No relationship in the world is perfectly equal.
Intentional or not, when two people meet, power always shifts to either of them.
Maybe we all have these hidden desires
either to dominate or to submit to someone.
And I'm wondering if you have
one of these desires in your heart that you can't reveal.
-Jung Jihoo. -Yes?
You clocked in the first on your first day!
Good morning.
Right.
I didn't mean you, Jiwoo, but Jihoo.
Hello.
In Mr. Yang's place,
our PR team has Jung Jihoo, aka Mr. Perfect from the business team.
Nice to meet you!
Welcoming applause!
By the way, Jung Jihoo and Jung Jiwoo.
Very similar names.
It can be confusing when addressing you two.
Why would it be? Their job titles are different.
Let's have a team dinner after work.
Which one do you prefer? Lamb chop or lamb chop?
Lamb chop.
Sir, lamb chop sounds good, but we maxed out our company card.
And we haven't cleared up the issue about the YouTuber you mentioned before.
No, Jiwoo.
We have the issue only because you personally hate him.
He has so many subscribers.
It wouldn't be right
to have someone who is homophobic in educational shows.
I wouldn't say he's homophobic. He just said it made him uncomfortable.
Sir.
Why don't you rethink if he can be risky
as your decision can reflect the image of our channel?
Jiwoo, be more like him.
If you must kill the efficiency of the meeting
with an issue that's already been discussed,
at least try to be polite like him, with a smile. Isn't it nice?
Being nice and cute works in many ways.
Sir,
did you say "cute"?
What I mean is our work is all about teamwork,
so let's keep a nice working environment.
This kind of stuff is hard since we have many girls here. Gosh.
It's odd how you react to what he said. My old team wouldn't tolerate it.
What do you mean?
Sir, didn't you know? It can be considered as sexual harassment.
Pass! We were testing his gender sensitivity, weren't we?
For me, you passed!
Then,
I have an idea.
Why don't Mr. Jung and Jiwoo, who's always on the ball, work together
on making a potential casting list?
I can't wait.
Thanks for the coffee.
Let's have another farewell party soon.
-My treat. -He has a fan club.
He has a look that says he's well aware that everyone loves him.
-You don't care for a man like him either? -I do.
-I'm interested. -Really?
-Why is he looking this way? -Seriously?
For real?
Hi, Mr. Popular.
No, they're colleagues from the old team.
Well, Jiwoo…
Yes?
I want to say it's good you stopped a casting disaster.
I believe the PR team needs to catch up with the world.
-Thank you. -I hope we get along.
See you later at the meeting.
Interested? But you don't even blush.
-It's not like I'll do anything about it. -Do what? What do you mean?
How far were you thinking?
Nothing like that at all.
Hey,
do something about the look in your eyes if you ever want to date.
At the change of the seasons, you don't sleep well and feel heavy…
Did he smile at you? Still, never give him an upper hand.
Never ever tell him you like him before he does.
Guys lose interest if girls do that.
Mom, all I said was he's cute. That's all.
Hey, cute guys rarely come by, especially at work.
Well, that's true.
Anyway, why can't girls say how they feel first?
Are we in 1920 or something?
That rule will still apply even in 2220.
Men have this instinct to hunt.
They chase girls and then eat them up. It's their desire to dominate.
Am I a prey, like a rabbit?
Geez.
-And women used to hunt too! -That look again!
Then go back to hunting,
or do something about your boring life.
-Thank you. -Sure.
It can't be. I got a text last night saying it's here.
Nothing for the business team.
No, I'm now in the PR team.
-The PR? -Yes.
I guess that one was for you, Mr. Jung Jihoo.
Someone took it.
What? Who?
Sorry about that.
Oh please!
Jiwoo, hold on!
Ta-da!
It's for my dog.
You know, it's mandatory to have a leash.
I'm sorry. I thought it was for me.
I guess it happened because we have similar names, right? Wrong side.
Your dog's name is Miho?
That's right!
Miho. Isn't it a nice name?
Miho is a girl.
-A poodle, three years old. -Okay.
It seems too big for a poodle.
Obviously, you've not seen her. Her neck has bulked up…
Like this, you know?
I see.
-Let me get the leash. -Sure.
I'll throw this out for you.
No, let me!
THE LARGEST SM ADULT SHOP IN THE COUNTRY
15% OFF FOR RE-PURCHASES
Paper is recyclable.
Let me throw them away.
Why throw away the coupon?
You have…
excellent vision.
-Enjoy your lunch. -Enjoy your lunch.
What? There's a pervert?
-A pervert? -He's a pervert?
Mr. Jung, are you okay?
Okay, let's protect our school from the pervert.
Doongi doongi, change!
It's okay. I'm fine.
Let's see where the pervert's hiding!
Luckily, I don't think anyone knows about it yet.
The girl in my team isn't treating me any differently.
There might be hope after all.
Don't be hopeful yet.
My old colleague got caught like you and got fired after the rumors spread.
I wonder if she's one of us.
I saw similar posts in our community.
They met offline and realized they have the same propensity.
There are more out there than we think. No one would guess that about us either.
Maybe Jiwoo too?
Still, revealing it is too risky.
Avoid it at all costs, and be careful.
Now you know all about me…
Sorry, but I can't even wear a turtleneck.
Jiwoo, what are you doing?
