Original subtitles

So...

Excuse me.

[ Episode 5 ]

Sorry to make you wait.

Ta-da!

Looks good, right? Eat, eat.

Hold the spoon, there you go.

Dad!

Hi, Da Young.

Did you have a good day at school?

- What? - Nothing, keep studying.

So much sunlight!

- Keep studying. - Dad, go to sleep.

No, no, I'm fine. Study.

Hurry up.

It's a well-built house.

The height of the ceilings are good for sleeping,

and the kitchen is well ventilated.

Three sides of the living room have large windows,

which gives it a warm, bright feeling.

It used to be... a very nice home.

My dad...

designed it,

and built it himself.

One second, please.

Hi, Hye Joo, what's up?

Did you think about it?

- Huh? - I told you to rent out your house.

Really? Are you serious?

Oh, my, Hallelujah!

- Oh, thank you! - Hold on.

- What? - Oppa, we're going to be okay.

- You can go home tonight. - Really?

What?

So, no one's moving in or anything, right?

No, even if they did, kick them out.

[ Dad's Business Documents, Books ]

This is a tricky house.

She's moved her late father's entire office here.

[ My dad's ]

First...

we need to organize these boxes.

No.

They're all my dad's things.

I'll go through them slowly...

When I have time.

For now...

I want to hold on to them.

All of it?

It might take a while, is that okay?

- How long? - I don't know.

That depends on how much you listen to me.

Well, I agreed to it, so...

I look forward to working with you.

First, today...

let's organize the living room.

You really can't throw anything away.

Of course.

So... what should I do?

You can...

organize your room.

My room?

What you'll work on now is making decisions.

What kind of decisions?

Decide on these...

things' purposes.

Decide on their purposes?

I mean, to me, they can all be tossed out.

No, I need them all!

I won't tell you to toss them now.

But don't you think these things need a purpose?

Rather than wait for your "someday," and rot away in this room.

So...

how long do these things need to wait?

You're letting them know.

Wait for a week, here.

Wait for a month, here.

Wait for three months or longer, here.

The things that don't get used beyond that point,

you need to toss them decisively.

If that's too much, tell me.

It hasn't even been an hour so I won't charge you.

Okay! I'll do it.

That felt so good.

I slept in for the first time in a while.

Kang Hye Joo, your house is not much better.

Let's go.

You're here!

- What are you doing? - I was going to take a shower.

One second, I'm in a rush...

- A share house? - Yeah.

It's a really well-built family home,

flower trees and grass...

used to be all over.

- What? - Anyway, there's a huge garden.

It would be great for Ddo Bok. Right, Ddo Bok?

I can move in today?

Yeah, I know the owner well, I looked into it.

She's cleaning the whole house today.

So you want me to move out right now?

You can't wait one day?

Just swing by.

Once you see it, you'll want to buy me things and do things for me.

You're thinking again.

You think too much!

♫ I feel so good ♫

♫ What is this feeling? ♫

♫ A familiar world seems new when we're together ♫

The old couch,

is a warehouse for memories.

A lost earring,

a piece of popcorn from a movie night,

the couch hides them.

Until you...

lift the cushion.

Kang Hye Joo, you...

Sang A?

Nice seeing you here.

- Right. - Why are you here?

- Why are you here? - Huh?

I heard Da Young is renting out her house.

- So you're looking for a room, too? - Yeah.

You, too?

Mr. Kim, really-

You're the real thing, dude!

- Dude? - Sir.

I moved your father's things to the second floor,

and behind the couch.

I organized the kitchen enough for you to use.

If you're sharing your house, common areas need to be accessible.

Thank you.

You guys...

Im Da Young.

Funny, right?

Hi, Da Young.

I fell for Kang Hye Joo's stunt,

And So Mi...

saw that you were renting out rooms on a real estate app.

Can we come in?

Wow, what a coincidence!

Why are you here?

I'm working.

- You're organizing Da Young's home? - Yes.

Your friends?

Yes.

We went to high school together.

Who is that?

Oh, a master of organization.

He helped me.

I guess he's helping Da Young, too.

We'll call it a day here.

- Okay. - You promised me, you'll organize.

Yes.

We'll set up another day.

How was it? A mess, right?

