I know that i’m late posting this article, but please forgive me, actually it’s still holiday for me. ;)

Like other giant broadcasters, MBC and KBS, SBS, in the same time with KBS, on December 31th also held the 2011 Drama  Awards. So, to be fair, I decided to make a report of that event, too.

The Boss and the secretary from “Protect The Boss”, Ji Sung and Choi Kang Hee, trusted to be the host for that event and they did their job very well, looked fresh, entertaining, and looked good together.

Frankly, I think there’s no competition that night, because SBS was really generous,  almost the whole actors and actress got the awards with so many categories which confused me. Everyone got a candy. Maybe this is just  SBS’s way to celebrate the closing year alongside their actors and actresses. And indeed,  so many actors and actresses came to that event, they are, Lee Dong Wook, Kim Sun Ah,  Lee Yo Won, Jang Hyuk, Shin Se Kyung, Song Joong Ki, Seo Hyo Rim, Wang Ji Hye, Jae Joong, Kim Rae Won, and more.

 

For the MC, Choi Kang Hee and Ji Sung, also grabbed so many awards due to their acting on “Protect The Boss” . And I love their chemistry together in here and in drama. They also deserved to get Best Couple Award, the right choice, because we need the cute and comical couple like them.

That night absolutely belonged to the historical drama “Tree With Deep Roots.” Almost the all main casts from that drama gained the award and  the drama also got the Top Excellence Drama Award. Butt the happiest actor was Han Suk Gyu who plays as King Sejong, honored with the grand prize, Daesang Award.

On his speech after saying deeply thankful for his parents who have given everything for him, he also said thank for the people who were involved in the filming production. First the scriptwriter, second the crew/officials, and the last was the audience (the fans), the drama can be successful because of them. And last but not least, he also thanked his co-workers on “Tree With Deep Roots”.

Protect The Boss Episode 18 Summary (Final) https://kdramachoa.com/protect-the-boss-episode-18-summary-final/ https://kdramachoa.com/protect-the-boss-episode-18-summary-final/#comments Thu, 20 Oct 2011 06:47:06 +0000 http://kdramachoa.com/?p=14275

What Ji Heon just did was causing another chaotic situation in the company.
But he took Eun Seol for an escape. He tried to fix his relationship with her.
Eun Seol said he should say it all wasn’t true about her as the informant and now still dating him.
“I WAS dating you. It should be in the past tense.”
Ji Heon had Moo Won to take care of the problem in the office, so he had nothing to worry about…even facing Eun Seol.
“I didn’t say anything wrong, nor a lie. Unless you reveal who’s the real informant, no one will believe you. So just say it’s true that you’re the informant, don’t you think it’s cool? And for our dating…I never stop dating you, even for once. We ARE dating, but now we’re pretending that we are not dating.”

Meanwhile back in the office, everyone of course suspected Madam Shin as the person behind the chaotic to make Ji Heon’s image turned bad again because she’s after the permanent position as Chairman.
Moo Won warned her and yes it happened.
Whe she held the board meeting to discuss the matter, Chairman Cha burst in and assumed it’s her doing right away.
Even the grandmother thought it was her too and that made her called Madam Shin angryly and told her to step down the chairman position right away.

Madam Shin was mad and accused MAdam Hwang who was behind it all because she wanted to get a revenge because MAdam Shin broke up their friendship at first.
The two madams ended up having a girls’ fight of pulling each other’s hair.
This scene was hillarious that I didn’t even see it coming. I have to give the writer and director a two thumbs up for this idea of having two old ladies pulling each other’s hair.
thankfully Na Yoon came and called Moo Won.

Moo Won sending his crying mother home and told her to get some sleep right away to save her skin.
“Aren’t you going in too?”
“There’s another lady who’s crying other than you, mom.”
“I told you that you cannot be with Na Yoon!”

But Moo Won went consoling Na Yoon. He told her not to worry because her mother said she’d prefer death other than,letting her marry Moo Won.
Moo Won continued, “You said even during the time of war there was love. And we’re in the middle of that kind of war and we can still continue doing what we’ve always done.”

Chairman Cha summoned both Ji Heon and Eun Seol home.
He scolded Ji Heon for not keeping his promise. Ji Heon said he did, but it went just as far as getting back to the headquarter office, not to be the Chairman.
“Is it because of Noh Eun Seol? Did she ask you to give up everything?”
“No. And I was the one chasing her because she was mad at me.”
“So you’re chasing a girl who doesn’t like you?”
“No, Chairman, I like him,” Eun Seol made a surprising confession. “And I did tell him to do whatever he wants, that’s probably why he consider to do this.”
Then Chairman kicked them both out of his house.

They went to Eun Seol’s place and that made the tired-of-your-pretense,-Eun Seol-and-Ji Heon! Myeong Ran to sleep at Na Yoon’s place.
Na Yoon and Moo Won was being romantic.
She asked him to sing her a lullaby.. He was in the middle of his singing when he suddenly read another shocking news on the internet.

But that night there’s an update news about Eun Seol’s past.
The news were getting nasty,talking about Eun Seol being school’s punk, trouble maker and even saying that she act like a gangster in the office bullying the other collegues.
From all the news, only one thing that made Ji Heon disappointed on her: her high-school’s hairstyle. :D
So that night Ji Heon slept over at Eun Seol’s place.

The next day Ji Heon had to face the board director.
They asked him to step down his position. But it’s not that bad because Ji Heon remained the biggest stakeholder. And most of all, he’s happy.

But it’s kind of making Eun Seol as the company’s biggest enemy.
Everyone couldn’t help staring Eun Seol and gossiping about her.
Even Na Yoon had to step forward facing a couple of secretaries who were staring at and speaking bad about Eun Seol.
The war seemed to be tiring for the girls, and that inspired her, “I think we need to go on vacation together this weekend.”

They went for a double date that weekend.It’s so fun watching the pairs hanging out together, leaving all the burdens behind for awhile.
They went cycling, taking funny pictures, and having nice dinner together.

This time it was Madam Hwang and Madam Shin’s turn to be on the spotlight.
Someone leak the DN Group’s slush fund information to the press, but this time Madam Hwang was dragged along because the slush fund was related to her gallery business.

The leak was none other than Manager Park. He did that to ask forgiveness from the Chairman.

Chairman Cha was busy with his community service, but Eun Seol came right after Manager Park.
She also begged for forgiveness and asked for his blessing for her relationship with Ji Heon.
Chairman Cha kept saying no and sending her away, but it wasn’t Noh Eun Seol if she gave up easily.
She tried many ways to get Chairman Cha’s approval.

The two madams were also doing community service. Na Yoon was sticking at them asking for approval for her relationship with Moo Won.
It’s funny that one minute she’s saying “I will treat Moo Won nicely” to Madam Shin and another minute saying, “Moo Won is a good man, mother,” to MAdam Hwang.

Meanwhile Ji Heon was trying his best to beg for approval from Eun Seol’s father.
He’s having a hard time with Mr. Noh. Eun Seol came to help him begging.
At first she did it in a cool way that she challenged her father for a battle, but then…she ended up whining like a little girl “Daddyyyyy…” :lol:

Na Yoon was struggling when Moo Won said he’d come over.
She had to clean up her messy place and then tried to cook some food, but she ended up making another mess in the kitchen.
Moo Won came and saw what happen in the kitchen. It was so heart-melting when hearing the comment coming out his mouth was, “Did you hurt yourself?”
The innocent Na Yoon just startled and said no. “It’s fine, then,” said Moo Won.
Then he showed off his secret hobby to his girlfriend: cooking.
It was quite a jaw dropping scene :D.

