Don't look.
You're Dokgo Jin.
Don't look.
Go.
Go. Don't look.
CURRY
I wonder if she talked about her album
with Dokgo Jin.
Why would she do that?
Remember that actor she dated
a long time ago?
Don't you know that turned into
a rumor about how she used him
to become an actress?
That's not going to happen.
Dokgo Jin has feelings for her.
That guy had feelings for her, too.
Plus, she can't date Dokgo Jin.
He's dating Kang Se-ri.
-He's going to break up with her.
-That guy said the same thing.
He said he ended things,
but then he stabbed Ae-jeong in the back.
He made it seem like Ae-jeong
stole someone else's boyfriend.
Maybe I shouldn't have said that
to Dokgo Jin.
You should think
before you do anything, okay?
And plus, you're rooting
for the wrong guy.
Give up Jin, go for Pil-joo.
So you went to that clinic
and got all this expensive medicine
because you want her to date Pil-joo?
Don't eat that.
I'm going to return this.
I'm okay now.
The truth is, I wasn't hurt.
I was embarrassed about something.
In the entertainment industry,
I'm known to be cheap and dirty,
and I thought I was fine with it
since I know that I'm not.
But today, I felt like I really seemed
like a cheap and dirty person.
I feel so ashamed.
Didn't you say you're a national treasure
that no one can buy,
even with ten billion won?
A national treasure is precious,
not dirty.
Thank you for saying that.
I couldn't do anything when
the first national treasure got ruined,
but I promised I'd heal the national
treasure in front of me if she's hurt.
When I was a National Treasure Girl,
I was the second oldest,
so I was the second national treasure.
You were a tower, then.
Yes, I was sitting on a tower
of popularity at the time.
No, I mean a stone tower.
The second national treasure
is the Wongaksa Pagoda.
Wasn't it Dongdaemun?
That's the number one treasure.
-Oh, right.
-You should study some more.
Then what's the third national treasure?
Bukhansan Monument,
commemorating King Jinheung.
Then what about
the 128th national treasure?
That's...
I don't know.
Curry without potatoes is really horrible.
I just got fooled by a kid's toy.
I should've known better.
Is it fun to play with my feelings
because you're a top celebrity?
PRINT
Did you tell Gu Ae-jeong
that you'd help her with her album?
They talked to you about it, too?
I heard Mr. Gu was going around
saying that.
Did you two decide on something?
No!
Really?
Your guest is here.
Come in, Ms. Gu.
I invited her over for a meal.
It's okay with you, right?
There was an article about A and C
after that incident at the studio.
I should handle any uncomfortable
situations
among our agency family members.
Get your facts straight.
C isn't really a family member.
She's just a guest.
If a guest caused trouble,
the CEO shouldn't resolve it,
they should punish the guest.
Why are you saying such a thing
when she's right in front of you?
Ms. Gu isn't the kind of person
who'd get upset about such things.
She's really shameless.
Isn't that right, Ms. Gu?
Yes. I don't get upset about such things.
I just ignore crap like that.
What should we have?
Let's have something expensive.
The A Course here is okay.
Let's have that.
I don't actually want a course.
I'll just have a single menu.
Why are you refusing?
You want to get on Ms. Moon's good side
by eating something cheap, don't you?
Well, you're releasing an album,
so of course you'd want to get
on her good side.
The CEO of Coen Entertainment
is in the next room,
and he wants to see you for a minute.
I'll just go out for a minute to see him.
I was trying to see if they were dating,
but they seem to be on really bad terms.
You seem to have come here
to talk about your album with Ms. Moon.
You two can talk. I'm leaving.
You can't leave.
You need to promote my album,
and film the music video, too.
-You should discuss things with us.
-What?
You told me to ask you to do it.
What's the problem?
You're not going to do it since you
didn't get my body that you lust for?
What did you say?
You kept talking about The Camellias,
so I thought it was all pure and innocent.
But yesterday, I realized
you wanted to shoot an erotic film.
What? "An erotic film"?
Your body isn't even the quality
to be in an erotic film.
Your body is the quality
to be in my music video.
Who says I'm going to be in it?
You can't afford to not be in it.
Your mouth is an asshole,
so everything that comes out is crap,
but my mouth is a bomb, so it's
going to explode if I say anything.
-What do you think you're doing?
-What happened last night...
Would it be better for me to open
my mouth and write a novel about it,
or would it be better to sell my albums
by making you film my music video?
I made some calculations,
and both options seemed okay.
I'll give you a chance to choose.
Which would it be?
If you want to get on my good side,
you should choose the expensive choice,
not the cheap one.
He's not the only one
who can look down on me.
I can do the same to him. That jerk.
What do you think you're doing?
Are you blackmailing me into helping
with your album, or are you protesting
about your hurt feelings?
Get something out of this,
or reclaim your pride. Pick one.
Don't make me confused.
What's there to be confused about?
Think however you want.
That's the person you are anyway.
You treated me like a pathetic person
who tried to use you.
So you can be someone pathetic
who gets used by me.
Fine.
I'll become someone pathetic for you,
so use me properly.
Do it in a way so that I won't
get confused again,
Gu Ae-jeong.
Ms. Moon.
I told Ms. Gu that I'd help her
with the stuff we talked about.
Call the best music producers in Korea.
When?
Right now.
ALBUM PROPOSAL
SINGLE ALBUM
It's a proposal for the production
of your single album.
As you can see, they're the best
producers in the nation.
This team is going to work
not for Uhm Jung-hwa or Baek Ji-young,
or Lee Hyo-ri,
just you, Ms. Gu.
Jin asked for it.
If we're making an album
with a team like this,
it's going to cost a fortune.
Of course it is.
But Jin asked for it.
But even with such a great team,
the artist is Ae-jeong,
so it would be hard to earn
enough profit...
It would be.
But Jin told me it wouldn't matter.
Then, what should I do?
ALBUM CONTRACT
It's your contract.
You just have to sign this,
and your album will be made right away,
just as Jin planned.
This will show me the real reason
why you came here.
If she signs that contract,
I'll consider you all meaningless,
and execute you.
Ae-jeong, this is a huge chance for you.
Why are you hesitating?
I know it's shameless to accept the terms,
but let's just do it this time.
Get something out of this,
or reclaim your pride. Pick one.
Jin is testing me right now.
But still, the conditions
for the test are great.
We got by with just one song,
"Heartbeat", for ten years,
but we reached the limit.
If you succeed with just one new song,
you can keep doing performances
even if you leave this agency.
You can even sing at Misari. Come on.
Just think about it, okay?
ARTIST
GU AE-JEONG
GU AE-JEONG
She signed it?
Okay.
Now I know for sure why you came here.
You were meaningless.
I'm going to execute you.
Ae-jeong, you really are cruel.
Getting rid of all of these at once
could make me go into shock.
Think of this as a prison.
I'm executing you later.
Ms. Gu.
Are you ashamed about signing that?
What?
This was a battle of pride
between you and Jin, right?
If you kept your pride
and refused to sign,
you would've lost your chance
but you would've gotten Jin's heart.
I don't intend to get his heart,
and I'm not in the situation
to refuse such an opportunity.
You made a good choice.
If you'd refused to sign
and kept leading him on
by keeping your pride,
I would have kicked you out.
You have a sense of reality.
Keep it going.
She's totally like a mother-in-law.
You know, like mothers-in-law in dramas
where they give you money,
telling you to break up with their sons.
The women in those dramas
don't accept things like this.
I just accepted.
You did a good job.
Plus, Ms. Moon isn't
the only mother-in-law.
The whole nation is his mother-in-law.
If I get trampled on by the whole nation,
I'd turn into dust and disappear.
Don't worry, that won't happen.
You said he treats you
like some gold digger now, right?
-Don't ever meet him again.
-A gold digger?
