Backstreet Rookie (2020) s01e11 Episode Script

[Ji Chang-wook]
[Kim You-jung]
[Backstreet Rookie]
Do you know when I started
having feelings for you?
It was when you saved me.
It was 10 years ago.
Ever since that day,
I never once forgot about you.
But you don't remember, do you?
It's okay because I'll make sure
you remember that soon.
I'm going to make you remember that day
for the rest of your life.
Sleep tight, Mr. Choi.
Don't leave.
Saet-byul,
don't leave.
Don't leave me. I need you.
Mr. Choi Dae-hyun, you're under arrest
for violating the Food Sanitation Act.
[Police]
If the food expired, you should've
just given it to your friend.
How despicable.
I'll just settle. How much will that be?
Saet-byul, I
You've been delegated
the accused's authority, right?
Yes.
Saet-byul, get me out of here already.
I can't stay any longer.
-Oh, my. Mr. Choi?
-Yes.
You should've listened to me
when I told you.
Those who miss their chances like you
need some time in prison.
Please go by the law.
Saet-byul, why are you doing this to me?
Mr. Choi, have fun in prison.
-Hey
-Who shall I hang out with now?
Hang out with me.
I just happen to have handed in
my resignation letter today.
Shall we leave together, then?
-No, don't go.
-So long, sir.
Saet-byul, don't leave me!
I really hate eating prison food.
Saet-byul, don't leave!
Saet-byul, I need you. Saet-byul!
Don't leave me. I need you.
Please, don't leave me.
Mr. Choi, I'm not going anywhere.
Don't worry. I'll always be by your side.
Thank you, Saet-byul.
Thank you so much.
Hold on. If you want me by your side,
you need to move over.
My gosh.
Mr. Choi, I'm right here beside you.
Don't leave me, Saet-byul.
I didn't cross the line.
Yes, don't leave.
My head hurts.
I'm so thirsty. I need some water.
I'm so thirsty.
I feel like I'm going to die.
What's all this?
[I am Saet-byul's.]
Darn you, Saet-byul!
Does she want to fight?
[Mr. Choi! I'm going to go
and watch the store.]
[Make sure to clean up
every inch of yourself before coming.]
[From Saet-byul, your diligent employee.]
Sure, I'll make myself squeaky clean,
but you're dead when I see you later.
Ma'am!
Don't waste your energy.
Why would you run?
-No reason.
-Look at you.
Why do you look at me like that?
Did something good happen?
You look so happy.
-Really?
-Of course.
Goodness. You look so pretty.
You're at your prime.
You're blossoming like a flower.
Meanwhile, I'm sagging with age.
What are you talking about?
You're a blossoming flower yourself.
Sure I am!
You're the only person
who would say that to me.
All right. Here. Have a good shift.
I brought some watermelon.
You can have it.
Thank you so much.
-I'll be back.
-Have a good time.
-All right.
-Good luck!
-Good luck!
-Let's go!
You look beautiful.
Thank you!
I'll be back.
All right.
Here I go. This is where it all begins.
Hello, my Shinseong-dong
convenience store. How have you been?
How has everything been?
[Authorized Personnel Only]
What a mess.
What would he do without me?
I definitely don't like the display.
This is too much like Mr. Choi.
Let me change it up
to the adorable Saet-byul style!
[music]
I went to your place this morning
to pick up a file.
[Puppy, thanks for letting me sleep over.
From Saet-byul.]
And I was startled to see her
sleeping there.
I talked some sense into her,
and she willingly left.
Saet-byul?
Where are you? What's with all the noise?
-Saet-byul.
-Puppy!
Here. This way.
Don't mind what my director--
Do you want to try
the special promotion items of the month?
Are you working here again?
Puppy, I told you to not look at me
with those eyes.
Where are you sleeping?
I work night shifts.
You need somewhere to sleep.
Puppy,
if you're just here to nag, you can leave.
-Saet-byul, come here.
-Mr. Choi!
-Oh, my. Hello, Ji-wook.
-Hello.
What have you done to my face?
What am I going to do?
I can't do anything about your wrinkles.
Wrinkles? I'm talking about your doodles.
I can't get them off.
I can't erase this whole
"I am Saet-byul's."
That's correct! You're Saet-byul's.
Are you kidding me?
I'm leaving.
-Have a great day.
-You're leaving already?
Yes, I'm meeting someone soon.
Saet-byul, what are you going to do?
I washed my face at least five times,
and it's still there! How do I erase it?
-That must've hurt.
-How do I erase it?
Come here, you.
"Come here, you."
Come here before I get mad.
I know I'm normally gentle,
but I can be very scary when I'm mad.
Come here.
I wish she'd look at me like that.
Gentle? Do you not know what that means?
Come here and I'll show you.
Have I told you
that I used to do taekwondo?
