♪ Come watch me ♪

Okay, now...

A dead person is doing a livestream?

And all they're doing is talking?
Nothing else, though?

The dead guy, you mean?

[sighs]

Yup, I understand that.
Well, thank you for your report, sir.

[man sighs]

[sighs] Three days?

What is she, then? Rising like Jesus?

[man] What's wrong now?

Another crazy call from some weirdo.

I mean, they were rambling
about some dead chick resurrecting.

They said they're live now?
That was our fourth one today.

[man] Imagine coming back from the dead.

- Who's the lucky corpse?
- I don't know.

Some big e-celeb. Seo A-ri.

What?

Haven't you been online?

That's what they call people
who are famous on social media.

Not that.

Did you say Seo A-ri?

Yeah, I believe
that's the name they gave me.

Seo A-ri's livestreaming right now?

You sure it's her?

[man] So are you Ms. Seo A-ri?

Yeah.

Why did you ask me to come down here?

Why would you ask us that? Huh?

You two are the ones wasting our time
on what sounds like a private matter.

[pensive music playing]

It seems that the police
weren't the ones not doing their job.

Ah, I thought they had chosen
not to call me despite your report,

but turns out you never filed one.

You seem like an upstanding citizen.
So what happened?

Could your integrity have shifted?

Hold on. What are...
What is happening right now?

[Jun-kyoung] 010-0040-0291.

"The police. Are they ignoring me?"

So from my perspective,
not only did she not call me,

that same person with my number
ignored my DMs.

Quite intriguing if you ask me.
Makes me wonder what's going on.

That's why I turned myself in.

Suspect and victim.

Thought I might as well see you.

[man sighs]

So you turned yourself in
so the suspect could confront the victim?

You treated me like I was some kind
of molester when we first met.

I just had no idea how to reach you.
So I sought some government intervention.

Korean cops certainly are deeply dedicated
to their service.

Who are you exactly?

Well, I can tell you I'm not a molester.

Seems like our encounter
really struck a nerve.

That's not quite so. Hmm.

That dress you wore
made me think you were someone else.

- But seeing your response...
- So what do you want from this?

You want me to get down and beg?

Are you trying to use the cops
to intimidate me?

What's that?

Why else would you bring along
this entourage? Are they just for decor?

Wow, your influence runs really deep.
I don't know how rich your daddy is,

but I guess it pissed you off
to get chewed out by a commoner.

Is that why you put on this show?

[whimsical music playing]

That was not my intention whatsoever,
but you think I was showing off?

Oh wow.

Really leaning into that part
of the victim, huh?

[A-ri inhales]

Okay, then.
Let's say I am the victim here.

So what do we call
what you're doing right now?

What do we call this whole charade
if it's not showing off to you?

You've turned yourself in, right?
You picked the wrong girl to mess with.

Not only am I the real victim here,

I'm a crazy b*tch, whose life revolves
around playing the victim!

Excuse me, sir.

[sighs] I'd like to report this pervert.
He's sexually harassing me.

As his victim,
I'd like to file an official complaint.

[A-ri breathes deeply]

[A-ri] You want to know
how I felt that night?

[sirens wailing]

Huh. What's the point of telling you?
I always felt pretty shitty.

[phone buzzing]

Jeong-sun, right now really isn't
a great time for me to talk.

[A-ri] But you know what's funny?

What? What's going on?

Let me hang up, and I'll take a look.

[A-ri] That's the day I learned
the third cheat code for this world.

[dramatic music playing]

You know what word I'm talking about.

It's a word that excites people.

And has the power to bewitch them.

MASS PURCHASE EVENT WITH THE LUCIES!

At times, it may even make them feel
like they're at the center of the world.

But the reality is

the only power that word has
is to make everyone totally delusional.

You know that word.

[scribbling]

[Jeong-sun] Holy sh*t,
this is totally insane.

We're being flooded
by orders by the minute.

Sales are off the hook right now!

And it's all because
of Min-hye's livestream?

Oh my God, I told you already.
That's the power of an e-celeb for you.

[sighs] So how many orders
have we gotten since then?

Let me check.

- [footsteps approaching]
- [A-ri exhales]

[woman exhales]

We hit the jackpot, girls. Hmm?

