1
00:00:50,049 --> 00:00:53,219
THE ORDINARY JACKPOT

2
00:00:53,302 --> 00:00:55,763
1 YEAR AGO

3
00:01:02,853 --> 00:01:03,854
You can sit.

4
00:01:13,698 --> 00:01:14,782
Did you see the personnel changes?

5
00:01:16,117 --> 00:01:17,368
Yes, I did.

6
00:01:17,994 --> 00:01:19,120
How do you feel about it?

7
00:01:20,496 --> 00:01:21,497
I'm fine with it.

8
00:01:22,039 --> 00:01:23,457
I know that's not true.

9
00:01:25,167 --> 00:01:27,003
No, I really am.

10
00:01:29,046 --> 00:01:31,090
How are you and Eun-tae?
Are you close?

11
00:01:31,465 --> 00:01:33,301
The assistant manager?

12
00:01:33,384 --> 00:01:34,927
Oh, he's team leader now.

13
00:01:36,012 --> 00:01:37,972
Yes, well, we get along fine.

14
00:01:38,806 --> 00:01:40,975
Can you work under him?

15
00:01:42,602 --> 00:01:45,146
Are you sending me to Sales Team 5?

16
00:01:45,229 --> 00:01:46,314
Why?

17
00:01:46,397 --> 00:01:49,108
You don't want to work under
a younger team leader?

18
00:01:51,611 --> 00:01:53,154
It's not just about me.

19
00:01:54,196 --> 00:01:56,449
I think Mr. Gong
might feel uncomfortable.

20
00:01:57,408 --> 00:01:58,993
I'm asking what you think.

21
00:01:59,785 --> 00:02:00,870
You don't want to transfer?

22
00:02:03,873 --> 00:02:05,416
If I have a choice

23
00:02:06,042 --> 00:02:08,711
I'd like to stay where I am.

24
00:02:12,131 --> 00:02:13,132
Hey.

25
00:02:13,591 --> 00:02:14,592
Yes?

26
00:02:15,217 --> 00:02:18,846
I'm telling you to join Team 5
as nicely as I can.

27
00:02:19,388 --> 00:02:21,599
Why do you make me give you an order?

28
00:02:25,686 --> 00:02:27,647
I apologize. I'll transfer.

29
00:02:28,981 --> 00:02:30,358
- You can go.
- Okay.

30
00:02:34,528 --> 00:02:35,613
Ms. Park.

31
00:02:36,697 --> 00:02:39,867
Don't you also think
he and I aren't a good fit?

32
00:02:42,495 --> 00:02:43,496
Sorry, ma'am.

33
00:02:46,916 --> 00:02:48,626
I wouldn't send you there
if you two weren't a good fit.

34
00:02:50,920 --> 00:02:53,381
You and Eun-tae might not know it

35
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:55,883
but you two make a good team.

36
00:03:00,179 --> 00:03:02,723
- Get out.
- Yes, ma'am.

37
00:03:10,398 --> 00:03:13,484
EPISODE 3: WHAT I BELIEVE IN

38
00:03:44,265 --> 00:03:45,474
Aren't you sick of it?

39
00:03:46,684 --> 00:03:47,685
Of what?

40
00:03:47,768 --> 00:03:50,563
Having the same coffee every day
at the same time.

41
00:03:51,439 --> 00:03:55,443
Sometimes, you can have a latte.
Sometimes, you can skip.

42
00:03:55,735 --> 00:03:57,319
But you come here without fail.

43
00:03:58,362 --> 00:03:59,363
It's different every day.

44
00:04:01,031 --> 00:04:03,200
I may not be an expert

45
00:04:03,868 --> 00:04:06,120
but the coffee smells different
every day.

46
00:04:07,663 --> 00:04:09,749
That's why I look forward
to each cup.

47
00:04:11,041 --> 00:04:13,252
- I'll see you tomorrow.
- Bye.

48
00:04:21,093 --> 00:04:22,470
- Good morning.
- Good morning.

49
00:04:22,887 --> 00:04:24,013
Morning.

50
00:04:35,691 --> 00:04:36,984
Hello, Mr. Gong.

51
00:04:37,067 --> 00:04:38,277
You're here early, Gi-tae.

52
00:04:38,527 --> 00:04:39,528
Yes.

53
00:04:50,456 --> 00:04:51,999
I'd like to confirm the meeting time.

54
00:04:53,584 --> 00:04:54,710
- Yes.
- Good morning.

55
00:04:58,464 --> 00:04:59,465
Hello.

56
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:04,470
Great. Thank you.

57
00:05:16,190 --> 00:05:17,608
- Ji-hye.
- Yes?

58
00:05:17,691 --> 00:05:21,779
Can you check the conference room
for our Laknes meeting?

59
00:05:21,862 --> 00:05:23,697
I'd like some extra time
before and after.

60
00:05:23,781 --> 00:05:25,658
The meeting is scheduled
for 2 to 4 p.m.

61
00:05:25,741 --> 00:05:28,369
so I extended the reservation
from 1 to 5 p.m.

62
00:05:28,452 --> 00:05:29,495
Is that okay with you?

63
00:05:30,162 --> 00:05:32,206
- You did that already?
- Yes.

64
00:05:32,289 --> 00:05:35,125
Mr. Yang told me
you'd need some extra time.

65
00:05:42,258 --> 00:05:43,968
- Gi-tae?
- Yes, sir?

66
00:05:44,051 --> 00:05:45,344
Stop what you're doing

67
00:05:45,427 --> 00:05:48,180
and print Alex Cooper's
first-half revenue.

68
00:05:50,307 --> 00:05:51,600
I'm on it right now.

69
00:05:51,684 --> 00:05:53,269
I put him on it already.

70
00:05:54,478 --> 00:05:58,816
And here are the malls and outlets
where our brands are sold.

71
00:05:58,899 --> 00:06:01,068
It should help
with your upcoming meeting.

72
00:06:01,151 --> 00:06:03,195
Thank you, Mr. Yang.

73
00:06:04,280 --> 00:06:05,447
Here you go.

74
00:06:05,823 --> 00:06:07,783
Oh, thanks.

75
00:06:11,871 --> 00:06:13,080
- Ji-hye.
- Yes?

76
00:06:13,163 --> 00:06:16,083
We need two visitor passes
from Support.

