[ The Great Show ]

[ Characters, locales, organizations, incidents,
and situations in this drama are fictitious ]

What are you doing here?

What else? I'm exercising.

I jog every morning out of habit.

That's what I mean.

Why are you jogging in this area?

Don't most people jog
in their neighborhood?

What do you mean by
"their neighborhood"?

I moved here yesterday.

What?

I look forward to it.

Wie Dae Han.

We're neighbors.

Why would you move into
this neighborhood?

Is it because of Soo Hyun, or...

to run for this district's
general election?

To tell you the truth, it's for both.

We'll be up against each other
in the same district.

Let's engage in fair play.

Fair play...

It's a wonderful term,

but I've been screwed
by that many times.

You be Mr. Wonderful.

I'll do fair play or dirty play.
Whatever it takes to win.

I'm off.

[ Episode 10: The Face-Off ]

What?

Attorney Kang moved into
this neighborhood?

Yeah.

Daebak.

It's because of you, Unni.

He's more manly than he looks.

He'll be running in this
district's election.

He was thinking it over.
Guess he made the decision.

So...

you knew about this?

Yes.

He was considering
going into politics.

[ The day of reckoning, who will be
the next DN party chairman? ]

Father.

You shouldn't be occupied
with your cellphone.

Why not?

Well, regarding love and politics,

that man is your rival.

You must set your boundaries.

Hey, leave "love" out of this.

If Joon Ho runs in this
district's election,

we could go head-to-head.

That's true.

If it's Joon Ho versus me,

who would you vote for?

It's a secret ballot.
Why ask such a thing?

I guess you may vote for him.

Why can't I grab this?

Geez...

[ Normal ]

[ Automatic ]

Unni, I'll do it.
You prepped our meal.

Aigoo, no, it's okay.
Get some rest.

Ahjussi is in a bad mood today.

I know.

Hey.

Attorney Kang moved into
our neighborhood?

He sure did.

My father-in-law ran into
him while jogging.

He's getting hot-and-heavy.

He must really like Soo Hyun
to make this move.

Right?

Boss, you should reprimand him.

Reprimand?

Why?

What do you mean?

He shouldn't hit on
someone who's taken.

You should give him a warning.

What the heck are you
talking about?

Who is Soo Hyun "taken" by?

You know who.

My father-in-law.

You punk...

Boss, what's going on?

Hey, hey, don't spew nonsense here.

Wie Dae Han is not
with my Soo Hyun.

He has four kids and
a grandchild on-the-way.

No, but the two of them are so...

I don't think so.

You...

Wie Dae Han will never
be my son-in-law.

Don't say needless things, you hear?

Why are you harassing this kid?

Let him go. You better let go!

- Let me go, let me go.
- Let go of him!

You let go first, you let go first!

You come to work and
just monkey around!

Let go right now, now, now!

- Mr. Jung.
- Yes?

Let me go.

Aigoo.

Vice President, what brings you by?

We have a problem.

We must hold an
emergency meeting.

An emergency meeting?

What's going on?

Why aren't you bowing?

You even did a
three-step pilgrimage.

It won't do any good.

Punk, you're upsetting Buddha.

Quiet and do a deep bow.

With an earnest heart for
the general election.

Kang Joon Ho moved
into our neighborhood.

Why would he do that?

He'll be running in
the general election.

I told you.

I said he'll be running.

Stay alert.

He's a tougher opponent
than Kang Kyung Hoon.

Tougher, my foot...

Solidify your core supporters first.

The "core" must be strong
to determine your win.

This is a good thing.

Perfect timing.

Why?

The adviser of Inju Market
Retailers Association

was our party's city counsel.

Park Sang Chul.

He was dismissed recently
for accepting bribery.

So it's an opportunity for you.

Your mom worked at
Inju Market for 30 years.

The market retailers would be
your perfect supporters.

I guess that's true.

Plus most of them are
born-and-bred here.

They have a lot of clout
in this area.

The market retailers talk a lot, too.

Since Park Sang Chul was
dismissed, the adviser position...

is up for grabs, right?

Now your head is starting to turn?

Before someone else takes it,

you should grab the
adviser position.

Get the market retailers
on your side.

Each one of them is
worth over 100 votes.

This place is nice.

Good ambiance, and it's quiet.

It's good for reading and working.

I'm a regular.

It's good having a friend
in my new neighborhood.

I get info on cafes, too.

I was surprised when
Sunbae told me.

I didn't know you'd
actually move here.

I've wanted to live on my own,

and I liked this area
after a few visits.

It has a friendly vibe,

and a good friend lives nearby.

I'm not sure I count as...

a good friend.

I was referring to Dae Han.

My good friend.

What?

How was your relationship
with him in high school?

Similar to how it is now.

What was it like?

He was very different from me.

We were classmates, but had
different friends, too.

Yeah, I get the picture.

So you've decided
on politics, correct?

- I left my law firm as well.
- Pardon?

I hesitate a lot before
making a decision,

but I tend to really go
for it once I do.

