FILING FOR LOVE

Hello, everyone.

I'm Park A-jeong, VP Jeon Jae-yeol's former executive assistant.

Your secretary? What on earth...

What is all this?

What trick are you pulling again?

It's not a trick, Father.

She made the brave call to take a stand for our company.

Are all Haemu shareholder meetings this haphazard and unplanned?

Do you allow just anyone to stand and speak?

I'm here because the shareholders have a right to know.

Only shareholders are allowed to speak at...

According to the report I'm holding in my hand

when VP Jeon Jae-yeol was CEO of Haemu Pharmaceutical

he transferred billions of won without authorization

to the medical foundation he established.

However, no audit was carried out. Actually...

it was practically impossible.

That's because

Joo In-a, the Head of Audit, who was responsible for investigating

covered up the transfers.

Do you admit to it, Ms. Joo?

It's true that Haemu Pharmaceutical donated to Jei Medical Foundation.

But I concluded there were no issues with legal proceedings.

Just because you conclude that there are no issues

does that mean you don't have to conduct an audit?

Auditing is about risk management.

I judged that the risk of conducting the audit

was greater than the risk of not conducting it.

OH HYUN-YOUNG JEON JAE-YEOL

Political and cliquish factions exist within Haemu regarding succession.

I thought the investigation would become politically charged

putting Haemu into even worse turmoil.

My point is

who gives you the right to decide that?

It's my job to make such decisions.

How can we trust Ms. Joo's decision?

VP Jeon Jae-yeol and Head of Audit Joo In-a

were in a romantic relationship.

Was Ms. Joo's decision based solely on the company's interests?

What if she made that choice

for VP Jeon Jae-yeol's sake?

Goodness, what on earth is all this about?

Why didn't you do anything?

What were you doing while the company ended up in this state?

- Father. - Sir.

- Father. - Father.

Are you all right?

- Oh, no. - Father!

At the Haemu Group shareholder meeting held today

allegations surfaced that the Head of Audit covered up

VP Jeon Jae-yeol's misconduct, sparking major controversy.

Haemu Group President Jeon Moo-tae collapsed during the meeting

which was immediately suspended.

Haemu Group convened an emergency board meeting

to launch a wide-scale investigation into the allegations.

With concerns over both the chairman's health

and management ethics intensifying

Haemu Group's succession battle has again fallen into turmoil.

Gosh, with the company in this mess

I could barely swallow my food.

You emptied your bowl today.

Goodness gracious.

I heard the basement press room filled up after the news came out.

It looks like all the journalists are here.

I think it's drawing more attention because of the VP's scandal.

Ms. Joo's personal information is already all over the internet.

Oh, gosh. Guys.

Let's watch what we say in public.

If your wife or boyfriend asks, just say you don't know anything.

- We never know how it'll spread. - Okay.

It's true we don't really know anything.

About Ms. Park's report...

How much of it do you think is true?

If someone like Ms. Joo covered it up

don't you think there's still something between her and the VP?

There isn't.

How do you know that, Ms. Yoon?

I know who Ms. Joo is dating now.

- What? - It's not our VP.

- Who is it? - Who is it?

It's someone we all know.

- Someone we know? Who? - I don't know anyone.

- What? - Who is it?

- Who is it? - Who is it?

- Who is it? - Yes, who is it? Tell us.

- Take a look around. - What?

- Come on. - You can't just walk off.

- You need to tell us. - What do you know?

- Tell me. - Talk to us.

HEAD OF AUDIT

They've been keeping her all day.

SPECIAL INVESTIGATION COMMITTEE

State your relationship with VP Jeon

when you reviewed the Jei Medical Foundation case.

We weren't in any relationship.

You two used to date.

We weren't at the time.

No one who was a couple goes back to being just strangers.

Could there be any worse relationship than a couple who broke up?

It's worse off than strangers.

VP Jeon said he still had feelings for you.

I did not.

Even when you were reviewing the medical foundation case?

Even then.

Here are Jei Medical Foundation's shareholding records

meeting minutes of decision-making processes at Haemu Pharmaceutical

sponsorship approvals, and fund usage records.

You'll see for yourself if you read those.

As CEO at the time, I played no part in running the foundation

nor influenced Haemu Pharmaceutical's decision-making process.

All funds were used appropriately

within their means.

