Episode 20

Financial Supervisory Service and the Strategy & Finance Committee had a meeting this morning

and decided on the sale of Daehan Bank which has brought further instability to banking.

So far, the parties showing interest in purchasing the bank are

Manhattan's Schilde Bank in the U.S. and Wellington's Ocean Capital in New Zealand.

It looks like the purchase of Daehan Bank was Jang Tae Joo's plan.

How much of Sung Jin Cement shares does Daehan Bank own?

It's seventeen percent.

If I cancel the joint voting rights I have with Choi Seo Yoon...

with the shares I have and the few shares Dong Hui gave me

along with the purchase of Daehan Bank...

Then Mr. Jang Tae Joo will become the biggest shareholder of Sung Jin Cement.

- The Sung Jin Group Chairman... - Will be me.

Ocean Capital's private equity firm will invest...

Jang Tae Joo will convince the Financial Supervisory Service and the Finance Committee.

And if Ocean Capital takes over Daehan Bank...

They can take Daehan Bank to New Zealand

and the seventeen percent of Sung Jin Cement shares will come into my hands.

Get ready to return to the Group.

The last fight between Jang Tae Joo and me...

Has begun.

We can block the international sale of Daehan Bank.

I'll let the media know what happens when financial capital flows out to foreign countries.

We'll create the public opinion that it's an outflow of national wealth...

No, advertise the advantages of selling Daehan Bank abroad.

Ma'am.

The underdeveloped financial industry should be raised on par with global standards.

This is the fight that Mr. Jang Tae Joo created.

I will win.

Contact the Schilde Bank in Manhattan.

Promise them the support they want.

If Schilde Bank of Manhattan takes over Daehan Bank

they must hand over the shares of Sung Jin Cement. That's our condition.

Yes, ma'am.

Daehan Bank will be handed over to foreign capital. The question is...

between Jang Tae Joo and me, who will get the shares from it?

Whoever earns the shares will become the owner of Sung Jin Group.

Managing Director Jang Tae Joo must have made a lot of preparations.

No matter how much he has prepared...

there is something someone from a ghetto cannot have.

Eun Jung, you look so tired.

I'll bring you the cornelian cherry to the department store in the afternoon.

It's packed individually so you can easily take three times a day...

Jung Yoon, you should take care of your older brother, too.

Department stores can be managed with just one finger.

I have over a dozen affiliated companies.

I take care of one here, there's a problem at another one there.

I'm reviewing the long-term development plan for the Group today...

I'm not sure if I'll even have time to eat lunch.

Enjoy your lunch, Won Jae. You don't need to review the plan.

You'll be stepping down from the chairman's seat soon.

When are you meeting with Schilde Bank of Manhattan?

I have lunch plans with the representative of their Asia Pacific team.

My opportunity was your crisis

and your crisis was my opportunity.

But this time, it's an opportunity for both of us.

This is the round I created. I think you should at least say thank you.

Daehan Bank has seventeen percent of Sung Jin Cement shares.

This man and I started the bid on Daehan Bank.

If Ocean Capital takes it over, then he'll be sitting in your seat.

And if Schilde Bank of Manhattan takes over, I'll be sitting there.

Eun Jung, make an office for Won Jae in the department store.

Hey hey, Seo Yoon!

Won Jae, please take care of the debt from Auto before that.

Hey hey, the country rose from exports.

Sure, let's sell everything.

Okay, sell the company, sell the land and even public organizations!

But banks shouldn't be sold.

I will block that!

Move aside. I don't want to see you get hurt.

The little sister is the only one worried about the big brother.

When are you meeting with Ocean Capital?

We're having dinner. I'll be a little late tonight.

Even if you miss me, just wait.

Turn off the light and go to bed first.

Oh, that's right. I almost forgot.

I have a reunion in the afternoon.

Eun Jung, I'll bring the cornelian cherries at a later time.

Much later.

Between Tae Joo and Seo Yoon, regardless of who becomes the chairman

we just need the 170 billion debt of Auto taken care of.

I'll take care of Tae Joo.

Jung Yoon, stay by Seo Yoon...

Dong Hui, I feel embarrassed about us looking so shallow.

Jung Yoon, just know what's on my mind.

Once we save the 170 billion, I'm going to rush the new car development.

From the new cars that I create, I want to give the very first one... to you.

