Hey, Byeong-gi!
Byeong-gi, the pink dress!
Soulishere?
It feels strange meeting you after only talking on the app.
How should I put it?
It's like seeing an animated character from my imagination
come to life.
I can't quite believe you're the same person as well.
It might take some time to get used to this.
Of course.
It's our first time meeting face to face, after all.
Technically,
it's not our first time.
We briefly met when I bought the rice cooker.
Oh, that's right.
-We saw each other for a moment. -Yes.
Go ahead and answer your phone.
Excuse me for a moment, then.
MR. LIM HYEON-JUN
It's okay. It's not an important call.
You know,
your voice sounds different than it does on the phone.
Really?
You sounded exactly like Kang Pil-gu when we talked on the phone.
Your Kang Pil-gu impression was so good,
I wondered if you really were him.
That's right, I did a Kang Pil-gu impression.
Don't you remember?
I think that was our first phone call…
The thing is…
Then,
do you remember the station where we met for the rice cooker deal?
The station where we met for the rice cooker transaction?
Seongil Station!
That was Seongil Station, right?
Then, do you remember which season of Kang Pil-gu
I said was my favorite?
Your favorite season of Kang Pil-gu was…
The best one, Season three.
Okay, last question.
Go ahead and ask.
-Let's circle back. -Okay.
When we first talked on the phone,
what was the Kang Pil-gu impression you did for me?
Let me think…
"You…"
What did you do? What was it?
"They say you can't fix people."
"But I do."
That's right!
So you do remember.
That's my favorite line.
-I'm sorry, but I need to message someone. -Of course.
Mr. Lim, why don't you go home?
I'll take care of this.
The weather is so nice today.
Gosh, look over there.
The sky looks amazing today.
Wow, are those all stars?
Damn it.
You're here from Onion, right?
I'm a fan of Lim Hyeon-jun.
Have you seen Kang Pil-gu in person?
-I have. -What did you think of him?
He was really cool, of course.
He's manly, yet still has that boyish charm.
I'm not married.
It's nice to hear your voice.
I feel the same.
Can you say a line from Kang Pil-gu?
Wow, how are you so good at impressions?
My gosh, you sounded just like him.
But she sounded like a completely different person.
Of course, I don't intend to apologize.
I don't even want an apology anymore.
It's ridiculous to cater to every tantrum
of a middle-aged man acting like a diva!
I can destroy you with nothing more than my writing.
That's right.
I don't want
your apology.
Seriously?
She was that rude to me, when she was my fan all along?
How does that make sense?
It's the first time in my life.
I've never liked someone so unconditionally.
We got off to a bit of an unusual start,
but I want to get to know you better.
Will you meet me in person?
I've been curious about something.
Why is your nickname "Soulishere"?
You see, my name is Wi Jeong-sin.
I thought "Jeong-sinishere" would sound a little strange,
so I went with "Soulishere" instead.
Oh, I see.
Your name is so unique.
I'm sure anyone who hears it once would never forget it.
My name is Bak Byeong…
Byeong?
It's Jun-gi.
By the way…
Thank you
for meeting me today.
It took some courage to ask you to meet me,
but I'm sure it took courage for you to show up today.
When you asked for some time to think it over,
I was really nervous waiting for your response.
I actually have something to tell you.
That's why I came here today.
Jeez.
Is everything going okay?
Darn it.
He writes dramas for a living, so he's probably handling it fine.
I was engaged to someone before.
While preparing for the wedding,
we bickered over household goods, the wedding venue,
and our honeymoon destination, which turned into arguments.
Then our arguments led to our parents arguing.
Eventually, it got to the point where both families opposed the marriage.
To be honest with you,
I don't think I'm ready to be with someone new.
Seeing someone while I'm still healing
would be unfair to that person.
So that's why you asked for time to think.
Thank you for reaching out to me first,
but I'm afraid
I'll have to say no.
Why the hell didn't you answer your phone?
Do you know how many times I called?
It would've thrown me off!
I told you I'd take care of it.
Why couldn't you just sit tight and wait?
It was an emergency situation!
An emergency situation!
Like what? Was she someone you knew or something?
Yes!
What?
EPISODE 9
You're home.
They say you can't fix people.
What's wrong with you?
But I do.
Jeong-sin, I have amazing news!