If there were no issues in the process

then there was no fault on Ms. Joo's part to decide

not to investigate.

Whether she was at fault or not will be decided in court.

There clearly are grounds for an argument.

I think we should find out exactly why she didn't look into it.

Don't you think?

It'll be more complicated than we thought.

What did Joo In-a say?

She's maintaining that she made an official call.

Why is she still fighting when we've come this far?

Whether Jae-yeol's guilty or not

won't matter once news of the scandal gets out.

Bring Joo In-a down at all costs.

- Yes, sir. - Okay.

I'm with Haesin Daily. Can we talk?

Hello, this is XTM.

Are you available for an interview?

The VP's mistress

- should rot in a pit forever. - Gosh, it's gross.

Hello, Ms. Joo.

Gosh.

You are a beauty.

Oh, I'm Park Dae-geun with Daily Hansung.

I have nothing to say. Sorry.

You grew up in Mipo, didn't you?

You were quite a popular figure there, too.

I heard the smart, pretty girl

grew up in a messed-up family.

Daily Hansung?

You probably didn't know because you work for a media-like outlet

that just copies social media posts

and writes clickbait articles without doing real reporting.

This area is restricted to reporters.

Security?

An outsider got in.

- I need you to leave. - Sorry.

My bad.

Hop in.

Wow, didn't that just feel like we were filming an action movie?

I'd call it a romance, not an action film

because I appeared at just the right moment.

Let's call it a romantic action film.

How do you feel?

It must be hard being questioned all day long.

It was nothing.

I was a nude model for a long time.

It was not tough one bit.

She said she wasn't tired one bit.

Oh, gosh. I dozed off.

I didn't snore, did I?

You did, actually.

Did I really?

Did I snore?

You're lying, aren't you?

Are you serious?

Did I really snore?

Really? Honestly? No, I didn't, did I?

Was I really snoring? Seriously?

- Did I... - You didn't.

You didn't snore. It was a joke.

But you were dead asleep, though.

As soon as you get home

take a shower then jump right into bed.

You nag too much.

I'll do that.

Drop me off over there.

Thanks for the ride.

Don't get out. Go on home.

No, I'll walk you home first.

You dropped me off. Now let me see you drive off.

I'll leave after I see you get inside.

I want to see you off.

Let's do this, then. We'll wave.

Bye. Take care.

Aren't I good at walking backward?

There are reporters outside your building.

It's freezing cold.

I'll send you some photos.

Look into someone for me.

- If you're done, come out and eat. - Okay.

It's a bit big, but it works. How do I look?

It's not too big at all. You look pretty.

My gosh. What is all this? It's a total feast.

My sisters came by last weekend.

They made kimchi, so I asked for some to share with you.

They brought enough food to fill a whole fridge.

Do people make seasoned cockles when making kimchi?

No, they brought this because it's my favorite.

Cockles are hard to clean

so I tell my mom to stop making them, but she still does it.

She could've made just a little.

She makes way too much, and I can never eat it all.

Noh Ki-jun.

Your family adores you.

Too much for my liking.

Too much love is a nuisance, too.

What a spoiled thing to say.

Thanks for the food.

What are your sisters like?

I want to hear about them.

My older sisters...

- They're just sisters. - What?

There's not much to say.

- Oh, wait. - What?

- My sisters' kids are adorable. - Let me see.

Here.

That's so cute.

How sweet...

HAEMU'S BROTHERLY STRIFE: FEMME FATALE AUDITOR AT THE CENTER

Guys, did you all read...

You're reading it.

The Head of Audit is accused of an affair with VP Jeon Jae-yeol.

Does infidelity run in her family?

It's worth noting Joo was born from an extramarital affair.

But the string of men surrounding her who shook an entire corporation

doesn't end here.

According to my research...

"It has been confirmed that she is dating Noh

one of her subordinates in the Audit Team."

What's even more shocking is that Noh was in charge of investigating

the Haemu Pharmaceutical case

that's at the center of the controversy."

We could get something if we piece this together nicely.

I was getting annoyed at how things were dragging on.

HAEMU'S BROTHERLY STRIFE

Mr. Noh.

Is this article about you? That you're her lover?

What's this about Ms. Joo being born out of wedlock?

The reporter went way over the line.

Mr. Noh, where are you going?

I swear, it's the truth.

- No way. - No way.

Come on. I confirmed it.

Are you sure?

