Hotel King

[CEO Ah Mo Ne]

Unfortunately…

…the hotel isn’t fine. It’s because of you, Ms. Chairman.

I’m very busy.

Please get out of my way.

[My right-hand man]

[EP13 Hotel King]

It’s time to go to the meeting.

Cha Su Wan.

Is it really true that I got released by lack of evidence?

Didn’t the General Manager owe the Vice-Chairman…

…what I mean to say is if he asked a favor for me…

Ciel’s legal department took care of your matter.

Okay. Let’s go.

Don’t think that...

...I trust you without any doubt.

I trust you for 70 or 80 percent only.

If you turn your back on me again for your sister...

...it’ll make me so pitiful.

It will never happen. You'll see.

Ah!

By the way,

You heard about CEO Kim of Bordo International, right?

Yes. I heard that he is hospitalized, because of a suicide attempt.

I just wanted to have better wines in our hotel...

...so I changed the supplier…

…and this old man made a big deal of it.

I think I’ll be in trouble because of it.

What should I do?

I’ll take care of the matter.

Okay, that’s my boy.

You should do me a favor to show I can trust you again.

Jaden.

Yes.

Mo Ne will be the one...

...who burdens the hotel with this matter.

Do you want to run away?

I’m the Chairman of Ciel, Ah Mo Ne.

I was preparing myself before I go in there…

If you aren’t trying to escape from here...

...face them now, Ms. Chairman.

You are far from increasing sales, and you ruined Ciel’s reputation.

If you keep ruining Ciel like this...

...three month trial term is meaningless.

First of all...

...I’d like to apologize to you that I made trouble for the hotel.

I admit that it’s my mistake to sign the contract carelessly, but…

…I’d like to hear from the Vice-Chairman...

...who designed this event from the beginning.

I’ve had this in the making...

...since I worked with your father…

…and I couldn’t know that this kind of trouble would occur.

This is all my fault.

From now on, as the Chairman asked me…

…I’ll stay put in my seat…

…like a tree.

Why didn’t you listen to her earlier, Mr. Vice-Chairman?

When there’s an important decision to be made…

…do executives go to the Chairman’s office first?

Concerning this matter…

…the executives including myself, are responsible…

…because we didn’t assist her properly and let her be a puppet.

And there’s one more person…

...who hasn’t taken care of the scandal with the Chairman yet.

The General Manager.

Director Baek. I’ll explain about that…

The scandal?

It’s absurd.

I just gave her a lesson about the hotel...

...since her term is only two more months.

With all due respect...

...we shouldn’t focus on whom to blame for this matter but…

…I’d like to hear from the chairman…

…how to recover declined sales and ruined reputation of the hotel.

That’s…

Your lesson must not have been very good.

I’ll discuss with the Chairman about it...

...and I’ll report it at the next week’s meeting.

It won’t be easy…

…since she lacks basics of the hotel.

Here. Let’s drink one each.

Thank you.

I said I don’t drink this.

Don’t drink it if you don’t want to.

Let me just have it in front of me.

Protect the chairman well from now on.

Don’t let her get hurt.

By the way…

…isn’t our chairman so dynamic?

She even went to jail this time.

Don’t say that.

She got released due to lack of evidence.

We should have reported to her about the event...

...when we were suspicious about it.

She went on a business trip to China. We couldn’t reach her anyways.

That’s the issue here.

- So nasty. - Business trip to China?

No. No.

Honeymoon?

Yes. Yes.

Stop it. Don’t make a rumor out of it.

Why do you always blame me for rumors, Mr. Go?

The chairman and General Manager…

…went on a business trip and unreachable at the same time…

…and showed up to the hotel at the same time…

…so their scandal is true.

Oh my God. Really?

Then did you see them go to trip together, Manager Jang?

I didn’t see it with my eyes, but…

…Miss Da Jung...

...you know that there’s North Pole above Alaska.

Have you been to North Pole?

- Have you touched North Pole? - No.

And now abideth faith, hope, charity but the greatest of these is charity.

-Have you touched charity? -No.

Have you touched it with your hands? Have you been there?

Some things you believe in, even though you haven't seen them.