I think the two couples are very interesting. In Ji Heon-Eun Seol side, it was more likely to say that Ji Heon was the one who gets so lucky to have Eun Seol.
This woman changed his life in a very positive way. And above all, she was a superhero woman.
In Na Yoon-Moo Won side, of course it was Na Yoon who gets so lucky to have an almost perfect man like Moo Neu Nim.
He’s unquestionably handsome, wealthy, smart, built body, and voila! he’s also good in cooking!
God, if only there’re more Moo-Won-like men out there, please bring them to us… :D

Ji Heon had a serious father and son conversation with Chairman Cha. He asked like an adult to his father to give him a permission to marry Eun Seol.
He gave some time for his father to think everything over, saying that he would only lose to his son at the end eventually.
Chairman Cha had a thought, and at the end he finally gave his blessing.
It was a touching moment when Ji Heon hugged his father tightly and Chairman Cha hugged him back.
“Thank you, father.”

Ji Heon had a romanctic dinner with Eun Seol, planning to propose her.
Eun Seol right guessed it and it upset Ji Heon, but he proceed on his plan.
He made the 3 times combo of saying “I love you, Noh Eun Seol” : the tea cup, the nut and the dooly doll.

But it didn’t end there. Ji Heon sang her a song to express his love to her.
The proposal went right after he sang.

“Noh Eun Seol, when we marry, let’s do it for love.”
And then there went the rings and Ji Heon asked for the answer.
“Isn’t it enough?” Eun Seol got up, kissed Ji Heon and then hugged him.
“It’s more than enough,” said Ji Heon.

And then the wedding day came.
A pickpocket was making a scene by grabbing Na Yoon’s purse.
But Eun Seol stopped the pickpocket by kicking a soda can towards him. Her biggest concern was their wedding rings.
It turned out that the wedding rings were no where to be found because Na Yoon forgot to bring them.

They held a simple but beautiful wedding ceremony.

Eun Seol narrated: “What will tomorrow look like for us?”
Then we could see the progress of Manager Jang’s blind date that would probably work out at last.

Ji Heon narrated: “Some of us will face an unexpected event.”
We could see Manager Park’s life after DN Group. He ran a small but successful bakery.
And the part-timer boy looked fine with his life.
“Some others will leave their destructive lives.”

Myeong Ran was going abroad for a wrestling championship. She avoid Na Yoon and Eun Seol following her to the airport because it was going to be very hard for her.
So she just had Secretary Kim to drive her there.

The two madams are still good friends and planning for being greddy by discussing the way to make Moo Won as the Chairman.
Meanwhile the grandmother enjoyed her life like she always had.
And finally Chairman Cha was back to the office as the company’s chairman.

All those happiness pictures walked along Ji Heon and Eun Seol walking on the altar.
They finally took their vows, but they had to subtitute their wedding rings with a decorative small wires…thanks to Na Yoon.

Ji Heon ran a happy successful life outside DN Group. He had been giving lectures in universities about how to be a good manager.
In a TV interview he said that the key was to find a good person to love. This way some one would think to do the best to make his/her partner love what he/she does and wont be embarassed by his/her wrongdoings in business.
He added, “I was so lucky to have met such a great person.”

Meanwhile Na Yoon and Moo Won are joyful as always.
It’s so funny when Na Yoon asked Moo Won when they’re getting married. “I’ve grown up a lot,” she said.
But then Moo Won set a certain height for Na Yoon’s height to meet that requirement to let them get married.
This couple is so funny.

And Eun Seol and Ji Heon finally wrap up their story with a beautiful ending.

Oooohhh I’m gonna miss this drama. Surely i’m going to get the dvd when they come out.
Thank you for following this summary.
I’ll see you again soon in the next project ;)

Protect The Boss Episode 17 Summary https://kdramachoa.com/protect-the-boss-episode-17-summary/ https://kdramachoa.com/protect-the-boss-episode-17-summary/#respond Tue, 18 Oct 2011 11:15:10 +0000 http://kdramachoa.com/?p=14149

After hearing the horn Ji Heon ran back to Eun Seol. “You’re not okay, aren’t you?” asked Ji Heon opening the door.
She’s trying to flee, but Ji Heon managed to persuade her to got off the truck to argue.
Ji Heon said that he regretted it all, about their break up, that he couldn’t get her out of his mind.
Eun Seol was still defending herself at first, saying that she’s okay, but finally exploded.
“Do you know how I really feel this whole time? I don’t really know how it felt when the convicts were exiled during the Joseon dynasty, but I’m feeling like them. I’m upset and scared.”
Ji Heon then hugged her and said sorry.

Ji Heon decided to help Eun Seol with her work that day.
When they finally had time to really sit down and talk calmly, Ji Heon told her that he wouldn’t give up on her.
He also said that he would take her back into the office.
Eun Seol said that she hadn’t agreed on anything yet.
Ji Heon said, “You will soon open up (your heart).”

Secreatry Jang called Eun Seol to ask for Ji Heon. He’s telling him about Chairman Cha, so Ji Heon had to leave.
“Let’s meet again here in the next 3 hours. I’ll be waiting for you,” said Ji Heon.

Meanwhile Eun Seol decided to visit Myeong Ran and Na Yoon.

Chairman Cha was actually suffered from a tumor, but it’s not a cancer yet. Ji Heon got the explanation from the doctor.
When Ji Heon met his dad he got scolded for meeting Eun Seol again at this state.
He was forbidden to meet Eun Seol for the same reason as the first time Chairman Cha told him.
But this time is getting tougher because Moo Won was taking his place and his father thought the he might not be able to rest in peace if Ji Heon couldn’t get his position back.

Eun Seol waited for Ji Heon for along time. And when he thought that he wouldn’t show up, Ji Heon finally came.
Eun Seol was upset and about to leave when Ji Heon held her and said, “Please wait for me a little more time.”
He didn’t told her what’s really going on, but he said that he had to be a good son first, so he’d return to her soon after that.
Eun Seol avoid his hugging, but Ji Heon was too sad to let Eun Seol go just like that.

Each of them run their separate lives eventually.
Eun Seol said she wouldn’t be waiting, but ended up counting the days that turn into weeks then months of the time she’s waiting for him.
But Ji Heon never showed up, not even a call.
Eun Seol was too desparate that she halucinating Ji Heon was finally there.
She beat him down by hitting and kicking…but that’s all just her imagination.
Eun Seol finally decided to move on. She quit her job and quit waiting for Ji Heon.
Meanwhile Ji Heon had been working hard as the Smart (one of the subsidiary company of DN Group) CEO.

Cha Moo Won drown himself to his works as MAnaging Director. He stayed 3 hours overtime everyday.
Na Yoon demanding his time and his confirmation of what she’s for him, but Moo Won was crazily busy…and just couldn’t put his feelings into words.

Manager Park begged for Madam Hwang to save him and gave him a much better job.
But Madam Hwang dumped him.

