Original subtitles

You know nothing about love.

But you do? You've always been single.

-I've read a lot about it. -Impressive.

The water is boiling.

Why is it lying upside down?

No, don't! Not there!

Just stay like this for a bit.

I'm going to love you from now on.

I want to love you.

Isn't that what it says in that childish book?

Are those your wishes for romance?

You memorized it all in such a short time. What a good memory!

Is the water still boiling?

-Try it. -Yes.

I normally don't eat food with chemical additives,

but I'll try it for you.

Yes, it's an honor.

How do you like it?

-It's edible. -Really?

It's better with some kimchi.

Does it make any nutritional sense to add more salt to salt?

I enjoyed that.

Well, even though it's a bunch of chemical additives, you loved it.

It's the first meal that you made for me.

Is that so?

Make sure you disinfect the wound and rub in ointment before you go to bed.

I got it.

Thank you for today.

That was the first time he's come inside.

Is it him again?

Did he forget something?

Oh!

-Ta-da! -Sis.

To what do I owe the pleasure?

What, am I supposed to book a reservation or something?

-Here. You have beer, right? -Yeah.

What is that? Were you with someone?

Huh? What?

Oh, Mr. Vice-chairman.

Oh, my God! Are you crazy!

How dare you let a man come inside?

He just had some ramen.

What? Ramen?

It's not cold noodles or black noodles, but ramen?

Is it such a significant dish?

Of course it is.

When a girl asks you, "Hey, do you want to come and have ramen?"

It means "Once you do that, you and I become a couple."

It's a sort of "I like you."

It's neither caviar nor truffles.

It's just an instant noodle with chemical additives.

How come it has such a profound meaning?

You're so naive. It's just an excuse.

When a man and a woman are in an enclosed space,

they want to hold their hands

and want to hug each other.

-What is it? -Nothing.

-Is this about you and Secretary Kim? -What are you talking about?

You think we are that free?

It's about my cousin's college friend.

And I have that much free time?

I'll listen to the story of your cousin's friend at this hour?

You like him, don't you?

Please! You always say that.

Mi-so, people are happy with someone who is similar to them.

It's true for people but also all creatures on the earth.

Have you ever seen that dog and bird hanging out together,

on the TV show, How Is It Possible?

Bird-dog?

Sorry. You're saying that a dog and a bird are a couple?

Isn't it weird?

You can not help saying, "How is it possible?"

And that's what happens when two people from different worlds become a couple.

Are you saying he's a dog and I'm a bird?

Sort of. He was born to a rich family and we're just ordinary people.

Totally different.

If you told him that we used to fight over a fried chicken leg,

could he ever imagine doing that?

This is not a company share, but just a piece of fried chicken.

He's just living in a different world.

A world so out of reach no matter how hard you try.

I'm telling you this because I'm worried about you.

I don't want to see you get hurt by him.

I know.

But...

it's my life.

Get home safely. Send me a text when you arrive.

All right. Bye. Good night.

Bye.

I'm worried about her.

Mom. Dad.

DANGER

Where am I?

I'm so scared.

I'm scared.

MR. VICE-CHAIRMAN

-Yes, Mr. Vice-chairman. -Where are you?

I'm still at home. Anything you want?

Are you ready to go to work?

Yes, I'm about to leave.

-All right, come out. -Okay... huh?

What?

Oh, my God. Why are you...

I'm coming. Yes.

What are you doing here this-- Oh my!

I'm sorry.

-Don't be. -Huh?

-What? -What?

Ah...

All right.

Where are you going?

To drive. Mr. Yang is not here.

No, allow me to drive.

What?

Get in.

Watch your head.

You look very pretty--

If that's what you want to hear, you'd better care about fashion more.

What?

You wore this blouse last Wednesday and Friday.

People will think it's the Yumyung Group uniform.

Wednesday and Friday...

You remembered that?

I know. I am also overwhelmed by my amazing memory.

Sometimes there are things I want to forget.

What is this?

A croque monsieur by my personal chef. Help yourself if you skipped breakfast.

Yes.

COLD BREW

You may have the coffee as well.

Okay.

