I should
let you go, right?
Should I?
That night,
when the fireworks were at their brightest,
we broke up.
(Ha Yoon Seo)
Ta-da.
What's this?
They were so pretty I had to get them.
And this is what I made myself.
You should've brought something with a jewel, not a flower.
How could you say that? You're so materialistic.
You didn't know that about me?
You can make flower rings?
That's pretty cute.
I still prefer something with a shiny jewel.
Seriously?
Will she say yes if I give her a ring?
You can't take photos without asking.
I had to. You were so pretty.
Look over here. I'll take some more.
That's adorable.
Will you stop?
(Camera)
(Delete profile)
I'll build up on the resort event
based on what we discussed today.
(Event schedule)
When should we have the next meeting?
Hello? The next meeting?
What?
Oh, I'm sorry.
What did you say? I didn't hear you.
I'd appreciate it if you'd concentrate.
When should we have the next meeting?
- Hey, how about
- Yes?
We both hung in there hoping the time would somehow end.
We'll meet up again tomorrow.
Bye.
Do you think Ms. Ha
Just then
(Sorry for texting. I couldn't forget you.)
What is this text about?
I kept getting texts
from a number that wasn't saved on my phone.
(Block, Report as spam)
It can't be.
(Are you well? I am if you are.)
(Be sure to eat dinner. You skip when you're busy.)
They're clearly things an ex-boyfriend would send.
It's not Ju Won.
Did he get a new number?
My goodness.
(Seo Ju Won)
Hello, sir.
Why did you call?
Let's postpone today's meeting to next week.
Yes, sir.
(Seo Ju Won)
He didn't change his number.
What's going on, then?
Who would continuously send texts
to the wrong number?
I'm sorry but I think you have the wrong number.
Wait. What if this is a phishing scam?
As soon as I text back
No.
(Headquarters Director Seo Ju Won)
Hang on. He has two phones?
(Headquarters Director Seo Ju Won)
Why would he hide
(Headquarters Director Seo Ju Won)
What are you doing?
- What?
- Don't you think this was wrong
when we decided to break up?
- What do you mean?
- What do I mean?
(Are you well? I am if you are.)
Did you think I wouldn't catch on
if you used another number?
I think there's a misunderstanding.
It took a lot of courage to break up with you.
- If you send such texts
- I didn't.
What?
I caught you red-handed.
You have two phones.
Oh, that?
I'm testing an AL Electronics phone that will be released next quarter.
What?
You know everything's top secret.
I used it only when I was alone,
and I freaked out when I saw you looking.
Is that so?
Yes.
Bye, then.
Yes, Ye Young. You want to grab dinner?
- Where shall we meet?
- That's my phone.
I'm heading home.
Bye.
She suddenly left on time?
We should too, then.
- Nice one.
- Let's go.
Stupid me.
Why did I get it so wrong?
(Can we meet again someday?)
Because of you
Who on earth are you?
Is it your ex-ex-boyfriend?
Yoon Seo.
I know a bit because I've gotten a lot of these in my time.
These texts are dripping with longing.
It's something you'd send an old flame.
Your ex-boyfriend Ju Won said it wasn't him,
so think about your ex-ex-boyfriend.
Or your ex-ex-ex-boyfriend.
Or your four times ex-boyfriend.
Uncle.
Get your own life on track.
It is on track.
Didn't you eat out with someone in the past?
You wouldn't send such texts to someone you just had a meal with.
You have a point.
"Sorry for texting. I couldn't forget you."
I think it's a clever phishing scam.
Since I know it's not Ju Won,
I'll report it as spam.
What are you doing?
It's weird.
No scammer would be this sentimental.
- I need to check.
- What for?
Hello?
You've been texting this number recently, haven't you?
Who the heck are you?
Put it on speaker.
Isn't this Kang Jae Hee's number?
It's not.
It's Ha Yoon Seo's number.
I thought you were someone I knew.
I saved the number but couldn't find a profile picture.
I'm sorry for the trouble.
I apologize.
I'm sorry for reading the texts
that weren't meant for me.
Okay, bye.
