THIS IS A WORK OF FICTION

CHILDREN WERE FILMED SAFELY
GEN AI WAS USED FOR SOME SCENES

I'm thinking of quitting my job.

Sorry?

I'm going to quit.

Why would you quit?

It's cold.

Let's talk inside.

Warm up your hands first.

So my hunch was right.

You suddenly taking a day off,

saying those weird things.

I always seem to get caught by you.

But still,

I didn't think
you'd actually consider quitting.

I wanted to clear my head first
then tell you before anyone else.

If working together is the issue,

I can just transfer
to the Development Team.

You should stay where you are
and do the work you want to do.

But what about you?

I…

don't have that anymore.

Why not?

I came this far determined to prove myself
through work, not politics.

But at this rate,

even if I get to the top,
I'll be forced to do things I hate.

I don't want to do that.

But wouldn't it be the same
even if you moved to another company?

I know.

That's why I'm not jumping to another job.
I want to hit pause.

I want to rediscover why
I chose this path,

where my destination is,

and what I really want to do.

I'm so torn.

As your girlfriend,

I want to support your decision.

But as a colleague,
I want to talk you out of it.

It feels like a waste

to throw away
everything you've worked for,

and everything that would've followed.

I don't regret walking away at all.

I just want to be with you in peace

and do work I actually want to do.

Thank you.

I'm the one who's grateful.

Buying all this beef
for an old man's birthday.

Happy birthday, sir.

You must've been shocked
when he suddenly announced he's quitting.

Yes.

To be honest,
my head is spinning right now.

When Si-woo makes a decision,

it's only after he's given it
everything he's got.

Yes, I know that.

And that's what upsets me.

Why does he always

try to struggle
through the hard times all by himself?

I see why Si-woo fell for you.

Have you two been talking trash about me?

Totally.

I said I was worried if you'd still
be attractive even after you quit.

That feels like a threat.

This is nice.

You having someone to keep you in check.

Yes, it really is.

What are you thinking about?

I'm just wondering
how much I'm allowed to interfere

in your life.

You're welcome to take full control.

In that case,

when are you submitting your resignation?

What kind of company
do you want to go to?

Do you want to start a business?
Got a business idea?

You're not going abroad, are you?

Should I report to you
with a slide deck?

Hey, I'm being serious right now.

I'm submitting my resignation soon,

and I'll figure out
the rest after that, one by one.

Which means you literally have zero plan.

Is this not the right way?

Ms. Ji-yoon, could you check
the GPS for me?

Sure.

Looks like you took
the wrong turn at that fork earlier.

We'll have to go a long way around.

I got confused because it's dark.

Well, I guess
you don't know everything after all.

It's obvious

I have to stay by your side
and coach you.

I'm in your hands.

I can't say I'm fully on board just yet,

but I want to help you figure it out.

Thank you.

Though I doubt our company
is going to let you walk away that easily.

EPISODE 12

NO MAP TO FOLLOW, STILL CLOCKING IN!

What did you just say?

I'm resigning.

Si-woo!

I wanted to tell you directly

before handing in the paperwork.

Are you doing this

because Ms. Cha's special promotion
fell through?

It's true I'm fed up
with the unfair evaluation system

and disappointed by how conservative
this place is about new ideas.

But through all of that,

I finally realized that I'm someone
who doesn't belong in this organization.

That's why I want us
to change this organization together!

You cannot change it, President Han.

Your position won't let you.

I can't do it either.

Think it over again.

Letting you go is a massive loss
not just for me, but to the whole company.

I'll hand in my resignation.

Absolutely not!

Just wait.

Everything discussed here today
is strictly confidential.

Yes, ma'am.

Yes, ma'am.

Mr. Kang says he wants to quit.

-But Mr. Kang is…
-Yes.

He's a key asset
specially managed by the company.

I'm sorry, ma'am.

We missed the signs he wanted to leave.

You look very surprised, Mr. Noh.

It must be a headache finding out the guy
you desperately wanted to drag down

is a key asset.

I'll privately meet and convince him
with a bigger bonus or better role.

