- Do Ra.
- Do Ra, can I get your autograph?
- Please take a photo with us.
- Do Ra
- Do Ra?
- Where did she go?
What
What do you think you're doing?
What did you do to my lips?
As if you need to ask.
There's no need to embarrass me.
(Episode 11)
How could you come at me like that?
I could sue you, you know.
Fine. Sue me if you want.
However, the charges won't stick.
I didn't do this alone.
We were in it together.
What do you mean we did it together?
You're quite the trouble, aren't you?
I was standing in my place
but you came at me.
What? You were just standing there?
You leaned in
one millimetre at a time as
if you were going to kiss me.
- Unbelievable.
- What
You're like a turtle.
You were moving too slowly,
so I closed the gap.
You should be grateful.
What did you just say?
You're now making things up
saying things I didn't do.
What do you mean I slowly leaned in?
When did I do that?
Pil Seung, be honest with yourself.
Your heart skipped a beat
at the sight of me just now.
You have no idea how loudly
your heart beat just now.
And what about the burning gaze
that almost burned a hole through me?
What was that about?
Look who's calling the kettle black?
Are you pinning the kiss on me
when you were the one
who stole one from me?
What? I looked at you with
a burning look in my eyes?
Why would I look at you that way?
Whatever.
I'm only letting this slide
because I can't have trouble
while we're filming the series.
But plant another kiss on me
and I won't care about what happens
to "Straightforward Romance."
Until when will you deny your feelings?
You came to see me today.
Because I was with Mr. Gong.
Me being with another man made you jealous.
It's because you like me.
I clearly said that wasn't the case.
My work brought me to this neighbourhood,
so stop being delusional.
You were here regarding your work?
As if. Why would I ever believe that?
I got to know for sure today.
You have feelings for me, Pil Seung.
What the
What kind of a dream was that?
Why would I dream of something like that?
Was Do Ra right?
Did I lean in for the kiss as well?
No way. I wouldn't have done that.
Get your act together, Pil Seung.
What are you thinking about?
This isn't right.
Of course.
I can't let her faze me like this.
Not anymore.
Jin Dan,
do you remember what you said
while drunk last night?
Yes, I recall everything.
And since I do, I'll speak my mind.
Sure. Go ahead.
Over the years,
I've been upset with you.
I never asked for what you own.
I asked
for Angel Investment Corp.
Which is what Father gave me.
Why haven't you transferred
its ownership to me?
Until when must I walk on
eggshells around you
wondering when you'll give it to me?
Why must I do that
when the company should be mine?
I never said you couldn't have it.
I should know I can trust you
before I can hand it over.
When will you trust me, then?
When?
As if you don't know.
What happened to the
construction company
I handed over?
I said it wasn't going to work,
but you tried to start a condo business
in Vietnam and Myanmar
which turned out to be a flop.
That project of yours almost
cost us the entire group.
So how could I trust you enough
to hand over the rights
to Angel Investment Corp.?
Be a little more patient.
I can't. I can't wait.
It's time you handed it over.
What?
How dare you request that?
Hand it over to Jin Dan.
Angel Investment Corp. is Jin Dan's.
Whether he burns it to the ground
or sells it is his business,
so who are you to keep it from him?
- Auntie
- Why?
Did your wife tell you to keep it from him?
Auntie, come on.
Why would you bring her up
when we're discussing Jin Dan's matter?
What has gotten into you?
Just look at how this
family is functioning.
I'm frustrated and
annoyed to say the least.
First Ma Ri and then Jin Dan.
Keeping the company from him
won't solve any of these issues.
Hand it over to him and
wrap things up on your end.
You're handing Angel Investment Corp.
Over to him?
Are you sure about this?
Now that I think about
it, my aunt has a point.
Angel Investment Corp.
I can't run that subsidiary forever.
If Angel Investment Corp. flops,
it will harm the other subsidiaries.
We own part of it too.
I have no choice now.
It's out of my control.
All I can do is trust Jin
Dan and watch how he does.
Fighting over something like this
doesn't look good either.
It's best to handle the
issue now when it came up.
Okay. I understand.
I'm off to work.
Are you sure? Jin Taek
said he'd give it to you?
