Then she goes on to tell our Hae-young’s age of forty-one, and now I really want to slap her. She chirps that she has the youngest metabolic age out of the whole office, unaware that our Hae-young is in a stall listening in. He takes a call from the other Hae-young, who’s canceling their ping-pong date for today. Do-kyung stands his ground, insisting the actor’s pronunciation isn’t good enough, and his employee has to drag him out before fists start swinging. Oh crap, our Hae-young forgot about that in her anger and drunkenness, that she’s accusing the other Hae-young of doing what everyone else thinks she also did.ĭo-kyung’s excessive perfectionism angers a veteran actor when he insists on re=recording a scene’s vocals, and the actor confronts him. She’s screaming by the time she gets to, “ Why did you do it?” The other Hae-young turns it around on her and quietly asks why our Hae-young canceled her wedding the day prior. Voice rising, she says that Hae-young should have stayed hidden after doing what she did.
She mutters that the other Hae-young is sly, wondering why she came back after dumping Do-kyung like she did. Hae-young grows genuinely angry, drawing the attention of her coworkers. “I’m going to be the only Oh Hae-young in this world!” She decides that the other Hae-young’s new name can be Bit-na (Sparkle), and assures her nastily that she’s not just saying this because they’re playing a game - she means it. Our Hae-young just sits glaring at the other Hae-young (who’s calling her “unni,” which makes me want to slap her), and she orders her to change her name. Sung-jin’s metabolic age is forty-three, and when Soo-kyung catches him giggling at her age, she invites him in a honey-sweet voice to talk banmal with her. Our Hae-young gets a little too drunk and hollers for her to shush right in the middle of her song, which makes the boss angry, and he forbids our Hae-young to talk anymore without his permission. And to add insult to injury, the other Hae-young’s metabolic age is only twenty-one.Īs the “youngest” she’s asked to sing, and all the men cheer while our Hae-young and Soo-kyung both pout. Hae-young is sure she’ll win, but she loses out by one measly year to Soo-kyung. There’s some sort of office party later, where everyone’s metabolic ages are announced.
She refuses his mother’s suggestion that they try to get Tae-jin and Hae-young back together, and Dad looks ready to back her up if needed. Mom is busy threatening Tae-jin’s mother on the phone, ready to get naked and go beat the crap out of her son (why she strips when she’s angry I don’t know, but it’s hilarious). But when she hears that a game later will give an advantage to the person with the highest age, her competitive spirit kicks in and she gets excited. She even holds the elevator for the other Hae-young and greets her cheerfully - and honestly, it’s kind of terrifying.Įveryone in the office get the results from their physicals and report their metabolic ages, and Hae-young gapes to see that hers is forty-one. Still stinging from Do-kyung’s rejection, Hae-young goes to work overcompensating, greeting everyone in a voice that’s too shrill and too perky.
Being so close, and with tensions running high, he succumbs to temptation and kisses her. She’s screaming and attacking him, and he has to physically pin her against a wall to make her stop. But is it right to make such a decision on someone else’s behalf, without their knowledge or consent, and is it really for their own good if it causes even more heartache?ĭo-kyung experiences yet another vision, of himself grappling with a furious Hae-young.
Loving another person means more than just caring for them - at times it can mean letting them go for their own happiness. 440 Oh Hae-young Again: Episode 9 by LollyPip
