ALL CHARACTERS, ORGANIZATIONS, PLACES AND EVENTS ARE FICTIONAL

Will you announce your candidacy

for the presidential election?

-Please answer the question. -Tell us, sir.

I will be

running for President.

I guess it's too hard to let go of power once you obtain it.

I'm not sure.

Perhaps he's just beginning to recognize his lust for power

and his competitiveness.

You said

that one needs

a story, charisma, and luck to be elected President.

So?

President Park.

The bombing has turned the powerless Minister of Environment

into the most powerful man in Korea.

He even recovered from the assassination attempt

and returned to the Blue House.

Do you think President Park has everything it takes as well?

Do you still think Minister Oh has a better chance of winning?

Take a guess.

Woo Sin-young.

If you guess correctly,

I'll give you the evening news

in the upcoming reshuffle scheduled for May.

President Park is here, sir.

Thank you

for handling government administration during my absence.

I simply did

my duty, sir.

But I'm curious to find out

who will be sitting here

in 30 days.

OH YEONG-SEOK, PARK MU-JIN, YUN CHAN-GYEONG, KANG SANG-GU

Now that President Park has announced his candidacy,

the polls will fluctuate dramatically.

His approval ratings will go up even more, right?

The people wanted him to enter the presidential race.

The people want a leader who has the will for power.

But they do not trust a politician with a lust for power.

He announced his candidacy while he is still in office.

What will the people think of him?

Then should that be the gist of our official statement?

Strongly condemning President Park's lust for power.

No, let's be graceful.

There are plenty of others

who would criticize him in such a crude manner.

Who? Me?

Why would President Park make me anxious?

If he joins the majority party, he will most likely be nominated.

Isn't that why you dyed your hair, sir?

Not to be outdone by his looks.

Ms. Jang.

Who is the most fickle-minded person on the entire planet?

You...

are definitely not, of course.

The answer is, the Korean voters.

Park Mu-jin is no longer the Acting President of this country.

He is just a rookie politician now.

Those who applauded him for being

a breath of fresh air when he was an amateur

will criticize his lack of experience

and point fingers at him now.

Right, people are cruel.

The presidential election is an opportunity for the powerless

to finally gain the upper hand after four years of waiting.

We should let them enjoy it a little, don't you think?

Anyway, will President Park

really be nominated by...

I mean, will he really join the party?

When will you join a party, sir?

If you consider the nomination process, the sooner the better.

Must I

join a party?

Well...

There has been

no independent candidate who was elected President.

It's all about team power.

The majority party's team power is already nonexistent

because of the bombing.

But they still have a solid group of supporters who will vote for them.

Does the idea of joining a political party

still make you uncomfortable, sir?

I'm already...

a politician, and no one can deny that, Secretary Cha.

Then why...

The battle against the bombers will continue for a while

even after the next administration takes office.

Transparent investigations and political decisions

that strictly abide by the law

will be required every moment.

If this process

is tainted by partisanship and a faction war,

it will be very unfortunate

for the people as well as for the government.

I'm sorry.

Secretary Cha,

you probably wanted to recreate the government with the majority party.

It will be

a major handicap for you during the election, sir.

But...

let's give it a shot.

Since you're right.

I don't agree with you.

I don't understand why you're against this, sir.

What suits President Park

is returning to academia after completing his 60-day term.

That's all he is here to do.

Do you think he is unqualified to be the next president?

I thought you cherished and trusted him more than anybody else.

Was I wrong, sir?

Sir!

President Park...

isn't the one I can't trust.

It's the people of this country.

Have you

already forgotten?

President Yang

dedicated his whole life to the betterment of this country,

and yet people mocked his good intentions...

And then he ended up...

Have you forgotten?

Have you?

This country...

does not deserve a good president.

-Sir. -The people of this country

chose Minister Oh, a man who wants to wield power as he pleases.

You saw his approval ratings.

In the end, President Park...

won't be chosen by the people.

And you

will ultimately

fail.

Just like me.

What if he gets chosen?

If the people choose President Park,

please do as I wish.

Park Mu-jin, an independent candidate and a rookie politician,

really needs a seasoned political aide like you, sir.

Someone whom the people can trust and support.

