People begin and end their day...

by searching things on the web.

They check the weather.

They save time.

They take care of the necessities of life.

They conveniently find the information they need.

And they buy and sell second-hand goods in peace.

(- Is the keyboard sold? - Yes.)

The one and only tool that provides all this information...

regardless of the time, place, and nationality...

are search engines.

The accumulated search volume per search engine...

adds up to 430 million per day.

An average of 5,000 search words get searched every second.

Each person searches the web at an average of 63.8 times per day.

Any Korean who uses the Internet...

is bound to search the web at least once every day.

And all those search words are counted in real-time.

and what they're currently...

interested in.

(Real-time keyword ranking: 1: Unicon, 2. Unicon's corruption)

I am Assemblyman Joo Seung Tae from New Hanguk Party.

Like you already mentioned, Unicon is Korea's number one search engine.

It plays a crucial role in forming public opinion.

How could a company like that manipulate keywords?

Unicon is no longer a private company.

It has great responsibility and duty to offer correct information...

to the public.

Up until now, Unicon kept its sales, business profits,

corporate tax, and employment information confidential...

because of the fact that it's a foreign affiliate company.

However, that won't be possible with this case.

Please take a look at the screen.

As you can see, it's been over 30 minutes since the hearing began.

And the real-time keyword ranking hasn't changed at all.

(Real-time keyword ranking, 1: Unicon, 2. Unicon's corruption)

I guess you're not manipulating anything today.

However, six months ago, during the presidential elections,

four negative keywords...

regarding the presidential candidate, Lee Wook Hyeon...

suddenly vanished into thin air.

All four of them disappeared at the same time!

Due to our algorithm,

it's very common for keywords to suddenly disappear.

Then why can't you disclose that algorithm?

Asking us to disclose our algorithm...

is the same as asking a murderer to share his or her tactics.

It can be misused to manipulate real-time keywords.

It seems like your company is the one that's misusing it.

The Internet is where an elementary school kid should be able...

to have an argument with a professional.

It should hold no prejudice against people's age, social status, gender,

race, or educational background.

It's where people should be able to freely share their opinions.

It should be the most neutral and the most diverse.

That's what the Internet is.

I see.

Director Bae Ta Mi, let me ask you one more time.

Please give me an honest answer.

Did you or did you not manipulate the real-time keywords?

(Witness, Bae Ta Mi)

(Episode 1)

(Unicon Headquarters)

It dropped. I wonder why.

10th floor.

Hold on. Wait up!

I'm sorry about that.

Why...

11th floor.

Oh, of course. Thank you.

Good morning, Director Bae Ta Mi.

Have we met before?

Yes, you were at my job interview three weeks ago.

I'm Senior Manager Choi Bong Gi of the Media Department.

Congratulations. I see it was you who got the job.

Weren't you involved in the hiring?

I was, but I recommended someone else.

So I didn't impress you.

Then I'll do better and prove myself to you.

You can address me casually.

Sure.

We'll be busy when the presidential election begins.

Especially the Media Department.

The workload is fine, but there's no time for dates.

Your lover will be angry.

Gosh, you're old-fashioned.

These days, girlfriends are called GFs.

10th floor.

I was being considerate...

since I don't know if you're gay, bisexual, or straight.

I'll see you later then.

Hello.

- Hello, everyone. - Hi.

The presidential debate is tomorrow at 8pm, right?

Yes, once the debate is over, you'll arrange the associated...

articles and videos on the main page.

- Sure thing. - Who do you think will win?

Probably Lee Wook Hyeon.

His points were up five percent today.

There's something more pressing than the election though.

Director Bae took the subway to work today.

Oh, my gosh.

Why? What does her taking the subway mean?

- Well... - Did you check our share?

- Yes. - Yes!

(Search Engine Market Share Graph)

Here's the market share for the search engines.

Unicon is down 0.5 percent...

while Barro is up 0.5 percent.

