Mr. Robin kkosigi (2006) - full transcript
Korean Kim Min-june, while pondering over her recent break-up, bumps her car into American businessman Robin Heiden, who, as luck would have it, is her new boss. Unknowingly she pretends to not speak English, thinking this would be the last she would see of him. Robin Heiden has come to Korea to take over a company and she is convinced that he hates her. Between the obvious sparks, we see a bet emerge, where Min-june dares herself to seduce him and make him apologize for his behavior. Will she succeed in seducing him or will she once again get her heart broken?

Then are you planning to give up on
purchasing the remaining companies?
There's no way we can
abandon our affiliates.
And even so, this is too different
from your original proposal.
We understand.
But unfortunately, we recently got
our hands on some financial reports
for Maeda Motors and
its seven affiliated companies.
It appears the accounts for the
last two years have been heavily manipulated.
I'm sure none of you,
nor Mr. Mitsuyoshi for that matter
would want this
to become public knowledge.
I have no plans
to abandon your affiliates.
However, we'll discuss the
details further in Korea
once the final audit is complete.
Good day, gentlemen.

SEDUCING MR. PERFECT
I like the city.
I get my full share of nature
at organic restaurants.
Coffee, shopping, entertainment!
This is my beloved trinity.
If I had an overflowing mileage card,
I'd travel to all the world's cities.
And then one day,
my chance came.
My boyfriend's business trip
to Hong Kong.
So I decided to call in sick
and go along with him.
A secret rendezvous, plus
exploring the city... all in one go!
But that day...
he never showed up.
And his cell phone was switched off.
Is it possible to find a love
that won't make me lonely?
That makes me warm and happy?
And is this man
the true love I'm looking for?
Oh, damn...
How could you stop like that
all of a sudden?
What are you smirking about?
Oops... Gosh, I'm sorry.
I didn't see it.
Look, I don't have time for this,
so give me your business card.
Huh?
Your business card.
What, you don't speak English?
No! I don't speak English.
Not a word!
Then give me your phone number.
Oh, gosh... I have no
idea what you're saying.
Phone number!
Hello? Jun-hyoung?
Sorry, it's Sun-young.
How was the trip?
Trip, my ass...
I got stood up in Hong Kong.
What? That punk disappeared again?
He'll call today. It's his birthday.
Hey, is the appendix
on the right or left?
I told the company I was getting
my appendix removed.
I'll call you back.
What are you doing?
Huh?
What do you think you're doing?
Now I have your picture.
I have your phone number.
I'll call you with the bill.
Hey, look!
Erase the photo. My photo!
Hey,
I said erase the photo! Hello?
Hey asshole!
Ms. Kim, did the surgery go well?
Surgery?... Sure...
While you were at it, you should've
removed some belly fat.
Looks like you got a tire
around your waist.
Jesus!
Don't take it so hard!
I wish I had some belly fat.
I think it's cute.
Tadpole belly...
Wait, while you were gone,
there was some big news!
The new branch president flew in
from the U.S. headquarters.
Wasn't he supposed to arrive later?
And what about the director?
He was just a temporary appointment.
A fox sleeping in a tiger's cave...
Anyway, my point is,
the new guy's
specs are out of this world.
Specs?
His name's Robin Heiden, age 31.
Harvard Law School,
and of course an MBA.
He speaks 5 languages,
and is an expert in M&As.
Headquarters sees him as potential
CEO material.
Isn 't it fantastic?
That's good, Steven. OK.
This is June from the M&A team.
She will be your assistant, starting today.
Assistant?
She's been in charge of research
on the Maeda company.
June, introduce yourself.
Nice to meet you.
It's a pleasure to see you again.
I am so sorry.
I was so confused this morning, I...
If you find English difficult,
please feel free to speak Korean.
Pardon me?
Just speak in Korean!
He understands Korean quite well.
Though he finds speaking
a bit challenging.
So from now on, he'll speak English
and we will speak Korean.
Respecting each other's language
and raising our work efficiency.
Isn't his suggestion just
perfect for this global era?
By the way, Ms. June?
Yes?
It says here you took a sick leave
for an appendix removal.
Is the left side of your stomach okay?
Yes, it's fine.
That's good. By the way,
the appendix is on the right side.
You'll have to excuse me.
I have an appointment to catch.
So I will see both of you
at the party tonight.
June, you've met him before?
No, we just said hi in the elevator...
But why was I chosen?
How would I know?
He singled you out himself.
Singled me out?
And by the way...
Tonight's the party,
can you go dressed like that?
Remember tonight's the party.
Ms. June, do you have a different
party to attend to later tonight?
What?
Yes, my friends
are having a wine party.
You actually look quite nice
in that dress, I'm surprised.
Thank you!
It'll come in handy
in your mission later tonight.
My mission?
See those two men over there
in striped ties?
Oh, those two?
They're Englishmen.
I see them.
They're with Remix Holdings our
competitor in the Maeda deal.
Mr. Mitsuyoshi is here tonight,
he's the president of Maeda.
So I need you to get as close
as possible to them.
Pretend that you can't speak English.
And find out everything you can
about their meeting with Mitsuyoshi.
That's your mission.
Wait, you're saying...
So you want me to spy on them?
Isn't corporate data collection
your specialty, Ms. June?
You were so good this morning at
pretending you couldn't speak English.
But that was...
this morning was...
Robin!
Well look who we have here?
Hey, Nancy.
Go ahead.
So I get the work,
and you get to have fun?
Am I some sort of James Bond?
Oh my god, I'm sorry...
I'm so sorry, Are you OK?
It's quite alright, these
things happen. Are you alright?
I am alright. I am sorry.
Have yourself a good evening then.
You too. i'm sorry.
June, you're really on a roll tonight.
What should I do?
I blew my cover.
What?
I spoke in English!
Shit!
What do I do now?
Figure it out!
Steal their documents, if you have to!
Jesus!
I didn't expect to meet you here.
But I'm sure you're
well aware of those facts.
Of course. It's my job
to know the facts. You know?
By the way, who's the chap
over here talking to the president?
You don't think he's with
the competition, do you?
I wouldn't worry.
Nobody knows the president's
at the party except for us.
And besides, our real rivals are the
Americans, not that yellow monkey.
Remix Holdings seems
to be in a slump lately...
And there's a rumor
that your interests were at stake,
since the failed merger with
Neutreal Company...
is that true?
Well, there'll be a
big deal for us too, soon.
Oh really? I knew that!
Oh, don't worry. I'm not here to give
a report. You don't have to worry.
Off the record?
Of course! Off the record!
Vision?
Ripping a company apart and
selling it off... is that your vision?
Very well.
Bypassing the board and attempting
insider trading with Remix Holdings...
Is that your vision?
I'll show you real vision.
Wait and see.
Well that was well done, Ms. June.
I did not expect you to obtain
such classified information like that.
Well done?
It was their own piksari.
Piksari? What's that?
It was their own mistake... their fault!
Sorry, I still don't...
F.A.U.L.T... Fault!
Oh! Fault! Fault.
You have to enunciate that.
This is why I can't stand foreigners.
Yes it is true...
In business, one man's loss
is another man's gain...
Doing business like this,
I'll soon be a swindler.
The way I see it, you seem to have
a special talent for deception.
Huh?
That's a compliment, from me.
All right, then how about
this kind of business?
Since I scored one today, let's call
the car issue tungchigi.
- Okay?
- Tungchigi? What's that?
It means, let's forget it.
Absolutely not. That's personal.
Nothing to do with business.
You stingy...
My phone!
Hello, Jun-hyoung?
Boyfriend?
Never mind. This is personal.
Privacy!
The phone is off now,
you have to record...
You know if he calls and hangs up,
but doesn't answer your calls,
he's hiding something.
On what basis are you saying that?
That's what I do when I cheat.
If you don't believe me, try again.
Why don't you get out?
I don't want advice from a man
who's had affairs across the globe,
but has never experienced true love.
True love, huh?
What exactly is this
'true love' you're referring to?
Bang!
Like being hit in the heart by
a bullet... do you know that feeling?
A bullet?
I was hit by a bullet once,
but from a real gun.
Oh yes, of course you were.
True love means to share your hearts,
and not be lonely,
to be warm, happy, that sort of thing.
There's no such thing.
There is!
Where is it?
Here!
Then why is it, Ms. June,
that when I look at you,
I see anything but a happy person?
Let's go! I'll buy you dinner.
Thanks,
but I have a very important date.
Have a nice evening.
Hello.
Hey, June!
I'll catch up with you.
So you had a wild night
on your boyfriend's birthday?
What are you talking about?
Why deny it? We've pulled
all-nighters at work before.
I can tell from the way you look.
I didn't even get to see his face,
so lay off!
What? You stayed out all night,
but didn't meet your boyfriend?
Is he cheating on you or something?
God, don't try to jinx me!
What did I tell you last night?
The man has something to hide.
You two like rubbing salt
in my wounds, huh?
- He said he'd be there soon.
- Okay.
Get yourself something good to eat.
All right.
I'm not his assistant, I'm a slave.
He could have given me
this work earlier.
Excuse me.
Thank you.
I only regret one thing from my
past two failed relationships.
Why couldn't I have acted
with more intelligence?
With style, and grace!
That's what I'll do.
