Dali and the Cocky Prince (2021) s01e05 Episode Script
Does Rain Seem Different From A Hotel Than A Motel?
1
Ms. Kim.
Ms. Kim, are you in there?
Ms. Kim.
It's me.
I knew you'd be here.
Something just didn't seem right.
I drove you to the hotel,
so what are you doing here?
Well, I
What is it? Do you not have the money?
I thought you sold your house.
Well
I had some work to do.
The exhibition is around the corner,
and I need to revise the proposal.
And the aid association.
I need to prepare a lot of things
if I want to make that happen.
You can do that at the hotel.
What?
Will you pay for the water
and electricity bills if you work here?
The electricity bill?
This museum may be under your name,
but utilities will be included
in the operating expenses.
Why must the museum be responsible
for your slacking?
This is appropriating museum money
for private use.
Appropriating museum money
for private use?
How can you not understand
that this is a private matter?
Pack your stuff and come out.
I'll drop you off at the hotel.
No, thank you.
I really have things I need to do tonight.
Only those
who are stupid pull all-nighters,
and those who aren't diligent
complain about working until late.
As a director, you should set an example
instead of working overtime.
What is this?
She didn't even turn on the lights?
She has no fear.
Mr. Jin, please.
Is this it?
You see
Don't tell me
you were going to stay here
because you didn't have the money.
No. I have money.
Come on. Let's go.
How did you know I'd be there?
Where else could you have gone?
You don't seem
to have friends to drink with
or relatives who regularly visit.
Give me your number.
My number?
I've been too laidback.
How could a creditor not know
his debtor's phone number?
Go on.
Press the "dial" button.
Don't delete my number
and make sure you save it.
And pick up on time.
-Don't misunderstand
-You're afraid I'll run away.
Like you said, I have neither friends
nor relatives who'd take me in.
So where would I go?
Don't you worry about that.
When my dad was alive, my life was teeming
with friends and family.
But now, I'm all alone.
Life is cruel like that.
People only maintain relationships
they can benefit from.
In your case, they could lose their money.
Of course, they'd leave.
Don't take it to heart.
So tonight, get a good night's sleep
in an expensive hotel room
and empty your mind.
After all, you're already deeply in debt.
One night at a hotel is
like a drop of pee in the ocean.
Gosh, I'm the best creditor out there.
I listen to your drunk ramblings,
pay for your drinks,
drive you to a pricey hotel
so you can rest up,
and lastly, buy you a hangover drink.
Here
Apparently,
it's brewed Oriental raisin tree.
It was the most expensive one,
so you better drink it
until the very last drop.
You can go now.
I need to see you go inside.
What if you sneak out again?
-Goodbye.
-Okay. Good
She should've just let me pay.
The employees are supposed to
get their paychecks tomorrow.
What should I tell them?
A refund?
Yes, please.
HEIGHTS MOTEL
Excuse me.
I'd like to spend the night here.
That'll be 90,000 won.
Go to Room 205.
Honey, which one's our room?
What? It's Room 203.
HANGOVER CURE
MR. JIN
Are you sleeping?
No. Not yet.
MR. JIN
Hello?
If you're still up, look out the window.
The window?
It's raining now. You didn't know, right?
Enjoy the view on a rainy night
before you go to sleep.
You paid a lot for that hotel room.
You should enjoy every bit of it.
Are you looking at it?
-Yes.
-Isn't the view amazing?
The hotel is famous for its night views.
Wait
That doesn't mean
I've slept at that hotel before.
I had an end-of-the-year party
with the restaurant branch owners
at the hotel.
That's how I know.
I have my own house.
Why would I sleep at a hotel?
The rooms cost a lot.
But of course, people can sleep at hotels
when they have no place to go
after moving out.
I just wanted to say
good night.
Don't let your thoughts consume you.
You too. Goodnight, Mr. Jin.
Okay
I'm hanging up.
You fool.
No. Not that. You can't take that money.
-No. Please!
-Get off me!
Stop it.
Darn it.
No. Please. You can't take that money.
SEONGDONG POLICE STATION
Cheongsong Museum of Art was sued?
Yes. I told you.
I don't think they were able to
make payments on time.
From what I've heard,
some thugs or loan sharks
have been coming to the museum.
I've been hearing a lot
about the museum lately. Haven't you?
Who knew Cheongsong Museum of Art
would go down like this?
Why didn't you tell me sooner?
Darn it. Move!
What was that? What's wrong with him?
I just found out, man!
KIM NAK-CHEON
Darn it.
DA-LI
-Hello?
-Is this Detective Joo Won-tak?
-Yes.
-Then do you know Ms. Kim Da-li?
Who?
So it was the part-timer at the counter.
And you remember his face too?
POLICE
Da-li. What
I'm her guardian.
I heard what happened.
So a motel employee did this.
He only worked there
for a few days as a part-timer.
Gosh
-Luckily, she remembers his face.
-Are you okay?
And we're inspecting the scene now.
I'm sure we'll catch him soon.
But she should consider herself lucky.
She can go home and recuperate at home.
-Then make a statement.
-How is she lucky?
Her body is covered in bruises!
No. Let me handle it.
Are you going to do your job
when people get severely injured or die?
-I mean
-You're unbelievable.
Aren't you cracking down
on these illegal motels right now?
Did you even do your job during patrol?
How can a robbery take place
during this period?
Are you really cracking down
on these places?
Besides, this happened hours ago!
Why aren't you done with the inspection?
Let go of me.
Are you okay? I'm sorry.
Why are you taking out on us?
-Unbelievable.
-It hurts.
She's hurt!
You must be busy.
I'm sorry to trouble you.
I could only get discharged
after paying my bill.
But he took my bag.
So you called me
because of the hospital bill?
Otherwise, you wouldn't have called me?
What?
Mr. Kim and you
Both of you are turning me
into an ungrateful jerk.
Hey. I had nowhere to go.
You and your father were the first ones
to take me in.
The only thing I knew was how to fight.
And you guys waited for me
to make something of myself.
You know what?
When I'm angry, happy, or hopeless,
I never think I'm alone.
You and your father
are the first people I think about.
But how come you don't do the same? Why?
Gosh
How could you not tell me a thing
when you had to go to a motel
because you had nowhere to go?
-Get in.
-Okay.
I know you've seen the place.
So I can't say it's better than a motel.
But it will be safe.
-So for the time being
-For the time being?
What?
Since you're helping me,
can you help me a bit more?
Saying "for the time being" is too short.
How about we say "for a while?"
Just get in already.
Okay
Wait until I catch you. You're dead meat.
"Good morning"?
You were just at a luncheon.
It doesn't matter what time it is.
I'm having a good morning now.
-Why?
-Because I just came to work.
Fine
Why is the admission fee
of a music camp so expensive?