The two went into Noh's place at night.

She was there for a long time.

That's a scoop.

- What? - Was she really born out of wedlock?

A friend of mine is from Mipo.

The mother and daughter duo were social outcasts.

Oh, dear...

"The poor Head of Audit who followed in her parents' steps."

Isn't that hilarious?

You could turn it into a movie.

Watch what you say.

Oh, my gosh.

- This is Mr. Noh Ki-jun. - I see.

Does being a reporter

give you the right to print one's personal business

and gossip about it in the open?

What's with that glare?

Do you want to punch me?

She isn't someone

the likes of you can talk about so recklessly.

Is this true love?

She was with you for a long time.

Did you punch me? Did you see that?

- Yes. - You saw that?

Did you see him punch me first?

- Yes. - Have you lost your mind?

Hey, you.

So what if you're a reporter?

- Oh, no. - Stop him.

- Get him off him. - Gosh.

BOO SE-YOUNG, HEAD OF HR

What is this? Is this for real?

HAEMU'S BROTHERLY STRIFE, FEMME FATALE AUDITOR AT THE CENTER

You're the one who told me

to take a good look at who's really falling apart.

Who do you think that is?

I don't think it's you or me

or even Jeon Jae-yeol.

Ki-jun seems to be the one who's falling apart.

What are you saying?

Jeon Sung-yeol plans to stick the foundation case on Ki-jun.

He'll make it look like Jeon Jae-yeol ordered your team to cover it up.

That would be the cleanest outcome.

I find that silly.

How could Ki-jun and Jeon Jae-yeol be accomplices?

Hang on.

Maybe they are accomplices

in loving the same woman to death.

Is that it?

You don't seem to get it.

The word "accomplice"

refers to you and Jeon Sung-yeol.

You frame people by twisting facts and exaggerating

to turn someone into a scapegoat.

People who conspire to do such things

are called accomplices.

All you did by siding with Jeon Sung-yeol

was bring down the friend who helped you when you were in need.

Was that your plan, too?

Not only did you ruin Jeon Jae-yeol's life

but you're the type who brings trouble to people around you.

Do you even know Ki-jun is at the police station?

He assaulted the journalist who exposed you.

Settle?

I have no intention of settling. That's final.

Check the CCTV and witnesses and see who punched whom first.

He attacked me, and I was only defending myself.

Sure. Whatever.

I won't settle, either.

Oh, and I'll sue this guy here for defamation.

He brought up someone's personal life that's unrelated to the case

to write a malicious piece.

"Malicious"? How dare you call it that?

Using personal details to paint a nice story is what I do!

- It's in the public interest! - "Public interest"?

How is that public interest?

She's not someone you can define with a few lines of journalism.

The kind of life she had, how she fought to survive

what choices she had made, and how those choices tormented her

were all taken out of context.

You made a spectacle of her wounds, and you call that...

What kind of public interest is that?

Goodness.

You must like her a lot.

Yes, I like her a lot.

Because she's a good person.

You can scorn and mock all you want

but you'll never hurt her.

I know who she truly is

and I'll protect her until the end.

I'm not making any settlements.

Ms. Joo?

What the...

You startled me.

Have some tofu.

- Does it hurt? - Yes, be gentle.

Don't be a drama queen.

I have thin and soft skin. That's why.

If you're that frail and soft

why would you go around punching people?

Do you think you're a kid? Why would you get into a fight?

You did well.

I felt great.

I should've been the one to teach him a lesson.

Reporter Park was really lucky.

He should be glad I'm the one who beat him up.

Take a pill to make sure this doesn't fester before bed.

- Okay? - What?

Wait.

Hey.

Are you leaving?

I should. I have my own place.

It's really cold out.

I drove here. I'll put the heater on full blast.

It's late. You might doze off at the wheel.

I'm perfectly fine.

Don't you worry and sleep well.

See you.

I have a tree.

Shall we decorate my Christmas tree?

You have a Christmas tree at home?

Wow, it's beautiful.

You know

this is the first time I've put up a Christmas tree.

Really?

- Didn't you have one at home? - No.

I had no room for anything sparkly.

From now on

we'll do this together every year.

We should hang gems next year like gold and silver trinkets.

Gold is too expensive now.

I even got a star for you. Getting gold will be a piece of cake.

You're right. I also prefer gold to a star.

I knew it.