Stop thinking about it.
You don't have feelings for him anyway.
Right?
Of course. I don't like him.
Gold diggers don't like anyone.
I have absolutely no feelings for him.
I feel so stuffy.
Let's go get some fresh air.
It's a lie.
You shouldn't lie!
This Pororo toy is making me so angry.
I'm going to destroy this.
I'll break it with a hammer.
Don't do that to this cute Pororo.
If I was a top celebrity too,
I'd be an innocent penguin,
not a lame gold digger.
Looking at this thing makes me so annoyed!
What's wrong with her today?
Ae-jeong!
The medicine you gave me last time
helped with the bloating.
It's a relief it was helpful.
I need to lose weight
and look pale and weak
for a personal reason.
Would eating two pills
at once be more effective?
If you overuse it, you'll get diarrhea.
And I don't think you need
to look more skinny.
You're already slim and pretty.
Do you usually tell people
that they're pretty so casually?
You're not just anyone.
You're one of
the most beautiful people in Korea.
People do say my beauty
is a national treasure.
I see. "National treasure."
You would've been
the fourth national treasure in the group.
Did Ae-jeong say that?
I was the fourth popular?
No, I meant that you were the youngest,
so the fourth...
Were you the fourth popular as well?
Why are you asking that?
I was just wondering if you know
what the fourth national treasure is.
The fourth national treasure?
The first is Namdaemun,
and the second is Dongdaemun.
And is the third Seodaemun?
I'm not sure about the fourth.
I guess your group wasn't interested
in the national treasures.
The fourth one is Godal Temple in Yeoju.
You must be really interested
in the national treasures.
I recently got interested,
so I'm thinking of studying about it.
Studying something you're interested in
from a distance
is boring, isn't it?
I'm going to
announce that Jin and I
are officially over.
-Really?
-If I look really pale and thin,
you'll know that's the reason.
Over here, Mr. Kang.
Oh, hello.
One, two, three.
I only ate three, so I'll return the rest.
And I'll tell her
that my daughter is Ae-jeong.
Hello.
You asked to meet me so suddenly
so I just told you to come here.
Is that okay with you?
Yes, well... It's fine.
One of my friends opened
this restaurant recently.
We have a gathering here today.
Oh, really?
Would you like to join us?
What? Me?
No, I'm okay.
Have some,
and next time, come with Se-ri
and help promote this place.
The meat...
looks really nice.
The meat here is all top quality.
Have some, and ask Se-ri
to recommend this place
as a great restaurant.
But actually, my daughter is...
She's actually...
Yes?
She's actually a huge meat lover.
If I come here with Se-ri next time,
she'll really love it.
This is really delicious.
Who can go and find it
The noodles that can't walk for long
Ae-jeong.
We came here to cheer you up
and congratulate you.
Why are you still looking so down?
I'm just a bit dazed, that's all.
Have fun, don't worry about me.
Hey, Jenny! Come over here, come on!
-Chicken soup
-Chicken soup
-Chicken soup
-Chicken soup
-Trust his firm legs
-Trust his firm legs
-Trust his rough skin
-Trust his rough skin
-Chicken soup
-Chicken soup
Why did you drink so much water?
You must be feeling down
because of Ae-jeong.
Instead of this...
Here, drink this.
Jae-seok.
A manager could be clueless
about some stuff.
They could have a big mouth.
It's okay. They're people, after all.
But...
I won't let my manager be like that.
Okay.
I'll go, then.
Hey, Jenny.
I'm at Jin's house.
I'll be there right away.
Is it okay not to bring anything
when you're celebrating?
Okay, I'll buy a cake
and go to the karaoke room.
-All right.
-A karaoke room?
Jae-seok.
Are you going to buy a cake
and go to a karaoke room to celebrate?
Yes.
And the one who's getting congratulated
-is Ae-jeong?
-Yes.
Well, it's to congratulate her
for releasing her album.
Did Ae-jeong hold that party?
No.
Jenny started it to cheer her up
since she was looking down.
I guess she does have a conscience,
since she's looking down.
-Cheers!
-Cheers!
Ae-jeong, don't sit there like that.
Cheer up a little.
I'm not in the mood, Jenny.
Hey, just think about the good stuff.
Go, Ae-jeong!
Go!
Come on, Ae-jeong!
Hurry up.
Gross, it's gum!
Gosh. Hey, there's a fly.
It's a fly. Gosh!
A fly?
What's with this fly?
What do I do with this, Jenny?
Oh, no.
What should I do? Ae-hwan!
Get rid of this!
Jin!
Try to get a perfect score next time!
You seem really excited, Ae-jeong.
What brings you here?
I came to congratulate her.
Congratulations.
Good luck to you.
-Since you're here...
-Okay, fine.
What are you doing? Sing.
Sing something upbeat.
I don't fall behind wherever I am
I'm still useful, I haven't died yet
My body was ruined because of you
Broken dreams, missing heart
I can risk myself if it's for you
I will race to where you are
But you still say goodbye to me
Goodbye
You say you hate me
What is the reason?
Your confident expression shows it all
And it saddens me
But even if I say I still like you
Even if I ask for a chance
You turn your back on me
I hate that cold look you give me
What did I do wrong?
I'm going to leave you
I really am
Let's see how well you'll do
I'm really sick of this
It's so unsteady
My tragic love
My heart almost broke for real.
Jin.
Are you okay?
Yes, I'm fine.
Anyhow, I'm really grateful.
Well, I do deserve your gratitude.
Yes. Thank you so much.
Hey, Ae-jeong.
Let's talk for a minute.
Since you signed that contract,
I'm going to believe that the potatoes
you brought were for your album.
Are you okay with that?
Think however you want.
Right. I was harsh to you that day.
You were right to get angry.
If you tell me now that you came
that day not just for the album,
but to make me curry as well,
I'll understand you.
There's no need.
Are you really going to make me
someone pathetic who gets used?
You're not pathetic.
You're someone I'm grateful for.
I just feel grateful.
If you're really that grateful,
give me just one minute of your time.
What are you doing?
If your heart rate doesn't go over
the safety zone of 60 to 90,
I'll just be a person you're grateful for.
What?
Don't do this.
Just let me use you and leave.
If I want to earn a living,
I shouldn't have feelings
for someone like you.
Just leave me alone so I can live
in the 60 to 90 safety zone.
Okay, I won't look. Give that back.
Just take this.
-This is...
-Yes.
It's that doctor's pen.
I found it.
You found this?
I found that pen
that got lost in the ball pool.
But you even lied to that doctor
that you found it to win his favor.
That's why I was angry at you.
You get why I did that, don't you?
Why?
Are you embarrassed that I found out
that you lied?
But I'll still understand,
since I know what your situation is like.
It's amazing how someone like you
made a fool of me.
Don't go around telling people.
Or else I'll sue you.
In the cake box...
Never mind.
What's this?
Isn't this the shoe you lost
in that ball pool?
It is.
And...
This is Pil-joo's pen.
But you already found it
and gave it back to him.
Hi, Ae-jeong.
Did Mr. Yun buy another pen
and give it to her
so she wouldn't feel so bad
about losing it?
I knew he was the right guy.
He's so considerate.
But I think Ae-jeong is feeling really
confused because of his consideration.
It's totally over between her and Jin.
Look at how he treated her.
He totally looked down on her.
He has an awful personality.
He might have a bad personality,
but he actually gave Ae-jeong
a lot of help.
If you think about it,
he was pretty considerate toward her.
If he's going to be nice to her,
he should keep being nice.
If he's going to be mean,
he should keep being mean.
Going back and forth is worse.
He's such a bad boy.
Jin has a terrible personality,
and Mr. Yun is really considerate.
But women always go for the bad guy
instead of the nice guy.
That's the cause of all this.
I'm not like that.
I like men who are really sweet to me
and do everything for me.
