[bunniefuu]

[For Eagle Brothers]

It's been a long time.
It's so good to see you.

I don't think we're close enough
to greet each other shaking hands.

That arrogant jerk.

I'm much older than him.
How dare he reject a handshake?

Who is he, Mr. Dokgo?

The fourth brother of Eagle Brewery.

They must've spoiled him rotten
for being the smart one.

That would explain
why he's such a brat.

How is it that...

there isn't a single decent person
in this family?

Kwang Sook.

Goodness.

Beom Soo.

Why is that punk, Dokgo Tak, here?

Did you run into him?

Yes. Just now,
outside the front gate.

Whenever there's an issue
with the brewery,

he shows up offering to buy it.

He offered to buy the brewery?

I'm so sick of him
that I want nothing to do with him,

but he's ridiculously persistent.

Being brazen is one thing,

but how can he even mention
buying this brewery?

After what he did to us?

Beom Soo, you're here.

Hey, Chun Soo.

Why are you worked up?
Is something wrong?

Well, Dokgo Tak offered
to buy the brewery from Kwang Sook.

That vile pig.

Don't let it get to you.

He's right.
Don't let him bother you.

Darn.

Don't you have classes today?

I was worried, so I stopped by
on the way to the university.

Have a seat.

Yes, this is Ma Kwang Sook.

Right.

Sorry?

What do you mean by that?

You're unable to extend my loan?

How so?

But I haven't missed
a single payment so far.

I don't care
whether the main office ordered it.

I'll head to the bank right now.

- What was that?
- Kwang Sook?

I think
I should head to the bank now.

What did they say?

That they're unable to extend
the maturity on my loan.

I have to pay it all back
by the end of the month.

I'll get going, then.

We cross mountains
and survive crashing waves...

only to face them once again.

A detective has been assigned
to the stale rice case...

of Eagle Brewery.

The investigation is now underway.

I'm glad to hear that.

How are cases like these
typically handled?

From what I hear,

the brewery
has substantial evidence.

It won't be too hard
to catch who framed them.

However, it will take some time...

to determine the motive...

and identify others
who were involved.

I see.

The main concern...

is whether the victims
can endure this storm.

In many cases,

the victims end up bankrupt...

even if
the police arrest the culprit.

Time is of the essence.

I see.

Attorney Jeong, can you continue
to handle this case?

Of course.
I'll keep you updated, sir.

What do I do
with all that makgeolli?

It'd be a waste to throw them away.

Right. It's been a while.

I hope everything
has been going well.

Can't you put in a good word for me?

Fine.

But he clearly doesn't want the job.

Gyeol, please.

Lieutenant Oh.

Congratulations
on completing your service, Mr. Han.

Thanks.

It seems...

that you've completely adjusted
to civilian life now.

Is that so?

You turned me down last time,

so I came with reinforcements.

I heard you turned down
her job offer.

Bom was devastated.

That's not it.

When Bom offered me the job,

I hadn't gotten anywhere
with my other interviews.

I couldn't accept the job offer,

knowing that I wasn't
a valuable member of society.

It didn't feel right.

That's why
I couldn't give her an answer.

I see.

Do you still feel the same way?

Since then, I've been offered a job
at Gwangseong Defense.

Hang on.

Isn't that a well-known
defense contractor?

It's a dream job for anyone
who served in the military.

I probably got lucky.

Hardly.

You're worthy of the job
and qualified.

Wait, does that mean...

I feel like
getting that job offer...

confirmed that
I'm a valuable member of society...

with something to contribute.

Does your initial offer still stand?

Of course.

I hope we get along, then.

Really?

I hope we get along as well.

Nice!

It's me, Mr. Park.

I saw the news.

You must be extremely stressed out.

Yes, emotionally and physically.

It's been driving me crazy.

That's actually why I called.

Could you help me just once more?

How much do you need?

Kwang Sook's here.

How...

How did it go?

What did they say?

It was decided
during the board meeting...

at the head office.

I'm afraid there's nothing
the branch can do about it.

My guess is that
the news spooked them.

This isn't chump change, though.

What do we do?

I reached out
to my former postmaster...

to ask for an additional loan,

but the post office has been strict
about loans lately,

so it won't be easy.

I'm a first-year professor,
so it won't be much,

but I'll see
if I can take out a loan...

from places
like the Teachers' Credit Union.