77
00:06:16,166 --> 00:06:17,167
Did you...

78
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:19,003
already get them?

79
00:06:20,129 --> 00:06:21,589
Oh, dear...

80
00:06:23,215 --> 00:06:25,342
Ms. Lee, can you get them?

81
00:06:25,426 --> 00:06:27,928
I forgot. I'll get them now.

82
00:06:30,598 --> 00:06:32,308
SUPPLEMENT FOR STOMACH LINING

83
00:06:33,934 --> 00:06:35,936
Mr. Gong, have one of these.

84
00:06:36,020 --> 00:06:37,229
It's good for you.

85
00:06:37,980 --> 00:06:40,316
Thanks. I'll take it later.

86
00:06:40,399 --> 00:06:42,693
No, take it now.

87
00:07:04,632 --> 00:07:06,050
I should've shut him down sooner.

88
00:07:06,133 --> 00:07:08,093
- You liked it?
- Never mind.

89
00:07:12,890 --> 00:07:15,392
They work slower,
so we must be prepared.

90
00:07:18,771 --> 00:07:20,814
- Hello, Mr. Jang.
- Hello.

91
00:07:20,898 --> 00:07:21,899
Hi.

92
00:07:22,066 --> 00:07:23,651
- Oh, I remember.
- Yes.

93
00:07:23,734 --> 00:07:26,153
I'm thinking that's a possibility.

94
00:07:26,612 --> 00:07:29,573
- We should be prepared.
- Sakamoto is...

95
00:07:33,327 --> 00:07:34,328
Hello, sir.

96
00:07:35,579 --> 00:07:36,580
What are you two up to?

97
00:07:38,582 --> 00:07:41,460
We're preparing
for our meeting with Laknes.

98
00:07:42,169 --> 00:07:43,379
- You two?
- Yes.

99
00:07:45,422 --> 00:07:47,716
You... Never mind.

100
00:07:48,717 --> 00:07:51,011
So what's the plan?

101
00:07:51,929 --> 00:07:53,764
Why prepare
when we just need their signature?

102
00:07:53,847 --> 00:07:59,019
We thought we should show them
what we can do.

103
00:07:59,103 --> 00:08:01,563
What we're like when we get to work.

104
00:08:05,859 --> 00:08:09,780
Don't waste your time.
Just get the deal signed.

105
00:08:10,239 --> 00:08:13,033
Oh, and did you sort out
your other brands?

106
00:08:13,617 --> 00:08:16,537
I'm almost done. I'll wrap up soon.

107
00:08:16,996 --> 00:08:19,540
Why are you taking so long?

108
00:08:19,623 --> 00:08:21,333
- Finish up quickly.
- Yes, sir.

109
00:08:26,255 --> 00:08:28,173
- Then...
- Let's continue.

110
00:08:30,551 --> 00:08:34,596
Was Team 4 told to give up
any of your brands?

111
00:08:34,972 --> 00:08:36,682
We're barely surviving as is.
There's nothing to give up.

112
00:08:37,558 --> 00:08:38,559
Why do you ask?

113
00:08:38,851 --> 00:08:43,355
Ms. Joo asked if Team 4 agreed
to hand over any brands.

114
00:08:43,689 --> 00:08:45,941
Does my team need
to give yours anything?

115
00:08:46,692 --> 00:08:51,155
No, I'm just curious
why people are saying that.

116
00:08:52,072 --> 00:08:53,866
- Ju-hui.
- Yes?

117
00:08:54,366 --> 00:08:56,994
Someone from Team 1 or 2
will become associate director, yes?

118
00:08:57,953 --> 00:09:00,039
- Yes.
- Then why is Team 5

119
00:09:00,122 --> 00:09:01,707
giving its brands to Team 1?

120
00:09:03,959 --> 00:09:05,586
Because they have
too much on their plate?

121
00:09:07,921 --> 00:09:10,799
Teams 1 and 2 are competing
to get ahead.

122
00:09:11,341 --> 00:09:13,343
And Team 5 suffers in the process.

123
00:09:14,053 --> 00:09:17,222
It's like two thugs
getting into a bar fight

124
00:09:17,306 --> 00:09:20,059
and a civilian gets hit in the head
by a flying bottle.

125
00:09:20,142 --> 00:09:21,268
Got it?

126
00:09:22,102 --> 00:09:24,229
- Yes.
- You didn't get it.

127
00:09:25,355 --> 00:09:26,565
And Ms. Joo...

128
00:09:26,899 --> 00:09:28,609
She sided with Team 1.

129
00:09:29,068 --> 00:09:30,444
She thinks Mr. Kim will get promoted.

130
00:09:30,903 --> 00:09:31,904
But my team?

131
00:09:31,987 --> 00:09:34,615
No one will get promoted,
and we won't perform that well.

132
00:09:34,698 --> 00:09:36,450
No promotions, no bonuses.

133
00:09:36,825 --> 00:09:41,121
I'm saying,
keep us out of the office politics.

134
00:09:43,332 --> 00:09:45,125
You didn't get that, either.

135
00:09:48,629 --> 00:09:49,963
How did you get in here?

136
00:09:50,881 --> 00:09:51,882
I passed the entrance exam.

137
00:10:00,682 --> 00:10:01,767
Are these urgent?

138
00:10:02,142 --> 00:10:03,143
Somewhat.

139
00:10:06,105 --> 00:10:07,356
When is the Laknes meeting?

140
00:10:09,608 --> 00:10:10,859
It should start soon.

141
00:10:11,276 --> 00:10:12,611
What do you want for the brand?

142
00:10:12,694 --> 00:10:14,863
For us to launch it smoothly.

143
00:10:15,864 --> 00:10:17,658
- That's it?
- Yes.

144
00:10:17,991 --> 00:10:19,284
That's all I want.

145
00:10:20,327 --> 00:10:23,997
Do you think Gong and Yang
can work together after that fight?

146
00:10:25,499 --> 00:10:26,500
They're boys.

147
00:10:26,583 --> 00:10:28,335
They fight, but they make up.

148
00:10:30,546 --> 00:10:35,467
Mr. Jang, whatever the outcome,
this deal will benefit the company.

149
00:10:35,551 --> 00:10:38,887
But I'm not sure
if it'll benefit you too.