But why leave such a good firm?

Attorney Kang, you're
full of surprises.

I have...

one more surprise.

So you moved into...

Yes. Right behind your place.

Behind your building.

It felt so friendly and familiar.

This is a nice place.

However...

I feel burdened.

If you're burdened by our friendship,
we can be something closer.

You're joking, right?

Only half. I mean the other half.

Nevertheless, let's just be friends.

I'll get going then.

It's right behind you!

- Yes.
- Where?

- There.
- Yes, behind your building.

[ Inju Market Retailers Association ]
No, no.

If a shopping mall gets built,

they're telling us to close shop.

I know.

The prison site is right
near the market.

This is a disaster.

The economy is terrible as is.

We finally got rid of that
power-tripping ahjumma...

So where did you hear this from?

My nephew works at
Woo's Distribution.

He tells me that...

a shopping mall was decided
for Inju City a while back.

- And?
- They were eyeing the former prison site.

As you know, the rental apartment
project was thrown out.

The residents voted against it.

That's what I'm saying.

From Woo's
Distribution's standpoint,

they have a reason to
pursue a shopping mall now.

- This is insane, it's crazy!
- What should we do?

Everyone.

We must stay alert
at times like this.

We must all unite and
speak as one voice.

Everyone.

We need an adviser
at times like this.

He'll relay our message
to the higher-ups,

and fight on our behalf.
We need someone like that.

- We do, we do!
- Yes, he's right.

We don't have an
adviser at the moment.

- Let's elect one asap.
- Absolutely.

To block the tidal wave,

we need a strong shield.
Isn't that right?

[ Inju Market Retailers Association ]

- Any ideas?
- Who'd be a good candidate?

Please think of good candidates.

Hello, hello.

I'm Wie Dae Han,
the son of Inju Market.

- Aigoo, hello.
- How are you?

- Aigoo, have you been well?
- Yes.

Aigoo, Hyungnim. Hello.

Aigoo, what a pleasant surprise.

I'm enjoying your TV show.

Aigoo, thank you.

Our ratings have been good.

It's all thanks to everyone here.

- Yes, yes.
- Of course.

Please have some of this.

Aigoo, you shouldn't have.

Hey, so...

What are you doing here?

Well...

Actually, I wanted to issue
an apology to you all.

An apology? What do you mean?

Well,

Adviser Park Sang Chul who was
dismissed recently due to a scandal

was from our party.

Please accept my apologies
on behalf of my party.

I'm sorry.

- Aigoo, it's not your fault.
- It's okay.

No, no.

You weren't involved in that.

It's all right, it's all right.

Here, here. Have a seat, okay?

Thank you.

Your timing is perfect.

We were discussing who'd be
a good candidate for our new adviser.

Wow, this is really...

My mother, who is in heaven,
must've led me here.

What on earth.

Why bring up your mother here?

As you all know,

my mother had a restaurant
in the Inju Market for 30 years.

That's why Inju Market is
like my hometown,

my house, and like
being with my mom.

I've always wanted to aid in the
advancement of the market.

- That's right.
- His mom had a restaurant.

Now, now. What do you think?

I think Wie Dae Han would
be the perfect adviser.

- Right?
- That would be great!

He knows of our situation very well,

and he was even an assemblyman.

That's right, he was.

Aigoo, thank you.

Thank you all.

Everyone, I'm Wie Dae Han,
the son of Inju Market.

Please put your faith in me.

I will not disappoint you.

I'll give it my all!

- Thank you, thank you.
- This is great!

Wait, please wait.

Well, I'm sorry to
Wie Dae Han, but

I oppose.

You oppose?

But why?

Do you have another candidate
you want to recommend?

Yes.

You know, Attorney Kang Joon Ho.

He's Assemblyman Kang's son.

As far as I can see,
that man is more capable.

Kang Joon Ho?

He's a young, capable
attorney at that.

Yes, yes. So I was wondering...

Would you also be

interested in our market's
adviser position?

I'm very interested.

You are?

Actually, I moved to this area
after deciding on politics.

But why?

Assemblyman Kang's residence
is in the same district.

It's the same district,

but it seemed segregated
from the citizens.

If you appoint me,

I'll listen diligently to the
retailers, and do my best.

Of course.

You have the proper
attitude. Yes, you do.

The thing is...

there is another person
who wants the job,

so we must vote.

Will this be okay?

Of course.

Yes, we should vote.

So...

the adviser candidate.

Is it someone I know?

Yes, it's that Wie Dae Han...

The former Assemblyman Wie...

is interested as well. Yes.

Yes, I understand.

Then I'll pay you
a visit and say hello.

Now we're really getting started.

Father.

Why would you recommend
Joon Ho as the adviser?

Father, by chance...

Are you considering
Joon Ho as your son-in-law?

Look, I'm the president of
Market Retailers Association.

I can separate work
and personal matters.

If that's not it,

then what is your reason?

Aren't you close with Mayor Jung?

Yes, we are.

