Let's do it.

The market has good potential. Reviving it won't be difficult either.

Not many people will be convinced.

They will accuse us

of being obsessed with performance and stealing someone else's project.

You don't need to worry about that. What's important is the project itself.

Since Mr. Ma is on a business trip now,

let's prepare materials and make a proposal in advance.

He won't approve it.

Focus on your work first. I'm the one who will convince him.

Why are you so silent, Mr. Cheon?

I feel uneasy about what they think about us.

To top it off, half of Mr. Choi's people have been eliminated.

If we insist on this business,

he would think we're trying to piss him off.

If we focus on the project itself, putting aside office politics,

is it a profitable project or not?

It will be profitable.

Since when did we become afraid of failing even before we started?

EPISODE 12

-Geu-rae. -Yes.

This is not right.

Okay.

I understand why you suggested this,

but it will be difficult.

It might affect our careers that we worked so hard to build.

I'm sorry.

Since Mr. Oh approved it, I won't say anything anymore.

Let's work hard.

Yes, sir.

If something similar to this happens in the future,

I wish you could discuss it with me in advance.

I think I'm close enough to you to expect this from you, Geu-rae.

I'm sorry.

That's fine.

Let's give our best shot.

Yes, sir.

Dong-sik, we should find both domestic firms and buyers in Jordan first.

-Yes, sir -Domestic firms.

They should be able to steadily secure used cars.

First, let me approach major used car dealers

in Incheon, Gunsan, and Busan.

Okay.

Geu-rae, classify the domestic firms by size, then submit it to me.

No, work on that with Mr. Cheon.

Geu-rae doesn't know how to read financial statements yet,

so we can't let him classify things yet.

We will review the firms that lost the previous bidding.

Yes, sir.

Also, where's Mr. Cheon?

If we focus on the project itself, putting aside office politics,

will it be a reasonable project or not?

Since when did we become afraid of failing even before we started?

Why are you sending me

to Sales Team Three?

To give you a chance to work there.

Help them out

and make Sales Team Three successful.

Do you know gum disease?

-Pardon? -Here.

In your opinion,

Do you think it's better to pull out an aching tooth

or leave it as it is?

This is bullshit.

UPDATE YOUR BANKBOOK

Please insert your bankbook.

PLEASE WAIT.

Please take your bankbook.

It's over now.

Young-yi.

You look so happy with your paycheck.

-Excuse me? -You're smiling.

I'm a little bit disappointed.

I didn't know you like money.

What's wrong with that?

I like money. I'll become rich.

-What a relief. -What?

Now you look like a human being.

Hey, are you okay?

It's been dangling for a few days now.

All done.

You're really a human being.

What? Why do you keeping saying "a human being"?

Let's go.

-Hello, I'm back. -Hello.

Why should women wear high heels?

What?

Nothing.

Baek-ki, can give me the consortium data for the Resources Team meeting

and arrange a meeting with Samjung's Consortium Team, too.

Yes, sir.

Hello, this is Hae-jun Kang, Steel Team.

He's a psychopath, but he called me a sociopath.

Having good colleagues depends on chance.

Almost half a year passed since I joined the company.

What I've learned so far is that jerk is a psychopath.

What's wrong with my life?

How can it be like this?

You're blessed with your colleagues.

Should I go back to the fieldwork?

Hello, Mr. Cheon. I'm Seok-yul Han, Textile Team.

Mr. Cheon, I admire you.

You joined Sales Team Three as an experienced deputy manager.

You had great teamwork with Mr. Oh.

After working for Commodity Supplies Team for only a year,

you got promoted to a manager.

Seok-yul Han.

Could you give us a minute?

-Yes. -Geu-rae.

-Yes. -I like your spirit as a newbie,

but you should look around. What do others think about our team?

He's not that good.

But, what's with Geu-rae again?

Whatever.

Gosh.

Geu-rae, do you know

what kind of mistakes you made?

