THE ORDINARY JACKPOT

00:01:01.887 --> 00:01:05.004 align:center
Excuse me, could you please put your seat
back in the upright position?

00:01:06.334 --> 00:01:07.334 align:center
Thank you.

00:01:42.453 --> 00:01:44.157 align:center
WELCOME TO KOREA, MANTOVA

00:02:07.931 --> 00:02:09.426 align:center
Team Leader Gong Eun-tae?

00:02:10.840 --> 00:02:11.840 align:center
Hello.

00:02:11.942 --> 00:02:15.398 align:center
I'm Martina, the head of MD at MANTOVA.

00:02:17.180 --> 00:02:18.179 align:center
Ah, yes.

00:02:18.180 --> 00:02:19.939 align:center
I'm Gong Eun-tae
from the Hongseong Sales Department.

00:02:22.038 --> 00:02:25.554 align:center
You must be surprised
to hear me speak Korean.

00:02:26.580 --> 00:02:28.560 align:center
Yes, I naturally assumed you were Italian.

00:02:29.600 --> 00:02:31.006 align:center
I am Italian.

00:02:31.007 --> 00:02:33.060 align:center
- It's been a while since I was in Korea.
- Ah.

00:02:33.150 --> 00:02:35.382 align:center
You didn't have to come
all the way to the airport.

00:02:35.473 --> 00:02:37.068 align:center
We could have just met at the office.

00:02:37.159 --> 00:02:38.526 align:center
Oh, of course I should--

00:02:38.616 --> 00:02:42.853 align:center
When you're too welcoming,
it's easy to read your intentions.

00:02:42.944 --> 00:02:44.902 align:center
How difficult is the conversation
you want to have?

00:02:47.180 --> 00:02:48.180 align:center
Let's go.

00:02:48.926 --> 00:02:53.948 align:center
I'm dying to know why
you called me all the way to Korea.

00:03:04.282 --> 00:03:09.055 align:center
EPISODE 9: INTERPRETATION OF THE PAST

00:03:10.093 --> 00:03:12.415 align:center
Assistant Manager, about MANTOVA.

00:03:12.416 --> 00:03:15.778 align:center
Their equity structure is complicated,
and they're all sole proprietorships.

00:03:15.779 --> 00:03:18.309 align:center
How can there be
absolutely no accounting records?

00:03:18.310 --> 00:03:20.384 align:center
What about the background of that Martina?

00:03:20.385 --> 00:03:23.009 align:center
- Did you check it?
- Well, about that...

00:03:25.150 --> 00:03:26.884 align:center
There's no information on her at all.

00:03:26.885 --> 00:03:27.959 align:center
Why is there no data?

00:03:27.960 --> 00:03:29.539 align:center
Has she only worked
at MANTOVA her whole life?

00:03:29.540 --> 00:03:31.452 align:center
It seems like it.

00:03:31.453 --> 00:03:34.405 align:center
Ah, damn it. Who exactly is she?

00:03:43.219 --> 00:03:45.173 align:center
Here you go, everything is ready.

00:03:46.213 --> 00:03:48.417 align:center
- Thank you, President.
- You're welcome.

00:04:04.716 --> 00:04:06.296 align:center
The Chinese market.

00:04:07.710 --> 00:04:09.030 align:center
What do you think?

00:04:11.689 --> 00:04:12.688 align:center
Well...

00:04:12.689 --> 00:04:13.718 align:center
It's not bad, but...

00:04:14.318 --> 00:04:17.562 align:center
I doubt you'd start this
just for this kind of margin.

00:04:20.519 --> 00:04:21.920 align:center
CGM has entered Korea.

00:04:24.180 --> 00:04:25.459 align:center
You should have mentioned that first.

00:04:26.639 --> 00:04:29.279 align:center
Wasn't CGM already in Korea as a vendor?

00:04:29.366 --> 00:04:31.394 align:center
They are establishing a branch in Korea

00:04:31.482 --> 00:04:34.392 align:center
and planning to control
the brand directly.

00:04:34.479 --> 00:04:38.359 align:center
Of course, they aren't just looking
at the Korean market.

00:04:38.447 --> 00:04:43.164 align:center
They want to use Korea as a logistics hub
to enter China while avoiding tariffs.

00:04:44.001 --> 00:04:48.850 align:center
So you want to use MANTOVA's backing
for Hongseong to enter China first?

00:04:48.939 --> 00:04:51.692 align:center
If MANTOVA enters China first,

00:04:51.693 --> 00:04:55.560 align:center
it'll be hard for CGM to pressure
the Korean market with capital like now.

00:05:11.000 --> 00:05:12.319 align:center
Do you have coffee at the office?

00:05:13.500 --> 00:05:18.182 align:center
We do have a machine, but
the temperature isn't great,

00:05:18.183 --> 00:05:20.100 align:center
so I brought this from a cafe I frequent.

00:05:21.788 --> 00:05:23.254 align:center
Do you know something?

00:05:23.343 --> 00:05:26.275 align:center
The soul of the maker
is reflected in the coffee.

00:05:34.004 --> 00:05:35.780 align:center
This person isn't just a merchant.

00:05:35.870 --> 00:05:38.370 align:center
This coffee wasn't made for someone else.

00:05:45.707 --> 00:05:47.238 align:center
Team Leader Gong,

00:05:47.913 --> 00:05:51.648 align:center
I don't want to fight with CGM.
They're a bit...

00:05:51.739 --> 00:05:53.179 align:center
dirty.

00:05:53.270 --> 00:05:55.829 align:center
Then do you not mind
if CGM monopolizes the Chinese market?

00:05:57.685 --> 00:06:03.840 align:center
A Bible parable tells of workers starting
in the morning and in the evening.

00:06:03.939 --> 00:06:06.772 align:center
Have you heard of it?

00:06:06.870 --> 00:06:07.869 align:center
Ah, yes.

00:06:07.870 --> 00:06:11.938 align:center
You mean the story where the master pays
both workers the exact same wage?

00:06:12.623 --> 00:06:14.508 align:center
There would be complaints.

00:06:14.594 --> 00:06:17.163 align:center
Because they worked different hours
but received the same pay.

00:06:17.849 --> 00:06:21.104 align:center
When the morning worker complained,
the master said,

00:06:21.790 --> 00:06:25.050 align:center
"I already gave you what I promised,
so why are you complaining?"

00:06:27.370 --> 00:06:30.490 align:center
We are already doing our given work
and receiving our given compensation.

00:06:30.578 --> 00:06:36.275 align:center
It doesn't matter to us where CGM expands
or how much they earn.

00:06:37.076 --> 00:06:40.369 align:center
Then what if the evening worker

00:06:40.457 --> 00:06:43.796 align:center
takes all the wages of the morning worker?
Would you still not mind?

00:06:45.041 --> 00:06:49.491 align:center
Currently, over 60 to 70% of the people
buying goods from MANTOVA

00:06:49.581 --> 00:06:52.384 align:center
are likely from Korea, China,
Japan, and East Asia.

00:06:52.473 --> 00:06:55.321 align:center
And among them, the proportion from China
is overwhelmingly high.

00:06:55.410 --> 00:06:59.089 align:center
If CGM sets up a warehouse in China,

00:06:59.090 --> 00:07:03.161 align:center
would people in Guangzhou and Yiwu
have any reason to trade with MANTOVA?

00:07:03.162 --> 00:07:06.998 align:center
If CGM enters China, MANTOVA
won't just lose the Chinese market,

00:07:06.999 --> 00:07:09.149 align:center
you will lose
the entire East Asian market.

00:07:11.246 --> 00:07:15.535 align:center
How much of our business
do you think retail merchants account for?

00:07:16.490 --> 00:07:18.670 align:center
That is not enough of a reason
for us to go to war with CGM.

