[tense music playing]

I was waiting to say I'm returning
to the chairman's office tomorrow.

There was no need to come
all the way to my room for that.

Actually, I need to tell you
something privately.

President Huh,

you attempted to kill me.

That makes you an attempted murderer.

From now on,

I'll be making good use of that weakness.

[dramatic music playing]

I was waiting to tell you that.

I'll see you at the office, then.

Director Seo…

When did your memory come back?

Did you even lose
your memory to begin with?

If I hadn't lost my memory,

why would I have jumped into the sea
to save the man who shot me?

Isn't that right, President Huh Ildo?

President…

Huh Ildo.

[Dongju and Wonbae grunting, gasping]

[Wonbae] He's not breathing.

[Wonbae grunting]

[Wonbae sighs in relief]

Gosh, he's finally breathing again.

[panting]

He's the one who shot me.

[Wonbae] What?

If he shot you,
you should've just let him drown.

Why did you save him?

To get my revenge.

EPISODE 10

[Dongju] Chief.

I'm calling a board meeting.

[Gihyeon] A board meeting?

Yes, Chief.

To finalize your vice-chairman promotion.

[tense music playing]

CHAIRMAN CHA GANGCHEON

Darn.

[Gangcheon] Mr. Yeom.

What brings you here?

What do you mean?

I came to share good news,
Chairman. [chuckles]

[Gangcheon] Are you having the stalled
crude oil import credit line approved?

I put in a lot of effort, Chairman.

It wasn't easy to persuade The Elder.

I told him he can't neglect a partner
in this National Patriotism Project.

I pleaded The Elder, over and over again.

[Cheolyong] After I was asked
by Director Seo,

I told Daesan Energy's partner bank

to ensure smooth support
for the oil import.

As Director Seo said, a partner
in the National Patriotism Project

should never have been neglected
in the first place.

If we keep this up,
who would trust us enough to work with us?

And, Jangseon,

from now on,
let Director Seo handle the money.

Since you've solved
Daesan Energy's big issue,

we'll repay the favor. [chuckles]

Well, if that puts your mind at ease.

Anyway, gold's holding

more value than the dollar these days.

[Gangcheon] Director Seo,
wire it to the Swiss account.

- About the Swiss account--
- [Gangcheon] Right.

Yes, Mr. Yeom.

Director Seo will wire a generous amount
so you can save face before The Elder.

Yes. I'll wire it to the Swiss account
as soon as possible, sir.

Father, wouldn't it be better
to show your gratitude directly

to Mr. Yeom for his efforts?

[Gangcheon] Really?

Would you prefer that?

[Dongju] Mr. Yeom

values his dignity in front of The Elder
above all else, Chairman.

That's what they say. [laughs]

[Gangcheon] I can't express

how glad I am
that Director Seo regained his memory.

Aren't you glad too, Mr. Yeom?

Yes, I'm very glad.

[Jangseon and Gangcheon laughing]

Now that Director Seo
can even read Mr. Yeom's mind,

isn't it reassuring?

Please keep guiding
and supporting my eldest son-in-law

so he can grow into a great person.

As for the long-vacant
Vice-Chairman position at Daesan Group…

I'm promoting Chief Secretary Choi Gihyeon
to lay the groundwork.

Once the time is right
and internal support grows,

I'll pass that position
on to President Huh Ildo.

[Gangcheon laughing]

[suspenseful music playing]

Don't put anyone through.

Yes, sir.

[Ildo grunts]

[Ildo] Sir.

[high-pitched ringing]

[breathing heavily]

[high-pitched ringing]

[man screaming, grunting]

[somber music playing]

[exhales loudly]

[detective] Huh Ildo,

I'll say this one more time.

Fill in every blank with no exceptions.

HUH ILDO

[young Ildo screams]

[muffled screaming]

That's enough!

Hey.

Help him up.

Get the hell out, you bastards!

Huh Ildo.

I'm sorry about this.

Let me apologize on their behalf.

Okay?

Goodness.

ORGANIZATIONAL CHART

Here.

[sinister music playing]

[young Ildo screams]

President Huh.