That won't work.

The moment
Mr. Kang's resignation is submitted,

hold the approval process and just wait.

Mr. Noh, you should
make the move in the meantime.

Me?

You're the executive directly above him.

Well, yes.

If you become the executive
who lets a top performer slip away,

your next performance review will suffer.

Kang Si-woo.

Keep him here at all costs.

I will hold you accountable
for the outcome.

Answer me.

Yes, ma'am.

What are you planning to do?

First, we fix his work environment.

Don't bother waiting for Manager Ko's
official disciplinary decision.

Remove him immediately.

Yes, sir.

I bet you're thrilled to come to work
now that you won't see me for a while.

"For a while."

It won't be.

Why?

You think I'm never coming back?

Just you wait.

I'll make sure to return
and make you leave the company.

Sure. I can't wait.

You've been an arrogant brat
from day one, and even now.

My life started going wrong
ever since I met you!

I would've been different
if I hadn't had you as my boss.

What?

It seems you don't have
much luck with bosses either.

Go ahead and take this one.

I'll catch the next.

-Doors are closing.
-Hey! You little…

An accountant?

How does he look?

No, it's just…

Ji-yoon cares more
about a guy's looks than his job.

Right, okay.

Then I guess I'll ask her about it.

Okay.

What's gotten into you?

Isn't this what you wanted?

It's so sour.

Just leave Ji-yoon alone.

I don't enjoy
getting nagged by her either.

But people

won't stop pestering me
because she works at SAEUM.

What about your regular?

I told you to play matchmaker.
What happened?

Matchmaker? Come on.

It'll work out if it's meant to be.

How would they magically cross paths
in a company that big?

Why? Is something wrong with him?

What? Don't jump to conclusions like that.

Do you really think
I'd grab drinks with a bad guy?

That's exactly my point.

Who'd hang out with a boring guy like you?

-Hey, now.
-What's his title?

Does he live alone?
Are his parents both around?

Giving me the silent treatment again.

If you don't want to do it yourself,
give me his number.

Hey, that's my phone.

What's yours is still mine.

Where are you going?

We have to go to the divorce lawyer.

I'm not going.

Everyone, great job on the Home-AI launch.

The Sales and Marketing Teams
will take over the rest from now on.

So what project will we work on next?

As of today, this task force…

Drumroll, please!

…is disbanded.

-Pardon?
-Why, all of a sudden?

I'll do everything I can
to make sure you all move

to the teams you want.

Mr. Kang.

I'd like to head back
to Product Planning Team 1.

Sure.

Let me know
once you two make up your minds.

And here I was,
thinking of ideas for the next project.

Do that back in your teams.

What can I do there?

They'll tell me to stick to the old way
even if I pitch a new idea.

I can't work like I do now
under any other boss.

Look, what if we found
a new project to work on?

We'll pull all-nighters to find something
even the higher-ups can't refuse.

So please…

Can't you just stay on
as our boss, Mr. Kang?

You three are the heroes
who made Home-AI a success.

No matter who your boss is
or what team you're on,

keep working with your heads held high.

You've earned the right to do that.

Go have a nice lunch

with this today.

What about you, sir?

Something urgent came up.

I'll join next time.

What's going on here?

The task force was always just temporary.

It's natural to get dissolved
now that the project is over.

And what about Mr. Kang? Where's he going?

Oh, is he taking over Mr. Ko's position?

Is that why you're going there too?

No, he's not going anywhere for a while.

What's that supposed to mean?

He says nothing is decided yet.

You two grab lunch without me.

What? Ji-yoon.

Mom,

this is so rude to the other person.

I keep telling you I don't want to. Why…

That's the guy you set me up
for a blind date?

He seemed like a great guy.

He works at SAEUM too,
so you can meet even when you're busy.

Mom, let me call you back.

So this was your urgent thing?

Did your mother call you here too?

Wow, so you came out here
to meet my mom, did you?

Yet you didn't mention a word to me.

I didn't know why she wanted to see me.

Even so,
you should've given me a heads-up.

I was completely clueless.

Wait, is this a lunch blind date?