00:07:19.670 --> 00:07:21.129 align:center
The war has already begun.

00:07:22.390 --> 00:07:25.809 align:center
We are simply asking MANTOVA
to join the fight.

00:07:28.250 --> 00:07:30.818 align:center
I think I am going to need some time
to think about this.

00:07:30.904 --> 00:07:33.429 align:center
Yes, of course we should give you time.

00:07:33.430 --> 00:07:37.210 align:center
But could we get a rough idea
of the deadline?

00:07:37.211 --> 00:07:40.269 align:center
It won't take long.
I will decide while I am in Korea.

00:07:40.355 --> 00:07:44.985 align:center
Instead, please assign someone to me
while I am here.

00:07:45.072 --> 00:07:48.143 align:center
It's been a while since I was in Korea,
so I'd like to look around.

00:07:48.230 --> 00:07:49.389 align:center
I will escort you.

00:07:49.480 --> 00:07:51.307 align:center
No, I want the youngest.

00:07:52.449 --> 00:07:53.896 align:center
If we end up working together,

00:07:53.897 --> 00:07:56.909 align:center
wouldn't we be working a lot
with the youngest staff at Hongseong?

00:07:56.910 --> 00:07:59.136 align:center
Since this is a business
we have to look at long-term.

00:07:59.223 --> 00:08:01.964 align:center
You two will just get promoted
and move into management.

00:08:11.988 --> 00:08:14.644 align:center
Ji-hye, you will need to go
do some escorting.

00:08:14.730 --> 00:08:16.669 align:center
What? Me-- me?

00:08:16.670 --> 00:08:20.348 align:center
I will explain the details later,
so request a vehicle first.

00:08:20.349 --> 00:08:21.430 align:center
Oh, okay.

00:08:23.685 --> 00:08:26.200 align:center
- You aren't going, Team Leader?
- Ah, I don't know.

00:08:26.287 --> 00:08:28.369 align:center
Martina or whatever her name is,
I can't get through to her.

00:08:28.456 --> 00:08:30.017 align:center
I mean, I can't figure out
what she's thinking.

00:08:38.040 --> 00:08:41.380 align:center
CGM

00:08:41.467 --> 00:08:43.462 align:center
CGM KOREA BRANCH MANAGER JEONG SEON-HYEOK

00:08:43.549 --> 00:08:44.549 align:center
Yes.

00:08:46.607 --> 00:08:47.923 align:center
CEO.

00:08:55.126 --> 00:08:56.402 align:center
INCOMING CALL: HONGSEONG TL JEONG

00:09:12.084 --> 00:09:13.155 align:center
INCOMING CALL: BELMORE'S KIM SUN-UK

00:09:14.389 --> 00:09:17.517 align:center
- Yes, Senior Managing Director.
- Oh, I missed your call.

00:09:17.518 --> 00:09:18.600 align:center
Oh, it's fine.

00:09:18.719 --> 00:09:20.741 align:center
You called about the store, right?

00:09:20.860 --> 00:09:21.860 align:center
Ah, yes.

00:09:21.950 --> 00:09:24.848 align:center
I just don't quite understand why
the commission suddenly went up.

00:09:24.939 --> 00:09:26.240 align:center
Yeah, well, I just heard about it too.

00:09:26.336 --> 00:09:28.963 align:center
I guess the company decided
to do it that way.

00:09:29.061 --> 00:09:30.375 align:center
Senior Managing Director.

00:09:30.471 --> 00:09:33.002 align:center
Didn't Hongseong pull out
without accepting the 20 percent?

00:09:33.100 --> 00:09:34.139 align:center
Then you should give it to us at 20.

00:09:34.225 --> 00:09:37.456 align:center
With Hongseong out of the picture,
22 is hard for us to accept as well.

00:09:37.542 --> 00:09:39.179 align:center
Hmm, is that so?

00:09:39.266 --> 00:09:43.918 align:center
Originally, if Hongseong accepted 20,
we were going to go up to 22.

00:09:44.004 --> 00:09:46.890 align:center
Exactly. That is if Hongseong accepted it.

00:09:46.977 --> 00:09:48.829 align:center
Just pretend Hongseong accepted it.

00:09:49.475 --> 00:09:51.026 align:center
Come on, Senior Managing Director.

00:09:51.112 --> 00:09:52.619 align:center
Ah, I...

00:09:52.706 --> 00:09:54.815 align:center
- No, it's just, well...
- CEO Jeong.

00:09:54.816 --> 00:09:55.815 align:center
Yes.

00:09:55.816 --> 00:09:58.608 align:center
Don't feel upset
and think about it carefully.

00:09:58.694 --> 00:10:02.355 align:center
We also abandoned a stable partner
like Hongseong

00:10:02.442 --> 00:10:05.113 align:center
and joined hands with you.

00:10:05.199 --> 00:10:08.939 align:center
This business might look complicated,
but it is simpler than you think.

00:10:09.030 --> 00:10:11.409 align:center
We push for it
because we think it will work.

00:10:11.502 --> 00:10:15.528 align:center
And if you think it won't work,
you just don't have to accept it.

00:10:15.620 --> 00:10:17.639 align:center
If not accepting it, tell me now.

00:10:18.039 --> 00:10:19.039 align:center
Don't say something else later.

00:10:39.950 --> 00:10:40.949 align:center
Yes.

00:10:40.950 --> 00:10:41.949 align:center
I will do it at 22.

00:10:41.950 --> 00:10:44.499 align:center
Instead, I would appreciate it
if you froze the general line.

00:10:44.500 --> 00:10:46.986 align:center
Hmm, no can do. Keep it the same.

00:10:52.992 --> 00:10:54.293 align:center
Yes. Understood.

00:10:54.294 --> 00:10:56.010 align:center
- Let's do that.
- Okay, I'm hanging up.

00:11:02.343 --> 00:11:04.028 align:center
Ah! Fuck, seriously, you son of a...

00:11:04.029 --> 00:11:05.088 align:center
Ah, this bastard, seriously...

00:11:08.356 --> 00:11:09.356 align:center
Hey, Team Leader Ju.

00:11:09.533 --> 00:11:12.343 align:center
- Yes.
- I must find what Hongseong is plotting.

00:11:12.344 --> 00:11:14.977 align:center
Do you think Hongseong
has a separate strategy?

00:11:14.978 --> 00:11:17.314 align:center
I think they're just using the money
they made from the penalty fees

00:11:17.315 --> 00:11:20.511 align:center
- to hold out as long as they can.
- No, Hongseong won't back down like this.

00:11:21.043 --> 00:11:22.404 align:center
They definitely have something
up their sleeve.

00:11:22.405 --> 00:11:24.949 align:center
If we get beaten by Hongseong
in this situation...

00:11:24.950 --> 00:11:27.490 align:center
We'll have to shut everything down here.
You know what I mean?

00:11:28.269 --> 00:11:29.529 align:center
Find out what Hongseong is thinking,
no matter what.

00:11:29.659 --> 00:11:32.898 align:center
Got it?

00:11:33.029 --> 00:11:34.590 align:center
Yes, understood.

00:11:47.328 --> 00:11:48.968 align:center
Ah.

00:11:55.360 --> 00:11:57.038 align:center
Hello. I am Lee Ji-hye.

00:11:57.039 --> 00:12:00.053 align:center
She will be assisting you
during your stay in Korea.

00:12:00.139 --> 00:12:01.964 align:center
Her Italian is also excellent.

00:12:17.549 --> 00:12:18.549 align:center
Let's go.

00:12:19.874 --> 00:12:21.359 align:center
Ah.

00:12:29.950 --> 00:12:31.670 align:center
Contact me immediately
if there are any problems.

00:12:32.230 --> 00:12:33.229 align:center
I will be on standby.

00:12:33.230 --> 00:12:34.810 align:center
Yes, Team Leader.

