Miss Monte-Cristo (Miss Montecristo / Miseu Montekeuliseuto / 미스 몬테크리스토)

Mom, I'll take this scenario.

With this, I can show all my charms as an actress.

The main character is a female detective who digs into mysterious cases.

She has multiple personality disorder. Eight different personalities.

All the characters are so vivid too.

Isn't this so great?

Just the thought of it thrills me.

I could win the best actress award at the Cannes Festival.

Take a breather.

You're excited like a kid.

Do you love it that much?

Yes. This scenario will turn my life around.

It's a once-in-a-lifetime scenario an actress can have.

I will do everything to get you the main role...

and get Director Choi to sign a contract.

Thank you, Mom!

By the way,

Hwang Ji Na must know...

about you blaming Ga Heun for your miscarriage.

Will she accept my co-investment offer?

Mom, please make it work. I really want this part.

If I miss it, I'll regret it for the rest of my life.

Okay. Don't pester me.

I'll convince them.

It's so corny.

Hi.

I see some newcomers.

Do you guys just want to watch?

She's talking informally.

What's with her?

Not everyone can join Dongdaemun Queen's guerrilla chat.

Only the celebrities in fashion recognized by me can join.

You should be honored.

All right.

New York, Paris, and Milan are the fashion capitals.

What's the fashion capital in Korea?

Right. It's Dongdaemun.

Then who's Dongdaemun Sold-out Queen?

That's me. Dongdaemun Queen.

Why is she so confident?

Are you all ready to see today's new arrival?

It'll be sold out in a flash,

so stay alert.

Today's new arrival is this unique dress.

That's the design I've always dreamed about.

There's only one piece.

It starts from 1,000 dollars.

I won't miss a piece today.

It's so cool!

She auctions clothes from Dongdaemun?

Is this really happening?

- I call 1,500 dollars. - I call 2,000 dollars.

Two thousand and two hundred dollars.

Three-thousand dollars.

Three thousand and fifty dollars.

I double it. Seven-hundred dollars.

Yes! It's mine.

Okay. It's sold for 7,000 dollars.

Chameleon, you have a good eye for fashion.

It's 7,000 dollars?

Is everyone here crazy?

Did you see how good I was?

See you again at the next auction.

I can't believe it.

She's here.

She's Madam Black.

I heard so much about you.

You're so-called Mighty Hand.

Whatever you invest in, it's the jackpot.

Can I ask you for advice on investing?

Don't touch me.

Who is this guy with a bad vibe?

He's the owner of this building.

You know how sensitive I get before making an important investment.

How could you let an ominous thing like him in?

Get him out of my sight right now.

I apologize. He wanted to meet you badly.

Our investment group...

What? Did you even mention that?

Do you want to get kicked out?

No, ma'am. I'm sorry.

Mr. Ju, let's leave.

Hold on.

Madam, can you give me advice on investing?

Please grant me some advice, ma'am.

Dr. Choi!

Madam!

Oh, dear. Madam!

Please grant me a blessing.

Are you all right, Deok Gyu?

Yes, I am.

Now that he learned not everyone can join,

he would feel rushed.

Do you think so? Close the clinic for a while and don't take his calls.

Okay.

I've set a trap for the revenge.

I should make them walk into it.

Ha Jun and Chief Hwang are paired...

and Se Rin and Manager Cha are partners.

Yes. There will be three competitions.

First, we'll be competing for the best design...

to represent Mapsy Rhino.

It'll set the main design format for the new brand.

How will the competitions go?

Ha Jun, you explain it to me.

I'm sorry? Me?

Each team will pick three designs.

We will have our store managers judge them.

They will rate each design...

and we pick the best design. The best Rhino.

Store managers know what customers like better than anyone,

so this contest is a must.

I like that.

By the way, Ha Jun drafted this plan?

Yes. Director Oh's draft was well-written.

It's nothing.

I only spent half a day on it.

You can do a good job when you're determined.

Why haven't you been wasting your talent?

It wasn't fun enough for me to show what I've got.

But this one was quite fun.

Let's go with this plan.

If you become the winner,

everyone on the team will be promoted.

What?

Are you serious?

Why are you so surprised?

There should be a reward to compete for.

I hope Ha Jun will take this chance to become the president of Jewang Group.

Manager Cha could be the president.

If I win,

can I get the executive team manager position back?

Of course.

I'll bet my position.

Chief Hwang, why did you do that?

If you think about it, you're the real bomb.

You're unpredictable.

Ms. Ju needs a reward to compete for too.

Are you saying it was on account of me?

You don't think I can get my position back?

How absurd.

Se Rin seems very competitive too.

Chief Hwang, let's discuss our strategy.

See you in my office.

Ms. Hwang.

Can we talk for a moment?

Why did you want to see me?

I've given it some thought.

I thought about what you wanted to say last time.

I asked myself why you thought I was a coward.

But I couldn't find an answer.

Why were you mad at me?

Do you really not know?

Tell me.

No matter how hard I think,

it's not just because you were made about my wife.

What did I do wrong to you?

You're mistaken.

I don't have anything against you.

Is that it?

Yes.

Okay. Let's say that's true.

Why did you bet your position?

Did you really have to be that reckless in this competition?

Why the heck did you do that?

Do I even need to explain it to you?

You and I are not on the same team. We're enemies.

We're competing against each other.

I'm not finished.

Why are you doing this to me?

What did you do wrong?

You can't know until you die.

That's the punishment I impose on you.

How could she put her position on the line without discussing it with me?

Did she forget how hard I worked to get her there?

How could she risk it just like that?

But she did look so attractive when she did that.

Does this mean...

I'll have to take care of her in the future?

Ms. Hwang!

Have a seat.

I've been thinking this over.

We must crush it in the first round.

To do that, the design will be very important.

You will need good inspiration to come up with a good design.

Let's do our market research perfectly...

to analyze our target customer preferences for fashion.

That's a good idea.

Pardon?

You don't look like you like it though.

Did anyone make you unhappy again?

Who was it this time?

Was it my step-mother? Was it Ju Se Rin?

No. It's nothing like that. Don't mind me.

Also, you can do as you'd like about what you just mentioned.

You can't leave like this.

I really will do as I wish, then.

Let's go and do what I want to do.

I saw you sleeping in Hoon's room again last night.

You didn't even see me before coming to work today.