Wow, going on a blind date
behind my back, are we?

No. I only came to politely turn him down.

My mom must've
really taken a liking to you.

Well, that's a relief.

But what do we do now?

I guess we should tell her the truth
before she catches us, right?

Yes.

Hello.

Can I help you?

Is Jae-in around by any chance?

Oh, he just stepped out.

Wait. You're Ms. Yoon, right?

Do you know who I am?

Of course. Jae-in never stops
bragging about his girlfriend.

He'll be back soon.

Hey, I forgot my…

Why are you here?

Because I can't let you go.

I know exactly how selfish I'm being.

I don't want to lose you,
and I still want to go to Senegal.

But I really don't want
to give up on either.

I grew up moving from country to country
because of my dad's job.

People envied me,
but I never had any friends.

Every time I got
close to someone, we moved.

I moved back to Korea

because I insisted on coming
when I turned 20

even if I had to come alone.

Now, I finally have people
I can call real friends

and a lot of things I want to do.

So right now…

I can't follow you, No-ah.

I can't handle long-distance either.

I'm scared too.

But…

I'm scared of losing you even more.

I'm sorry.

I don't think I can do it.

No.

I'm the one who's sorry.

Weren't you the one
dying to see her every second?

I still am.

That's why I'm doing this.

I don't know the full story,

but hey, the stupidest thing you can do

is force an end to something
that isn't over yet.

But I can see how it'll end.

Look at this kid, so cocky.

How can you know the end
if you haven't even been there?

Do you like it?

Yeah, I do, but… Gosh.

I don't know how often
I'll wear something this pricey.

Just wear it all the time.

Wear it when you meet your friends,

or when you go on a date with Dad.

A date with your dad? Good grief.

I already see him at home all day.

It seems like
he's trying really hard, though.

Do you still want
to graduate from marriage?

Being nice for a bit
doesn't erase years of resentment.

I need to watch and see a bit more.

So you're saying

there's a glimmer of hope for him?

Wait, why are you so quiet?

I expected you to throw a massive fit,
but you're buying me clothes and food.

Did you actually like him?

Yeah.

I like him a lot.

See? I told you!

He totally won me over too!

So did you agree to start seeing him?

The truth is,

we were already seeing each other.

Mr. Kang is actually my boss.

What?

I liked him as a colleague at first,

then I liked him as a man,

and now I'm in love with him.

You're already a couple?

Yeah.

My goodness!

And here I was,

playing matchmaker for you like a fool.

Wait, did your dad
not know about this either?

He actually caught us together
a little while ago,

but he probably couldn't
bring himself to tell you.

Why not?

Why couldn't he say
two of his favorite people are dating?

He's…

been through a divorce.

What?

It was a hurdle
you had to cross eventually.

Trust Ji-yoon and just wait.

Are you rooting for me?

Why would I root for you?

I'm rooting for my daughter.

I'll say it again,

I'm on my wife's side, no matter what,

even if that upsets you.

That's fine.
I have someone on my side too.

She's my daughter!

What would you do
if my wife doesn't approve of you?

I'll have to wait

until Mother warms up to me.

Hang on.

How come she's "Mother"
and I'm just "sir"?

Then please help me out,

Father.

As if I stand a chance against my wife.

How could you just storm out
without even hearing the whole story?

I said no.
What else is there to talk about?

Why not?

You wanted to graduate from marriage too.

You'd understand him more than anyone.

Yeah, I'm dying to graduate from marriage!

Because I endured all those years.

Most couples go through a phase
of wanting to break up.

But everyone just sticks it out
and works through it.

But…

He got a divorce in less than a year?

How can you trust someone
who gives up that easily?

But working through it is something
you're supposed to do together.

Mr. Kang never even got that chance.

Then he shouldn't have gotten married
in the first place!

Mom.

Call me shallow all you want,
but I can't help it.

I want my daughter
to go down an easy path,

not tripping and falling over stones.

I can't approve of this.

We knew this would happen.

Still, I didn't think
she'd be so strongly against it.

I understand her, though.

I'm hardly ideal from her perspective.

