Ms. Ha, we have a fridge full of ice cream.
A coffee machine and massage chair too.
Ms. Ha, there's crazy news.
Check the online notice board.
- What's the fuss about?
- Quick. Check this out.
(Personnel Appointment Notice)
(Seo Ju Won, AL CARD Director)
Seriously, what should I do?
He came back before it even hit me that we'd ended things.
He was my junior colleague, but he's back as a director.
He was my boyfriend, but he's now my ex-boyfriend.
(Cinderella at 2AM)
Where did you get such cute slippers?
I'm glad you think they're cute.
Why do you keep staring at me like that?
Because you're so pretty.
- What?
- What?
Did I say that out loud just now?
Well, what I meant was
It's not a sudden thing.
I've always thought that No, sorry.
Today,
you look very pretty.
What's with you, Ju Won? You're very funny.
I wasn't trying to be funny.
I really meant it.
I'm sorry to disappoint you,
but younger guys aren't my type.
Older women aren't my type either.
- What?
- I don't like older women.
I like pretty women.
I'm sorry if I made you uncomfortable.
I'll be careful from now on.
What was that? Why did he say that?
Thank you.
Bye, then.
It took me a while to persuade my mother
to let me stay instead of transferring me abroad.
Why did you do that?
This makes it uncomfortable for both of us.
Not for me.
I can't help it if you want to break up with me.
You have free will.
But
I'm also free to cling to you.
From now on
I'll cling to you.
I'll act as desperate and pitifully as possible.
Don't be too mean, Yoon Seo.
Sir.
The vice chairman is waiting for you.
Okay, let's go.
I'll see you later.
You must all be very surprised.
I'm sorry I couldn't tell you.
No. Don't be sorry, sir. You must've had a reason.
Yes, absolutely.
We apologize for being foolish enough not to recognize you.
You must've been flustered when I didn't show up for over a week.
Thank you for being so understanding.
My gosh. Please.
Ju Won.
I mean, sir.
Young Master! You can take a vacation
whenever you need to.
When we heard you were on vacation, we thought
"Right, he definitely needs to rest and recuperate."
We deeply understood why you needed a vacation.
"Sir?" "Young Master?"
Please don't be uncomfortable around me.
Just relax and teach me the things I need to know, like the old days.
I got you some coffee.
This is for you, Mr. Bae.
- And for you.
- Thank you.
Oh. You don't need to do this anymore.
Mr. Bae, I know you don't like it when it's too hot.
I made sure to get two sleeves for yours.
Two sleeves?
That's right! Mr. Bae always
yelled at you for only getting one sleeve for his hot coffee, right?
Hey, Ye Young. When did I yell at him?
I never yelled at him. It's just that I always look
like I'm yelling because of my angry face.
I swear, it's a misunderstanding.
And this is for you, Ms. Ha.
Thank you.
Anyway, what brings you here, Director Seo?
You no longer need to come here. Am I wrong?
My goodness. Don't be so mean.
All right, let's go.
Would you allow me to escort you to your office?
This is
my office.
What? How could it be your office?
We renovated it over the weekend.
(Headquarters Director Seo Ju Won)
- What? Why would you use that room?
- My gosh.
I mean, you could get a nicer office.
This is where I want to be.
I've learned so much from all of you,
and I wish to learn more from you.
So, I figured it'd be best to stay close to you,
which is why I turned that room into my office.
They say out of sight becomes out of mind.
I don't want us to drift apart.
All right, then. Let's get to work.
Yes, sir.
(Headquarters Director Seo Ju Won)
What is going on?
It's shocking enough to learn that the newbie was
the chairwoman's youngest son and the vice chairman's brother.
And his office is right here? Is this really happening?
There are so many empty rooms in the building.
Why did he have to turn that room into his office?
My point, exactly!
Hold on.
Maybe there's someone he wants to see on our team.
Someone he wants to see all the time
to make them uncomfortable.
What? Why would Ju Won
I mean, why would Director Seo want to make me uncomfortable?
What did I even do?
Right, you didn't really do much.
You just made him run coffee errands,
picked on him for being a slow learner,
complained that the company didn't care about the employees' welfare,
and criticized his hairstyle and his looks.
My gosh.
I'll just hand in my resignation.
You should've known when to stop.
Oh, no.
It looks like Ms. Ha is about to hand in her resignation, not me.
