00:30Min sits on the bed, checking Jenny's condition.
00:39We should really find another place.
00:42I'm always at the hospital. You don't have to worry about me.
00:46Besides, ever since you guys dragged me into this, I got myself a new place.
00:53Brian is a medical doctor and Min's childhood friend.
00:58I'm sorry.
01:00I had no one to turn to.
01:03No, not you. That was for Min, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that.
01:08Don't listen to him, Jen. He's the doctor. He should be doing his job right now.
01:15Your friend right here almost intoxicated herself with drugs and alcohol. The perfect combo for a deathbed.
01:22Jen!
01:22I couldn't take it anymore. They won't let me go. Min, you know there's no way out.
01:31Stop it. I will find a way out.
01:35Jenny falls silent. She's too weak to argue.
01:37Lucky for her, her manager let her go.
01:41Do they know?
01:44I sneaked out.
01:46I told her I'll be back.
01:49I always do what I say.
01:52They know I won't be able to run away from them.
01:55Just bear with it a little longer.
01:59I'm trying to find the right moment to ask Dan if he could fly you out of the country.
02:04He has a private plane.
02:06Who's Dan?
02:08Her boyfriend, Dan Mason.
02:09You're dating Dan Mason?
02:13Brian doesn't sound too happy about it.
02:16He sits on the couch, arms crossed.
02:19I can date whoever I want.
02:21You're dating a jerk.
02:23Brian.
02:25She obviously doesn't know.
02:27What do you know?
02:28You don't even know him.
02:30He was in my batch at university.
02:33We had some mutual friends.
02:34He's no good for you.
02:35He only graduated because his dad was a major shareholder.
02:38People change.
02:41He's not being a jerk to me, so just chill.
02:44Don't you ever tell him your plan or all of you are done.
02:48Min's phone rings and she picks it up.
02:52Hello.
02:53They all watch her.
02:55Okay.
02:56Got it.
02:58Who is it?
02:59The boss.
03:01He wants to meet at the club tonight.
03:03Which club?
03:05Min hesitates and Jenny, worried.
03:09Waits for an answer.
03:11Min.
03:13V-Night.
03:14Jenny falters.
03:16V-Night is short for VIP night.
03:18An exclusive club for the rich and powerful.
03:22It's happening.
03:24You're next.
03:26I'll be fine.
03:27No.
03:28They spare no one.
03:30Look at me, Min.
03:32Look at me.
03:33Jenny's eyes well up with tears.
03:37I brought millions into their pockets, and it still wasn't enough.
03:41They'll offer you at your peak, when your price is at its highest.
03:45It's all about the money.
03:47This whole show business is just a front to prepare the girls for their real target market.
03:51There were a lot of girls before me.
03:54And where are they now?
03:57We'll get through it.
03:58You're in your third year.
04:01Your time has come.
04:03Jenny.
04:04Brian approaches her and calms her down.
04:06I know all of that, Jen.
04:09You don't need to remind me.
04:12I already warned you, and you still entered the business.
04:15You were so naive.
04:18It's all your fault.
04:19You exposed them and warned me early on.
04:23I couldn't turn my back on you after that.
04:26Those words melt Jenny's heart.
04:30She expects nothing from Min, yet Min is giving her all, even putting her life at stake.
04:36Jenny embraces her.
04:39No matter what happens, we'll go with the plan.
04:42I promise.
04:44Deep down, Min starts to worry, but there's no other way out.
04:54Vil has just finished shooting her scenes for the day.
04:59It's 11.30 in the evening.
05:01She heads back to her apartment with Chelsea and the driver.
05:09She arrives at her apartment just past 12 a.m., too tired even to take a shower.
05:15She drops onto her bed and falls asleep.
05:22At 5.30 a.m., the alarm goes off.
05:27Still in bed, Sleepyville reaches for it and turns it off.
05:31She forces herself to wake up and get ready for work.
05:40At 8.00 a.m., she's already at the network building.
