All language subtitles for VIP.E11-E12.191119.720p-NEXT

We have a new face joining us.

- Maybe...
- This is Na Jung Sun.

I look forward to working with you.

It could've started
the moment we met.

He wasn't the most
attentive person...

Have you been at this all evening?

You did this all by yourself?

He had a kind heart.

And I...

liked him.

What would you do if you
were to die tomorrow?

I'm not sure.

I thought about it,

and there's nothing
I'd especially do.

I wouldn't mind a normal
day of mine being my last.

That's why I'm happy.

It's nice to know...

that living a normal day
in my everyday life...

is enough for me.

Let's not try too hard...

and just live a simple
and quiet life,

husband.

- Where are we?
- Ms. Hwang In Ok...

would like these shoes by 6pm today.

- Hwang In Ok?
- We're checking overseas.

She's a VIP client of our chairman.

- Let's not make any mistakes.
- Got it.

Isn't she the wife of Sungjin
Steel's president...

who's been all over the news?

I am Deputy Director Na Jung Sun
from Sung Un Department Store.

All this for a pair of shoes?

Just in case they
didn't arrive on time,

I selected similar shoes...

Only bring me what I ask for.

If we can't provide her the shoes,

Myungil Department Store will.

I'll deliver them.

(Satisfy the department
store's top VIP clients.)

Simply speaking, our job is
to serve our VIP clients.

Do you know what's most loved
by the privileged in Korea?

Limited editions.

The department store's
top-paying 999 customers...

are given the Black Diamond status.

They're wealthier than the wealthy.

(The most secretive world)

Our department store is
in need of innovation.

Young and trendy employees
like Director Park...

will help us follow the trend.

Some are doubtful about
making you an executive...

because of your age. Show
them what you're capable of.

I know many are watching
your every move,

but don't burn yourself out.

A new employee will join our team.

Hello, I'm On Yu Ri

Didn't she used to hand out
samples at the food market?

- The Vice President chose her.
- Hop in.

Your personal life isn't
any of my business,

but you should be aware
of office gossip.

Hyenas will come for you.

I guess it's about
being worthy enough.

I overstepped.

(Wounds one wants to hide and
secrets that show through)

How does it feel to be
in a position of power?

I didn't know that the world
could be this generous.

One who grovels here might
be a King somewhere else.

I've exhausted myself
being a working mom,

so try being a working dad for once.

Why must you do everything when
you work the same hours he does?

You've been a staff
member for six years now.

It's time you were promoted
to assistant manager.

I can't do this
anymore. I'm leaving.

I'm sorry. This card
has been suspended.

You need to fix your tie.

Oh, thanks.

(They just wanted happiness
in their ordinary days.)

Where's Ms. Na Jung Sun's desk?

Gosh, why do others' wedding
anniversaries come around so often?

- Will you be home late?
- I'll try not to be too late.

Mr. Park doesn't look
like a romanticist,

but he's so sweet every single year.

You need to step up your game.

I got dressed up and...

Mother.

Where's Mom?

I guess it's my unlucky day.

There was a time when I thought...

my love was special.

(Your husband is having an affair
with someone on your team.)

I got this text message.
Is this true?

- It's not that.
- What's not that?

It's not what you think it is.

What do you think I'm thinking?

What do you think is on my mind?

I thought my love was so special...

that it can mend the
crack of my love.

Is it someone I know?

I'll trust you if you say no.

I can't lose you like this.

I think of you every single day.

He probably held her
hand with his hand.

He probably caressed her face.

Did he whisper that he loves
her while he touched her?

But I had no idea...

that once my love cracks, it
only brings about a bigger gap.

It was sent from a
computer at your work.

At my work?

The computer that the
text was sent from...

is yours.

Stop thinking and open that door.

If I hit on you, will
you fall for me?

You always have to be the lead.

I hope it's not you.

I could accept it only
because it was Jung Sun.

Jung Sun is the type of woman...

who only has a heart for one man.

You should be that way too.

Stop this...

before it's too late.

It's been a while.

The doctor says her inflammation rate it high.

And something abnormal was founded in her blood...

so additional examine is needed.

I guess it's nothing serious though.

But why were you with my mother?

I'll be with your mother so you can go home.

Why would you be with her?

She does need a guardian.