150
00:11:08,584 --> 00:11:09,960
- Here you go.
- Thanks.

151
00:11:10,460 --> 00:11:11,503
Everything looks good.

152
00:11:12,963 --> 00:11:14,131
Thank you.

153
00:11:20,429 --> 00:11:22,472
Perfect spacing
between the words and lines.

154
00:11:22,556 --> 00:11:24,183
WELCOME TO HONGSUNG
LAKNES ASIA KIM HYEONG-CHAN, SAKAMOTO

155
00:11:55,881 --> 00:11:57,216
I'm Team Leader Gong Eun-tae.

156
00:11:57,758 --> 00:11:59,718
It's a pleasure to meet you.
I'm Team Leader Gong Eun-tae.

157
00:12:00,844 --> 00:12:02,596
I'm Assistant Manager Yang Jun-ho
from Sales Team 5.

158
00:12:03,096 --> 00:12:05,766
I'm Assistant Manager Yang Jun-ho
from Sales Team 5.

159
00:12:06,391 --> 00:12:09,353
I'm Kim Hyeong-chan,
Director of Asia for Laknes.

160
00:12:10,395 --> 00:12:11,605
Hello, nice to meet you.

161
00:12:11,688 --> 00:12:15,067
I'm Sakamoto.
I oversee the Asian market.

162
00:12:15,901 --> 00:12:17,569
- Shall we?
- Yes.

163
00:12:20,697 --> 00:12:22,491
We have pretty good coffee here.

164
00:12:22,574 --> 00:12:24,368
- I hope you like it.
- Great, thank you.

165
00:12:24,451 --> 00:12:25,702
When did you arrive?

166
00:12:25,786 --> 00:12:26,995
We arrived yesterday.

167
00:12:27,079 --> 00:12:28,580
I see. You flew in yesterday.

168
00:12:28,664 --> 00:12:34,753
If you don't mind, may I tape
the meeting for our records?

169
00:12:36,004 --> 00:12:37,673
- Sure.
- Thank you.

170
00:12:46,932 --> 00:12:51,270
<i>I need you to do something for me
before the Laknes meeting.</i>

171
00:12:52,229 --> 00:12:55,941
<i>Ji-hye, find out what you can
about Kim Hyeong-chan and Sakamoto.</i>

172
00:12:56,900 --> 00:13:00,028
<i>Their past tells you who they are.</i>

173
00:13:03,615 --> 00:13:08,537
I'd like to know how a Korean
became Director of Asia.

174
00:13:08,620 --> 00:13:10,914
As a fellow Korean,
it makes me proud.

175
00:13:11,290 --> 00:13:13,417
I studied fashion design in Spain.

176
00:13:14,042 --> 00:13:17,129
I was lucky enough
to start as a VMD at Zara.

177
00:13:17,504 --> 00:13:21,425
I did that for about three years
before moving to Philipp Plein.

178
00:13:21,508 --> 00:13:25,470
Oh, I think I heard
about a Korean working there.

179
00:13:25,929 --> 00:13:27,723
That's when I met Ms. Park Hyeon-suk.

180
00:13:28,515 --> 00:13:33,603
Then I started my own business,
but it didn't work out.

181
00:13:34,688 --> 00:13:37,858
That's when I joined Laknes.

182
00:13:40,110 --> 00:13:42,612
We could learn a lot from you.

183
00:13:42,696 --> 00:13:45,198
Not at all.
I'm sure you're both very capable.

184
00:13:45,907 --> 00:13:50,203
<i>Gi-tae, list questions we can use
to gain the upper hand.</i>

185
00:13:50,704 --> 00:13:53,165
<i>In negotiations, questions are power.</i>

186
00:13:53,248 --> 00:13:55,876
WOULD YOU CONSIDER HIRING HONGSUNG
STAFF WHEN ESTABLISHING A DESIGN LAB?

187
00:13:55,959 --> 00:13:58,879
Laknes is doing well in Japan, right?

188
00:13:58,962 --> 00:14:04,509
Japan runs its own promotions
to support the brand.

189
00:14:04,593 --> 00:14:08,221
Does the head office provide
a separate promotional budget?

190
00:14:13,643 --> 00:14:17,314
We get 3% of the order value
to spend on promotions.

191
00:14:17,647 --> 00:14:19,191
As much as 3%?

192
00:14:19,649 --> 00:14:21,318
Wow, that's a lot.

193
00:14:21,777 --> 00:14:24,821
What margin did you offer
the Japanese market?

194
00:14:26,239 --> 00:14:29,826
Leather goods at 70%,
and apparel at 75%.

195
00:14:30,452 --> 00:14:35,040
Is it true that you offered us
60% for leather and 65% for apparel?

196
00:14:36,375 --> 00:14:39,544
I believe we've settled
the baseline margin.

197
00:14:40,212 --> 00:14:42,464
Isn't there always
room for negotiation?

198
00:14:42,547 --> 00:14:46,301
The truth is,
we were headed for Japan.

199
00:14:46,676 --> 00:14:52,099
We called Ms. Park to say hello,
and she arranged this meeting.

200
00:14:52,516 --> 00:14:55,811
Yes, we know
we requested this meeting.

201
00:14:57,813 --> 00:14:58,939
I'll be honest.

202
00:15:00,315 --> 00:15:02,943
We're especially wary
because Korea failed us once before.

203
00:15:03,568 --> 00:15:06,738
We're already doing just fine
in Japan

204
00:15:07,114 --> 00:15:09,991
so we're not sure
why we should enter Korea again.

205
00:15:12,077 --> 00:15:15,372
<i>I'll go through Laknes's
last five financial statements.</i>

206
00:15:19,084 --> 00:15:21,128
<i>The answer is in the numbers.</i>

207
00:15:23,296 --> 00:15:27,467
The purchasing patterns
and recent changes.

208
00:15:31,763 --> 00:15:34,307
To be frank, we were hesitant too.

209
00:15:35,434 --> 00:15:40,147
We do all the work to improve
brand awareness, and the deal ends.

210
00:15:40,647 --> 00:15:44,734
I know many brands switched partners
for a higher baseline margin.

211
00:15:45,652 --> 00:15:47,070
I'm not saying that's wrong.

212
00:15:47,487 --> 00:15:49,197
I'm saying we take on that risk.