Don't just stare. Go on in.
Why not? Shall your mommy buy one for you?
-No, thanks. -Why not?
-What should we have for lunch? -I don't like its color.
-The color should be closer to this. -It's too pale.
Excuse me.
Jiwoo isn't coming today?
She went to the venue to check it.
Manager Hwang had her go there.
If only Jiwoo were more flexible.
I agree.
Han, did you move Doong-doong and Toy?
Yes, the prop team moved Toy, and as for Doong-doong…
-I wonder where it is. -Where is it?
Doong-doong!
I'm asking too much from an intern, right?
-Let me get it. -No, I will.
It's okay.
Thank you, sir.
Hi, Jiwoo. How are you doing this weekend?
-I just want to say thank you and sorry… -Yes, ma'am.
I checked the venue, and now I'm in the supply room. Yes.
Oh my.
Who are you?
Why are you wearing that?
Doongi doongi, Doong-doong!
Mr. Jung?
-No, no! -Wait a minute!
Oh no! Mr. Jung! Gosh!
-Are you okay? -Yes.
What do you mean you're okay?
Wow…
Are you stupid? What were you doing?
I'm sorry.
Don't move.
Are you dizzy?
I'm good. Doong-doong is well padded.
Still, you hurt your head. You need to go to the hospital.
-Let's go now! -I'm fine, really.
Sorry for wasting your time on the weekend.
What did you mean?
I JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU AND SORRY.
I wanted…
to thank you for not saying anything even after you saw all that.
Of course. Why gossip about others?
Thank you, and thank you for today. And I'm sorry.
Have a seat.
Sure.
I want to say I'm sorry too.
Pardon?
You must've been surprised because I was bossy, yelling at you.
To be honest,
I have a propensity to do that.
A propensity?
Still, I've never shown it at work…
I wonder if she's one of us.
She might have a propensity of her own.
You don't need to avoid me.
I might not look the part, but I care about what people think of me.
-So you too-- -Jiwoo.
Thank you for being so honest with me.
I'm so glad and thankful.
I was so worried that you'd think I'm a pervert,
but thank God you're also into that. What a coincidence!
-I don't think you're a pervert. -I know, exactly!
The world is cruel for seeing us that way.
To be honest,
I could sense that from you.
If you find it hard to hide, you can do it to me if it's okay with you.
Do what?
You can be bossy or yell at me.
Just treat me as your dog from now on!
People like us don't find each other at work.
Let's just be open with everything!
I'm sorry. When I said a propensity,
I didn't mean it that way.
-Sorry? -I meant,
because I've been told I look cold and scary,
so I'm self-conscious about that.
Oh, I see.
Then the collar…
It wasn't for a woman but for yourself?
It's not like that.
Let's talk about D and S, which mean dominance and submission.
Sit, Pippi.
Sit.
Down.
Spin. Good girl.
A Dominant plays the role of a ruler.
On the other hand, a Sub is submissive to his/her Dominant.
Hey, what's wrong with her today?
She always pets the dog with her eyes like this.
She is glued to her phone today.
Really?
In short, we call them Dom and Sub.
-Would you like a dom? -What's a dom?
Why are you jumpy? We have doldom fish today.
I'll give you a discount.
I don't get what you're saying.
Be more specific, as you usually are.
It's like…
as if Woohyuk has never liked dogs.
He loves dogs. He's more like a dog than a dog itself.
But it's like he's scared of them,
but he's afraid people might call him a psycho
for hating dogs.
So he acts like every other person.
But you happen to find out his truth.
You're making even less sense,
but go on.
I'm not sure if it'd be better to pretend like I don't know
or should I be nicer to him?
Do you like this dog-hater or not?
I do.
He's cute.
Just look the other way and give him some time.
He must be embarrassed.
It'll be worse if you act too nice.
Doong-doong has more followers now. That's why I like these offline events.
Thank God people love it, or else we'd get an earful from Mr. Hwang.
He couldn't care less about the preparation.
Now, he's sending screenshots of the number of Doong-doong's followers.
He should be here instead of asking us to send photos.
Let me check the stage schedule at the headquarters.
Sure.
Shit.
-A video call now? -You can do this.
Mr. Hwang, can you see me?
Jiwoo, isn't it time for lunch?
What are you doing? You can't take this off here.
I'll let you know when it's time.
-Put it on. -Water--
Sorry, but let me go to the headquarters. Keep it up.
Jiwoo.
-I'll go with you. -No, I can do it alone.
Then I'll do it.
No, I will. Thank you, Mr. Jung.
Are you trying to fry the meat?
Is it an air fryer? Let me.
Jiwoo, over here!
Have some chips.
-Thank you. -Thank you, sir.
It's so hard.
Did I overcook it? Should we get more?
No, that's not necessary.
Did you check the reviews on Instagram?
People loved the event.
-I said it was a good idea. -Soju?
-You did, sir. -No one listens…
-Good thing we did. -Damn it.
Good job.
You're good even at grilling.
What's your flaw? What do you think, Jiwoo?
That's not how to grill--
-Men should know… -I wouldn't know.
-It's not like we're close. -Women should know how to cut fruits.
Women must learn to cut fruits to find a good husband.
How obnoxious.
He's so obnoxious.
-See you. -Get home safely.
-Good luck with Jihoo, your crush! -Bye!