How could you do this to me?
You bastard!
Tell me, you jerk!
How could you do that?
Ma'am.
Don't touch her!
- Honey, who is this lady?
- What?
Please, you can't do this here.
Can you discuss this outside?
Jun-hyoung, you can't do this to me.
Let's go home, okay?
Why do you always act like this?
Can't you give me some space?
What?
You're the one who
made me this way, you know?
Don't call me anymore.
Let's go.
I'm sorry.
Hi?
Why have I been dumped
three times now?
Because you don't know the rules.
- Rules?
- The rules of the game!
Love isn't like playing Starcraft,
you know.
Yes, it is.
It's actually a game that requires
even greater precision and planning.
A game of power.
Manipulations of emotions
to control the mind... That's the game.
Oh, it is a game.
It's a game where the one
who displays affection first,
gives up total control and
goes around like a dog on a collar.
In relationships,
you were the one to call first,
and he was the one
to hang up first, right?
Right.
And when you got together,
you'd always run to him
and you always give him gifts
on anniversaries, only you, right?
Right! How did you know that?
I know because these
are the consequences
of dating without any
self respect, Ms. June.
That's how I know.
So take my advice,
and this is sincere, so listen to me.
If you continue acting like this,
being so... pathetic,
you will always be treated
like trash by men.
And you'll grow old...
all by yourself.
Apologize!
What would I be apologizing for?
I've never apologized
for anything in my life.
What's wrong with
admitting that I love him?
What's wrong with calling or visiting him
because I'm worried?
What's wrong with wanting
to do everything for him?
What?
I'll be treated
like trash all my life?
Screw you!
I could have a line of guys
begging for me if I wanted.
I could, but I don't.
You know why?
You could?
Then make me beg for you.
If you succeed,
I will apologize on my knees.
A woman who was just dumped needs
a shoulder to cry on, not a critic.
'It's not your fault.'
'He just wasn't the right guy for you'
A friend who can say this.
Have you been drinking?
One bottle of beer.
Not a case of beer?
Why are your eyes so swollen?
Dad, my friends are
all scared of their fathers,
but why do I feel like we're friends?
We're both getting old together,
maybe that's why.
What are you looking at?
Something your mom gave me,
exactly 34 years ago.
Mom? My mom?
Why, hard to believe?
I can't believe it either.
Adults should set an example
for their children.
Throwing trash everywhere,
the whole town is a trash can.
- You're here?
- Mom...
When did you arrive?
Just before.
What happened to your face?
Were you drinking again?
No, what do you mean?
- Dad... about what you...
- What's gotten into you?
You bastard.
Why did I like you?
You're nice.
Why did I stop liking you?
Cause you're nice.
Nice people are boring.
When did I ever ask you
for an allowance?
Getting meals is embarrassing enough.
Do you think you're my mom?
Can't you give me some space?
You're the one who
made me do this.
You'll always be treated like
trash by men, like a showgirl.
And you'll grow old...
all by yourself.
What kind of nightmare is that?
Just you wait, Robin Heiden.
I'm going to make you
beg on your knees to me.
Hello? Mi-hwa?
In most wars,
the weapons are guns and missiles.
But in this kind of war, they're
the newest hairstyles and dresses.
A beautiful weapon that will
make the enemy's heart pound.
Let's see who the winner is.
Ms. June?
Okay, I've got you now.
Yes?
Is that your grandmother's dress?
It's very similar to
my grandmother's pajamas.
First operation, failed.
This time, it's Operation Angel.
I'll give you the hand of evil
lurking behind an angel's smile.
Would you like some coffee, sir?
June, did you clean up my office?
Bingo!
It was a bit messy, so I...
Just when did I ask you to do that?
Yes?
Where is the uniform?
What uniform?
Oh, that!
I gave it to the cleaning lady.
ring it back to me, right now!!
Operation Angel, failed.
Jeonjeon Industrial Machinery?
Thank you.
Then, I'll handle this as you requested.
Yes.
Special measures need to be taken.
Bolder, more powerful!
If physical warfare is ineffective,
turn to psychological warfare.
Hi.
Why are you here?
Well, I...
I need to talk to you.
This couldn't wait until tomorrow?
I want to die!
You what?
Request his counsel on difficult
matters and bring out his soft side...
Here we go!
So what did you want to talk about?
I guess you were right, sir.
Whenever I fall in love,
I become a complete idiot.
I can't continue this way much longer.
What should I do?
Are you listening to me?
I'm listening. Keep going...
So help me, would you?
With what?
Last time you said love is a game.
Teach me the rules of the game.
I can't do that!
You can't?
That's right. I said I can't!
Why?
Why can't you?
What's the reason?
The reason?
It's because it's impossible to upgrade
from a 386 system to a Pentium.
Your brain might stop functioning,
from a fatal error.
Are you telling me
that my brain is a 386?
When a piece of stock has no future,
you have to know when to cut
your losses and when to sell.
Relationships are the same,
if there's nothing left to salvage,
you cut your losses and you sell.
Ms. June, how do you expect me
to teach you anything
if you don't even know the basics.
The 386 got waterlogged
and totally malfunctioned.
What now?
It must really pain you to
pay a high salary to a soggy 386.
Where are you going?
The soggy 386 is going to withdraw.
Good night.
Ms. Min-june.
Let me make a suggestion.
What is he up to?
You want June
to take charge of the deal?
What's wrong with assigning
a job to an employee?
Nothing.
It's just that Brian is
familiar with the whole project...
Brian, do you still want to be
in charge of this project, too?
Yes, of course I do!
O K. then.
I think the two of you should come up
with a strategy for the Brighton deal.
The one with a better concept
will take charge.
No problems then?
Yoon-mi.
Hold on. Yes?
The meeting's not over yet?
It seems like it will take a bit longer.
Furthermore, the valuation report
in an information memorandum
produced by Brighton had applied the
value marked prior to the modification.
I believe a discount
of 10% is feasible. That's all.
Good! Next!
I think the appropriate
line of negotiation
is about 30% lower
than the price they suggest.
So you are planning
to increase the rate by 20%?
Yes. That's possible.
According to an insider from GS Bank,
Stanley, one of the
main shareholders of Brighton,
has disposed all of his shares
in an equity swap deal.
Gosh, I can't believe it.
Me getting such a big deal.
Did you see their faces
during my presentation?
It's a bit presumptuous
of me to say this...
But don't you think
I really did a great job?
Don't assume anything
until the contract's signed.
Jeez...
What's wrong?
I feel bad about it.
About what?
I don't know.
I just feel sorry for him.
You see that. That is another
reason why men leave you.
What?
Listen to me very carefully.
Your indecisiveness,
your being overly sensitive,
will not only damage your love life
but your career as well.
Damn you...
The operations must go on.
No matter what.
- What are you doing?
- You scared me.
What are you doing now?
I'm packing lunch.
Don't you think I can see that?
Why are you doing it so seriously?
I'm out to catch a yellow monkey.
What?
Fatten yourself up.
I'm going to catch and eat you.
Yoon-mi, did the
president go somewhere?
He went out a little while ago. Why?
Nothing.
Yoon-mi, where did you get this?
Oh, Robin said I could have it.
What?
Some air-headed bimbo
must be hitting on him.
She ought to stay within her league.
I wonder what's inside.
What's wrong with you, Miss Kim?
Yoon-mi, do you suppose
I could have this?
What?
Why should you have it? It's mine.
Give it back.
Miss Kim!
Miss Kim.
Miss Kim.
What's with you?
Miss Kim!
Miss Kim!
Miss Kim!
Do you have to be so persistent?
Miss Kim!
Miss Kim!
Are you OK, sir?
Yeah! Sorry about that. Yeah
I'm so embarrassed. My god.
Where could it have gone?
Where did it fall out?
Hi, Sun-young.
Today? What's the occasion?
A blind date?
I'm leaving.
Hey. Sit down, will you?
Sun-young,
I appreciate your thought,
but I'm not that desperate yet.
Not that desperate?
Look, are you still
not over that bastard?
Don't call Jun-hyoung a bastard.
Okay fine, 'Jun-hyoung'.
Aren't you over him yet?
I don't know.
Hey, wake up, will you?
Just look at my marriage.
Love. Romance.
Sounds great when you're young.
But later, money is love,
and money is romance.
So listen to me today for once.
The guy coming today is
a friend of my brother-in-law.
He just passed the bar exam.
And he's a real wholesome guy, too.
Even his name, Jin-guk,
means 'wholesome.'
Excuse me...
Are you Ms. Park Sun-young?
- Good evening.
- Good evening.
Good evening, sir!
Good evening, Annie.
How are you?
I'm very good. How are you?
Good, good.
So what would you like to order?
Just the normal for me, please.
O K.
Since my family is from Gyeongju,
we'd need a bus for the wedding.
It's customary for the
bride's family to arrange this, no?
I'd be happy to pay, of course,
but according to custom...
Right?
You're right, of course!
And a hotel would be best
for me and Min-june's guests.
Oh, a hotel? That's just fabulous.
Don't you think, Min-june?
That's right. Fabulous.
That's so funny.
Min-june, do you ever
consult fortune tellers?
Fortune tellers?
I love having my fortune told!
In fact there is a Taoist who
we always consult for family affairs.
