The Producers (Producer / Peurodyusa / 프로듀사)

She'll be in charge of your OJT. She's the core member, the king sister...

What kind of a parking job is this? No manners!

Fight? With who? Me and Cindy?

How can I fight with her? It's more like a scolding.

As per KBS policy, I clearly requested that you change your outfit earlier.

- It's pretty, right? - Yes.

The... the person I like... works in the Variety Department. So...

Because I hoped to work near her...

- It's you, right? - Yes, it is.

- We went to church together. - Actually, it was school.

You lived by school in Shillim-dong.

I live in Yeouido. I have since I was born.

Isn't she an associate producer for 'Entertainment Weekly'? Shin Hae Joo?

There's a rumor that they're dating. Is that true?

Look at that. They're dating.

Ra Joon Mo has skills.

2 Days, 1 Night!

You, yourself, okayed the idea to have the older ladies on the variety show.

Yeah I did, so you should've done a good job.

How can I not scratch your car? Seriously!

Then should I take out my car first?

Forget it! I'm already inside!

After school, I used to always walked Ye Jin home.

It certainly was not because I thought Ye Jin was pretty or because I wanted to protect her.

Damn those elevators...

It was only because I was determined to ride them.

You're so lucky. You get to live in an apartment.

And you get to ride elevators everyday.

Why don't you ask your dad to buy one too?

My dad doesn't have any money.

Then ask your mom.

Since then, for some time, I nagged my mom to buy me Ye Jin's apartment.

My mom actually did.

When Ye Jin's family business was in financial trouble during IMF

my mother bought her apartment for dirt cheap.

Since then, the apartment price was multiplied a few folds.

And thanks to the real-estate policy in the 90s, my mom miraculously

acquired the golden line by purchasing real-estate in Yeouido, Bun-dang, and Ban-Po.

She raised our family's wealth, which my dad could never do his whole life.

That's how the apartment in Yeouido ended up becoming my own apartment.

That is... at least until two months ago, when a nonsense situation happened.

Sigh, the lease ends at the end of February.

And the move-in date for my new apartment is the end of June.

There's exactly four months in between.

How nice would it be if they just exten my lease for just those four months.

But, then the landlord says 'no'.

They are saying either renew the lease or move out.

I'm about to live on the streets.

Just renew the lease.

- They are asking for 20 million won as the deposit. - 20 million?

Even if I get a loan to pay that deposit

do you think that stingy landlord will refund me the deposit when I move to a new place?

- Aren't there monthly sublets? For short term? - Just for four months?

I'd have to pay for moving and the realtor fee twice.

These days, you don't just move your boxes of things.

I have to change internet service, and move utility service...

And there's TV, cable, home phone...

Not to mention the elevator charge on the moving day.

I'd have to pay them twice, when I move out and move in.

And at some places, I might even have to pay for stairwells cleaning.

Also, there's the maintenance fee and I'd have to come to an agreement with the landlord.

Hey, do you think moving is that easy?

Aren't they all managed by moving services provider?

I envy your homeowner's ignorance.

So, do you have a plan?

Plan? What plan...

I'm just going to put all my stuff in storage.

And just stay in a boarding room or a motel or something.

Gosh, I don't know. Let's just drink.

This is where my memory ends.

But then...

- Can you put these in that room? - Sure.

- Yes those can go in that room. - There?

- So many books. - Be careful.

- Where should the bed go? - The bed should go into that room.

Okay, got it.

Joon Bal!

I guess it's right for you to use the main bedroom, right?

- Please put it all the way in there. - A promissory note?

I, Ra Joon Mo, will allow his friend Tak Ye Jin, four months of

free stay in my apartment.

You're saying I wrote this?

That's your handwriting! And the fingerprint stamp too. They are all yours.

Hey, how come your door code is still 0000?

I'm going to change it to my birthdate.

Whoa, can you move that a bit further?

Just like that, thanks to a promise I don't even remember, we started living together.

Even after what happened to me, I'm still sitting here drinking with you. I must be insane.

I really need a drink. I dented another car with my car door. It was an imported car.

Are you kidding me? The Chief wants to end my program. What about me?

Oh... Wait.

Wow, the Chief... that's too harsh.

This isn't right! I mean!

How can he do that to you? The Chief shouldn't be doing this.

Others may not know, but I know.

I know how much effort you, Joon Bal, put into this one.

Never mind.

Especially! The fact you were able to cast Yoon Yuh Jung... That was a feat of heroism.

You know? While I was witnessing that

I thought 'Wow, he's truly professional' to myself.