-Jenny.
-Jenny.
You should just pick one.
I want to have both.
-She's a bad girl.
-She's a bad girl.
It seemed like you were feeling bad
about losing this pen,
so I made you think they found it.
I'm sorry.
You did it for me.
And you said it was
a precious gift from your father.
It's a relief you got the real pen.
I really did something useless.
I think I just made you
more uncomfortable.
I don't feel uncomfortable, I just...
feel frustrated.
There was a misunderstanding.
It keeps bothering me.
If I caused a misunderstanding,
it should be cleared up.
I can explain things myself if needed.
No, it's fine.
It doesn't need to be cleared up.
I don't think it can be.
How can I clear that up now?
I already accepted the offer
and I can't undo it.
Since it is a done deal,
the only thing I can do
is help him snap out of it.
Even after seeing that,
I guess she still won't make excuses
or explain what happened.
I don't have any feelings for you.
I'm never ever going to like you.
You're so evil and selfish,
your first love at that age
will never come true.
No matter how much I bully, hold,
or try to test her feelings for me,
there's only one answer.
I have to admit it. My love...
is an embarrassing one-sided love.
You're sprouting.
Potato sprouts are poisonous.
I should remove it.
Jin, I didn't lie to you.
I was about to take back what I said about
never ever liking you.
I look great. Perfect.
I have to look better than ever
if I don't want to look like
the pathetic guy who's suffering
from unrequited love.
You didn't forget today's schedule, right?
We're having lunch
with the president of MBS,
and we're going to discuss productions
for a Dokgo Jin special.
I'm going to refuse
if it's going to be shorter
than the Kim Myung-min special.
Whether you're poisonous or not,
it sprouted,
so I'll keep taking care of it.
I know Challenge, I Can Do It
makes you do all kinds of things,
But doing a frog leap race is a bit much.
It's better than a flying race as eagles.
Ae-jeong, we're releasing
a high-quality album soon.
Shouldn't we be more careful
about choosing shows to appear in
for your image?
I'm going to discuss that album
over again with Ms. Moon.
What?
Are you going to say you won't do it?
We need to talk about adjusting
the production costs.
I shouldn't just waste away
other people's money.
You're right.
It is a bit unrealistic to make an album
like some top singer.
Let's live with a sense of reality.
I should focus on
this frog leap competition for now.
Right. I saw some
positive comments about you
posted on the website recently.
Really?
I guess I'm gaining more fans.
Of course.
They said you can participate
in the personal items auction.
-Really?
-Yes.
I said you'll donate these.
That's okay, right?
You're going to give them these?
You said you weren't going to wear
these anymore, didn't you?
Should I take these back?
No, it's a good idea.
It'll give me some closure.
The documentary special on Dokgo Jin
will be made in collaboration
with Japan's NHK.
We would like the documentary
to be different
from the former celebrity specials.
Of course.
We're thinking of having it
shown in prime time.
It's Dokgo Jin we're talking about.
We should put in our best efforts.
-Come on, we're late.
-Ae-hwan, this is so embarrassing.
It's fine, it's really funny.
-Ae-hwan.
-What is it?
It's going to be hard to
go to the bathroom with this on.
I should have gone
to the bathroom earlier.
Then go before we begin.
And I gave your sneakers
to the Couple Making team.
-You already gave it to them?
-Yes.
I'll head to the studio first,
so hurry up, okay?
Okay.
That's the sneaker Jin found for me.
Should I get it back? I can just keep it.
There's nothing wrong with keeping it.
I should go get them.
The Dokgo Jin special...
Oh, my gosh!
Oh, this is Gu Ae-jeong,
she's in our agency, too.
Hello.
She's really funny.
Ms. Gu, good luck!
As I was saying...
Are you doing a sexy dance
in that frog costume today?
No, I'm doing jumps on the field
since I'm a frog.
Can you jump with that fat belly?
But I'm a human,
so I need a handicap
to compete with a frog.
It's pretty hot outside.
You're going to get exhausted.
He's the president of MBS.
You should go.
All right, Ae-jeong the frog.
Do your best.
He should just yell at me.
Why is he being so nice?
He's going to drive me crazy.
I should just leave those sneakers.
If I have them, I'm going to want
to wear them.
And if I'm wearing them,
I'll want to run to him.
I shouldn't have any lingering feelings.
You wanted to meet me in person.
I guess you got sick of just studying.
I have something I want to ask you.
I don't know much about this industry.
What do you want to know?
What exactly is the relationship
between you and Dokgo Jin?
Officially, we're still dating.
You told me last time that
you're going to reveal your breakup.
Are you two over now?
The way celebrities break up
is different from other people's.
Normally, when two people break up,
it's just their relationship that ends.
But for us,
there are many things at stake.
Even if our relationship is over,
we have to be careful not to damage
each other's images,
and we have to take care of
all kinds of contracts involved.
All those things have to be taken care of
to say that we're completely over.
Then if people find out that
there's someone involved between you,
that person would get severely hurt.
That's why we have to be very careful.
But why are you curious about that?
I'm worried about someone getting hurt.
Hello.
I saw you when you were
doing that event for Se-ri.
I'm the assistant writer
for Couple Making.
Oh, right.
-What is all that?
-Oh, this?
We're holding a charity auction
on our website.
The guests on our show donated
personal items for the auction.
There's a bag Se-ri donated, too.
I see.
I'll be going, then.
-Good luck.
-Okay.
I found that shoe for her,
and she just gave it to them.
Mr. Yun.
-Hello.
-Hello.
Are you here to see Mr. Kim?
He's in the editing room right now.
-This is Ae-jeong's.
-Yes.
Give that to me.
It's better for me to take that.
I'm letting you take that.
Be careful with it.
Anyone could try to take it
if you drop it like that.
Let me take that for you.
I'm not "anyone," right?
PERSONAL ITEMS AUCTION
GU AE-JEONG'S SNEAKERS
Ae-jeong's sneakers are on the website.
"I'm not 'anyone,' right?"
That's what he said,
so he'll probably buy this
to show that he's not just "anyone."
PERSONAL ITEMS AUCTION
GU AE-JEONG'S SNEAKERS
It's 30,000 won right now.
How much do I have to bid to get it?
Where did all those
National Treasure Girls fans go?
Thirty thousand is way too low.
All those fans are my anti-fans
or Se-ri's fans now.
This won't do.
I should raise it up
to about 100 thousand.
Don't do that. That's more pathetic.
Plus, it's better for someone to take that
for 30,000 won than for it
to return to me.
Gosh.
Hey, it went up!
It's 500 thousand won!
Five hundred thousand?
I still had such a dedicated fan?
Would this be enough?
HIGHEST BID: 500 THOUSAND WON
Five hundred thousand?
If it costs 500 thousand won,
that "anyone" could get it right away.
Then they'll just be sneakers
that anyone can get.
No.
Someone special like me found it for her.
I can't let those be something
just anyone can get easily.
I should raise the cost a bit.
PLACE BID: 1 MILLION WON
HIGHEST BID: 1 MILLION WON
One million won?
It rose so suddenly.
Could it be Ae-jeong's fan?
Be careful with it.
Anyone could try to take it
if you drop it like that.
Could it be him?
What?
Two million won?
What am I doing with this guy?
Forget it. I'm Dokgo Jin.
Getting involved will just
make me more pathetic.
You paid two million won for my sneakers?
Yes, I'm not just anyone to you, right?
No, you are "anyone."
Three million won!
All right, then.
Mr. Anyone, try wasting
all your money on this.
I guess he doesn't want me to take it.
Then...
I should take it.
PLACE BID: 4 MILLION WON
Ms. Han! There's something strange
on the website.
What is it?
-What about this?
-All right.
Let's do it.