How come you've never mentioned
your famous friend before now?

- We weren't really close.
- [phone ringing]

Oh, and another call.
[chuckles] Good work.

- Hi, how can I help you?
- [alert chimes]

[A-ri exhales]

[gasps] A-ri, you got another like!
That's awesome!

What're you doing?
Why do you have my phone?

Wow, things are really kicking off here.

Look, you got 80 likes on your photo.

Photo? What? I haven't posted any photos.

Your best friend uploaded some for you.
I only picked the classiest ones.

[whooshes]

And in my long quest
to find your best pics,

you needed a smidge of spice,
if that's fine.

[Jeong-sun] A super luxurious
five-star resort in Phuket.

At Hotel Shilla,
which always guarantees a comfy stay.

We just went on a group tour to Phuket.

All we did was eat there.
We didn't even stay overnight.

And what's this about Hotel Shilla?

Ugh, this is exactly
what everyone else does online.

That's enough.

Don't post anything
on my phone ever again.

[A-ri exhales]

[alert chimes]

[chiming continues]

[whoosh]

[woman] Hello there!

We're in the process of recruiting testers
for our latest product.

"Organic shampoo sponsor."

"Café orders are comped"?

[man] We're Seojeong Media,
an internet advertising firm.

We'd like to collab with you
on a mass purchase event.

With me?

A mass purchase collab with me?

[man] Kindly read the terms,
and DM us with your response.

[exhales deeply]

CHARITY EVENT AMOUNTS

It seems participation's low this year

in both the corporate and private circles.

Hmm. It must be due
to the economic decline.

As it stands, we can't support
all of our organizations this year.

Compared to last year, we estimate 15%
will be unable to meet their needs.

Hmm, that won't do.

Please hold all my afternoon meetings.

[woman sighs]

I'm going to find some funds.

Are you planning on going there in person?
We'll reach out to them.

Candor.

In this world, the truly wealthy
seem to appreciate it far over money.

Maybe it's 'cause they've more money
than they can spend.

Be back soon.

[woman] Mmm.

[woman] For the charity's bazaar
your foundation's hosting?

That time of year already?

Yes, but this year's participation
is rather low,

so I was hoping you could help.

Are you meeting with everyone like this?

[chuckles] You'll help, won't you?
Just for me?

[chuckle] This is just who she is.

One phone call from her secretary
would've been enough,

but she came all the way here.

I mean, how could I not adore her?

It seems Mrs. Ji
still hasn't gotten over you yet.

Si-hyeon would've been the perfect partner
for my son Jun-kyoung.

But what's that worth now?

They insisted they were just friends.

I'm still upset with Taegang
for snatching you up.

Si-hyeon visited us just to grace
a bunch of boring old farts.

What do we say to that?

Mrs. Ji, what choice do we have
but to give her what she wants?

Si-hyeon, we'll get you those funds, yeah?

[chuckles]

Thank you, ma'am.
I promise it'll go to good use.

Ah, Si-hyeon.

Want Jun-kyoung's company as well?
The more sponsors, the better, right?

[Si-hyeon exhales]

[pensive music playing]

[A-ri] You're saying
all of these proposals are trash?

Reviews should receive two
to three hundred thousand won per gig.

Mass purchases aren't worth it
if you get less than ten percent.

As for Seojeong Media,

these guys are a third-rate agency
that only flirt with small influencers.

[chuckles]

Anyway, that said...

you received quite a few.

Maybe... someone was getting a bit excited?

[screen locks]

Yep. Two to three hundred thousand
isn't exactly nothing.

Sure, yeah.

So why'd you come to me, then?
Why didn't you respond yourself?

You mentioned that you were
the reason for Min-hye's success.

So if these aren't worth anything...

how much money
can I make as an influencer?

[chuckles]

You're thinking... too small.

Are you just in it to make money?

'Cause there's
a lot more out there than that.

So, how's this...

You free right now?

[A-ri] What?

Come with me.

I'm gonna expand your mind.

[A-ri] I'm sorry,
but I have to get back to...

[woman] Welcome back, sir.

[upbeat music playing]

- Ah, it's been too long.
- [Seung-hyeok] Yeah, far too long.

