Song-ja was helping Pil-Seung to escape from Busan to Seoul.

Oh Pil-Seung.feeling hungry and he lost the money because his pocket had HOLE!

He bumped into someone and his coins were on the floor

She was the one who bumped him.

She in druken-state thought that he stole her bag.In the result,they were in police station.
Her family came and took her away.At the same time,they invited him to sleep at home at goodwill due the fact that she bullied him and he knew her brother,Jin-pyo.

Soon-young having a piss in the toilet in the next early morning.

There is one more person in the toilet.Pil Seung was bathing in the toilet too.

After Soon-young done her stuff,both of them saw each other.She screamed and whacked him badly.

Another man appeared between their lives.Yoon Jae-woong
Before that,Soon-young got him a job to work at West Market store.
Jae-woong bumped Soon-young and Pil-seung was not happy with him.
And so Pil-seung beated him up for his behaviour asking her to have one night stand with him.

Ko Byung-chul.Manager of West Market
He was so furious that he want to sack him for fighthing Jae-woong(Marketing chief)

Supervisor of West Market(left)
He pleaded with manager of west market that Pil-seung only started on his first day of work.

You can see this chairwoman's home.Grand and hugh
Chairwoman's assistant(jae-woong's father) hired private investigator and he told chairwoman that he found where Pil-seung is after he fail to bring Pil-seung to chairwoman at Busan because Pil-seung mistooked him as loanshark.

Soon-young'sfather and mother,Bong Chang-soo and Park Ok-ja

Bong Jin-pyo,brother to Bong Soon-young

Vice-president,Mr Min and his two assistants.They were in scheme to get Mr Min to become CEO(president) of the Chiogo Group.

Soon-young screamed and scolded him because he didn't work in the afternoon.However,he was so happy to hear her nagging him.

Soon-young was happy talking with Pil-Seung

Jae-woong asked her whether it was him because he was jealous after he saw Soon-young and Pil-seung enjoying each other just now.

Suh Young-gook(wearing black suit).Jae-woong's father,Yoon Sung Hoon assigned him to be Pil-Seung's chaffeur.Before that,he brought Pil-seung to see chairwoman and after an interview,chairwoman decide to bring him in Chiogo group as a director despite of having no education and dubious background.

Soon-young told him off angrily at night before Pil-Seung became director in Chiogo Group overnight the next day.It was because he want to know what she would do if he became a director.It was obvious that he was hopeful to hear that she would like him.

Noh Yoo-jung,Pil-Seung's assistant and he addressed her as teacher.

Soon-young screamed and scolded him again but then his assistant was on the phone instead.

Huh Song-ja finally arrived Seoul to see Pil-Seung

Song-ja stormed in the company office and kissed straight away to Pil-Seung in front of directors.

As Song-ja just arrived Seoul,Pil Seung tried to get Jin-pyo to let her stay in his home.With his rejection,he walked off and bumped Song-ja who just entered in the cafe.

As Jin-pyo looked her shyly,Song-ja looked at him in angry pose.
Pil-seung took the advantage to encourage Jin-pyo to take her home.It was obvious that he had a crush on her.

Pil-Seung's mother in law.She was so sad looking at her natural son's picture because he died so suddenly.

Soon-young was prepared to wear lingere and asked someone(Pil-Seung) to switch off the light.She went out of the room and walked forward to him in dark.Unknowingly,both of them kissed.
They were discovered by Jin-pyo,Song-ja and jae-woong.

Soon-young was worried because she kissed Pil-seung as she was going steady with Jae-woong.

Soon-young was crying as Pil-seung vowed that he would not do it again.

Pil-seung asked her to behave like lady and she insisted him to keep quiet because she was buying him a meal.

Song-ja smirked at Soon-young.

Awww,what a sweet family.

Pil-seung kneeled in front of chiogo group building because he wanted to get back Soon-young's job.She was sacked by chairwoman because the media caught Pil-seung having dinner with Soon-young at roadside stall.

Yoo-jung begged chairwoman to give the job back to Soon-young in the next morning.
chairwoman was reluctant to restore Soon-young back to work.

Due to scheme by Mr Min,the whole staff from West Market heard the rumour that the west market was going to close down.Pil-Seung did not want to close down the west market because Soon-young was working there.The chiogo group agreed to give him an ultimatium to raise the revenue by 10% in 6 weeks.

Staff from west marker were in disbelief because they knew that it was impossible.
(classmates,as we see this 10% as small number thing because of its number.But it is big thing and hard to achieve in real-life situation.That is why we are fucking learning costing)

Pil-seung brought Mr Min and his two assistant to small resturant.Pil-seung didn't know that they were behind the scheme of spreading this rumour to media.

Mr Min rejected the offer and wanted to walk out.Upon him seeing Ok-ja,his expression changed


He saw Ok-ja.He loved her so much and u can see his expression like he had not seen her for a long time.

They saw Mr Min.They instantly recognised him!

Mr Min quickly walked out of their resturant giving them no chance to talk with him.

While the west market staff is on strike,he decided to show an example by doing the storing work.This way,he would inspired them to co-operate with him.He suggested that expensive import goods is one of the reason and so he want to store more local goods.

Pil-seung talked a plan to prevent west market into closure.All staff was motivated to work.

Pil-seung worked so hard to help out in west market despite of his status as director.He ate instant cup noodles and invited Soon-young to eat together.

Pil-seung encouraged her to eat roadside foods.It was unusual for her because she ate resturant foods.That is why high class people like her would cover whenever they eat.



West market female staffs passed out papers to housewifes outside the store.

Pil-seung promoted on west market product.He encouraged the old man to sample more free foods.

whole staff and Pil-seung joined their hands to increase the determination and morale.