-You're dead when I get you.
-Gee, how tough you must be.
You can't fool me!
Freeze! You can't move until I tag you.
Are you kidding?
You think we're playing tag right now?
You can't move.
Do you need me to stick you
inside the freezer?
What What's all this?
Why are these cup noodles
placed differently? Did you do this?
Of course. Who else would've been
this clever?
The placement is all wrong!
It's not wrong. It's finally right.
Nonsense. What about it is right?
I've changed your complicated display
to a very neat and easy display.
No, cup noodles have to be arranged
by their manufacturing companies.
No, they should be displayed
from the mildest to the spiciest.
[Spicy Fire Chicken,
Spicy Ramyeon, Neoguri]
That'll make it easier
for people to choose their cup noodles.
You have a point.
It's smart, isn't it?
From the mildest to the spiciest.
Let's see.
This is what's not okay.
Mr. Choi,
come right here.
I demand you to come here!
What are you doing?
Okay. I'm here. What is it?
What? What's wrong?
[Sales for This Month]
What's up with the sales?
Do you see how it has dropped drastically
ever since I quit?
I was
going through a lot of things.
Are you unable to separate
your work life from your personal?
At this rate, we'll be lucky if we can
even keep this branch open.
-Am I wrong?
-No.
And why is it so dirty?
I almost broke my back cleaning up!
I wouldn't come if I were the customer.
I'd go elsewhere.
There are so many convenience stores
around here.
You need to throw away things
that you don't need.
My goodness.
I guess everything you're saying is right.
That being said,
I've left something very useless
in that drawer over there.
Could you throw that away for me?
What would you do without me?
[Store Manager Jung Saet-byul]
This is
[Store Manager Jung Saet-byul]
Mr. Choi!
Why are you looking at me?
I was just asking you to get rid of that.
-Here.
-Why? You want me to throw it away?
You can put it on for me.
Me?
I'm being promoted from a temp
to a regular employee.
So, you put it on for me.
That'll make it meaningful.
Then,
I look forward to working with you,
Ms. Jung Saet-byul,
our newest regular employee.
That looks good.
-I'll work hard.
-By the way,
I have something to say to you.
What is it?
Well,
Saet-byul, from today on,
I
[I what? I love you?]
I
I
You can tell me. I'm ready.
All right.
Saet-byul,
I
signed you up for employee insurance.
Look!
You now have pension, health, employee,
and accident compensation insurance.
You have benefits to all four of those
from today on.
Well,
that sounds great and all,
but did you have
to stammer like that?
It's so important.
That's why I had to tell you like that.
What did you expect me to say? I what?
I love cup noodles? Candy?
Sichuan-style jjajang?
-What?
-"Hospitalized". That's a good one.
"I'm hospitalized for four weeks."
That's a good one, don't you think?
Hey!
Saet-byul,
you're the first one that I ever signed up
for insurance.
And this is my first time
getting insurance benefits.
Really? What an honor.
I'm honored as well.
Saet-byul, let's get to work.
What should we start with?
New drinks and baked goods arrived.
Sure, bring them all. I'm hungry.
You can't eat all of it.
Your regular employee will be right back!
Gosh.
[music]
[Gallery]
[Set as Wallpaper]
[Wallpaper Changed]
Hey, Saet-byul.
What shall we eat?
[Wait. His wallpaper changed.]
-Mr. Choi.
-Yes?
Did you
happen to break up because of me?
No. That's very bold of you to assume.
You're very full of yourself.
You're eating very well for someone
who just got dumped.
Hey.
I guess losing weight after getting dumped
isn't a thing for you.
I get it. There's a better woman
right beside you.
A better woman? Where?
I believe she's right beside you.
Beside me?
I guess I'm seeing a ghost.
Hello, darling.
You take a bite, then I'll take a bite.
You're so mean.
Remember how you did all that stuff
to me last night?
What? What did I do to you?
-You don't remember?
-Not even a single bit.
You were
Yes?
saying,
"Don't leave. Don't leave me, Saet-byul."
I can't believe
that I got scared for that.
I was in your dream, wasn't I?
Yes, you were.
But you weren't the only one.
[Police]
Who else was in your dream?
-Dae-hyun.
-I should've been the only one.
Seems like you've got some new products.
-Is it good?
-You're spying on me, aren't you?
Is that the only thing you can say
to your friend?
"Spying"?
Thank you.
[Store Manager Jung Saet-byul]
Saet-byul, you're a regular employee now!
That's right.
I'm his very first regular employee.
Amazing!
I'm Dae-hyun's very first friend.
Amazing!
Really? What a coincidence.
The new stuff is amazing!
[GS Retail]
We're planning on having Kang Ji-wook,
our private label product model,
work as a store manager for 25 hours
and we'll shoot a video of that.
