Original subtitles

Hye-jeong wants to take Ha-ri with her.

She has tendered her resignation.

What am I going to do?

She must have really left.

Min Ha-ri...

How can you leave me like this?

If you leave like this...

If you leave,

how am I supposed to live, Ha-ri?

Kim Hye-jin?

Hye-jin, what are you doing here?

Ha-ri!

You didn't leave yet!

You're still here.

I'm relieved.

I'm so relieved.

What are you doing here?

Hey! How can you leave without telling me?

How could you leave me?

Don't go, Ha-ri!

Who said anything about going anywhere?

Aren't you following your mom to Japan?

No.

I'm here to see my mom off today.

See her off? So you're not going with her?

Hey!

After how I've wronged you,

do you really think I'd run away?

Did you come out here because you thought I'd leave without telling you?

Then, you're really not leaving?

Of course not.

That's such a relief.

I really thought you were going to leave!

Gosh, that's enough tears.

Why would I ever leave you?

How could I?

I'm going to stay close to you like a gum stuck on your shoe

and apologize for the rest of my life.

Don't cry.

Did you make up with your mom then?

Yes.

We spent time together and talked about a lot of things.

I couldn't understand why she left me when I was a kid,

but...

I somewhat understand now.

Not as her daughter,

but as a woman.

That's good.

It's such a relief.

But what happened though?

You resigned from work and canceled your phone.

Where are your clothes and shoes?

I realized I made such a foolish mistake

because I'm still too childish.

My dad gave me my job

and I've been buying whatever I wanted with his credit card.

I've been living the easy life but still complaining.

I've also been meeting men who are not even worth my time.

LETTER OF RESIGNATION

And then...

I...

went for something...

that didn't belong to me.

Every time I saw your face,

I felt like crying.

I didn't know what to say or how to say it,

so I ran away out of fear...

like a little child.

Also,

I couldn't say what I needed to tell you.

I'm sorry, Hye-jin.

I'm really sorry.

Gosh.

I can't believe I did that to you.

I'm so sorry.

So, where do you go from here?

I'm going to give myself some time.

I'll try to discover what I can accomplish on my own.

I think they want you back at the hotel.

I'm never going there again.

From now on, I'll do everything on my own.

Everything!

MR. JI

I'm near your place. Can I see you?

I'm going to take a shower now.

Ha-ri.

I'm headed off to the convenience store.

-Should I go with you? -No!

Take a shower. I'll be right back.

Okay.

Sung-joon.

Hi, Hye-jin.

What brings you here at this hour?

Are you coming from the office?

Wait. I need ten seconds.

What are you doing?

Three, two, one.

Okay, I'll leave now.

Wait.

What?

I'm just here to see you.

I thought it would lift up my spirits.

Are you okay?

You seem really tired.

Is reaching number one worth it when you're under all this stress?

It's not just me hanging in the balance.

What do you mean by that?

When I accepted this mission,

I did not simply aim to revive The Most Korea,

but I accepted responsibility for my teammates as well.

I'm sure some people will survive even if The Most disappears,

but some will be adversely affected.

Especially those who still lack experience and abilities.

The magazine's fate is at stake but I'm also responsible for the team.

I have to take this seriously.

But it's difficult to do it alone.

If you really feel sorry for me,

you can always give me a hug.

I'm sure it'll cheer me up.

I'm being ridiculous again after I told you I wouldn't be.

I should get going.

Sleep well.

What?

You're back.

What is this?

Why are you...

in my house?

Oh, I took a shower

since I was feeling stiff.

I love the water pressure on your shower though.

Pizza delivery!

I didn't order any.

I ordered it because I was hungry.

I haven't had dinner yet.

Hey...

Are you okay?

You seem startled.

I'm sorry.

I've developed some of the ideas from the meeting among others.

I stayed at home for the last two days trying to think,

and my mind started flowing with ideas.

This is why I never put my mind to things.

Could I be...

a genius?

Have you decided to return then?

Well, you went out of your way to convince me,

so I'm going to.

This idea is underdeveloped...

and this is already old.

New Look's been working on this idea for three months now.

What?

As for the cafe report,

try to expand beyond those here in Korea.

