This place is a paradise for men.
This is nice with Young Bin finally coming out of his cave.
It was only for a few days.
- I still can't get over it, though. - Forget So Hee.
The faster you get over it, the better.
Don't bring up her name from now on.
It's because of Eun Gab.
Are you really not going to work with him?
He's in a very tight spot right now, you know.
I know that, but I can't forgive him for forcing So Hee out.
He did that for you, you know that.
I really want to think about whether I should continue to work with him.
He wasn't even good to me. I don't know about this one.
You're different. Young Bin and he were together since the beginning.
Does Mr. Kim know Young Bin's upset?
He hasn't called me since we all went together to see Ms. Jo.
He's probably furious with Young Bin.
It's better that way.
He's at it again. Are you at your adolescence?
He's a little boy rebelling against his dad.
- What are you talking about? - It's a drone.
Is that guy controlling it?
Look over there.
We don't look like perverts right now, do we?
This will be the only time we get to see a woman's body this up close.
- It's not wearing any underwear. - I know.
- Let's go. - Okay.
Isn't that girl a bit weird?
I think I recognize her, but I can't remember.
Long time no see.
- It's been too long. - Hey.
- What are you doing here? - Hey, Joon.
I was just shopping here and ran into these two.
How are your concerts going?
I do concerts and audition for movies.
How did "War Terminator" go?
It's going well.
It's going to be a mega hit.
How is So Hee? You two are close, aren't you?
She's doing fine.
Say hello. This is Seung Hyo. She's a photographer.
She knows a lot of celebrities.
She's very well-connected. Talented, too.
- Hello. - Hello.
We've met before.
At Busan International Film Festival.
Oh, that's right.
Now, I remember.
- I do remember. - That's right.
Everyone's talking about "War Terminator".
They don't know you're not doing it, yet.
Just ignore it.
I want to leave Seoul.
Should we go stay somewhere else?
Are you trying to run away after making such a mess?
I just want to run away from everything.
- I want to take some time off. - Stop it.
I know a place like that.
What?
How about Jeju Island?
A friend of mine has a villa in Jeju Island.
He'll let you use it.
Thank you for the offer, but we're fine.
Is the place far from people?
It's a remote area free of tourists. It's very quiet there.
- Can I go now? - What are you talking about?
It's possible.
Let's go tomorrow.
Help me.
Why is he so excited?
We should go.
Thank you.
Ms. Jo.
- There you are. - What's going on here?
We were talking over some drinks.
Why does it matter? I heard everything's been taken care of.
We could've met some other time.
She's drunk and asleep. Don't mind her.
You two must have lots of free time to be drinking at this hour.
I worked during the weekends and pulled an all-nighter last night.
I'm finally getting some rest.
Take a seat.
I'll sit over here.
You said you had some important matter to discuss.
We're doing a new movie with more investments.
She's made a hefty sum of money after handing over her shares.
We're celebrating.
- Good for you both. - It really is.
But there's only one problem.
What are you going to do with Cha Young Bin?
We told you.
Young Bin said it himself that he can't do the movie.
You're famous for managing your actors.
And Young Bin is a passionate actor so I didn't see this coming at all.
It went far off the track than I had anticipated.
I understand. I really am sorry about that.
I dumped An So Hee like you asked and had to get her back again later.
Thanks to you, I'm in debt to them.
You made a clown out of me.
Young Bin is...
very stubborn.
I'll say this again. He won't be doing the movie.
Is that you, Eun Gab?
You brought your car, right?
Give me a ride home later, will you?
- What did you say? - It's...
all going to work out.
Looks like that alcohol made her travel back in time.
Does she have dementia or what? Is she doing that on purpose?
Don't mind her.
He's really not going to do it?
No. I don't think I can talk him into doing it.
You think you can do this to me?
You scared me.
He says he won't.
He can't. You heard him.
I can't get a new actor at this late stage.
I hate things going wrong during pre-production.
Make things right again or else.
Or what?
There will be consequences.
We admit it's our fault.
We'll compensate for the breach of contract according to the contract.
Do you think you can walk away that easily?
You know me.
Do as you wish, then.
Gosh. You know she's a lightweight drinker.
Why did you make her drink so much?
I'm going.
I paid for that.
Excuse me. One more bottle, please.
- Yes, Mr. Kim. - Hey.
How could you not call me just because I don't call you?
I was being careful because you seemed very upset.
Upset? I'm furious.
Is Young Bin upset as well?
Yes. He still is.
Gosh, darn it.
Everything I do is for his own good. Why doesn't he get it?
Has he changed or have I misjudged him all this time?
It's just that he's sensitive about matters related to So Hee.
So Hee? It's all over now.
Why does he care about her? I really don't understand.
So he has the loyalty for his ex-girlfriend,
but not for me?
I'll talk to him once he starts feeling better.
