Confidence Queen Episode 4 With English Subtitles A Heart That Trembles, A Secret That Grows

A New Beginning at Seoul Belle Cosmetics

Episode 4 begins with Han Seo-yeon stepping into her first day as an intern at Seoul Belle Cosmetics, the company she once admired from afar. She walks through the lobby with nervous excitement, reminding herself why she took this chance — to become confident and reclaim the dignity stolen from her in high school.

Her mentor, Choi Eun-ji, immediately puts Seo-yeon on a tough assignment: assist with the brand’s biggest upcoming product launch. The pressure begins from minute one, but Seo-yeon smiles, determined to prove she belongs.

The Unexpected Reunion

(English Subtitle: “Why are you here?”)

During a team meeting, Seo-yeon freezes when she sees Yoo Ji-ho, the company’s marketing director — and also her first love. Ji-ho recognizes her immediately, shock hidden behind his professional expression. Memories of teenage heartbreak flash between them, but neither addresses the past. The tension is unmistakable.

Seo-yeon tries to avoid eye contact, but Ji-ho watches her closely, as if trying to solve a puzzle. He later finds her in the hallway and simply says:

“You’ve changed… but your eyes are still the same.”

Seo-yeon panics, excusing herself before tears betray her composure.

Queen of Confidence Arrives

(English Subtitle: “Confidence is everything.”)

The office atmosphere shifts when Kang Mi-rae, the famous beauty influencer and new face of Seoul Belle, arrives. She’s glamorous, bold, and everything Seo-yeon once hoped to be. But there’s a twist — Mi-rae is none other than the girl who bullied Seo-yeon in the past.

Mi-rae pretends not to recognize her, but a sly smirk reveals the truth.

“We must’ve met before… somewhere cheap?”
Mi-rae mocks quietly as cameras flash around her.

Seo-yeon clenches her fists. She promised herself she wouldn’t run away again.

Team Challenge Begins

(English Subtitle: “Let’s see what you’re capable of.”)

Eun-ji assigns Seo-yeon to lead a creative pitch for Mi-rae’s launch — a task clearly meant to test her. The rest of the team doubts this “rookie nobody,” whispering behind her back. However, Seo-yeon stays up late researching, sketching ideas, and practicing her presentation.

Ji-ho secretly observes from a distance, impressed by her focus. He offers a small piece of advice:

“Confidence isn’t about being perfect. It’s about taking the first step.”

Encouraged, Seo-yeon finishes her presentation board with renewed courage.

Flashbacks of Pain

(English Subtitle: “Those days still haunt me.”)

At night, Seo-yeon recalls high school days — Mi-rae and her clique humiliating her because of her looks. Ji-ho was the only one kind to her, but even he didn’t defend her publicly. Those scars remain deep.

She looks in the mirror, touching her now transformed face — the result of surgeries, fitness, and years of effort. A tear falls as she whispers to herself:

“I didn’t change for them. I changed for me.”

Yet fear still lingers: What if she fails and everyone laughs again?

The Presentation Day

(English Subtitle: “Confidence… begins now.”)

In front of the executive team and Mi-rae, Seo-yeon steps up to present. Her voice trembles at first, but soon she gains strength. She reveals a campaign theme celebrating inner confidence, not just beauty.

Everyone looks impressed — except Mi-rae, whose smile hides jealousy.

But then, right as Seo-yeon finishes, Mi-rae raises her hand.

“Did you steal this concept? It sounds very similar to another brand’s campaign.”

The room falls silent. Seo-yeon’s face drains of color.

Eun-ji glares at her as if betrayal has occurred. Seo-yeon tries to explain she created everything herself, but Mi-rae continues to cast doubt, playing innocent.

Ji-ho steps in firmly:

“I reviewed her drafts last night. There’s no plagiarism.”

Seo-yeon looks at him in disbelief and gratitude — a lifeline when she was drowning.

A Challenge Declared

(English Subtitle: “I’ll destroy her again.”)

Mi-rae hides her anger but sends Seo-yeon a warning glance. She clearly sees Seo-yeon as a threat — and she doesn’t like competition.

As they leave the meeting room, Mi-rae whispers:

“Don’t forget who you really are — trash that got lucky.”

Seo-yeon finally looks her bully in the eye and responds:

“I’m not afraid of you anymore.”

For the first time, Mi-rae loses confidence.

An Unexpected Invitation

(English Subtitle: “Let’s talk… just the two of us.”)

Ji-ho approaches Seo-yeon after the meeting. He formally congratulates her but hints there’s something more he wants to say. He invites her to have dinner — just the two of them.

Seo-yeon hesitates. Her heart races, but she fears reopening old wounds. Yet the idea of a second chance is tempting.

She softly nods.

Ending Scene – A New War

(English Subtitle: “This is only the beginning.”)

Mi-rae watches the two walk away together, fury burning in her eyes. She vows revenge.

Meanwhile, Ji-ho smiles gently at Seo-yeon, unaware of the darkness forming behind them.

The narrator’s last line echoes the episode’s message:

“Confidence is hardest to keep… when someone tries to take it away.”

Seo-yeon stands taller than ever, ready to face whatever comes next.