It's for elementary school kids.
World-renowned pianists
are giving private lessons.
The price is very reasonable.
You need a recommendation
from a professor to even get in.
Not anyone can get in.
Right. How do you know that?
I used to go there for art
when I was young.
Gosh. I knew it.
People from rich families are different.
You must be having
a hard time financially too.
I heard your wife had quit her job
to look after your child.
Goodness. She needs to endure it
to raise the next Cho Seong-jin.
Speaking of which,
there won't be any issues
with our paycheck today, will there?
There shouldn't be.
These are our paychecks
we're talking about.
No way.
The employees at this museum
have a great sense of finances.
That's one thing I like about them.
Whether the museum closes or not,
whether the director sells her house
to prevent that or not,
who cares?
As long as you get your paycheck,
that's all that matters.
Amazing
Splendid
You're selfish,
shameless
very humane.
It's beautiful.
Artistic!
Wouldn't you say so, Mr. Han?
I didn't mean
Anyway
is our museum really closing?
Why are you asking me that?
Ask your director!
Where is Ms. Kim Da-li right now?
She just
Well
You don't know?
Didn't she come into work today?
I called her earlier for a meeting
but she didn't answer.
-That's it?
-Yes.
If she didn't answer,
you should be calling until she does.
-What are you doing? Call her again.
-Yes, of course.
Unbelievable
The phone is turned off. Please
The phone is turned off.
Call her again.
Never mind. I will.
Right there
I think that's the director.
Who's the guy?
Maybe her boyfriend?
What
I was late due to an external meeting.
I was going to ask about things
regarding the exhibition,
but it's not urgent so let's discuss it
at the next meeting.
You may go back to work.
Are you going somewhere again?
No
Any urgent business?
Why?
If you do, cancel it.
My agenda is very important.
Sit down. We're having this meeting.
Excuse me, Mr. Jin.
You said you would do as I said
unless you paid me back in a week.
Will you pay me back?
Please commence.
A plan for normalizing business operations
for Cheongsong Museum of Art?
What are you doing?
What?
Aren't you going
to take your sunglasses off?
Well
-I think it's a good idea.
-What?
We do need a plan.
Especially when it's about
Cheongsong's business operations.
I don't think we should quickly look
over such an important plan here.
I'll take it home and take a close,
careful look at it.
Without missing a single word,
and underlining parts as needed.
You can do it now
That's all for today's meeting.
But
the content is a bit odd.
"No working overtime.
No charging phones.
You're only allowed to use two sheets
of toilet paper?"
There's another one.
"Turn off lights in the exhibition rooms
when there are no guests."
That's
What do you mean
this is about business operations?
Are you serious?
You're right.
Saving such little money won't allow you
to go back to business as usual, right?
Your ideas are fun.
Then we should fire
at least half the staff.
Turn the remaining ones
into contingent workers.
Lower your paycheck to share the burden.
Then you'll really be able
to feel the pain of sacrifice.
Wouldn't you say so, Mr. Han?
That seems like a bit too much.
We're already running
with the least number of staff.
How can we cut even more?
We need to wring a dry rag at this point.
Wring a dry rag?
The expression is a dry towel!
I'm sorry.
Who cares if it's a rag or a towel?
You just need to wring it!
Stop it, Mr. Jin!
The employees should also know
about your current situation.
You running around everywhere by yourself
-isn't going to
-I said I'd review it.
I'll go over it carefully
and come up with a plan as well
by tomorrow.
Okay?
I guess.
A rag?
I'll try to save toilet paper.
-I forgot to mention
-What are you doing?
You should have knocked.
I'm sorry.
I didn't see anything.
What do you need?
I just
I thought I might need an access card
since I'll be working here.
Going back and forth
between work and the museum,
means I may have to come in early at times
or when everyone's already gone home.
I'll talk to Gong-ju about it.
I'll need two.
One for me and one for my assistant.
Certainly. Unless you have anything else,
please leave.
Did something happen?
No
Your phone was off.
It's broken, so I'm having it fixed.
It was working fine last night.
I dropped it this morning.
Aren't you uncomfortable in those?
It's due to a personal matter.
So if you're done,
please see yourself out.
What personal matter?
When someone says it's a personal matter
without specifying,
wouldn't it be because they either can't
or don't want to reveal things in detail?
A stye?
I want to get to work now.
Aren't you looking for a new place?
I'm sure you can't
live in a hotel forever.
So I looked into it.
I found a place.
-When?
-This morning.
-Where?
-My friend's house.
-Your friend who?
-Do I have to tell you?
-You said you had no friends.
-I do.
A woman?
A man?
Who is he?
The jerk who escorted you to
Mr. Jin.
I mean, as a creditor
You know my workplace and number.
Do you need my temporary residence?
This is an invasion of privacy.
An invasion of privacy? Hardly.
The world is a dangerous
and horrendous place,
so I am just trying to protect my asset.
It's not like I want to be nosy.
If something happens to you,
what about my two billion won?
Will you take responsibility?
Is your friend trustworthy?
I have to work.
Is your friend trustworthy?
That's the least you can share.
Do you have personal reasons
for not sharing that?
Yes, my friend is trustworthy.
Trustworthy, my foot.
There's no man worth trusting.
What a naive woman.
-What did she say?
-Oh my God!
What do you mean?
Didn't you go there to ask her who he is?
You rushed in desperation
as if your crush got a new boyfriend.
Who did that? I did?
For who?
No?
It's me, Jin Mu-hak.
And why would I have any feelings
for a penniless woman like her,
who is buried in debt?
Have you gone mad?
Forget it, then.
What? How are you convinced that easily?
I wanted to check
if there was one in a million chance.
A chance for what?
I mean, think about it, you two.
Yes, so what about it?
I mean, I Well
It's You know
Do I have to put it in words
to make you understand?
Yes, put it in words,
because I don't get it.
So I mean I
I mean, that You know.
What? What did you say?
Say it louder. I can't hear you!
Chak-hui.
I have to be somewhere,
so can you deliver this by yourself?
We hit it off so well
from the moment we met.
I think we're meant to be.
Where do you want to meet next time?
Excuse me. Chak-hui.
Chak-hui?
-Quiet.
-Quiet?
Do you know them?
Chak-hui?
Do you really think we hit it off well?
What?
I couldn't understand
half the things you said.
I get how you use
all kinds of difficult words
to show off all the knowledge
you crammed into your head.
But at the very least, shouldn't you have
brushed your teeth before coming here?
Your mouth smells like a restroom.
Darn it, my mouth
Wait, I
Chak-hui?
The lady in Seongbuk-dong
isn't very particular,
so just place it in the right location.
The deliveryman will do the rest.
Chak-hui?
All right.
