Cold Blooded Intern (Cruel Intern / Janhokhan Intern / 잔혹한 인턴)

Life is a series of choices.

All choices...

have consequences.

Once a choice is made, it cannot be undone.

Hello.

I applied for the position for people with work experience.

I'm Go Hae Ra.

Ms. Go.

You left the workforce seven years ago.

What made you want to reenter the workforce?

I decided to reenter the workforce because...

Mom, can you give me my school shirt?

Gosh. It's over there. Come on.

- Dad, move. - Okay.

Honey, where are my socks?

- Right here. - Socks.

Mom, it's not in here!

Gosh, I don't have time. Where are my socks?

I didn't want to be so and so's mom or so and so's wife.

To get my life back,

I decided to reenter the workforce and get a job.

You're quite old.

With this job, you have to work outside the office and work late.

Do you think you can handle that?

When it comes to stamina, I'm second to none.

It's half off now! It's the biggest discount!

I have been doing cardio exercises every day.

Not to lose any muscles,

I also did weight training.

Gong Yi Young!

I can confidently tell you that...

I am as strong as the people in their 20s.

No. Even teenagers, I daresay.

You've released several successful products.

As you can see in the portfolio I submitted,

I've won the Product of the Year several times.

I'm a merchandiser with a proven track record.

- But... - But...

- that was 7 years ago. - that was 7 years ago.

You probably fell behind during those seven years.

- Is there a reason... - Is there a reason...

- why we should hire you? - why we should hire you?

Yes.

For the past seven years, I've been one of the key consumers...

who have been checking the products thoroughly.

I still gathered current information and trends in my day-to-day life.

So I'm very confident that I can do this.

I'm so sorry.

Gosh.

Thank you so much.

I'm glad your baby likes this.

You must have been bothered by all the crying. Thank you.

All babies cry.

Okay.

Wait.

My baby doesn't eat a lot, so it's hard to find food he likes.

Where can I buy this?

This product isn't available in Korea yet.

But it will be released exclusively on Market House next month.

I see. Thank you so much.

Everyone, give her a hand.

She went all the way to New Zealand to win the contract.

We have so much respect for you.

All right. Take a look at the file.

Let's sit down.

That was really impressive, ma'am.

Goodness. She even brought us presents.

- What? - Isn't this the in-flight meal?

That's right.

I brought my in-flight meal.

There are no stoves on the planes as it's a restricted environment.

The meals consist of dishes...

that can be microwaved under a minute.

Let's come up with a meal kit that even kids will like.

Why don't you take this, Ms. Geum?

Me?

Pretend that you're making a meal for your son.

- Sure. - But aren't there already...

a lot of boxed meals like this at convenience stores?

That's why we should highlight the concept of an in-flight meal.

It won't be a meal kids have alone at home without their mothers.

The meal will make them feel like they're on a trip or a picnic.

A special, warm boxed meal that excites the kids.

Goodness.

By using the scandal our rival, Onjung, is facing,

you came up with a plan to win over working moms.

- Gosh. - You're really amazing.

You could have easily overlooked it, but you turned it into a product.

Right. Ma'am, we got the resumes...

of the applicants for the new employee position.

What should we do with them?

- Bring them to my office. - Okay.

All right. Have a good day, everyone.

Okay.

Yes, sir.

The resumes.

Yes.

Then why don't I head over there now?

You said you were going to graduate as a housewife.

Did you find a place to start?

It's not easy, is it?

Did you even go to any interviews?

Finding a job is hard even for young kids now.

Have you seen me fail at anything after I decided to do it?

I always "go" at it no matter what. I'm Go Hae Ra.

Now that I decided to get a job,

I'll make it happen no matter what. You just watch.

That's what I want too.

Right.

Doesn't your company promote people around this time of the year?

Why do you ask?

You can get promoted this time, right?

Gosh.

What is this?

Why are you leaving in the middle of our conversation?

It's a work call.

Work...

Gosh, I told you not to call me when I was home.

My wife might figure it out.

This way.

Goodness, Ms. Choi.

You went all the way to New Zealand...

and won a contract. Good work.

Let me pour you a drink.

Thank you, sir.

- All right. - Okay.

You also read...

the news article about how Onjung made...

their new employees sign the no-pregnancy contract. Right?

Yes, I read it on the plane.

Gosh, those fools.

Thanks to that scandal,

Market House will be able to reap the benefits.

With people talking about boycotting Onjung's products,

our sales will surely go up. Right?

Is that what you think too?

Well, they will suffer a blow temporarily.

But it won't change the fact that...

they're still the number-one company in our industry.

My point, exactly.

People in our industry already knew that they made women sign...

those contracts. You know?

Goodness.

Our world is changing, so they should too.

I can't believe they're still doing the things their founder used to do.

Exactly.

They should catch up with the social awareness these days.

- Be logical... - They shouldn't have gotten caught.

There was a reason Onjung could maintain the lead in our industry.

Don't you know how much money the company loses...

whenever women take leave?

We prevented that...

and conducted our business with high efficiency.

Yes, you're right.

I'm sure there's a way...

to handle this quietly without letting the word go out.

Isn't that so, Ms. Choi?

Do you have anything to say?

Since when did you know the director so well...

as if you were seeing through his heart?

What's going on?

Did you two become more than colleagues...

while I looked away?

If you aren't getting in, I'm going to close the doors.

Come on.

Goodness. All right.

You don't have a husband who makes a living for you...

or children to support you once you grow older.

You should always struggle and try your best...

to survive on your own.

You have a wife who's waiting for you to make a living...

and children you're raising to make them support you later.

So why don't you try working hard too?

Is the sales department only interested...

in buttering up the director, not the clients?

If I were you,

I wouldn't follow him around through every bar he visits,

but would have used the time to secure more clients.

What? Ouch! That hurts.

Hey, you!

What a pathetic jerk.

Next interviewees are Han Chae Hee and Go Hae Ra. Please be ready.

Yes!

Choi Ji Won?

Ms. Han, you were born in 1998.

Ms. Go, you went to college in 1998.

Ms. Go who went to college in 1998,

you passed the application screening because of your work experience.

But you're a bit too old.