What? Why would she quit?
I mean, think about it.
She had to work very hard
to beat her peers and land that promotion so quickly,
whereas he suddenly landed
the director role, thanks to his parents.
It must make her so angry.
- You think so?
- Yes, for sure.
(Headquarters Director Seo Ju Won)
What is going on?
What are you doing here? What do you mean you'll cling to me?
And what do you mean you had to persuade the chairwoman?
Didn't I explain everything earlier?
Why are you acting like you don't get it?
Your mother clearly told me that you'd be
transferred abroad if I broke up with you.
Right, that was her plan.
But I persuaded her to transfer me to this office.
She was actually persuaded?
I told her
that you broke up with me without telling me why.
My brother would get in trouble if I told her he'd given me a heads-up.
And I figured that'd get you in trouble too.
I told her the breakup was too sudden
and that I needed some time to get over it.
I told her that I'd probably
go out drinking every day and ruin everything
at the overseas branch if I were transferred there now.
What?
Then I presented the vision I'd been working on
while assisting such a competent manager.
AL CARD is number two in the industry at the moment.
I told her I'd make it number 1 in 2 years.
I said she could transfer me overseas if I failed.
In just two years? Is that even possible?
I must make it happen.
If my mother wants
to expand the business through an arranged marriage,
I must prove to her that I can do it with my own abilities alone.
That way, I can stay with you.
Have you no pride?
I took the money on the condition that I'd break up with you.
I've always known about your love for money.
Who says I love money?
You were excited to work late to receive overtime pay
and volunteered to work on the weekend to get the bonus.
That was
I was only doing my duty as a hardworking employee
In any case, I gave her my word
that I would break up with you.
And you did.
You kept your promise.
So, we can just date again, right?
(Headquarters Director Seo Ju Won)
You didn't promise her you'd never get back together with me, right?
Well, that's
Hold on.
Why do you keep talking so casually to me?
The truth is,
I couldn't figure out what I could do to win you back,
so I looked it up.
And I read that the best thing would be
to show you something you never saw when we were together.
I also read that it makes women's hearts flutter
when they hear a younger man talk casually to them, Yoon Seo.
And I read that this would make a woman's heart flutter too.
You're adorable, Yoon Seo.
Hey, what are you doing?
- Gosh.
- What? You're so adorable.
Hey!
- Why Gosh! What?
- You're cute.
Those two What was that just now?
No way. Are they
How am I going to explain this?
I mean, they saw that. There's no way out of this.
Well, about that earlier
It's okay.
You don't need to tell us. We get it.
- What?
- But honestly, we feel betrayed.
How could he do that to intimidate you?
Sorry? "Intimidate me?"
Yes! What he did earlier. He went like this.
Now that he has a director title, he had to act like
he adored you as if you were his pet dog or something.
He had to treat you like you worked under him.
That's totally why he petted you like that.
- Well, that was
- Gosh, totally.
I didn't think he'd be like this.
He scares me. He really does!
- That's not what happened.
- That's exactly what happened.
You don't need to lie to us to save your pride.
My gosh. You must be so upset.
Someone you used to manage is now the headquarters director.
You went in there to have a word with him
and ended up letting him gain the upper hand.
If we don't understand how you feel, who will?
- No, that's not what happened.
- Oh, please.
Hold on, actually
Is it better that they believe this?
But if you really think about it,
it's not a bad thing.
He renovated the library to stay close to us,
which means he has fond memories of the time we spent together.
Being on good terms with the owner's family won't harm us in any way.
In a way, we could benefit greatly from it.
That's true, but
But how's it possible
that he didn't look like a rich heir at all?
What? Why not?
Maybe not the heir part, but I knew he was rich.
He always had this air of luxury about him, you know.
He was always dressed in designer clothes.
Really? There wasn't a single logo,
so I thought they were all cheap clothes.
My goodness.
People who are truly wealthy avoid brands with obvious logos.
Those who can only splurge once in a blue moon
are the ones who buy clothes with huge logos.
My gosh.
And come to think of it,
I noticed something at the convenience store too.
Buy-1-get-1-free
Let's see.
Which one should I get?
Ju Won! That's part of the buy-1-get-1-free deal.
I only need one.
What?
He can get another one for free but doesn't want it?
What is he, a rich heir?