We can use it for promotion
on social media.
That sounds like a great idea,
Director Yoo.
Why don't we call that
"All Heart for the Store"?
It means to have an unwavering heart
for his one store,
like our unwavering heart
for this company.
There's no such person.
How can people be loyal
to just one convenience store?
Even we go to the stores
from different brands sometimes.
Our goal is to get our customers
to prefer our stores more
as much as we can.
You can also say that in English.
As far as possible.
I've been studying English lately.
Hey. You can speak English too.
We're going to film it
at the new Gangnam branch.
I was thinking of this as the title.
[Go Star25]
That's a good one.
I can tell from this right away
that a celebrity is working at the store.
Great, then. Please pass the idea
onto Kang Ji-wook's agency.
-Will do.
-Good work.
You too.
[We've prepared this with thankful hearts
for your precious selves.]
That's my mom.
You finally did it. Congratulations!
I guess that happened.
Didn't you tell me that to become
the Queen of the Insurance,
you need a client to sign up
for a very big insurance plan?
Yes, I got two big deals.
Two?
How did that happen? Who's your client?
Just some people.
I was thinking,
since we're so thankful
for the clients who signed with you,
why don't we get them a gift?
I can get a good price on it
if it's on the inventory list
for the convenience store.
I'll take care of that myself.
I want to help you out,
my Queen of the Insurance!
What shall we give them? How about wine?
I feel like your clients are very rich.
Wine sounds good, doesn't it?
Dae-hyun, eat up quickly.
You have to get to work.
My store isn't what's important right now!
We need to decide on the gift.
The stew is getting cold. Eat up.
-Dad, what do you think of wine?
-Eat up.
-How about whiskey?
-Eat up already.
What? Are you eating something good
without me again?
Why are you back here?
I was nearby, and I thought I'd drop by.
-Dae-soon, do you want some rice?
-No, I'm good.
Hey, Dae-hyun. When is your girlfriend
coming over? I want to meet her too.
I'm her only sister-in-law.
I ought to meet her too.
I heard that she comes from a rich family.
Ask her family to buy
a few insurance policies from Mom.
She should stop bugging me about
a dental policy for my sister-in-law.
Stop talking about nonsense
when we're having a meal.
Dae-soon, look at this. Look.
Mom became the Queen of the Insurance.
What on earth? Mom, you really got it.
You really won!
Mom, you should ask
her family for a favor.
You should win the award
two times in a row.
Two awards in a row!
My gosh. This is amazing!
Oh, my. Look at that.
It's the plant you treasure.
Didn't your girlfriend buy this for you
when you opened the convenience store?
Gosh, she's supposed to get
all the love from her father-in-law.
But look at the plant.
It's all dry and scrawny.
-Gosh.
-You're too loud. Shut your mouth!
Let me eat my meal in peace, you brat!
I'll talk quietly then.
Dad, how's your new job?
Be careful not to get fired.
You should try to please your boss too.
Well, I don't have to tell you that.
You already know what to do.
Gosh, this is so good, Mom.
What kind of
What kind of vegetable is it?
Where did you get
that delicious vegetable?
Oh, my. You packed some
in a container for me to take.
Bye.
Oh, right. My husband bought
some eye cream for you from Paris,
but I forgot it at home.
I'll bring it next time. Enjoy your meal.
Bring it now! Go home and bring it now!
I didn't pack it up for you!
I put it in a container for us to eat.
Why are you taking it? You thief!
Mom, I've been thinking.
Why don't we give the wine
and the eye cream as presents?
All right. Eat up. Just eat your meal.
You look so nice in this photo.
Thanks. Now, put it down.
Just eat your meal and go. Dig in.
It's getting cold.
[Store Manager Jung Saet-byul]
What's she doing?
Mr. Choi.
Are you happy? Are you that happy?
You're smiling from ear to ear.
Of course. This has been my dream.
Dream, as if. My gosh.
Working with you has been my dream.
Saet-byul,
that brings me to this question.
How did you end up coming here
for the part-timer interview?
-Pardon?
-Did you come here knowing it's my store?
Or did I happen to be here
when you came for an interview?
[GS25]
-Hey.
-What?
I told you not to wear skirts.
-Hey. Do you want some steamed buns?
-Over there.
-Hey, this looks new.
-No, we're getting fish-shaped buns.
You're right. Gosh, it's big, isn't it?
-It's cold.
-Let's go.
You can hang it over there.
No, we should hang it there.
[music]
Really? I knew it.
The store looks beautiful.
[music]
[Part-timer Wanted]
I should tell you if you want to know.
Okay. So which one is it?
-One night, I had a dream.
-Okay.
-A spirit of a mountain showed up.
-A spirit?
"Saet-byul, you should be a part-timer
at that convenience store."
It was my calling.