Thank you, Beom Soo.

It'll all work out, Kwang Sook.

I have to be in classes soon,
so I should get going.

Hurry on out.

Hello.

What brings you here?

- Detective?
- Right.

We're here to examine the scene.

The chief took an interest
in the case...

and assigned additional officers,
so we'll do our best.

Thank you so much.

Why don't we start...

- where the rice is stored?
- Sure.

- I'll lead the way.
- Okay.

My gosh!

Something huge could've happened!

Hello.

Mr. Oh.

I see you don't have any customers.

I came to be clear about something.

Nothing happened
between us last night, right?

Right.

Nothing happened.

Good.

It could be confusing,

so I came to make that clear.

As it has been so far,

I'm your Zumba instructor,
and you're my student.

Okay?

Okay.

Right.

[Culture Center Officer]

It's the culture center.

Hello, Officer. How have you been?

Pardon? What does that mean?

You want me to stop teaching
the Zumba dance here?

How can you say that?

You missed two classes
without calling ahead.

A few days ago, you missed one
because you were hurt.

The disgruntled members
are complaining nonstop.

I make no excuse for going AWOL.

I'll meet with the members
to apologize...

There are a few members
who support you,

but most of them want to learn
from a new instructor.

We found someone to take over
starting next week.

- Already?
- Yes.

I'm sure
you'll find another opportunity.

Wait, Officer!

Get up, Mr. Oh.

What happened has happened.

Let's be strong and accept it.

Take my hand and get up.

[Cultural Center]

Come on.

There's no need to cry.

Don't cry.

Ms. Kim left,

and I lost my job.

Why does nothing work for me?

We all experience breakups...

and lose jobs
as we make our way in life.

It's nothing at all.

Don't you cry. Stop now.

The brewery manager and I...

check the rice storage together
every morning,

so no one
could take a video like that.

Detectives, please catch the culprit
as soon as you can.

Now that I've seen
the rice and nuruk storage rooms,

it looks more likely
that the video was faked.

While we're here, we'll drop by
the convenience store...

and check a few more things.

Please help us out, detectives.

Don't be too nervous.
Everything will work out.

Right. Thanks for everything.

They'll catch the culprit for sure.
Let's not worry too much.

[Jang-Kwang Makgeolli,
Eagle Brewery]

What do I do...

with all this makgeolli?

How am I to cover the loan?

My gosh.

[LX Hotel Chairman Han Dong Seok]

Hello, Mr. Han. Why did you call?

Where are you?

I'm at the brewery.

I found a place that will take
the makgeolli that was returned.

Bring the makgeolli
to the hotel right now.

Right now?

Your car's not here yet.
I'll call your driver, Mr. Kim.

Don't.
Someone else is picking me up.

Hey.

Take care.

Mr. Han.

[Eagle Brewery]

Here we go.

Drive on.

Okay.

Where are we going, Mr. Han?

This man worked as a driver
for my family for almost 40 years.

After retiring,
he moved to the countryside...

to grow fruit.

I see.

I remembered him saying...

he used makgeolli...

instead of chemical fertilizers
in his orchard.

He uses makgeolli
instead of chemical fertilizers?

I looked it up online.

Makgeolli is full of amino acids,

organic acids, and vitamins,

which help the trees grow healthier.

Trees that are given makgeolli
bear fruit...

that are 0.5 to 1 Brix sweeter.

What's good for people
must be good for trees too.

I called, and he said
he was too short-staffed...

to collect the makgeolli himself.

- I offered to bring it to him.
- My goodness.

I could make the trip
on my own, then.

Why?

You don't want to travel with me?

It's not that.

You're used to nice cars.

You're probably uncomfortable
in a truck like this.

It's not my first time,

so it's not too uncomfortable.

Thank you
for looking out for me, Mr. Han.

To be honest,

what you did yesterday
and today touched me.

I'd been meaning...

to pay the guy a visit
as I hadn't seen him in a while.

Don't get too emotional.

Even so, I'm touched.

You're a busy man with lots to do,

and you're doing all this
to help just one supplier.

That can't be easy.

You're like a tsundere.

Don't be silly.

[Tsundere: Someone who is gruff
but reveals a warmer side]

- Go back inside.
- What?

Don't go to school.

Mom.

You don't need an MBA.

Quit the program.

Why are you being like this?

You don't go there to study.

You're going there to date someone.

