[Episode 6]

President, are you not feeling well?

You are burning.

If you feel dizzy, maybe lean on me?

Manager Nah, don't pretend you don't notice. You need to go and handle it.

Yes, I understand.

Also follow up on the feedback.

Yes.

Well, we're off work now. No more work talk.

Oh, yes.

Where are you going?

- Home. - Let's have dinner together.

I'll pass.

Ah, Team Leader.

No, thank you.

Boss.

President, the door will open soon. Just hang in there.

It's almost time to get off work.

What should I do?

Jeez, I'm going crazy.

Ah, seriously.

[Under inspection] What? What's that sound?

Why? Why did it stop while descending?

Well, did it break down?

Could it be that it is overloaded?

I got it, alright.

Oh, hello.

What brings you here?

Thank you for your hard work.

Here, have this while you work. Just try some.

This is really refreshing, you know.

I came to check the working environment.

Is there anything uncomfortable while you work?

Yes, you can have that while you continue.

What? If they were inspecting it, they should've told us first.

I'll contact the management office.

Yes, hello?

What?

Oh, yes.

Yes, I understand. Yes.

Well...

They said we should take the stairs.

The elevator is broken.

Oh, jeez.

But it's the 5th floor.

- Ah, I'm wearing heels. - This is too much.

Uh, President.

Don't pay attention to the noises outside.

If you're anxious, your breathing speeds up.

Try this with me.

Inhale and exhale

as if letting air out slowly.

It's okay. You're doing well.

Breathe in slowly and out.

If it gets tough this time,

will you let go of her hand again?

Like last time?

President, are you not feeling well?

She must be disappointed.

She must've been surprised.

You've been waiting a long time, haven't you?

Here, have some water.

Thank you.

But are you really okay?

You should go to the hospital or something.

No, I'm just a little tired.

Oh, well...

- About earlier... - Well,

are you hungry?

Would you like to have dinner with me?

[Sales Team Meeting Room]

[Hui Won]

Think carefully

whether what you feel now is love or friendship.

I guess it's not friendship.

Hui Won, are you free this week?

[Hui Won, are you free this week?]

Let's see.

[How to confess to an old friend]

In a relaxed, natural setting,

as you talk as usual,

and then slip out a bit of honest feeling.

Jeez.

What am I doing, seriously?

Keep it simple.

Let's do it by text.

Hui Won, are you free this week?

[Hui Won, are you free this week?]

- Assistant Manager Cha. - Yes.

The meeting ended ages ago. What are you still doing here?

Are you sleeping here tonight?

No, I was just about to leave.

Right, you should sleep at home. Let's go.

Yes.

Ah, you're slow.

Coming.

Enjoy your meal.

Thank you.

Um, about earlier...

This is a great restaurant I discovered during college years.

I come here whenever I need to restore my energy.

Try the broth. You'll be amazed.

It melts away a day's fatigue, no,

maybe even a month's worth.

Jeez. This is my secret spot. I don't tell just anyone about it.

I'm being generous.

President, since you had a rough day, I'll share it with you.

Please try it.

How is it?

- It's delicious. - Right?

I told you this place is a gem.

When we went to the hop farm...

That day when I got mad at you because of the text my mom sent.

It's just

that day keeps weighing on my mind.

I wasn't actually mad at you.

You'd understand if you saw the text.

A shameful secret I never want anyone to know.

That's just how it is between my mom and I.

So I just wanted to run away.

Even though I knew you'd misunderstand.

It's still a difficult issue for me.

So you don't need to explain

about what happened earlier.

Thank you, truly.

I mean, no one's made of steel.

You can always talk if you need to.

It's not like leaning on someone will wear you out.

Maybe five minutes?

I can spare that much.

Then I'll enjoy this.

Eat up.

[Jang Hui Won] You finished the whole bowl.

You won't feel sick anymore. Sleep well.

[Kang Du Jun]

[Kang Du Jun]

Did the samgyetang work magic?

It really doesn't hurt.

[Finding the Next Try Beer] Looking for the second Try beer?

Oh, a beer proposal contest?

Looks like they're making the next beer after Try.

If your recipe wins,

[Finding the Next Try Beer] it'll come out under your name.

Awesome!

Besides that...

[Submission guidelines] they're even looking

at marketing and branding ideas.

Doesn't it require a whole team?

That's intense.

Whoa, seriously intense.

[Finding the Next Try Beer] Hey, want to try it together?

You can handle marketing, right?

