What's Wrong with Secretary Kim (2018) s01e04 Episode Script

1
So,
you don't mind getting close to a guy
if you can win first place.
No, I don't. It's better than losing.
Right, you don't mind getting touchy-feely
with someone if you can win.
Exactly.
- Even if it's this close?
- Of course.
Even if it's this close?
I don't mind.
What about this?
I'll go refill the ice pack.
Did he fall asleep already?
Kid.
Can you help me?
Come here, come on.
- Help me!
- Mr. Vice-chairman!
Are you all right?
Have some tea.
Do you feel better now?
I am, thanks to you.
Do you often get sleep paralysis?
Well
I don't want to be alone tonight.
- Secretary Kim.
- Yes.
Just for tonight, can you
sleep over here?
Excuse me?
Sleep over here.
Sorry? What are you
I understand that you could be afraid
of being alone after the nightmare.
But you're not a child
and you ask me
Do you really mean it?
I'm just saying that you can sleep
in the guest room.
Why are you embarrassed?
Huh?
You've done it before
when you had to work late.
Oh, yes.
What did you expect?
I don't expect anything.
Yes.
Okay.
I'm sorry, but you should go.
Sorry to disappoint you.
Disappointed?
I was not going to stay here anyway.
Now that you look fine, I'm going home.
Good night.
What was the phone call about?
He did not look good.
Oops, Oh, my God! I'm sorry.
You should be careful.
-It looks fine.
- Not that.
I'm okay.
-You could fall over.
- I can do that.
Thank you.
-Oh, take this.
- Thanks, bye.
He's very sweet, unlike someone.
Won't you even ask me to sit down?
What are you doing here this late?
Do I need a reason to see my brother?
My new book releases next month.
It turns out that
Father and Mother are in Jeju.
I didn't feel like going to their house
so I came here to say hello.
To be honest, I want to forgive you.
I sometimes remember it,
which is still not easy for me.
But hating and blaming you
only puts me in agony.
So, I think I'll forgive you now.
How about a drink?
I'm really into three things in France.
Writing, women, and wine.
You should go.
- What?
- I'm tired.
- I removed them. Are you okay?
- Who was it?
I was so busy that I forgot. I'm sorry.
I took them away.
Are you all right, Mr. Executive?
- Mi-so Kim.
- Yes.
You said you hate spiders the most
in the world.
Yes.
It's cable ties that scare me to death.
So, don't use them from now on.
Please.
Understood. I won't.
It was the first moment
when my perfect boss looked
like an ordinary person like me.
It hurts!
Did I fasten the tie too tight
for the race?
Why do you keep--
How did he get the scar on his ankle?
What happened to him?
How is your ankle?
I cancelled all meetings out of office
so you can take it easy.
I asked Ms. Shin to give you an ice pack
in the morning.
Get some rest.
All this nagging.
It's very tiring.
Secretary Kim, sorry that I'm late.
It's fine, but come earlier tomorrow.
I will.
How is the Vice-chairman's ankle?
It's not serious, but he needs some rest,
so I cancelled his appointments.
- Please rearrange them for later.
- Yes.
Let me do it.
- What should I do?
- We need to tell him.
You are distracting me!
- It's emergency.
- What is it?
The New K Group's art center moved up
the opening date
to the beginning of August.
What?
So what? Is that a problem?
You don't know anything!
Our art center is scheduled to open on
August 20th, and now they'll open first.
We'll lose the attention.
He's been very concerned
as the opening dates are so close.
- Before he comes in, solutions--
- There is one solution.
Hello.
We are moving our opening to July.
July is next month.
That's in a couple of days.
Yes, sir. We'll get ready for it.
What?
- This is the planning info we have.
- Hello?
This is the Vice-chairman's office.
He's on his way to the art center.
He wants the opening in July now.
I'm printing the data for the opening.
Hurry, so that he can see it on the way.
Can you open the art gallery next month?
Unfortunately, the wire mesh 3D project
for the main exhibition is not done yet.
It takes time to move and install it.
Allow them to work on the project here
immediately so it can be finished.
I will do that.
Can you open the auditorium next month?
Unfortunately, the thing is
- Will the library be ready?
- It's
Are you about to say "unfortunately"?
Sorry. The copyrights for movies and
documentaries haven't been settled yet.