Why would you put it like that?

Am I wrong?

Answer me. Did I make that up?

Yelling at you out of anger...

upsets me too.

But...

you're my only daughter,

and you've fallen for a loser.
You're so lost now.

Shouldn't I stay strong and alert
to stop you as your mother?

My professor isn't as weird...

or bad as you think.

If you keep this up,
I can go to your school...

and humiliate the professor
so he can't work there anymore.

- Mom!
- Do you think I can't?

Don't you dare!

Get a grip if you don't want things
to get that far!

Sit down.

Forget it.

I don't have time for a new hairdo.

When you need a change,

nothing beats
getting your hair done.

Just give me a trim, then.

Let me see.

Leave the mullet as it is.

- Why?
- That mullet is...

Oh Heung Soo's trademark.

That's why people say
you're old-fashioned.

This went out of fashion long ago.

No, wait.

- What is it now?
- The mullet is...

the symbol of my youth.

Youth?
You'd pass for a middle-aged guy.

No, stop.

Stop, please.

What is it now?

Then don't cut off the whole thing.

Leave half of it.

No! My mullet!

Stop!

No!

What did you do?

Did you cut it all off?

It won't look good
if you leave half behind.

Are you crying?

My youth...

and my love.

They are all gone...

with my hair?

How pathetic.

[Gongjubuyang Shampoo]

[G Hair Salon]

I'm known for my shampooing skills.

You'll be refreshed.

Just give it a lick and a promise.

I never give things
a lick and a promise.

It won't take long.

Even without a hair treatment,

your hair will look voluminous...

and silky smooth after this.

All right.

What do you think? Do you like it?

Yes.

You just shampooed my hair,
but my hair got softer.

And I feel refreshed too.

With the hair that was cut off,

your dark past has been cut off too.

So, you should
pull yourself together...

and start anew from this moment.

Okay?

I will.

What? It's my agency.

Hey, Jin Young.

Now?

Okay, I'll call a taxi now.
I'll be right there.

Why did the agency call you?

I choreographed for an idol group
a few days ago,

and they want to see me now.

My goodness.

Maybe they chose your choreography!

I have a good feeling about this.

See? As soon as the mullet is gone,

you're getting a lot of good news.

Oh, right. Ms. Ji.

Can I borrow some money
for the taxi?

Of course.

Here.

Thank you. I'll pay you back later.

Wait.

Mr. Oh!

Good luck!

- Wish me luck!
- Good luck!

[K-beauty pioneer G Hair Salon]

Now that Ms. Kim is gone,

things are going smoothly.

[Eagle Brewery]

[Eagle Brewery Unrefined Makgeolli]

My gosh.

Oh, there he is.

Hello.

Thank you for taking the trouble
of coming such a long way.

Have you been doing well?

My wife has a bad knee,

so she went
to our daughter's house...

to get artificial joint surgery.

Oh, no. Is that so?

This is the CEO of the brewery.

Hello. I'm Ma Kwang Sook
from Eagle Brewery.

Hello.

My gosh. Thank you so much
for the precious makgeolli.

I should've picked them up myself
from your brewery,

but I've been so busy...

with the pollination work lately.

Pollination work?

Yes. These days,

the number of bees and butterflies
has decreased,

so we have to
hand-pollinate the flowers...

by applying pollen manually.

It's called hand-pollination.

I see.

Some volunteers came here earlier...

and helped us out a little,

but there's still a long way to go
before the work is done.

Now that we're here,

why don't we help them out a little?

- What?
- Yes.

You can apply it gently like this.

Can you do that?

Of course.

All right, then.
Please try it slowly and have fun.

I'll go
and water down the makgeolli.

- All right.
- Okay.

Please go ahead.

All right. Shall we begin?

Wait.

Put this on.
The sunlight is really strong.

Gosh, I don't need it.

Just put this on.

We're alone, so it's okay.

Wait, no.

Hang on. I'm really fine.

Come on.

Why are you laughing?

You look too good in that hat.

Let's stop talking and get to work.

Okay.

My gosh. You're really good at this.

This is no big deal.

You should give it a try.
I'll help you.

Okay.

All right.

Touch it gently.

Like this.

You're good.

Make sure it doesn't stick together.
Sprinkle it gently.

The pear boy and the pear girl
are getting married today.

You should live happily ever after.

Oh, my.