Are you really not going to tell me?

All this happened because you couldn't
get rid of that rat, Seo Dongju.

Why did you attack the Administrator
when he tried to kill Seo Dongju?

I need to know why.

Did you start feeling sorry
for Seo Dongju when you got there?

Of course not. That's…

definitely not the case.

Taeyun was
in Director Seo's hospital room.

When I saw Taeyun
worrying about Director Seo there,

I made a mistake due to a misjudgment.

I won't make this mistake ever again.

You're too attached to your kid,
it's worrying me.

Being this sentimental…

How do you expect to handle bigger things?

[music fades]

I ended up making you bleed.

You know, when people get angry,
they lash out at the ones closest to them.

Back when you were a college student,

in the patriotic effort
to save this country…

From the moment you and I first met,

I've always valued you
more than my own family.

Don't forget that.

Come up with a plan

on how to deal with Seo Dongju.

PRESIDENT HUH ILDO

[Ildo] The two trillion won…

The Elder only intervened

for the National Patriotism Fund
that Director Seo controls.

If I take over Daesan Group
as we originally planned,

we will secure enough funds
to finance the National Patriotism Fund.

Then,

The Elder will have no reason
to stick with Director Seo.

[dramatic music playing]

Well, if that happens,

we'll be able to
take The Elder's involvement back.

But Seo Dongju will try to use Ji Seonu
to take control of Daesan Group.

[music fades]

Where were you last night?
You came home so late.

Mom.

The old man with
the iced vanilla latte and extra syrup.

He forgot where he lived.
I helped him find his way home.

Forgot where he lived?

Yeah. Oh, right.
He even called me his son.

He forgets his way home,
calls anyone his son,

and walks around barefoot.

I feel bad for the old man.

I'll be good to him next time he comes.

[truck honks]

It must be the flour.

[Yeongsu] Seonu, still a lot left?

- No, it's the last load.
- Gosh, that was quick.

[somber music playing]

Is Mom here?

Ma'am! Hello.

My sneakers!

You said you didn't know our bakery.

I guess Dongju told you.

Did he try the cookies I baked?

Mom, can I get you something to drink?

She's leaving soon, Seonu.

Iced vanilla latte.

Should I add…

extra syrup to that?

[Seonu] You're having the same drink
as the old man.

As his daughter,

I should at least be aware
of what my father drinks when he's out.

If he ever falls ill,
it'll be a big problem.

Leave after your drink.

- [thuds]
- [Yeongsu grunts]

[dramatic music playing]

Hey.

It's up to me to end this conversation.

Unless you want your son to see this,
sit still.

Yeongsu.

Did you forget our deal?

You swore you'd never
even go near Daesan ever again.

How could I forget?

I swore on my life.

Because you've kept that promise,

you and your son are still alive.

Yeongsu.

If you

put your trust in Director Seo,

I will have you and your son
disappear without a trace.

Be careful.

Don't make your son show up
in front of my father again.

[music fades]

I heard you missed
the meal to celebrate my discharge

because you were feeling unwell.

Are you feeling better, Ms. Cha?

Director Seo,

don't waste your time.

Ji Seonu will never be part of our family.

Father's health is getting worse,

and all your efforts will go to waste.

That's why the chairman
entrusted this task to me.

To make sure it doesn't go down the drain.

It's our family's business.

We won't tolerate outsiders interfering.
Keep that in mind.

Or you'll regret it later.

Ms. Cha…

The matter with Seonu

is about Daesan Group.

I understand your concern
for Taeyun's future,

but handling this emotionally
as a family matter

could lead to irreversible consequences.

Is this a threat?

Did it sound like one?

Hey.

- Seo Dongju.
- [Seonu] Dongju!

[dramatic music playing]

- Dongju!
- Hey.

- Hey, man. Have you eaten?
- I have.

- Let's head in.
- Okay.

[music ends]

[Dongju] I'm even thinking about marriage.

To make Seonu become part of the family,

you've endured until he's old enough.

You opened this bakery here
so the chairman could come and go freely

to see Seonu whenever he wanted.

