(The first shoot of the new year at a studio in Nonhyeon-dong)

(The studio is busy preparing for a shoot.)

(The studio is busy preparing for a shoot.)

(12pm, Kwang Kyu's arrival)

Hello.

(12pm, Kwang Kyu's arrival)

I won the Top Excellence Award.

(Taking out)

Thank you.

(He gives everyone a lottery ticket to celebrate winning an award.)

- Oh, my. - Thank you.

(When he won an award at the 2025 Entertainment Awards)

(I'm sorry that I can't say each person's name.)

- Thank you. - I hope you win the top prize.

I hope you win the top prize.

Where are the staff members? Did you get one?

- Thank you. - Win the top prize and quit work.

Thank you for your hard work.

(He delivers the New Year blessings with the message of gratitude.)

Thank you.

- Hello. - Hello.

(12:05pm, Seo Jin's arrival)

Hey, why are you sucking on a lollipop?

My throat is dry.

(For some reason, he comes to work looking happy.)

Seo Jin, you too.

(Happy New Year.)

Congratulations on winning the Top Excellence Award.

(Congratulations on winning the Top Excellence Award.)

Hello.

- Are you the manager? - I'm the manager, Lee Jung Min.

Hello.

This is the schedule of the day.

You know today's My Star, right?

I know her very well.

I know her very well, so...

I feel at ease.

I practically raised her.

We're close.

(Did Seo Jin practically raise today's My Star?)

You have a list of actresses who handle you roughly.

Where does My Star rank?

She ranks second.

Everyone knows who ranks first, right?

Han Ji Min.

(Today's My Star rivals Han Ji Min as Lee Seo Jin's natural enemy.)

Today's My Star is different from Yu Mi and Ji Min.

If they're like a younger sister,

My Star is like a niece.

(The vibe of a younger sister versus the vibe of a niece)

I think I'll be busy teasing him.

I'll either tease him or get teased.

(Today's My Star is very close to the secretaries.)

(My Star, Park Shin Hye)

Miss Hong.

(She's back with "Undercover Miss Hong.")

(The actress who doesn't disappoint, Park Shin Hye)

(With the retro office comedy,)

(she'll play another character of the lifetime.)

(Today is the day of the promotional photo shoot.)

That's good.

(She'll show a couple's chemistry with Ko Kyoung Pyo.)

Today is the day of the photo shoot.

From time to time, please monitor the photos...

and check her appearance.

It'll be great if you can check her outfits and accessories as well.

Shin Hye does things well on her own.

That's right.

After the photo shoot,

she'll attend the agency's New Year's party.

What?

(The agency's New Year's party?)

(Let's go, 2026, people like seasoning.)

Here.

(In the evening, My Star will attend her agency's New Year's party.)

There'll be a draw at the New Year's party.

It's an event where employees can win prizes,

so the prizes have been prepared.

Please set them up when you reach the location.

Please take good care of the employees of the agency.

Shin Hye is good at something like this.

She prepared big gifts for the staff members...

when we had an afterparty.

Please set them up.

(Peeking)

Didn't she bring the coffee machine for me?

I bet it's for me.

(I bet it's for me, not you.)

(With high expectations,)

- Please take good care of her. - Okay.

(they go to meet My Star.)

It's cold.

(Feeling cold, Seo Jin hurriedly enters the building.)

Where am I?

(Looking around)

It's near the place I lived in back in the day.

Seriously.

I should've bought an apartment back then.

(I should've bought an apartment back then.)

(Meanwhile, My Star is...)

(Clearing her throat)

My throat was so swollen when I woke up this morning.

Did you go to the hospital?

I couldn't.

- Since when was it like this? - It happened this morning.

(My Star isn't in the best condition.)

Hurry up. I need to get rid of my double chin before they come.

- You are so funny. - Here.

She wants us to wait until she gets her base makeup done.

- Does she want us to wait? - She wants us to wait.

Let's just go.

Let's just go.

(Can we go in?)

Go in. I don't know.

(He goes straight despite the instruction.)

- Yes? - Shin Hye.

(Hi. Shin Hye.)

Shin Hye.

- You don't need makeup. - Seo Jin!

- Why wait for the base makeup? - You should've waited!

(She's happy to see him.)

- I don't need to wait. - Hey.

(I'm here as well, Shin Hye.)

(Kwang Kyu!)

- Makeup will get on your clothes. - Hey.

(Opening the door)

Can they film you without makeup?

- No! - Hey.

- I can't believe him! - She's an actress.

- Hey. - Why would you open the door...

- when my face is bare? - Your skin is great.

- Your skin is great. - No.

We need to protect the actress.

That's right. Protect me.

- You're prettier without makeup. - We need to protect her.

- You're prettier without makeup. - Seo Jin.

- That's right. - You're here to work today, right?

- Hey. - You're here to work today, right?

It's the last shoot, so I don't know what will happen.

You need to work harder since it's the last shoot.

I have no strength.

- Kwang Kyu doesn't disappoint. - Hey.

- He's protecting me. - Of course.

She's prettier without makeup.

No. Wait a second.

- Hey. - I need to wear the base makeup.

Okay.

- Please wait. - Okay.

Wrap things up.

(Let's meet after the base makeup is done.)

Didn't you film dramas with her?

I know her well since I filmed dramas with her.

(You're a great senior!)

(Be more specific.)

(Which part?)

(In 2014, they met through "Pinocchio.")

You could play golf with this.

(In 2025, they filmed "The Judge from Hell" together.)

(She has known Kwang Kyu for over 12 years through work.)

How do you know her?

Did you see her here and there?

She was on "Three Meals a Day."

"Three Meals a Day."

She's crushing it.

(From the first meeting,)

(Shin Hye boasted her incredible skills.)

(Auntie is good.)

(Eating)

- How is it? - She should be a regular.

(Seo Genie liked her a lot.)

Shin Hye, can't you come again?

(She became Seo Jin's favourite junior that day.)

Come often, okay?

I thought you met her before that moment.

Our friendship continued on...

after "Three Meals a Day."

(Seo Jin and My Star remained friends after "Three Meals a Day.")

I even know her parents.

- Personally? - Yes.

Her parents run a restaurant, right?

- Then... - I went there often.

I went there with Shin Hye once.

Didn't you attend Shin Hye's wedding?

No. Did you?

Of course, I attended her wedding.

Why wasn't I invited?

(Very upset)

She invited many people. I guess you didn't get included.

(Seo Jin is teasing Kwang Kyu.)

- I'm sure she forgot. - What?

She probably knew that I rarely attended weddings.

I'm worse than you.

I'm surprised that you went.

Shin Hye and I are really close.

I practically raised her.

(I practically raised her.)

Seo Jin said that he practically raised you.

(Snorting)

- Me? - Yes.

- He said that. - He didn't raise me.

Did he buy you many meals?

He bought me many meals.

He bought me tasty food.

He taught me golf.

But back in the day when I played golf, he said,

"You're strong."

"You should've been a professional golfer."

He said that a lot.

You were unsure if it was a compliment or a criticism.

That's right.

I don't know. He's here as my manager.

I caught a cold today,

so I'll need to send him to a pharmacy.

I'll need medicine.

(She plans to ask for his active assistance.)

(Peeking)

You aren't wearing long johns.

- Are you wearing long johns? - Yes.

(The temperature was 10°C on the day of the shoot.)

Seriously.

I was so cold during the last shoot.

I trembled so much.

I rarely wear long johns.

When you go to the sauna,

you can tell the difference between old people and young people.

- What is it? - Whether or not they're wearing...

long johns is a telltale sign.

Whether or not they're wearing long johns is a telltale sign.

Do you know how many old people in Korea...

I'm old too.

That's why I don't wear long johns.

I want to avoid appearing old.

(Young Fifty who doesn't wear long johns to avoid appearing old)

You can come in now.