I passed my audition.
And it was for Good Detective Kang Pil-gu!
-Kang Pil-gu? -Yeah, I'm a rookie detective.
Awesome, right?
Good for you.
Congratulations.
That's it? This is worthy of an exclusive.
Not everything can be an exclusive.
Something happened today, didn't it?
No.
Congratulations.
Maybe she got turned down looking like that.
Jeong-sin, did that guy turn you down?
Yeah, he definitely turned you down.
Jeez.
Mr. Lim, can I please write a script about this?
Come on, Bak Byeong-gi.
Man, how could something like this happen?
It's like a movie.
A top actor does a secondhand trade and meets the buyer in real life.
But it turns out, it's someone he knows.
My gosh, Wi Jeong-sin.
Right.
I knew her name sounded familiar.
She's the reporter who wrote all those articles about you, right?
-Yes. -Right.
Isn't this actually a good thing?
You know exactly who she is.
I can't tell if this is a good thing or not.
The two of us don't get along in real life,
but we like each other on Onion.
I know that woman is this woman,
but that woman doesn't know I'm Lim Hyeon-jun.
This is just…
It's just a total mess.
Why are you smirking like that anyway?
What did you and Ms. Wi talk about?
Oh, right.
I ended it smoothly without going overboard.
The way I see it,
you won't get closure on this right away.
Take your time untangling the mess,
and in the meantime, let's focus on this week's shoot.
I added some more action sequences to the scenes.
Do you really want to talk about action scenes at a time like this?
Do you think I'm in my right mind to talk about action scenes?
Did you forget our promise already?
Do I have to play back the recording from earlier?
Why do you punks record everything these days?
Hey, Mr. Lim!
What?
What is it now?
Isn't it possible she sent someone else,
just like we did?
I just got chills.
I did too.
INVITATION: PRESS CONFERENCE FOR THE DRAMA "IMPERFECT LOVE"
Thank you for reaching out to me first,
but I'm afraid
I'll have to say no.
Darn it, I forgot again.
SPORTS EUNSEONG
It rained a lot today.
I hope you didn't get caught in it.
It's supposed to rain today.
Did you bring an umbrella?
Why has it been raining so much lately?
Mr. Lee.
Are you just getting off work?
Take this with you.
It's okay. You should take it.
Just take it.
Thank you.
Get home safely.
Does the rice cooker work?
If it doesn't, I'll give you a 100% refund.
It was nice meeting you earlier too.
What are you doing?
Serve up the rice.
I'm not eating.
What? You're not…
Why won't you eat? I already made dinner.
There was a nude scene in the movie.
Were those the actor's real buttocks?
No, we used a body double for that scene.
Mr. Kim Dong-jun, I heard you and your co-star didn't get along.
Could you clear up the rumors?
Those rumors aren't true.
Your face looks a little different.
Did you get Botox or fillers?
I just went on a strict diet.
You've been in a long-term relationship with actress Baek Da-yeon,
but there are rumors saying that you recently broke up.
Can you confirm if that's true?
We're here today
to talk about the movie Jobless and in Love.
So I'm afraid I'll have to pass on personal questions.
So you'll admit to the dating rumors but stay silent about the breakup rumors?
We'll move on to my question.
I'm Reporter Wi Jeong-sin from Sports Eunseong.
Your character, Hyeon-su, appears to be completely abandoned by society
and struggles with self-compassion.
I imagine you had your own struggles preparing for this role.
Can you share how you brought Hyeon-su to life on screen?
The first thing I did after deciding to do this film
was to cancel my plans with everyone.
I did that because in the movie,
Hyeon-su leads a socially isolated life.
The first thing I wanted to communicate to the audience
when I chose to work on this film…
Hello.
I'm from Sports Eunseong--
Reporter Wi Jeong-sin, right?
Could I get your business card?
Of course.
Here you go.
REPORTER WI JEONG-SIN SPORTS EUNSEONG
Thank you for your great question today.
I wanted to give a thoughtful answer, so I had to think it through.
I was afraid my response wouldn't measure up to the question.
To be honest, I was kind of scared.
Was my answer okay?
Read my article and you'll see.
The next time you work on a good project,
can I interview you again?
You'll be the first person I contact.
By the way…
my girlfriend and I are still together.
Technically, we're somewhere between dating and breaking up.