213
00:15:53,743 --> 00:15:58,498
You can give 3% of total sales
as a staff incentive.

214
00:16:01,084 --> 00:16:03,879
That's their livelihood,
so that's a given.

215
00:16:04,421 --> 00:16:06,256
Could you reconsider the margin?

216
00:16:06,339 --> 00:16:09,426
A 65% apparel margin puts you
between Pinster and Mareige.

217
00:16:09,509 --> 00:16:11,678
But Laknes is
nothing like those brands.

218
00:16:12,095 --> 00:16:14,639
Are you aware we take back
all the dead stock?

219
00:16:14,723 --> 00:16:16,600
Yes, that's actually
more work for us.

220
00:16:16,892 --> 00:16:19,561
We have to pick up everything
and send it back to France.

221
00:16:19,644 --> 00:16:21,980
The only one who profits
is the logistics company.

222
00:16:22,355 --> 00:16:24,149
How about after the launch

223
00:16:24,608 --> 00:16:27,360
we provide enough product
to stock the outlet stores too?

224
00:16:27,736 --> 00:16:29,029
Would that work?

225
00:16:29,112 --> 00:16:33,241
No, we'll handle the malls
and outlets from the start.

226
00:16:34,034 --> 00:16:37,746
In return, give us the same
70% and 75% margins as Japan.

227
00:16:46,379 --> 00:16:47,380
I'm sorry.

228
00:16:48,256 --> 00:16:49,549
I can't do that.

229
00:17:04,898 --> 00:17:06,566
Hey, how do you think it went?

230
00:17:07,776 --> 00:17:09,653
I think it went badly.

231
00:17:11,446 --> 00:17:12,572
Darn it.

232
00:17:28,463 --> 00:17:30,465
Did you see the look
in Sakamoto's eyes?

233
00:17:30,549 --> 00:17:32,592
- No.
- It was bad.

234
00:17:41,893 --> 00:17:43,270
How did it go, Mr. Gong?

235
00:17:44,062 --> 00:17:46,565
- Mr. Yang?
- Let's go upstairs.

236
00:17:46,648 --> 00:17:48,858
- Okay.
- Be quick.

237
00:17:53,697 --> 00:17:55,490
- Gi-tae.
- Yes?

238
00:17:55,949 --> 00:17:57,158
Do you have plans later?

239
00:17:57,909 --> 00:17:58,910
No.

240
00:17:59,661 --> 00:18:00,662
Ji-hye, you?

241
00:18:01,580 --> 00:18:03,164
I'm free too.

242
00:18:04,082 --> 00:18:05,083
Are you?

243
00:18:05,625 --> 00:18:06,876
Then shall we go out...

244
00:18:08,044 --> 00:18:09,045
No.

245
00:18:09,879 --> 00:18:10,880
- What?
- What?

246
00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:13,466
Forget it. It's no big deal.

247
00:18:15,969 --> 00:18:17,304
Did the deal go okay?

248
00:18:20,181 --> 00:18:22,183
What happened? Yes or no?

249
00:18:24,811 --> 00:18:26,896
Why won't either of you say anything?

250
00:18:29,232 --> 00:18:30,317
Did they sign the deal?

251
00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:32,611
- Mr. Gong.
- What happened?

252
00:18:33,612 --> 00:18:34,946
Let's get a drink later.

253
00:18:37,616 --> 00:18:38,825
Forget the drinks.

254
00:18:40,660 --> 00:18:42,829
- Mr. Yang!
- Mr. Yang? Mr. Gong?

255
00:18:44,623 --> 00:18:47,334
We got 65% for leather,
70% for apparel.

256
00:18:47,584 --> 00:18:51,129
We increased the margins by 5%
with a separate incentive clause.

257
00:18:53,923 --> 00:18:56,009
- Good job.
- Thank you.

258
00:18:56,468 --> 00:18:59,220
I owe it to you
for letting us do our jobs.

259
00:18:59,512 --> 00:19:02,307
Also, Mr. Yang played a huge role.

260
00:19:04,392 --> 00:19:07,062
These are the brands
that grew under our management.

261
00:19:07,479 --> 00:19:10,690
They all grew by over 50%
from the previous year.

262
00:19:18,114 --> 00:19:20,909
We're not asking for a higher margin
without reason.

263
00:19:20,992 --> 00:19:24,537
We're asking you to recognize
the value of our work.

264
00:19:25,538 --> 00:19:29,459
We can deliver better results
than anyone else.

265
00:19:30,251 --> 00:19:33,963
The document you're reading
proves that.

266
00:19:41,262 --> 00:19:45,016
What does the Korean market
mean to Laknes?

267
00:19:47,644 --> 00:19:49,813
It's a stepping stone to China

268
00:19:49,896 --> 00:19:52,982
so you don't lose anything
as long as you make a decent profit.

269
00:19:54,442 --> 00:19:56,653
That's why your brand
ended up with our team.

270
00:19:57,612 --> 00:19:59,447
We're the weakest team.

271
00:19:59,989 --> 00:20:03,993
They expect us to do an average job
and give you what you want.

272
00:20:05,078 --> 00:20:10,208
You two expected to come here,
sign the deal, and move on.

273
00:20:10,291 --> 00:20:11,292
Am I wrong?

274
00:20:14,587 --> 00:20:16,131
No, I won't deny that.

275
00:20:16,423 --> 00:20:18,550
I'm sorry, but we have
no intention of doing that.

276
00:20:19,050 --> 00:20:21,553
To you, Korea might be
just a stepping stone

277
00:20:21,636 --> 00:20:24,639
but to us, Laknes is a brand
we must build and grow.

278
00:20:25,473 --> 00:20:28,101
We don't want to settle
for an average profit.

279
00:20:29,394 --> 00:20:31,062
Adjust the margin.

280
00:20:31,396 --> 00:20:32,897
You'll make much more.

281
00:20:34,649 --> 00:20:36,776
Are you that confident?

282
00:20:39,154 --> 00:20:40,363
You saw the numbers.

283
00:20:47,537 --> 00:20:48,913
Good job.

284
00:20:51,291 --> 00:20:52,500
You deserve a team dinner.

285
00:20:54,377 --> 00:20:55,628
Put it on this card.

286
00:20:56,212 --> 00:20:57,213
Thank you.