We leave at 3 p.m.,
so I just have to be back by then, right?
Chak-hui, this
I'm on my way, so come on out.
Again? Why? I'm busy.
You can eat by yourself.
It's about Cheongsong Museum of Art.
Cheongsong Museum of Art?
What about Cheongsong Museum of Art?
Is there a problem? What is it?
What's your relationship
with Cheongsong Museum of Art?
What?
You were that thug
who invaded that museum, right?
The thug? Hardly.
There was a complication in our business,
but it's nothing.
I don't care for your business.
But why were you at a hotel
with Kim Da-li?
Do you know her?
Everyone in this industry does.
I see. Is she that well-known?
So why were you seen at a hotel with her?
I wasn't there with her.
I just gave her a ride there
when she got drunk.
How do you know that?
I was there at the same time.
I see.
Then why didn't you say hi?
So nothing is going on between you two?
Why do you care about
what's going on between us?
Did you just call me out
on a busy day to ask this?
Don't take advantage of my kindness.
You know that I'm very sharp
when it comes to dating, right?
Are you?
I know when someone has a crush,
when someone starts dating,
when A likes B, but B likes C, and so on.
I just know these things.
That's why I give
lots of dating advice too.
Then you should be working
at a matchmaking agency.
Why did you get a job at a gallery
only to become an outcast?
Iced Americano, please.
I realized something the moment I saw you
at the hotel that day.
Like the saying goes,
"A monk can't wash his own hair."
I see.
I've been curious about this for a while.
Why can't a monk can't wash his own hair?
Why? I can ask, right?
You have to have hair to wash it!
If you don't have hair,
what is there to wash?
Is that why?
That's not what's important.
Are you stupid?
Don't you get it?
I, Ahn Chak-hui, am confessing my feelings
for a man like you, Mu-hak,
a rich guy with no substance.
You're slow, ignorant, you bully others,
and you don't even know any idioms,
but I still like you, you idiot.
Hey, Chak-hui. Sit.
I'll persuade my dad
no matter what it takes.
I'll never hurt you.
So don't ever let me see you
walk into a hotel with another woman.
I have to get back to work.
Man, why is she suddenly saying that?
I have a lot going on already.
What?
You want another loan
with artwork as collateral?
Da-li, does our bank owe you any money?
If you used real estate as collateral,
it'd at least go up in value.
But artwork?
It just collects dust
and declines in value over time.
It's a headache to maintain too.
Which means it costs a lot of money!
Why can't she take a hint?
KWON SUN-PIL, KO YEONG-GYU,
KWON SANG-GUK
Hello, it's me, Da-li. Do you remember me?
Yes, it has been a while.
I'm actually calling today
Sir?
KIM YE-JI, KIM YUN-HYUN,
KIM GI-YUN, KWON GYEONG-HEON
Hello, it's me, Kim Da-li.
I'm not sure if you remember me.
Well, I'm calling today
to ask you for a favor
Are you leaving?
Goodness, hey.
Goodness, I'm sorry. Are you all right?
I'm fine.
-I had something on my mind.
-I see.
Here
Thank you.
Wait
Is there a problem over there too?
Yes, it's too worn out.
I'm already concerned
after seeing traces of an intruder
in the office and in the archives.
Why is the security camera down too?
I fixed it up for now,
but it needs to be replaced
with a new one.
Okay. Of course.
Hey
I have something to tell you.
Please come with me to my office.
You too, Mr. Hwang.
Me?
What? We're not getting paid on time?
That can't happen.
But I have bills to pay.
I have my loan interest,
my kid's academy, and living expenses.
My kid's also going to a camp this month.
Why aren't you guys speaking up?
Am I the only one panicking?
Am I the only one making ends meet?
Ms. Song, say something, will you?
You have to pay the hospital bills
and the caregiver.
You have it worse than I do, right?
I'm sorry. This is all my fault.
I promise to get the money ready
as soon as possible.
I'm sorry.
Do you really
not have the money?
Sorry?
I mean
It's just so hard to believe.
Gong-ju.
The clothes you are wearing.
Those sunglasses, shoes, and bag.
You do know that you could give us
three months' worth of pay
and still have some money left, right?
What? Three months?
So you have the money
to lavish yourself with gifts
but not enough
to pay for our little paychecks?
Do you seriously expect us
to believe that?
You're unbelievable.
There seems to be a misunderstanding.
I would never lie to you.
These clothes and this bag
are several years old.
I wouldn't spend your money
on lavishing myself.
Those shoes
came out this season.
And there are only three pairs in Korea.
Well
About these shoes
You may think
those shoes aren't expensive.
But people like us
spend the same amount of money
on eating, buying clothes,
and raising kids every month.
On top of that,
we even save a portion of it.
It's pretty much our lifeline.
How despicable.
Gosh. Gong-ju. My goodness.
Unbelievable. My gosh.
This is absurd.
Check out this area
around Cheongsong Museum of Art.
It's a limited development zone.
But since five to six years ago,
the lots around it have been purchased.
Look. Here, here, and here.
Do you know who owns them?
They're under a borrowed name,
but they're actually owned
by Assemblyman Ahn Sang-tae.
Ahn Sang-tae?
You know, that girl
who went on a blind date with Mu-hak?
You know, they dumped him
for being too stupid.
He said he dumped her.
What?
Anyway, he's been working
with the Land, Infrastructure
and Transport Committee
for seven years now.
Why would he buy this land
in the limited development zone?
What is it?
Will they lift the restrictions?
Bingo.
Seriously? They're going to lift them?
Keep this between us for now.
You know what'll happen
if others get wind of this.
It'll be disastrous.
Not even Mu-hak should know.
Okay
We shouldn't just focus
on taking over the museum
and selling it off.
We should set up
a construction business team
and jump into this new project.
Even if we do that,
I doubt we'll have a chance.
They must've gotten it all planned out.
If we don't have a chance,
we'll make one.
What?
I'll create our chance,
so you just need to get the money ready.
And keep this a secret for now.
I can't bury the truth.
Did he agree to it? Did he?
I told you to wait inside.
What are you doing here?
I was going to give him a good beating
if he said no.
He better not mistreat you
this time around.
Or else, I'll Gosh.
That's never going to happen.
I have a special card up my sleeve.
Tell me. What is this card
that's giving you so much confidence?
It's
Yes?
No. It's too incredible to share.
I'll tell you later, Mom.
What is it?
Ask Dr. Kim to provide us with a talisman.
An extremely effective one at that.
A talisman?
She used to work late,
but she left right away today
just because of what I said.
Gosh, where did she go?
I can't even reach her.
Let me go!
Hey, are you sure you searched thoroughly?
If it's neither at home nor the museum,
then where is it?
Where could that geezer have put it?
Look for it yourself
if you don't trust me.