Yes. He'll see to it right away.
Now I'm the actual CEO
of Angel Investment Corp.
My gosh, Jin Dan.
I don't believe this. It
feels like I'm dreaming.
Will he really give you the company?
What if he changes his mind?
Come on, Mom.
Jin Taek's not the type
to go against his word.
That's true.
The day has come at last.
Jin Dan. Let's move out.
Let's live on our own and be free.
What are you talking about?
Why would we move out?
Do you think I lived here just
to get Angel Investment Corp.?
APP Group has no heir.
The successor position
is still up for grabs.
Someone might hear you. Lower
your voice when you say that.
So, Mom. Don't dream of moving out.
We're just getting started.
Okay, then. We'll stay here.
I had no idea you had such grand plans.
Jin Dan. I trust and rely
on you for everything now.
You always trusted me.
I'm off to work now.
My handsome son.
CEO Gong. Have a nice day.
Mom.
Look after Auntie well.
I will. I get what you mean.
Thank you so much, Auntie.
You helped Jin Dan get
Angel Investment Corp.
I won't forget it.
I'll think of you as my mother.
If you say blue is red,
I'll pretend blue is red,
and serve you indefinitely.
Wait. Why didn't I think of that?
She went to high school with Ma Ri's mom.
Do you mean what you just said?
You'll think of me as your mother?
And believe blue is red if I say so?
Yes, Auntie. I meant that.
You changed my life and Jin Dan's.
What wouldn't I do for you?
I'll live my life for you now.
Then sit down.
I have something secret to discuss.
A secret?
I'm listening, Auntie.
A secret between a mother and daughter
should never be shared.
You know that, right?
I do.
Anything you tell me as
a mother to a daughter
will stay within these walls
and I'll take it to my grave.
Then
look into Soo Yeon's past for me.
What was she up to before
she married Jin Taek?
What?
Ma Ri's mom?
You want to know Soo Yeon's past?
I'm home.
Welcome back.
What's in that box?
I got Hyun Chul some tonic.
I told him to rest, but he won't.
I'm worried the labour
will take its toll as
he's not exactly young.
I'm pleased you got him a tonic,
but don't you worry about me at all?
This work of sticking
three hundred eyeballs
a day into plush toys.
It's not easy work.
My eyes and shoulders hurt,
and I practically ache all over.
Honestly,
I had no idea that sticking eyes on toys
was such a tough job.
Oh, gosh.
I felt sorry for my son Hyun Chul,
so I wanted to do whatever I could to help.
Sticking 300 eyes a day on toys
I'll get you some tonic next time.
The darn thing.
She always says she'll get mine next time.
Who is it?
Gosh, Ae Kyo.
What brings you by my place?
Hi.
Ae Kyo.
Why would you suddenly visit me?
I was passing by and I thought of you.
Am I not allowed to visit?
Of course you are.
I just got curious
because you dropped by
without even a call.
You used to be
my best friend when we were in school.
Then you ended up caring
more about Soo Yeon.
I felt hurt and left out, you know.
Gosh. Did you really?
We drifted apart because we'd lost touch
for a while,
but I feel dreadful to hear you say that.
I didn't mean anything.
I know you didn't.
Oh, right.
I got you some cosmetics
while getting some for myself.
Try the line. It's really nice.
Gosh, Ae Kyo.
This is so expensive. You
didn't have to get me anything.
Can't you just take a
gift from a rich friend?
At our age, we need to
care about our skin more,
or we age just like that.
Okay, thanks. I'll use it with care.
My skin's about to get
spoiled, thanks to you.
I must be getting old.
I think of my friends a lot.
And our old memories.
Do you remember when you, me, and Ji Hye
went to Wolmido together?
Yes, of course I remember.
We got to see the ocean and
hang out at an amusement park.
We got drunk on rice
wine and pajeon that day,
and barely managed to get home.
Yes, we did.
The three of us were closest.
Soo Yeon was haughty and
had an assemblyman dad,
so we didn't dare hang out with her.
So,
when did you and Soo Yeon get close?
After I gave birth to Pil Seung,
I happened to see her in the neighbourhood.
A member of her family
seemed to live nearby.
She said she couldn't get pregnant,
and wouldn't stop cooing about Pil Seung.