- You develop the beer. - Jang Hui Won's going to get busy again.

Let's do this ourselves.

We absolutely have to do it.

- Hello. - Hello.

Did everyone see the contest news?

- Contest? - Yes.

[Beer brand contest] It's an in-house beer brand contest.

[Finding the Next Try Beer] They'll launch it under the winner's name.

Oh.

Kinda makes me greedy.

Oh great! I'm going all in this time.

Then how about we each join separately this time?

Good.

Let's try. Wanna make a bet?

- A bet? - Sounds good.

- Good. - The winner will do something for us.

What? Why's it so noisy this early?

- Oh. - Team Leader, do you want to join too?

- Join what? - We were just talking about the contest.

Oh, the contest?

Seems you're unaware of my achievements.

That Hit beer that followed Try beer? That was my idea.

Of course, due to cost issues, it's now a thing of the past.

So you won through a contest back then too?

Oh, it was back in my day.

No contest. I pitched it as an assistant manager.

I handled everything from planning to launch.

Bang Soon Yi! Bang Soon Yi!

Bang Soon Yi!

- Team Leader! - Bang Soon Yi.

- Manager Nah In Nam. - Yes?

Didn't I say not to call me by my full name?

Oh, sorry.

Anyway!

What's our team's name?

New Product Development Team!

So should we let other teams steal this chance?

- No way! - No way!

New Product Development Team.

First place! Let's go!

Let's go!

Whoa.

Manager Jang, the prize is 10 million won!

If we win, let's split it.

But you wanted a bet earlier.

No, I'm saying I'll give it to you. So, are you in or not?

- Really? - Who'll you partner with?

- Can we share? - I'll team with Manager Jang.

Madam, here's the profile of Hwang Mi Ran you requested.

Thank you.

[Hwang Mi Ran] Another blind date for Du Jun?

I told you before.

There's this lovely lady I met at a massage place.

You said that single room felt cramped, so that's what it was for!

You two only said a few words,

so how did she move your heart?

So, are you married?

- Pardon? - What's your religion?

Not seeing anyone?

What do your parents do?

Well...

I was too pushy, wasn't I?

My son just works

all the time and still isn't married, so I worry about him.

I'm truly happy after getting married.

What was so great about it?

Well...

Nowadays, I spend a lot of time alone like this.

But it wasn't like this when the kids were young.

I'd chat about everything with my husband after work.

In summer, we'd go to the beach and swim.

In winter, we'd warm our hands, have snowball fights, and decorate trees.

There was never a time I wasn't happy.

Oh.

I'm sorry.

Oh, I'm being sentimental in my old age.

Oh, not at all!

I'm so envious.

Just hearing this, I can tell you're a wonderful wife and mother.

I think the reason your husband could comfortably talk about his day,

and your children could laugh and run around so freely,

is that you created

such a warm home.

Oh my... I'm going to cry.

My son probably doesn't know I feel this way.

I'm sure your son knows.

He just hasn't said it yet.

There's something like that.

How should I put it?

A kind of soul and sensitivity

that only women share.

Anyway, I think she'd be great with Du Jun.

Just pretend you don't know about this.

I'll handle everything.

Jeez.

Okay.

[Jang Hui Won] You finished the whole bowl.

You won't feel sick anymore. Sleep well.

What are you doing?

Nothing, it's nothing.

Let's have porridge for lunch.

You probably haven't eaten anything since yesterday.

- I did? - You did?

You probably just drank electrolyte drinks.

I had samgyetang.

Samgyetang?

You won't even eat porridge when sick, but samgyetang?

Some famous place?

There was a place like that.

It felt like a really old, legendary restaurant,

and the walls were covered in graffiti...

Oh, I should take this call. Be right back.

Okay.

[24.11.05, Came again, Min Uk and Hui Won]

[23.05.16, Samgyetang place, Min Uk and Hui Won]

[25.02.20, Jang Hui Won and Cha Min Uk came and left]

[25.07.20, Jang Hui Won and Cha Min Uk came and left again]

Oh, that startled me...

What's with the graffiti? Did someone write something bad about you?

Wait... hold on.

I need your approval!

[You finished the whole bowl. You won't feel sick anymore. Sleep well.]

You were irritated just a moment ago, and now you're smiling like an idiot.

What did you see? Let me in on the joke.

Just focus on driving.

Both our lives are in your hands.

Since you know that, maybe treat me better?

Talk to me when I'm bored, at least.

Oh right, didn't you say I had some documents to approve yesterday?