- Reminds me of your place, sir. - What?

How does my place compare to hers?

You fought me for a whole month.

You don't remember?

Not a whole month. No way...

Sure. See you later, sir.

Alright. You must be tired, get home safe.

How have you been?

Sang A,

I heard you became a jewelry designer.

Yeah. I'm taking a break right now.

When I re-launch my brand next month,

I'll become Vice President and Head Designer.

- So Mi, you have a nail salon, right? - Yeah.

Yeah.

How about you, Da Young?

I work at an... advertising company.

Productions? Or copywriting?

I'm just... an intern.

Anyway, it's so funny to get together again like this.

Right.

I won't stay long.

I'm planning on getting a studio once I start work again.

Well, since we're here,

let us know what the terms are.

So... there's no deposit.

I was thinking of... getting... 500,000 won a month.

500,000? Works for me.

How about you, So Mi?

Works for me, too.

Let's just split the utilities.

Just divide it by three.

- Is that okay? - Sure, let's just do that.

- For meals- - Let's just each take care of that.

It's a houseshare. That's how they all do it.

Convenience, convenience.

Let's do that.

So, it's a deal.

- Looking forward to it. - Me, too.

Where are our rooms?

Oh, over there.

So?

So...

He chased after her like crazy.

At first I didn't know why, so I was going crazy.

My heart breaks for him.

I felt I needed to see her and ask why.

"Was my love not enough?"

"Or did I love you the wrong way?"

She didn't have another man?

Still,

he wanted to see with his very own eyes.

Isn't that how someone who lost his love feels?

Saying goodbye...

She should have told him why she left.

So...

that's why he lives upstairs like a priest?

I'm home.

Just forget about her, Mr. Kim.

What nonsense did you tell them?

You thought I was talking about Ji Woon?

We asked you to tell us about Ji Woon.

It's about me.

My romance!

I'm really tired, so please don't take any appointments tomorrow.

Okay. Sure.

- Thank you. - See you later.

- Hey, Hye Joo. - They're all moved in?

- Yeah. - Put me on speakerphone.

- What? - Hurry up.

Hey, girls!

Hey, come gather, hurry up!

Welcome, Mong Dols!

Hey, you're not the landlord,

- what welcome? - Welcome to being all together.

You can't throw a housewarming party tonight, okay?

I'm busy all day.

So do it tomorrow night, okay?

You're funny.

Hey.

I deserve credit for getting you guys back together.

It's a thank you party for me too, got it?

Okay.

I will visit all the Namdaemun hot spots tomorrow

and bring food, so just you wait.

Okay.

- Bye. - Okay!

Let's go to bed.

Dad.

I got it, don't worry.

Dad, I love you.

Alright, I'll come feed you.

I wasn't expecting much,

but I'm still disappointed.

I'm sorry.

What do you think is the number one rule of advertising?

To understand the intention of the advertiser,

- and the client's needs... - Don't tell me what you learned in school.

You spoke so well last time.

An ad is a story.

The story of the person selling something.

I know you don't get it.

Anyway,

I'll tell you one thing you have in your proposal,

and one thing you don't, just those two.

First, what you do have.

You have a clear target. Who is that?

Me and Team Leader Jo.

You want to impress us, right?

One thing you don't have...

Innovation.

If you were innovative, impressing us would have come for free.

- Right? - I'm sorry.

Apologize to yourself.

We're done.

What?

Did Manager An destroy you?

No.

Come on, Manager An...

it's admirable that you even wrote a proposal.

Being torn apart is a good sign, you know.

- What? - If it's not good enough to tear apart,

she'd just toss it.

Would she even bother to give you feedback?

No. She's something.

You did a good job.

Aigoo, trying so hard. What are you two doing?

Not helpful.

Da Young, don't listen to those silly boys' advice.

Just re-do it.

Hilarious.

Did you think your proposal would get in or something on the first try?

- How are you so confident? - Oh!

Thank you, Sunbae!

Fighting!

- Fighting! Fighting! - What is it?

What?

Fighting.

A soundproof wall is not perfect.

You know that, right?

- Yes. - We need to both be careful.

It's a shared world, right?

So that I don't come knocking,

- let's work together, okay? - Hey.