You're not her guardian.

Jung Sun.

It's all in the past. I'm fine.

You shouldn't be.

How can you be fine?

She abandoned us so she could be with her man.

Don't you remember how you...

Don't you forget.

That woman is...

She can never be called our family.

Go home. I'll be with her.

It'd be better if I stay. You should go home, Dad.

She's right.
Don't worry, I'll stay with Jung Sun.

You should go home too.

- Let me stay.
- I don't want you to see me like this.

Go home.

Why did you meet Sung Jun?

Did you ask him for money?

- Well...
- For pity's sake!

How can one live a life like you?

It was the same then,

all you wanted from me was just money.

(Seven years ago)

You've grown well.

I knew your father would raise you well.

Why did you come to see me?

Are you getting married?

Your father told me.

It's not much.

Buy your husband a suit.

There's no need for this.

If there's nothing more...

I'm not trying to act as a mother.

Just...

think of it as a monetary gift.

Even strangers pay more than this. It's nothing.

I don't need it.

So throw it away.

Let me give you this.

I've never done anything for you,

so let me give you this at least.

Your mother?

I thought she passed away.

I don't understand what she wants to do with that.

The funny thing is...

for a moment,

for just a second,

I was happy that I had a mother who takes care...

of her son in law.

Aren't I ridiculous?

Jung Sun.

Thank you.

How shameless I am.

Be well.

I've decided to live properly from now on.

Jung Sun.

Was this the reason...

you came to see me?

Jung Sun, it's not like that.

Jung Sun!

Jung Sun!

(Taesan Hospital)

I'm staying because everything happened
so quick today,

if you have to stay here longer,
I'm going to hire someone to take care of you.

You are my biological mother,
so I'll do that as a daughter.

But...

I don't want to see you again from now on.

(Red pill or blue pill
Episode 6)

Ms. Na has taken her day off today
due to personal reasons.

If any of her work needs
to be done urgently,

do it on her behalf, Ms. Lee.

Okay.

I accepted it...

because it was Jung Sun.

Because she was...

a single-hearted person...

whom you mentioned.

And I thought...

you were the same.

You need to be...

the same kind of person.

- Hyun Ah.
- Stop it now...

before it goes out of control.

You came to work, Ms. Na.
I thought you couldn't come.

I got off early.

(Head's Office)

Chairman Daniel will visit Korea today.

- I thought it was next week.
- Yes.

They called this morning that
they've had a change of schedule.

They're going to choose
between Myungil and us...

to open their store.

We must hurry since he'll visit us
first.

Right.

The second half depends on this.
Make no mistake.

Yes, sir.

It's not just to get one more
on my side...

that I want to promote you
to an executive.

As you're aware,

our firm is very conservative.

We're all used to
the old-fashioned way.

But the world is changing.

We ought to change too.

If a man like you becomes
an executive,

the promotion itself will be
a symbol of change.

Some of the senior executives are...

reluctant to promote you
because of your age.

Prove to them how capable you are.

Yes, sir.

I heard he likes to pay
a surprise visit.

The rumor was true.

As you've all heard,

Chairman Daniel is
very difficult to deal with.

It's a significant formality
for the Tifone exhibition.

Please report the progress
of the matters...

- you're in charge of right away.
- Okay.

- Okay.
- Sure.

Should we change the schedule
we've planned for a month?

Yes.

- Is that even possible?
- We have to make it work.

The second half of our year depends
on it.

This has been Vice-President's
top priority this year.

Have you worked late for days
without even knowing what this is?

Yes.

Mr. Ma.

Do you know what our country's
rich people's favorite is?

Limited edition.

As you already know, we give out
Black Diamond membership...

to the VIP customers
who are at the top 999...

of the sales
of our department store.

Unlike the regular VIP cards,

there are numbers on the cards
of our Black Diamond members.

The customer that had spent the most gets
number one.

The numbers are in the order
of the purchase amount.

Those numbers become their status.

The Tifone exhibition is
our most special event...

that only 99 VIP customers
from number 1 to 99...

among our Black Diamond members are
invited.

But does it has to be
the Tifone exhibition?

If we were to hold an event
for VIPs with a common brand,

would it be effective?

Tifone is...

a high-end jewelry brand
which is the hottest in Europe.