She came by often after that.
That's how we got close.
What do you mean?
Didn't you say you had no mom,
so Soo Yeon helped you
recover after giving birth?
Why would you say you met by
chance after you gave birth?
No, it's not that.
We're talking about years ago.
We met by chance
when I was pregnant with Pil Seung.
Soo Yeon visited often when I was pregnant.
She did a lot for me then.
And she helped me recover after childbirth.
Did she?
Who was Soo Yeon's
closest friend in school?
Was she close to Eun Ju back then?
I think that's it.
She was always with Eun Ju.
Oh, Kang Eun Ju?
She married a Busan guy and moved there.
That's right.
I think I remember the
two of them together.
Yes.
When Sun Young had her baby,
because her mom had died,
I took her to hospital,
and I looked after her after birth.
After I gave birth to Pil Seung,
I happened to see her in the neighbourhood.
No, it's not that.
We're talking about years ago.
We met by chance
when I was pregnant with Pil Seung.
Why don't her stories add up?
How odd.
No, I have no time for this.
Kang Eun Ju.
Here it is.
Hey, Eun Ju.
It's Ae Kyo.
Yes, it's been a while.
How are you?
I'm doing great. Why did you call?
You were friends with Soo
Yeon back in high school.
Did you meet her after graduation?
Soo Yeon went to study abroad
after graduating from high school.
After that, we called each
other once every now and then.
By the way, why do you ask?
What? Well, that's
A reporter wanted to cover
Soo Yeon's younger years,
so I wanted to help out.
Then, perhaps,
was there anyone who Soo Yeon was
close to when she studied abroad?
Who?
Oh, Kim Jae Kyung? She
studied abroad too, right?
Okay, thanks.
By the way, Eun Ju. Be sure to
call me when you come to Seoul.
Bye.
But what about Soo Yeon's
past do I have to look into?
I'm looking into
Soo Yeon's close friends
from her past right now.
But what is it that you want to know?
I felt at a loss for
what I should look into.
What on earth is this about?
Well
Then
Focus on finding out about
how Soo Yeon lived
while she was studying abroad.
While she was studying abroad?
I actually got the phone number of
a friend she studied abroad with.
But Auntie, please just
tell me what this is about.
Even if I meet her friend from
when she was studying abroad,
I have to know what to ask her
to get the right information.
Are you perhaps
curious about whether Soo
Yeon had a boyfriend there?
What But how did you know that?
Oh, my. So I was right.
Usually, when people wonder
about someone's past,
that's what it's about.
I have to find
the man Soo Yeon dated while
she was studying abroad.
My family's fate depends on this.
So, find out discreetly
without anyone knowing.
You get what I mean, right?
Oh, my. So,
you mean there really was a
man Soo Yeon dated back then?
Assistant Director Ko. Which
of these two should we go with?
Let's go with this one.
- We'll use these earphones.
- Okay.
Hello.
Park Do Ra?
Why did she dress up so much today?
Who is she trying to look good for?
Well
I know, right?
I'm sure there's something going
on between her and Cha Bong Soo.
Pil Seung, you know this, don't you?
I have a very good hunch.
What?
Gosh, Park Do Ra really
is an actress, indeed.
She sure is pretty.
Her looks don't get old even
when I see her every day.
Don't you think so?
Oh, right. Sure.
Since she's so pretty, it's
so easy to forgive her
although she has a nasty
temper and makes you so mad.
- Director Hong.
- What?
Can you please check this?
Oh, okay.
Pil Seung.
Ms. Park.
I told you not to call me
by my name while on set.
Fine.
Then, my dear Pil Seung.
My gosh.
Forget it. It's not worth the trouble.
Pil Seung, what are you
doing today after the sh**t?
- Why?
- Let's go eat shabu-shabu after.
Why would I eat shabu-shabu
with you after work?
What is there between us?
What do you mean, what is there between us?
We even kissed.
Then, doesn't that mean
we're dating as of yesterday?
Hey, Park Do Ra. Don't you
ever bring that up again.
I'm holding myself back
from wanting to sue you.
Pil Seung. I'll wait in the parking
lot of the tteokbokki place later.
I'm going to wait until you come.
