Isn't she an associate producer for 'Entertainment Weekly'? Shin Hae Joo?

There's a rumor that they're dating. I guess it's true.

- Oh, do you also live here? - Nope, not me. But, my boyfriend does.

I'm okay.

I can... move on fairly quickly if I feel it's not working out so...

'We should just work when we are at work.'

Who's going to understand you if you do it that way?

Are you a dolphin?

If you don't think she's it, then you need to make that clear to her.

Let's stop seeing each other. I'm sorry.

Yes, yes...

Use this.

- I just borrowed it from the lobby desk. - Pardon?

They're going to take it out of my paycheck if I don't return the umbrella.

Look at this! Look how you parked your car so closely next to mine!

It came to 830,000 won.

That rookie on your team. I want him dead.

That Seung Chan or whatnot is a complete psycho.

The topic of affliction is 'I don't want to go to work'.

Why this person doesn't want to go to work...

We'll invite him out and find out why.

The person with this affliction, please come out!

[Baek Seung Chan]

Wow, he's good looking!

Go help him out. He doesn't seem to be good with slides.

- Wait! I'll do it! - Why? A man should.

Let me do it.

Wow, you go nuts whenever there's a man around.

- You're okay. - Moving on...

We've had a number of stories sent to us about similar afflictions in the past.

- Yes - That's right.

But, what's unique is

the person who sent this story is a rookie PD

in the variety show department at KBS.

Yes, that's right.

- But, why don't you like going to work? - You hate work already?

There's a girl I liked since college...

She's also a PD in the variety show department.

PD in the variety show department.

- For KBS? - Yes, so...

She was the sole reason for my decision to work at KBS.

- That's very cool. - Who's this romantic these days?

Then, what's the problem?

But, when I started working...

I found out that she's already dating someone else.

You seem pretty young. Just find someone else.

Why go for a female producer? A variety show producer at that.

Why not check out Cultwo Show or drama producers?

Female producers in the variety department are strong willed.

But, the real problem is that the male producer she's dating

is in a questionable relationship with another female PD.

What do you mean by questionable relationship?

I witnessed it by chance. After they got off work...

they went into the same apartment.

- Oh... the two of them. - You shouldn't have sent your story to us.

- This should be discussed on Witch Hunt. - Yes, it should. They were in one house?

Anyways, if I tell the person I like what I saw, I think she'll get hurt.

And if I just leave them be, I feel it's an injustice.

Since I don't know what I should do...

I don't want to go to work...

Let's bring out the parties involved in this situation.

And continue this conversation.

Our show always invites the main person with the affliction

along with the other parties to hear everyone's side of the story.

- Where are you? Can you raise your hand? - Where are you two?

Yes, there they are.

Welcome.

So I hear you two have something you want to say to Baek Seung Chan.

Yes. You. I told you not to come near me, didn't I?

What did I say? We should kill him.

If you take a look, there are afflictions...

Seung Chan!

When you go to work tomorrow, give this to BamBam oppa for me.

It's oppa's birthday. (Oppa means 'older brother' or 'honey')

Your older brother is me.

No, I'm not talking about that.

He is scheduled to be at KBS tomorrow, so here.

- Yoo Bin. - Yes?

I don't want to go to work...

- Joon Mo! Did you bring in the milk? - Nope.

Oh? It's past the delivery time.

Did the milk thief take them?

There are two bottles of milk.

Didn't seem like it was just one night...

- Um... - Yes?

Because I was too worked up about it

I think I said many things I shouldn't have.

The part about Hae Joo and this is all personal so...

- Can you edit out... - What class are you?

Yes, I'm... in the 42nd class.

I'm in the 34th class. I mean I'm your senior.

- Is broadcasting a thing you play with? - No.

Why don't you film, edit and do everything?

I'm sorry.

- You must be on your way to work. - Yes.

Do you know what you'll be working on today?

Um, according to what I heard from my seniors yesterday... uh...

We need to set up a new plot for the upcoming season.

We'll decide on the show concept

and I heard that the most important thing is casting new members.

According to the casting director, since our show failed miserably last season

and because we only have one week to film

it'll be difficult to cast someone.

Then what do you do?

In situations like this...

they said that we'll end up wasting time if we try to catch a peacock.

That we need to catch a chicken.

Instead of a peacock, a chicken?

- Yes. - I see.

Okay then... I'll get going to catch a chicken.

[Episode 3 - Unintentional Chicken Instead of a Peacock]

I heard there are milk thieves everywhere. It must be true.

Do I need to make a hole for milk delivery?

Thanks. Anyways...

Don't you think something seems different?

What is?

Usually girls aren't good at openings things like this.

And not good with hammers or replacing light bulbs.

And call a guy to help out, saying 'Please can you do this?'

Was Hae Joo like that?

Why bring her up in this conversation?

So many ways to seduce a guy.

- Why, she didn't ask you to spoon feed her? - Hey, you're so...

Well, she's the dating champion of KBS.

As soon as she started working at KBS, she dated that announcer, Yoon Joo Won.

And then right after, the drama department's...

Hey!

Why are you attacking her character?

I mean is there something wrong with a single girl dating?

You're the odd one since you can't date.

Can't?

I choose to not date because I'm busy.

Joon Mo...

Hae Sung broke up with me...

What do I do? I don't know what to do.

Where is it? So loud.

- Joon Mo... - I thought you were a ghost.

