The Secret Life of My Secretary (초면에 사랑합니다)

She should've just come along.

The buses might stop running soon too.

Mom.

You know, right?

I didn't fool him on purpose.

I do.

If I were alive,

I'd pour a glass of soju for you...

and we'd go to a karaoke room on a day like today.

I died too soon.

I'm sorry...

for making you worry even after you died.

It's a mother's job to worry about her children even after death.

But you see,

I think I'm a horrible person.

I didn't mean to fool him,

but maybe I did do it on purpose.

What are you talking about?

Actually,

I liked it a bit.

I liked how he put up an umbrella for me on a rainy day.

How he followed me around.

I knew it was all for...

Veronica Park,

the heiress of Park Group,

not Jeong Gal Hee, his lackey.

Still, I liked it.

It was nothing meaningful,

but he would've never treated me like that...

if I were just a secretary to him.

Go in now.

You might catch a cold.

You said...

you met your secretary on the day of the incident.

Your secretary said she went to her mom's house, one hour away.

When did you meet her?

We've got our hands on something very interesting.

Check this out.

Hwangcheon Villa at 12:10am.

Han River 17 minutes ago.

This proves...

that Secretary Lee Eul Wang visited her mom's house.

We've also secured...

the statement of the security guard who saw her that day.

How did you meet her?

I didn't say I met her.

I said I went to go meet her.

Eul Wang sounded unusual on the phone that day.

You call her by her name?

Do I have to talk about my privacy too?

Fine, go on.

Hello, Ms. Lee.

Ms. Lee?

Go straight 200m and turn left...

- on Hwangcheon Intersection. - Ms. Lee?

It seemed like she got into an accident.

She didn't answer her phone, so I got worried.

I took a taxi and went straight to Hwangcheon Intersection.

When I got there...

Your secretary wasn't there?

- No. - Dear.

We already checked the CCTV installed around that area too.

From 9pm,

not even a single taxi was captured in the security camera...

on the access street from Seoul to Hwangcheon Intersection.

That's possible.

Because the taxi driver got the wrong way.

Was it Ohwol-ri?

We approached the intersection from that direction.

Ohwol-ri?

There's an exit to that neighborhood before the intersection.

Did you check that place too?

They haven't installed any security cameras because it's too remote.

It may not be what you wanted, but I told you what I know.

Am I good to go now?

Don't you think it's strange?

It's natural for a secretary to go see their boss...

if something happens to them.

But he traveled an hour to see his own secretary...

in the middle of the night to see if something happened to her.

The life in the suite almost made me forget.

Right.

This is where I belong.

"This contract terminates..."

"when the contractee wants to."

It was my dream...

to be offered such a contract.

I wonder...

if they have met by now.

What? Why hasn't he called or anything yet?

I'm running late!

She's coming.

The heroine of the shareholders' meeting is back in the office.

She'll soon become the secretary of the next CEO.

The rising sun of T&T Mobile.

Jeong Gal Hee!

What is wrong with our heroine?

Her face looks so pale, not like the rising sun.

Hello, Mr. Do.

You're late.

You have something to tell me, don't you?

I do.

Where should I begin?

So yesterday,

when I went to the restaurant...

Mr. Do, what took you so long?

She already left.

You didn't get to meet her then?

She just left to attend business.

She said she'd contact you.

It must be her. Pick it up.

Okay.

Hello?

So did you meet her?

The story gets exciting from now on.

You're here.

Hold on.

What was Dr. Gu doing there?

Why did you meet him all of a sudden?

Gosh, you're getting so worked up...

that I want to make the story up.

Can't you tell me the ending first?

I have somewhere to go.

Consider it a commercial break.

Wait here with a sheet of blanket.

It has such a shocking twist...

that you might need some warmth as you listen.

Did he see her or not?

I'm sure he didn't.

If he had seen her, he would've thought it was really suspicious.

So why would he beat around the bush like that?

No, he saw her.

That must be why he mentioned the twist.

What else...

would be the twist of this story?

Did you have it ready? Where is it?

Is this it?

Goodness.

I should've listened to Dr. Park.

I said such a needless thing over the phone being drunk.

What are you talking about?

"If you raise your blood pressure,"

"you will be able to recognize people's faces."

I've heard the most shocking twist in my entire life.

The increased blood pressure will temporarily enable...

enough blood supply in your brain and cause the normal blood flow.

But it's just a plausibility, not a guarantee.

That is why I'm going to try.

From now on,

I'm going to focus on raising my blood pressure at all times,

even in my sleep if possible.

Blood pressure isn't like grades. You can't raise it with effort.

- What? - Besides,

you've never seen anyone's face ever since the accident.

No.

I've seen faces.

You have?

Once, it happened at the shareholders' meeting.

It was like...

I was bringing a camera...

into focus.

I was able to see people's faces clearly.

- There's more. - What is it?

But...

I wonder...

if I actually saw it that day.

I see you.

When was it? What were you doing?

Well, it was unintentional,

but like this.

I happened to...

hold a woman like this.

- Was it someone you like? - What?

Dr. Park treated a patient with the same disease.

She said the patient could clearly see the face of someone he loved.

Great. All right.

Your heart races when you're with someone you love.

The increased heartbeat...

naturally raises your blood pressure.

Love, my foot.

It must've been a dream.

What about the medicine?

That's too dangerous.

To raise the blood pressure in your brain,

you need to get a heart stimulant or a few 1L bags of IV fluid.

In that case, you might suffer from side effects...

pain in the chest, headache, or renal failure.

What is this?

Medical compression stockings.

Patients with a spinal injury...

wear them to treat orthostatic hypotension.

Are you telling me to wear them?

You told me to bring anything that could raise your blood pressure!

As you asked,

I made a list of situations that could raise your blood pressure.

And this is a portable blood pressure monitor.

Nice.

I wonder who you want to see...

by doing all this.

There is a face I must see.