00:13:04.100 --> 00:13:07.320 align:center
There is somewhere I would like to stop by
for a moment. Is that all right?

00:13:07.940 --> 00:13:09.180 align:center
Yes, where would you like to go?

00:13:10.109 --> 00:13:13.278 align:center
I am curious about where you bought
the clothes you are wearing.

00:13:14.546 --> 00:13:15.688 align:center
My clothes?

00:13:41.469 --> 00:13:43.411 align:center
There are no price tags?

00:13:43.412 --> 00:13:45.863 align:center
Excuse me, how much is this?

00:13:45.949 --> 00:13:47.529 align:center
Just give me 50,000 won for that.

00:13:48.549 --> 00:13:49.809 align:center
Don't tell anyone else.

00:13:51.129 --> 00:13:52.870 align:center
Fifty thousand won, thirty euros.

00:13:54.829 --> 00:13:56.229 align:center
Did you buy those clothes here?

00:13:57.729 --> 00:13:59.370 align:center
Yes, they have a wide variety of clothes.

00:13:59.458 --> 00:14:03.757 align:center
Whenever a fashion show was held
in Milan, Paris, London, or New York,

00:14:03.845 --> 00:14:06.460 align:center
the exact same products
would appear here the very next day.

00:14:06.549 --> 00:14:09.068 align:center
If they didn't sell in the stores,
they were discarded within three days.

00:14:09.069 --> 00:14:10.243 align:center
It has declined a lot now, but

00:14:10.244 --> 00:14:12.285 align:center
it is still one of the places
where you can see

00:14:12.378 --> 00:14:15.490 align:center
the most trendy clothes in the world.

00:14:15.580 --> 00:14:17.937 align:center
If that were true,
it wouldn't have declined.

00:14:23.014 --> 00:14:27.320 align:center
Is there any other reason you buy here
besides the price?

00:14:29.269 --> 00:14:31.329 align:center
This is the place
that made me love clothes.

00:14:33.169 --> 00:14:35.610 align:center
Perhaps this place is the reason
I work at Hongseong.

00:14:38.409 --> 00:14:41.389 align:center
Just because the design is the same
doesn't mean it's the same clothes, right?

00:14:42.029 --> 00:14:44.090 align:center
Because details are important in clothing.

00:14:46.289 --> 00:14:48.529 align:center
There are a lot of good clothes here, too.

00:14:48.616 --> 00:14:52.623 align:center
There are also many cases
where brands buy products from here.

00:14:57.070 --> 00:14:59.250 align:center
So that is the outfit you chose?

00:15:02.750 --> 00:15:03.950 align:center
Do you not like my clothes?

00:15:05.991 --> 00:15:07.691 align:center
It borrows the design
of a 2022 Vanessa dress

00:15:07.692 --> 00:15:11.604 align:center
and a 2023 Marezi skirt.

00:15:11.690 --> 00:15:15.814 align:center
The fabric is a blend of
Chinese cotton and polyester.

00:15:15.815 --> 00:15:19.855 align:center
It was cut and made haphazardly
without considering where fabrics meet.

00:15:19.856 --> 00:15:22.151 align:center
Let's overlook the clothes.

00:15:22.152 --> 00:15:27.383 align:center
Do you even know the proper care methods
for different fabrics?

00:15:30.573 --> 00:15:32.912 align:center
A doctor is not necessarily healthy.

00:15:33.040 --> 00:15:34.560 align:center
A person who sells alcohol
does not have to be able to drink.

00:15:34.685 --> 00:15:37.416 align:center
But clothes are different.

00:15:37.540 --> 00:15:39.477 align:center
A person who sells clothes...

00:15:39.478 --> 00:15:40.779 align:center
must know clothes.

00:15:59.045 --> 00:16:00.621 align:center
Team Leader.

00:16:00.710 --> 00:16:02.930 align:center
- Yes.
- Can I ask you something?

00:16:04.190 --> 00:16:05.190 align:center
You are going to ask anyway.

00:16:06.570 --> 00:16:07.570 align:center
Why did you send Ji-hye?

00:16:08.750 --> 00:16:09.870 align:center
Because Ji-hye is the youngest.

00:16:09.969 --> 00:16:12.927 align:center
And Martina specifically
requested the youngest.

00:16:13.026 --> 00:16:15.491 align:center
You could have made an excuse
and sent Gi-tae.

00:16:15.590 --> 00:16:16.590 align:center
It is not like Martina
knows everyone on our team.

00:16:18.750 --> 00:16:19.930 align:center
I also thought Ji-hye would do a good job.

00:16:20.815 --> 00:16:23.605 align:center
Then why are you standing here
worrying so much?

00:16:26.439 --> 00:16:30.159 align:center
I would have been worried
no matter who went, not just Ji-hye.

00:16:30.247 --> 00:16:31.709 align:center
Tell me about it.

00:16:31.797 --> 00:16:33.967 align:center
I'm so worried
I can't even focus on my work.

00:16:51.103 --> 00:16:53.139 align:center
Are you looking for something?

00:16:53.229 --> 00:16:55.469 align:center
Yeah, there's a specific coffee I drink,
but I don't see it.

00:17:00.818 --> 00:17:01.940 align:center
Oh, you don't have to do this.

00:17:02.026 --> 00:17:04.356 align:center
- I can do it.
- I'm already making one.

00:17:04.443 --> 00:17:07.980 align:center
- Just let me do it.
- - Oh, come on.
- Not too much water, please.

00:17:07.981 --> 00:17:14.884 align:center
Sure, I'll make it just right. You've been
really busy lately, right?

00:17:14.971 --> 00:17:16.782 align:center
Don't even ask. It's killing me.

00:17:17.430 --> 00:17:18.430 align:center
You look like it.

00:17:19.490 --> 00:17:20.490 align:center
Haven't you heard from CGM?

00:17:22.793 --> 00:17:25.984 align:center
No, I guess I'm useless to them.

00:17:26.089 --> 00:17:27.089 align:center
What?

00:17:27.175 --> 00:17:29.424 align:center
Wait, were you going to leave
if they contacted you?

00:17:29.511 --> 00:17:31.760 align:center
Well... I probably
would have thought about it.

00:17:31.847 --> 00:17:33.837 align:center
It's not like loyalty
is going to solve anything.

00:17:33.924 --> 00:17:37.687 align:center
Honestly, if CGM takes over Korea,
we're all going to be out of a job.

00:17:39.029 --> 00:17:41.250 align:center
We won't go down that easily. Don't worry.

00:17:41.906 --> 00:17:44.248 align:center
Why? Do you know something I don't?

00:17:44.249 --> 00:17:48.068 align:center
Of course I do.
So just sit tight and wait.

00:17:49.178 --> 00:17:52.586 align:center
Oh, Team 5 booked a conference room
earlier this morning.

00:17:52.587 --> 00:17:54.470 align:center
Does it have something to do with that?

00:17:55.435 --> 00:17:57.071 align:center
Don't ask too many questions.

00:17:57.072 --> 00:18:00.975 align:center
Aw, why not?
I swear I'll keep it to myself. Please?

00:18:00.976 --> 00:18:03.285 align:center
Come on, I'm just really anxious.

00:18:24.694 --> 00:18:26.959 align:center
Would you like me to explain the menu?

00:18:26.960 --> 00:18:30.024 align:center
No. You can order for us.

00:18:30.025 --> 00:18:31.190 align:center
- We'll take a look and order.
- Okay.

00:18:36.153 --> 00:18:37.491 align:center
DONUTS, PÂTÉ, STUFFED CUCUMBER

00:18:38.138 --> 00:18:41.116 align:center
Um, is there anything in particular
you'd like to eat?

00:18:41.850 --> 00:18:43.130 align:center
Don't ask me.

00:18:44.330 --> 00:18:45.530 align:center
Order whatever you want.