Why can't I get a taxi here?
Why do I hear a dog whimper--
Oh my God!
Mr. Jung?
What are you doing?
Are you sick?
Are you crying?
No…
Sure you are.
No, I'm not.
Why are you crying?
I like you.
And if you find me obnoxious,
I understand, but…
As I was just transferred to this team,
it's hard to ask for another transfer.
I'm so sorry.
You are such a crybaby.
I've never told anyone besides you and Hana.
Who is Hana?
My ex who dumped me for being a pervert!
Mr. Jung, I didn't avoid you because I hate you,
but because I didn't want to make you feel uncomfortable.
That's why.
I'm just giving you some space.
So I'm not obnoxious?
I told you I don't think you're a pervert.
Or maybe you are.
Aren't we all somewhat perverted?
Do you know…
how cool you are?
I am?
Jiwoo, I'm wondering…
Would you be my master?
That's…
I'm not asking you out or anything. Just purely be my master.
-Purely? -Yes!
I'd love to have someone like you as my master.
No.
Right?
I'm sorry.
This won't ever happen again.
Aren't you calling a driver?
You always break the machine.
I think something is jammed in here.
It gives me a good excuse to see you.
You can call me anytime.
I know you just say that. You're always busy when I call you.
Stop staring like that.
Jiwoo,
you can't seduce a man with a glare like that.
-I'm not trying to seduce him. -Look at them.
They are all googly-eyed for him.
Try crossing the line sometimes.
See you.
Mr. Jung.
Well done.
Thank you, sir.
Mr. Jung, do you have time? I have something to tell you privately.
I'll wait in the lounge.
Okay, what is it?
Wear this.
-Sorry? -I'm not your master, but I'm curious.
Wear this.
Is this a dream?
I didn't expect you'd be--
No? Okay.
I never said no.
I'll wear it.
-Actually, Jiwoo-- -Sit back here.
What you said the other night got me curious about something.
What is it?
You said you want your master to be someone like me?
What did you mean by that?
I've never seen anyone like you.
To be honest,
I've always been self-conscious.
I pretend to be mature enough not to be hated by others.
But regardless of what others think, how unfairly you're treated,
even with a freak like me, you're still the same mature person.
You stay true to yourself.
I feel so reassured, even though we're not close friends,
that I want to act like a kid around you.
I'm sorry for making you uncomfortable again.
That's okay.
I promise I won't cross the line ever again.
I'm not sure what exactly you want from me,
but I can learn things pretty quickly.
I'll think about it for now,
so would you stop avoiding me?
Really?
Of course.
Then count to 30, take off the blindfold, and return to the office.
Thank you, Jiwoo.
You're the coolest person I've ever met.
Count to 30 before you take it off.
You're not my master yet.
You're like a puppy waiting for someone.
I was waiting for you.
Are you trying to hit on me by sharing your umbrella?
I'm just trying to convince you
of how sincere I am to serve you as my master.
I know why you look at me like that.
Why?
You want to look at
everything with full attention,
just like that.
Okay.
I'll be your master.
Follow me closely so I don't get wet.
Yes, ma'am.
Don't change your mind tomorrow.
DS.
It stands for a relationship between a Dominant and a Submissive.
A relationship between one who commands and one who obeys.
Dom as in dominant and Sub as in submissive.
Depending on the gender,
we can have a Male-Dom, Female-Dom, Male-Sub, and Female-Sub.
That means
Mr. Jung is
a Male-Sub?
This is crazy.
I have wonderful news! I finally have a mistress!
Make some noise!
HOW TO BE A GOOD MISTRESS
SPANKING FEMFEM'S BDSM GUIDE
A difference between DS and SM?
DS is more about the psychological aspect
that stems from the relationship.
Whereas SM is
about the physical and sensational play.
Of course, the two concepts aren't disparate.
You can still enjoy SM play within the DS relationship.
Those involved in DS or SM aren't usually dating their partners.
DS and SM relationships tend to be vertical,
while lovers should be equal.
Of course, anything is possible.
But I just feel it's difficult to manage both.
It feels good, Jihoo.
Did your ex not like it?
She did when she didn't know about my propensity,
but despised me after she learned.
You said you like being despised?
You pervert.
Sorry for being late on my first call. I won't make the same mistake--
We need to set rules.
Set rules that only apply to the two of you.
Rules?
Don't call me master anymore.
"Jiwoo" will do.
-What about "Ms. Jiwoo"? -Just "Jiwoo."
Or else, I'll punish you.
Punish me?
Why do you look so excited?
I'm not!
Not at all.
Punish and compliment him regularly.
I've read that a Sub can feel tied down
just by having a gift from the master.
Jiwoo,
you studied, didn't you?
Make up a condition for your commands.
These glasses are the signal.
When you need my command at work, wear them.
Would you like to use a stamp or a signature?
-Sorry? -For the contract.
Jung Jiwoo, aka Dom, must carry herself in an ideal manner,
which Jung Jihoo, aka Sub, can look up to.
You had spicy pork last night, but you crave spicy food.
I'll order four tteokbokki, two mild and two hot, with rice balls.
With Coolpis too.
And Sub ought to try his best to serve his Dom.
The contract will expire three months upon its execution.
It cannot be terminated without consent.
Play will be carried out at least once a week.