It won't be a problem
if we don't hold a public screening.
Start the screenings with videos
that have the copyright sorted out.
I know this is very sudden,
but work quickly without mistakes.
Yes, sir.
- Let's take a look around the library.
- Yes.
They built it nicely.
I'd love to read all day here.
Then it is a success.
It was meant to be built that way.
Oh, my gosh.
Let me check what's going on.
Yes, Director.
There is a blackout in all buildings?
No, you don't need to come here.
Please fix it soon.
A blackout? Shouldn't these details
be resolved by now?
You surprised me!
Sorry. I was trying to make it brighter.
- You weren't trying to scare me?
- No way.
But your face was kind of cute.
Secretary Kim, I'm not cute,
but fatally attractive.
My mistake.
Come this way, please.
Well here
This book is my favorite!
EVERY MOMENT WAS YOU
It has every one of my wishes for romance.
I particularly love this verse.
"I want the kind of romance
where even if every second
doesn't sweep me off my feet
just a little hug
erases the fatigue of the day.
That is the kind of romance I want."
Good, isn't it?
Childish.
My shower that has ions, vitamins,
and a sterilizing effect
is what washes away my fatigue.
It's different.
You can think it's childish
but this is the love that I want.
- Have I ever said that you are pretty?
- What?
No, you haven't.
Of course I haven't,
because I never felt that way.
- It seems to take time to recover power.
- Let me check again.
No, let's just go outside.
It's a bit stuffy.
All right.
This way, please.
Mr. Vice-chairman, that is the way out.
Secretary Kim, you don't know
architecture very well.
The exit is this way.
Well okay.
Instead of the fundamentals
of architecture,
you should believe someone
who has been in the building before.
The way out is there. I told you.
It's definitely the design
of the architect that I chose.
It's a very creative design to defy
what is expected of a building.
I'll use it in the marketing.
Now, please come this way.
- Do you wear perfume?
- No, I don't.
I can smell citrus from you.
Oh, it's probably my shampoo.
It's often on sale.
Buy one, get one free. I always use it.
Buy one, get one free
Do you usually walk this fast?
It became my habit to keep pace with you.
Well, one step for me
is two steps for others.
It must be hard to keep up.
By now I'm perfectly okay with it.
Why didn't I notice
that you walked so fast?
When it's dark,
your senses are more aware.
What are you doing? If you walk
that far away, you might trip.
You're right.
When it's dark, you are more aware.
I don't want to trip.
Now it's back on.
I'll get the car ready.
- Okay.
- Yes.
We apologize for your inconvenience.
No, it's all right.
- Secretary Kim.
- Yes.
Is there any event at the library
other than the movie screening?
No, because many art exhibitions
and musicals are planned already.
It wasn't too bad
when I looked around today.
Ask them to have an opening event
at the library, too.
Yes, I will.
Let me think about what is appropriate.
You?
Yes, we don't have much time
and it's the project you care about.
Now!
Great.
- You are the master of pig skin.
- Right?
Just five seconds makes the difference.
What are you thinking?
I need an idea for an opening event
at the library.
Does a secretary do that, too?
Why are you so loyal
when you are about to leave?
That's right. As a psychiatrist,
I can say you're a workaholic.
You're addicted to work.
No, it's just that I'm doing my best
until my last day.
This is why he's so clingy.
You work too hard for him.
I heard from Pil-nam that he's
amazingly possessive of you.
You told her already?
Hey, master of pig skin,
flip them over!
Not yet, after 40 more seconds.
But you know, I started to think
he's not just being possessive.
- He might need me more than anybody.
- What?
Well, I keep thinking
what it would be like if I'm not there.
Don't tell me you like him.
What are you talking about?
Come on, stop overreacting.
If that's not the case, put an end to it.
Otherwise you will live not as Mi-so Kim,
but as Secretary Kim,
forever under his control.
That I know better than anyone.
Do it right, the smoke is all over me.
Come on, master of pig skin
It's just dust. It's all right.
Sis.
About phobias
is it something you can get over?
Of course, it gets better
the more you face it and get used to it.
- Visit my office after you quit work.
- No.
I mean, it's not about me.
Then who?
No, it's nothing.
I wonder what she's doing now?
EVERY MOMENT WAS YOU
What a childish book.
