Hae Won manages to write her exams and passes .She gets a scholarship  to one of the best universities outside of the country only to return to Korea 6yrs later  after completing her master's

She finds a job as a financial advisor at a small company even though she's overqualified for the job.

Miss Park:(removing her blanket)Wake up, You're going to be late for your firstday at work !
Hae Won:(sulking) No let me sleep my alarm hasn't even rang
Miss Park:(chuckles)It did an hour ago and you slept through it.
Hae Won: (suddenly wide awake)Omo ,I'm never going to get there in time now

She frantically gets ready and bolts out of the house straight to the bus stop and sits at the back putting on her stockings hoping no-one notices but everyone notices.

Hae Won: (fake smiling) Good morning

They all look away

She puts on her make up and by the time the bus stops you can't even tell she got on it looking  like a mess.

She rushes into  the elevator and as the doors are about to close a man yells for her to hold the lift and she does so.

Man:Aish I'm tired,I had to run here .My car broke down.
Hae Won: Awe you work here?
Man :(smiling) Yes , I do

She looks at the way he's dressed and it's really  casual.He seems older than her so she assumes he's one of her superiors .

Hae Won:Its my first day here
Man :Awe what's your name?
Hae Won: I'm Park Yeona.
Man:(teasingly) You don't look like a Yeona.
Hae Won:(smiling)  I hear that alot.
Man :Wait Park Yeona ,i heard about you.Aren't you the new girl who's overqualified for the job.
Hae Won:(shy) I don't think I am.So how is it working here
Man:It's okay I think,I can't really complain.Why did you choose to work here when you could've gone anywhere else
Hae Won:I think this company has room to grow.With the right financial advice it could blossom into something really big.
Man :Wow (chuckles) I've been working here for a very long time but you seem to have much more faith in it than me.
Hae Won: Im just passionate about what I do.By the way what's your name  Sir?
Man :Jung Wu bin  but you should call me Wu bin no need to be formal .
Hae Won:Which department do you work in ?
Mr Jung:Awe I...

Suddenly they reach their floor cutting him off.

Mr Jung :(smiling) Have a nice day miss Park.

He goes off and Hae Won wonders around the office looking for her supervisor Miss Do

Miss Do:Okay so you firstly have a meeting with the chairman,then you can start your work.(pointing at it) Right over there's is your desk.I left a couple files for you and if you need anything feel free to ask Miss Ko .But beware don't be too nice to her she's a bit clingy.

As she arrives at the office she is dumbfound to see that the weirdo from the elevator is her new boss.

Mr Jung:(serious) Take a seat Miss.
Hae Won:(surprised) Omo Wu bin!
Mr Jung:(fixing his tie)It's Mr Jung for you
Hae Won:(dumfound) But you said....
Mr Jung:(cutting her off)I'll cut you some slack since it's your first day
Hae Won: (confused) Howc..
Mr Jung :(cutting her off)Let's work hard okay Miss Park,that's all I have to say. You can go do your work now I've got another meeting .
Hae Won: (still confused) Okay....(in her mind)But when did he change his outfit.