The gap is now exactly 10 percent.

0.5 percent of the users switched from Unicon to Barro.

0.5 percent of all users is 150,000 people.

150,000 is the population of Uiwang, Gyeonggi Province.

That means we lost a whole city of users.

It's within the margin of error, so is it a big deal?

Our market share was up 11 percent 4 weeks ago,

but it's been 10 percent these past 3 weeks.

- Is it meaningless? - It could be.

Unicon has been the market leader for 10 years.

Its brand value is worth more than 0.5 percent in market share.

- Really? - Yes.

Senior Manager Nam Min Ji, you're drinking Jeil Milk.

That's right.

Why? Isn't Seorim Milk trending these days?

I've always been drinking this brand of milk...

and I have no particular complaints.

- Senior Manager Lee Jae Seung. - Yes?

You're watching your usual show on TV,

but it's not entertaining. What would you do?

I'll have to switch the channel.

Mr. Choi.

Yes?

What's the difference?

How do you find the Internet?

Is it like a milk brand or a TV show?

Milk costs less than a dollar, but people rarely switch brands.

Why? You have to buy milk from other brands...

to know which tastes better.

It's only a dollar, but there are too many options.

However, we easily change TV channels.

Why?

Because it's free and you get an instant comparison.

With the Internet, it's not about which is more popular.

Which is easier and simple is the key.

With just a single click,

you can compare sites without spending a penny.

- Senior Manager Choi. - Yes?

Which is the most searched keyword on Unicon?

It's "Barro".

Really?

Online users never settle.

It's like how you went from...

a mini homepage, to Facebook, to Instagram.

Let's say one typed in "Good restaurants in Hongdae".

If all the search results are of blogs with advertisement,

the next searched keyword will be "Barro".

When that train of actions happen,

we lose 150,000 users.

Do you still think it's a meaningless number?

Ms. Bae, do you have a second?

No, I don't think I do.

"Inju Firework Festival" is up at 28th place.

Inju Firework Festival was advertised at 11am on the main page.

It climbed up the rankings without going viral anywhere.

That means the advertisement on our page was the main source.

Should we delete this?

It's our policy to delete any commercial keywords...

even if they don't include brand names.

We'll have it deleted then.

I don't think we should.

A firework festival isn't a commercial event.

What is it then? A charity event?

People gather at festivals and spend money.

The city of Inju is conducting business.

What about the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics?

Was it business conducted by the city of Pyeongchang and Korea?

We should've deleted the keywords then.

Are you comparing the Olympics to a firework festival?

Is it because one event isn't as big as the other?

Then that's discrimination.

Now, that's a leap.

Fine. There is a difference since one is only regional.

But if that's the case, we should've deleted all keywords...

related to festivals in other regions.

They were advertised in other media outlets.

This was only promoted due to our site.

So a TV advertisement can get you on the ranking,

but not when you advertise it through our search engine?

That's also discrimination.

We deleted all keywords that made it on the ranking...

after being advertised on our site.

If we let this one slide, that'll also be discrimination.

In 2014, the Fair Trade Commission stated...

that letting the keyword from...

what was advertised on a search engine...

can be considered as an unfair trade...

according to this.

Delete it right now.

Yes, ma'am.

I'll get back to work then.

Bae Ta Mi.

Do you really believe that we should not delete it?

No, I think it's fine to delete the keyword.

However, you'll delete too many keywords...

if I stop challenging your orders.

I hear you got into it with Ta Mi.

Is that what people call a discussion these days?

Did your mother-in-law...

tell you to delete the keyword?

I guess it's not good for Seoul...

to have neighboring cities that get noticed.

It was my order, Ms. Na.

I did it by the book.

Ga Gyeong, I'm not the villain, you know.

I'm not in your way.

How am I the villain when I'm actually on your team?

Helping the villain makes you one.

(Mother)

Ms. Song.

Give this to your mother.