I think he's cheating on me... that bastard.

That bastard.

I had a feeling he'd cheat.

Joon Mo.

Am I the type that people get sick of easily?

You are not.

If you are, how did I see you for 25 years?

Not true... People get sick of me.

That's why it never lasts more than three months. They get sick of me.

I'm the type people get sick of. That's why it never lasts long.

And?

Because I can open jars without problem, and can hammer nails well

and can replace light bulbs like I'm MacGyver...

you're saying that's why I can't date?

Did I say that?

I'm just... since you're making mean comments about...

Right!

You're so deluded by her that even though you say she's not it

you just keep getting strung along since you can't even break up.

When you finally wake up, you could be standing at the altar, you know?

Hey, I can take care of my own business. You should take care of yours.

Look at you. You couldn't even find a new place to live by the end of your lease

so you're living with me instead!

Instead of worrying about others

worry about what wallpaper you'll put up in your new place.

Or whether you should have a balcony or not.

Don't worry about other people's personal lives.

What? Other people?

Why can't you process these? They were all for work.

Anything used around your home...

or during times when you were off the clock are not allowed.

What do you mean?

You live in Mok-dong, don't you?

- How did you know that? - Those receipts are all from Mok-dong.

Can't I do business in Mok-dong?

A producer's work can occur in their neighborhood.

I could've had meetings with my writers.

This has been pointed out by the Department Chief.

Can't you just do one for me? The 58,000 won... just this one?

Since you can't do all three.

This one is the most.

The rest, 14,500 won and 9,200 won... I'll forget about these.

Okay, then just this one.

14,500 won.

Leave it there.

- This place serves blood sausage. - Excuse me?

Blood sausage and spicy rice cakes are their specialty.

That's why people go here.

Why did you have kimbap?

Producer Ra... Producer Ra!

- What do you want now? - Come on, are you mad?

Because I said your show's getting axed?

No, forget it. Why would I?

It's a relief, right? You just need new members.

- So, who are the new members? - Hey, we haven't decided yet!

It's Shin Dong Yub, right? And Yoo Hee Yeol?

Who says that?

I'm right! I'm writing it.

- Go ahead. - I'm wrong?

If you're sure, write it.

You will write that you have a 'trusted source' and all that.

- You got turned down. - What are you saying?

So, you put in offers but Shin Dong Yub and Yoo Hee Yeol turned you down.

Can I write it like that?

Are you going to throw salt before we even get started?

- Why are you doing this to me? - I'm just doing my job.

- Just tell me who it is. - Just wait. I'll let you know.

- You're shooting in a week. How long? - By today...

Really? You're going to contact me today? Just me, exclusively?

If you don't, I'm writing that Shin Dong Yub turned you down, okay?

Tell me. Why did everyone turn us down?

The thing is...

Well, if you get me... you'll get the ratings of course.

It's important to me who I work with.

Jong Shin? I don't know. He likes to pretend he has a rivalry with me.

What about Dong Yub?

Actually, I was thinking I should do an outdoor variety program right about now.

But, make sure Hyun Moo is involved. He should return to KBS.

I'm doing seven programs right now.

I don't think I can fit 2 Days, 1 Night into my schedule.

But... what is the appearance fee like?

You can't pay the appearance fee? Then, I can't do it. Let's forget about it.

Dong Yub's not doing it?

Then, I can't either.

Hee Yeol's not doing it. That's too bad.

Then, since I'm in, let's do it with my company's Jo Jung Chi.

That kid really likes me.

Is that what he said? That's just his delusion.

Just tell him you didn't want me.

How could you leave him out?

He has some sway too now. Then, I don't want to do it either.

If one person work out, they don't like the other.

If another person works out, then the other person drops out.

This whole negotiation process is about convincing people who say 'no' to do it.

If they all said yes, why would we need this process?

This is like dating.

You can't just push and be aggressive. Someone has to play hard-to-get.

Then, you should do it. You're good at dating.

Okay, I will. I'll do it. Looks like I have to. It's an emergency.

Why are you looking at me like that?

It's nothing.

Okay, why don't you talk first?

What?

If you dreamed of being a variety show PD

you must have something you wanted to do when you became a producer.

Like an item that you've kept as a hidden idea all this time.

Gosh, lower your expectations. This is a rookie!

Then, you throw out some ideas.

You didn't like my idea from before? Hana Mana game?

- Stop saying Hana Mana... - Actually.

I've been reviewing the history of variety shows of our country.

What?

Joon Mo, this guy is a historian... a historian.

He knows everything about the history of variety shows.

The thing about success is that it follows a sequential market.

What market?

So, it's like a cycle.

The time that it takes for a format that was once successful to work again.

There was a time when shows about animals were all over TV.

So, what is it you want to do?

- You want an animal kingdom? - No.

Statistically, how about a show with a matchmaking concept?

Hasn't that been a bit overdone?

If you look at this... in 1995, Love Studio was very popular.

Also, 7 years later in 2002, War of the Roses, a meeting in a mountain villa was a hit.

And again, 7 years later in 2009, We Got Married was a success too.

That gives me goosebumps. You're like Nostradamus.

Nostradamus... give me a break.

Well anyways...

If we start something with a matchmaking concept this year

maybe it will be a big hit... next year in 2016.

I thought...

Did you graduate from Seoul University?

- Yes. - Okay, got it.

- Excuse me? - I said, I got it!