Until a moment ago,
Ae-jeong's sneakers were only
30 thousand won,
but it suddenly went up
to four million won.
Five million...
Mr. Kim! Come over here, come on!
Come look at this!
Ae-jeong's sneakers
went up to five million won.
Six million.
Six million won?
All right, then I'll bid seven million.
Eight million, then.
Eight million. That's a lot.
Then I'll...
attack with nine million won!
Nine million?
-Is this for real?
-Isn't time almost over?
It's almost time to end.
PLACE BID
Dr. Yun, there's an atopy patient.
Please wait over there.
Please have a seat and wait.
PLACE BID: 10 MILLION WON
Please be seated for a minute.
DIRECTOR YUN PIL-JOO
Sorry, it's something urgent.
Could I use this?
Sure.
Time's up.
SOLD
It's sold.
Ae-jeong's sneakers
got sold for 10 million won?
Look at this. Your sneakers
sold for 10 million won.
Wow, you're right.
This is crazy.
Who would buy sneakers for 10 million won?
Ten million?
Maybe something went wrong.
GU AE-JEONG'S SNEAKERS
10 MILLION WON
SOLD
I've won.
The special Dokgo Jin won
against Dr. Anyone.
Wait a minute. 10 million won?
Why did you just do that?
Please. It's my fault.
He took it.
He got it.
GU AE-JEONG'S SNEAKERS
10 MILLION WON
Even if I got these sneakers,
I can't give them back to Gu Ae-jeong.
Don't you think it's Dokgo Jin.
I think it's him.
But there's another person
who was raising the price with that guy.
Who would that be?
It's probably one of her fans.
Or someone could've been
doing that as a joke.
PERSONAL ITEMS AUCTION
Who is the one who got
Ae-jeong's sneakers?
It was a man in his mid-20s.
But there's a bigger problem right now.
-What?
-I'm the only one who knows this.
The other guy who was raising the bid
was Yun Pil-joo.
Yun Pil-joo?
Yes. He used his own ID on the website
to bid in the auction.
He was totally bent on buying
those sneakers.
He raised the price to eight million won.
It must have been a prank.
Is he the type to play pranks like that?
He even tells jokes seriously.
So the National Treasure Girl
he was interested in
was Ae-jeong?
I got pushed aside by Ae-jeong?
That's ridiculous.
Ms. Kang.
Hello, Mr. Kim.
The celebrity personal items auction
you did is quite a hot topic.
It's just a few people talking about it
on the website.
But everyone is curious about who paid
ten million won to buy
Gu Ae-jeong's sneakers.
Do you know who it is?
It's personal information.
We can't reveal that.
I don't need details.
Please just tell me if it's a fan of hers
or a fan of the show, things like that.
The truth is, the production crew
doesn't know, either.
Anyone can use any kind of ID
on the internet, you know.
Someone could have used ten million won
to make news about Ae-jeong go viral.
She could've done it herself as a joke.
Herself?
Anyway, Ae-jeong really wanted
some attention,
and it's great that she's getting
that for a positive incident.
It feels like Jin could have done it.
But he hasn't said anything to me.
That's weird.
Ae-jeong!
There's a weird article posted online.
-What?
-Well,
about how your sneakers
got sold for ten million won...
The article's saying that you did it
yourself to make yourself a hot topic.
What do you mean? That's ridiculous!
GU AE-JEONG SUSPECTED OF BIDDING
ON HER OWN ITEM
You didn't do it, did you?
I didn't. I don't have that much money.
If that person who bought the sneakers
doesn't reveal himself,
you're going to be in quite a tight spot.
We have a shooting tomorrow.
It'll get swarmed with reporters.
This is a pain in my neck.
I'm sorry. I really am.
Ae-jeong doesn't have the money
to do such a stupid thing.
You used my ID to get it,
so should I go say something?
Saying a manager in the same agency
bought them for ten million won
is the same as admitting
to the suspicions.
I guess you're right.
There will be tons of reporters at the
Couple Making shooting site tomorrow.
If the truth doesn't get revealed,
people will just assume
that the suspicions are true.
Don't worry too much.
The production team knows that
I didn't do the bidding myself.
So there's no reason
I'd get kicked off the show.
She's right.
They're just rumors with no evidence
of you doing it.
Rumors are the worst.
Right. You never did such a thing.
Just tell everyone it's not true.
All those stupid rumors
will go away soon.
Auntie, what's a "sponsor"?
Hey! I told you not to look
at the computer.
People are saying that she bought
the sneakers using her sponsor's money.
Why are they calling you a "slut"?
Hyeong-gyu, don't read stuff
like that on the internet.
I told you that it's all a lie.
Dad said your sneakers would be
at Jin's house.
Should I go find them?
No. You shouldn't go to him, okay?
And don't tell anyone about this.
And Hyeong-gyu. Like I told you before,
don't ever tell your friends
that Gu Ae-jeong is your aunt.
And also, don't use words like "slut."
You shouldn't say that word, okay?
Isn't Ae-jeong saying anything?
She'll give some sort of explanation.
Did anyone hear anything?
-What would she say?
-Well...
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry about this.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry for all the reporters out there.
You should do something about
the reporters before we start shooting.
DRESSING ROOM
All this happened for doing
an online event on our website.
I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.
I'm sorry, Mr. Jang.
Sorry, Ru-mi.
Does this even make sense?
This was a charity event.
She should take responsibility
for causing this.
She didn't really bid on it herself, so
I can't tell her to take responsibility.
In other variety shows,
if someone is in a scandal, they
get kicked out of the show right away.
Why can't we do that?
Let's discuss it after we see
how the reporters react today.
Please give us an explanation.
-Gu Ae-jeong is coming out!
-She's coming out.
-Tell us what happened.
-Gu Ae-jeong!
What do you have to say
about the suspicions?
-Please give us a comment.
-Please tell us something.
-What happened?
-Tell us the truth.
-Give us a comment.
-Just one comment.
-What really happened?
-If it's not you, who did it?
I'm sorry.
Ms. Gu, did you really
do the bidding yourself?
Did you really buy your own item
for ten million won?
Ms. Gu, was it really you?
Ms. Gu, did you really bid
on your own item?
Did you pay ten million won
on your own item
-to get attention from the public?
-It is you, right?
Why did you do it?
-Whose ID did you use?
-Where are the sneakers?
Are you keeping them for yourself?
I don't know what's going on.
-We'll talk when my manager comes.
-Who do you think it was?
Sorry.
-Please give us a comment!
-Please give us a comment!
It's her shoe!
-It's her shoe.
-Take a photo!
-Her shoe.
-Do you have anything to say?
I don't know anything about what happened.
Please give an explanation.
Mr. Yun.
If you get involved, you'll just put her
in a tighter spot.
You don't know much about this industry.
Just stay here.
-Tell us something.
-Give us a comment.
-I really don't know.
-Tell us about what happened.
Give us an explanation.
Give us a comment.
-Tell us about what happened.
-Say something.
Are you saying it wasn't you?
Come on, tell us.
Give us an explanation.
Please.
-They're here.
-Tell us what happened.
-Please explain.
-It's Dokgo Jin.
I have Ae-jeong's sneakers right here.
Hey, take a photo.
The one who bought Ae-jeong's shoes
is me, Dokgo Jin.
This is surprising.
Take photos!
I can't believe it.
He put on her shoes for her.
Aren't you afraid
of getting a bad reputation
for being involved with me?
Don’t be concerned about
what I do with my business.
Does Ae-jeong have some sort
of leverage on you?
Yes, an extremely big one.
Do I really have to eliminate Ae-jeong?
The way to protect Gu Ae-jeong
is to help her go through another week.
You may think
you were protecting Ae-jeong,
but I think you just made it
harder and more confusing.
I like you.
"When you are disgusted
to see me and leave..."
Did he ever listen to this song...