Dong Hui.

From now on Jung Yoon, from all the cars made by Sung Jin Auto

I'll give you the first car as a gift.

I'll take the cornelian cherries to Seo Yoon.

I'll meet with Tae Joo and Dong Hui and try to convince them.

Eun Jung, find Jung Yoon and Seo Yoon and...

They're sharing cornelian cherries in the library.

I don't think there's any left for me.

Eun Jung, now that I'm sitting in the chairman's seat, I can see it.

What I should do, how I should do it...

I feel like I just took my first step after I turned 50.

I want to walk a little more. Go to the library and tell them...

Won Jae, there are lands owned by Corporate in Junggye-dong and Hwagok-dong.

Sell them to the department stores at the appraised value.

If you sell now, we'll get twice the profit.

Eun Jung!

For the gifts that Life and Fire send out to their customers

sign an exclusive contract with the department store for about five years.

I'll send you the papers, so sign it while you're still there...

I have a lot of things I want to do, Eun Jung!

You can't do what you want.

Do what you can, Won Jae.

I'm glad. I was worried that you might be stepping down suddenly...

Let's move everything we can to the department store.

We don't have time. Hurry...

My daughter Eun Jung who used to jump around with joy in the living room

from fried chicken that I brought home on my payday.

I made you this way. I'm sorry.

I should've taken your hand and brought you home that time.

Let's go to Dubai some time.

Get some air and toss Daehan Bank to New Zealand...

The beer we drank by the Han River on the day we took the Cement shares...

Let's drink that beer watching the sunset on a desert, President Choi Min Jae.

What an interesting world.

You said there wouldn't be another day when I could smile.

Does the person sinking in water shout for help depending on who the passerby is?

If you just save me, I'll give you a big bundle.

I heard you lowered your head to the director of the Urban Development office.

And last week, you held a book publishing party for an ex-Vice Minister.

The amount that you have to lower your head for ten years...

I'll fill that up for you if you just hold my hand once.

Consider it a gift from an old friend.

What do you want me to do?

Financial Supervisory Service, the Finance Committee...

the ones who run on their feet stand next to me.

But it's hard to even get business cards from the ones above who sign the papers.

They're my father's friends.

And the officers that Chairman Choi Dong Sung raised.

If Seo Yoon makes one call, they'll run to her library.

Help me treat the friends of ex-Vice Chairman Choi Dong Jin to dinner.

If you just set up the table, I'll hand out the cards.

Tae Joo.

For ten years, no, twenty years... I'll lower my head.

If I can see you lower your head to me just once

those years won't be a waste.

If you set up a goal that's too big, you'll get tired on the way.

If Daehan Bank leaves your hands and Seo Yoon wins, then I'll get to see...

the sight of you lowering your head to me.

I thought you hated the family of Chairman Choi Dong Sung.

Chairman Choi Dong Sung doesn't exist in this world.

But you're right in front of me.

I have to get rid of the rock I see in front of me first.

I told you... everything you have, everything you accomplish...

I'll take from you.

Carpe diem... enjoy the present.

There will be no tomorrow, Tae Joo.

High officials are siding with Choi Seo Yoon.

It's a connection that's been built over decades.

No matter how much he prepares for it

there is something someone from a ghetto can't have.

At this rate, Daehan Bank will be handed over to them.

We have to convince President Choi Min Jae somehow...

If Choi Min Jae helps Choi Seo Yoon...

Manager Jo, we'll win.

This is Jang Tae Joo.

If you had just followed what I said yesterday...

If I smile, President Choi Min Jae will end up crying.

Schedule a breakfast meeting with the Group advisers.

I'll prepare a banquet for the officials

from the Financial Supervisory Service and the Finance Committee.

You'll also meet with the Senior Secretary at the reception hall of the Blue House.

I sent documents on Ocean Capital's speculative investment to the citizen's groups.

Protests will be held, too.

Director Park.

I really appreciated the chairman that day from a long time ago.

The department stores are for Eun Jung.

Father.

But now, there is a bit of resentment towards him.

If he cared about my daughter, he should have let her leave Won Jae and this house.

When this is over, ma'am...

please take back the department stores. I'll help you.

Director Park.

Please let me take her away from Won Jae and go back home with my daughter.

I've served Chairman Choi Dong Sung and you for over 40 years.