Dom and Sub can designate a safe word
for urgent or dangerous situations.
Once used, the play must stop immediately.
A safe word can be a phrase we don't use daily
or something that's easy to pronounce.
For example, Planet of the Apes, soondae soup, and so on.
Anything you've wanted to use?
I want it to be special and meaningful to both of us.
Something meaningful?
Doong-doong?
Having sex should be mutually consented.
It's a contract template I found on the Internet.
I barely made any changes.
Yes, I understand your concern.
No touch.
I have zero naughty desire for you.
JUNG JIHOO
Some of the so-called hotels are worse than motels.
I'm not some expert on motels, though.
Where would be the cleanest?
-The best-- -It's all on the app.
-Turn right. -Sure.
You've never used it?
No.
But there's something aesthetically pleasing about a dog collar,
so I'm fine just looking at--
It's meant to be worn.
It's crucial that the Dom not be flustered while playing.
The Dom must always look cool to the Sub.
Dog play.
Introductory course to the SM world.
Soft, but a classic play.
-Treat him like a real dog. -Hand.
Head.
I'll give you a treat if you are good.
Okay. Anything you say--
Huh? A dog that can speak?
No!
Don't! Stop!
Sit!
Sit down!
Down!
Bang!
Good boy.
What a good boy.
I said no!
Stop!
Come on!
Stop that dog from barking!
How dare a dog talk back to me?
Excuse me, but I'm here to check because we received a complaint.
Thanks for your hard work.
Right, yes.
You too.
"Thanks for your hard work"?
What was that, you stupid?
Just say the editing team put it in by mistake.
-Why must we dig into it? -Sir.
Evading responsibility can cause a bigger problem.
Who cares? It's a kids' show with a rating less than one percent.
Isn't that why we must stick to a strict moral code?
Jiwoo, do you have the press release from the copyright complaint?
-Give it to me. -Sure.
-Han, book the meeting room at 3:00. -Okay.
We'll resolve this first, sir.
Why do I feel threatened?
That was impressive.
Mr. Hwang couldn't say a word. That felt cathartic.
Right. When I went nuts, he treated me as a nut.
I should be better.
No. The better you are, the more he'll insult you for being a girl.
-Jiwoo, the budget bill for the event? -I put it there earlier.
You should've told me.
These brats take me for a piece of shit.
Poor me.
Jiwoo, aren't you leaving?
Mr. Jung,
were you hurt yesterday?
I should've been more prepared. I'm sorry.
If you are sorry,
let me plan the next one.
Enjoy your time.
Happy Birthday to--
You should blow after the song.
Today is not my birthday.
I know. It's tomorrow. I saw on KakaoTalk.
But we'll celebrate at the office,
and I want to do it before anyone.
Ma…
Master.
Happy birthday.
Let me do the other.
They are so…
gorgeous, Jiwoo.
Thank you, but I'm not sure I've done enough to deserve these.
-We flopped last time. -No.
You are like the sun to me.
I thank you for being born into this world.
Thank you for the shoes.
Do you want me to step on you?
That wasn't exactly what I hoped for, but…
You didn't hope for it, but you sure look ready.
No, actually…
It must have come out from all those dreams
You dreamed about it?
It's nothing you should be offended by.
Well, it might be a bit, but…
It better be somewhere no one can see.
Does it hurt?
It's killing me.
Shall I stop?
I'm happy
because it's you.
I like to win because I'm competitive.
I hate looking like an easy mark
or losing to self-proclaimed tough guys.
I guess I didn't want them to know that I'm weak,
when I'm a total mess on the inside.
That's why I just love
when everything crumbles.
I love the tumble, being trampled on,
being broken.
Only by you.
Seduce him.
It's a done deal.
He even gave you a birthday gift.
He even shared his secrets, which I don't know.
Aren't you two on the same project?
Ask him to dinner.
No, drinks.
Well, that can be an abuse of power.
His job grade is above yours, so why do you worry?
Our private lives should be separate from work.
Yeah, right.
Come on, Pippi, you jealous girl. Stop it.
So loud.
Such a straight arrow.
Do as you wish.
-Going on a date again? -Yes, sort of.
A controlled office romance?
It won't be easy.
Make the font bigger for handouts. What's this?
Do you not want me to see it?
I'm just kidding.
Come on, guys.
Han, introduce yourself in this good atmosphere.
Yes, sir.
Hello.
As you may know, I'm Lee Han, officially a full-time employee.
I'll do my best!
Applause.
I think he needs a mentor to teach him the ropes.
Jiwoo can do it.
Not Jihoo.
She has a lot to take care of this month.
How about Soyeon?
Jiwoo works like no other.
Han, you can survive anywhere if you learn from her.
Okay.
Check the list of Toy's merchandise.
Forward the draft of the print order
via email to the planning team.
Update the list of distributors…
Watch your leg.
Update the list.
Jiwoo.
Sorry, but the function won't work on Excel.
Are you sure you're not asking after your first try?
Jiwoo.
What was the third thing you told me to do yesterday?
If you can't remember, record what I say.
You sent the report in a group email?
Must the president read your meeting notes?
-Look. See this file? -Yes.
You should go in there.
Looks like all the changes on the dubbed trailer are confirmed.
I'll send it over now and head to the recording studio.
Right, we don't need to keep revising it. We don't have time for that.
Stop, please.