Darn it.
It wasn't spam. It was a sad story.
He wasn't a scammer.
He was just a sad man.
Yes.
I guess he broke up too.
Excuse me.
Yes, I'm coming.
Why are you offering to help when I can manage on my own?
You'll be done sooner if you have help.
You weren't
bummed or anything to find out it wasn't Ju Won, were you?
- What?
- You know how it is.
You want to be forgotten,
but you'd be bummed if he forgot you too soon.
I wouldn't.
But now I'm seeing why people say
you shouldn't date a colleague.
It's really hard having to face him at work.
- Don't face him, then.
- How do I do that?
You can avoid him as much as you can.
That's not an easy thing to do while working in the same office.
Yoon Seo. Ji Seok's here.
Okay. Is it that time already?
Hey, you're a grown man now.
Did you come over to walk your sister home?
Good boy.
I should give you some pocket money for
I only have a dollar. Maybe next time.
Hi, Ji Seok.
You get a little more handsome each time we meet.
Are your grades still as bad?
Pretty much.
- Let's go.
- Already?
Have something to eat while you're here.
Do you want some noodles?
No, thanks. It's fine.
Bye.
See you.
- Okay.
- Bye.
Goodbye.
What's up with the siblings that used to be the closest?
I wonder.
(Makyirae, Craft Makgeolli)
Unless you have other plans,
we'll meet here and walk home together from now on.
I'd love to meet you at the school gate, but I won't.
Do you object?
No.
What did the school say?
They're still discussing what to do with the others,
but Seok Hyun and I are to do voluntary work at school for a week.
A week of voluntary work doesn't mean you didn't do wrong.
I know.
And don't expect Young Soo to be understanding.
Don't force your apology on him either.
It can't be helped if he hates you. That's your burden to bear.
Okay.
I'll bear the burden and apologize properly.
I'm sorry I said such nasty things.
But
do you know it's because I care about you?
I know.
But Yoon Seo.
This is a bit gross.
I know it is.
But you'll run off if I don't do this.
I'm taking you somewhere.
- Follow me.
- I can still do that if you let go.
Yoon Seo.
(School workbooks)
I know I'm not in a position to say this,
but do you think this will help when the KSAT is just a month away?
To be honest, there's no college I want to go to
or anything I want to be.
I left you alone so far
because I didn't want to force you to do anything.
But I want you
to experience the feeling of accomplishing something.
To do something ordinary like everyone else.
So take the KSAT.
Do the best you can.
Can you do that?
- Yes.
- Good.
Finish all of them, okay?
All of them?
Yes. Why else would you buy books?
Hey, it's Wimp.
I mean, this guy looks like your boyfriend.
His eyes and nose. They're just like Wimp's.
He doesn't look like him at all.
Let's go and pay.
It's stupid of me
to liken Wimp to a rich heir, right?
He'd sue me if he heard.
Yes.
(AL Group Director Seo Ju Won kicks off joint data deal)
To think I asked if he sent me such texts
when all he cares about is his career.
I should avoid him as best I can starting tomorrow.
(AL Group Director Seo Ju Won kicks off joint data deal)
I came to say something.
Is there anything left between us to say?
We can still talk even if we have broken up.
Did you and Wimp break up?
What did you do to my sister?
Why did you dump her?
Why did you abandon her?
She dumped me.
I got abandoned.
No way.
Why did you do that all of a sudden? I thought you liked him?
Go on inside unless you want to die.
I should stay with you.
What if Wimp
What if he tries to hurt you to get revenge?
I should beat him up.
Get lost before you get beaten up.
What? But
Go.
Why are you here?
I want the presents back.
The necklace, perfume, toy, and book.
And apologize for getting the wrong idea
and asking if I'd sent the weird texts.
What were those texts?
I know I no longer have the right to ask,
but I'm so bothered and curious.
I can't forget the desperate messages.
(Is it selfish of me to do this? I'm sorry.)
(Are you well? I am if you are.)
Was it your ex?
Aren't you my ex?
Was it your ex-ex-boyfriend?
What are you on about?
