Episode 7

Hey... let's go.

Fighting!

Hey! Stop charming the world to treat you kindly

- and start being nice to me. Right here. - Where?

Right here. Over here.

I'm your piece of straw now.

I'm going to turn you into Miss Korea so... right here, do it right here.

Depending on how you behave first.

Depending on how I behave...

- I'll be going. - Sure.

I'll be going.

I'll be going.

- Do whatever... - you want.

- Where are you going? - Job hunting.

I thought you were going to enter Miss Korea after the surgery?

- Did you give it up? - I said I'm job hunting.

That was a quick change of heart. Good job!

- Should I give you some allowance? - I don't need it. I'll be back.

- See you later. - Let go!

You really don't need it?

Then give it to me.

Don't you see this?

These six 20kg containers. Is this everything?

What are you trying to do?

How are we going to mix the water and oil without the emulsifier?

How many days do you think we'll be able to hold on with just this amount?

- I'm really going crazy. - I don't think it will last until tomorrow.

- Are you going to close the factory? Huh? - No!

It's Ji Young!

Come on! Say you're happy to see her and welcome her back with open arms!

Hey, Hong Sam!

I apologize for being fickle and going back and forth.

I promise not to stab you in the back again.

We didn't treat her right, either. Why are you guys acting like this?

You guys don't want to enter Miss Korea with Ji Young?

Of course we do!

But... we're not going to think you were the best like we did before.

Okay.

Goodness... anyway...

I'm not angry anymore.

You know everything that's going on now before you start, right?

We don't have money.

Because we don't have any money to buy the emulsifiers...

we're on the verge of shutting down the factory.

We're going to do everything we can to have Miss Korea wear our BB Cream

advertise the BB cream to the whole country...

and sell tons of it to save our company. That's our evil plan.

That's why, Ji Young...

we're going to have you wear a swimsuit...

put you on that stage and display you in front of the whole country.

You know that, right?

As usual, you're honest with me, Hwa Jung.

Well, I want to win just as much.

- Isn't that good for all of us? - Of course! It's good for all of us.

Of course!

- Please take care of me! - No, please take care of me.

The auditions for the Seoul preliminaries for Miss Korea will begin.

On the other hand, in the foreign exchange markets

the exchange rate has dropped to 45 won in five days...

Wow, there's a lot of people.

This is Jo Kyu Han of MBC News.

The voting of the candidates for the 15th presidential election

will officially begin in 20 days.

Hey, Ji Young. Don't freak out.

What is that above her sunglasses?

This?

Hey, Ji Young. It's all right.

Kim Suk Chul, head of the election poll committee for the ruling party...

went to greet the election administration committee...

He states that the survey of the public opinion

has not come to an agreement about the candidates.

At the same time, he is creating an advantageous condition for himself.

Jae Hee!

She's competing, too?

To save the economy, civic movements have been increasing.

Civic organizations are saying for every two dollars donated, 100 million won can be made.

However, the citizens should not be the only target to be agonizing over this crisis.

The government and companies should make adjustments to their financial affairs as well.

Ms. Kim Jae Hee.

Excuse me, I just have a question to ask.

Do you pick only one candidate for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd place for Miss Seoul?

Is this your first time?

Then did you think they were going to pick about ten girls?

Next.

Let's plan a strategy, too.

The first round... will be the measurements so all they have to do is get you measured.

On the day of the competition... Ji Young, you'll have to skip breakfast.

- Okay. - If you can, try to start on the day before.

Getting measured will be a war.

Are you guys curious about what this competition exactly demands?

Being proportionate is important when it comes to measurements.

First, the length of the face times eight, equals one's height.

Simply put, once we get there, we need to focus on making our faces smaller. Much smaller.

We need to work on how to make the face smaller.

The second measurement war... is the ratio between your chest, waist, and pelvis.

They check for a ratio of 1:0.7:1, the 'Golden Proportion'.

It means your figure has to be X-shaped.

When we go into the real thing, make sure to...

- What is it? - Excuse me?

There's a bare face inspection.

Why would they judge without any makeup?

They're going to judge with the makeup on in the final round, anyway...