Yes, I know it's
because she cares about me.

It's fine.

I'm going to keep seeing you
no matter what my mom says.

So don't let it get to you either.

We're in this
to get married one day anyway.

Then we need to get her blessing
even if it takes time.

But how?

You do things your way.
I'll do things my way.

One step at a time.

-Are you Ms. Nam Hye-gyeong?
-Yes, that's me.

Here's your package.

FRAGILE
PREMIUM RED GINSENG

Red ginseng?

Who sent this?

-It's from an anonymous sender.
-Okay.

Thank you.

What brings you here so early?

What do you mean? I'm just working out.

We should do it together.
You're a key asset, after all.

Do you play golf at all?

I don't care for golf.

That won't do.

You have to pick it up
if you want to make executive.

I have a private coach, you know.
We could learn toge--

Oh, gosh.

We won't go golfing together.
Please tell me what you want.

Are you serious about quitting?

Yes.

Look, I can see where you're coming from,

but at least think of President Han.
She thinks the world of you.

It's pretty funny hearing you
express concern for President Han.

Don't worry.

She'll be perfectly fine even without me.

Hey, Kang Si-woo!

Oh, come on.

Since we don't have a team lead,

I'll temporarily be taking over
as acting lead.

Everyone can just keep doing
what they were doing.

-Yes, sir.
-Yes, sir.

Oh, please.

Ms. Yoon, please hand over your work
to Ms. Cha before you leave.

Yes, sir.

A new hire arrives today.

Can someone be his mentor?

Anyone?

Oh, look. Here he comes.

Hello!

I'm the rookie, Song Min-gyu.

I'll do it.

Thank you.

Ms. Shin went back to her old team.

Have you not decided yet?

Well, I…

I wanted to decide
after seeing where you go first.

Why? To follow me?

Yes.

I'm going to resign.

Right.

Pardon?

So don't wait on me
and make your decision.

But why?

I want to look for work
that suits me better.

I hope you take
this chance to do the same.

But working under you
is what suits me the best.

What about the Development Team?

You seemed more excited doing
that work than planning work.

That's not wrong,

but going to Development now is a bit…

Everyone's been raving
about your washer-dryer.

No one would question it
if you transferred there.

Okay.

I'll do it, then.

I'll speak to their team lead.

In return,

please keep my resignation
under wraps for now.

It's a real shame.

Though I'm sure you're moving on
to better things.

Right.

I'll go somewhere better.

I know, right?

Mr. Kang!

This is our new hire.

This is Manager Kang Si-woo.

Hello. My name is Song Min-gyu.

Okay.

I think you came to the wrong place.

You're too handsome to work
at an electronics company.

A lot of people do tell me
I look like a movie star.

Wow, the confident type.

What can I get you, Min-gyu?

Do you like instant coffee?

If your mentor offers you
instant coffee, you should say no.

Just a moment.

"Say no to instant coffee."

CHECKLIST
NO TO INSTANT COFFEE

-Understood, sir.
-Also say no when she tempts you

with chicken and beer.

"Say no to chicken and beer."

And for the record,

Ms. Cha already has a boyfriend.

"Already has a boyfriend…"

Right.

I'll take note.

You're lucky

to land a great superior from day one.

Yes.

What is it this time?

It says health supplements.

Oh, geez.

PREMIUM MULTIVITAMIN FOR WOMEN
RED GINSENG

TO: NAM HYE-GYEONG

If you don't respect me,

I won't respect you either.

Okay.

Even in a relationship,

I'm going to put myself first.

Okay.

If your love fades away…

I won't forgive it and just leave.

Okay.

That's how I'm going to love you.

I want you to do the same.

Okay.

It's the first time

I've been recognized at work
for my own effort.

If I choose to be with you,

I want it to be
as a better version of myself.

Before being Lee Jae-in's girlfriend,

I want to be Yoon No-ah first.

I'm scared too.

But I'm scared of losing you even more.

No-ah.

Kim Goo-won? What are you doing here?

I can't take it anymore.
Let's get back together.

What the heck are you doing?