Give me a bit more time.
I met Ms. Jo today.
She was very upset.
- What did she say? - She wants me to make things right.
How am I supposed to do that when Young Bin doesn't want to?
I'm just worried she might send trained killers after us.
It's fine. All we need to do is pay them back.
We're morally responsible, but we can't do anything about that.
But the penalty for the breach of contract is really severe.
We'll have to find him a new movie soon.
We'll pay them off from that.
- All right. - And one more thing.
Don't let him out of the house.
People will be bashing him once the news gets out.
Don't let him surf the web. Understood?
Bye.
It was for his own good.
My... My car.
"My car"?
Is your car more important than me?
Are you trying to be like Young Bin?
I left the agency with you.
Don't you think I'm loyal?
You are. I'll give you that.
Let's get some food.
It'll all work out, Boss.
Don't worry.
It's going to be okay.
Don't do that. It's rude.
How is it rude?
We're both unemployed, Eun Gab.
"Eun Gab"?
Why you little... You shouldn't do that.
That's not right.
Boo-hoo.
Eun Gab, Eun Gab, Eun Gab.
Are you a drug dealer or something?
See? What did I say about those clothes?
Look who's talking.
Who were you talking to?
- Was it Ji An? - It was Mr. Kim.
We should figure out what the next movie...
Forget it. Stop talking about it.
He talks like royal blood.
Hey. Our ancestors were noble men.
Is it really okay for us to go to Jeju Island?
Wasn't she a bit odd?
Seung Hyo? Why?
I looked her up, but I couldn't find anything related to her work.
- So what? - Joon is right.
She said she saw us at the film festival.
There are scammers trying to con celebrities at after parties.
She could be a con artist.
That's right. She'll try to befriend us...
and upload pictures of us on her SNS.
There are so many celebrities who got ripped off like that.
We should be more careful just in case.
Aren't we being overly careful?
She's just letting us use a villa in Jeju Island.
I tried to look for her Instagram account...
but she didn't have one.
I doubt she's who you think she is.
I just want to get out of Seoul.
Why is it red?
These two said...
pink was too embarrassing.
The car he drove when he went to see So Hee was this color.
That's right. It'll bring him back painful memories.
Tease all you want.
We will. Get in, guys.
Four men riding a small, red car in Jeju Island...
- Get in. - Can we all fit in here?
Is this some kind of a mission?
- Gosh. - I'm sorry.
This car looks like gochujang.
Look at the waves.
Like the tides, my heart is broken
Like the wind, my heart is shaking
Like the smoke, my love faded away
I sigh and sigh and sigh
I will erase you from my memories
Nice.
Gosh, I just want to live here already.
Slow down. Watch out.
Stop.
I'll do the talking.
You can cross, Ma'am.
- I like your clothes. - Scumbag.
What?
Did you see that?
I guess they have different hand gestures over here.
That was harsh.
Maybe it has a different meaning.
What was that?
Nothing?
No.
I thought you didn't eat lunch.
I have to cope with the stress.
I have to find Young Bin a new movie soon.
You won't find anything this year.
It's too late for that now. The casting is full.
That's why I came to see you.
Are you serious?
I was the investment manager for that movie.
The movie your actor bailed out on. "War Terminator".
And you come to me for help?
You know the situation we're in. Cut me some slack.
If people at the company finds out I was with you, they'll fire me.
What about Lotte and New Entertainment?
They're not looking for a new actor anytime soon.
Try movies coming out next year.
I told you. We need money fast.
The breach penalty is too much. I'm not even employed right now.
Is Ms. Jo demanding everything according to the contract?
I wish that was everything. She wants Young Bin back on the movie.
You should've seen the way she said it. It was scary.
You must be going through a lot.
I'm dying. Help me.
Why did he have to bail all of a sudden?
Ms. Jo has every right to be upset.
Do you think I wanted this? One day, they're dating...
and the next day, they're not. What am I supposed to do?
Cha Young Bin has a bad reputation.
People are hearing rumors about him.
Nobody's going to want to work with him for a while.
Why does Young Bin have a bad reputation?
- Who said that? - Words spread quickly around here.
Who exactly is saying something like that?
It's you investor people, isn't it?
You're spreading the word, aren't you?
Are you actually serious?
I'm just a lowly, white-collar worker.
Why are you doing this to me?
I don't know why I did that.
Eat up.
Here you go.
Eat. Eat up.
It's so salty.
- I'll give you my broth. - Forget it.
This place is out of this world.
It looks haunted. Like the house from "The Conjuring".
Why do you have to kill the mood?
It's nice and quiet.
It is. It's a quiet neighborhood.
Let's go inside.
This house is really roomy.
This is the kind of house I want to live in.
I'm tired of living in a house that looks like a hotel room.
I was expecting to find ladies in bikinis by the pool.
Forget that. This is therapeutic.