That day, I bad-mouthed him like that.
Little did I know, he was actually a rich heir!
Also
My gosh!
Oh, you said
you couldn't attend Mr. Oh's wedding because of a meeting.
I'll make sure he gets your cash gift.
Thank you.
This is my first time doing this. How much do people normally give?
Normally, five bills would do for a colleague's wedding.
Five?
Here's 500 dollars.
What? I didn't mean 500 dollars.
By 5 bills, I meant 50 dollars.
Fifty dollars?
Let's be honest. Being cool with spending 500 dollars
as a wedding gift for a colleague
No! Even just the fact that he had 500 dollars in his wallet.
It's unreal, you know?
Let's see.
Look. Three dollars.
This is most people's reality.
But three dollars is too little.
Give it back. It's for those fish-shaped buns.
Anyway, when Ju Won first joined the company, I thought he was crazy.
I always wondered, "What is he trying to pull here?"
But looking back,
it was all because his family owns the company!
I should've observed him more carefully.
I can't believe I had no idea.
Ms. Ha. You didn't know either, right?
Oh, well
I understand you're all confused, but nothing's changing.
All you have to do is keep up the good work.
I know you're uncomfortable because Director Seo's office is so close,
but you'll actually see him less often now.
- Okay.
- Well understood.
A team dinner?
Yes. I made you uncomfortable, although I never intended to.
We're working late today, and you're stepping out for dinner,
so I want to buy you a nice meal.
How about some beef?
No, that's okay. We're going to have ox bone soup.
You prefer ox bone soup, right?
Oh, come on.
That was before Director Seo offered to buy us beef.
That's right.
Compared to beef, ox bone soup is like
It's like drinking the water after washing a cow's feet.
We would much prefer to eat beef, obviously.
Oh, I heard the Hanwoo beef place across the street was very good.
How about that restaurant, Director Seo?
I'm fine with anything. Shall we go, then?
Yes, let's go.
Count me out, then.
I'll just stay here and go through the reports.
Oh, come on. Must you make everyone so uncomfortable?
You're not one of those bosses who always order jjajangmyeon.
We can't go and eat without you if you stay here.
Let's just go. Please.
Yes, let's go!
We'll eat quickly and get the work done.
- Let's go, okay? Come on.
- But
- Let's go!
- But it's Let me talk.
- I really am not hungry.
- My gosh! Let's go!
Let's go and have some beef! Come on!
I'm so excited today.
If I could have just one soju bomb,
- I'd be even more excited.
- Oh, my.
What? Soju bomb?
We have to go back to the office for our meeting.
Obviously, I was just joking.
We've been working late for several days
to get ready for our presentation.
It was just a joke.
I wouldn't actually drink.
Well, how about we all have a drink since we're already here
and postpone the presentation?
What? Postpone the presentation
just so we could have a drink? Does that make sense to you?
Well, it's not that.
I read the reports and saw that you still had a long way to go.
We still have a long way to go?
How so? Do you care to be a little more specific?
I just think you need more time.
You weren't given enough time to begin with,
and I suddenly left the team,
so you're understaffed now.
I just meant that you'd give a perfect presentation
if you had one more week.
Well, that's true. Ms. Ha, you said
we'd do an even better job if we had just a few more days.
Yes, totally.
That is true, but
All right. Today,
we'll have a drink so we can bond even more as a team.
And we'll work even harder starting tomorrow.
Yes!
Excuse me!
Could we get a bottle of beer and soju as well?
Four servings of prime ribeye too!
This is so good.
My gosh. Eat up.
- Ju Won! Oh.
- My goodness.
- Director Seo.
- Yes, Director Seo.
I'm sorry for everything.
Please don't fire me, okay?
My gosh. Why would I fire you? Don't say that.
Get home safely.
My goodness.
I'll go with him. We're going the same way.
- Yes, you should.
- All right.
Promise? Promise me that you won't fire me.
Promise
Yes, I promise. You have my word.
Goodness, he promised. Can we please go home now?
- Get home safely!
- Okay. Bye.
Excuse me.
Why are you following me, Director Seo?
I wasn't following you. I was going to the office too.
Don't lie. You were following me.
No, I wasn't.
You didn't drink so you could go to the office
and finish up work too, right?
Same goes for me.
I have a lot to look over.
I only had one glass of beer.