If he passes Minister Oh in the polls,

will you join his campaign?

DAY 35: PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE EPISODE 13

I know...

this hasn't been easy for you.

The Blue House Security Team permitted this visit.

You can speak freely.

Tae-ik, Myung Hae-joon's real killer,

fled the scene after taking a shot at President Park

and was killed.

You're the only one left

who had contact with Tae-ik and the bombers.

I know that you confessed

to Myung Hae-joon's murder because of your son, Jae-min.

Tell me anything you have on Tae-ik and the bombers.

So that I can help you.

Let's say that you're right,

and they blackmailed me by holding Jae-min hostage.

Do you think I would tell you a thing?

My boy...

could die.

I will...

save Jae-min.

I promise you.

It's the only way to clear your name as Myung Hae-joon's killer.

First, bring Jae-min home safely.

Then,

we'll talk about my situation.

RESTRICTED AREA

Ji-won, where are we on Jae-min?

Still?

May I eat this?

Hey. What's wrong. Hey!

Kid, what's wrong?

Hey!

Starting today,

your security team will be cut down to make you seem more approachable.

To your posts.

Mr. President, are you all right?

We want to increase your contact with the people as much as possible.

That's why a cultural event

was chosen as your first outing as a presidential candidate.

We can subtly show the people how much you've recovered.

Also, a political event

might be seen as premature campaigning.

When shaking someone's hand, make sure your grip is slightly stronger.

Hold their gaze

for about two seconds.

If you want to shake your arm, keep it between three to five times.

There's the advanced course of a two-handed handshake,

but we'll practice that some other time. It's simple.

Think of it as winning over a vote

every time you shake a person's hand.

Now that you've announced your candidacy,

you are a presidential candidate to whom every single vote

is very precious.

I hold their gaze

for two seconds, correct?

That's right.

Two seconds.

CELEBRATING DIRECTOR NOH'S INTERNATIONAL AWARD

This is Director Noh Ju-yeong. He is President Park Mu-jin.

Congratulations on your award.

This is a strange way to promote a movie.

Yes.

We'll do our best to make sure the movie is a success.

The poster must be in the photo.

Could you two shake hands?

-Congratulations. -Thank you.

Mr. President,

this is your first official outing since announcing your candidacy.

Are you here to congratulate her on winning the award

or to send a political message?

What have you thought in the past

about Director Noh's work?

If you've taken all your photos, we should wrap this up.

To everyone here, time is money...

I mean, votes.

"A freedom that's above all taboos."

Ever since Director Noh's debut movie,

this has been a constant theme,

and it was quite memorable

in this movie as well.

Did I get your message right, Director Noh?

Director Noh,

what are your thoughts on that? Do you agree?

I'm not sure.

Is that what my movies say?

So what does the message "A freedom that's above all taboos",

something that you've been expressing continuously over the past 20 years,

mean to you personally?

Love.

It's the freedom to love.

She is the person I love.

-What? -Seriously?

Above all taboos.

Freely.

THE REVEAL THAT SHOCKED EVERYONE

ACTING PRESIDENT PARK MU-JIN CAN'T HIDE HIS SHOCK

THE COUPLE OF THE CENTURY! PRESIDENT PARK SHOCKED

COURAGEOUSLY COMING OUT

Was there really no heads up before she made this huge announcement?

This is his first outing since his announcement.

Do you think they'll believe me?

Look at President Park's expression.

If this is an act, he deserves an Oscar.

Is it because she's a movie director?

Her life is like a movie.

Hold on. Why did she have to take the spotlight away from President Park?

How irritating.

But he's still the scene-stealer.

The Discrimination Act?

It's the bill that the UN Committee on Social Rights

has been pressing us to pass.

We'll send a document stating how we reviewed the matter

and leave it at that for now.

We'll only send a report saying we reviewed it?

Are you saying we should just end it as a formality?

We have a good excuse to give to the UN.

This is good.

Since the election is coming up, we'll defer it to the next administration.

It's the Discrimination Act, sir.

It's the bill that has been a burden

to every administration.

That's why the UN has been urging us for the past ten years.

The UN will be making its evaluation on Korea

sometime in the second half of this year.