People from my hometown, my friends, had many job requests

but I never brought one up.

This is the first time I'm asking you for a favor, ma'am.

Bank Chairman Lee Se Hyung and Vice Minister Min Ho Jin

are leading the sale of Daehan Bank.

I'll get in touch with Chairman Lee Se Hyung.

- For Vice Minister Min Ho Jin... - The Dubai project is important to you.

Don't worry about this, Min Jae.

Chairman Lee Se Hyung is from my father's hometown.

The families are friends, too.

When I get the shares from Daehan Bank

you'll be farther away from the chairman's office of Sung Jin Group.

We need to stop Tae Joo from getting closer to the chairman's office of Sung Jin Group.

I've received a lot from Tae Joo.

I won this time.

I won again this time.

Why is the horseman butting in?

You ate a lot at the Blue House banquets, didn't you?

Now you'll eat rice with beans in prison.

I want to return the favor to Tae Joo.

Chairman Lee Se Hyung is under investigation for malpractice.

I'll meet with the prosecutor in charge.

He worked hard for the development of the financial industry all his life...

If I help him avoid an indictment, he'll help us.

Because we live in this world together.

The proposal deadline for the purchase of Daehan Bank is in two days.

Vice Minister, banks are the foundation of the industrial development.

Schilde Bank of Manhattan has 200 years of history from the railway industry to the oil industry.

I'm sure Daehan Bank will have a lot to learn from that history.

Yes.

I got the list of members in the takeover evaluation committee.

Schedule a dinner for tonight. I'll invite them to the reception hall.

Seventy six members of citizen's groups will hold a protest

against selling Daehan Bank to a foreign company in front of Gwanghwamun tonight.

The labor union of Daehan Bank went on strike today.

Well, it's nice in Seoul but it's raining in Wellington.

Let me just use 2.7 billion dollars.

On the day of Daehan Bank purchase, I'll come with my seal to get my Sung Jin Cement shares.

I got the list of members on the takeover committee.

I'm not chasing the sparrows, so what's the use of meeting the scarecrows?

The one behind the curtain will help us.

The ones who submitted the takeover proposal of Daehan Bank...

are Schilde Bank of Manhattan and the private equity firm Ocean Capital based in Wellington.

The preferred bidder will be announced tomorrow morning.

We put down 3.2 billion dollars. They put down 2.7 billion dollars.

We're far ahead for the price.

We're also better on non-price elements, too.

You took care of the takeover committee...

and I tore up the indictment paper on Chairman Lee Se Hyung.

We won on the chessboard that Tae Joo made.

Executive Director, I'll prepare for the chairman inauguration ceremony.

I have to do something before the inauguration.

I'll send Eun Jung to you, Director Park.

When Tae Joo was in high school, the house owner worked at a bank.

He checked the meter several times a day, saying they were using too much water.

If that owner still works at the bank, I hope Tae Joo fires him.

It's tiramisu...

I used to tell her what I wanted to eat

but now I'm that older, I'm curious about what my wife wants.

So I called her and she told me to get this.

'Wife'. That sounds nice.

'Wife'.

But the air is not good.

Our bidding price is lower...

The announcement is tomorrow. Managing Director Jang must be thinking of something.

For me, I don't think when I'm with Tae Joo.

Tae Joo does the thinking, and I just do what he tells me to do.

Wow, I knew Tae Joo would get rich, but I didn't know he'd buy a bank.

Real wealth is thinking that what you have is enough.

What's the use of having 10 billion?

If he envies someone with 20 billion, then he's poor.

Is life about checking the amount in a bank book until you're at your deathbed?

After prison, everyone becomes a philosopher for three days.

- But you are... - She's been like that for months now.

Well well... Managing Director Jang wants a celebratory party if we win tomorrow.

Where should we hold it?

If he owns Sung Jin Group, will my Tae Joo be satisfied?

The ones who submitted the takeover proposal of Daehan Bank are

Schilde Bank of Manhattan and the private equity firm Ocean Capital.

After reviewing the submitted prices and non-price elements from both proposals

the one that will take over Daehan Bank is

the private equity firm Ocean Capital based in Wellington, New Zealand.

You should at least say goodbye to President Choi Min Jae.

The real power in deciding the sale of Daehan Bank

is known to be Jung Byung Gook

ex-Chairman of Daehan Bank and the committee chair of the presidential financial restructuring.