287
00:20:58,006 --> 00:20:59,007
Mr. Gong.

288
00:20:59,716 --> 00:21:02,177
Did you consider which brands
to give Team 1?

289
00:21:02,552 --> 00:21:04,262
Yes, I did.

290
00:21:04,721 --> 00:21:05,722
<i>Mr. Yang.</i>

291
00:21:06,556 --> 00:21:08,433
Do you want to shake things up
with me?

292
00:21:10,226 --> 00:21:11,895
You're making me feel uneasy.

293
00:21:13,229 --> 00:21:14,981
I'm going to turn
this company around.

294
00:21:18,735 --> 00:21:20,403
We'll keep them all.

295
00:21:22,655 --> 00:21:24,949
What do you mean
you'll keep them all?

296
00:21:25,492 --> 00:21:26,826
We keep all our brands?

297
00:21:28,411 --> 00:21:30,371
What happens then?

298
00:21:31,414 --> 00:21:32,415
Who knows?

299
00:21:33,541 --> 00:21:35,001
That's why I said, "shake things up."

300
00:21:35,710 --> 00:21:37,003
What are you saying?

301
00:21:37,378 --> 00:21:39,214
- You can't do all...
- Let him talk.

302
00:21:40,173 --> 00:21:41,591
Aren't you being too ambitious?

303
00:21:41,841 --> 00:21:43,051
You lack the manpower.

304
00:21:43,426 --> 00:21:47,222
That's why I'd appreciate it
if you gave us some extra help.

305
00:21:47,931 --> 00:21:49,808
Then can you handle it all?

306
00:21:49,891 --> 00:21:50,892
Yes, we can.

307
00:21:51,351 --> 00:21:53,186
I've already assigned the tasks.

308
00:21:53,436 --> 00:21:55,104
I think it's doable.

309
00:21:57,857 --> 00:21:59,651
<i>Will Mr. Jang be okay with that?</i>

310
00:21:59,901 --> 00:22:01,945
I can see his furious expression.

311
00:22:02,779 --> 00:22:05,406
That's for me to handle
as team leader.

312
00:22:09,452 --> 00:22:12,747
I don't know anything
about office politics.

313
00:22:13,122 --> 00:22:17,418
I just don't want someone else
to benefit from my hard work.

314
00:22:18,753 --> 00:22:20,630
You know nothing
about office politics?

315
00:22:20,713 --> 00:22:23,258
Politics and I don't mix.

316
00:22:27,595 --> 00:22:28,805
Let's do it, then.

317
00:22:31,683 --> 00:22:33,142
Sales Team 2.

318
00:22:34,519 --> 00:22:35,520
Yes.

319
00:22:35,979 --> 00:22:36,980
Mr. Son?

320
00:22:37,814 --> 00:22:39,691
Okay, I'll pass it on.

321
00:22:41,234 --> 00:22:42,277
What is it?

322
00:22:42,360 --> 00:22:44,946
- A team leader meeting.
- Right now?

323
00:22:45,029 --> 00:22:46,030
Okay.

324
00:22:46,948 --> 00:22:48,867
- You have a meeting, Mr. Jeong.
- With whom?

325
00:22:48,950 --> 00:22:51,035
- Ms. Park.
- Darn it.

326
00:22:52,120 --> 00:22:54,747
This is just stupid.

327
00:23:03,506 --> 00:23:05,425
- Mr. Yang.
<i>- Is it done yet?</i>

328
00:23:05,508 --> 00:23:08,386
We're almost done.
How far did you get?

329
00:23:08,469 --> 00:23:10,430
- It's printing now.
- We're printing it now.

330
00:23:10,513 --> 00:23:12,849
<i>- Hurry up.</i>
- We'll be right down.

331
00:23:19,022 --> 00:23:21,274
Ji-hye, mine will be printed first.

332
00:23:29,490 --> 00:23:30,825
Here's what you asked for.

333
00:23:30,909 --> 00:23:32,327
This covers each team's brands

334
00:23:32,410 --> 00:23:34,495
and this includes the sales figures.

335
00:23:34,579 --> 00:23:37,081
This is each team's current schedule.

336
00:23:38,666 --> 00:23:41,377
- Good job, both of you.
- Will they be okay with this?

337
00:23:41,711 --> 00:23:43,796
Mr. Jang looked sour.

338
00:23:44,255 --> 00:23:47,050
There's no going back now.
It can't be helped.

339
00:23:49,802 --> 00:23:51,763
- Good luck, sir.
- Good luck, Mr. Gong.

340
00:23:53,014 --> 00:23:57,477
It's almost time to clock out,
so I'll keep this short.

341
00:23:57,977 --> 00:23:58,978
Okay.

342
00:23:59,812 --> 00:24:03,691
Sales Team 5 took on Laknes,
a brand no one else wanted

343
00:24:03,775 --> 00:24:05,777
and signed the deal in our favor.

344
00:24:07,028 --> 00:24:08,237
Let's give them a hand.

345
00:24:13,952 --> 00:24:19,374
The original plan was for them
to hand a few brands to Team 1.

346
00:24:20,124 --> 00:24:22,043
But Mr. Gong changed his mind.

347
00:24:23,753 --> 00:24:25,338
He'll keep them all.

348
00:24:26,798 --> 00:24:30,426
I called you all here
to praise him publicly.

349
00:24:31,678 --> 00:24:33,721
Mr. Gong, what's your reasoning?

350
00:24:39,811 --> 00:24:42,522
I thought that was why
my team was created.

351
00:24:43,314 --> 00:24:44,857
Sales Team 1 is a core team

352
00:24:45,441 --> 00:24:49,821
that handles 30%
of our division's total sales.

353
00:24:50,238 --> 00:24:52,782
I shouldn't burden them with brands

354
00:24:53,032 --> 00:24:55,243
that are only starting
to turn a profit.

355
00:24:56,786 --> 00:24:57,954
I'd like our team

356
00:24:58,788 --> 00:25:00,248
to handle its own business.

357
00:25:03,710 --> 00:25:06,254
Mr. Son, what do you think?

358
00:25:07,380 --> 00:25:08,631
I respect him.

359
00:25:09,966 --> 00:25:13,636
I didn't think the youngest
team leader had that kind of idea.