There was a mix-up.
It looked like he'd broken up too.
I see.
It can't be helped if you think I'm pathetic for coming here.
It takes time to get over someone.
Consider this customer service. So just accept it.
Do you feel uncomfortable seeing me at work?
I try to stay in my office in case you do.
Tell me if it becomes too much.
What will you do then?
I'll move my office or something.
Actually,
I'm confused too.
Trying to work through my emotions while seeing you every day.
It's not easy.
I'm learning that now.
But still,
we need to work together.
I should try to get through it.
Yes.
All right.
Even though AL CARD had a late start,
it has managed to become number two
in the industry through aggressive marketing.
However, it has not been able
to catch up to number 1 for the past 3 years.
The biggest reason must be the impression that
(AL Hanok Stay)
(Hanok)
They'll get to enjoy the food and the culture as well.
It's a comprehensive spatial project.
The opening ceremony is less than a week away.
Please wrap it up well.
For sure. Don't worry.
Oh, right. Are we going to take one car
when we go there for the opening ceremony?
If so, how about we take my car?
- Right, the work trip.
- I bought it a month ago,
so it's still new.
I truly look up to you, so I'd love to be your driver.
My, we get to spend a night at a hanok, a traditional house.
I even bought a camera to take some amazing pictures!
Oh, right. We're supposed to stay there for one night.
I have to make a few stops along the way, so I'll go alone.
All right, then.
What was that?
Does he not want to spend time with us now that he's the director?
Gosh. I wanted to give him a ride in my new car
to win him over and gain his favour.
- Darn it.
- Gosh.
He's avoiding me on purpose.
I keep avoiding her like this. Is this the right thing to do?
She ate in Cheongdam-dong, which means she's still in Korea.
And it means she'll come home today.
Good grief. How long is she planning to stay?
Why not just leave?
Oh, that road is blocked.
(Do Not Enter)
I'm sorry.
Oh, okay.
They're blocking the road during rush hour?
That's not good.
I'm sorry, sir.
Hello, sir.
Yes, hello.
(Wife)
(Husband)
What was that? Wasn't it your husband?
Why didn't you pick up?
It feels awkward.
You feel awkward answering his call?
My gosh. Then how do you live with him?
We haven't been living together.
Right. You moved to Paris
as soon as you got married and have been on your own.
That's right.
The most time we've spent together was like 13 hours.
Thirteen hours?
Yes, on the day we first met.
From Incheon to Paris.
Oh, we had our blind date on the plane.
- What?
- What?
I've never had a blind date on a plane before.
Same here.
But I thought this was a good idea.
As you know, the arranged marriage has to happen.
I'm not expecting any romance,
but it'll be hard to live together if we can't stand each other.
Well, right.
This is better than meeting for a couple of hours a few times.
Here, we have to spend many hours together in the same space.
This way, we can learn about each other's food
and wine preferences,
movie tastes,
what we like to do to kill time on the plane,
and even each other's sleeping habits.
Isn't it kind of nice?
On top of that, you got to meet me.
What kind of wine would you like?
- I'll have red.
- White wine, please.
Is the temperature all right with you?
- It's hot in here.
- I'm cold.
(Husband)
The person you've reached is unavailable
Why isn't she picking up?
She's not picking up her phone,
and I don't even know why she's in Korea.
So, when is she leaving?
Gosh.
I feel so uncomfortable.
Oh, boy.
What can I do to get through this?
Look, I clearly told you I wasn't the person you were looking for.
Why are you texting me again?
Hearing that you weren't the one I was looking for
made me feel more at ease.
What is this nonsense about?
(Incoming Call)
Hello? What are you doing?
Why did you call me?
And what does this text message mean?
I literally meant what I wrote.
I'll be honest. While sending those text messages,
I was secretly hoping they wouldn't get delivered.
I can't really figure out how I feel.
I was hoping they'd reach her.
But in a way, I hoped they wouldn't.
With that said
Can I keep texting you once in a while since this happened anyway?
You can just ignore my messages like you've been doing.
My gosh. Is he a psychopath or something?