I won't be home tonight.

- What is it? - She'll know what it is.

We met to discuss a movie that's coming out next month.

Mr. Oh wasn't pleased with the editing,

so we met up.

Enjoy your meeting.

Are you working late?

- Yes. - Mr. Jung's waiting.

Take my car.

I drove here.

Bye.

Jin Woo, is this okay?

She's not like that.

We're not like that.

An iced americano, right?

Thank you. Two, please.

How did your interview go?

I didn't pass.

Degrees issued outside of Seoul aren't welcome in Seoul.

Old fossils don't know talent when they see it.

I saw the presidential election page.

Unicon and Barro's both.

How were they?

Unicon's has a lot of varied info, so I don't know what I'm to see.

Barro's is clean and easy to take in at a glance,

which tells me they aren't prepared at all.

Spot on.

Isn't it better to look prepared than not?

It is.

But Barro shows the candidates' pledges in two clicks.

Unicon's takes three.

Trying to look prepared could turn away voters.

That needs fixing.

Do I fail all my interviews because I talk like this?

I don't know what fools want,

but I totally like it. It's my style.

One is for you. For your feedback.

Thank you.

Tonight, it's just beer instead of soju and beer?

Yes. I won't drink tonight.

Welcome. What do you want?

One portion of samgyeopsal.

We don't sell just one portion.

Oh, you don't?

Two portions is too much.

- Okay then. - Bye.

Hey.

Me?

You can join me if you want.

You can't order one portion over there but you can here.

I craved grilled meat for once because the weather was nice.

It is a good day to eat meat.

The breeze is nice too.

Shall I cook? You might get grease on your shirt.

It's fine. I need to get it dry-cleaned anyway.

It's a pretty shirt.

You have a good eye.

Did you live abroad?

How did you know?

You didn't ask personal questions.

By now, I usually get asked if I live nearby and where...

and how old I am.

Then they make rude comments on how I look young for my age.

That's Joseon for you.

But you said, "I love your shirt", and "I love this weather".

And you didn't know restaurants don't sell single portions.

You're quite sharp-eyed.

I moved back from Germany less than two weeks ago.

Oh, really?

How long were you there for?

For 10 years.

I was there to study piano.

I've never spoken to someone who majored in piano.

It's an honor.

Give me that. I'll do the cooking.

You can't grill meat with those piano-playing hands.

I don't have any friends here in Korea.

Sometimes, when I crave meat,

can I give you a call?

Are you asking for my number?

I'll take this so we both feel comfortable.

Of course you should. Thanks for today.

(Seo Myeong Ho, New Hanguk Party)

If you were away for 10 years, it's your first presidential election.

I voted in Germany as an overseas national.

That guy was behind in the polls.

Who will win?

He will.

(Seo Myeong Ho)

Guaranteeing new job openings for the youth...

is the basic solution to increasing the rate of marriages.

I believe that comment fixates the social convention...

that only married couples...

can have children.

That isn't something...

a divorced man like you should say.

What's wrong with divorce?

Is it illegal?

At the time of your divorce,

your ex-wife filed a lawsuit for divorce,

but then she dropped it.

You then settled with her out of court.

My private life is not part of this debate.

- I won't comment. - The cause for your divorce...

was your unfaithful attitude towards the marriage.

- Is that true? - Enough with the crude questions.

I'm being crude?

We're here to discuss if you qualify to be president.

Then let me ask you something.

Candidate Lee, when you were a public prosecutor,

you had an improper relationship with a fellow prosecutor,

or so we heard.

What are you talking about?

I'm also just discussing if you qualify to be president.

Answer.

Did you have an affair?

This is defamation.

Did you have an affair or not?

You seem to...

want to use my divorce to damage my reputation,

but I believe it's much better to live alone...

than to cheat on a spouse.

Am I wrong?

Gosh.

- This is great fun. - Using my personal history...