Then Na Yoon came to meet her. MAdam Hwang told her to stop meeting Moo Won since her realtionship with Madam Shin is breaking up.
She told Na Yoon to start blind dating with Madam Hwang’s reference, and surprisingly Na Yoon just agreed.

Na Yoon cry out like a baby with her friends. She had Eun Seol and Myeong Ran slept over.
She asked Eun Seol if she had to stop caring for Moo Won, Eun Seol said no.
And then she asked if she had stopped caring for Ji Heon, She also said no.

The next day Eun Seol got a phone call from someone who said wanted to scout her.
Eun Seol was suspecting the lady was fraud by “someone” to give her a job.
The lady said that she knew Eun Seol was Cha Ji Heon’s secretary from DN Group.
He was an infamous back then but she managed to put up with him, that’s her reason.
Then she brought her into her office, which was actually DN Group’s department store.
Eun Seol guessed it was Moo Won’s work, but the woman said it was not.
Eun Seol didn’t see it coming when it turned out to be Cha Ji Heon in front of her.

Eun Seol was very angry and tried to use violance like she always imagined.
But this time, the real Ji Heon managed to avoid her every violance attempt on him.
He said he was sorry for making her waiting too long.
Eun Seol then coldly said he was too late that she had closed her door for him.

Ji Heon tried to catch up Eun Seol. He finally told her that his father was sick and he had promised him not to get in touch with her.
That’s why he never called, even when he missed her alot. He said that he could only watched her from afar without her notice.
So part of Eun Seol’s imagination was not really imagination.
Eun Seol asked if the Chairman was fine. Ji Heon said yes.
Then Eun Seol coldly said, “You’re coming back too late. I don’t care about you anymore.”

Chairman Cha had been doing well. To pay his gratitude, he checked on his “before I die” to do list and started to make some actions.
He was planning to get Secretary Jang remarried. And he also wanted to be a good son by getting his mom a boyfriend.

Madam Shin told Moo Won that Na Yoon was having a blind date just then.
Moo Won hurriedly went to where Na Yoon was meeting the man.

Na Yoon’s blind date was a weird man. He dressed up like a punk, but surely he’s a chaebol…a weird chaebol.
This man was obnoxious and Na Yoon just couldn’t stand him, so she decided to go.
The man chased her, but Moo Won showed up just in the right time.

Na Yoon was upset because she couldn’t get what Moo Won’s thinking.
Did he really like her or not?
With that trademark smirk on his face, Moo Won said, “Why do you keep blaming me? Am I seeing another woman?”
Na Yoon said no.
“Have I done a blind dating?”
Na Yoon said no again.
“I told you I was very busy. And when I told you so, you begged me to meet, did I spare my busy time to go down meeting you?”
Na Yoon said yes.
“Is there something wrong with your brain or something? Why you still don’t get it?”

Ji Heon didn’t give up on Eun Seol. He came to Eun Seol’s part-time job and bought all chiken worth Eun Seol’s 5 hours working time to persuade Eun Seol to come back working as his secretary.
But Eun Seol stayed in her first decision.
That made Ji Heon stop? of course not. He followed Eun Seol everywhere she got a job interview.

Ji Heon talked to his father to bargain about having Eun Seol as his secretary again.
Chairman Cha went against it at first, but Ji Heon made a good point when he said “I would just stop working then.”
His father finally let him take Eun Seol back, with two conditions: he had to beat Moo Won and helped his dad got his position back.
“But Noh Eun Seol as your secretary, nothing more.”
Ji Heon smiled saying, “We’ll see.”

Eun Seol finally agreed to get back her old job as Ji Heon’s secretary.
They’re setting up boundaries where personal feelings shouldn’t be involved.
Ji Heon agreed.

Eun Seol was welcomed by her fellow secretaries and also Moo Won.
She started her day just like the old days when she had to clean her boss’ room every morning and prepared him his breakfast.
Ji Heon praised her as upgraded. “But it’s not only your hardware that needed to be upgraded, but also your software.”
“Pardon me?” asked Eun Seol.
Then a stack of papers ready for her to work on. Ji Heon made her summarized all that.

Myeong Ran helped Eun Seol that night. I like it when she said, “Do you know what, I think you two are putting on a show.”
Yeahhh, I think she’s absolutely right.

It wasn’t yet days of Eun Seol was back as Ji Heon’s secretary, a rumour suddenly spread on the media.
“Director Cha Ji Heon is dating the company’s informant secretary!”
Moo Won told his secretary to warn Eun Seol about the reporters that must have been waiting for her in front of the office.
But it’s too late. Eun Seol was already facing the hungry-for-the-breaking-news reporters.

Eun Seol kept saying no when she’s asked if it’s true that she’s the informant and she’s dating her own boss.
But then Ji Heon came and said they should talk to him instead of her.
So the reporters asked him the same questions.
To everyone suprise, Ji Heon just casually cheerful said, “That’s true. Don’t you think she’s cool? That’s alot of guts to speak up against what’s not right.Don’t you agree? That’s why I fell for her since the first sight! Boom!!”

Aaahhh, one more episode, everyone…Fighting!

Protect The Boss Episode 16 Summary https://kdramachoa.com/protect-the-boss-episode-16-summary/ https://kdramachoa.com/protect-the-boss-episode-16-summary/#respond Wed, 12 Oct 2011 03:03:05 +0000 http://kdramachoa.com/?p=13826

The heartbreaking words by Ji Heon in the previous episode of Protect The Boss made me hesitate to continue watching this episode.
But like I said before, I have to get through it to make it to the end, just like Eun Seol and Ji Heon.
Two more episodes to the final…Oohh, keep fighting everyone!

Actually Ji Heon tried to make the breaking up smoothly by giving an introduction speech.
But it was Eun Seol who cut it that way. She was just so cold and surprisingly (for Ji Heon) she just said, “Okay, I get it. I guess we really do have to end it here.”
She left just like that and it made Ji Heon very upset.
But then the two came back again to have a longer argument.
Well, Eun Seol wasn’t that cold. She told him her reason why she thought it’s time for them to give up their relationship.

Eun Seol didn’t say anything to Na Yoon and Myeong Ran.
She’s just crying while watching a documentary about penguin.

Na Yoon told Moo Won (who was already in Ji Heon’s house accompanying his mother meeting the Grandma) about Eun Seol’s strange behavior and he just got it.

He asked Ji Heon what was Eun Seol’s fault that he had to treat her this way.
Ji Heon was being cold and refused to talk to him. But that night, the poor Ji Heon was bearing the pain all by himself in a dark corner of his room.

The next day Eun Seol was ready for the transfer. She’s saying goodbye to fellow secretaries and Moo Won.
She bid a goodbye to Ji Heon’s room, recalling some sweet moments she had shared with Ji Heon in that room.
But her incidental meeting with Ji Heon in front of the elevator was awkward, but they ended up standing in their place staring to an empty wall: Ji Heon in front of the elevator and Eun Seol inside the elevator.

The board of directors held a meeting to decide who’s gonna lead the company while Chairman Cha undergoing his sentence.
The Grandmother who lead the meeting decided to let the two Cha cousins to have a fair competition.