I'll go and see if she needs anything.

(Slurping)

(Unmoving)

We worked too hard last time.

It didn't suit the purpose of this show.

(It didn't suit the purpose of this show.)

That's right.

Mr. Nam Jin was highly satisfied.

(My Star of last week)

We should've made Mr. Nam Jin...

feel gratitude for his actual manager.

I feel like...

(Unlike the purpose of the show, My Star was highly satisfied.)

(Next time,)

(I'll make sure My Star feels it.)

(I need to show My Star...)

(why this is My Grumpy Secretary.)

And Shin Hye won the lottery.

I'm too bothered.

(I'm too bothered.)

Shall we avoid going to her side today?

What?

(Carrying out the purpose of the show)

I don't want to get up.

Seo Jin!

(My Star calls them.)

Kwang Kyu!

(Sighing)

Yes, My Star.

(Caretaker Fairy reluctantly goes to Shin Hye.)

- My Star. - My captain.

My Star.

(Shin Hye is happy to see him again.)

Do you need anything?

- I caught a cold. - Okay.

My throat hurt so much this morning.

Please go to the pharmacy to get propolis.

I need some propolis candies.

Why did you come in alone?

- Seo Jin is too bothered. - That's ridiculous!

I'll make Seo Jin do all the work today.

- You... - You should get some rest today.

- Should I bring Seo Jin? - Yes.

- I'll bring Seo Jin. - Why did you come in...

- alone? - Seriously.

Seo Jin should buy what I need.

That's right. You tell him.

Seo Jin! Where is he?

Seo Jin!

Shin Hye is coming.

Should I go to the restroom?

(He gets a sense of foreboding.)

(He gets up.)

- Seo Jin! - Seo Jin!

Shin Hye, do you want coffee?

(He tries to get out of the situation.)

- What do you think? A cold? - I caught a cold.

I caught a cold, so I can't drink anything cold.

- Really? - Yes.

You should go to the pharmacy first.

- Pharmacy? - I really need propolis right now.

Let's go to the hospital instead.

- Well... - Let's get an injection.

Where will I get an injection?

We can go to a nearby ENT clinic.

- For now... - Let's get an injection.

For now, I'll need to spray propolis.

Okay.

You can get it at the pharmacy.

- Let's go, Kwang Kyu. - What? Go alone.

I'll assist her here.

I need one person here.

What? I don't know...

- if I'll be able to park the car. - You need to walk.

Walk?

This is a residential area, so there won't be a pharmacy.

- You'll find one. - No way.

- Well... - Shin Hye,

- keep getting your makeup done. - I'll do that.

It's 150m from here.

- You're right. - Here.

It's a short walk from here.

Didn't I bring my coat from the car?

(Didn't I bring my coat from the car?)

(I was going to go out,)

(but I don't have a coat.)

(It's cold, so I don't want to go out.)

Haven't you set off yet?

(Haven't you set off yet?)

Seo Jin is cold.

He doesn't have his coat.

- It isn't like that. I'll go. - Why do you need a coat...

- when you'll take your car? - No, I'll walk there.

- Will you walk there? - It's nearby.

- I heard on the grapevine... - Okay.

that you worked so hard,

and strayed from the purpose of the show.

- Could it be... - We stray from the purpose,

and we recruited you.

- Is that so? - Okay?

We need to go back to our initial resolution.

- The initial resolution? - Yes.

You need to give it your all.

We'll give it our all to go back to our initial resolution.

- No. - We'll do our best so that...

you can feel incredibly grateful for your actual manager.

- My actual manager? - Yes.

I already feel incredibly grateful for her.

- I already feel that way. - Okay.

Shall I lend you my coat?

That's right. Lend him your coat.

- I saw a lot of clothes in there. - What?

I saw many padded jackets.

- Will it fit? - What?

- It's a designer item. - It's Acne Studios.

It fits perfectly.

It's small. Are you sure it won't burst?

Let's go.

- Did you borrow it? - What?

- It's mine. - It fits perfectly.

- It's Shin Hye's. - See you soon.

Shin Hye and I wear the same size.

The size...

(Have a nice trip to the pharmacy.)

Hey, I guess Shin Hye wears oversized clothes.

(Fascinated)

(It's very warm.)

He wore my jacket.

He wore my jacket for the trip.

- Did he leave? - He wore my jacket for the trip.

(My Star finds the situation funny.)

He wasn't leaving because he didn't have a coat.

- Was he cold? - He was cold.

(She's fascinated by Seo Jin's way of thinking.)

I didn't have anything in the pockets, right?

(I didn't have anything in the pockets, right?)

(He zips up the jacket upon feeling the cold wind.)

(He searches the pockets right away.)

Kwang Kyu, do you want to roll your hair?

- Why do you have it? - It was in the pocket.

(A hair roller appears.)

- Have you ever rolled your hair? - Roll it!

- Have you ever rolled your hair? - Roll it!

(Annoyed)

Do your best to roll it.

(It's like an experiment on static electricity.)

Roll it well.

It'll be very cute if you put it in your hair.

What? I can't put it in my hair!

He can't put it in his hair.

(Men whose average age is 56.5 enjoy playing with a hair roller)

- He's driving a nail in the coffin. - Seriously.

(Feeling anxious, she calls Seo Jin.)

- The person you're trying... - For goodness' sake!

to call is unavailable.

Come on.

My goodness.

Why doesn't he pick up the phone?

(Why doesn't he pick up the phone?)

Are there candies as well?

- Candies? Propolis candies? - Yes.

Show them the propolis candies.

(The managers are working hard at the pharmacy.)

- Are these better? - Yes.

And...

- what else is good for the throat? - What?

- What else is good for the throat? - The throat?

- Yes. - Well...

(Seo Genie is busy getting better medicine.)

Ryukakusan.

No, it's for phlegm.

- Is there something else... - It's a call from Shin Hye.

- for the throat? - The throat?

My Star.

- Kwang Kyu. - Yes?

Why does Seo Jin keep screening my call?

Why didn't you answer her calls?

- My phone is on silent mode. - Really?

(It's on silent mode.)

I have a cramp in my neck.

I can't use pain relief patches.

Right.

For now... What was it called?

(She needs another medicine for the cramp.)

- A muscle relaxant. - A muscle relaxant.

- Yes. I need something like that. - Okay.

Okay, Shin Hye.

I think these will be enough.

(They're relaxed since this is their 16th celebrity to look after.)

- We'll get these. - Do you need a bag?

- Yes. - Yes.

- Hello. - Is it for here?

No, it's to go.

Hot sweet lemongrass tea.

And... Let's get one more.

Is Fruit Dream a tea?

Yes.

Please make it hot.

(Seo Genie prepares two cups of tea.)

- Those two, please. - Two cups of tea, right?

Yes.

(After the quick order,)

(they get a short break.)

(Glancing over)

Do you want to eat again?

No, I was just looking.

(Before Kwang Kyu who has some free time...)

(are baked goods...)

(of every colour...)

(and shape.)

(His mouth waters.)

Wouldn't Shin Hye like this?

Aren't you the one who likes it?

Aren't you?

- Women... - Kwang Kyu.

Women like baked goods.

(Shall I buy some for Shin Hye?)

What do you want to get?

(What do you want to get?)

These two?

(Seo Jin picks soft scones.)

Which ones would you like? You can tell us.

Irish butter scone.

(List of baked goods: Irish butter scone)

- Blueberry butter scone. - Okay.

Get this one as well.

(He pushes for the item he likes.)

I'm curious.

Dark chocolat.

(Kwang Kyu's pick, Dark chocolat gets added.)

We'll take those.

(His pitch was successful.)

- Thank you. - Thank you.

- Have a nice day. - Have a nice day.

(With their hands heavy, they go back to My Star.)

Will I go 1st? Will we go as a couple 1st?