00:18:46.184 --> 00:18:48.718 align:center
Oh, okay.

00:18:53.001 --> 00:18:55.622 align:center
This is the Batasiolo Barolo 2020 vintage.

00:18:55.710 --> 00:18:56.930 align:center
Is this the wine you ordered?

00:18:57.789 --> 00:18:58.789 align:center
Yes.

00:19:11.150 --> 00:19:12.150 align:center
Would you like to taste it?

00:19:12.810 --> 00:19:13.810 align:center
I'll do it.

00:19:37.869 --> 00:19:38.869 align:center
It's good.

00:19:40.329 --> 00:19:41.329 align:center
Thank you.

00:19:58.001 --> 00:19:59.835 align:center
This wine...

00:19:59.836 --> 00:20:02.223 align:center
Who recommended it to you?

00:20:02.309 --> 00:20:07.808 align:center
Oh, I chose it thinking it would pair well
based on the wines I've tried.

00:20:07.809 --> 00:20:09.344 align:center
You've tried it before?

00:20:09.345 --> 00:20:10.430 align:center
Yes.

00:20:40.051 --> 00:20:41.843 align:center
I heard you speak some Italian?

00:20:41.844 --> 00:20:43.409 align:center
Yes, I'm currently studying it.

00:20:47.349 --> 00:20:51.589 align:center
Is there a specific reason
you chose this place?

00:20:52.819 --> 00:20:55.452 align:center
They have a great wine list.

00:20:55.538 --> 00:20:58.848 align:center
I thought we should have wine
regardless of the food,

00:20:58.849 --> 00:21:01.948 align:center
and if we're having wine,
I figured we should go somewhere

00:21:01.949 --> 00:21:03.987 align:center
that serves good Italian wine.

00:21:03.988 --> 00:21:06.152 align:center
And?

00:21:06.153 --> 00:21:09.294 align:center
I also thought it should be a dish
you can't get in Italy,

00:21:09.295 --> 00:21:12.437 align:center
and since it's been a while
since you visited Korea,

00:21:12.438 --> 00:21:15.664 align:center
I thought modern Korean cuisine
would be better than traditional.

00:21:15.750 --> 00:21:17.013 align:center
That's why I chose this place.

00:21:17.014 --> 00:21:21.049 align:center
Because they serve Korean food
that pairs perfectly with good wine.

00:21:22.715 --> 00:21:25.964 align:center
- That's nice.
- I'm glad you like it.

00:21:25.965 --> 00:21:31.631 align:center
Food reveals just as much about a person

00:21:31.632 --> 00:21:34.882 align:center
as the clothes they wear.

00:21:35.882 --> 00:21:37.381 align:center
Have you figured out
what kind of person I am?

00:21:38.632 --> 00:21:43.049 align:center
Either someone who lies effortlessly,
or someone who is full of vanity.

00:21:44.757 --> 00:21:48.756 align:center
- Excuse me?
- Your salary is obvious,

00:21:48.757 --> 00:21:52.215 align:center
and for a woman who buys
and wears 30-euro clothes

00:21:52.216 --> 00:21:55.798 align:center
to have tried this kind of wine,

00:21:58.299 --> 00:22:00.440 align:center
it is just one of two things.

00:22:01.744 --> 00:22:04.513 align:center
You have never actually tried it,

00:22:04.514 --> 00:22:07.488 align:center
or you are spending beyond your means.

00:22:08.099 --> 00:22:09.099 align:center
What do you think?

00:22:11.598 --> 00:22:14.917 align:center
It seems hard to trust either one.

00:22:22.631 --> 00:22:24.052 align:center
LEE JI-HYE, ASSOCIATE, TEAM 5

00:22:28.750 --> 00:22:29.750 align:center
Yes, Ji-hye.

00:22:30.309 --> 00:22:31.890 align:center
Team Leader.

00:22:31.988 --> 00:22:33.545 align:center
How is it going?

00:22:33.643 --> 00:22:35.883 align:center
Ah, Mar...

00:22:37.929 --> 00:22:39.549 align:center
I think Martina is crazy.

00:22:39.550 --> 00:22:40.849 align:center
Is she that bad?

00:22:40.943 --> 00:22:44.359 align:center
I think she has just decided
to find fault with every little thing.

00:22:47.158 --> 00:22:50.384 align:center
How much do I have to accommodate her?

00:22:50.479 --> 00:22:53.500 align:center
Ji-hye, you know
we really need MANTOVA, right?

00:22:53.980 --> 00:22:56.519 align:center
- Yes, of course.
- But,

00:22:57.307 --> 00:22:59.119 align:center
you still do not need
to accommodate everything.

00:22:59.120 --> 00:23:02.359 align:center
If we do not have MANTOVA,
we will just find another way.

00:23:02.452 --> 00:23:03.958 align:center
No matter how desperate we are,

00:23:04.051 --> 00:23:07.438 align:center
we cannot do business with a partner
who thinks they have us by the throat.

00:23:07.532 --> 00:23:10.919 align:center
Even if it is unfair,
they have to at least pretend to be fair,

00:23:11.013 --> 00:23:13.600 align:center
and pretend to be considerate
of each other for things to work.

00:23:13.694 --> 00:23:17.410 align:center
Without at least that much hypocrisy,
we cannot work together.

00:23:19.480 --> 00:23:20.480 align:center
Then...

00:23:22.571 --> 00:23:29.057 align:center
If she makes unreasonable demands,
you do not need to accept them.

00:23:32.194 --> 00:23:37.737 align:center
Yes, Team Leader. I will do that.

00:23:37.947 --> 00:23:40.770 align:center
I will contact you again.

00:23:40.771 --> 00:23:41.780 align:center
Okay.

00:23:41.897 --> 00:23:42.897 align:center
Will-- will it be okay?

00:24:02.636 --> 00:24:05.886 align:center
Is there anything else you need
when you go into the hotel?

00:24:05.887 --> 00:24:07.250 align:center
Why are you asking me that?

00:24:07.910 --> 00:24:08.910 align:center
The person who prepared it
should take care of it.

00:24:13.597 --> 00:24:17.965 align:center
I prepared cheese and prosciutto
for you to enjoy lightly with wine,

00:24:18.057 --> 00:24:19.558 align:center
and placed them in your room.

00:24:19.649 --> 00:24:20.649 align:center
I also prepared plenty
of towels and water.

00:24:20.746 --> 00:24:23.894 align:center
I organized a list of tourist sights
and restaurants for tomorrow,

00:24:23.993 --> 00:24:26.305 align:center
and left it as a file on the table.

00:24:26.404 --> 00:24:30.290 align:center
I was just asking
if you needed anything else besides that.

00:24:31.569 --> 00:24:32.569 align:center
Do you think that will be enough?

00:24:36.150 --> 00:24:39.070 align:center
If you tell me what else you need,
I will prepare it.

00:24:40.710 --> 00:24:42.590 align:center
The current size of the market in China,

00:24:42.690 --> 00:24:46.320 align:center
the profit we will gain if we enter China,

00:24:46.420 --> 00:24:50.249 align:center
and the loss we will face
if CGM enters China.

00:24:50.350 --> 00:24:53.669 align:center
What I need is not things
like wine or towels,

00:24:53.670 --> 00:24:56.149 align:center
but materials like that, do you not think?

00:25:01.879 --> 00:25:06.105 align:center
STAY HOTEL

00:25:22.889 --> 00:25:23.889 align:center
Director!

00:25:25.325 --> 00:25:29.153 align:center
I'll contact the office and have
the materials prepared immediately.

00:25:29.250 --> 00:25:30.250 align:center
You should have done it in advance.

00:25:30.336 --> 00:25:32.112 align:center
They were already prepared.

00:25:32.198 --> 00:25:36.877 align:center
- I just failed to bring them with me.
- I am saying that is the problem.