I made myself clear. I'm not coming.
So, don't do anything useless.
I also made myself clear.
I'm going to wait until you come.
I'm going to wait all night long.
(Gong Jin Taek, Gong Jin Dan)
(Gong Jin Taek, Gong Jin Dan)
There you go.
It's all done now, Chairman Gong.
Now, Angel Investment Corp. is yours.
Be sure to protect it well.
Yes, I understand.
Thank you, Jin Taek.
Mom, here comes that guy.
Over here.
Mom, I didn't realize back then
because things were so hectic,
but seeing him again today,
he looks kind of cute.
Ma Ri.
Okay, I'll behave myself.
I won't act like that in front of him.
Hello.
Yes, welcome. Have a seat.
All right.
I asked to see you today because
I was so grateful for last time.
I hope I didn't take up too much
time from your busy schedule.
Did you perhaps come during your workday?
No, I'm a student.
I'm studying in New York,
but I came back to Korea for
a while during spring break.
Is that so? You're still a student.
Oh, I was in the US too.
Then, how old are you, Do Jun?
I'm 24 years old.
Oh, then you're younger than me.
Do Jun, just call me by my name.
I'm 26 years old.
Ma Ri, you shouldn't do that.
That's impolite.
No, it's fine.
You can speak casually.
Mom, Do Jun said to speak casually.
Do Jun, then,
give me your phone number.
I'll call you in New York.
Let's meet up in New York too.
I'll buy you lots of good food.
Okay.
Mom, I'm so happy that I
have a cute younger friend.
Here.
Mom, I'm going to the restroom.
Excuse me for a while.
All right.
Do Jun.
When Ma Ri was young,
she was in an accident.
Her body may be an adult,
but her mental age is about 12 years old.
Oh, I see.
Please understand even if
she behaves impolitely.
That's fine.
I thought your daughter
was honest and innocent.
But now, I understand everything.
Thank you for thinking
of her in a positive way.
Oh, this is
I was just so grateful for last time.
No, please don't do this. I'm really fine.
Don't feel too burdened.
Just spend it on having a
good meal with your friends.
Last time,
if it hadn't been for you,
Ma Ri would have really
I don't even want to think about that.
We're so deeply indebted to you.
Thank you.
Don't mention it.
Anyone would've helped
out in that situation.
Thank you so much.
Go back when I'm letting you go.
I just want to go straight to you.
I also made myself clear.
I'm going to wait until you come.
I'm going to wait all night long.
Why should I go?
What does it matter to me
whether or not she waits?
I mean, but still,
I could eat with her.
I have to eat dinner anyway.
And I am a bit hungry.
No.
I should never eat with that girl, Do Ra.
Why is it so cluttered?
Hello?
Pil Seung, where are you?
Are you on your way?
I told you earlier that
I wouldn't be there.
I won't have shabu-shabu with you.
So don't wait for me and head home.
- I'm not going.
- Pil Seung, please.
Help me.
Do Ra, what's going on?
Park Do Ra!
The person you have reached is unavailable.
Please leave a message after the tone.
Do Ra!
Park Do Ra!
Park Do Ra!
Pil Seung.
Do Ra, are you okay?
What happened? What was it?
I bet you were worried
that I was in trouble.
But that was me being delighted
over the delicious snack.
What? You were delighted
over a delicious snack?
Are you kidding me?
Why? Did my acting seem too real?
Do Ra, are you kidding me?
Do you think I'm a joke?
Pil Seung, I'm not scared when
you raise your voice anymore.
Actually, you look adorable
when you get angry.
What?
Why didn't you come to see me
when I told you to come?
You should've come without hesitating.
Pil Seung, I'm hungry, so let's hurry.
We have a lot to do
besides eating shabu-shabu.
I said I wouldn't have
shabu-shabu with you.
But
Can't you let me have my way today?
Come on.
Just think you're doing a favour
for the little girl who
used to live at your house.
Come on.
Fine, but
Don't talk nonsense about
this being our first date or anything.
Fine.
Off we go. Let's go!
Hey, stop that.
What if someone recognizes you?
Pil Seung, look at how I'm dressed.
I'm wearing a hoodie,
a mask, and a tracksuit.