"In this complex and confusing life,
as you're working on your problems,
you wonder what she's doing now.
You think of someone
other than yourself
call that love."
I obviously need to wonder
what she is doing to give her work.
That's not love? It's nonsense.
It's Morpheus!
I'm sorry. He's all over the news
because of the new publication.
I'm excited, too. The title is
Once in a Lifetime.
I read it in the English version.
It was a sad love story
that could happen just once in a lifetime.
- I cried all night.
- Is it that good?
Yes. Anyway, why does he keep himself
under wraps?
It'll be awesome if he just makes
one appearance somewhere.
Tell me about it.
A book reading?
Yes, a book reading with an author
who can draw attention.
Invite an author and attract attention
What about JK Rowling
who wrote Harry Potter?
She's good, but I think Mor--
Don't mention him.
Morpheus may not come
and that'd be a disaster.
Mor?
More time needed
to find the perfect person.
A plan without specifics.
That's not like you.
Can you wait a little longer?
I won't disappoint you.
Why are you laughing?
- Am I?
- Huh?
I'm in the lobby.
I'm coming up to see you.
- Secretary Kim.
- Yes.
Your brain consumes
a quarter of your calories.
What?
- I'm hungry because I used my brain.
- I'll bring you some snacks.
No, I know what I want.
Go to McDoria and get two expensive
and unpopular items off the new menu.
And two French fries.
- Make sure to get freshly fried ones.
- What?
Get an Americano with added shot
and a latte
with two added shots at Foursome.
No need to hurry. Take your time.
Two sugar packets and straws
and five napkins.
- Why all of sudden--
- Do it as I say.
Excuse me? Yes!
- Use the stairs, not elevator.
- What?
- Right now!
- Yes!
Why the stairs?
"Vice-chairman, Young-jun Lee."
Wow, you look different here.
You were always a younger brother to me.
Why did you come here?
We said hello the other day.
No reason.
I visited my agency for my new book
and I just dropped by on the way.
I almost forgot.
Do you want one? I got a few.
Well, you won't read it anyways.
Love stories don't interest you.
You should date a girl.
You get to know the real world
when you're in love.
I have other things to know about.
Stop being an asshole.
Can you leave?
I'm busy, as you can see.
All right. I see that you're busy.
See you later.
Thank you.
- The shoelace!
- Oh, yes!
- It's really nice to see you again.
- Yes, you too. Bye.
I regretted that I didn't ask
for your number. But to see you again
Maybe it's meant to be.
I'm sorry but I'm busy.
I'm busy getting anxious
that you won't give me your number.
MI-SO KIM
Bye.
What? It looks like a random number.
He's so persistent.
If he were Morpheus,
I would've given him my number.
Mr. Vice-chairman.
Here are hamburgers and coffee.
- I don't want them.
- Sorry?
You just asked me to get them
I just changed my mind.
Right.
I didn't know
that I had to join the meeting.
It's an emergency meeting.
Just don't overreact and read the room.
Yes, I'll be careful. My heart is racing
as I might make a mistake.
- Oh, my God, mine is, too.
- Huh?
Gwi-nam Go must be very tired.
Is he having a hard time at work?
Right, you said he's workaholic.
Yes, don't get me started.
Mr. Go, would you care to get a coffee,
it's a great pick-me-up.
I think working is the best pick-me-up.
A new task stimulates
my prefrontal cortex the most.
Okay?
What about a drink to release the stress?
- Sounds great!
- Gwi-nam?
I release the stress by working,
not drinking.
It's most stressful
to leave my work unfinished.
- Awesome! I respect him!
- Not yet.
There is more.
He bought ten of the same suits
and wears them each day.
He doesn't want to waste time on clothes
so he could work.
Awesome!
If only he could become a Se-ra-holic,
not a workaholic.
Yes, Kyeong-mun.
You have a grain of rice—
My son!
You said you'd come next week.
You're back early.
You returned after three years!
I would swim to come and see you.
You became more handsome.
You became more beautiful.
She should have when you think about
all the money she spent.
Please, it's only possible
when you're naturally born with it.
It's impossible for you
even if you spend your whole fortune.
- Have you seen Young-jun?
- Yes.
He still doesn't like me.
Don't say that.
It's just that he's not friendly.