-Ms. Jeong. -Yes, Mr. President?

Contact MOLEG.

Tell them to prepare a bill for the Discrimination Act.

You don't mean

you plan to enact the Discrimination Act, do you?

At this moment in time?

I don't think it's a good idea, sir.

Being so close to the presidential election--

Chief An,

what exactly is stipulated in the Discrimination Act?

No one may be discriminated against or harassed

based on ethnic origin,

educational background, age, disability, nationality,

place of birth, sexual orientation, and the like.

Isn't that a basic equal right

that any and all citizens of this nation

should be given?

What else must I consider?

I just can't understand him.

He announced his candidacy.

He should be focusing on his campaign,

not this Discrimination Act.

How can he be so reckless?

He doesn't know

what the Discrimination Act means in the Korean society yet.

Tell me what this means.

COURAGEOUSLY COMING OUT

"Acting President Park supports same-sex relationships."

Is that what it is?

This is his first political message that he's conveying

as a presidential candidate.

Mr. Min, how many times must I tell you this?

This was completely expected.

Look at President Park's face. Look at his eyes.

You can tell he's flustered.

Is this the expression of someone delivering a message?

Well, I guess you're right.

He does look quite shocked and flustered.

Right? What did I tell you?

Then...

is he against same-sex relationships?

He's against same-sex marriage as well.

Why are you being so unreasonable today, Mr. Oh?

Same-sex relationships and marriage

isn't something you can easily state your opinion about.

But you said so yourself.

President Park seems quite flustered and shocked.

Maybe his hatred toward same-sex relationships came through.

No, President Park isn't like that at all.

He has great understanding when it comes to minorities' civil rights

and their right to pursue happiness.

That's why he's pushing the Discrimination Act...

The Discrimination Act?

Hold on.

That means he supports

same-sex relationships.

I'm right, aren't I?

You must recant the Discrimination Act.

Let the next administration handle it.

It's impossible to legislate it

and have it passed during your current term.

If I get the bill rolling,

someone will finish it.

However, if I don't start it,

no one can get this passed

before UN's assessment this year.

-Sir-- -Here.

The US' Civil Rights Act,

the UK's Equality Act,

and Germany's Equal Treatment Act.

Australia and Canada also have an act

that promote civil rights and prohibit discrimination.

Even Japan has an act that is similar to these.

Are you saying that Korea's civil rights and democracy

are inferior to theirs?

The fact that the UN has been advising us

to legislate this act for the past ten years

also indicates

that it will take more than ten years

for this law to be accepted by Koreans.

Haven't you thought that perhaps there was a reason behind the stall?

Sir.

I think I've made a huge mistake.

What is it?

DISCRIMINATION ACT TO BE PASSED

The media is saying

that Director Noh coming out at the celebratory event

was in fact a political campaign of yours

to convey your support for same-sex relationships.

The comments on social media and posts online

are saying that you fully support same-sex relationships.

People are already stating their opinions about you--

The press must have thought the story was worth it.

At your first outing as a candidate,

Director Noh came out about her sexual orientation.

And then you announced

you'd pass the Discrimination Act to the senior aides.

Just because

the Discrimination Act stipulates that

no one may be discriminated against due to their sexuality or sexual orientation,

the people believe

that the law supports...

No, that it promotes and encourages same-sex relationships.

That is the society we live in.

Now do you realize

why the act was never legislated

even though UN urged us to for ten years?

I ask Acting President Park

to recant his decision to legislate the Discrimination Act.

As the Minister of National Defense,

I can't approve same-sex relationships.

However,

I do not oppose it either.

-What? -What's he saying?

One's love for another isn't something

that the government or other people can approve or oppose.

MINISTER OH YEONG-SEOK RELEASES STATEMENT

However, in Korea,

those who believe a family with a mother and father to be customary

and procreation to be the providence of God

exceed those who don't.

Minister Oh knows how to play the game.

He used the word "customary"

to target the Confucianists

and mentioned "God"

to target religious groups.

He made President Park the common enemy

while wearing that just and virtuous mask.

Hampering the unity of people...

Can you and President Park

take him on?

With the people of this nation...

Cha Yeong-jin speaking.