That night the girls were helping Eun Seol packing her things.
Na Yoon was the one who cried first and asked for apology for her mom’s wrong doing.

Apparently, Eun Seol was kicked out to a the DN Group’s logistic office in a quite remote area.
There’s not much administration work to do, so she decided to go down to the labour work helping the other workers.

Na Yoon now only had Myeong Ran to hang out with.
They’re shopping for Na Yoon’s new place when suddenly Na Yoon saw Moo Won supervising the mall then she said goodbye to Myeong Ran hurriedly.
Moo Won was reluctant to play with her at first, but Na Yoon always got what she wanted.

She finally made Moo Won came by her new apartment.
She started to have a wild imagination, but Moo Won got her back to the reality.

Eun Seol’s father found a newspaper and read the news about what happened to the Chairman and his son.
He rushed to Seoul and found Myeong Ran was alone at home and his daughter was sent away to a remote area.
Chairman Cha was sitting on his wheelchair giving a public apology when Eun Seol’s dad suddenly came out of nowhere yelling at him, which made Chairman Cha provoked and stood up.
But Secretary Jang could made him calm again.

Meanwhile Ji Heon was trying to make himself busy to avoid thinking about Eun Seol everytime.
He had Secretary Kim as his secretary again, but this time their relationship was better than before.
Ji Heon made a visit to the Smart Center and the place had many sweet memories for him and Eun Seol.

Chairman Cha had to be back doing the community service.
Since the chairman’s position was empty, the board of directors had to something with it.
Chairman Cha was so shock to hear that Shin Sook Hee would replace him as the Chairman and it was his own mother’s idea.
“It’s not a Chairman,” said the Grandmother, “It’s a temporary chairman.”

Moo Won and Ji Heon’s relationship had now was getting better.
However, when it came down to one name, they’re not really getting along.
Moo Won said he’s going to meet Eun Seol and Ji Heon still suddenly being cold everytime he heard her name.

Ji Heon was giving himself sometimes alone in the office, checking on his tablet to see Eun Seol’s transfer letter.
Then he found a file which was Eun Seol’s recording when she bid goodbye to the room.
She left a message for Ji Heon to remember his training everytime he felt uneasy.
Eun Seol even sang the antheme song of their training session, the one she learned from the counseling class.
Watching the song…Ji Heon finally realized that he missed her so much. He started to cry.
He decided to go to Eun Seol’s new office.

Eun Seol got a guest. She hoped it was Ji Heon, but it actually Moo Won.
Well, it’s okay. At least she knew that she still had someone who really care for her in every kind of situation.

Ji Heon was looking for Eun Seol when he saw Moo Won saying goodbye to Eun Seol.
He watched her from a hiding place.

He was about to leave when apparently Secretary Kim had left him in purpose.
So Ji Heon had no option but to appear in front of Eun Seol.
She acted cold, but still let Ji Heon stayed overnight in her tiny simple place.

Eun Seol and Ji Heon kept acting awkward and cold when both of them were still awake.
She told Ji Heon that she didn’t care about him anymore since she’s no longer his secretary, so Ji Heon had to help himself and trying to sleep.
But when one of them closed his/her eyes, it felt like nothing really change between both of their feelings.

Eun Seol was delivering some logistic to Seoul and she’s agreed to give a lift to Ji Heon.
When they arrived in the capital city, Eun Seol still cold to Ji Heon who tried to break the ice.
He told her that he wasn’t okay with what he said (about breaking up with her) and asked her if she’s really okay with everything. Eun Seol said yes and that just upset Ji Heon .

After Ji Heon got off the car, Eun Seol started to complained herself, “What was I talking about? Fine? What is fine with everything now?”

She dropped her head and it accidently hit the horn.
Ji Heon heard it, turned around and then started to smile.

Choi Kang Hee and Marriage https://kdramachoa.com/choi-kang-hee-and-marriage/ https://kdramachoa.com/choi-kang-hee-and-marriage/#comments Tue, 11 Oct 2011 05:47:28 +0000 http://kdramachoa.com/?p=14514 Choi Kang Hee’s picture in this interview with Newsen is very provocative for me. It’s a very nice shot! It triggered me to re-post it here. I like the blue tone in this picture and the cold sense that it portrays…

Protect the Boss ended happily for everyone. I know it’s a spoiler, but most people have guessed it already i guess? :) And we’re still working on the summary.

Anyway, at the final episode, Noh Eun Seol finally got married with Cha Ji Heon in a simple but romantic wedding. In the interview with Newsen, Choi Kang Hee was asked if she had ever thought about marriage yet. She said, “There’s no thought about marriage.” She explained that the thinking about marriage in the future maybe yes, but in current time…she said she still had so many big things to do and to achieve and she didn’t think she could get all that if she had to get married in the near future.

I totally support you in this Choi Kang Hee.  ;)

The Happiness from “Protect The Boss” https://kdramachoa.com/the-happiness-from-protect-the-boss/ https://kdramachoa.com/the-happiness-from-protect-the-boss/#comments Sun, 02 Oct 2011 01:43:31 +0000 http://kdramachoa.com/?p=14245

Whoaaa..finally “Protect The Boss” ended on episode 18, and thank God, happiness for the couples (oops..spoiler here :p )

Why do we really love “Protect the Boss”? Well it’s actually not a long explanation, BUT for those who haven’t watch the drama, you better start watching it to find out the answer. I guarantee you will fall in love with this drama right away,too.

For me personally, at first I thought having the four main actors, this drama will bring just the same story like any other dramas, so cliche with love triangle or love quadrangle with the intrigues cunning and cruel, unfair competition and bla bla bla, but it turned out that I didn’t find those things in”Protect The Boss”in a cliche way. I mean, of course there’s a love triangle and quadrangle you name it…but here you’ll find the concept presented in a differently amusing way:  brighter and lighter…

Eun Seol (Choi Kang-hee) and Na Yoon (Wang Ji Hye) could prove that even if you started the relationship as rivals you could end up to be best friends. And for the bosses, Ji Heon (Ji Sung) and Moo Won (Jae Joong), bring very adorable competition where you can find men love fighting like children.

The character of each role is also very natural, reasonable and unique. There is no excessive ambition here including the chaebols, Ji Heon and Moo Won, who never be ambitious to take over the company, and neither Na Yoon. Although she comes from a wealthy family she was very happy to be friends with Myung Ran and Eun Seol. And for Eun Seol, she always faces the reality like all ordinary people should do, that’s why she’s my favorite character.

I think the director and writer are really genius and creative. They could create a lot of funny-romantic scenes, making the story really different with other dramas. There’s no overacting antagonist character in this drama and this is not a Cinderella story. The point is: this drama is too fun to be missed, too much happiness and cuteness as well.

We’ll see you in another project… :)

Protect The Boss Episode 15 Summary https://kdramachoa.com/protect-the-boss-episode-15-summary/ https://kdramachoa.com/protect-the-boss-episode-15-summary/#comments Fri, 30 Sep 2011 04:05:10 +0000 http://kdramachoa.com/?p=14146

Protect The Boss Episode 15 started backwards to the night before the prosecutors stormed into the office to investigate all the company’s document.

Ji Heon  finally found out the reason from his father after a little push.

Chairman Cha said, “I couldn’t do it cleanly. Secretary Noh found out about it and leaked the information.”