What does that matter?

Didn't the mayor tell you?

A shopping mall may get
built on the prison site.

- It's my first time hearing it.
- What on earth?

We heard Woo's Distribution will
build a shopping mall complex.

Over there. On the
former prison site.

If that gets built,

our sales will be slashed
in half in no time.

That's why we're rushing
to elect an adviser.

Right now,

we need someone who'll stop the
shopping mall from getting built.

And?

Are you saying Joon Ho will
do a better job than I will?

To stop that sort of thing,

there will be legal battles involved.

From that standpoint,

Attorney Kang has the
upper hand, of course.

Also, Assemblyman Kang
made a promise to me.

We hear rumors of

a shopping center or
something being built here.

Please put a stop to it,
Assemblyman.

Yes, of course.

I'm your district's assemblyman.

I must protect you all.

- Aigoo, yes.
- Please don't worry.

He said he'll stop it
from getting built.

Okay, fine.

I understand how you feel.

The voting is a week away, right?

Yes.

Then I'll show you in a week.

What?

That I'll be more beneficial to the
market retailers than Joon Ho.

It's my first time ever.

Winning a doll from
the arcade machine!

He wants to be friends,
then moves in next door.

Anyway, I don't like it.

He's being true to his feelings.

Isn't it a good thing?

Unni, you try being true
to your feelings.

What about me?

I'm as honest as it gets.

Dae Han oppa.

You still have feelings for him.

Isn't that why you're not
with the attorney?

Goodness, gracious.

Since you came over to my place,
I thought a disaster happened.

Of course, this is a disaster.

The prison site is not even 1km
away from the Inju Market.

If a shopping mall really gets built,

- then the entire area...
- I know, I know.

Market retailers will
suffer a huge loss.

Hey, do you think I'd just
standby and watch?

Yes, Woo's Distribution is

in the process of pursuing
a shopping mall in Inju City.

But you're right. Not that area.

As you said, it's too
close to Inju Market.

That's what I mean.

The adviser position is
not the problem here.

This concerns the livelihood
of market retailers.

I'll do whatever it takes to
stop that, so don't worry.

You focus on the adviser election.

Also, if you're up against
Kang Joon Ho...

It's a preview of the
general election.

I suppose so.

Assemblyman.

You can't lose your ground here.

You know the election is
a battle of the momentum.

Hey.

Inju Market is my home ground.

Even if Joon Ho moved
here, he's still a guest.

An unwelcome guest. You know?

Would the market retailers
share the sentiment?

Why wouldn't they? Huh?

Breaking news.

During today's Democratic
Nationalist Party's convention,

Assemblyman Kang Kyung Hoon was
elected as the party's chairman.

Assemblyman Kang received
48.08% of the votes.

He beat out Assemblyman
Han Tae Chun and

candidate Kim Yoon Dae.

- He's now the DN Party's chairman.
- Wow, he's the party's chairman,

and his son will take the district.

All is going according to
Kang Kyung Hoon's plan.

Hey.

Mike Tyson once said that

everyone has a great strategy.

Until they're beaten to a pulp.

I'll destroy...

Kang Kyung Hoon's plans.

It's nicer than I thought.

I want to live here, too.

It's getting late. Get to the point.

You're so stoic, just like your father.

Anyhow, congrats on
your father's chairman win.

You should congratulate
my father about that.

Why are you so cynical?

Did something happen
with your father?

You moved out all of a sudden.

I'm well past the independent age.

It's something I've been planning.

What about leaving your firm?

I'm sure you've heard already.

I'll be running in the
general election.

Why did you change your mind?

You didn't want to be
a politician before.

I got tired of being an
analyst outside the arena.

I see.

That's probably not
the real reason,

but I'll help you.

A companion for the
rocky road ahead.

An unwanted companion
is a burden.

As surprise visits like this
are uncomfortable.

I understand.

I'll get going.

Kim Hye Jin.

What are you doing here?

I was visiting Joon Ho oppa.

I see.

I heard he moved into
this neighborhood.

Where is Joon Ho's place?

I guess you don't know.

It's over there.

The building right next to
Soo Hyun's place.

Actually, I wanted to
talk to you, Oppa.

Huh?

Wie Dae Han versus
Kang Joon Ho.

I'm so looking forward
to the general election.

Is that what you wanted to say?

I have feelings for Joon Ho oppa.

I mean it.

Inappropriately directed to
your ex-boyfriend, isn't it?

Honestly, you and I...

were in a strategic partnership.

I was attracted because

you were a young politician
with a promising future,

and you thought of me...

as a good politician's
wife, didn't you?

So what are you trying to say?

How about...

a strategic partnership again?

What?

Oppa, you like Soo Hyun.

I'll help you two along.
But instead...

you help me, too.

I'm not interested.

I have four kids, and the general
election is coming up.

I can't afford to worry
about my love life.

Really?

If we're done, I'll get going.

Actually, I ran into Soo Hyun's
college best friend recently.