A common mistake that newbies make.

You failed to see the big picture.

You pushed your idea through regardless of office politics.

Being in a company or an organization

is not that easy nor simple.

I apologize.

Make a suggestion that you can handle from an objective point of view.

How much support do you think you can give to this project?

People may think of you as nothing but a freeloader.

I'll work harder.

Harder?

Do you think that will solve the problem?

If things are that simple, who wouldn't want to work hard?

Unbelievable.

I pay my respect to Mr. Oh. He gladly approved

a newbie's idea.

Sales Team Three will do any project they think will be profitable.

Since they already started, they should conclude it and seal it.

Geu-rae is good at concluding things.

Young-yi, you tend to praise Geu-rae a lot.

-Do you like Geu-rae? -What?

I feel hurt. You never compliment on us

Don't you think so, Baek-ki?

Come on, I haven't...

When there was the incident with Mr. Park, IT sales team,

didn't you condemn Baek-ki?

You praised Geu-rae for staying with Mr. Park

but condemned Baek-ki for leaving them alone, right?

Well, at that time...

Right, the issue with Sun-ju Kim of Finance Team as well.

You took Geu-rae's side, didn't you?

Baek-ki begged you not to go,

but you ended up going.

Isn't that right, Baek-ki?

About Mr. Ha.

I advised you to challenge him.

But you took Geu-rae's advice. Nobody asked you to drive that truck.

You even got me to ride it

while you drove like a turtle.

You only listen to Geu-rae, right?

You feel badly hurt, don't you, Baek-ki?

-Geu-rae is... -Stop talking about Geu-rae.

There's a reason

If it were not for him,

who would dare to suggest taking over Mr. Park's used car project in Jordan?

Can you do that, Baek-ki?

Hey, what are you talking about?

Sales Team Three is doing what?

Hey, Mr. Kim. You, Dong-sik!

What's going on?

-Excuse me? -Mr. Park's used car business!

Is Sales Team Three pushing through with that project again?

We're going to give it a try.

What? You're going to give it a try?

Hey!

Even if we're keeping silent, how dare you do it again like a thief?

What? A thief? Resources Team Two can have it.

You, buster!

I'm not saying we want it back, okay?

Everyone knows it's an appealing project.

Is there anyone who doesn't know that? Aren't we doing it because we don't know?

We started that project but we didn't proceed further.

You have no conscience or manners.

Come one. It's about work. What about conscience or manners?

Mr. Kim, you shouldn't be like this.

What can we expect from him?

What else could he learn from his boss who has no business ethics?

No business ethics? Who are you referring to?

You hid everything and blamed our team.

Now you're talking about business ethics?

You, bastard! Are you out of your mind?

Come on.

Hey, Dong-sik Kim. You think this is right?

The one who judged if this is right is Mr. Oh.

The Resources Team lied. You should ask yourself

whether you're eligible for asking such a question.

What, you bastard! He's insane!

Let me go, jerk!

Hey, do you think Mr. Ma will approve this?

Do you think he will?

-What if he approves? -You bastard.

What the heck are you doing?

Geu-rae.

Lift your head. Did you do anything wrong?

We just want to work.

As I assumed,

the firms disqualified in the first round were not good enough.

Well, all of them.

They're not good enough in terms of their size or anything else.

Okay, I got it.

What about the firms you reviewed, Mr. Cheon?

I can't decide only with documents. I think I'll have to go and visit them.

Okay. How long do you think it will take?

Five days, sir.

Make it three days. Dong-sik, accompany him.

Keep me updated even if it's a rough draft.

Yes, sir.

Would it be better if I divide the areas

with Mr. Cheon?

One of us should drive while the other is working.

All right. You better team up.

Geu-rae, arrange the car for us.

Yes, sir.

Make a suggestion that you can handle from an objective point of view.

How much do you think you can support the team working on this project?

Is Mr. Choi in his office?

Yes, please wait a second.

