I Need Romance (Romaenseuga Pilyohae / 로맨스가 필요해)

Episode 4 = Where Did the Passion Go? =

A concierge was what they called servants in the Middle Ages.

A concierge is a type of servant who meets the personal demands of a hotel customer.

Yes, this is concierge Sunwoo In Young.

My shoelaces are broken. The Korean streets are so bad. What will I do?

Oh no.

I don't have any time. What am I gonna do?

Next week is my daughter's birthday. What should I get her?

Please get me two tickets to the Nutcracker ballet. Thank you.

Can you believe they don't make beef-bone noodle soup anymore?

In Young, why can't Koreans understand the deep flavor of beef-bone noodle soup?

Alex, there are other brands of ramen.

The types of ramen are more various than you think. I'll introduce you to some of them. Okay?

You promise?

Yes.

What is that?

Room 6013. It's the blouse Jessica's going to wear to the party.

We call ourselves a service center, but truth is, we only do errands.

This is all we do.

Don't you feel it's unfair when you see people pay so much money to spend a night here?

Hey. Is this how I taught you?

Who's the godfather of our profession?

Jesus. He washed the feet of all his disciples.

That's how you should think.

Being humble enough to lower yourself is the cornerstone of our profession.

Repeat. Obey.

But that's the problem. You can't always feel that way.

Aren't there days you want to give up?

35 years ago, the general manager carried serving trays just like us.

Don't overthink and sew the button unless you want to deal with Jessica.

I'm going to the servers' meeting...

O.O

How dare you in front of a woman?

What?

You just farted!

You're the one who...

It was you. Don't blame me.

Who else is in this room?

Wow. Really.

I've never farted in my life.

Next time, do it in the bathroom. Okay?

Sung Hyun is right.

Trying to be like Jesus is bound to be stressful.

But...

I have a night planned that will get rid of this stress once and for all.

Tehehe.

Once a month, I become a different woman for the night.

What should I wear?

Hey, wear this.

What is that?

Don't you know?

Is it a bra?

Haven't you heard of wearing a nude bra in place of a bra?

No.

She doesn't have to wear them.

You just put these on.

You put it over your bare skin.

Don't you know how great these are?

Men can't tell they're fake even if they feel them.

Are you speaking from experience?

Hey.

You know theory is my strong point.

They say that men have no idea how much the world of breast-enhancing bras have grown.

Just take a look at that cleavage.

Hey.

It enhances cleavage too.

They gather them together.

Am I right?

Mmmm, perfect for flat-chested A cups like you.

My breasts are literary.

Are they philosophical too?

Anyway, congratulations on calling your engagement off.

Hey.

That evil bastard.

What did he say?

I heard he ran away as soon as he saw her.

Tae Woo did track in junior high.

It's been a week since he's been missing.

Don't look for him anymore. He has another woman. I'm sure of it.

You'll only get hurt in the end.

But isn't there something wrong here?

Of course there's something wrong. That's why you separated.

You need beautiful form when you separate too.

For the sake of a new beginning.

Here she goes again.

But if you think of the time when they loved each other, don't you think this is wrong?

Where did that passionate love go?

Where do you think it went?

To another woman probably.

If you can't find me later, I'm probably having a one night stand.

How's it over there?

It's lame. I came to dance, but now they're talking about books.

Who's Orhan Pamuk? Dotorimuk's friend?

They're too slimy here.

The water is great here. Come over girls.

I'm in the VIP room.

There are enough guys for us all.

This gentleman is studying to be a political science professor at Columbia.

I'm Park Kang Ho.

Hello.

This over here is Ahn Ra Hee. She's a fashion model.

And doesn't this gentleman look very familiar?

Oh, I know. You write the Wine Club. Mr. Jang Ka Beng?

How do you know that?

Oh she works at a hotel...

Oh, she loves hotel wines so much.

Yeah.

Ah.

This is Kang Ae Ri. She's a ballerina.

Hello.

What do you guys think of my friends?

Aren't they pretty?

Where's the third guy?

The third guy's on his way.

They can't say his name because he's the descendent of a hotel owner.

Which hotel is it?

You should ask him yourself when he comes.

He's getting business administration training.

We also know someone who's a hotelier, don't we girls?

Right.

She's a concierge at RH Hotel.

Stop it.

You're here Sung Hyun.

Sorry.

26 year old ballerina, Kang Ae Ri.

Do you always lie like this outside the office?

Your breasts are out too.

You've dropped the honorifics.

Am I not an elder outside the office?

Yes, Madam Sunwoo In Young.

And what? A descendant of a hotel president?

You're related to our hotel president?

Sewing buttons as a concierge is training for business administration?

Oh my.

And why are you driving a car like that given your wage?

Whose car are you borrowing?

Who would lend a new car?

So this is your car?

You borrowed it from those guys right?

Those guys?

Those guys?

Oh.

I'm getting tipsy.

Stop! Stop!

Is this it?

We almost passed it.

Anyway thanks. Be careful on your way back.

Yeah.

Don't scratch this borrowed car.

By the way, don't be late tomorrow.

Fine. Go ahead.

Huh.

But how does he know where I live?

Hey, get a hold of yourself. You're drunk right now.

Yeah. He just drove me home.

Nothing happened.

Really?

It's really that expensive?

Really?

What kind of clothes are that expensive?

Okay, Hyun Joo. I'll hang up for now.

What is it?

I'm not late.

I hear you were wearing designer clothes yesterday?

Maybe.

The brand's not anything we carry in our duty-free.

Your shoes, even your watch are the all the best brands.

So what? What's your point?

Why spend money on all that given your salary?

Oh my! What's this?

Sit up straight and look at me.

I'm telling you this because I've thought of you as my younger brother this past year.

Think of this as advice from your older sister.

You look down on a lot of our hotel guests, don't you?

Those fancy things at the duty-free catch your eye, don't they?

Whenever I go there, I feel my shoes are just slippers and my purse is just a plastic bag.

But I'm serious this time. Listen well, okay?

You think our employers won't get fired for going in and out of duty-free shops?

I know our salary doesn't seem like much based on what our customers spend.

But there are a lot of people who live off of $800 a month.

Be grateful and don't waste money.

Don't give your generation a bad name by becoming greedy.

Then what about you?

That clutch you had last night.

That clutch is as expensive as your paycheck.