Kang Ma-ri's scheduled for two, right?

- Came early and already making it hard.
- [Seung-hyeok chuckles]

[man] Who's she?

[Seung-hyeok] An e-celeb.

Please take care of her hair
and makeup for me.

Hello, ma'am. You're so stunning.

Please take a seat here.

I'll be right back.

[Seung-hyeok] Let's do this one.
Upload this photo, okay?

Your hair and makeup turned out perfect.
You'll k*ll it today.

Cheer up first. Huh?

Be happy.

Kang Ma-ri.

One of our influencers at 10K.

Once you hit a K...

you can get all of this done for free.

You're telling me
everything I get done here is free?

[Seung-hyeok] A better word for it is...

sponsored.

[upbeat music playing]

[camera shutter clicking]

KANG MA-RI

[Seung-hyeok] Hair salons, restaurants,
makeup, skincare, etcetera, etcetera.

And not to mention childcare products,
if you ever need it.

In this world, the K's can get you
a sponsorship for all of that.

[machine beeps]

In exchange for a simple hashtag
they can attach.

- [whooshing]
- [jingling]

[A-ri] Ten K? Ten thousand followers
makes all of this possible?

Then you can have all
of these sponsorships?

They practically beg you
to use their products.

Do you get it now?

Why influencers are so desperate
to get a K on their follower count?

I pulled everything you asked for.

[Seung-hyeok] Hmm.

- Try them on. All of them.
- [upbeat music playing]

- [Seung-hyeok] If 10K gets you this much...
- ♪ Hey! ♪

...what do you think you'd get
with more followers?

Selling 5,000 units of yoga clothes
that cost nothing to produce

for 150,000 won each

and selling it off in 30 minutes
is a breeze.

People will flood her feed with questions
regarding the electric fireplace she uses.

Which she causally slid into a daily pic.

So then, she'll open up
a mass purchase for the product,

saying she got a limited number
specifically for her fans.

This is how they make their money.

- [whistles]
- [chimes]

Of course, this is still possible
without a hundred thousand followers.

♪ Sh... Sh... Sh... Shake ♪

Look at Luna Chic,
the brand Oh Min-hye just launched.

With the right kind of backing,

you could also be making
five billion won annually.

Min-hye's making that much money a year?

[Seung-hyeok] Then there's princesschae.

How much do you think Jin Chae-hee,
someone who reigns from nobility,

would receive from her 320,000 followers?

[whirring]

They get treated better
than your average celebrity.

And that's what it means to be an e-celeb.

[inhales] Looks good.

It's incredible
how you can mix and match.

You have quite the taste for fashion.

[camera shutter clicks]

- What are you doing?
- You know this brand, don't you?

You have to return it.

At your current level,

you don't get the clothes
for free just yet.

At least you can have a photo
to remember it by.

[Seung-hyeok breathes deeply]

So now...

let me ask a new question.

It's clear that there's money in this.

But how do you think
the world will treat you

when you finally make it
all the way to the top,

Seo A-ri?

[pensive music building]

[music halts]

[party music playing]

[all cheering]

Hey, table 2 and table 11
will find themselves in trouble.

Don't give them any more alcohol.

Don't worry about it.
I'll take care of our VIP guests.

Just get our boys out.

Hey, bro! I'm here, sir!

- Oh, it's you.
- [Myeong-h* chuckles]

Looking good.
Heard your business is doing well.

Well, all thanks to you.

You're the one who led these morons
our way, bro. [chuckles]

I promise I'll make sure
you get your cut soon.

No worries. Take your time.

So where are they? The VIP room?

Police station?

Someone's suing you
for sexual harassment by you?

It's started as a misunderstanding.
Now it's gotten very interesting.

It's what?

Don't you know better?

The police station's
always crawling with reporters.

What'll you do if it gets out?

It's really nothing.

It's rather
I'm turning it into something.

Hey, but, like, why would you...

In any case,

I'll call
the commissioner general for you.

Oh hey, Mr. Jin and Mr. Han!

Isn't it so funny
that I'd run into you like this?

[laughs] Hi.

What's this?

I heard they were close,
so I asked him to come here.

Can I take it everything's to your liking?