- to damage my reputation... - Is it really 2018?

Four keywords about Lee Wook Hyeon's affair.

At 8th, 10th, 11th, and 13th.

Social media's in uproar too.

Yay, we get to work overtime.

It's not worth watching.

I'm going home.

(Who is Lee Wook Hyeon's Mystery Woman?)

("Did you have an affair or not?")

The internet's all ablaze because of the candidates' debate.

All top-10 search keywords are about Lee Wook Hyeon's affair.

His mistress, his ex-wife, his prosecutor colleague.

Lee Wook Hyeon took them all.

He did, and he's still up there.

"Lee Wook Hyeon polygamy"?

Give me a moment.

I'll get a hair dryer.

(Lee Wook Hyeon affair)

(Boy group comeback, weather)

What's this?

(Wed-Thurs drama, fine dust, presidential election date)

(Boy group comeback, weather)

It's gone.

Wait, miss.

What happened?

We don't know either.

What should we do about the articles on the altered keywords?

Don't pick up!

Until further instructions,

don't take any incoming calls.

Ms. Bae!

What happened to the keywords?

Is it raining?

Ga Gyeong.

Keywords regarding adultery obviously counts as slander.

And we've always deleted those with no exceptions.

What are you talking about?

We're talking about the presidential election.

A presidential candidate is not an ordinary person.

Are you saying it's okay to violate their basic human rights?

So you stepped up and protected their human rights yourself?

It was brought up during a debate which everyone was watching live.

It's a public concern.

They will explain whether the accusation is true or not.

And if it's slander, the person who said it will get punished for it.

But Unicon has no right to interfere with that.

Why should a search engine protect a presidential candidate's rights?

The keywords are not yours to meddle with.

It belongs to the people who search it.

- According to our company rules... - That's not why you're doing this.

I know you were just pressured.

It seems like you're the one who's slandering me.

Ms. Song.

Assemblyman Joo Seung Tae from New Hanguk Party is here.

I always knew Unicon rooted for Lee Wook Hyeon.

But I didn't know you'd be so obvious about it.

Ms. Song Ga Gyeong, isn't your mother-in-law...

the chairwoman of KU Group?

You're making a very rude assumption.

That has nothing to do with this.

Unicon was always famous...

for manipulating real-time keywords.

You really should stop being a slave for your mother-in-law.

Search engines have the right to practice voluntary restraints.

If a keyword shows signs of slander, we decide to...

This is the presidential election!

Are you kidding me?

Is it okay to break the rules during the presidential election?

What?

Based on our company rules,

we've always deleted keywords regarding an individual's adultery.

And it doesn't state we mustn't do so during a presidential election.

We've always been deleting keywords regarding people's adultery.

But you want us to leave it because he's a presidential candidate?

Wouldn't that be more close to manipulation?

You violated...

our people's right to know.

It's been ages since adultery became legal.

So how does that fall under anyone's right to know?

If keywords regarding Seo Myeong Ho and his mistress came up,

we would've done the same thing and deleted them.

Unicon does not manipulate real-time keywords.

Do you understand?

I will definitely call this into question...

once Candidate Seo gets elected as president.

Your coffee tastes very bad.

What are you actually thinking?

Do you think we should've deleted the keywords or not?

Of course, you shouldn't have deleted them.

Seo Myeong Ho will get elected as president.

Be prepared to deal with this.

It's just a couple keywords.

Why are they causing a fuss?

They pretend like they're so democratic...

every time they try to take political revenge.

We won't be able to avoid the hearing.

Ga Gyeong.

If I order you to die, would you do that as well?

I clearly told you that it'll be dangerous.

If you did it regardless, does that mean you're incompetent?

Pick someone to attend the hearing.

I'll make sure you and In Gyeong don't receive a summons.

- I'll just go myself. - Ga Gyeong.

Do you think it's you that I'm trying to protect?

Don't be so full of yourself.

