TAKE CHARGE OF MY HEART

Look at her.

How's she not hot in that?

I hear she's a germophobe.

Her phone case is a fucking brick.

She wraps it like that 'cause of germs.

Class is starting.

Back to your seats.

If the class president says so.

There was a time

when I had hope.

Hey, did you just hear that?

The class president's looking out for you.

How was that looking out for me?

So you and I can eat together.

Good Eats has the new jjajang tteokbokki. I wanna try it.

Maybe not Good Eats…

What was that?

What?

Your face lit up when you saw the class president just now.

No, it didn't.

Yeah, it did.

All right. Focus.

The hope that maybe someone out there

could accept a monster like me.

We'll look at the average rate of change from a to b.

Now, delta y over delta x equals f(b) minus f(a) over b minus a…

It's Pepero Day.

I got you something too.

Thank you.

I'll enjoy it.

I'm sorry!

-I-- -What did you do?

Did you get hurt?

Let me see.

Hey, it's bad.

-Was that on purpose? -You need a doctor.

-What did she do? -You should see a doctor.

Are you sure you're okay?

-I'm sorry. Are you-- -Don't touch me.

Don't come near me.

But reality

kept crushing every hope I had.

Always telling me I was different from everyone else.

No.

That I was wrong.

Sir, you should get that treated first.

It's fine.

Check the next flight and see if the airport's back to normal.

Sir.

I'm sorry.

You missed your flight because of me.

You were trying to protect me…

What's that? Are you hurt?

No, it's fine.

-Let me see. You're bleeding. Right here-- -I said it's fine.

Now even Mr. Baek Ho-rang knows.

That I'm a monster.

You got hurt because of me.

I'm sorry.

Don't worry about it.

Why did I dare to hope again?

Nothing about me has changed.

Why did I let myself…

hope for an ordinary life again?

Oh, wait.

What happened here?

I had it done before the trip.

I promised I'd renovate it for you.

This place was empty, so…

Just

use it as a studio.

What about the bed?

What?

Why did you take the bed out?

Well,

they say it's better

to keep your workspace and bedroom separate.

And there are plenty of spare rooms here.

I think it'd be best to use this room just as a workspace.

I'll just stay here.

I can sleep on the couch.

Why?

You don't want to come inside?

This is a contractual relationship.

We just have to stay within ten meters. We don't need to be any closer.

That's what you said.

Well,

if it's because of this injury--

No, it's not that. It's just…

I've been thinking about what you said in Jeju,

and it made me a little uncomfortable.

Could you leave now? I'm a little tired.

What are you even talking about?

Good morning.

Hello.

Did everyone get some rest?

-Ms. Yang. -Yes?

Can you check Mr. Baek's schedule for me?

Sure.

Did you leak Na Bo-bae's info?

RÉSUMÉ

LOOKS LIKE SHE LIVES SOMEWHERE ELSE

Interesting.

Just let it slip that she works at TS Resort.

Those who can't resist digging into other people's lives

will find the rest.

You guys know where this is? TS Resort, the best resort in the country.

I'm here to meet Ji Eun-ho's fiancée.

Look! It's the resort staff!

They refuse to acknowledge us.

The fans are up in arms, and it's total chaos!

They're losing it, calling it favoritism. You see this?

Man, this is…

Yes?

I'll head home on my own starting today.

Ms. Na Bo-bae.

Wait!

What are you doing? Someone might see us.

-We said we'd only meet to charge you. -Let's go home together.

It's not safe to be alone now.

Did you forget?

I'm the most dangerous person.

And I'm uncomfortable being around you all the time now.

All right, everyone. Let's see what TS Resort has to say.

There's a car coming!

Is that Ms. Na? Hey! Over here!

She's in there!

Hey, these TS guys are hitting me!

They're hitting me!

That hurts!

Are you okay?

Are they reporters? They don't look like Ji Eun-ho's fans.