Let’s not make a gossip about it at least between us.

The team leaders are busy keeping the scandal out of the news.

Thank you, Mr. Sun.

Let me ask you a favor.

Gossiping about this will lead us to ruin our own reputation eventually…

…so please be mindful this matter for a while.

Yes, team leader.

Ha!

I was surprised at you…

…that you were on my side today.

You seemed in danger of getting kicked out of your chair for real today…

…so I had to save you.

I appreciate that very much.

I didn’t know that you’re so close to each other like this.

I’d like to talk to you.

I’m sorry.

I have a meeting with the vice-chairman.

Mr. General Manager.

What kind of job in Ciel can be prior to the chairman’s need?

Mr. General Manger.

You’re right.

The chairman seems to have an urgent matter with you.

Go talk to her first.

Okay.

You used the stick with the chairman last time…

…and you seem to have given her a carrot today, right?

It isn’t a carrot...

...but water.

Water?

Give a sip of water to a person, who is dying with thirst...

...and you won’t be soon forgotten.

You gave me the water in this way too.

You’re incredible.

Thank you.

Are you happy to have your pet back?

Whose side are you on...

...Director Baek?

I have an issue with your current attitude.

Did I ever tell you that I’m on your side?

Jesus…

You get angry often these days. Would you like to have a tranquilizer?

Ah! Dr. Yoon isn’t here anymore...

...so you won’t be able to get a prescription for it.

Smile.

It’s too early to make that look.

Darn it.

What do you want to tell me, Ms. Chairman?

You can talk to me comfortably now.

I don’t understand.

It’s you, who saved me.

If you got threatened by the vice-chairman because of me…

Apologize to the vice-chairman.

- Cha Jae Wan. - And...

...thank him for saving you.

If the vice-chairman didn’t stop it…

…the world would be full with malicious rumors of Ciel.

You know that it’s him...

...who set this up from the beginning.

It’s you who signed the contract in person.

Why are you doing this to me?

If you do this...

...you'll be alone.

No. I’m back to where I’m supposed to be.

Unlike you…

…I got here on my own.

I can’t fall down with you…

…after two months.

So...

...stop complaining to me.

There must be a reason why you’re doing this.

I told you that…

…I’m not going anywhere.

I’ll…

…wait for you right here.

It’s up to you.

I’m sorry. I didn’t hear it on purpose.

I came to say hello and check if she’s alright…

…and I heard your conversation accidentally.

Go ahead then.

Did you sell yourself to the vice-chairman to save Ah Mo Ne?

Sacrificing yourself for her?

Fix your habit of talking about other's motive with wild guesses.

It doesn’t look good.

You’re not holding the sword right, Cha Jae Wan.

The blade of a sword is on your side.

What is the end you’re aiming for?

Tell me, so I can help you.

Da Bae.

The flowers are in full bloom in the backyard.

Your mom asked me to go to pick herbs earlier...

...but she’s in the backyard...

I have a flower in full bloom here too.

You’re too greedy, Miss.

This flower is for your mother.

Fine. I'm satisfied with this.

Jae Wan.

Why are you here without any notice?

Dad. Everyone knows that you sponsored him now…

…so can we meet comfortably now?

You can. Of course.

Mom will come back soon.

Go change your clothes and come out, dad.

General Manager can have a dinner with us today.

I’d like to have a home-cooked meal suddenly.

Are you okay with this?

Yes, of course.

Join us anytime.

Then…

…do you want me to prepare...

...the vice-chairman’s birthday party at Hae Mil restaurant?

I just need you to give me a list of dad’s friends.

Jae Wan!

I’d like to tell you something…

…why don’t you go to my room with me?

Yes.

If you hate me to talk to Miss Dae Bae...

...I’ll be more careful next time.

No. Not at all.

I’m just worried that...

...she may be wrong for you, since she is so immature still.

She’ll act like a child around you…

…so don’t let her do it.

Okay.

By the way…

…the thing you found from the boat…

…is this all?

Since he hid the thing in such a difficult way…

…it’s strange that...

...he didn’t even leave Mo Ne a letter.