I will fight against it.

Yes.

Sure thing.

They are also people of this nation.

MINISTER OH YEONG-SEOK RELEASES STATEMENT

Acting President Park

acted rashly, only factoring in his personal preference and opinions,

in deciding to legislate an act that goes against the views of the people.

Hampering the unity of people...

The Confucianists and religious groups against this act

are gathering to write a petition

that demands your early resignation.

I will fight this to the end along with all of you.

Religious groups

have the money and solidarity to pull this off.

No politician has won against them.

If the fight prolongs,

you'll be the only one getting hurt.

This could severely damage your standing

in the first poll

since your candidacy announcement.

-But Mr. Cha-- -Sir.

You are now a presidential candidate.

The polls are everything.

I guess reporters these days don't care about fact checking.

Give me a second.

Connecting the Discrimination Act

with Director Noh's coming out to say President Park

supports same-sex relationships

-is a bit too much. -I allowed it.

Boss?

MINISTER OH YEONG-SEOK RELEASES STATEMENT

Wait...

Is it because of Minister Oh?

No, it was to help our newsroom.

What are you talking about?

Whether it's President Park, Minister Oh, or Mayor Kang

is none of my concern.

We just need to show that we still have the power to shake up this game.

-Sir-- -What else do we have left to go on?

Personal media has taken over,

and we can't even bring in advertisements.

What can we actually do?

Please take a look at the kid.

This way, sir.

This way.

What did he eat?

He had a cream bun with milk.

I need 0.3mg of epinephrine. Now!

Yes, doctor.

What's wrong with him?

Is he going to live? Tell me.

Anaphylaxis... In layman's terms, he's having an allergic reaction.

Weren't you aware of his allergies?

He suffers from severe allergies.

He might go into respiratory distress

if he eats certain kinds of dairy products or bread.

Sir, are you really his father?

REQUESTING COOPERATION

PLEASE CONTACT THE NUMBER BELOW IF YOU SPOT THIS CHILD

Yes, thank you.

Na-gyeong, they found Jae-min.

What? How?

Jae-min's allergic to dairy products and flour, remember?

So I sent his photo and details regarding his allergies

to every emergency care center.

That's smart of you.

You know, I've been a pretty decent guy for some time now.

Then should I have left the boy to die?

NIS hasn't been all over our asses

because we have the boy.

Don't worry, Mr. Kim.

I never make mistakes.

Where's my mommy?

I'm sick,

but my mommy didn't come?

Not even my dad?

It's why I ate the cream bun.

You ate it on purpose?

Which way is the ER?

He's this way.

He was here.

Did he run, knowing we were coming?

He couldn't have gotten far.

HYUNSUNG HOSPITAL

Na-gyeong, what is it?

It's Tae-ik.

Tae-ik is alive.

But he was gunned down.

-He died-- -No.

It was him. I'm sure of it.

Jae-min.

You're Jae-min, right?

Are you all right?

He must've let Jae-min go while making his escape. Thank God.

Let's go home now.

Jae-min?

Mommy!

Oh, my poor baby.

Are you all right?

My baby.

Now that we've found him,

Han-mo will be able to come out as well.

Yes, he should.

I wonder why he left Jae-min behind.

What could've changed his mind?

Are you sure

you saw Tae-ik earlier?

I should check.

I'll start with the corpse that supposedly belongs to him.

The front of his body,

especially his face, was damaged quite severely.

I'm not sure if he'll be recognizable.

His ear.

He doesn't have a cauliflower ear.

This isn't Tae-ik's body.

Tae-ik is still alive.

Ji-won,

we should start over, starting with identifying Tae-ik.

You said

this physical deformity occurs to wrestlers or judo athletes.

I'll start with a list of known athletes

around his age.

Yes, I checked.

The Director of National Crisis Management Center

when OP 5015-18 was drawn up...

Who was it?

I'm sorry to have kept you waiting.

June 20, 2018,

when the OP 5015-18 file was finalized

and demonstrated in front of President Yang,

you were a member of the National Security Council.

Am I correct?

Is my diligence a problem now?

You learned

the contents of that top secret file,

and now you're the only person alive who has seen the contents of that file.