[ Theory and Policy on
Regional Development ]

[ Traditional Market
Revitalization Plan ]

And she said...

that Soo Hyun used to like
you a lot in college.

You're Soo Hyun's first love,

and she had a hard time
after cutting ties with you.

Please don't contact
me from now on.

Soo Hyun.

By any chance, have I
done anything wrong?

No, you haven't.

I hate having someone
around when I'm struggling.

[ Dae Han sunbae ]
Are you sleeping?

No.

Why?

How about we grab a beer?

Hey.

What's up?

Why did you drink so much?

No, I didn't.

- Aigoo...
- You want one?

Here.

- There you go.
- Whoa.

There.

So...

why drink beer all of a sudden?

I was craving beer, that's all.

Hey, so...

I heard Joon Ho moved
into the next building.

- Did you know that?
- Yes.

- He did.
- I see.

I guess you knew.

I saw him briefly earlier.

You see him often now.

Things must be going well.

We decided to be friends.

Truthfully,

a serious relationship with him
would be burdensome.

We'll be working together
on the show, too.

"Friendship" masks an
ambiguous relationship, no?

You have a point.

Oh, that's right.

There's a shopping mall in the
works on the former prison site.

My dad is very worried about it.

It's just a floating rumor.

Even if it's true,

I'll do whatever it takes to
stop it, so don't worry.

It's very reassuring.

Come on, it's nothing.

I remember something
you said in college.

What is it?

The reason you'll go into politics...

is so you can support
the weaklings.

You were cool back then, Sunbae.

Speaking of college days...

Why did you cut me off
all of a sudden?

I told you, I don't remember.

You asked me last time,
why ask again?

I used to like you back then.

You know...

the day we went to the movies.

Truthfully, that day...

- I was going to...
- Why...

bring that up now?

It's been more than 10 years.

Regardless of our
feelings back then...

It's in the past now.

Hey, I think it's rain...

It's raining, it's raining.

Hey, come here. This way.

Come here, hurry, hurry.

Aigoo...

You're getting soaked in the rain.

We should've bought
two umbrellas.

Aigoo, it's all right.

We're almost there.

And disregard what I said earlier.

You're right.

It's been over 10 years,

and we've both changed a lot.

Take it.

No, you take it. You bought it.

Give it back next time.

Hey, Sunbae.

Sunbae!

♫ I wondered if I had
made a mistake ♫

♫ The words that I'm saying to you ♫

Right.

To be of support to the weaklings.

Let's focus on that.

♫ Will tomorrow be a
better day than today ♫

♫ Will I be able to smile
tomorrow as I did yesterday ♫

♫ The night is full of pain ♫

♫ My love, whom I adore ♫

♫ I know my love will be suffering ♫

You have feelings for
Dae Han oppa.

Why do you deny your feelings?

Because...

I had feelings for Sunbae...

♫ I can only say this to you ♫

you ended up this way.

Really? It's a date?

Well, it's not exactly a date.

He said I worked hard on the posters,
so he'll treat me to a movie.

That's a date!

♫ The night is full of pain ♫

♫ My love, whom I adore ♫
If...

I hadn't met Sunbae that day...

you wouldn't have...

♫ By myself ♫

I believe I was elected as
our party's chairman

to unify the party,

and to rebuild "conservatism."

I see this as a command
from our citizens,

and the members of our party.

Hello.

Yes.

Hey, what brings you by so early?

I want to start my day at the

market with all the retailers,

and finish my day here.

Really? But why?

I want to fully understand
what the retailers go through.

- Let's go inside.
- Yes, sir.

Yum. Wow...

It's really delicious, sir.

May I please have some more?

- Of course, you can.
- Aigoo, thank you.

You may not know this,

but I used to know your mother.

Wow, really?

I had no idea.

My dumpling shop has
been here for 17 years.

About 10 years ago,

I was swindled and had a hard time.

Oh, I see.

But your mother lent
me some money,

and gave me free food
at her restaurant.

I was very grateful to her.

Because of your mother,

I'll support you as our adviser.

Give it your best shot.

Thank you, sir.

I'll give it my all.

Thank you.

Guys.

For this week's
"People's Assembly Hall,"

what about reviving the
traditional markets?

What about the original topic?

Another show
discussed it yesterday.

We can't be serving flat sodas.

Revitalizing traditional markets
is also an old topic.

The bills exist already.

Yes, but there are too
many loopholes.

Even in our town,

they're building a shopping
mall right near the market.

Oh, yeah.

Unni, your parents have a chicken
restaurant in the market.

They must be worried.

But I don't agree that
traditional markets are good,

and shopping malls are
evil in this scenario.

Me neither.

I don't go to the traditional market
when the supermarket is closed.

You're right.

You guys have a good point.

So let's have a "dispute."

I'm Kang Joon Ho,
your adviser candidate.

Hello. I'm Kang Joon Ho,
your adviser candidate.

Hello!

Yes, Ms. Jung.

That's great.

It's my area of interest these days.

Then this week's topic will
be traditional markets.