It’s because he wasn’t alright then.

Yes. He wasn’t alright.

This is Ciel.

Around this area...

...there’ll be a gallery, theater, concert hall, and theme part.

Doesn’t it make you smell people already?

This is the place my father dreamed of.

I’ll establish it for sure, once I become a real chairman.

What a big dream.

We can do it together.

You, me and my father.

I can see that you remember this.

Yes.

Look.

In the land that surrounds Ciel…

…I’ll establish a casino.

Huh?

Ah Sung Won…

…when he was alive…

…he was against it badly.

Now, Jae Wan…

…can you see it?

Here, here and there.

Jae Wan.

This this is all money.

Huh?

This is the Lee Jung Ku’s world.

Yes.

Ciel will become yours soon, Mr. Vice-chairman.

So… so what happened to the guest?

Eventually, he ran out from the hotel in his underwear.

- Oh my God. - Oh wow.

I thought you’re only a gentleman…

…but now I can see that you’re funny, too.

Do you have a girlfriend?

Unfortunately, not yet.

Don’t worry.

Even if you don’t worry about him...

...there are so many women who line up for him.

He’s right, mom.

My friends who study a hotel business, not only admire him...

...but fancy him so much.

I’m aware of it.

Visit us more often.

I’m honored.

Hey, hey, hey.

You two.

If you’re interested in the General Manager only, then…

…I’ll be disappointed!

What is the end you’re aiming for?

Destruction of...

...my father.

Okay. See you tomorrow.

[Your email is sent successfully.]

This is all money.

This is the Lee Jung Ku’s world.

I’ll bring him down to the bottom, and then I’ll go back to you,

Mo Ne.

[Cha Jae Wan! You’re so mean!]

[Fine.]

[I’ll pretend that I know nothing about you, as you wish.]

[Don’t get hurt too much.]

[And just make sure to come back to me.]

A robot he gave to Jun...

...is very strong...

...so Jun doesn’t have to be scared of anything…

…what about you?

Hmm.

I’ve lived comfortably with Cha Jae Wan’s love.

I’m sorry to say this, but he likes me more than you now.

He did tell me that…

…he likes me more.

I won’t let Ciel get away with this.

I don’t know what this is about, but this is clearly a threat.

I’ll report you to the police, if you call again.

You’ve been answering your phone like this for a while.

It’s nothing.

You don’t need to take this.

Don’t answer the call from unknown number from now on.

What is this?

Why are there so many things that I don’t know?

Why don’t you take care of the matters you know first?

Under the new slogan of Commercialization, Standardization...

...and Gentrification…

…there’ll be differential rates of pay upon performance rating…

…extra monthly tests of Chinese, English, and a third language…

…and peer assessment rating and so on.

These are all effective immediately.

Excuse me.

What is peer assessment rating system?

Other than your supervisor’s assessment, your colleagues will...

... assess your performances and extra marks will be given...

...to who reports any failure of duty by other colleague.

If you apply this system…

…we can’t trust our colleagues next to us eventually.

An hotelier is supposed to move a guest’s mind, but…

…we won’t be able to do so...

...if we are busy watching our backs.

Please reconsider it.

I agree with Mr. Sun Woo Hyun.

If you regress because of a person who you work with…

…then that person isn’t your colleague.

With all due respect, Mr. General Manager…

…if you say it flat like this…

You can apply for voluntary retirement a week from today.

If you aren’t confident to comply with the new system, resign voluntarily.

Wow, he’s tough.

I’m the chairman, and I oppose you, too.

You can support productivity without promoting a lack of trust...

…and that’s what the family supposed to do.

It’s my authority to set a duty policy as the General Manager.

And interrupting us without any notice is exceeding your authority.

Escort her out of here, Cha Su Wan.

It’s the chairman’s authority to lead the General Manger to the right way.

If you were one of the staff here…

…you’d receive the lowest mark.

You’re rude. Mr. General Manager.

If you want to lead me, learn the hotel business first.

So...

...are you insisting on implementing the new system…

...against me?

I’m sorry to say this, but…

…you can’t oppose me.

You can’t be my opponent.

