You have three minutes left.

(Choi Moon-soo)

(Park Kyung-ae, Kwak Han-cheol)

What are you doing here?

You were on the field wasting your time...

...instead of coming into class before.

Dong-pil.

Do you have any money?

Do you want to hit the snack bar?

No.

A real estate office.

What are you saying?

Goodness.

I knew that he'd probably be a fogy...

...but I had no idea he would be this bad.

Who? Your older brother?

He's not my older brother.

We're just family on paper.

I don't know what's going on...

...but I'm sure you're in the wrong.

Forget it.

I don't need you either.

What was that?

(Interviewers)

If you wish to go first, go ahead.

Yes, Ms. Park.

Okay.

What's this smell?

Don't you smell something burning?

(Interviewers)

Goodness, there must be a fire out there.

What are we going to do?

What are we going to do now?

I think there's a fire.

There's a fire. It's a fire!

There's a fire!

Ms. Park.

You're burning up with desperation.

No way, there's a fire out there.

You can't just sit there.

Come on, you have to leave.

You have to go now. Hurry.

You can't just sit around.

There's a fire out there. You have to go.

Good work.

Why won't you budge when I said there's a fire?

I already know it's fake.

There's no smoke,

and the fire alarm didn't go off.

Right.

Then may I have one more chance?

Your chance is up.

You may leave.

I'm sorry, but I didn't know.

If you could give me one more chance...

No.

You should have told us before.

What kind of an interview is this?

Forget it. I'm not doing this.

I can't believe this.

(Interviewers)

You two.

If you do not like the question,

you may leave now.

(Choi Moon-soo)

I will give it a try.

Yes, Mr. Choi.

Begin.

Do I really just have to make him leave?

Yes, sure.

You can try.

(Yuseong CRC)

Excuse me.

Mr. Ahn!

Wait, security!

Security!

Goodness.

What's going on?

Sir, please help me.

What's with you?

Mr. Park?

What's wrong with you?

Put him down immediately.

He's an assailant and abductor in action.

You can hold him down immediately.

I will call the police.

Oh, no. It's not like that.

This is part of the interview.

Put him down, will you?

My goodness.

Come outside.

- Come outside. - Wait. Wait a second.

Great work.

That's the end of your interview.

- What is this... - Mr. Choi.

Let me ask you a question.

Did you mean what you just did, or were you just faking it?

Fake...

Of course, it was real.

If it was, you should have stopped the guard. Why did you stop?

This security guard has nothing to do with the interview.

We must deal with things that are unheard of...

...when we do our job here.

What?

Great job.

What kind of nonsense is that?

Man, this is driving me insane.

Goodness!

(Yuseong CRC)

(Yuseong CRC New Recruit Interview)

That could have been dangerous!

My gosh, you shocked me.

Goodness.

Hey!

(Kwak Han-cheol)

Mr. Kwak.

Yes?

You may begin.

Oh, right.

This is getting me kind of fired up.

Okay. You can try to make me leave.

I do not know what I am capable of.

Because...

...I never thought hard or made a lot of effort...

...to do something in my life.

I never thought getting a job was

a huge deal in life.

Whenever I needed money...

...I went to look for a gig at a labor agency.

One day...

...I went to tear down an event booth

for a game company.

That's where I came across the same game company's employee.

I destroyed their company sign without thinking too much...

...but the employee began to empathize with the sign...

...and cried her heart out.

She looked so cool to me...

...because of the love she showed for her company.

What she was feeling at that time was

something that I have...

...never felt in my life before, and I began to wonder.

I also wish to feel a love for my company...

...just like her.

The love of a company.

The chairman loves that phrase.

I don't have the power to drag you out of here.

And to be honest...

...I'm a coward.

So I look very obvious because of my racing heart...

...if I try to come up with a lie.

So...

...there is nothing much I can do right now.

So are you saying...

...you're going to give up?

No.

I want to ask him for a favor.

- A favor? - The only thing that I can

do right now...