It may be interesting to compare our coffee shops

with the ones found in Europe.

Woody Allen's Midnight in Paris will be a good reference.

Look, I figured just as much.

And this.

Let Mr. Kim Poong-ho handle this one.

He's rather meticulous and good at analyzing this type of data.

For this, you can refer to Ms. Cha's article in last year's August issue.

It should be helpful.

Are you some sort of sage?

How are you keeping tabs on everything?

But what made you change your mind?

I thought you're not that easy to convince.

I know, right?

I don't know what convinced me.

I guess it's become fun again.

The threat of our magazine closing down is giving me motivation.

I enjoy games where the odds are stacked against me.

As you know, I'm a lunatic.

I won't give up without giving it a try

until the bitter end.

We still have a 50-50 chance.

I should get going.

It's on you if you dream about me.

That won't happen.

I'm late.

-Wifey, jacket! -Yes?

I'm off now.

Oh, wait.

Are your eyebrows too dark?

There you go.

-Go! -See you!

Oh, right.

Well...

Have I ever told you that I love you?

Gosh.

Have a good day!

And stop running!

Wifey, make lots of money!

Jackson!

Mr. Kim!

Want a taste?

Mr. Kim, are you back at the magazine?

Maybe?

I thought you were gone for good.

I really thought you went somewhere else.

I'm so relieved now!

Why are you so happy to see me?

You're getting my hopes up.

You look like a puppy that's happy to see me.

Wag your tail and bark for joy

Let's go, Coco.

Why haven't you been showing up for work?

Why do you think?

Do I really have to tell you?

By any chance,

was it because of me?

Do you really think I almost quit my job because of you?

Because you turned down my heartfelt confession?

My goodness. What's wrong with me?

Why would you quit your job because of me?

You're right. It was because of you, Jackson.

What?

Ever since you kicked me to the curb,

I had a huge hole in my heart

and work just wasn't that fun anymore.

Well, Mr. Kim,

-about that day-- -But I'm fine now.

I'm starting to enjoy this again!

Then, what made you enjoy it again?

Hello.

So what made you return?

Who knows?

Oh, right.

Jackson, have you ever heard of this quote?

"It's not over until it's over."

Sure, Yogi Berra said that.

You're a smart one, aren't you?

But what does that have to do with anything?

Nothing. It just crossed my mind.

"It's not over until it's over."

Pretty inspirational, right?

What's he talking about?

Buon giorno!

Kim Shin-hyuk!

Shin-hyuk!

Oh, my!

That lunatic.

Seriously?

-Don't you dare hug him. -That hurts.

Can you welcome me back with a little less violence?

-Seriously, where were you? -You're unbelievable!

Things will get noisy around here again.

How is the main interview coming along for our 20th anniversary issue?

Well, we're trying to get a hold of Leonard Kim, but...

Leonard Kim?

Are you talking about the fashionista-turned-director

who recently won awards for his movies?

He's trending these days.

But he's notorious for avoiding interviews.

Do you think he'll work with us?

Well, Mr. Ji,

I think we're over our heads here.

Maybe we should switch to Kim Shin-ae?

That's a bad idea.

Why?

Now is not the time to give up.

We still have a sliver of chance.

He's notoriously private, so if we get a hold of him--

We'll have the perfect story.

If we're the first Asian magazine to work with him--

Then we're bound to be number one in domestic sales.

New Look was able to land Hollywood stars--

So why is it impossible for us to land Leonard Kim?

Am I right?

Since when did those two have good chemistry?

I don't know.

This isn't good.

Yes, let's challenge those guys at New Look.

It's our 20th anniversary issue, so let's grab the top spot.

It's not like you to be this motivated.

Did something happen to you while you were away?

Okay. We'll continue to pursue Leonard Kim.

Wait. Your nose is bleeding!

Your nose.

My goodness.

Blood!

-Here. -Please have a seat.

Throw your head back.

No, lower your head.

You're supposed to throw your head back.

-No, lean forward. -No, lean back.

-No, lean forward. -What do you know anyway?

I'm fine.

I'm fine.

You have a show to attend on Jeju Island tomorrow.

Will you be all right?

You seem a bit tired.

I'm okay. I'll take care of it.