Yes, hello.

You're looking good.

How do you feel working in Sales Team Three again?

Do you like working there?

Sales Team Three is trying

to work on Mr. Park's Jordan project.

So what?

I don't know what to do.

What are you talking about?

Your team is pursuing a profit.

But you don't know what to do?

Why are you asking me that?

As a team member, you should work hard.

That's why I sent you there.

Right?

Jeez.

Life is hard.

It's hard.

Mr. Cheon, I'm going home.

I'll pick you up at your place at 7:00 a.m. tomorrow.

What's wrong with you?

You'll get your neck hurt.

Well, I think I made a mistake.

I made a suggestion that I can't take responsibility for.

I'm so embarrassed.

You're ridiculous.

You know what's really embarrassing?

Suggestion?

Responsibility?

Hey!

You're the one who suggested doing this.

I didn't suggest it.

I let you have your own way, and you're getting spoiled.

I'm sorry.

Geu-rae!

Your efforts are exceptional in quantity and quality, Geu-rae.

What you're going to do from now on

is keep reading this material until you get fully informed, okay?

As long as you follow my instructions, you've done your part.

That's what a newbie does.

Can't you make it 100 percent?

Then, make it only 80 percent.

If you try to make it 120 percent, you're endangering the whole team.

Brat.

-Where are you going? -Get some water.

I see, Captain Jang. You're going to drink water?

Please give me a glass of water, Captain Jang.

Run, dude!

What?

Don't make me repeat it.

Our team got involved in the consortium for the Mexico coal mining

that Samjung Trading Company and our Steel Team have been working on.

We're going to have a joint meeting with the Steel Team and Samjung.

Also, we may have a dispute

over the exporting rights with Samjung, so we'd better be prepared.

Is Woo-hyun Shin in charge?

I heard he's meticulous.

Sure, he's exceptionally good.

He's been selected as Trading Man of the Year twice at his age.

Right, he's outstanding.

He joined Samjung as the youngest employee.

He's also the youngest employee to be promoted to manager.

He's won the 150 million dollar contracts for five consecutive years.

He was the youngest manager of a foreign branch. He's one of the best.

I heard he's got even his own fan club.

I'm a member.

Darn it.

Aren't I more handsome?

Young-yi is speechless.

She'll feel pressure to have a consortium with a competitor.

She's still a newbie.

I got it. Bye.

Hello, I'm here for the presentation preparations.

Hello, Baek-ki. Long time no see.

YOUNG-YI AN SAMJUNG TRADING COMPANY

Young-yi.

It's not right to leave like this.

Bye, sir.

Hey, Captain Jang.

What time is it in Jordan? Call Mr. Cho over there.

Please, sir.

Call him.

AMMAN, JORDAN

Hello, sir.

I heard you got promoted to deputy head. Congratulations.

Right, the rumor already spread here.

I made some excuses.

We need to know what's going on there.

Send me the data about the firms involved.

Yes, sir. By the way,

I bet this project is too good to abandon.

I'm sure of it.

I think it's a great idea for you to resume the project.

But this scandal

can get out of hand.

I know.

Our headquarters will convince the Jordanian government.

Okay, thanks. Bye.

Did Dong-sik send you some materials?

He will after he finishes the visit.

Keep them updated so that we can have a meeting soon.

Yes, sir.

Where are they today?

They are probably in Gunsan.

-Goodbye. -Let me contact you later.

Thank you.

This is not easy.

Without a distribution center, there are only a bunch of small-sized firms.

We need a firm with the right size.

Such a firm wouldn't want to work with a conglomerate.

That's not always true.

Since we can provide the compartments, they find it easy to create a package.

Take this list to the customs office and see if there are smugglers.

Okay.

We have many places to go.

Let's go.

Where's the next one?

-No, I'm fine. -Let me drive.

Wrap up things and send them. Geu-rae will take care of the rest.

Do you think he can do well?

We've got to trust him.