...is to ask you for a favor.

(Interviewers)

Sir, could you please step outside?

I ask of you.

You know what? I'm really sorry.

Mr. Ahn right here...

...makes my life more tiring than you.

I know.

I know that you don't have to do it...

...because I'm asking you to do this

only to get a job here.

I know I may sound brazen, but let me ask you one more time.

Please help me out this once.

I will not forget what you did for me.

I ask of you.

(Interviewers)

Great job.

The interview is...

It's not...

...over yet.

(Interviewers)

I mean, I can't be the villain here.

He's the real villain.

I'm not sure if this is the right way to hire someone.

(Kwak Han-cheol)

Mr. Kwak.

Come to work starting tomorrow.

What?

Oh, okay.

Thank you.

Thank you!

You really hired him?

I didn't hire him.

You chose him.

Thank you! I will do my best!

Yes! This is amazing.

Yes! All right! Yes!

What happened?

I knew it.

Well, I know. I knew you would do that.

Are you all right?

I've always been okay.

Have a safe trip back home.

Man, how can I face you, Mom?

I'm not going back to Busan.

You...

...made it, didn't you?

Mom!

My goodness, great job.

That's my son.

You wouldn't lose against anyone.

Of course not. I'm your son.

Goodness, I wish I could give you a hug.

Turn around to face Busan!

Give me a high five!

Yes!

Oh, my goodness.

My nose!

- Goodness. - Mom, I'm hanging up.

Darn it.

I'm glad I hired you.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

You return my goodwill with an attack?

Hey, just you wait.

Darn it. Mr. Ahn!

What am I going to do?

Darn it.

Man, this is bad.

(Gimpo Go Club)

People say that you end up playing the worst move after

thinking too much.

You know that, don't you?

An easy way out.

That's a move you play...

...to make things look easier to avoid complicated changes.

You get a result that clearly shows the black and white.

How did you know I was here?

There are only a few places you go to.

When I called your house...

...your wife let out a huge sigh.

So I knew you were here.

You're the only one...

...who still looks for me.

We're going to have a new CEO starting tomorrow.

Really?

I'm sure they will do a better job than me.

I felt bad for getting angry at you...

...without realizing that...

...it was your last day at work.

Hey, kid.

Don't feel bad about that.

You aren't the type to bottle up your feelings.

I am too.

Really?

Then I shouldn't have hired someone like you.

Right?

I have no idea why you hired me either.

Why did you hire me?

Why did you apply to our company?

I wanted to work at a game company,

so I did my research to find out where I can apply to.

I applied to every single company that was hiring.

Joybuster was one of them.

So it doesn't have to be our company?

That's right.

It doesn't have to be.

Oh, I see. Then...

...while you work for our company...

...if another company offers you a job

with a better environment and salary...

...you might end up going there.

If the environment was better and they offered more money...

...who would turn that down?

I think it'd only be logical to go work there.

I see.

That was a pretty fishy question.

You don't seem to have a lot of love for our company.

Let me tell you this for all the interviewees.

It's good to be honest...

...but you won't get a good score if you talk like that...

...somewhere else.

I haven't started working here yet...

...so I've had no time to feel any love.

It's impossible for a couple to fall in love...

...without meeting first.

Well, that's true.

My mother met my father for the first time on

their wedding day.

She's way over 70 now, but she has been

demanding a divorce.

She said things like,

"This guy fooled me, so I lived my entire life in vain."

Goodness...

(Joybuster New Recruit Interview)

Right.

Do you like games?

Of course.

I'm crazy about them.

Which game do you love?

A go game.

Of course.

You can't work for long if you aren't crazy for games.

I started this company because I went crazy too.

I took my entire savings which I kept around

for my wedding...

...since the time I began to date my wife...

...and signed a contract for a tiny little office.

That's when my wife hit...

...the seventh bone of my neck...

Mr. Jo?

(Joybuster New Recruit Interview)

Let me ask one final question.