Wow. I thought he’d soften up a little after he dated her…

…but he returns back to a hotel monster…

…and he has the devil’s horns now.

This definitely is a lover's quarrel.

The chairman seems to be hurt.

He did too much to her in front of the staff.

That’s why fast Woo Hyun followed her.

So, only you’re left here to get hurt by him.

If the new system will be applied, your supervisor, English monster…

…will give you zero, zero, zero, zero and zero.

Then, are you any better than him, Manager Jang?

Yes, I am.

We’re too close for comfort.

Hey, help me.

Do you want me to spread a rumor about you that you’re a pervert?

Why are you doing this to me?

Ah, Mr. General Manager!

Ms. Chairman!

Former chairman Ah is alive!

What a scary women you are!

Ms. Chairman.

Are you alright?

What?

Are you ignoring me too?

I’m the chairman of Ciel…

…Ah Mo Ne.

You know it well.

The General Manager didn’t mean it.

He must have a reason.

I know that you don’t trust him either.

I’m really alright.

The General Manager spoke the truth.

I’m fine, Sun Woo Hyun.

You don’t have to comfort me.

You can’t compare this place with there.

There were shopping malls, casinos, and hotels…

…it was spectacular to me, so I was lost.

I couldn’t speak English and I wasn’t able to do anything.

And I accidentally started to work in the hotel.

Yes. I remember the moment too.

I lived in the States more than 20 years…

…but I was so surprised, when I went to Las Vegas.

At the time, I didn’t know anything...

...and told everyone that, "back off all of you, I’m the best."

Sometimes…

…I miss those times.

This isn’t the situation we're concerned about...

...language test or peer assessment…

…we are concerned about him, right?

Yes.

I thought he’s back to normal, but…

…he's too far gone.

I don’t think that I called you.

I came to ask you a question.

The place you went…

…was near the vice-chairman?

Where does your reckless confidence come from?

I’ve thought about this for a long time, but…

…I couldn’t come up with any other idea.

Why are you trying to be...

...an enemy of the chairman suddenly?

I don’t have...

...time to satisfy your curiosity.

I won't follow the unofficial job you gave to me.

You must have a good reason to act like this.

The chairman seems to know what that is, but…

…she got hurt still.

Regardless of what your reason is...

...you shouldn’t hurt your loved one…

Do you know...

...which part of you I like the most?

You don’t live in the reality, but follow the dream only…

…it’s your absurd ideal.

The deceased chairman Ah was same as you.

But...

...if I fire you one day…

…then it will be for the same thing that I like about you.

The chairman Ah didn’t live in reality…

…he tried to overcome it.

Ms. Chairman.

I think you’d better get off work now.

What are you talking about?

Only think I’ve done since I came to work today…

...is having a quarrel with the General Manager.

What’s going on?

Ah Mo Ne! Come out now!

Come out!

Let us live!

I'll take you home. Let's go.

Can’t you hear that the people are looking for me?

Are you going to make me look irresponsible again, Cha Sun Wan?

Come out!

Mr. General Manager, this is Cha Su Wan.

[Ciel hotel oppresses small businesses.]

Go away! Go away!

[The chairman Ah Mo Ne must resign!]

You’re responsible for the suicide attempt!

Accept responsibility! Accept responsibility!

CL needs to disappear.

CL needs to disappear! CL needs to disappear!

Ah Mo Ne!

-Apologize to us! Apologize to us! -What’s going on?

I’m the chairman of Ciel, Ah Mo Ne.

Come and save me right now.

It hurts so much.

You should do me a favor to make me trust you again.

Jaden.

Take care of this without me.

Did you do this, Mr. General Manager?

I don’t know about this.

Tell her as is.

That’s your job to do.

- Have you found out who did it? - Yes.

It’s the vice-chairman, right?

The vice-chairman did it intentionally to…

It’s the vice-chairman who ordered it, but…

…it’s someone else who manipulated the papers...

...to make you responsible for this matter.

It must be someone who works for the vice-chairman.

I won’t forgive them.

What’s wrong with you?

You know this person.

- He is… - It’s okay.

I don’t want to hear it.