Ji Heon was very disappointed to both his father and Eun Seol.

He stayed away from his mobile that night, kind of ignoring Eun Seol calls. Actually, she’s calling from outside the gate…

That morning Eun Seol was officially kicked out of the company because there’s a box on her desk already.

She was trying to explain everything to Ji Heon when the prosecutor burst in.

The most important thing in that short explanation was that Ji Heon knew Eun Seol was framed by someone.

He would believe her, wouldn’t he?

And soon it became a national news, with Mr. Ahn held a press conference.

Ji Heon was still very upset about everything that he finally found out that his father and the highers in the company had been dealing with this matter for a long time, while he as the so called successor gonna be knew nothing about it.

However, good thing is Chairman Cha actually didn’t believe it that Eun Seol was the one who leak the information.

He kind of smell it at another person. Chairman Cha had to be hospitalized again, no matter it’s just for an acting or for real.

Everyone in the company heard the rumour about Eun Seol as the informant.

Ji Heon defended Eun Seol in front of everyone, but keep acting cold towards her.

And everyone had to face the reporters.

Na Yoon and Moo Won finally got a confirmation that Madam Hwang was the person behind the chaos.

Moo Won was desperate that he had to bear the fact that his mother was involved.

The two talked about this matter to figure out what they could do for Ji Heon and Eun Seol.

Eun Seol met Moo Won on her way out of home since Moo Won just drove Na Yoon there.

ever since he had known the truth, Moo won was awkward in front of Eun Seol. She asked him if his mother was involved.

Although Moo Won said sorry for not be able to answer that question, Eun Seol knew that her chance to clear her name to the Chairman finished there.

Ji Heon was actually downstairs, watching them speak, but he couldn’t really hear their conversation.

When Eun Seol held him from the back and asked for forgiveness, Ji Heon said she’s not the bad person in their issue, it was him.

“Because I’m the one who makes you cry.”

Ji Heon was about to leave alone, but Eun Seol came along to have a further talk.

Ji Heon kin dof knew that Eun Seol bear everything for his sake and that just made him think that he must be a very unreliable boy friend.

He told her that he wasn’t upset because of her. For him it didn’t matter whether she’s the leak or not, because he’d been through this kind of situation quite many times before.

He was upset because without Eun Seol he couldn’t be what he’s today, but the fact that he couldn’t do anything for her was the most upsetting thing.

So he asked her to stay with him to get through this, until he figured out what he really was for Eun Seol.

Then it came the day when everyone was interviewed by the prosecutor.

Everyone’s mission was to make Ji Heon innocent in front of the prosecutors and the that’s just the fact.

During her interview, Eun Seol said to the prosecutor that they just had no evidence about Ji Heon’s involvement and hoped by digging some information from her they would get a little clue that Ji Heon was involved.

But they really got nothing.

Outside the police station, while Ji Heon was facing the reporters with his head up and put on a stern face, Eun Seol saw and overheard Manager Park was talking to someone on the phone talking about Chairman Cha being interviewed.

Eun Seol followed him in a very close distance that she could recorded everything.

She busted Manager Park and threatened him.

Moo Won threatened Madam Hwang that if she kept dragging in everyone for her sin, he would blow up her secret funding and play Na Yoon’s heart.

Na Yoon overheard it and got upset. But Moo Won said she misunderstood and her being like was kind of new to him.

He finally got Na Yoon an apartment that she asked before. She felt uncomfortable to continue living with Eun Seol.

Eun Seol was breaking into the guarded vip room where Chairman Cha was hospitalized. She came to apologize, but at the same time Ji Heon was there talking about her with his father.

Eun Seol overheard from outside the room when Chairman Cha insisted Ji Heon to break up with her.

He told Ji Heon that he didn’t think Eun Seol as the traitor, but that’s not the case.

He still blamed her for causing the trouble, that she was framed by someone because she knew the things she shouldn’t.

And then Chairman Cha had a hunch that he had to give up his position and wanted Ji Heon to be his successor.

In order not to make Ji Heon more ridiculous in front of the board, he couldn’t be with Eun Seol.

Ji Heon said,”Really? Should I break up with her?” And Eun Seol left the room without hearing the rest.

The rest of Ji Heon words were these: “No, I couldn’t do that. Even if I have to break up with her, it’s gonna be for a very different reason.”

Eun Seol met Na Yoon and Moo Won at the hospital. And before she left she asked them, “Can I bully your moms for once?” I finally have something to laugh about in this bleak episode!

Moo Won said “As much as you like,” but Na Yoon asked, “But you won’t hit her, right?”

“I don’t know,” said Eun Seol’

So she really came to face the two madams by bringing along Myeong Ran.

She didn’t hit them because they’re the mothers of people she liked, but she threatened them that if they repeated the same evilness ever again, she wouldn’t care anything about whatever. She would bring them down with her streght.

Before she left, she made them promised one more thing, “You guards are not less skillful. It’s just…we’re not ordinary, so don’t fire them.”

Then Ji Heon asked for a date. Both of them knew it’s gonna be their last time together, but they enjoyed the moment.

Eun Seol showed off her beauty this time but putting make up and dress nicely.

They went picnic out of town to the horse barn.

When they’re back into town, Ji Heon brought her to the place where he always went when he’s running away from home.

He finally speak up the word, “I want to break up with you.”

Everyone was ready when Ji Heon finally said those words, even I was ready for that.

Episode 15 and 16 are very tiring. Frankly saying, I dislike them sooo much.

You know it’s the moment when conflict reach its climax. Just like in any other stories, this moment is full of emotion.

I was reluctant to watch episode 16 after episode 15, which was the first time I reluctant to watch Protect The Boss so far.

But heading to the final episodes, I know I have to get through it and pray for the best.

Protect The Boss Episode 14 https://kdramachoa.com/protect-the-boss-episode-14/ https://kdramachoa.com/protect-the-boss-episode-14/#respond Thu, 22 Sep 2011 22:22:15 +0000 http://kdramachoa.com/?p=13814

Oh I don’t really like this episode…the illegal business scandal is quite tiring. But thankfully, oh we probably only get it in this drama, we still have small things that bring big smile in our faces and even a small laughter.

We’re going to Na Yoon and Moo Won first. After Na Yoon let out her hear to Moo Won about she wanted them to get back together, Moo Won just couldn’t say anything. He didn’t reject her literally, but didn’t say yes either. Na Yoon was broken hearted and asked if it was because of Noh Eun Seol. Moo Won said no, it wasn’t. “It wasn’t because of her but still you can’t come back to me,” said Na Yoon.

She left and asked Moo Won not to follow her, but she bumped into a couple and got scolded by the boyfriend. She said sorry three times but the boyfriend just continued being harsh to her. Moo Won came to save her and made the angry boyfriend said sorry.
He offered Na Yoon a ride home and asked her to wait for him getting a car. While waiting for Moo Won, Na Yoon hid at the side of the bus shelter fixing her messy make up because of her tears. And when Moo Won came and found Na Yoon wasn’t around and also didn’t pick up his phone, he just left for thingking that Na Yoon must have left.
“Cha Moo Won, I haven’t left!” cried Na Yoon…but it’s a useless effort. :lol:

Na Yoon came home and cried for Myeong Ran. She hugged her like crying to her mom. But Myeong Ran told her that she had wet her shirt. Na Yoon suddenly stop crying and remember to do something. Since they didn’t have the eye masker, she had to use the cold spoon to avoid her eyes for being swollen in the morning. Myeong Ran said no at first, but Na Yoon beg and just put the spoons into the fridge.