- You will go first. - Will I go first?

(The concept of today's photo shoot:)

(Modern styling that's based...)

(on the straightforward and bold silhouette)

(It's hard to understand,)

(but My Star is as atmospheric as ever.)

(My Star is as charismatic as ever.)

(Her main job mode comes on.)

(Once My Star wears contact lenses, her transformation will be over.)

(Oh, my!)

(A contact lens falls out.)

He's back.

(It isn't easy to wear contact lenses.)

Throw this away.

Shall I put them in?

Are you good at putting in contact lenses?

I'm good at putting them in, but I'm bad at taking them out.

You need to take them out yourself. You'll get hurt otherwise.

- Here is your medicine. - Okay.

- Thank you. - Here is your medicine.

- Take your pick. - Okay.

There are a spray and candies.

Shin Hye, there are...

- two types of tea. Drink both. - What are they?

One is lemon tea and the other is fruit tea.

Thank you.

I'll use the spray first.

Spray?

(She uses the throat spray first.)

(Thanks to the secretaries, her condition improves.)

- Hello. - Hello.

Hello.

- He's my manager. - Hello.

(Smiling shyly with his dimples)

(Caretaker Fairy monitors the photo shoot.)

(She loves it.)

(The last outfit check is over.)

Let's begin.

(The look in her eyes changes.)

(She poses naturally to the atmosphere.)

That's good.

(She poses naturally to the atmosphere.)

You look cool.

(Artistic photos pour in.)

Can you raise one hand?

(She does exactly as she's told.)

Okay.

(The actress with 23 years of experience is relaxed.)

What you did just now was amazing.

(She keeps getting the best shots.)

How pretty!

(How pretty My Star is!)

How nice!

(With the secretaries' support,)

(the photo shoot is going well.)

It's a chic smile.

- I'll hold it for a while. - You know...

(Thank you.)

It's good for the throat to keep it wet.

(He stays close to take care of her.)

- Can we use the cup as a prop? - What?

- What? - Can we use the cup as a prop?

Come on out!

(Kwang Kyu, come on out!)

(Embarrassed)

I thought they were getting a couple's shot.

Okay.

(Not a couple's shot, but a shot with a cup)

(She gets her makeup touched up again shortly afterward.)

Would you take a photo of them?

All right.

Like that?

(He gets a couple's shot thanks to Seo Jin.)

They need to turn on the light.

You don't need the light.

- It's too... - His forehead reflects light.

- That's right. - Like this?

(He gets photos taken with My Star.)

(Opening his eyes wide)

Let's do it once more. In 1, 2, 3.

(He shyly covers his forehead.)

Move now.

(Caretaker of love)

- You look so cool. - Just now... You look so cool.

That's nice. Good.

(After clicking 1 time,)

(they exclaim 1 time.)

She's really good.

(A dazzling moment from her main job makes the shutter go crazy.)

How cool.

(Right then, he spots someone?)

- Have you been well? - Yes.

Why did you dye your hair yellow?

- Just for a change. - I see.

- It wasn't for your character? - No.

Have you been well?

(He has met Kwang Kyu before too.)

He dyed his hair just for a change,

- not because of his character. - Oh, really?

After the last shoot, I did it in that evening.

It takes several hours to do that.

It usually takes one and a half hours.

I thought it took longer than that.

It might cause hair loss.

- Don't dye your hair too often. - He's right about that.

Harsh chemicals can make you look like Kwang Kyu.

- Right. - All right?

(What a scary warning.)

You shouldn't do it after 40.

It can weaken your scalp and cause hair loss.

(It's such realistic advice.)

(It's time for Shin Hye to change her clothes.)

These pants...

Seo Jin, are you good at sewing?

Hey, come on.

Would I be good at that?

Why?

Please adjust the length for me.

- These pants? - Yes.

Please adjust the length for me with a safety pin.

- These pants? - Yes.

(She requests an alteration?)

(Earlier during the photoshoot)

(My Star had trouble posing because of the long pants.)

- Use this seam as a reference... - I see.

and shorten the pants by triple the length of the seam.

Are you good at sewing?

Of course not.

I don't think I can even thread a needle.

I specialise in sewing.

- I'll give you thread and a needle. - You do?

I'm an expert at sewing.

- Then you two can work together. - Really?

- I... - I'm counting on you.

It will be fun.

Can you even thread a needle?

- Can you even see it? - My gosh.

You should thread a needle for me.

- You have better eyesight than me. - But I...

I can't see things up close either.

(Looking at it from a distance)

Why did you say you could do it when you can't see well?

I need to unwind it first...

That's the end of the thread.

- Exactly. Where does it start? - I said that was the end.

(Unwinding the thread alone is hard for him.)

Find the starting end of the thread for me.

(He tosses it to Seo Jin in the end.)

(He's not doing it so differently.)

Hey, that's the end of the thread.

Why are there so many ends?

My point, exactly.

(Grumpy Secretaries can't make any progress.)

Ask Shin Hye to do it.

(He gives up.)

She's on the younger side. We can't see it.

I'll go and ask Shin Hye to do it.

(They failed to unwind the thread in the end.)

(Meanwhile, My Star is enjoying a sweet snack.)

It looks delicious.

(Meanwhile, My Star is enjoying a sweet snack.)

Have a bite of each.

I'm so hungry.

(Amazed)

Shin Hye, you have good eyesight, right?

I can't find the starting end of the thread.

Hold on a second. I need thread nippers.

- I think this is it. - Right.

(She uses thread nippers right away.)

Just cut it anywhere, so I can use it.

Just anywhere.

Right. That's good.

There you go. Thank you.

I knew I could count on you.

I knew it.

Because she's on the younger side.

- Did she unwind it? - Yes.

How did she do that?

- Can she see it? - I think she can.

She cut it with thread nippers.

All right. Hold on a second.

(Now he has to thread a needle.)

Here.

Gosh. I can't even put this through the eye.

Can't you see it?

(Pausing)

- I can't even see this clearly. - Gosh.

- Put the thread right through it. - What?

- Put the thread through it. - Here?

- Yes. - Right through it?

- Right through the eye? - Put it through.

Yes.

(Looking at it from a distance)

I can't even put this through. Then how can I do that?

I'm even struggling to put this through.

- Kwang Kyu, this is... - Yes?

(It's the only thing that they have in common.)

Just put the thread...

(Ageing eyes)

(They're trying to sew with invisible thread and needle.)

Wouldn't it be better to go to a dry cleaner's?

No.

I'm good at sewing.

How do you sew when you can't see things clearly?

(Doubtful)

(It's hard to believe, but he successfully threaded the needle.)

Looking at it alone makes me feel queasy.

(Where did the time go?)

(It's the self-acclaimed sewing master's turn.)

Where?

I'm Surgeon Bong Dal Hee.

(Giggling)

He's talking nonsense again.

(The medical drama, "White Lies?")

(Kim Kwang Kyu, the lead sewist)

(Specialty: White lies)

(Lee Seo Jin, the assistant sewist)

(Note: Severe ageing eyes)

(He learned how to sew during the military training.)

(Serious)

(He swings the needle in the air.)

(I knew it.)

Why would you try to put it through? You didn't even tie a knot.

- It doesn't have a knot? - No.

(After the first stitch, he kept sewing in the air.)

This is driving me nuts. This is crazy.

It would've been faster if we went to a dry cleaner's.

(His vision suddenly becomes cloudy.)

Why is my vision so cloudy now?

- Is it not bright enough in here? - That's right.

It's not our fault.

It's so dark in here. Let me make another stitch here.

(It took him a long time to make the second stitch.)

(Uneven and sparse stitches)

Are stitches supposed to be this far apart?

Of course.

(The space between the stitches is as wide as the Honam Plain.)

It doesn't have to be accurate.

I thought you were actually good at it.