What? You have one on your cheek.
Right here.

Okay.

No, not that side.

Here.

Well, I didn't want it
to get into your eye.

Then shall we start working again?

Let's do that.

Hello?

Hi, Ju Sil.

It's me, Ok Ja.

Hey, it's been a while.

What's this call about?

Would you be interested
in a part-time job?

A part-time job?

Doing what?

[3H Acupressure Bed]

- Goodness.
- My gosh.

Come on in.

- Is this your store?
- Yes.

It sure is nice to have money.

How is it that you never age?

Have you been secretly taking
preservatives?

My gosh. As if.

- Great.
- Please have some tea.

Thanks.

- Thank you.
- No problem.

- Have some.
- Sure.

Something urgent came up,
and I need to leave the country.

Could you look after my store for me
for about a year?

- Me?
- Yes.

There's another part-timer,
so you won't have to do much.

Just make sure
the store is run smoothly.

And there won't be
fixed office hours.

- How sweet.
- I know.

I can't offer you
a generous salary, though.

It'll be more like
extra pocket money.

Then...

pay me a year's worth up front,
and I'll think about it.

LX Fashion?

Didn't you say you got a job
at Gwangseong Defense?

It didn't feel right
to leave home and move to Ulsan.

I thought about my options,

and I think LX Fashion
is the best fit for me.

Planning and marketing is something
I've been wanting to learn about.

Planning and marketing
at a fashion company?

It'll be competitive
and challenging with a lot of work.

I doubt it'll be as challenging
as the training out at sea.

Of course.

Hearing that multiple companies
want to work with my brother...

makes me very happy.

She's not at the office today
either.

- Hello, Professor.
- Hello, Professor.

Come on in.

I see that Se Ri's not around.

It seems as though
something important came up.

It may not be ideal,
but let's get it done without her.

- Sure.
- Sure.

You must be upset since
it looks like I'm throwing away...

your precious makgeolli.

You're not throwing anything away.
It's being received.

Sorry?

The trees will enjoy my makgeolli...

and bear delicious fruit.

I don't see that
as throwing anything away.

The trees are receiving it.

The makgeolli...

was carefully made
with good ingredients.

So, enjoy the makgeolli
and bear delicious fruit.

I'll go and get some more makgeolli.

Sure.

Let me help you.

It's fine. I do this all the time.

I won't be gone long!

She has the heart of an angel.

Is that how you see her?

Yes. I know
it's not my place to say this,

but she reminds me...

of the late Mrs. Han...

whom I used to serve.

Do you really mean that?

As if I'd lie at this age.

You need someone like her
by your side.

Someone who lights up
everyone around her...

and also makes them feel at ease.

[Eagle Brewery]

[Unrefined Makgeolli,
Jang-Kwang Makgeolli]

[Eagle Brewery Unrefined Makgeolli]

All right.

I also like how you light up
whenever she's around.

- Me?
- That's right.

I've known you for a long time...

ever since your father was alive.

But I've rarely seen you
this relaxed and comfortable.

Wait. Watch out!

Careful.

- My gosh.
- Watch out.

The wheels can easily get caught
on the stiff weeds.

Goodness. Let me help.

- Are you okay?
- Yes.

- All right.
- Can you two...

stand over here?

Let me take a photo of you.

- A photo?
- Yes.

You should take a photo...

to remember the time you spent here.

Sure. Let's take one.

Okay.

All right.

Here we go.

Cheese.

Chairman Han,
your expression is too stiff.

You should smile.

I'll take it again. Please smile.

Here we go.

Cheese.

I appreciate the hard work
you did today.

Oh, please. It was nothing.

Thank you
for letting us enjoy the flowers.

Please take care.

Once again, thank you...

for bringing me
your precious makgeolli.

When I harvest in the fall,

I'll send you a batch.

- We should get going.
- Sure.

- Take care, then.
- Please get home safely.

Just a second.

I'll drive us back.

You?

But...

All right.

My gosh.

[Eagle Brewery]

It's not too late to swap seats.

You should pull over.

I only offered to drive
because I thought this seat...

would be more comfortable.

There's no reason to feel guilty.

It feels wrong
to be in your debt all the time.

I'll give you a chance someday
to pay back what you owe,

so don't feel too guilty.

As if someone like you
would need anything from me...

that might lead
to asking for favors.

Do I seem...

like I have everything
the world can offer?