They're clickbait YouTubers.

They somehow found out that Ms. Na works at the resort.

They keep showing up.

YouTubers?

Are you saying they're all here to catch Ms. Na on camera?

She said she'd go home alone today.

I saw her leave through the back door.

Don't worry, I assigned her a bodyguard.

Oh, really?

For now,

tighten security at the resort.

Report them all for obstruction of business.

Don't let them lay a finger on Ms. Na.

Yes, sir.

15 NEW MESSAGES FROM SEO-JEONG

9 NEW MESSAGES FROM PRECIOUS

Bo-bae, why aren't you picking up?

We're always on your side, okay?

Na Bo-bae, aren't you going to reply?

Are you okay?

Call me as soon as you see this.

What am I supposed to tell Ji-hye and Yong-gi?

JU-HEE

Bo-bae, are you okay?

This is about you, right? This is awful.

I know you're laughing while sending crying emojis.

THE WOMAN JI EUN-HO PROPOSED TO IS A DRAMA WRITER

She's only written a one-act.

-Na Bo-who? -A writer? Yeah, right.

-Anybody's a writer now. -She wrote Eun-ho's debut?

She got him then.

-Wistful Youth? -Focus on your writing.

Failed as a writer, chased an actor.

She's not even that pretty. What's with her hair?

-Her hair's a mess. -Crazy.

Unbelievable.

She doesn't know her place.

Like they know anything.

Maybe I should just sue them all.

It's not true. Why can't I say so?

Bo-bae…

What about Ms. Na's reputation?

This is on me. I should explain.

Type "Ji Eun-ho" into the search bar,

and "Na Bo-bae" comes up beside it.

You look like some idiot who's lost his head over a woman.

She's getting it worse than I am.

Right now, all over social media and the news--

Exactly!

You're a celebrity, Eun-ho.

The moment you try to explain this rumor,

you add fuel to a fire that could've died down on its own.

Then what's going to happen to her?

The best thing you can do is say nothing.

The fastest way for this to blow over is to keep your mouth shut.

Find out who started the rumor about Ms. Na and Ji Eun-ho.

Sorry?

We need to put this rumor to rest.

One's the face of TS Resort, and the other…

is my secretary.

Sir, is this really the time for that?

The TS Hotel embezzlement case…

It's time to expose it.

The situation has changed.

When the situation changes, so does the plan.

Hello.

-Hello. -Good to see you.

Thank you for coming all this way.

-Pleasure. -Yes.

Mr. Yoon.

We've done well for the past 15 years.

Right?

Yes. We have.

You may feel a little uneasy

since it looks like you're taking the fall alone,

but you've benefited from it all these years too.

Just do a little time…

and I'll make sure your daughter is set for life.

Yes.

Yes, sir.

Oh man.

I can't wait to see the look on Ho-rang's face.

I wonder how he'll react when the article comes out.

Why did you ask us to come here?

I'd like to know too.

Why would you need

a failing newspaper publisher and a TV broadcaster?

Come on. Don't be so modest.

You two have the country's press and media in the palm of your hand.

Actually, our son is getting ready to take over TS Group.

Director Choi Do-yoon?

Yes.

If you two help us out this time,

I'll return the favor when you're in a bind.

Sir.

Sir.

We have a problem.

-He's coming out! -There he is!

-A few words about Mr. Baek Ho-rang? -Any comment on Mr. Baek?

Do you have anything to say about Mr. Baek?

As a member of the family,

I take full responsibility for all the controversies surrounding him.

I'd like to apologize to the public on his behalf.

DOSEONG DAILY "TS HOTEL EXECUTIVE COMES CLEAN"

BAEK HO-RANG BETRAYS FAMILY, EMBEZZLES 8 BILLION WON

I almost fainted when I read the article.

My nephew…

My own nephew!

Embezzling money from TS Hotel just to screw Do-yoon and me over?