I almost got cast for the supernatural
special on "How Is That Possible?".
As if. I'm not falling for that.
That's what you told me
when I asked you why you opened the store.
You have such a good memory.
By the way, when did you have this made?
You were so eager to kick me out.
Well
Look. I'm going to hire Saet-byul
as our regular employee.
[Store Manager Jung Saet-byul]
I completely approve.
She was chosen as the employee
of the month. We ought to do that.
Offer her the job today.
Gosh. How can I give her the position now
when she just became
an official part-timer?
Let's wait a little bit.
-And then, I'll offer her the job.
-Wait a little? Dae-hyun, listen up.
You must be nice to her
all the time. Okay?
Mom, I can't be nicer than now.
Be quiet. Be nicer to her.
-How can I be nicer?
-Put it over there.
Bring me kimchi.
One night, a spirit of a mountain
showed up in my dream.
-"Okay. Fine."
-"Dae-hyun. Fine."
This regular employee is
getting off work. I put in the order.
Okay. Go home now. Good work.
Go home and eat.
The doenjang stew is good.
I'm leaving.
Bye.
"Mr. Choi, you must keep
the convenience store safe."
"I'm leaving and going
to have the doenjang stew."
She's dropping the honorifics.
Had I known she'd like it this much,
I would've done it sooner.
[All right. Today, I'll introduce you
a tour of Zhangjiajie]
[which is the most popular
destination among Korean tourists.]
[We improved the quality,
but lowered the price.]
[A trip to Zhangjiajie
for 3 nights and 4 days]
[This all-inclusive trip is]
The restaurants and the hotel
don't look that fancy.
[is only 779,000 won.]
[It only costs 779,000 won!]
Hey, I like this package.
[You don't have to go
all the way to Incheon.]
[Departs from Gimpo]
[You'll be departing from Gimpo.
Let me repeat that.]
Well, he's our friend.
Let's ask him one last time.
[At Gimpo Airport]
Boon-hee, are you okay?
Why would I not be okay?
I'm the Queen of the Insurance.
Don't let what Dae-hyun said bother you.
I'm going to bed. I'll go in.
Okay. Let me massage your back.
-It hurts.
-Okay.
Hey, Tripe.
Put on Channel Eight now. Hurry.
What's the fuss about?
[The trip package to Zhangjiajie
is 779,000 won.]
We're going to book it now.
What about you?
You should go. Go with your friends.
You said it's your lifelong dream.
[There are only three minutes left.
Decide quickly.]
I told you, no. I'm not going.
Hang up, you punk.
[Dad, Mom's not answering her phone.]
[Tell her that I ordered
two expensive bottles of wine.]
What are you talking about?
The person who bought the insurance
policies was Yeon-joo's mom?
Why would she do that?
Dad, stay here. I'm going to tell Mom
and cancel the contract.
-Where are you going?
-What?
Do you expect me to do nothing, then?
Do you think your mother didn't know?
She put up with it
when she knew everything.
Well, I quit my job
because of my petty pride.
But your mother held back
her emotions and put up with it.
[Annuity, Name: Kim Hye-ja]
She didn't want to lose
and give that witch what she wanted.
Your mother is in great pain.
I'm telling you, so you act accordingly.
Got that?
Yes, Eun-ok. Look.
People around our age
must have dental insurance!
Yes. Why do you think people say
having good teeth is 1 of the 5 blessings?
Your husband has one?
My gosh. He shouldn't be
the only one with the insurance.
Do you think your husband
would chew the meat for you?
Yes.
I see. Really? Okay. Bye.
[Eun-ok]
Whatever.
Hello? What?
What happened, Dae-hyun?
Nothing happened.
Mom, why do you sound so surprised?
I was just surprised to get your call.
I just wanted to call you.
All the customers left, so I'm free.
And I wanted to listen to your voice.
What kind of trouble are you in?
I'm sure you're in trouble.
Just tell me what it is. Be honest.
My gosh, you don't seem
to trust me at all.
What is this about then?
Ms. Gong Boon-hee.
You know what?
I'll really be nice to you from now on.
I promise. So
give me some time.
Why are you suddenly telling me that?
You're all grown up now.
Right. I'm all grown up now. So what?
People grow up.
Okay.
Then, do a good job.
You don't need to take care of me.
Just do a good job with the store.
Run a good store.
Okay. I got it.
Mom, I love you.
Okay. Me too.
I love you too. Okay.
[music]
I put aside some time,
so I could talk to you, Aphrodite.
I never take breaks, you know.
I'm very worried about your health.
You should take breaks.
Evil people who taint this world
never rest.
So why must I rest?
Why?
Gosh, you have such a cool attitude.
It's not easy to be cool.
And if it's easy, it's not cool.
Fire Volcano.
Everything you say is a work of art.
I bet you got really good grades
when you were in school.