Maybe they want to look at skin condition?

Isn't it impossible to be pretty without any makeup?

That's right. I guess I'll have to do a facial mask the night before.

If you look pretty bare faced, then you're really pretty.

Make the lips red, your eyelashes long, almost like you have makeup on.

For a bare face...

gold is the best.

That secret method...

is poop!

It's the swimsuit round.

Will they give the swimsuit for free?... ahead of time?

This competition is a very important one.

Don't you just need to lose a little weight?

Perhaps.

Gain some weight first.

If you look too skinny, you tend to look ugly, children.

Being slim and voluptuous where you need to be doesn't work well if you're too skinny.

It's disgusting.

In the mean time, gain some weight.

After you gain the weight, you only lose it where you need to.

If anything, when you have a swimsuit on...

if you want both legs to look straight and long... a little weight is needed.

Don't ever... try to lose weight no matter what. Understand?

- Yes. - Yes.

We're going to a buffet today!

Thank you!

Girls, let's go eat some barbecue today!

Let's go!

They're so evil!

I was trying to get some tips from them and they're talking backwards.

- They're going to a buffet to gain weight. - Buffet?

Anyway, they want us to look fat while they look all slim and skinny.

Why is that lady so selfish? Is it because she looks like a poisonous snake?

- She's a bad person. - Don't badmouth Director Ma!

- Do you still like her? Why? - If I said don't, then just don't!

She's like a mother to me.

I like Director Ma.

We're... still not reliable, right?

- You're not reliable! - Let's go!

Let's go!

Do you think you can win with numbers? Girls, let's go.

Who is that woman?

- Director Yang of Cherry salon. - Director Yang of Cherry salon?

Just look at me.

Look only at me. Even if you don't trust me.

I'll make it so you can trust me.

Hey! Where are all the other punks? What are you doing by yourself?

- I'll take it. - It's fine.

Give it! I said give it to me!

Yeah, 'aish'!

If you're going to cuss, say it all the way. What's after 'aish'?

Doctor.

If you don't know what it feels like to have your products sent back to you...

I'm begging you, get lost!

Doctor.

Doctor.

You want to go watch a movie with me?

Am I a joke to you?

Just think of it as watching a movie with a random person sitting next to you.

What?

Then... here.

You watch on your own and I'll watch on my own.

Even if we go separately, we'll still be sitting together.

That movie is about to get taken out so there's hardly anyone at the theatre.

Just ignore the seat designation and just sit wherever you want.

Well you always have this frown on your face...

Fine. Rip it, just rip it.

You're not even going to greet your own brother?

You guys are going to make Miss Korea?

They're waiting for me. I have to go.

Did you know that BaDa Cosmetics has been sponsoring the Miss Korea pageant every year?

What would be better? The preliminary round or the final round?

The committee said I could do whatever I want...

When would be a good time for me to judge for you guys?

If your brother... no, if BaDa Cosmetics is a judge, what happens to us then?

My brother knows that we're sending Ji Young out. You think he'll give us a good score?

No... but your brother won't be the only one to judge, right?

Yeah, but the organizer recommended your brother.

He'll definitely have a lot more influence than the other judges.

This is crazy.

What is it? Did something happen? - No! Not at all.

Anyway, what can we do?

Still! 'Waikiki'! Okay?

Let's go! Let's go, let's go, let's go!

You little punk! I heard you moved out!

Mom... how did you find out?

Then... where are you staying right now? Do you have a place to sleep?

Are you even changing your underwear?

Mom! I'm changing my underwear every day and I have a place to sleep. Don't worry!

Mom, don't call me until I call you and don't page me.

Mom, I'm sorry! Don't call, okay?

I'm going crazy!

Hong Sam. Here's the money for the emulsifier.

But... instead of buying the emulsifier...

let's use it to turn Ji Young into Miss Korea.

- Hey! - Hyung Joon!

I naturally thought we should use this to buy the emulsifier and keep the factory running.

Okay, so say we used this to buy the emulsifier.

But we'll need it again in several days.

That's then! We can't close the factory because we don't have the emulsifier.

I can't imagine closing the factory either.