05:46Her stylist and makeup artist get her glammed up.
05:49At 9.00 a.m., she appears on a morning talk show to promote her TV drama.
05:58At 11.30 a.m., she joins the network's executives for lunch.
06:04They exchange pleasantries and small talk, clearly thrilled to have her around.
06:08At 1.30 p.m., her driver and Chelsea arrive to pick her up.
06:18She heads to her shooting location for the day and takes a nap on the way to recharge.
06:27She comes home past midnight again, drops onto her bed, and falls asleep.
06:32Her alarm goes off at 5.30 a.m., and she gets ready for work again.
06:42At 8.00 a.m., she poses for a photoshoot for a magazine.
06:50After that, she returns to shooting her TV show.
06:54It's been a hectic schedule for her.
06:56She's getting tired, but she keeps going by taking rest during her free time instead of going out.
07:06She doesn't have any friends in the city, anyway.
07:10She's focused on her work to support herself and her sister.
07:13Victoria talks on the phone at her desk.
07:23Min, sitting on the couch, watches Ville's interview on TV.
07:27Is it true that you're good at organic farming?
07:30Not as good as my parents, for sure.
07:32They used to run a farm when I was little, though it wasn't ours.
07:36They were trusted employees and played a huge role in making the farm as profitable as it was.
07:43I guess you learned straight from them.
07:45Yeah, I would try to do what they were doing.
07:48My dad noticed my interest and started teaching me the farming techniques.
07:53Quietly watching, Min thinks to herself,
07:57She's doing really well.
07:59She's even having a better first year than I did.
08:03Sun must be very pleased.
08:05But why am I worrying about her?
08:07I should be worrying about myself.
08:09I'm pretty much at the edge of the cliff now.
08:13Min steps out of Victoria's office and sees Ville approaching.
08:23She glances at the open door, quickly closes it, and walks forward to meet Ville.
08:30Min greets her with a smile, and Ville bows in return.
08:34You don't have to do that.
08:38You're my senior.
08:39You don't have to rub it in my face.
08:42I'm still in my 20s.
08:44A simple high would be enough.
08:46Got it.
08:48I watched your recent interview.
08:51So you know how to farm?
08:53Yeah.
08:55Don't you want to run your own farm when your contract ends?
08:57You should have saved up enough to buy one when the time comes.
09:03My sister will be enrolling in medical school by then.
09:06Oh, really?
09:09Yeah.
09:10I'm her only family, so...
09:13You're doing a great job, by the way.
09:16You'll probably earn a lot in your second year that you should be able to afford your sister's entire medical school years.
09:21Ville blushed, feeling a bit shy.
09:26Think about owning your own farm before renewing your contract in three years.
09:31You never know what might happen.
09:34Fame isn't forever.
09:36That's true.
09:38I'll think about it.
09:40But how did you know my contract is for three years?
09:44Everyone renews after three years, at least at TS.
09:49Oh.
09:49Well, good luck.
09:52I'll go ahead.
09:54Thanks.
09:55You too.
09:57Min flashes a big smile and walks away.
10:01Ville seems to ponder what she just said.
10:10Min enters the exclusive nightclub, V-Night.
10:14It's dimly lit, with the only light coming from the lamps and flashing disco lights.
10:20The place pumps out EDM music.
10:23It's not crowded, unlike a typical nightclub.
10:27Of course, it's an exclusive club for the rich and influential.
10:31The club values its clients' privacy.
10:33Whatever happens inside, stays inside.
10:36There's a sleek dance floor at the center, surrounded by stand-up tables, with fancy couches in the corners.
10:46Min scans the place.
10:47At one end, Sun raises his hand, signaling for her to come over.
10:54She spots him and walks toward him.
10:56Upon reaching him, she smiles at Sun, only to find Barry getting cozy on the couch as well.
11:07Her smile fades.
11:08Min joins them, keeping a little distance from Barry.