It's so pretty.

INCOMING CALL

Hello, Joo In-a speaking.

Hello, I'm Ki-jun's big sister.

New articles and comments keep coming up

but Ki-jun won't take any of our calls.

Even if we were to get through and ask about it

I don't think he'd tell us anything.

We tried...

We couldn't take it. So here we are.

I see.

What kind of person

are you really?

- Pardon? - Well...

You nursed our Ki-jun back to health

so we assumed you two had feelings for each other.

There's talk that you're the VP's mistress or something...

The heck...

We're not here to start a fight.

As Ki-jun's family, we want to know the facts.

Our mom took to her bed because she couldn't handle the shock.

- We didn't know what to tell her. - Ms. Joo.

What happens to Ki-jun now?

From what we read online

he punched the journalist who wrote about you.

Is that true?

Our Ki-jun

never got into a fight growing up.

Why would he suddenly... My heart might explode.

Is something actually going on at work?

Will Ki-jun get penalized or something?

Ms. Joo?

You're Ki-jun's superior as well.

Is there something

you could do to help him?

Hand in your company ID while the investigation's ongoing.

Hey, Ki-jun.

Have you heard?

So I'm going upstairs to be interviewed.

I called in case you got worried.

Okay.

I'm fine, so don't worry.

Let's get something nice to eat after I'm done.

Sure. We can do that. What do you want to eat?

A toasted sandwich?

Let's eat that toasted sandwich again.

You're eating that all the time.

Ki-jun.

Yes?

No matter what I say from now on

it means that I love you.

My heart skipped a beat.

I know you love me.

I love you, too.

So don't ever feel hurt.

Ms. Joo, what brings you to...

- What's this? - What's going on?

- Did she lock the door? - What?

- What's this? - What's up with her?

- What's this about? - Joo In-a?

Hello.

I'm Joo In-a, Haemu Group's Head of Audit.

I'm here to explain where I stand regarding the many suspicions.

Will you make a statement about yesterday's article?

Is it true that you're dating your subordinate?

Did you really cover up the VP's corruption?

It's not true that a certain employee covered up the corruption.

Mr. Noh actually raised concerns about the matter under suspicion.

Why was there no investigation?

I put a stop to it.

I abused my authority.

I told the employee not to do anything.

He was just being used

by me.

Why did you give such an instruction?

Why did you use your subordinate to cover up a case?

I did so to protect VP Jeon Jae-yeol.

My personal feelings clouded my judgment as Head of Audit.

I will take full responsibility for it.

I apologize.

What do you mean by "personal feelings"?

Are you admitting to your affair with the VP?

3 MONTHS LATER

FORWARDER: SAEMUN INTERNATIONAL

VOLUME ERROR

Look at her staring fiercely at everything.

That's why people call her the human scanner.

You can tell that she was in the Audit Team.

Did you see her picking out a fault with a shipment to Europe last week?

So people who are good at their job are good no matter where they are.

She surely is competent.

That must be why the vice president fell for her.

That was the seventh time today.

DIMENSION RECOGNITION ERROR

It's definitely on the rise.

MARCH 3RD, 2026 7 DIMENSION RECOGNITION ERRORS

Your call cannot be connected. You will be redirected to voicemail.

After the beep, you will be charged...

EXCLUSIVE: THE PROSECUTION FINDS JEON JAE-YEOL OF HAEMU

FREE FROM ALL SUSPICION INCLUDING PROFESSIONAL NEGLIGENCE

Who told you it was okay to go ahead with this?

You need to file a planning report before doing this.

Audit Team Three handles matters that come through reports

so it is hard to file a planning report each time.

Who told you it had to be every time?

This is Sales Team One we're talking about.

Don't you know that the head, Mr. Cheon, is the immediate junior

of VP Jeon Sung-yeol?

I decided that an investigation was necessary in the process

of confirming the authenticity of the report, and...

And who are you to decide?

- Leader of Team Three. - Yes, sir.

Come over here.

- Right now? - Yes.

Yes, sure.

Goodness. I never thought

I'd stick around doing this job long enough to miss Ms. Joo.

Tell me about it.

Ms. Joo also yelled at us, but everything she said was right.

But now, everything in the Audit Team has become political.

I hear it's all the same in other departments, too.

The entire business is under Jeon Sung-yeol's reign.

Good grief. What is happening to this company?