360
00:25:14,095 --> 00:25:15,471
- You respect him?
- Yes.

361
00:25:15,972 --> 00:25:17,849
Shouldn't you be ashamed of yourself?

362
00:25:20,893 --> 00:25:23,229
- Mr. Kim.
- Yes, ma'am.

363
00:25:23,938 --> 00:25:25,231
What do you think?

364
00:25:27,650 --> 00:25:28,651
I'm ashamed.

365
00:25:29,444 --> 00:25:31,446
- Are you?
- Yes.

366
00:25:32,405 --> 00:25:34,323
- Ms. Joo.
- Yes, ma'am.

367
00:25:35,324 --> 00:25:38,536
I hear you're still bullying brands
into giving you their new products.

368
00:25:38,953 --> 00:25:39,954
Is that true?

369
00:25:43,207 --> 00:25:44,542
You should know better.

370
00:25:47,170 --> 00:25:49,130
- What about you, Mr. Jeong?
- Yes?

371
00:25:49,922 --> 00:25:52,717
I'm embarrassed as well.

372
00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:56,179
The other team leaders
are competing to get ahead.

373
00:25:56,637 --> 00:26:01,309
Have you decided to do nothing
since you won't get promoted, anyway?

374
00:26:02,894 --> 00:26:04,020
That's not it.

375
00:26:07,148 --> 00:26:08,191
Guys.

376
00:26:08,649 --> 00:26:09,859
- Yes?
- Yes?

377
00:26:11,736 --> 00:26:13,821
No one will say it out loud

378
00:26:14,697 --> 00:26:17,158
but you all know
why Laknes went to Team 5

379
00:26:17,533 --> 00:26:20,119
why Team 5 was supposed
to give its brands to Team 1

380
00:26:20,203 --> 00:26:22,121
and who will be promoted
to associate director.

381
00:26:22,205 --> 00:26:25,124
You're all playing chess
in your heads.

382
00:26:26,584 --> 00:26:29,587
You all think you're so smart.

383
00:26:31,964 --> 00:26:32,965
Mr. Jang.

384
00:26:33,633 --> 00:26:34,634
Yes, ma'am.

385
00:26:34,926 --> 00:26:36,844
Jang Hyang-eun returns from China.

386
00:26:37,178 --> 00:26:38,846
Yes, she'll be back next week.

387
00:26:39,722 --> 00:26:40,807
Send her to Team 5.

388
00:26:42,975 --> 00:26:43,976
Yes, ma'am.

389
00:26:45,895 --> 00:26:47,647
Make yourselves useful.

390
00:26:48,648 --> 00:26:50,316
Don't just scheme.

391
00:26:50,983 --> 00:26:51,984
Do some work.

392
00:26:57,448 --> 00:26:58,533
Bye, ma'am.

393
00:27:08,251 --> 00:27:09,544
Everyone leave
except for Gong Eun-tae.

394
00:27:19,554 --> 00:27:21,055
{\an8}TEAM LEADER GONG EUN-TAE

395
00:27:35,403 --> 00:27:37,905
Mr. Jeong, where's Mr. Gong?

396
00:27:37,989 --> 00:27:41,200
He'll need some time
to clean up the mess he made.

397
00:27:41,284 --> 00:27:42,410
You can go home.

398
00:27:46,205 --> 00:27:47,206
Go home.

399
00:27:57,884 --> 00:27:58,968
Why did you do it?

400
00:28:04,515 --> 00:28:06,017
Why won't you answer me?

401
00:28:08,186 --> 00:28:10,813
Why didn't you do as I said?

402
00:28:14,108 --> 00:28:16,360
I did as you said.

403
00:28:17,862 --> 00:28:19,697
You told me to take on Laknes,
so I did.

404
00:28:20,156 --> 00:28:22,575
And I listed up the brands
to give to Team 1.

405
00:28:23,743 --> 00:28:27,872
But then I thought I could do it all
with one extra teammate.

406
00:28:28,289 --> 00:28:30,541
Can't I at least ask for that?

407
00:28:34,545 --> 00:28:36,380
What's gotten into you?

408
00:28:37,131 --> 00:28:40,176
Why are you talking back
like you have nothing to lose?

409
00:28:41,135 --> 00:28:43,638
You don't know your place
now that you're a team leader?

410
00:28:44,430 --> 00:28:45,431
That's not it.

411
00:28:46,265 --> 00:28:50,061
Now that I'm a team leader,
I know what the job entails.

412
00:28:53,314 --> 00:28:58,277
Gosh, you're talking like
you've lost a few screws.

413
00:28:58,611 --> 00:29:00,404
Okay, then.

414
00:29:01,906 --> 00:29:04,367
Do you think team leaders
have a fixed job description?

415
00:29:04,450 --> 00:29:05,993
Who decided that?

416
00:29:07,620 --> 00:29:08,663
Gong Eun-tae.

417
00:29:09,455 --> 00:29:11,707
Team leaders,
associate directors, and directors...

418
00:29:11,791 --> 00:29:15,544
They're all people
who do as they're told.

419
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:19,173
If you can't do that,
just start your own business.

420
00:29:20,675 --> 00:29:22,009
This company

421
00:29:22,718 --> 00:29:24,428
isn't yours, is it?

422
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:25,721
You bastard!

423
00:29:26,264 --> 00:29:28,516
I can't believe what I'm hearing.

424
00:29:28,849 --> 00:29:29,850
Mr. Jang.

425
00:29:31,477 --> 00:29:32,812
In my first year here

426
00:29:33,187 --> 00:29:38,192
do you remember taking clueless me
to Paris to sign a deal?

427
00:29:38,276 --> 00:29:39,735
What about it?

428
00:29:40,236 --> 00:29:42,238
We took a red-eye on Saturday.

429
00:29:43,114 --> 00:29:44,740
We worked all weekend

430
00:29:44,824 --> 00:29:46,909
and went straight to another meeting
when we landed Tuesday.

431
00:29:48,286 --> 00:29:50,204
I did that for just one week

432
00:29:50,830 --> 00:29:55,501
but you'd been doing that
for the whole month.

433
00:29:58,671 --> 00:29:59,964
Sure, we were busy.

434
00:30:00,047 --> 00:30:03,050
We couldn't send anyone else.
So what?