Excuse me,
I'll just visit the restroom.
Oh yes, empty yourself
to your heart's content.
How can I escape this?
How could she do this to me?
What does he want
at this time of day?
- Hello?
- Hello?
Yes, sir.
Where are you?
In the bathroom.
I'm near the office.
What time is it?
He calls me to ask that? My god.
It's 8: 10pm.
Where are you
and what are you doing?
I'm on an arranged date, why?
Arranged what?
Date! A blind date!
What?
What are you screaming about?
Ms. June.
Huh?
Do I need to remind you whose idea it
was to meet at the hotel bar at 7:00?
God, not again.
Do I look like a man who has
time to spare?
Hello, hello?
Damn, I need to change my phone.
Can't the battery last even a day?
I know that place!
I can't believe it.
- Really?
- What a coincidence!
Sorry, Sun-young.
I'll leave him to you.
No matter how hard you try,
I can still take you.
No way! You think
I'm still a high school boy?
I'm a man now!
Hey, hold it a sec.
Do we really need to do this
over a measly three dollars?
You could've given me the cash,
but you wanted to wrestle for it.
You little punk!
So who's calling in the dead of night?
- Hello? Hello?
- Give it to me, you...
Hello?
Why don't you say something?
Hello?
I'm really busy right now,
if you aren't going to speak,
please call me later.
Sorry.
You can't-just-jump in from behind!
Whatever. I'm not interested in him,
so you take care of it.
What about the meeting
of the families?
Families?
Hey, is he crazy or what?
You're the crazy one!
I've got a call. Let's talk later.
Min--june!
Hello?
What happened to the Maeda Contract?
Yes, sir.
The legal department
is still sorting through it.
Well I want it done, before noon!
Why don't you just eat me alive?
Oh, that's good news. Yeah.
No, I knew it was going to happen,
I just didn't know
it was going to happen so quickly.
I didn't know
he was going to cave in, right.
Well, that's good work, Steven.
That's very good.
And send my regards to Jennifer.
O K. Bye bye!
I'm sorry. The report you wanted...
When did you come in?
Just now.
Don't you ever knock?.
I did. Twice, even.
- Can that be true?
- I'm telling you, it is.
This is based on the information
we have acquired to date.
By the way, when will you
start the real lesson, master?
Are you aware that you are the person
in charge of the Maeda account?
Yes?
Maeda Motors sought legal action to
cover up their fraud over a week ago.
Did you know about this?
It's the first time I've heard of it.
It's your first time?
Then what have
you been doing all week?.
Do it again.
Have it back to me by tomorrow.
Hello. Hi, Jennifer.
Hi Jennifer!
Oh, Ms. Kim.
How is this dress?
What's the occasion?
Tonight is my birthday party!
I'm the guest of honor,
so I need to look good.
But isn't this a little too much?
There'll be lots of male colleagues.
Well, actually I heard this from
Ms. Jeon in the legal team...
Robin particularly likes
big-breasted, sexy women.
So I did myself up specially.
Aren't I so sexy?
Ha! So you finally
reveal your weak point.
Thanks everyone for coming
to my little birthday party!
Especially to the man
picking up the bill, our Robin...
I mean, our president.
Thank you!
What the hell?
Mr. Heiden!
Okay, then. Music? start!
All right then, I'll show you
the very essence of sexuality.
Hello?
Min--june? This is Jin-guk.
How have you been?
I've been fine.
Hello? Hello?
I can't hear you...
Thank you, everyone!
Care for a shot?
Next is our company's
hidden brain, Brian Hong!
I can't sing very well...

Oh my gosh, look at her!
Serves her right!
Not having fun?
Is that what you wore on
your date last night, too?
What?
You know, you look like a showgirl.
Are you that desperate for
a man's attention?
That's pathetic.
What do you care about
what I wore on my date?
Are you interested in me?
I actually feel sorry for you.
I was right from the beginning.
It was impossible to
upgrade you to a Pentium.
The most lethal of all operations
is the Life or Death Gamble.
Today, it's either you or me, pal.
Shall we make a bet
to lighten the mood?
Make a bet?
Whoever gets drunk first,
pays for tonight's bill, okay?
You'll regret it.
I've never lost a bet in my life.
Is that so? Neither have I.
Here we go!
Go Mr. Heiden!
You've had too much to drink.
You should give up.
Shut up!
Oh my gosh! Did you hear that?
Wow, now that I'm drunk,
my pronunciation is like a native.
Shut the fuck up, okay?
Everybody, one shot, please.
She's so drunk.
Ms. June!
Ms. June, what am I
going to do with you?
Are you O K?
You want to kiss me now, don't you?
But I'm never going to kiss you.
Why not? Because you're so dry...
You know you so dry.
On top of that, you're a playboy.
A playboy...
You O K?
I... I was...
Then do you remember
the president taking you home?
He did?
Yes. I wrote down
your address for him.
That's strange.
My family said they heard the doorbell,
and I was standing there alone.
Anyway, I acquired a
new respect for you last night.
Especially the way you
talked back to the president.
Do you remember?
Shut up!
Shut the fuck up! O K?
I said that?
Really?
Here's a new draft
of the Maeda contract.
Good. You can leave.
What?
Yeah.
Yes.
June, wait a minute.
- What happened last night was...
- About last night...
Please forget what happened
last night. It was a major mistake.
Whenever I get drunk, I...
I get a little crazy...
Good morning... I mean, goodbye.
Sir, I just spoke
with someone from Maeda.
Next week Chairman Mitsuyoshi
will visit Korea in person.
Congratulations.
A mistake?
Sir?
Great job, June... perfect.
They said I have a visitor downstairs.
Not getting on?
Are you O K?
Oh, my god!
You crazy fool,
how could you not remember!
Sun-young, are you crazy?
Min-june!
Min-june!
Hey, Kim Min-june!
Can it get any worse?
Hey, Kim Min-june!
Oh, Sun-young, here you are.
I've been looking all over for you.
Where are you going?
Oh, an urgent meeting just popped up.
Hello, Min-june...
How are you?
I'm sorry, but I have to go.
Do you have to leave this instant?
Yeah, what do I do?
Oh, here comes the car.
Over here!
Sorry, gotta go.
Sorry, Sun-young, my apologies...
Over here!
Bye! STOP!
STOP! STOP...
What's going on?
Just drive on first, please.
- What?
- Please,
I'll tell you later.
I'm sorry.
Well, should the two of us have lunch?
What?
Wait! What? Then who were
you doing it with that night?
It?
What do you mean it?
All I did that night
was wrestle with my brother.
Wrestling?
We were hungry, so we
wrestled over the takeout bill.
Why are you laughing?
You think it's funny that I wrestle?
No, it's nothing.
Don't laugh.
Or share it with me, at least.
Oh. Do you have any idea
how cute you really are?
Anyway, sorry I didn't keep
the appointment that day.
I thought you hadn't seen the card.
And about last night...
Thank you for taking me home.
That looks great, doesn't it?
Shall we take the ferry?
I've never taken one.
Never mind.
It's still working hours, right?
Should we go then?
Really?
Who's the boss?
Oh, that's right.
Then, shall we go?
- O K
- O K
Goodbye, then.
Women have a sort of antenna
that men don't know about.
According to my antenna, this man's
fallen completely for my operation.
But why is my heart beating so fast?
Min-june!
Oh... what are you doing here?
I need to talk to you.
I have nothing to say to you.
Huh?
I told you,
there's nothing to say. Let go.
Hey!
Who is this guy?
Are you already seeing someone else?
It's not a concern of yours.
Just let her go.
Tell me, do you have someone new?
He's my boss.
Just 30 minutes...
No, 10 or even 5 minutes...
Just talk with me a moment.
When have I ever
come for you like this?
Let's go.
That day, 5 minutes turned into 10,
then an hour, and two hours...
He said he wanted to come back to me.
No.
Please.
Now your boyfriend is back.
The lessons are over, right?
I don't understand
why I'm needed again.
You know what all the guys I've dated
said to me when we broke up?
That it was all my fault.
That everything was because of me.
But I don't think I was wrong.
And now, Jun-hyoung
is telling me it was his fault.
That means so much to me.
See that's why you're wrong.
That's your problem.
When it comes to a relationship,
you haven't the slightest clue.
I know.
You need technique,
even for love.
I admit it completely now.
That's why I'm asking for your help.
Weren't you the one with all
these glorified visions of true love?
One more chance!
A love without losing self-respect.
Self respect.
Self respect. I didn't know
you had any to begin with.
Hey, Robin Heiden!
Do you have any idea how I feel?
How could you, who's never
been hurt, understand me?
Instead of offering your help,
do you really have to crush
my last bit of self-respect?
This could be the end for me.
This could be my last chance.
So what I'm asking is...
O K. I'll help you.
This will be different.
It will be unlike any
love you had before.
You think you're ready for that?
If I can gain back my lost
self-respect, I don't care.
Robin!
It's been a while. I missed you.
I trust you've been well?
- When did you arrive?
- Just now.
And who is this lovely Pocahontas?
You are not cheating on me
behind my back, are you?
Say hello. This is Jennifer Cohen.
She's a member
of the U.S survey team,
head of the U.S office.
She is also very old friend of mine.
This is June.
