THE GOLDEN SPOON

What about this one, ma'am?

Everyone is equal.

Jesus, Buddha,

Marx, and Gandhi all said the same.

It's expected to surpass…

The International Monetary Fund predicts

that Korea's economy will grow

at a rate of 4.5% this year, in 2011.

The Constitution says the same.

BASIC RIGHTS SPECIFIED IN THE CONSTITUTION

However, everyone knows

that it's not the case in real life.

Everyone is seated the same way

in the same uniform,

but this place is…

Korea is

a hierarchical society.

The world is dominated by those
born with a golden spoon in their mouths.

Park Janggun,
the Army Chief of Staff's son.

Net worth, 200 billion won.

Oh Yeojin from Oh Construction.
Net worth, 300 billion won.

Kwon Minho,
the Sungbin Hospital director's son.

Net worth, 100 billion won.

Jeong Yunsu, the Jeong and Kim Law Firm
Senior Partner's son.

-Net worth, 100 billion won.
-And

the golden spoon of the golden spoons…

Hwang Taeyong, son of
President Hwang Hyeondo of Doshin Group,

the second largest company in Korea
with market value of 300 trillion won.

See you.

Bye.

Isn't that Taeyong's car?

I wonder how much that is.

-I'll text you.
-Okay.

-Bye.
-Bye.

The story of someone
going from rags to riches?

That's an old-time fairy tale.

QUICK DELIVERY

Hello.

Excuse me, coming through.

Excuse me.

Your food is here. I'm sorry.

-Let me take that.
-Okay.

-What took you so long? I'm starving.
-I'm sorry. There was a lot of traffic.

If we use this formula,

minus AC here.

It should be less than zero
or equal to it, right?

In this case, look.

So we are going to solve it
by using this formula.

Then how are we…

MATHEMATICS

Hey, part-timer.
Give me a pack of cigarettes.

Show me your ID, please.

Look at your attitude.

Hey, I'm obviously not a minor.

Hurry up and give me a pack.

-Why you…
-Hey!

I was joking.

Shouldn't you be working right now?

You're working darn hard, aren't you?

Look. My mom got these for me.

-Aren't they from the magazine?
-Right.

You'll let me borrow them, right?

Are you kidding me? No way.

Wow.

Such a cheapskate.

I knew our friendship was this shallow.

Who was there for you as you whined
about transferring to a technical high?

Then again, I shouldn't treat
the only other student

on the socially vulnerable admissions
program at Seoul Jeil High like this.

Okay!

You can keep these.

Forget it.

You shouldn't put shoes on the counter.

I was kidding.

I mean it.

Keep them.

Park Jinseok, what's with you?

It was a joke. I'm not crazy, you know.

Why would I give these to you?

You looked darn serious just now.

I'll be going then. Good luck.

Why, that little…

Welcome.

I'll take these.

Seungcheon, thanks for everything.

SENT MESSAGE
TO SEUNGCHEON

PERFECT ATTENDANCE AWARD
AWARD CERTIFICATE

DEAR JINSEOK…
WE WERE SO HAPPY WHEN YOU WERE BORN

SORRY FOR LEAVING YOU WITH A DEBT.

JINSEOK, WE'RE SORRY. DON'T FORGIVE US

DOSHIN, EXPLAIN THE DEATHS
CAUSED BY FORCED DEMOLITION

ABSOLUTE NO TO REDEVELOPMENT

LIFE COMES BEFORE DEVELOPMENT
SECURE OUR RIGHTS TO HOUSING

Jinseok, please.

Please…

Jinseok, please.

Jinseok, no.

No.

Jinseok.

Jinseok.

-Jinseok, no.
-You shouldn't do this.

-No, Jinseok!
-Stay away.

-Move back.
-Jinseok! No.

Jinseok!

No… Jinseok, no.

You rotten pieces of trash!

You should've paid me back
before you chose to die.

Or at least left your brat alive
to pay me back.

Why did you kill yourselves altogether?

What am I supposed to do now?