I have a meeting with the Department Chief so do something while I'm gone.

Yes, okay.

Hey, rookie. Don't be too down on yourself, okay?

We have to recycle our tapes.

They're in the room at the end of the hall, so erase all the Haenam episodes.

Okay.

Oh, Miss!

You can't throw out egg shells in the food waste.

What? Why not?

Food wastes are used to make livestock feed.

So, you can't put inedible things in there.

I've been in the teaching profession a long time.

I can't just overlook these basic things.

- Yes, I understand. - You're still throwing it away?

I won't do it the next time.

Oh, fine.

Though a woman should know about garbage if she's running her own household.

What?

Don't men have to know these things too?

What?

You said you've taught for a long time, so I'm asking you because I'm curious.

- Miss, are you being sarcastic... - Honey!

Oh, are you back?

Oh my...

Oh my, seriously... oh dear.

Goodness sake. You should be more dignified.

Why are you fighting in the neighborhood?

I'm an adult. Can't I even say that much?

I have to build a base foundation here in Yeouido to get public nomination.

What will I do if you go around getting in fights with our neighbors?

Even back when I was the district leader you were not a supportive wife.

What district leader...

You were a temporary fill-in for exactly two months.

Hey now!

Because you always look down on me, I have no authority at home.

What? I look down on you? How can you say that to me?

All this time, I've been taking care of you.

I couldn't focus on my own performance and couldn't be promoted to principal.

I even had to quit my job being teacher.

You had to quit because the courses were always changing and you couldn't keep up.

What do you mean I couldn't keep up?

My mind is sharper than the younger teachers.

I'm a person that can pray in Hebrew, after all!

Gosh, I'm busy enough as it is. Why are they causing traffic?

They're all crowded there together!

Yeouido needs to get rid of all the cherry blossoms!

Joon Mo, let's go look at the cherry blossoms.

It's raining tomorrow. They'll be all gone once it rains.

I can't. I have to edit this. Let's go see them next year.

Let's see them next year... next year. They bloom every year.

I heard they're not pretty this year. It's all over the news.

Come on!

Didn't we see them last year? Didn't we?

I'm sure we saw them.

Hey, hey... let's just go drink instead. Okay?

We'll go karaoke and I'll sing you 'Cherry Blossoms'.

- No! - What's the point of seeing them?

What are you doing here?

Ah well...

They said I had to recycle tapes here.

So?

They told me to erase the Haenam episode.

I can finish it soon.

You just need to erase the Haenam episode?

Do you want some help?

Oh no, it's okay. It's my job.

- I think you need some help. - No, it's okay.

[Tape Eraser - uses magnetic field to erase tape content]

This is a magnetic field.

This is how you erase the contents on it.

You don't erase the writing on the outside.

If there's something you don't know, just ask.

- Okay. - Even if you know, ask.

- Okay. - You did a good job with white out.

Yes, it looks very clean.

Producer...

I'm sorry, but can you keep this incident a secret?

Especially from Producer Ra Joon Mo...

I don't know. It's too funny to keep to myself.

I'm asking you as a favor.

Then, let's do like this.

- You know the 800,000 won I owe you? - Actually, it's 830,000 won.

Yes, let me repay that 830,000 won in installments.

Installments?

It's not because I don't have money. I do have money. I do.

I just have a lot of investments, that's why.

So, I don't have a lot of cash flow is all.

For now, here's 30,000 won.

Take it. Don't feel bad about it.

- Thank you. - Thank you?

If you're thankful, then buy me some chips.

Okay. What should I buy you?

That's what I'm going to see... I'm going to see what you buy.

That shows your feel and creativity as a producer.

You think I'm making you do chores? No, this is all a part of your training.

Honey, what lesson do you want her to take now?

Who takes tutoring to improve self-directed learning?

What kind of total nonsense is that?

Fine. Then, start next month. I get my bonus next month.

Why did you buy that already? Is the bonus yours?

I have to go now.

What is it?

Don't ever have kids. Paying for their education is never-ending.

After my kid started school, I haven't been able to buy a suit.

That's why you always send me to the KCC because you don't have a suit, right?

You think I'm joking. It's the truth.

English, Chinese, Math, and even sports...

Just turn her into an idol trainee. Agencies pay for all of that these days.

- Should I really? - What do mean? Hurry up, let's go.

Do you have an item ready to present?

I told the group to brainstorm and they gave me matchmaking or some nonsense!

Man, what a horrible idea.

Are you going to have it in a mountain villa?

So, are negotiations going well?

First, we need to set an item and then go from there so...

So, have you confirmed the item?

Well, we have to proceed with caution. There are many ideas.

- We're trying to pick one out. - What were the ideas?

For now...

- Doing one game after another in a... - What are you talking about?

That isn't what we decided on. That's just one that came up.

The members also brought up shooting in the city like in an office...

Have you... already forgotten? The Invisible Man?

That was so embarrassing for me. I just can't forget it. Is that it?

What are you guys going to do?

Well, something about matchmaking did come up, as well.

Oh, that sounds good. Matchmaking.

See, what did I say? You should've started with that one.

You remember that show with the meeting in the mountain villa? That was nice.

That was one of mine. It was a big hit.

Don't worry about getting the idols. As the producer, I'll get them for you.

Who should we contact first? Cube, YG, SM?

I hear idols these days can do everything.

English, Chinese. You guys do that too?

Yes, of course. We have a training system in place too.