Then, I have a lot of work to do. I'll be going.
(Headquarters Director Seo Ju Won)
I thought he'd leave
if I acted like I wasn't interested in him anymore.
I thought that he'd accept the situation
if I told him I had even accepted money.
(I can't let you go, Ha Yoon Seo.)
(This is a declaration of war.)
(I can't let you go, Ha Yoon Seo.)
(I can't let you go, Ha Yoon Seo. This is a declaration of war.)
(I can't let you go, Ha Yoon Seo. This is a declaration of war.)
(I can't let you go, Ha Yoon Seo.)
(This is a declaration of war.)
And after that day,
just as Ju Won meant with his declaration of war,
he began flirting with incredible intensity.
What shall I have for lunch today?
How about crispy pork cutlet?
Gosh, pork cutlet sounds great.
Director Seo.
Will you eat with us?
Let's go and have crispy pork cutlet.
Then, will you be joining us for lunch from now on, Mr. Seo?
Yes.
It's become a habit as I've eaten with everyone since starting work.
And most of all,
I like eating together.
Me too.
I'll be going first.
Could you ring me up, please?
Yes, just a moment.
Okay.
What? Why are you doing this?
Sorry. I thought I was grabbing candy.
Candy? As if.
You can't do this at work!
We're not at work.
We're at a restaurant.
You must be insane!
You must be going home. Please give me a ride.
You should give it a rest.
You can't keep flirting with me like this at work!
Then, can I flirt with you outside of work?
Are you okay?
I'm not okay. Let's date.
What does getting your foot stuck have to do with us dating again?
Let's date.
Gosh, I'm hungry. Buy me food.
Why would a rich guy ask me to buy him food?
Then, should the rich guy buy you food?
Forget it. Why would we eat together?
What's there between us?
We're broken up.
If you know that, just keep going on your way, Director Seo Ju Won.
You are obligated to buy me food.
I've done a rough count,
and I bought you food more times while we were dating.
About 27 times more.
What's that?
What's with the subtly precise number?
Do you have proof?
I do.
My photo album.
I took pictures of everything we ate and did while we dated.
And you can get a rough estimate
by looking through my credit card statement.
I'm off.
Who's the one who said we should be exact when it comes to money?
You have loads of money. You should just let that much slide.
You have lots of money too. The money you got from my Mother.
Buy me food with that.
I will use that money later on bit by bit.
I won't use a single cent of that on you, Director Seo.
Gosh, see? You like money.
That's why I'm perfect for you.
If you're with me, you get money and me.
It's "Buy-1-get-1-free."
That's not how "Buy-1-get-1-free" deals work!
Stop following me.
She really left.
Are you sure you're okay?
Maybe I shouldn't have told you.
Sometimes, it's better not to know.
No.
Thanks for telling me everything.
By the way, I knew you'd try to keep Yoon Seo by your side,
but I didn't know you'd even refuse to go abroad.
You've never gone against Mother's words before.
She hasn't made me an offer that I wanted to go against before.
Hey, Alberto! Get out of there.
Why, that little
Gosh, Si Won. Why are you dressed like that?
Who cares? It's just me here.
Hey, Ju Won. Do you know when I thought
having an arranged marriage was a good idea?
- Do I have to know?
- It's right now.
I've never had freedom like this in my entire life.
Mi Jin went to France as soon as we got married,
and I started living alone.
But, you know Gosh.
All my life, I've had to mind other people's eyes on me,
having to dress properly even at home and minding my manners.
But all of that has gone away.
It's so comfortable!
I don't know how I put up with such a stuffy life before.
Right. Congratulations.
I'll be going.
Are you leaving already?
But why?
Hey, you must be feeling upset.
Stay for another drink.
Why? Don't you feel like drinking?
Or do you want to watch a movie?
You know, I made my own little movie theatre recently
so I can watch romantic movies and cry as much as I want to.
Oh, right. You don't like movies.
That's not true. Watching movies has become my hobby lately.
What? I thought you didn't like theatres
because they were dark and stuffy.
You said it felt stifling to keep staring at the screen.
I did, but I've been watching movies often lately with Yoon Seo,
and it was all right.
Yoon Seo really likes horror movies.
- Horror movies?
- Yes.
Didn't you particularly hate horror movies more than others?
Ju Won tried really hard.