-How dare you
-I'm going to quit working here.
What's the point of staying
when Director Kim is gone?
I'm not even getting paid anymore.
You're not getting paid?
So look for those documents
or those stamps yourself
instead of bothering me.
You can't quit.
Just shut it and stay here
until I fire you.
Stop being so insolent.
Who are you to order me around?
Me?
I'm the guy who knows the real you
and your dirty past.
Come on.
You must think
you're a real curator or something
just because you work at an art museum.
Should I expose all the things you did
after coming here?
I only did them because you told me to.
Is that so?
Will the world believe an orphan
who worked at a sleazy bar
or the eldest son of Cheongsong?
Gosh
I'm sure this isn't your first rodeo.
So why are you so stupid and unable to
learn from your past experiences?
Excuse me.
What's going on here?
Are you okay?
It has nothing to do with you.
Just go on your way.
She's an employee.
Of course, this concerns me.
Right? Don't you work at our museum?
"Our museum?"
Goodness. You're driving me crazy!
Look at this lowlife!
Darn it.
This is an expensive suit.
A lowlife? Come on.
Are you okay?
If you're scared, I'll walk you down.
I'm okay.
Darn it.
Where did he hide that? That old fart!
Darn it.
JEIL NEWSPAPER REPORTER SONG
Goodness, Reporter Song.
Your bed will arrive
by the end of this week.
Put up with this for a few days.
No, it's not uncomfortable. I'm okay.
You look very uncomfortable.
Until when will you wear those?
If I sleep here,
where are you going to sleep?
I'll sleep in the living room
or in the car. Anywhere with a roof.
In your car?
I'm always on stakeouts and work late.
I come back home just to change.
I mostly sleep at the station.
So don't worry about me.
Then I'll sleep in the living room.
Hey!
I'm the one who pays rent. I want the TV.
Have a conscience, will you?
By the way, the landlord
might not approve of this.
Who is he to approve it or not?
This is my house until my lease is up.
He seemed
like a difficult person last time.
Beyond that
he's a bit weird.
He seems pretty young too.
But he keeps pestering me
about the water and electricity bills.
Anyway, he's not normal.
What is it?
He sounds like someone I know.
You know someone like that?
Yes
What's this?
I was going to hold it off a bit longer
for making me worry about you.
I caught the guy.
What?
You were lucky
that we identified him quickly.
Otherwise, he would have spent all of it
before we caught him.
See?
This is the class of
the police force in Korea.
Why aren't you saying anything?
Da-li
What's wrong?
What is it?
I'm happy. That's all.
What a relief. Right, Won-tak?
I couldn't show my emotions the whole day.
But I had a really hard day today.
My employees
can't even pay their credit card bills
because of me
or send their kids to their academies.
So I made a lot of calls.
But it made me feel incompetent
and incapable.
But
I'm so glad.
This is great news. Right?
Aren't you sick of it?
It's time that we get a new piece.
Right. Yes.
Don't change the paintings
just for executives.
Change the artwork in the lobby,
cafeteria, and staff lounges.
My employees should admire art too.
I'll talk to Gallery Mond.
I just said I was sick of it.
Pardon?
To bring in a new look,
change the curator first.
Cheongsong Museum of Art will do.
What's this?
Why are these here?
Didn't you send them to Da-li?
Well, I think she moved.
She moved?
Then she moved out of the house?
Where did she move to?
Well
You don't know?
DA-LI
Her phone was off the whole day.
The phone is turned off.
You'll be directed to voicemail.
How can you let this happen?
I'm sorry.
She went to work at the museum.
I'm sure she's fine.
And you wanted me to look into the man
you saw at the department store.
He must be the creditor
who made a huge scene
at the museum recently.
So even thugs are following her now?
Yet, you think she's fine?
Come on.
You have nothing to do with Da-li
even if she moves or emigrates.
Stay away from her while I say it nicely.
How dare you worry about her?
That jerk.
"The Fall of Cheongsong Museum of Art?"
"Cheongsong Museum of Art is the symbol
of private museums in Korea."
"And it's been the bridgehead
in improving culture and art."
"After the sudden death
of Director Kim Nak-cheon,
the museum is about to close down
in less than a month."
"The museum has been in a financial rut
for a long time."
"And it caused loan sharks
to create a scene at the museum."
"And now, the museum has failed to pay
their employees as well."
"The incompetence of the new director
who failed to overcome the issues
is the problem."
"The new director, Ms. Kim Da-li,
the only daughter of the late director,
has failed to recognize
the severity of the situation."
"She pocketed museum assets
to shop for luxury items."
"When she went to a motel
with her new lover,
she was robbed and transported to the ER
according to her close acquaintance."
-What? She was robbed?
-How did this
"Just because
she's the late director's daughter,
an incompetent woman who has no interest
in running the museum took over the museum
that gets funding from our government."
"For the future of the art world,
it's time to question
her current position at the museum."
THE FALL OF CHEONGSONG MUSEUM OF ART?
Hello?
Is this Ms. Kim Da-li's phone?
It is.
This is Nambu Police Station.
I'm calling you regarding the burglary
at the motel.
Come to the station and report your case.
Sorry?
I thought the culprit
was caught yesterday.
What? The case wasn't even filed.
How can the culprit be caught?
Who told you that?
Don't tell me you were going to stay here
because you didn't have the money.
-I forgot to mention
-What are you doing?
You should have knocked.
I'm sorry.
When someone says
it's a personal matter without specifying,
wouldn't it be because they either can't
or don't want to reveal things in detail?
Mr. Jin, as I said before,
you need to knock before you enter
Is that article true?
What do you mean?
What are you doing?
I don't wish to discuss anything
other than business.
You sold your house.
You sold that necklace
or whatever at a high price.
You had money!
I took you to that hotel too. Why
That's enough.
I already know
how stupid and pathetic I am.
I needed that money,
but I pulled it out at that late hour
as if it was nothing.
I've been realizing
how much I've hit rock bottom
every single day.
-So you don't have to add to this.
-That money is nothing!
Why didn't you just hand it over?
It's not that important.
It's not this important!
You needed to save yourself first.
Do you realize
how dangerous it could've been?
You could've died!
You're a smart woman. Why don't you know?
Think of how devastated
your father will be to see you!
Did you say that money is nothing?
Why do you think everything happened?
It's because of money.
Isn't that the case for you?
You came and made a scene
in the exhibition room,
followed me to my hotel
in case I run away,
and ran over this early,
pretending to be worried
because of money.
No?
Isn't it?
I wonder if she had anything to eat
in the midst of all this.
I mean, is there something like,
"all of a sudden"?
DA-LI, I LIKE YOU
What do you need me to do for you?
Something seems weird.
The attitude of partnering companies
changed completely.