But you're doing it sloppily.

She'll wear it just for a while anyway...

You could've fixed it with safety pins.

But I'm sewing it instead.

I'm not...

I'm not slacking off.

- What will you do about this? - What?

It won't be seen.

It won't be seen.

(It won't be seen.)

Who in the world sews like that?

"Who in the world..."

Would you consider it skillful?

I thought he was actually good at it.

- Oh, boy. - Right?

I could do a better job than that.

I think I can do a better job than him.

Now that I'm 60,

I can't see things clearly.

- It's not visible. - I said...

we should go to a dry cleaner's.

It would've taken too long.

(Goodbye, my sewing skills.)

- Manager Lee, by any chance... - Yes?

Can you be a substitute for a while?

(The photographer asks him to be a substitute for Kyoung Pyo.)

Can you please sit next to Ms. Park?

- So that I can... Right. - She wants to check the angle.

Please pose with her just once.

Thank you.

(My Star has requested to be a substitute model.)

(He poses right away.)

(As a matter of fact, the thing about Seo Jin...)

(He has done a lot of fashion photoshoots before.)

(He's doing his main job, which is rare to see on this show.)

We should...

We should match our leg poses.

(The chic siblings)

(With an indifferent look)

(Looking away)

I'll take it. One, two. Testing.

Oh, what? Why...

Why are you posing so great?

(My Star's compliment makes him smile with dimples.)

(Seo Jin shows off his posing skills after a long time.)

His outfit...

suits the concept of the photoshoot.

I think he knew it.

I didn't know about the shoot.

Really?

- You didn't know my work schedule? - No.

We're not informed of it. That's how it works.

Can you look at the camera this time while you're at it?

One, two, three.

(He didn't know about the shoot, but he was already ready for it.)

I was very surprised.

He struck poses so professionally right away.

I thought, "He prepared for this."

He prepared himself for the shoot.

He knew he would have to pose for one photo, at least.

I knew that he knew he'd pose in front of a camera.

As soon as he sat on the chair,

he struck a pose like this.

It looked like he had prepared for it.

Oh, Kwang Kyu.

Can you please sit here?

- Me? - Yes.

(Seo Jin looks frosty as Kwang Kyu appears.)

We'll take some photos as a test.

- As a test? Sounds great. - Yes.

Thank you.

(They look away from each other as if they had planned it.)

- Oh, that's great. - They look good together.

It's good that they don't look at each other.

- That's great. - Right?

(This one photo can describe their chemistry.)

Okay. Look at the camera.

(As My Star joins them...)

That's great.

Good.

(Thanks to My Star, they got a family photo.)

- That was good. - It was different.

(My Star got changed for the next shoot.)

I have a fever.

- Oh, you're right. - Oh, no.

(My Star's condition started getting worse.)

I hope it's not the flu.

(The bread that Grumpy Secretaries bought for her)

Why don't you have a proper meal and take medicine?

(Worried)

A meal?

(The medicine bought by Grumpy Secretaries)

It will probably make me sleepy.

(The medicine bought by Grumpy Secretaries)

(As the photoshoot continues, she takes medicine.)

Before that, I had a headache,

and I had the chills too.

Unintentionally, I was...

I couldn't keep a poker face...

because I was really sick.

This time...

Shin Hye, please step forward a bit.

Kyoung Pyo, please stand behind her.

Stay close to each other while posing, please.

And then we'll use a chair.

(The photoshoot continues while she's feeling unwell.)

- Your hair suits you well. - You mean, the blond hair?

- You look great with blonde hair. - Indeed.

(Happy)

I wish I had bleached my hair too to match the hair colour.

I didn't have time for that.

He looks dashing.

Let's begin now. One, two.

(Let's begin now. One, two.)

(Oh, my. You look gorgeous.)

That's great.

(Shutter clicking repeatedly)

(She's posing with Kyoung Pyo without showing her pain.)

(Despite her condition, she created the perfect outcome.)

That's amazing.

- It came out great. - Shall we use a chair now?

- Yes. - They look great together.

Don't we have it?

(The photoshoot is coming to an end now.)

Please sit here...

(At that time, Kwang Kyu is organising the needle and thread.)

(Surprised)

Gosh, the smell of gimbap...

is so strong.

(Looking around the box)

(Whose gimbap is this?)

(It doesn't say whom it belongs to.)

Who threw this away without finishing it?

(Putting it in his mouth)

(Impressed)

(It'd be a waste of food if I leave it.)

(Approaching)

(He'll have another kind of gimbap this time.)

(He's shopping for leftover gimbap?)

(It's tasty.)

(That was a satisfying meal.)

- What are you eating? - I didn't eat anything.

- What are you eating? - I didn't eat anything.

You're chewing food right now.

Why would you lie to me?

- I was just cleaning up here. - What?

- There was a piece of gimbap... - You ate gimbap someone was eating?

I ate it just to throw away the box.

Why are you hiding to eat food?

- Have you eaten, Kyoung Pyo? - I'm embarrassed.

- No, to prevent facial swelling. - Really?

Why isn't there a trash bin?

(He uses a trash bin as an excuse to run away.)

Goodness. I feel most comfortable here.

(Glancing)

(Something catches his eye again.)

(It's gimbap that someone left.)

(Gimbap follows Kwang Kyu around?)

- Shin Hye, did you eat it? - The scone was so good.

- Really? - Yes, it's so delicious.

We have a few more flavours.

You should eat some.

- What's this? - What?

Oh, I think I know what this is.

This one is for Kwang Kyu.

Kwang Kyu wanted to have this.

(He emphasizes it again.)

(Taking it away)

(Seo Jin is the only person who takes care of Kwang Kyu.)

The gimbap will go bad at this rate.

Who left gimbap like this?

- You'll finish it anyway. - What?

- Well... - Right?

- It's okay. Give me just one. - I mean... Someone left gimbap...

(He took the leftover gimbap naturally.)

Someone left gimbap...

Here you go.

(He puts it down indifferently.)

Why would you keep eating food someone else was eating?

Wasn't there a fresh box of gimbap?

It's a waste of food.

(He puts back the gimbap where it was.)

Kwang Kyu, you can have...

- Have that one. - What?

We bought that one for you.

I'm craving something with rice.

(I'm craving something with rice.)

(The staff members come toward Kwang Kyu.)

(The owner of the leftover gimbap appears.)

Nothing. Please go ahead and eat up.

- Would you like something to drink? - No, I'm fine.

I could've been in trouble.

(I could've been in trouble.)

(He would've been humiliated if he had eaten the gimbap.)

I thought she finished eating.

(I thought she finished eating.)

(He suddenly feels embarrassed.)

I'm embarrassed.

(His ears turned red.)

I thought someone threw it away.

I was so surprised.

I felt apologetic, ashamed,

and embarrassed.

It's weird that I feel hungry whenever I record this show.

Once I become a manager, I feel hungry.

She's coughing too, right? Isn't Shin Hye coughing?

(He's worried about My Star who's not feeling well.)

(Clearing her throat)

(Clearing her throat)

Drink both.

Okay. I'm drinking it.

I have a fever.

- You have a fever? - Yes, so I took the medicine.

- A fever reducer? - This one...

reduces a fever too.

Let me look at it.

(The medicine bought by Grumpy Secretaries)

You should go see a doctor.

- I will, after the photoshoot. - Later...

Let's go to a hospital before eating. Okay?

You should go see a doctor now. All right?

- I should go see a doctor. - You even have a fever?

I have a mild fever.

Oh, gosh. Hey, you...

This is why you get sick.

(Worried)

I think you're coming down with a cold.

I think so too. It's been cold in the past few days.

Oh, gosh.

You really should go see a doctor.

I think I should go see a doctor.

Let's finish the photoshoot first.

When I woke up this morning,

I thought I just had swollen tonsils.