Subtitle translation by Ju-young Park
---
Don't look.
You're Dokgo Jin.
Don't look.
Go.
Go. Don't look.
CURRY
I wonder if she talked about her album
with Dokgo Jin.
Why would she do that?
Remember that actor she dated
a long time ago?
Don't you know that turned into
a rumor about how she used him
to become an actress?
That's not going to happen.
Dokgo Jin has feelings for her.
That guy had feelings for her, too.
Plus, she can't date Dokgo Jin.
He's dating Kang Se-ri.
-He's going to break up with her.
-That guy said the same thing.
He said he ended things,
but then he stabbed Ae-jeong in the back.
He made it seem like Ae-jeong
stole someone else's boyfriend.
Maybe I shouldn't have said that
to Dokgo Jin.
You should think
before you do anything, okay?
And plus, you're rooting
for the wrong guy.
Give up Jin, go for Pil-joo.
So you went to that clinic
and got all this expensive medicine
because you want her to date Pil-joo?
Don't eat that.
I'm going to return this.
I'm okay now.
The truth is, I wasn't hurt.
I was embarrassed about something.
In the entertainment industry,
I'm known to be cheap and dirty,
and I thought I was fine with it
since I know that I'm not.
But today, I felt like I really seemed
like a cheap and dirty person.
I feel so ashamed.
Didn't you say you're a national treasure
that no one can buy,
even with ten billion won?
A national treasure is precious,
not dirty.
Thank you for saying that.
I couldn't do anything when
the first national treasure got ruined,
but I promised I'd heal the national
treasure in front of me if she's hurt.
When I was a National Treasure Girl,
I was the second oldest,
so I was the second national treasure.
You were a tower, then.
Yes, I was sitting on a tower
of popularity at the time.
No, I mean a stone tower.
The second national treasure
is the Wongaksa Pagoda.
Wasn't it Dongdaemun?
That's the number one treasure.
-Oh, right.
-You should study some more.
Then what's the third national treasure?
Bukhansan Monument,
commemorating King Jinheung.
Then what about
the 128th national treasure?
That's...
I don't know.
Curry without potatoes is really horrible.
I just got fooled by a kid's toy.
I should've known better.
Is it fun to play with my feelings
because you're a top celebrity?
Did you tell Gu Ae-jeong
that you'd help her with her album?
They talked to you about it, too?
I heard Mr. Gu was going around
saying that.
Did you two decide on something?
No!
Really?
Your guest is here.
Come in, Ms. Gu.
I invited her over for a meal.
It's okay with you, right?
There was an article about A and C
after that incident at the studio.
I should handle any uncomfortable
situations
among our agency family members.
Get your facts straight.
C isn't really a family member.
She's just a guest.
If a guest caused trouble,
the CEO shouldn't resolve it,
they should punish the guest.
Why are you saying such a thing
when she's right in front of you?
Ms. Gu isn't the kind of person
who'd get upset about such things.
She's really shameless.
Isn't that right, Ms. Gu?
Yes. I don't get upset about such things.
I just ignore crap like that.
What should we have?
Let's have something expensive.
The A Course here is okay.
Let's have that.
I don't actually want a course.
I'll just have a single menu.
Why are you refusing?
You want to get on Ms. Moon's good side
by eating something cheap, don't you?
Well, you're releasing an album,
so of course you'd want to get
on her good side.
The CEO of Coen Entertainment
is in the next room,
and he wants to see you for a minute.
I'll just go out for a minute to see him.
I was trying to see if they were dating,
but they seem to be on really bad terms.
You seem to have come here
to talk about your album with Ms. Moon.
You two can talk. I'm leaving.
You can't leave.
You need to promote my album,
and film the music video, too.
-You should discuss things with us.
-What?
You told me to ask you to do it.
What's the problem?
You're not going to do it since you
didn't get my body that you lust for?
What did you say?
You kept talking about The Camellias,
so I thought it was all pure and innocent.
But yesterday, I realized
you wanted to shoot an erotic film.
What? "An erotic film"?
Your body isn't even the quality
to be in an erotic film.
Your body is the quality
to be in my music video.
Who says I'm going to be in it?
You can't afford to not be in it.
Your mouth is an asshole,
so everything that comes out is crap,
but my mouth is a bomb, so it's
going to explode if I say anything.
-What do you think you're doing?
-What happened last night...
Would it be better for me to open
my mouth and write a novel about it,
or would it be better to sell my albums
by making you film my music video?
I made some calculations,
and both options seemed okay.
I'll give you a chance to choose.
Which would it be?
If you want to get on my good side,
you should choose the expensive choice,
not the cheap one.
He's not the only one
who can look down on me.
I can do the same to him. That jerk.
What do you think you're doing?
Are you blackmailing me into helping
with your album, or are you protesting
about your hurt feelings?
Get something out of this,
or reclaim your pride. Pick one.
Don't make me confused.
What's there to be confused about?
Think however you want.
That's the person you are anyway.
You treated me like a pathetic person
who tried to use you.
So you can be someone pathetic
who gets used by me.
Fine.
I'll become someone pathetic for you,
so use me properly.
Do it in a way so that I won't
get confused again,
Gu Ae-jeong.
Ms. Moon.
I told Ms. Gu that I'd help her
with the stuff we talked about.
Call the best music producers in Korea.
When?
Right now.
ALBUM PROPOSAL
SINGLE ALBUM
It's a proposal for the production
of your single album.
As you can see, they're the best
producers in the nation.
This team is going to work
not for Uhm Jung-hwa or Baek Ji-young,
or Lee Hyo-ri,
just you, Ms. Gu.
Jin asked for it.
If we're making an album
with a team like this,
it's going to cost a fortune.
Of course it is.
But Jin asked for it.
But even with such a great team,
the artist is Ae-jeong,
so it would be hard to earn
enough profit...
It would be.
But Jin told me it wouldn't matter.
Then, what should I do?
ALBUM CONTRACT
It's your contract.
You just have to sign this,
and your album will be made right away,
just as Jin planned.
This will show me the real reason
why you came here.
If she signs that contract,
I'll consider you all meaningless,
and execute you.
Ae-jeong, this is a huge chance for you.
Why are you hesitating?
I know it's shameless to accept the terms,
but let's just do it this time.
Get something out of this,
or reclaim your pride. Pick one.
Jin is testing me right now.
But still, the conditions
for the test are great.
We got by with just one song,
"Heartbeat", for ten years,
but we reached the limit.
If you succeed with just one new song,
you can keep doing performances
even if you leave this agency.
You can even sing at Misari. Come on.
Just think about it, okay?
ARTIST
GU AE-JEONG
GU AE-JEONG
She signed it?
Okay.
Now I know for sure why you came here.
You were meaningless.
I'm going to execute you.
Ae-jeong, you really are cruel.
Getting rid of all of these at once
could make me go into shock.
Think of this as a prison.
I'm executing you later.
Ms. Gu.
Are you ashamed about signing that?
What?
This was a battle of pride
between you and Jin, right?
If you kept your pride
and refused to sign,
you would've lost your chance
but you would've gotten Jin's heart.
I don't intend to get his heart,
and I'm not in the situation
to refuse such an opportunity.
You made a good choice.
If you'd refused to sign
and kept leading him on
by keeping your pride,
I would have kicked you out.
You have a sense of reality.
Keep it going.
She's totally like a mother-in-law.
You know, like mothers-in-law in dramas
where they give you money,
telling you to break up with their sons.
The women in those dramas
don't accept things like this.
I just accepted.
You did a good job.
Plus, Ms. Moon isn't
the only mother-in-law.
The whole nation is his mother-in-law.
If I get trampled on by the whole nation,
I'd turn into dust and disappear.
Don't worry, that won't happen.
You said he treats you
like some gold digger now, right?
-Don't ever meet him again.
-A gold digger?