I heard you're still with that young kid.

Snap out of it, No-ah.
Why are you destroying your life over me?

Did you fight with your girlfriend?

I'll end things with Da-eun soon.

You haven't changed at all.

You piece of trash.

Look at yourself.
Do you realize how much you've changed?

You're not the No-ah I used to know.

Yeah, I've changed!

I've become more selfish and brave
than you could ever imagine.

So please, get the hell out of my life.

Listen, No-ah. You need me.

Let go.

I said let go.

Let go!

She told you to let go.

Why don't you get lost

and stop bugging No-ah?

I'm not bugging her. I love her.

Love, my ass.

You don't know much about No-ah.
And you say you love her?

I know better than you

what an amazing woman No-ah is.

Listen carefully, Kim Goo-won.

Jae-in is the one I love.

So don't ever show your face again.

I'm calling the cops if you do.

Don't come crawling back to me crying
when this goes south.

Jae-in.

I can't promise

I'll wait for you until you get back.

Are you okay with that?

Yeah.

If either of us gets fed up,

we'll call it quits then and there.

Is that okay?

Yeah.

But I know for a fact I won't get fed up.

I told you before.

Love isn't about enduring
and forcing effort.

I won't hold back or endure.

I'm going to video call you every day
and write letters every day

and fly back at least twice a year.

I'll come see you
even if we have to meet halfway

in some random country.

I'll have to see you more
before you leave.

Yeah.

What are you doing here?

Hello, Mother.

Don't call me that, it's uncomfortable.

I asked what you're doing.

Whenever I need to clear my head,

I come help out around the store.

Don't people usually send

flowers or fruit baskets
when they try to win someone over?

Why did you only send supplements?
You're treating me like an old lady.

I don't like seeing
the people I care about get sick.

Do you give Ji-yoon gifts like that too?

Yes.

You men truly have no clue
what women actually want.

How long did you intend to send me those?

Until you called and told me to stop.

I didn't want to show up
and make you uncomfortable,

so I waited.

The ship might sail while you wait.

Anyway, then try fixing this.
It won't turn on.

Sure.

That back looks awfully familiar.

What is it you like about Ji-yoon?

I admire her confidence that stems
from her deep sense of responsibility.

She always finds solutions
no one else can think of,

and once she sets a goal,

she gives it her all
until she's satisfied.

And unlike me,

she knows how to open up
and share her feelings.

I'm learning a lot from her.

Well, aren't you a smooth talker?

I could talk all night
about the reasons I fell for her.

-Okay, all fixed.
-Already?

If it was this simple,
why did my husband…

Oh my, what's this?

I figured you like flowers.

Mr. Kang, I'm…

Mom.

So you've been meeting here
behind my back?

No, you've got it all wrong.

I ran into Ji-yoon on my way here.

Look, I got the bungeoppang you like.

Is it made of peas?

Because I see
two peas in a pod right here.

Right.

Though I suppose a major corporation
beats a tiny corner store.

Working at SAEUM is the one thing
I like about you.

Well, about that…

I'm planning to resign from SAEUM.

He probably got poached to a better place.

Right?

I'm going to take a break

and look for a new path.

You threw away the one thing I liked?

Forget it.

A divorcé, maybe.
But a funemployed man? No.

Mom.

-Mom, come on.
-Hey.

Hang on.

Mom!

Hey. Why'd you bring that up
when things were going well?

She would've been angrier
if she found out later.

Good grief, you really are frustrating.

I thought a lot about how to convince you,

but it boiled down to one thing.

I…

like him a lot.

I really do.

How can you trust a man
who walked out on not just his marriage

but his career as well?

But I do trust him.

He's the only person

who makes me live
most authentically as myself.

So I know he'll find a job
that lets him live as his true self too.

Even his personality is just your dad's.

There's nothing I like about him.

I guess I take after you a lot, Mom.

Take after me? No way.

You're far smarter
and more upstanding than me.

You're my greatest pride.

I'm sorry, Mom.

You could say
we crossed a major hurdle, no?

How did you reach that conclusion?