Get some rest.
Joon. That's all we did back home.
Watch your mouth.
I do a variety show now.
Do you want to get pranked again?
Don't mention the words "prank" or "So Hee" ever again.
Why do you have to be on your phone even here?
I'm reading a news article on "War Terminator".
There aren't any news articles about it yet.
There will be.
Don't worry about that. Let's go do some groceries.
Yes. I read the scenario.
I read the scenario.
What do you mean, how?
I have a way of getting things done.
I just wanted to know your thoughts on the cast for the movie.
Hello. Yes.
Young Bin isn't doing "War Terminator" anymore.
It's a bit of a long story.
We're saying we want to do your movie.
So? Really?
That's the guy they're going with?
But isn't his schedule...
Never mind. I was just asking. Good for him.
Nothing?
No.
I miss the time when people begged me to go over their scripts.
What do we do now?
Is it really because of the rumors?
This is really bothering me.
Is the air conditioner even working? Why is it so hot in here?
It's working just fine.
Are all small cars like this?
Can't you turn it up?
You should feel honored.
I don't even let my boyfriend in here.
You're so small-minded.
Why do you have to be like that? I was outside the whole time.
What do we do now?
We have to find something else.
But Young Bin will insist on doing movies.
Where on earth is Young Bin...
when we're out here working our bottoms off?
Can you turn up the air conditioner?
- Is this it? - Yes.
- Let's go. - Okay.
Gosh, it's so hot.
It's so hot out.
It's so hot.
You're early.
Where's Young Bin?
He's outside.
Should we leave?
I'm all dressed now.
I just got here from Seoul.
I wanted to get out of my sweaty clothes. It's fine, right?
Of course. Of course it is. Right?
Of course. Don't let us bother you.
- Make yourself at home. - At home.
It's okay. I'm going to be staying at a place nearby.
I just came to check on you.
What's going on?
- Hello. - Hello.
How did you get in here?
I have the keys, too.
Do you like the place?
Yes, we do. Thank you.
Don't mention it. It was vacated anyway.
- Do you want to hang out? - What?
No, we want to stay inside and rest today.
Shut it.
What about you? Do you want to come with me?
Yes! I want to come.
I'll come as well!
What are they doing?
Yes.
- Isn't it nice? - Yes.
This is called "The Lonely Tree".
A lot of people come here to take photos.
Do you want to take one?
With me? Yes.
You too.
Thank you.
One, two, three.
One, two.
Isn't it so nice here?
- Yes, it's nice. - It's like the Serengeti.
On a wide plain...
stands a lonely tree.
What?
Whenever I see this tree, I'm reminded of my school days.
Were you a loner when you were in school?
Yes, I was alone.
I'm a little different from other people.
It doesn't matter if you're different. It's unique.
Loneliness and solitude.
I know them very well.
Do you?
What do you know? You weren't a loner.
They didn't have loners back in the days.
I'm not that old.
You must be out of your mind since all you do is kill time.
I'd be dead if I was out of my mind.
- I hope you die. - No, you die.
Why are you fighting?
Why are you embarrassing me in front of her?
Shall we take a photo together?
Sure.
Mr. Kim.
Don't call me that.
Just call me "Hey" or "Eun Gab".
I was kicked out because you guys stabbed me in the back.
Well...
Ms. Kang will be here soon.
So? What do you want me to do?
She'll get upset if she sees you like this.
- I'll be in trouble. - What can I do?
All the films Young Bin might do are coming here.
I see.
- But... - I'll leave soon, okay?
Okay.
Have you been eating bread?
Yes.
Did you find anything?
Here. Isn't this writer famous?
Yes.
Can you read Korean?
Boss. I can read Korean well.
Gosh.
This is interesting.
"A story about male fashion designers".
It's a growing-up story. Young Bin will like this.
I'll show it to him.
How can he do this to me?
I can understand why he did that,
and I understand how you feel, too.
You need to take a side.
Are you taking his side as a fan while you're scared of me?
It's not like that. I'm saying I understand both sides.
The world is complicated.
My head is complicated, too.
Young Bin is making it worse.
Gosh.
How long has it been for the two of you?
I first saw him before I went to the army. That's six years.
Then I worked with him for four years.
It's been a while with Mr. Kim, hasn't it?
What do you plan on doing?
What if he gets mad and doesn't sign with you?
Of course, he will.
He'll get over it after a while.
We have a mutual trust.
We're loyal to each other.
We just don't get along sometimes.
You don't get along with him sometimes,
but you should still work with him.
I should stay with him.
Things have been bad for him.
Although we don't get along like you said.
He doesn't understand me...
but he will later.
Was I too cruel for telling them to cut So Hee? No way.
You'll see. Once he meets someone else, he'll be fine again.
It'll be hard for Young Bin from now on.
- I have to help him. - You're so nice.