Why have you remained silent?

The National Assembly Building was bombed in the same manner as the simulation.

Why didn't you tell us about the file?

Are you accusing me of being an accomplice?

The President's Security Team

only investigates the leakage of classified information

and violation of security regulations.

Mr. Kang.

Would you have been able to say something?

If you were the only survivor that knew the contents of the file,

could you tell people that you had seen it before?

Knowing very well what you kind of suspicions you'd draw upon yourself?

I only saw it being demonstrated.

I didn't share it with anyone.

I didn't have access to the file.

While this was an informal interrogation, this is the procedure.

Thank you for complying with the regulations.

Then...

Are you saying General Eun

is an accomplice?

He denies leaking the information,

and it's true that he didn't have access to the file.

The important thing is to find solid evidence about the relationship

between Minister Oh, the mole, and the bomber.

Can't we take Agent Han's internal investigation

to the police and prosecution

for an open investigation?

We're dealing with Minister Oh.

He's the most favored presidential candidate.

BEHIND THE BOMBING? OH YEONG-SEOK

If we accuse him of working with the bomber with no solid evidence

and request an investigation,

it could cause a backlash.

Backlash?

I believe he will start a rumor that you slandered

the miraculous survivor Oh Yeong-seok

and abused your authority

to get rid of your strongest opponent.

Is it...

because I've announced...

that I'll be running for President?

Drink this.

Thanks.

Honey.

You haven't explained

or given me any excuses yet.

Shouldn't you say something to me by today?

I was so worried you'd run for President.

How could you do this when you know that?

You could have given me a heads-up.

How could you make me find out through the news?

You...

would have been against it.

I was worried I'd reconsider it because of that.

Do you

feel okay?

The coffee is good.

GONG DU-PAL

HWANG DU-SIK

I checked former athletes...

that are around Tae-ik's age in Korea,

but I didn't find a match.

LEE JUN-HYEON

Lighten up.

I said I didn't find a match in Korea,

not in the entire world.

HOSHINO KEI

Hoshino Kei. He's a Japanese mixed martial arts fighter.

Hoshino Kei? Is he Japanese?

It makes sense if he's a foreigner.

That's why he didn't show up on the system

of the police or NIS.

He was naturalized as a Japanese citizen in 2017.

He was a Korean citizen before that.

His name is Lee Gyeong-pyo, born in 1982.

He was a gold medalist on the national judo team.

HOSHINO KEI

LEE GYEONG-PYO

Are you sure it's the same guy?

Because they look different?

He had reconstructive surgery for face injuries in Japan.

He's a medalist with the national team.

It doesn't make sense that he would be naturalized in Japan.

Is there anything else that stands out in Tae-ik's background?

Do you remember this?

The Woori World fire in 2016.

Among the children that died in the fire were Tae-ik's...

I mean, Lee Gyeong-pyo's twin sons were among them.

Is that why he became a Japanese citizen?

Because he hated Korea.

It's starting to make sense now.

Because of a personal incident, Tae-ik, who had been merciless,

let Jae-min go.

His name isn't Tae-ik.

It's Lee Gyeong-pyo.

We know his name now.

Then who in the world is Tae-ik?

The dying message Myung Hae-joon left...

TAE-IK

It's one or the other.

We either read it wrong,

or Tae-ik was never a person's name to begin with.

Check the handwriting again.

Compare it to Myung Hae-joon's written confession.

Okay, depending on what you do.

We learned Lee Gyeong-pyo's name,

and Jae-min is safely with his family now.

You should get a good night's sleep

so that you can tell me what to do or give me orders tomorrow.

Good night.

YEOMINGWAN 1, 2, 3

Secretary Lee isn't here.

I wondered if he had the results for the poll.

It's the first one since President Park's announcement for candidacy,

so I couldn't just sit around and wait.

The first poll results are the most important, right?

Yes.

since it will have a huge influence over the swing votes.

-See you. -Bye.

Secretary Jeong.

I...

thought...

about us.

Are the poll results out?

The Discrimination Act yesterday...

Did it impact...

Do you two have something serious to discuss?

Go ahead. I'll give you some privacy.

Have we received the results of the polls?