Aren't you tired? Take turns.

No. I'm fine for now.

Hello, Mr. Oh.

-We secured a list of companies. -All right.

What about those in Jordan?

Yes, you can e-mail me.

-You have my business card, right? -That's great.

There shouldn't be any cost changes. The company information is all correct?

I guess Mr. Cho will have a hard time.

Yes, right.

If you want to complete it, please send it by this week.

-We need to decide within days. -We're really running out of time.

Then, let me call you again when I get back to Seoul.

I have to organize things as soon as I get back.

Bye.

We have two hours before checkout. Shall we take a nap?

Yes, let's do that.

Sir.

Yes?

You don't like this project, do you?

Neither do you.

Still, I don't think we won't make it.

I know how you feel.

You want to support Mr. Oh

as much as he wants, right?

I guess this company is the best in Jordan.

The financial statements look good. The performance is great.

They even re-exported the products to their neighboring countries.

They built up a good market, too.

-Can you understand it? -Roughly, yes.

Except for the financial statements.

Financial statements are everything. How can you count them out, Captain Jang?

Skim through it first.

Then, read it again from the beginning.

When you feel like numbers pop up,

look at them by category.

Yes.

Numbers should pop up.

You should recognize the amount and convert the currency to dollars.

Gosh, you need all the help that you can get.

You're teaching him one by one?

I know.

Young-yi should have joined us.

I'm wondering if Seok-ho is doing well.

Mr. Ma is coming tomorrow, right?

Yes.

Do you think you can make it?

Well, I should do my best, at least.

Jeez.

What an optimistic deputy head.

You're right.

Even if your business doesn't get an approval, it's not a big deal.

The problem lies somewhere else.

This may cause a crack

in Sales Team Three's great teamwork.

Why are you silent?

I'm a daredevil, like the leopard

of the Snows of Kilimanjaro.

I come like the wind...

What's this barking sound?

It's time for my medication.

AUDIT REPORT ON FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Numbers should pop up.

You should recognize the amount and convert the currency to dollars.

I need to get familiar with the shapes first. Numbers, next.

Get familiar with the shapes.

Then, keep studying their gaps and weak points.

Like in the game of baduk.

I need to establish an obvious framework at a glance.

By the way,

have I succeed in baduk?

In order to win this game,

can I apply the rules of the game which I failed to win?

Can I do that?

-Welcome back. -Hello.

-Where's Mr. Oh? -He'll be here soon.

-Hello, you're back. -Yes, hello.

You must be tired.

You may want to get off work now,

-but I need to receive a briefing first. -Sure.

There are many qualified, aggressive companies out there.

Let's go. Get your stuff.

-Did you take your medicine? -Yes.

Jeez.

You're going to sit up all night for at least three days.

Hopefully, their hard work won't be all in vain.

Well...

If there are many candidates...

We're having a meeting again.

We'll sort them out and...

First, we review the initial list together

that Mr. Cheon and Mr. Kim made.

We check whether they're able to supply products throughout a year

and whether they maintain sound financing.

Here's your coffee.

We also check thoroughly whether their vision is realistic

and compatible with ours.

I was about to call.

I'm going to call other teams as well.

Captain Jang.

Don't you have anything else other than coffee, Captain Jang?

I forgot to introduce him. He's Captain Jang.

A short break.

All of them are laughing, but inside they're not.

The painful truth, oozing out of an uncomfortable atmosphere,

is dangerously revealing itself

amid the awkward laughing.

Hey, Sang-sik Oh.

Are you crazy?

-Are you out of your mind? -Sir, this is...

Right, I'm talking about that.

Let's say someone died after choking on a rice cake.

You, right beside him, picked up the rice cake and ate it.

Did you really have to pick it up and eat it?

This business must be continued, even if not by our hands.

Why are you the one who decides that?

You disclosed the company corruption, resulting in the shakeup.

You also made teams suspect each other.

But you still want to take over this project?