You pay me on your brother's behalf.

I can't live without that money!

-I can't live without it!
-They're unbelievable.

What's wrong with them?
I mean, people died.

It's not the people,
but the money that died.

Goodness. Poor Park Jinseok.

Seungcheon!

You guys are so loyal to each other.

Is it because you're both poor?

Hey, let's hurry and eat first.
The noodles might get soggy.

-Hey, look. Aren't these crazy?
-What is it?

They're so cool.

If I graduate from SNU
and get a job at Doshin Group,

I'll buy you a pair.

Becoming a billionaire myself
might be faster, my friend.

-You think so?
-Jeez.

-It hurts.
-You too?

Don't make me laugh.

NO TO REDEVELOPMENT

-There!
-He's coming!

Some say Doshin's
forced demolition caused these deaths.

Do you have any comments?

Do you think Doshin is responsible
for their deaths?

Do you have any plans to reconsider
the redevelopment in Samin-dong?

First of all, I'd like to express
my sincere condolences.

I'm not here
as the president of Doshin Group.

I'm here today as a father myself,

to mourn over the death
of my son's classmate.

Excuse me.

What about punishing the person in charge
and compensation for the late family?

Are you here because you officially admit
to being responsible?

Must they have high school seniors
attend an occasion like this?

Of course not.

My mom said nothing is for free.

Janggun, let's think of this as the price
we pay for good student records.

-Okay?
-Right.

-Hey, it's Lee Seungcheon.
-What?

Hey, Lee Seungcheon!

This is going to be fun.

Hey, Underdog. I'm glad to see you.

You did a poor job
on my assessment last time.

You little…

Seungcheon, I got a B.

Why couldn't you do the money's worth?

Hey, hold on. Jinseok's dead now,

so he's the only
underprivileged in our school.

You're right.

Why did Jinseok have to die like that?

What an insult to our school.

I mean, it's the most prestigious
private high in this country!

Park Janggun.

That's too much.

-How scary.
-Was it too much?

No, not at all.

Was it too much?

I don't think so.

What's there to advertise
about committing suicide together

while holding out against the demolition?

What are you glaring at, you bastard?

Are you pissed that I'm running him down?

All right, punch me then.

Punch me.

I said, punch me!

I want nothing more than to punch you,

but I won't.

Because I have no money.

If I punch you,

it will cost me money.

Hey, he sure knows his place.

This is why I like him.

But I think I'll hit you a few times.

Why?

Because I have lots of money.

Because you would

do anything for money.

Hey.

All right, Seungcheon.
It's time to settle up.

Here's 50,000 won. 10,000 won per slap.

Satisfied?

Park Janggun.

What are you doing?

Taeyong.

Are you done paying your respects?
I was waiting for you.

Why would you wait for me?

We didn't agree to meet up.

Well, I just wanted to say hi.

What are you doing, Underdog?

-Go.
-Underdog?

Is that his name?
I thought it was Kim Seungcheon.

Taeyong, it's Lee Seungcheon, not Kim.
His surname is Lee.

Oh, right. Lee Seungcheon.

Lee Seungcheon,
what happened to your face?

Did you cry?

Were you close to Kang Jinseok?

-He was.
-Taeyong.

It's Park Jinseok, not Kang.
You know, the surname Park…

Don't mind him. He's just tactless.

Anyway, my father paid for the funeral.
Make sure they rest in peace.

Bye.

Behave yourself.

-Taeyong!
-I'll be watching you.

Behave.

Wait for me.
You know my full name, right?

Taeyong, you must be tired.
Take care. Bye.

-Take care.
-Hey.

-Hello!
-Hello!

-Goodbye.
-Bye.

I'm sorry, Father.
I needed to talk to my friends.

Your friends?

Is he your friend too?

Yes, he's one of my classmates.

Taeyong, what do you think a friend is?

Pardon?

Well, a friend is…

A friend spends time with you.

You share each other's time.

Your time must hold the same value
for you to be friends.