I said that's enough...

Hey, how did you convince her to be on your show?

Back then wasn't she contemplating going on 'Three Meals a Day'?

Who watches a show on eating three meals a day?

Who can't eat three meals a day these days?

Young Seok is working on the wrong concept this time around.

That show will fail.

As long as we can craft a right character for you, I estimate at least 5 commercials for you.

You know I'm not concerned about those things.

Oh, come on...

Hey, anyway, what did Yoon Yuh Jung say when you told her she's no longer on the program?

She must've gotten quite mad at you. I mean why wouldn't she be.

I couldn't yet.

- Couldn't yet what? - I couldn't tell her yet that she's out.

What will you do?

What are you doing now?

Oh... Although I unintentionally became a producer in the variety department

I will be working on a show so I figured I needed to do some studying.

I guess I'm going through our country's history of comedy.

Can you share a little bit of what you learned?

Yes. Um, first...

I'm currently comparing the two most prominent silly characters Young Gu and Meng Gu.

There are many differences.

First, from the phonology perspective

Meng Gu in his thick voice says 'hello'

like this, on the other hand...

Young Gu makes a small mouth opening

with a lisp, oh and he uses the head voice.

'Young Gu is not here', like that.

'Young Gu is not here.'

Um, Meng Gu in Balsam School...

with some authority on a customary community...

and by continuously asking and answering questions, disables the very system...

and pursues comedy that's more close to realism.

Whereas, Young Gu in 'Nobody can stop the Crown Prince' or...

'Tomorrow's Champion' can be childish as can be seen in these program titles.

His comedy contains the working class'

griefs and tries to melt away their sorrows.

The character's original form was effectively reflected in...

Here we are again, Baek Seung Chan. You live here?

Yes. No, no. Um... what I mean is...

Yes, yes. I live here.

Oh, do you also live here?

- Nope, not me. But, my boyfriend does. - Oh.

He's producer Ra Joon Mo, currently on '2 Days, 1 Night'.

Oh, right. Where did you get assigned to? - I haven't been assigned yet.

Oh, really? Come to 'Entertainment Weekly'. I'm on that team.

I wonder if Joon Mo is home yet.

Oh! He is. That's Joon Mo's car.

I'm okay.

I can... move on fairly quickly if I feel it's not working out so...

Of course, I was shocked when I saw her this afternoon.

I am a human-being after all.

But, now, I'm really not bothered by it.

I sincerely hope the two of them can be happy.

Where you off to?

Oh, just outside for a bit. Someone's here.

Who?

- Just someone. - Must be a girl.

Who is it? Hae Joo?

Just ignore it for once.

You want people to ignore you, yet you broadcast your date in the broadcasting hall?

You were quite a sight to behold, really.

- You saw? - Everyone in the control room saw.

So, you're getting married this fall?

What are you saying? What marriage... It's not that kind of relationship.

Hae Joo goes around everywhere saying that you two are getting married.

If you let her be, seems like she'll get her wedding dress fitted soon.

Why is she going way ahead of me I already talked to her about it.

- You did? - I did. I texted her and told her very clearly.

'We should just work when we are at work.' like that.

- And then? - Then she replied.

'I like that professional side of you more. OK, OK. From now on, <3 <3 only when we're not at work.'

- Wow. - Right?

I think she lacks comprehension.

Who's going to understand you if you do it that way? Are you a dolphin?

Are you trying to communicate with ultrasound?

If you don't think she's it, then you need to make that clear to her.

But, when I have no clue what kind of women will appear in my future

- I can't exactly make such a clear distinction... - Tsk, tsk, tsk.

Okay, fine. I'll talk to her.

Guys like you are the worst!

You don't want to be the bad guy and always get someone else to do the dirty work.

Even with break-up's, there are manners.

I said I got it! Are you my wife? What's with the nagging...

You! A man should have a clean private life to be successful!

The worst obstacle to my clean private life is you!

And him!

The two of you are the stumbling block to my clean private life!

Oh, wait... What's wrong Joon Mo?

My sister got on your nerves again, right? What's wrong with you seriously!

Joon Mo, do I bother you? Then should I come home once every three days?

Can't you even cater to Joon Mo's feelings?

- Nothing happened between you two? - What sort of happenings?

Why do you think I always ring the door bell before I enter the door code?

Just in case you and Joon Mo have something going on.

- I'm just so well-mannered. - Crazy...

Seriously, we shouldn't forget.

This was our apartment, originally. We need to reclaim it.

As of now, the solution is for you to marry Joon Mo...