-You may also have the paper bag. -Huh?

Thank you.

Now?

Shall we?

-Me first? -Yeah.

Young-ok! How do I look today? I bought a new BB cream.

Hey, you should clean the gunk out of your eyes

before you put on the cream.

Oh, no, since when?

Oh my gosh!

-Since ten minutes ago. -Why are you telling me now?

Hello.

Good morning.

"Good morning?"

Isn't this the first time he greets us in such a friendly manner?

No, he was always friendly to me.

Oh, he was? Manager Bong, wasn't it in your dream?

Please!

Did something good happen to Mr. Vice-chairman today?

Well...

Well...?

-Let's get to work. -Yes.

-Thank you. -Have this and wake up.

-I got it. Enough! -Thank you.

Give me a new one.

Young-jun, you perfect man.

You're not only handsome

but also have a warm heart capable of love.

Mr. Vice-chairman, may I put some ointment on your wound?

Would you do it yourself?

You may continue...

Ah, you're done with this business plan. Let me--

-Are you all right? -I'm fine.

I can do that.

I'm repaying your kindness yesterday.

I value the principle of give-and-take.

From now on, I'll review my documents on a tablet.

-Huh? -Papers can be dangerous.

Yes.

GREEN TEA

What's wrong with me?

Secretary Kim, what are you doing?

-What? Why... -That...

Oh, my! Why is that there?

So you do make mistakes!

-Here you go. -Thanks.

Are you all right?

I am not.

My two sons don't get along, they are worse than strangers.

I'm so upset.

Why don't you go out shopping?

You said there's a purse that you like. That limited edition handbag.

-Go buy it. -No.

Why not? You have money and a great taste.

Buy it at once.

-No. -Come on.

Secretary Choi, go to the department store--

I said no!

Why do you keep saying no? Just buy it, right now!

I bought it already!

-Huh? -I bought it right when it came out.

Last week.

Did you?

When can I expect your apology to Young-jun?

Huh? Well...

Your mother is too upset to even sleep at night.

Will you make up with him for your mother's peace of mind?

Yes, I will.

And don't distract Young-jun in the future.

He's currently managing many important projects.

If he's distracted, it may jeopardize our entire company.

All right.

Secretary Kim, you have a guest in the lobby.

My guest? Who is it?

I didn't ask the name.

Please make sure to take their name next time.

Yes, I'm sorry.

-You are my guest? -Yes, Miss Mi-so Kim.

How did you know my name and department?

You don't look pleased.

I'm not pleased. There is no reason to be.

I thought you were rude pushing for my number the other day.

And it's not appropriate that you just show up here at my job.

-Then I should just go? -Yes, goodbye.

I can't believe it, you asked me to meet in that email.

I didn't!

An author event at the Yumyung Arts Center?

When did I--

Are you... Morpheus?

I really apologize. I'm actually a huge fan of your books.

I made a mistake not recognizing you.

Stop apologizing and eat.

You haven't really eaten anything because you were so busy apologizing.

Okay.

-Excuse me. -Yes.

How can I help you?

Can you take the flowers away? She's allergic to them.

Yes, I'll take it away immediately.

-How did you know that? -How could I not know that?

While sniffing, you were looking around and then, when you've noticed the flowers,

you made a face like, "A-ha, the culprit!"

I can totally tell you're a writer. You are very observant.

So, have you read my proposal?

Well, skimmed through it.

So, what do you think?

-Do you need an answer now? -Sorry?

-What is it, owner? -I chewed on a stone.

-Really? These people... -It's okay. I'm all right.

I didn't know you were this generous person.

People make mistakes sometimes.

You seem to be in a great mood. Did something good happen today?

Something good?

-Are they dating? -What?

You know, your cousin's classmate who had ramen with the girl.

-Are they dating? -Not yet.

Not yet? He's not very motivated. I can tell he is...

-He's a relationship virgin. -What...

How dare you!

Why are you so serious about your cousin's friend.

I'm really close to him!

How dare you call him a virg...

I'm frustrated, that's all.

No need to worry. He'll ask her out soon.

Tell him "Don't take long. Just do it." Girls hate to wait for a guy.