You'll be leading Doshin Group
worth trillions of won in the future.

How valuable do you think
an hour of your time is?

It's 4,580 won per hour,
and I work four hours a day for six days.

So that'd be 439,680 won, right?

NA JUHEE

"Lee Seungcheon."

Seungcheon.

Your name is Lee Seungcheon, right?

What's on your mind?

I taught you how to use the POS machine.

If the calculations don't add up,
you'll have to pay for it.

Tell the boss
if anything needs to be restocked.

Don't I have to sign a contract?

The boss might ask you
to bring your parents' written consent.

You okay with that?

It seems you ran away from home.

Any questions?

-No, right?
-I have one.

What happened? Did you get hurt?

Don't you want to work here
for a long time?

Then mind your own business.

Welcome.

Don't let it get to you.

And one more piece of advice.

Don't smile at customers
as you did just now.

Why shouldn't I do that?

You'll get exhausted if you keep smiling.

"You'll get exhausted
if you keep smiling."

Is it his thing to act cool or what?

He actually is a little cool.

-Goodbye.
-We have heartbreaking news.

Yesterday, a family of three
was found dead in a house

in the redevelopment area which will soon
be demolished by Doshin Construction.

The police are assuming
that the family was financially unstable

and ended up committing suicide together.

The details are currently
under investigation.

It's heartbreaking to know

-that when they were found…
-Isn't that house…

…a box of new sneakers was placed
next to their son

who went to a prestigious high school.

More from Reporter Hyun Moonsik.

DARLING DAUGHTER

Despite the struggles…

Yes, Sungah.

Mom, we have a problem.
The landlord is here again.

Goodness.

We'll pay you the money,
so get out of here, okay?

-You little…
-Calm down.

You said you'd pay me double
if I put off three months' rent.

You can't say otherwise now.

Pay you twice the rent?
That doesn't even make sense!

Who said that crap?

Ah. You didn't know?

Your father said that crap.

-My dad did?
-And he said

he wouldn't be late making payment
because he was a famous comic artist.

I looked him up online.

There's no webtoon artist
named Lee Cheol. Explain this.

I apologize. I'll wire the money
as soon as I get my advance.

Be quiet!

We're not getting out of here
until your husband comes, got it?

-Guys, camp out.
-Yes, sir.

Let me lie down.

Goodness.

Mom, Seungcheon's here.

Seungcheon, you're home.

He's not even saying hello.

So what if he goes to Seoul Jeil High?

He's completely rude.

Did you say you were waiting for my dad?

He's here.

Dad, what are you doing there? Come out.

What?

Hey.

And you'd get nothing from searching
Lee Cheol the webtoon artist.

He used to draw comics for rentals
more than ten years ago.

What are you, a cockroach?
What were you doing there?

Have you read "True Colors of Shaolin?"

It sold 100,000 copies.

I'll let you guys talk.

FIFTY THOUSAND WON

Seungcheon. It's time to settle up.

Here's 50,000 won.

Ten thousand won per slap.

Are you insane?

I know you hate Dad,
but how could you do that?

What? I didn't know you had money.

No, this is mine.

I went through hell for this.

Your money is your family's money.

We can pay our rent with this.

That won't solve the problem.

Our debt amounts to 400 million won!

Why did he even stand surety
when he had no money?

He didn't know uncle would go bankrupt.

He's just too kind.

Wake up.

It's going to take forever
to pay off that debt.

Your internship at the salon pays 550,000.
Mom waits tables to earn 1.8 million.

-That's hardly enough.
-So?

You'll go live your life
with the money you earned.

-Is that it?
-I've done enough.

Every time I got paid, I helped our family

with the overdue rent,
utility bills and such.

I'll find a way to survive myself,
so stay out of my business.

Get out!

Get out!

Why that little…

Hey.

Hey!

Open the door while I'm asking nicely.

Open the door!

Lee Seungcheon.

Lee Seungcheon!

Mom, what is wrong with him?

It's probably because of Jinseok.

What about him?