If we make a successful bid,

there will be the first Tifone store
in all of Asia.

If this contract goes forward,

we'll have ten of the limited edition jewelry,

and for those ten items
of limited edition jewelry,

we invite 99 Black Diamond members,

and hold an auction.

Limited edition.

Now, do you understand...

why the Tifone exhibition is
so important to us?

Yes.

Then what should you do now?

You rush
to the business strategy team,

and review the contract.

Yes, I'll go now.

That kid...

He must have graduated
from a good university.

When are we going to finish
training him?

Ms. On.

Will you help me
if you're not occupied?

- Sure.
- We'll leave for the airport now.

Get ready.

Okay.

Please stand by the eighth gate
in 30 minutes.

Yes, thank you.

We'll first check the limousine
when we get to the airport.

Okay.

Are you nervous?

I'll attend the chairman
next to him.

You just have to check
any other problems on the move.

Right.

If an unexpected situation happens,

just smile.

You know what they say.
You can't spit a smiling face.

That saying goes universal.

I'm Na Jung Sun, Deputy General
Manager of Sung Un Department Store.

Welcome to Korea.

Nice to meet you.

You can speak in Korean.

I heard you were of Korean descent.

But I didn't know you were
this fluent in Korean.

I'm Park Ji Won, Deputy General
Manager of Myungil Department Store.

Mr. Park.

I thought you were visiting us
tomorrow.

Well, I heard you were arriving today...

and just came by to say hello.

Have you had any inconvenience
on your way here?

We got here conveniently,
thanks to you.

You're also fluent in Korean,
Ms. Kim.

It's good that you've had
a comfortable trip.

Let me take you to your hotel.

We heard...

that you're very interested
in Korean antiques,

so we've prepared an antique shop
with a good selection.

I'll show you around
at your leisure.

- An antique shop?
- Yes, sir.

Can we visit for a moment?

Of course, if that's what you want.

Let's go.

We'll take you there.

What do we do?

Follow them.

Now it's a war.

It's been 20 years
since I was last here.

I'm really looking forward
to seeing how it has changed.

I hope Korea meets your expectations.

This is off-balance.

There's supposed to be
86 cross-section cuts,

but I see 87.

Trade it as defective.

There were 86
when we did the 3rd inspection.

No, there's a cut at the edge
of the bottom's side, okay?

That is barely noticed
to the naked eye.

No one can tell.

Do you really want to discard
a 100,000 dollars...

worth of products
just because of that?

It is what it is.

Trade it as defective.

Is it the workshop?

Hey, just relax. Look outside.

Come on, it's Korea.

Yes.

We'll have to postpone
the hotel's schedule.

All right.

I'll see how it goes and call you again.

I didn't know there were still
houses like this one.

Yes.

They're still left in some areas.

Can I stay there for a night?

Is it too tough of a favor?

If you don't mind,

we'll find you a place for you
to stay if you don't mind.

No.

We're supposed to arrange
his schedule today.

We'll find you a place
to stay right away.

Thank you.

No problem. We'll do our best.

There's a place called Hanok Village...

where Korean traditional houses are
gathered nearby here.

Would you like to stop by?

We'll escort you there
if you want to visit the place.

- Did you find a traditional lodging?
- We're looking.

Most of them are guest houses,
so they have small rooms.

We're checking if there's
any private house available.

Ms. Lee, I've got
the contact number.

Okay, send it to me. Thank you.

How's it going there?

Those punks from Myungil don't
see reason at all.

We shouldn't let Myungil
find one first.

Secure a lodging
as soon as possible.

Okay. Call me when it's fixed.

Hello?

Are you the guardian
of Ms. Kye Mi Ok?

Yes.

The test results are out.

We want you to come
to check the results yourself.

All right.

Are you okay?

Okay.

I guess it's more than 1,000 years.

Probably.

Whenever I see something like this,
I come to think,

"You must've gone through
so much trouble,"

"but you've survived from it
like this."

If you count the leaves of a plant,

about 90 percent of the leaves follow...

the Fibonacci sequence...

such as 3, 5, 8, and 13.

Nature seems to be irregular,

but within it, there's
a perfect mathematical balance.

That makes nature...

strong...

and beautiful.

Ever since I was young,
I've been attracted...

to anything perfect and balanced.