She is an analyst here with
the local team in Korea.
- It's nice to meet you.
- It's nice to meet you, too.
Well... I'll just be going. Bye.
Bye.
Do you like her?
Did you eat?
Not yet. Are you taking me out?
Come on.
Love is a game ofpower,
a manipulation of emotions.
Are you ready?
yes!
Jun-hyoung
Don 't answer it.
you make him call three times.
If he really wants to see you,
he will call until you answer.
Pay attention!
You choose, he pays.
You shouldn't do that.
Smiles, compliments, gestures.
You are only feeding his ego.
One more thing.
If he already has a big ego, you need
to deflate it with some shock therapy.
No, definitely not!
Having sex with him now
is like handing him the game.
If you want to be treated
like a queen, then act like one.
How you train
your opponent is up to you.
- Let me do it.
- Stay still, you squirt.
I'll do it, Grandpa.
I'll put them on you.
Hello?
Well anyway, I'm looking forward
to seeing you next week.
One week from now?
Why?
Do you need more time on Maeda?
No, No. Should have no problems
finalizing Maeda by then. O K.
Good. Well, good luck with
the rest ofyour pro-jects.
Take care ofyourself, OK?
- O K. See you soon.
- See ya.
Hello?
Robin! Congratulations.
I heard you've been
appointed as managing director.
Thanks!
I think you've changed.
What? Is that so unusual?
People always change.
Don't change too much.
Actually, I liked the old you better.
What was the 'old me' like?
You were my pleasure bunny.
I wish you could remain
my pleasure bunny forever.
He was right. I was wrong.
What?
I don't know a thing about love.
Do you think I'm still the way I was?
Huh?
It's been fun.
To commemorate our separation,
I'll pay the bill.
Bye.
Hey, Kim Min-june!
Huh, Kim Min-june?
From now on, call me big sister!
And you pay the bill!
What's wrong?
Trouble with your boyfriend again?
I just feel confused.
I guess manipulating people
isn't that fun.
It's tiring, and kind of hard.
No pain no gain, right?
I'm curious.
What if, in manipulating people,
we lose the pleasure
of an honest conversation?
Why use manipulation if we
can't discover one's true feelings?
Have you been happy
in that sort of relationship?
The funny thing is,
after all that's happened,
I still miss the old me.
Instead of calculating,
I want to be honest.
Instead of receiving,
I want to give.
Instead of hiding,
to let out all my feelings...
Gosh, men are right.
It's all my fault that
things turned out this way.
I'm really hopeless.
You know, it's not your fault.
They just weren't
the right men for you.
What?
Have you ever heard someone say
what you really wanted to hear?
Well. You mean when I make deals?
Looks like it's going to rain.
We should go back to the hotel.
I think I'd better just go home today.
I have an umbrella in my room.
I think you should take it.
No, I'll leave from here.
What the hell are you doing?
Are you trying get yourself killed?
You cross the road, you look first.
You're gonna give me a heart attack.
Is that what you want, huh?
If you took the taxi,
why is your hair so wet?
What on earth is up with you?
Dad, I think my head is messed up.
What?
Some guy completely blew up at me,
but it felt like he said he loves me.
He was screaming at me,
but it sounded like a sweet whisper.
What's wrong with me?
What's wrong?
You're in love with him, that's all.
No, Dad. I'm not in love with him.
I don't like him.
Yeah? Then I guess
he's in love with you.
No, that can't be it, either.
How do you know?
Have you asked him?
I haven't,
but anyway it can't be true.
He's too cold to me.
You silly girl.
Words do not
always express one's feelings.
Your mom says my face
makes her sick,
but do you believe it?
You have to read the eyes!
People can lie with words,
but not with their eyes.
- You look good.
- Thank you.
Yeah. Oh. Hold this, doorbell.
Don't drink that, don't drink it.
Hi, Pocahontas. We meet again.
Hi.
Did Robin invite you?
I'm sorry. Please, come in.
We just started.
I'm just...
Robin just went down
to the lobby for a minute.
He will be right back.
Cheers to Robin,
because he's going away,
and we're not going to
see him for a very long time.
I can't believe he is leaving.
He is leaving?
What do you mean?
Robin didn't tell you?
He's been appointed to head the
U.S. office. He's leaving next week.
Excuse me.
Sure.
She's pretty cute, huh?
You can't be serious.
Gentlemen.
- Robin.
- How are you doing?
I am great. How are you?
Did you guys get some food?
Excuse me.
Jen. Don't do this right now.
Do you know how humiliating
this is for me to say?
Is this what I've worked so hard
for as the corporate spy?
Please tell me how
she qualifies while I don't!
I don't know the what the hell
are you talking about.
You're not thinking of taking that
woman back to the States, are you?
That woman is just someone
I work with,
nothing else.
Min-june.
When did you come?
A little while ago.
Why are you leaving?
Didn't you come to see me?
I came here to tell you something.
What's that?
I am getting married.
I wanted to tell you.
It's all because of you.
Thanks for your help.
Go on back in. Bye.
Yoon-mi, cheer up.
Everything will work out.
Mitsuyoshi is in Seoul to close
this deal. So just be prepared.
Yes sir, I see.
Yes?
You know Robin and I have been
friends for very long time.
Why are you telling me this?
I've known Robin
for more than 10 years.
And I've been there for him
when he's been sad,
and when he's been happy.
And you may not know this, but it's
a very important time for Robin now.
Has he ever told you
about his first love?
No. I am not interested.
So I don't think you should tell me.
Really?
So you haven't seen his scar yet?
Scar?
Robin's chest.
It's a bullet wound
from the first woman he ever loved.
What?
He couldn't let her go
for up to a year
even though she'd left him
for another man.
It took a bullet wound
for him to accept it.
As head of the project,
I would like to extend my appreciation
for the agreement our two companies
were able to settle.
We are especially honored
by Mr. Mitsuyoshi's...
One second.
Please, feel free to speak.
You have missing out
on letting us know
of a very important factor
in this transaction.
According to this final contract,
the company name will be changed.
Pardon my interruption,
Mr. Mitsuyoshi.
But I'm simply acting
on my right
and my privilege as one
who is buying your company.
Is that so?
Well, this may be a late notice.
But I would like to act
on my rights as the seller, too.
Let's call this deal off.
What are you talking about?
Changing the name of the company
is like changing
the names of all the employees.
I can't let this happen.
Do you actually think there'll be
another firm interested
in taking over your company
for the price we've offered?
Are you insulting me
and my company?
Just a moment, please.
I am sorry.
Let's all calm down and
take a short break, shall we?
I can't believe this.
How can this happen, Sir?
I didn't even see this clause.
I knew it would cause delays in
finalizing the deal,
so I put it off until today.
The situation is very bad,
why don't we take it out?
If we take out that clause now,
there is no point taking over Maeda.
What's your reason?
Why do we have to change
the name of the company?
Min-june, watch yourself!
This is an extremely important issue
to Japanese businessmen.
It's the company my grandfather
worked for... his whole life.
What?
The uniform in my room
is my grandfather's.
Wait.
Please wait.
I am afraid the negotiation is over.
We'll get back to you
next week with our decision.
I understand, but...
I have a story that I must tell
Mr. Mitsuyoshi and everyone.
Mr. Mitsuyoshi. Do you remember
the uniform in that picture?
That uniform is 50 years old.
I'm sure you remember it,
Mr. Mitsuyoshi.
I am sure you remember
the young men,
tending to the machines
wearing that uniform.
One of the young men
who wore that uniform
has so much pride
in this company and the uniform.
He worked on the same job
for 30 years, and even when
he overworked himself to his death
he never took this uniform off.
When he passed away,
he left this uniform behind.
That's when the boy
promised his grandfather
that he would print the
old man's name on the uniform.
That grandson is waiting for all
of you just outside the door.
Honorable Mr. Chairman
and the board of directors.
Won't you please help that
grandson to keep his promise?
So that's what happened.
However, changing the name of the
company is beyond my power.
But I can promise you this.
I will call a board meeting
regarding on this matter,
and I will act on my rights
as the chief executive.
But you realize that this is
really the responsibility for you
and this lady's to
persuade the Board
don't you?
Yes, sir!
You have an
excellent intuition with people.
You have a great lady working for you.
I can't thank you enough for helping me
to keep my promise to my grandfather.
I'll accept your thanks later.
Nothing is certain
until the contract is signed.
Wait!
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
What?
If I've ever hurt you in anyway.
I am truly sorry.
I sincerely mean that.
You've brought me
nothing but good fortune.
You're more than worthy
of any man's love.
You're... you're more beautiful than
any woman I've ever met in my life.
I just...
I just wanted to say that before I leave.
You jerk!
Since when did you start liking me?
From the first day I met you.
I saw that lipstick mark,
and I wanted to kiss you.
Really?
That night, I knew it.
The kind of love I had
always dreamed of really exists.
I am Min-june's father.
You love... my...
Dad, he understands Korean.
Huh?
- Really?
- Is that so? Gosh...
Son, what I want to ask is...
...Sir!
Sir, do you love my daughter?
Yes, sir!
He said yes.
So the reason you are visiting us
is because you want
to marry my daughter?
No, it's not that.
I do love Min-june,
it's just that I have no intention
of marrying her...just yet.