Hi.
It's hard, right?
-You can ask me questions anytime. -Sorry?
Right. I'm doing great.
Everybody is worried I might be intimidated by Jiwoo,
but I love that about her.
Meaning?
She gets to the point without beating around the bush.
When she sounds intimidating,
she's weirdly sexy.
What did you say?
I see.
-One second. -Sure.
Okay, I'll be right there.
I've got to go to a meeting with Jiwoo. I'll let you go.
-Safe trip. -Thanks.
Jiwoo, come back to the office before you go home.
Mr. Jung?
-I sent it by mistake. -What?
Group email.
You can resend it.
Is that all?
You're not my mentee.
But I belong to you!
Mr. Jung, are you anxious about anything?
No. You're being too good to Lee Han as if you were his master.
This just won't do.
In unexpected situations,
a Dom must know how to play without toys
That's the role and responsibility of every true Dominant.
Sit there.
Take off your belt.
Take off the glasses if you want to stop.
Take it off.
It's thicker than I thought.
Mr. Jung Jihoo, you need to keep your private life separate from work.
You imagine things and get jealous.
Do you not have faith in your master?
Hit me for real.
You can really hit me since I've done you wrong.
It's embarrassing, but I want to feel the pain.
If that's too hard, just kick me or curse at me.
I want you to at least curse at me.
Son of a bitch.
What?
What are you looking at, pervert?
How dare you look at me like that?
Look down.
You can't even fix a coffee machine?
Can you do anything right?
-Is your male ego acting up? -Forgive me.
Jiwoo, I'm sorry.
This won't do. Follow me.
Is there anything you can do?
Is it too hard to review the budget on time?
If you're going to kill our efficiency,
at least be polite with a smile,
you low-life scumbag!
Yes, I'm worse than a scumbag.
This stupid copier! It keeps breaking down!
Do it again, you son of a bitch!
There's no time to write every single thing down!
Memorize them!
You're so frustrating, you dumbass!
Yes, I'm a dumbass!
What's wrong with your finger?
Why do you keep sending group emails?
-Forgive me! Teach me one more-- -How many freaking times?
Just think one more time before you send it.
Is that too hard? Damn it!
Damn it!
I'm sorry.
You and your damn back scratcher.
You piece of shit.
You, with your tiny dick,
are one disgusting son of a bitch.
I'm a million times better at work than you are!
Jiwoo.
Is somebody still here?
Did you like that?
What about you?
Me too. It got me excited.
Psychological shackles are just as important as physical SM play.
You may want to strengthen the DS bond with simple daily reports.
I had some cherry tomato salad, bread, and apple-kale juice.
Have you had breakfast? See you at the office.
Yes, master. I mean Jiwoo.
Mr. Jung.
-You'll lose weight if you eat like that. -Then--
Enjoy your lunch.
You've finally learned to appreciate the real flavor of gukbap.
You seem to take pictures of everything.
Are you on Instagram?
For my personal trainer. He checks what I eat.
Right. Did someone work late?
Apparently, the office was a mess.
Really?
One of my things got broken too.
MEOW BACK SCRATCHER
What's this?
You know what you did wrong?
I'm not sure.
I'll let you know.
HANA
Still in touch with her?
Sorry?
Isn't she your ex?
The one you mentioned when you were crying.
We don't keep in touch. It's just that she hates my guts.
Why? She's the one who dumped you.
I understand her.
I told her about my secret to get it off my chest. It was selfish.
Do you really like bleeding like this?
It hurts…
but it makes me feel alive.
I don't get it.
I understand.
If she loved you and this makes you feel alive,
couldn't she just go with it?
It's not a crime.
I don't want to force it to anyone,
which is why I'm thankful you're here.
It feels like you're starting to enjoy DS.
Thanks for your hard work.
I'll go clean up.
I can't believe what I've done, but I can't get it out of my head either.
The more I enjoy it, the more I'm confused about our relationship outside of it.
Is it normal to play as hard as this without having sex?
I'M HOME. WASHED UP AND IN BED NOW. GOING TO WATCH TV AND SLEEP. GOOD NIGHT.
It's hard to say what is and isn't normal.
Many couples end up having sex under consent,
but, as you know, it's all on a case-by-case basis.
What is it that you want?
Talk about it with your Sub.
Oh, Woohyuk!
Good morning.
Why are you alone? Where's your boss?
She'll come later today after a date.
Right, she bragged about going to an arboretum.
She's busy on weekends.
She says she's single but never stops dating.
Then why don't you ask her out too?
No, you got it wrong. She's just my… It's not like that.
Do you jog in the morning?
Good for you.
If you don't tell her, she won't know.
Don't tell anybody yet.
-See you. -See you.
Let's go.
HANA
Hi, Hana.
Hey, Jung Jihoo. Stop pretending to be busy.
It's not like that. Our timing was just off.
What's up?
I'm in Hapjeong.
I'm hungover. Buy me kalguksu.
I was just about to leave to go meet someone.
Sorry, Hana.
Next time.
Let's talk later.
I'm hanging up.
Oh, is that right? Okay.
Asshole.
ARBORETUM
Is it the nice weather?
I see many couples on dates.
You're right.
People might think we're a couple.
We're here purely for the play.
This will--
All day long,
-I order you not to be away from me. -What?
Even out there?
Yes.