But this topic...

Was it Dae Han's idea?

No, why?

He's a candidate for
Inju Market's adviser.

Both Dae Han and I.

Goodness, I had no idea.

Perhaps we should
change the topic then.

Why?

Our show may affect the
results of your election.

I think it's actually better that way.

The market retailers can
watch us debate,

and it'll aid in their
rational decision making.

Isn't that the purpose of our show?

Yes, it is, but...

Now that you're running
in the election,

you must know that
every word you say

on-air can come back
to haunt you, right?

I know it too well.

And it still doesn't matter?

Are you too easy-going or
full of confidence?

- The latter seems cooler.
- Aigoo.

Thank you for your support.

- Yes, yes.
- Have a good one.

I'll prepare for our
broadcast on that topic.

Okay.

A law firm attorney shouldn't be
lollygagging around on a weekday.

I left the law firm recently.

If I have something to fall back on,

I wouldn't be giving this my all.

I see.

Is that right?

You should have that much
gusto to be in politics.

But gusto alone doesn't cut it.

I'm sure.

That's why I want to learn
everything step-by-step.

Aigoo...

Learning should be done at school.

A market place isn't for learning.

It's a fierce ground for everyday lives.

Don't let your awkward gusto cause
harm to the market retailers.

Give up the adviser election.

Thanks for the advice,
but I won't be giving up.

I think I told you already.

That I'll be giving it my all.

You sure have a way with words.

But that's not in line with
your father's political style, no?

I didn't want to hear that.

So I'll be running as an independent,
not as a DN Party nominee.

This week's topic is

revitalizing the traditional markets.

I look forward to
a heated discussion.

I'm off.

Hello.

Yes.

I'm Kang Joon Ho,
your adviser candidate.

Okay, today is the 16th.

So number 16.

Oh, it's Da Jung. Never mind, sit.

No, I'm okay, sir.

It's all right, sit.
You must be exhausted.

- Whatever.
- So stupid.

Let's have number 26 solve it.

Who's number 26?

- It's you.
- S***...

So annoying.

Han Da Jung, are you okay?

Yes, I'm fine.

Talk about Hollywood action.

Hey, go and solve the
equation, will you?

Please don't do this at school.

I feel bad for my friends.

Han Da Jung's cute baby.

Enjoy the picture.

So gross.

I'm about to barf.

You should've given us a heads-up.

I was so startled.

What the? Mentally prepare us first.

I almost hurled my phone.

[ Baby Monkfish ]

What are your thoughts?

About what?

Joon Ho running as an independent.

Don't you think it's all a show?

A show?

Plus...

even if that's what he wants,

Kang Kyung Hoon
wouldn't stand for it.

Independent candidates
rarely get elected.

That's true.

Yes, this is Wie Dae Han.

Assemblyman Wie! I'm with
the Retailers Association.

Can you please come to
the Vice President's store?

That's the landlord's son.

Sir, this is frustrating.

Oh, you're here.

You want us to move out?

Last time, you said
we'll renew our contract!

How many times must I tell you?

I said I changed my mind.

But still. If you kick us
out so suddenly,

you're telling us to die!

If you tell us to get out,
you're telling us to die!

How can you do this?

This is how I am.

I always change
my mind back and forth.

It's hard on me, too.

So stop tormenting me,

and let's just do what
our contract states.

Per our contract.

Sir.

I've been here for 17 years.

Think of our long-lasting bond.

Actually, I inherited this building
from my dad two years ago.

I haven't known you too long, so...

Sir...

- Let me go.
- But sir.

I said, let me go!

Aigoo, sir!

Sir, sir...

Are you okay?

Everyone, get out of here!

Hey!

What?

He fell because of you,
and you just leave?

Apologize to him.

I don't want to.

What?

Since you're the landlord,
you think you're all that?

Yup, that's right.

What a punk!

- What did you say?
- Assemblyman, no, no, please don't.

Just ignore him.

If that pisses you off,
you be the landlord.

You bastard...

Let go of me.

I said, let go, punk!

Hey, punk! Come here.

- Come here!
- Assemblyman, please!

Let go.

Man, I should go to the hospital.

This man shoved the elder first.
It was self-defense.

Are you kidding me?

Look at my face.

Detective,

I have no intention of settling.

Let's do it by the law, by the law.

Yes, let's do that.

Let's see whose side
the law favors. Yes.

I understand the situation,

but you shouldn't use your fist.

You were even an assemblyman.

Well, this is why I stepped forward.

Just because this young
punk has some money,

he power-trips and wields
violence against an elder.

Should I standby and watch?
I'm a former assemblyman!

Well,

if you use your fists,

he won't be evicted from his store?

You know...

I planned on waiting until
he found a new space.

But he had someone beat me up.

Vacate the store right
on the contract ending date.

How dare you speak rudely to him...

- Aigoo...
- What are you doing?

You're at the police station!
Sit down!

- Let him go.
- I said, sit!

- Let go.
- Aigoo, seriously.