This is Choi Min Jae...

I kept my promise.

I said I'd give you a chance to apologize to me.

Yoo Jin.

I asked you if you had to endure the nine years with me.

The nine years I spent with you...

is a time of embarrassment for me.

You were embarrassed for the nine years you spent with me.

So I thought I'd be upset if you smiled for the time you won't spend with me.

I'll help you get through that time without me, too.

Take care, Min Jae.

I'll keep an eye on you.

I'll raise an issue with the selection process of the takeover.

Jang Tae Joo... became the biggest shareholder of Sung Jin Group.

Managing Director Jang... when my relatives got a job at Sung Jin Group

we congratulated them on holidays.

But now, you're the biggest shareholder of Sung Jin Group.

A friend of mine climbs mountains...

he says it's more dangerous on the way down than on the way up.

Is it the Himalayas? I hear a lot of people die on the way down from there.

Let's secure the exit road.

Are you turning stocks into cash, or...

are you selling the affiliated companies?

I'm going to stay here.

Choi Seo Yoon went to Seol Hee and told her this...

That this is the eye of a typhoon.

Once you're inside, you can't go out.

To get out, you have to go through the typhoon again.

I'm not getting out.

I'll bring Seol Hee to the eye of the typhoon.

I'm going to push Choi Seo Yoon outside.

Our little princess, she'll have a tough time with the rain and wind.

I told them not to give me any papers to sign for today.

The one who's leaving shouldn't leave his shit behind.

The drifter warrior became the king.

The prince is setting the table and the princess is washing the dishes.

Tae Joo...

let's leave Father's portrait alone.

Sure.

It'd be nice if you gave me a chance

to contribute to the development of Sung Jin Group.

Did you finish reviewing the long-term development plan of Sung Jin Group?

This happened... because you tried to eat everything by yourself.

I won't eat everything by myself, Won Jae.

You be the chairman.

There are a lot of empty rooms here, so let's make another chairman's office.

Let's be co-chairmen.

If word gets out that the son-in-law wrapped up the family and ate it...

would the executives trust me?

Tae Joo!

You have a legitimate reason as the first son.

And I have the weapon of the shares.

Let's eat together.

Leave your bust sculpture in the lobby as is.

Let's just put my bust sculpture next to it.

You take care of the external duties

and I'll work on the internal business.

Left hand, right hand.

It's perfect.

Let's write a confirmation.

Let's get it notarized... and let's nail it down with the law...

about you and I becoming co-chairmen.

Tae Joo!

I'm going to get the shipbuilding business to be one of the top in the world.

Go ahead. You're the first son.

Tae Joo!

I'm going to put the future of Sung Jin Group in the electronics business!

Go ahead. You're the chairman.

After the presidential election, people from the opposition will say...

'How will we get through five long years?'

That time passes quickly and the next presidential election will come up.

There is no pain in the world that does not end.

Jang Tae Joo's era has begun in Sung Jin Group.

It will end some day.

I wanted to remove Jang Tae Joo's bed from my room.

I'll have to wait a few more years.

Executive Director...

I'm sorry, Director Park...

for making you wait a few more years before you can take Eun Jung.

That worked out well.

While you're a co-chairman, secure your stake.

Attach Distribution and Parcel Service to the department stores.

Eun Jung, for the development of Sung Jin Group as a whole...

Won Jae, the family gets flipped upside down at least once a year.

You can't hang on to that seat for long.

Let's take our portion before then.

Eun Jung, how did you turn out to be this way?

Do you know why there are no clocks in the department store?

You don't know why there are no windows in the department store either, do you?

It's so the women inside

won't know what time it is, if it's raining, or if it's dark out.

The inside of the department store is different from the outside world...

it's luxurious and warm.

Women... come to the department store when they don't like themselves.

'Would I like myself if I wore a brand name dress?'

'Would I like myself holding a brand name bag?'

Me, not being able to leave you, who came into our bed smelling like woman's perfume...

Eun Jung.

I don't like myself either.

If I became the president of the department store...

if I became the wife of the Sung Jin Group chairman...

would I like myself?

That's how I got this far.

Eun Jung.

I'm sorry, I'll be good to you.

I heard a lot with my ears.

Now I want to see it with my eyes, Won Jae.

Min Jae let me know...

that you only have drinks to celebrate.