Can you be nice like that to me?
Be quiet.
Hey, I've been with Mr. Kim for two years,
but he hasn't done anything for me.
That's not true.
He got you in auditions, but you did bad and failed.
What's wrong with you? Are you taking his side?
- It's the truth. - What's going on with you two?
You've been getting along. What happened?
Maybe it's because I'm close with that woman.
No way.
She isn't interested in you.
Are you in a love triangle now?
Really? I thought you said that she's strange.
I talked to her in person, and she's nice.
He likes any kind of girl.
What should I say? I want to protect her.
She has a sad past. She's a woman with a past.
I'm weak for those things.
You were just born weak.
Also, you're the one with a sad past.
You look like someone beat your face in the past.
Watch your mouth.
- Let's drink. - All right.
- Cheers! - Cheers!
That's not a woman, don't touch it.
It feels wet in here.
They were right about Jeju Island being humid.
That's not important.
Look at this. Mr. Kim sent it.
- What is it now? - It's a drama script to review.
He wants to know what you think.
He's curious now? Why didn't he just decide by himself?
Stop that. I'm sick of it.
What do you want me to do?
I don't want to get between your fight.
- Did you read it? - No.
I should. They sent us five episodes. It's a lot to read.
Why are you sighing?
I quit "War Terminator" myself,
but it feels awkward reading something else.
I should still do it.
- Gosh, bugs. - What?
I hate bugs so much.
I left my screen open...
and saw something come in. It was a spider.
I really hate bugs.
Joon hates bugs, too.
Where is he?
I have an idea.
- One, two, three. - Let's go.
Okay.
Fire in the hole.
What is this?
Bug, bug, bug! Who is it?
Was it you?
You little... I hate bugs.
I'm sorry, Ho Jin and Young Bin made me do it.
Come over here.
Why? A bug just came into the room.
Why are you acting strong? You were weak in front of Julien.
That hurts.
It's hot, humid, and full of bugs.
What if a ghost shows up?
Seung Hyo.
The door was open.
Do you want some wine?
I would love to.
Turtle will probably go sleep.
No, I don't sleep. I never sleep.
Shall we go?
Go away.
- Should we drink? - Sure.
Be healthy.
It tastes different.
It tastes erotic.
A little. So is the music.
You graduated from Yale, right?
Yes, I majored in the arts.
Your dad is a diplomat, and you work in film,
photography, and do art directing? What a lie.
A lie?
I'm just saying other people might think it's a lie.
Gosh, I have a stomachache. Excuse me.
My goodness.
He was rude. Did he offend you?
No, it's okay.
Do you take photos as well?
What kind of work do you do exactly?
I help singers find their concept as well as their albums.
I do it for actors as well.
Whom did you help? I'm just curious.
Well...
They're all famous. I'm close with all of them.
I see.
What kind of image should I aim for?
I'm shooting a variety show next week.
An animal.
Africa.
Long.
Long?
Are you talking about a wild image?
I'm both wild and intelligent.
I'm both cold and hot.
They co-exist in me.
Do you want to do it with me tomorrow?
- Do what? - I mean a photoshoot.
A nude photoshoot.
Nude?
What's wrong? It's art.
I hope you're not thinking of something else.
No way. What do you mean?
Let's do it. Sure.
All right.
Okay.
I'll look forward to it.
I only eat nude sushi.
Really?
- What are you doing? - What?
I couldn't sleep.
Are you drinking again?
I was going to sleep after this.
You've been drinking ever since you left the company.
You haven't been drinking in a while.
You can hardly call this drinking.
- Are you all right? - Yes, I'm fine.
If it's hard, just tell me.
I'm fine. Everything is okay.
I'll just avoid...
seeing Ok Ja again.
I'll have to go independent now.
I'm frustrated because of Young Bin.
What about him?
There was a misunderstanding so he's mad at me. It'll be fine.
- I knew it. - What?
You're always sensitive when it comes to Young Bin.
That's because I took him in from the beginning.
Sometimes, I feel like you care more about him than our family.
What are you talking about?
Do you like men?
How long has it been?
I like women and only you.
Do you want me to show you?
How?
Come here.
Come on.
Gosh.
- Call me like you used to. - What?
- Baby? - Baby.
Well?
Mom!
This chair can definitely handle two people.
- It's such a sturdy chair. - I'm glad we bought it.
- You weren't sleeping? - That's dirty.
Dirty? We're...
Yoo Bin. Yoo Bin?
Hey...
We're married. Yoo Bin.
This is how you were born.
Don't laugh.
Did you read it?
- How was it? - Okay.
I read it a few times and it's good.
There isn't any romance.
Good. That way, you won't quit after breaking up with someone.
Why are you poking where it hurts?
You're supposed to cut out where it hurts to heal faster.
- What are you doing? - Spacing out.
I slept, but it doesn't feel like I did.