Regardless, since you
did assault the victim,

you'll be booked
on assault charges.

It wasn't one-sided.

Sir, are you all right?

Hey, what happened?

Shoving is an assault, too.

- They should both be charged.
- And who are you?

I'm Attorney Kang Joon Ho.
[ Attorney Kang Joon Ho ]

Your wife told me

that you signed a dual contract?

That's what the landlord
had wanted.

The contract states
300,000 won as the rent,

but I deposited an additional 1 million won
every month to a different account.

That's tax evasion, and it's illegal.

If it's been over 10 years,

unpaid tax amount would be sizable.

Then couldn't we use that
as leverage to negotiate?

That would be against the law, but...

That punk broke the law, not the VP.

Under the circumstances,

that would be the only way.

The lease is over 10 years old,

and you're not protected
by the contractual laws.

Regardless,

thank you very much for
your heartfelt concern.

Don't mention it.

I'm still not sure what's going on,

but our attorney showed up
and saved the day.

Thank you so much, too.

No, I didn't do anything.

No.

The fact that someone else is angry
for me is quite reassuring.

Thank you very much.

This is nothing. It's not
like you to be so down.

It's all right, you have the "Dispute."

You'll blow
Kang Joon Ho away on-air.

If I blow him away...

Pardon?

Is that a good thing?

What do you mean?

Yes, it's a good thing. It's not?

Kang Kyung Hoon was a simple foe.

No matter what I pulled off,

he was such a scumbag...

I knew I was better than him.

And?

But Joon Ho is not like that.

He's such a gentleman.

Yes, it'd be good for me to
beat him in the election...

but is it a good thing
for the citizens?

Kang Joon Ho...

I don't know what he's like,
and I'm not interested.

But I see Kang Joon Ho
and Kang Kyung Hoon...

being one and the same.

How would you know that, punk?

Blood is thicker than water.

Look at today's incident.

The VP getting evicted
from his shop...

Isn't it strange?

Are you thinking...

that Kang Kyung Hoon is
behind this?

He even staged his own attack.

This is a piece of cake.

But why would he?

Why do you think?

To promote his son,

and to destroy you.

Do you know Assemblyman
Kang Kyung Hoon?

Did he order you to throw us out?

Anyhow, vacate the store
by the end of the month.

Good work.

Bye.

We'll release the
assault video tonight.

But was inciting the
landlord necessary?

Thanks to that, Joon Ho is seen
as a capable politician over there,

and Wie Dae Han will be labeled
as a thug who uses his fists.

A lion isn't the king of the jungle

by his sheer strength alone.

He doesn't let up on
a small prey until the very end.

That's why he's the king.

Why the hem and haw?

What? Did something
happen at school?

No.

Nothing happened, but...

I...

want to quit attending school.

Why all of a sudden?

I think I was too greedy.

I get more tired than I thought,

and I'm an aspiring webtoon artist.

It won't require school courses.

I'll get ready for my delivery,

and prep for contest submissions.

Is that really the only reason?

Yes, of course.

What else could there be?

Geez, I'm so popular.

When I leave school,
girls will be sad.

"Chatroom Prison"?

Make a chatroom, trap one person,
and everybody tortures them.

They all take turns hurling
insults at the target victim.

The chatroom is like
a torture chamber.

Han Da Jung.

Give me your cellphone.

Why?

Sorry for an invasion
of your privacy.

Why do you want to
see my phone?

We're just texting among ourselves.

We'll see about that, huh?

Han Da Jung left again?

Yeah, she's on top of it.

She should be worn out soon.

You can't leave this place.

But aren't we super diligent?

Why isn't Han Da Jung
in night class?

You didn't know? Our teacher
is playing favorites.

Should I get pregnant, too?

This smells like corruption.

Her dad is an assemblyman.

Maybe money is involved?

So freaking annoying. Puke.

Why...

didn't you say anything?

You should've said something to
Sunbae or me about this.

Why keep it to yourself like a fool?

I didn't want to burden anyone.

Not to you...

and not to Ahjussi.

Regarding this...

Tell your homeroom
teacher tomorrow.

This is a felony.

They'll only take disciplinary action.

The girls doing this...

are not afraid of disciplinary action.

If a violence committee gets
held, it'll be harder on me.

I'll just...

quit school.

Why should you quit?

They should be the ones
expelled, not you.

You're attending school to be
a dignified mom to your baby.

If so, don't avoid this issue.

Face it confidently.

Come here, you bastard. What?

Please stop, please, please.

Please stop.

Punk!

Come here, come here.

Let me go, you punk!

Assemblyman, please!

Let me go, let go of me!

Wie Dae Han, I thought you came to
your senses, but you're still the same.

A former assemblyman
wielding violence?

Wie Dae Han, shame on you.

Look at the shenanigans
he's pulling here.

What's wrong with
"The Nation's Dad" these days?

Wow, never a dull day
for Wie Dae Han.

You think Kang Kyung Hoon
was behind this?

To promote his son,
and to destroy you.