00:25:36.963 --> 00:25:40.082 align:center
Did you think things would work out
just by catering to my mood?

00:25:40.170 --> 00:25:41.210 align:center
Is this how Hongseong works?

00:25:44.710 --> 00:25:46.319 align:center
Tomorrow...

00:25:46.320 --> 00:25:47.630 align:center
tell them to send someone else.

00:26:01.975 --> 00:26:03.231 align:center
LEE JI-HYE, ASSOCIATE, TEAM 5

00:26:08.259 --> 00:26:09.259 align:center
Yes, Ji-hye.

00:26:09.660 --> 00:26:10.660 align:center
Team Leader.

00:26:13.259 --> 00:26:14.259 align:center
I am sorry.

00:26:15.580 --> 00:26:16.580 align:center
What happened?

00:26:16.691 --> 00:26:19.927 align:center
She went into the hotel
feeling a bit offended.

00:26:20.040 --> 00:26:22.040 align:center
She told me to send someone else tomorrow.

00:26:22.134 --> 00:26:26.365 align:center
I tried my best, but I think
my preparation was a bit lacking.

00:26:27.400 --> 00:26:28.400 align:center
I am sorry.

00:26:29.460 --> 00:26:31.300 align:center
No, you have nothing to be sorry for.

00:26:31.390 --> 00:26:33.750 align:center
I am the one who sent you, Ji-hye.

00:26:33.841 --> 00:26:36.427 align:center
If the preparation was lacking,
it is my responsibility.

00:26:36.519 --> 00:26:37.519 align:center
No, it is not.

00:26:37.900 --> 00:26:39.519 align:center
I should have worked harder...

00:26:40.860 --> 00:26:41.860 align:center
I am sorry.

00:26:41.954 --> 00:26:45.847 align:center
No, you worked really hard today.
Go home and get some rest.

00:26:45.941 --> 00:26:48.504 align:center
Yes, Team Leader.

00:26:48.600 --> 00:26:49.600 align:center
I will see you tomorrow.

00:26:57.760 --> 00:27:02.424 align:center
Ah, does this mean it is all over?

00:27:05.618 --> 00:27:07.864 align:center
ASSISTANT MANAGER CHOI JU-HUI, TEAM 2

00:27:07.950 --> 00:27:09.670 align:center
Hey, Ju-hee, did you look into it?

00:27:10.390 --> 00:27:12.150 align:center
Team Leader, it is MANTOVA.

00:27:13.670 --> 00:27:14.669 align:center
MANTOVA?

00:27:14.670 --> 00:27:18.068 align:center
Yes, they think CGM will go through Korea

00:27:18.069 --> 00:27:19.413 align:center
and ultimately target China.

00:27:19.414 --> 00:27:21.429 align:center
Hongseong signed an exclusive contract
with MANTOVA

00:27:21.430 --> 00:27:24.319 align:center
so they can enter China before CGM.

00:27:24.320 --> 00:27:26.163 align:center
So Hongseong is targeting China?

00:27:26.164 --> 00:27:30.143 align:center
Yes. MANTOVA's head of MD
visited our company this morning.

00:27:30.144 --> 00:27:31.276 align:center
I am sure of it.

00:27:46.109 --> 00:27:48.149 align:center
- Hello?
- Mr. Sponza.

00:27:48.150 --> 00:27:49.977 align:center
Mr. Chung.

00:27:49.978 --> 00:27:52.188 align:center
I was actually thinking
it was about time you called.

00:27:52.189 --> 00:27:54.739 align:center
I heard the head of MD came to Korea.

00:27:55.590 --> 00:27:57.503 align:center
Are you worried
I might accept Hongseong's offer?

00:27:57.589 --> 00:28:00.029 align:center
You know. This is important to me.

00:28:00.690 --> 00:28:01.689 align:center
There is no need to worry.

00:28:01.690 --> 00:28:03.771 align:center
I do not really want
to be at odds with CGM.

00:28:06.650 --> 00:28:08.390 align:center
Have you made your decision?

00:28:09.399 --> 00:28:11.922 align:center
When thieves' territories overlap,
a fight breaks out.

00:28:13.730 --> 00:28:14.730 align:center
Okay.

00:28:15.090 --> 00:28:18.090 align:center
Then I will assume MANTOVA
has no interest in China.

00:28:18.730 --> 00:28:19.729 align:center
I will come see you later.

00:28:19.730 --> 00:28:21.188 align:center
Let's do that.

00:28:29.144 --> 00:28:31.518 align:center
BELMORE DEPARTMENT STORE

00:28:47.099 --> 00:28:48.500 align:center
You must be very busy these days.

00:28:51.001 --> 00:28:52.297 align:center
Ah, a little...

00:28:52.386 --> 00:28:54.129 align:center
Yes.

00:28:54.218 --> 00:28:55.648 align:center
Can you tell?

00:28:55.737 --> 00:28:58.686 align:center
You notice things when you run a cafe.

00:28:58.776 --> 00:29:01.411 align:center
Whether someone is busy or has free time,

00:29:01.501 --> 00:29:05.031 align:center
whether they enjoy their work
or hate it, things like that.

00:29:05.120 --> 00:29:06.120 align:center
You look busy.

00:29:07.373 --> 00:29:11.178 align:center
Doesn't it bother you to see someone
looking busy first thing in the morning?

00:29:11.268 --> 00:29:12.610 align:center
What do you mean?

00:29:12.700 --> 00:29:14.380 align:center
That is exactly why
I open the cafe in the morning.

00:29:15.880 --> 00:29:17.300 align:center
Everyone is so constructive
in the morning.

00:29:19.019 --> 00:29:20.019 align:center
Constructive...

00:29:20.480 --> 00:29:21.600 align:center
That is a good word.

00:29:21.687 --> 00:29:27.465 align:center
I thought he would have more free time,
but he is getting busier.

00:29:29.274 --> 00:29:30.377 align:center
Interesting.

00:29:31.832 --> 00:29:33.243 align:center
Keep up the good work today.

00:29:34.920 --> 00:29:35.920 align:center
Yes.

Oh, PARADI MALL hasn't come in.
Press them a little.

00:30:42.095 --> 00:30:44.914 align:center
Assistant Manager, they say the penalty
from PARADI MALL hasn't come in.

00:30:44.915 --> 00:30:45.999 align:center
I will call them.

00:30:46.000 --> 00:30:49.772 align:center
- Will you be okay?
- Me? Or PARADI MALL?

00:30:51.273 --> 00:30:52.977 align:center
HONGSEONG THUG

00:30:53.625 --> 00:30:55.004 align:center
Damn it.

00:30:58.898 --> 00:31:01.007 align:center
I am calling because the penalty fee
hasn't come in yet.

00:31:01.008 --> 00:31:02.089 align:center
The finance team--

00:31:02.177 --> 00:31:03.272 align:center
Hurry, I want to sue.

00:31:03.360 --> 00:31:05.726 align:center
- If you want to sue--
- Make the deposit and then call me.

00:31:10.240 --> 00:31:13.440 align:center
This crazy son of a bitch. Damn it.

00:31:13.527 --> 00:31:15.412 align:center
Hey, what happened to the penalty fee?

00:31:15.500 --> 00:31:17.299 align:center
Ah, the finance team
said they were sending it.

00:31:17.409 --> 00:31:21.748 align:center
Tell them to hurry up.
So I don't get calls like this.

00:31:21.859 --> 00:31:22.858 align:center
Yes, sir.

00:31:22.859 --> 00:31:25.979 align:center
I just need to tell them to wire
the penalty fee and fax CGM--

00:31:25.980 --> 00:31:27.140 align:center
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

00:31:35.149 --> 00:31:36.149 align:center
Team Leader.