- "Psychopath?" - Oh, no.
You heard that?
Yes, I heard you.
I'm glad you heard me.
I understand that you sent me those messages by mistake.
But you'll keep texting me
when you know I'm not the right person?
Does it make sense to you?
So, I can't do it?
Look. I really wasn't going to say this,
but I thought my ex-boyfriend sent me those messages,
so I asked him about it and embarrassed myself.
Whenever I get a text from you,
I feel rattled as if I've received an emergency disaster alert.
I guess you still have feelings left for your ex-boyfriend.
Not exactly.
We're in the process of breaking up at the moment.
I'm trying to focus on work
to overcome the breakup.
Gosh.
What is this? Why do I keep answering your questions?
Forget it. Do not text me again.
My gosh.
Just forget about it.
I need to work.
I have such an important project coming up.
Yes, I must get some work done. Focus.
You're here, Ms. Ha.
This is my car. Isn't it so nice?
Yes, you said it was new, right? It really is nice.
I know. I love my car so much!
I'm sorry I'm late!
Oh, there you are.
Be punctual, will you?
What if Director Seo gets there before we do?
I'm sorry.
It's not like I slept in.
I'm late because I picked up snacks for all of us.
Ta-da!
I got all kinds of new snacks on the market.
You did? My gosh, thanks.
- Why did you buy so many things?
- Don't I deserve a compliment?
Yes, well done. Shall we get going now?
- Yes.
- Let's go!
All right, let's go.
Ye Young, you're really
No wonder your surname is No.
You really have no manners, Ye Young.
You knew those crumbs would get everywhere.
How could you eat that in my car?
I'm sorry.
Oh, no.
Don't do that! Hold on.
Ye Young, use this.
Like this.
Wear it like this while you eat that.
Thank goodness Director Seo isn't here to see this.
Seriously, thank goodness he didn't come with us.
Anyway,
is Director Seo coming with his driver?
I don't know.
If I were him, I'd bring along
my driver, secretary, and so on
in a huge limousine and drink champagne on the way.
How much longer will you make me do this shoulder dance?
I'll drink and dance like that on the way.
Director Seo never makes it obvious that he's a rich heir.
You know,
when I first heard that Ju Won was the chairwoman's son,
I was utterly shocked.
I still feel as though someone crashed into me.
- Are you all right?
- Yes, I'm okay.
- Are you okay?
- Yes. Are you all right?
Oh, no.
Then I'll be in touch. All right.
Bye.
How did it go?
He admitted it was his fault.
He'll have his insurance company handle it.
I still haven't even removed the plastic covers yet.
I'm sorry, Jang Dol!
Jang Dol?
Your car has a name?
Oh. We aren't running late, are we?
No. I just looked it up.
We can get to the nearest rental car store in ten minutes.
If we leave now, we won't be late.
Shall we cab there?
- Yes.
- There he is.
What? Why is Director Seo here?
I called him.
I was worried that he'd be all flustered without me
if he arrived there before we did.
But I didn't know he'd come here to pick us up.
Oh, my.
Are you not hurt?
- No, I'm fine.
- You should see a doctor first.
I can handle the business trip alone, so go ahead and cancel
We shouldn't cancel the trip over this.
You two should go to the nearest hospital.
I'm totally fine.
I'm totally fine too.
Mr. Bae, you can go alone.
Although it doesn't look like you have any serious injuries.
Well, I'm fine too.
Besides, it doesn't matter if I'm hurt
because it's such an important day.
Okay, let's not waste any more time.
- Let's hurry.
- Let's go.
- Wait, but
- Let's go.
But are you sure you can drive all the way there?
Long-distance driving is exhausting. Let me drive.
It's fine. You know I'm a good driver.
You said you always fell asleep when I was driving.
I drove your car many times when we had meetings elsewhere.
Well, back then
I just closed my eyes for a few moments.
Shall we listen to some music?
Oh, I'll pick the songs.
Director Seo, can I connect my phone to your car via Bluetooth?
Yes, of course.
What?
"Yoon Seo's Phone?"
Ms. Ha, have you been in this car before?