But I really love her, so I'm going to try harder.
Is that
something that's possible just by trying?
I don't know.
I'm just going to do my best
so I don't regret it later.
Is that something that's possible just by trying?
I don't know.
I'm just going to do my best
so I don't regret it later.
MELOMASTER
All right, let's do this!
We're all set, Director.
-We're rolling now. -Rolling!
Ready.
Action.
Wow.
It's just as I heard.
You're not a cop. You're just a thug with a badge.
It slipped my mind for a moment.
What?
They say you can't fix people.
But I do.
Nobody's a match for me when it comes to fixing people.
Damn it!
What the hell?
Come here.
Cut!
That was great.
Mr. Lim, this scene will be in slo-mo, so try to look cooler.
You're a bit too upright right now.
I'll show you how it's done.
You're avoiding the attack like this right now.
I need you to stay in the position, but sink down lower.
Don't hit the floor, though. Stop right before it.
And then do a front flip.
Like that.
Seok-ho, just trust Mr. Lim and go all in when you attack him.
-Lower? -Yes.
Okay, let's go again!
-Go for it! -You can do it!
You've got this!
-All right. Ready. -Ready!
-Action. -Action!
Darn it. No hands, right?
How was that?
Was it okay?
-Cut. -Cut!
-Again. Action. -Action!
-Cut. -Cut!
Are you okay, Mr. Lim?
Yes, I'm fine.
Okay, let's try that one more time!
-Let's try it one more time! -Hold on.
-Mr. Lim, get down a bit lower. -Be careful.
Hold on.
-All right. Ready. -Ready!
-Action. -Action!
-Are you ready? -Yes.
Hey, are you okay?
I don't think this will work.
Bro, are you sure you're okay?
I'm fine.
I just tweaked my back.
Tweaked, my ass.
It sounded like a bamboo branch snapping earlier.
Jeez, I said I'm fine.
Hey, that's good.
Forget it. We'll go with a stunt double.
What?
We can't do that.
There are a lot of medium close-ups in this scene,
so Mr. Lim has to do it himself.
-Mr. Lim. -Yes?
You can do this, right?
Yeah.
Let's go. Oh man.
Bro, what was that?
What do you mean?
Come on, you're acting weird.
Does the director have something on you?
Of course not.
It's me you're talking about.
Listen, Kang Pil-gu is me, and I'm Kang Pil-gu!
Do you know how important this scene is?
You…
-Are we shooting? -Come out when you're ready!
All right.
Something smells fishy, right?
Yes.
Do you want some more?
What's wrong with you?
ONION
Is that something that's possible just by trying?
I'm just going to do my best
so I don't regret it later.
I JUST ARRIVED. I'M WEARING A PINK DRESS.
Why are you just picking at your food and staring into your phone?
No, I'm not.
Have some fried chicken, everyone!
You must be getting hungry by now.
Please enjoy this together.
-Thank you! -We'll definitely enjoy it!
-This smells amazing! -I've been craving fried chicken.
Have some fried chicken, guys!
This is so good!
-Anyway, last time… -Yeah?
Did you hear that crunch?.
Right? It's so crispy.
So, is it good?
-Yes! -It's delicious!
-It's tasty. -Dip it in the sauce.
-It's so good. -You sure can eat.
It's seriously good.
Hey, so we meet again.
-Is the fried chicken good? -Yes, Mr. Lim. It's really good.
Come on, there's no need to be so formal.
What happened to the "I feel like I already know you" vibe?
I didn't know any better then. I'll be careful from now on, Mr. Lim.
You don't have to be careful!
Just relax, okay?
-Don't be so tense. -I'm relaxed, sir.
-That's right. Relax. -Hey, everyone.
-Hello, sir. -Hello, sir.
-Hey, have some fried chicken. -I've already eaten.
Mr. Lim, let me introduce you to our new cast members.
-This is… -That's our rookie detective
at the Gangseo Police Station, Wi Hong-sin.
I'm Rookie Detective Wi Hong-sin, sir.
-The rookie detective? -Yes.
Wait, then…
Who's playing the younger Pil-gu?
The younger Pil-gu?
Pil-gu… Where did he go?
-You auditioned for the younger Pil-gu. -Yes.
-Did your roles switch? -Yes.
There he comes.