Yes.

You have it all.

I guess you can say
I have almost everything.

But there's one thing I don't have.

What's that?

Maybe later.

I'll tell you
when it feels like the right time.

Wait.

This song.

That's right.

We listened to it together
last time.

You should get some sleep
while listening to this song.

I'm sure today was exhausting.

Then...

I'll just take a ten-minute nap.

[ENT specialist, Han Gyeol]

It'd be nice to relax
and enjoy your days...

as newlyweds.

What do you mean as newlyweds?

Have you proposed to her yet?

I'll make it happen soon.
Wait just a little longer.

A penny for your thoughts?

Thanks.

How's the wedding proposal
coming along?

What?

Weren't you going to
pop the question this weekend?

Right. And I will.

Yes, Professor.

You skipped the class
and didn't come to work,

so I was worried if you were sick.

Professor.

Could you please meet me?

Now?

Yes, now.

Sure. I'm in my office, so...

No, not in your office.

I'd like to see you
outside the office.

You didn't come to the class...

and even missed the meeting,
so I was worried.

I wondered if something was wrong.

After I ran out of your place
like that,

I couldn't bring myself
to see your face.

I was on edge that day.

When your professor is sick,

you can pay him a visit
to see if he's okay.

I am extremely sensitive
when it comes to issues like that,

so I overreacted.

You were not overreacting.

I...

I'm in love with you.

What?

I wasn't sure
about my feelings at first,

but everything is clear now.

It's true that I have...

feelings for you.

You're crossing the line here.

I'll cross the line.

No. I'm a professor,
and you are my student.

How could a student
have feelings for her professor?

I'm not a teenager.

I'm a graduate student.

I'm an adult.

And I'm a father.

A divorced one at that.

That doesn't matter to me at all.

Forget it.

It's nonsense
that we're having this conversation.

Let's drop this.

It took me
a lot of courage to say this.

Before saying no,

please think about it again.

As you know,

I've just regained my stability
after going through a stormy time.

I don't want to experience...

another whirlwind of emotions.

So are you being emotionally stirred
because of me?

That's enough.

I've never thought of you
as a woman.

You should think about it now.

No.

I have no intention
of considering it at all.

Professor.

If you say something like this
one more time,

I won't see you again.

And I'll fire you
as my teaching assistant.

I'll get going first.

Where's Se Ri?

She went out to meet Gyeol.

Oh, right.

What's happening to Eagle Brewery?

Isn't it obvious?

It will be shut down.

Is it that bad?

They won't be able to make...

even a penny with that very name
in this country.

Oh, right.

Do you know who I saw today?

The fourth son of Eagle Brewery,
Beom Soo.

What? How did you see Beom Soo?

I went to Eagle Brewery
earlier today...

and ran into him there.

Just because he was smart,

Mr. Oh spoiled him
when he was little,

so that brat is
really arrogant and impudent.

That shameless punk
with no sense of manners.

Why did you go to Eagle Brewery?

It is going under soon,

so I'm trying to take it over.

You promised me
you wouldn't mess with them.

I'm not messing with them!

The brewery is going down,

so I'm offering a good deal
to take it over.

I'm doing something nice here.

Why do you say
I'm messing with them?

My goodness.

[Eagle Brewery]

Thank you
for driving all the way here.

It's no big deal.

You also went through a lot today.

Thanks to you,

I could get rid
of the returned makgeolli...

and got to see the flowers too.

I could forget about all the trouble
and refresh myself.

I'm glad you did.

I'll get going, then.

Ms. Ma.

Good night.

[Eagle Brewery Unrefined Makgeolli]

- You're home, Dad.
- Hey.

Oh, my. I smell something delicious.

I'm making doenjang soup...

with shepherd's purse
and wild chives.

A soup with shepherd's purse
and wild chives? Sounds nice.

He seems to be
in a really good mood.

I know.

I guess something good
happened to him today.

What?

I'm home.

I haven't seen you all day.

Where have you been?

Well, I went to an orchard.

An orchard? Why?

I went to get rid
of the returned makgeolli.

Did you go
with your brothers-in-law?

No, with Chairman Han.

Chairman Han?

The chairman of the hotel?

Yes.

The thing is,
a man who used to be his driver...

started a fruit farm
in the countryside after he retired,

so he took me there.

Thank goodness!

My dear Almighty Lord.