Why do you think I'm spending my hard earned cash?

If you hate it so much, move!

I know your counseling center isn't doing well and you're taking it out on me.

Hey, who'd want therapy from a guy like you?

You go see a shrink first, jerk!

Dummy, just tell him that...

[ Invoice ]

[ Tax Receipt ]

Han So Mi, where are you? Hurry up!

Let's have a housewarming party!

They're not responding.

They must be busy. Not unemployed like me.

Hey.

You're all starting over.

Da Young's an intern,

So Mi just got her nail salon off the ground.

You might be making the most money.

So... that house helper, is he really amazing?

What?

- The organizer. - He's great at what he does.

What about his face?

Yes, both.

When are they coming home?

This is sad.

Hey, are you guys really not on good terms?

Sorry I'm late.

My last appointment ran late.

I almost got mad. Come and sit down.

Why didn't you get here sooner?

- Come on. - Cheers!

Hey, do you guys remember?

Freshman year, our ethics teacher.

So Mi had a crush on him.

We were trying to set them up...

so, Da Young wrote letters, and Sang A put perfume on them,

and tried to make it look like it was from the History teacher, but

turns out the two of them were dating.

You two...

were in the office getting your a** kicked,

and So Mi went in and said...

"Teacher, it's all my fault."

"They're innocent."

Your pupils were shaking.

Really?

What's wrong with you guys?

What happened?

- Nothing. - Not like that.

You guys were a mess in high school.

The Three Musketeers, so immature.

Then all of a sudden,

after summer of sophomore year, you guys weren't vibing.

What happened?

Did something happen over summer break?

Are you crazy?

What's wrong?

The only person who knew about my family's bankruptcy,

was you. But now everyone in our class knows.

How do they know?

Was that really you?

No, it wasn't me, I swear!

Stop it. Stop it.

Why bring all that up again?

I've forgotten all about it.

Da Young, you...

shouldn't feel bad anymore.

It was me.

I'm sorry, Sang A.

I did it.

I...

was having a really hard time,

and Hye Young kept prodding me.

It just came out of my mouth,

that your family was bankrupt.

That's why...

you weren't studying abroad in America,

and just transferring schools.

I told her.

Da Young, I'm really sorry.

It's my fault.

It's my fault, I'm so sorry.

I'm really sorry.

So Mi had too much to drink.

She's totally out.

I'm moderately drunk,

and can't sleep.

Come in.

Are you okay?

Oh, Mr. Kim gave me organization homework for my room.

It's hard to let things go, right?

Yeah.

I'm sorry.

I thought it was you.

I should have asked.

I...

should have talked more with you, too.

I didn't.

Isn't it funny though?

Our promise came true.

The three of us...

promised to live together when we grew up.

Oh.

Right.

We're really living together now.

- Hold this. - Ow.

Are you okay?

Aigoo.

You drank like a neighborhood ahjussi.

You chugged like 10 times.

- But... what do you think happened to So Mi? - What?

She just said,

she was having a really hard time.

What do you think she was going through?

- I don't know. - No.

Don't do it.

Don't do it, I said...

We're not talking behind your back.

- Sweet dreams. - Goodnight.

You okay?

[ Episode 6 will air shortly. ]

[ Episode 6 ]

So Mi!

Hi.

- Are you feeling okay? - Yeah, I'm okay.

- You're going to work now? - Yeah, I'm late.

I'm sorry, Da Young.

It's okay.

It's just nice to all be together.

- Good morning! - How did you sleep?

- Very well. - Hi, Sang A.

Hey, Han So Mi.

You want to apologize to me, right?

Yeah.

Then...

Apple-ogize to me.

With this apple. Okay?

Okay.

- Oh, my gosh, I need to leave! - Have an apple!

No, I'm so late.

- Still, have a bite! - Have a bite!

Hey, take it with you!

- Hi, Mr. Kim! You're here. - Hi.

I'm planning on organizing the kitchen and the balcony.

- Thank you. - Okay, then.

Let's go.

- Call me. - Okay.

All right...

These are expensive!

Why do you have the windows open?

Do you clean with the windows closed?

To clean without the windows open,

is like going to work without a job.

I think I told you last time.

Are you making fun of me stringing pearls at home?