Good work, Mr. Noh.

You must be feeling down, so why don't we grab a drink?

- He's not here. - What?

He ran out as soon as the clock hit six o'clock.

Again?

Where has he been going in such a hurry lately?

Let him be. He wouldn't want to be in the office even for a second.

People still gossip about Ms. Joo, both online and offline.

It's a wonder that he didn't quit his job.

Ms. Joo was really cruel back then.

How could she say she only used him in front of everyone?

Gosh. I hope he comes around soon enough.

Why don't we set him up on a blind date?

- Yes. - That sounds nice.

What do you say, Ms. Yoon?

Is there anyone you know?

He's right.

I don't have friends.

What about any older girls?

It'd be weird if she were younger than you.

- Think about it. - Anyone, Ms. Pyun?

No.

I just got on the Olympic Expressway.

I'll be right on the highway after getting into the interchange.

Okay, I'm already on the Gyeongbu Expressway

and heading to Seoul.

I'll get off the ramp soon, too

so let's meet at Giheung today.

I'll be at the Mannamui Gwangjang Service Area in five minutes.

Just give up.

Come on.

I left really early today.

MANNAMUI GWANGJANG SERVICE AREA

Come on. Why do you always drive so far to come here?

I said I'd come over.

Can't you wait a little in front of the center?

Or we could meet at a service area nearer to you.

By then, the northbound expressway will have less traffic.

Work must be tough enough for you.

I told you not to drive so far from there.

Anyway, since I lost again, the snacks are on me.

Then why don't we buy some sausage and rice cake skewers

and get some rest over there?

What?

Why would you eat skewers over there?

Let's go.

You know what? I'm seriously starting to get mad.

These files are all confidential

so I couldn't lay them out in the service area.

In that case

you could've just flatly said we were coming here to work.

Did you have to give a flirtatious look and say

"Should we go there?"

My eyes have always been rather flirtatious.

Gosh, you always need to do things your way.

Right? You did this when you lied before the cameras that you used me.

He was just being used.

You also did that when you decided to move to the logistics center

without telling me.

In-a, just hand in your resignation.

You'll get a disciplinary hearing and be exiled to some far-off post.

Every step of it will be

devastating and humiliating to endure.

No.

I will face my consequences and be disciplined

to take responsibility for everything I have done.

But I do have one favor to ask of you, Se-young.

Can you appoint me

to the logistics center?

Joo In-a always has a plan.

It's a plan of her own.

And I'm simply a part of her plan.

Don't say it like that.

A part of my plan?

You are...

a variable.

You're a completely unexpected lucky variable

which I had never planned for or even saw coming.

At least you know how to talk smoothly.

- Was that your father? - I think the issue with the machine

is due to a defective part.

Are you not going to pick up his calls now?

Think about it.

From what I overheard last time, he just wanted a meal with you.

Are you listening?

And why do you keep

picking out the sausages and giving me the rice cake pieces?

Then there's no point in eating the sausage and rice cake skewer.

- But I guess it's good. - That's it!

That might be Jeon Sung-yeol's plan.

He's picking out just the sausages and keeping only what's good

to throw away the rest.

Let's liquidate five subsidiaries that are suffering

from structural chronic losses within this year.

Mr. Vice President.

These subsidiaries employ a large number of people.

This liquidation will leave tens of thousands of people jobless.

Mr. Ko.

A business isn't the soup kitchen.

We can't feed those who don't bring in profit.

Also, Ms. Boo.

What's taking you so long with the personnel reduction?

Well, there are procedures I must abide by to do that...

If I were going to stick to procedures

what do I need you for?

Can you come up with something more creative?

If we do not abide by the necessary procedures

it will cause many legal and management risks...

Exactly.

Isn't the whole point of paying you good money

to have you manage those risks?

Everyone.

Some tens of thousands of jobless people

are just a speck of margin of error in the financial statement.

Stop playing it safe

and earn your keep.

Got it?

Once you sign this paper, it'll finalize the divorce agreement.

HUSBAND: JEON JAE-YEOL

WIFE

Hyun-young...

Hyun-young.

It's not too late.

You were found innocent or not guilty or whatever.

That means you aren't guilty.

If you divorce me right now, you'll literally end up penniless.

Look at your father's condition

and how the company is in Sung-yeol's hands.

I said I'd help.

I said I'd be your lifeline. What's wrong with you?