But then I developed a fever.

And my vision was suddenly blurry.

I couldn't hide how I was feeling because I was so sick.

I was worried.

(My Star's photoshoot continues.)

(She looks even worse than earlier.)

(Without showing her pain,)

(she continues doing the photoshoot.)

- She seems really unwell. - Right.

- Indeed. - You stepped on it, didn't you?

She wouldn't say she's sick unless it's serious.

(Both are worried.)

(Flopping down)

Shin Hye, you're looking even worse. I'm worried.

You should go see an internist.

You're feeling unwell. It's not just your throat.

- Do you have a fever? - Yes.

- Oh, no. A hospital... - I think I should go see a doctor.

You should go see a doctor?

Is there a hospital nearby you go to regularly?

They always have a lot of patients.

It's best to find a nearby clinic.

I'll look for a clinic.

- Thank you. - Don't mention it.

I think she has a flu.

It's a flu.

She should go to a hospital first.

We should take her to a nearby hospital. She needs an injection.

She has a fever.

Her body temperature must be around 38°C.

(Clearing her throat)

(Coughing)

(Her cough gets even worse.)

Since I knew how it felt when you had those symptoms,

I said we should take her to a hospital.

I go see a doctor no matter what.

I go see a doctor even when the symptoms are mild.

I went to see a doctor three times last week.

That's why I got better quickly.

It wasn't serious, but I went to see a doctor for three days in a row.

(He trusts hospitals a lot.)

What kind of doctor does Shin Hye need?

She needs an internist.

- An internist? Why? - Yes.

She has a sore throat. She needs an ENT doctor.

But she has flu symptoms and a fever.

(It's quite logical.)

You find an internist. I'll find an ENT doctor.

(Searching)

I'll call this clinic.

(I'll call this clinic.)

(He calls a nearby clinic first.)

Thank you for calling.

Hello.

We have a patient here. Can she see a doctor right now?

- She seems to have a flu. - She has a fever too.

We don't treat patients with a flu.

- Then... I see. Thank you. - Thank you.

Thank you for calling. How may I help you?

Hello.

Can we see a doctor without a reservation?

We have no patients waiting for examination at the moment.

- Oh, I see. - Good. That's great.

Actually, we're filming the show "My Grumpy Secretary" right now.

Can we have a shoot there...

You can't film in our clinic.

We can't?

- No. - I understand. Thank you.

Well... I hadn't even finished my question.

- I mean... My voice... - She sounded cold.

Maybe your voice sounds better than mine.

You should make calls.

(There's one more person who needs medical care.)

My goodness. She refused right away.

Hello. The call is being connected.

(Seo Jin hands over the phone to Kwang Kyu again.)

Thank you for calling.

Hello.

Is it possible to see a doctor without a reservation?

- What seems the problem? - Well...

- I think it's a throat cold... - A flu.

- A flu. - A throat cold?

- Tell her we're filming a show. - Then...

Actually, we... I'm sorry, but we're...

filming the show "My Grumpy Secretary" right now.

Our guest is feeling unwell.

(We won't get rejected again, right?)

- Oh, hello. - Hello. This is Kim Kwang Kyu.

- Right. Your voice sounds familiar. - Yes.

- Right. - I understand.

(Top Excellence Award)

I won the Top Excellence Award.

- By any chance... - The filming staff won't come?

- The filming staff will go. - Tell her they'll go.

- Tell her just a few will go. - But just a few will go.

I'm sorry, but can I call you back?

Of course, you can.

- All right. Bye. - Yes. Thank you.

I called a clinic and asked for permission for filming.

But they refused.

After being rejected by two clinics,

I became impatient. So even before I knew,

I mentioned the Top Excellence Award.

(The unforgettable memory of that day)

(Top Excellence Award, Show Variety,)

(Kim Kwang Kyu of My Grumpy Secretary)

I also wanted to brag about it.

That's the best award I received.

(My Star's shooting ended well.)

- Thank you. - Thank you.

Is it over?

- Well done. - Thank you.

- Well done. - Is it all over?

- Thank you. - Is it all over?

Let's get changed and head to the hospital.

(She quickly changes to go to the hospital.)

(He heads somewhere without wearing his jacket.)

(He suddenly goes to the parking lot.)

(Seo Jin turns on the heater...)

(before My Star arrives.)

We were supposed to eat together, but we never have.

It's here.

It's here.

(The call from the hospital)

Hello?

- Yes. This is the hospital. - Hello.

Okay. Just those, then.

- Yes. Okay. - All right.

Make sure to bring your ID when you come.

Do we need an ID?

- I have mine. - Okay.

- I have mine. - Okay.

(It's a relief.)

You could use the mobile ID card.

- I have it. - She has it.

- She has it. - All right.

- I'll see you later. Thank you. - Thank you.

- Thank you. - You're welcome.

Do you carry your ID card?

Don't you?

Really?

I keep it in my wallet.

I see.

Did they call?

- Yes. - Did they tell us to come?

- Yes. - Do we go?

(Coughing)

(Coughing)

I've never seen her so ill over the ten years I've known her.

Let's go.

- Well done. - Have a nice day.

(She greets the staff even in her ill state and leaves.)

(My Star's schedule: 5:40pm, gopchang restaurant gathering)

(Hospital visit to recover her condition)

You're going to drive, right?

- I could. - You should drive.

- Should I? - Yes.

Let's have you drive.

Yes. Shin Hye...

Have you never been in a car I drove?

Never.

Why would I ever ride in a car you’re driving?

Did I not drive?

I've never been in that car. I used my own car.

(My Star wants Seo Jin to drive.)

(So today as well,)

(he sits in the driver's seat.)

(Han Ji Min)

(I should take a picture of Seo Jin driving.)

Why are you taking a picture of that?

(Lee Seo Jin's driving service: Maximum satisfaction)

It's cold. Aren't you cold?

I turned on the heater way up earlier.

(I turned on the heater way up earlier.)

Of course.

I can never forget the moment you made the fire in the hearth.

("Three Meals A Day")

(Seo Jin takes care of the fire for Shin Hye's room...)

(Working hard)

(in worry the fire would weaken...)

(so that Shin Hye doesn't feel uncomfortable in the new place.)

(He places the bedding.)

(He took care of her well even then.)

(He places another mat so her back doesn't ache.)

(The warm spot Seo Genie heated up)

(Like the warm spot,)

(the memory is warm even after 10 years.)

I was young then.

- I can't do that now. - You're still young.

I can't do that now.

(He's still Sweet Genie to My Star, 10 years later.)

(Heading to the internal medicine clinic Kwang Kyu arranged)

(Coughing)

(Oh, no.)

Who would have known I'd suddenly get a fever today.

I know, right?

We have our company's New Year gathering today.

Goodness.

Give her water.

(Will she be able to carry on with her schedule?)

I think we have to park in the parking lot first.

Goodness.

You all came to the hospital because of me.

You've never visited a hospital during the recording, right?

- Do you have your ID? - I do.

It's the first time.

- This is new. - Right?

- What? - This is new.

Goodness.

(It's Seo Jin's style of joking to make My Star feel at ease.)

- Hello. - Hello.

Hello. Excuse me.

My throat...

- It's your first time here, right? - Yes.

Please fill in the form first.

(Walking)

(He just walks around.)

He really came.

(He really came.)

I suddenly got a fever during the shoot.

(I'm Kim Kwang Kyu, the winner of the Excellence Award who called.)

Yes.

- You can have a seat. - Okay.

I'll check your temperature.

- Do you feel okay? - She would have a fever.

I took some pills.

- It's 37.6°C. - You have a fever.

It's 37.6°C. I said your temperature was almost 38°C.

What's the normal body temperature? Is it 36.5°C?

(She completed her schedule despite a high fever.)

(Feeling bad)

I think it dropped a little...

after taking the medicine you bought earlier.