Giving Won Jae the co-chairman seat...

and promising Dong Hui to take care of Sung Jin Auto's debt...

The ones who were looking at you like a bug when you came into this house

are now standing beside you.

Congratulations.

Do people respect their boss because they like him?

They lower their heads because they get paid.

Thanks for the congratulations.

I didn't think it would be hard...

even if I married you for the billion dollars.

Presidents, executives... and the friendly shareholders...

I thought I could make you leave this room any time I wanted to.

I thought you'd be easy.

Reflection is something you do on your own.

The hungry fox who went to the vineyard filled himself up with grapes.

But it's too bad. He's too full to escape the wire net.

It's one of the two.

Either he lives his whole life eating grapes in the vineyard...

or he starves himself for a few days, gets skinny, and leaves the vineyard.

If he leaves the vineyard, I'm thought about throwing him a few grapes over the wire net.

The largest shareholder and the co-chairman...

you wouldn't want to leave those behind.

What can we do? It looks like we'll be sharing the same room for a few more years.

Is this also something to celebrate?

Continue with growing the bio-tech industry.

Until I get there.

Sure.

Continue with the investment plan in BRICs.

Until I get there.

Sure.

Let me ask you for a favor, too.

You turn the light off tonight.

Tae Joo, thank you for taking care of the Auto debt.

When the new cars are released, I'll give the second car to you.

He's giving me the first one.

This time, and in the future, too.

New cars are dangerous. They're prone to breakdowns and accidents.

Be careful driving.

Tae Joo, Egypt is ordering oil tankers. Wow, it's a big order.

They're ordering ten! Ten of them!

I'll go get their signature.

I left Shipbuilding to you.

Tae Joo, thank you for funding the department store expansion.

For a new department store for foreign visitors in Jeju Island...

Please send me the papers. I'll give you the amount you want on the day you need it.

Dong Hui, let's have lunch today.

When you come, bring a lawyer with you.

Someone specializing in divorce.

Why? Is someone getting a divorce?

I'm getting a divorce.

I want to eat the grapes, and I don't want to leave the Group.

What could I do? I should at least leave your room.

Jang Tae Joo, our marriage is...

I'll give you enough alimony. Don't worry.

Tae Joo, if you get a divorce with Seo Yoon...

you'll have no ties to our family.

You and I are co-chairmen.

And with you, we'll work on the Chemical joint venture for at least 10 years.

I promised you that I'd build a condo next to your golf courses

so the construction will take at least four to five years.

We are not strangers.

I'll pay whatever fee he wants, so bring someone who works fast.

We can't get a divorce.

I didn't think you'd be the type to hold onto the husband's pants.

You're the biggest shareholder of Sung Jin Group and the co-chairman.

Our divorce means that you'll leave this house with Sung Jin Group in your hands.

I won't let you!

Let's think of it in a positive light.

Kick out the jerk you don't want to see

and you get to study all you want.

Everyone has what they want in their hands.

Jang Tae Joo, let's talk about this.

Let's go through the lawyers.

Please eat.

Sell the empty lot in Sangam-dong.

That should be enough for Choi Seo Yoon's alimony.

Since there is no attributable cause, she can't request a division of assets.

Your divorce means Sung Jin Group will fall into your hands.

That family won't just stand aside...

I put some coins in their hands.

They're too busy counting that.

If I just give Choi Won Jae a business card saying 'Sung Jin Group Chairman'

he'll be the scarecrow chasing away swallows for me for 10 to 20 years.

Eun Jung, this is wrong. Father started Sung Jin Group with his bare hands.

I can't let Seo Yoon get a divorce just for a business card!

I won't stand to see Jang Tae Joo swallowing Sung Jin Group!

If Seo Yoon got to the chairman's seat

would she have given you that business card?

For Jung Yoon... she'll sit down with a pat on the shoulder from Dong Hui.

Dong Hui, Sung Jin Group is my family and my family is Sung Jin Group.

If Seo Yoon and Tae Joo get a divorce

Sung Jin Group will be handed over to the Jang family.

No! My Dad worked so hard to build this.

Jung Yoon, Seo Yoon only gave you the golf courses.

The one who built you the condo is Tae Joo.

Jung Yoon, let's not look back.

Just walk forward with me.