- Leave now. - Ms. Chairman.

Don’t say anything.

If you do, I’ll fire you.

Leave now.

You’re home.

What’s going on?

I have an appetite...

...and I want to eat the steak you made me before.

You’re still good at it, right?

I don’t remember it.

It would be hard for you to do it alone.

You want to run to the next door so badly.

I’ll stop you from doing it.

I’d buy some flowers to decorate the table.

Then, it would look much better.

Would you like to listen to music?

Yes. I think we should.

As you wish.

Jae Wan, do you still like…

Jae Wan.

It’s almost done. Wait for a bit.

Ah…

I’m sorry.

Your finger.

It’s okay.

I just need to put a bandage on it.

Wait here.

Enough.

I can’t take seeing you like this anymore.

Cha Jae Wan. You’re sorry, right?

You’re dying to say sorry to me.

Then, come to me now and give me an excuse.

If you don’t come here in 30 seconds...

...I’ll go to you and upset you.

I’m not joking.

When I’m upset…

[To My right-handed man] [Message Empty]

I’m sorry, Ms. Chairman.

Don't be, I'm not expecting anyone.

I’d like to tell you something.

[Pull an oar, when there’s no wind.]

I’m sure this is my father’s writing.

Thank you.

It must be difficult for you to have it.

By the way, why didn’t you tell me you found it earlier?

Because I worried that you might be disappointed.

Painter Kim’s story, this writing and the painting…

…I thought that all of these are pointing the boat in Mo Ne’s garden…

…I was wrong.

The string, the painting...

...and the boat…?

I didn’t know when I should tell you about this, but…

…I thought that this may cheer you up on the day like this.

A picture puzzle.

You aren’t wrong about this.

I’m sure that he hid something in the boat.

There was nothing.

No. I’m sure there is.

It’s one of my father’s specialties.

When I was young...

...he often hid gifts he'd gotten me.

I even cried sometimes, when I couldn’t find them.

Did he?

He’d make sure I could find it when I see the painting.

I was so stupid.

You’d break your nails.

There must be something.

I’m sure that there’s something.

I’ll do it.

I’ll find it out for sure. I’ll take it all the way apart...

…so don’t worry about it.

I found the place already. There’s nothing…

It was here.

Why did I miss it?

You’re right. Something was in there.

Someone got here first…

…who was it?

Did you find it?

No.

You know something, right?

When does…

…this play end?

Not before more bruises and wounds.

Don’t take too long.

If you do, the young chairman will get tired of it.

I’ve done it before, waiting for you and…

…it doesn’t feel good.

I see who’s behind me.

Hello, Ms. Chairman.

I’d like to ask you something.

- Ask me at the hotel. - No, now.

She seems serious.

I’ll leave you to talk.

Thank you for dinner, Jae Wan.

Unless there’s a serious issue in the hotel…

…I don’t want you to disturb my private time.

CEO Song Chae Kyung.

I’d like to ask you a favor…

…please leave us alone.

The chairman is asking me a favor…

…I got to do it.

It doesn’t work today.

Let’s go in and talk.

Do it here.

Mo Ne’s garden… the boat…

Don’t you have anything to tell me about these?

No.

Are you sure that…

…you didn’t find anything in there?

What is the answer you want to hear from me?

I’ll tell you that.

Cha Jae Wan…

…won’t break Ah Mo Ne’s trust…

…regardless whatever happens.

I’d...

...never do it.

I’d never do it.

Good.

I’m good now.

I think you don’t know, but…

…this trust…

…you made it up alone…

…regardless of my feelings.

I’m General Manger of Ciel, Cha Jae Wan.

I’ve got Loman Lee’s mail.

I also want to meet and negotiate with you.

Thank you.

See you tomorrow at the airport.

You know who threatened me...

...Mr. General Manager?

I don't know.

Jae Wan hasn’t changed much.

In the past...

...he accomplished whatever he aimed to do…

…at any cost.

That’s right.

I heard that my father scouted the general manager…

Scouted?

Cha Jae Wan was adopted when he was seven years old.

He has scars all over his body.

Lee Jung Ku was the one who beat Cha Jae Wan.