TEAM LEADER JU SEON-A

00:31:51.642 --> 00:31:55.472 align:center
- Yes.
- Hongseong penalty fee firms are sorted.

00:31:55.559 --> 00:31:56.558 align:center
Good.

00:31:56.559 --> 00:32:00.135 align:center
- Send out the new contracts.
- Yes, congratulations, CEO.

00:32:00.136 --> 00:32:02.050 align:center
You are really going to hit them hard,
aren't you?

00:32:03.299 --> 00:32:04.359 align:center
This is not something
to be congratulated for.

00:32:05.435 --> 00:32:08.103 align:center
In this industry,
the upper hand always changes.

00:32:12.104 --> 00:32:15.677 align:center
Place both arms and knees on the floor,

00:32:15.763 --> 00:32:20.583 align:center
lift your back leg toward the ceiling,
and gently stretch it out.

00:32:20.669 --> 00:32:22.235 align:center
Sweep your left arm across the floor
and point it straight ahead.

00:32:22.236 --> 00:32:23.272 align:center
Breathe.

00:32:23.273 --> 00:32:26.059 align:center
Now, from that position,
reach your left arm back

00:32:26.192 --> 00:32:29.284 align:center
and grab the top of your foot.

00:32:30.829 --> 00:32:33.789 align:center
Open up your front thigh
and gaze far ahead.

00:32:35.470 --> 00:32:36.469 align:center
Good.

00:32:36.470 --> 00:32:37.834 align:center
Now, plant your arm firmly on the floor,

00:32:37.835 --> 00:32:39.086 align:center
and point your fingertips
toward the ceiling.

00:32:39.087 --> 00:32:40.132 align:center
That is right.

00:32:41.750 --> 00:32:42.750 align:center
Good.

00:32:42.841 --> 00:32:45.632 align:center
- Breathe. Yes.
- Ah, hold on a second, I am sorry.

00:32:49.202 --> 00:32:50.483 align:center
Yeah, what is it?

00:32:52.633 --> 00:32:53.633 align:center
What?

00:32:54.692 --> 00:32:57.254 align:center
BELMORE DEPARTMENT STORE
SENIOR MANAGING DIRECTOR KIM SUN-UK

00:33:05.812 --> 00:33:07.138 align:center
No answer. After the beep...

00:33:07.230 --> 00:33:08.649 align:center
What is this?

00:33:08.740 --> 00:33:09.884 align:center
What, he is not answering?

00:33:09.975 --> 00:33:11.851 align:center
What on earth...

00:33:11.943 --> 00:33:14.460 align:center
Ah, I just need to make
one important call, yeah.

00:33:14.551 --> 00:33:16.519 align:center
Yeah, just a moment.

00:33:32.946 --> 00:33:35.326 align:center
BELMORE'S KIM SUN-UK

00:33:35.417 --> 00:33:37.887 align:center
- Yes, Senior Managing Director.
- Hello.

00:33:37.980 --> 00:33:40.479 align:center
What are you doing right now? Huh?

00:33:40.480 --> 00:33:41.778 align:center
Ah, it is exactly as you saw.

00:33:41.779 --> 00:33:44.544 align:center
We will lower the commission rate to 15%
based on luxury brand standards.

00:33:45.357 --> 00:33:47.509 align:center
Does this make any sense? Huh?

00:33:47.510 --> 00:33:49.868 align:center
Didn't you break it with Hongseong
since we'd pay the penalty?

00:33:50.519 --> 00:33:51.519 align:center
Hey, turn off the music.

00:33:51.607 --> 00:33:53.323 align:center
You pull this right after we paid?

00:33:54.116 --> 00:33:55.304 align:center
Aren't you taking this too far?

00:33:55.393 --> 00:33:57.769 align:center
Hey, are we doing business here,
or are you just playing around?

00:33:57.857 --> 00:33:59.706 align:center
I said turn off the music, damn it!

00:34:03.360 --> 00:34:06.969 align:center
Senior Managing Director.
You know business is simple.

00:34:07.057 --> 00:34:09.082 align:center
I went for it
because I knew it would work.

00:34:09.170 --> 00:34:10.909 align:center
If you do not like it,
you do not have to accept it.

00:34:10.998 --> 00:34:13.437 align:center
If you do not agree to the new contract,

00:34:13.527 --> 00:34:15.560 align:center
there will be no compensation
for the penalty fee.

00:34:15.650 --> 00:34:18.090 align:center
Hey, if you act like this,

00:34:18.091 --> 00:34:21.230 align:center
not just us, but other department stores
will not sit still either.

00:34:21.356 --> 00:34:22.703 align:center
Can you handle the consequences of this?

00:34:22.704 --> 00:34:25.399 align:center
We are not doing this with every store.

00:34:25.400 --> 00:34:28.181 align:center
We do not do this to department stores
that compromised at a reasonable level.

00:34:29.109 --> 00:34:31.929 align:center
We have already exceeded our target
for securing stores.

00:34:33.029 --> 00:34:37.190 align:center
If you do not like these conditions,
you can just sign with Hongseong again.

00:34:38.529 --> 00:34:39.528 align:center
Hey, hey, CEO Jeong!

00:34:39.529 --> 00:34:42.629 align:center
Let us not yell,
Senior Managing Director Kim.

00:34:42.630 --> 00:34:44.766 align:center
You may be a department store
senior managing director,

00:34:44.767 --> 00:34:46.905 align:center
but why do you keep
speaking informally to me?

00:34:48.372 --> 00:34:53.276 align:center
Senior Managing Director Kim.
Let us do business with some manners.

00:34:53.277 --> 00:34:54.617 align:center
Okay?

00:34:54.618 --> 00:34:57.383 align:center
Please review it thoroughly
and get back to me.

00:34:57.384 --> 00:35:00.150 align:center
Oh, and take good care of your health.

00:35:00.285 --> 00:35:03.633 align:center
Everyone seems to get sick
after retiring as an executive.

00:35:03.768 --> 00:35:05.429 align:center
Some even pass away early...

00:35:05.563 --> 00:35:06.960 align:center
Hey.

00:35:08.690 --> 00:35:09.908 align:center
Hey, hey, hello.

00:35:09.909 --> 00:35:11.346 align:center
Hey...

00:35:44.026 --> 00:35:45.717 align:center
What happened with the penalty?

00:35:48.550 --> 00:35:50.288 align:center
We recovered 100 percent of it.

00:35:50.289 --> 00:35:54.141 align:center
There was little resistance, probably
because they thought CGM would cover it.

00:35:56.613 --> 00:35:58.437 align:center
This is going to give them indigestion.

00:35:58.438 --> 00:35:59.519 align:center
- Let us begin.
- Yes.

00:36:10.300 --> 00:36:11.300 align:center
Yes, Reporter Park.

00:36:11.492 --> 00:36:13.219 align:center
You can upload it now.

00:36:14.980 --> 00:36:16.019 align:center
Yes, thank you.

00:36:21.628 --> 00:36:25.495 align:center
The highest rental fee is determined
by the customer's closing price, you see.

00:36:29.701 --> 00:36:30.701 align:center
Yes.

00:36:32.294 --> 00:36:33.294 align:center
Excuse me?

00:36:34.334 --> 00:36:35.334 align:center
Yes.

00:36:40.453 --> 00:36:43.725 align:center
HONGSEONG'S COUNTERATTACK -
WILL CGM'S ENTRY INTO KOREA FAIL?

00:36:49.673 --> 00:36:51.798 align:center
I just heard about it too.

00:36:51.799 --> 00:36:55.707 align:center
I will check and get back to you.
Uh, Team Leader.

00:36:55.708 --> 00:36:57.195 align:center
This-- this...

00:36:59.885 --> 00:37:00.885 align:center
CGM KILLING KOREAN FIRMS

00:37:01.062 --> 00:37:02.592 align:center
What is this?