No matter what. Until we come back here.
No matter what…
Okay, Jiwoo.
Let's go.
I'm sorry.
Are you sure you're okay? You don't have to wear it too.
Don't talk back. I'm just trying to be fair.
PENGUIN, I'M AT THE PARKING LOT
BE THERE SOON
Wait.
Look at her.
Let me get out right here.
I caught you, Jiwoo.
Check this out. She's not even answering her phone.
Ms. Penguin?
Here's your order of two iced Americanos and bacon sandwich.
Cheer up.
Sorry?
I just want you to cheer up.
Thank you. I will!
I think you should sit closer.
Sure.
Wait. Stay still.
I can do it by myself.
We don't have much of a choice. Open your mouth.
Did you see them?
Don't look.
Thank you.
-Are you crazy? -I'll feed you too.
-No. -Open your mouth.
-Don't. I said stop. -Open your mouth.
Wow.
She's even wiping his mouth.
Mr. Jung.
I got something to tell you today.
What is it, Jiwoo?
That's not bad.
What a place.
Hey, excuse me. Wait.
Why are you taking off your pants?
Don't be coy. You're excited too.
This isn't something we agreed on.
You like being forced.
Shall I hit you first?
I…
I like you, Mr. Jung.
Instead of being colleagues or partners, how about we…
date for real?
Let's date for real.
Let's give it a shot. It's an order.
Actually…
Sorry--
Are you all right? Your head--
Are you okay? Let me clean it…
-What the… Did you see that? -Wow, those are cuffs.
Those are cuffs. Let's try them out?
-Get out of here. You do it. -Why not? Let's do it
Mr. General, no, babe. I got something for you.
Really? You shouldn't have.
Ta-da.
This is called bondage.
This isn't what I wanted.
Let's take this off in the car.
I don't want to.
We'll try it again in a safer environment, so let's uncuff ourselves.
That's not what I mean.
No, Jiwoo.
I don't date.
I'm sorry.
Hi, Hyemi.
It was fate to meet you at Paju SM Theme Motel, Room 506.
Our first play should be perfect, baby.
I may be a Sub,
but don't you think rape play is a bit too much on our first date?
It's not like you're a rapist nor a fake BDSMer,
right?
So, what's it going to be?
Hyemi? What are you talking about? Where are you? Hyemi!
What is this?
Paju SM, Room 506!
What was a fake BDSMer again?
-What? -Those sons of bitches!
Be careful.
No, the key!
Jiwoo, let's just go!
It's not far. In 2.3 kilometers, turn right.
Hyemi, are you all right?
It's me, Jiwoo!
Are you in there?
Hyemi!
Too late.
See?
If you're going to join them, pay extra.
-Are you okay? -You must've been worried.
You got me.
I'll explain it later.
-Let's go now. -Shouldn't we call the police?
Hold on.
Just because I'm perverted,
doesn't mean you can treat me like shit.
I took pictures of you, all tied up, with your face on them,
so don't do anything stupid.
Fucking pervert!
When I posted the ad, I got 50 messages.
Half of them are from jerks who write to any girl,
the other half didn't care about my preference.
They just sent photos of their dicks!
Seriously.
But what pisses me off even more
is I am certain it's no use going to the police.
And I didn't take pictures of that jerk.
You know why?
Because
that'd make me just like those assholes.
I heard a lot of fakes try to do that, pretending to be Doms.
Assholes.
Most of them don't even know about DS.
You must be that dog-phobic man?
Sorry?
Nice to meet you.
He's cute.
-Eyes on the road while driving. -Right.
Yeah, right, he's cute.
Let's date for real.
It's an order.
No, Jiwoo.
I don't date.
I'm sorry.
WHAT I SAID EARLIER
MR. JUNG
This is freaking crazy.
ONE WEEK BEFORE CONTRACT EXPIRES
Hey, Jihoo. Wait!
What the hell are you talking about?
It's just that we sometimes bite and spank, right?
It's similar to that.
You liked it too.
That's just a way of showing affection.
It's not like doing sick stuff.
Don't you need to see a psychiatrist?
Do you have childhood trauma?
This is who I am, Hana.
I wanted to be honest with you. I thought about it a lot.
Honest?
What about all the things we did together? Was it all fake?
You weren't even turned on and wanted something else.
You forced yourself through it, didn't you?
No, that's not true, Hana.
You should've taken it to your grave.
You creep me out.
I get where he's coming from.
Some people go out with their DS partners.
You'd think it would be good, but it's not as easy as you think.
Taming is a form of love,
but that's not all there is to love.
I know.
You know what humiliates me the most?
I assumed he would say yes.
Right.
He'd been nothing but obedient so far,
and he loves to obey me.
I'm no different from those fakes.
-Boss. -Yes?
This'll help you heal without a scar, hon.
Please don't hit on me.
If I date you at my age--
That'd be a jackpot.
I mean, it doesn't have to be me, but enough with the weirdos, please.
I'd rather see all the weirdos than you. Okay?
You can go now.
Go on!
You're different from the fakes.
You tried, at least.
This wasn't even a big-budget project.
Thank you for helping us out with it.
Don't mention it.
The business team and we are like a family.
Mr. Jung, keep following it up.
You got it, sir.
Mr. Jung, where did you get those glasses? Can I try them--
Come on. You're making things awkward.