I guess...

it's kind of like yearning.

You know,

I'm full of imbalance.

One day,

my father told me that...

it isn't the appearance,
but the expression...

that makes people beautiful.

And that expression comes...

from their hearts.

I couldn't understand it
for a long time.

But as I worked in this field,

I've come to understand it.

Ironically,

meeting people
who are almost perfect has...

made me realize what that means.

What makes people beautiful isn't...

the appearance,
but it's people's heart.

You are...

beautiful enough right now.

- Are you okay?
- Sir, are you okay?

It's okay. Everything is over now.

- Everything is okay.
- Sir.

No, Daniel. Daniel.

Daniel, it's okay. It's just water.
He was just giving you water.

Look at me. It's okay.

Calm down. It's okay.

Are you okay?

I'll be right back.

This is the closest place.

I think
we need to call it a day now.

Will you go to a hospital?

No, to the lodging.

(New message from Ms. Lee Hyun Ah:
1574-5, Jongam-dong, Jongno-gu)

We found a place for you to stay.

We'll escort you so you can rest up.

Let's move after 30 minutes then.

Sure.

Good job.

It must've been hard to find it.

I can do it myself.

I know you can't. It's very hard
to look at your own sole.

It'll sting a bit.

Thank goodness there was
a pharmacy nearby.

You need to go back quickly.

She said they'd take off
in 30 minutes, so it's okay.

Your wound isn't light.

If it keeps hurting,
go see a doctor.

You could be infected.

Okay.

It was crazy today, wasn't it?

There you go.

This is what our job is like.

Unexpected things happen
here and there all the time.

You can fully realize how your life
doesn't go the way you want.

It's fascinating.

The fact that someone like me gets
to see someone like him from up close.

It's so fascinating.

- We need to go.
- Right.

I'm Park Sung Jun, the Head
of Sung Un Department Store.

Apologies. The chairman isn't
in good condition.

It's okay.

Did anything make you uncomfortable?

We've had a good time thanks to you.

I'm glad to hear that.

You must be tired.
We'll leave so you can rest.

We'll call you later
regarding the meeting schedule.

Okay.

You must've gone through
a lot today.

Well,

it's fine.
The others worked hard too.

Your mother will...

be okay.

- I didn't order this.
- It's from that man over there.

It's better together than alone.

Thank you for the drink.

Be more quick-witted if you want
your customers to come again.

Why would you treat me
like I'm some kind of a bug?

Sorry, I'm late.

What?

Honey.

You waited for me.

I could deal with him myself.

Can't you just thank me?

I never asked you for your help.

I know. I just...

I wanted to help you
because you seemed to be in trouble.

I didn't expect it'd turn out
to be nothing.

I'm sorry.

Thank you anyway.

Don't you need another drink?

You look like you need one.

We keep running into each other.

That place was full
of people I knew.

I guess we're really meant to be.

Do you not like men?

I'm just showing my annoyance
for unwanted attention.

What is that stupid logic
that I don't like men?

I'm sorry, let me correct myself.

Do you hate me?

Well,

we met each other at a place
that might have seen suspicious,

but that doesn't mean you should...

be so difficult towards me.

So I kept thinking...

You seem so cold towards me,
considering that I'm a coworker.

Is it because I flirted with you
when we first met?

Do you hate me?

I may...

have made a mistake.

I'm sorry.

I promise you
that it won't happen again.

It's like you are
pushing me back even more.

It seems you need a lady
who will hang out with you.

I'm not that kind of woman.

So,

look for another woman.

You're an interesting person.

I don't need a woman
that will hang out with me.

I just want to get to know
my mysterious coworker.

Then...

can I ask you something?

I'm pleased that you want
to ask me something.

That day,

when we met at the elevator
of our workplace,

didn't you stop me on purpose?

Do you know something?

I just asked you if you wanted to eat
with me because I was so hungry.

According to the CT image,
there's a tumor in the stomach.

We need to take a biopsy.

She can leave after taking a biopsy,
and come back later.

A biopsy?

Are you saying
that it can be cancer?

We have to do a biopsy to be sure.

I'll stay.

It's fine.

I'll stay, you can go.

You shouldn't stay here
for another night.

You spent the whole night here
and went for work without rest.