But just trying to hold on isn't going to solve it, don't you think?

That's true. What are we going to use to turn Ji Young into Miss Korea?

- Hyung Joon! - Hey.

Should we ask Yoon to pay us in advance?

How?

Hong Sam!

- It looks pretty good! - It makes the space more lively!

- [97 Miss Korea, Let's Win!] - It really does look a lot better.

- Lift it, will you? - Be careful! Watch your arm! Your arm!

What is this? Get rid of all this, we need chairs!

It's fine! It's fine! We don't need chairs.

If you don't turn me into Miss Korea, you're dead.

If I don't turn you into Miss Korea, I'll die too, to tell you the truth.

Teacher Jung's going to die and so will all of our employees.

Today...

is the presentation meeting with the investor.

If we do well today, before the Seoul preliminaries...

we could get an advance payment from Yoon.

You're confident, right?

Let's do our best.

Should I wear a swimsuit to the meeting?

What? Hey, are you crazy? Think before you talk, brat!

Why would you wear a swimsuit in front of Yoon? Seriously, you're so frustrating!

I want to do my best, why are you getting angry?

How is that doing your best...?

I'm going to make myself very clear.

I didn't agree to do this with you because I have feelings for you again.

Miss Korea is just Miss Korea. Love?

I'm not interested in something like that. I don't have the time and it's a luxury to me.

You should let it go, too. Fold up your feelings and throw them away.

Hey, can't I do what I want with my own feelings?

Did you fold it?

Did you fold it?

- Yeah, I folded it. Are you happy? - Then put it right here.

Oh my gosh, you're so childish!

- Is that good? - Now, I'm throwing it away!

What are you doing?

Me... I'm not going to think that my body is mine anymore.

I'll do whatever you want. If you want me to starve, I'll starve. You want me to die, I'll die.

I'm going to do everything now.

If you want me to wear it, I'll wear it. If you want me to take it off, I'll take it off. It's a job.

We're just working together, that's all.

You'll save your company and I'll save myself. Sound good?

Oh my gosh, this is so childish, I swear.

It's not grand but we've prepared a solid presentation which I will begin now.

As you can see, these ladies are all the successive Miss Korea's.

Like these ladies, if Miss Oh Ji Young is elected to be Miss Korea

and becomes a big star...

not only will we get over 300 million won from advertisements...

with the effects from BB cream promotions

we can expect to see a huge increase in sales.

- Sure enough, we... - I had no idea you would be here.

I should have brought it, if I knew.

As I mentioned before, these are the past Miss Korea's.

These women have been known to be active in the advertising industry.

The bracelets, shoes, and earrings that these women wore...

As I said before...

compared to Queen and Cherry salon, there is definitely a difference with ViVi Cosmetics.

The difference is our systematic and scientific...

What's going on?

With ViVi Cosmetics' systematic and scientific program, we...

can figure out... how we can turn her into Miss Korea. With Oh Ji Young's

- personal exercise regimen. - Isn't this too fast?

- Hey! - Hey!

Hey Ji Young, are you all right?

Even though it's used you should have checked it before you bought it!

You want me to invest after showing me all this?

Well...

By putting this used neighborhood equipment in here...

you're going to turn her into Miss Korea by making her run to death...

You want me to believe that?

I'm the one that's embarrassed.

Let's pretend this whole investment never happened.

- Hey! Hey! - Forget it.

Do you really have the desire to become Miss Korea?

If you really have to enter Miss Korea...

Then you shouldn't be joining hands with these punks at a place like this.

Don't you have an eye for things? Or you should've stayed with Director Ma!

Like that beat up running machine, your life will get hurt, too.

Hey man...

don't be rude just because you have a lot of money.

I'll help you.

I said I'd become your sponsor.

- What? - Hey! Hey! Hey!

- Hey, what... - Hey! Don't!

Let go! Seriously, are you crazy!

- Be patient! Be patient! - Don't be so uncivilized.

- What? - Don't you know what a sponsor is?

Do you think all sponsors are alike?

You and even ViVi Cosmetics, isn't that some sort of a sponsorship?

This kind of sponsor... will only be a burden to you.