What do you think of her? She'll do well in the Asian market.

Even in the North American market... with like a Mulan-type image.

If I bring in a girl like this, my boss would kill me.

This is my daughter.

I'm not asking you to debut her.

If it's possible, I'm just asking for her to be made a trainee and learn...

English, Chinese, sports, self-study and so on.

I will do anything for you... besides this.

Give me Hani for 2 Days, 1 Night.

We've got Hani. Yedang teaches Chinese too.

How about YG?

Of course we do. That's not all. We do Japanese and even writing, everything.

I was going to introduce this girl to SM, but I'll show her to you.

- How is she as a trainee? - She can't be a trainee.

She's my daughter... my daughter.

You could just give me Sandara Park.

Did you cry?

Hey, I don't really like it when female PD's cry in the workplace.

Does crying solve anything?

Producer Tak...

Joon Mo...

What about Joon Mo? What did he do?

Oh my! Yesterday, Joon Mo...

he said sorry and...

asked to keep a professional relationship only?

And he wanted to break up?

Oh wow! He really is an awful guy. Gosh.

Hey, it's okay. It's a good thing.

Honestly, I thought you were too good for him.

You're so young and pretty.

Ra Joon Mo is old and immature. He doesn't suit you.

You just need to meet a better guy, Hae Joo.

But, you're saying I...

have yet to find a good man.

And I'm still alone so you're afraid of ending up working all the time and alone.

No, Hae Joo.

I couldn't do it, but you can. You can work and love at the same time.

You can do it.

Are you done crying? Do you want to cry some more?

I feel comforted now.

No, it's no problem.

Is this Hollywood or something?

During the day, he kisses one girl.

At night, he goes home with another.

But, the two women are friendly with one another.

It's hard for me to adjust to the open and liberal atmosphere in this place.

Oh my gosh. There are no sausages?

You said to buy chips.

Just because I said to buy chips, you only buy chips?

When I tell others 'buy chips,' they understand what I mean.

They buy sausages, beef jerky, gum, and all sorts of other things.

I don't care about everything else, but not buying sausages is too much.

Don't you agree?

Hey, hey, hey. This is too much.

That's too bad. I was going to give back 20,000 won more.

You're too 'ni ma yi'.

It's no good if a producer is too 'ni ma yi'. He should be 'ssan ma yi'.

Keep that in mind. Okay?

These terms 'ni ma yi' and 'ssan ma yi' are remnants of the Japanese language.

I don't think the PD's should use them.

But, what exactly does it mean?

First, 'ni ma yi'...

It's something that's sound, serious, and lacking humor.

And 'ssan ma yi' is like the opposite.

Oh, oh! In a movie, after a man and a woman do a love scene...

if the lights turn off beautifully... that is 'ni ma yi'.

But when the lights turn off, and they're wearing glow-in-the-dark underwear

that's an example of 'ssan ma yi'. It's a bit crude.

It's kind of funny and cheap humor.

I'm a bit 'ssan ma yi' too.

I have folder chock full of 'ssan ma yi'.

Tell me, how did you get all those idols to sign on so fast?

I don't know.

They were all just eager to do it.

Tae Ho, thank you so much.

Kim Tae Ho is at the chicken galbi restaurant.

He's going around shopping his daughter to agencies.

Oh, Reporter Kang. It's me, Ra Joon Mo.

You know I was debating whether I should tell you or not this morning.

Yeah, we have Hani signed on. That's right Hani from EXID!

Up, down... up, up, down. Yeah!

Yes, this is Music Bank... who?

Hold on.

Excuse me... Writer Kim Da Jung.

What is it?

Hello?

Yes, it's me.

Yes, okay.

- What is it? - Oh, it's a delivery.

Da Jung, come over here. Sit down.

Just a moment. I have to get my package.

Hey, look here.

You're the youngest rookie in this entire room.

You're the one everyone will look for when they need chores done.

But, how can you go around with earphones all the time?

Are you trying not to hear people?

You have such a loud voice... I can hear you anyways.

If you're done talking...

I'm not done talking yet.

And by the way, this is not your home.

Why are you receiving personal deliveries?

I didn't order it. Someone sent it.

- Who? - Cindy's fans.

- Why? - To be good to Cindy.

Why would they send it to you?

I'm the main PD. Why would they send it to you?

- Don't you know? - What?

You and Cindy got in a fight in the dressing room last time.

All the fans know about it.

All of Cindy's fans have it out for you.

They have it out for me?

Well, the general public has it out for Cindy.

Ever since the break-up of Pinky4 or whatever they're called

Cindy's number one on the search results. People are saying awful things.

Okay.

Hey, look at this. Just look.

Look at this.

The insults are just out in full bloom.

That airhead doesn't know how to repay those who helped her, pretending to be cute.

Pretending to be cute?

Yes.

Oh okay, so that's what they're saying.

Keep reading. 'Pretending to be cute'... What's after that?

Don't skip any.

Do you think you'll make money if you go solo?

You're not Cindy anymore.

You're Money-dy.

Keep reading.

Let's stop. It's hard for me.

- Is it? - Of course.

- Doesn't it make you feel bad? - Of course it does.

But, aren't we going to report it? To Cyber Investigations or something?

Cindy, this makes me really mad and upset too.

But, this isn't enough for us to do that.

Why?

There's much worse than this. There's lots. If you see the anti-fan...

- How do you know that? - Huh?