I bet you're well-educated too.
No. I never had private education.
But instead,
I was always inspired.
I really wonder
what you're like in person.
I
["I don't stand for black man's side".]
I'm neither on black
nor white people's side.
What?
So I mean to say
["One love, one heart, one destiny".]
"One heart, one love, one destiny".
"Destiny".
"Destiny"?
-Fire Volcano.
-Yes?
I can't do this anymore.
We should
-Let's meet.
-Aphrodite.
I want to meet you so bad
that it's driving me crazy.
I'm lacking in many ways.
No. To me, you're more than what I need.
Do you not want to meet me?
It's open.
What's wrong?
It's open. The door has opened.
The door to my heart has been shut
all this time.
My gosh. Who on earth opened that door?
You did.
What's wrong?
It's raining.
My heart is like a dry patch.
Who brought that rain?
You did.
-♫ Let's meet tomorrow ♫
-♫ Let's meet ♫
-♫ Let's meet tomorrow ♫
-♫ Let's meet tomorrow ♫
♫ I don't know what kind of
facial expression you have ♫
♫ On the other side of the call ♫
♫ I don't know, I'll never know ♫
-Aphrodite.
-Fire Volcano.
See you tomorrow.
Let's meet tomorrow.
Aphrodite.
Our love.
-Oh, gosh.
-Our enteral love.
I love it.
[Backstreet Rookie]
[Hotel and Residence Seoul]
[129, 759 won]
[Beautiful House]
[Hotel]
-My gosh.
-You startled me.
-What is it?
-Wait. Why are you looking up hotels?
Well, just because.
I didn't know you were such a man.
-I like that.
-Why do you like that?
This is for my parents.
For your mom and dad? Why?
Well, I just wanted to give them a treat.
You're a great son.
I like that. I approve.
-For what?
-For me.
Gosh, why are you here?
To give me the watermelon?
What? Well, I wasn't sleepy.
So I came to see you
in case you got bored.
Hey, you must be mistaken.
A regular employee gets a salary.
I don't pay you for overtime.
You're the one who's mistaken.
I didn't come here to work.
My gosh, Saet-byul. You must have
forgotten where you started.
This is awful.
You weren't like this before.
What are you talking about?
Hey, Saet-byul. Come here.
I have something to give you. Come here.
-Really? What is it?
-I have something.
-What is it?
-Just come.
What do you need to give me?
Look at this.
Hey, this is yours. And this is mine.
I ordered this to celebrate
your becoming a regular employee here.
Put it on.
Gosh, I ordered this online.
I thought it'd be a thin shirt,
but it's pretty thick.
This is why it's so hard
to order clothes online.
How is it? Let me see.
Hey, it looks great on you. It fits.
Mr. Choi, did you get
matching shirts for us?
Come on.
You're not supposed
to surprise me like this.
Seriously. It's the perfect fit.
This is my first time wearing
a matching shirt. And it's with you.
It's a uniform.
I want you to call this uniform.
-"Uniform"?
-Yes. It's a uniform.
Instead of treating our store
as a mere store from a franchise,
I want it to be treated as our workplace.
I run the place, and you work here.
It's a workplace.
I doubt it.
It does look like a matching shirt.
-Why are you being nice to me?
-So you do a good job.
-What else?
-What else?
What else
Let's work hard and make this
a successful convenience store. Okay?
Let's do this.
Okay!
I was going to let this slide.
But when I was in the military,
I was a drill sergeant. I taught rules.
Straighten it.
-My gosh, you're so petty.
-Let me teach you.
I'm not being petty.
I don't do this to anyone.
You're getting special treatment.
Just like this. Put your thumb
next to your index finger.
All right.
Lower your shoulders.
There.
Why are you giving me special treatment?
Well, because you're
Because you're a special employee.
That's how you salute, okay?
This is mine, so I'm going to eat it.
My gosh, he thinks I'm special,
so he got me a matching shirt?
I can't believe we have matching shirts.
I should wear this every day.
My goodness.
Well, if you think about it,
she really is a special person.
She's a special person
who brings me watermelon.
Being a special person is the same thing
as being a special employee.
[Mr. Choi.]
[I really love this shirt. It's the best!]
[But it's really hot.]
[music]
Sir.
Goodness. Here.
I'm sorry for asking you to come
so early in the morning.
But must I do that thing
for the convenience store brand?
Ji-wook, it's too late to reject it now.
We already told the head office
that you're going to do it.
We already discussed this yesterday.
I don't want to do it in Gangnam.
Can't we do it somewhere else?
What?
The Shinseong-dong branch in Jongno-gu?
Why there?
His friend works there.
The best employee and promotion queen?
That place isn't fit for the event.
I also said the same thing,
but Ji-wook can be very stubborn.
Still, we can't do it there.