If you really want to become Miss Korea, then I'll help you.

Take my hand instead. Let go of Hyung Joon's hand and just look out for yourself.

Trying to save a company that's on verge of collapsing, you don't have to struggle either.

Leave... if you're not going to invest then leave!

- Yoon. - Yeah, let's leave together.

Using expensive things, calling an expensive teacher and receiving expensive things...

you know that doesn't mean you're good at studying.

But you've received expensive tutoring before?

Really, you're too good...

for these punks.

- Seriously! - Hong Sam!

- I'm comfortable here. - Let me know if you change your mind.

- Whenever. - Thanks.

Let's stop the factory.

We're really on the edge of a cliff.

At the edge of the cliff... I'm going to place Oh Ji Young there.

Ji Young's going to win it no matter what.

Ji Young...

will save us without a doubt.

I'm in.

If she doesn't place in the Seoul preliminaries

she's not even worth a single won then.

I'm sorry Kang Woo.

Why are you sorry? You're the one that put everything on the line for the company.

Okay.

Let's go.

Going down.

Going up.

I told you, you guys don't have to do this.

I think we can stop now.

Hey, you think Park Se Ri just became Park Se Ri?

Park Sae Ri's dad... hit a lot more balls... than Park Sae Ri herself.

They said he slept a lot less than her!

Originally... the person that supports has to suffer more...

they have to suffer more...

- for a star to be born! - Come on!

In order for a star to be born.

Vicious wench.

But shouldn't we know the exact measurements of your body first?

Take my measurements then.

You can't do it yourself?

For the waist, it's not the slimmest area.

You have to put both arms like this and measure the area where the elbows are.

For the butt... you see the area that sticks out the most? That needs to be measured.

Chest... what about the chest?

For the chest, the arms need to be straight from where you stand.

And you measure the area where it sticks out the most.

So I can't measure it on my own.

But Hwa Jung... went down to the country to block the the products that's been returned.

It's just the three of us.

Really?

This area needs to come out and this needs to go in... come out and go in.

Now... in the meantime let's get the exact measurements.

Next, we'll see which area needs to go in and come out.

So let's worry about that and see which areas we need to support. Okay?

Sounds good.

- So you finally brought her. - Why?

I'm just saying, punk.

- Let's get your measurements. - You're going to do it?

Why?

- Who's going to measure it? - Do we measure with clothes on?

- Then you measure with it off? - Come on!

- Can I decide? - Does it matter who it is?

Do rock, paper, scissors and see who's going to do it.

What do you mean rock, paper, scissors?

- Rock, paper, scissors! - Rock, paper, scissors!

What are you doing?

Butt out, Teacher Jung! Why are you trying to get involved?

- If we take Teacher Jung out, then I won. - Join in, Mister.

- I'm not a mister. - Join in, Jung.

- Don't call him like that! - What's wrong with you?

- Rock, paper, scissors! - Rock, paper, scissors!

- Rock, paper, scissors! - Rock, paper, scissors!

I think I'll get measured with my clothes off. That way it's accurate.

Are you crazy? Hey! Hey, do you think this is some... No! No! No!

- Get your act together! Why... - She said she wants to. Why not?

Stay out of this, Teacher Jung! You were against Miss Korea from the beginning!

Why are you suddenly trying to get involved? Seriously, you're unbelievable!

Oh Ji Young said I can join in!

At the least, I have the right of the price of that gold necklace, punk! Give me that.

Best out of three. Ji Young, it's best out of three, right? Lately everyone does that.

- Of course. - Rock, paper, scissors!

- Rock, paper, scissors! - Rock, paper, scissors!

- Rock, paper, scissors! - Rock, paper, scissors!

This is going to take all night.

- Rock, paper, scissors! - When will Hwa Jung get here?

- Rock, paper, scissors! - Rock, paper, scissors!

In this economic crisis, it seems to shrivel the country's beauty as well.

Because of the IMF, companies' funds have been dropping.

This year's Miss Korea competition is at the risk of dissipating.

Reporter Lee Dong Myung has the report.

Due to the IMF, it is also effecting the annual Miss Korea competition.