She said, "A divorcé, maybe."
Remember?

That means she's softening up on you.

She also said, "But a funemployed? No."

Well, that's only a temporary problem.

It might take a while.

Then I'll just have to provide for you.

Tomorrow will be my last day at work.

-Tomorrow?
-Yes.

I'll hand in the paperwork
and use my remaining paid leave.

So the final day is really here.

You'll still root for me
as a colleague, right?

It's a pity,

but yes.

LETTER OF RESIGNATION
NAME: KANG SI-WOO

It feels like a waste

to throw away
everything you've worked for,

and everything that would've followed.

Think it over again.

I can't work like I do now
under any other boss.

Can't you just

stay on as our boss, Mr. Kang?

CONFIRM SUBMISSION
SEND DOCUMENT?

CONFIRM

DOCUMENT SENT

I take it Mr. Noh botched his assignment.

You made him do it knowing he would.

If I couldn't convince you to stay,

I at least had to make them liable.

Which is why you played the card
that I was a key asset.

Exactly.

It's not too late to change your mind.

No.

I won't be able to give you the support
you expect from me.

Instead…

What's this?

You'll find this useful.

Here's what you asked for the other day.

Your hunch was spot on.

Subcontractors have been wining and dining
Mr. Noh and Mr. Ko on golf trips

in exchange for securing contracts
to sell their products.

Those two were boasting
as if they were about to

take over Home-AI soon.

This shows the expenses
those vendors paid.

Thanks.

It looked like your Vice President
was involved too.

You sure about this?

Yeah.

It's just the vendors' words now,

so you'll need
a proper investigation to prove it.

How you play this card
is entirely up to you.

So you're leaving me a bomb
as a parting gift.

There's no point
in trying to make you stay, right?

You're right, ma'am.

I made it this far thanks to you.

You got here on your own merit.

I look forward

to seeing Kang Si-woo's next chapter.

Thank you.

This is a non-compete agreement.

It states you can't work

in the same industry
for a year after leaving here.

Okay.

What the heck? I haven't even
approved his resignation yet!

The President approved it.

What?

We were told to skip the exit interview
and wrap this up quickly.

KANG SI-WOO

Thank you for everything.

Thank you.

I'll sign off now.

SAEUM
KANG SI-WOO, MANAGER

Mr. Kang!

Ms. Cha is in the product showroom and…

Mr. Kang!

Why are you here so early?

Gosh, he's super fast!

You were supposed to bring him here
right on time, you dummy.

I mean,

I was literally just trying to say
Ms. Cha was waiting

in the product showroom,

but he bolted
before I could even finish my sentence!

What, did you think
she was in some kind of trouble?

I've never seen
the great Kang Si-woo run that hard.

What is everyone doing here?

They're tearing down this place soon,

so Mr. Kim here suggested
we run one final test.

Test?

You can't quit
until we do a final inspection

to see if the product
we launched runs perfectly!

It's ready.

That's right.

This was the exact moment
you were supposed to bring him in

so that we could do this!

-Congrats on your resignation!
-Congrats on your resignation!

Congratulations.

We couldn't let you leave
without a farewell party.

How could you, Mr. Kang?

I was the last one to find out again.

I'm sorry.

Sir, did you just apologize with a smile?

Then "No sorry" is over,

and "No smile" is over too.

And look, "No people" is over too.

That means you're no longer Three-No-Man.

Right.

Now that I'm leaving,

I finally see the reason
I could have stayed.

Only today did I learn
what makes work worthwhile for me.

You were my reason,
and you made it worthwhile.

Thank you all

for everything.

All right, then.

-Ta-da!
-Wow!

You can't have a farewell party
without a toast.

Here, let me pour you a drink.

You're Kang Si-woo after all.
You'll do great anywhere.

Thank you.

Here.

The office is going to feel so empty
once Ms. Yoon leaves too.

I'll be back before you know it.

Sure.

Just a little for me.

Did everyone get a drink?

Now, Sr. Associate Jeon.
Give us a killer toast.

Yes, well…

Mr. Kang, wherever you go, I hope…

your notorious reputation continues.