Let’s go to Eun Seol and Ji Heon now. She asked Ji Heon if she really wanted it, could he drop everything away and come to her neighborhood. Without even hesitate Ji Heon said he could.
“Was it you who said ‘how would you survive? don’t come to my neighborhood’?”
Eun Seol said that it’s confusing her because sometimes she like it that Ji Heon was a CEO of a company, but sometimes she thought it’d be better if he left behind all the business and live comfortably.
“But the most important thing is how Ji Heon wants to live his life.”
Ji Heon smiled and told her not to worry about it. He would think about everything well. Then he asked her what’s going on and not to tell a lie. Ji Heon knew she still had a troubled mind. Eun Seol finally told him that there’s something bothering her mind lately and it’s difficult for her to tell him right then.
“I’ll tell you later. Just wait a little more time.”

Ji Heon than held her tight and started kissing her.

But Eun Seol burst into laughter “It’s funny because you’re trying to look cool.”
It made Ji Heon stop and upset, and he turned his body around. Remember the first time Ji Heon kissed Eun Seol and begged her for forgiveness soon after? This time Eun Seol who begged for forgiveness and let Ji Heon hold her and kissed her again.
Oooohhh….

The couple really looked like a newlywed and that just made Secretary Kim couldn’t help but to tease them. They’re on the way back to Seoul and Ji Heon was sleeping on her shoulder when she got a text from the Citizen Group guy, Ahn Yeong Sam.

The Grandmother couldn’s stop thinking of what Eun Seol told her earlier. He asked Secretary Jang, but this guy’s mouth was sealed very closely.

Chairman was curious about his mother’s strange behavior, but he soon forgot it when Secretary Jang told him that his community service was about to finish.

Madam Hwang told Madam Shin that she would bring down Cha Bong Man and the company. Her husband, Chairman Seo was interested in one of DN Group companies and he didn’t like to have a strong competition, so Chairman Seo was planning to buy the shares of DN Group. Madam Shin was so surprise with the news and felt uncomfortable, but she couldn’t say anything.

And without Madam Shin knowing, Manager Park was surely working for Madam Hwang.

Eun Seol called Ahn Yeong Sam from the payphone.
She told him not to call her directly anymore and someone was intending something very evil using her name to contact him.
She said she’d protect her bosses and the company.
“If someone call you with myname, please record everything and call me from payphone. If someone send you something under my name, please give it to me.”

Eun Seol started to write down everything. She was making a list of possible traitors, from Manager Park, Madam Shin till Madam Hwang.

Ji Heon was thinking about what Eun Seol talked about when they were bed together at the SmartWorks campus.
Then he came to his father to have a conversation. He said he hadn’t had a settle mind yet about the company’s succession, but first of all he didn’t want to embarass himself in front of Eun Seol.
Chairman Cha asked, “What are you talking about?”
Ji Heon said, “Just in case you do something illegal behind my back,how embarassing would that be for me in front of Noh Eun Seol? So you must NOT do that.”
Chairman Cha was about to argue with Ji Heon, but Ji Heon was rushed back to his room. “Anyway, I believe in you, Father.”

Na Yoon discuss her confusion about her feelings for Moo Won to Eun Seol.
Eun Seol was giving herself as an example to Na Yoon about how she didn’t attracted to Ji Heon in the first place, but after having Ji Heon kept saying he liked her over and over again, she started to like him little by little.
In a shorter and simpler words, Eun Seol tried to explain: “My point is…ahh.I didn’t know that time, but now I know.”
What she meant was Na Yoon didn’t know how much she’d hurt before so she just dumped Moo Won like she did, but now she knew she’s in misery.
Then Eun Seol said she felt sorry for Moo Won because he always did well everything by himself, so everyone tend to leave him alone, including her.

So she suggest Na Yoon to let Moo Won do something that he always wanted to do but never be able to do: playing.

The next day, Na Yoon straightly applied the strategy. After the business talk, he told Moo Won to cancel his schedule for that day to come with her.

Secretary Jang and Eun Seol was trying to figure out who’s behind the scheme of involving Citizen Group.
But they both ended suspecting each other. When they finally made an agreement that they’re on the same boat, Secretary Jang promised her that he would be the one to tell the Chairman. And Secretary Jang also avoided Eun Seol to tell anything to Ji Heon, considering Ji Heon and Chairman relationship that’s just getting better nowadays.

Chairman Cha was preparing for his last day community service which was giving a speech to some juvenile delinquency kids under rehab. He asked Eun Seol for some advices because she’s kind of an expert in this matter considering her past as a school punk.
Eun Seol told him to talk in an intimate way like talking to friends. And then she added, “Just show them how simple your life is. That you live your life honestly, unlike other chairmans who do illegal things.”
And that words just made Chairman Cha felt very uncomfortable.

Eun Seol caught Manager Park talking on the phone in a fishy gesture. She decided to tailed him to the men’s toilet, but Ji Heon got her.

He demanded her to tell him the truth about what’s going on. Eun Seol tried to lie, but it made Ji Heon more upset because he thought she treated him like an idiot. Eun Seol finally gave up, but asked him to be patient just a little more time.
She hugged him saying sorry, but he pushed her away….a little too hard that her butt bumped into the corner of the sofa that it hurt.

Ahn Yeong Sam received a package of document from an anonymous.
As soon as he opened it, he found out it’s an important evidence about DN Group’s slush fund.

Meanwhile Chairman Cha was having a hard time facing the troubled teenagers.
The kids refused to listened to his speech.
When Chairman Cha was about to explode, “Do you know who I am?? I’m Cha Bong…” He suddenly got a control of himself and calmed himself down. “Anyway, don’t live like me.”

Na Yoon brought the super busy Moo Won playing around the city. They went to eat ice cream, to an open concert and the book shop.
Then Moo Won felt impatient and asked her to sit down and speak things out.
Na Yoon just told him about the “I didn’t know then, but I know now” theory.
“I think you’re still unsure about your feelings too right now,” said Na Yoon.
“You still don’t know whether you like me or not, can or cannot live without Noh Eun Seol. Am I right? So I will keep pursuing you this way.”

Ji Heon walked Eun Seol home and then argued about Eun Seol making her wait to know the truth. During their argument, Na Yoon and Moo Won came.

The girls hurriedly went into their house, while the boys sat out side for awhile.
Ji Heon said that Moo Won should just go back to Na Yoon.
Moo Won said the timing wasn’t right.

Chairman Cha was reflecting his dark past. He imagined his relection in the mirror as the old him who came out to mock him for being the bad father to his son.

Chairman Cha finally got suspicious about Secretary Jang’s strange behaviour lately.
Secretary Jang had no option but to tell him the truth. Secretary Jang told him that Eun Seol had found out about their illegal business document.
Besides that, he also told him that Eun Seol was going to Citizen Group.

Chairman Cha failed to reach Eun Seol’s phone so he called Ji Heon.
They ended up argue and Ji Heon just cut off his phone.