During the meeting of director,the west market staff entered with permission and passed the papers that contain signatures of west market staff indicating that they were willing to forego bouns and increament but they only take basis pay until the objective was reached.

directors and shareholders were shocked after hearing it.

west market staff asked them for a chance.
As they managed to get 8% increase,Pil-seung suggested that there is a good chance to reach the actual objective given more time.

west market staff and Pil-seung bowed in front of all directors,shareholders and chairwoman.
And then,the directors approved and they have 6 months to do it.

Pil-seung asked one of those shareholder whether he was the one eating free foods at west market as passer-by.Of course,he was!
And just now in the board of director/shareholder meeting,he rallied most of them to agree Pil-seung proposal.

Jin-pyo went to see Jae-woong and asked jae-woong how much he love his sister,Soon-young.Jae-woong was drunk and was brought home by Jin-pyo.The next morning,they had breakfast together and Pil-seung was happened to drop by.Jae-woong and Pil-seung fought each other secretly.

Soon-young was worried and concerned.

Pil-seung arrived in the resturant at 7pm but the others had appointment to do until they came at 10pm.Soon-young used her hand to push Pil-seung into the cake.

Pil-seung was so happy that Soon-young was around to celebrate his birthday.

Pil seung believe in respecting elders and being filial.He went into charwoman/his grandma's room and massaged her leg with cloth that is dipped into hot water.
It was the second time.

Amist the rumour of Pil-seung is not true heir of the family,he left home and lost his bag.He asked the policeman to let him to sleep in police station as he needed one to sleep.

Soon-young was crying as she asked him to give her up after she realised that he liked her when pil-seung's assistant told her about it.

Woah.Look this picture carefully.it is train in seoul.Cushion chairs!

Pil-seung prefer to go his assistant because he trusted her a lot.He cried as he couldn't get himself to seperate from Soon-young.

The next or two episode(s)..Soon-young was anxious and worried and so she went to wet market where Pil-seung was working.Again,she bumped him.

Once again,he dropped the coins.Soon-young fnally found him among the busy crowd in wet market.

Soon-young realised that Jae-woong was not the one she want.Upon hearing 'I love you' from Jae-woong,she didn't feel anything.She decided to allow Pil-Seung to be with her again because she kept on thinking of him!WOOT!

After hearing her approval,he was so happy and delighted.

During his absence as director,he had to come out and went to the suppliers who chiogo group have been buying goods from them.Because Jae-woong gave them no chance to neogitate the contract as they wanted better terms.He was so arrogant that he prefer them to abide his terms.

Pil-seung decide to confront the issue of that Joo-young liked him after he avoid her for few days because he didn't know what to do.Joo-young knew he loved Soon-young dearly and pretend to say why she would like him.And then,mPil-seung asked his assistant how to dance.She danced with him.On his back,she cried quietly because she secretly loved him and did not want to tell him about it.
She also taught him when to hold soon-young's hand tightly(girls love it) and let her to trust him(not to ask her to trust him).It proved to be successful as he did it with soon-young.Soon-young was comfortable with him unlike being with jae-woong.

Song-ja changed her hairstyle.

After winning the position of CEO/President,chairwoman showed dna result paper to Pil-seung.

On the day Pil-seung would become president,he decieded to quit after 3 weeks from winning in the election.He said:
Thank you for recognizing
a flawed man as the president of the Choigo Group.
To be honest...since I left Busan...
It has been dreamlike for me.
And I stand here
because of those dreams.
There are many people who deserve applause more than I.
People who taught me
I'm not alone in the world...
Those of you who treated me like family...
And Teach... whom I'll never forget as long as I live.
And a friend(Jae-woong) I couldn't hate no matter how hard I tried...
Through their eyes, I've had a chance to look at myself.
And through their hearts,
I've learned to cherish myself more.
When you get to know me,I'm not all that special.
I only became special because you made me special.
There are many people like me in this world.
Please give all of them your warm encouragement.
I'm sure they'll do a much better job than I.
I'm very grateful for the past few months.
I'll never forget them as long as I live.
I'm happiest when I'm thrown into the world.
I'm leaving so I can be happy.
The past... three months...
I've had a lot of fun.

the audiences clapped!

it was the last glimpse of him in the show as he left.

at the end of story,one-night-stand lady asked him to bed with her but he rejected and asked her to leave out of his car.He began to believe love.

Again,another similar fate happened to Jae-woong.After that,he was smiling and knowing that such meetings are the fate and destiny of love.Because before that,he did the same way with Soon-young.

Song-ja became pregnant with Jin-pyo.Time will prevail as they got the chance to get approval from Jin-pyo's parents.
Meanwhile,Soon-young went to Busan to see Pil-seung.

finally,Seoul in daylight
Thoughts of this story:
Awesome story with meaningful ending.
i wish i am Oh Pil-Seung.
I don't mind all those happy,sad,tear-jearking incidents as long as i can be with someone.No matter how time stretch,the love direction is always fixed as fate and destiny proved it so.
He was so patient whenever Jae-woong was steady with Soon-young at that time.
Brilliant!
Conclusion:
You can do the same.
If you really don't know what to do,give yourself a day of thought and talk with him/her.Be brave and don't try to avoid it every day.
I am sure that someone who receive from his/her friend who avoid them like plague will be hurt more.Have more confidence that they are willing to resolve it with you.
Fate and destiny of love is so powerful that you can't resist it!
For me,i will wait until it tell me and it is hard for me to know someone like me secretly.It happened to me few times when i was young.
It was good thing that i softly rejected them and i don't want to avoid them like plague.
When i was growing,i learnt not to bear any grudges.You should learn it as well.