Now, everybody.

-Cheers!
-Cheers!

-Cheers!
-Cheers!

NO SCHEDULE TODAY

I'm sorry, ma'am.

So you're saying
you sent out that half-baked report

and actually CC'd
the managing director too?

I thought I had to.

I'm pretty sure I sent you

a detailed guide on email etiquette.

I'm sorry.

I haven't memorized it yet.

Drink this.

Chamomile is supposed to be great
when you're tense and nervous.

Thank you.

One time,

I accidentally dropped a zero

from every number
in a profit-and-loss simulation.

That means 10,000 won became 1,000 won.

Wow, you must've gotten an earful.

What was it he said?

"One mistake is enough."

Repeated mistakes aren't mistakes anymore.

They show the person's incompetence.

I'm disappointed in you, Ms. Cha.

Just hearing that gives me chills.

But still,

I genuinely learned so much
from that person.

He taught me what it truly means
to be a teammate.

It must be true

if you say so.

He taught me…

how to put my own well-being first.

So I told you to cut back
on the instant food,

sweet coffee, and sugary drinks!

He told me to screw sacrifice plays…

and be the hero instead.

He showed me

how to fight back
against unfair treatment.

Also,

that word has more weight
the less you use it.

Don't say "sorry" when you're with me.

Especially at work.

He taught me…

everything I need to know.

What's wrong, all of a sudden?

Welcome back.

Come have some tea.

Did you have a good day today?

Yes.

Like you said, I did absolutely nothing

and spent the day lazing around.

Well done.

Ta-da.

What are these for?

To celebrate you graduating from SAEUM.

Thank you for all your hard work.

You were the best boss
I've ever had, Mr. Kang.

Thank you.

Then can I also graduate
from being called "Mr. Kang"?

Sorry?

I'm not your boss anymore.

Right.

Then…

Si-woo.

Yeah, Ji-yoon.

Put your mug down.

Why?

You'll end up spilling otherwise.

Do you remember

eating like this right here
on our very first date?

I do.

I brought a fancy bottle of wine,
and you got us sundae.

Who could've guessed
you'd bring wine in those days?

A drink back then always meant soju.

You dragged out fixing that radio
for days just to make a move on me,

to set up a drinking date
under the pretext of apologizing.

So I thought
it was going to be a romantic evening.

Still,

wine and sundae
went surprisingly well together, right?

And I thought Ji-yoon and that guy
would make a good pairing too.

Let the kids figure out their own lives.

And…

let's focus on our lives instead.

We can just graduate from marriage.

If you want that so badly,

then go ahead.

But marry me again.

When the time comes and you pass away,

I don't want you to be alone.

I'll spend the rest of my days making up

for what I didn't do for you in the past.

So let me stay by your side…

on your final day.

Are you seriously

using my deathbed as a pick-up line?

A pick-up line?

Hye-gyeong.

Forget everything else.

I just want to

outlive you by exactly one day.

Oh, stop it, Cha Yeong-mook.

I'm sorry.

Forgive me, won't you?

How come you're here alone?
You said you'd come with your sister.

That was the plan,
but she went to see her boyfriend.

Well, if she has a boyfriend,
he takes priority.

Exactly.

Boyfriend over family, I guess.

Are you done with interviews?

I can lend you this place
whenever you need.

I haven't settled on my next piece yet.

What kind of story do you want to tell?

This time…

instead of people just dating at work,

I want to write something where people

give 100 percent to both work and love.

Work emergencies happen left and right,

and their love lives are a mess,

so they cry and throw fits and all that,

but they still clock in tomorrow.

So, a horror story?

Office workers won't read that.

That's exactly my dilemma.

Should I stick to something that sells
instead of what I want to write?

"404 FOUND."

You know how you sometimes see

"404 NOT FOUND"
when you browse on the Internet?

That means the server itself
is still running,

but there's no corresponding webpage.

Which means "I exist,

but I can't find the answer."

The thing is,

a 404 isn't a fatal system error.

If you take a little break and reboot it,

you might find it again.