Who took
Is this how you manage your artwork?
You said no money
could buy a piece like that!
Ms. Kim.
Ms. Kim, are you in there?
Ms. Kim.
It's me.
I knew you'd be here.
Something just didn't seem right.
I drove you to the hotel,
so what are you doing here?
Well, I
What is it? Do you not have the money?
I thought you sold your house.
Well
I had some work to do.
The exhibition is around the corner,
and I need to revise the proposal.
And the aid association.
I need to prepare a lot of things
if I want to make that happen.
You can do that at the hotel.
What?
Will you pay for the water
and electricity bills if you work here?
The electricity bill?
This museum may be under your name,
but utilities will be included
in the operating expenses.
Why must the museum be responsible
for your slacking?
This is appropriating museum money
for private use.
Appropriating museum money
for private use?
How can you not understand
that this is a private matter?
Pack your stuff and come out.
I'll drop you off at the hotel.
No, thank you.
I really have things I need to do tonight.
Only those
who are stupid pull all-nighters,
and those who aren't diligent
complain about working until late.
As a director, you should set an example
instead of working overtime.
What is this?
She didn't even turn on the lights?
She has no fear.
Mr. Jin, please.
Is this it?
You see
Don't tell me
you were going to stay here
because you didn't have the money.
No. I have money.
Come on. Let's go.
How did you know I'd be there?
Where else could you have gone?
You don't seem
to have friends to drink with
or relatives who regularly visit.
Give me your number.
My number?
I've been too laidback.
How could a creditor not know
his debtor's phone number?
Go on.
Press the "dial" button.
Don't delete my number
and make sure you save it.
And pick up on time.
-Don't misunderstand
-You're afraid I'll run away.
Like you said, I have neither friends
nor relatives who'd take me in.
So where would I go?
Don't you worry about that.
When my dad was alive, my life was teeming
with friends and family.
But now, I'm all alone.
Life is cruel like that.
People only maintain relationships
they can benefit from.
In your case, they could lose their money.
Of course, they'd leave.
Don't take it to heart.
So tonight, get a good night's sleep
in an expensive hotel room
and empty your mind.
After all, you're already deeply in debt.
One night at a hotel is
like a drop of pee in the ocean.
Gosh, I'm the best creditor out there.
I listen to your drunk ramblings,
pay for your drinks,
drive you to a pricey hotel
so you can rest up,
and lastly, buy you a hangover drink.
Here
Apparently,
it's brewed Oriental raisin tree.
It was the most expensive one,
so you better drink it
until the very last drop.
You can go now.
I need to see you go inside.
What if you sneak out again?
-Goodbye.
-Okay. Good
She should've just let me pay.
The employees are supposed to
get their paychecks tomorrow.
What should I tell them?
A refund?
Yes, please.
HEIGHTS MOTEL
Excuse me.
I'd like to spend the night here.
That'll be 90,000 won.
Go to Room 205.
Honey, which one's our room?
What? It's Room 203.
HANGOVER CURE
MR. JIN
Are you sleeping?
No. Not yet.
MR. JIN
Hello?
If you're still up, look out the window.
The window?
It's raining now. You didn't know, right?
Enjoy the view on a rainy night
before you go to sleep.
You paid a lot for that hotel room.
You should enjoy every bit of it.
Are you looking at it?
-Yes.
-Isn't the view amazing?
The hotel is famous for its night views.
Wait
That doesn't mean
I've slept at that hotel before.
I had an end-of-the-year party
with the restaurant branch owners
at the hotel.
That's how I know.
I have my own house.
Why would I sleep at a hotel?
The rooms cost a lot.
But of course, people can sleep at hotels
when they have no place to go
after moving out.
I just wanted to say
good night.
Don't let your thoughts consume you.
You too. Goodnight, Mr. Jin.
Okay
I'm hanging up.
You fool.
No. Not that. You can't take that money.
-No. Please!
-Get off me!
Stop it.
Darn it.
No. Please. You can't take that money.
SEONGDONG POLICE STATION
Cheongsong Museum of Art was sued?
Yes. I told you.
I don't think they were able to
make payments on time.
From what I've heard,
some thugs or loan sharks
have been coming to the museum.
I've been hearing a lot
about the museum lately. Haven't you?
Who knew Cheongsong Museum of Art
would go down like this?
Why didn't you tell me sooner?
Darn it. Move!
What was that? What's wrong with him?
I just found out, man!
KIM NAK-CHEON
Darn it.
DA-LI
-Hello?
-Is this Detective Joo Won-tak?
-Yes.
-Then do you know Ms. Kim Da-li?
Who?
So it was the part-timer at the counter.
And you remember his face too?
POLICE
Da-li. What
I'm her guardian.
I heard what happened.
So a motel employee did this.
He only worked there
for a few days as a part-timer.
Gosh
-Luckily, she remembers his face.
-Are you okay?
And we're inspecting the scene now.
I'm sure we'll catch him soon.
But she should consider herself lucky.
She can go home and recuperate at home.
-Then make a statement.
-How is she lucky?
Her body is covered in bruises!
No. Let me handle it.
Are you going to do your job
when people get severely injured or die?
-I mean
-You're unbelievable.
Aren't you cracking down
on these illegal motels right now?
Did you even do your job during patrol?
How can a robbery take place
during this period?
Are you really cracking down
on these places?
Besides, this happened hours ago!
Why aren't you done with the inspection?
Let go of me.
Are you okay? I'm sorry.
Why are you taking out on us?
-Unbelievable.
-It hurts.
She's hurt!
You must be busy.
I'm sorry to trouble you.
I could only get discharged
after paying my bill.
But he took my bag.
So you called me
because of the hospital bill?
Otherwise, you wouldn't have called me?
What?
Mr. Kim and you
Both of you are turning me
into an ungrateful jerk.
Hey. I had nowhere to go.
You and your father were the first ones
to take me in.
The only thing I knew was how to fight.
And you guys waited for me
to make something of myself.
You know what?
When I'm angry, happy, or hopeless,
I never think I'm alone.
You and your father
are the first people I think about.
But how come you don't do the same? Why?
Gosh
How could you not tell me a thing
when you had to go to a motel
because you had nowhere to go?
-Get in.
-Okay.
I know you've seen the place.
So I can't say it's better than a motel.
But it will be safe.
-So for the time being
-For the time being?
What?
Since you're helping me,
can you help me a bit more?
Saying "for the time being" is too short.
How about we say "for a while?"
Just get in already.
Okay
Wait until I catch you. You're dead meat.
"Good morning"?
You were just at a luncheon.
It doesn't matter what time it is.
I'm having a good morning now.
-Why?
-Because I just came to work.
Fine
Why is the admission fee
of a music camp so expensive?
It's for elementary school kids.
