Queen of Reversals

Episode 9

Hey.

What's happening?

Don't know.

Might be an intrusion by a mad guy.

Hey, who are you?

Why intrude on other's wake?

Get up, quick.

Get up before I call the police.

Hey!

Why hide behind the screen?

Please co-operate.

Really.

How to explain this?

Except he must be mad.

Really.

Joon Soo.

It's been a while. Hi!

How come you're here?

What's going on?

Oh... that...

You said you had to attend your friend's mother wake.

This is the wake?

Oh... that...

It's not what you think.

Then why hide behind the screen?

I'll explain.

But first leave this room for I need to tidy up.

Explain?

What?

I'm the bereaved family, aren't you kinda rude?

Yes.

Please help me to tidy up.

Yes.

Let go of me.

What are you up to?

Why are you here?

You told me your friend's mother passed away.

Wait, wife, wait.

Is Baek Yeo Jin your friend?

How close you were to fooling me into buying her things.

You know how silly you looked just now?

Taking cover behind a screen

and fell forward - shameful.

Don't hit, let's talk.

Are you the son-in-law of the deceased?

Your wife's family?

Would you have done the same for my family?

You won't.

Really.

I knew about it when we met for business matters.

She has no other family.

So I helped her.

She's rather pitiful.

Really so honorable?

Why hide like a rat caught stealing sweet?

What're you afraid of?

Rat? You liken your husband to a rat?

I'm not sure you're my or somebody else's husband.

Always using business as excuse.

What business have you got with her?

I'm not surprised that he had to go into hiding.

What did you just say?

What he said was true.

We met because of business matters.

and saw that I was flustered with news of my mother's death.

He assumed to help me.

After all I was once his superior.

I wondered why he scampered to hide seeing you.

Isn't that scary?

I might seem nosy.

Your relationship is strange, unlike a normal couple.

You're nosy all right.

We were a fine couple with no problems.

Till you became his boss and our quarrels started.

How do you explain that?

What exactly was the business you met to discuss?

To let him come back to the company.

You are saying he's...

What? Re-employment?

We're hiring past employees who worked

at least a year with us.

I've a vacant post in my department.

So I recommended Joon Soo.

Is it true?

Of course.

Why didn't you tell me?

Because it's still uncertain.

The Director has approved.

It's now up to him.

The Director has approved?

Yes.

The Director is here.

I got it.

Come, Joon Soo, let's meet the Director.

She might want to talk to you personally.

You object to his re-employment?

No, how could I?

Go, quick.

Your name was added in at the last minute.

By Goo Yong Shik.

Long time no see, Goo Yong Shik..

Indeed, how are you?

I've went through much more, thank you.

I'm more thankful hearing that.

Let's go, Joon Soo.

I was briefed by Baek Yeo Jin.

Have you decided?

Give me more time to decide.

Still contemplating?

Tell me after you decide.

I'm curious about something.

What?

I would like to know the reason behind your decision to re-employ me.

A satisfied lion would live tamely.

A lion starved till eyes sunken, stomach growling.

Would turn ferocious.

It's flicking tail stiffened, muscles tautened.

And wild predatory instinct kicked in.

You had been trampled mercilessly.

And been to hell.

A capable man is no match for a ravenous man.

This is the reason for giving you a chance.

If I guess right.

You're ready to combat with unsurpassed energy.

If you turn out as good as I expect,

I'd take you under my wing.

Why'd Director favor Joon Soo? Is it because...

Our department is re-employing former staff.

Could it be...

Couldn't be, former staff are a different category.

Joon Soo has poor results.

Besides there're many others, he won't be selected.

Thank you.

Take care.

Without you I couldn't manage.

Don't say that.

Yeo Jin.

Eun Young, you were informed of this too?

Yes, you brat.

This is serious, why didn't you call me?

Are you okay?

Thanks for coming, let's go in.

You go.

Aren't you Joon Soo?

You don't remember me?

I'm Yeo Jin's high school classmate, Yoo Eun Young.

Yes, we met before a few times.

I thought you were separated.

Still together?

When are you going to tie the knots?

You're not getting younger.

We have to leave soon.

You go home.

Yes.

When did you start discussing re-hiring with her?

Not long ago.

Didn't you intend to go into business?

The person who said I failed in everything, wasn't that you?

I called you yesterday because of that.

So Ra's college fund.

20 million won.

Taking it out would sacrifice the interest.

This is the only cash we have.

Why are you like this?

You needed the money.

Why suddenly?

You had always opposed strongly to my ventures.

My re-employment has changed you overnight.

No. I'm not.

I called you yesterday to give you this.

Too late, I went to the shop to apologize to the boss.

And returned brother-in-law's money.

Anyway, this money can't help at all.

You were always pushing me to get a job.

And even wanted me to accept part-time at Queen's.

Baek Yeo Jin abruptly wanted to re-hire you.

And got it approved by Director, isn't it strange?

Strange?

You were barely sacked and re-hired.

Isn't it suspicious?

Could there be other motive?

Are you implying that.

The company wasn't eyeing the my capabilities.

It was some thing else.

I didn't mean that.

Then don't pour cold water on me.

In your eyes I'm not as good as Goo Yong Shik.

Or am I good in anything at all.

I never think that way.

You refused to let me try anything, remember?

Well, I'm going to do everything.

I'll be re-employed and do as I desired.

After achieving recognition.

I'd rise further, became stronger.

Until I'd have no more fear of being fired or trampled.

I won't be despised by my wife.

When have I despised or insulted you?

You don't even know when you insulted me?