That's why I don't like you, you self-centered bastard.

Stop it right away.

Please take a look at the materials that we prepared, sir.

Hey.

You, really...

Do you really think Mr. Choi will approve this?

Why stop him?

What?

It's a profitable project. Why would you stop him?

You're the senior manager of the Sales Team at One International.

Can't you understand the situation?

Sir.

Let's work hard.

You must be happy, Sang-sik.

As you wished,

you'll be in the spotlight standing in front of everyone.

-What? -We plan to hold

a briefing for your proposal.

Well, sir...

All the executives including Mr. Choi

will attend the briefing session to see your presentation.

It's a good opportunity for you to get fair assessment.

What presentation? This is nothing but a business item.

Nothing but a business item?

You really think this is nothing but a business item?

What? You made such a fuss.

But once we give you the green light, you're suddenly scared?

No way.

You're not that type of person, Sang-sik.

What's wrong? You were so confident, then what?

Prepare a comprehensive presentation ready by this week.

This is a very difficult decision for Mr. Choi to make.

If he said no, you would accuse him of mixing personal emotions.

Still, he can't say yes right away to a project that shouldn't be allowed.

That's why we need some fair assessment.

Sir.

Since things are getting serious, we need to be prepared.

Let's make presentation slides.

-Sir... -I know what you're going to say.

Not enough time, too much pressure.

Above all, I know what Mr. Choi is thinking.

Nonetheless, so what?

Why? Should we stop here?

No, we can't do that.

We've come this far. We should at least give it a try.

Mr. Cheon.

Like you said.

Captain Jang. I don't need your opinion.

Summarize all the materials that we've covered.

Identify the sources clearly.

Calculate the prices roughly about candidate companies.

The most important thing

is to build a strategy to convince all the attendees.

It would take one month.

-You make the slides, Mr. Kim. -Yes.

You'll write a speech and make a presentation, won't you?

Sure, I will. Mr. Cheon.

Prepare a rehearsal and contact the Jordan branch.

Set up a video conference with Mr. Kim, the vice president in Jordan.

Let's start.

Sales Team Three is experiencing a new sort of tension.

We set up things again. Our work has begun.

What? The plane has been delayed?

Jeez. How much longer do you stay there?

Wait, don't we have a meeting with Samjung Trading Company at five?

Yes.

Jeez, this drives me crazy. I got it.

We'll take care of today's meeting. Join us as soon as you come back.

Bye.

-Young-yi An. -Yes.

Mr. Ha won't make it to the meeting.

Since you prepared the Samjung export project with Mr. Ha,

you can handle it, right?

I'm not yet...

There's no other way. Consider it as your first tee shot.

Don't feel pressured. Just do your job.

I'm Woo-hyun Shin. Nice to meet you.

I'm Hee-seok Jung, manager of Resources Team Two.

You know Hae-jun and Baek-ki from Steel Team, don't you?

-Hello. -Hello.

Please sit down.

Right, here's our newcomer Young-yi.

Sung-jun couldn't make it today.

Hello.

Right, yes. Hello.

Okay, then. Let's start the meeting.

Since this consortium is a good chance for us to expand the business

to resources-related area,

we'll give you our full support along with various products.

Since our resources team joined the consortium later,

we believe there should be some change in the contract.

Before getting to the point, we would like to discuss it first.

Well, it could be rather complicated in many ways.

I hope we'll resolve it smoothly. Young-yi?

Yes.

It's about the exporting rights.

Since our team joined the consortium, the shareholding ratio has been changed.

However, we have only limited exporting rights proportional to the previous share.

We would like to review that matter.

It's Samjung that won the exclusive contract.

We did geological research and exploration.

You're right.

Geological research and exploration were done by Samjung.

However, our plant and steel teams were involved in planning the mine lot

at the early stage. Our role was not minor at all.

We already agreed on the exporting rights

in the beginning stage of contract.