Why aren't you saying anything?

Jeez.

URGH

BEING POOR IS A SIN…

SLAM

FARTING DOESN'T COST MONEY

STINKY GAS FOR FREE, BAD BREATH ON ME!

HAAAAA

This is awesome.

This deserves to be serialized.

Who's the artist? "Lee Cheol?"

You read webtoons every day,

and now you even read those
of aspiring webtoon artists?

If the president finds out--

That is why I called you over
to stand watch.

Tell me as soon as Mr. Kang calls.

It's Gong, not Kang.

Why don't you call his name correctly?

Kang, Gong, whatever.

Did you finish reading
what the president told you to?

-The McKinsey report?
-Yes.

Why didn't you tell me sooner?

STINKY GAS FOR FREE, BAD BREATH ON ME!

MCKINSEY REPORT

MARKET EVOLUTION

It took too much time to summarize.

Actually,

I couldn't finish reading it.

I see.

Right.

You just didn't have enough time.

Only if you'd had enough time,

you wouldn't have shown me
this lousy piece of trash.

Use your chances wisely to prove yourself

because you may not always be given
another chance.

Father.

Of course,

it's up to you to waste your chances.

But you'll have to take responsibility.
You know that, don't you?

Mark my words.

WHAT IS JUSTICE
PARK JANGGUN

I'm at Taeyong's place,
so bring the homework there.

Let's see if you did the money's worth.

He's a nasty jerk.

You really are something, Park Janggun.

Why did you call Lee Seungcheon over?

I'm training that underdog.

He takes my money,
but he's not submissive enough.

You know I'm a huge fan of yours, right?

Yes, of course.

Taeyong, how did you like
your mom's performance today?

It was nice.

But it was a little too long.

I liked it though.

Yes, right. This piece is a little long.

Why don't you play a piece?

It's been a while
since I've heard you play.

I don't feel like playing the piano.

Sorry.

You know Park Jiwon,
also known as Yeonam, right?

That novelist got this for me
on his way back from the Qing dynasty.

I see.

-What?
-Let me see.

He also got me a wool brush.

It must be somewhere here.

Here it is.

Yeonam wrote

The Jehol Diary with this.

You make funny jokes, ma'am.

Then what,

is this made of pure gold?

Yes, of course.

You can take it for 30,000 won.

Come on. Pure gold can't be 30,000 won.

You don't believe what I say?

That's not just any golden spoon.

Look.

GOLDEN SPOON THAT MAKES YOU RICH
30,000 WON

This golden spoon can make you rich.

Excuse me?

It's entirely possible
if you are willing to swap your parents.

Swap parents?

Go to the house of a boy your age.

Eat three meals with this spoon.

Then your life will be switched with his,

and his parents will become your parents.

How do you expect me to believe that?

Even if it's true,

who would choose to swap
their own parents?

When you're at a crossroads,
you'll know what to do.

What do you say?

Don't you want to become rich?

Lee Seungcheon?

I've never seen him before.

Uh, I called him over.

He's here to do an errand for me.

Did you bring it?

WHAT IS JUSTICE

Good job.

You may go now.

Wait.

You're a guest too.
I shouldn't let you leave like this.

Prepare a seat for him.

Lee Seungcheon, eat before you leave.

What a lucky day for you, Underdog.

Taeyong, you could've just let him go
without feeding him.

He might make a habit of this.

Park Janggun, you called him over,

but this is my house. Knock it off.

So Lee Seungcheon,
what does your father do for a living?

He's a comic artist.

Right now, he draws webtoons.

Really? I like webtoons.

-What did he draw?
-He hasn't been published, has he?

Isn't he just an aspiring webcomic artist?

An aspiring artist?

Your father's so irresponsible.

Considering his age,
it doesn't sound right.

It's not right at all.

-He's selfish.
-Right.

Ooh. Wait. Not those.

Get him something else.

Seeing a golden spoon and chopsticks

might make this poor bum greedy.

You have ones made
with stainless steel, right?