Stop thinking about it.
You don't have feelings for him anyway.
Right?
Of course. I don't like him.
Gold diggers don't like anyone.
I have absolutely no feelings for him.
I feel so stuffy.
Let's go get some fresh air.
It's a lie.
You shouldn't lie!
This Pororo toy is making me so angry.
I'm going to destroy this.
I'll break it with a hammer.
Don't do that to this cute Pororo.
If I was a top celebrity too,
I'd be an innocent penguin,
not a lame gold digger.
Looking at this thing makes me so annoyed!
What's wrong with her today?
Ae-jeong!
The medicine you gave me last time
helped with the bloating.
It's a relief it was helpful.
I need to lose weight
and look pale and weak
for a personal reason.
Would eating two pills
at once be more effective?
If you overuse it, you'll get diarrhea.
And I don't think you need
to look more skinny.
You're already slim and pretty.
Do you usually tell people
that they're pretty so casually?
You're not just anyone.
You're one of
the most beautiful people in Korea.
People do say my beauty
is a national treasure.
I see. "National treasure."
You would've been
the fourth national treasure in the group.
Did Ae-jeong say that?
I was the fourth popular?
No, I meant that you were the youngest,
so the fourth...
Were you the fourth popular as well?
Why are you asking that?
I was just wondering if you know
what the fourth national treasure is.
The fourth national treasure?
The first is Namdaemun,
and the second is Dongdaemun.
And is the third Seodaemun?
I'm not sure about the fourth.
I guess your group wasn't interested
in the national treasures.
The fourth one is Godal Temple in Yeoju.
You must be really interested
in the national treasures.
I recently got interested,
so I'm thinking of studying about it.
Studying something you're interested in
from a distance
is boring, isn't it?
I'm going to
announce that Jin and I
are officially over.
-Really?
-If I look really pale and thin,
you'll know that's the reason.
Over here, Mr. Kang.
Oh, hello.
One, two, three.
I only ate three, so I'll return the rest.
And I'll tell her
that my daughter is Ae-jeong.
Hello.
You asked to meet me so suddenly
so I just told you to come here.
Is that okay with you?
Yes, well... It's fine.
One of my friends opened
this restaurant recently.
We have a gathering here today.
Oh, really?
Would you like to join us?
What? Me?
No, I'm okay.
Have some,
and next time, come with Se-ri
and help promote this place.
The meat...
looks really nice.
The meat here is all top quality.
Have some, and ask Se-ri
to recommend this place
as a great restaurant.
But actually, my daughter is...
She's actually...
Yes?
She's actually a huge meat lover.
If I come here with Se-ri next time,
she'll really love it.
This is really delicious.
Who can go and find it
The noodles that can't walk for long
Ae-jeong.
We came here to cheer you up
and congratulate you.
Why are you still looking so down?
I'm just a bit dazed, that's all.
Have fun, don't worry about me.
Hey, Jenny! Come over here, come on!
-Chicken soup
-Chicken soup
-Chicken soup
-Chicken soup
-Trust his firm legs
-Trust his firm legs
-Trust his rough skin
-Trust his rough skin
-Chicken soup
-Chicken soup
Why did you drink so much water?
You must be feeling down
because of Ae-jeong.
Instead of this...
Here, drink this.
Jae-seok.
A manager could be clueless
about some stuff.
They could have a big mouth.
It's okay. They're people, after all.
But...
I won't let my manager be like that.
Okay.
I'll go, then.
Hey, Jenny.
I'm at Jin's house.
I'll be there right away.
Is it okay not to bring anything
when you're celebrating?
Okay, I'll buy a cake
and go to the karaoke room.
-All right.
-A karaoke room?
Jae-seok.
Are you going to buy a cake
and go to a karaoke room to celebrate?
Yes.
And the one who's getting congratulated
-is Ae-jeong?
-Yes.
Well, it's to congratulate her
for releasing her album.
Did Ae-jeong hold that party?
No.
Jenny started it to cheer her up
since she was looking down.
I guess she does have a conscience,
since she's looking down.
-Cheers!
-Cheers!
Ae-jeong, don't sit there like that.
Cheer up a little.
I'm not in the mood, Jenny.
Hey, just think about the good stuff.
Go, Ae-jeong!
Go!
Come on, Ae-jeong!
Hurry up.
Gross, it's gum!
Gosh. Hey, there's a fly.
It's a fly. Gosh!
A fly?
What's with this fly?
What do I do with this, Jenny?
Oh, no.
What should I do? Ae-hwan!
Get rid of this!
Jin!
Try to get a perfect score next time!
You seem really excited, Ae-jeong.
What brings you here?
I came to congratulate her.
Congratulations.
Good luck to you.
-Since you're here...
-Okay, fine.
What are you doing? Sing.
Sing something upbeat.
I don't fall behind wherever I am
I'm still useful, I haven't died yet
My body was ruined because of you
Broken dreams, missing heart
I can risk myself if it's for you
I will race to where you are
But you still say goodbye to me
Goodbye
You say you hate me
What is the reason?
Your confident expression shows it all
And it saddens me
But even if I say I still like you
Even if I ask for a chance
You turn your back on me
I hate that cold look you give me
What did I do wrong?
I'm going to leave you
I really am
Let's see how well you'll do
I'm really sick of this
It's so unsteady
My tragic love
My heart almost broke for real.
Jin.
Are you okay?
Yes, I'm fine.
Anyhow, I'm really grateful.
Well, I do deserve your gratitude.
Yes. Thank you so much.
Hey, Ae-jeong.
Let's talk for a minute.
Since you signed that contract,
I'm going to believe that the potatoes
you brought were for your album.
Are you okay with that?
Think however you want.
Right. I was harsh to you that day.
You were right to get angry.
If you tell me now that you came
that day not just for the album,
but to make me curry as well,
I'll understand you.
There's no need.
Are you really going to make me
someone pathetic who gets used?
You're not pathetic.
You're someone I'm grateful for.
I just feel grateful.
If you're really that grateful,
give me just one minute of your time.
What are you doing?
If your heart rate doesn't go over
the safety zone of 60 to 90,
I'll just be a person you're grateful for.
What?
Don't do this.
Just let me use you and leave.
If I want to earn a living,
I shouldn't have feelings
for someone like you.
Just leave me alone so I can live
in the 60 to 90 safety zone.
Okay, I won't look. Give that back.
Just take this.
-This is...
-Yes.
It's that doctor's pen.
I found it.
You found this?
I found that pen
that got lost in the ball pool.
But you even lied to that doctor
that you found it to win his favor.
That's why I was angry at you.
You get why I did that, don't you?
Why?
Are you embarrassed that I found out
that you lied?
But I'll still understand,
since I know what your situation is like.
It's amazing how someone like you
made a fool of me.
Don't go around telling people.
Or else I'll sue you.
In the cake box...
Never mind.
What's this?
Isn't this the shoe you lost
in that ball pool?
It is.
And...
This is Pil-joo's pen.
But you already found it
and gave it back to him.
Hi, Ae-jeong.
Did Mr. Yun buy another pen
and give it to her
so she wouldn't feel so bad
about losing it?
I knew he was the right guy.
He's so considerate.
But I think Ae-jeong is feeling really
confused because of his consideration.
It's totally over between her and Jin.
Look at how he treated her.
He totally looked down on her.
He has an awful personality.
He might have a bad personality,
but he actually gave Ae-jeong
a lot of help.
If you think about it,
he was pretty considerate toward her.
If he's going to be nice to her,
he should keep being nice.
If he's going to be mean,
he should keep being mean.
Going back and forth is worse.
He's such a bad boy.
Jin has a terrible personality,
and Mr. Yun is really considerate.
But women always go for the bad guy
instead of the nice guy.
That's the cause of all this.
I'm not like that.