-Why? -Mr. Lim, over there.
Hello, everyone.
I'm Lim Seon-u, and I'll be playing Kang Pil-gu's younger self.
I look forward to working with you.
I told you not to cast him!
Why bother asking me if you were going to choose him anyway?
Mr. Lim.
We're on set right now. There are crew members watching.
Look, Director.
If you were going to do whatever you wanted,
why did you ask my opinion to begin with?
I tried to go along with your wish,
but Wi Hong-sin just didn't resemble you.
It'd look as if he'd become a completely different person.
-It just wouldn't convince the viewers. -The viewers--
But luckily,
Hong-sin was a good fit for the role of rookie detective.
Try to be more understanding.
Good fit or not, he--
What's your problem with Lim Seon-u, anyway?
He'll be playing your younger self, so you won't even have to act with him.
I mean,
it's not that I have a problem with him--
Look, Mr. Lim. We have a lot of scenes to shoot today,
so I have to get ready. I hope you understand.
Wait, Director Bak, you can't just leave like this!
Bro, have a cold drink.
You really didn't know?
I didn't know. I just found out myself.
Are you sure?
Yes, I'm sure.
When I saw Seon-u on set, I went over to say hello.
Then he panicked and told me to keep quiet.
Turns out, he got the role he secretly auditioned for!
Darn it, I never should've done this!
I should have refused to do Kang Pil-gu once I made up my mind!
Tell them to find another actor for the role.
Come on, bro.
Tell the production company and Byeong-gi that Seon-u is my younger brother
and to switch him out!
If we do that, they'll just say, "Score! What a lucky break!"
Articles will be leaked,
and they'll use Seon-u for publicity!
Seriously.
Come on, bro.
Calm down and just keep filming.
That character doesn't even get much screen time anyway.
Just let Seon-u do it.
Like the director said, you two don't even share any scenes.
So I'm just supposed to act like I don't know him?
You're an actor, bro.
A veteran actor, at that!
Right?
Right.
So calm down and take a sip.
Have a nice cold drink.
There you go.
PLEASE TAKE GOOD CARE OF MY MOTHER!
Thank you for all your hard work.
-Thank you. -Enjoy!
-Thank you. -Thank you for the drink.
WE SUPPORT ACTRESS OH MI-RAN AND THE CREW OF GOOD DETECTIVE KANG PIL-GU
Thank you so much.
-Please take good care of my mother. -Thank you.
-Thank you!
Jeez.
He's so over the top.
Why? I think it's nice to see.
Sending a coffee truck is too much.
Hold on, we need to pose.
He's such a sweet guy.
He's just nice through and through, right?
Look at him. My gosh.
"Pil-gu leaps over a heap of scrap metal."
Hey.
Do you really think I can leap over a heap of scrap metal
with the state of my lower back?
Tell them to use a stunt double.
I'm just reading the script.
Excuse me. Ms. Oh is here.
Really?
Ma'am, how are you?
Hello.
-Mr. Lee, we meet again. -Yes, hello.
Please have this while you get ready.
We've already had some.
Right.
My son prepared it for me.
How is Ae-suk doing?
Oh, yes.
She's… Well…
You know, humans are such fickle creatures.
I'd rather not see anyone who remembers me from my struggling days.
Ae-suk probably wouldn't feel the same way because she was in her prime back then.
Hyeon-jun, just make sure we never have to cross paths again.
-Right, I'll… -Goodness,
I can't believe how handsome your son is!
He looks more like an actor than most actors do.
No, not at all.
Mr. Lim is much more handsome.
No, I'm not.
Well, please take good care of my mother.
I'm going to need your guidance myself, ma'am.
Sweetheart, don't call me "ma'am."
It makes me feel old when you say that.
Oh, then…
Call her Mi-ran, then.
-Mi-ran. -I like that.
Got it, Mi-ran.
Jeez, you're only getting better at paying lip service.
How ridiculous.
"You're even more handsome than an actor!"
Then you called her Mi-ran.
I felt embarrassed just listening to you.
You truly embarrass me.
That was no different from you asking me not to call you "bro."
How's your lower back?
I just tweaked it, that's all.
Jeez.
By the way, why do you want to see Ms. Wi when there's nothing to talk about?
I can always make something up to talk about.
Is there anything worthy of an exclusive?