11:17Sun signals to the DJ, and the music shifts to a ballad.
11:21Now we should be able to hear each other better.
11:27Is there something you want to tell me?
11:30I have an important call to make, but I can't leave this guest alone.
11:35Right.
11:35She turns to Barry, and he raises his eyebrows at her.
11:41In the back of her mind, she's thinking.
11:45Pervert.
11:46Sun stands up.
11:48She opens her mouth to speak, but he swiftly walks away.
11:53Now she's left stuck with Barry.
11:56Can I get you something?
11:57Maybe a drink?
11:59No thanks.
12:01I find it hard to believe that you don't drink.
12:03I didn't say that.
12:06I just didn't want you to buy me a drink.
12:10Barry gets tongue-tied.
12:12I don't drink in places like this, and I don't drink with men I barely know.
12:17Aren't you concerned about losing me as a client?
12:21What kind of client are you, really?
12:24An investor or a buyer?
12:29Barry raises an eyebrow.
12:31He's got her confused about something.
12:34They stare into each other's eyes.
12:39Min looks away, breaking the connection.
12:43Her gaze drifts across the room and lands on Dan Mason, 36, getting cozy with another
12:49woman at a bar table.
12:52Min's eyes widen.
12:55Barry moves closer to her, but she suddenly stands up.
12:58Min walks across the room, making her way toward Dan's bar table.
13:14Dan and his younger female companion are a little too close, talking and giggling.
13:22Min interrupts them.
13:24Mind if I join you?
13:27Both turn to her.
13:29Dan's eyes widen as he moves away from the girl.
13:33Min!
13:35We need to talk.
13:43Min and Dan face each other in the quiet parking lot outside the club.
13:47What were you doing with that girl?
13:52Nothing.
13:53Just chillin'.
13:54Seriously.
13:56That looked like way more than just chillin'.
13:59Both of your faces were so close, I could barely tell which one was yours.
14:05She's just a friend.
14:06Min.
14:07There's nothing going on.
14:09I'm not stupid, Dan.
14:11I said it already.
14:13It is what it is.
14:14If you don't believe me, that's no longer my problem.
14:19Min fumes in anger, slapping him hard across the face.
14:24He restrains himself.
14:28How dare you make me look stupid?
14:31Don't you put a hand on me again.
14:33I've spent millions on you.
14:35I have every right to do what I want.
14:38What?
14:39You spent what?
14:42You cost me a fortune.
14:43Did you really think it was real?
14:45I had to go along with it just to get the most out of every penny I spent.
14:51Min falters.
14:53This is something she hadn't seen coming.
14:56She was ready not to fall victim to Sun's human trafficking schemes.
15:00But it looks like she already has.
15:03It started long before she knew it.
15:13Sun returns to the club and meets Barry in the entrance lobby.
15:18Are you leaving already?
15:20Yeah.
15:21Something came up with your girl.
15:23She left you alone in there?
15:26Yeah.
15:27Did she say where she was going?
15:29Barry shrugs, pats Sun on the shoulder, and walks away.
15:36Sun, upset, takes out his phone and makes a call.
15:39He steps back toward the entrance and bumps into Dan, who is just entering the club.
15:47Dan.
15:49Hey, Sun.
15:50Get a grip on your girl or I will.
15:54Sun puts his phone down.
15:56What do you mean?
15:58Min really thinks we're an item.
16:00I'm done pretending.
16:01What did you say to her?
16:05Sun seems eager to know that Dan finds it unusual, leaving him speechless.
16:11What did you say to her?
16:14Sun grabs Dan's shirt, pulling him closer.
16:17Sun eventually steps out of the club, making a call.
16:28He looks agitated as he speaks on the phone.
16:33This is earlier than I expected.
16:36You know what to do.
16:39Sun ends the call.
16:40Sun ends the call.
16:44Sun ends the call.
16:45Sun ends the call.
16:48Sun ends the call.
16:52Sync買召.
16:57Sun ends first.