That's just temporary.

You need to get an IV.

Please take off your jacket and measure your blood pressure.

(Following her)

I've never measured my blood pressure on TV.

(It's a somewhat overwhelming close care.)

It's so embarrassing.

(Measuring her blood pressure)

You have low blood pressure.

- You have low blood pressure. - Give it to me.

I have really low blood pressure.

Really? Measure it here.

Mine is 50 over 70.

Shouldn't I be admitted?

(He's worried about himself.)

It's going up.

It's going up a lot.

How is that low blood pressure? It's 130 over 74.

- Why is it normal today? - That's very normal.

You and your lies.

I ate really well today. That's why.

He ate well today.

(His blood pressure rose because he stole the gimbap.)

- That's... - Please come in.

Okay.

- I'll go. - Let's go.

Goodness.

- Goodness. - I'm sorry.

It's going to hurt when the needle goes in.

(He keeps following My Star.)

I'll keep my eyes closed.

You'll be examined,

- and you'll get the IV drip. - Okay.

Let's go.

(Feeling sad)

(Don't be sick, My Star!)

(Beyond his sad head, My Star heads to the examining room.)

- Please sit here. - Hello.

- Park Shin Hye. - Yes.

I thought, "Why did it have to be today?"

"Why today, when I'm filming with them?"

It felt like I was bothering everyone...

to go to the hospital...

while filming.

I said I'd be fine after taking some pills,

but he suggested I should go to the hospital.

It would have been bad if I hadn't gone to the hospital.

- You are glad you listened to him. - I'm glad I listened to him.

Thank you.

(1 hour later)

- Thank you. - You're welcome.

(My Star is back from getting the IV.)

(She looks much better.)

I almost died earlier.

My fever wouldn't go down during the shoot.

My head hurt.

I thought, "This is bad."

"How am I going to do this until evening?"

- You look much better. - I feel much better.

I don't have a fever now.

How do you feel, Shin Hye?

- Much better. - What?

- I feel alive. - Really?

It's a relief.

(My Star recovered her health.)

- Well done, Actor Lee. - Thank you.

(My Star's Schedule: 5:40pm, gopchang restaurant gathering)

- These are all gifts. - They're for the lucky draw.

- That's... - This is the banner.

We need to take that as well.

We should take everything.

(Their hands are full.)

Hi!

(She's happy to see them.)

- Welcome. - Welcome.

(Hugging)

- Hello. - Hello.

- It's been a while. - Yes.

- It's been a while. - Welcome.

(This is a restaurant run by My Star's parents.)

You're here.

(The people gathered here...)

(are the members of the company reunited after a long time.)

Our company members try to gather at least two times a year.

(It's an annual tradition.)

Whenever I have work, and since I live nearby,

I give people some meal kits.

There are many people who live alone as well.

Sometimes, when we eat here, I give them the driver fee...

so they can eat and drink here.

I can just walk home.

- You live nearby. - I live nearby.

So this...

First, this...

is actress Park Jung Yeon.

(Actress Park Jung Yeon)

(KBS "Our Golden Days" and SBS "The Winning Try")

(A rookie actress who won the Best Rookie Award)

That's Jang Do Ha.

- Do you remember him? - He's from "The Judge from Hell."

(He worked on "The Judge from Hell" with Shin Hye and Kwang Kyu.)

- Yes. "The Judge from Hell." - The punk.

(Park Jung Yeon appeared as well.)

(Scary eyes)

(The creepy villain from "The Judge from Hell")

(I'll head out for the gathering.)

This is Nam Hae Jun.

Hello.

This is our youngest manager, Yun Kyeom.

And this is...

I met her earlier.

- She handed you the key. - She handed over the car.

- Yes. She's Lee Jung Min. - Here.

Thank you.

Here.

(This is the card and receipt we used.)

The receipt...

Thank you.

We spent a lot today.

They're my mom and dad.

I know them.

I met you about ten years ago.

- Have you been well? - Yes.

(Shin Hye's dad, Shin Hye's mom)

(Moving)

You know,

I got a hole-in-one back in December.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

- Congratulations. - Thank you.

Right. He got a hole-in-one.

- A hole-in-one? - For the first time.

Please give me a hug.

I've never been able to do that.

Me neither.

I've never been able to do that.

- I've never even made an eagle. - Really?

I got an eagle before.

- I'm above you. - I've never even made it.

- I've never made an eagle as well. - Really?

What about a hole-in-one?

- I've never made anything. - Really?

Really. I never made an eagle.

- Congratulations. - Congratulations.

(A hole-in-one doesn't just happen to anyone.)

(They prepare for the New Year gathering with good energy.)

Where should we hang this?

- Like this? - I think we can hang it like this.

(A banner My Star prepared herself)

(Let's go, 2026, people like seasoning.)

Here.

People like seasoning?

Our company's name is Salt.

Salt Entertainment.

(We should take pictures.)

- You made it well. - It's done, right?

(The New Year gathering begins.)

I came to eat.

I'm going to eat as much as I can.

Me too. I haven't eaten anything.

- Nice. - I'm...

(Glancing)

Is the camera on?

(Staring)

I don't think we should touch it.

It's on.

Was it on?

- It's on. - That startled me.

(That startled me!)

- A close-up shot. - It was too close.

(Poking)

(The actors play around with the camera.)

They brought all the receipts.

(My Star's real manager is checking the receipts.)

What is this for?

What did they do?

They went to a cafe.

What did they have?

They went to another cafe.

They went to the same place two times.

They had...

Have you been well?

It's been a while.

You look prettier. Congratulations...

- on winning the award. - Thank you.

Well done.

Why did you lose so much weight, Hae Jun?

I'm on a diet now.

Really?

Can you go free today?

We should eat a lot today.

(I should eat today.)

- It's his first filming tomorrow. - Tomorrow's the first day?

- Yes. - Goodness.

It's Hae Jun's first filming day tomorrow.

- Is he going home? - No.

He can't go.

(I'll go after eating.)

We first...

have to eat.

Let's order.

The usual.

- The assorted dish? - Yes.

- The usual. - We'll have that.

- The usual. - The usual.

- The special assorted dish? - The special assorted dish.

One, two, three, four?

(She brings in the serving table without effort.)

She's coming.

Is Shin Hye setting the table?

- Thank you. - Thank you.

(We can't just watch her.)

No.

- Sit down. - Okay.

Stay seated.

Just...

Just call Seo Jin.

Say, "Excuse me, Seo Jin."

(The Grumpy Secretary Seo Jin will help My Star.)

(Approaching)

May I happy you?

(He suddenly became a happiness evangelist.)

Please let me know if you need anything.

- Have you been well? - What?

- Have you been well? - Hey. You...

(They're meeting each other after a while after the drama.)

How did you come to join this company?

This company?

I've been here for seven years.

Jung Yeon has been here for many years as well.

- Really? - Yes.

You've already been there for many years?

(He knows many people, but doesn't know so much.)

(He's flustered.)

The weekend drama is almost ending, right?

- That's right. - Right.

- Did you watch it? - I'm watching it, of course.

My mother is watching it.

I'm watching it.

I'm enjoying it. I hope it does well.

Sit down.

I heard your father is Park Hak Ki.

- He's Park Hak Ki. - Yes.

(She inherited her father's musical talent.)

(She's a versatile actress who was scouted as an SM trainee.)

He mostly works on concert planning these days.

He was famous when we were young.

(While Grumpy Secretary is bonding...)

(She oils the pan skilfully.)

(The daughter of the owner of the gopchang restaurant...)

(expertly handles the grill.)

Don't chop it too small.

They'll all fall down.

They're too small.

You should cut them into big pieces.

(She's experienced.)

(He's amazed.)

An experienced person should grill this.

(The gopchang is getting cooked well...)

(by My Star's hands.)