Please convince him.
I'm sure you want to keep working with us.
No, let's try doing it
at the branch in Shinseong-dong.
Director Yoo.
Kang Ji-wook is the most important part
of our event.
The location shouldn't matter.
We should let him do it where he wants
in order to get better content.
I'll let you know after we check
with our Shinseong-dong branch.
Please relay the message to Mr. Kang.
Okay, I'll be off then.
-Bye.
-Okay, bye.
That was unnecessary.
There's no reason to avoid him.
We're trying to do business.
Don't worry. This is my first project
after getting promoted.
I just want to do a good job.
Okay. I wish you good luck.
-Mr. Choi.
-Yes?
Let's take a photo
to commemorate our matching uniforms.
Why just take 1 photo?
Go ahead and take 2.
-Open your vest first.
-What
-Our shirts need to show.
-Do they need to show?
Ready? In 1, 2, 3.
You're horrible at taking selfies. Look.
This is what you need to do.
You need to hold it far away.
Welcome
I'm Yoo Yeon-joo, the PR director.
I'm here to discuss something
with the manager here.
What is it about?
-We're planning--
-I should throw out the expired goods.
We're planning--
Saet-byul, everything down there
needs to be thrown away.
Check the expiration dates.
Sorry about that. What is it about?
A couple who broke up
meets again for work.
If this was a drama,
they'd get back together.
They pretend like they're okay,
but they actually long for each other.
Do you find this amusing?
I love watching soap operas.
I like the ones that air every morning.
I see.
There's even a part-timer,
so this is a perfect love triangle.
She's no longer a part-timer.
She's an employee now.
My gosh, Dae-hyun is unbelievable.
He must've used his power
to win her heart.
That cunning punk.
You make it sound so fun.
I know this is a very last-minute offer.
If you don't want to do it,
you're free to refuse.
It'll benefit our convenience store,
so there's no reason for me to refuse.
Does that mean you're going to do it?
But I don't think
I should decide this on my own.
I'll discuss it with Ms. Jung Saet-byul,
our official store manager.
Once we make a decision,
I'll call the head office.
Bye, then.
Saet-byul.
Hey, official store manager.
Yes?
Can we discuss something?
Let me throw this away first.
I know you heard everything.
[Expired]
Come over here.
Come here.
Aphrodite!
What took you so long
to appear in my life?
Fire Volcano is here.
♫ Let's be a man ♫
♫ And dress up in a suit ♫
Okay. Hello, Aphrodite.
I look so pretty.
♫ Today ♫
♫ I feel great ♫
My gosh, why does this keep happening?
This isn't that bad.
Hello, I'm Aphrodite My gosh.
Why does it sound so awkward?
Aphrodite.
I wasn't even this nervous
when I got kicked out of school
and when I returned to school.
Aphrodite.
Gosh, this won't do.
And to finish off my look,
I need my handbag.
But wait. Aphrodite.
How are we going to recognize each other?
Let's bring a rose.
Great. You can bring a red rose
since you're so passionate.
Then you can bring a blue rose
since you're so cool.
-Okay.
-Okay.
A blue rose.
Let's not forget that. Here.
Who am I going to meet today?
Who? Aphrodite!
♫ I'm off to meet her ♫
Ms. Jung, here's your coffee.
Saet-byul, why are you so down?
This isn't like you. You're always bright.
-Mr. Choi.
-Yes?
You were going to accept the offer anyway,
weren't you?
What do you mean?
Earlier, I was excited
because it felt like
you really cared about me.
But now that I think about it,
I feel like you used me
to make her feel rejected.
I feel like you did that
to make her feel bad.
I didn't know you'd think of it like that.
I don't think we should do this.
I'll call her and say we won't do it.
No, wait!
Were you really
going to follow my decision?
-Yes.
-Why?
Why do you think? They only asked us
because of Kang Ji-wook.
And he chose this place because of you,
so your decision mattered the most to me.
Is that so?
Will you be okay?
Why? Are you worried
I might not be over her?
Don't worry. I'm totally over her now
thanks to someone I know.
Me?
Thank you, Saet-byul,
for coming to the beach that day.
Gosh, I wouldn't have agreed to do it
if I was still a part-timer.
But now that I'm a regular employee,
I can no longer refuse
since it'll benefit our store.
So are we going to do it?
Should we not? Should we do it?
If we're really going to do this,
let's really do our best.
Let's show everyone
what a great place
this Shinseong-dong branch is.
Of course.
-Flower.
-What?
My goodness, exactly.
She's a fan of your work?
Are you sure it's a girl?
You called your friends and pretended
to be a girl to tease them.
Don't you remember that?
I'll call you back a little later.
Hey, honey!
Gosh, he had me so startled.
My gosh, come on.
What's that annoying woman doing here?
Darn it.