435
00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:06,012
You did that

436
00:30:06,887 --> 00:30:09,223
because, like me now,
you were the youngest team leader.

437
00:30:09,849 --> 00:30:12,101
You worked that hard

438
00:30:12,685 --> 00:30:15,062
because you didn't want
your team to suffer

439
00:30:15,146 --> 00:30:17,106
for having the youngest team leader.

440
00:30:18,024 --> 00:30:19,442
Thanks to your sacrifice

441
00:30:19,525 --> 00:30:21,777
we were able to keep our heads down
and work hard.

442
00:30:25,823 --> 00:30:26,824
Hey.

443
00:30:28,743 --> 00:30:30,703
A company is an organization, okay?

444
00:30:31,537 --> 00:30:35,249
Those above lead and pull
while those below support them.

445
00:30:35,624 --> 00:30:39,003
Laknes was my way of telling you
I'd take you with me.

446
00:30:39,462 --> 00:30:42,631
All you had to do was obey
and support me.

447
00:30:45,176 --> 00:30:46,719
I don't know that much yet.

448
00:30:46,802 --> 00:30:48,971
Maybe I'll understand
when I'm an associate director.

449
00:30:50,848 --> 00:30:52,850
You moron...

450
00:30:55,144 --> 00:30:56,896
Mr. Jang.

451
00:30:58,064 --> 00:30:59,648
Back in the day

452
00:31:00,358 --> 00:31:02,318
you argued with staff
at each brand's head office

453
00:31:03,486 --> 00:31:05,196
and sucked up to store staff.

454
00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:10,117
Despite all that,
you bought us soju to cheer us up.

455
00:31:11,619 --> 00:31:15,539
That's how great
a team leader you were.

456
00:31:18,292 --> 00:31:22,546
Can't I be a team leader like you?

457
00:31:27,676 --> 00:31:29,470
Did you get a job offer?

458
00:31:31,097 --> 00:31:33,474
You can be honest.

459
00:31:34,183 --> 00:31:35,184
You did.

460
00:31:35,267 --> 00:31:39,188
Either that, or you're doing this
because you have a Plan B.

461
00:31:39,897 --> 00:31:41,857
No? What is it, then?

462
00:31:42,525 --> 00:31:43,984
Did you win the lottery or something?

463
00:31:46,737 --> 00:31:47,863
Darn it.

464
00:32:05,256 --> 00:32:06,424
I got scared as hell.

465
00:32:23,732 --> 00:32:25,192
You sly thing.

466
00:32:29,405 --> 00:32:31,115
I can't stand you.

467
00:32:33,325 --> 00:32:36,370
- They should be done by now.
- Right?

468
00:32:37,079 --> 00:32:38,122
Hey, look.

469
00:32:44,670 --> 00:32:45,880
You didn't go home?

470
00:32:46,422 --> 00:32:47,840
Well...

471
00:32:49,425 --> 00:32:51,469
Were you afraid
I'd kill your team leader?

472
00:32:51,552 --> 00:32:53,429
Gosh, no.

473
00:32:54,096 --> 00:32:55,431
We're going out to dinner.

474
00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:03,856
You're a weird bunch.

475
00:33:04,690 --> 00:33:07,526
Just a few days ago,
you wanted to tear each other apart.

476
00:33:08,944 --> 00:33:10,738
- Here.
- No, thanks.

477
00:33:10,821 --> 00:33:12,364
Ms. Park gave me hers.

478
00:33:12,698 --> 00:33:14,074
I'll pay for the second round.

479
00:33:15,034 --> 00:33:16,702
Okay, then. Thank you.

480
00:33:18,370 --> 00:33:19,788
- Mr. Yang.
- Yes, sir.

481
00:33:20,664 --> 00:33:23,834
Your team leader loves beef so much
it'll wake him right up.

482
00:33:24,293 --> 00:33:26,086
- Have beef for dinner.
- Okay.

483
00:33:26,337 --> 00:33:28,047
- And go somewhere cheap for round 2.
- Got it.

484
00:33:29,256 --> 00:33:30,382
- Thank you.
- Bye, sir.

485
00:33:30,466 --> 00:33:31,592
Thank you.

486
00:33:38,557 --> 00:33:39,683
Hey, Eun-tae.

487
00:33:41,143 --> 00:33:42,394
Laknes...

488
00:33:43,270 --> 00:33:44,313
It'll do well.

489
00:33:45,147 --> 00:33:47,066
I wouldn't have given it to you
otherwise.

490
00:33:57,159 --> 00:33:58,202
Let's go.

491
00:33:58,619 --> 00:34:00,037
- Yes, sir.
- Okay.

492
00:34:27,940 --> 00:34:29,316
Do you know what to do?

493
00:34:35,990 --> 00:34:37,449
- Cheers!
- Cheers!

494
00:34:41,453 --> 00:34:43,038
Snap, snap.

495
00:35:07,146 --> 00:35:08,397
<i>You're embarrassed?</i>

496
00:35:09,398 --> 00:35:11,900
The other team leaders
are competing to get ahead.

497
00:35:12,401 --> 00:35:17,239
<i>Have you decided to do nothing
since you won't get promoted, anyway?</i>

498
00:35:25,372 --> 00:35:26,457
Good job, everyone.

499
00:35:26,540 --> 00:35:28,292
- You too.
- Good work.

500
00:35:32,171 --> 00:35:35,633
Mr. Gong, I feel awesome today.

501
00:35:36,383 --> 00:35:37,551
Why is that?

502
00:35:38,093 --> 00:35:39,303
It's like...

503
00:35:39,887 --> 00:35:43,724
I feel like I helped close this deal.

504
00:35:43,807 --> 00:35:45,017
That's why I feel good.

505
00:35:45,309 --> 00:35:48,812
I didn't actually do anything,
but that's how I feel.

506
00:35:48,896 --> 00:35:51,690
You're right. You didn't do anything.

507
00:35:51,982 --> 00:35:54,401
- What?
- We all did it together.

508
00:35:54,485 --> 00:35:56,195
Right, Mr. Gong?

509
00:35:56,278 --> 00:35:58,322
- See?
- Okay, let's go with that.

510
00:35:58,405 --> 00:35:59,490
"Let's go with that"?

511
00:36:01,241 --> 00:36:04,578
I appreciate Mr. Jang more now.