Come on, bro. It's obvious
they're far from enjoying their stay.

- It's missing a little this!
- [man chuckles]

[laughs]

Uh, right, about that, Mr. Han...

Hey, don't worry. Check this.

I've handpicked some girls
I personally know.

I'm telling you,
these girls are grade-A prime meat.

- Brought straight from farm to table.
- [both laugh]

Go on, enjoy. We'll talk soon.

You're going?
You haven't finished your drink, though.

Come on, you're taking off already?
Friday night is just about to begin now.

You know, TGIF.

I don't like being uncomfortable.

I won't stay if I'm not enjoying it.

[Myeong-h* laughs]

That's why I told him I'd spice things up.
So why did he... I mean, uh...

I suppose Mr. Han just isn't into
those kinds of things, you know?

Think a guy like that
wouldn't be interested?

Well, who knows what he's really up to
behind the scenes, huh? [chuckles]

Sit down.

[dramatic music playing]

[indistinct chatter]

[engine roars]

[dramatic music continues]

[music fades]

[pensive music playing]

[Chae-hee] I wasn't gonna share this
'cause I wanted it all to myself.

Only three left in Korea.
Let's not wear it all at once.

[Seung-hyeok] It's clear
that there's money in this.

But how do you think
the world will treat you

when you finally make it
all the way to the top?

[engine roaring]

[keypad clicking]

[A-ri] I'll accept your offer.

What should I do now?

[pensive music continues]

[music fades]

[indistinct chatter]

I'm here! What's so important that...

[Seung-hyeok] Min-hye, you made it.

[Min-hye] Mmm.

What are you doing here?

[pensive music playing]

Is this why you called?
You wanted me to meet...

Sit down.
Why don't we have a conversation?

[Min-hye groans]

Come on, Min-hye.

[Seung-hyeok exhales]

Min-hye!

[Min-hye] Are you insane?

If I had known it was A-ri,
I wouldn't have come.

[scoffs] This is how you do your job?

Hasn't Biniimom done enough
to my public image?

I asked you to fix this for me,
but Seo A-ri?

I can fix this, hmm?

I'm suggesting we clean up your image
with someone to be your new bestie.

Besties?

Why would I with that b*tch?

[Seung-hyeok sighs]

Oh Min-hye's known for what?

Women go absolutely crazy for her
since she's the loyal gal pal.

She's willing to do
anything for her sisters.

After the incident with Biniimom,

we need to find
a new bestie to replace her.

Think about it.

Your high school best friend
shows up at the perfect time.

Deep down, you know this will work.

[sighs] I still don't like it.
The two of us aren't on the same level.

[Seung-hyeok sighs]

This is Seo A-ri's feed.

I know you know.

Being discovered on your Insta
doesn't account for her follower gain.

Seo A-ri's feed is clear proof
that she has potential.

Tomorrow is the launch
of your pop-up shop,

- [gasps]
- ...but your followers can't focus

with all these hate accounts freaking out
about you abandoning Biniimom.

I mean, how do you plan...
to distract them from this mess?

[Min-hye gasps]

[A-ri] I'm not psyched about this either,

especially since it's you.

But I thought...

if we may both gain something,

- I figure we should give it a try.
- [Min-hye sighs]

I think we can skip the apologies.

It's just business, yeah?

This one's top of the line.
No one will know it's a knock-off.

Oh, let me see. Give it to me.

I'm heading off.

[Jeong-sun gasps]
You're going there like that?

- Out of the question, bring this!
- [Mrs. A-ri chuckles]

A-ri, no one will know at all.
So take it, okay?

- What?
- [A-ri grunting]

Oh, wait, hold on. Why not?

Just wear it, okay?
Honey, why are you... Stop that! Come on!

- Ugh!
- Sorry, but I don't do knock-offs.

People are gonna make fun of you. Hey!

Ugh! Just go away!

Min-hye!

I'm here now!

Ah! Yu-rang,
you didn't have to come all this way.

- Thank you.
- [Yu-rang chuckles]

Don't you see the crowd?
What took you so long?

Ugh, I'm sorry.

- My kid wouldn't stop crying.
- [Min-hye scoffs]

Min-hye, could I get a photo with you?