I can't believe it. It's terrible!

The media is in a frenzy.

It's all over social media and YouTube.

There's even a petition.

This doesn't look like it'll blow over anytime soon.

And the stock's tanked.

Is this true, Mr. Baek?

Say something, will you?

Senior Managing Director Baek.

Are you out of your mind?

It's true I had a meal with Vice President Yoon Dong-seok.

And it's true we talked about the embezzlement case.

Look at him.

That's why you can't trust anyone, not even your own flesh and blood.

That bastard.

He thought he could walk all over TS Group--

Quiet.

And?

He met me as a whistleblower in the TS Hotel embezzlement case.

He had evidence.

Senior Managing Director Baek!

Sit down.

Listen, Yoon Dong-seok already confessed to everything.

I heard he gave you the ledgers on a regular basis.

Where did you hide them? Where are the ledgers?

I can submit the evidence right now.

-Even to the media. -Some evidence would be nice.

If you're innocent, prove it.

Chairwoman, let's trust Ho-rang and wait.

He says he's got evidence and all.

I was just starting to think you had potential.

If you don't fix this,

I'll drop you without a second thought.

You know that, right?

Anyone can be replaced.

Maybe you should talk to Seol-hee.

I'll head down first.

I guess you got in touch with my grandmother.

Yes.

I actually know Yoon Dong-seok.

I met him a few times with Do-yoon.

I know what they often talked about.

I also know Yoon Dong-seok's weaknesses.

And

I know that Yoon Dong-seok is framing you.

You'll be my witness?

Not just a witness.

I can use Hanlim's influence to help you.

I'm saying I have the card to turn this around.

And I have the means to get the message out.

I assume you're not offering to do it for free.

There has to be a catch.

Of course.

You know I want something from you.

I'll save

both TS and you.

Wouldn't marrying me be

a pretty good deal?

Baek Ho-rang, senior managing director of TS Resort,

is under suspicion of embezzling funds from TS Hotel.

Backlash against Mr. Baek is growing as new mistreatment allegations emerge.

A close confidant claims

Mr. Baek has long suffered from a serious mental illness.

The crisis has ignited debate over the company's leadership.

-What is this? -Similar concerns over its successor…

Guys, I'm on my way to meet that notorious writer.

Check out this fancy neighborhood. How much do you have to make to live here?

Look at these houses.

Here we are, guys.

All right, I'm ringing the bell.

RUBBER GLOVE

Who is it?

Ms. Na Bo-bae? Delivery.

I need your signature.

A delivery?

Guys, this is it. We're about to meet that troublemaker.

I think she's coming out. Told you I'd get to the bottom of this.

-Excuse me. -Yes?

I live right across the street.

You said delivery. Where's the package?

Mind your own business. Just move along.

-I told you, I live across the street. -So?

Heard there's a burglar around here. Was it you?

A burglar? I'm a reporter! See this camera?

A reporter? Which outlet?

What's it to you?

Why are you covering your face?

You live in a fancy area.

Are you famous or--

You tried to hit me with that camera. You're the burglar.

You bastard! I'm gonna call the cops!

Call the cops? Think you can?

A fake courier calling the cops after filming and assaulting someone?

-Be my guest. -That hurts!

Damn it.

Let me go! You're breaking my arm!

You're gonna break it! Damn it!

Let go, you bastard! This is expensive!

Eun-ho.

How did you know I was here?

I was waiting next door.

I heard what that guy said.

Oh.

I'm sorry I lied to you.

No, I'm sorry for putting you through this.

Even after I got rejected.

I like you, Bo-bae.

The last three years…

I only got through it because of you.

There wasn't a single day you didn't help me, Eun-ho.

You always said you were my fan

and wanted to keep reading my scripts.

That's how I got this far.

Why do I have a bad feeling?

But…

I found someone who feels like fate.

And…

it's not you.

I'm sorry.

That's just cruel.