00:37:03.485 --> 00:37:06.331 align:center
DEPARTMENT STORES' CALCULATIONS.
HONGSEONG OR CGM?

00:37:09.688 --> 00:37:11.090 align:center
Damn it...

00:37:14.745 --> 00:37:16.359 align:center
Mr. Chung,

00:37:16.360 --> 00:37:17.359 align:center
what happened?

00:37:17.360 --> 00:37:19.460 align:center
I thought MANTOVA was not
signing with Hongseong.

00:37:20.480 --> 00:37:23.659 align:center
Hongseong preempted all
the warehouses in Shenzhen.

00:37:24.199 --> 00:37:26.698 align:center
Don't you know 80% of brands
MANTOVA handles overlap with ours?

00:37:26.699 --> 00:37:27.697 align:center
If they enter China first,

00:37:27.698 --> 00:37:29.698 align:center
all the effort we have put in so far
will be useless.

00:37:29.699 --> 00:37:31.638 align:center
If this happens, there is no reason for us

00:37:31.724 --> 00:37:34.611 align:center
to push to enter the Korean market,
as I have said many times.

00:37:35.818 --> 00:37:38.016 align:center
Are you listening to me?

00:37:49.739 --> 00:37:53.618 align:center
HONGSEONG JOINS HANDS WITH MANTOVA
TO TARGET THE CHINESE MARKET

00:37:55.213 --> 00:37:57.497 align:center
Oh, why? I will really keep it to myself.

00:37:57.498 --> 00:37:59.394 align:center
Please?

00:37:59.480 --> 00:38:00.579 align:center
I am just really anxious.

00:38:10.349 --> 00:38:11.569 align:center
The coffee is hot, right?

00:38:13.170 --> 00:38:14.269 align:center
- Yes?
- Put it down, you will get hurt.

00:38:15.869 --> 00:38:16.869 align:center
Okay.

00:38:21.062 --> 00:38:23.030 align:center
Huh?

00:38:24.699 --> 00:38:25.940 align:center
Will you open this now?

00:38:25.941 --> 00:38:27.379 align:center
Or should I call the Audit Team
to open it?

00:38:31.321 --> 00:38:32.837 align:center
Open it.

00:38:42.150 --> 00:38:44.930 align:center
How about you stay here
and be our eyes and ears?

00:38:47.909 --> 00:38:50.495 align:center
Team Leader, I...

00:38:50.582 --> 00:38:52.861 align:center
I will transfer if you tell me to.

00:38:52.948 --> 00:38:55.622 align:center
But I cannot do that.

00:39:00.047 --> 00:39:01.712 align:center
Actually, no.

00:39:01.801 --> 00:39:03.553 align:center
I will not transfer either.

00:39:03.640 --> 00:39:05.087 align:center
Get lost.

00:39:09.250 --> 00:39:12.349 align:center
No, you worked really hard today.
Hurry home and get some rest.

00:39:12.444 --> 00:39:14.311 align:center
Yes, Team Leader.

00:39:16.130 --> 00:39:17.150 align:center
I will see you tomorrow.

00:39:17.238 --> 00:39:18.463 align:center
LEE JI-HYE, STAFF, TEAM 5

00:39:24.289 --> 00:39:25.909 align:center
Ah...

00:39:26.698 --> 00:39:28.843 align:center
MARTINA

00:39:34.099 --> 00:39:37.377 align:center
- Yes, Director, this is Gong Eun-tae.
- I will come into the office tomorrow.

00:39:37.378 --> 00:39:38.459 align:center
Please have the contract ready.

00:39:40.698 --> 00:39:42.219 align:center
You are going to sign the contract?

00:39:42.306 --> 00:39:46.646 align:center
Your employee was excellent.
She has good taste in clothes and food.

00:39:46.733 --> 00:39:51.160 align:center
Not that taste is important.
I just wanted to see one thing,

00:39:51.248 --> 00:39:55.411 align:center
whether she could deliver bad news
in a nice way.

00:39:55.500 --> 00:39:57.619 align:center
Have someone else come out tomorrow.

00:40:01.829 --> 00:40:06.097 align:center
We cannot know MANTOVA's
exact sales figures, but

00:40:06.098 --> 00:40:07.709 align:center
when CGM enters China,

00:40:07.710 --> 00:40:11.942 align:center
we estimate that 12 percent
of MANTOVA's sales will disappear.

00:40:11.943 --> 00:40:15.303 align:center
We believe that is the proportion
of East Asian retailers.

00:40:15.304 --> 00:40:17.088 align:center
Our Team Leader believes we can capture

00:40:17.089 --> 00:40:21.155 align:center
more than five percent
of the imported clothing market.

00:40:21.156 --> 00:40:25.264 align:center
I will send the documents you requested
to your hotel within 30 minutes.

00:40:25.265 --> 00:40:27.849 align:center
And I will arrange
for someone else to come tomorrow.

00:40:27.962 --> 00:40:32.856 align:center
If someone else comes,
will they be better than you, Ji-hye?

00:40:34.109 --> 00:40:35.109 align:center
To be honest with you,

00:40:35.200 --> 00:40:40.572 align:center
I do not think it would be much different
even if our Team Leader came.

00:40:42.316 --> 00:40:44.979 align:center
Our Team Leader told me this.

00:40:45.072 --> 00:40:50.489 align:center
You cannot do business with someone
who thinks they have you by the throat.

00:40:52.509 --> 00:40:55.968 align:center
We need MANTOVA. We are desperate.

00:40:55.969 --> 00:40:58.969 align:center
And I am certain
that MANTOVA needs us too.

00:41:00.052 --> 00:41:03.721 align:center
So I hope you will show us the courtesy
we need to work together.

00:41:03.722 --> 00:41:05.973 align:center
Just as much courtesy
as we are showing you.

00:41:08.308 --> 00:41:09.433 align:center
I will take my leave now.

00:41:23.900 --> 00:41:26.561 align:center
The easiest thing in the world
is saying nice things nicely,

00:41:26.562 --> 00:41:28.119 align:center
and saying bad things badly.

00:41:28.210 --> 00:41:31.861 align:center
Saying bad things nicely
is very difficult.

00:41:31.954 --> 00:41:35.696 align:center
But your employee from Hongseong
did exactly that.

00:41:35.788 --> 00:41:37.406 align:center
I think it will be good working with her.

00:41:38.700 --> 00:41:40.760 align:center
Then are you going to China with us?

00:41:43.050 --> 00:41:44.130 align:center
Let us see tomorrow.

00:41:51.949 --> 00:41:53.290 align:center
Assistant Manager Jang.

00:41:53.380 --> 00:41:54.379 align:center
Yes.

00:41:54.380 --> 00:41:56.238 align:center
Please reserve a warehouse in Shenzhen.

00:42:00.843 --> 00:42:02.152 align:center
MANTOVA?

00:42:02.153 --> 00:42:06.251 align:center
I think CGM is ultimately
targeting China through Korea.

00:42:06.252 --> 00:42:10.350 align:center
The head MD of MANTOVA
visited our company this morning.

00:42:10.351 --> 00:42:11.956 align:center
I am sure of it.

00:42:17.829 --> 00:42:19.032 align:center
Mr. Gong.

00:42:19.033 --> 00:42:22.809 align:center
- I heard you decided to sign the contract.
- Yes, thank you so much.

00:42:23.269 --> 00:42:24.269 align:center
I did not make the decision.

00:42:24.989 --> 00:42:25.989 align:center
Martina made the decision,

00:42:26.609 --> 00:42:29.210 align:center
and the reason is that
your employee was excellent.

00:42:29.320 --> 00:42:31.654 align:center
Ultimately, you made the decision,
did you not?

00:42:33.210 --> 00:42:34.849 align:center
Is there anything else I can do for you?