- Because of the bed? - Isn't it too humid?
My clothes and the sheets were too humid.
There are too many bugs.
There was a cute bird on the screen so I went to look,
and it was a moth.
Is it because it's my first? Jeju Island isn't a paradise.
Where's Joon?
Whose is this?
My goodness.
What is it?
- Was that yours? - Yes.
Do you have...
to shave right now?
What nonsense are you talking about?
Nothing.
You're so strange.
It's working pretty well today.
This is nice.
What is it? I'm just shaving.
Go ahead.
Please call me when you're done.
Okay, bye.
He won't stop calling me.
What did Eun Gab say?
He'll have a meeting soon.
He says it's going well. It'll be aired right away.
- That's good. - He'll call us after the meeting.
You should start talking to Mr. Kim now.
When we're back in Seoul. Not now.
This one's lasting for a long time.
You were always the one to hold grudges since elementary school.
Elementary school?
I remember you couldn't do this then.
Where you kick and turn backwards.
What are you talking about?
What are you doing?
My goodness.
I was really good at this back in school.
My phone, my phone.
- You're good. - Where did Joon go anyway?
He must be with Seung Hyo.
They look fishy.
Gosh.
- Hello. - Hello.
You're a little late.
I had to make breakfast for the boys.
Come in.
Okay.
Shall we start right away?
Pardon?
Take your clothes off.
Okay.
Come with me.
- Turtle. - You came, too?
She asked me to come in for a photoshoot.
Me too.
I thought she only asked me.
She must have called us both.
Come out when you guys are ready.
- Okay. - Okay.
Are you going to do it?
I'm already naked.
If I take this off, I'll be bare.
I can do anything she wants me to.
Seung Hyo...
Yes. I'm going to do it, too.
I'm ready. Are you?
I think I need more time.
I'm ready.
Do you want to take the front or the back first?
Front?
- Back? - What about the side?
Are you really going to do it?
Don't you know art?
He's always watching porn so he can't understand this.
I'll do it. I know what art is. I'll do it.
We'll take whoever is longer first.
Me?
What do you mean, me?
We need to compare it.
Gosh.
Hurry up and take it off.
- Okay. - Yes.
Great.
We didn't get to take where we wanted to,
but both of you were great.
Can you still call it a work of art?
Yes, of course. It's art.
Art. I see.
I've never done anything like it.
Nude photography is not pornography. It's art.
Don't be shy about it.
You both have such beautiful bodies.
Thank you.
Among many people I've photographed,
you two certainly have the best bodies.
Turtle, you have such nice hips.
And Joon, your shoulders are so broad.
- What's the matter? - Well...
No one has ever complimented my body before.
As a matter of fact, I haven't heard any compliments lately.
Turtle, you're so positive and bubbly.
That puts people in such a happy mood.
You even noticed that about me.
Joon. You come across as manly, but you're actually quite sensitive.
You're also very considerate.
Right, I do have that side.
Both of you are wonderful people.
I'm so glad that I decided to come to Jeju Island.
- We're glad, too! - We're glad, too!
I really like that character.
He has artistic charisma,
and I also like that he's a chilled guy who likes to joke around.
I think it's perfect for Young Bin.
I see.
- Are the first five scripts ready? - Yes.
In the third episode,
the character realizes his potentials as a designer...
- and develops his abilities. - Yes.
He literally transforms himself in that episode.
- Gosh, I really liked that part. - Oh, did you?
A great writer,
an amazing director, and an ideal airtime.
We have nothing to complain about. Let's seal the deal.
Really?
- Is there a problem? - Well, actually...
What is it?
Young Bin won't play the lead character.
He'll be playing the second important character.
What do you mean?
We've been talking to another actor about the lead role.
We already sent the contract to him.
Young Bin will have to play the deuteragonist.
Hold on a second. What was it? That character...
Do you mean the designer's friend? His rival?
- Yes. - You should've told me sooner.
You sent the script for Young Bin, so I assumed that it'd be the lead.
They're both main characters.
That's what you guys say. Production teams always say things like that.
His name will come second in the credit roll.
But it'll air in the prime time, and I think it'll be a hit.
Hey, Boss! Boss!
Boss, Boss.
So what do you say?
The film didn't work out, and even this drama isn't helping us.
So we won't do it?
Of course not. Young Bin is way too good for that role.
Gosh, this is seriously driving me crazy.
- Who is it? - Cup Noodles...
I mean, it's from Ho Jin.
He's saying that Young Bin is looking forward to this drama.
What are we going to do, then?
You keep asking me that. Is that all you can say?
I'm asking because I don't know what we should do.
I don't know, either.
I've only read up to Episode Five. I don't know if the role would be...
okay for him or how the plot would unfold.
I'm not sure if Young Bin should do this drama.
Then look into it.
What?
You can read the scripts in advance.