Choi Seo Yoon, Choi Won Jae, Choi Jung Yoon

Park Eun Jung, Sohn Dong Hui...

they don't sit at the dining table together because they're family.

It's because their feed keeps getting passed around on the dining table.

While they are eating the feed I threw at them

I just need to take Choi Seo Yoon out of it.

Call Seol Hee. I want to have dinner with her.

If you get a divorce now, Sung Jin Group will go into the hands of Jang Tae Joo.

You'll only remain as a shareholder of Sung Jin Group.

You have to convince the family members. You need their help.

Family?

Won Jae, Eun Jung... Jung Yoon, Dong Hui...

they're picking up the bundles of money that Jang Tae Joo threw at them.

Won Jae... I remember...

when I was working at the college, he called me several times a day.

He asked about work and asked for help, too.

But now...

I trusted you as my little sister.

I asked for advice when I was having a tough time

and I spilled all my worries.

The back of my head still hurts.

You know about Eun Jung.

I listened to all her complaints when Won Jae was causing trouble.

We drank until dawn so many times.

But now...

I was disappointed, too.

Between you and me, I thought you would confirm with me before you made a move.

Min Ho, Jae Ho, and Sang Ho...

ever since they were little, Jung Yoon asked me to check on their studies

so I went to her house at least every other day.

When Jung Yoon was hospitalized for appendicitis...

I was the one who stayed in her room for a week.

You'll grow Sung Jin Group and divide it up for us, is that it?

Why would you look at us like idiots who can't even handle what we have?

When Dong Hui was a prosecutor, Dad asked me...

so I took care of the house and the tuition for his six siblings.

But now...

He asked me to write down the names of those who are pressing me from above.

Don't worry. I'll leave your name out.

I'll request an injunction on the cancellation of the joint voting rights from the divorce.

Lawsuits, legal battles... it'll take a few years.

Executive Director!

This library... the chairman's office of Sung Jin Group...

everything that Dad built... fell into the hands of Jang Tae Joo...

because of me.

Find out what the President of Egypt likes...

What's the use of telling you to expand the shipyard dock ten times?

When you can't do it right even once.

Send me the plan by the end of this month.

Yes, sir.

There is a test drive of the armored car developed by Sung Jin Heavy Industry

in partnership with the Defense Ministry. If you'd please attend...

When do I have time to watch an armored car shooting a bullet?

Let's adjust the bidding price for the oil tankers.

It's a project that Chairman Choi Dong Sung started 15 years ago.

He requested a technology transfer from the U.S. and the U.K.

but he was rejected as a defense secret

so Chairman Choi Dong Sung went to Israel three times

and succeeded in getting the technology.

Please come and encourage the researchers.

Even after Chairman Choi Dong Sung passed away

they went through hardships for many years and finally made it happen.

Thank you.

To protect my country, how could I just use guns and swords?

We were trying to make armored cars...

they were trying to sell theirs, so they wouldn't give us the technology.

Dong Sung and I went to Israel and begged the prime minister, holding onto his pants.

Even women go to the military in that country.

When I look back at my life, I feel sick...

but the oil tankers that I made are still floating on the ocean

and the furnaces I made still have boiling iron...

and the armored cars that Dong Sung and I made are protecting my country.

I think there was a little part in my life that was useful.

The kids are doing well?

Dong Hui lives in the office to develop new cars, leaving the president's office empty.

Jung Yoon is even picking the wallpaper for the condo.

My wife is focused on growing the department store

so she doesn't even care about raising Myung Hoon.

And Seo Yoon's getting a divorce.

Tae Joo and I are co-chairmen...

The Group that Dong Sung built...

are you saying that Jang Tae Joo is putting it in his stomach?

Uncle, we're co-chairmen...

You're the first son you idiot!

You're the first son of my brother Choi Dong Sung!

What am I supposed to do?

When Seo Yoon was in charge, she wouldn't even let me sign the papers.

When Min Jae was Chairman, I was pushed out to be the president of Parcel Service...

Let's go! Let's go to the company!

Uncle.

I'll tear down the prison wall and get out...

I'll throw out Jang Tae Joo.

With that sin added to me, I'll live here for the rest of my life.

Uncle!

Hey, I heard this when I went to Israel with Dong Sung.

Things are complicated in that country, too.

There are 12 parties in that country. They fight every day.

But when the Arabs attack them, they all come together to defend themselves.