Yeah, I insist.

Oh, this is Yu-rang.
You know her, don't you?

Oh yeah. Nice to meet you.

- [Min-hye] The three of us, then?
- Please.

[Min-hye] Stand over here.

- Three, two, one.
- [camera shutter clicks]

[pop music playing faintly]

[faint jingling]

- How about this one?
- Mmm, yeah, it's great.

[Min-hye chuckles] Thank you for coming!

[gasps] Oh, A-ri, you're here!
Come over here!

[chuckles]

Hey, let's take a photo.

Here, hold this up.

This is my brand.

We're ready.

- [Angela] Seo A-ri?
- [camera shutter clicks]

- [scoffs] She came back?
- [Chae-hee scoffs]

- [Min-hye chuckles] Mmm!
- [camera shutter clicking]

[Min-hye giggles]

[Ji-na] Do you think maybe...

Min-hye wants her for our Gabin Society?

- [Angela scoffs]
- Over my dead body.

[Min-hye giggles]

- [camera shutter clicking]
- [Min-hye] Mmm!

- [camera shutter clicks]
- Did you get it? Good.

Let's go. [chuckles]

Can you believe it? A-ri came all this way
just to support my pop-up shop.

[chuckles]

Nice to see you again.

How has everyone been?

[both chuckle]

[Ji-na scoffs]

[toilet flushes]

The pop-up shop totally blew up.

I mean...

of course it did. It's mine.

[chuckles]

Uh, Min-hye,
why did you invite A-ri to come today?

Why do you care? 'Cause we're besties.

Ah. [chuckles awkwardly]

I wish you would've told me beforehand.
I wasn't expecting her.

Why?

[scoffs] So was I supposed
to run the invite list by you?

[exhales] Huh?

[upbeat music playing faintly]

[Si-hyeon] It seems you two made up.

That's a relief.

I couldn't stop thinking
about what happened that day.

Ah, I didn't get to properly apologize.

I'm really sorry.

Why would you need to?

Regardless of my reasoning,
I was still eavesdropping on you.

Uh, don't worry.
There's nothing to apologize for.

And really,
I should've thanked you much sooner.

About my bag. [chuckles]

Thank you for returning it to me.

I'm really glad that I got the chance
to see you again, A-ri.

Let's do it again, shall we?

[woman] Excuse me, Ms. Yoon.
There's a call for you.

[Si-hyeon] Oh.

Yes, how are you?

[chuckles] Thank you for giving me a call.

[girl 1 panting] You're Seo A-ri, right?

- Yeah.
- I saw you on Min-hye's livestream.

I started following you after that.

Oh, thanks so much.

- She's Min-hye's friend?
- Yeah!

Oh my God, that makes so much sense.
Your sense of style is amazing.

[girl 1] So what brand do you have on now?

It's just some cheap nameless brand.
I got it at the Jepyung Shopping Center.

- [girl 1] Oh!
- [girl 2] Wow!

They do say one's appearance
makes the look.

I thought they were designer clothes.

Yeah, me too. Where is Jepyung located?

[girl 1] I mean, cheap is still cool.
Please tell me where too.

This is how I want to dress.

So cute. Love it!

[Min-hye chuckles]

- Can you believe it? I really love this!
- [girl 2 chuckles]

My A-ri is so stylish, isn't she?

It's so hard hanging out
with someone so much prettier than me,

but I just can't resist. [chuckles]
She's my friend, and I love her!

- [girl 1] Oh!
- [girl 2] Wow.

Min-hye, you're really loyal.

- I mean, most people would get so jealous.
- [chuckles]

- [girl 1] Can we take a photo?
- [Min-hye] Of course.

- [girl 1] Thank you.
- [girl 2] Thank you so much.

- Cheese!
- [camera shutter clicks]

- Yeah, another one. And another.
- [camera shutter clicking]

- [man] In three, two, one.
- [Min-hye chuckles]

- Three, two, one.
- [camera shutter clicking]

One more.

- Three, two...
- [chuckles]

- [man] All right, that's it.
- [Min-hye sighs]

I'm gonna go ahead.
I have another appointment.

[Ji-na] Yeah, me too.