He doesn't want to be friendly to me.
And I'm lacking, compared to him,
in many ways.
- This is Mi-so Kim.
- I'm calling about your message.
- This is the agency for Morpheus.
- Oh, yes.
I'm sorry, but he doesn't do
any promotional events.
Could you make sure he sees our proposal
at least?
I understand. All right.
Secretary Kim, Italian cuisine today?
I'm sorry, but I'm busy
with the opening event.
I know. I'm saying that you should treat
yourself with the corporate credit card.
Thank you for your kindness.
See you.
The interview with Morpheus?
I did it last year.
- Did you meet him in person?
- Via email.
I sent him the questionnaire
and he sent me back his answers.
Can you let me know his email address?
No way!
I promised to keep it confidential.
If you make a promise, you should keep it.
That's what you call "good manners."
Do you follow?
Yes, sure.
However,
you almost got sued for reporting falsely
on my boss's private life.
But I sorted it out for you
to avoid going to court. Do you remember?
What?
If someone helps you,
you should return the favor.
Isn't that what you call "good manners?"
Do you follow?
Yes.
Where did I put his email address?
Is it here?
Who would have thought
that his email is Morpheus?
Time to show off my skills.
Fantastic!
Do you like the whisky that I picked?
No, I like my reflection on the glass.
Enjoy it.
Right, you're moving up
the opening day of the art center.
You have a very positive drive.
Of all days, why did it happen
during my business trip?
I heard that there was a blackout.
- It must have been hard for you.
- Hard?
No, it was fun.
Fun?
Well, the blackout won't happen twice.
I'll make sure that it won't happen
ever again.
- You trust me, don't you?
- Thanks.
Do it right!
Why do all your photocopies
come out such a mess?
Because of you, I'm about to--
Please, Ji-ah, you tell me anytime
you ever need help.
- Here.
- Oh, yes.
It's the proposal
of the library opening event.
Thank you. I'll make sure
to bring it to Secretary Kim.
See you.
Gwi-nam Go looks more handsome
in the morning.
The rumor says he has ten of the same suit
and wears them each day.
Can it be true?
I heard it, too.
He doesn't want to waste time for clothes.
I don't think so.
I think it's the same suit
that he wore yesterday.
- A grain
- Shut up!
Are you slandering him?
Do you want a piece of me?
- I'm sorry.
- Go and work.
Get out of my way!
It's the proposal
for the library opening event
from the planning team.
It's so cliché.
How's it going,
the book reading you mentioned.
I'm still working on it, sorry.
Mr. Vice-chairman,
let me adjust your tie.
I'll do it myself today.
Okay.
Excuse me.
I need to answer this.
Okay.
All of a sudden, my heart
I should see a doctor soon.
My heart does not feel right.
I hope you were not too busy.
No, it's fine.
What's the occasion, anyway?
I wanted to give this to you.
Here, take it.
No, ma'am. You shouldn't have.
Just take it.
I bought it while I was shopping for mine.
Is Young-jun busy today?
He got a little busy with opening
the art center earlier than planned.
Then, he's probably not doing so well.
Would he be annoyed if I ask him
to have dinner with me?
No, he wouldn't.
He doesn't have any appointments tonight.
Really?
- Going home? I'll get the car ready.
- No.
I think I can go and talk to him.
Thank you!
Look, Young-jun.
This evening, why don't we
all get together and have dinner--
No, I can't.
How come?
Secretary Kim said you don't have
any appointments tonight.
- Did you meet her again?
- To give her a present.
Good for her to get a present.
I want to get one, too.
Young-jun, can you give me one?
For me, it's dinner.
- With you there.
- No, I can't.
I have gotten pretty old,
even if you can't notice it by my looks.
I only have two sons.
One lives abroad
and visits once in a couple of years.
I wonder how many times
we will get together before I die.
Please join the dinner!
Please, Young-jun.
I'm sorry.
- It didn't go well?
- No.
It's actually an occasion
that he doesn't want to attend.
He won't listen to me
no matter how I try.
There is no other way to--
Oh, no, my shoes got dirty.
Let me get you some tissues.
Here--
Where did she go without her purse?
Yes, ma'am. Your purse is--
Sorry?
Can you tell Young-jun
to bring it to the house tonight?