-They really hate it. -Really?

This is uninteresting. Let's eat.

All right.

Call me. I look forward to your answer.

Will you give me your real number this time?

Of course.

Here you go.

A confession of love...

I just want an ordinary romance with an ordinary guy.

Does that mean she wants an ordinary confession of love?

I've been extraordinary my whole life. I have no idea how to be ordinary.

-Secretary Kim Ji-ah. -Yes, is there anything you need?

Well...

I have a question.

-Anything you want me to do? -What?

He has a question.

Go ahead.

Well...

The opening of arts center is going well?

Yes, I'll join the Planning Team's meeting later today.

Okay, keep it up.

-Did you meet your guest? -Yeah...

Who is it? Is he who you're dating?

No, he's not!

But he is someone you'd love to meet.

-Do I know him? -I'll let you know once it becomes clear.

Manager Jung, I have a question.

Yes, ask me anything.

Is there a popular restaurant that...

ordinary people like?

-Huh? -Good for a serious conversation.

In Hapjeong, there is a very popular tripe place.

-Tripe? -Yes!

Sizzling tripe with a glass of soju.

Very good to have a serious conversation.

And you can also have a fried rice with radish kimchi. It's fantastic!

I AM PROUD

Not that kind of place.

I'm looking for an ordinary but special place.

Ordinary and special...

Near Gangnam Station, there is a restaurant

where you can have assorted special cuts.

Entrails, hearts, and stomachs are served all together.

The menu is unique and not easily had elsewhere.

Anywhere not with internal organs?

Huh? Anywhere not...

Never mind.

Hello.

-Is President Park here? -Yes, he is.

PRESIDENT YU-SICK PARK

He's not there.

Where is he?

How do I know?

Where did he go?

Hey...

-I have a question. -Sure.

Is there a popular restaurant that ordinary people like?

A trendy place young women enjoy.

Young women?

Do you have a girlfriend?

No...

I'm making plans for a franchise business

targeting young women in their 20s and 30s.

Oh, I know a place. I'll show you.

I was there yesterday and took pictures.

The perfect place for young women is...

-Hot and Spicy Chicken Feet. -Ugh!

If you don't like it, how about... Hot and Spicy Pig Feet?

Never mind.

It's so good though...

Mr. Yang. Do you know a restaurant that women like?

You wouldn't know.

Chef Raymon's restaurant in Sinsa, Chef Kim's in Cheongdam.

They are popular.

VICE-CHAIRMAN, YOUNG-JUN LEE

Ji-ah, it's time for the meeting.

Oh, yes.

Wow, I know Mr. Vice-chairman always looks great...

but looks super sexy when he's working.

It's obvious to you that he is very sexy, right?

Well, I don't know. Maybe because I see him everyday...

-Right. Let's go. -See you later.

GOOD PLACES FOR SAYING I LOVE YOU

ORDINARY BUT SPECIAL SIMPLE BUT LUXURIOUS

THE PROPOSAL CAFE BEST PLACE FOR LOVE

Perfect!

I hope the arts center will open soon.

Hello.

Hi.

A grain...

Bye.

He bought ten of the same suit and wears them each day.

He'd rather spend his time working than choosing what to wear.

Awesome!

It's definitely the mark of a grain of rice.

If he had ten suits, he would've changed.

Does he really have ten suits?

I'm sorry.

-Shall we begin? -Sure. Go ahead.

Hi, Mom.

A blind date? Again?

What does he do? Got a picture? Send it.

-Great job! -Thank you.

What is it?

A button from Gwi-nam Go's suit.

Yes! I'm so lucky.

I'll ask him for dinner when I give it back.

Just give it to him now. He'll have trouble without it.

He seems to have only one suit.

Again with that joke?

Why do you keep slandering him as Mr. One Outfit?

I'm not slandering. It's a fact!

He had rice on a same spot for the last two days.

The rice is gone now, but the mark still remains.

This proves he is wearing the same suit without cleaning it.

Okay, Ms. Sherlock.

-It's ten suits. -It's one.

-It's ten suits. -He has only one.

Stop it, guys. Does it matter how many suits he has?