[Si-hyeon] Before everyone goes,
there's a charity bazaar this weekend.

I'm sure you remember?

Of course we do. It's you hosting.

I spent four days trying to pick out
some of the best items for you.

I'm so honored
that you gave us some time today.

It's no problem.

Then...

Let's go.

- See you! Bye!
- [Chae-hee] We're off.

[Yu-rang] I'll go on ahead.

- [Min-hye] Okay, thanks.
- [Yu-rang] All right.

[Min-hye] You see this? [sighs]

[indistinct chatter]

[Min-hye scoffs]
Not there. Start from the inside.

[Min-hye scoffs]

You did a great job today.

One might've mistaken today
was all about you.

What's the deal?
You were the last to arrive.

Go down to the parking garage.
You can help them sort out my inventory.

- What?
- [Min-hye] Hey!

Don't hold it like that,
or you'll break it.

Ugh!

What? Go to the parking garage.

No, don't do it like that.

[boxes thudding]

[Yu-rang sighs]
Be careful with that, please.

- [Yu-rang exhales]
- So what's all this?

They're presents for Min-hye.

From her followers.

They bring her gifts
while they're here to buy her products?

Of course, if it means
they can see Min-hye in the flesh.

And I mean,
the whole Gabin Society was here today.

It's an honor to be invited.

An honor? Really?

[sighs]

Don't just stand there and watch.
Please help. This is exhausting as hell.

Sure.

[A-ri exhales]

[Yu-rang] Ugh!

- [whooshes]
- [chimes]

[Min-hye] My beautiful best friend,
childhood friends are your true friends!

Go down to the parking garage.
You can help them sort out my inventory.

[sighs]

[chimes]

- Oh, this is crazy!
- Oh God!

[both grunt, exhale]

- One, two, three!
- One, two, three!

[both grunt]

[both breathing heavily]

You know what
this charity bazaar is, right?

Lots of rich people, influencers,
celebrities all selling their things.

A crap ton of luxury items,
everything's dirt cheap,

and you can't get in without an invite.

You're right. Who would've thought
something like this was real?

Just thinking about you there
has me all excited.

You're gonna be a real somebody!

Do you really think my stuff
is gonna sell there?

It's a bazaar.
They're bound to have all sorts of stuff.

That's why you're invited.

We have too much stuff for the bus.
Let's get a cab.

- Yeah, sure.
- [A-ri grunting]

- I'm glad you came.
- [Mrs. Ji] Mm-hmm.

Is it fine if we pretend to join then go?

Of course, I know you're busy.

And Jun-kyoung?

Their PR team contributed
quite a large sum.

Well, he should've showed up as well.

After all, it's good publicity.

I'm sure he's busy.
He did more than enough.

But this is also work.

- [phone chimes]
- [line ringing]

Hello, it's me. Where are you now?

Are you at work?

Yeah, I'm not.

That's why I can't go there right now.

See you at home.

Hmm. That was my mother.

She didn't believe me
when I said I was with the police.

Okay, then. Where'd we leave off?

Uh, yeah. [inhales]

Excuse me,
why did you come here in person?

I mean, I'm sure you have,
well, plenty of lawyers at your disposal.

It's because of that woman. Ms. Seo A-ri.

The cross-examination's today, right?
So that's why I'm here. For my accuser.

Oh, that's too bad.

I'm afraid you've come
all this way for nothing.

This case is for sexual harassment.

For such incidents, we forgo them
if the victim doesn't want one.

And Ms. Seo decided
to submit a statement instead.

So she's not coming?

[whimsical music playing]

[A-ri and Jeong-sun chuckling]

[A-ri] Thank you. [chuckles]

- Oh!
- [camera shutter clicks]

[Jeong-sun] Oh, hey, look here. [chuckles]

- A-ri's made it, girls!
- [camera shutter clicks]

Come on, let's go.

[both chuckling]

Wow, this is so luxurious. It's crazy.

This hallway is super long too.

What's up? Did it already start?

You said it was at five.

Min-hye told me to get here by five.

We should hurry up.

[Si-hyeon] Thank you for coming.

It was my pleasure. Good luck.

A-ri, hi.

[gasps] Good to see you.

Did I get the time wrong?
Isn't it supposed to start at five?