No one will think I'm Park Do Ra.
No one will recognize me. Don't you worry.
Where are we going?
Pil Seung, don't ask any questions
and just follow my lead.
What the
Pil Seung, that isn't necessary.
See? No one knows it's me.
Besides, people these days
aren't interested in others.
They're all busy on their phones.
Keep it down. Stop talking.
You'll get caught at that rate.
Quiet.
Aren't you too old for this?
Come on. This brings
back childhood memories.
Wait.
What the
- I'm Park Do Ra!
- Hey!
Pil Seung, seeing them
brings back old memories.
As in what?
Come on.
I wanted to look nice for you as a girl,
so I put on makeup
and placed socks in my bra, and
we met at an amusement park.
Don't you remember that?
How could I forget that?
You were impossible back then.
How are you still that
same 12-year-old girl?
Look how you dragged me all the way here.
But we had fun today, didn't we?
Pil Seung, coming here with you
took me back in time.
I'm having so much fun.
Isn't that Park Do Ra?
Aren't you Park Do Ra?
No, I'm not.
- I'm Park Do Ra!
- Hey!
Are you kidding me?
Pil Seung, thanks to you,
I had so much fun today.
It's always a joy to be with you.
I want it to be tomorrow so
that we can hang out again.
I had fun today as well. It
brought back old memories.
See you tomorrow.
(See you tomorrow.)
(Ms. Park Do Ra)
Pil Seung.
What do you think you're doing?
You've lost your mind.
Why did you go to an
amusement park with her?
I let her take control today.
But this is the last time
I'll let myself waver.
Thank you.
Mr. Gong, what brings you by?
Ms. Park, we should talk.
I have nothing to say to you.
I was rash the last time we met
which led me to make a mistake.
I wanted to apologize and say
something important to you.
Why don't we get in my car?
Let's go to a coffee shop nearby.
No.
You can talk here.
Well
Sure. I'll talk out here.
Ms. Park, I
I finally became the true
CEO of Angel Investment Corp.
I'm now the true owner of the company.
I was given all the shares I was promised.
I see. Congratulations.
Ms. Park,
I don't lack in any way.
I am finally worthy of someone like you,
so please give me one last chance.
I almost forgot.
Mr. Gong, please don't do this.
Ms. Park.
I'll wait patiently for you,
so please give me another chance.
You're interested in me
but you're avoiding me because of my mom
according to your mother.
If you're worried about my mom,
I assure you that she won't be a problem.
Mr. Gong!
I clearly spoke my mind
the last time we met,
so why are you being like this?
This isn't because of your mother.
I'm not interested in dating you at all.
So stop coming at me like this.
What's your reason?
Why are you rejecting me?
In what way do I lack?
What did I do wrong to you?
Let go of me!
This is you treating me poorly.
Why can't you accept that I
don't want to be with you?
Park Do Ra.
You're seeing someone.
I'm sure of it.
It's me.
Look into Park Do Ra
and see if she began to date
someone new.
Goodness. Are you just getting in?
Filming ended early today,
so where were you
until this late hour after
sending Jae Dong home?
Mom,
what have you been telling Mr. Gong?
What could've driven him to
wait outside the building?
Goodness. Did he come to see you again?
That's right. At the
restaurant the other day,
he took me in his arms
even when I expressed my
lack of interest in him.
Today, he held me by the arm
and told me not to worry about his mom.
Why is he being this way
when I'm not interested?
What did you say to him
that could encourage this?
I didn't say a thing.
I hate that man,
so don't even talk to him again.
Got it?
- Sure.
- Darn it.
That brat.
Couldn't she have accepted his advances?
This is bad.
What if he tells me to pay
back the 500,000 dollars?
What do I do?
(CEO Gong Jin Dan)
Oh, no.
What do I do? My gosh.
What if he tells me to pay back the money?
What do I do?
Pil Seung.
Why did you ask me to see you
when we'll see each other on set?
What is it?
Couldn't you wait until then?
Do Ra.
I asked you here because
I had something to say.
What could it be about that
has you sounding serious?
Do Ra, it's true.
You're right about my feelings for you.
Right?
You have feelings for me too, right?
Thanks, Pil Seung.