We may be a game company where we can freely

share our thoughts,

but you may receive an order from above

for something you must do.

What would you do if the CEO gave you

the wrong order?

Well.

I...

I shouldn't have hired you then.

What did I say?

Did I say I'd fight back?

"I don't think you would give me the wrong order."

I see.

I had no idea it was just lip service.

I just hired you right there, trying to look cool.

It wasn't lip service.

I still trust you, Mr. Jo.

Hey, you got me.

Black, 75. The easy way out.

So you want to make a move to end the game easily?

A scrimmage isn't for me.

Yes, that's why I trust you.

I'm sure it was the best choice you could make as

you faced difficulties...

...in managing your company.

Don't you feel frustrated?

You're free to go wherever you want to.

You're home.

- Since you bought it, just use it. - What?

Stop installing weird things on my computer.

I will give you a refund.

But if you're going to ask for a favor,

you need to have some manners.

Don't just consider your own feelings.

Just apologize and put an end to this.

What?

Other than circumstantial evidence, do you have any hard evidence...

...that they plagiarized your idea?

It's the same as my idea.

What other evidence do you need?

Who else other than you would know that?

I think I explained everything.

You should stop here and apologize.

Why do I have to apologize when I didn't do anything wrong?

(King's Coffee, roasted sweet potatoes, toast)

(Computer Academy)

My gosh.

Hey, Hee-jung.

Ms. Shin.

What brings you here so early?

I'm sorry to ask you to do this,

but I'm here about the map.

I told you that I can't do that.

I quit my job there. How can you expect me to work?

Then can you at least give me the original design as a guide?

You drew that.

I threw that out.

What?

How could you throw that out?

I had too much on my mind to keep that around.

No, what I meant was that...

...you should have handed your duties over

to another person before you left.

Hello.

I'm sorry,

but please stop coming to see me.

I don't want anything to do with Joybuster from now on.

Wait, Hee-jung.

Goodness.

See? I told you she wouldn't do it.

Tell Ms. Yeo that we have to hold a meeting to

edit the whole thing.

Gosh, never mind.

I'll just figure it out myself.

Okay. Where are you?

I'm on my way. Why?

Everyone is gathering around to see the new CEO coming to work.

Really?

I'll grab a taxi and be there right away.

Hello.

I'm CEO Ahn Dan-te,

and I will take charge of Joybuster as of today.

There will be many hardships from now on.

Goodness!

You may get more discouraged than you are now.

I'm sorry!

You will have to sacrifice way more than yesterday.

I'm sorry.

But I do promise you one thing.

I promise to save Joybuster.

There will be more frustration and sacrifices...

...to fulfill that promise, which we will take on as well.

I believe most people fall into despair

not because of the impossible,

but because of a possibility that they have not realized yet.

Is the CEO the one who's speaking?

Yes, but he's not one of our people.

Then?

This.

Oh, really?

We need you more than anyone else to save this company.

Not bad.

Do not be shaken when you are faced with storms and typhoons.

Joybuster?

I'm going to kill you, really.

Just apologize and put an end to this.

I came to cancel the payment that was just made.

Ms. Easy-work?

Please trust and follow us.

Wait.

Did I get cataracts?

This can't be right.

My service to you.

- Our service to you. - Our service to you.

Oh, my gosh.

(We thank Ryu Seung-soo for his guest appearance)

(Level Up)

- Our service to you. - Our service to you.

Oh, my gosh.

Hey, Yeon-hwa.

Han-cheol, why are you here?

We need to get possessed!

He's setting up the super general

shareholders' meeting.

Let us begin our meeting.

Wait, you don't like games?

I can at least win against you.

Please sing a song, Mr. Ahn.

- Mr. Ahn. - Mr. Ahn.

- Sing a song. - Sing a song.

I don't think this is right.

Do you make such decisions this easily?

If you do not like the company...

...you may leave anytime.

As of today, all of the projects of every single department...

...will be stopped.