Fine.

Let's duke it out.

We'll see who dies.

Isn't she sickening?

I would've quit school already.

She doesn't want to be
a middle school grad.

If education was so important,
she should've used protection.

I know.

Why are we the ones
suffering here?

Wow, she's something, isn't she?

We're paying so much
attention to her,

but she ignores us.

What?

You'll threaten to report me again?

No.

Something you said to me.

You're not the only
one holding it in.

We're uncomfortable and
upset because of you,

but we're all holding it in.

You were right.

I'm not the only one suffering.

I'm wearing on your nerves,
and it's hard on you guys.

Yet I ignored it.

I'm sincerely sorry.

If you feel that way,

you should quit school now.

I have given that some thought,

but an unni of mine
said this to me.

Da Jung.

Do you know what the most
misused phrases are?

What is it?

"It's different" versus "It's wrong."

So many people say, "It's wrong" when
they should say, "It's different."

A high school girl getting pregnant...

It's not to be encouraged or anything,

but it's not "wrong."

It's just "different."

But people get upset
over differences,

and they get critical.

You're right.

I think so, too.

When you suffer such attacks,

you question if you're in the wrong

and wonder if you'll be
completely alienated.

You start to worry.

I'm saying, don't be like that.

No need to be scared.

You're not "wrong" just "different."

Yes, I'm different from other girls,

but I'm not in the wrong.

Since I'm different from you,

you may not like it...

or make you uncomfortable.

But I want us to get along.

Sorry for startling you.

As you can see,
my phone is messed up.

If you have anything to say...

say it to my face.

♫ A morning like any other day ♫

Do you want some?

♫ My mind is full of clouds ♫

Thanks.

♫ I feel such warmth from you ♫

You were so cool earlier.

Honestly, it was tough.

Hiding my "cool factor"
this whole time.

Really?

- That was funny, huh?
- Tiny bit.

What's up with the
class president?

Unbelievable, isn't it?

Let her be.

- What?
- Let her be?

After what Han Da Jung did earlier?

I'm tired of this.

It's no fun.

♫ I'm shouting that I don't
want a goodbye ♫

♫ You don't seem to care
and I hate you ♫

[ Da Jung ]
I faced them confidently
per your advice,

and now I have a great friend.

[ How to revitalize
traditional markets ]

[ Analysis of traditional markets ]

[ Message ]

Assemblyman, I found
an article that will

deliver a crushing blow
to Kang Joon Ho.

What the heck?

Why isn't the "Dispute" on?

I'm dying of curiosity here.

You're so impatient.

It'll start in 30 minutes.

Really?

Aigoo, the clock is ticking slowly...

So...

did you prep a lot?

So-so.

- And you?
- Huh?

Not much to prep.

I drafted a bill on traditional market
revitalization when I was an assemblyman.

You know it's my area of interest.

I should be on my toes.

I'm curious about something.

Why do you insist on
registering independent?

I've seen too many politicians ruin
themselves with a bad start.

If I inherit everything from my father,

then I'll be indebted to him.

Kang Joon Ho, you're amazing,

I hope you stay that way,
I really mean it.

It'll mean an easier victory for me.

Our next segment is a hot topic
among our viewers.

"People's Assembly Hall,"

where the viewers get to participate.

[ People's Assembly Hall ]

Former Assemblyman Wie Dae Han
has prepared today's bill.

- What is the bill, please?
- Yes.

The motion for today's bill is

a special law for revitalizing
the traditional markets.

Of course, there are
related existing laws.

However, it's insufficient to
revitalize the traditional markets

which are already suffering.

That's right!

Wie Dae Han is the man who'll
revitalize the traditional markets.

- Yup!
- Yes, he is.

Everyone, please be quiet!

It's Attorney Kang's turn to talk.

We should listen to
what he says, too.

Yes! Let's see.

- I don't think anyone...
- Quiet!

will oppose revitalization of
the traditional markets.

What's important are the
ways to go about it.

If we look at the bill you've prepared,

all it states is that we should
tighten the regulations.

"Regulations" don't sound too good.

The point I'm getting at

is that we should strongly
protect the local businesses,

and the traditional markets.

Being overprotective is not
the best parenting method.

These regulations under the title

of "protection" could actually serve to

weaken the competitiveness of small
businesses and traditional markets.

Wait a minute.

Pitting a preschooler
against an older kid.

Is that good parenting?

Then will the child be
more competitive?

From where I stand,

the child could even die. Right?

It's those childish statements

which stress the incorrectness
of these regulations.

If the supermarkets are on holiday,

are the traditional markets busier?

No, they're not.

Forced holidays are not helpful
to the local businesses.

The research indicates this fact.

Actually, due to the
reduction of foot traffic,

research indicates retailers nearby
supermarkets show decreased sales.

I think I understand now.

Why you gave such an interview.

What do you mean?

This is from your interview with
a magazine from last year.

This is from September of last year.

I'll read it out loud.

Everyone, listen carefully.