My gosh, seriously?
Why would he show his face to people?
Does he have no conscience?
Is she a bottle of ketchup or something?
She's so annoying.
Darn it.
[music]
No way.
No, it can't be.
I'm totally imagining things right now.
You can fall for anyone
but that monkey, Geum-bi.
[Jinx.]
Jinx.
[Hello.]
[I'm Fire Volcano, the webtoon artist
that draws "Her Reggae Boy".]
I have a bad feeling about this.
[music]
Tell me I'm wrong.
This can't be.
This has to be a dream.
This is a nightmare.
[music]
["Gone with the Wind"]
How dare you touch me, you jerk!
Why did it have to be you?
This is the worst!
Let me go, you thief.
Dae-hyun, are you cleaning?
Hey, Dae-hyun.
-Oh, gosh. What are you doing?
-Mom.
My goodness, what are you doing?
Let me go already.
-Why? Don't you like it?
-Let me go.
No, just let me go.
I get nervous
when something good happens, okay?
There's no need to get nervous.
What? Why did Dae-soon go
grocery shopping with you?
This thief came with me and made me
pay for everything like meat and japchae
so she could cook a birthday feast
for her husband.
What are you talking about?
I paid for the bean sprouts.
My gosh, fine. That was my mistake.
Thank you for the bean sprouts.
She only paid for the bean sprouts.
-That wench.
-I paid for the bean sprouts.
-I told you that so many times.
-Hey, guys.
-Hi.
-Hey.
You guys look great in your uniform.
-Right? Don't we look nice?
-Yes, you do.
Dae-hyun, where's mine?
-I even paid for the bean sprouts.
-Shut it.
Did you hear about
the shoot we're having in two days?
What? What are you talking about?
They're going to shoot a promotional video
at our store.
Kang Ji-wook is going to come.
-What?
-Kang Ji-wook, the actor?
-My goodness.
-Are you serious?
My gosh, really?
Didn't you tell them?
The head office wants to shoot
a promotional video here.
My gosh, is that going to make our store
famous again?
Why didn't you tell us?
-This is great.
-Yes, it is.
The person in charge is the PR director.
Yes?
Her name is Yoo Yeon-joo.
Is it the same person we know?
-Yes.
-Oh, her?
Let's go.
-You should have
-Come on. Let's go.
Then will I finally get to meet Yeon-joo?
No, don't come.
Don't ever come to the shoot. Don't come.
You little punk.
I know I've been easy on you lately,
but you're starting to get on my nerves.
What? What did I do?
-Gosh, my meat.
-What?
My meat.
My meat is with Dad.
I'll talk to you tomorrow.
Dad! Give me my japchae and meat!
-Dae-soon, don't come.
-The meat!
Don't come.
I didn't say anything because I didn't
want to tell my sister that I broke up.
Saet-byul.
During the shoot, should we cook the menu
that we invented together?
That sounds great.
Everyone will get shocked
at how good it tastes.
Then I'll to tell Mr. Kwon.
Okay. Yes, sir.
My goodness.
You did it right this time.
[music]
Great job.
-Thank you.
-Thank you.
You know you need to do way better
at the showcase, right?
-Yes.
-Yes.
Do your best, Fancy Girls!
-Okay, we'll do our best.
-Okay, we'll do our best.
-Eun-byul, come with me.
-Pardon?
Okay.
Puppy! My gosh!
You remember me.
Of course. Saet-byul told me.
You used to be so little.
When did you become so big?
You look older than Saet-byul.
I hate it when people say that.
I'm joking.
Good luck on your showcase.
I came to cheer for you. Good luck.
Good luck! Thank you, Ji-wook.
I'm meeting Saet-byul tomorrow.
Do you have anything to say?
No, I don't.
Tell her I have nothing to say.
Okay.
Saet-byul, it's me. Before I say anything,
you should thank me first.
Thank you for what?
I just met Eun-byul.
Gosh, thank you. Is she doing well?
I don't think you need to worry.
Are you ready for tomorrow's shoot?
Do you really have to do the shoot here?
You have no idea
how hard I'm working to clean the place.
Hey, I'm doing it against my will.
It'd be nice to have a friend next to me.
Don't you think?
Fine. I'll let it slide then.
-I have more news regarding Eun-byul.
-What's that?
I'll tell you tomorrow
if you're good to me.
-Hey, Puppy.
-See you tomorrow.
Why would I be good to you?
I should be good to Mr. Choi.
Hey, you should be cleaning.
-Hey, hurry up.
-They're here.
-Hello, sir.
-Hello, sir.
Hello, Director Yoo.
-Is everything going well?
-We're all doing our best.
Just a second.
Dae-hyun, come out here. Hurry.
Hello.
Mr. Choi, are you doing well?
Yes. Hello, sir.
