Our leading ladies reach the final stretch of their journey to the (hopefully) top. They pool their resources and know-how, working together to secure their positions and unseat the men who have been making their lives less than fun. Despite the challenges, or maybe because of them, both women have grown and found more balance in their lives. The finale wraps things up nicely, both thematically and for our characters, bringing this office fight for power to a close.

 

EPISODES 15-16

 

We ended last week with Ah-in turning down that perfect offer, and for once, she’s not strategizing. Ah-in just couldn’t ethically lend her considerable skills to a potentially predatory loan company having experienced what it’s like to have money collectors harass her family in childhood. After hearing her reasoning, her team can’t do anything but respect her decision and help her pack up her things.

Ah-in may be ruthless in business, but she’s unusually principled, at least compared to her peers. Unlike Chang-soo, she takes care of her people and never drags innocent or unrelated people into the higher-ups’ fights. So while she’s earned her fair share of enemies, she also has some powerful allies.

Getting wind of the whole ad fiasco, CEO Cho enlists Geun-cheol’s help to get all the ads resumed. And with that, Ah-in has now achieved her revenue increase goal and no longer needs to quit. All CEO Cho asks of her is to keep doing what she’s doing and to help Hanna where she can.

 

Chang-soo throws a little fit at this latest development, but CEO Cho counters that Ah-in has achieved an impressive business feat. Now it’s Chang-soo’s turn to prove himself: he has a month to increase revenue by 30 billion won if he wants to earn his keep. Since we’ve seen him accomplish pretty much nothing except roadblocking Ah-in, that seems like a fair ask. (Chang-soo disagrees.)

Because Chang-soo can’t do honest work to save his life, he tries to achieve the revenue goal by swiping an opportunity from a smaller agency who, despite a better ad campaign proposal, can’t compete with VC Group promising to make the milk company their official beverage provider in their cafeterias. It’s after this move that we finally see Jung-seok’s play. He goes on national TV and reveals this shady deal, even name checking himself and Chang-soo as the responsible parties. His revenge served, Jung-seok resigns and goes back to his restaurant.

 

Meanwhile, Ah-in takes her promise to CEO Cho seriously and starts to mentor Hanna. Her first order of business is to coach Hanna on how to get Young-woo back. Hanna attempts to follow her advice and rationally convince him that she needs him, but of course her calm lasts all of 30 seconds. Thankfully, Ah-in predicts this and calls Young-woo to do the rational part of the convincing herself. Their combined effort works, and Young-woo returns both to the company and Hanna. To make things official, Hanna snaps a photo of them holding hands and announces on her social media that they’re dating.

He and Hanna await Ah-in’s brilliant strategy – I love how she’s the de facto leader – but she surprises them by saying she doesn’t have one. Sometimes, your best move is waiting for your opponent to make a mistake. And oh, does he ever.

Han-soo makes a series of bad decisions, starting with being a jackass to his fiancée because she resumed Woowon’s ads without his permission, even though it’s her family’s company and therefore her decision. He basically calls her stupid and vapid, and then blames her for “making” him say mean things to her. Gross.