The canvas is getting damp. Hey, go home...

before it starts raining.

Seo Myeong Ho of the New Hanguk Party...

is currently taking the lead with 47.3 percent.

Currently, 51.8 percent of the votes have been counted.

And it's highly possible that Seo Myeong Ho might get elected.

- Next, let's move onto... - The results will be out soon!

Do you have the image ready to congratulate Seo Myeong Ho's win?

Yes, it's ready.

Do you have all the Internet articles ready?

Keep checking the real-time keywords.

- Seo Myeong Ho's win is confirmed. - Start uploading.

Now, we just have to check the forecasting system.

Seo Myeong Ho of the New Hanguk Party...

got elected as president.

(Seo Myeong Ho wins the election, Total percentage of votes: 43.7)

(The newly elected president, Seo Myeong Ho)

This is so different from the public opinion poll.

- My gosh. - It's different from the exit poll.

A bet is still a bet. You all owe me 50 dollars.

Oh, right. 50 dollars.

- My gosh. - Hurry.

Thank you.

- Thank you. - My gosh.

Thank you. I hit the jackpot.

But why did you bet on Seo Myeong Ho?

Because that's what Director Bae predicted.

On what basis?

The keywords tell you everything.

What does that mean?

People searched Lee Wook Hyeon's name a lot more...

up until a month prior to the election.

But from two weeks ago, people started searching...

Seo Myeong Ho's name a lot more for no specific reason.

Really?

Then why did the public opinion poll come out that way?

Maybe they felt embarrassed to say they'll vote for Seo Myeong Ho.

Meanwhile, they started to search...

the person they actually wanted to vote for on the search engine.

People become...

very honest when they're in front of the search engine.

"I swear..."

"that I will abide by the Constitution,"

"protect my country,"

"and do my best to preserve our country's peace..."

"and the freedom of our people..."

How about another round?

Just go home. You're no match for me.

What?

Hey, hey!

I haven't lost in so long that it's hard to accept it.

Excuse me.

How about another round?

Maybe next time. You won't be able to beat me today anyway.

If I can't beat you today, will I be able to beat you tomorrow?

You just gave me hope.

What can I do to win?

Try harder.

[VIU Ver] tvN E01 'Search: WWW' "This is the Internet" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

(Ggongi Arcade)

Have you been waiting for me?

I told you to try harder, and you did.

It's been 30 minutes.

- Why did you wait for me? - I liked your attitude.

The second blow of the Heihachi Kick...

doesn't have a delay that's longer than when the first one is blocked.

The move I made...

- on our second game wasn't... - You were trying to corner me.

- Exactly! - I understand your intention,

but botching the kick will cost you the game.

It's difficult to follow it up with a blast.

Heihachi's normally done for if he can't land the blast.

Yes.

So I played poorly while you didn't.

Yes, which makes me the better player.

I haven't seen you around though.

Did you usually play at the arcade in Yeongdeungpo?

Yes, but this is the only one I can be at now.

I only came to watch but ended up playing a game.

I'm glad you did.

I liked the challenge for a change.

There's a look you get after victory.

- Did you know that? - What is it?

You only won a game of Tekken,

but you look like you're on top of the world.

You look full of yourself.

I was curious as to how you'd look after losing,

so I entered my coin.

So you got your wish.

How did I look after losing?

You looked at me.

You only look at the people you have lost to.

So what do you do for a living?

I have something to ask.

Listen to this.

A woman you have loved for a thousand years...

is locked up in a castle.

Only one enemy stands.

If you win this final battle,

you will be able to save her.

However,

it won't be an easy one.

There will be flashy skills and magic flying all over the place.

Would this music fit in with the scene?

Do you compose film scores?

Is it too romantic for a battle scene?

You loved her for a thousand years.

It's not about how you fight...

but with what mind you fight that's more important.

I like it.

I like it too.

I'm 38, not a reckless 28-year-old.

- Hello. - Hi.