Let me know if you need help finding pearls.

Since it's at Im Da Young's house, it's my job, too.

[ Tae Hee ]

What's with the video call?

What should I do?

At this hour... it can't be home!

Hurry.

What? Is she hurt?

Da Young, one second.

I can't leave work right now.

I'm an intern, so I can't ask to leave early.

Um...

I have appointments.

The customer is not answering the phone.

Kang Hye Joo did not pick up.

None of your friends can come.

Anyone else?

No, no.

Those three are the only ones who know about my state.

Actually, there's one more person.

You.

Can you... do something...?

My policy says no hospital accompaniment

unless it's a young child...

I have no choice, I'll go with you.

Get up.

I... I...

- You're sorry you yelled? It's okay. - No, no.

I...

You need to pee?

No.

I...

- need makeup. - Makeup?

See that?

Turtle Neck Syndrome.

I really do have Turtle Neck Syndrome.

- You must look at screens a lot for work. - What?

Oh, yes, I do.

Your posture is perfect right now.

Well, I'm so busy at work these days.

If it gets worse, it might turn into a herniated disc.

So maintain good posture when you're working,

- and stretch often. - Okay.

So today,

you should get some physical therapy before you leave.

Sure.

- Wait just a moment, please. - Okay.

Alright.

My makeup looks great today.

It deserves to be recorded.

I already look good,

but pictures need touch-up makeup, too.

My eyes...

One, two, three, chin surgery...

Get smaller, get smaller!

Finally...

brightness effect!

Finished.

I worked too hard and...

it caused neck pain...

I had to come to the hospital.

Neck massages are great for that.

It's nice to be busy, but be sure to take breaks!

Is it because you're sick? You look especially pretty today.

Maybe beauties shine even brighter when they're ill.

My neck hurts, too! How's that hospital?

Are they good?

Alright, Yoon Sang A, you still got it.

[ Tae Hee ]

Hi, Tae Hee.

Oh, my gosh, Sang A, are you okay?

Yeah. They said it's too much screen time,

and my posture when I'm sketching.

Our careers, right?

So...

you can't come to my engagement party tomorrow?

Engagement party?

Oh, of course, I can, why not?

The doctor said it's okay.

- Don't push yourself. - I'm not, I'll be there.

You know you have a plus one, right?

- Of course. - Thanks.

- I put the details in the text thread. - Got it.

I forgot about that.

I don't have an outfit or a date.

Tomorrow, 6 p.m.

Pastiche Gallery, Cheongdamdong.

When we were young,

I thought I was the main character of the world.

I want to be the person who makes the shiny necklaces

and earrings that my mom likes.

I want to make my mom happy.

Sang A has a clear dream,

and an admirable goal of making her mom happy.

Let's all applaud for Sang A so she can make her dreams come true.

- Yay! - I was the main character.

My family, friends, teachers...

Supporting roles, or extras.

I thought the world revolved around me.

I thought the world only existed

when my eyes were open.

If I closed my eyes,

the world would be pitch black, too.

I would imagine that to myself...

before I met Tae Hee.

Wow.

You're Kim Tae Hee from the ice cream commercial?

- Can you get a picture with me? - Sure.

- Can you take it? - Me, too.

One, two, three!

- One, two, three! - Me, too!

Isn't Kim Tae Hee so pretty?

Yeah. She looks like a princess doll.

She's even prettier than in the commercial.

Her clothes are all designer, too.

She was sitting next to Sang A, and I felt so bad for her.

They were like a princess and her handmaiden.

That's the bell, let's go!

I learned after meeting Tae Hee.

Someone like me...

can close her eyes all they want,

but the world won't turn dark

for me.

Hey, is your neck okay?

Yeah, I'm okay.

Thank goodness Mr. Kim was there.

Did you organize?

Can I check?

Not yet...

2009.

2012.

They're all brand new.

They're good quality paper, and pretty...

I can use them to take notes.

What's this?

From an elementary school field trip.

- This? - Middle school.

- This? - High...

Oh! It's from a trip with friends I took in college!

I mean...

I don't want to throw them out.

I felt like I might need them someday.

To organize...

is not about throwing things out.

It's about what you keep.