It's easy to say,
but it's hard to actually cling to someone who wants to break up.
Hey, it's hard for me too.
You should be worrying about me. I'm your friend.
I'm saying this because I'm your friend.
To be honest, who cares if his mother opposes you?
Right, how could everyone in the world accept you?
That's not it.
Yoon Seo, if you look up our business
It's not our business.
It's my business.
Anyway, if you look up Ms. Yi Rae's business,
there are these things called ratings.
But some guys leave a one-star rating.
Some other guys leave five-star ratings.
They had the same food and the same makgeolli.
That's what life is like.
So what if your future mother-in-law gave you a one-star rating?
Our young master Ju Won says "Five stars."
That's the rating he'll give you.
How could you satisfy everyone in life?
That's what I'm saying.
It's very common for your future spouse's parents
to oppose you.
Right. I mean,
your parents could oppose a rich son-in-law too.
Watch what you say. Yoon Seo doesn't have any parents.
Oh, right.
Oh, yes? Did you need something?
I'll be right there.
How dare you talk back?
I told you to hurry up and go buy some liquor!
Hey, will you come to your senses
after another beating?
Get going!
Yul, give that to me. Mommy will carry it.
I'm going to carry it. It's not heavy.
People will badmouth me if a little girl carries liquor.
Your dad is putting us through this hassle
because he wants some soju.
Let's get going.
Did you catch a cold?
Yes, I think it's because I stood in the cold for a while last night.
Gosh, had I known, I would've made some soup.
It would've been nice and warm to put rice in it.
Why? Was it not enough
that you made a nice, warm mess out of your midterms too?
Gosh, seriously.
You should either cough or nag.
Just do one at a time, will you?
Eat up.
The more I think about it, the more annoying it is.
Does that Wimp not even have a car?
Why is he making my sister walk around in the cold?
"Wimp?"
He's my sister's boyfriend. I don't like him.
Gosh, he's so annoying.
Then, should we cut school and go to the arcade to blow off some steam?
Forget it. I won't cut school.
Why not?
You never study.
Why do you never skip a single class?
My sister said never to skip class more than anything else.
I mean, I don't even pay attention in class.
Gosh, this little punk!
Carry around some more cash. Are you a beggar?
Next time, bring some more.
What are friends for?
We can lend each other money when the other one needs it.
At first, they started doing that as a joke.
But things are getting worse these days.
I know. Are those jerks still doing that?
You should stop them.
Still, they listen to what you say.
We need money.
We need money.
Answer me.
Answer me.
- What use is that?
- "Yes!"
- Let's go.
- Why won't you answer me?
One moment.
The doors are closing.
The doors are closing.
He said he heard from his brother.
That means he knows all about how I accepted money.
And that I coldly dumped Ju Won.
Gosh, this is so uncomfortable.
It's rather cold today.
Yes, the temperature has suddenly dropped.
Ju Won is giving you a hard time these days, right?
Pardon?
That kid can be unpredictable sometimes.
So, he sometimes surprises the people around him.
But all of that is so adorable, which drives you crazy.
- Right?
- Yes.
No!
"Yes, no?"
I'm not feeling so great right now.
It was a slip of the tongue.
And my relationship with your brother is already over.
So,
please refrain from talking about such things with me at work.
Yes, I understand.
I was simply trying to provide you with information.
"Provide me with information?"
Ju Won
He's a man of conviction and rather stubborn.
No one can stop him.
So, I'm telling you it won't be easy to win against Ju Won.
At times, he can be more decisive than I am.
But that kid has met someone he likes this much.
I just thought he wouldn't give up so easily.
Actually,
I was a bit surprised after hearing him talk about movies.
He used to hate movies,
but I heard you made him enjoy watching them.
I found that fascinating.
What?
Going down.
The doors are closing.
Seo Ju Won doesn't like watching movies?
Here's your popcorn.
It was normal for us to go out for dinner and a movie.
If there was a movie I liked,
we'd even watch it several times over.
Sweetie.
"The Exorcist" is reopening in theatres today.
Should we go watch it today?
Yes.
He knew about new releases better than I did.
But he didn't like watching movies?
- You're here.
- Hello.
(Headquarters Director Seo Ju Won)
Then, what does Ju Won like if not movies?
Opera.
Did we ever watch anything like the opera before?
- Sweetie.
- Yes?