-The President is asking. -Leave.

We have the results of the polls.

It's obvious.

I heard the first poll results after announcing one's candidacy is important.

I mean,

when you take the mock college exam during sophomore year,

you can tell who will go to which university.

Let's see.

But who cares about mock exams?

The real exam is what matters.

The polls aren't important whether it's the first or tenth.

You have to come in first in the actual election.

GENERAL ELECTION POLLS

OH YEONG-SEOK, PARK MU-JIN, YUN CHAN-GYEONG, KANG SANG-GU

Is that why you came running as soon as the poll results were out?

You want to team up for the election?

It's about time for the presidential elections to change.

How long are we going to continue using malicious propaganda

and make our people hate politics?

There aren't any reporters,

but you're talking like a school principal again.

Let's turn the tables on this election.

Let's get rid of one of the knights from the chess board.

I'm going to stop...

President Park from running for president.

I'm here about the Discrimination Act.

Are you opposed to it too?

I'm for it.

If you propose the bill and take it to the National Assembly,

I'll make sure

it passes the vote.

Why? Can't you trust me?

I reviewed it.

To enact a new legislation,

we must draw up a bill, give notice,

have the Legislative Office evaluate it, and the Cabinet review it.

Each step of the process takes 20 to 60 days.

That's impossible during my term.

I'll give you a tip.

You aren't the first to propose this act.

There was an attempt to enact it

through the government in 2007, and the National Assembly in 2012.

Although they both fell through.

President Yang Jin-man made an attempt as well.

I believe it had been evaluated by the Legislative Office,

but when President Yang's approval ratings dropped,

it wasn't taken to the Cabinet.

Is that true?

I don't lie about things like this.

Have the Cabinet evaluate and send it to the National Assembly.

You can easily do that during your term.

It'll be a burden to you as well

with the election coming up.

That's why I'm asking you to share the burden

evenly between us.

If we miss this chance,

the Discrimination Act might never be enacted in Korea.

Why not?

It'll be hard for someone as politically uncalculating as you

to become President again, that's why.

Assemblywoman Yun,

you never mentioned to our party members...

that you agree with the Discrimination Act.

Then why...

Assemblywoman Yun?

Assemblywoman Yun is being transparent and reasonable.

It'll be hard for her or the party

to motion the bill.

It's different from what they've been going for until now.

That's why she reached out to you.

If it is legislated,

she'll make sure the National Assembly passes the bill.

She's a master of politics, just like I thought.

The reason she's a master of politics

is because she never

got her hands dirty in eliminating an opponent.

Her goal

is for you to get torn apart by the people

and become a wreck when you propose the bill.

Your head isn't an ornament to look pretty.

Think about it.

It's not possible for Assemblywoman Yun to move the entire National Assembly.

Are you naive or stupid?

If you keep being so calculating,

when will the government be able to move the people?

What's the point in recreating the government

if we don't propose any bills for five years

and just worry about approval ratings?

You, Secretary Cha, are

no better than Assemblywoman Yun, whom you criticize. You know that, right?

Why are we here in the first place?

Stop it.

That's enough.

Thanks to you two,

I've realized something.

That was more than enough for me to realize

how hard it is for the act to gain a national consensus.

From this moment on,

neither of you say anything for or against it.

I'll decide.

-Sir. -Sir.

You are dismissed.

Hey, Cha.

Let's talk.

"Hey, Cha"?

We can't settle this with words.

Not today.

Right?

Let's take this outside.

All right.

I'm on a roll today.

That's right.

The competitive Secretary Cha

won't be getting any sleep tonight.

To bless all without alienating,

excluding, or discriminating against anyone.

I'm not talking about the act.

It's what Dangun said about humanitarianism.

He had quite some foresight, didn't he?

Keep the victory speech short.

Okay.

Good.

I...

wake up at 4:30 am and come to work while the stars are still out.

I get pestered by reporters all day long.

At night,

I can't even meet friends for a drink, because I'm scared I may oversleep.

You're not the only one doing that.

Exactly.

For the past two years,

I thought we were fighting for a Blue House

that can propose something like the Discrimination Act,

Did you think differently?

This is hardly the right place for the Army Chief of Staff

to report to the Minister of National Defense.