World-renowned pianists
are giving private lessons.
The price is very reasonable.
You need a recommendation
from a professor to even get in.
Not anyone can get in.
Right. How do you know that?
I used to go there for art
when I was young.
Gosh. I knew it.
People from rich families are different.
You must be having
a hard time financially too.
I heard your wife had quit her job
to look after your child.
Goodness. She needs to endure it
to raise the next Cho Seong-jin.
Speaking of which,
there won't be any issues
with our paycheck today, will there?
There shouldn't be.
These are our paychecks
we're talking about.
No way.
The employees at this museum
have a great sense of finances.
That's one thing I like about them.
Whether the museum closes or not,
whether the director sells her house
to prevent that or not,
who cares?
As long as you get your paycheck,
that's all that matters.
Amazing
Splendid
You're selfish,
shameless
very humane.
It's beautiful.
Artistic!
Wouldn't you say so, Mr. Han?
I didn't mean
Anyway
is our museum really closing?
Why are you asking me that?
Ask your director!
Where is Ms. Kim Da-li right now?
She just
Well
You don't know?
Didn't she come into work today?
I called her earlier for a meeting
but she didn't answer.
-That's it?
-Yes.
If she didn't answer,
you should be calling until she does.
-What are you doing? Call her again.
-Yes, of course.
Unbelievable
The phone is turned off. Please
The phone is turned off.
Call her again.
Never mind. I will.
Right there
I think that's the director.
Who's the guy?
Maybe her boyfriend?
What
I was late due to an external meeting.
I was going to ask about things
regarding the exhibition,
but it's not urgent so let's discuss it
at the next meeting.
You may go back to work.
Are you going somewhere again?
No
Any urgent business?
Why?
If you do, cancel it.
My agenda is very important.
Sit down. We're having this meeting.
Excuse me, Mr. Jin.
You said you would do as I said
unless you paid me back in a week.
Will you pay me back?
Please commence.
A plan for normalizing business operations
for Cheongsong Museum of Art?
What are you doing?
What?
Aren't you going
to take your sunglasses off?
Well
-I think it's a good idea.
-What?
We do need a plan.
Especially when it's about
Cheongsong's business operations.
I don't think we should quickly look
over such an important plan here.
I'll take it home and take a close,
careful look at it.
Without missing a single word,
and underlining parts as needed.
You can do it now
That's all for today's meeting.
But
the content is a bit odd.
"No working overtime.
No charging phones.
You're only allowed to use two sheets
of toilet paper?"
There's another one.
"Turn off lights in the exhibition rooms
when there are no guests."
That's
What do you mean
this is about business operations?
Are you serious?
You're right.
Saving such little money won't allow you
to go back to business as usual, right?
Your ideas are fun.
Then we should fire
at least half the staff.
Turn the remaining ones
into contingent workers.
Lower your paycheck to share the burden.
Then you'll really be able
to feel the pain of sacrifice.
Wouldn't you say so, Mr. Han?
That seems like a bit too much.
We're already running
with the least number of staff.
How can we cut even more?
We need to wring a dry rag at this point.
Wring a dry rag?
The expression is a dry towel!
I'm sorry.
Who cares if it's a rag or a towel?
You just need to wring it!
Stop it, Mr. Jin!
The employees should also know
about your current situation.
You running around everywhere by yourself
-isn't going to
-I said I'd review it.
I'll go over it carefully
and come up with a plan as well
by tomorrow.
Okay?
I guess.
A rag?
I'll try to save toilet paper.
-I forgot to mention
-What are you doing?
You should have knocked.
I'm sorry.
I didn't see anything.
What do you need?
I just
I thought I might need an access card
since I'll be working here.
Going back and forth
between work and the museum,
means I may have to come in early at times
or when everyone's already gone home.
I'll talk to Gong-ju about it.
I'll need two.
One for me and one for my assistant.
Certainly. Unless you have anything else,
please leave.
Did something happen?
No
Your phone was off.
It's broken, so I'm having it fixed.
It was working fine last night.
I dropped it this morning.
Aren't you uncomfortable in those?
It's due to a personal matter.
So if you're done,
please see yourself out.
What personal matter?
When someone says it's a personal matter
without specifying,
wouldn't it be because they either can't
or don't want to reveal things in detail?
A stye?
I want to get to work now.
Aren't you looking for a new place?
I'm sure you can't
live in a hotel forever.
So I looked into it.
I found a place.
-When?
-This morning.
-Where?
-My friend's house.
-Your friend who?
-Do I have to tell you?
-You said you had no friends.
-I do.
A woman?
A man?
Who is he?
The jerk who escorted you to
Mr. Jin.
I mean, as a creditor
You know my workplace and number.
Do you need my temporary residence?
This is an invasion of privacy.
An invasion of privacy? Hardly.
The world is a dangerous
and horrendous place,
so I am just trying to protect my asset.
It's not like I want to be nosy.
If something happens to you,
what about my two billion won?
Will you take responsibility?
Is your friend trustworthy?
I have to work.
Is your friend trustworthy?
That's the least you can share.
Do you have personal reasons
for not sharing that?
Yes, my friend is trustworthy.
Trustworthy, my foot.
There's no man worth trusting.
What a naive woman.
-What did she say?
-Oh my God!
What do you mean?
Didn't you go there to ask her who he is?
You rushed in desperation
as if your crush got a new boyfriend.
Who did that? I did?
For who?
No?
It's me, Jin Mu-hak.
And why would I have any feelings
for a penniless woman like her,
who is buried in debt?
Have you gone mad?
Forget it, then.
What? How are you convinced that easily?
I wanted to check
if there was one in a million chance.
A chance for what?
I mean, think about it, you two.
Yes, so what about it?
I mean, I Well
It's You know
Do I have to put it in words
to make you understand?
Yes, put it in words,
because I don't get it.
So I mean I
I mean, that You know.
What? What did you say?
Say it louder. I can't hear you!
Chak-hui.
I have to be somewhere,
so can you deliver this by yourself?
We hit it off so well
from the moment we met.
I think we're meant to be.
Where do you want to meet next time?
Excuse me. Chak-hui.
Chak-hui?
-Quiet.
-Quiet?
Do you know them?
Chak-hui?
Do you really think we hit it off well?
What?
I couldn't understand
half the things you said.
I get how you use
all kinds of difficult words
to show off all the knowledge
you crammed into your head.
But at the very least, shouldn't you have
brushed your teeth before coming here?
Your mouth smells like a restroom.
Darn it, my mouth
Wait, I
Chak-hui?
The lady in Seongbuk-dong
isn't very particular,
so just place it in the right location.
The deliveryman will do the rest.
Chak-hui?
All right.
We leave at 3 p.m.,
so I just have to be back by then, right?
Chak-hui, this
I'm on my way, so come on out.