Why don't you just announce that you're retiring then?
There's something I need to check
personally.
Isn't it possible she sent someone else, just like we did?
How have you been?
Good. It's been a while.
Yes.
You could say it's been a while, or maybe it hasn't.
What?
I mean…
Right, so…
You must've been surprised we called out of the blue.
Well, newsworthy things tend to happen out of the blue.
So why are we here?
Before we get into that,
I brought a gift.
Oh, right.
Goodness, this is just…
-This is… -Here we go.
And this too.
This right here…
GOOD DETECTIVE KANG PIL-GU
There's also this.
This is a limited edition.
And here's this.
Yes.
It's the first time in my life.
I've never liked someone so unconditionally.
If she likes me so unconditionally, what's with the reaction?
I suppose it'd be awkward to admit that she's my fan in this setting.
I understand.
-What? -What?
Never mind.
You brought Kang Pil-gu merch.
They're little things,
but they're practical items that can come in handy.
Since Ms. Yun probably doesn't need these,
why don't you take them all, Ms. Wi?
Okay. Thank you.
By the way,
-what's this? -You don't know what it is?
This is Kang Pil-gu's signature item.
"They say you can't fix people."
"But…
I do."
What are you doing?
Goodness.
He never does that. I don't know what's gotten into him.
I'm sorry.
You didn't look too well, so I thought you could use a laugh.
I need to use the restroom.
Yes, of course.
Hello?
Oh, you need me to move my car? Of course.
I'll move it right away.
But I have the car keys…
Onion!
Did you get home safely that night?
Jeez.
Wow, look at all these dishes.
Everything looks fresh.
So how did King's Back Entertainment and Purple Line Company
end up merging?
As you know, Chairman Lee Dae-ho
has been investing heavily in the entertainment industry.
He saw the value in our company,
so we're now joining forces with Purple Line.
Does that mean Mr. Lee Dae-ho will take an active role in management?
No, he has bigger priorities to attend to.
Why would he bother managing such a small agency?
People call Mr. Lee Dae-ho a media mogul,
but his newspapers make no profit and are essentially empty shells.
Do you even know where the investment funds are coming from?
No.
I didn't look into that…
What do we know about management?
Management is a job for the experts.
-We don't know much about that. -Right, we don't know.
Then shall we switch up the subject from business to entertainment?
Now that the two companies
representing Lim Hyeon-jun and Gwon Se-na have merged,
and since you're both in the same drama, some wonder if you're dating--
We're not!
I mean, it's not true.
The drama and the merger are completely unrelated.
That's a strange assumption to make.
My goodness, Ms. Yun.
It's not true.
Chief.
Do you know much about Mr. Lee Dae-ho?
I know enough since he's the one who signs my paychecks.
Don't do it.
Want to get kicked out our department too?
Of course not.
All right, then.
By the way,
wasn't Lim Hyeon-jun acting weird today?
I'm not sure.
I didn't notice anything weird.
Lim Hyeon-jun and Gwon Se-na.
Is there really nothing going on between them?
He said there wasn't, so I'm taking his word for it.
Reporters should approach with skepticism, not trust!
Especially without fact-checking!
I'm sorry. I'll look into it again.
Get in.
Something's definitely going on.
Excuse me.
Here's the report you wanted.
Ha Seong-min, Lee Ho-cheol.
-Come here. -Okay.
Did you get home safely that night?
Is that something that's possible just by trying?
I don't know.
I'm just going to do my best
so I don't regret it later.
I was wondering how to respond,
so it took me a while to reply.
MELOMASTER SOULISHERE
I've been feeling a bit down ever since that day.
Your mom's waiting for you.
Let's go.
Wait till I get my hands on him…
"That jerk hit me first!"
That's not the right tone.
"That jerk hit me first!"
"It's not just me. He bullies and swears at other kids too."
"I was just trying to stop him from taking their money."
Are you saying your nephew, Kang Pil-gu, is just "anyone"?
That's disappointing.
What if I get into the police academy?
If you get in, I'll eat my hat.
I can't let you eat your hat, so I guess I won't become a cop.
Onion!
I was wondering how to respond,
so it took me a while to reply.
I've been feeling a bit down
ever since that day.
Melo… I mean, Jun-gi.
Hearing about your broken engagement
made my heart ache.