It's just that I'm looking for new glasses.
-Even I feel uncomfortable. -No, it's just…
I must keep these on.
It's like my lucky charm.
I didn't know you were superstitious.
I like that human side of you.
Ms. Choi, forgive him.
Jiwoo.
You have something on your mind?
What?
No.
I drank too much last night.
It hurts, like, right here on my bladder.
What's wrong? Did something happen between you guys?
I thought you two were getting closer.
-I'm heading out. -See you next week.
Have a great weekend.
-See you. -Okay.
-Mr. Jung. -Yes!
See you.
Let's have our final play tomorrow as planned.
Bondage is the epitome of SM play.
From the quality of the rope to the tightness of the knot,
there's a lot to consider, making this a difficult task.
The one who's tied up
feels the blood slowing down, and the dizziness
giving off a feeling of euphoria and freedom.
Freedom from being tied up,
the paradox of pain.
As difficult as it is, you can never predict the outcome.
Idiot, you don't even ask who's at the door?
Hana, are you drunk?
You should've called.
You didn't answer.
Not today…
I broke up with my boyfriend.
You fought again?
My friends won't listen to this kind of story anymore,
but you will, right?
Yes, I can do that.
But not now.
You owe me one.
And you can never pay me back for the rest of your life.
I hate that stupid look.
Okay. I'm sorry for everything, but not--
Could you be more freaking obvious?
You can't do this to me.
You have no right to look at me like that. I won't let you.
It annoys me to see you live as if nothing happened.
You think I can live like that?
I'm scared of everything because of you, even dating.
Neither can I.
I'm also scared of dating because of you.
Do you know how much it hurt me?
It hurt me too, Hana.
You may not understand,
but I wasn't accepted for who I was even for a second.
And that hurt me.
I may not be wrong.
There might not be anything wrong with me.
JUNG JIWOO
Okay, I'll go.
But I swear,
you'll never truly love someone
because you won't give up anything.
The only person you love is you.
You saw her, right?
I mean, Hana.
Are you back together?
No, that's not it.
She still hates me so much.
She wouldn't hate you
if it weren't for love.
Does it hurt?
Just say it.
I can do much more for you.
It's our final play.
Do anything you want. No regrets.
Stop, Jihoo!
I can't do this.
I'm not sure what I'm doing.
I'm sorry.
Sorry for what?
Jiwoo.
Do you know why Mercury is small and dark?
Because it's too close to the sun.
It burned up like coal and shrank.
I like the warmth, but…
I'm scared I'll burn away.
Jiwoo,
you're my sun.
The first sun I've ever met.
The one and only.
Our final play ends here.
We have one less mouth to feed.
Jiwoo's out on sick leave.
She's human after all.
I thought she was a robot.
Sir.
Thank you, Han.
-On my desk. -Sure.
Sir, aren't you wearing them today?
The glasses. Your special lucky charm.
I envy you for having something that special.
You didn't need to make me porridge.
I didn't. I bought it.
Good. It's delicious.
Eat up, and go back to sleep.
What? What is it this time?
I didn't say anything.
You're saying it with your eyes.
It's just, you can't control how one feels.
Don't get too worked up about it.
Easy!
I think I gave Jiwoo a hard time.
She's not even one of us. I shouldn't have asked her.
You're flattering yourself too much.
It was Jiwoo's choice.
She thought about it thoroughly.
She wouldn't ask you out for a beer.
She thought it'd be an abuse of power.
What a straight arrow.
She was cool from the get-go.
That got me excited.
Is that your propensity talking or the man you are?
-At first, I was sure which one. -Okay.
But I'm not so sure anymore.
I'm so pathetic, aren't I?
Goodness.
I'm a mess,
but so are you.
Does your life get any better when you keep hating on yourself?
If you have time for that,
try to be responsible for your feelings.
CAREFUL FOR WATCHFUL EYES AT WORK
Shit.
Jiwoo, be careful.
Only few would understand.
ATTACHMENTS 1 UNTITLED01.M4A
Sit there.
Take off your belt.
It's thicker than I thought.
What?
Hit me for real.
EMAIL RECIPIENTS UNTITLED01.M4A
After all that acting like an upright, perfect know-it-all,
what's this?
What are you going to do? Answer me!
So, Han won't come to work? Is he quitting?
And why isn't Mr. Jung here yet?
There he is.
-What's going on? -Go to the meeting room.
Nothing's been confirmed. Yes.
Looks like people keep posting on the online forum.
Send out a notice. Anyone sharing it will be disciplined.
-Yes, ma'am. -Yes, ma'am.
How humiliating. From the PR team?
Get in here.
I HEARD ABOUT IT. WHO WOULD'VE THOUGHT?
I MEAN, FREEDOM OF CHOICE, BUT AT THE LOUNGE OF ALL PLACES?
Hey, looks like that girl Jung Jiwoo will have to resign.
Which one is the pervert, him or her?
They both are.
How can anyone like the beating? Is it a turn-on?
Curious? Want some?
Shut up, or you might get whipped with a belt.
HIT ME WITH YOUR BEST SHOT. THAT'S HOT.
MR. JUNG JIHOO
I'm sorry. The person you've called is unavailable.
Please try to call back later.
I'm her colleague. She won't answer my calls.
Just a colleague?
Sorry?