Meanwhile Eun Seol met Mr. Ahn because he wanted to show her the evidence he had.
Eun Seol begged him to wait a little while, and it seemed that Mr. Ahn could tolerate that.

Eun Seol was out of the cafe ready to say goodby to Mr. Ahn in a bleak expression.
Coincidently, Ji Heon passed by the cafe on his way to work out side the office.
He stopped for a while to check on Eun Seol from afar. He saw Eun Seol and Mr. Ahn, and then left.

Eun Seol met Chairman Cha on her way back to her desk, but Chairman Cha made her came to his office to find out how much she knew about the Chairman’s illegal business.
She asked for apology, and then told him to turn himself in right away in order to lessen his punishment.
Chairman Cha asked why. Eun Seol innocently said that the documents were gonna be sent to the prosecutors soon.
Chairman Cha got this news the wrong way. He didn’t want to listen to Eun Seol’s explanation and thought that Eun Seol had betrayed him, so he was furious…sending Eun Seol away from his office.

Eun Seol passed by Manager Park on her way out of the Chairman’s office.
She dragged him into a quite place and cornered him.
“It’s you, isn’t it? If you do this for justice, I could probably forgive you a little bit. But I don’t think that’s the case here, because your wouldn’t do this to me instead. Therefore, I won’t leave you alone. If you run away, I will hunt you down.”

Back to the Chairman’s office. He said one stern sentence, “Don’t let Ji Heon know…remove Noh Eun Seol.”
Uuggh. Thankfully Secretary Jang had an excuse to make the Chairman let this matter to him.

Moo Won got the bad news from his mom. Madam Shin told him about Madam Hwan and Manager Park’s scheme, and about her own position.
Madam Shin wasn’t really agree about the plan, but she had no other choice but to be dragged along.
She told Moo Won to pretend not knowing anything. Moo Won was upset, but he couldn’t do much so far.

Moo Won came to warn Madam Hwang about her evil plan. Na Yoon was there talking to her mom about her plan getting back with Moo Won, and was very surprise about the situation.
However, Moo Won didn’t tell her anything.

Ji Heon was still made with Eun Seol for making him waiting too long to know the truth.He dropped her out of his car in the middle of the way.

Ji Heon was getting more curious and upset when he got home and found his dad telling him to break up with Eun Seol.

And the next day was a nightmare for Chairman Cha.
Prosecutors barked in his office, doing their investigation of all the company’s documents.

Protect The Boss Episode 13 Summary https://kdramachoa.com/protect-the-boss-episode-13-summary/ https://kdramachoa.com/protect-the-boss-episode-13-summary/#respond Tue, 20 Sep 2011 02:47:27 +0000 http://kdramachoa.com/?p=13582

Eun Seol accidently saw the board directors’ instruction of what to say if the prosecutors ask about illegal funding.
Chairman Cha came in when Secretary Jang was trying to convince Eun Seol that she had to forget what she just had seen.

Chairman Cha asked Eun Seol what happened with her troubled expression.
Eun Seol hesitated, but then talked about something else.
She talked about a permission to quit the chaebols’ brides education with many excuses.
she even complained that she and Ji Heon had no more time to go dating.
And when Chairman Cha asked her what else she wanted to talk about, Eun Seol was surprise. Chairman Cha kind of knew her well.She started to say something, but we never new the rest of the conversation.

Secretary Jang dragged her to have a private conversation. He told her to seal her mouth and forget everything she saw.
“You are a secretary. I’m a secretary, too. Our basic duty is to protect our bosses’ secrets.”
But Eun Seol said she hated wealthy people did illegal things to make them getting richer. It made her feel much poorer.
Secretary Jang kept convincing her that she should forget about everything she saw to protect their bosses and the company.

Manager Park overheard the conversation. Moo Won caught him snooping, but when he asked him what’s going on, Manager Park just told him that Eun Seol was scolded by Secretary Jang for something.

When Eun Seol was about to head back to work, Moo Won asked her if there’s something wrong. Eun Seol said no and then leave.
But Moo Won looked curious.

Back to the office, Eun Seol found Ji Heon was busy playing games with Secretary Kim and the part-timer.
Eun Seol was thinking to just leave, but Ji Heon hurriedly sent the boys away.
He called Eun Seol to come closer but stop at some distance.
But Eun Seol grabbed his suit and drew him closer. She held him tight…
“Fine, I was looking forward for this.” He held her back and asked, “Is there something wrong?”
Eun Seol shook her head, “Just you’re beautiful.”
“shouldn’t you say I’m cool?”
“No, I’m the cool one.”

Na Yoon felt miserable of eating all by herself, as always. She missed Moo Won and missed the time when she and her friends had dinner together.
She then gave in her lunch and went for a meeting with Moo Won.
After their business talk was over, Moo Won asked Na Yoon to ask Eun Seol what’s bothering her today.
Na Yoon was upset. She told him to stop being miserable and face the reality that he was rejected by Eun Seol.
Moo Won said he’d been trying and getting better.
“Do you like me?” he then asked Na Yoon all of the sudden.
Na Yoon lost her words for a second, but then said,”I did like you in the past.”

Back to Eun Seol and Ji Heon. The newly couple just couldn’t hold their skinship.
Ji Heon just couldn’t stand being alone in the elevator with Eun Seol but couldn’t even hold her hand because she’s worried about the cctv supervisor.
Ji Heon took her to stand under the cctv so they could do whatever without being worried someone’s watching.
He was holding her when the elevator opened and Chairman Cha got in.
Ji Heon spontaniously pushed Eun Seol away but he was pushing her too strong that she bumped into Chairman Cha :lol:

They’re so awkward that Chairman Cha got what the couple was doing and burst into laughter then left them alone.

The couple continued their romantic business but then the elevator opened up again and some employees hesitated to get in, but Ji Heon told them to just came in.
Ji Heon and Eun Seol could still hold each other’s pinky fingers.

Chairman Cha was praising Eun Seol in front of Secretary Jang when Manager Park ran into them.
Chairman Cha asked what’s wrong with him with the troubled face and herbal plaster on his neck.
He then suggest for the three of them having a short holiday together for a deep sea fishing.
Secreatry Jang emphasis the offer by saying, “Yes, it’s a nice idea. It’s peaceful and no one is around. So if something happen no one would no.”
Manager Park was trembling for fear.

Eun Seol and Ji Heon were having a real date together.
Eun Seol said that since their’s age is around the same, outside the office she could talk to him casually and drop the honorific.
Ji Heon agreed. Then they started to call each other’s name without the “-ssi”.

Ji Heon brought Eun Seol to a fancy restaurant.
Eun Seol said it’s a nice to thing to have a rich boyfriend and even nicer to think that her boyfriend’s dad was also rich.
But she told him that they should have this fancy date just this once because more than that would be just tiring.

Ji Heon then asked her if something bothered her today because he could feel that the up-spirit poop head Eun Seol was not around.
Eun Seol said nothing’s wrong with everything.

After sending Eun Seol home, Ji Heon went somewhere else instead going straight home.
In the same time, Moo Won was thinking about facing the reality that he’d been rejected by Eun Seol.
It turned out that the cousins was thinking to meet each other.
So when Moo Won just got out of his home to meet Ji Heon, his cousin just arrived there in his car.