Ms. Bae, I love your scarf.

Thanks.

I want the report on my desk by 11am...

and make sure you all gather for the meeting at 1pm.

You idiot.

Ms. Bae.

Hi, what's up?

Ms. Song is asking for you.

Why should I attend the hearing?

You're the director who manages the Search Department.

Besides, this was my call.

Why would you decide who attends the hearing?

Doesn't the congress decide?

You attend after you're summoned.

They're asking for the person that they can summon.

Does no one follow the rules?

Do I really have to attend the hearing?

What do you think, Director Song?

Are you trying to appeal to my conscience?

I asked a stupid question.

You're demanding someone to receive the summons.

Then I'll ask the CEO.

Is this a suggestion or an order?

What happens if I refuse?

Will I get fired?

We'll be put at a disadvantage if Ms. Song attends the hearing.

The media will want to bring KU Group into the mix.

Are you sure they're not involved?

Whether they are or not, is that important?

Not getting herself involved...

is the best way Ms. Song can serve our company.

This decision is about the company,

and I have the right to make the decision.

You should also be responsible.

But you want me to take the blame.

I won't do it.

Director Bae. It's an order.

Not a suggestion.

I thought I worked hard for this company.

It looks like you're throwing me under the bus.

When it's a battle we must win,

we don't send out someone we can do without.

How can we win when the hearing is about losing?

Do just one thing.

Make sure our corruption doesn't show up on our search ranking.

If it all works out, it might win you a promotion.

Will that be enough?

Do I get paid?

People usually pay off the person who takes the fall and does time.

Bong Gi.

Yes?

Are you just?

I do seek justice and try to be just.

I used to be a reporter, you know.

- Bong Gi. - Yes?

What is justice?

Justice is something just...

that can't exactly be defined.

When there's evil and a lesser evil,

is it just or unjust to choose the lesser evil?

That's just life.

- Bong Gi. - Yes, I'm listening.

Flip the meat. It's burning.

Ms. Bae, you need to get more drunk.

You're only halfway drunk...

and will remember all the nonsense you said just now.

No. When I get drunk...

I can't sacrifice you too.

You know...

I'll appear on TV soon.

What? Really?

What color lipstick should I wear?

I want to look really fierce.

Director Bae Ta Mi.

You took an oath meaning perjury incurs a punishment.

Let me ask you one more time.

Please give me an honest answer.

Did you or did you not manipulate the real-time keywords?

(Witness, Bae Ta Mi)

At Unicon, the real-time keyword ranking...

is fabricated.

Do you admit to that?

The real-time keywords you see...

are not true.

The only truth is behind the fingers of the people behind keyboards...

who wish to search something.

During my 10 years at the Search Headquarters,

do you know what words I deleted the most?

"Sex".

"Pornography".

"PG19".

"Exhibitionism".

Pornographic sites.

Most keywords involved intercourse.

We self-regulate and delete such words.

Because they're inappropriate for a search engine that...

the whole nation has access to.

If deleting words for the public interest is fabricating,

then yes, we fabricate the keywords.

Witness. You're digressing.

"Joo Seung Tae underage prostitution".

If such a phrase shows up, it could be considered slander,

so we're allowed to delete it.

If it's untrue, that is.

What does that have to do with Unicon's keyword fabrication...

Unfortunately, though, the underage prostitution scandal...

is true.

I happened to come across circumstantial evidence that...

you attempted such a trashy thing.

What are you talking about?

The ID joost2005 is yours, isn't it?

11 years ago, when you were...

head of a borough, you created this ID with an email address.

It's our Unicon email address. Thank you.

While cracking down on illegal sponsor sites...

that were set up on our server,

I came across information that suggests...

Assemblyman Joo attempted to solicit a minor.

How dare you try to change the subject?

Are you out of your mind?

Assemblyman Joo Seung Tae who came by our office...

will question you at the hearing.