I've already read up to the fifth episode...
In advance?
Right, I can do a little digging.
I should reach out to Ms. Kang. That's right, Ms. Kang.
Boss, Boss. Hey.
Hear me out.
I'm really busy, too.
Gosh, Mr. Kim. I see that you're working very hard these days.
I'm sorry, though.
I won't tell you the plot no matter how long you wait there.
I'm not asking you to reveal the entire plot to me.
The second main character, Yun Soo.
Just tell me what happens to him later in the plot.
To be honest, I'd love for Young Bin to play the lead character.
- He's so handsome. - I know, right?
If that's the case, you should push for it.
Do you think I have such power as a writer?
What? When it comes to dramas, writers hold the most power.
Broadcasting stations hold the most power. Get it right.
You sound so clueless.
Writers come in second.
Not even. We're at the bottom of the chain.
Okay, fine. Just show me Yun Soo's lines.
Tell me what happens to him in later episodes. Just the key points.
I don't know. I don't know anything, okay?
I can't even focus on this because of you.
I'm starting to get annoyed by you right now.
We've worked together a few times.
You know how I work.
I never reveal my synopses...
or any of my scripts in advance. You already know that.
See? It died.
I have to start all over again.
You're stressing me out.
You're writing and playing the game at the same time. How quirky.
This is how I de-stress.
Relieving stress immediately is so important.
What did you study in university?
Korean Literature? Creative Writing?
Neither.
- Microbiology. - I see.
I'm not surprised.
All right. Don't mind me and keep working.
(PLOT SUMMARY FOR "STRIPE")
Hang on a second. This is...
Wait. What are you doing...
- I see. This is what happens. - Mr. Kim.
No, you can't read that.
- He's not in here? - Go away.
- You can't see this. - Oh, so that character...
- Have some manners. - Betrays and kills himself.
- Where? - He dies in Episode Nine.
- You can't know these things. - So is that it for him?
This is confidential information.
Leave me alone now.
Is this what the entire Olle Trail is like?
How would I know? It's my first time here.
On the internet, I saw little streets with many people.
This is a bit odd. We haven't seen a single soul for about an hour.
Are we on a deserted island or what?
Did we get lost?
No, I saw a sign that said "Olle Trail".
Gosh, we don't even have water on us. I'm starving, too.
We came so unprepared.
I guess not everything about Jeju Island is awesome.
- You heard that sound, right? - What was that?
- What was it? - Shall we keep going?
Yes, let's go.
- Gosh. - Darn it! My goodness!
Goodness gracious.
(MR. KIM EUN GAB)
Yes, Mr. Kim.
What now?
He doesn't want me to be in the drama?
I'm not sure. He didn't get into the details.
He's doing that again.
He gets all secretive when there's a problem.
He must be telling you not to do it because there's a serious problem.
I don't even know any more.
Gosh, Eun Gab is too much.
He keeps disappointing me.
This is actually more legitimate than you quitting the film.
I'm not in the mood for jokes.
Me, neither.
Shall we just go back to Seoul?
Yes. We should go back and try to find a project for you.
All right, let's do that.
It's supposed to be awesome here, but my mood is ruining it all.
But I must say that the ocean looks so worry-free and calm.
You're right.
Chang Min will get angry later if you don't explain it to him.
Telling him everything now will only hurt his pride.
I'm protecting my actor's psyche.
What if he misunderstands you?
He won't because he knows me well.
Jo Tae Young. You, again!
It's you again! What a great timing. You little...
Gosh! For goodness' sake.
Hello?
Hello, Mr. Lee. What brings you here?
Oh, hello. I came to meet with Ms. Jo.
You're here, too. Ms. Cho.
Hello. I'm here for the same reason.
I'm also here to see Ms. Jo.
What brings you here?
Oh, I'm here to speak with Ms. Jo.
I clearly told you that I'd like to see you and Young Bin both,
yet you came alone.
He's not in Seoul at the moment.
He went away to clear his head. You can just tell me,
as you always do.
I heard that you're looking for another film.
Oh, well... Have you found an actor for the role in "War Terminator"?
No.
At the moment, we can't find anyone who can replace Young Bin.
Mr. Lee is furious as well.
All in all, it's a pretty bad situation.
It must be stressful.
By the way, why are all of you here?
Are you in a club together?
Is it a quilting club? Or a craft beer club?
I'll explain.
Please. I'm very curious.
You...
stopped us from casting Kang Ha Neul for our movie.
I did.
Do you remember it? You, the CEO of...
So Hee's company, and Mr. Kim pressured me...
to exclude Kang Ha Neul.
- We did. - It's the same situation.
What do you want me to do? I'm smart,
but I don't understand what you want me to do.
Make Young Bin do "War Terminator".
It's already over.
Is it over? I never agreed.
To tell you the truth, I'm extremely angry at Young Bin.