Thank you so much!

Thank you!

All the hardships
are finally over, Kwang Sook.

What are you talking about?

I've been having this feeling
for a while,

but now I'm certain.

What?

I'm sure...

Chairman Han has feelings for you.

Here you go again. Seriously!

Will you come to your senses?

Why would he have feelings for me...

when he has nothing left
to wish for?

A man who's got everything
like him...

would blindly fall in love
without weighing things.

That's such an overinflated ego.

There's no cure for that!

Think about it.

If he isn't interested in you
at all,

why would he take time
out of his busy schedule...

to go out of town with you?

- We're his supplier...
- Come on.

Stop that nonsense.

This has nothing to do with you
being one of his suppliers.

If he didn't care about you,

he wouldn't do you
a favor like that.

Just a few days ago,
he let you stay...

in the room right next to his
in the hospital.

It was the VIP room, at that.

That's because...

the accident happened
while I was working at the hotel.

Forget the hotel.

Even if it happened
somewhere way more important,

who'd arrange for you
to stay in the VIP room?

Does it make sense to you?

Whatever. Stop the nonsense.

You silly thing.
How foolish you are.

Chairman Han keeps sending signals,

but you are not taking the hint.

Mom.

Don't say anything like that
to others, okay?

They will think you have dementia.

Don't wait for me. Just go to bed!

I'm going to the brewery.

Why is she going to the brewery
when there's nothing she can get?

She might become
the wife of a hotel chairman.

Oh, that would be lovely!

Wouldn't it?

What's this about?

We're close enough
to have a coffee together.

Get straight to the point.

The brewery's like a hornet's nest
that got poked hard,

and I have to get back.

That's why I asked to see you.

I heard you used insect-ridden rice.

What on earth happened?

You'd never do such a thing.

We wouldn't.

Why would we, when our conscience
is what kept us going?

The day we made our nuruk,

the sweet old ladies...

brought along a young woman
who said...

she wanted to learn
how to make nuruk.

Did that woman...

make a fake video about you?

Yes.

The old ladies
don't know her name...

or where she lives.

Wait.

Why are you so interested?

How could I not care?

Kang Soo's there.

I thought you had
zero conscience left...

when you took our money
and left with the former manager.

I had put aside my conscience,

but I'm still a mother.

Hearing you say that
gives me a weird feeling.

I had no choice back then.

His dad died in an accident
at a construction site,

and I gave birth three days later.

I could never have managed
as a single mom.

[Eagle Brewery]

You like Mi Sun.

- Don't be silly.
- You do.

- I do not.
- What?

There's a baby.

[Eagle Brewery]

The old owner of Eagle Brewery
was a good man,

and his sons were all close.

The whole neighborhood knew that.

Rather than living with me,

I thought he'd grow up
in a much better environment...

if he were with them.

I missed Kang Soo so much...

that I went to the brewery
every day.

[Office]

I haven't had that many jobs,

but if you give me any task...

Please help me.

That's how I got the job.

[i>Go to sleep[/i>

I looked after Kang Soo
in my free time.

[i>My dear baby[/i>

When the owner
and the staff weren't looking,

I even suckled him.

Never a day goes by
that I don't think about him.

You know that. You were there.

And you returned that favor
with betrayal?

How could you think of disappearing
with our funds?

I live with the guilt and shame.

I mean it, Ja Dong.

I have no time to listen to this.

Wait.

You must need some funds.

Take this.

- Are you taunting me now?
- Ja Dong.

Our CEO...

would rather become homeless
than take your money.

You came to the wrong person.

Yes, Mr. Park.

How much can I borrow, then?

I see.

Don't worry.

I'll ask someone else.

Okay. I'll be in touch.

He can't get the loan?

It looks almost impossible.

It's not much,
but spend it where it's needed.

[Daehan Bank]

No, Kang Soo.

Take it.

I gave most of it
to So Yeon as alimony,

so there's not much left.

[Daehan Bank]

I'm not sure...

if I want to owe you money.

You won't owe us.

That's almost hurtful to hear.

Thank you.

It's hardly enough.
What do we do now?

We still have a few days.

If I keep asking around,
we'll find a solution.

I wonder if things went well
at the agency.

Hello?

Are you drunk?

Mr. Oh, I'll come in.

You can't drink soju
without a snack.

What on earth happened?

Did it not work out at the agency?