What the hell?
"Broken engagement"?
That little bastard.
I can't ease all your pain,
-Bak Byeong-gi! You bastard! -but if it'll help even a little,
-Bak Byeong-gi! -I'd like to remain friends.
Bak Byeong-gi!
What the hell did you say to her?
A broken engagement? Are you kidding me?
You told me to end it,
so I made up a plausible yet typical and clichéd story!
"A typical and clichéd story"?
I was engaged to someone before.
Opposed the marriage…
I don't think I'm ready…
I'm afraid…
I'll have to say no.
Why'd you turn me into some guy whose engagement got called off?
And to top it off, I'm still not over my ex-fiancée?
I'm a totally chill guy!
I didn't know that woman and Ms. Wi were one and the same,
so I was trying to end it!
Had I known, I wouldn't have told a romantic story.
I would've gone with an open-ended thriller
or a more unique, mystery-like story!
-Are you kidding me? -Hey, that's expensive!
Hold it.
What did I just hear?
Why are you here?
I forgot Mr. Hwang was here.
I'll explain why I'm here later.
What was that all about?
What woman?
And what about Ms. Wi?
And who's this ex-fiancée?
Bro, were you engaged?
It's not like that, Mr. Hwang.
If you'll just let me explain…
I WAS WONDERING HOW TO RESPOND, SO IT TOOK ME A WHILE TO REPLY.
Why isn't he replying again?
MY LITTLE BROTHER
What is it?
Hey, you're coming home early, right?
-I'm working late. Don't wait up for me. -What?
-You're working late? Wait-- -Yeah.
But I'm making something delicious today!
How am I going to eat all this?
Darn it, Wi Jeong-sin!
GOOD DETECTIVE KANG PIL-GU
What's this?
GOOD DETECTIVE KANG PIL-GU
There are all sorts of things.
Hey, a towel.
GOOD DETECTIVE KANG PIL-GU
What in the world?
Here we go.
Yes, this is good.
Can't forget the handcuffs.
A true fan of mine would totally love this.
No way.
"They say you can't fix people."
"But…
I do."
Bro, have you lost your mind?
How could you meet someone on Onion in this day and age
without even knowing who might show up?
What are you, a child?
I thought only young actors were at risk
of getting caught up in school bullying or dating rumors.
Man, I never imagined you'd drop a bombshell like this.
It's not a bombshell.
Gosh, they say late starters really come on strong.
Were you trying to make up for lost time
since you couldn't have fun when you were younger?
-Mr. Hwang, calm down-- -Stay out of this, Mr. Bak!
You're no different! Both of you are so immature.
You should be grateful that the woman turned out to be Ms. Wi.
What would've happened if you'd met some lowlife?
Hold on.
So, you're saying
when you were grinning and texting on your phone,
you were actually on Onion.
And that woman was Ms. Wi?
I get it now!
That's why you wanted to give her an exclusive story!
Mr. Hwang, it wasn't like that.
Hush!
It wasn't like that, my ass!
Man, you really fooled me.
Look at you, bro.
So, what are your plans now?
Well…
I don't really know what to do next.
Hold on.
Wait a second.
Didn't you say Ms. Wi was your fan?
-Yes. -Then why'd she give you such a hard time?
I know, right?
I don't get it, either.
The truth is…
The truth is what?
It's fine. Tell the truth.
You said you were a fan of Lim Hyeon-jun.
I have an acquaintance who knows Lim Hyeon-jun.
Would you like to visit the set sometime?
Do you mean the Kang Pil-gu crew member?
Right, I already told you about this.
It's okay. You don't have to do that.
Is it because you've stopped being his fan?
No, it's not that.
Now that I think about it,
I think I was fooling myself.
Someone who's strongest in front of the bad guys.
Someone who's soft and caring to the weak and vulnerable.
Someone who acts like Superman and chases down bad guys
who harass the elderly or children.
Someone who looks rough but has a big heart…
full of tears,
and loves flowers.
I think that's the Kang Pil-gu I liked.
The one I fell for
was Detective Kang Pil-gu, driven by justice,
not the actor Lim Hyeon-jun.
Go ahead. Say it.
Can you both leave now?
I have a shoot tomorrow, and a ton of work to do.
-Director Bak. -Please leave.
-Director Bak. -Please go.