Are you a member of those anti-fan clubs?

Oh, what do I do about this?

What is this? It won't move. Hey...

Some girls just put on a shocked expression and everyone comes to help.

Ow, that hurts.

[Joon Bal]

The customer's phone is turned off. You will be connected to voicemail.

Good. Just a little more.

That's good! That's good!

Thanks, Baek Seung Chan.

Is your wrist all right?

I'm sure it'll be fine.

Anyways since you helped me out, I'll take off an additional 30,000 won.

Senior.

I think it's only right that you take off 50,000 won.

This isn't your average car. It's almost like a huge van.

Fine. Come to my desk tomorrow morning, and I'll have the money for you.

Senior.

What?

Are you going home?

- Of course I'm going home. - Where do you live?

I used to live in Heuksuk-dong, but I'll be moving to Dongtan soon. Why?

I see. Also, by any chance...

Do you... have a boyfriend?

Why? You want to introduce me to someone?

- No, it's not that. - Then why are you asking me that?

I was just wondering if there was a guy you liked.

There really isn't anyone you like?

People come to Yeouido to see the cherry blossoms when it's spring time.

But I want to leave Yeouido because there's so much traffic.

That probably wouldn't be the case if I had a man though, right?

Because we can watch the cherry blossoms together while we walk.

But Baek Seung Chan, why are you asking me something like that?

You told me to ask whether I know something or not.

Yeah, but I never told you to ask these ridiculous kinds of questions.

Get out of the way!

What's this? Ultimately, you want to pair up the idols.

Seriously, what have you guys been listening to the whole time?

I'm saying let's organize the members in a new way instead of pairing them up.

So, you want to divide the idols in two groups of three

and do a 2 Days, 1 Night couple matching trip.

Is that what you're trying to say?

Not exactly, but you got the right concept.

- That's called pairing up. - The rookie mentioned that earlier.

- This is different from that. - It sounds the same to me.

You said you didn't like the idea earlier.

I said I didn't like it? Me?

What did I say before?

Did you graduate from Seoul University?

You asked if I graduated from Seoul University.

Right! I asked you if you graduated from Seoul University.

Why would you take that as if I didn't like it?

Seoul University graduates might get upset if they heard!

Ever since his first day...

Baek Seung Chan kept making mistakes and getting the wrong idea.

I was so shocked because he finally came up with something useful!

I was just making sure, that's all!

Did you graduate from Seoul University?

Did I scold him after that? I haven't.

So you graduated from Seoul University.

I knew I was right. That's all it was.

Did Hae Joo say that?

Why are you bringing her up right now?

You are totally seduced by that girl.

You know it won't work out, but you don't have the guts to break up with her.

You just continue to let her drag you around.

I can take care of myself just fine. You just worry about yourself.

Look at you. You couldn't even find a new place to live by the end of your lease

so you're living with me instead!

What's the occasion? I can't believe you're home at this hour.

- Ye Jin, I stayed out last night. - Oh you did?

Whose call are you waiting for?

What are you talking about? Wait for what?

What about Joon Mo?

How would I know? His phone is turned off.

I couldn't care less about where he is.

So you have called him. You even know his phone is turned off.

I just called to see what time he's going to come home

and whether or not he's going to eat at home or not.

You only called him once, right?

The phone is turned off. Please leave a message after the beep.

I just wanted to check if his phone was still turned off.

Hey, sis... why don't you sit down for a sec?

Don't get offended and just listen.

Ye Jin... you're the type of woman men get really sick of.

What? Why you little...

I said listen to me.

Surprisingly, it's not about conditions when a man looks at a woman.

For example, like beauty or wealth. That's not everything.

Then what is it?

- An opportunity. - An opportunity?

That's right! An opportunity!

It has to be open. Just slightly.

But you don't have the patience to wait. There's no chance.

- Why you little... - Wait.

Let's say the man you're flirting with sent you a text.

'Ye Jin, what are you doing?' Like this.

Then what are you going to do?

'Message is here.'

I'm eating.

'Message is here.'

I'm watching TV.

I'm taking a du...

I'm in the bathroom.

That's how you are. You reply back instantly.

You don't give the man a chance to be even curious about what you're doing.

But, let's say you don't reply back.

Then in that moment he's going to think about you.

'Why isn't she responding?' 'Is she busy?'

'Is she sleeping?' 'Is she washing up?' 'Is she sick?'

Forget it. You're telling me to act coy and play hard to get.

There's no need to think of it that way exactly.

In a person-to-person relationship

I'm telling you to give him the time for his thoughts to intervene.

What is this?

Two new anti-fan club sites?

Why don't they just register at the ones already there?

Why do they keep making new ones?

[Question: Write down why you hate Cindy.]

She is...

too perfect and it's annoying.

[Cindy fans are not allowed to enter. Are you Cindy herself?]

Why you little...

[Write down why you hate Cindy.]

She's fake and rude as hell.

I have tons of past pictures of Cindy.

[Member registration is complete.]

Seriously, I'm out of my mind.

'Message is here.'

I'm Baek Seung Chan, the assistant PD for 2 Days, 1 Night.

I let you borrow the umbrella last time... do you remember?

I knew it. You got my number so you could hit on me.

I noticed you still haven't returned the umbrella.

I told you several times because I knew this would happen.

Please return it as soon as possible.

That's it?

Is that all?

Ah also...

you can return it under my name at the KBS lobby desk.