It's just clothes.

Well, fair enough for you.

She does her job well with only a few clothes.

Sorry?

You wore this blouse last Wednesday and Friday, right?

You wore this blouse last Wednesday and Friday.

People will think it's the Yumyung Group uniform.

Right! And you wore the same on Thursday two weeks ago.

-And on the Tuesday that week. -Knock it off, please.

Is it really that important? You guys love clothes.

-Ji-ah, pour the water. -Yes.

The dinner with the chairman of New K Group, is it today?

Yes, at six o'clock.

You don't need to accompany me as he wants to talk privately.

-Yes, I'll go home-- -What about eight o'clock?

Huh?

Let's get together for wine.

I have something to tell you.

Something to tell me?

Then, I'll book a table in the lounge at hotel we acquired recently.

We can examine the place at the same time.

No, I already booked the place.

What? You did it by yourself?

-Excuse me. -Yes.

Can I try this?

I'm sorry, but the size 44 is out of stock.

You can make an order.

It's okay, then. I need one right now.

Right now?

Oh, you have a date.

A date?

No, it's not that.

I'll keep looking.

-Hi, Morpheus. -Done for the day?

What are you doing?

-I have an appointment. -Do you? Where?

In the lounge of M Hotel.

Wow, I'm near the hotel. Can you meet me now?

I'm sorry, but I have a prior engagement, as I said.

I want to answer to your proposal.

I'm not sure whether I'll change my mind or not.

Wait!

I don't have much time though.

All I need is just ten minutes. No worries.

Okay...

It's the limited edition Dom Pérignon champagne you asked for.

Bring it with a cake later.

Champagne is the best to celebrate.

Secretary Kim, congratulations in advance.

You're the only girl who gets the ordinary and true confession of love from me.

She'll be here soon.

Oh, Morpheus.

Wow.

You looked pretty before, but you look prettier now.

Are you seeing someone important?

Huh?

Well...

I'm sorry to tell you this, but I don't have much time.

So, have you decided?

Yes, I'm going to trust you and do it.

Really?

Thank you!

I knew you'd be happy like this. That's why I came.

ONCE IN A LIFE TIME

It must be your new book coming out next week.

Take it. It's a gift to you for our future collaboration.

Thank you.

You'll thank me more when you open it. I autographed it.

IT STARTED ACCIDENTALLY BUT MAYBE IT'S INEVITABLE.

Mr. Vice-chairman.

What are you doing?

Can you explain what you're doing now?

It's you who have to explain all this.

He's the writer, Morpheus.

He came to give his agreement to the author event at our arts center.

-When did it start? -I told you before.

How it would be great if we could get a famous writer.

Is he the famous one that you referred to?

-Yes. -Why didn't you tell me?

I thought it'd be useless to tell you without his acceptance.

Don't do it.

-Pardon? Why-- -Just don't.

Can I ask you why?

Am I supposed to explain everything to you?

When I say no, it's a no!

I know you have something to tell me. Would it be possible to postpone?

Sure, it's not a big deal.

Goodbye, then.

-Are you all right? -I'm sorry.

I'm okay.

I expected too much and only got hurt.

What's up? You asked me to come see you.

What are you doing?

Just...

I'm trying to help the family company.

What?

Mi-so told me it would be a great help if I step in.

What's that look?

Are you afraid that I'll steal her from you?

No, I'm not.

I think you are.

Do you want me to cancel the event? Are you afraid that much?

No, do it.

-What? -I don't care if you do it or not.

If you ever thought you have any influence over Mi-so or the company,

you've overestimated yourself.

You can't do anything.

Secretary Kim, I can explain why I was mad at you yesterday.

Secretary Kim, I'm willing to accept your apologies for your anger last night.

Secretary Kim, I'm sorry--

It'd be nice to escort her into the restaurant.

I should go out and wait. Attaboy, Young-jun.

It's a gift to you for our future collaboration.

Thank you.

You'll thank me more when you open it. I autographed it.

He's coming.

Mr. Vice-chairman. Good morning.

He said "good morning" yesterday. Is it bad morning today?

Yeah, he's different from yesterday.