I'll stay. Don't worry about it.

Make sure...

that Mom gets the biopsy done.

Okay. Don't worry.

Mr. Park,

are you sleeping?

No.

I'm sorry,

but can I ask you a favor?

Of course.

Can you keep on...

taking care of Jung Sun?

Why?

Is it too difficult?

No,

it's what I should do.

She's hurt because of me.

It seems that life is fair
after all,

since a person like you is
taking care of Jung Sun.

I'm glad.

A dinner invitation?

Yes.

Chairman Daniel wants to invite us
to dinner.

He declined dinner
with the company presidents.

Isn't it better if we guide him
to that other dinner?

He already declined that dinner
and invited our team.

It's hard for us to decline it.

I think...

we should go.

I don't think it's polite
if we declined his offer.

I agree with her.

Chairman Daniel stays in Korea
for only 3 nights and 4 days,

and he wants to spend
that important time...

on dinner with Yu Ri and Jung Sun.

I think it means a lot.

Instead of declining
his kind gesture,

isn't it better
if we accept his gesture?

It should help us to get the contract.

Then that's what we should do.

I think we should go.

Don't worry too much.

We're just going to have dinner.

Okay.

Yes, madam?

What?

Madam, please wait.
I'll go there right now.

Can you wait in the office
for a moment?

I need to head out for a while.

If there's an emergency,
please call me.

Okay.

Didn't you hear
that you need another test?

You can't hold in a secret.

I told you to keep it a secret,
but you told her!

It's fine. I don't have to do it.

I know about my illness.

- You knew about it?
- I'll take care of myself.

Don't worry.

How are you going
to take care of yourself?

They say it's cancer!

You should do the test
and get surgery...

I want to live, too.

I already booked the surgery.

I asked Mr. Park...

for money
because of the surgery fee.

Don't worry.

I'm not that shameless,

so I won't torture you more.

However, that money belonged to me.

The money I gave you
to get a suit for Mr. Park,

that money belonged to me.
It wasn't your dad's.

What was the reason?

What was the reason
you left Dad and me?

Your dad was...

the only good thing
that happened to me.

However,

I ruined my life.

I couldn't handle all that goodness
in my life.

I hated that his family made me
feel unworthy and small.

I wanted to run away.

And that's how I met that man.

Yes.

I was too emotional.

I didn't know what I was doing,

- so I went with my feelings...
- You should have resisted it!

You should have resisted it
with all your might!

You're right.

That's what I should have done.

Did you ever regret it?

Yes, I did.

Every day, every second,
I regretted it.

But what's the use?

It already happened.

Don't lie to me.

If you did,
you should have come back.

You abandoned us,

and I stupidly kept waiting for you.

I was going to forgive you
if you had come back.

But you didn't come back.

When I realized
you won't come back...

that I was abandoned,

I wished that you were dead.

That way, I could miss you
when I thought about you.

That's when I decided.

I decided I'll never be the person
to leave.

I decided I'll never leave anyone.

I'll be all right.

It's difficult to kill
a person like me.

Remember, no news is good news.

I'll never come to see you again.

Keep in touch.

I should at least know
whether you're alive or not.

Make sure to call me
after the surgery.

You are something else.

She just needs some time.

I must pay for what I've done.

Goodbye.

Will you be okay?

Sure. It's work.

We should go, Ms. On.

Yes.

See you later.

How are you feeling?

I'm all right thanks to you.

Seoul is quite nice.

The city is much more beautiful
than I thought.

Lia and I left Korea
when we were little.

We've always wanted to visit.

We were both adopted.

It's a relief
that you liked it here.

Have you studied Korean
by yourselves?

I'm nothing compared to him.

Hangeul is fun.

The consonants made...

based on the organs of speech.

So it's easy to learn.

It's a logical
and beautiful language.

I must be very boring to listen to.

No, you're not.

It's just that I haven't been
on this kind of occasion.

I'm just nervous.

I also find it difficult...

to make eye contact or talk
to strangers...

as you must have realized.

I hope you make yourself
comfortable here.

Thank you.

You have...

impressive eyes, Ms. On.

They remind me of black sapphires.

They're deep and clear,
but somewhat sad.

I apologize if it was offensive.

I meant it as a compliment.

No, it was more than I deserve.