He said he loves her,
but he doesn't want to marry her.
What the hell is that
supposed to mean?
- Get out!
- Honey, wait!
Get out, you mannerless brat!
- Dad!
- Didn't you come to ask...?
You quit your job tomorrow!

Then are you planning to give up on
purchasing the remaining companies?
There's no way we can
abandon our affiliates.
And even so, this is too different
from your original proposal.
We understand.
But unfortunately, we recently got
our hands on some financial reports
for Maeda Motors and
its seven affiliated companies.
It appears the accounts for the
last two years have been heavily manipulated.
I'm sure none of you,
nor Mr. Mitsuyoshi for that matter
would want this
to become public knowledge.
I have no plans
to abandon your affiliates.
However, we'll discuss the
details further in Korea
once the final audit is complete.
Good day, gentlemen.

SEDUCING MR. PERFECT
I like the city.
I get my full share of nature
at organic restaurants.
Coffee, shopping, entertainment!
This is my beloved trinity.
If I had an overflowing mileage card,
I'd travel to all the world's cities.
And then one day,
my chance came.
My boyfriend's business trip
to Hong Kong.
So I decided to call in sick
and go along with him.
A secret rendezvous, plus
exploring the city... all in one go!
But that day...
he never showed up.
And his cell phone was switched off.
Is it possible to find a love
that won't make me lonely?
That makes me warm and happy?
And is this man
the true love I'm looking for?
Oh, damn...
How could you stop like that
all of a sudden?
What are you smirking about?
Oops... Gosh, I'm sorry.
I didn't see it.
Look, I don't have time for this,
so give me your business card.
Huh?
Your business card.
What, you don't speak English?
No! I don't speak English.
Not a word!
Then give me your phone number.
Oh, gosh... I have no
idea what you're saying.
Phone number!
Hello? Jun-hyoung?
Sorry, it's Sun-young.
How was the trip?
Trip, my ass...
I got stood up in Hong Kong.
What? That punk disappeared again?
He'll call today. It's his birthday.
Hey, is the appendix
on the right or left?
I told the company I was getting
my appendix removed.
I'll call you back.
What are you doing?
Huh?
What do you think you're doing?
Now I have your picture.
I have your phone number.
I'll call you with the bill.
Hey, look!
Erase the photo. My photo!
Hey,
I said erase the photo! Hello?
Hey asshole!
Ms. Kim, did the surgery go well?
Surgery?... Sure...
While you were at it, you should've
removed some belly fat.
Looks like you got a tire
around your waist.
Jesus!
Don't take it so hard!
I wish I had some belly fat.
I think it's cute.
Tadpole belly...
Wait, while you were gone,
there was some big news!
The new branch president flew in
from the U.S. headquarters.
Wasn't he supposed to arrive later?
And what about the director?
He was just a temporary appointment.
A fox sleeping in a tiger's cave...
Anyway, my point is,
the new guy's
specs are out of this world.
Specs?
His name's Robin Heiden, age 31.
Harvard Law School,
and of course an MBA.
He speaks 5 languages,
and is an expert in M&As.
Headquarters sees him as potential
CEO material.
Isn 't it fantastic?
That's good, Steven. OK.
This is June from the M&A team.
She will be your assistant, starting today.
Assistant?
She's been in charge of research
on the Maeda company.
June, introduce yourself.
Nice to meet you.
It's a pleasure to see you again.
I am so sorry.
I was so confused this morning, I...
If you find English difficult,
please feel free to speak Korean.
Pardon me?
Just speak in Korean!
He understands Korean quite well.
Though he finds speaking
a bit challenging.
So from now on, he'll speak English
and we will speak Korean.
Respecting each other's language
and raising our work efficiency.
Isn't his suggestion just
perfect for this global era?
By the way, Ms. June?
Yes?
It says here you took a sick leave
for an appendix removal.
Is the left side of your stomach okay?
Yes, it's fine.
That's good. By the way,
the appendix is on the right side.
You'll have to excuse me.
I have an appointment to catch.
So I will see both of you
at the party tonight.
June, you've met him before?
No, we just said hi in the elevator...
But why was I chosen?
How would I know?
He singled you out himself.
Singled me out?
And by the way...
Tonight's the party,
can you go dressed like that?
Remember tonight's the party.
Ms. June, do you have a different
party to attend to later tonight?
What?
Yes, my friends
are having a wine party.
You actually look quite nice
in that dress, I'm surprised.
Thank you!
It'll come in handy
in your mission later tonight.
My mission?
See those two men over there
in striped ties?
Oh, those two?
They're Englishmen.
I see them.
They're with Remix Holdings our
competitor in the Maeda deal.
Mr. Mitsuyoshi is here tonight,
he's the president of Maeda.
So I need you to get as close
as possible to them.
Pretend that you can't speak English.
And find out everything you can
about their meeting with Mitsuyoshi.
That's your mission.
Wait, you're saying...
So you want me to spy on them?
Isn't corporate data collection
your specialty, Ms. June?
You were so good this morning at
pretending you couldn't speak English.
But that was...
this morning was...
Robin!
Well look who we have here?
Hey, Nancy.
Go ahead.
So I get the work,
and you get to have fun?
Am I some sort of James Bond?
Oh my god, I'm sorry...
I'm so sorry, Are you OK?
It's quite alright, these
things happen. Are you alright?
I am alright. I am sorry.
Have yourself a good evening then.
You too. i'm sorry.
June, you're really on a roll tonight.
What should I do?
I blew my cover.
What?
I spoke in English!
Shit!
What do I do now?
Figure it out!
Steal their documents, if you have to!
Jesus!
I didn't expect to meet you here.
But I'm sure you're
well aware of those facts.
Of course. It's my job
to know the facts. You know?
By the way, who's the chap
over here talking to the president?
You don't think he's with
the competition, do you?
I wouldn't worry.
Nobody knows the president's
at the party except for us.
And besides, our real rivals are the
Americans, not that yellow monkey.
Remix Holdings seems
to be in a slump lately...
And there's a rumor
that your interests were at stake,
since the failed merger with
Neutreal Company...
is that true?
Well, there'll be a
big deal for us too, soon.
Oh really? I knew that!
Oh, don't worry. I'm not here to give
a report. You don't have to worry.
Off the record?
Of course! Off the record!
Vision?
Ripping a company apart and
selling it off... is that your vision?
Very well.
Bypassing the board and attempting
insider trading with Remix Holdings...
Is that your vision?
I'll show you real vision.
Wait and see.
Well that was well done, Ms. June.
I did not expect you to obtain
such classified information like that.
Well done?
It was their own piksari.
Piksari? What's that?
It was their own mistake... their fault!
Sorry, I still don't...
F.A.U.L.T... Fault!
Oh! Fault! Fault.
You have to enunciate that.
This is why I can't stand foreigners.
Yes it is true...
In business, one man's loss
is another man's gain...
Doing business like this,
I'll soon be a swindler.
The way I see it, you seem to have
a special talent for deception.
Huh?
That's a compliment, from me.
All right, then how about
this kind of business?
Since I scored one today, let's call
the car issue tungchigi.
- Okay?
- Tungchigi? What's that?
It means, let's forget it.
Absolutely not. That's personal.
Nothing to do with business.
You stingy...
My phone!
Hello, Jun-hyoung?
Boyfriend?
Never mind. This is personal.
Privacy!
The phone is off now,
you have to record...
You know if he calls and hangs up,
but doesn't answer your calls,
he's hiding something.
On what basis are you saying that?
That's what I do when I cheat.
If you don't believe me, try again.
Why don't you get out?
I don't want advice from a man
who's had affairs across the globe,
but has never experienced true love.
True love, huh?
What exactly is this
'true love' you're referring to?
Bang!
Like being hit in the heart by
a bullet... do you know that feeling?
A bullet?
I was hit by a bullet once,
but from a real gun.
Oh yes, of course you were.
True love means to share your hearts,
and not be lonely,
to be warm, happy, that sort of thing.
There's no such thing.
There is!
Where is it?
Here!
Then why is it, Ms. June,
that when I look at you,
I see anything but a happy person?
Let's go! I'll buy you dinner.
Thanks,
but I have a very important date.
Have a nice evening.
Hello.
Hey, June!
I'll catch up with you.
So you had a wild night
on your boyfriend's birthday?
What are you talking about?
Why deny it? We've pulled
all-nighters at work before.
I can tell from the way you look.
I didn't even get to see his face,
so lay off!
What? You stayed out all night,
but didn't meet your boyfriend?
Is he cheating on you or something?
God, don't try to jinx me!
What did I tell you last night?
The man has something to hide.
You two like rubbing salt
in my wounds, huh?
- He said he'd be there soon.
- Okay.
Get yourself something good to eat.
All right.
I'm not his assistant, I'm a slave.
He could have given me
this work earlier.
Excuse me.
Thank you.
I only regret one thing from my
past two failed relationships.
Why couldn't I have acted
with more intelligence?
With style, and grace!
That's what I'll do.
How could you do this to me?
You bastard!
Tell me, you jerk!
How could you do that?
Ma'am.
Don't touch her!
- Honey, who is this lady?
- What?
Please, you can't do this here.
Can you discuss this outside?
Jun-hyoung, you can't do this to me.
Let's go home, okay?