Oh, well
Oh, right.
I have a friend named Kim Yoon Seo.
I see.
(Assistant PR Manager Kwon Gyeong Eun)
(Assistant PR Manager Kwon Gyeong Eun)
Hello, Ha Yoon Seo speaking.
Hello, Ms. Ha. What time will you be arriving?
We'll arrive on time.
I'll call you when I'm close.
Oh, that's right!
The other day, Director Seo wanted to talk to me about work
and gave me a ride to the subway station.
I guess it was connected that day.
Oh, right. I forgot about that.
So, it was you, not my friend, Kim Yoon Seo.
Yes.
(Boyoung Rest Area)
Don't you think something's going on between those two?
Something's going on? Like what?
I could tell something was up during the meeting we had.
I think they're seeing each other.
What? They're seeing each other?
Gosh, be quiet.
How could I be quiet when you're talking such nonsense?
He worked under the scary Ha Yoon Seo for two years.
They're seeing each other? As if.
She should be grateful he hasn't run away yet.
That's true.
But how will you explain the Bluetooth thing earlier?
What do you think?
Seo Ju Won is trying to discipline her.
- Discipline her?
- That's right.
The other day, he called her to his office
and pet her on the head like this to intimidate her.
They can talk about work in the office.
Why talk in the car?
Clearly, he wanted her to see his fancy car and be intimidated
to put her in her place and show her that he was her boss now.
You know?
Do you want to get some snacks?
You want a snack? Sure.
What will you buy us?
Well, let's see what they have.
- Oh, sure.
- Over there.
Oh, my. You bought all this food for us.
You're like Sheikh Mansour.
Others might wonder if he's a rich heir or something.
Oh, you are a rich heir.
Anyway, thank you.
Thank you for the snacks!
You bought us snacks and are driving us too.
You have to do all this because of Mr. Bae.
No, it's fine.
Because of me?
We could've avoided the accident had you driven carefully.
What could I have done? That car hit us from behind.
Well, you should've seen that car coming behind you.
That's right.
I should've seen that car coming.
Why didn't I see it?
You were dropping the crumbs all over.
I couldn't see that car because I was so distracted!
I didn't say anything because I was so kind and understanding!
Gosh, why are you being like this? That's enough.
All right, let's eat. Mr. Bae. Here, Ms. No.
- Babe, eat up.
- Okay.
"Babe?"
What? Ms. Ha is your "babe?"
My gosh, no! What are you talking about?
How could I be Director Seo's babe?
Please, Mr. Bae.
But you called her "Babe" just now.
No. I said, "You too."
That's right. That's what I heard too.
- I heard that too.
- Right?
Yes, for sure.
He clearly said, "You too."
What do I do?
That was really dangerous, following the Bluetooth incident.
He totally called her "Babe."
They can't fool my ears.
They can't fool my ears either. See? I was right.
They're definitely seeing each other, at the very least.
Well, maybe.
I thought it was impossible. But maybe they're seeing each other.
Let's wait and see.
Okay.
Well There's no way. they know, right?
That we're dating
I mean, that we dated.
I'm sorry. I should've been more careful.
Well, let's both be more careful from now on.
Okay.
Wait.
Here.
What is this?
You were in an accident.
I saw them selling it over there, so I bought it for you.
It's an all-natural pain reliever made with medicinal herbs
such as houttuynia cordata, milk thistle, orange peel,
and dong quai.
Its name is "Hanbange," as in "instant cure."
It's a double entendre.
When did you get this?
Thanks.
But
don't do these things for me from now on.
Don't pick me up even if you hear that I got into an accident.
Don't worry about me from now on.
Why not?
What do you think?
We broke up,
so we're no longer together.
We should let ourselves grow apart.
Yoon Seo.
Bye.
You made it, Director Seo.
- Hello.
- This way, please.
Ju Won will have more responsibilities from now on.
I hope our time together won't make it harder for him.
My gosh. This is so awkward.
Gosh, having to dress like this at home feels so stuffy.
I mean, she should've called ahead if she was coming
to someone else's house.