Is it Joo In-a?

It's because of her, right?

It's not that.

You and I

just can't be happy with each other.

What the heck do you know about my happiness?

I know that I can't give it to you.

So I really want you to find it.

Because I plan to start looking, too.

Jerk.

Line A is stuck again. Grab the technicians now!

There's not much time left before shipping.

Darn it. Is it down again? I can't keep working like this.

This is getting worse and worse.

How was it before?

It wasn't this bad.

After the vice president changed, the parts supplier also changed.

It's been like this since then.

Where does the shipment

for those parts come into?

Are you okay?

I know it was somewhere here.

Are you looking for something?

No, I thought I dropped something

but I must've been wrong.

Excuse me.

You have reached Moo Kwang-il.

Yes, I understand. I'll be upstairs soon.

You have reached Cha Sung-tae.

Yes, all right. I'll be upstairs.

This is Baek Hyun-kyu of Audit Team Three.

Yes, all right.

What were the calls? What's going on?

PERSONNEL RECORD MOO KWANG-IL

PERSONNEL RECORD CHA SUNG-TAE

Look at all these people.

What are they all going to do?

Goodness.

Hello, Ms. Boo.

- Have a seat, Mr. Moo. - Sure.

So our company

is conducting a huge restructuring and reorganization.

From the Audit Team

they plan to remove Team Three entirely.

What about us three?

You three will probably get transferred to another team.

But Mr. Moo, Mr. Cha, and Hyun-kyu...

probably won't...

She'll ask them to retire voluntarily within a certain period.

If they don't leave in that time

she'll pressure them by cutting their severance pay.

- That's right. - This is insane.

What are they going to do?

You see...

As I'd expected, it was the problem with the parts.

Only the packaging is brand new

and what's inside is all beat-up.

There's no way these new machines would work smoothly with those.

That would cause a problem with the logistics process

and the subsidiary, HM Trans, will drop in its value.

He probably plans to dispose of it.

And the money he gets will be used to secure his shares.

The headquarters is slowly downsizing, too.

The restructuring began

and Audit Team Three will be dissolved.

What? Team Three?

Mr. Moo, Mr. Cha, and even Hyun-kyu

got asked to accept voluntary retirement.

I wanted to tell you

that I can't come over today.

I think I should be here with my teammates.

Yes, of course.

Or would you like to come?

They'd all be happy to see you.

Should I do that?

Jeon Sung-yeol has yet to secure all the shares he needs.

We don't know how it'll play out, so let's see...

Mr. Noh.

Don't make it sound that easy just because it's not your business.

What do you mean, you don't know?

We were already notified.

Okay?

Drink slowly. You're drinking way too fast.

Ms. Pyun.

You must think I'm a joke, too.

Are you going to be stingy even on a day like this?

- Are you? - That's not what I mean.

Man. Come on.

- Let me have it. I'll cook the meat. - It's okay.

- Just let me have it. - Ms. Yoon!

Cooking meat isn't an easy job.

Don't make it sound like it's easy!

I'm such an incompetent team leader

and I feel too ashamed to face every one of you.

If I only had a bit of power

I could have stopped

our entire team

from disappearing.

I'm so sorry. I apologize.

Goodness.

What am I going to do now? Gosh.

Oh, goodness.

Thank you for treating us to beef, Hae-young.

Eat up, and please stop crying.

MS. JOO IN-A

- Where are you? - Da-yae, will you manage without me?

The word "accomplice"

refers to you and Jeon Sung-yeol.

HAEMU GROUP DISPOSITION PLAN

I'm meeting Mr. Kang of TH, so book a room at a hostess bar.

And bring in the right number of partners.

Right. Yes, sir.

What now?

What's with that face?

Wait, has Jae-yeol never asked you to do something like this?

You know it's just business.

Handle it like a professional.

I see.

I get what you mean, Se-young. Thank you. Bye.

You said you were nearby, but you never showed up.

What was that serious call about?

It's Ms. Boo of HR.

I thought we should have someone on our side at the headquarters

so I compiled everything I have gathered and sent it to her.

Gosh, it's so cold.

Goodness. It's cold, so let's go inside and talk later.

Why are you so lightly dressed? Aren't you cold?

You look colder than I.

Your ears are so red.

I can imagine that.

Ms. Joo?

Ms. Joo!