The agreement on the exporting rights was made

before our Resources Team joined the consortium.

Please keep in mind

One International joined the consortium due to lack of Samjung's skills.

We would like to ask you

to hand over your right over the Southeast Asia and domestic market.

Okay.

Let me consider it.

All right, next. Our Steel Team will state our opinion.

We have roughly two approaches towards this business.

One approach is to supply subsidiary steel materials,

when we build coal mining plants.

The second approach is after development and procurement,

we'll deal with PCI coals through the selling right...

-Thank you. -Thank you.

We're going to hold the next meeting at Samjung Trading Company.

Okay. I'll see you later then.

Yes.

-You did a good job. -You, too.

Great.

See me for a minute. Woo-hyun Shin.

See me for a minute. Woo-hyun Shin.

Sir.

Have a seat.

It won't be long. I need to leave soon to have a meeting with a buyer.

I wouldn't have been that embarrassed if you had let me know in advance.

When I saw you in the lobby of One International,

I thought you might have been working for One International.

I didn't know you were part of the Resource Team.

I'm sorry.

What about your career? Do you enjoy working there?

Yes, sir.

Do you enjoy your work?

Yes, sir.

Okay, that's great.

It'll be like today from now on.

It would be a work-related meeting.

I don't know.

I still feel uncomfortable when I see you, sir.

Young-yi.

Today,

you did a good job.

I'm not sure who trained you,

but he did a great job.

I'm not sure who trained you,

but he did a great job.

-Bye. -Bye.

You did a great job.

Buyers from China or the Middle East don't think a female can be in charge.

From now on, when you sit with guys at a meeting,

-make sure to sit in the middle. -Yes.

Sir.

Thank you.

Young-yi.

Are you leaving for the day?

No.

Are you leaving?

Yes.

-I'll get going. -Yes.

Baek-ki.

Can I have a drink with you?

Why are you coming home so late these days?

Because I have so much work to do.

I cleaned up.

I didn't throw anything away.

Find your stuff as best as you can.

I said I would clean up.

Okay then.

I think Mom put it upside down.

Hey, it's me.

You want to go to a movie?

One of my acquaintances is working in the movie industry.

You can't make it?

Okay, I got it. Let's have a drink later.

Hello, it's me. Yes.

I have tickets for a movie premiere.

It's at 7:00 p.m. You can't make it?

Nine o'clock? Wait a second.

Hello, Mr. Song.

I'm the one who called you yesterday.

I won the event.

Can I change my tickets to those for 9:00 p.m.?

You can't? How come you can't?

I worked for a PR team at a conglomerate.

You really don't know how to promote an event.

Yes. Both of the two tickets.

Yes.

Yes.

Okay. A seven, zero, four.

Eight, five, three, one.

Seven, zero, four, eight, five, three, one. Thank you, bye.

Don't you have anything else? 7048531.

Don't you? 7048531.

I realized the worst thing about work.

You're obliged to see a jerk everyday you don't want to see.

Because he's told so many subtle lies and made so many mistakes,

if I bring them up, it would only make me look mean.

But his bosses like him even more.

And he takes all the credit

for what I've done.

That bastard.

Do you want to fight with him?

How can a newbie fight?

Don't you think you should wait and see?

Well...

A fight should start from patience.

What if your opponent is strong?

He's strong?

He's only a deputy manager. He can't be that strong.

You really don't know how to fight.

A fight should start from a preemptive attack.

Like you punched me last time.

I'm all ready to quit. That's the end of it.

This is a yes or no decision!

-Are you all right? -What?

Right, yes.

You can drink a lot.

Sales Team Three seems to stay up all night these days.

Yes. We just finished making the presentation slides.

Then, it's time to write a speech and run a rehearsal.

The real game starts now.

Yes.

That's right.

-The real game starts now. -Will you give a gesture here?

No way. Conservative executives may think I'm exaggerating.

Sales Team Three. Here we go.