- Where are they? - You didn't even look when I showed you.

Dear Du Jun doesn't listen to a word I say.

Let me see.

What is this?

[He ate the samgyetang alone] Why did you doodle

[Am I invisible?] all over it like this?

And with permanent ink too!

[Jang Hui Won and Cha Min Uk came and left]

Why? Is there a problem?

Well, that...

I forgot to remove that one.

Does forgetting make it all go away?

Then how come you never forget to use your turn signals when driving?

Forget to eat too.

Forget to come to work.

No, I have to come to work.

Sorry.

Wait, are these scribbles really

worth getting that mad at me?

Of course. I'm very stressed right now.

Focus on driving.

Ah, hurry up!

It's a red light!

- Ugh, seriously. - Jeez.

[Beer recipe]

Since I can't taste alcohol,

I've got no recipes I can use.

Non-alcoholic beer clearly has flavor limitations.

[Min Uk]

Oh, Min Uk.

Tomorrow?

Why did you come?

You're only making things take longer.

It's just

I wanted to drive out and chat on the way.

And public transportation's starting to get hard for you too, right?

Then I'll join you.

Anytime.

Hui Won, are you busy this week?

I have something to tell you.

Something to tell me? Can't you say it now?

Ah, well, it's kind of important.

Yeah?

If you're asking, I'll make time even if I don't have any.

Wait a second.

[Prenatal Screening]

Why? Are you really busy this week?

Not exactly,

but I have my prenatal screening and suddenly I'm feeling a bit nervous.

What if the results aren't good?

It'll be fine. Don't worry too much.

Yeah. Thankfully this time, the President said he'd go with me.

The President?

Yeah, I could go alone,

but since it's an important test, I feel a little scared.

Oh, I see.

That's a relief.

Yeah.

Level B2.

Doors opening.

Going up.

Doors closing.

Did you two come to work together?

Ah, Min Uk gave me a ride.

- On purpose? - Intentionally.

Let's just say that.

- Hui Won? - Yeah?

I heard the owner of that Three O'Clock Pocha is back after a successful surgery.

Really? Is she doing okay?

Yeah, seems like it.

Last time I walked by the front and the door was open, so I said hello.

She said we should come by together sometime.

Alright, let's go together and say hello.

Okay.

So it's finally this week. The day we go to the OB-GYN.

Oh, yes.

Come straight down after work then. I'll have the car waiting.

It's the day we see our Yeol Mu, so we can't be late.

'Our'?

Yeah.

- Ah, it's my floor. - Doors opening.

- Min Uk, bye. - Okay.

Alright, take care.

Doors closing.

People might get the wrong idea with you picking her up in the morning.

And you, sir, aren't officially dating her either, are you?

Do you like Jang Hui Won?

Is that not allowed?

Don't joke around.

I plan to confess to her seriously soon.

Aren't you mistaking friendship for love?

Aren't you the one mistaking a sense of responsibility for love?

Are you trying to pick a fight right now?

Let's do it.

No ranks, just a fair fight.

[Round 1]

Manager Jang, are you tired? Can I get you some coffee?

Ah, no thanks.

Slept late last night. Feeling a bit groggy.

A massage would be perfect on a day like this.

Ugh, I wish someone would just give me a rubdown.

Tell me about it.

What about you, Tak Soo?

Actually, I have a Level 2 massage certification.

I could give you one later.

- Here. - What's this?

This is for massaging the neck and shoulders. It's pretty refreshing.

All of a sudden?

Manager Jang!

- Have you seen it? - What?

The President just had recliner sofas delivered to every break room.

Everyone's checking them out right now.

Recliner sofas?

Come on, go take a look.

Let's go.

The President has gifted these,

one for each team, for our hardworking staff.

They're heavily advertised.

As expected of our president.

[Round 2]

Lemon tea, right? Extra cold, packed with ice?

Lemon tea is for when you're stressed.

Hui Won,

your stomach's been upset lately, so stick to warm tea.

Here, it's Rooibos.

These are vitamin D and iron supplements, essential for pregnant women.

Take two pills every morning and evening.

Here, and this

is the macaron you love from the bakery next to the bank at the intersection.

Eat one whenever you crave sugar, okay?

Isn't it basic knowledge that pregnant women should avoid sweets?

Don't you know that the stress of not eating what you crave

is even worse?

When the time comes for those cravings, I'll naturally buy them for her.

Do you think I can't afford to buy them because I'm broke or something? Huh?

You keep buying her things.