Shiny stainless steel.

Those will do.

Park Janggun.

I'm sorry, but I was raised with care too.

When I eat,

I don't use just any spoons or chopsticks.

I'm quite treasured in my family, you see.

Thanks for the food, Taeyong.

Let's eat.

-Thanks for the food.
-Thanks.

What's this?

Look at this boy.

I must've been crazy.

I can't believe
I paid 30,000 won for this.

It was worth it, I guess.

What?

Mom.

Sungah.

Did the lights go out again?

Mom.

What are you doing?
Are you asleep already?

Sungah.

Dad.

Mom.

DEAR SEUNGCHEON… WE'RE SORRY

NO MATTER HOW MUCH WE THINK ABOUT IT,
THIS IS THE ONLY WAY

WE'RE REALLY SORRY.
OUR DEAR SON, SEUNGCHEON…

No… It can't be.

Mom. No!

Mom. Dad. Sungah!

Dad. Mom, wake up.

Mom, open your eyes.

Mom, wake up. Mom.

No…

No!

No…

No!

A 30,000-won golden spoon
that can make you become rich.

A weird old woman.

Eat three meals
at the house of a friend your age,

and your parents will be switched.

One month, one year,

ten years…

What do you say?
Don't you want to become rich?

THE DEVELOPMENT OF SUBPRIME
MORTGAGE CRISIS AND ITS IMPLICATION

Why does he want me
to write this stupid report?

We can just purchase buildings.

Why invest in REITs?

Probably because of the regulations.

If you invest in REITs,

you can hedge risk.

And separate taxation on dividend income
will get you a tax benefit.

Lee Seungcheon.

You're good.

Do you mind if I help you a little?

REITs usually make investments
in a form of property development

or purchase what's already been developed.

These charts show a gradual increase.

You're right.

I've checked some articles.
Urban housing took lead last year,

but this year,
profitable hotels are promising.

Profitable hotels?

Like business or tourist hotels.

We should look for a fund
that invests in such properties.

Isn't that Underdog?

What is he doing with Hwang Taeyong?

FROM HWANG TAEYONG

HWANG TAEYONG: 200,000 WON

You know what?

Poor people mistake kindness for a chance.

What do you mean?

Lee Seungcheon seems
to mistake your kindness.

I get what you mean.

But he knows where the line is.

That's a relief then.

By the way, did you know that
Juhee came back from the UK?

I heard she got expelled.
Maybe something happened.

Why are you telling me this?

I just thought you should know.

I see.

Were you worried about me?

Why?

That,

I'm not so sure.

I think I know why.

OH YEOJIN

You seem cheap.

I don't know why,
but you give off that vibe.

Jeez.

SEOUL JEIL HIGH, SENIOR CLASS 2,
STUDENT NUMBER 19, LEE SEUNGCHEON

"Seoul Jeil High?"

Don't touch what isn't yours.

Sorry. Do you go to Seoul Jeil High?

Isn't that for students with top grades?

For students with top grades
and lots of money.

That's not me though.

Which school do you go to?

Me?

I…

-You, young lady.
-I don't go to school.

-You are expelled from this school…
-JUHEE: I got expelled.

-…for disruptive and bad behavior.
-What? That's unexpected.

-Why should I be expelled?
-Why?

-I was just punishing them…
-JUHEE: For teaching bullies a lesson.

…for being racists.

But I don't regret it.

You should still get
a high school diploma.

A diploma is crucial

for the lives of poor people like us.

Without it,

you can't survive in this country.

Seungcheon, your friend is here for you.

Okay.

Put those away properly.

Hwang Taeyong?

Here, take it.

-What is it?
-I wanted to get you a gift,

but I didn't know what you'd want.

Thanks to you, my father
commended me for the first time.

You're silly.

You don't have to do this.

Just take it.

Accept your friend's good intentions.

-My friend?
-Yes, Seungcheon.

I know how to differentiate
what's real or fake.

Whether it's a painting,
a designer brand item,

or a person.

