EPISODE 8

Did you come to get something?

Actually, I didn't come to get anything.

Then what is it?

I came to apologize.

Ms. Kang, please sit.

I was just worried that I had hurt your feelings earlier.

I couldn't forget that look on your face.

I was just…

looking for an answer.

Why did I feel hurt?

It was just work, but why did I feel that way?

If it had been Mr. An

or Ah-young instead,

would I have felt the same?

It's because it was you.

I can't stay in the gray zone.

No.

I don't want to.

Well, I…

The interior looks okay, right?

Yes.

Look at the time. I have to go.

-Okay. -Don't see me out. It's cold outside.

Okay.

-Good night, Ms. Kang. -Okay.

MOM MAKE TIME TO ATTEND OUR FAMILY GATHERING

What's this? Are you going somewhere?

What brings you here at this hour?

I need to check something. Let's head up.

Hold on.

This isn't my house anymore.

Let's talk outside.

House swapping?

Yes.

By the way, what did you want to check?

Are you and Ms. Kang dating?

Since when?

It's not like that.

Then you two are just swapping houses?

Did he leave something behind?

Did you leave something…

Thank you.

You two swapped houses?

Yes.

But Ki-jun's belongings are still here.

We just agreed to swap houses,

not officially move in.

What's going on between you two?

I'm sorry.

It seems unlikely that colleagues would swap houses casually.

Mr. Noh kindly made me this offer.

"Kindly"?

I'd been living in the same house since I got divorced.

Then, by any chance, did the two of you…

The two of us?

We're like the square root of two.

An irrational number.

A number that can't be written as the ratio of two integers.

As an investor, I hate it.

It never follows a pattern because it's a non-repeating decimal.

Yes, it's geometric.

But it's also infinite.

That's why errors occur.

Because it's not the actual value but an approximate value.

You're right.

But the actual value aims to identify the error,

while the approximate value seeks to minimize it.

Just as I thought.

We never stood a chance.

You knew this already.

I just wanted to confirm it.

Just so you know, there's no going back.

Okay.

The green one is now sold out.

Never mind.

What's the wine for? I assume you didn't bring it to share.

That's right. It's for someone else.

See you later.

Did you two have a financial transaction?

Excuse me?

No, not at all.

We just decided to swap houses, nothing more.

Why do you ask?

The Noh Ki-jun I know isn't kind just to anyone.

-Really? -Yes.

People tend to think the opposite of him

since he's been divorced three times.

Right, I'm sure there's some bias…

But it's not because he's thoughtless.

It's because he's overly responsible.

He's afraid the other person might be unhappy because of him.

Or that they'll become unhappy.

That became his standard, which is why he has none, like his name.

He puts up walls because he's aware of this.

But look at this punk now.

Anyway, welcome.

-You two really are best friends. -Yes, we are.

That's pretty hot.

Are you okay?

I'll get going now so that you can rest.

Oh, and this is a welcome gift.

-Here. -Thank you.

-Enjoy. -Thank you.

-Take care. -Don't see me out.

I can't stay in the gray zone.

No.

I don't want to.

ONSAEM KOREAN MEDICINE CLINIC

Jeez, you scared me.

Why are you standing there like a ghost and scaring people?

I'm hungry. Hurry up and give me dinner.

Why are you so slow?

Hurry up and come upstairs!

Goodness, just go ahead.

I didn't expect to see you here.

Neither did I.

Were you here to see Mr. Noh?

Yes. What about you, Ms. Jeon?

In a way, I came to wipe the slate clean.

Did you resolve everything?

Yes, completely.

That's good.

Would you like to drink this together?

Or maybe not because I didn't give a 24-hour notice.

No.

You're welcome anytime, 24 hours a day.

I feel so relieved to hear you say that.

Shall we go?

Why is the soup so salty?

And why is this so bland?

Are you listening to me?

I am.

Then why won't you answer?

Because we're divorced now.

From now on, season your own food

and make sure to chew thoroughly.

There she goes again.

Aprons…

One apron.

Two aprons.

Three aprons.

Four aprons.

Five aprons.

Six aprons.

Seven aprons.

ACTUARY NOH KI-JUN ARE YOU SLEEPING?

NOT YET, I JUST GOT IN BED

MR. AN WAS…

ACTUARY NOH KI-JUN

Hello?

I didn't wake you, did I?

No, not at all.

What can I do for you?

I just wanted to know if the bed was comfortable.

It's very comfortable.

-I was wondering… -I was wondering…

You go first, Ms. Kang.

You asked if you were a coward regarding Ms. Woo's case.

If you're a coward, then I'm an even bigger one.

What made you think that?

Facing the truth is too difficult,

so I've always tried to avoid it.

The same goes for Ms. Woo's case.

I guess I wanted to avoid it again

because I didn't want to worry about her.

It's natural to think that way.

As long as your feelings are genuine,

that's all that matters.

Then…

When you said you don't want to be in the gray zone…

Can I assume that our relationship is now closer to four than three?

Because I'd like that very much.

Me too.

I aim to minimize the margin of error going forward.

"The margin of error"? How do you plan on doing that?

I'll have to collect more data

on Kang Han-deul.

Ms. Kang?

That's the kind of response a skilled actuary would give.

Right.

So what do you want on your toast tomorrow?

Whatever you want, Ms. Kang.

They might as well just date.

What are they even playing at, acting like some kids?

They're being more careful because they're not some kids.

Is that it?

To be honest, I was confused.

I wanted to check and make sure.

That's why I kept asking.

Ask what?

"What is this residual feeling I have?"

But it turned out to be spite.

Not regret or lingering feelings.

I see.

I'm being serious.

Don't tell me you're being nice because I'm your boss.

Don't tell me you thought I was showing good social skills.