I don't want to work with him ever again.
Considering the situation, he should be responsible.
Considering the situation, use a mediocre actor.
He doesn't want to do it. You can't force him.
I can't? Let me explain why these busy people are here.
Mr. Lee is the director of Film Producers' Association.
The association will punish Young Bin.
The member companies will not work with Young Bin.
They'll punish him? They won't work with him?
Please confirm it, Mr. Lee.
What she said is right.
Next, my co-investors won't...
invest in any movies Young Bin will star in.
- Right, Mr. Kim? - Well...
It's my company's decision, not mine.
Ms. Cho, are you going to write Young Bin is dropping out?
I might.
To be precise, it'll be a piece on a scandal.
Regarding why he suddenly dropped out of the movie,
she'll write only about the facts.
You know,
the scandal will expand itself.
I don't think you'll be able to handle it...
once the snowball starts to roll.
I'll do my best to ruin Young Bin's future.
You gave me a problem. I should give you one as well.
Take it.
Once in middle school, I was attacked by four boys.
Those punks tried to take money from me.
I insisted,
and I got beaten up.
Back then, I swore a lot.
I'd love to swear now.
Sign it and swear as much as you want.
Have you been with Seung Hyo all day?
What did you do, the three of you?
Nothing much.
We just had a little conversation.
Well...
We had some deep conversation.
Why are you suddenly working out?
We shouldn't be too lazy.
I skipped my workouts a few times, and I lost some muscles.
Joon is understandable, but I've never seen Turtle work out.
I think I should start now.
My hips look okay, but my shoulders are a bit narrow.
I want to build up my shoulders.
Joon, stop it. You'll never have hips like mine anyway.
That's ridiculous. Despite you working out,
you'll never get gangster shoulders like mine.
Gangster shoulders?
You look like you got beaten up by gangsters.
- Who could it be? - Could it be Seung Hyo?
Gosh.
- Seung Hyo. - Young Bin!
Is he here?
- Who are you? - Is Young Bin here?
- Is he here? - No, he isn't.
I think this is the place.
- This must be the place. - He should be here.
- Listen. - Excuse me.
- There's a bug! - Where?
It's a wasp!
Young Bin!
Open the door!
- Young Bin! - Young Bin!
Young Bin!
Are you in there?
I think he's here.
Why did you upload pictures?
Young Bin.
Ferguson was right. Social media is a waste of time.
I didn't upload anything.
Then how did they find us?
Is someone speaking Chinese?
I'm not on Weibo.
Then how did they come here?
I guess we won't be allowed any peace and quiet.
We're going back to Seoul tomorrow anyway.
Already?
Reporters will give you a hard time when you're back.
- What can I do? - Young Bin.
I should find a new movie soon.
I'm in debt.
Talk it through with Mr. Kim.
I can't stand being in between you two any longer.
Speak of the devil.
- Hello, Mr. Kim. - Are you with Young Bin?
Yes.
Can I talk to him? It's an important matter.
Hi, Eun Gab.
I haven't heard from you in a while.
Are you in Jeju Island? Are you having a good time?
Kind of.
What's the matter?
Well...
Things are not going well.
- Sorry? - I think...
we should do "War Terminator".
Give me a second. What are you talking about?
I'll explain in person. We just have to do it.
- Speaking of which... - Eun Gab.
I'll pay the penalty,
and I'll appear in their movies for free.
I'll apologize to them in person, too.
I'll be back in Seoul tomorrow. Let's talk again then.
Don't talk about "War Terminator" again. Bye.
Hey.
Is he not going to do it?
- Joy. - Yes.
Take me to the airport.
Yes, Boss.
I thought everything was settled. What's going on?
My head is splitting.
Should we go back tonight?
- Should we? - What about the fans outside?
(SEUNG HYO)
I have to go somewhere.
Me, too.
Why?
Seung Hyo had an accident. She needs some money.
She asked me to send some to her account.
I got the same message.
So suddenly? It doesn't feel right.
She's just borrowing it.
Her health means more than money to me.
She must be so shocked now. I have to go.
Me, too.
Stop saying, "Me, too."
Be careful.
Is she hurt?
Did you send money? You don't have any money.
I sent her all the money I had.
If it's for Seung Hyo, I'm okay.
Seung Hyo, what are you?
What do you mean?
- You know Seong Hun, right? - Yes, I do.
- I heard everything from him. - What did you hear?
Are you really a writer?
Why do you care if I'm a writer?
Why does everyone say different things?
Did you see it yourself?
Why are you doing this to me? We need to talk.
- We don't need to talk. - We need to talk.
Stop bugging me, you jerk.
What's going on?
- Hurry. - Come here.
Have you met Seung Hyo?
What are you doing with her?
Seung Hyo... That's not even her real name.
That woman is...
She's scary.