Why do you always act like this?
Can't you give me some space?
What?
You're the one who
made me this way, you know?
Don't call me anymore.
Let's go.
I'm sorry.
Hi?
Why have I been dumped
three times now?
Because you don't know the rules.
- Rules?
- The rules of the game!
Love isn't like playing Starcraft,
you know.
Yes, it is.
It's actually a game that requires
even greater precision and planning.
A game of power.
Manipulations of emotions
to control the mind... That's the game.
Oh, it is a game.
It's a game where the one
who displays affection first,
gives up total control and
goes around like a dog on a collar.
In relationships,
you were the one to call first,
and he was the one
to hang up first, right?
Right.
And when you got together,
you'd always run to him
and you always give him gifts
on anniversaries, only you, right?
Right! How did you know that?
I know because these
are the consequences
of dating without any
self respect, Ms. June.
That's how I know.
So take my advice,
and this is sincere, so listen to me.
If you continue acting like this,
being so... pathetic,
you will always be treated
like trash by men.
And you'll grow old...
all by yourself.
Apologize!
What would I be apologizing for?
I've never apologized
for anything in my life.
What's wrong with
admitting that I love him?
What's wrong with calling or visiting him
because I'm worried?
What's wrong with wanting
to do everything for him?
What?
I'll be treated
like trash all my life?
Screw you!
I could have a line of guys
begging for me if I wanted.
I could, but I don't.
You know why?
You could?
Then make me beg for you.
If you succeed,
I will apologize on my knees.
A woman who was just dumped needs
a shoulder to cry on, not a critic.
'It's not your fault.'
'He just wasn't the right guy for you'
A friend who can say this.
Have you been drinking?
One bottle of beer.
Not a case of beer?
Why are your eyes so swollen?
Dad, my friends are
all scared of their fathers,
but why do I feel like we're friends?
We're both getting old together,
maybe that's why.
What are you looking at?
Something your mom gave me,
exactly 34 years ago.
Mom? My mom?
Why, hard to believe?
I can't believe it either.
Adults should set an example
for their children.
Throwing trash everywhere,
the whole town is a trash can.
- You're here?
- Mom...
When did you arrive?
Just before.
What happened to your face?
Were you drinking again?
No, what do you mean?
- Dad... about what you...
- What's gotten into you?
You bastard.
Why did I like you?
You're nice.
Why did I stop liking you?
Cause you're nice.
Nice people are boring.
When did I ever ask you
for an allowance?
Getting meals is embarrassing enough.
Do you think you're my mom?
Can't you give me some space?
You're the one who
made me do this.
You'll always be treated like
trash by men, like a showgirl.
And you'll grow old...
all by yourself.
What kind of nightmare is that?
Just you wait, Robin Heiden.
I'm going to make you
beg on your knees to me.
Hello? Mi-hwa?
In most wars,
the weapons are guns and missiles.
But in this kind of war, they're
the newest hairstyles and dresses.
A beautiful weapon that will
make the enemy's heart pound.
Let's see who the winner is.
Ms. June?
Okay, I've got you now.
Yes?
Is that your grandmother's dress?
It's very similar to
my grandmother's pajamas.
First operation, failed.
This time, it's Operation Angel.
I'll give you the hand of evil
lurking behind an angel's smile.
Would you like some coffee, sir?
June, did you clean up my office?
Bingo!
It was a bit messy, so I...
Just when did I ask you to do that?
Yes?
Where is the uniform?
What uniform?
Oh, that!
I gave it to the cleaning lady.
ring it back to me, right now!!
Operation Angel, failed.
Jeonjeon Industrial Machinery?
Thank you.
Then, I'll handle this as you requested.
Yes.
Special measures need to be taken.
Bolder, more powerful!
If physical warfare is ineffective,
turn to psychological warfare.
Hi.
Why are you here?
Well, I...
I need to talk to you.
This couldn't wait until tomorrow?
I want to die!
You what?
Request his counsel on difficult
matters and bring out his soft side...
Here we go!
So what did you want to talk about?
I guess you were right, sir.
Whenever I fall in love,
I become a complete idiot.
I can't continue this way much longer.
What should I do?
Are you listening to me?
I'm listening. Keep going...
So help me, would you?
With what?
Last time you said love is a game.
Teach me the rules of the game.
I can't do that!
You can't?
That's right. I said I can't!
Why?
Why can't you?
What's the reason?
The reason?
It's because it's impossible to upgrade
from a 386 system to a Pentium.
Your brain might stop functioning,
from a fatal error.
Are you telling me
that my brain is a 386?
When a piece of stock has no future,
you have to know when to cut
your losses and when to sell.
Relationships are the same,
if there's nothing left to salvage,
you cut your losses and you sell.
Ms. June, how do you expect me
to teach you anything
if you don't even know the basics.
The 386 got waterlogged
and totally malfunctioned.
What now?
It must really pain you to
pay a high salary to a soggy 386.
Where are you going?
The soggy 386 is going to withdraw.
Good night.
Ms. Min-june.
Let me make a suggestion.
What is he up to?
You want June
to take charge of the deal?
What's wrong with assigning
a job to an employee?
Nothing.
It's just that Brian is
familiar with the whole project...
Brian, do you still want to be
in charge of this project, too?
Yes, of course I do!
O K. then.
I think the two of you should come up
with a strategy for the Brighton deal.
The one with a better concept
will take charge.
No problems then?
Yoon-mi.
Hold on. Yes?
The meeting's not over yet?
It seems like it will take a bit longer.
Furthermore, the valuation report
in an information memorandum
produced by Brighton had applied the
value marked prior to the modification.
I believe a discount
of 10% is feasible. That's all.
Good! Next!
I think the appropriate
line of negotiation
is about 30% lower
than the price they suggest.
So you are planning
to increase the rate by 20%?
Yes. That's possible.
According to an insider from GS Bank,
Stanley, one of the
main shareholders of Brighton,
has disposed all of his shares
in an equity swap deal.
Gosh, I can't believe it.
Me getting such a big deal.
Did you see their faces
during my presentation?
It's a bit presumptuous
of me to say this...
But don't you think
I really did a great job?
Don't assume anything
until the contract's signed.
Jeez...
What's wrong?
I feel bad about it.
About what?
I don't know.
I just feel sorry for him.
You see that. That is another
reason why men leave you.
What?
Listen to me very carefully.
Your indecisiveness,
your being overly sensitive,
will not only damage your love life
but your career as well.
Damn you...
The operations must go on.
No matter what.
- What are you doing?
- You scared me.
What are you doing now?
I'm packing lunch.
Don't you think I can see that?
Why are you doing it so seriously?
I'm out to catch a yellow monkey.
What?
Fatten yourself up.
I'm going to catch and eat you.
Yoon-mi, did the
president go somewhere?
He went out a little while ago. Why?
Nothing.
Yoon-mi, where did you get this?
Oh, Robin said I could have it.
What?
Some air-headed bimbo
must be hitting on him.
She ought to stay within her league.
I wonder what's inside.
What's wrong with you, Miss Kim?
Yoon-mi, do you suppose
I could have this?
What?
Why should you have it? It's mine.
Give it back.
Miss Kim!
Miss Kim.
Miss Kim.
What's with you?
Miss Kim!
Miss Kim!
Miss Kim!
Do you have to be so persistent?
Miss Kim!
Miss Kim!
Are you OK, sir?
Yeah! Sorry about that. Yeah
I'm so embarrassed. My god.
Where could it have gone?
Where did it fall out?
Hi, Sun-young.
Today? What's the occasion?
A blind date?
I'm leaving.
Hey. Sit down, will you?
Sun-young,
I appreciate your thought,
but I'm not that desperate yet.
Not that desperate?
Look, are you still
not over that bastard?
Don't call Jun-hyoung a bastard.
Okay fine, 'Jun-hyoung'.
Aren't you over him yet?
I don't know.
Hey, wake up, will you?
Just look at my marriage.
Love. Romance.
Sounds great when you're young.
But later, money is love,
and money is romance.
So listen to me today for once.
The guy coming today is
a friend of my brother-in-law.
He just passed the bar exam.
And he's a real wholesome guy, too.
Even his name, Jin-guk,
means 'wholesome.'
Excuse me...
Are you Ms. Park Sun-young?
- Good evening.
- Good evening.
Good evening, sir!
Good evening, Annie.
How are you?
I'm very good. How are you?
Good, good.
So what would you like to order?
Just the normal for me, please.
O K.
Since my family is from Gyeongju,
we'd need a bus for the wedding.
It's customary for the
bride's family to arrange this, no?
I'd be happy to pay, of course,
but according to custom...
Right?
You're right, of course!
And a hotel would be best
for me and Min-june's guests.
Oh, a hotel? That's just fabulous.
Don't you think, Min-june?
That's right. Fabulous.
That's so funny.
Min-june, do you ever
consult fortune tellers?
Fortune tellers?
I love having my fortune told!
In fact there is a Taoist who
we always consult for family affairs.
Excuse me,
I'll just visit the restroom.
Oh yes, empty yourself
to your heart's content.
How can I escape this?
How could she do this to me?
What does he want
at this time of day?
- Hello?
- Hello?
Yes, sir.
Where are you?
In the bathroom.
I'm near the office.
What time is it?