Okay. Follow me out.
If you won't leave, I'll help you out the door.
Jeez, why did you spill so much water?
Now, please leave.
Oh, man.
Jeez.
Gosh.
Oh, man.
Man, I'm so exhausted.
Gosh, what a long day.
Too long.
WI JEONG-SIN
-Hey, Su-ji. -Yes, I'm listening.
It's been a while.
I've always been here waiting for you, Hyeon-jun.
I found a USB,
and I want to check its contents.
What do you think?
If the USB belongs to someone else,
it's very likely that it contains personal information of that person.
Therefore, checking it without permission
would not be considered ethically right.
So it's unethical?
Yes.
I suppose that's true.
Right.
Then is there a moral and ethical way to look at this?
Why don't you ask for the USB owner's permission?
Are you kidding me?
You're so rigid, maybe because you're an AI.
Thank you for the compliment.
From now on, I'll provide even more ethically sound information.
Right.
-I should listen to you, Su-ji. -It's an honor--
SLIDE TO POWER OFF
It's not like it'll contain state secrets.
MY LITTLE BROTHER
Why the hell isn't she answering?
Come on, answer your phone! I came all the way here for you.
-What reporter doesn't answer her phone? -The person you are trying to reach…
How do I even get in?
Seriously.
Excuse me.
Do you happen to know Reporter Wi Jeong-sin?
Yes.
I know her.
What a relief.
The thing is, I tried calling her, but I guess she's busy.
Would you mind giving this to her?
I packed her a meal.
How do you know Ms. Wi?
I'm her younger brother.
I'm her one and only younger brother, Wi Hong-sin.
Nice to meet you.
Oh, is that so?
Yes, sir.
-Here, give me that. I'll take it to her. -Thank you.
Gosh, you've got a good personality.
I have a great personality, unlike my sister.
I didn't know Ms. Wi had such a handsome brother.
Are you close with Jeong-sin?
I guess you could say I'd like to get close.
I see.
May I ask your name?
Oh, I'm sorry.
My name is Lee Jae-hyeong.
-Nice to meet you. -Yes, sir.
Nice to meet you.
My sister's single, you know.
-Excuse me? -She was flirting with some guy,
but I think he turned her down.
I never asked, though.
For some reason,
I got the feeling it would be good to tell you.
-See you tomorrow, sir. -See you.
I think she's been working harder lately
to get over that guy who dumped her.
She's never been through a proper breakup,
so she might be bottling up everything inside.
I'm going back to Korea.
I'm sorry that I'm leaving when you're like this.
Forget about everything and focus on your treatment.
Hwa-yeong…
WI JEONG-SIN
When should I return this?
Damn it.
Jeong-sin, work hard and make lots of money!
SPORTS EUNSEONG
Everyone else left work hours ago.
Why are you still here?
Mr. Lee.
I had a lot of work.
Get in. I'll give you a ride.
I thought you were taking me home.
I never said I was taking you home.
Seriously though,
are you sure you won't regret missing out on a catch like me?
The truth is,
there's someone I like.
Does that person
like you too?
Seeing you can't answer, I'll take that as a no.
Doesn't that mean I have a chance?
Forget about that guy already
and come to me.
I'm right here in front of you.
I've always been here for you.
And I'm still waiting for you.
I'm curious.
How do you come up with lines like that?
You really seem like a player.
Jeez.
Seriously.
The person you are trying to reach…
Gosh, what reporter doesn't answer her phone?
The person you are trying to reach…
Thank you for the ride home.
Why do you have so many bags?
They're just my stuff.
Drive home safely, Mr. Lee.
Okay.
Thank goodness it's the weekend tomorrow.
Right?
-Are you kidding me? -Sleep well.
-And sleep in tomorrow. -Seriously?
Hey, it's Kang Pil-gu!
Hey, go ask him.
Excuse me.
Are you Kang Pil-gu?
I saw her with another man.
But why does that bother me so much?
You like Wi Jeong-sin, don't you?
We're on the same team now.
I'll do everything in my power to send her to the set of Kang Pil-gu.
Bro, why did you call Ms. Wi over here?
What if she runs into Director Bak?
Mr. Lim! Ms. Wi is here!
Damn it. Run!
Why are you so dense?
Do you really need me to spell it out for you?
I'm Melomaster.