"Recent increase in
large shopping malls

are killing off the local businesses.
Your thoughts?" That was the question.

Which you replied,

"Large shopping malls don't solely
kill off the local businesses."

What the?

"Yes, the large shopping malls

may partially decrease the
local businesses' sales.

But it'll raise the employment rates
and revitalize the entire region."

What the heck?

This is what you said.

What is he talking about?

Did Attorney Kang say
something like that?

You gave this interview, correct?

Why?

You don't remember?

Yes, I did say that
during the interview.

Using the law to prevent
the shopping malls...

won't protect the traditional
markets nor revitalize the region.

It won't be beneficial to either sides.

I knew it, I knew it.

Of course, we stop them with
the law. Not with our bodies!

Not with our fists!

- Darn it...
- What the heck is he saying?

To elaborate further,

Attorney Kang and I reside
in the same district.

There are rumors of a large
shopping mall getting built

nearby the traditional market.

Do you know about this?

Yes, I'm aware of it.

Yes. Then according
to your interview,

you won't oppose a large
shopping mall coming in.

You'll be welcoming it.

Your question is missing its mark.

No. It nails the mark exactly.

If a multi-purpose shopping
center gets built,

all the small businesses and traditional
markets in the vicinity will suffer.

I'm asking if this
doesn't matter to you.

Local businesses' suffering
isn't a fact, it's hypothetical.

Was that too difficult to answer?

Is this such a difficult question?

Whether fact or hypothesis, you must
simply answer based on your belief.

I'll ask again.

A large shopping mall should

get built nearby a traditional
market. Yes or no?

Give us a clear answer.

My belief is...

that stopping a large shopping
mall from coming in...

is not beneficial to any party.

Oh, no.

I knew it, I knew it.

I know he's a good man,

but he's born with a silver spoon.

Since he's an attorney, I thought
he'd be the best candidate.

Fine.

- Whatever! Turn it off.
- Don't watch anymore.

I'll also state my beliefs.

To protect the local businesses
and traditional markets,

the shopping malls

should not be in close
proximity to them.

That's all.

He's digging his own grave.

Voting won't even be necessary.

But you never know until
you open the ballot box.

Anyway, you'll be elected
as our adviser.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Yes, sir. Don't worry about a thing.

I'll do my best for the
market retailers!

Hi.

Today's broadcast was
one for the books.

One for the books, oh my.

I was talking to Soo Hyun's
dad on the way here.

I'm a shoo-in for the adviser.

Of course.

Kang Joon Ho sided with the
shopping malls during the broadcast.

They wouldn't elect him
as the adviser.

Where is Han Soo hyungnim?

He's here with Chairman Baek.

And one more person.

Really?

I wonder who?

- You saw the broadcast, right?
- Yes, yes.

- Hello.
- Oh, Assemblyman Wie!

Come in, come in. Have a seat.

- Hello.
- Assemblyman Wie.

You were great today.

As I was listening to you speak,

my heart was about to burst!

You flatter me.

It's no flattery.

You came up above
Kang Joon Ho tonight.

Truthfully, Joon Ho is
not in my league yet.

I almost felt bad today.

Wow, seriously.
Is this another jab?

- All right. I'll pour you a drink.
- Yes, sir.

Here. Aigoo, great job.

We've never met before...

Oh, right.

Say hello.

You know him, right?

- Assemblyman Wie Dae Han.
- Of course.

He's well known as
"The Nation's Dad."

I really enjoyed tonight's broadcast.

Thank you.

Thank you for your support.

Aigoo, no, no.

I'll be needing your support.

It's a pleasure to meet you.

[ Woo's Distribution ]
I'm Director Lee Kang Heon
from Woo's Distribution.

If a shopping mall really gets built,
then the entire area...

I know, I know.

Market retailers will
suffer a huge loss.

Hey, do you think I'd just
standby and watch?

The prison site is
a golden piece of land.

Something must get built there.

Director Lee is taking
great pains for it.

Inju City should have a
multi-purpose shopping center.

Director Lee, this guy is
the "son of Inju Market."

He'll persuade all the
market retailers.

- No need to worry.
- Okay.

Okay! With that being said,

- let's make a big toast.
- Yes, sir.

All right.

Assemblyman Wie,
what are you doing?

For our party's victory!

Cheers!

[ Woo's Distribution ]

♫ You and me, and our dreams ♫

♫ Even though we can't live
them out with ease ♫

♫ It's still nice to be together ♫

♫ Even when going gets tough ♫

[ The Great Show ]

Darn it. I lied to the
entire nation on live TV!

It's a bribe, a bribe.

You must stop the shopping mall.

The compensation isn't
enough to satisfy anyone.

Doing this won't change anything.

We both have changed
a lot, indeed.

Han Tak! Aigoo, aigoo...

Ahjussi, are you being a gorilla?

The confirmation on Woo's mall.
You really found out today?

To neutralize Inju Market retailers'
opposition, they needed someone...

That Wie Dae Han was the traitor!