I must be drunk out of my mind.

Hey, that's our Mr. Noh!

Where have you been?

I've been looking for you.

Is she your girlfriend?

Hello, I'm Mr. Moo, the incompetent team leader.

Wow, you look just like Ms. Joo In-a at our workplace.

Hey, look. She looks just like Ms. Joo!

You're here.

- Come here. - Hey.

Wait, so who asked whom out?

- I did. - I did.

What? You two asked each other out?

Look who's in love!

So Ms. Joo's boyfriend that you once mentioned

was Mr. Noh?

How did you know who my boyfriend was?

I could tell just by Mr. Noh's eyes.

His eyes?

Hey, Ms. Joo, wait a moment.

What was the thing you said during the interview?

You said that you were just using him.

Isn't it obvious?

You told a white lie for Mr. Noh's sake, isn't that so?

I knew you'd notice, Hae-young.

She was such a romantic!

You two look great together. I mean it.

You two must be the best couple there is.

- Are you crying? - What's with him?

- Why are you crying? - Yes, why?

- Thanks. - Gosh.

There's finally a couple from our Audit Team!

And they're the biggest couple of this century!

But of course, I can no longer call it

our Audit Team.

Yes, I shouldn't be so excited

about someone else's love life right now.

You're right.

The game isn't over yet.

I promised you, didn't I?

That I will be your iron fortress.

And I will keep my promise until the very end.

Stay strong. It's not over yet!

Your iron fortress stands here!

Thank you!

She's right.

So why did you talk so big before resolving everything?

I know.

Why am I so full of myself these days?

I mean, Mr. Moo was

looking at me like this, so I couldn't just stay still.

I'm glad you did that. You just have to solve this matter.

- That's right. - Yes.

I think I can find a way.

Not only is Se-young against him

but there are directors who are against Jeon Sung-yeol.

In order to convince them to cast their votes

we need to give them an alternative to Jeon Sung-yeol.

It has to be someone who has enough power and trust to go against him

and someone whom the directors will trust and cast their votes on.

There's only Mr. Jeon Jae-yeol.

Yes, you're right.

But then

we're showing up unannounced.

Do you really think he'll meet us?

I love you.

I love you.

It's called monstera.

Thanks to these holes in the leaves, the wind can travel easily.

These help them live a long time without ripping.

That means...

the wounds

are their way of survival.

We're talking about 150,000 people.

If Jeon Sung-yeol sells everything according to his plan

that's the number of people who will lose their livelihood.

We have to stop the worst from happening.

We aren't asking you to return to the company.

We're just asking you to help us persuade the directors

so that the board will approve of Jeon Sung-yeol's dismissal.

In-a, don't you think you're asking for too much?

You pretended like you were siding with me in front of the world

to protect your man.

Then you suddenly show up and ask me to save the company?

I have found my peace.

My mother has become much better, too.

Please don't get me involved in this matter.

Did you ask for me?

What the heck?

What did you do?

Don't you know what it means to get the right number of partners?

I did what you asked me to do.

I invited one employee per participant to assist them.

And they were all men!

You...

So you can think for yourself.

I don't need anyone who thinks and makes their own decision.

All you need to do is follow my decisions.

Get out.

Hey.

Hasten the preparation to sell HM Trans.

I don't care. Just set the date!

My dear son.

Thank you.

It's still hot.

We're talking about 150,000 people.

If Jeon Sung-yeol sells everything according to his plan

that's the number of people who will lose their livelihood.

Mr. Vice President!

This is not a proper way of selling a company.

Withdraw the unfair dismissal!

- Withdraw! - Withdraw!

Halt the hasty sell-off!

- Halt! - Halt!

Everyone.

What you're doing here is considered obstruction of business. Got it?

THIS IS NOT RESTRUCTURING, BUT FIRING

Remove them before my guests arrive.

FILING FOR LOVE

GUEST APPEARANCE BY OH EUI-SHIK

An emergency board meeting?

Is he going to dismiss the CEO first?

- Target found. I'm tailing him. - Over there.

Man, it was like a scene from a movie.

Wait, a marriage?

No, I don't do marriages.

It doubles the risk.

Not even with me? Why are you hesitating?

It feels like they're starting to swap personalities.

They say you grow alike with the one you love.

Did you just laugh?

Could there still be something going on between them?

I have something to say, Ki-ju. n