Thanks for finally being honest with me.
Can I like you as much as I want, then?
Hold on.
Are we a couple from here on out?
Can I see you whenever I want
and spend birthdays and
Christmases together?
Just thinking about it makes me smile.
I'm sorry, Do Ra.
But
that's not something I want.
I can't do it.
What do you mean by that?
Didn't you just say you
had feelings for me?
You're an actress with a successful career,
and I'm an assistant director
who is beginning to build his career.
We're not a good match.
But
I don't care about that at all.
I'm fine with it.
How can it be a problem
when we like each other?
I'm not okay with it.
What if people find out about us?
What do you think will happen?
Reporters will be stationed
outside my house
and everyone will dig into my life
as well as the lives of my family members.
I don't want to go through that.
What?
I told you before
that I wanted a successful
career as a director.
I wish to film a series that moves people.
So the last thing I want
is to be gossiped about
for something that isn't
my success as a director.
Do Ra.
Before our feelings grow
and it becomes harder on us,
let's put a stop to it.
I'm not someone who can handle your fame.
So find someone who is
a better fit for you.
I'll do the same.
We'll leave it at that.
Pil Seung, can't we
date in secret?
We'll try not to get caught.
I'll be more careful.
I'll make sure no one recognizes me.
Do Ra.
We can't be together.
I can't explain everything to you,
but we can't be together for many reasons.
So please.
Don't stir up
my feelings for you.
We
have different paths to take.
Find someone who is a better fit for you.
I'll do the same.
Why must we break up when we're in love?
I will love you even if
you don't love me back.
I'll head straight for you.
Cut. That's no good.
Ms. Park.
What
You're not supposed to cry in this scene.
She says she'll be heading
straight for him
in a cheerful and feisty manner.
Do Ra, come on.
Calm your emotions.
What is it?
She must be projecting the
feelings she has for me.
This is how it is with actors.
Director Hong, why don't we take a break?
Sure. Let's do that.
The devotion the actors have
had them digging deep into their emotions.
Let's take a short break.
Jae Dong, over here.
There must be something going
on with her and Cha Bong Soo.
Tell me about it.
Something must be going on.
A courier dropped off the
information you requested.
(CEO Gong Jin Dan)
This is the punk she's
been casually seeing?
Did she reject me for a punk like this?
Unbelievable.
(My very own anti-ageing regimen)
(Lightly enjoy!)
Darn it!
Why do I see Do Ra everywhere I go?
Park Do Ra.
Why are you doing this to me?
Why do you keep showing up?
(Winners of the KMS Rookie
Screenwriting Contest)
(We thank everyone who sent in their work.)
Goodness me.
Myung Dong, hey.
Aren't they announcing the winners
of the screenwriting contest today?
Myung Dong, did you
Myung Dong?
Did you not make the cut again?
See? What did I tell you?
I told you to stop writing screenplays.
I kept telling you
to stop wasting your
energy on a pipe dream.
How could you ignore my advice like this?
Unbelievable. How could you be this blind?
You even dumped the man who
gave you the diamond ring.
My gosh.
You're k*lling me.
As of today, you'll quit
writing screenplays.
Throw this out immediately.
Why are you on my case as well?
I'm disappointed as is.
This is k*lling me inside!
Exactly.
Stop wasting time on what won't work out.
You should go out and meet men.
Come on. You can't leech
off your in-laws forever.
It's embarrassing.
I'm too embarrassed to think
what Hyun Chul and Sun Young think of you.
Fine. I'll move out.
I'll leave.
Why you
My goodness.
Why is it?
Why won't they pick me?
Why am I not good enough?
Why isn't my work good enough?
Everyone who read it liked it.
I thought it was great too.
Why won't they pick my work?
Not again.
Why is she crying? I feel bad for her.
Why should I feel bad for her?
You lot.
I'll make you regret dropping me.
I'll make this very clear.
You'll regret it!
I lost my mind.
Why am I back here?
Oh, good.
Thank you.
What happened?
Did I come here voluntarily on my own?
Gosh. I don't remember a thing.
What happened?
It's me, Wednesday.
I don't know what it was about,
but don't drink outside on your own.
You'll end up with another guy like me.