Eun Seol and Na Yoon were both having a troubled mind.
Then Eun Seol suggest an activity to easean their mind, “A walk of fury. Do you want to come along?”
So the three of them went exercising around the neighborhood.

But when Eun Seol’s mind was a bit better, Na Yoon just kept sighing and complaining.
“Stop it!” said Myeong Ran. “What is actually happening to you?”
Na Yoon dropped down and said, “That…uuuugh…I keep thinking about Moo Won”. huh? :lol:

On the other place, the boys were also having some sport match where Moo Won always outran Ji Heon in baseball, basketball, athletic…

Then they laid down on the grass field and started to have a heart to heart conversation.
“You can’t win in everything. That’s make someone a fool. Not me, but Eun Seol, for falling for a loser like you,” said Moo Won.
“I intentionally let you win in this whole thing to win one thing, Noh Eun Seol,” said Ji Heon.
“Okay, I let you win in this whole thing and you can win the rest,” said Moo Won.
Ji Heon was so touched by Moo Won that he even held him tight, “Ohh you’re such a pretty little rascal. Thanks.”

But Moo Won told him that he’s doing this for Eun Seol. “I feel like i’m bothering her.”
Then Ji Heon remembered about Eun Seol bleak expression whenever she thought Ji Heon wasn’t looking.
Moo Won said it’s not because of him, there’s another reason.
Ji Heon asked him if he knew something. Moo Won said no.

As usual Eun Seol had to stop by the Cha residence in the morning before going to work.
But this time Chairman Cha was so nice to her that he even offered her a breakfast.

She woke Ji Heon up, but when she was drawn closer to Ji Heon, she said, “You have eyecrusts.”
Ji Heon went panic and sending Eun Seol away. He said he wanted to keep the cool image in front of her.
But Eun Seol was trying hard and even did a very cute thing, “Even your eyecrusts are cute…” But then she couldn’t stand herself and burst into laughter, “I must be crazy.”

After having breakfast with the whole family and waiting for Ji Heon to get ready, Eun seol had a talk to the Grandma.
“Chairman Cha is a good person and he’s too good to me. But Grandmother, what if even the good person actually do something really bad? And what if I somehow found out everything, what should I do?”
The grandma was about to ask her what she was talking about, but Ji Heon came out.

Ji Heon saw Secretary Jang made a gesture to Eun Seol and he got suspicious.
On their way to the office, Ji Heon asked Eun Seol to make a promise to him that she would tell him everything that bothers her mind.
“I know you could solve everything by yourself, but you should tell me anyway.”
Eun Seol just jokingly said, “Forget it!”

Madam Shin was in the beauty salon with Madam Hwang when Manager Park kept calling her.
Madam Hwang asked who was that and Madam Shin told her about the spy she’s been talking about.

Manager Park told Madam Shin that he caught the big fish that could bring Chairman Cha down, but he still wasn’t sure when to use it.
He asked Madam Shin to save his life because he had a bad feeling that Chairman Cha would kill him soon.

As soon as Madam Shin left, two guys approached Manager Park. Someone wanted to talk to him. Manager Park freaked out thinking they’re Chairman Cha’s people.
But they’re not. Madam Hwang was waiting for him in the car.

Na Yoon was told by Eun Seol that she should do her way to get Moo Won’s heart back.
So after having a meeting with Ji Heon and Moo Won and Ji Heon left them alone, Na Yoon gave Moo Won an invitation.
She wanted to watch a play together with him. Moo Won said he couldn’t promise her anything but he’d go.

Na Yoon was so happy that she burst in to Ji Heon’s office and embrace Eun Seol.
She said she was thrilled and so happy. “Should I go to the hair salon now?”
It’s funny how she was cold to Ji Heon but so excited with Eun Seol.
“You don’t need to interfere,” Na Yoon said to Ji Heon.

When Na Yoon off the office, Ji Heon ran after her to ask if her mother did something to harass Eun Seol.
Na Yoon said she didn’t know but so far nothing happen to Eun Seol but she told him that she would keep her eyes on this matter.
Then she complained about Ji Heon was making a business trip excuse to have a 2 days 1 night trip alone with Eun Seol, because Ji Heon never dared to do that when he’s dating Na Yoon.
“You seem to have grown up a lot.”

Chairman Cha was told by his collegue that there’s a rumour about his son messing around with his secretary.
That brought Chairman Cha exploded saying that his son was not a kind of kid who’s messing around with girls, and the girl wasn’t such a girl they could talk about badly.

Eun Seol suddenly received a phonecall from someone.
This man told her that he’s a from the Citizen Group…I think it’s something like an NGO that concern about people’s economy.
Eun Seol took a picture of him and record their conversation.
Eun Seol threatened him to confess to her about who’d sent him to her because she never called him like he said.

The man was actually true about him from Citizen Group that the internet had information about him, and he also said that he received a phonecall from her saying that she had an important information about a chaebol.
Eun Seol said she didn’t know anything.

Eun Seol freaked out and asked Secretary JAng if it was him who sent that guy.
Secretary Jang was more panic than her. He made sure she didn’t and wouldn’t tell anything to anyone.
But Eun Seol insisted that she would tell one day, but also tell the Chairman to stop doing the dirty things.
Secretary JAng insisted that she couldn’t do that, it’s for everyone’s sake.
But Eun Seol was so desperate that she imagined Ji Heon had to sit in the wheelchair and went through the hard situation like his father before.

Na Yoon waited for Moo Won at the teather, but he didn’t show up.
Na Yoon was so disappointed and had to watch the play herself.
Moo Won didn’t do that in purpose. He caught in a meeting and forgot his promise.

Ji Heon and Eun Seol went out of Seoul to have an inspection on the company’s campus before it opened for new students.
Earlier in the weekend, he had made Secretary Kim to pretend that after the inspection something came up to him that made him have to go back to Seoul.
He was a lame actor, but Ji Heon made him leave anyway.

Moo Won didn’t show up until the play finished, but he eventually came after everyone’s leaving.
He asked her how’s the show, but she couldn’t answer it.
He’s giggling to fact that Na Yoon felt asleep during the show.

When they came out of the studio, Moo Won asked her casually, “Seo Na Yoon, do you want to get back to me again?”
Surprisingly for Moo Won, Na Yoon said, “Yeah… Can’t I do that?”

Ji Heon and Eun Seol went to separate room just next to each other.
They’re so nervous and couldn’t even go to bed.
Then Ji Heon who made the first move by calling her to come to his room.
“I couldn’t sleep. This is a new environment for me. Don’t think anything weird. I just want you to give me massage just like before,” said Ji Heon.

Eun Seol came to Ji Heon’s room and gave him the palm massage.
Ji Heon really enjoyed it that he couldn’t stop smiling.

And then they laid on the bed in the baby-in-the-womb position.
“Is this too?” asked Eun Seol.
“This is, too,” said Ji Heon.
“Okay, then let’s stay in this position till we fall asleep.”
“And this one might work for me,” said Ji Heon. He kissed Eun Seol.

Then Eun Seol told him about the things they’re talking about long ago.
“About you going into my neighborhood…What if that’s really what I want, could you throw away everything like being the successor of the chairman to come to my neighborhood? Could you do that?”