Since 1957, there have been no cancellations whatsoever.

The sponsors for Miss Korea has suddenly been expressing difficulties in supporting.

The competition is at risk of not being held.

It is unclear whether or not this competition will happen.

It's been a while since I've worked out. I'm starving.

Did you hear? The Miss Korea competition might be canceled!

What?

Push straight up to the butt!

Push.

If it hurts, let it out.

- Just like that. - Director we're in trouble!

The committee has called and said the competition might get canceled.

The Seoul preliminaries is just around the corner. Does that make sense?

Since the companies have been canceling their sponsorships

they say 700 million won has been taken out.

- Ma'am! - What?

Use your influence! Does it make sense to skip the competition?

How are we going to run our business next year?

True, since last year's Miss Korea came from your salon, it might be hard for you.

- For us, it's not a big deal. - Oh my gosh.

Ever since we took the crown from you last year

I know that your sales have decreased in half!

- Were the decreased sales your fault? - And if it's not?

It's the IMF's fault, why would it be yours?

Why? If I thought it was your fault, did you think I would resent you?

Yes! Of course you should. Your decreased sales were strictly my fault, ma'am.

Everything's the IMF's fault, everything.

Honestly, don't our customers have nothing to do with the IMF?

Sure. The Japanese invasion was your fault and the Korean War was your fault.

Every catastrophe in Korea was your fault.

- Happy now? - Oh my gosh, you're at it again.

- Vice President! - Vice President!

Oh my gosh, Director! Just a moment!

Wait! Wait!

- What do you mean cancellation? - I have nothing to say.

Hyung Joon!

We have to do this! We have to do this no matter what!

Vice President Seo! What are they talking about?

- This is a very frustrating situation. - So are we! We're frustrated too!

Wasn't money what you wanted?

If you were going to steal, you should've stolen the chemical analysis table as well.

If you don't get the money from ViVi by the end of the year...

Kim Hyung Joon... is going to stamp his death benefits...

and go into the after life.

Let's see the money first.

It's an unsigned check but it's equal to cash.

Now then... shall we check the documents?

Are you trying to raise the amount of money?

What?

This isn't BB cream but just a regular facial cream analysis.

Do you think I'm an idiot to fall for fake documents?

It's fake?

Did you just get fooled by the ViVi team?

You didn't tattle on me, did you?

Leave the sample.

Is this what you're looking for?

You guys...

seriously...

hand over the BB sample.

Give us our sample.

I said hand it over!

Why is nothing working out for us?

What are we going to do if the competition won't be held?

Age wise, this year is my last chance!

Why won't it be held?

Crazy bastard!

Son of a bitch!

Where are you going, you bastard!

That's right. I did it.

So I could catch you in action...

instead of the BB cream, I placed a fake facial cream chemical analysis table...

I left it there on purpose.

Good job.

To them... they think saving the company is by winning the Miss Korea competition.

I just believe that we can save our company honestly.

I still believe in it and because I'm confident in it!

My product... all I can think about is protecting it.

Whether you have five counts of crime or even six! It doesn't matter at all!

I know.

Who is it that wants our product?

Yoori Ana?

BaDa?

How much are they going to give you?

300 million won? 500 million won?

You didn't stupidly hand over a product that's going to be worth 10 to 20 billion...

at a dirt-cheap price like that, right?

Let's just go see a movie.

Director! Do something! Don't you know of a place where you can bring money in?

You know a lot of people that have money.

The people that you know have a lot of influence!

What is wrong with you?

I already spent so much money that if this continues, I'll have to close the salon!

Please! I'm begging you! Save us!

Ma'am... from now on I promise to be good to you. I won't ever be rude again!

I promise to live as your shadow! I won't get involved, okay?

- Chun Ja. - Yes, ma'am?

Move your hand.

Even if it wasn't you...

I have to enter this competition no matter what as well.

Even if it has to be for my sake. I'm going to make sure that this competition continues.

So... stop whining and go home and sleep!

You mean it?

I don't have to worry?

I'll trust only you, ma'am.

Okay, sure.

Ma'am! Shall we go somewhere and have some soju and pig skin?

I think I'll be too nervous to sleep.