- Hey.
- Are you okay?
Hey.
You dirtbag.
You piece of trash!
Did he
bring me here again?
That's insane.
What's wrong with you, Myung Dong?
- Thanks.
- Thank you.
- Here you go.
- Thank you.
Sure.
Have one.
It's a handmade burger.
I'm not giving one to just you.
I treated the whole crew.
Director Hong had one and so did Bong Soo.
No one will gossip because you eat this.
So you can eat it without worrying, okay?
Thanks, Ms. Park. I'll enjoy it.
Pil Seung.
Don't be so cold and scary.
It's our last sh**t.
We'll rarely get to meet after this.
Pil Seung. Will you look at me?
Ms. Park. I'm a bit busy.
Okay, then. I'll be quick.
Pil Seung.
I thought only of myself
and not of your situation.
From now on, I won't just
beg and whine
and ask you to date me.
Can't we just be close
and comfortable friends?
Can't we
just do that?
Sorry. I have something
urgent to take care of.
What was that?
He doesn't even want to be friends?
Cut, okay! That was great!
- Good job.
- Well done.
- Good job.
- Good job.
- Well done.
- Good work.
- Good for you.
- Well done.
You've been through so much.
Well done.
- Thank you.
- Good job.
Oh, gosh. Thanks.
Thank you.
- Well done!
- Everyone.
We had a lot of trials and tribulations.
Despite all that, I had you, a great team,
that did your best until the very end.
I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
"Straightforward Romance"
premières tomorrow!
I'm confident it will be a huge hit!
Ms. Park and Mr. Cha.
Despite the dreadful circumstances,
you two gave it your all
and I'm grateful for it.
You did a great job.
Thanks, Director Hong.
Assistant Director Ko, you too.
I thank the rest of the crew
for their hard work as well.
While filming this,
I fell in love with Do Ra.
Ms. Park. You did an awesome job.
I love you!
Well,
I think "Straightforward
Romance" will be
the first project to remain with me
for personal reasons.
I met people I loved as if it were fate.
The times we spent were magical.
I don't think
I'll forget it for a long time.
I don't want to part with you.
Goodness.
- Don't cry.
- Don't cry.
- That's an actress for you.
- Let's all show
- Do Ra some support!
- It's okay.
Pil Seung.
Will we really never
meet again after today?
I can't believe it.
I don't think it's right
to end it like this.
Let's have a cup of tea.
Ms. Park.
It was good to see you
again on this project.
I'm busy with other stuff,
so I won't have time to meet you.
This will have to do.
I hope you become a great actor.
I'll root for you always.
Why is he acting like a stranger?
He really won't see me again?
Then come see me when you're done.
I'll wait at the café until you show up.
Miss.
I'm sorry. We have to close.
Okay. Sorry.
Sure.
I'm sure you know her.
It's actress Park Do Ra.
Hello.
Park Do Ra! Cha Bong Soo!
- It hurts.
- Move out of the way!
- Bi Bi.
- Bi Bi, let go of it first.
Pil Seung.
Do Ra.
I'm feeling great now.
This reminds me of the old days.
I'm so happy.
Do you really not know
- why I did this?
- I don't know.
So you are a complete moron.
I like you.
I did it because I liked you.
- I'm Park Do Ra!
- Hey!
I met people I loved as if it were fate.
The times we spent were magical.
I don't think
I'll forget it for a long time.
Right.
It's a good thing.
This is better, anyway.
Pil Seung, where are you?
(I'm at the broadcasting station.)
Why are you lying until the end?
You came here to see me.
So, why are you saying you're
at the broadcasting station?
Why are you hiding your
feelings until the end?
Do Ra.
Do you think it's easy for me to like you?
It's hard for me too. It's
not easy for me either.
But because I like you, I'm
mustering up my courage.
But how could you be like this?
You came here because
you wanted to see me too.
You're only lying until the end.
I didn't realize you were such a coward.
Fine.
Let's never see each other again.
We're done working together anyway,
and there's no reason for
us to see each other again.
I won't see you again.
I'll never see you again.
Never again will I
like you.
You're right, Do Ra.
I came here because I wanted to see you.
I came here because I didn't
want to say bye to you.