That's family!

Uncle, I really want to keep my bust sculpture

next to my father's in the lobby for a long time.

Do it with your own effort, dammit.

Don't ride on Tae Joo's back and dance like sesame seeds.

My nephew Won Jae!

Yes.

My brother's first son Won Jae!

Yes.

Dong Sung gave his life for Sung Jin Group.

Don't hand over your father's life to Jang Tae Joo.

I'm asking you, dammit!

Sung Jae is doing labor in a woodworking shop.

It gets stuffy just staying inside.

Won Jae and other family members turned their backs.

The husband sharing your room handed you the divorce papers with his signature on it.

How will you relieve your frustration?

Since you saw Sung Jae and laughed with him, do you feel better now?

Uncle is taking care of his meals and exercise in the same room...

so he says not to worry.

I will relay my little brother's request.

'Take care of yourself, Ms. Han Jung Hee.'

I see you take after me.

Over 30 years ago, I had your eyes...

looking at Choi Dong Sung.

What will you save?

Sung Jin Group left you...

and your family became your enemy.

Seo Yoon, I know how...

to keep Jang Tae Joo from leaving your side.

Seduce him, Seo Yoon.

You're pretty. Your body and your face.

What man would refuse that?

Ms. Han Jung Hee.

Choi Dong Sung didn't refuse me either.

His breathing was like the scream of an animal to me.

His touches gave me goosebumps like the tongue of a snake.

I endured it... for 27 years.

Why don't you try it too, Seo Yoon?

You're going to hell, Ms. Han Jung Hee.

Of course I should...

to meet Choi Dong Sung.

How will he endure it?

For a kid who never even held a nail... Prison and the woodworking shop...

Sung Jae.

I'll stay alive.

Until my baby comes back into my arms, I'll stay alive... Sung Jae.

Ma'am.

I showed the director business card to my wife.

She laughed at me.

She said I was a director when we got married, and I'm still a director.

I was the director of a club back then, now I'm the director of Sung Jin Cement.

I don't switch to Riverside Road just because Olympic Road is jammed.

I'll only get there late, trying to go faster and switching from this to that.

Look at Oh Sang Goo. He switched the ships and he got laid off this time.

Director Jo, who trusted Tae Joo and ran with him, succeeded!

Compared to your success, it's embarrassing.

You'll be the wife of Sung Jin Group's chairman.

I'm divorcing Choi Seo Yoon.

The papers will be complete in a few days.

I bought a house in Sungbuk-dong.

You can take care of the repairs and the interior.

I'll mow the lawn like I promised.

- Tae Joo... - I told you.

I'll wipe the blood off your hands for the rest of my life.

Now now, since we ate

let's go have some soju. There is a new chicken feet place around the corner.

Please go with Choon Ho. We have somewhere to go.

Tae Joo.

With one signature, trillions in investments are approved.

With one word, billions in cash are transferred.

The owner of the department store can change in the middle of dinner.

Even after losing billions

a scolding from the father is the end of it.

The Golden Empire.

Tae Joo.

I went to Father on the day of the shopping mall demolition.

On my way out, I saw the hired demolition guys.

I was going to go back and bring out Father...

but I hesitated.

Maybe the negotiation would go well like Father said...

We could maybe even get back the security deposit.

Then, my family wouldn't need to suffer anymore.

'He'll be okay. I'm sure he'll be fine.'

There was a crackdown that day...

and my father passed away.

Tae Joo.

I wondered...

who was it? The person who ordered a crackdown with a phone call.

The one who took away my father's life with one phone call

and didn't get any punishment for it.

It was Choi Min Jae.

And Choi Seo Yoon was standing next to him.

And behind her was that man.

Chairman Choi Dong Sung was there.

I made up my mind then

that I would sit where that man was sitting.

I kept the promise I made with Father.

Tae Joo, you have to win.

In this world where I have never won...

Tae Joo, try to win at least once.

Jang Bong Ho's son Jang Tae Joo will become the chairman of Sung Jin Group.

Father's sweat in subway stations, construction sites in Yeoido, and in markets...

Mom, I'll bring all that back in money.

Big guys make big money.

Mom, I'll become really big.

Now I'll keep the promise I made with you, Seol Hee.

Until the last day, I'll live with you in this seat.

Yes, Won Jae.