I know you fall asleep instantly as soon as you lay your head down, okay?

Let's go, ma'am!

Let go!

Why are you acting this way? You're the one who taught me about pig skins. Let's go!

- Secretary Yoon! - Let's go!

Yes, this is Kim Kang Shik.

What are we going to do?

It's too early to give up.

The committee said... they'll do everything they can to have it continue.

I don't even have a place to apply for a job.

Is Miss Korea... like a job exam to you?

Ji Young.

Don't put on that kind of expression.

You're face is going to sag so just think happy thoughts.

There has to be happy things to think happy thoughts.

Then... is there anything from yesterday, no... the past that you can think about?

In the past?

When... were you the happiest?

Happy?

- A little while ago, in the afternoon. - Today?

When you got angry when I said I would wear a swimsuit to the investment meeting.

Really?

See? Since you're thinking happy thoughts, your whole face is lighting up!

Hey, more. Think of more happy thoughts.

- More? - Yeah.

- More... - Is there anything else that I did?

Nothing else?

Calling my name.

When I was on the operating table...

when you called my name, it sounded so tender.

You were screaming my name but strangely, it sounded warm to me.

Do you like it that much when I call your name?

The sound of your voice when you call my name... I like it.

'Ji Young'... like that?

Hey, Oh Ji Young.

Oh Ji Young!

You like all of it?

- Are you a pervert? - Why?

You said you hated me but you like it when I call your name?

Hey, Ji Young.

Listening to the sound of your voice is making me sleepy.

How weird. If I'm nervous about something, I get insomnia.

I'm never able to get any sleep and just stay up all night.

Then... should we go to bed?

That way, your skin looks good. You have to get enough sleep.

A little while ago... you picked up what you threw away, didn't you?

Are my feelings trash?

How could you put in the trash, you brat?

Hey, can't I just like you on my own?

Our relationship is like a beer can that's already been drunk.

All you have to do is throw it away.

You certainly have a way with words.

Be careful.

Today was a long day.

Ji Young.

- Oh Ji Young. - What?

Ji Young.

Smile. Your face is going to sag.

- 'Waikiki'. - That 'Waikiki'... I swear.

I hear the Miss Korea pageant might be canceled because of financial problems.

Ah, yes.

I'm not saying this because I'm head of the election poll of the ruling party.

But as a citizen of this country, it just seems a waste to have it canceled.

Also, with media spewing all over the place like the country is going to fall apart...

don't you think the citizens' worries will just get bigger?

Just because it's the IMF. If the annual competition isn't held...

they're going to think that the economy is really bad.

At times like these, the citizens should watch the Miss Korea pageant

and be able to forget about their problems and get some hope and comfort.

That's what should happen.

We feel that it's a shame that the pageant will be getting canceled as well.

Director Kim is it?

Yes, sir.

Still, BaDa Cosmetics is the number one company in the makeup industry.

Shouldn't you be getting involved in this difficult time?

Once the election is over, I'll take care of you so please take care of it.

Is there a different road to patriotism?

Please, eat. The noodles at this restaurant are very good.

Ah, Ji Young.

Last night, a man named Lee Yoon came to give this to you but you came late so he just left.

- Lee Yoon? - Open it.

- It's a cell phone. - It's a cell phone.

Hey that's the latest model! That's really expensive!

Who is Lee Yoon?

He used to like me back in the day.

Goodness, it folds in half.

- Oh goodness! It's so small, Father! - That's because it's the latest model!

- Call him. - It's bothersome.

- Call him, Ji Young. - Call him, call him.

Then the rich guy that bought you this phone has feelings for you again?

- Are you calling our home right now? - I think so.

- Someone answer it. - Okay.

Hello?

You want this?

- Hey! - Why?

That's amazing.

How neat.

Thank you so much! Thanks to you, we're able to avoid canceling the competition.

I don't know how I can repay this kindness.

- Then, can I ask for a favor? - Yes, of course!

As the main sponsor, I would like to use the final candidates as our models.

We have a new product that we'll be launching soon.

Ah, of course!

Being a model for BaDa Cosmetics, what candidate would reject that?