But I kept lying to you until the end.
I'm sorry.
I was wrong.
I'll never do that again.
Pil Seung.
Yes, Do Ra.
Let's try dating.
Sure, it's no big deal.
Let's just like each other.
Are you sure?
Is this for real?
You can't go back on your word later on.
("Park Do Ra, Cha Bong Soo's
'Straightforward Romance' a hit!")
("Smooth sailing for Park Do Ra, Cha
Bong Soo 'Straightforward Romance'")
Gosh, but Park Do Ra is so pretty.
She's so pretty.
Did you watch "Straightforward
Romance" last night?
Yes, I did. It was so much fun.
Park Do Ra's acting was amazing.
It was incredible.
Her chemistry with Cha Bong Soo
- was amazing too!
- I know!
Mom! Do Ra! Do Jun!
Get out here, quickly!
Why? What is it?
Why, Do Sik? What is it?
All right.
"Straightforward Romance" is a total hit.
So many people are asking Do
Ra to be in their commercials.
We're being flooded with calls,
texts, emails, and even DMs!
Mom. I mean, Ms. Baek.
What shall we do about this?
What do you mean? We should accept them!
- Do Ra!
- Yes?
- Actress Do Ra?
- What?
My beautiful daughter. Oh, my goodness.
- Seriously.
- Hang on.
- What is it?
- What?
Yes? Oh, right. Hello.
Well, Do Ra's schedule is
pretty full at the moment.
Yes, all right. We'll check on
it and get back to you. Bye.
Indeed, Director Hong.
I knew you would become a success for sure.
Good job. I'm proud of you, Hong Jin Gu!
- It's all thanks to you, sir.
- No.
Thanks to your trust and support,
I was able to make this happen.
Victory, Ko Pil Seung.
Why, you little punk.
You were practically living
at the broadcasting station.
You totally hit a huge home run.
Ko Pil Seung, let's have you
make your directorial début!
Thank you! Victory!
Victory!
You two have saved me and
our broadcasting station.
For the wrap party for
"Straightforward Romance" today,
it's on me!
- Thank you, sir!
- Thank you, sir!
Great work.
Pil Seung, where are you?
I'll be going first. Victory!
Victory. What?
Hey, what
Did you sleep well?
I didn't sleep well.
Why not?
Because I missed you.
- I'll be going now.
- Yes, great work, Sun Young.
- I'll see you again next week.
- Okay.
- Thank you.
- Bye.
(Earnest Side Dishes)
(Pureun Bank)
Oh, my.
Why did she pay me such a big bonus?
Let's get some herbal tonics for Mother.
(Taejung Oriental Medicine Clinic)
Oh, yes.
- Goodbye.
- Thank you.
My dear Do Ra should take
these tonics, recharge herself,
and sh**t a bunch of commercials.
That way, I can pay off my debt.
Gosh, they say there's
always a silver lining.
It turns out that "Straightforward
Romance" is my saving grace.
(Oriental Medicine Clinic)
No. Why should I have to hide?
Seeing how you were about to hide,
I guess you do know that
you did something wrong.
What? Wrong?
What did I do wrong?
Who do you think you're talking to?
Look at the way you're talking.
Gosh, I shouldn't even bother with you.
What? Who are you to say that to me?
You sent your mother-in-law
to threaten me
and even took money from me.
Money? What money?
How dare you try to act innocent?
You sent your mother-in-law, threatened me,
and ripped off the principal and interest.
It was 50,000 dollars in total.
I even received a memorandum for it.
How dare you act like you
don't know anything about it?
Did you say 50,000 dollars?
My mother-in-law?
(Beauty and Mr. Romantic)
I've lost all of my affection for you.
I don't even want to live with you anymore.
What if she goes to see a
lawyer to discuss a divorce?
I couldn't be more thrilled right now.
You're by my side,
so what else could I want?
What did I just see?
Why did she get into
the curly-haired assistant
director's clunker?
Should I tell Ms. Baek about this?
You have one month to
change Do Ra's mind
and have her come to me.
If you don't,
I'll make sure your daughter is
done for good as a celebrity.
Pil Seung, I'm sorry. I hate
seeing you stressed out.
It's all right.
It's fine.