- Why are you worrying about my child? - What's going on with those two?

No! How is it your child already?

Isn't it too early to claim paternity?

The baby she's carrying is my child, so it's my child.

Hey! What if someone hears you? Be careful what you say.

You keep forgetting I'm your boss.

What exactly are you up to?

Oh, how's the morning sickness lately?

It was bad at first, but I'm doing better now.

I heard pregnant women crave sweet and sour things.

Is that true for you too, Manager?

Actually, I've been craving cold raw fish soup lately.

What's wrong?

- Are they here? - Who?

No, it's nothing.

There's this place in Pohang called White Lighthouse.

Their cold raw fish soup is so refreshing and tangy. It's so good.

Ah, just thinking about it makes my mouth water.

Wow, please take me there sometime.

- Really? - Yes.

Cold raw fish soup.

Cold raw fish soup.

Okay.

[Round 3]

[Maksuni Raw Fish Restaurant] Here.

Yes, can you get it to go right away?

Oh, of course.

In Seoul, no one beats you when it comes to fresh ingredients.

Yes, thank you.

Secretary Go! Secretary Go!

What? What?

- Is it the only option? - What?

If we keep this up, we'll lose.

There's no place in Seoul that manages ingredients as well as that.

I think we're too late.

Darn it!

Then we...

We go to Pohang.

Pohang?

The Pohang I'm thinking of?

What are you talking about?

Whoa.

A helicopter?

Who goes to Pohang just to buy cold raw fish soup!

The hottest three-star place in Yongsan.

Their ingredient storage management is top of the industry.

These are flounder and mullet caught directly at White Lighthouse in Pohang just now.

Wow, did you see that just now? I think it moved.

How can it be this fresh?

What are you doing here?

Ugh, the smell of food.

That helicopter or freezer truck, it's all the same.

How is a 5-hour highway drive the same as a 1-hour helicopter ride?

Anyway, the best catches of the day all end up at Noryangjin.

Is that it? Oh, that's the end?

No, there's still a long way to go.

Then you can taste it yourself and choose, Manager Jang.

Good, Hui Won.

Is it the President, or me?

Me, or him?

- Look. - Look.

- Is it the President, or me? - Taste it.

- Just take one bite. - Smell it, Hui Won.

Stop! Stop!

If you don't want to get sliced like raw fish, get out right now.

Get out.

Get out!

Get out!

Get out quickly!

Go!

Beautiful thoughts,

good thoughts.

It's bland broth, totally bland.

Isn't this just soup with chili paste?

- Is this from White Lighthouse now... - Abandoned souls,

follow me.

What did he say?

Didn't you voluntarily come in on weekends, saying you were motivated?

From what I see, Manager Nah,

your determination lasts not three days, but one.

If he keeps that up, he'll get scolded by the Team Leader.

Oh.

Oh, that startled me.

The chair was so comfortable, so I closed my eyes without realizing it.

Our company benefits have gotten way too good lately.

I wonder if there'll be anything left at this rate?

But it looks like Manager Nah enjoys those benefits the most.

That's right. At the last beef dinner, you ate like there was no tomorrow.

And I saw you even had two bowls of jjamppong.

You clock in at the lounge every day just to use the recliner sofa.

Assistant Manager Choi, isn't that sofa meant to be used?

Anyway, since the President came, the benefits are on another level.

As they say, a fish rots from the head down.

Our team is first-grade water!

First-grade!

Are you sure?

That it's first-grade?

Team Leader, where did you pop up from?

Did you set an alarm or something?

If the manager's always gossiping, what do you expect from the rest?

Haven't you heard? 'The pupil surpasses the master.'

Our team members are so capable.

You sure talk a good game. Alright, let's get back to work.

Unless you want to work weekends again.

Yes.

By the way, Team Leader,

where have you been going?

You've been away a lot. Don't tell me...

I think I saw you in the lounge earlier, too.

I also passed by the lounge...

Alright, let's get back to work diligently. Fighting!

Jeez.

- Saw her in the lounge? - You did?

- I did. - In the lounge?

[Round 4]

Alright.

Stop growling at each other, drink up and make up.

Who's growling?

Come on.

Huh? Uh, hold on.

It's not about drinking like this.

It's about cheers and making up.

Cheers!

I'm drinking this time too.

No, no.

Ugh, this doubles my stress. Doubles it.

You know, when I get stressed, my stomach really acts up.

Oh no, here it is right now.

Ugh, I need the restroom.

While I'm in the restroom, you two make up on your own.