He calls me to ask that? My god.
It's 8: 10pm.
Where are you
and what are you doing?
I'm on an arranged date, why?
Arranged what?
Date! A blind date!
What?
What are you screaming about?
Ms. June.
Huh?
Do I need to remind you whose idea it
was to meet at the hotel bar at 7:00?
God, not again.
Do I look like a man who has
time to spare?
Hello, hello?
Damn, I need to change my phone.
Can't the battery last even a day?
I know that place!
I can't believe it.
- Really?
- What a coincidence!
Sorry, Sun-young.
I'll leave him to you.
No matter how hard you try,
I can still take you.
No way! You think
I'm still a high school boy?
I'm a man now!
Hey, hold it a sec.
Do we really need to do this
over a measly three dollars?
You could've given me the cash,
but you wanted to wrestle for it.
You little punk!
So who's calling in the dead of night?
- Hello? Hello?
- Give it to me, you...
Hello?
Why don't you say something?
Hello?
I'm really busy right now,
if you aren't going to speak,
please call me later.
Sorry.
You can't-just-jump in from behind!
Whatever. I'm not interested in him,
so you take care of it.
What about the meeting
of the families?
Families?
Hey, is he crazy or what?
You're the crazy one!
I've got a call. Let's talk later.
Min--june!
Hello?
What happened to the Maeda Contract?
Yes, sir.
The legal department
is still sorting through it.
Well I want it done, before noon!
Why don't you just eat me alive?
Oh, that's good news. Yeah.
No, I knew it was going to happen,
I just didn't know
it was going to happen so quickly.
I didn't know
he was going to cave in, right.
Well, that's good work, Steven.
That's very good.
And send my regards to Jennifer.
O K. Bye bye!
I'm sorry. The report you wanted...
When did you come in?
Just now.
Don't you ever knock?.
I did. Twice, even.
- Can that be true?
- I'm telling you, it is.
This is based on the information
we have acquired to date.
By the way, when will you
start the real lesson, master?
Are you aware that you are the person
in charge of the Maeda account?
Yes?
Maeda Motors sought legal action to
cover up their fraud over a week ago.
Did you know about this?
It's the first time I've heard of it.
It's your first time?
Then what have
you been doing all week?.
Do it again.
Have it back to me by tomorrow.
Hello. Hi, Jennifer.
Hi Jennifer!
Oh, Ms. Kim.
How is this dress?
What's the occasion?
Tonight is my birthday party!
I'm the guest of honor,
so I need to look good.
But isn't this a little too much?
There'll be lots of male colleagues.
Well, actually I heard this from
Ms. Jeon in the legal team...
Robin particularly likes
big-breasted, sexy women.
So I did myself up specially.
Aren't I so sexy?
Ha! So you finally
reveal your weak point.
Thanks everyone for coming
to my little birthday party!
Especially to the man
picking up the bill, our Robin...
I mean, our president.
Thank you!
What the hell?
Mr. Heiden!
Okay, then. Music? start!
All right then, I'll show you
the very essence of sexuality.
Hello?
Min--june? This is Jin-guk.
How have you been?
I've been fine.
Hello? Hello?
I can't hear you...
Thank you, everyone!
Care for a shot?
Next is our company's
hidden brain, Brian Hong!
I can't sing very well...
( Love for night
( Don'tyou know my love
( Love for night Need you my love

Oh my gosh, look at her!
Serves her right!
Not having fun?
Is that what you wore on
your date last night, too?
What?
You know, you look like a showgirl.
Are you that desperate for
a man's attention?
That's pathetic.
What do you care about
what I wore on my date?
Are you interested in me?
I actually feel sorry for you.
I was right from the beginning.
It was impossible to
upgrade you to a Pentium.
The most lethal of all operations
is the Life or Death Gamble.
Today, it's either you or me, pal.
Shall we make a bet
to lighten the mood?
Make a bet?
Whoever gets drunk first,
pays for tonight's bill, okay?
You'll regret it.
I've never lost a bet in my life.
Is that so? Neither have I.
Here we go!
Go Mr. Heiden!
You've had too much to drink.
You should give up.
Shut up!
Oh my gosh! Did you hear that?
Wow, now that I'm drunk,
my pronunciation is like a native.
Shut the fuck up, okay?
Everybody, one shot, please.
She's so drunk.
Ms. June!
Ms. June, what am I
going to do with you?
Are you O K?
You want to kiss me now, don't you?
But I'm never going to kiss you.
Why not? Because you're so dry...
You know you so dry.
On top of that, you're a playboy.
A playboy...
You O K?
I... I was...
Then do you remember
the president taking you home?
He did?
Yes. I wrote down
your address for him.
That's strange.
My family said they heard the doorbell,
and I was standing there alone.
Anyway, I acquired a
new respect for you last night.
Especially the way you
talked back to the president.
Do you remember?
Shut up!
Shut the fuck up! O K?
I said that?
Really?
Here's a new draft
of the Maeda contract.
Good. You can leave.
What?
Yeah.
Yes.
June, wait a minute.
- What happened last night was...
- About last night...
Please forget what happened
last night. It was a major mistake.
Whenever I get drunk, I...
I get a little crazy...
Good morning... I mean, goodbye.
Sir, I just spoke
with someone from Maeda.
Next week Chairman Mitsuyoshi
will visit Korea in person.
Congratulations.
A mistake?
Sir?
Great job, June... perfect.
They said I have a visitor downstairs.
Not getting on?
Are you O K?
Oh, my god!
You crazy fool,
how could you not remember!
Sun-young, are you crazy?
Min-june!
Min-june!
Hey, Kim Min-june!
Can it get any worse?
Hey, Kim Min-june!
Oh, Sun-young, here you are.
I've been looking all over for you.
Where are you going?
Oh, an urgent meeting just popped up.
Hello, Min-june...
How are you?
I'm sorry, but I have to go.
Do you have to leave this instant?
Yeah, what do I do?
Oh, here comes the car.
Over here!
Sorry, gotta go.
Sorry, Sun-young, my apologies...
Over here!
Bye! STOP!
STOP! STOP...
What's going on?
Just drive on first, please.
- What?
- Please,
I'll tell you later.
I'm sorry.
Well, should the two of us have lunch?
What?
Wait! What? Then who were
you doing it with that night?
It?
What do you mean it?
All I did that night
was wrestle with my brother.
Wrestling?
We were hungry, so we
wrestled over the takeout bill.
Why are you laughing?
You think it's funny that I wrestle?
No, it's nothing.
Don't laugh.
Or share it with me, at least.
Oh. Do you have any idea
how cute you really are?
Anyway, sorry I didn't keep
the appointment that day.
I thought you hadn't seen the card.
And about last night...
Thank you for taking me home.
That looks great, doesn't it?
Shall we take the ferry?
I've never taken one.
Never mind.
It's still working hours, right?
Should we go then?
Really?
Who's the boss?
Oh, that's right.
Then, shall we go?
- O K
- O K
Goodbye, then.
Women have a sort of antenna
that men don't know about.
According to my antenna, this man's
fallen completely for my operation.
But why is my heart beating so fast?
Min-june!
Oh... what are you doing here?
I need to talk to you.
I have nothing to say to you.
Huh?
I told you,
there's nothing to say. Let go.
Hey!
Who is this guy?
Are you already seeing someone else?
It's not a concern of yours.
Just let her go.
Tell me, do you have someone new?
He's my boss.
Just 30 minutes...
No, 10 or even 5 minutes...
Just talk with me a moment.
When have I ever
come for you like this?
Let's go.
That day, 5 minutes turned into 10,
then an hour, and two hours...
He said he wanted to come back to me.
No.
Please.
Now your boyfriend is back.
The lessons are over, right?
I don't understand
why I'm needed again.
You know what all the guys I've dated
said to me when we broke up?
That it was all my fault.
That everything was because of me.
But I don't think I was wrong.
And now, Jun-hyoung
is telling me it was his fault.
That means so much to me.
See that's why you're wrong.
That's your problem.
When it comes to a relationship,
you haven't the slightest clue.
I know.
You need technique,
even for love.
I admit it completely now.
That's why I'm asking for your help.
Weren't you the one with all
these glorified visions of true love?
One more chance!
A love without losing self-respect.
Self respect.
Self respect. I didn't know
you had any to begin with.
Hey, Robin Heiden!
Do you have any idea how I feel?
How could you, who's never
been hurt, understand me?
Instead of offering your help,
do you really have to crush
my last bit of self-respect?
This could be the end for me.
This could be my last chance.
So what I'm asking is...
O K. I'll help you.
This will be different.
It will be unlike any
love you had before.
You think you're ready for that?
If I can gain back my lost
self-respect, I don't care.
Robin!
It's been a while. I missed you.
I trust you've been well?
- When did you arrive?
- Just now.
And who is this lovely Pocahontas?
You are not cheating on me
behind my back, are you?
Say hello. This is Jennifer Cohen.
She's a member
of the U.S survey team,
head of the U.S office.
She is also very old friend of mine.
This is June.
She is an analyst here with
the local team in Korea.
- It's nice to meet you.
- It's nice to meet you, too.
Well... I'll just be going. Bye.
Bye.
Do you like her?
Did you eat?
Not yet. Are you taking me out?
Come on.