Oh, it's the house we live in together.
We haven't lived together for that long, so I forgot.
I want to have a drink.
No. It's my house. I can have a drink.
That's a limited edition bottle with only two imported to Korea.
And those are cups I got as gifts from the French Embassy.
And I bought that myself when I went on a trip to Milan
because the case was pretty.
Oh, is that so? I sure have a good eye for things.
I should post this on social media.
Oh, I hear you're opening up the Hanok guest house in Yeosu.
Won't you go there?
Oh, I have an important meeting tomorrow morning.
If you have an important meeting, why did you come out here?
I was going to go to bed after having a drink.
Isn't it better to go to bed without having a drink?
If it's an important meeting, that is.
Thank you for the advice.
Right.
She'll leave after a few days anyway.
I'll let it slide.
You know why?
I'm a generous guy. Right.
Oh, wait. Why is Sebastian I mean
Why are you taking my dishwasher?
Oh, Director Lee said she was switching it
with a new one from Germany.
- Pardon?
- There's a new brand coming in
to her department store, so she wants to test it out.
- This goes into storage too, right?
- Yes.
Here we go.
Wait, what
Sebastian
Alberto.
What? Didn't you go to bed?
Oh, I was going to go to bed,
but I think we should talk.
Let me come in for a minute.
So, we haven't shared every bit of our lives together,
so I just figured you came home all of a sudden from Paris.
- But what's that?
- What's what?
I thought you were just here for a few days.
Why switch out the appliances?
I'm not just here for a few days.
Then what?
I'll consider this a congratulatory drink on being appointed to
a position at headquarters.
Santé.
"Appointed to a position at headquarters?"
Then, are we going to
live together forever?
Yes, now, you can't live alone.
Shall we take a picture to celebrate?
I think there are tabloids going around that we're a pretend couple.
We should refute those.
Gosh, are they the truth and not just tabloid gossip?
We are a pretend couple, right?
(AL Group's New Challenge With Hanoks)
Now, we will begin the opening ceremony of Stay Arang.
(AL Group's New Challenge With Hanoks)
Gosh. That young guy was born under good parents,
so he didn't have to try hard at all to get to a position like that.
I know.
They say he started at the bottom and worked his way up,
but how do we know if he just sat around like an emperor,
acting like he was working?
Did anyone see him?
Me.
I saw him.
I was his mentor.
He didn't want to hear such comments,
so he worked his butt off.
Right.
No matter how much it was,
I'm sure he tried way more than they did.
He worked so hard under me, the spiteful boss.
I have no idea what your standard was when organizing this.
You should've asked me first. Why did you do it like this?
Mr. Seo Ju Won.
From now on, don't make things worse
- and just report to me beforehand.
- Yes, ma'am.
Ms. Ha, when I looked through last quarter's data analysis report,
there were a few things that were omitted.
I made some corrections. Could you please take a look?
Okay.
Oh, also, I wrote up a trend research report.
If you have time, please read it through for me.
- All right.
- Thank you.
I know that he didn't get to this position
all that easily.
I had always hoped you'd become a success.
I was truly happy to be able to see that,
and then I realized
that my time as Manager Ha Yoon Seo
was over today.
- Don't face him, then.
- How do I do that?
You can avoid him as much as you can.
That's not an easy thing to do while working in the same office.
I should hang in there until I quit my job.
What, quit?
We broke up. It's weird to stay in the same place.
What's this?
Then, tell him to quit.
Why give up your livelihood just because you broke up?
I'm not giving up.
For me
and Ju Won,
it's right for me to leave.
Actually, I already knew.
If one of us has to leave,
it would be me.
I hope he goes up so high
that I can't even reach him
and be truly happy.
Gosh.
Our Hanok Stay
will be open to the public starting next week.
As soon as the reservations opened today,
all of the rooms were fully booked.
Awesome.
Our Hanok is such a hot place.
The drinks taste good.
Our work was a big success.
The sunset looks amazing too.
All right. Cheers!
- Cheers!
- Cheers!
Why aren't you drinking, Ms. Ha?
- Oh, I
- He's right.