To not know what's most important,

among the things you own,

means, in your life,

you're forgetting something significant.

Let's do this.

Let's hold on to the memories but let go of the objects.

♫ If I threw out all the painful memories ♫

♫ And cleaned up all the bad happenings ♫

♫ Then would everything be okay? ♫

♫ Will it become a good day? ♫

♫ These days, without warning ♫

♫ You mess up my heart ♫

♫ Is this love? ♫

♫ Sometimes, I feel like ♫

♫ You're living in my heart ♫

♫ I'm thankful for that, ♫

♫ I like that, so I'm happy like this ♫

♫ When I think about you, ♫

♫ I dream about a better tomorrow ♫

Now, these things are not thrown away,

just turned into memories.

I'll leave you to the other things.

New homework.

Also,

promise me.

[ 1 week, 1 month, 3 months ] After these checkpoints, you'll throw them out.

Mr. Kim, thank you so much.

This is my job. I get paid to do it.

Still. Thank you so, so much.

I'll be watching you.

The house helper,

who magically cleans your home.

On top of that... he's hot.

Hey, Mr. Kim Ji Woon.

Go ahead.

If...

I made a personal request,

could you help?

Didn't you do that earlier today?

This...

is really against my policy.

Double pay.

Triple.

Please?

It's not a hard job.

You just have to come with me somewhere.

If I went,

I don't do any role-play.

Boyfriend, lover, husband, that kind of thing.

No, just...

as my partner, we'll go together,

have some food, drink some wine,

meet my friends.

You're not convincing me.

Only two hours tomorrow night, please?

We're like, comrades.

What?

We cleaned up a battlefield together.

Garbage battlefield.

Together? I did it by myself.

Anyway, please?

I'm a patient.

Just two hours tomorrow night, that's it?

Yes! Ow.

I got it.

It worked.

[ House Helper: Together, we can be happier ]

[ Hot House Helper Pam Productions ]

[ By: Im Da Young ]

Wow, it looks great on you.

I'm not just saying that,

you really look like a model.

We'll take this, get me a new one.

Unni, you have great taste.

- Just one second. - No, no.

It's okay.

- I won't be needing it. - What?

Why not, Ji Woon?

Let's talk.

Ji Woon, hold on!

Ji Woon, listen to me!

Ji Woon!

What are you thinking, Sang A? Do you know how much that suit costs?

1.5 million won.

You freak out when you lose a few pearls,

how can you spend that much for a friend's engagement party?

- I can't do this. - Hold on, Ji Woon.

Listen to me.

- Return it? - Quiet!

You're out of your mind.

You buy clothes to wear once and return?

Okay.

Let's say we don't get caught.

Because of your vanity,

you don't care that someone has to buy a used outfit?

I know it's embarrassing.

But everyone at the party,

will be rich elites.

I can't be plain by myself.

I've never done this before.

But apparently a lot of people do it.

I've researched how to return it, so don't worry-

Why do you have to do this?

Is the outer appearance that important to you?

To me, it's important.

If I were in a better place, I wouldn't go this far.

But I don't want to show my friends,

I don't want to get caught.

I don't want to feel even less than.

You might not get it.

I know. I'm not asking you to.

I'm just asking you...

to be by my side.

- I know it's embarrassing and humiliating... - It's okay.

I get it, so stop.

Don't look so desperate, it's not a big deal.

Just this once.

Thank you, Ji Woon.

Also, I'm saying this now.

I won't be responsible.

Seriously. Don't worry.

- I'll get the return somehow. - No.

If you end up feeling worse because of this, I won't be responsible.

Really, Sunbae?

Yeah. They're talking about it right now.

House Helper something.

Manager An was explaining it.

Im Da Young.

- Yeah? - Tea and coffee, please.

Oh, got it!

Housework is no longer...

only a woman's work.

It's a difficult homework for all living in these times.

The Hot House Helper will,

challenge pre-existing gender roles,

and challenge your perception of

predictable, boring housework.

Moreover, by utilizing...

influencers already known to Mom's Cafes and social media,

it will effectively appeal

to women with purchasing power.

- Wow, amazing! - Daebak!

What a great idea.

Great! It's innovative.

I'll leave it to you, Manager An.

Okay.