Haven't seen you make a fuss in a while.

What's wrong?

I've got big news.

Gather around me if you're brave enough.

-Come on! -What is it?

You know, for the opening event of our arts center...

a book reading by the writer Morpheus will occur.

-What? -No way!

-It's a false rumor. -Believe me.

-I just-- -Manager Jung.

-Yeah? -Where did you hear that?

From the Marketing team.

The Vice-chairman ordered them directly to issue press releases ASAP.

What?

Is it true that you approved the Morpheus event?

It's true.

Can I ask how it became possible while it was impossible yesterday?

Oh, I forgot.

You are not the person who has to explain all this to me.

Please don't cross the line anymore.

I was confused, to be honest.

You proposed, asked me on a date, were being so nice to me, so...

I thought you really meant it.

Secretary Kim...

Don't play with my heart ever again.

Tell me about it!

It's Gwi-nam Go!

I forgot to bring the button.

You have to give it to him soon.

He has only one suit, it must be tough.

You're really stubborn. Why do you insist?

I don't. There is evidence--

Want to bet?

There must be a button missing now because it came off yesterday.

Why? Because he has only one suit.

I think there's a misunderstanding.

Hi.

Feel free to find the missing button on this jacket.

Well...

Four here, four here, two here.

One on the each inner pocket.

And...

even the spare one!

All in place.

I apologize for my big mistake...

-I'll buy you a drink to-- -No thank you.

Please refrain from false rumors.

-I'm sorry! -What about beers, not rumors?

If you don't like beer, what about soju? Beer? Rice wine?

Shit! What did I tell you? I told you to stop playing detective.

What should I do? She looks so mad at me.

Ouch! That hurts! I have a headache...

Dr. Choi, Mr. Vice-chairman has a headache.

-At 10:00 a.m. tomorrow? -It's not that severe.

He's saying it's not that severe.

I sent you the draft of your speech for our welfare center opening next week.

Please review it.

My tie got loose...

Secretary Kim.

I've got more big news!

Yeah?

I was talking with the marketing team regarding the Morpheus' book event

and I heard a surprising thing!

Secretary Kim.

-I'm not sure if you can handle it. -I'll try.

Don't be shocked.

Morpheus is the brother of the Vice-chairman.

What? Are you sure?

For sure. It's real. Very true!

He is the eldest son of the Yumyung Group.

Isn't that real big news? Huh?

I remember you'd asked about his brother.

So, I came to tell you first as soon as I heard the news.

The missing oldest son appeared.

It might cause issues with the position of power...

I had lots of fight with the friends of my brother.

They picked on me, saying I was arrogant.

But you must've been glad that you had your brother with you.

No, he was worse than anyone. He is an asshole.

It doesn't seem that they get along well.

What? How do you say you're sorry?

It's so simple. You just say "Sorry" and that's all.

Do you know how to say sorry in Spanish?

It's lo siento. Try it.

Lo sien... lo...

Forget it.

You can't say it aloud because you never said it before.

It's exactly the same for me.

I've never said "sorry."

Is there any way to mend a relationship without saying sorry?

There is not.

What if... I don't say it?

You lose the person.

Secretary Kim.

You have something to say?

I...

apologize.

Huh?

I'm sorry.

No. I am sorry.

You're not a person who gets upset without reason.

It's my fault that I took it personally.

Please know this though...

everything I did was for you.

Of course I know that.

You probably want a fancy dinner as a token of reconciliation.

But I'm swamped with work.

I'm fine.

I hope so. I wasn't able to do work because I was distracted by you.

What?

Would you like some coffee?

-It's here. -Oh.

-It's a bit hot. Should I open the window? -It's open.

It is.

Secretary Kim.

Yes?

Earlier today...

you told me not to play with your heart.

Yeah, well...

I...

really want to.

Huh? Well...

Secretary Kim!

-Seems like "sexual desire disorder." -Sexual...

No way. It's misunderstanding.

-Vice-chairman! -Did you call me?

Please give me a chance to make up for it.

How much is this?

I think I was locked in an empty house for a day.

And there was a boy who was older than me...

I didn't know he was right next to me...