It's not like you'll be driving like me. Have a drink.
I'll drive you home safe and sound.
No, I'm going to stay another day before going back.
There were some parts I couldn't look over because of the ceremony.
I'll stay another day and look things over properly.
She sure is a workaholic.
On a day like today, when we finish a project,
she should get some rest.
Why is she going to work again?
Our dear Ms. Ha Yoon Seo. Since we finished a project,
she will nag at us so much again starting next week.
She'll be telling us to bring new items
But if she tells you to bring an item,
can you even bring one?
- You can't even do that.
- You don't know me very well.
I have at least 2 or 3 projects in mind at all times.
Didn't everyone go up to Seoul together?
And what about you, Director Seo?
I wanted to take a closer look.
Me too.
Could we
walk together for a bit?
You were really cool today.
Me? Are you sure it wasn't you?
Come on. I'm not cool at all.
Ha Yoon Seo, the one who planned and led this project, is cool.
As I showed this place to people and received praise today,
I was so proud of Manager Ha Yoon Seo.
I was so proud of my good eye for having loved someone so cool,
but it also made my heart ache.
You know, I really tried my best.
I know.
So,
I think I could really leave without any regrets now.
I'm going to resign.
Ha Yoon Seo.
I will.
I think I should.
Yoon Seo.
I mean, Ms. Ha Yoon Seo.
I've lost you as my lover,
but I don't want to lose you as a colleague as well.
I respected Manager Ha Yoon Seo,
and that was how I could come all this way.
So?
Do you want to keep seeing each other like this?
With you not coming out of your office in case I feel uncomfortable,
travelling on your own on purpose when we go on team business trips,
and worrying about saying something by mistake in front of the team?
Smart Seo Ju Won.
You know this can't go on any longer.
Yoon Seo.
Thank you for everything.
I was happy that
I was able to dream here.
I'll resign as soon as I wrap up some important projects.
Mother, I have something to say
- Hey.
- It's been a while, Ju Won.
Yes, have you been well?
Yes.
I received the report that the opening ceremony went well.
Good work. Have a seat.
Please send me to an office overseas.
You were the one who said you wouldn't go.
- But
- Next year,
you will take Si Won's place.
What does that mean
I've returned to Korea for good this time.
I'm going to take charge of the department store in earnest.
Si Won will go to AL Corporation.
It was already planned since our marriage anyway.
The time frame has been moved up a bit,
but Mi Jin and I will expand on Distributions.
In order to do that, you have to take charge of AL CARD.
Then,
I believe we're done talking.
How could you decide something like this
without even discussing it with me?
Must I discuss
every little company matter with you?
It's not a company matter. It has to do with me.
I'll go to an overseas office. Let me go.
Do you know how immature and irresponsible
your words are?
Please.
It's too late.
Just once.
Can't you be my mother and not the chairwoman?
I don't know how much longer
I must endure this.
Who's there?
What's this?
Yoon Seo.
I have nowhere to go.
I have nowhere to go.
Can you please let me in?
What do you mean by that?
I left everything and left.
"Left everything?"
Now, all I have
is you.
Wait, Wimp?
I thought you broke up. Why did you come again?
Hey, brother. Do you have the answer key for this?
I don't think we learned stuff like this in my day
Director Seo.
Is the food here?
Director Seo
What, "Director Seo?"
Then, is Wimp
a third-generation conglomerate?
Hey, so
Delivery! I heard the whole team was here
What? Are you two dating again?
- No!
- What? "Dating again?"
Did you two date before?
Our office romance became known
- after we broke up.
- Director Seo
Mr. Bae and I will each split up and tail you as defenders.
There are so many office couples that have broken up.
Will you get all nosy and interfere each time?
What are you doing?
Open up.
She must've run into the chairwoman and gotten slapped in the face.
Then, is Ms. Ha Yoon Seo coming later too?
She seems pretty interesting.
What about you? Did you ever truly love me?
I know I'm pathetic for not being able to get over you
after breaking up.
But even in this moment,
I'm only worried about how to keep you
from getting hurt.