You have to throw your head back.

He looks a bit pale too.

Does he get enough sleep?

Maybe he's not eating right.

Hye-jin, what language is that?

Are you communicating with aliens?

What?

Was that not funny?

I thought it was.

Here are the minutes.

Thank you, Ms. Kim Hye-jin.

But are you okay?

You were bleeding earlier.

Yes, I'm fine.

You don't look so well.

I'm really okay.

What can I do to make you believe me?

Maybe I should lift my chair.

-Or maybe the desk? -Okay, forget it.

You're fine, I get it.

It's nice.

I like that you're worried about me.

Well, carry on, Mr. Ji.

Mr. Ji,

they say burdock tea is good for nosebleeds.

It's a much better choice compared to coffee.

JUN-U

After work, let's go to that jjamppong restaurant again.

I'm sorry. I'm not feeling well today.

Why? What's wrong?

-Are you okay? -No, well...

My head hurts a little.

Why does your head hurt?

Could you have a cold or maybe the flu?

Do you have a fever? Are you getting the chills?

Let me see.

Oh, my. Han Seol, maintain yourself.

Do not find him attractive!

No, it's not that bad.

A-reum!

Hye-jin.

Yes?

Can we postpone our meeting concerning your article to tomorrow?

I'll be with the Art Department all day.

Sure, take a look when you have spare time.

Sorry.

I nominate Mr. Kim Shin-hyuk for the task.

He's full of ideas and is a great writer as well.

I'll help you out.

Kim Shin-hyuk.

-I know. -I'll leave it to you.

I could wait until you have the time...

Jackson, please don't tell me that I make you uncomfortable now.

That'd be silly.

No, of course not.

I've been giving you a hard time, so...

We'll let the coin decide then.

Heads, I help you with your article.

And tails, we forget the whole thing, okay?

No.

The general's face, so it's heads!

That's not heads, it's tails!

You told me that the general was tails the last time!

It turns out you were right.

The general's face is heads.

I've checked with the Korean Minting Corporation.

You've checked with the Korean Minting Corporation?

Then, we'll have our meeting in ten minutes.

Is the number always tails?

He said it was heads though.

Is it heads or tails?

Did you really write this, Jackson?

You've got the basics down and you've got a great premise.

But look at this, Jackson.

If you don't hook your audience with the very first line,

you'll lose them.

For instance,

compare these two articles.

They're of the same item,

but one stands out more.

This one, right?

Me too. Why? Because I wrote it.

You want to be impactful right off the bat,

then your readers will continue to read.

In order to write a killer article, you have to constantly gather ideas.

Make a scrapbook of any good articles you come across.

When you have writer's block, you can refer to your scrapbook

and ideas will start popping like soda.

Wow, I never knew you were so good at this.

You're like a completely different person.

You've finally realized it.

Did watching me work make you see me in a different light?

What?

I have to agree that there's nothing more attractive than a capable man.

My professionalism probably seemed sexy to you.

Did it make your heart skip a beat?

Hold on, Mr. Kim...

I haven't shown you the real me yet

and what kind of man I could be.

It's like I said.

"It's not over until it's over."

Well, Mr. Kim,

I really like you a lot.

Is that so?

So you like me.

You like me a lot.

-What? -Okay, I get it.

You really like me a lot.

I see it now.

That's it.

Mr. Kim!

Gosh.

That's not what I meant.

Han Seol.

Wait a second.

You are a little warm.

I wasn't sure, so I got you several different medications.

This is for migraines, this one's for the flu,

and this is for a runny nose.

If you get a fever, take this.

Jun-u, where were you? Follow me. We're going to the agency.

Yes, Ms. Cha.

You can't take medication on an empty stomach,

so be sure to eat something. Okay?

Don't get sick! Make sure you eat something!

Kim Jun-u...

Why do you have to be so kind and lovable?

Why can't you be the chairman's son?

-It's my lucky day! -Let's do this!

-I got it! -Nice!

Why can't they be quiet so he can get some sleep?

Are you picking a fight?

-What are you doing? -What's the matter?

I'll pay for lunch today.

-Really? -I really want to pay for lunch today.

-Really? -Nice!

I've already eaten, so go on without me.