If so, she would've answered.
If it weren't for me,
you wouldn't have to suffer humiliation like this now.
It's all my fault.
But at the same time,
the thought of people knowing my true nature
makes me want go to hide somewhere.
Pathetic, right?
Jiwoo…
We'll begin the disciplinary hearing.
Sit there.
Remove your belt.
Take it off.
It's thicker than I thought.
Hit me for real.
That's enough.
What exactly…
is your relationship?
What's all this taking off and beating each other about?
The issue here is breaking the rule at a workplace,
not our private lives.
That's exactly what we need to know to figure out what you violated.
We're not just any other company!
What if it spreads around online on forums for moms?
By the way, Ms. Jung, I guess you're a lady by day and a vamp by night.
Was it that funny?
Just let it all out.
We don't want it to get out of hand either.
We'll just say a young couple got carried away in a romantic relationship.
That's right. Take this as a chance to clean up your acts,
or is that not your taste, Mr. Jung?
Dating might actually be more awkward.
They might've just been sexual partners.
Right.
It can be exciting the first few times to follow a girl's lead,
but if it continues, I mean, a man--
Are you aware your comments can be problematic?
Wow, you're as amazing as I've heard.
You didn't do anything more than that in the lounge, right?
Yes, answer me. Did you have sex or not?
You won't regret what you said, right?
-I will-- -Enough!
I asked her to punish me. It wasn't her fault.
We will decide whether or not she did something wrong.
So you're saying it happened because of your weird taste?
That's right. I like being ordered and stepped on.
I'm the one to blame, so stop with the debate.
-Mr. Jung, Doong-doong. -I'm not obeying you today.
-What did she say? -Doong-doong.
Huh? Is that some password?
Never mind.
So to sum up, Mr. Jung has no special feeling for Ms. Jung,
but just likes being stepped on, right?
Then, Ms. Jung, do you like him or hitting him?
Let's make it clear.
You got it wrong. I…
like Jiwoo.
Mr. Jung, this isn't the place--
I like her, and I want to go out with her.
So don't talk about her like that.
So you like her.
But you know you'll still be disciplined?
I don't care if I'm disciplined or fired. I need to say this.
As I've said, I'm a weirdo who caused this commotion,
but not her.
Honestly, I think everyone here is crazy except for her.
She's a competent and cool lady who did her job that I gave, perfectly.
That's why I fell for her.
Is it wrong? Is that against the regulations?
You're the ones crossing the line, being rude to our faces!
Shame on you!
Jiwoo,
I know it's not the right time again,
but I like you.
Screw the contract or disciplinary action.
As a colleague, a human being, and a man, I respect and like you.
You can't imagine how much I like you.
I like you.
Regardless, it's provocative.
Yes, I guess we are provocative.
From now on, we'll only be provocative outside of the office.
Any other questions?
No regrets, too, I hope.
You didn't have to go that far.
You're cool when you're tough, and you're pretty when you smile.
Am I not pretty without a smile?
Are you stupid? How could you not be?
I can't believe it.
You've become very insolent now that our contract is over.
Should I renew it?
You don't need to do anything that's hard for you.
There you go again.
Stop making assumptions.
I like taking on challenges,
and I kind of enjoyed this too.
Let's try both.
-DS and dating. -Really?
Let's renew our contract thoroughly, so you don't get burned.
It's worth getting fired.
We don't know that yet.
Sorry?
ANONYMOUS
Mr. Hwang, when are we going away?
Don't call me Mr. Hwang.
My wife is sensitive.
Baby, let's go on a business trip to Busan and have mackerel sashimi.
That crazy bastard spy.
Sir, I called the hottest girls…
What's that?
-It's in a group chat room. -Really?
Han, Jiwoo is asking for you.
Okay.
If our conversation was recorded, I thought there must be others as well.
Hit me for real.
This won't do. Follow me.
Mr. Hwang, when are we going away?
Jiwoo, I'm sorry to put you on the spot,
but it'll get me in trouble.
Aren't you going to quit anyway?
Then help me.
Suspended?
Do they even get paid?
Are they the only two?
JUNG JIHOO SIX-MONTH SUSPENSION
JUNG JIWOO THREE-MONTH PAY CUT
Our team lost too many people.
Take charge of the events for now. That's the punishment.
Yes, ma'am.
-Will you quit if the work is too hard? -Yes.
No relationship in the world is perfectly equal, I think.
But we'll try hard for life to love someone, equally.
Are you going on a date again?
With you. Let's close the shop.
-Oh no! James, don't! -Hyemi!
Watch it. "Boss," okay?
Dom or Sub,
or S or M, we all are looking
for someone who can accept our true selves under the mask,
the unique love you might find if you don't give up.
If you could find that person,
it might be worth flipping your life upside down.
Do you really want to be bitten?
I want to hug, kiss, and do all that,
but I'd like to take things slow and enjoy every step.
Then, by your standard, would this be step one?
That's right.
Jiwoo…
We're trying DS and dating.
I thought I should let you know, FemFem.
Thank you.
Congratulations on meeting someone like that.
I'm rooting for your DS and love.
You're cute most of the time
but cuter when you're tied up like this.
Then tie me up all the time.
We'll see about that.
But as for today, I won't let you go until I'm satisfied.
Come on. You're trying to take the easy way out?
I love you, master.