The late fee will get docked from my paycheck for every day it's late.

- Please return it as soon as you can. - Woah.

The umbrella... was all you really wanted?

You guys, we're in huge trouble!

Why?

- Hani is number one on the internet! - What is it?

[Hani! 2 Days, 1 Night at the police station!]

- No way! She got herself in trouble! - What?

I knew this was too good to be true.

Just what on earth happened?

The truth is, Hani got first place at M Countdown.

She was in a good mood so she drank a little bit.

Yeah, that's understandable. But?

There was a table of drunk guys next to her and they were being extremely loud.

Those punks antagonized her, didn't they?

No, Hani did.

Hani absolutely despises loud noise when she drinks.

And?

It was ugly.

Hani got hurt?

No... the guys did.

Hani used to do taekwondo when she was little.

It was three to one and our Hani didn't even get a scratch!

That's not something to brag about.

All these people started to gather around.

So, we quickly ran outside and got in the car...

- but we got caught. - By the guys?

No... by the police.

There was a sobriety checkpoint right next to us.

They caught us before we could move the car.

How is the atmosphere right now?

- Fortunately, it's good. - Oh really?

Does it seem like everything will turn out okay?

No, I meant the atmosphere of the police station was good.

Up and down Up and down.

The police chief even got her autograph for his son.

And he seemed to be in a good mood.

It seems she'll be released with a warning for now. Isn't that a relief?

Yeah, what a huge relief!

What are you going to do about this?

I already told all the reporters that Hani is going to be on our show!

The other members said they'll only confirm...

after they find out who is going to take Hani's place.

They're buying time to bow out.

At this rate... what if our show really gets canned?

Don't you guys have anyone mind?

All of you should have at least one celebrity in mind

who is willing to help out when it's really urgent.

Actually, Joon Mo...

this celebrity has been calling me non-stop.

Who is it?

Hong Kyung Min.

He said he'll come out in her stead.

That person is a man. We need a woman here!

Plus, why would a married man volunteer? Has he lost his mind?

His wife gave him permission to do it. She wants him to do something.

Well...

What do you think about Cindy?

Cindy?

The Cindy that we know of? That Cindy?

Yes.

- Do you think it's a bad idea? - Why? That would be great!

She's the best! What do you guys think? Cindy would be great!

- She's awesome. - I love Cindy!

- She is totally my type. - Everyone loves Cindy.

- I love her. - She is so cool.

Right. Why didn't we think of Cindy in the beginning?

Why don't you call Cindy and ask her

if she can replace Hani for 2 Days, 1 Night.

Is it okay for me to ask her?

Of course you should ask her. You're the one who recommended her.

And if she agrees, I promise I'll do anything you want.

[Umbrella return]

Come to my desk. I'll give you the money.

What is PD Ra Joon Mo doing?

He went in for a meeting.

Did he pull an all-nighter here?

Yes, one of our cast members backed out of the program.

Is that so? I see.

You must be tired too.

I'm okay.

You're so full of energy. Right, that's how rookies are supposed to be.

I like that.

Okay, 50,000 won. Here you go.

Thank you.

You're thankful again? Then go out and buy some hotteok.

I didn't get a chance to eat breakfast so I'm kind of hungry.

When you buy the hotteok...

I want five green tea hotteoks and five regular hotteoks, okay?

- Yes. - Go.

I have good news and bad news. What do you want to hear first?

Is there even any good news to tell?

The President said he never really liked Hani in the first place.

Well, that's a relief. What's the bad news?

I want you to cast someone like Suzy or Cindy.

Why would top celebrities like that come on our show?

And as a replacement at that.

Joon Mo, I couldn't say those words to him.

No way! Come on, let's be reasonable here!

Don't knock it until you've tried it.

When was it for me back then?

I was trying to persuade Kang Ho Dong for that New Year's special.

It was negative 12 degree Celsius and I went all the way to SBS.

Ho Dong was doing the Ya Shim Man Man show back then.

I purposely did not go inside. I waited for him outside.

My nose gets red when I'm cold.

I wanted to persuade him by looking pitiful in his eyes.

During my CP years, the day Jae Suk was recording for Happy Together...

It was the episode of when they were being recorded in the Shingil-dong bath house.

That place is so small that even the whole staff couldn't go inside.

I stood outside in front of the bath house

from dawn until the recording was over.

Casting people is not supposed to be an easy task.

You used to be close to Park Jin Young a long time ago.

You know... when Jin Young's vinyl pants got a hole in it...

you closed it up with Scotch tape and he was so grateful about that.

That was such a long time ago.

Still, go and at least give it a shot.

Grab on to her legs and beg if you have to. What choice do we have?

Seriously, my fate.

Fine, I'll go there for now.

But you weren't able to cast Kang Ho Dong back then, right?

I couldn't. What about you, Chief? Did you cast Yoo Jae Suk?

I couldn't, either. But Jae Suk refused because of a schedule conflict.

Just because you go doesn't mean it's always going to work out, right?

My son graduated from Seoul University and now he's working at KBS.

A producer for a sight-seeing station.

He originally wanted to become a prosecutor

but he became a producer instead.

He made the right decision. Honestly, what is it to be a producer?

While you're in charge of the whole program...

you lead the staff and cast members and be respected at the same time.

I'd like ten hotteoks, please.

Five green tea hotteoks and five regular hotteoks.

- Seung Chan. - Hello, Father.