Go and enjoy your lunch.

What's with you?

Oh, my sun

What are you doing, my dear?

What?

Oh, my!

Your lipstick was smudged.

There you go.

You look very Most-esque again.

Thank you very much, Lint.

Ouch.

Jackson, there you are.

What is it?

Let's do the most fun thing ever.

And what would that be?

-Anything but this. -What?

-Let's go. -I have to deliver this to Poong-ho.

He can wait for another 30 minutes and it won't kill him.

Relax! Sometimes you need to take a breather.

-Tea time! -Oh, no.

I'll have an iced Americano.

Then I'll have an Americano too.

Will your girlfriend have it iced as well?

What?

Well, I'm not his--

She's not my girlfriend...

yet.

Let me get a slice of that cake too.

-Sure. -Mr. Kim.

Well, Mr. Kim,

I really do like you a lot, but...

There you go pouring your heart out again.

I already know that you really like me.

Right?

Well...

How should I put this?

-What I'm trying to say is-- -Is this why you like me?

Oh, my!

Just looking at me makes you smile and laugh.

No, what I'm trying to say is--

Wait, is this why you like me then?

My tooth! I've lost my tooth!

Mr. Kim!

It's not right to leave things vague between us.

-Don't you like me, Jackson? -What?

Why wouldn't I like you?

Good. Then I've still got a chance.

It's like I said.

"It's not over until it's over."

You'll eventually be mine, Jackson.

See you around.

Mr. Kim!

Why is he making me feel so bad?

You're home. Have a slice of pizza too.

Hey, Kim Hye-rin, what are you doing here?

Ha-ri has some extra time now.

I want to talk to her about this and that.

Oh! Is that Sung-joon calling you?

No, it's not!

Yes, Ms. Cha.

I've already emailed that to you.

Yes, see you tomorrow.

I'll get changed and join you for dinner.

Ha-ri.

There's actually a guy following Kim Hye-jin around.

Do you want to know what's funny though?

She's playing hard to get! Isn't that hilarious?

He seems to be an old friend,

but he's either blind or he has low standards.

It's one or the other.

My little sister, eat up.

That way you'll grow nice and tall!

What are you doing?

He even came over to our house the other day.

Gosh, you're so cute.

How can you be this adorable?

You're just drop dead gorgeous, aren't you?

Let me go while I ask nicely.

It hurts.

Wifey.

Come here.

Ta-da!

What's this?

Open it.

Gosh.

Why did you get me shoes all of a sudden?

I promised to get you a pair.

So, do you like it?

They're really pretty,

but I don't think they'll suit me.

Why don't you change it for one in your size?

I'll wear something more comfortable.

Hye-jin, don't you know that a good pair of shoes

can take you to a good place?

What?

Wear these shoes and go somewhere nice.

Don't think about anything and don't worry about anything.

Go wherever you please.

Wherever your heart takes you.

They'll feel uncomfortable at first and you may have trouble walking,

but you'll quickly get used to them.

Eventually, you'll get comfortable...

as if they were meant to be.

Ha-ri,

I like how things are now.

You idiot.

Don't worry about me and just go to Ji Sung-joon.

If you keep acting like this, I'll feel too sorry to stay at your side.

I don't care if I remain just friends with Sung-joon.

When I pursued Ji Sung-joon and persuaded him to be with me,

all he could think about was you.

Every second waiting for you will be agonizing for him.

I'm...

I'm really okay.

To be honest, I might have been lying when I said it the other day,

but now,

it's for real.

I'm really okay.

So, Hye-jin...

Just go...

and don't worry about anything else.

All right?

I won't pressure you.

Just don't run away from me.

You're the woman I now have feelings for.

Princess, did you get yourself tangled again?

Princess?

Waiting is harder...

than I thought it'd be.

I don't even have any water.

Hi, Princess.

Wait.

That scarf!

When did he stop by?

I'm not going to run away anymore.

Bye!

Wifey, come here.

Ha-ri.

I want to drop you off for the last time.

I'm going to drop you off and then sell my car.

Thanks. See you later.

Good luck selling the car.

Okay.

Hye-jin!

Yes?

Those shoes look great on you!

My Hye-jin, you're so pretty!

You're the best!