They said...

my moves were just too old.

In front of kids half my age,

I was treated like a has-been.

I was humiliated.

What?

I had put my everything
into this choreography.

But it was for nothing.

It's not like...

it's the only agency in the country.

They're all the same.

I don't stand a chance.

I'm done for.

Darn it.

Do they all have an eye ailment
or something?

How could they not recognize...

Winners' backup dancer,
Oh Heung Soo?

How do you know
I was Winners' backup dancer?

I never told anyone in class.

I'm a Jang Mi.

"Jang Mi?"

Jang Mi.
That was the name of your fan club.

I had a fan club?

You did.

There were as many as seven members.

We met when I went to...

a taping of a music show.
You don't remember?

[Winners' treasure,
I love you, Heung Soo. You're mine!]

You put the hat you were wearing...

on my very head.

Are you Jang Mi?

Yes.

I vaguely remember
something like that.

Why didn't the fan club do anything?

Less than a month
after I took over...

as president,

my dad's business went bankrupt,

so we moved to the US.

I see.

Whenever I got discriminated...

and the kids bullied me,

I watched videos of you dancing...

to get through it all.

My dance comforted you?

That's touching.

Are you...

the Rose Scissors who donated...

whenever I streamed live?

Rose Scissors said,
"I'm always watching you,"

and donated another 100 dollars!

Yes, that was me!

Ms. Ji... No.

Ok Bun.

You were always there,
helping me out.

I was.

To me, you are the best artist.

The best artist?

Of course.

No matter what others say,

you are
the best artist in the world.

Thank you, Ms. Ji. I mean,

Ok Bun.

Heung Soo!

Darn it!

Wait. No, don't.

It's bad, sir.

Why? What's going on?

That woman...

was arrested.

What woman?
Who are you talking about?

I thought
she had gone to the Philippines!

She was going to leave...

after taking her sick mother
to a facility.

We were settling on a date when...

Her flight's tomorrow,

but she was arrested today.

Is that the best you could do?

Darn it!

Why was this so difficult to handle?

How incompetent can you be?

She told me she'd fly out
the day the coverage aired.

She promised!

I'm sorry, sir.

[Silla Brewery]

I'll make myself clear.

I knew nothing about this.

You orchestrated this
all by yourself. Got it?

Sir, I don't think I follow.

One of us will have to...

clean up this mess, right?

You understand what I'm saying,
don't you?

Yes.

I think I do.

Good.

Not saying anything
won't make what you did disappear.

We already have enough evidence...

to prove your crime.

I have to ask.

Why did you film a fake video
and report it as a whistleblower...

when you don't even work
at Eagle Brewery?

We looked into your life...

and found nothing
that suggests a motive.

This wasn't recreational.

Didn't someone put you up to this?

A flight to the Philippines
was booked under your name.

Attempting to flee overseas
is grounds for being detained.

Do you understand me?

[Chairman Han Dong Seok]

Come in.

They have the female suspect
in custody, sir.

The police
are currently interrogating her.

Really? That's great news.

Unfortunately, the suspect...

doesn't seem to be talking.

The longer this drags on,

the more
the innocent party will suffer.

Can you find a way
to contact the suspect...

and get her to confess?

Please figure out a plan
to resolve this matter quickly.

Yes, sir. The Legal Team
will do everything in its power...

to swiftly resolve this matter.

Good.

[Eagle Brewery]

[Eagle Brewery]

Chairman Han?

What brings you by unannounced?

I wanted to deliver
the good news in person.

Good news?

I take it that
they haven't contacted you yet.

They have the suspect in custody.

What? Really?

No way!

I had no idea
they'd make an arrest so soon.

Thank you, Chairman Han.

I'm happy to see you're thrilled.

Kwang Sook.

Goodness.

Chairman Han, is that you?

Chairman Han?

Hello, sir.

Yes, hello.

Hello, ma'am.

Hello.

[For Eagle Brothers]

Who on earth would do such a thing?

What beef
could they possibly have with us?

Maybe I should just marry my fan
who owns multiple buildings.

Then I could take care
of the brewery's debt.

I won't try to tie you down...

just because
we spent a night together.

What on earth are you saying?

I dare you to say one more word.

If you do,
I'll take my life right here.

Do you recognize me?

I'm Se Ri's mom.

What?

So? Who orchestrated it?

What?

Silla Brewery?