- What are you doing here? - I came to buy some hotteoks.

Goodness, I see.

You could've ordered your subordinates to do it, but you decided to buy it yourself.

You're amazing!

Well, I'm the subordinate.

[Umbrella return]

Father, I have to go.

Sure. Hey...

Is he your son?

The one who graduated from Seoul University

and almost became a prosecutor but is a producer instead?

Ah yes.

By the way...

as the mayor of Yongdeungpo, I've been looking over the people's welfare.

How is it living in Yongdeungpo lately?

I live in Seodaemun!

Ah... I see.

Hello? I'm Baek Seung Chan.

You're the producer who lent me the umbrella back then, right?

Did you call to tell me to return that?

You still haven't returned it?

You were supposed to return it by 9 a.m. today.

I guess today's late fee is going to be docked from my paycheck.

- I'll pay you the late fee later. - You're going to pay me the late fee?

Yes, I'll give you the late fee and the umbrella!

Well... can you give that to me now?

Excuse me?

No, I can't. I'm in the middle of a rehearsal right now.

You're coming here?

This guy is ridiculous.

Who is it? I'll take care of him for you.

- The address is... - Yes, I'll be right there!

We were a bit surprised by the urgency of your call.

Right? I hope it's okay. Is the President super busy right now?

- The President is working out. - Oh really?

I'll give you a tour of our agency while you're waiting.

I would love that, but I don't have a lot of time...

There's an hour long course, and a short twenty-minute course.

I'll give you the short course. Please follow me.

You really... came all the way to Tanyang to get the umbrella?

Yes, I came to get the umbrella

and I wanted to discuss something with you as well.

Go ahead, I'll listen.

But Cindy... who is this person?

He's the 2 Days, 1 Night producer you told me about.

The one who bought me the food.

No, he's not the one.

- That was PD Ra Joon Mo... - Ah, he's my senior.

What is that?

These are hotteok.

I'll take it since you meant well.

I can't give this to you.

I bought this on someone's errand... so, it belongs to someone else.

What the heck? There seems to be a lot in there.

I bought the exact amount. Five green tea pancakes and five regular pancakes.

I promise to buy some for you next time.

Forget it, I was just saying it.

- Should I buy some for you? - I said forget it!

Step outside for a moment.

The President said he just finished his workout.

Really? That's great.

- I'll connect you to him. - Connect?

He has a concert tomorrow in Japan, so he is currently in Japan right now.

Whenever he's busy, we always communicate through face-time.

Please enjoy the recording before we continue the meeting.

What recording? Just connect me to him.

- 'You're short' - 'You're not artistic.'

'I can't speak Korean very well.'

- 'However...' - 'After we met this person...'

- 'We realized...' - 'That everything is possible.'

[Park Jin Young]

We would like for you to be a member of the new season of 2 Days, 1 Night.

Why?

Why should I be a member for your show?

Excuse me?

I understand that you guys need me.

However, why do I need that program?

If we don't need each other, then that only means you want to use me.

I did some research.

All those top stars that we know of...

If anything, they secured many fans

after they decided to go on a variety show

and they went on to be top celebrities.

Please continue.

In 1995 there was a fear factor segment called

'Don't Turn Around' on the Super Sunday show.

Actress Jeon Do Yeon was only known for being in movies.

But in this segment we were able to see her get shocked, scream, and cry.

That image of her was very pretty and lovely.

And Lee Hyo Ri from 'Family Outing'

She only portrayed a sexy image before.

But in that show we got to see her bare face, work the soil, and cook.

Through that she gave us an image of the girl next door.

She was cool and charming at the same time.

So I think the public was able to relate to her more.

Hey, what are you doing?

Who is inside?

Who are you?

I asked you a question! Who are you?

He's a producer. He came to cast me on a show.

What is that?

It's hotteok, but I can't give it to you.

If you're a producer... what program are you from?

- Hey, PD Ra! - Hey, Jin Young!

- It's been a long time! - Yes, it really has been a long time!

- Did you see the whole thing? - Yes, seriously, you're the best!

- It's amazing, isn't it? - Yes, it really is amazing.

Did you see my kids? Bernard and Ji Min from K-Pop Star.

No, not yet.

- They... can do it. - Excuse me?

I don't know about anyone else, but I'll release them to KBS for you.

Thank you so much, Jin Young.

Also, did you see GOT7?

I will! But I have a favor to ask you in regards to casting.

Sure! Who is it? Go ahead and tell me!

I'm gathering a whole new cast for 2 Days, 1 Night. About Suzy...

Jin Young! Jin Young?

This happens occasionally when the signal is weak.

Should we try calling him again?

This is...

I didn't hear you! What did you say?

This is a whole new season and I'm going to go all out.

Of course you should go all out! I love that!

So I was wondering, is Suzy really busy lately?

Jin Young! Jin Young?

Jin... can't we talk about this over the phone?

He has his phone turned off during concert season.

Ah, this is really urgent.

- Hello? - PD Ra?

It's been a long time. I'm CEO Byun from Byun Entertainment.

- Is there a reason for us to talk? - No kidding.

I never thought we would have to, but it looks like there is.

Your rookie PD came looking for me.

What did you say?

Where are you?

Okay.

Something urgent came up.

Please ask the President

if he can somehow get Suzy to come on board for our show.

Sure.

- Is he gone? - Yes.

He's going to come back again for sure. Be careful, okay?