I'm sorry, Eun-ho.

How's Mr. Fate doing?

I saw the news. Looks like it's a real mess.

Oh.

I don't really know.

It's got nothing to do with me.

Then why do you look like that?

Lighten up.

Huh?

Right.

Try not to worry too much.

I don't know Mr. Baek that well,

but he's not the type to embezzle or mistreat people.

You'd know better than I do.

I'll get going.

Don't open the door to strangers.

Okay.

Bo-bae.

You rejected me, but I'm still your number one fan.

I'll keep rooting for you.

I'm the male lead in your drama.

Seriously…

And

don't let the rumors about us bother you.

Okay. I won't.

No dating. Just write. Your number one fan's waiting.

Dating? I'm not dating.

Go on. Go act.

I'm your fan too.

Oh, thank you.

I'm off. Don't come out.

You're surprisingly bold.

I didn't expect you to bring me to a suite.

This is the most secure place.

And I think I'm starting to see what kind of person you are.

What kind of person am I?

Someone

like me.

Spot on.

I like that answer.

So are you attracted to me now?

Back in Jeju,

you said that having many plans meant I wasn't certain.

You're right. I'm uncertain and anxious.

Anxious to hide my weaknesses perfectly.

Then…

Even so,

I'll have to decline your offer.

I've lived with anxiety and doubt my whole life,

so I tend to stay calm in situations like this.

You brought me all the way here just to tell me that?

Yes.

I'm turning you down once and for all.

If someone saw this,

I figured you'd be embarrassed.

You never know.

Someone could be secretly recording this

and editing it

to suit their agenda.

I didn't expect Director Han Seol-hee to play dirty.

No wonder she's always with Choi Do-yoon.

Did she admit to making up the rumors about Mr. Ji Eun-ho?

She didn't have to. Her face said it all.

Where are the secretaries?

They rushed back to the office.

Oh, I should call Ms. Na too.

No, don't call her.

Sorry? But surely…

I said don't call her.

Yes, sir.

Wow, it's Ji Eun-ho!

Hello.

I'm Kang Du-ri, director of The Voice of the Night.

Yes, I'm okay.

There isn't any reason not to be.

I'm grateful I was given the chance to make such a fun movie.

Thank you all for coming today.

If I can just say something real quick, unrelated to the movie…

The woman in the video that's been going around

is indeed a drama writer.

What's he doing?

But there are stories going around that aren't true.

That I proposed to her

or that she used me.

Those are completely untrue.

She's simply someone who works hard at writing her scripts.

She's someone I deeply respect.

I've never had feelings for her beyond that.

Not once.

That I proposed to her

or that she used me.

-You said not to worry. -Those are completely untrue.

Liar.

She's simply someone who works hard…

-What a guy. -…at writing her scripts.

She's someone I deeply respect.

I've never had feelings for her beyond that.

Not once.

That's a relief.

-I understand. -That's right.

The reports going around aren't true.

They are completely false.

I'll take care of it right away. Yes.

Do we have a venue for the press conference?

Yes.

Here it is.

-Thanks. -This is TS Resort.

The reports are completely false.

12:11 A.M.

Don't you…

need to charge?

Oh.

It's late,

so I was just charging from here, 1% at a time.

You could've asked me.

Charging you is part of our contract.

It'll finally be over tomorrow.

The embezzlement case.

We're holding a press conference.

Right.

That's good.

But a press conference means you'll be surrounded by cameras.

It's the quickest and easiest way.

If I take my meds and stay calm,

I think I'll manage.

But what if you start panicking again?

You can't risk that in front of the cameras.

Yeah, I can't.

But it's okay.

I'm sure I'll be fine.

I have to do a good job.

That's the only way I can take over TS.

But why go that far?

Because of my parents.

I know what kind of company

my parents wanted TS to be.

I'm the only one who can do it.

It's something I have to see through.

To do so,

I'll have to overcome…

the cameras and the flashes.