I only did the research that my job entitles me to do.

Whether this is actually Assemblyman Joo's ID or not,

the authorities can find out if they put in a request.

Take it down. Take it down now.

I'm being set up! This is not true!

I hope it's not true, Assemblyman Joo.

(Real-time ranking: Joo Seung Tae, underage prostitution)

The real-time keyword ranking has changed.

Did you see that?

This, sir, is the Internet.

How did you find out about Assemblyman Joo's scandal?

Did someone tip you off?

How much do you know? Say something.

Who is behind all this?

- How much do you know? - Is there more?

- Any comments? - What's your opinion?

Did you see that?

This, sir, is the Internet.

We have a true psycho on our hands.

Yes. Did you decide to switch stories?

That's fine. See you another time.

Bye.

You psycho.

- Who was it? - How much do you know?

You're in the wrong car.

I'm asking for help. I'll make it up to you.

Can you please just drive?

Did you just get into a random car?

I caused a ruckus and walked out looking cool.

I couldn't get into a taxi, could I?

Who are you? Why do you look familiar?

We met at the Internet self-regulatory policy meeting.

Barro.

I get the situation you're in, but isn't it a bit weird...

to get in your competitor's car?

Yes, it's weird.

But this is the least weird thing that I did today.

What the... Have they lost their minds?

She's still not picking up?

The receiver's phone is turned off.

Her phone's off.

That psycho.

Does she even know what she's done?

She just did what she was told to do.

She got rid of the real-time keywords...

regarding our company's corruption.

We were already let off the hook with a lot of things.

I can't believe she just ruined it.

What did your mother-in-law say?

She asked who that crazy witch is.

How could I do something like this with a sane mind?

I guess you don't really think about the consequences.

I can't even be sure if I'll still be alive tomorrow.

So why bother?

Is that what went through your mind when you manipulated the keywords?

Who gave you the orders to delete them?

KU Group? Or Candidate Lee Wook Hyeon?

- I'll get off now. - We're on Gangbyeon Expressway.

Did you really not check Joo Seung Tae's personal data...

to see if he solicited a minor?

Even if I did,

is that more important than the fact that he actually did it?

I personally think it's important.

But people don't think that way.

So now that you replaced your company's...

keyword manipulation issue with underage prostitution,

does that make you feel just?

Why do I need to be just?

Because a hearing is held based on the National Assembly law,

and you have no right to look down on the law.

Does that only apply to me?

Shouldn't that apply to everyone?

So you think you're a victim?

Whatever the case, don't think of yourself as a hero...

when you can't even be honest about your company's problems.

You didn't do anything right.

I never asked for your advice, so I won't thank you for that.

But thanks for the ride.

I don't mind getting off on the expressway. Please stop the car.

My gosh.

(Managing Director Song Ga Gyeong)

(Out of service area)

My gosh, this is crazy.

What am I going to do now?

(Joo Seung Tae Suspected of Having Solicited Sex from a Minor)

(Joo Seung Tae Suspected of Having Solicited Sex from a Minor)

Good work.

What's making you fight so passionately?

Are you going to enter the Olympics?

When is jiu jitsu...

going to get picked as an Olympic sport?

I think I'll really be able to win a medal.

Even if it does,

you'll be too old to participate.

But there are no age limits to judo.

You should go ahead and challenge your dream.

I gave up on judo a long time ago.

Did you come up with any new dreams?

I did.

My dream is to become a rich woman who's also a great fighter.

You want to fight well and be rich at the same time?

In order to beat up whomever I want...

and be able to pay for their injuries, I need to be rich.

My gosh.

Don't come here tomorrow. Just get some rest.

If I rest, it just aches more.

- Your shoulders? - Yes.

Based on the testimony made by Director Bae Ta Mi,

who attended the hearing regarding Unicon's keyword manipulation,

suspicions of Assemblyman Joo's attempt to buy sex from minors...

are constantly being brought up.