[ By: An Jin Hong ] I'll choose my own team.

Sure, go ahead.

But do they have to be hot?

Hot House Helper.

You have someone in mind, right?

Pardon?

You didn't turn in a proposal without one, did you?

No, I have someone. His name is Kim Ji Woon.

He's a well-known house helper.

Really?

Write up his profile and show it to me.

Why don't you respond?

Sure, you got it.

Also...

Don't report information related to this project to anyone else.

Got it?

[ Hot House Helper ]

How could she do this?

It's a gloomy day,

and you look gloomy, too.

What happened?

Did they make you run useless errands?

No.

The ladies were saying in the bathroom.

Team Leader Jo was making you run useless errands.

Oh, yeah.

But it's not because of that.

Really?

Really.

It's just stuff.

I'll just think of it all as a good experience.

Thank you, ahjumma.

Sure.

Im Da Young!

Yes?

We have a executive meeting scheduled.

Prepare a powerpoint by tomorrow.

Sure. You got it.

The House Helper, Kim Ji Woon?

- Make sure to attach his picture? - His picture?

Of course, it's a powerpoint. Attach a headshot.

Why are you making that face?

Nothing, no problem. I'll attach a picture.

Get it right with the powerpoint.

Manager!

This Hot House Helper proposal, wasn't it my idea?

It was.

So?

- So why does it have your name on it? - What?

You're using my idea to get points.

This is a classic case of power trip.

I...

won't just sit and take this.

Im Da Young.

Im Da Young!

- Yes? - What are you staring at?

- You have something to say? - No.

Da Young!

Team Leader Jo!

- You have a business trip? - Kindergarten tomorrow morning.

I'm counting on you.

Sure.

- Have a safe trip. - Thanks!

Ow! Hot!

Aigoo...

Team Leader Jo, you need to work out more!

Your body needs strength to bounce off a cart this small.

A man needs muscles! Pecs!

You get rid of some of yours.

He's useless...

Careful not to wrinkle your suit.

You be careful.

That's why I just have it on my shoulders not to wrinkle it.

- Would you like to check your coat? - No thank you.

Careful not to show your tag.

Sang A!

You're all here already. Sorry I'm a little late.

Aren't you overdressed?

It's not much.

Boyfriend?

He's so handsome.

He's not my boyfriend. This is my business partner, Kim Ji Woon.

He's the head of an organization consulting company.

- How about your partners? - Smoking outside.

- How about Tae Hee? - Saying hello to people.

She'll be right back.

One moment.

No thank you.

We left Ji Woon all alone,

and chatted amongst ourselves.

Come over here, have a glass of wine.

Oh, I'm sorry. I don't drink.

Wow, a man who doesn't drink.

I love that!

Sang A, aren't you hot? Take off your jacket.

I'm okay.

I'm wearing a sleeveless, I'm a little cold.

Thank you for waiting, everyone.

As of today, I have officially marked Kim Tae Hee as "not for sale." I'm Kang Sun Woo.

To celebrate the third anniversary of the jewelry shop that Tae Hee has been leading...

Geez, of all days, there had to be a work dinner tonight.

I smell.

I debated what gift to get Tae Hee,

- Would you like a little more? - and we decided to have a small party.

In front of people we love,

I wanted to promise her a happy marriage and life.

We didn't prepare much,

but we would be grateful if you have a good time celebrating us.

He does not simply...

just clean and organize.

The thoughts that are tangled up

with the objects messily strewn about...

He helps me organize them, too.

To say a firm goodbye to things you let go means

to treasure the things you choose to keep.

That is his proposal on how to organize.

He says not to worry.

If you're meant to have something again, you'll encounter it again.

♫ All day, I felt so tired ♫

♫ I barely made it home ♫

♫ When I turn on the lights in my dark room ♫

♫ I feel a bit lonely ♫

♫ But you, you're like a cat owner ♫

Is that what you do at work?

Everybody is so desperate.

It was right here.

It was on a small piece of paper with the number eight on it.

If I don't have that, I'm in big trouble at work.

Can you buy a dinner?

A dinner?

Oh, no! Oh, no!

What are you doing? I think you took a picture.

Is that him? Hello.

Hi, I'm An Jae Hong from Pam Productions.