Go, Hye-jin!

Gosh.

This feels good!

Good morning!

-Have you arrived? -Good morning.

Is he here yet?

I see he's not.

Hasn't Mr. Ji come in yet?

I need his confirmation on this.

Mr. Ji and I had a meeting with the Art Department this morning

and he had another meeting afterward.

He left just moments ago.

Hye-jin, thanks for lunch.

See you.

Who wants to go in on a ladder for coffee?

Oh, thanks.

I'll see him at the office later.

Ms. Cha, here are the translations you asked.

-Oh, thank you. -Sure.

Ta-da! Coffee has arrived!

-Coffee? -Thank you.

I want iced coffee.

This one.

-Oh, take these. -Thank you.

I ran into Photographer Kang at the coffee shop.

He was meeting with Mr. Ji.

Really?

What's this? Didn't you put any syrup in mine?

Oh, I forgot.

Give it to me! I'll go and get you some sugar!

You don't have to.

Aren't you Hye-jin?

Hello, Mr. Kang.

But where's Mr. Ji?

Were you hoping to meet him?

Didn't you see him leave moments ago?

I guess I'll see him at the office later.

Yes, Mr. Ji.

A car will be ready for you at Jeju Airport.

Will you be back on the 4 p.m. flight?

Then I suppose you'll be back at the office after 6 p.m.

Yes.

Yes, I'll see you later. Have a safe trip.

My goodness!

Hye-jin, what are you doing?

Well...

No, it's nothing.

Right, he was heading to Jeju Island today.

WEATHER IN JEJU ISLAND

I hope it doesn't rain when he gets there.

I wonder if he had something to eat.

Jackson, it's time for a meeting.

She's fallen asleep.

Jackson.

If only you'd look my way.

Hye-jin, where are the documents from Jeongin Publishing we received by courier?

I took those to Mr. Ji since he wanted to look over them.

Really?

Can you get them for me?

-Sure. -Thanks.

Jeongin Publishing.

Jeongin Publishing...

If you do that, the ends will stick together.

And why are you using your mouth to put on a plaster?

Wow, this movie looks amazing.

I want to see it now.

I want to see him.

Really? You want to see the movie too?

Do you want to join the screening?

I'll be right back.

Hye-jin, where are you going?

To a good place.

Yes, Ms. Cha.

I've arrived earlier than expected.

I'll see you when I get back.

WELCOME, JI SUNG-JOON

Excuse me, are you okay?

Call an ambulance!

-Are you okay? -Someone is unconscious here.

Are you okay?

Why isn't he arriving?

He's not getting his phone.

Oh, no.

So what happened?

I'm glad it wasn't serious.

I know.

Of course he would faint considering how much he's overworked.

All right.

Poong-ho, take good care of him. Good.

Did someone faint?

Mr. Ji.

I was shocked when I heard from the hospital earlier.

He collapsed at the airport.

Why was he working so hard?

His body couldn't handle the stress.

Jackson.

Jackson, where are you going?

Taxi!

Jackson, get in.

I can't.

I have to go see Sung-joon right now.

I know. Get in.

No, wait.

Go on inside.

Mr. Kim.

It's okay. Go on.

You're going nuts out of worry.

I feel so bad for doing this to you.

You're such a nice person,

and you've been so good to me.

I've always had a great time with you.

You're...

also very good to me...

Goodness, Jackson.

You're such a softy.

Okay then.

Let's flip a coin one last time.

If it's heads, you go without turning back.

And if it's tails, you'd better get ready...

because I won't let you go.

Here we go.

Go, Jackson.

It's heads.

Mr. Kim.

Thanks...

for hesitating for me.

If you don't leave now, I may change my mind.

VIP, JI SUNG-JOON, MALE

Wow, it's Kim Hye-jin.

What brings you here?

Were you worried about me?

No.

I'm here to give you a hug.

Hye-jin.

Yes?

I don't want things to be awkward between us.

Let's not do that. It's so uncool.

It would've been nice if you had met her

from the very beginning.

What? The two of you are holding hands!

I thought you only needed to see me for ten seconds at a time.

Hello.

If you want to be in pain, do so in front of me.

I won't let you suffer alone anymore.