In regard to the outline and prospect of the Jordan business,

Mr. Oh is running a rehearsal.

I'm going to give you the business report.

-Please raise your voice a little bit. -Okay, I got it.

The reason why we targeted at Jordan is...

According to his rehearsal, Mr. Kim switched the placement

of the slides,

and terms were added, deleted, or edited.

The objective of our business is...

We played the rehearsal video,

checked on the methods of his expression and improper breathing.

We tried to make a strategy which can convince everyone.

Wait. Sorry.

Since it neighbors Saudi Arabia and Iraq, we can advance

to the Middle East market. Target acquired.

However,

I can't stop feeling uneasy.

Advance to a major market.

Through resale...

What's wrong?

Let's eat first.

Reasons to advance to Jordan.

It neighbors Saudi Arabia and Iraq, two major Middle East markets.

Due to its small domestic market, the resale market...

Why can't I speak eloquently?

What's wrong?

You were so confident, then what?

Am I

really confident?

See, I knew it!

Why aren't you eating?

What about you, sir?

You said you had a lunch appointment.

Is there something troubling you?

You didn't look satisfied.

I don't think I can convince people with this.

Do you think it's is convincing?

You feel uneasy too?

Yes.

Somehow, I feel uneasy too.

But I don't think it matters.

We've prepared a lot so far.

You may think it's not convincing enough because of other factors.

Something like pressure or stress.

Some psychological factor.

Do you really think that's all?

JORDAN'S USED CAR BUSINESS

PROSPECTS FOR THE JORDAN PROJECT

What are you doing now?

He must be totally stressed out.

I'm sorry.

Is this 911? Could you send

-an ambulance? -What the heck?

What's with you? Are you getting sentimental because it's fall?

I'm getting my coffee.

Will you smell my new cologne, Geu-rae?

What's wrong with you? Get your act together.

Yes.

-Mr. Kim. -Yes.

You advised me to discuss things with you in advance.

Yeah, do you have anything to say?

Yes, it's about the presentation.

What about the presentation?

Somehow, I feel uneasy.

Uneasy?

Anyone would feel uneasy in this situation.

Right, I mean the contents of the presentation, not the situation.

The contents?

How should I say this...

I feel like our presentation highlights the negative aspects of the project.

What do you mean?

Nothing, sir.

Keep talking.

Please don't take his words seriously, sir.

Keep going!

Why do you think it highlights only the negative aspects?

That's...

That's because our presentation is even more standardized than a manual.

That means it's perfect. Is that a problem?

Yes.

I mean,

presentations usually introduce the business outline first.

As we follow the format,

I feel like our presentation is bound to start with excuses and explanations.

So?

So, instead of following the format,

what about revising it?

Geu-rae. We shouldn't.

Revise it?

Yes, for instance,

when we see a map,

we automatically assume that the top is north.

I'm afraid that's a kind of a rule,

when in fact, the earth doesn't have any concept of top or bottom,

if seen from outer space.

For instance,

we have Australia down here.

But if I hold the map upside down, it goes to the middle of the map.

You can spot Australia much better.

If I turn this around again,

Australia doesn't stand out much.

Geu-rae, that's because...

Starting with the outline is a rule?

If we only stick to the formality,

the key point

could be lost.

Right.

It may be because of that.

I felt kind of uneasy all this time.

Sir.

Revising the presentation as Geu-rae suggested.

I'm not sure precisely what that means.

But if you want to change the contents and structure now,

I'm against it.

We're already running out of time. There's no time to fix it.

I agree with Mr. Kim, sir.

We need to make a selection and focus on the core.

It's not time to revise the contents and start over.

I know that Mr. Oh and Geu-rae are troubled.

I feel that, too.

Still, I don't think we should choose

a risky alternative.

It's not that serious.

Geu-rae.

Go and sort out old reports.

Yes, sir.

You agree that I can convince others only if I'm convinced, right?