After all that cheering. Cheers!

Sit down.

Oh no, I'm not gonna make it.

Did you confess?

Do I have to say it?

You haven't done it yet, huh?

I haven't done it. Yet.

You mean you couldn't do it.

Why? Because you're dealing with me.

How can one night compete with fifteen years?

Do you know what Hui Won likes to eat?

Her hobbies or habits? Neighborhoods she frequents? Regular shops?

Ah, what?

You don't even properly know about Hui Won, and then,

you've even confessed?

What?

You seem to occasionally forget that I'm the company president.

Wow, petty.

Didn't we agree to drop the ranks and play fair?

Another bottle of soju here, please.

Just bring three bottles.

Looks like we'll finish them quickly.

Why are they both doing this to me?

Why is the President making it so obvious at work?

What if someone sees?

And what's with him all of a sudden?

What if he gets fired from the company for competing with the President?

Jeez, why is everyone like this?

I'm tired. Seriously.

Seems like alcohol doesn't sit well with you, Assistant Manager Cha.

Go on.

- You are drunk. - Drink.

How much did you drink in such a short time?

President, do you know how petty the President is?

- I'm the President? - He gave me this much paperwork

and told me to sort it out within a week.

No.

You are saying things they won't even remember.

Let's go home. Let's go home.

Mister, I didn't call a designated driver. Leave. Hurry.

What are you talking about?

- Let's go home. - No.

Excuse me!

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Assistant Manager Cha, you call a designated driver.

I don't have a car.

What, you're sleeping now?

Let's go home. Let's go home. Huh?

Ow, hot.

Home...

Let's go home.

[Game Over] Who am I talking to?

Wait...

President.

What is all this?

I didn't know what you'd like, so I bought everything.

Chicken, pizza, tteokbokki, sushi...

And this... desserts and salad too.

All of this?

But what exactly is your favorite food?

- What? - Your hobbies?

I mean, not those random places, just neighborhoods you often go to,

or regular shops you visit.

Did you come here in the middle of the night to ask that?

Assistant Manager Cha knows everything.

He knows you can't handle spice

so you eat malatang at level 0.5.

He knows you choose spicy cold noodles over plain cold noodles after meat.

He knows everything. Only I don't know.

Are you still not done with that childish ego fight?

Please stop.

What if someone starts suspecting something?

Ms. Jang Hui Won, is that really so important?

Of course it is.

If our relationship is exposed, I'm the one who'll be judged.

No, no, no.

What you're worried about won't happen.

I'll block it all for you.

You...

Ugh, jeez.

I told them to make up, but what time is it now, seriously?

Ugh, I'm stressed. She's not off work already, is she?

Hold on.

Oh.

Oh, Secretary Go.

I didn't just pick it up. I bought it for you.

Thank you. It's warm.

Secretary Go, you haven't left work yet?

I suppose this is the fate of a secretary serving the President.

What about you, Team Leader Bang?

Are you working this late?

I suppose this is the fate of a team leader guiding a team.

People call me ruthless, but I enjoy working.

Because mistakes aren't tolerated.

That's admirable.

Not ruthless, just impressive.

This is the way I see you, Team Leader.

Take it.

That seems like an important call.

Completely clueless.

Then excuse me.

Okay.

Yes.

What? The President?

Why there? I just took him home.

Jeez, sober up before you leave.

You're in no condition to even take a taxi.

Why did you drink so much? What if you get sick again?

I didn't want to lose.

What's so important about winning or losing?

It matters.

In the men's world, that's crucial.

Anyway, I won't disturb you. Get some rest.

I can't sleep.

Can I just stay

five more minutes?

Alright.

But only five minutes.

Do you remember when we met in Itaewon?

I remember.

How could I forget?

For me, that day

was really wonderful.

Laughing and chatting together,

drinking and playing games,

even running away together.

All of it felt even better

because I was with you, Ms. Jang Hui Won.

Whether I'm a boss,

an employee, or some heir,

just

man to man...

No, man to woman...

I know what you're struggling with.

All I can say right now is this.

I won't let you face any situation alone.

And I will absolutely never

let go of your hand again.

When did you get here?

Drink this, first.

It's exactly what you need right now.

Ugh, my head feels like it's splitting.

What happened last night?

Don't you remember? At all?

I don't remember anything.

Why? Did something happen?

Pray to the heavens.

That's better for your mental health.

What nonsense are you talking about?

I seriously thought I was dreaming.

I definitely took you home last night.