Oh, I got it. Yes.
Tell Mr. Yang to take it home.
No, she insisted
that you should bring it.
Whose side are you on?
My mother is more important to you?
No, you're more important to me.
That's why I'm telling you.
You are concerned about her.
I don't know why you're being stubborn.
Don't do anything
that makes you feel uncomfortable.
Try this, please.
I'm fine.
You're not saying that you're already full
even while you watch us eating.
No, she's been watching her figure lately,
so she eats like a bird for dinner.
Sure, you should make efforts
to keep in shape.
Young-jun, we should've invited
Mi-so to the dinner.
- Mi-so?
- His secretary.
She's the only person
he can trust and rely on.
I'm so happy
that she always stands by him.
She has a pretty name, Mi-so Kim.
She has a pretty face, too.
Before you go back to France,
- Invite her and--
- Oh!
Did you hear that the opening date
of the art center changed?
Yes, you decided it
because of New K Group.
Well done. You're a hustler just like me.
But doesn't it cause many concerns?
- I'm worried about your health.
- Take care of yourself.
Your health is most important
to our company.
Sure, don't worry.
Try this and don't just eat rice.
Try the beef rib. It's good.
Have some coffee.
Later. I'm working now.
You know, Mi-so Kim,
I am really curious what she's like.
How did she put up with you
for nine years?
What kind of girl is she?
You keep silent and say nothing.
Are you hiding her from me?
What? If I meet her
do you think I would date her?
Get out.
I don't get it.
You should be grateful
when I try to be nice to you.
Why should I?
You're still selfish.
Are you serious?
I said I'd forgive you.
Let's let bygones be bygones!
I'm doing this as a favor.
Is this how you forgive?
By always talking about it?
It's been more than 20 years
and I don't even remember it.
Young-jun Lee.
Why do you hate me so much?
I don't hate you. I just
despise you.
Don't give me that.
I would be in your place
if you hadn't done such a thing back then.
- Do you really think so?
- What?
You're weak and incompetent.
You are the kind of person
who bullies others to protect yourself.
Even if it hadn't happened at that time,
you'd never have made it.
You jerk!
What are you boys doing? Stop!
Stop! Please stop.
Stop, please. Stop.
Stop
Hello.
Hi, I emailed you
about a promotional event.
It's urgent, so can you check now?
Okay. I will.
PROMOTION PROPOSAL
FROM MI-SO KIM AT YUMYUNG GROUP
Oh, my God!
Mr. Vice-chairman!
What were you thinking that you didn't
even see me right in front of you?
What brings you here?
All the eggs are broken except one.
What are you--
What happened to your face?
- Nothing.
- Aren't you coming from your parents?
- Something happen on the way here?
- I'm coming from home.
Don't ask.
Let's disinfect it
so you won't have a scar.
Oh, my God! Wait!
Just 30 seconds or one minute!
It's been three minutes
Mr. Vice-chairman.
- My place is a little bit shabby.
- No.
It's very shabby.
Come in.
- I'm fine.
- I'm not fine.
You have lots of photo shoots coming up
and it'll be my fault
if anything goes wrong.
Follow me.
Can you come a bit closer?
Do not put on a band-aid.
It won't look nice on my face.
I won't put it on.
Where did you get it?
It doesn't look like an accident.
Did you have a fight?
I told you not to ask.
I'm sorry. I was just
Well
do you want to have noodles?
Noodles?
When you don't feel good, a bowl
of hot noodles makes you happy.
It's the best!
The unbroken egg!
I'll put it in your noodles.
MASTER JAPANESE
Homework. Memorize this with your life.
Executive Lee is a dick!
EVERY MOMENT WAS YOU
The childish book is here, too.
You know nothing about love.
But you do? You've never dated before.
I read about it a lot.
Impressive.
The water is boiling.
Why is it lying upside down?
No, don't! Not there!
Just stay like this for a bit.
I'm going to love you from now on.
I want to love you.
- A date?
- Yes.
That she asked to have noodles together,
which means, "If you eat it"
- I enjoyed the noodles.
- That means, "You and I are a couple."
Who is it?
Are you going out with a guy?
You're a writer, so very sensitive.
Do you know a popular restaurant?
A confession
Congratulations in advance.
When did you start to this?
Just don't do it.