Again? Why? I'm busy.
You can eat by yourself.
It's about Cheongsong Museum of Art.
Cheongsong Museum of Art?
What about Cheongsong Museum of Art?
Is there a problem? What is it?
What's your relationship
with Cheongsong Museum of Art?
What?
You were that thug
who invaded that museum, right?
The thug? Hardly.
There was a complication in our business,
but it's nothing.
I don't care for your business.
But why were you at a hotel
with Kim Da-li?
Do you know her?
Everyone in this industry does.
I see. Is she that well-known?
So why were you seen at a hotel with her?
I wasn't there with her.
I just gave her a ride there
when she got drunk.
How do you know that?
I was there at the same time.
I see.
Then why didn't you say hi?
So nothing is going on between you two?
Why do you care about
what's going on between us?
Did you just call me out
on a busy day to ask this?
Don't take advantage of my kindness.
You know that I'm very sharp
when it comes to dating, right?
Are you?
I know when someone has a crush,
when someone starts dating,
when A likes B, but B likes C, and so on.
I just know these things.
That's why I give
lots of dating advice too.
Then you should be working
at a matchmaking agency.
Why did you get a job at a gallery
only to become an outcast?
Iced Americano, please.
I realized something the moment I saw you
at the hotel that day.
Like the saying goes,
"A monk can't wash his own hair."
I see.
I've been curious about this for a while.
Why can't a monk can't wash his own hair?
Why? I can ask, right?
You have to have hair to wash it!
If you don't have hair,
what is there to wash?
Is that why?
That's not what's important.
Are you stupid?
Don't you get it?
I, Ahn Chak-hui, am confessing my feelings
for a man like you, Mu-hak,
a rich guy with no substance.
You're slow, ignorant, you bully others,
and you don't even know any idioms,
but I still like you, you idiot.
Hey, Chak-hui. Sit.
I'll persuade my dad
no matter what it takes.
I'll never hurt you.
So don't ever let me see you
walk into a hotel with another woman.
I have to get back to work.
Man, why is she suddenly saying that?
I have a lot going on already.
What?
You want another loan
with artwork as collateral?
Da-li, does our bank owe you any money?
If you used real estate as collateral,
it'd at least go up in value.
But artwork?
It just collects dust
and declines in value over time.
It's a headache to maintain too.
Which means it costs a lot of money!
Why can't she take a hint?
KWON SUN-PIL, KO YEONG-GYU,
KWON SANG-GUK
Hello, it's me, Da-li. Do you remember me?
Yes, it has been a while.
I'm actually calling today
Sir?
KIM YE-JI, KIM YUN-HYUN,
KIM GI-YUN, KWON GYEONG-HEON
Hello, it's me, Kim Da-li.
I'm not sure if you remember me.
Well, I'm calling today
to ask you for a favor
Are you leaving?
Goodness, hey.
Goodness, I'm sorry. Are you all right?
I'm fine.
-I had something on my mind.
-I see.
Here
Thank you.
Wait
Is there a problem over there too?
Yes, it's too worn out.
I'm already concerned
after seeing traces of an intruder
in the office and in the archives.
Why is the security camera down too?
I fixed it up for now,
but it needs to be replaced
with a new one.
Okay. Of course.
Hey
I have something to tell you.
Please come with me to my office.
You too, Mr. Hwang.
Me?
What? We're not getting paid on time?
That can't happen.
But I have bills to pay.
I have my loan interest,
my kid's academy, and living expenses.
My kid's also going to a camp this month.
Why aren't you guys speaking up?
Am I the only one panicking?
Am I the only one making ends meet?
Ms. Song, say something, will you?
You have to pay the hospital bills
and the caregiver.
You have it worse than I do, right?
I'm sorry. This is all my fault.
I promise to get the money ready
as soon as possible.
I'm sorry.
Do you really
not have the money?
Sorry?
I mean
It's just so hard to believe.
Gong-ju.
The clothes you are wearing.
Those sunglasses, shoes, and bag.
You do know that you could give us
three months' worth of pay
and still have some money left, right?
What? Three months?
So you have the money
to lavish yourself with gifts
but not enough
to pay for our little paychecks?
Do you seriously expect us
to believe that?
You're unbelievable.
There seems to be a misunderstanding.
I would never lie to you.
These clothes and this bag
are several years old.
I wouldn't spend your money
on lavishing myself.
Those shoes
came out this season.
And there are only three pairs in Korea.
Well
About these shoes
You may think
those shoes aren't expensive.
But people like us
spend the same amount of money
on eating, buying clothes,
and raising kids every month.
On top of that,
we even save a portion of it.
It's pretty much our lifeline.
How despicable.
Gosh. Gong-ju. My goodness.
Unbelievable. My gosh.
This is absurd.
Check out this area
around Cheongsong Museum of Art.
It's a limited development zone.
But since five to six years ago,
the lots around it have been purchased.
Look. Here, here, and here.
Do you know who owns them?
They're under a borrowed name,
but they're actually owned
by Assemblyman Ahn Sang-tae.
Ahn Sang-tae?
You know, that girl
who went on a blind date with Mu-hak?
You know, they dumped him
for being too stupid.
He said he dumped her.
What?
Anyway, he's been working
with the Land, Infrastructure
and Transport Committee
for seven years now.
Why would he buy this land
in the limited development zone?
What is it?
Will they lift the restrictions?
Bingo.
Seriously? They're going to lift them?
Keep this between us for now.
You know what'll happen
if others get wind of this.
It'll be disastrous.
Not even Mu-hak should know.
Okay
We shouldn't just focus
on taking over the museum
and selling it off.
We should set up
a construction business team
and jump into this new project.
Even if we do that,
I doubt we'll have a chance.
They must've gotten it all planned out.
If we don't have a chance,
we'll make one.
What?
I'll create our chance,
so you just need to get the money ready.
And keep this a secret for now.
I can't bury the truth.
Did he agree to it? Did he?
I told you to wait inside.
What are you doing here?
I was going to give him a good beating
if he said no.
He better not mistreat you
this time around.
Or else, I'll Gosh.
That's never going to happen.
I have a special card up my sleeve.
Tell me. What is this card
that's giving you so much confidence?
It's
Yes?
No. It's too incredible to share.
I'll tell you later, Mom.
What is it?
Ask Dr. Kim to provide us with a talisman.
An extremely effective one at that.
A talisman?
She used to work late,
but she left right away today
just because of what I said.
Gosh, where did she go?
I can't even reach her.
Let me go!
Hey, are you sure you searched thoroughly?
If it's neither at home nor the museum,
then where is it?
Where could that geezer have put it?
Look for it yourself
if you don't trust me.
-How dare you
-I'm going to quit working here.