This is the worst kind of slander.

I did this to make a living with Seonu…

You can be honest with me, Ms. Ji.

Seonu joining Daesan Group…

won't be easy.

As his mother, you must stay by his father
as his legal wife.

So…

you're saying…

That's impossible.

But how can I

make that possible?

If you trust me and follow my lead,

I can make it possible.

If you agree with me,

I'll call Seonu here.

[tense music playing]

[line ringing]

- [Seonu] Yes, Dongju.
- Hey, Seonu.

We need to talk. Come over here.

[Seonu] What is it?

[music fades]

[sighs]

[lighter clicking]

[sighs, chuckles]

NAMWON INSTRUMENT BASEMENT SHOPPING CENTER

Twinkle, twinkle, little star

How I wonder what you are

Up above the world so high

Like a diamond in the sky

Twinkle, twinkle, little star

[Taegeum] I sent all the data
on Yeom Jangseon's properties

and everything from President Huh's phone

to that tablet.

I think we've found
almost all of the properties he hid

under different names.

Almost isn't enough.

Let's find all of them.

I should've grabbed coffee on the way.

Try this.

Mmm.

This wakes you up. It's great.

Find everyone connected
to Yeom Jangseon in any way,

especially those he locked up
when he was a prosecutor.

- Every one of them.
- Okay.

[somber music playing]

[woman] Seong Hyeon!

Mom!

Oh, that?

Linking the data
from President Huh's phone

must have sent this as well.

It's nothing important.

After Huh Ildo's phone was taken,
his friend, Kang Seong, sent the photo.

[Seong] Do you remember this, Ildo?

When I got my job at the tree farm,
you all came to congratulate me.

This is the photo we took then.

Me, Sunho, Gyeongwon, and you,

all in our prime.

Looking at this photo made me miss Sunho,

so I'll go and pour him a drink.

[Taegeum] There was nothing
on the Administrator's phone.

Calls, messages,

everything's been erased.

I expected it,
but he's more thorough than I thought.

He's probably used to managing
everything strictly by now.

However…

Cho Yangchun made a significant remark.

[Yangchun] Let's end this now.

Okay?

I really didn't know
who I was dealing with.

It was all Yeom Jangseon's orders.

Aren't you curious about
what could finish off Yeom Jangseon?

If you let me out,

I'll find it for you.

[breathing heavily]

Dandelion…

[exhales with satisfaction]

Ever heard…

of the Dandelion Team?

The Dandelion Team?

National Security Agency's secret unit.

Chaebols, the media, and lawmakers…

All the powerful
and influential people in Korea,

we surveilled them.

The Administrator is our boss.

But with the wave

of democratization
in the National Security Agency,

the Dandelion Team was suddenly disbanded.

And all their files vanished.

Where do you think they are now?

What does it have to do
with Yeom Jangseon?

Even Yeom Jangseon couldn't escape it.

He was a key surveillance target.

We didn't pledge loyalty to people.

From his corrupt dealings
to his everyday conversations,

we have recordings of everything.

That's why he's been desperately

searching for them since then.

[Dongju] Ma Jaeyeol,
a journalist, came to ask

if you've ever been blackmailed
with the NSA's Dandelion Team files.

That means
even these journalists know about them.

Chairman, were you aware
such files existed?

Mr. Yeom warned me about them before.

He said there were such dangerous files,
but he couldn't destroy the original.

And that if anyone used it for blackmail,
I should let him know immediately.

How can I believe you?

[wheezing laugh]

Ask the Administrator

or Yeom Jangseon about it.

Let's shake up
Cho Yangchun and the Administrator

to uncover Yeom Jangseon's weak spot.

Let's secure
the Dandelion files ourselves.

Okay.

A good beating
and some hunger did the trick.

Cho Yangchun spilled everything.
I was shocked. Wow.

LET'S MAKE A TRADE,
THE DANDELION FILES FOR CHO YANGCHUN

[Dongju] Aren't you going to reply?

[suspenseful music playing]

You had to make me come looking for you.

[Administrator] Dandelion?

That never existed.

It's just rumors.