Shall we go see an opera next week?
No.
Okay.
Right.
He did say that once.
And he never mentioned a word about the opera after that.
Seo Ju Won.
How much worse are you trying to make me?
Ms. Ha, please take a look at this.
Okay.
(Hometown Warm Porridge)
What? When did you get here?
Just now.
I came to deliver porridge.
You looked under the weather today.
Director Seo, aren't you busy?
I am busy,
but this is more important than anything else.
Eat this,
and take this.
(One Heart Medical Pharmacy)
No, I'm fine.
You don't look fine at all.
I'll deal with it myself.
Don't interfere with my business and leave.
I'm not doing this as your ex-boyfriend but as your colleague.
You're working even while you're sick because of the presentation.
Hurry up and eat. I'll bring you some water.
(Hometown Warm Porridge, One Heart Medical Pharmacy)
You don't look so good.
Why don't you take a day off tomorrow and get some rest?
You must've forgotten since becoming a director.
It's not easy for an office worker to take a day off.
See? This is the difference between you and me.
You're someone who can take a day off anytime you want.
I'm an office worker who has to feel bad about taking a day off.
Then, give me your car key. I'll drive.
Accept my help today.
Forget it! I don't need your help, Seo Ju Won
Yoon Seo! Ha Yoon Seo!
Yoon Seo!
Are you awake?
Where am I?
This is the VIP room, isn't it?
I'm leaving.
Where do you think you're going? Your IV is not done yet.
I can't afford this.
I'm going to call it an industrial accident.
An industrial accident? You're going overboard.
What kind of company puts an employee in the VIP room
because she passed out?
Right here.
Manager Ha Yoon Seo is setting the guidelines for company welfare.
You can brag about it.
I feel fine. I want to leave.
Are you sure you feel fine?
To me, it looks like you're pretending to be fine.
Am I wrong?
Yoon Seo.
This is hard on me.
I knew what I was getting into,
but constant rejection is tough.
And so is seeing you pretend to be fine when you're not.
If it's so hard,
why do it?
You don't like watching movies.
You can't stand being in closed spaces for a long time.
Why did you put up with it?
Who told you that?
The vice chairman.
We dated
for a year and a half.
And I found that out today.
From someone else too.
I didn't mean to hide it from you. I just
You did it for me?
No.
I did it for me.
I didn't just put up with what I didn't like.
I wanted to enjoy with you
the things you liked.
Yes.
I had to force myself to stay at first.
It wasn't easy in the beginning.
But I was fascinated by how much you enjoyed yourself.
When you enjoy things,
you sparkle and shine.
So I kept going to movies with you,
and I learned to enjoy them.
Now I actually really like movies.
I even collect DVDs.
I grew to like other things too.
I couldn't stand spicy foods.
I disliked soju mixed with beer,
and I didn't like winter either.
Now I like them all.
I didn't put up with things I didn't like for you.
I learned to like things thanks to you.
You could've told me sooner.
I never wanted you to cater to me.
Even if I find operas strange and boring,
if I'd known you liked them,
I'd have tried to learn.
You didn't even give me a chance.
I'm sorry.
Let's
eat together 27 times.
What?
I don't like how you went by it,
but you tried hard for me until now.
You worked on dating me.
Let's work on breaking up too.
I don't want to work on that.
Even so.
I just had the thought
that maybe
I must treat it like a bad cold and fight through it.
Only then can I maybe free myself of these feelings.
What?
Are you going to shake me off like a cold?
Are you saying I'm a virus?
Is that how it sounds?
Then I'll become an antibody and stick right to you.
Fine.
This way or that, all I need to do
is eat with you 27 times.
I'll show you
just how much I like you
and why we must be together.
Your food's ready.
Thank you.
Enjoy your meal.
Let's eat.
That's how we started to eat out together.
(Meals remaining: 26)
That's right. Tangsuyuk must be drenched in sauce.
It felt like we were on dates that weren't dates.
(Meals remaining: 25)
(Meals remaining: 24)
Gosh. This is good.
- I think this tastes best.
- Me too.
- Is it good?
- Try the jjigae.
This?
When we were eating,
it felt as if we'd gone back to when we were a couple.
(Meals remaining: 24)
(Meals remaining: 23)
You're a mess because of Ju Won, aren't you?
I didn't want to go this far.
I was told they'd broken up.