So you're saying
I should come here, grab a drink,

and unwind when I get writer's block?

Bingo.

Oh, man. I totally fell for it.

-Pour me another one.
-With pleasure.

You always come here to clear your head
when you're stuck anyway.

I'm going to spend my time

traveling with my wife from now on,

so come fix things
and look after the store.

Take your time and figure out
what you want to do while you're at it.

Stop worrying about me
and just take care of yourself, Da-ra.

Don't live on burgers, okay?

And don't get hurt playing futsal.

All right, I'll call when I land.

MON AMOUR JAE-IN

This caller is unavailable.
You'll be redirected to voicemail.

Why isn't he picking up?

MON AMOUR JAE-IN

Hey, Jae-in.

No-ah.

What are you doing here?

I couldn't let you go alone.

I'll escort you there.

Jae-in.

I never expected our first trip together
would be to Senegal.

I love it. It's perfect.

Thank you.

Don't mention it.

Working late again tonight?

Nope, this is me slacking off.

You make it sound like
you're working on a plastic model kit.

Did you have dinner?

I'm unemployed, so…

-What about lunch?
-I had ramyeon.

Your quality of life
has seriously tanked since you quit.

I recall you saying that health was
the one thing you'd never compromise on.

I'll be fine
since I have a naggy person by my side.

It's delicious.

How's your work going?

I've got the basic blueprint.

What about you?

The rookie is driving me nuts
with a new crisis every day.

I don't want to go to work tomorrow.

Then why don't you play hooky
and hang out here with me?

Should I?

Do you mind if I join you?

Unwind this first.

Next…

we detach this part.

-Then…
-Look at that!

Even your detaching technique
is on another level.

Try this one too.

Take a seat.

What did you work on today?

Well, I refined this idea.

Please look for an office space
around Seongwol-dong.

It doesn't have to be that big.

Have a look. I'll carry you like this.

You know what?

6 MONTHS LATER

Automotive audio is fundamentally
a battle against noise.

You have to suppress
engine hum, road noise,

and even the sound of the wind.

MARKET STATUS QUO
AND IDENTIFYING ISSUES

It's not just about noise,

it's about controlling it
after reading the driver's emotions.

What do you think, Toto?

If I speak up, you're going to dump
all the work on me again.

Well, you happen to be
the most hardworking teammate we have.

Stop gaslighting me.

Keep this up,
and I'm taking a leave.

Manager Cha!

SAEUM
CHA JI-YOON, MANAGER

Ms. Cha!

Has everyone eaten?

-Yes, ma'am.
-Yes, ma'am.

Okay, then. Let's officially
kick off the first meeting

of the newly revived
Future Household Appliances Task Force.

Babe!

What brings you all the way out here?

I'm here to brave
the rush-hour subway with you.

Then let's walk a bit first.

It'll be super packed if we get on now.

Okay, then.

We can't do this, we can't do that.

If they keep shooting down everything,
what can we even make?

At this rate,
we're going to lose everything

to our competi--

A fall like that
can break a bone, you know.

We should get married

before we get any older, Ji-yoon.

Wow.

It's an actual ring this time.

So say yes, will you?

Sorry.

Again?

This time…

I want to propose to you.

But I'm a bit slammed
with work these days.

Can I put it on you after this project?

At this rate, we'll be getting
matching hearing aids instead.

I don't know
when the wedding will be, but…

It'll be with me

on one spring day.

I love being in love.

It makes everything seem possible.

Let's grab some fried chicken
and beer nearby.

Again? Aren't you sick of it?

How could I ever
get sick of chicken and beer?

Even when there's no map to follow,

even when we get lost for a while,

the one thing that helps us find the way…

In the end,

it's love.

I'm staying over at your place tonight.

My new apartment is freezing.

Don't you have to clock in tomorrow?

Yeah.

Going to work
doesn't mean I can't be in love.

I love you.

I love you too.

-I love being in love.
-I love being in love.

GREAT JOB TODAY

I WILL SIGN OFF NOW

SPECIAL THANKS TO BAE YU-RAM
AND PARK SEO-HAM