- Uh...
- [A-ir] That's what Min-hye told me.

I need to get my stuff
and be here by five to set up.

Is that why you also decided
to bring all of your things with?

Did we get here too late?

- Is it okay if we go in?
- Hey!

It was so hard
to drag this all the way! Ugh!

Huh?

[exhales] Come on in.

I'm sure there's enough room
for your things.

- [A-ri and Jeong-sun] Thank you, ma'am!
- [both laugh]

- [gasps] Awesome! This is insane!
- [A-ri gasps]

Oh my God, that's sick.

Whoa! [exhales]

This is crazy. I'm losing my mind.
It's so cool! [gasps]

[Jeong-sun exhales]

[gasps] Whoa!

God, this is so cool.

[gasps] Whoa!

It's a total designer fest in here.
Seriously!

- [Si-hyeon] Please take your time.
- [woman] Thanks for having me. Thank you.

[Jeong-sun] Whoa, there must be
practically every brand here.

[Jeong-sun gasps]

Unbelievable.

Uh, hold on Ms. Lee.
I'm gonna make some room for her here.

[Ms. Lee] Of course, ma'am.

- You can set up right here.
- [Jeong-sun] Thank you.

[items clattering]

Jeong-sun, hey, just hold on.

Si-hyeon,

I think that maybe we should just go.

Oh no. Really, it's all right, A-ri.

[Min-hye] Seo A-ri?

[scoffs] What are you doing?

[scoffs]

Ugh, did you really think
I was asking you to take part

when I said be here by five?

Hey, I was telling you what time
you had to be here for cleanup.

You really don't belong here.

Those her cheap off-brands?

I mean, it sure is different.

- How much do these cost?
- [Min-hye chuckles]

[chuckles]

[Yu-rang] A-ri, look.

There's only designer brands sold here.
Your stuff will be out of place.

That's wrong.
Any personal items are allowed here.

- That's the point of our event.
- [Chae-hee] Si-hyeon!

Ignoring her level, sure,
but can't we keep things classy?

This is just embarrassing.

How would this make us look?

Chae-hee, that's enough.

Whoa, aren't you... aren't you all
taking this a bit too far right now?

There's more
than just cheap off-brands here.

- There's also the bag A-ri used to wear...
- Stop it.

Stop it. Let's go.

- Why? We haven't even looked...
- Didn't you hear me?

I said, "Let's go."

[indistinct chatter]

I'm sorry that I caused you
so much trouble.

Oh, A-ri, where are you going? [panting]

[A-ri breathing heavily]

- [A-ri screams]
- [all gasp]

[Jeong-sun gasps] A-ri!

- [Min-hye exhales]
- Oh, oh, what do we do?

[Min-hye] Oh my God.

What did she think was going to happen?
This is so embarrassing.

[A-ri breathing heavily]

[tender music playing]

Been wondering where you were
after you ignored me.

You chose to do this instead?

Si-hyeon, that's Jun-kyoung, isn't it?

[gasps]

Looks like you're in need of some help.

Or are you good?

[Min-hye grunts]

Han Jun-kyoung?

The Yugang heir and Hue Cosmetics CEO?

Yeah, I'm pretty sure.

But how does someone like that know her?

There's no way.
Even I've never met him before.

Ugh!

That was incredible!
So unbelievably freaking incredible!

Since when do you know Han Jun-kyoung?
Huh?

Come on, say something.
You are absolutely k*lling me.

Holy sh*t, why didn't you tell...

[sniffles]

Mr. Han asked me to give you a ride home.

- So where can I take you?
- [inhales] Oh God.

[Jeong-sun exhales]

So tell me. Where did you meet her?

Come on. Like, how exactly
does Seo A-ri meet someone like you?

Wine, maybe?

[Chae-hee scoffs]
Don't change the subject.

Come on, start talking!

How long have you known her?

Oh, Si-hyeon. Come join.

[exhales]

It's been a while.

[Jun-kyoung] It has.

You've gotten prettier.

Si-hyeon, did you know about this?

That Jun-kyung and A-ri
somehow know each other?

He's here because he thought
he was gonna get to see her.

[pensive music playing]

How did...

you find me here?