You also have beautiful eyes.

No, I don't.

Okay, this calls for a toast now.

Everybody, raise up your glasses.

Cheers.

I'm going to tell Daniel
that we should go...

with the professional CEO system.

Then it's your job to promote me
to that position.

Yes.

Once I become CEO,

we'll be selling Tifone.

Let me know when it's done.

Please pretend you didn't hear that.

I know.

I know what she's up to.

But...

I need her for now.

- But...
- I'm...

afraid of mirrors.

At some point,

I've started to find myself
full of imbalance in the mirror...

unbearably hideous.

And she was...

the first person to tell me
that she likes me.

She has helped me...

move forward.

If it weren't for her,

Tifone wouldn't have existed.

I know that she has changed.

But it's okay.

Because I need her.

Pretend you don't know about it.

Please, I beg you.

All right.

I'll go inside.

I hate beans.

They look like medicine.

But they're good for you.

You take the red pill,

you stay in Wonderland.

It's like the red pill.

And I show you how deep
the rabbit hole goes.

Was the red pill
that showed him the truth?

If you take the blue pill,

you get to stay in the world
you believe in.

If you take the red pill,

you find out the truth, right?

When I watched that movie,

I thought the protagonist was
stupid.

It would have been much easier...

if he had taken the blue pill.

I heard there's a saying in Korea.

Ignorance is bliss.

I also thought so
when I first watched...

this film.

But nowadays, I've started thinking,

which is worse?

Would you be able to call it
a real-life...

if you're ignorant of the truth?

It could be simpler than we think.

Wouldn't it depend on what you want?

Will it be all right...

just to have what you want?

Won't it be better...

than not having it?

I don't know.

I guess you're right.

Ms. Na,

which one would you choose between
the red pill and the blue pill?

I don't know.

Does a blue pill even exist...

in reality?

In reality,

the truth is always revealed
in the end.

Things are getting too serious.

I just hate red beans. That's all.

Young Jun won't eat vegetables.

So he's not constipated.

What kind of a five-year-old gets
constipated?

I never knew.

Seo Jun was first happy
to eat ramyeon.

And since we're eating it too often,

now he wants to eat rice.

I tried to cook him rice,

but I didn't know
where we kept rice.

You were right.

I went too far.

Without you,

the house is a mess.

I know I shouldn't let the house...

become a mess
just because you aren't there.

But it's a mess
because you aren't there.

I'm trying to make it
less of a mess.

I know where rice is now.

I know how I should make
Young Jun eat vegetables too.

I'll try harder.

So Mi Na,

come back.

I miss you being in our house.

Please.

No.

Not yet.

I think you're amazing.

You had no problem
talking with people like them.

My mind went blank that I didn't
even know what I was saying.

You did a good job.

Everyone laughed more at ease
thanks to you.

Sir, can you pull the car over here?

Go home in this, Yu Ri.
I'll get off here and walk home.

Pay for the fare with this.

- No, I...
- I'll charge it to the company.

Goodnight.

You're home.

We need to talk.

Hello.

What brings you here at this hour?

I thought of her and stopped by.

Maybe it's the nice weather today,
but she's in good condition.

Thank you.

Mom.

I'm here.

Hello.

I wish you'd tell me
that everything is all right.

(Mother's Notebook)

(5 to 7 weeks)

(Sonogram)

I'll get going.

I heard you prepaid
the hospital fees worth a year.

I'm happy for you. You used to be
so worried about the payment.

But did you wan a lottery
or something?

I got help from someone I know.

Who?

The amount is too big
for some acquaintance to...

You must be relieved now
that you're free from the worries.

Please take good care of my mom.

Maybe she really won a lottery.

I got this text.

(Your husband is having an affair
with someone in your team.)

I was going to bury it.

I tried to.

But it keeps growing in my mind.

I need to know...

about that woman
whom you had the affair with.

I need to know.

(Special thanks to Kim Mi Kyung)

I think about it every day.

You must've held that woman's
hand with your hand.

You must've touched her face.

I wonder if you said you loved her
as you touched her.

Jung Sun.

Did you take care of my order?

I'll take care of it soon.

It's over for me.

So please do the same.

Are you sure you won't regret it?

Don't think you can avoid me.

I'm not going to step back.
