BEN

Hey, Ben. I'm driving.

- Do you have your passport? - My passport? Uh…

It's in my room, in the third drawer. Why?

Get your passport and come to the airport.

We have to go to the States right now.

What? What are you saying?

Why do we have to go?

Come to my office.

EPISODE 6

Hello?

Express delivery?

I'll head there right away.

Ben, I just got here. I'm going to receive my passport.

Hurry. There aren't many seats left for the 7:30 flight.

- -

- Hey. - Hurry up! We don't have time.

I'm heading inside now.

Okay.

HANG IN THERE!

Hello. This way, please.

DESIGNER SONG HARAN

ANIMATOR SEONU CHAN

Dear passengers, this is Korea Air, Flight 202

headed for Los Angeles International Airport.

Please wear your seat belts

and switch all electronic devices to airplane mode.

MISSED CALL ANIMATOR SEONU CHAN

Mr. Park, did you hear from Mr. Seonu?

Oh?

He said he'd take the earliest flight to the US.

He must be gone already.

YOUR PHOTOS ARE READY FOR PICKUP. HOBAK PHOTO STUDIO

The project's suspended?

Producer Ben said

there were major executive changes at the US headquarters.

And the new decision-maker said they'll halt all ongoing projects.

The project's up in the air right now.

IN YOUR RADIANT SEASON

They really left?

The entire staff?

The production team left in a hurry after hearing the news.

I'll share any updates if I receive any.

This is just so sudden.

All animation work will be on hold for now.

We'll start meetings for the next season tomorrow,

so get ready.

Team 1 meeting's over.

- Call Team 2. - All right.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

Wow. Weren't we pretty close?

He could've at least sent a message.

His phone's off, too.

He was using a temporary phone here, right?

Pureum, he's not using this number in the States?

- Chan isn't coming here anymore, then? - Hmm…

I feel like he'll come back soon, though.

Why? Did he tell you something?

No,

but I feel like he'll solve everything and come back soon.

Chan doesn't seem like the type to just end things like this.

Right. It hasn't been confirmed that it's canceled yet.

Chan might already be pretty close

to the new person in charge.

You're right. He'll solve it straight away and return with a surprise.

What kind of surprise?

What's this huge box? Fabric samples?

- - The Chan you ordered is here!

Ta-da!

He could appear like a magic trick.

That's possible.

That does suit him.

Seonu Chan really is something. He's making us laugh even when he's away.

Geez.

I really miss him.

Hmm

A reinterpretation of Nana Atelier's early outfits.

Oh, my. This is going to work.

The new Haran's killing it lately.

You have digital files of videos from the '70s, right?

I'll share them with you now.

Ah.

Okay. Then let's build on that and do some more research…

Tsk.

I'm sure Chan will come back in a few days, saying "Surprise!"

So… Don't worry.

But if he contacts you before then, tell us right away.

- What? - Wouldn't he contact you first?

You haven't been screening your windows.

I know it's because of Chan.

I'm very perceptive, you know.

- -

Hello?

New Haran?

It's mine.

Yes, Ms. Kim.

I was going to visit on the weekend.

My phone doesn't seem to be ringing

LOS ANGELES TIME DIFFERENCE

SEOUL IS 17 HOURS AHEAD OF LOS ANGELES

It would be morning there.

HAVE YOU ARRIVED YET?

Darn it.

Did I fall asleep here?

What time is it?

I must be crazy.

Innovative materials?

You mean using new materials?

Yes. The same beauty, but more eco-friendly.

We'll recreate one of our archive's 1979 silk pleated set

with fermented protein fabric.

It'll be eco-friendly and maintain its elegant mood.

Nice. Maison has been using new materials these days, too.

We could target eco-conscious consumers who don't buy clothes.

That's what I mean.

We can't.

Nana Atelier built its name on silk and cashmere craftsmanship.

Using unstable, unverified materials

may jeopardize our launch schedule as well as brand trust.

The show is meant to showcase the brand's vision.

Young consumers care about both style and sustainability.

We should adapt to the times.

It's all about value-based consumption now.

If we don't, we'll get discarded.

Customer trust comes first for our brand.

Moving away from our premium materials

will risk losing the loyalty of our longtime customers.

I know trust is important, but the world has changed.

A brand that doesn't change is even more risky.

Taking a risk is more dangerous.

We already have a packed schedule.

It won't be wise to make a risky move that may disrupt our timeline.

- I... - Stop.

I welcome discussions like this anytime.

Let's put some more thought into this and discuss it again next time.

- Yes, ma'am. - Okay.

I prepared everything.

There's something else. I received good news this morning.

What? Do you want to perform or something?

Oh…

No, I just needed to adjust my outfit.

The pre-order stock for the Lafayette coats

have already sold out.

- We received additional orders. -

That's amazing!

That's great news.

Good. Make sure everything stays on track until they're shipped.

Yes, ma'am.

- - Hey. Was I wrong?

Using materials that didn't exist back then

is what we call reinterpretation.

You're right.

The fermented protein fabric idea was good.

Then why was Mr. Yeon like that?

"No. Customer trust comes first."

"We can't risk customer loyalty."

What?

Here's the list of outfits for tomorrow's VIP fitting.

It's my job to bridge the gap between the artist's vision and reality.

He cares so much about our family, but why is he so strict with me?

I'm not bothered at all.