Cho Yangchun has been
desperately waiting for you.

Is he useless to you now?

Oh Jungho, former National Security Agency
Team Dandelion's leader.

Put me on the phone with Yangchun.

- Ilnam.
- Yeah.

Use the burner phone to connect
Cho Yangchun and the Administrator.

He took the bait.

But do you think
the Administrator will act as expected?

[sighs]

Let's try planting doubt in his head.

How I found about the Dandelion files
and how much Cho Yangchun's spilled…

Those small doubts will tear them apart.

That's true.

Seong Hyeon… I mean, Dongju.

Ever since you went to Q Salon
with that ripped suit

to look for its owner,

have your predictions
ever been wrong? Never.

Except maybe that The Elder
took longer than expected to meet you.

One more thing.

The cinnamon attack.

And Sister Agnes…

Because The Elder took so long to react,

you had a lot of close calls with death.

You held out and held out again,
until now.

It's impressive.

If it weren't for you and Taegeum,
I'd be dead already.

Gosh.

Don't mention it.

Well, then, I'll go fishing now.

Thank you.

Of course.

[suspenseful music playing]

CHEON GUHO

[Guho] Sir.

While the Administrator secured
the Dandelion files, Seo Dongju caught on.

Since Seo Dongju
might be scheming behind the scenes,

go check it yourself.

Yes, sir.

[music fades]

[Wonbae] Hey! Get up!

Your boss wants to talk to you.

Goodness.

Here.

I'll let you talk to your boss,
so choose your words wisely. Got it?

[line ringing]

[phone vibrating]

Boss!

It's me, Yangchun.

Yangchun, are you okay?

[Yangchun] Yes, I'm fine.

Well…

You haven't given up on me, right?

You're coming to get me, right?

I will. Hang in there a little longer.

Then I'll get Seo Dongju…

[Yangchun grunts]

When are you bringing the Dandelion files?

That's right.

Yes, right.

He said he only heard
about them through rumors.

He promised to find and send them ASAP.

We must get the files

before he changes his mind
and gives them to Yeom Jangseon.

[Wonbae] Yes, we should.

But why is Yeom Jangseon
so desperate to find the Dandelion files?

Because there was a time

when he was a high-ranking official
under surveillance.

Yeom Jangseon must have a lot to hide.

[ominous music playing]

Here's the location
of the phone from the call.

Is this all?

Once my safety is guaranteed,

I'll hand over the rest.

So you're saying Mr. Cho
might have leaked Dandelion to Seo Dongju?

Let's take care of Mr. Cho first.

After that,
we'll make sure you're protected.

CHEON GUHO:

[intense music playing]

[Wonbae] Excuse me.

[man exclaims]

Damn it!

It's okay.

Sleep tight.

[Yangchun] Who are you?

Who is that?

- [Administrator] Yangchun!
- Yes, boss!

I'm over here!

Please untie this for me.

[Yangchun straining]

[Yangchun choking]

[Yangchun exclaiming]

[Yangchun] Hey, you bastard!

Did you really come here to kill me?

Darn it!

Seo Dongju was right, darn it!

[Yangchun screams]

Tell me where the Dandelion files are.

If you tell me, I'll let you live.

Yangchun!

You think they'll let you live
if you do this?

You bastard!

[metal clanging]

[music fades]

What are you doing?

What the hell are you doing?
That's not what you said!

I changed my mind.

Stop fighting

and figure out together
how you can bring me

the Dandelion files.

[Administrator] Seo Dongju!

Haven't we met once before,
a long time ago?

[Administrator's wheezing laugh]

I know about your father very well.

You should go to the hospital.

Your fever's worse than before.

You're the one who should go.

It's just a scratch.

It's already healed.

I'm more worried about Taeyun than myself.

He hasn't been eating well lately.

He says he's not sick, but…

[sighs]

No, the biggest concern is…

Seo Dongju.

Seo Dongju…

Why did you still save me
after recognizing me in the water?

You'll learn…

the reason soon enough,

and it'll hurt down to your bones.

Today's breakfast is supposedly
to celebrate my discharge.

After your workout,
please join us in time.