What's the point of staying
when Director Kim is gone?
I'm not even getting paid anymore.
You're not getting paid?
So look for those documents
or those stamps yourself
instead of bothering me.
You can't quit.
Just shut it and stay here
until I fire you.
Stop being so insolent.
Who are you to order me around?
Me?
I'm the guy who knows the real you
and your dirty past.
Come on.
You must think
you're a real curator or something
just because you work at an art museum.
Should I expose all the things you did
after coming here?
I only did them because you told me to.
Is that so?
Will the world believe an orphan
who worked at a sleazy bar
or the eldest son of Cheongsong?
Gosh
I'm sure this isn't your first rodeo.
So why are you so stupid and unable to
learn from your past experiences?
Excuse me.
What's going on here?
Are you okay?
It has nothing to do with you.
Just go on your way.
She's an employee.
Of course, this concerns me.
Right? Don't you work at our museum?
"Our museum?"
Goodness. You're driving me crazy!
Look at this lowlife!
Darn it.
This is an expensive suit.
A lowlife? Come on.
Are you okay?
If you're scared, I'll walk you down.
I'm okay.
Darn it.
Where did he hide that? That old fart!
Darn it.
JEIL NEWSPAPER REPORTER SONG
Goodness, Reporter Song.
Your bed will arrive
by the end of this week.
Put up with this for a few days.
No, it's not uncomfortable. I'm okay.
You look very uncomfortable.
Until when will you wear those?
If I sleep here,
where are you going to sleep?
I'll sleep in the living room
or in the car. Anywhere with a roof.
In your car?
I'm always on stakeouts and work late.
I come back home just to change.
I mostly sleep at the station.
So don't worry about me.
Then I'll sleep in the living room.
Hey!
I'm the one who pays rent. I want the TV.
Have a conscience, will you?
By the way, the landlord
might not approve of this.
Who is he to approve it or not?
This is my house until my lease is up.
He seemed
like a difficult person last time.
Beyond that
he's a bit weird.
He seems pretty young too.
But he keeps pestering me
about the water and electricity bills.
Anyway, he's not normal.
What is it?
He sounds like someone I know.
You know someone like that?
Yes
What's this?
I was going to hold it off a bit longer
for making me worry about you.
I caught the guy.
What?
You were lucky
that we identified him quickly.
Otherwise, he would have spent all of it
before we caught him.
See?
This is the class of
the police force in Korea.
Why aren't you saying anything?
Da-li
What's wrong?
What is it?
I'm happy. That's all.
What a relief. Right, Won-tak?
I couldn't show my emotions the whole day.
But I had a really hard day today.
My employees
can't even pay their credit card bills
because of me
or send their kids to their academies.
So I made a lot of calls.
But it made me feel incompetent
and incapable.
But
I'm so glad.
This is great news. Right?
Aren't you sick of it?
It's time that we get a new piece.
Right. Yes.
Don't change the paintings
just for executives.
Change the artwork in the lobby,
cafeteria, and staff lounges.
My employees should admire art too.
I'll talk to Gallery Mond.
I just said I was sick of it.
Pardon?
To bring in a new look,
change the curator first.
Cheongsong Museum of Art will do.
What's this?
Why are these here?
Didn't you send them to Da-li?
Well, I think she moved.
She moved?
Then she moved out of the house?
Where did she move to?
Well
You don't know?
DA-LI
Her phone was off the whole day.
The phone is turned off.
You'll be directed to voicemail.
How can you let this happen?
I'm sorry.
She went to work at the museum.
I'm sure she's fine.
And you wanted me to look into the man
you saw at the department store.
He must be the creditor
who made a huge scene
at the museum recently.
So even thugs are following her now?
Yet, you think she's fine?
Come on.
You have nothing to do with Da-li
even if she moves or emigrates.
Stay away from her while I say it nicely.
How dare you worry about her?
That jerk.
"The Fall of Cheongsong Museum of Art?"
"Cheongsong Museum of Art is the symbol
of private museums in Korea."
"And it's been the bridgehead
in improving culture and art."
"After the sudden death
of Director Kim Nak-cheon,
the museum is about to close down
in less than a month."
"The museum has been in a financial rut
for a long time."
"And it caused loan sharks
to create a scene at the museum."
"And now, the museum has failed to pay
their employees as well."
"The incompetence of the new director
who failed to overcome the issues
is the problem."
"The new director, Ms. Kim Da-li,
the only daughter of the late director,
has failed to recognize
the severity of the situation."
"She pocketed museum assets
to shop for luxury items."
"When she went to a motel
with her new lover,
she was robbed and transported to the ER
according to her close acquaintance."
-What? She was robbed?
-How did this
"Just because
she's the late director's daughter,
an incompetent woman who has no interest
in running the museum took over the museum
that gets funding from our government."
"For the future of the art world,
it's time to question
her current position at the museum."
THE FALL OF CHEONGSONG MUSEUM OF ART?
Hello?
Is this Ms. Kim Da-li's phone?
It is.
This is Nambu Police Station.
I'm calling you regarding the burglary
at the motel.
Come to the station and report your case.
Sorry?
I thought the culprit
was caught yesterday.
What? The case wasn't even filed.
How can the culprit be caught?
Who told you that?
Don't tell me you were going to stay here
because you didn't have the money.
-I forgot to mention
-What are you doing?
You should have knocked.
I'm sorry.
When someone says
it's a personal matter without specifying,
wouldn't it be because they either can't
or don't want to reveal things in detail?
Mr. Jin, as I said before,
you need to knock before you enter
Is that article true?
What do you mean?
What are you doing?
I don't wish to discuss anything
other than business.
You sold your house.
You sold that necklace
or whatever at a high price.
You had money!
I took you to that hotel too. Why
That's enough.
I already know
how stupid and pathetic I am.
I needed that money,
but I pulled it out at that late hour
as if it was nothing.
I've been realizing
how much I've hit rock bottom
every single day.
-So you don't have to add to this.
-That money is nothing!
Why didn't you just hand it over?
It's not that important.
It's not this important!
You needed to save yourself first.
Do you realize
how dangerous it could've been?
You could've died!
You're a smart woman. Why don't you know?
Think of how devastated
your father will be to see you!
Did you say that money is nothing?
Why do you think everything happened?
It's because of money.
Isn't that the case for you?
You came and made a scene
in the exhibition room,
followed me to my hotel
in case I run away,
and ran over this early,
pretending to be worried
because of money.
No?
Isn't it?
I wonder if she had anything to eat
in the midst of all this.
I mean, is there something like,
"all of a sudden"?
DA-LI, I LIKE YOU
What do you need me to do for you?
Something seems weird.
The attitude of partnering companies
changed completely.
Who took
Is this how you manage your artwork?
You said no money
could buy a piece like that!
