Graceful Friends (Elegant Friends / Wooahan Chingoodeul / 우아한 친구들)

What kind of person is he?

He's energetic about everything.

He's also righteous and cheerful.

In short, he's an amazing person.

He's very thoughtful,

and he can't stand to see other people suffering.

I'm older than him,

but he's so reliable that I want to rely on him like an older brother.

I don't know.

I guess the best way to put it is that in a world where people...

have a hard time finding happiness, he has it all.

He puts his life on the line in order to protect that happiness.

He has a bit of a temper,

but he's not the type of person to commit murder.

He loses his temper sometimes,

but he would never kill someone. Never.

He sometimes gets into a blind rage,

but I'm sure he didn't kill anyone.

Of course, he may have wanted to.

Hey. Over here.

Hey, Goong Cheol.

Goong Cheol. Oh, my.

What time did you get in?

Around 2am.

Or was it 3am?

It was 4am.

Were you late because you were raising sales for the new store?

What do you mean?

I have a moral responsibility to have a drink there.

I told you to take care of your health.

You used to never get drunk, but now you black out.

Don't you think there's a problem?

I had another dream where I fell.

It's the third time this month.

Don't you think that's strange?

My gosh, you're great at changing the subject.

I think that I'm psychologically unstable...

or nervous about something.

Or it could be an ominous sign that I'm going to get mixed up...

in a big incident soon.

What do you think as a psychiatrist?

If you want to get therapy,

get an appointment and come to the hospital.

You're so mean.

Are we strangers? I'm your one and only husband.

I want more coffee.

Here you go.

Dad. I want more milk.

Okay.

Here.

That's enough.

Didn't you say there's an event for the opening of the 1,000th store?

Yes. That's right.

The CEO has been complimenting me everywhere he goes.

I'm so embarrassed because of him.

He's always saying, "This is all thanks to Director Ahn."

"Without Director Ahn, we would've never opened our 1,000th branch."

"Director Ahn is like a gem in my life."

So? Is he going to reward you?

A reward?

He didn't mention that.

Anyone can compliment someone with words.

You must prove it with your actions.

Using your words is showing it with your actions.

What's so important about material compensation?

Material compensation...

is the just price of one's efforts.

Your CEO, who just compliments you,

and you, who's satisfied with those compliments despite working hard,

both seem irresponsible to me.

What? Irresponsible?

You know how important a father is to a child.

How could you call me irresponsible in front of him?

Are you okay with Yoo Bin seeing me as an irresponsible person?

He already watched and learned.

That's why he's irresponsible and satisfied with coming in last place.

He's not being irresponsible. He's being positive and optimistic.

What is this?

Are you going to work wearing that?

What's wrong with this outfit?

How can you... Your breasts are...

Your belly button and your breasts are...

You can see everything through your shirt.

I told you I have important plans tonight.

Plans? What plans?

You said you were going to a host bar tonight, right?

Why are you dressing like this to go there?

I don't want to be a married woman.

You're driving me crazy.

I barely allowed you to go to the host bar,

but you don't want to be a married woman?

Take that off and get changed while I'm being nice.

You barely allowed me to go?

Of course. What husband would allow...

his wife to go to a host bar easily?

It's because I'm nice enough to let you go.

Listen, Mr. Ahn Goong Chul.

Did I say anything to you when you were going to hostess bars?

It was because I went for business. I was entertaining clients.

I'm going for business too. To entertain clients.

Who said anything about that?

Don't drink too much there.

I don't like it when you feel sick.

Do you remember what I told you?

Pretend you're wiping your mouth and spit out the liquor.

And pretend that oolong tea is liquor and drink that.

Okay?

I'm not going to drink, so don't worry about me.

Jung Hae.

Let's get changed.

You look too racy right now.

It's not an appropriate outfit to entertain clients.

I'm late. I'm going to go.

Jung Hae. Nam Jung Hae.

Jung Hae. Hey.

Jung Hae, come here.

Jung Hae.

Let's get changed. - I won't be too late.

Jung Hae. Nam Jung Hae.

Hey. Are you really going to be like this?

I already got a call from Dr. Go.

I was told that the chairwoman has been feeling lonely...

as she's about to turn 60.

I'm not surprised.

That's why I reserved a nice place for the second round.

A nice place? Where?

I'll send you the address. I'll see you later.

Are you okay?

Yes. I'm fine.

There are a lot of cars here.

There's no need to be speeding here.

Cars aren't the only vehicles that are on the road here.

And I'm pretty sure you were above the speed limit too.

I was in a rush to get to work.

Give me a call if there are any problems.

No, thank you.

I think we're both at fault,

so let's take care of our problems on our own.

I'm also in a rush to get to work.

If it weren't for each and every one of you,

High Five Chicken would have never...

opened its 1,000th branch.

You guys are truly the gems...

of my life and High Five Chicken.

How was it? Wasn't my speech a bit lame?

Not at all. It was amazing, sir.

Really? - Yes.

Where's Director Ahn? Why haven't I seen him?

I believe he went to the 1,000th branch.

The 1,000th branch? - Yes, sir.

Gosh, darn it.

That punk is pretending like he's doing all the work.

It is an unrivaled... - Celestial taste.

It's the grand opening... - Of the 1,000th branch of...

High Five Chicken. - High Five Chicken.

Try to use up all the ingredients on that day.

If there are any ingredients left over,

make sure to seal them properly to maintain its freshness.

Yes, sir.

I'm sure you'll do just fine. - Yes, sir.

It's good. Everything's good here.

Don't worry too much, sir. - Of course.

Why didn't you go to the celebration party?

I'm not one for parties.

Keep up the good work. - Thank you.

Goodbye. - Goodbye.

Okay, guys. Go in.

I'll get going now.

Thank you for taking the time to help us out.

We won't forget your kindness and repay you for the rest of our lives.

Goodness, it's not a problem, ma'am.

Thank you so much, Director Ahn. - Thank you so much, Director Ahn.

I'm so happy to be able to work again.

For a few years after being forced into early retirement,

I would spend my days...

going to the Han River and sighing.

Hey, Goong Chul.

You're almost off work, right?

I'm in front of city hall, do you want to go together?

Sounds good.

Yes.

Yes. I'm almost done,

so give me a call when you get here. Okay. Bye.

It's been a while.

He's not human.

What? I'm not human? Then what am I? Am I an animal?

You're worse than an animal.

My skin sags even if I get Botox because of you.

I can't digest my food even if I take digestive medicine.

Did you hear how he talks to me?

The two of you...

are not following my instructions at all.

I asked you multiple times to remind yourselves of the good memories.

You continue to think of all the bad things,

and you continue to hurt yourselves during your therapy sessions.

You keep hurting each other before your wounds have healed,

so it's no wonder that your wounds have festered.

Do you want your festered wounds to heal,

or do you want them to rot and cut out?

Mr. Lee Jae Min.