Love is a game ofpower,
a manipulation of emotions.
Are you ready?
yes!
Jun-hyoung
Don 't answer it.
you make him call three times.
If he really wants to see you,
he will call until you answer.
Pay attention!
You choose, he pays.
You shouldn't do that.
Smiles, compliments, gestures.
You are only feeding his ego.
One more thing.
If he already has a big ego, you need
to deflate it with some shock therapy.
No, definitely not!
Having sex with him now
is like handing him the game.
If you want to be treated
like a queen, then act like one.
How you train
your opponent is up to you.
- Let me do it.
- Stay still, you squirt.
I'll do it, Grandpa.
I'll put them on you.
Hello?
Well anyway, I'm looking forward
to seeing you next week.
One week from now?
Why?
Do you need more time on Maeda?
No, No. Should have no problems
finalizing Maeda by then. O K.
Good. Well, good luck with
the rest ofyour pro-jects.
Take care ofyourself, OK?
- O K. See you soon.
- See ya.
Hello?
Robin! Congratulations.
I heard you've been
appointed as managing director.
Thanks!
I think you've changed.
What? Is that so unusual?
People always change.
Don't change too much.
Actually, I liked the old you better.
What was the 'old me' like?
You were my pleasure bunny.
I wish you could remain
my pleasure bunny forever.
He was right. I was wrong.
What?
I don't know a thing about love.
Do you think I'm still the way I was?
Huh?
It's been fun.
To commemorate our separation,
I'll pay the bill.
Bye.
Hey, Kim Min-june!
Huh, Kim Min-june?
From now on, call me big sister!
And you pay the bill!
What's wrong?
Trouble with your boyfriend again?
I just feel confused.
I guess manipulating people
isn't that fun.
It's tiring, and kind of hard.
No pain no gain, right?
I'm curious.
What if, in manipulating people,
we lose the pleasure
of an honest conversation?
Why use manipulation if we
can't discover one's true feelings?
Have you been happy
in that sort of relationship?
The funny thing is,
after all that's happened,
I still miss the old me.
Instead of calculating,
I want to be honest.
Instead of receiving,
I want to give.
Instead of hiding,
to let out all my feelings...
Gosh, men are right.
It's all my fault that
things turned out this way.
I'm really hopeless.
You know, it's not your fault.
They just weren't
the right men for you.
What?
Have you ever heard someone say
what you really wanted to hear?
Well. You mean when I make deals?
Looks like it's going to rain.
We should go back to the hotel.
I think I'd better just go home today.
I have an umbrella in my room.
I think you should take it.
No, I'll leave from here.
What the hell are you doing?
Are you trying get yourself killed?
You cross the road, you look first.
You're gonna give me a heart attack.
Is that what you want, huh?
If you took the taxi,
why is your hair so wet?
What on earth is up with you?
Dad, I think my head is messed up.
What?
Some guy completely blew up at me,
but it felt like he said he loves me.
He was screaming at me,
but it sounded like a sweet whisper.
What's wrong with me?
What's wrong?
You're in love with him, that's all.
No, Dad. I'm not in love with him.
I don't like him.
Yeah? Then I guess
he's in love with you.
No, that can't be it, either.
How do you know?
Have you asked him?
I haven't,
but anyway it can't be true.
He's too cold to me.
You silly girl.
Words do not
always express one's feelings.
Your mom says my face
makes her sick,
but do you believe it?
You have to read the eyes!
People can lie with words,
but not with their eyes.
- You look good.
- Thank you.
Yeah. Oh. Hold this, doorbell.
Don't drink that, don't drink it.
Hi, Pocahontas. We meet again.
Hi.
Did Robin invite you?
I'm sorry. Please, come in.
We just started.
I'm just...
Robin just went down
to the lobby for a minute.
He will be right back.
Cheers to Robin,
because he's going away,
and we're not going to
see him for a very long time.
I can't believe he is leaving.
He is leaving?
What do you mean?
Robin didn't tell you?
He's been appointed to head the
U.S. office. He's leaving next week.
Excuse me.
Sure.
She's pretty cute, huh?
You can't be serious.
Gentlemen.
- Robin.
- How are you doing?
I am great. How are you?
Did you guys get some food?
Excuse me.
Jen. Don't do this right now.
Do you know how humiliating
this is for me to say?
Is this what I've worked so hard
for as the corporate spy?
Please tell me how
she qualifies while I don't!
I don't know the what the hell
are you talking about.
You're not thinking of taking that
woman back to the States, are you?
That woman is just someone
I work with,
nothing else.
Min-june.
When did you come?
A little while ago.
Why are you leaving?
Didn't you come to see me?
I came here to tell you something.
What's that?
I am getting married.
I wanted to tell you.
It's all because of you.
Thanks for your help.
Go on back in. Bye.
Yoon-mi, cheer up.
Everything will work out.
Mitsuyoshi is in Seoul to close
this deal. So just be prepared.
Yes sir, I see.
Yes?
You know Robin and I have been
friends for very long time.
Why are you telling me this?
I've known Robin
for more than 10 years.
And I've been there for him
when he's been sad,
and when he's been happy.
And you may not know this, but it's
a very important time for Robin now.
Has he ever told you
about his first love?
No. I am not interested.
So I don't think you should tell me.
Really?
So you haven't seen his scar yet?
Scar?
Robin's chest.
It's a bullet wound
from the first woman he ever loved.
What?
He couldn't let her go
for up to a year
even though she'd left him
for another man.
It took a bullet wound
for him to accept it.
As head of the project,
I would like to extend my appreciation
for the agreement our two companies
were able to settle.
We are especially honored
by Mr. Mitsuyoshi's...
One second.
Please, feel free to speak.
You have missing out
on letting us know
of a very important factor
in this transaction.
According to this final contract,
the company name will be changed.
Pardon my interruption,
Mr. Mitsuyoshi.
But I'm simply acting
on my right
and my privilege as one
who is buying your company.
Is that so?
Well, this may be a late notice.
But I would like to act
on my rights as the seller, too.
Let's call this deal off.
What are you talking about?
Changing the name of the company
is like changing
the names of all the employees.
I can't let this happen.
Do you actually think there'll be
another firm interested
in taking over your company
for the price we've offered?
Are you insulting me
and my company?
Just a moment, please.
I am sorry.
Let's all calm down and
take a short break, shall we?
I can't believe this.
How can this happen, Sir?
I didn't even see this clause.
I knew it would cause delays in
finalizing the deal,
so I put it off until today.
The situation is very bad,
why don't we take it out?
If we take out that clause now,
there is no point taking over Maeda.
What's your reason?
Why do we have to change
the name of the company?
Min-june, watch yourself!
This is an extremely important issue
to Japanese businessmen.
It's the company my grandfather
worked for... his whole life.
What?
The uniform in my room
is my grandfather's.
Wait.
Please wait.
I am afraid the negotiation is over.
We'll get back to you
next week with our decision.
I understand, but...
I have a story that I must tell
Mr. Mitsuyoshi and everyone.
Mr. Mitsuyoshi. Do you remember
the uniform in that picture?
That uniform is 50 years old.
I'm sure you remember it,
Mr. Mitsuyoshi.
I am sure you remember
the young men,
tending to the machines
wearing that uniform.
One of the young men
who wore that uniform
has so much pride
in this company and the uniform.
He worked on the same job
for 30 years, and even when
he overworked himself to his death
he never took this uniform off.
When he passed away,
he left this uniform behind.
That's when the boy
promised his grandfather
that he would print the
old man's name on the uniform.
That grandson is waiting for all
of you just outside the door.
Honorable Mr. Chairman
and the board of directors.
Won't you please help that
grandson to keep his promise?
So that's what happened.
However, changing the name of the
company is beyond my power.
But I can promise you this.
I will call a board meeting
regarding on this matter,
and I will act on my rights
as the chief executive.
But you realize that this is
really the responsibility for you
and this lady's to
persuade the Board
don't you?
Yes, sir!
You have an
excellent intuition with people.
You have a great lady working for you.
I can't thank you enough for helping me
to keep my promise to my grandfather.
I'll accept your thanks later.
Nothing is certain
until the contract is signed.
Wait!
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
What?
If I've ever hurt you in anyway.
I am truly sorry.
I sincerely mean that.
You've brought me
nothing but good fortune.
You're more than worthy
of any man's love.
You're... you're more beautiful than
any woman I've ever met in my life.
I just...
I just wanted to say that before I leave.
You jerk!
Since when did you start liking me?
From the first day I met you.
I saw that lipstick mark,
and I wanted to kiss you.
Really?
That night, I knew it.
The kind of love I had
always dreamed of really exists.
I am Min-june's father.
You love... my...
Dad, he understands Korean.
Huh?
- Really?
- Is that so? Gosh...
Son, what I want to ask is...
...Sir!
Sir, do you love my daughter?
Yes, sir!
He said yes.
So the reason you are visiting us
is because you want
to marry my daughter?
No, it's not that.
I do love Min-june,
it's just that I have no intention
of marrying her...just yet.
He said he loves her,
but he doesn't want to marry her.
What the hell is that
supposed to mean?
- Get out!
- Honey, wait!
Get out, you mannerless brat!
- Dad!
- Didn't you come to ask...?
You quit your job tomorrow!