(Glancing)

It's an honour.

As if I never did this before.

(He fails at making a polite statement.)

- Did you get the IV? - I did.

- Are you all right? - I got the IV. I'm fine.

- Jung Min. - Yes?

Did you get some rest today?

Did you feel anxious?

Yes.

She said she missed you so much.

Really?

Separation anxiety.

Separation anxiety.

(They grew even closer in just one day.)

Here.

Shall we have a drink too?

- Are we going to drink? - You should also...

- propose a toast. - Yes.

Okay.

Manager Kim Kwang Kyu will make a toast.

(Kwang Kyu's New Year toast, representative of Grumpy Secretary)

Salt Entertainment.

You made it through 2025 well.

You did a great job.

This is 2026.

In the Year of the Red Horse,

please sprint well...

like the red horse.

Nice, nice.

Run ahead.

Happy New Year. Let's go.

- Let's go! - Let's go!

(May 2026 be a year...)

Open up

(that opens up brightly.)

This is hard.

Thank you.

(The New Year gathering warms up with the toast.)

My beloved Salt members.

- Let's begin the lucky draw. - Okay.

Yes!

(The lucky draw)

Please give this to everyone.

Everyone should randomly pick.

You'll get them.

Please.

Please!

First,

there's a sweatshirt,

a coffee machine and coffee capsules,

and headphones worth 500 dollars.

Those are the gifts.

Do you need it?

Do you want it, Do Ha?

I want it!

- Do you want it, Hae Jun? - I want it!

- Do you want it, Jung Yeon? - I want it!

I want it!

(Suddenly)

It was like that at the "The Judge from Hell" gathering.

She hosted the gathering...

and had the loudest voice.

It was soft today because she wasn't feeling well.

That time, there were around 200 people,

and her voice was still loud and clear.

Goodness.

Can the manager join?

I'll let the two secretaries join.

Please.

Nice.

Thank me.

(Grumpy Secretary wants the gift.)

First,

I'll pick the winner of the third-place prize.

- Wishing you an energetic year, - Third-place? Which one is it?

you'll get a sweatshirt.

(A must-have Gen Z sweatshirt)

Now,

I'll draw the number.

Our members like sweatshirts.

(Drumroll)

Do you want it?

Do you want it?

Number 13.

(Number 13!)

Number 13.

(Who has the lucky number 13?)

No one?

(Is it...)

No one?

(There is a winner.)

Nice!

The sweatshirt!

I envy you.

I envy you.

Stand next to Shin Hye.

You should take a picture.

One, two, three.

(He didn't get the gift, but he works hard.)

Nice.

Congratulations.

Who here lives alone?

- Me. - You, you, you...

(Most of the members live alone.)

(I also live alone.)

(Single life suits the Grumpy Secretary.)

This is like gold...

to those who live alone.

It's a must-have item.

You all know it.

A coffee machine and coffee capsules!

Yes!

- Is this a set? - It's a set.

Didn't she bring the coffee machine...

for me?

(The coffee machine the secretaries have been eyeing since this morning)

(Who is the lucky one?)

Number 14.

- You don't drink coffee. - Right.

(It's the CEO who can't drink coffee, of all people.)

Seriously?

Show me you want it through your actions,

- I'll give it to you. - What?

Through my actions?

Through my actions!

(He seems to really want it.)

(Right up her alley)

- Let's give it to the next person. - You don't drink coffee.

(What?)

I showed how much I wanted it through my actions.

It had the opposite effect.

(But I liked it.)

Number four.

- My goodness. - Kim Ji Yeon.

Oh, no.

(Disappointed)

Congratulations.

- Let's take a photo with the gift. - A photo with the gift?

Congratulations.

In 1, 2, 3.

Good. Congratulations.

(A gift for 2nd place was also given out.)

- Here it comes. - The long-awaited...

Here it comes. Please.

Let's pick a number.

(The gift for 1st place is a 500-dollar pair of headphones.)

When you go abroad...

or travel,

you need this.

Please.

(He's the most desperate one.)

Please.

Please.

(The lucky number is 17!)

Number 17!

(His desperation paid off!)

Okay. One, two, three!

- Congratulations. - Thank you.

(With the secretaries' help, the lucky draw was successful!)

For the secretaries who worked hard today,

I'm going to grill the meat properly.

What was this again?

A beef heart.

- It's a bladder, isn't it? - Come again?

- It's a bladder, isn't it? - It's a heart.

- Is it... - A bladder?

Who eats bladders?

It's a heart. Ox heart.

It's a heart?

A bladder? What are you talking about?

Why did I think it was a bladder?

Let me cut it.

How can I eat this?

(How can I eat this?)

Enjoy it.

He can't eat gopchang.

(I can't eat it.)

- Have you tried this? - No, I haven't.

- No. You should try it. - I can't eat it.

- Let me... No. - I can't eat it.

- I can't eat it. - I'll cut it into small pieces.

- No. I'll just have the pork belly. - Just eat the pork belly.

No. I'll cut it into small pieces.

No. I don't want to eat it.

- Why? - I don't want to eat it.

- I don't want to eat it. - I mean...

- I recommend you. - I'm scared.

- It's not scary. - It's scary.

- It's really not scary. - Why are you scared of gopchang?

- It's scary. - No, it's not.

It feels like I'm eating my organ.

- No, it doesn't. It's different. - I don't want to try it.

- Do I have to eat it? - You have to.

Take a look.

- Eat it with pork belly. - I'm going to hide it like this.

He'll like it once he tries it.

- No. - This can't be bad.

(Kwang Kyu is a difficult baby to take care of.)

You can't see it. Open your mouth.

Open your mouth.

(At 58, Kwang Kyu is trying gopchang for the 1st time.)

- Just eat it. Try it. It's good. - It's good.

(Chewing)

I'm telling you. It's delicious.

(He keeps chewing it without swallowing it.)

It has a nice texture.

(Mom is proud.)

It might be greasy if you eat it as it is,

so I'm going to add a piece of spicy Cheongyang chilli...

to balance it out.

(Adding a piece of Cheongyang chilli to balance out the greasiness)

(Would you like to try it?)

(He takes it with no hesitation.)

It's good.

(It's good.)

I haven't been to this place for a while, but it's still so good.

I'm glad to hear that.

(I'm glad to hear that.)

(Flaring up)

(My Star suddenly runs.)

(She puts out the fire as if she's used to it.)

Daechang is fatty,

so it causes flames to flare up.

(You can tell she's the daughter of a gopchang restaurant owner.)

Have you met Han Ji Min's mother after the show?

- Yes. - How?

It was before the episode aired.

- Before it aired? - Yes.

What did she say?

I said, "Once the episode airs, she'll get roasted."

(I said, "Once the episode airs, she'll get roasted.")

Why?

- Why? - Because she's rude to me.

(Because she's rude to me.)

(Laughing)

Did she complain that the photo you took...

made her look like a three-head-tall person?

She liked it.

(We're sorry we couldn't protect you, My Star.)

Have you heard him sing?

- No. - You've never heard it, right?

- No. - I heard him sing...

for the 1st time in 20 years.

- I think he'd be good at singing. - Back in the days...

He was a lot better than I had thought.

He has a nice voice.

Next day, Jung Yu Mi...

- texted me. - Who?

She texted 20 F's.

- What does that mean? - Who?

Is that a grade? Did she give you an F?

People always tell me I'm a thinker.

But Yu Mi said I was a feeler...

all the time.

(Yu Mi is the only one in Korea who thinks Seo Jin is a feeler.)

You're a feeler?

- No, you're a thinker. - She's the only one who says that.

Have you sung in front of her?

- No. - That's what I said.

You never sang.

(He doesn't care about his MBTI.)

Have you worked with Kyoung Pyo before?

(Have you worked with Kyoung Pyo before?)