But when I came to,

I was taking you home again.

What kind of nonsense is this?

What nonsense? Seems like you're the drunk one.

- Ah, my throat hurts too. - I'm sure it does.

[Jang Hui Won]

You got home safely last night, right?

Is your hangover any better?

What? How did she know all this?

What is all this?

I didn't know what you'd like.

Chicken, pizza, tteokbokki, even salad.

I can't sleep.

Can I just stay five more minutes?

I'm sorry. He kept trying to call a taxi.

No, this is my duty.

You should head inside.

Who are you? I haven't called a taxi yet.

This is a deluxe taxi, so fares are quadruple.

Then I won't take it.

I'll take a regular one.

What do you mean?

- Get in quick. - Who are you?

Take care now.

Okay, then.

Mister.

- Yes. - Yes, then...

Huh?

No.

- Ugh. - Ugh.

You remember now?

Gosh, I'm so anxious.

Oh, you startled me.

Tastes good.

Ugh.

Good work.

But I think...

I'm sorry about yesterday, in many ways.

Why didn't you pick up your phone?

You go on ahead.

See you later.

[OB-GYN]

[OB-GYN] Found it through a director I know.

Call them.

It's a safe and reliable place.

Did you come here to give me this?

If you'd answered my call, I wouldn't have come.

Aren't you going to get rid of it anyway?

Mom, I'm going to keep the baby.

I told you I'm keeping this baby.

Ugh, jeez.

I thought

you came because of the texts you sent last time.

Guess I was a fool to hope for that.

What does the baby's father do?

Enough. I don't want to talk about it now.

I'm not even curious.

Hearing about some reckless guy who got someone else's daughter pregnant won't help.

He's not that kind of person.

Since when can you read people?

What are you going to do now?

Are you thinking about marriage?

Marriage is still...

No, not him, it's me.

I haven't thought that far ahead.

Exactly.

You got yourself into this mess without planning to get married, didn't you?

Oh, my head.

I raised you wrong.

Mom!

Fine. I won't interfere.

Whether you regret having the baby

or cry over a man,

would you even listen if I stopped you?

It's your life, so you handle it now.

I'm staying out of it.

Mom.

Oh, jeez.

With the recent Taehan Liquor issues,

the board's mood was tense?

Oh, yes.

But it seems it's been relatively well managed.

The stock price stabilized quickly,

and the board meeting went smoothly without major disputes.

That's how it should be.

Du Jun isn't exactly irresponsible.

So, the thing is,

I've been feeling stiff and pretty bored lately.

How about I start getting back to work?

- Back to work? - Yes.

Why? Is it a bit too early?

No, I'm fine with it.

I'm just concerned about your health.

Your heart condition,

and blood pressure need careful management.

It sounds like you're advising against it.

Huh? That's not it.

- What I meant was... - Oh dear.

Just joking, joking.

I never knew my little brother cared so much about my health.

- Yes. - Let's drink.

Yes.

Let's drink.

Good.

I expected that.

Don't worry. I'll speak with him.

Father-in-law.

If he would just stay put, no one would get hurt.

He keeps bringing this on himself.

Oh, I'm exhausted.

I shouldn't have suggested it. I'm the only one suffering.

Did you get home safely yesterday?

Actually, not really.

- What? - I said not really.

You're not telling me you don't remember a single thing from yesterday, huh?

What happened yesterday?

Ugh, I knew it.

In all my years,

I've never seen a messy drunk as bad as you, Assistant Manager Cha.

No, I'm not a messy drunk.

Even at company dinners, I've handled my alcohol well.

Oh, really?

Then why did you mistake the office for home?

While searching for you,

do you know how many elevator trips I made?

I did that?

You asked how I found your address.

Oh, and said you wanted to be friends.

All while giving me that look.

How could you forget?

Oh, come on.

Weren't you drunk, Secretary Go?

Guess you drank too much.

I didn't even drink.

It was all recorded on the CCTV here.

Secretary Go.

You're joking because you want to get closer to me, right?

This is me.

See you next time. Have a good day.

Another annoying person.

Jeez.

Father.

Huh?

What brings you here?

You're returning to work?

Yeah.

I wondered why you've been so fearless lately. Now I see the reason.

You know Han Jun's memorial day is coming up soon, right?

Give me Taehan Liquor.

It was supposed to be Han Jun's anyway.

What if I say no?

You'll see for yourself why you have no choice but to say yes.

It's fine. Forget it.

What do I expect from Mom?

Haven't I always lived my own life?