And Lee Seungcheon, you're the real deal.

You're my real friend.

See you.

What on earth?

The two of them are close?

When you arrive, you'll take
your math lesson right away.

After essay writing and science,

dinner will be
with the French ambassador's family.

-After that--
-I envy him.

-Pardon?
-I envy Lee Seungcheon.

He gets to live as he pleases.

He can sleep as much as he wants,
read webtoons freely,

and have a lot of free time.

He probably has a mom, too.

Today was the toughest day at work.

Already?

Tomorrow will be really tough.

New stock is coming in tomorrow.

Oh, dear.

Please enjoy.

DAD

Is it your mom?

No, my dad. My mom passed away.

I hung up because I knew
he'd nag at me to hurry home.

Hey, this is spicy and delicious.
Try some.

About the boy who came to see you earlier…

Are you friends with him?

Friends? He's the son
of Doshin Group's president.

The golden spoon of golden spoons.

There's no way we can be friends.

I think you're much better than him.

You make an effort to support yourself.
That's really admirable.

But you should smile a little.

On my first day, you said
I'd get exhausted if I kept smiling.

I got what you meant.

Even so, you need to smile a bit.

I saw you smile for the first time today.

-Really?
-Yes.

Sauce was on your face.

Seungcheon, what's your dream?

What about you?

Me? Well…

A novelist.

My dream was to write
novels like Harry Potter.

Right now, I'm not sure. What about you?

I want

to be rich.

To be rich? That's your dream?

I'll make lots of money and become rich.

What will you do then?

Isn't it obvious? There will be
so many things I can do.

I'll go study abroad and travel.

I'll do anything I want.

Ah. I'll buy my mom an apartment too.

And when I become rich…

When I become rich…

You should've paid me back
before you chose to die.

I will make sure to survive.

I will survive

and become rich.

-Move it.
-Come on.

"Yunsu," nice!

"Lee Seungcheon!"

-Unbelievable.
-Park Janggun,

you're the only one not on the list.

-Good job.
-He was always good.

LEE SEUNGCHEON
31ST: PARK JANGGUN

What, "30th, Lee Seungcheon?"

Why is he…

After all that money

you took from me,

how dare you sock it to me?

You didn't mark the answers correctly.

Are you saying it's my fault?

Whatever.

Drop out of Class Eagle.
Then I can join the class right away.

-No, I can't do that.
-No?

You're rich, and you have capable parents.

Class Eagle is all I have.
I must go to the SNU.

This bastard.

What are you saying?

-He's ridiculous.
-He's crazy.

Have you lost your senses
now that you hang out with Hwang Taeyong?

Seungcheon, nothing can change

the fact that
you are a dirt spoon for life.

Go for it.

No matter what you say,

I will never give this up.

Really?

Then I will make you

give it up.

You'd better wash that.

What brings you here at this hour?

What, did you get into a fight?

Ah. It's nothing.

I'm done with your investment report.

ASSET MANAGEMENT REPORT

Okay.

By the way, did you have dinner?

Dinner? Of course.
It's way past dinnertime.

Is that so?

I'm a little hungry.

Could I at least have
some instant noodles?

Instant noodles?

Let's eat.

Okay.

Oh, my. Do you carry your own spoon?

You brought it again today?
That's pretty funny.

-Let me--
-Hey. No.

Sorry. It's just that I'm really hungry.

Thank you for the food.

Honey.

Father.

Welcome home.

-Who is this?
-He's my classmate, Lee Seungcheon.

Lee Seungcheon?

Ah.

I saw him at the funeral.

Taeyong's friend said he was hungry.

Have you had dinner?

Friend?

Taeyong.

I thought I explained enough
about what a friend is.

Pardon?

I must have forgotten.

Oh.

-Seungcheon, let's go.
-What?

-Come on.
-Well…

I'm sorry, but go home for today.
I'll text you later.

Okay.

Wait.

I guess you were starving.

I apologize.

It's all right. You can have a seat
and take your time.

No, I'm done eating.