I'm not convinced at all myself, so when I try to convince others,

it's nothing but excuses.

I'm sure the audience will notice this.

Do you remember the folder tree that Geu-rae made?

We tried to find the best way within the frame, but Geu-rae totally ignored it.

He solely focused on his objective.

The team's future? Causing a crack? What would others think?

Don't focus on the frame made of these things,

focus on our goal.

Can we make it?

Or not?

Yes, sir.

Geu-rae, come back in.

Create the presentation slides with the concept that you imagined.

I'll give a presentation anyway.

Show your picture.

Give it to me by tomorrow morning.

I need some time to revise and complete it.

Sir, I...

If it takes too long to express a certain idea through the slides,

write it out and send it to me.

This is total nonsense.

Sir.

What happened to Mr. Oh?

He's not the person that I used to know.

He used to be a sensible man.

He hasn't changed at all.

What about you, Dong-sik?

Only after you leave Sales Team Three,

you can be successful.

-Sir... -You're also aware of it.

Why are you guys so serious?

I guess Sales Team Three would be terribly busy now.

Is it the day after tomorrow?

Yes, sir.

I came out to enjoy the breeze, but I can't feel any wind.

Since I'm stuck in the office,

I don't know whether fall is passing by

or winter is coming.

As I'm getting old,

It's such a shame that there's not much time left to enjoy these beautiful days.

Bye.

DRAFT OF JORDAN PROPOSAL SEND

GEU-RAE JANG SALES TEAM THREE, ONE INTERNATIONAL

Geu-rae?

Hello.

-I finished it and... -I read it.

Go to a sauna. I'll tell Mr. Oh.

Yes.

Sir.

Yes?

I'm sorry.

I don't know.

What you said isn't wrong.

Mr. Oh was also concerned about it,

and I perfectly understand the situation.

But if things won't turn out well, to be honest,

I'll get so mad at you.

And I think I will be for quite a long time.

I'm sorry.

Go to a sauna.

-Hey, Mr. Cheon. -Hello, sir.

Good morning.

Yes.

Good morning.

-Good morning. -Hello.

-Are you revising it? -Yes.

After checking the draft that I made overnight,

Mr. Kim revised and completed the presentation slides.

Then, our rehearsal started.

AMMAN, JORDAN

Check the satellite connection.

Mr. Cho, can you hear me?

Yes, I can hear you.

Shall we do a screen test first?

Yes. Please sit down on the chair, Mr. Kim.

Yes.

You're working hard.

I'm Seok-woo Kim, the vice president.

Hello, Mr. Kim. How is your health?

I'm good.

I drink here less than in Korea.

That's great.

What color of clothes are you going to wear today, sir?

I'm going to wear a light grey suit.

Would it be okay?

That's good.

The company logo looks like it's pressing down Mr. Kim's head.

Could you move the chair a bit?

-Is this better? -Yes, great.

Mr. Oh, this is a really appealing project.

I'm glad you didn't abandon it and tried to continue it.

Okay, let's start the rehearsal.

We revised the presentation slides.

Revised?

Yes, please open the recent file we sent.

If you look at the second slide, Indonesia...

Sorry, I need some water.

I'm sorry.

After hearing Mr. Oh's final rehearsal,

I was speechless.

It was the first time for me

to see the OJT rules broken.

Seeing the rules broken down with my own eyes,

I realized I was also already part of the system and used to it.

Then, I doubted myself

I realized i was nothing more than just a newbie.

-And... -Mr. Oh.

Don't you mind even if you fail?

Well, Mr. Oh,

I've never seen this kind of presentation.

Am I mistaken?

Mr. Oh.

I thought you really wanted to make the project successful?

What have I done so far?

Geu-rae, what are you doing? Are you praying to God or something?

No, sir.

Get in.

Yes, sir.

I don't think

Sales Team Three will make it.

-Why? -Mr. Oh is...

I think he's going too far.

Well,

I'm sorry to hear that.