Why are you so afraid of cameras?

I'm not sure.

To be more precise…

I'm afraid

of people's eyes

on me.

He's here!

It's Ho-rang!

-It's Ho-rang. -Ho-rang!

Ho-rang!

Ho-rang!

Look this way, Ho-rang!

Look here, Ho-rang!

Just one interview!

Ho-rang! Just one interview!

Ho-rang!

Ho-rang, don't you feel bad for your parents?

I told you last time.

When my parents died in an accident because of me…

How was it your fault?

An accident is just an accident.

It happened because they were coming to see me.

Of course they were. They're your parents.

That's what parents do. It's love.

The people who shoved cameras in your face were in the wrong.

Why should you feel bad? How is it your fault?

Well…

I guess you're right.

Look at me.

I know

what kind of person Baek Ho-rang is.

On the outside, the perfect senior managing director,

always sticking to the plan.

But underneath,

full of worries,

always anxious,

always taking care of other people before himself…

That's how kind you are.

Professor Jang told me this.

Sometimes in life,

even a strange little straw

can save a life.

Just one straw.

So all you need is one.

Just one person.

Someone who sees you for who you are.

You're right.

Just one…

Just one person is enough.

So don't worry about anyone else.

Just imagine all the eyes behind the cameras are mine.

Looking at you

like this.

Well…

I meant every word I said,

but it was only out of human kindness.

You know, out of compassion.

And because of our contract.

I understand.

But still,

if you came with me tomorrow…

I think I'd do better.

We're not exactly in a position

to attend an official event together.

You'll do fine.

Just remember what I told you.

Okay.

I'll get going now.

Stay strong, Na Bo-bae.

Don't feel sorry for him.

Stop thinking about it.

SEO-JEONG

Hey, Na Bo-bae.

-Did you order already? -Yeah.

Let me pour you a drink.

Oh dear.

Hey, at least Eun-ho's loyal, huh?

He dropped it live at the premiere.

He went all in defending you.

Yeah, he did.

Then why the long face? The rumor's all cleared up.

What long face? I'm in a good mood. Cheers.

You sure about that?

Don't tell me it's because of Baek Ho-rang.

-Because of his embezzlement? -Hey.

You really think he embezzled money? He has no reason to.

Look at you.

What are you, his lawyer?

You like Baek Ho-rang, don't you?

What?

What…

What are you talking about? Why would I…

That overreaction says it all.

Who are you trying to fool?

I had a feeling ever since Jeju.

I'm Cho Seo-jeong. Relationship expert.

Your story bag.

I said I don't like him.

We'll be done once the contract's over anyway.

He'll just keep getting hurt if he's with me.

Look at you.

There you go, digging yourself into a hole again.

Look, even after the contract's over,

you can still see each other.

And him getting hurt?

Your powers don't even work on him.

Maybe not directly,

but he got hurt because of me at the airport.

He probably already knows about my powers.

Did you ask him?

About what?

You did the same thing to me in high school.

Move.

Cho Seo-jeong…

Don't let those losers get you down.

You saw it too.

I hurt his hand, and--

Oh please, he barely got hurt.

He was being dramatic.

Why does that even matter?

I'm your friend.

I'll always be on your side.

That's all that matters.

What if I hadn't put on rubber gloves that day?

You would've been like,

"Cho Seo-jeong's just like everyone else."

You would've run away from me.

No, that's different from this.

You keep doing it.

I'm seeing a pattern here.

That's your problem, damn it!

I'm sorry.

That's your problem.

You're always hung up on that electricity thing.

You get scared and run away.

Wouldn't you do the same?

Do you know how hard it is to live like this?

No, I don't.

But I do know one thing.

You're just a coward putting on a tough front.

Like the rumors with Ji Eun-ho.

You just let everyone witch-hunt you.

If I were you, I'd make a statement or sue them.

How can you just sit there and take it?