But...

among the contestants, there's a candidate that we don't like very much.

Excuse me?

There's a contestant named Oh Ji Young whom a small company called ViVi is supporting.

If by chance, that contestant enters the final round

and she chooses to be their model instead of BaDa...

From our standpoint...

do you understand what I'm trying to say?

- Hey! - Did you hear? Did you hear?

- Hey, should we train really hard today? - Should we, guys?

- Here! - Okay!

- Me, too. - I don't have money.

- You don't have any money? - Nope. It's fine, I don't need it.

- Let's drink water. - Sounds good!

Hwa Jung!

Did you hear?

- What is this? - Why?

Hey... hey... what is this?

What is this?

- Why... did this break? - Hwa Jung.

Teacher Jung broke the camera.

But... why didn't Hwa Jung say anything about it?

- You think she was threatened? - This is something we can't wait around for.

When Teacher Jung comes, we need to confirm it.

Give us back our sample. Where is it? We know that you're the one that took it.

Unless you want us to report you to the police, let's end it nicely.

- Let go. - I said hand it over!

- Hand it over. - I said hand it over!

I said let go of me!

Call the police! Call them!

Didn't you want to be loved?

There are people who just watch.

You're talking nonsense.

You don't have the courage to take away a man from your friend.

Completely forget it.

You're being a bit harsh.

Because of needless emotions, you can miss out on true love.

Are you saying that because you met someone new?

Why can't you forget about the woman you broke up with?

- I'm not talking about myself right now. - Don't avoid the question.

I already have five counts on my record, another one's not a big deal.

Whether it's five or ten, I'm not scared at all.

Go ahead and report it.

In exchange... that sample... you won't ever get it again.

I'm... a creditor that came to collect your debt.

I'm not your neighborhood buddy.

If you guys turn Oh Ji Young into Miss Korea and get the investment then that's great.

And I would return that sample to you!

But if Oh Ji Young doesn't become Miss Korea...

that sample... is going to be handed over to another company.

So our sample is like a retainer and hostage to you.

Even if I have to go to jail...

I'm going to get that money from you guys somehow and then I'll go to jail.

So... make sure... to do what you can...

and turn Oh Ji Young into Miss Korea.

You can keep that promise, right?

That you'll return it to us if we can turn her into Miss Korea.

Until that happens... don't hand it over to anyone.

I'm not a bastard that repeats his words twice.

So don't touch our retainer, you bastard!

Because we'll make sure to get it back.

Are you...

human?

Are you human?

If by chance you came... I'm sorry.

I realized I dared to be presumptuous towards you so I turned back.

That's what thugs are, I guess.

I was wrong.

Let's pretend it never happened.

Hey what's wrong with everyone? What's with the mood? Hey!

Think of the risk as an opportunity.

And let's think only happy thoughts.

Hey! I came up with a great idea!

- What? - We're on the edge and we don't have time.

- Yeah, Hong Sam. - Hong Sam?

Yeah, Hong Sam.

See? Calling me by name like that is making me feel good!

It's in these little things that you find happiness.

This... instead of talking, I'll show you a demonstration.

Instead of a massage or whatever... the effects of this are great!

There's something like that?

Now...

- What are you doing right now? - The harder you hit, the better the effect.

It creates firmness... and by making your face smaller... this is the best way.

At first, it hurts... but if you think that your face is getting smaller and smaller...

it doesn't hurt that much.

Give it a try. Hey, Ji Young got scared! Let's all do it together.

Punk! You feel better, right? This is the best method of making your face smaller.

Try it, Ji Young. The more painful it is, just think of your face getting smaller.

It's getting a little smaller... hey, Ji Young, whatever we do, it can't be mediocre.

Just be calm... and do your best.

Now... harder!

Just like that! Just like that!

- Hey, hurry up and do it. - Come on, you guys too!

It's effective?

Now... harder! Exactly. You're doing great Ji Young! You too, guys! A little harder!

One, two, three!

But... by doing this, my face will get smaller, right Hong Sam?

I just read it in a medical book. A medical book.

To hit harder, loosen up your hand and do it like this.

How much harder? Just what in the world...