Goodbye.

Hey.

You forgot to take your thing.

I hope you will never
bring something like this here.

Not that we'll see you again.

Is it his first time here?

No, it's his second time.

He's so repulsive, isn't he?

CHIEF OF STAFF, PARK KIJU

Hello, Chief Park. How have you been?

Who? Is this Janggun?

Hello.

What is it that you have to tell me

about Taeyong?

What have I done?

I'm such an idiot.

Why does Father want to talk to me?

You sound very polite
when you need my help.

Let me tell you just one thing.

Beg him for forgiveness.

PROVIDING SERVICE AND PRODUCTS
TO VALUABLE CONSUMERS

You wrote that what caused
the subprime mortgage crisis

was a credit default swap.

When you sell a lousy product
and it goes under,

is it right to sell

profitable insurance?

Well,

it's not right.

Is it right?

I mean…

There's no way you can answer me.

Because you didn't write this.

Lee Seungcheon
wrote all the reports, didn't he?

He did a good job
with this investment report too.

I'm sorry, Father.
I wanted to be praised by you.

That's why I did it.

I see.

Then you should've been careful

not to get caught.

Shouldn't you have?

Father…

Father!

You need to get punished
for your wrongdoing.

I wonder what's suitable.

Should I send you back to the States?

Help…

Help me.

No, Father. Please no.

Father. Father. Father.

I'll do anything
except for going to the States.

Father. Father, I'm sorry.

Please forgive me once.

Father. Just this once…

You'll do anything?

All right.

Then

deal with Lee Seungcheon yourself.

Big news. Our new classmate
is the daughter of UBS TV's president.

Is that so?

-UBS TV's daughter?
-She is?

-Yes.
-She's the daughter?

UBS?

What's her name? Juhee?

What's her surname?

I heard she got expelled
from a boarding school in the UK.

-Really?
-Gosh, really?

Juhee, is that true?

Hey. What's with you?

Na Juhee, long time no see.

-Okay, her name is Na Juhee.
-Oh Yeojin?

Wait. "Long time no see?"

We're classmates? This is amazing.

-Yeojin, are you feeling all better now?
-What do you mean?

You were really sick
back in middle school.

It's all in the past now.

Juhee, did you transfer here
because of Hwang Taeyong?

No.

Where's Lee Seungcheon's desk?
I heard we're classmates.

So you already heard the rumor.

He'll probably be kicked out.
He caused a big problem.

What?

Our son took money from him?

That makes no sense.

I thought of handling this matter quietly,

but educationally speaking,
I just couldn't condone it.

This is Mr. Hwang Taeyong's
account history.

From as little as 50,000 won

to 300,000 won at most.

He was extorted of money several times.

He also took cash, so we assume
that the actual amount is much bigger.

Seungcheon.

No, Mom.

Dad, look at me.
I never extorted money from him.

He gave me the money
in return for helping him.

Hey, Taeyong. You know
I didn't extort money from you.

You're lying.

You demanded money
to sign up for online classes.

You threatened me
for your prep class fees.

I never did that! Hey, why are you lying?

Why are you suddenly doing this to me?

Seungcheon.

I'm scared of him.

He speaks differently here,
but he threatened me when we were alone.

I felt like he'd kill me.

-Hwang Taeyong.
-May I go now?

I can't stand being here.

Taeyong.

Call for a school
violence committee right away.

I cannot let my Taeyong
attend school with that boy.

Taeyong, it's okay. Let's go.

I'll make sure you get expelled.

Let's go, Taeyong.

It's not true.

Dad.

Wait, ma'am.

Just a moment, ma'am.

-Honey.
-Dad.

Please show mercy.
Show us mercy this once.

What are you doing?

What do you think you are doing right now?

-Sir, don't do this.
-Please.

Please, ma'am.

Our son has to go to college.
Please show mercy.

Taeyong, please do me a favor.

Couldn't you let it slide just once?

I beg you.

Taeyong.

I beg you. Forgive him this once.