Your Instagram.

To send you that DM,
I had to make an account for myself.

Through your feed,

I could tell where you were going.

[A-ri] CEO of The Hue Cosmetics.

What would someone like that want from...

[breathes deeply]

[phone unlocks]

[gasps]

[dramatic sting]

[whoosh]

# HAEUM_FOUNDATION #17THHAEUMDREAM #BAZAAR

SHE LOOKS SO CHILL

SHE'S OUT OF MY WORLD

MY WANNABE, A-RI

HER BEAUTY COULD BUILD A NATION

- [A-ri shrieks]
- [crowd gasps]

[A-ri gasps]

[Chae-hee] Ignoring her level, sure,
but can't we keep things classy?

This is just embarrassing.

[Angela] Look at Ms. Fake Ivy
selling sh*t door-to-door.

[Yu-rang] Of course,
if it means they can see Min-hye.

And I mean,
the whole Gabin Society was here today.

It's an honor to be invited.

[Min-hye] Who does Seo A-ri think she is?
Who does she think made her?

Ugh! So what?

So she's gonna reveal all our secrets?

Seo A-ri's viewer count keeps going up.

People are blowing up my DMs
asking if it's true.

f*ck that crazy b*tch.

Bleeding me dry isn't enough.
She's f*cking me from the grave.

Min-hye, are you sure she's really dead?

Maybe A-ri's still alive.

You hear what you just said?

- Then how do you explain this?
- [footsteps approaching]

- [woman] Excuse me, ma'am!
- [Min-hye sighs]

- [man] Ms. Oh Min-hye?
- [exhales]

I'm Inspector Jang from Dongbu.

[pensive music playing]

Si-hyeon! Si-hyeon! [panting]

You're going to the police?
Are you insane?

A-ri has somehow returned.
We need to at least know what's going on.

Ah, no!

That b*tch is dead. She has to be!

No way. This has to be staged.

She's right.

You of all people know
how good she is at making things up.

Or did you forget?

We weren't the only ones she f*cked.
I know we weren't.

Even though you had her back,
she still screwed you too.

[Jang] You know Seo A-ri, don't you?

At some point?

I mean, it's not clear
whether she's alive or not, but...

I understand you were close.

[exhales shakily] Min-hye...

So if you have any information...
If you know anything about her or what's...

[scoffs]

Seo A-ri?

You think she and I were close?

[chuckles] Fine, ask me whatever you want.
I have nothing to hide.

Seo A-ri?

Yeah, I knew her very well.

She was an absolute b*tch.

She was vain, seething with jealousy,
and willing to do anything.

Min-hye, what's gotten into you?
That's enough. Stop!

Let go! You know I'm right!

She made everyone around her miserable!

How is Seo A-ri streaming if she's dead?

I have no idea!

All I know is everything out of her mouth
is a lie and manipulation.

She was as as*h*le who stepped on anyone
who got in her way, no matter the cost!

Ugh!

You're right.

Maybe I did that. But you're one to talk.

I mean, there was that one instance.
The infamous flame wars.

Instigated by Seo A-ri.

The post I put up at that night...
You know the one.

...rocked social media to its core.

[keypad clicking]

- What's this?
- What?

My phone! Where's my g*dd*mn phone?!

[breathing shakily]

[scoffs]

Seo A-ri, this f*cking b*tch.
What's she trying to pull here?

[A-ri] Everyone listen.

- I hate getting likes.
- [keypad clicking]

"You're so pretty. You're my role model.
You're like a princess."

Stop that.

I don't need you...

to say those things to me.

Unlike another group,

you all know
I don't need an army to protect me.

Now, I'd like to ask you all a question.

Why do you volunteer
to be someone's lackey?

Just what makes us so special?

What is it we have that you don't?

[keypad clicking]

I'm sorry, but I'm not interested.

So, please, save it for the princesses
who are desperate for your attention.

[chimes]

[beeping, whooshes]

[phone chimes]

[whooshes]

JUST SAY THANK YOU.
WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?

[dramatic music playing]

SHE'S CLEARLY ATTACKING GABIN SOCIETY
CRAZY FOR ATTENTION

WHAT THE HELL'S SHE SAYING?