Well Long time no see.
Thank you for letting us
do the shoot here.
Or maybe I should thank
Ms. Employee of the Month.
I should thank you too.
Thanks to you,
I became a regular employee here.
-Thanks to me?
-I was able to focus on the store
after you made me lose my promotion job.
If that didn't happen,
I'd still be running around
trying to get a part-time job.
Right, Mr. Choi?
Let's hear the briefing.
Okay, sir. Kang Ji-wook will be
working at the Shingseong-dong branch
-Hello.
-Kang Ji-wook is here.
-Hello.
-Hello.
-He's here.
-Hello.
My gosh, you look great today.
I guess you really are a celebrity.
-Will I be wearing that too?
-What?
This?
What
-Here you go, Ji-wook.
-Did you get one for me?
Actually, I ordered two for myself
since we sweat a lot during the summer.
Thank you for this.
My goodness, it looks much better on you.
Mr. Choi, I'll do my best
for the next 25 hours.
Me too.
I also have a mission.
What? What mission?
No one told me about a mission.
It's just something personal.
Oh, it's personal?
I'm not sure
if I'll be able to help you with that.
Ji-wook, take this.
Thank you.
Good luck, Ji-wook.
I'll do my best.
What kind of mission does he have?
Gosh, I'm so nervous.
What do you think?
We're wearing matching shirts.
It's a uniform.
Use the right term for it, okay?
By the way,
what's the news regarding Eun-byul?
I don't know. Don't ask.
What are you talking about?
You're the one who told me
What's wrong with you?
Come on. Tell me what it is.
Eun-byul and the other trainees
are having a showcase tomorrow.
"A showcase"? What's that?
It's when the agency gathers reporters
to promote the rookies.
Hey, that means
she's going to make a debut.
Isn't that what it means?
Gosh, this is so exciting.
My goodness, I'm already sweating.
She'll do well.
I'll keep taking care of her.
Once the showcase is over,
there will be articles about them,
and they'll be on social media.
You're Eun-byul's guardian angel.
Protect her well.
"Eun-byul's guardian angel"? Me?
Of course. You're the only person
who can help her.
Take good care of her.
She's my sister
which means she's your sister too.
Hey, get down here for a moment.
Let's do our best today.
-Okay.
-And tomorrow.
Got it.
How do I look today?
It looks nice.
[Store Manager Kang Ji-wook]
Mr. Choi and Ms. Yoo
seem a bit awkward with each other.
I guess you don't know.
They broke up.
Really? Why?
Who cares?
What matters is that they broke up.
Why are you so happy?
Of course, I'm happy.
It means I finally have a chance with him.
I've been waiting for ages
Hey, look.
Mr. Choi.
Good luck.
Good luck.
Hey, I should go tell him about Eun-byul.
Hey, Mr. Choi!
Mr. Choi!
Saet-byul, didn't I teach you
how to do a proper salute? What's this?
-Wait. There's something more important.
-What?
Eun-byul is making a debut tomorrow.
She's having a showcase or something.
My gosh, that's great.
Then is your sister a celebrity now?
That makes you a celebrity's sister.
Congratulations.
Hey, shouldn't we have a party?
Let's do that after she makes a debut.
Let's throw a huge party.
-A huge party.
-Yes.
What should we eat?
-Tripe, of course.
-Again?
That's the only place we can go.
If you eat too much tripe,
you might turn into one yourself.
-Let's eat something nice.
-Tripe is really good.
-Dae-hyun.
-Yes?
Can we get rid of the waste paper?
No, you can't.
I'll move that somewhere else.
-I'll go with you.
-See you later.
-Sir, let's go.
-Look over there.
-Amazing.
-It's him.
-Let me help.
-Seong-tae, it's okay.
-Go ahead. I'll do it.
-Okay. Good luck.
Okay, thanks.
Let me help.
That's okay, Ji-wook. I can do it alone.
No, let me help.
-Mr. Choi.
-Yes?
I wouldn't have asked to do the shoot here
if I knew you had broken up with Ms. Yoo.
Then no one would've
had to feel uncomfortable today.
It's okay, Ji-wook.
I don't feel uncomfortable anymore.
That's nonsense.
It looks like you're using Saet-byul
to get over your ex-girlfriend.
-And that makes me feel uncomfortable.
-What?
You're provoking Ms. Yoo by acting like
you're close with Saet-byul.
That's not very mature of you.
Ji-wook, I think
there's a misunderstanding.
If you're not planning
to date her seriously,
please don't do anything to confuse her.
I'm not saying this to you impulsively.
Ji-wook.
Why are you saying this to me?
Because I like Saet-byul.
What were you guys talking about?
-Ji-wook told me--
-Did something happen?
No, everything's fine.
The shoot is going to start soon.
Let's go, Mr. Choi. Come on.