Hui Won.

When did you get here?

Can we talk for a minute?

You had drinks with the President yesterday, right?

Huh?

- Yeah. - Is something wrong?

You've been acting strange lately.

- What have I done? - You keep acting childish

while competing with the President.

Even had a pride contest over drinks.

If you're trying to save face for me, just stop.

I feel like I'm the only weird one between you two.

What if I don't want that?

- Huh? - Do you really not know

why I'm like this?

Hello, Manager Jang.

Hello.

Sorry, what did you just say?

Nothing.

Let's talk another time.

Check-out is at 11 a.m.,

and the elevators are straight ahead on your left.

Enjoy your stay.

Busy?

He hasn't confessed to Hui Won already, has he?

Hwang Mi Ran,

why did you end up falling for Cha Min Uk?

[Myeongwoon University Pop-Up Bar]

[7 Years Ago] Cheers!

[7 Years Ago]

Try this!

I won't get drunk today.

By the way, where's Sang Woo?

No idea. Maybe he's camped out at the PC bang again?

You said he pulled an all-nighter there yesterday.

Yeah. If he weren't so handsome, I'd have dumped him.

Ugh, I'm exhausted.

I invited a friend from another department. Can we drink together?

Friend? Who? Is he a guy?

He's a friend from middle school.

He went on an exchange program

and is now back in Korea for a short while.

Oh, Jang Hui Won, you have a guy friend like that?

Hey, invite him! Call him now!

I already did.

Huh? Min Uk?

- It's been a while. - Yeah.

I told you about her.

This is Mi Ran.

Oh.

Hi.

Hi.

Wanna drink?

What do you like to drink?

We're beer people, but soju-beer mix is fine too.

No, I like beer too.

- Really? - Yeah.

Thank you.

[Hangover Remedy]

Oh.

I'll go get more beer.

Stay put. I'll get it.

You'll need more of this, right?

Hey.

What's with him? Why's he so sweet?

The kindness just flows out of him like breathing.

Min Uk's kind, right?

Considerate, too.

Yeah.

[Pop-up Bar] I'll take a beer, sir.

What?

[2 Years Ago]

Huh? Cha Min Uk.

Jeez, you are drinking alone again.

Where's Hui Won?

She's working late today.

Oh.

Is there ever a day Jang Hui Won isn't busy?

True.

You're the best, as always.

You need to raise your standards for men.

Don't just focus on their looks.

Huh? I don't just focus on their looks.

Masculinity, manliness,

things like that...

A macho man?

No.

Not that extreme.

Whatever. I'm done dating men.

Don't believe you.

You said the exact same thing last month.

I'm serious.

Here.

[Hangover Remedy]

Darn it.

What?

What?

- I think I'm drunk. - Huh?

I'm drunk. Really drunk.

Where are you going?

[Busy?]

[Busy?]

[My Hangover Remedy]

[Finding the Next Try Beer]

The next Try Beer.

Okay.

How about we all grab a beer tonight?

Aw, you all heard me. Are you pretending you didn't?

Don't get scolded by your wife again.

Go home early.

Right, your little bunnies

are waiting for you at home, Manager Nah.

But why beer all of a sudden? What's special today?

No, no. Not a team dinner.

Market research for the competition.

Come on.

Isn't it lonely preparing for the competition alone?

Instead, how about we all go for it

together as a team?

Last time, when we suggested everyone try individually, didn't you say it was fine?

Assistant Manager Choi, I'm just like a reed.

My mind changes all the time.

Alright, last chance.

Anyone want to join me? Hands up!

Really, no one? Nice!

I'll just team up with another department.

Really? You'll regret missing this chance with me.

Try ask Manager Jang.

- Manager Jang? - She's not here. You never know.

She might say yes.

You think? No, Manager Jang wouldn't want to team up with me.

Why the sudden put-down? It doesn't suit you.

Just ask her.

Your styles are complete opposites. That might actually create synergy.

You think so?

No. I'll do it alone.

Shall I ask on your behalf?

I think Manager Jang is considering whether to do this as a team too.

Really?

Well, I'm grateful.

Se Hyeon, let's do it together.

Let's work properly with people whose minds are aligned.

Jealous?

He's excited. Just excited.

Looks like they fought today.

Yes.

Let's just reinforce the financial structure sheet from last time.

Please proceed at your discretion, Director.

The deadline is... just a moment.

[To-do List]

[First Fetal Abnormality Screening (4:30 PM)]

Let's set it for tomorrow afternoon.