512
00:36:05,704 --> 00:36:06,747
How so?

513
00:36:07,373 --> 00:36:09,792
He said you liked beef

514
00:36:09,875 --> 00:36:11,669
and he gave us his corporate card.

515
00:36:12,086 --> 00:36:14,380
He also said Laknes would do well.

516
00:36:16,215 --> 00:36:17,549
He's like that.

517
00:36:17,966 --> 00:36:21,553
He knows exactly when to use
the carrot and the stick.

518
00:36:21,637 --> 00:36:24,098
It all worked out today, though.

519
00:36:24,181 --> 00:36:27,226
That's why I don't resent Mr. Jang

520
00:36:28,102 --> 00:36:29,645
even when he yells and curses me out.

521
00:36:29,728 --> 00:36:31,605
His praise means
just as little to me.

522
00:36:32,523 --> 00:36:36,443
I don't trust others enough
to let their words sway me.

523
00:36:39,196 --> 00:36:42,032
What do you believe in, then?

524
00:37:08,225 --> 00:37:09,268
<i>My past.</i>

525
00:37:15,357 --> 00:37:17,317
I believe in the life I've lived.

526
00:37:22,573 --> 00:37:24,533
That's so freaking cool.

527
00:37:25,117 --> 00:37:27,161
Can I quote that?

528
00:37:27,244 --> 00:37:28,829
No, don't you dare.

529
00:37:29,788 --> 00:37:32,416
"My past. I believe in the life..."

530
00:37:33,917 --> 00:37:36,086
Don't imitate me. It's embarrassing.

531
00:37:36,170 --> 00:37:37,337
Did I say it wrong?

532
00:37:37,421 --> 00:37:39,506
You shouldn't put so much faith
in your past.

533
00:37:39,590 --> 00:37:41,216
- That'll end badly.
- Why?

534
00:37:41,300 --> 00:37:42,634
- Can I try?
- Sure.

535
00:37:42,718 --> 00:37:45,637
"My past.
I believe in the life I've lived."

536
00:37:45,721 --> 00:37:47,347
- I said it better.
- Excuse me.

537
00:37:47,431 --> 00:37:49,641
You can't say it better than me.

538
00:37:49,725 --> 00:37:51,351
Say it properly, will you?

539
00:37:51,435 --> 00:37:53,061
"My past. I believe in my past."

540
00:37:53,145 --> 00:37:55,022
- Is that not right?
- You said it wrong.

541
00:37:55,647 --> 00:37:57,024
Why are you calling so late?

542
00:37:57,107 --> 00:37:59,193
The time is the least of our worries.

543
00:37:59,276 --> 00:38:01,570
The girl returning from China
is joining your team?

544
00:38:02,488 --> 00:38:03,489
Jang Hyang-eun.

545
00:38:03,822 --> 00:38:05,908
Jang Hyang-eun returns from China.

546
00:38:05,991 --> 00:38:07,701
Yes, she'll be back next week.

547
00:38:09,036 --> 00:38:10,245
Send her to Team 5.

548
00:38:11,038 --> 00:38:13,457
{\an8}<i>Yes, she'll join my team. Why?</i>

549
00:38:13,832 --> 00:38:15,751
{\an8}<i>You accepted her willingly?</i>

550
00:38:15,834 --> 00:38:18,420
{\an8}<i>I did. She's good at her job.</i>

551
00:38:20,130 --> 00:38:23,926
Gong, I didn't mention this
because it's classified.

552
00:38:24,551 --> 00:38:26,553
The China branch is about to implode.

553
00:38:30,224 --> 00:38:31,308
What do you mean?

554
00:38:32,059 --> 00:38:34,436
<i>The branch was deeply corrupt.</i>

555
00:38:35,020 --> 00:38:39,024
<i>Word is, Jang Hyang-eun
was at the center of it all.</i>

556
00:38:40,025 --> 00:38:41,819
I think you picked the wrong person.

557
00:39:17,855 --> 00:39:22,776
THE ORDINARY JACKPOT

558
00:39:35,163 --> 00:39:38,125
That's why your brand
ended up with our team.

559
00:39:38,584 --> 00:39:41,169
We're the weakest team.

560
00:39:42,170 --> 00:39:47,092
They expect us to do an average job
and give you what you want.

561
00:39:48,594 --> 00:39:55,559
You two expected to come here,
sign the deal, and move on.

562
00:39:56,894 --> 00:39:57,978
Am I wrong?

563
00:40:00,689 --> 00:40:02,190
Okay, next.

564
00:40:03,275 --> 00:40:05,819
<i>I'm sorry, but we have
no intention of doing that.</i>

565
00:40:05,903 --> 00:40:07,988
"I'm sorry, but we have..."

566
00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:11,283
<i>To you, Korea might be
just a stepping stone</i>

567
00:40:11,366 --> 00:40:14,578
<i>but to us, Laknes is a brand
we must build and grow.</i>

568
00:40:15,287 --> 00:40:17,122
<i>Adjust the margin.</i>

569
00:40:17,623 --> 00:40:19,249
<i>You'll make that much more.</i>

570
00:40:20,375 --> 00:40:22,127
<i>Are you that confident?</i>

571
00:40:23,128 --> 00:40:24,421
<i>You saw the numbers.</i>

572
00:40:26,924 --> 00:40:29,217
"You saw the numbers."

573
00:40:34,598 --> 00:40:35,849
You saw the numbers.

574
00:40:36,892 --> 00:40:38,352
That's not it.

575
00:40:39,394 --> 00:40:40,395
You saw the numbers.

576
00:40:40,479 --> 00:40:41,730
The numbers. You saw them.

577
00:40:41,813 --> 00:40:43,815
Hey, did you see this? The numbers.

578
00:40:43,899 --> 00:40:45,442
You saw the numbers, didn't you?

579
00:40:46,526 --> 00:40:47,694
You saw the num...

580
00:40:50,572 --> 00:40:51,907
Mr. Gong.

581
00:40:52,491 --> 00:40:53,533
Mr. Yang.

582
00:40:54,117 --> 00:40:55,118
Ji-hye?

583
00:41:07,214 --> 00:41:08,674
What the...

584
00:41:10,425 --> 00:41:12,052
That was so embarrassing.

585
00:43:42,410 --> 00:43:44,412