Your face is getting smaller! Just think that it's getting smaller.

- Everything is ready, Director. - What's the degree of purity?

99.9 percent. 24 karats.

Gold will take the swelling out and make your face smaller.

Even Cleopatra used this secret method.

People are busy collecting gold in this IMF crisis.

You might think, 'What am I doing this with precious gold?'

But in three days, you'll know why.

This isn't just spending money like water but a meaningful investment.

So, you put the soccer ball right beneath the stomach.

By lying over it, it stimulates constipation and makes the stomach slimmer.

And from the top, you press down firmly.

I'm going to press down hard. Hold on.

Here we go.

- That really hurts! - It hurts?

- Does it really hurt? - Should I stop?

No! More! Do it more.

- It looks like it's going to come out. - Get off!

Strength to your butt! Strength to you butt!

This blue swimsuit is an icon for Miss Korea.

In the swimsuit competition, the judges will be looking at your legs the most.

Now, have your thighs touch together and make sure your calves are as close as possible. Yes!

Strength to your butt! Strength to you butt!

If you put strength to your butt, the lower stomach and your thighs will tighten.

And both thighs will come together making you straight and tall.

Also your calves will come together making you straight and tall!

Also... your butt will go up like crazy! Got it?

- Yes! - Yes!

Now then, let's do it again. Strength to your butt!

When you poop, sometimes it doesn't cut off right?

Think of yourself cutting that and... strength to your butt!

Now all together... cut it!

Hey, should I find out what kind of methods Director Yang from Cherry salon uses?

If Director Ma and Director Yang both use the same methods, isn't that a good thing?

And what if Ji Young's body falls apart?

We have to work twice as hard than anyone!

Just kill me why don't you.

Hey at the competition, you have to be judged every day with that lion's hair...

I can't imagine how Ji Young will look with that kind of hair.

What? Lion's hair? What is that?

Should we ask the neighborhood salon to give it a try?

Not anyone can do that.

Really?

Let's go.

Where?

Follow me.

- Where are you going? - Where are you going?

My rival and competition came to learn from me?

Yes.

- Rival? - Yes.

- Competition? - Yes.

Still, instead of going to Cherry salon that made last year's Miss Korea, we came here.

Who in Korea... can do a better Lion's hair than you? There isn't.

Please show us, just this once.

Then we'll practice very hard and enter the competition.

The infamous Lion's hair... show us what it looks like, Director Ma. Please.

I'm sorry, Director. Please touch my hair just this once.

I really want a Lion's hair by you, Director Ma.

Please.

Does that make sense, Director? I'll kick them out for you.

Blow dryer.

Do you know why all the Miss Korea's get Lion's hair?

- I'm not sure. - It's just an act to look good on stage.

We know that much, too.

The Lion's hair gives volume and makes your face look very small.

- Comb. - Comb.

Look.

If you fluff your hair like this...

doesn't it create volume?

Then on the stage it will make your face look as small as a fist.

And you'll look a lot taller.

It's very effective in making you look well proportioned.

- Hairspray. - Hairspray.

Also, back in the days when everyone was poor, this represented wealth.

Look, now that your hair is rich in volume, don't you look much more elegant and refined?

Now... you've finally become one of the lions.

The Miss Korea pageant is like a dangerous jungle.

Where the weak gets eaten and only the strong survives. That's the law of the jungle.

Do you want to be a lion, the king of the jungle...

or a hyena that eats leftover carcasses?

Hey Ji Young, turn around once.

Wait.

Did you ask for the hair five minutes before the final round?

- Yes. - I'll properly show you what it looks like.

Hey... Ji Young!

- President Kim, is it? - Ah, yes.

Five minutes before the final round.

Try to make Ji Young look like this and put her on the stage.

This is what a 97' Miss Korea looks like.

Ever since I became the 19th Miss Korea...

I've only lived thinking about Miss Korea.

This is my production.

Oh Ji Young's present image. Just because you've seen it and heard it...

could it be done the same?

Will it be easy to imitate?

I will do it no matter what.

A girl that could've become Miss Korea in my care and not turning her into a hyena...

I sincerely hope so.