Okay.

It's today.

[Jang Hui Won] Are you feeling okay?

I'll contact you after finishing today's schedule.

Du Jun!

- What? - The Chairman...

It appears sudden shock or stress strained his heart.

He's over the hump with a quick fix,

but his heart function was already significantly weakened.

If this happens again, it could be very dangerous.

What happened? He collapsed suddenly?

Du Jun.

I don't know.

He doesn't tell me who he meets

or what he does these days.

I'll try to find out.

Stay with Madam.

Honey.

Dear.

Huh? Hui Won?

[OB-GYN]

Ah, today's the day.

But why is she alone?

[President Kang Du Jun]

Sorry, something urgent came up.

Let's go to the hospital together next time.

What? He promised he wouldn't let me go alone.

He's busy. It can't be helped.

Min Uk.

I saw you going in alone while passing by.

Didn't you say it was an important test today?

Yeah, but I'm fine alone.

Don't worry.

I'll stay until your results come out.

Is it alright with you?

Sure.

Oh.

I looked it up,

and apparently drinking chocolate milk before the fetal movement test

makes it easier.

Oh, you mean that sweet stuff makes the baby more active?

Yeah.

It's not scientifically proven, apparently.

Really?

But perfect timing since I was craving sugar.

Such good timing.

Didn't you have an appointment?

I postponed it.

If it's important, you should go.

It's fine. I can stay here.

No, I need to stay until he's awake.

As his wife, I can watch over him right here.

But Du Jun, you have to keep the promise you made.

I'll call you right away when Dad wakes up.

Your dad was snoring a little while ago.

See? He just fell asleep.

If you're still at the hospital, I'm heading there now.

Ms. Jang Hui Won, please come into the 3D ultrasound room.

Okay.

Guardian, please come in too.

There.

I'm hot, I am...

How can one night compete with fifteen years?

You only come to me when you need help, don't you?

Who else would I ask for a favor like this besides you?

Do you like Jang Hui Won?

I plan to confess to her seriously soon.

Give this to me.

Thanks.

It's really fine.

You can't catch a cold. You should have dressed warmly.

You don't have to come. It's all over.

[Epilogue]

You had a rough day yesterday,

so clear your mind and get some proper rest.

Eat well even when I'm not there.

This is tonic, so take it 30 minutes after meals, got it?

Got it.

Well, look at you.

You're smiling.

You get annoyed, then suddenly laugh,

get angry, then suddenly laugh, then suddenly get annoyed...

You have quite a few personalities hidden inside you, huh?

You finished the whole bowl. You won't feel sick anymore. Sleep well.

Why are you peeking at my texts?

What? Did you eat samgyetang with Manager Jang? Is that it?

- No, nothing like that. - Nothing?

But it is, right?

Last time, you made a fuss about Manager Jang being jealous.

Now it's samgyetang?

She said she doesn't take just anyone to that samgyetang place.

But she took me there, so I must be more than just anyone.

She just took you there to feed you

because you looked exhausted, right?

No! I'm telling you, it's not!

She said she'd even lend me her shoulder for five minutes.

Will you do that if you're not close?

Yep, I could lend my shoulder to a stranger all day long.

You're too easy, way too easy. Seriously.

And you shouldn't lend your shoulder.

You can't lend it.

Why? Because you don't have any shoulders. None at all.

My shoulders are broader than you think. This is no joke.

That is the funniest thing.

I'm so stressed out right now.

I think I need to take that tonic.

Take that. There are two.

It's tonic, one for your mom and one for you. So give it to her.

Don't take it all by yourself.

- Really? - And the accounting team

deposited your bonus yesterday.

Set up an alert for the transactions.

You don't even know how to do it, even now. Like an old man, seriously.

President Kang Du Jun.

Once again, thank you so much.

Du Jun.

I love you.

Creepy.

Go home quickly.

That's how you show love!

Ah, that grumpy man.

Seriously, who even notices that?

Thanks.

It's fine. Plenty of pregnant women go to the hospital alone.

Could she be hiding that they went together?

Read and ignored? He read it and ignored it?

I think the one caught in between isn't me, but the President.

Whether it was one night or fifteen years, I don't really care about that stuff.

[Min Uk] Can you just

focus on me for now?

I hope the person you really need by your side right now is me.

I thought I was naturally the one you needed, Ms. Jang Hui Won.

But today, it suddenly occurred to me that it might not be me.

I confessed to Hui Won.

And I'm confident I can handle it.