-Stand up.
-Please, Taeyong.

Taeyong! Please, I beg you.

-Stand up.
-Taeyong, I'm begging you!

Please.

Jeez.

Seungcheon's dad must love him dearly.

Janggun, you'll be able
to join Class Eagle now.

I know.

I didn't know President Hwang would be
this quick in taking action.

Wait! Please.

Don't. I beg you.

Please. Ma'am.

Please forgive him.
Seungcheon has to go to college.

-Sir.
-Just this once for our son.

-Sir.
-Just this once, ma'am.

MOM

The person you have called--

Why won't he answer his phone?

I guess you got scared
to hear that I'd talk to your dad.

You came so easily.

Why did you want to see me?

Let's be honest with each other.

Why are you doing this to me?

I never threatened you for money.

Right, I admit it.

I made good use of you.

But I don't need you anymore.

That's the reason.

That can't be a reason.

I'm about to get expelled because of you.

I'll have you drop out.

It's better than being expelled.

How could you do this to me?

I thought we were friends.

Friends? You and I are friends?

Did you forget? You said yourself
that we were real friends.

Hey, what do you take me for?

You can't be friends with me,
Hwang Taeyong.

You live in a semi-basement
and wear a second-hand uniform

and cheap sneakers!

So how can you be my friend?

What?

This is why
I shouldn't be good to the poor.

They don't know their place
and cling to me like you!

All right.

This is good enough.

I'm going to play this
during the committee hearing.

What are you doing?

You said it yourself that you lied.

VOICE RECORDING

Fine, go ahead.

I'm Hwang Taeyong of Doshin Group.

I may be suspended at most,

but it'll be different for you.

My father won't leave you be.

Your family will be done for!

Yes, perhaps.

But what if that isn't the end?

I'm going to spread this
to the media, online, everywhere.

So that the whole country finds out

the rotten nature of you and your family!

I'll pay you. You like money.

You like money.

I'll pay you. Here, take this.

Take the money now!

Give me your phone.
Delete the recording, you bastard!

No, I'll take this to the end.

I won't leave you be either!

Who do you think you are?

How dare you try me, bastard?

Hey, Hwang Taeyong!

Seungcheon!

Hwang Taeyong!

-Taeyong.
-Seungcheon.

-Seungcheon, hold on.
-Help me.

-Seungcheon.
-Don't let go, help.

Taeyong.

Seungcheon, hold my hands tightly.

Help!

Taeyong!

Taeyong, help me.

-Taeyong!
-No, hold on!

Taeyong.

Hwang Taeyong, no!

Seungcheon!

Seungcheon!

Seungcheon! Seungcheon!

Seungcheon!

EMERGENCY NUMBER

Emergency services. How may I help you?

Hello?

Hello?

Am I really

going to die?

Jinseok.

Is this how you felt when you died?

Well, all right.

It might be good to die here.

Rather than struggling
as a dirt spoon all my life,

this might be better.

Jinseok.

So are you resting in peace?

Look. This golden spoon can make you rich.

Jinseok.

I won't die like you.

I won't submit to my fate.

At any cost,

I will make sure

to survive.

-Where's Taeyong?
-He isn't home yet.

Did you handle the matter at his school?

President Hwang!

President Hwang.

President Hwang.

You are…

President Hwang, I'm here
to ask you for a favor.

A favor?

Could I have a meal?

-A meal?
-I know you don't like me.

This will be my last request.

Could I have

just one meal?

SPECIAL THANKS TO SHIN JOO HYUP
FOR HIS GUEST APPEARANCE

THE GOLDEN SPOON

Everything around you will change
except for you.

I'm Na Juhee, Hwang Taeyong's fiancee.

This is awesome.

-Mom.
-Yes, it's me.

Seungcheon!

Does Hwang Taeyong
have feelings for Juhee?

Mr. Hwang Taeyong sent these.

Aren't you curious
about how I'll abuse my power?

Lee Seungcheon has always been our toy.

Kill him. Let's just kill him off.