If it weren't for Ji Eun-ho,

you'd be finished, Bo-bae.

-Stop already. -Stop what?

Is there anyone else who tells you this?

No, there isn't.

I said stop already!

Truth hurts, huh? You're mad 'cause I'm right.

How old are you? Act your age.

Right back at you!

Jeez.

So?

You gonna get all scared and run away again?

Sir, are you sure you'll be okay?

I thought so. You don't look well.

I'm fine.

It's Senior Managing Director Baek.

Why did you embezzle the money?

BAEK HO-RANG EMERGENCY PRESS CONFERENCE

-Please move aside. -Please sit down.

Take a seat.

So don't worry about anyone else.

Just imagine all the eyes behind the cameras are mine.

Looking at you

like this.

I'd like to make a statement

regarding the recent embezzlement case at TS Hotel.

I have never embezzled a single cent from TS Hotel.

I'll fully cooperate with the police

to ensure the real culprit

is brought to justice.

Move out of the way.

I can't see!

I'm Yoon Dong-seok, the one who named Mr. Baek Ho-rang

as an accomplice.

My real accomplice…

is Assemblyman Choi Tae-sik.

I'm sorry.

What's that crazy bastard saying?

That crazy bastard.

Where's Choi Do-yoon?

He said he took care of it!

We paid off Doseong Daily and JBS. What the hell's going on?

Call them! Now!

Damn it.

I'm sorry.

Gyeong-jin?

Baek Gyeong-jin!

Hey, call 911!

Wake up, Gyeong-jin. Baek Gyeong-jin!

Are you saying

you'll let TS Hotel publish false articles?

It might be better that way.

Once they let their guard down,

we can do

what we have to do.

What the hell? Who are you?

Let go!

Baek…

Mr. Baek.

What is going on?

Mr. Yoon.

Did you really think I wouldn't know?

Sorry?

You thought you could frame me with a fake ledger.

I'm not that sloppy.

Fake? This is real.

I already have ten years of slush fund transfer records.

Let me guess.

My aunt and uncle promised

you'd be set for life if you did some time?

Or was it Choi Do-yoon?

It's just--

Do you trust them?

Sorry?

I know you did it for your wife and daughter.

But

is this really

what's best for your family?

Then what should I do?

I did embezzle the money with them.

There's no way out.

Just

do what you have to do.

Pay for your crimes and tell the truth.

Just report Choi Tae-sik first.

I'll take care of the rest.

Mr. Yoon Dong-seok will cooperate with the police in good faith.

I already have evidence of the real embezzlement.

I turned it all over to the police yesterday.

Actor Ji Eun-ho, who was the victim of malicious rumors,

will continue to be

the face of TS Resort.

Lastly…

to Director Han Seol-hee of Hanlim Advertising Company,

whose name has been linked to mine since I was named an accomplice,

I'd like to officially apologize.

For dragging her into false reports that we were getting married…

I sincerely apologize.

What is your relationship with Ms. Han?

Ms. Na Bo-bae!

You scared me.

Oh, I'm sorry.

How did you…

How did you get here so fast?

There's a shortcut.

But

why did you run away?

I just…

When did I run away? I was just… running.

You ran away when you saw me.

Me? When?

You've been running away…

ever since Jeju.

Ms. Na.

Do you really think…

I don't know anything about you?

What?

Ever since you moved into my house,

we've had blackouts and broken appliances.

And you'd put on rubber gloves for no reason.

You even called me a human rubber glove.

All this time…

you knew?

I thought it was strange.

But

you didn't seem to want to talk about it,

so I didn't ask.

And

after Jeju…

none of that

mattered

anymore.

Because I like you.

I like you,

Ms. Na Bo-bae.

The electricity, the contract, whatever.

None of it matters.

I just…

like you.

Na Bo-bae is…

just Na Bo-bae.

So

even if I get hurt because of you,

I don't care.