[Taeyun] Dad, Dongju's woken up!

Dongju…

KANG SEONG

[phone vibrating]

It's Kang Seong.

He's calling me
since you aren't reachable.

Yes, Seong. It's me.

Yes, okay.

Actually, I lost my phone.

Yes.

A photo?

No, I didn't receive it.

Yes, okay.

Okay, I'll see you.

He says hello to you.

Turn the lights off.

That photo…

On that day…

I took it.

Let me see.

Wow. Deokhui,
you're great at taking pictures.

Have a look.

Isn't it a great photo?

- Yes.
- Wow.

I want to keep that photo.

[Seong] What? I want to keep it too.

What should we do?

Okay, I'll give it to you.

Here.

Deokhui, let's take one more photo.

- Come here.
- Yes.

Honey, join us.

I'm okay.

Let's take one first,
and Deokhui can join us after.

Just like we did earlier, Mom.

What?

Let's do that.

Sure.

[Sunho straining]

Now.

My goodness, you're heavy.
You're so heavy.

- You ate a lot.
- Why did you have so much delicious food?

Huh?

Let's see.

Where are you going? How far?

[Administrator] Haven't we met
once before, a long time ago?

I know about your father very well.

[gloomy music playing]

Congrats.

Thanks.

Cheese.

- [man] I'll take the photo.
- Sure.

[man] One, two, three.

[camera shutter clicks]

Yes, thank you.

Congrats.

Thank you.

Yeonju.

Now that I'm a director,

how about we visit Father together?

Father? Who?

Professor Lee Supyung, who left us.

Why are you so shocked?

I saw you smiling while looking at photos
on his university's website.

I'd like to meet him.

I…

don't want to meet him, Dongju.

It took me a long time to erase
the resentment and hatred I had for him.

So,

think of him as someone unrelated to you

and erase him from your heart.

[music fades]

Hello, Professor.

I'm not Professor Lee Supyung.

He's on sabbatical and now overseas.

I came to water his plants.

[door closes, locks]

We've…

met before, right?

Yes, we met at
Prosecutor Yeom Huicheol's wedding.

We also met at the principal's office
of Gangshin High School.

I didn't think you'd remember that.

I wasn't sure at the wedding,
but it came to me later.

Back then, my older brother

shouldn't have interfered
with Huicheol's rugby team.

Then, you and Huicheol
would've gotten along well.

If you have anything to tell
Professor Lee Supyung, let me know.

I'll pass it on to him.

Seo Yeonju…

Please tell him
she passed away in an accident.

I heard that Supyung

received the news about Sister Agnes.

He received the news?

How?

Since the convent knew

Supyung was her biological father,

they must have contacted him.

[melancholy song playing]

I see.

I didn't know, so I came here.

My sister missed our father dearly.

I came thinking our father should know
that my sister is no longer here.

And…

I've wanted to meet
my father at least once.

[song ends]

INDOOR GOLF PRACTICE RANGE

CEO OFFICE

CEO PI JEONGHUI

[Chiseon] Since you wanted the truth…

You're…

not Supyung's son.

Madame Pi.

Were you aware
that I'm not blood-related to my sister?

Dongju…

you ate a double portion
of jajangmyeon just fine,

so why are you saying
weird stuff like that?

Well…

If I ever…

got to meet Professor Lee Supyung,

I wanted to impress him.

So I went into business school
to follow suit.

"Like father, like son.
You can't fool blood."

I wanted to hear that, I guess.

But turns out he's not my father.

Dongju…

I'm not Professor Lee's son,

and I'm not my mother's son.

Not your mother's son? Then what…

What are you talking about?

[sighs]

Who said that?

Seriously, who said that?

My mother did.

My mother, Ko Youjin.

[Chiseon] So,

after breaking up with Supyung,

a few years later,

Ko Youjin came looking for him,
asking for help.

She adopted a son
so her daughter wouldn't grow up alone,

but she was struggling financially.

Before Yeonju joined the convent,
she visited Professor Lee.

I really wanted to go too,

but I held back.