Come home, Tae Joo. Let's have a family meeting.

Ten years ago, when Father was around and I was Vice Chairman, I was really young.

I was just a face as Vice Chairman.

Now that I'm sitting in the chairman's seat

I can see where Sung Jin Group came from and where it's going, too.

I want to do a good job of being the chairman, Seo Yoon.

Won Jae, write down your resolutions in your diary.

We don't need to know them.

Tae Joo, I met with the Group advisers, and my goodness...

Father already had 30-year plan for Electronics.

There are over 7 million-pyung of land secured all over the country

to build plants for Sung Jin's affiliated companies.

Sung Jin Group is the trace of Father's life

and the burden that the Choi family needs to carry for a thousand years to come.

I don't think I can't give that to you, Tae Joo.

Won Jae.

Tae Joo, why would you get a divorce?

Marriage is no big deal.

Share a room even if you don't like her. Share a bed even if you hate her.

Grow on each other and have babies, Tae Joo.

There is no deal that will satisfy everyone.

Just focus on your life.

My life, my dream...

I realized Father created them for me.

Tae Joo, don't get a divorce. Let's be a family.

Won Jae, I never brought up something only to retract it.

Tell me what you want. I'll fill it up more.

Alright, Tae Joo. I won't be the co-chairman.

Won Jae.

Good luck.

Sung Jin Group is not a place where a divorced son-in-law can sit

in the chairman's seat by himself just because he has some shares.

The presidents and the executives... do you think they'll listen to you?

If the institutional investors turn their back on you, Tae Joo...

Won Jae!

I won't be the Sung Jin Group chairman!

I'll be the son of my father! I'll be the first son of this family!

Won Jae, thank you.

But he won't step down.

There are Eun Jung and Dong Hui, too.

- He'll hold whichever hand... - What to do?

Seo Yoon, I agree with Won Jae.

Don't get a divorce, Tae Joo.

Dad.

I worked in Sung Jin Group for 40 years.

The presidents and the executives are my friends and my colleagues.

Eun Jung, I'll use all my power to take away the department stores from you.

Dad!

I just want to see it once...

As my daughter Eun Jung, as the daughter- in-law of Chairman Choi Dong Sung...

and the sister-in-law of Choi Seo Yoon.

Please make the decision I am hoping you'll make.

Otherwise, Eun Jung...

then you'll have to fight me.

I don't really get along with Seo Yoon.

But there is something you didn't see, Tae Joo.

When I was in the hospital after giving birth to Myung Hoon

she came to visit me every day and massaged my swollen arms and legs.

She also got me medicine to reduce the swelling on my face.

Eun Jung.

You don't need to thank me.

If we have to fight, let's fight within the family.

Just the family members.

That's how I feel too.

I'd like for you not to get a divorce.

You can take the condo back.

Jung Yoon.

Jung Yoon!

I want to have the condo...

but I'd hate it more if that man owned Sung Jin Group that my dad built.

I'm sorry, Dong Hui.

I'll summon the shareholders' meeting.

I won't give you the rice cakes you don't want.

I'll be the sole chairman.

Leave the concerns of Sung Jin Group over to me.

Go on a family field trip and have fun.

I started preparations for the shareholders' meeting.

Seo Yoon, you should contact the institutional investors.

I'll talk to the elders in the Industrial Federation and the Employers Federation.

A young fish is muddying up the stream

so the elders will help us, too.

Oh, and a thorough investigation on Ocean Capital's purchase

of Daehan Bank will start soon.

And they'll investigate the procedure of how you gained the shares, too.

Stay in this house. You should block the investigation.

Let's fight within the Choi family...

after getting rid of the trash in the house first.

You're alone, Mr. Jang Tae Joo.

And we're a family.

What to do? I think it'll be wiser to share the room for a few more years.

Tae Joo, don't get a divorce. Let's live together.

And grow Sung Jin Group together, too.

It doesn't matter if you fight with her or argue with her...

let's keep Sung Jin Group in this house and fight over it.

Now I'm going to keep the promise I made with you, Seol Hee.

Until the last day, I'm going to live with you in this seat.

What should I do? I even bought a house in Sungbuk-dong.

There is someone moving into that house already.

I'll send you the divorce papers in a few days, Ms. Choi Seo Yoon.

Jang Tae Joo, please excuse us.

We're going to start a family meeting.