00:42:36.149 --> 00:42:38.049 align:center
You will get a call
from CEO Jeong Seon-hyeok.

00:42:39.210 --> 00:42:41.649 align:center
Should I tell him
we are not signing with Hongseong?

00:42:41.791 --> 00:42:44.507 align:center
I will leave it up to your decision,
Mr. Sponza.

00:42:44.603 --> 00:42:47.034 align:center
The result will not change anyway.

00:42:47.129 --> 00:42:48.329 align:center
I will take care of it.

00:42:48.416 --> 00:42:53.107 align:center
I heard the guy who came late to work
was actually here to steal what is mine.

00:42:54.063 --> 00:42:57.060 align:center
I should not just
send him back nicely, right?

00:42:58.971 --> 00:43:01.534 align:center
I might need to do some acting.

00:43:01.621 --> 00:43:04.922 align:center
Martina is not a good actor for nothing.

00:43:05.009 --> 00:43:06.009 align:center
She learned it from me.

00:43:06.929 --> 00:43:07.929 align:center
She is just Korean.

00:43:26.273 --> 00:43:28.391 align:center
ARMONIA DEPARTMENT STORE,
GENERAL MANAGER YOON SEONG-SIK

00:43:28.392 --> 00:43:30.425 align:center
LUCINE, MANAGER BAEK MI-HA

00:43:30.426 --> 00:43:32.501 align:center
LORBENZO, TEAM LEADER KANG IN-JA

00:43:32.502 --> 00:43:34.281 align:center
OPIC, MANAGER YANG JI-SEON

00:43:40.637 --> 00:43:42.628 align:center
I love moments like this.

00:43:44.619 --> 00:43:45.762 align:center
The moments that make you...

00:43:47.500 --> 00:43:48.500 align:center
reinterpret the past.

00:43:57.449 --> 00:44:00.411 align:center
No matter how hard the work is,
once you get through it,

00:44:00.412 --> 00:44:02.169 align:center
the past becomes a memory.

00:44:03.409 --> 00:44:07.210 align:center
If you do not make it,
it becomes a memory you want to forget.

00:44:10.550 --> 00:44:12.150 align:center
The past does not create the present.

00:44:14.110 --> 00:44:15.810 align:center
The present creates the past.

00:44:51.663 --> 00:44:56.622 align:center
THE ORDINARY JACKPOT

00:45:41.092 --> 00:45:43.319 align:center
Thank you for your time,
Senior Managing Director.

00:45:45.800 --> 00:45:48.240 align:center
I was curious why you wanted to see me.

00:45:49.806 --> 00:45:52.445 align:center
You have a knack
for making people overthink.

00:45:53.251 --> 00:45:56.159 align:center
I asked to meet because this is not
something to discuss over the phone.

00:45:57.680 --> 00:45:58.680 align:center
What is it about?

00:46:00.200 --> 00:46:01.678 align:center
Well...

00:46:01.679 --> 00:46:03.815 align:center
Are you...

00:46:03.816 --> 00:46:05.953 align:center
planning to retire at Hongseong?

00:46:09.199 --> 00:46:10.199 align:center
What are you trying to say?

00:46:10.881 --> 00:46:12.564 align:center
I would like to

00:46:12.565 --> 00:46:14.139 align:center
bring you over to CGM.

00:46:21.649 --> 00:46:22.648 align:center
In what role?

00:46:22.649 --> 00:46:26.485 align:center
Senior Managing Director, advisor,
whatever position you want.

00:46:26.580 --> 00:46:30.960 align:center
- The terms?
- I am thinking around 500,000 dollars.

00:46:32.207 --> 00:46:33.207 align:center
How does that sound?

00:46:40.574 --> 00:46:44.555 align:center
Actually, I think it is good
that you left.

00:46:44.556 --> 00:46:49.142 align:center
Corporate systems are just like that.
They sometimes lose capable people.

00:46:49.143 --> 00:46:52.842 align:center
I just think it was not
the right fit for me.

00:46:52.843 --> 00:46:54.170 align:center
Oh, come on.

00:46:54.171 --> 00:46:57.670 align:center
Anyway, it is good to see someone
from Hongseong doing so well.

00:46:57.671 --> 00:46:59.602 align:center
I still have to work harder.

00:47:00.769 --> 00:47:01.769 align:center
But anyway...

00:47:03.343 --> 00:47:06.198 align:center
What are you planning to do with CGM?

00:47:06.199 --> 00:47:08.572 align:center
No matter how I look at it,
with your current margins,

00:47:08.573 --> 00:47:11.307 align:center
there does not seem to be an answer
in the Korean market.

00:47:11.308 --> 00:47:13.239 align:center
You think the margins are too low, right?

00:47:14.486 --> 00:47:17.623 align:center
Is it that dominating the market
comes first?

00:47:17.624 --> 00:47:20.198 align:center
Yes, even if we have to overextend a bit,

00:47:20.199 --> 00:47:21.687 align:center
I want to secure our position early on.

00:47:22.733 --> 00:47:26.071 align:center
Come on, there has to be something else.

00:47:26.072 --> 00:47:28.526 align:center
We are going to be working together,
so you can tell me.

00:47:30.779 --> 00:47:32.991 align:center
- Senior Managing Director.
- Yes?

00:47:34.159 --> 00:47:35.420 align:center
Are you really coming to CGM?

00:47:37.507 --> 00:47:41.412 align:center
- Well, I said I was going to.
- Senior Managing Director.

00:47:45.226 --> 00:47:47.768 align:center
- Was it that obvious?
- Very.

00:47:47.860 --> 00:47:49.200 align:center
Oh, man.

00:47:50.519 --> 00:47:51.900 align:center
Acting is not easy.

00:47:53.431 --> 00:47:56.027 align:center
Actors deserve to be paid well.

00:47:56.028 --> 00:47:59.561 align:center
Come on, it is my treat.
Let us just have some drinks.

00:48:10.074 --> 00:48:13.437 align:center
Then I will assume you are not coming,

00:48:14.288 --> 00:48:16.203 align:center
and ask you one thing.

00:48:17.949 --> 00:48:18.969 align:center
Why do you want to stay at Hongseong?

00:48:21.354 --> 00:48:23.501 align:center
You had it wrong from the start.

00:48:24.217 --> 00:48:25.218 align:center
About what?

00:48:27.509 --> 00:48:29.049 align:center
I have been at Hongseong for thirty years.

00:48:29.138 --> 00:48:32.867 align:center
When the CEO set up the office
above the supermarket in Gwanghui-dong,

00:48:32.956 --> 00:48:34.599 align:center
I was with him from the very beginning.

00:48:35.975 --> 00:48:39.881 align:center
Do you really think I would
change companies for money now?

00:48:40.636 --> 00:48:42.767 align:center
Then how

00:48:42.857 --> 00:48:44.543 align:center
should I have approached you?

00:48:46.009 --> 00:48:50.230 align:center
A bigger market, a bigger goal,
greater honor.

00:48:51.047 --> 00:48:53.643 align:center
You should have approached me
with things like that.

00:48:56.049 --> 00:48:57.169 align:center
Would you have come if I did?

00:49:00.550 --> 00:49:04.878 align:center
No. I still would not have gone.

00:49:04.969 --> 00:49:05.969 align:center
Are you not the same?

00:49:08.110 --> 00:49:09.110 align:center
You do not work just for the money.

00:49:12.529 --> 00:49:14.964 align:center
Since you are like that too...

00:49:14.965 --> 00:49:18.898 align:center
why did you think
I would be any different?

00:49:59.846 --> 00:50:02.624 align:center
So you need to keep it
a secret from me too?

00:50:02.710 --> 00:50:05.490 align:center
If I were Jeong Seon-hyeok,
you'd be the first person I'd contact.

00:50:06.444 --> 00:50:08.734 align:center
General Manager Park is such a sly fox.