Joo Seung Tae, that piece of trash.

I never really liked that jerk.

Did he seriously have nothing better to do?

Why would he want to buy sex from minors?

Gosh, he deserves to get beaten to death.

Bae Ta Mi or whatever her name is... She did something great.

If it weren't for her, no one would've known.

He uploaded posts on an illegal sex trafficking site...

What a clever move, Bae Ta Mi.

And she presented them as evidence...

Do you sell pesticides by any chance?

No.

Why not? That's also a drug.

- Do you sell charcoal briquettes? - Pardon?

No.

You are really making things so difficult.

This country has the highest suicide rate among OECD members,

and I will contribute to that.

My gosh, this is so scary.

(Real-time keywords, 1: Joo Seung Tae, Bae Ta Mi)

(8: Bae Ta Mi)

Now is the best time for Earth to get destroyed.

Going up.

My gosh.

Ms. Bae.

Yes. What is it?

Your lipstick. You looked really fierce.

You were great. I mean it.

You were worth the meat. Thanks.

Ms. Song though. She's...

- She wants to see you. - You should've said no.

What?

No. So... What do you have to do today?

The Gaming Department needs a monitor for a meeting.

Then tell Ms. Song that...

the Gaming Department needed a monitor for a meeting and I went.

- What? - I'll go instead.

I'm good at games. Like Tekken.

Just as important as the character's look is...

its personality and charm.

The extra information is on page seven.

Next on the agenda is the issue you pointed out.

The music.

I'll play it first and then take questions.

Should you be here?

I really want to monitor this. Isn't it good to have a friend?

I watched yesterday.

You look good on TV.

This music.

Listen carefully and give feedback.

I know this tune. Where did I hear it?

How could you have heard it? The game's yet to be released.

No. I heard it before.

Where did I hear it?

Where are you going? I called you about the music.

Well, right now I must...

I'm Park Morgan, CEO of Millim Sound.

The music you just heard is for the Forest of Fire map.

The music replaced my explanation, and I heard the opinions vary.

It would be quicker to take questions.

I'm Son Hyun Joon, Director of the Gaming Department.

Forest of Fire is where the player fights the boss mob.

We think the music's too romantic for that setting.

Why not follow industry standard and go with electronic sounds?

The sound effects are electronic and that would clash.

Even so, this score is too sentimental to pair with...

a fighting sequence.

In this map, the male character...

fights to save a woman locked in a castle.

He loved her for a thousand years.

She's not just a one-night stand.

I thought the purpose of the fight is more important.

It's not about how you fight...

but with what mind you fight.

He loved her for a thousand years.

It's not about how you fight...

but with what mind you fight that's more important.

When fighting a boss mob, users use all the skills they possess.

Each time they do, a flashy sound effect will play.

If the background music were to be fast as well,

that would be sound pollution.

What do you think, Ms. Bae?

Me?

He's handsome.

The character, I mean. He's well-designed.

How about a 10-minute break?

Sure.

Hey, Bong Gi.

I'm at the Gaming Department.

I don't know why I'm here either.

I'll check as soon as I can. Bye.

I'm crazy. Wake up, Bae Ta Mi.

You left the men's room.

Was there anything noteworthy?

No. I went in by mistake...

Oh, no.

You have a habit of kissing whenever we meet.

Darn it.

You should've told me you work with Unicon.

I don't date industry people...

It was smudged.

How old are you?

I'm not a minor.

(Search: WWW)

What are you?

I'm just a guy you kissed.

You're cute.

Then you should have me.

Look at you.

I'm not proud of tricking and conniving into first place.

But then, I don't want to be second.

I'm asking if you don't want to work at Barro.

I want to work at Unicon.

- Director Bae Ta Mi... - That place is my life.

is to be fired.

I once adored you and wanted to be like you.

Then you should've become like me.

I'll leave voluntarily.

I'll work at Barro.