I like men who are really sweet to me
and do everything for me.
-Jenny.
-Jenny.
You should just pick one.
I want to have both.
-She's a bad girl.
-She's a bad girl.
It seemed like you were feeling bad
about losing this pen,
so I made you think they found it.
I'm sorry.
You did it for me.
And you said it was
a precious gift from your father.
It's a relief you got the real pen.
I really did something useless.
I think I just made you
more uncomfortable.
I don't feel uncomfortable, I just...
feel frustrated.
There was a misunderstanding.
It keeps bothering me.
If I caused a misunderstanding,
it should be cleared up.
I can explain things myself if needed.
No, it's fine.
It doesn't need to be cleared up.
I don't think it can be.
How can I clear that up now?
I already accepted the offer
and I can't undo it.
Since it is a done deal,
the only thing I can do
is help him snap out of it.
Even after seeing that,
I guess she still won't make excuses
or explain what happened.
I don't have any feelings for you.
I'm never ever going to like you.
You're so evil and selfish,
your first love at that age
will never come true.
No matter how much I bully, hold,
or try to test her feelings for me,
there's only one answer.
I have to admit it. My love...
is an embarrassing one-sided love.
You're sprouting.
Potato sprouts are poisonous.
I should remove it.
Jin, I didn't lie to you.
I was about to take back what I said about
never ever liking you.
I look great. Perfect.
I have to look better than ever
if I don't want to look like
the pathetic guy who's suffering
from unrequited love.
You didn't forget today's schedule, right?
We're having lunch
with the president of MBS,
and we're going to discuss productions
for a Dokgo Jin special.
I'm going to refuse
if it's going to be shorter
than the Kim Myung-min special.
Whether you're poisonous or not,
it sprouted,
so I'll keep taking care of it.
I know Challenge, I Can Do It
makes you do all kinds of things,
But doing a frog leap race is a bit much.
It's better than a flying race as eagles.
Ae-jeong, we're releasing
a high-quality album soon.
Shouldn't we be more careful
about choosing shows to appear in
for your image?
I'm going to discuss that album
over again with Ms. Moon.
What?
Are you going to say you won't do it?
We need to talk about adjusting
the production costs.
I shouldn't just waste away
other people's money.
You're right.
It is a bit unrealistic to make an album
like some top singer.
Let's live with a sense of reality.
I should focus on
this frog leap competition for now.
Right. I saw some
positive comments about you
posted on the website recently.
Really?
I guess I'm gaining more fans.
Of course.
They said you can participate
in the personal items auction.
-Really?
-Yes.
I said you'll donate these.
That's okay, right?
You're going to give them these?
You said you weren't going to wear
these anymore, didn't you?
Should I take these back?
No, it's a good idea.
It'll give me some closure.
The documentary special on Dokgo Jin
will be made in collaboration
with Japan's NHK.
We would like the documentary
to be different
from the former celebrity specials.
Of course.
We're thinking of having it
shown in prime time.
It's Dokgo Jin we're talking about.
We should put in our best efforts.
-Come on, we're late.
-Ae-hwan, this is so embarrassing.
It's fine, it's really funny.
-Ae-hwan.
-What is it?
It's going to be hard to
go to the bathroom with this on.
I should have gone
to the bathroom earlier.
Then go before we begin.
And I gave your sneakers
to the Couple Making team.
-You already gave it to them?
-Yes.
I'll head to the studio first,
so hurry up, okay?
Okay.
That's the sneaker Jin found for me.
Should I get it back? I can just keep it.
There's nothing wrong with keeping it.
I should go get them.
The Dokgo Jin special...
Oh, my gosh!
Oh, this is Gu Ae-jeong,
she's in our agency, too.
Hello.
She's really funny.
Ms. Gu, good luck!
As I was saying...
Are you doing a sexy dance
in that frog costume today?
No, I'm doing jumps on the field
since I'm a frog.
Can you jump with that fat belly?
But I'm a human,
so I need a handicap
to compete with a frog.
It's pretty hot outside.
You're going to get exhausted.
He's the president of MBS.
You should go.
All right, Ae-jeong the frog.
Do your best.
He should just yell at me.
Why is he being so nice?
He's going to drive me crazy.
I should just leave those sneakers.
If I have them, I'm going to want
to wear them.
And if I'm wearing them,
I'll want to run to him.
I shouldn't have any lingering feelings.
You wanted to meet me in person.
I guess you got sick of just studying.
I have something I want to ask you.
I don't know much about this industry.
What do you want to know?
What exactly is the relationship
between you and Dokgo Jin?
Officially, we're still dating.
You told me last time that
you're going to reveal your breakup.
Are you two over now?
The way celebrities break up
is different from other people's.
Normally, when two people break up,
it's just their relationship that ends.
But for us,
there are many things at stake.
Even if our relationship is over,
we have to be careful not to damage
each other's images,
and we have to take care of
all kinds of contracts involved.
All those things have to be taken care of
to say that we're completely over.
Then if people find out that
there's someone involved between you,
that person would get severely hurt.
That's why we have to be very careful.
But why are you curious about that?
I'm worried about someone getting hurt.
Hello.
I saw you when you were
doing that event for Se-ri.
I'm the assistant writer
for Couple Making.
Oh, right.
-What is all that?
-Oh, this?
We're holding a charity auction
on our website.
The guests on our show donated
personal items for the auction.
There's a bag Se-ri donated, too.
I see.
I'll be going, then.
-Good luck.
-Okay.
I found that shoe for her,
and she just gave it to them.
Mr. Yun.
-Hello.
-Hello.
Are you here to see Mr. Kim?
He's in the editing room right now.
-This is Ae-jeong's.
-Yes.
Give that to me.
It's better for me to take that.
I'm letting you take that.
Be careful with it.
Anyone could try to take it
if you drop it like that.
Let me take that for you.
I'm not "anyone," right?
PERSONAL ITEMS AUCTION
GU AE-JEONG'S SNEAKERS
Ae-jeong's sneakers are on the website.
"I'm not 'anyone,' right?"
That's what he said,
so he'll probably buy this
to show that he's not just "anyone."
PERSONAL ITEMS AUCTION
GU AE-JEONG'S SNEAKERS
It's 30,000 won right now.
How much do I have to bid to get it?
Where did all those
National Treasure Girls fans go?
Thirty thousand is way too low.
All those fans are my anti-fans
or Se-ri's fans now.
This won't do.
I should raise it up
to about 100 thousand.
Don't do that. That's more pathetic.
Plus, it's better for someone to take that
for 30,000 won than for it
to return to me.
Gosh.
Hey, it went up!
It's 500 thousand won!
Five hundred thousand?
I still had such a dedicated fan?
Would this be enough?
HIGHEST BID: 500 THOUSAND WON
Five hundred thousand?
If it costs 500 thousand won,
that "anyone" could get it right away.
Then they'll just be sneakers
that anyone can get.
No.
Someone special like me found it for her.
I can't let those be something
just anyone can get easily.
I should raise the cost a bit.
PLACE BID: 1 MILLION WON
HIGHEST BID: 1 MILLION WON
One million won?
It rose so suddenly.
Could it be Ae-jeong's fan?
Be careful with it.
Anyone could try to take it
if you drop it like that.
Could it be him?
What?
Two million won?
What am I doing with this guy?
Forget it. I'm Dokgo Jin.
Getting involved will just
make me more pathetic.
You paid two million won for my sneakers?
Yes, I'm not just anyone to you, right?
No, you are "anyone."
Three million won!
All right, then.
Mr. Anyone, try wasting
all your money on this.
I guess he doesn't want me to take it.
Then...
I should take it.
PLACE BID: 4 MILLION WON
Ms. Han! There's something strange
on the website.
What is it?
-What about this?
-All right.
Let's do it.