Lee Jung Ku has sponsoring Cha Jae Wan for a long time.

This is so complicated.

This trust…

…you made it up alone…

…regardless of my feelings.

No way.

[Ah Mo Ne]

[Ah Mo Ne]

47…

48…

49…

50…

51…

52…

You took exactly fifty two seconds.

Isn’t that a little fast to save a woman…

53…

…you hate from head to toe?

54…

55…

87…

88…

89…

90…

91…

92…

You…

...are there, right?

But...

...I can’t open the door, because I’m scared…

…that you may not there.

I’m scared...

...that you won’t really come.

She… doesn’t trust me anymore.

Thank you for coming.

I’m Ciel’s General Manager, Cha Jae Wan.

I’m Loman.

Loman Lee.

Nice to meet you.

I didn’t know that you can speak Korean.

No matter where I live…

…I shouldn’t forget my mother tongue.

I was surprised, when you said you’d come in person.

Did you?

When the former chairman was alive…

…you attended neither investment briefing nor the board meeting…

…even though you have more than 20% of Ciel’s share.

Back then...

...I trusted the former chairman Ah.

But, this time… …I wanted to come in person.

Let’s go.

The vice-chairman is waiting for you.

No.

I’d like to have a tour of Ciel first.

Why don’t you guide me…

…to the place you want to show me the most in Ciel.

Is this the place…

…you want to show me the most in Ciel?

Actually, it’s out of my expectation.

You wouldn’t be interested in Ciel, where it’s already established.

Isn’t this what you’d like to see?

The wasteland...

...which you have the ability to transform drastically.

The Vice-Chairman doesn’t know...

...that you want to have a word with me in private...

does he?

I haven’t decided it yet…

…whether I should hold hands of...

...the vice-chairman Lee Jung Ku…

…or you, General Manager…

…or I should stop my investment.

Eventually…

…you’ll choose me…

…because I put my life on it.

I delivered compensation funds...

...to Bordo International as you said.

Okay.

I’ll brief you on the rest later in the evening.

What's up, that you come to my office without knocking?

It isn’t like you, Director Baek.

Are you aware of what’s going on in Ciel and doing nothing?

You will lose not only hotel, but your father’s dream too?

What… are you talking about?

Lee Jung Ku gathers flies to build a casino…

…on the land of the Culture Park...

...which is the chairman Ah’s dream.

If you let this go…

…Ciel will be full with smell of money and human feces after one year.

[Ciel Casino Blueprint]

This is a project with a detail plan of assigned budget...

...design, developer and constructor…

…and currently 30% of required investment is funded.

What are you doing in here?

We’re having a presentation.

Please leave.

This is my father...

...the former chairman Ah Sung Won’s design.

Darn it.

You know about this…

…and what it means.

So you shouldn’t do this!

What are you doing?

Take her out!

I think we should finish the presentation here.

Schedule the date again and contact me.

I’m so sorry.

The chairman is very unpredictable.

Mother.

I’m glad to see you, my son.

This is why we should have a venue somewhere else.

What will you do...

...if you make Loman skeptical from the beginning about this?

Loman wanted to have a meeting in Ciel.

If you had to, then you should have kept it quiet.

How could she have known to come to the meeting room?

This is important to me too…

- …you know that. - Don’t make any more mistakes.

If Loman doesn’t join us...

...we can’t make progress..

Okay.

What?

You’re a scumbag.

Mo Ne.

You’re misunderstanding me.

I’m doing this for the hotel…

Mo Ne! Mo Ne!

What the hell are you doing?

I know you’re like a child, but this is too much.

I won’t overlook this one.

What a…

How could you…

Why are you…!

So…

…you shouldn’t trust me from the first place.

- Cha Jae Wan! - Don’t trust me…

…ever.

[Preview]

You can’t…

…you can’t do this to me.

You don’t want me to wait for you?

Answer me!

Will you come back to me!

I never went to you in the first place.

We need more time…

…since the plan changed.

We fall into an ambush. The chairman, Ah Mo Ne.

The chairman isn’t related to this matter.

Don’t approach to her. I came here to tell you this.