Idiot! Why did he go there? Seriously, he drives me crazy!

You want her to go on the 2 Days, 1 Night show?

Our Cindy?

Yes, that's correct.

Mr. Rookie PD...

listen carefully because you'll have to do some math from here on out.

You're asking our Cindy to clear her schedule for

two weekends a month for 2 Days, 1 Night.

But if we used that time to hold a concert overseas...

That's at least 10,000 people per concert.

And a profit of 170 million won for us.

Setting up the event and PR is a total of 300 million won out of pocket.

For one season... that's a total loss of 36 billion won.

That's quite tremendous, isn't it?

There's no solution, right?

How can you bring problem like that without a solution?

Granted, you're still wet behind the ears.

Yes, I didn't know.

It hasn't been long since I've been a producer.

My senior said something similar.

A PD should be somewhat ruthless and cold but she says I'm too soft-hearted.

Do you know about 'ni ma yi' and 'ssan ma yi'?

Yes, I do.

Shall we get up now?

Our Cindy needs to prepare to go on stage.

No, I still have time.

And?

I know I'm still wet behind the ears.

It's good for a PD to be ruthless and strong.

But I don't think it's good for them to be too cheap.

Yes, we need to calculate and consider money.

But they can lose their objective if they think about that too much.

Wait a minute.

Are you saying I'm being too cheap right now?

No, that's not what I'm talking about exactly.

When you're trying to find a solution for a problem...

Of course, you have to think about money as well.

But if all you can think about is money, then you're considered a businessman

and materialistic.

That's the same thing!

What the heck are you?

How dare you! Who do you think you are?

What? I count pennies?

- Baek Seung Chan! - Senior.

Come out.

- I said come out! - PD Ra.

Did you send him?

What the heck?

Are you trying to take your revenge on me now?

Well, that's only the case if I see you as my competition.

I'm a busy man. I don't have the time to go against just anyone.

Let's go!

Who said you could go around meeting strange people?

You are so dead if you do this again!

- Cindy... - Manager.

Is that the person who bought me the kimbap back then?

Yeah.

Kimbap?

CEO Byun, I'm going to check out the stage.

What do you want to eat for dinner?

- Whatever you want. - I asked...

Don't you have an opinion? What do you want to eat?

- Jjajangmyun. - Besides jjajangmyun.

I pulled an all-nighter so I'm not feeling so good. No noodles.

- Kimchi stew... - Are you blind?

Can't you see I'm wearing a white t-shirt?

- Hamburger. - I said I'm not feeling good!

I'll just eat whatever you want, sir.

- Can you hold your liquor? - No, I can't...

Oh, here you are. Why haven't you called at all day?

I heard you're trying to cast Suzy. What happened?

I don't know.

Jin Young came on some screen and...

What's the matter with you?

... was doing this for 3 minutes at a time. What could I possibly say to him?

What are you talking about?

Anyway, it didn't work out.

Will 2 Days, 1 Night be okay?

You think they can continue at this rate?

So you want to send PD Choi from Vitamin to 2 Days, 1 Night

- and you take over Vitamin? - Hey!

Jun Moo, I need to live.

Go to the Chief directly and find a way for you to live!

What more can I do?

For the past six months, I've gone hiking with him, played golf

and I even went camping with his kids.

Look at these muscles?

Wow... you call these muscles?

The Chief is really being harsh on you.

I mean, he should do something for you

after all the groveling and sucking up you did.

Or at least, give you a pledge of some sort.

Have a drink.

You're seeing all sorts of things, aren't you?

Drink all of it.

Who said you could drink half-way?

I said my wife is totally cool with it!

- Back me up! - I tried, but no one agrees with me!

Next.

[Understanding Casting]

[It's the start of a relationship.]

[Some guy lent me his umbrella and I thought he was trying to hit on me.]

[He just wanted the umbrella back... what does this mean?]

[Maybe he's just shy?] [He's not interested in you.]

I'm sorry about yesterday. I'm home.

Come home as soon as you see this.

Chance? What chance?

You're here? Why are you ringing the doorbell?

Oh my gosh!

I bought the hotteok.

Five green tea and five regular.

Hey, you...

Subtitles by DramaFever

I didn't cheat on her. [Ye Jin's ex-boyfriend.]

Tak Ye Jin has a friend named Ra Joon Mo.

Tak Ye Jin used to have a crush on that punk.

She says they're just friends, but you can tell right away.

I ask her to go out with me on the weekends

but she says she has to see Ra Joon Mo.

I ask her to see cherry blossoms with me

but she told me she can't because she's going to see it with Ra Joon Mo.

And Ra Joon Mo always came to pick her up whenever she got drunk.

I thought I was going out with a married woman.

It's obvious that Tak Ye Jin has feelings for Ra Joon Mo.

I don't think she knows that, though.

Seriously, what the heck are you guys doing?

Do what you did yesterday.

- Pinch my cheeks and say 'Ye Jin...' - Ye Jin...

- My Ye Jin... - That's what you did.

Me?

Should I go on my knees and beg for Suzy?

You should've done that from the start!

You like Hae Joo, don't you?

- I heard Hae Joo took time off. - Excuse me?

You looked as if the world ended.

I'm a pro. You think I won't be able to handle that?

- You spray it on her face. - Me?

Spray this on her face and then give the fish sauce drink to her.

If anything, people will like me more if someone like him is around me.