When I heard
I'd become a national rugby player,

when I passed the GED
and got into business school,

when I joined Daesan Group

and got promoted to director…

During all those times,

I missed my father.

A whole lot too.

If I meet him,
I'll ask why he abandoned us.

After unloading everything…

After that,

I'll ask if I can visit sometimes.

If he says yes,

I'd go see him now and then,

and greet him like, "Father, I'm here."

That's what I wanted.

You knew from the start, right?

Then, where on earth did Mom pick me up?

She didn't.

You came.

To Yeonju and her mom.

They said you walked in.

You're lying again.

I'm being serious.

You…

You walked into Yeonju's house.

I have something to show you.

[digital beep, metal clanging]

Open it.

[scoffs]

What's this?
Why did you even put this in a safe?

When you walked into Yeonju's house,
you were wearing these clothes.

She left it with me
before joining the convent.

Wow, the Daesan badge.

I remember this.

I wore it every day.

I think

this is why I kept this tin
in the safe, Dongju.

Is this me?

Yes, it's you.

How do you know if it's me?

I may

not have breastfed you,

but I bathed and fed you.

Your mom raised you,
and half of that is thanks to me.

If I say it's you,
you've got to take my word for it.

[dramatic music playing]

It's the same photo.

Dongju.

The person carrying you
must be your father.

Right?

[music fades]

Sir.

Calling an old man like me out

at this ungodly hour

could seriously hurt

my chances of a long life.

Jangseon.

Yes, brother.

Why are you messing
with my hometown cousin's son?

It seemed like

my very selfish brother
had forgotten what I do,

so I'd raise a bit of a fuss
on the outskirts.

[sighs]

Call off the investigation, now.

You should've said that earlier.

Too late now. It's already on the news…

[newscaster] Lee Jeongtae,
known as President Lee Cheolyong's nephew,

allegedly embezzled
government water resource research funds,

according to an internal whistleblower.

The prosecution is investigating.

[dramatic music playing]

You know I'm not in a position
to call off this investigation.

So you tell them to stop, Jangseon!

How can you be so out of touch?

If we stop the investigation,
people will get suspicious.

I told you, it's just a bit
of a fuss on the outskirts.

Now that I have

reminded you what I'm capable of…

"Nothing serious has been found
after investigation."

I'll have it end with that conclusion.

[sighs deeply]

[music fades]

[phone vibrating]

Yes.

Really?

Well, that's not a bad idea.

That's true.

Yes, you're right.

[tense music playing]

[music fades]

Why are you up so early?

I didn't sleep.

Well…

The other day,

you packed and left, then came back.

Did my begging
get through to you a little?

Tell me the truth.

If I ask for a divorce,

I'd have to pay a penalty
way more than the stocks

I got from this marriage.

That's why you came back.

I'm sorry.

That money…

I'll prepare it for you.

[melancholy music playing]

I packed some of your clothes.

Leave this house right now.
I'll send the rest later.

- Huicheol.
- I'm kicking you out.

I'm asking for a divorce,
so no penalty needed.

I'll file the papers today.

We don't even have kids,

so it won't take long.

I'll let my aunt and uncle know.

You were going to divorce me…

and go to that bastard, right?

[sighs] I'm going to shower.

I'd like you to be gone when I'm done.

Eunnam.

I'm getting a divorce.

What were you staring at so hard?
You didn't even notice me coming.

Well…

I told you before

about the professor
who ditched me and my sister.

- That professor--
- Where did you get this photo?

Do you know him?

Yes.

That's my dad.

[melancholy song playing]

BURIED HEARTS

Please keep it a secret until the end
that the child named Seong Hyeon is me.

[Jeongja] Give up Eunnam.

[Eunnam] The kid's mother and my dad.
Huh Ildo killed them all.

Director Seo will help you, so start
learning the ropes of the company.

[Jangseon] She will be your solid ally.

I'm about to introduce someone
who's like a gift to you.

What the elders of Daesan Group did to me.

[Dongju] You thought Seong Hyeon was dead,
but he showed up alive as Seo Dongju.

Do you still wish for him to die?

It's almost a shame to kill him.