Why are they still dating?
From what I know, Ms. Ha's doing her best.
It's Ju Won who's clinging to her like crazy.
Even if you were to approve of them,
I think Ms. Ha would refuse.
That's another problem in itself.
Watch and wait.
You know couples don't break up just like that.
I thought
she seemed the responsible type, so she'll keep her word.
Can you take care of these for me?
Without Ju Won knowing.
Why? You don't want him to know?
Nothing good will come of it.
That I met with Ms. Ha.
Are you sure Ju Won doesn't know?
What about the fact that I had these photos taken?
He won't know that, will he?
Well, no.
Don't get someone to take photos
and give him time instead.
I'm sure Ju Won will take care of things.
Do you want Ju Won too to go with
an arranged marriage?
You had an arranged marriage
and Father hasn't returned from New York in two years
Mother. I'll get rid of these right away.
By the way.
Why are all the photos of them eating?
Are you ready?
Okay.
Why does it feel like we're conquering famous restaurants?
Who cares what it's like?
- Let's go.
- Okay.
(Meals remaining: 23)
(Meals remaining: 22)
Hello. We're back.
Hello, guys.
Give us a medium, extra spicy.
And a bottle of soju, please.
- Okay.
- No, forget the alcohol.
Okay.
What's up?
You always drink when we eat here. Why not today?
We agreed to 27 meals, not to food and drink.
Are you afraid alcohol will weaken your resolve?
Weaken what resolve?
You're barely controlling yourself.
Are you afraid drunk you
will go back on it and take me back?
Ma'am, give us a bottle
- Two bottles of soju.
- Okay!
Your car's ready.
Will you go straight home?
Shall we drop by the wine store?
- I'm craving a drink.
- Sure.
Do you have the Chateau-d'Oex 2002?
I'm sorry, sir. It's so expensive,
not many people ask for it.
A few days ago, Ms. Lee Mi Jin mentioned it on her social media,
and people have been asking for it.
My wife posted about it?
Yes.
(Following 1)

She has a huge influence.

This
We had this?
When did I buy it?
I don't think I did.
That's insane.
You really know that chairman?
- Yes.
- What's he like in real life?
He looks the same as he does on the news.
What do you call him?
"Mister."
- It's fascinating.
- What?
I feel like I'm with
a celebrity.
Not to mention that you're so nonchalant about it.
Seo Ju Won
Do you want your celebrity friend to do something special for you?
What?
Get lost.
You're such a sweet couple.
When are you getting married?
We broke up, ma'am.
What are you on about? Are you serious?
We really broke up.
I'm being clingy to get her back,
but she's fighting it.
Oh, I don't care if you broke up or not.
Here's a beer on the house.
Have a good time.
- Thank you.
- Sorry, but no.
Ma'am. We don't accept freebies.
I need to milk her dry.
What? Is she buying today?
Yes. Not just this meal but 22 more after that.
You can't tell,
but this guy here is filthy rich.
But he insists that I treat him.
The rich are worse.
Okay, then.
If you treat me 22 times,
I'll treat you 220 times. Will that do?
Quit with the love spat
and don't get too drunk.
It's not a love spat. We broke up.
I feel so sad.
How about
a soju and beer mixer?
I'll mix one with the perfect ratio.
Okay.
Thanks.
- It's so good.
- Isn't it?
- What?
- Feed me a piece.
- Feed yourself.
- Feed me.
- Forget it.
- That hurts.
Hey, that's pretty.
As if they broke up.
They're a couple of fools.
- Goodness.
- Feed me.
Can't you eat on your own?
Please?
Ju Won.
Seo Ju Won.
Go home.
A chauffeur No.
Call your secretary.
What?
Call him. I'll go home.
What are you doing?
Yoon Seo.
Let me ask you something.
Will you really break up with me?
Do you not like me anymore?
Why did I do that?
Was it because it was late,
there was a breeze,
and I was drunk?
I told him the truth.
No.
I still
like you a lot.
(Cinderella at 2AM)
I was a total moron last night.
Darling.
I wasn't lucky.
He must remember everything.
I think I was pathetic just now.
Can you keep your promise
and break up with my son?
She looks at my son
like this?
Shall we hang out tomorrow?
What?
I want to have fun and laugh a lot.
That's how I want to spend my last day.
Can't I?
