The Best Moment to Quit Your Job

"Yeonji's Box"

Can I help you?

- Hello. - Hi.

Is the president here?

You mean the principal? What is this about?

Um...

We wanted you to try out these wet tissues...

I'm from the factory.

Just leave it there.

- Have a good day. - You, too.

- Hello. - Hello.

- Can I have anti-anxiety pills? - Sure.

Hello.

- We're promoting these wet tissues... - No, thanks.

- Hello. - Hi.

We'd like you to try our wet tissues...

Goodbye.

- Hello. - What is it?

No, thanks. We're working.

Go.

- I'm back. - Hey...

Did you give out a lot?

Yes.

Anyone interested in ordering?

No. They said they'd contact us...

Yeah, right.

There's a new order. Start working on that.

Okay.

Yeonji!

Yeonji, say hi. This is my co-worker, Minseo!

Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you, too.

I heard a lot about you from Ms. Yoo.

I see...

Isn't Minseo pretty?

Stop it.

- Should we order some cake? - Yeah.

Bread?

Let's just order something.

Can I get everything?

I'll see you later.

- Good night. - Be careful.

Bye.

It was a little awkward, wasn't it?

No.

I wanted to introduce her to you.

Yeah.

You seemed a little uncomfortable...

I wasn't... Just a little tired, that's all.

Still, you could've cared a little more.

You're the only one I'm introducing her to.

I'm sorry.

There's just a lot going on at work.

Let's go!

Let's go!

This is Jungjin.

Yes, chief.

How can I help you?

Oh, okay, I see.

Okay.

What is it?

The chief wants to see me at the factory.

Go on, then.

Okay.

- Chief. - Yeonji.

I need your help with some factory business.

We have to send it out by today

but we're a little short handed.

You want my help?

The president got the orders to overlap,

and didn't tell us until the last minute.

You know we can't afford to have part-timers these days.

What can we do?

We have to help each other.

What do you want me to do?

Come with me and help tape up the boxes.

Come on.

Yeonji's here. Let's get to work.

Alright.

We don't have any clean cups.

I'm not the only one who has to do the dishes.

I've been working nights all the time these days.

I do dishes more than you do.

You're home all day.

Hey.

You think I do nothing all day?

I work, too!

Yeonji, how are you?

Good.

What about you?

The day after I talked to you on the phone...

I turned in my letter of resignation.

Resignation?

Yeah. I must have made quite a fuss about working at that place.

But you really wanted to be there.

And you worked really hard while you were there.

That's why I broke up with you.

I thought if I had a good career, I'd be happy.

I thought I'd save up enough money to buy my own house...

and get married...

I thought so, but...

Turns out that wasn't the case.

I feel like there's something more important than that.

I'm trying to find what it is.

I...

applied for a working holiday.

We talked about it, remember?

How we wanted to go to Australia.

I'd be able to make money there

and do a lot of other things, too.

Yeonji, will you come with me?

Yeonji.

I want to start seeing you again.

- Let's go. - Okay.

You should go now.

Okay. Think about it and call me.

I'll be waiting.

Minwoo.

Yes?

There was an accident.

An accident?

Yeah.

When I was in high school,

I was in a cab with my brother and it crashed.

I didn't know.

I've never told anyone.

I was fine after the crash

but my brother injured his legs very badly

and he could never play basketball again.

My father always had...

higher hopes for my basketball protégé brother than he did for me...

He even told me not to go to college.

He didn't want me to go to an art school that nobody knew about.

So I got a loan

and put myself through school,

thinking I could do something after that...

But, you know...

After graduating, I couldn't even find a job.

That's why I haven't been home in years.

That day...

I must have thought that

I should've been the one that got hurt, not my brother.

I'm sure I did.

My father...

my brother...

and I all thought that at some point...

Yeonji...

Minwoo.

I can't go to Australia.

I'm a designer at the planning office where I work

and I get a regular position next month.

I swore that when that happens

I'd finally go home and meet my family.

I'm going to do it.

"Hyun's Romance"

Miss Hyun.

Are you going home?

What about dinner?

Do you want to have dinner with me?

Are you skipping dinner again?

If you're not up for dinner,

how about coffee?

Miss Hyun?

Miss Hyun?

What are you going to eat?

What do you want to eat?

Have some more. Is there anything else you want?

- I've had enough. - Just a little more.

- Can we get a plate of tuna belly? - Tuna belly?

- Of course. - Thank you.

What?

Why are you being nice to me?

What do you mean, why? Because I like you.

What do you like about me?

I don't need a reason, do I? I just like you.

I don't know how you could like someone like me.

Am I not obvious to you?

What do you mean?

The older you get, the harder it is to hide it.

Hide what?

I can tell you grew up in a good, loving environment.

Always vibrant...

But isn't it obvious that my life was just the opposite of that?

I like it.

What?

I feel like there's a lot I can do for you.

Men are destined to take care of their family.

They have to be responsible

and like taking care of weaker people.

That's what I learned growing up.

- In the U.S.? - Yes.

- Here's your tuna belly. - Thank you.

Try it, Miss Hyun.

Open up!

Is it good?

Got it, got it! I got it... Oh, no!

No, no! This is definitely going to work.

Trust me. Let's try again.