It's because I'm not reporting to the Minister of National Defense.

Minister Oh.

You're the miraculous survivor

designed by the VIP,

right?

I assumed so when I saw you in the Blue House.

You were so cocky in front of me.

That means someone has got your back.

Someone who is

incredibly powerful.

The VIP.

You know what?

You think the NIS agent's documents

that prove you were the bomber's accomplice

were destroyed, don't you?

They were not.

The VIP has them.

At this rate,

even if you become President,

nothing will change.

You will

continue to be the VIP's player, a puppet,

and nothing more for the rest of your life.

Do you really want to live as the VIP's puppet

for the rest of your life?

What is it that you want to say?

Let's design

the whole thing again.

You and I have a power

that no one can look down on.

I am currently...

the leading Presidential candidate.

If nothing special happens,

I will be the President of this country in one month.

What are you talking about?

I assure you.

You will need my help before long,

Minister Oh Yeong-seok.

It's just as you expected.

General Eun started to meet with the bombers.

Because he thinks we're onto him,

he'll keep searching for an accomplice

who will be able to protect him.

Who is that VIP?

He said that VIP has the evidence on Minister Oh

that we have been looking for.

We need to find the VIP.

EUN HUI-JEONG

I need to meet the VIP, Mr. Kim.

I'm pretty sure I told you.

The VIP hates it when people cross the line.

If there's anything you'd like to say to the VIP, tell me.

I will pass it on.

Tell the VIP this.

The presidential election is going as planned,

but if the VIP keeps refusing to meet me,

then...

I will go forth with my plan and announce my withdrawal from the race.

Because I love

crossing the line.

I will pass it on

to the VIP, word for word.

GENERAL ELECTION POLLS

OH YEONG-SEOK, PARK MU-JIN, YUN-CHAN GYEONG

Just because

the Discrimination Act stipulates that no one

may be discriminated against due to their sexuality or sexual orientation,

the people believe that the law supports...

No, that it promotes and encourages same-sex relationships.

That is the society we live in.

Now do you realize

why the act was never legislated

even though UN urged us to for ten years?

If we miss this chance,

the Discrimination Act might never be enacted in Korea.

Why not?

It'll be hard for someone as politically uncalculating as you

to become President again, that's why.

Her goal is for you to get torn apart by the people

and become a wreck when you propose the bill.

This could severely damage your standing

in the first poll

since your candidacy announcement.

-But Mr. Cha-- -Sir.

You are now a presidential candidate.

The polls are everything.

Mr. President. You have a guest.

I want to join your presidential campaign.

I heard things have gotten tough since you announced

you'd propose the Discrimination Act.

I came from a rich family,

so I can't turn a blind eye to those in need.

I'm here to ask you

to use me as you please for your campaign.

After coming out that day,

I realized I made a mistake.

But reading about the Discrimination Act gave me courage.

I thought this country was hopeless,

but I realized it's actually getting a little better.

I suppose

I can't be of much help now though.

I may end up hurting you instead.

I know you might not want my help.

But I couldn't sit back and do nothing.

It's just...

too big a present for me.

As the head of the administration,

I was just proposing a law this country needs.

It is my completely normal and ordinary duty.

I don't think I deserve your kindness...

I can...

be true to my life now.

Thanks to you.

I thought

politicians were just shallow people

who beg and sell their souls for votes.

But now, I finally have a favorite politician.

I plan to vote for the first time in my life.

Thank you.

GENERAL ELECTION POLLS

Where is Secretary Cha?

Mr. President.

I know.

Soon, I'll be

a presidential candidate to whom the polls are everything.

So why are you doing this?

However, I'm still the Acting President of this country.

I'll take responsibility and fulfill my duties to the fullest.

Call a Cabinet meeting.

The agenda will be...

the Discrimination Act.

Are you so reckless that you don't realize

how crucial the polls are at this time for the election or are you just arrogant?

Oh Yeong-seok is declaring his candidacy tomorrow.

We must prove his involvement with the bombing

before he becomes a presidential candidate.

There's a sign of a coup.

For the first time,

I desperately have the urge to win the election.

Mr. President, you can never defeat me.