Until a moment ago,
Ae-jeong's sneakers were only
30 thousand won,
but it suddenly went up
to four million won.
Five million...
Mr. Kim! Come over here, come on!
Come look at this!
Ae-jeong's sneakers
went up to five million won.
Six million.
Six million won?
All right, then I'll bid seven million.
Eight million, then.
Eight million. That's a lot.
Then I'll...
attack with nine million won!
Nine million?
-Is this for real?
-Isn't time almost over?
It's almost time to end.
PLACE BID
Dr. Yun, there's an atopy patient.
Please wait over there.
Please have a seat and wait.
PLACE BID: 10 MILLION WON
Please be seated for a minute.
DIRECTOR YUN PIL-JOO
Sorry, it's something urgent.
Could I use this?
Sure.
Time's up.
SOLD
It's sold.
Ae-jeong's sneakers
got sold for 10 million won?
Look at this. Your sneakers
sold for 10 million won.
Wow, you're right.
This is crazy.
Who would buy sneakers for 10 million won?
Ten million?
Maybe something went wrong.
GU AE-JEONG'S SNEAKERS
10 MILLION WON
SOLD
I've won.
The special Dokgo Jin won
against Dr. Anyone.
Wait a minute. 10 million won?
Why did you just do that?
Please. It's my fault.
He took it.
He got it.
GU AE-JEONG'S SNEAKERS
10 MILLION WON
Even if I got these sneakers,
I can't give them back to Gu Ae-jeong.
Don't you think it's Dokgo Jin.
I think it's him.
But there's another person
who was raising the price with that guy.
Who would that be?
It's probably one of her fans.
Or someone could've been
doing that as a joke.
PERSONAL ITEMS AUCTION
Who is the one who got
Ae-jeong's sneakers?
It was a man in his mid-20s.
But there's a bigger problem right now.
-What?
-I'm the only one who knows this.
The other guy who was raising the bid
was Yun Pil-joo.
Yun Pil-joo?
Yes. He used his own ID on the website
to bid in the auction.
He was totally bent on buying
those sneakers.
He raised the price to eight million won.
It must have been a prank.
Is he the type to play pranks like that?
He even tells jokes seriously.
So the National Treasure Girl
he was interested in
was Ae-jeong?
I got pushed aside by Ae-jeong?
That's ridiculous.
Ms. Kang.
Hello, Mr. Kim.
The celebrity personal items auction
you did is quite a hot topic.
It's just a few people talking about it
on the website.
But everyone is curious about who paid
ten million won to buy
Gu Ae-jeong's sneakers.
Do you know who it is?
It's personal information.
We can't reveal that.
I don't need details.
Please just tell me if it's a fan of hers
or a fan of the show, things like that.
The truth is, the production crew
doesn't know, either.
Anyone can use any kind of ID
on the internet, you know.
Someone could have used ten million won
to make news about Ae-jeong go viral.
She could've done it herself as a joke.
Herself?
Anyway, Ae-jeong really wanted
some attention,
and it's great that she's getting
that for a positive incident.
It feels like Jin could have done it.
But he hasn't said anything to me.
That's weird.
Ae-jeong!
There's a weird article posted online.
-What?
-Well,
about how your sneakers
got sold for ten million won...
The article's saying that you did it
yourself to make yourself a hot topic.
What do you mean? That's ridiculous!
GU AE-JEONG SUSPECTED OF BIDDING
ON HER OWN ITEM
You didn't do it, did you?
I didn't. I don't have that much money.
If that person who bought the sneakers
doesn't reveal himself,
you're going to be in quite a tight spot.
We have a shooting tomorrow.
It'll get swarmed with reporters.
This is a pain in my neck.
I'm sorry. I really am.
Ae-jeong doesn't have the money
to do such a stupid thing.
You used my ID to get it,
so should I go say something?
Saying a manager in the same agency
bought them for ten million won
is the same as admitting
to the suspicions.
I guess you're right.
There will be tons of reporters at the
Couple Making shooting site tomorrow.
If the truth doesn't get revealed,
people will just assume
that the suspicions are true.
Don't worry too much.
The production team knows that
I didn't do the bidding myself.
So there's no reason
I'd get kicked off the show.
She's right.
They're just rumors with no evidence
of you doing it.
Rumors are the worst.
Right. You never did such a thing.
Just tell everyone it's not true.
All those stupid rumors
will go away soon.
Auntie, what's a "sponsor"?
Hey! I told you not to look
at the computer.
People are saying that she bought
the sneakers using her sponsor's money.
Why are they calling you a "slut"?
Hyeong-gyu, don't read stuff
like that on the internet.
I told you that it's all a lie.
Dad said your sneakers would be
at Jin's house.
Should I go find them?
No. You shouldn't go to him, okay?
And don't tell anyone about this.
And Hyeong-gyu. Like I told you before,
don't ever tell your friends
that Gu Ae-jeong is your aunt.
And also, don't use words like "slut."
You shouldn't say that word, okay?
Isn't Ae-jeong saying anything?
She'll give some sort of explanation.
Did anyone hear anything?
-What would she say?
-Well...
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry about this.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry for all the reporters out there.
You should do something about
the reporters before we start shooting.
DRESSING ROOM
All this happened for doing
an online event on our website.
I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.
I'm sorry, Mr. Jang.
Sorry, Ru-mi.
Does this even make sense?
This was a charity event.
She should take responsibility
for causing this.
She didn't really bid on it herself, so
I can't tell her to take responsibility.
In other variety shows,
if someone is in a scandal, they
get kicked out of the show right away.
Why can't we do that?
Let's discuss it after we see
how the reporters react today.
Please give us an explanation.
-Gu Ae-jeong is coming out!
-She's coming out.
-Tell us what happened.
-Gu Ae-jeong!
What do you have to say
about the suspicions?
-Please give us a comment.
-Please tell us something.
-What happened?
-Tell us the truth.
-Give us a comment.
-Just one comment.
-What really happened?
-If it's not you, who did it?
I'm sorry.
Ms. Gu, did you really
do the bidding yourself?
Did you really buy your own item
for ten million won?
Ms. Gu, was it really you?
Ms. Gu, did you really bid
on your own item?
Did you pay ten million won
on your own item
-to get attention from the public?
-It is you, right?
Why did you do it?
-Whose ID did you use?
-Where are the sneakers?
Are you keeping them for yourself?
I don't know what's going on.
-We'll talk when my manager comes.
-Who do you think it was?
Sorry.
-Please give us a comment!
-Please give us a comment!
It's her shoe!
-It's her shoe.
-Take a photo!
-Her shoe.
-Do you have anything to say?
I don't know anything about what happened.
Please give an explanation.
Mr. Yun.
If you get involved, you'll just put her
in a tighter spot.
You don't know much about this industry.
Just stay here.
-Tell us something.
-Give us a comment.
-I really don't know.
-Tell us about what happened.
Give us an explanation.
Give us a comment.
-Tell us about what happened.
-Say something.
Are you saying it wasn't you?
Come on, tell us.
Give us an explanation.
Please.
-They're here.
-Tell us what happened.
-Please explain.
-It's Dokgo Jin.
I have Ae-jeong's sneakers right here.
Hey, take a photo.
The one who bought Ae-jeong's shoes
is me, Dokgo Jin.
This is surprising.
Take photos!
I can't believe it.
He put on her shoes for her.
Aren't you afraid
of getting a bad reputation
for being involved with me?
Don’t be concerned about
what I do with my business.
Does Ae-jeong have some sort
of leverage on you?
Yes, an extremely big one.
Do I really have to eliminate Ae-jeong?
The way to protect Gu Ae-jeong
is to help her go through another week.
You may think
you were protecting Ae-jeong,
but I think you just made it
harder and more confusing.
I like you.
"When you are disgusted
to see me and leave..."
Did he ever listen to this song...