Around 13 years ago,

in 2012, we did a tvN drama...

called "Flower Boys Next Door."

He's a nice guy.

We were practising pronunciation on set.

I heard that most people can't say...

"olmang jolmang ttolmang ttolmang..."

three times in a row.

It's a difficult word to pronounce.

Olmang jolmang ttolmang ttolmang.

- Olmang... - Say it quickly.

Olmang jol... Gongmal...

He can't even say it slowly.

- You try it. - Olmang jongmal ttolmal ttolmal.

I told you. It's impossible.

It's hard.

Olmang jongmal ttongmal ttongmal.

Olmang dongmal ttongmal ttongmal.

We took turns trying it, and burst out laughing.

Once you start laughing...

over nothing, you can't...

I stop the shoot then.

(I stop the shoot then.)

I can't hold back my laughter.

(He can't hold back his laughter.)

Once I start laughing, I can't stop.

I had to stop the shoot when I was filming "Dr. Park's Clinic."

You did?

Was I there too?

I was surprised...

to see you in bald makeup.

- It was shocking. - It fits who I really am.

- Right. - I like that kind of character.

- I like comedy. - You like comedy?

Yes.

I always liked comedy.

- But I've never... - Are you good at crying scenes?

I'm not.

(Very confident)

Why? You're good.

Didn't you cry a lot in "Lee San, Wind of the Palace?"

How did you cry at that time?

I almost threw up.

(I almost threw up.)

(Seo Jin's crying performance without gagging)

(Tear doesn't come out.)

When I had two weeks to prepare a crying scene,

I started practising crying two weeks before the shooting.

(He started getting ready to cry 2 weeks before the shooting.)

At home, while reading the script.

I cried once a day...

until it became a habit.

I prepared myself to cry every time I saw it.

After two weeks,

I could cry automatically when I filmed the scene.

(He could cry automatically 2 weeks later.)

You worked really hard.

It was when I was young.

We all have been through...

the "barbaric age."

Right. You started your career as a child actor...

during difficult times.

- Right. - So she knows everything.

- I was scolded a lot. - Yes.

(She became an actor when she was 13.)

I bet she cried even when she wasn't filming.

I cried secretly.

- That's what I thought. - I didn't cry in front of people.

I cried in the back,

wiped my tears, and came out.

And I cried a lot while walking along the Han River.

She had a hard time.

It was embarrassing.

Her mother is strict.

She used to say, "If it's hard, don't do it."

How did you feel when she acted out the scene...

- where she got slapped... - Okay.

- as a child actor? - I...

I saw the script,

and it said it was a scene where she got slapped.

- It usually goes like this. - Yes.

- That's what people usually think. - Yes. It looks like a fake.

But after I saw her get slapped like that,

I still can't watch "Stairway to Heaven."

- She got slapped for real, right? - Yes.

(The legendary slap scene that made My Star cry)

(Getting slapped)

(Getting slapped again)

(Getting slapped again)

(She got slapped about 30 times.)

"Ma'am?"

Call me again.

She didn't tell me that she had been slapped like that...

when she got home.

She didn't tell me,

so I didn't know she had such a hard time at work.

I didn't know. I got to hear...

about what happened from the managers...

long after that.

It was heartbreaking.

When she was little, she was scolded a lot...

because she didn't have much acting experience.

I heard that she never cried in front of people.

She never did.

She went to the restroom to cry, wiped her tears, and came out.

So the director said Shin Hye was cold-hearted.

Oh, my.

Don't ever work with the director again.

(Don't ever work with the director again.)

- But... - Don't ever work...

- No. - with that kind of director again.

Thanks to them...

- It was thanks to them. - She puts it nicely.

That's what made her who she is now.

Now, she usually plays characters who slap people.

(Now, she usually plays characters who slap people.)

(My Star from Hell)

- You're right. - Yes.

She won't get slapped now.

- Who will slap her? - You killed many people...

in "The Judge from Hell."

He got slapped a lot.

- She hit you a lot, right? - I got hit a lot.

You got hit a lot.

I did.

Eat.

(The 13-year-old girl who used to get slapped...)

(grew into a tough woman like this.)

(She's getting revenge for the humiliation she endured as a child.)

(Feeling much better)

That's why the ratings were high.

(It still hurts.)

Can you watch me do a hitting scene?

It must feel good.

(It's fine as long as my daughter isn't hurt.)

My gosh.

Mom, the flame is flaring up.

(Rushing)

She has a lot of grey hair now.

She doesn't dye her hair anymore.

She doesn't? Why?

She likes how she looks with grey hair.

She looks pretty.

I'm going to dye my hair next week for the first time.

(You've never dyed your hair?)

You've never dyed your hair before?

Lately, I've been getting more grey hairs.

Right. You didn't have grey hair. I was so jealous.

My hair has become greyer these days, which is stressful.

Is that so? I've also got more grey hairs lately.

I have a shoot the week after next.

- What kind of shoot? - You've never dyed your hair?

What kind of shoot?

It's a commercial.

Can't we please do it together?

Can't we? Hey.

(He wants to do everything with him.)

What commercial is it?

Blankets.

Blankets?

We could do it together.

The one you gave me?

- When we ate together. - Yes.

Come to think of it, there's nothing I didn't give you.

You really raised me.

I raised you.

Every time he filmed a commercial,

he would send me the product he was endorsing.

When I started living alone,

he sent me an air purifier.

(When I started living alone, he sent me an air purifier.)

Before I got married, he sent me a wool blanket.

I still use it.

- You do? - Yes. I like it.

(He's like a big brother who takes care of his sister.)

It's good.

I hope you endorse a lot of products.

(I hope you endorse a lot of products.)

If I film a commercial, I'll also send the product to you.

- Chinese bush clover? - Chinese bush clover.

(To be continued...)

(They said they'd show you why they're Grumpy Secretaries.)

They were determined, but in the end...

They did everything I asked for, though.

I had a fever during the shoot.

They took me to the clinic.

(They took perfect care of me while I was sick.)

- They looked after you. - They looked after me.

(And...)

(they take the four-cut photos My Star wished for.)

What's this?

(Crowded)

You should stand up.

- Stand up. - You come closer.

- Why are you... - No.

- Like this. - Stand in the middle, Shin Hye.

- Shin Hye, you stand here. - Can't we adjust the angle?

(You can tell these middle-aged men have never taken four-cut photos.)

- Come on. - You...

In 1, 2, 3.

(They managed to find the right angle and take photos.)

One more time.

In 1, 2, 3.

The last one. One, two, three.

All of this will become a memory.

(My perfect Grumpy Secretaries)

Just like when we worked for Nam Jin last time,

we were very kind managers.

When she was sick,

we should've just given her a herbal tonic...

and said, "Just take this and bear with it."

But Seo Jin was too kind to her.

I was like, "Is it okay to take her to the clinic?"

"It doesn't fit the purpose of our show."

"I don't think it fits the purpose."

We're no longer following the show's original concept.

(We're no longer following the show's original concept.)

We've been doing it for too long.

Since episode 12,

we've become slaves to this show.

(We became slaves to "My Grumpy Secretary.")

We started wanting to do a good job.

This is the biggest problem.

(Bitter)

Right.

I think I have a slave-like mindset.

I've been feeling this way for a long time.

I was like this when I was doing "Grandpas Over Flowers."

I also felt that way while filming "Three Meals a Day."

I get tamed after a while.

And I hate myself for that.

I hate that I become like that.

(I hate that I become like that.)

I felt it again this time.

(It was the 1st time he realised it in his 54 years of life.)

I tried making a logo...

for the next season.

Are you out of your mind?

"I'll do everything for you."

- Go beyond being a manager. - This...

isn't easy.

Once I have a slave-like mindset,

it really isn't easy to go back.

My body would just move automatically.

It's dangerous.

Season Two would be very dangerous.