- What are you talking about? - She has no job,
and she lies about her education and family.
She introduces herself as a photographer, but that's a lie.
She sometimes introduces herself as a writer or a manager.
Are you sure?
I mean...
Is that true?
She deceived so many people.
She meets people at film festivals and lies to them.
Why would she do that?
You know those people. Saying she knows celebrities,
she wants to attract people's attention.
She uploads pictures on social media, too.
She uploaded pictures of you on her page...
including where you're staying.
She's a sociopath.
She's so good at lying.
You haven't lent her money or anything, right?
No, we haven't.
No,
we haven't.
Do you think...
he's right?
I guess.
This is exactly what we talked about.
I really liked her.
She seemed like she has so many stories.
I wanted to protect her.
She does have many stories. Scary and cruel stories.
Guys.
Why are you so startled?
No, we aren't.
- What's the matter? - Did he talk to you?
Don't you trust me?
What are you talking about?
He's my stalker.
He's obsessed with me.
He talks behind my back.
I'm not a liar.
This is crazy.
What should I do in a situation like this?
In a situation like this,
go to the police.
Talk to the police.
We don't know these things.
Please don't talk about me anywhere.
I hate rumors.
Of course.
By the way,
how should I pay you back?
I'm okay,
but he gave you all his money.
You can have all my money.
Use it.
- Thank you. - Get off me!
I'm sorry.
See you again. I'll call you.
Don't call me.
- Turtle. - Yes?
You don't trust her, do you?
I'm so scared I can't move my body.
By the way,
let's not tell anyone about this.
It'd be so embarrassing.
We have to take this to our graves.
Joon, let's go for a drink.
You don't have any money.
That woman has my money. Should I borrow 50 dollars?
Young Bin.
- You're here. - Eun Gab.
Let me come in.
Lock the door.
Why didn't Cup Noodles answer my calls?
He's picking up the other guys. How did you come here?
I climbed over the walls in the rain.
It tastes just right.
This is the first time you've ever made ramyeon for me.
Is it?
Is it okay to have ramyeon at this hour?
I quit my diet.
I've been feeling so weak.
Maybe we should have gone out for a drink.
- We have some here. - You do? Bring some beer.
Do you even drink now?
Yes, I do.
Thanks.
It's been forever.
Have you tried any famous restaurants here?
No. We've been just staying around here.
You loved that jjamppong you had when you just debuted.
- Why didn't you go there? - I thought it'd be crowded.
Back then, everything tasted good because we were having a hard time.
You're right.
Let's drink.
Eat some food.
I already ate.
Do you still have hard feelings towards me?
Are you angry?
I do understand your situation.
Still, I did get angry.
You didn't ask for my opinion. You treat me like a child.
You're a child to me.
Since you came to me to become an actor,
I've thought of you as my child.
I never say this because it's too cheesy.
I know.
What kind of parents would try to harm their children?
Everything I do is for your sake. Do you know that?
What are you trying to say?
I signed the "War Terminator" contract...
for you.
- Sorry? - Ms. Jo said...
she'd bury you if the contract isn't signed today.
- So I signed it. - Without asking me?
I was going to on the phone, but you'd refuse.
You didn't know about the situation because you were away.
I didn't share everything with you because I didn't want to worry you.
Now, you have to know.
The situation is not good. It's very bad.
What I mean is,
if you just do "War Terminator", everything will work out.
- After that... - Eun Gab.
Give me a second.
I'll explain everything. Ask me anything.
- Hey. - Be careful.
Young Bin.
Why did you drink so much?
Look at him. He peed on himself.
Joon doesn't stop crying.
- Are you okay? - He cried all the way here.
He keeps crying without saying anything.
Stop crying.
Gosh.
Look at you.
- Ho Jin. - What?
Thank you, you ugly brat.
That's you. Just go to bed.
That's you
You smell terrible. Go to bed.
Hey.
Joon, I understand you.
Be careful.
My goodness.
They were babbling about Seung Hyo.
What is it that you want to say?
Have the fans left?
Yes. No one is here now.
Right. I missed Mr. Kim's calls.
He didn't pick up when I called back. Did he call you?
He was here.
- Was he here? - Yes.
- Is he still here? - No. He left.
Let's find a company when we get back to Seoul.
What are you talking about?
Are you drunk, too?
I'm leaving Eun Gab.
What?
(CUP NOODLES)
(NEXT EPISODE PREVIEW)
His face is too erotic.
It's not that I'm feeling anything.
The bulletin board has become a mess.
There are pictures of you sleeping in the car.
Do you gamble?
Your ears and jaw are...
If you join our company, you can use it as much as you want.
There are even bedrooms.
He's the opposite of Mr. Kim.
Let's just sign it.
I'll eat you all up.
Swearing gave me energy.
I want to go back.
Are you crying?
Have you thought about my offer?
Why them of all companies?
