This bastard... was alive, huh?

Oh Man Ok, you... committed too many sins,

so you can't be convicted within the boundaries of the law.

[3 days ago]

The drug addict Lee Yong Deuk killed Doo Hak's father and covered it up as an accident.

The one who ordered him to do so on the outside is

Oh Man Ok.

But Oh Man Ok has no particular motive

for killing Doo Hak's father. [Episode 14]

Then that means that Oh Man Ok's boss gave him the order.

It could be the orders of just one person,

or it could be the will of the entire family.

Can't we just report this to the police?

Geez! Hey, now that you've grown a bit older,

shouldn't your brain start working by now?

How could the police handle Namsan?

Also, who would listen to the words of a drug addict?

Who would believe him?

Oh, you're right.

They wouldn't be able to handle them.

But as Young Pil found in his background search,

Oh Man Ok is so caught up with filling his own belly that he even resorts to taking money from casinos.

Also, although he's the right-hand man of this family,

he's got a grudge against Choi Cheol Woong.

Then, it's very likely that Choi Cheol Woong demoted him to Busan.

- Yeah. - But... he was brought back right away.

The one who brought him back was probably Hwang Choong Sung.

Since he was his long-time right-hand man.

I mean, Choi Cheol Woong probably couldn't do anything about it, either.

More importantly, he knows the corruption of that family best.

So it appears he decided that it was best to keep him around,

coddle him, and keep an eye on him.

Usually, the traitor is someone who's closest to the boss or knows him well.

Really? The closest one...

Gosh, you bastard!

I'm just joking!

In any case, if they all stick together, we can't touch them.

They have power, money, a prosecutor who has the right to investigate cases,

and a vicious hunting dog who wouldn't hesitate to kill.

We'll have to break them up.

Bingo.

How?

We'll have to cause them to doubt each other.

Who? Choi Cheol Woong?

No.

Within that group, the one who has the weakest connection

and has the biggest greed.

[Lee Yong Deuk, Oh Man Ok, Choi Cheol Woong, Hwang Choong Seong, Kang Yeo Jin]

[Oh Man Ok]

The hunting dog.

The hunting dog...

[Oh Man Ok]

[2 days ago]

What do you mean?

Are you saying I protected Team Captain Oh?

Yes.

That's what it looked like.

Mother, does Team Captain Oh hold something as leverage against you?

What in the world are you talking about?

What do you mean by holding leverage?

Cheol Woong.

I know that you hate Team Captain Oh, but he sincerely apologized to you.

Also, our family needs him.

We need him?

You should forgive him now.

I mean, I suppose you would need him, Mom.

He played a major role in helping you acquire your wealth, Mother, is he not?

Cheol Woong, I did that for your future–

No, no, no.

It wasn't for my future,

but you nearly screwed up my future.

Your real estate...

was purchased with the knowledge of the development plans ahead of time.

It's not just me.

Everyone does it!

You know that much!

Everyone does it?

Ordinary people don't have access to such power or information.

And there's no way Oh Man Ok did that for you purely out of loyalty.

And you are not the type who wouldn't compensate him for it, either, Mom.

That will all become evidence later.

That is necessary.

Does a horse run only by whipping it?

It also needs to be given carrots for it run!

That's... because a horse is a beast that can be tamed.

Oh Man Ok is not a beast you can tame, Mom.

Cheol Woong.

We have your father.

Team Captain Oh can't do whatever he wants against us or betray us.

Everything that Oh Man Ok knows about us,

that will all be a deadly weapon that he can use against us, Mom!

Cheol Woong. Why are you being like this?

Your father, you, and I all agreed to move past this already.

Let's stop this now, please?

Oh Man Ok threatened me before.

In this spot.

What?

He threatened me,

knowing that I murdered someone and had Doo Hak hyung take the blame.

And...

And what else did he threaten you with?

Also, the fact that the person closest to you

had the definitive witness killed.

I'm asking just in case,

but Joong Ho ahjussi...

were you responsible?

What are you talking about?

Are you trying to say that I ordered him to kill Ahjussi?

That was an accident!

If you weren't responsible, then tell me so.

Don't look at me with those eyes!

It's not me.

I'm not responsible for that!

Then...

was it Father?

Cheol Woong.

Tell me the truth, Mom.

Do you know what that guy said to me?

He said the one closest to me did it.

So, please tell me the truth.

Lee Joong Ho threatened your mother.

Honey...

- Excuse me? - While Team Captain Oh was acting as your mother's security,

he found out about Lee Joong Ho's threats.

I found out later after receiving his report that he took care of it by himself.

Does that make any sense?

How could Team Captain Oh do that by himself?

There are times in our field when we take action first and then report later.

You know that as well.

But even so, that is a bit–

Don't make this a problem any more.

You can't make this a problem, and you shouldn't do so, either.

You want me to tell you the truth?

The truth is... knowing the truth is not always right and worthwhile.

An uncomfortable truth can actually cause chaos in society, and destroy a nation.

At times, it is more often than not

more right and worthwhile not to know it or to cover it up.

But if you still feel that you must know the truth, then go ahead and try it.

In return, you will have to lay everything down.

Your ambitions, and your love.

I was so shocked as well.

I didn't know Team Captain Oh would go to that extent.

Did Ahjussi...

really demand money from you?

Yeah.

And so, did you give it to him?

That real estate agency Doo Hak's mother is running

got started using my money.

It's the truth.

Honestly,

I can't believe it.

He's not someone who would do that.

I was the same.

I guess it was hard for him to come up here without any money.

He was like...

a real father to me.

I know.

So, that's why I couldn't really tell you these things.

When I look at you, Cheol Woong,

you take after your grandfather.

You will become a great person

just like your grandfather.

Well, If I could be like him in the slightest, I would be happy.

Aigoo, how you're also humble...

You are truly an adult. Really.

Cheol Woong...

let me give you a hug.

[1 day ago]

Hello?

It's me.

If you still can't believe me, you can ask Cheol Woong yourself.

Would Cheol Woong admit it even if I asked him?

There's no evidence. So would he admit to being a murderer?

Doo Hak, please–

You can think I am spewing nonsense out of wanting to get revenge.

You remember what I said to you before I got shot and jumped into the ocean?

Listen carefully to what I'm about to say.

There's a slush fund ledger I gave to the NSA.

If that's revealed to the world...

That...

You still have it, right?

Yeah, I remember it.

Why do you ask about that?

You said not to open it or show it to anyone.

Because it's so dangerous and you would get hurt.

I wouldn't be around, so you wouldn't have anyone to protect you.

Within the slush fund ledger,

there is a notebook.

[Present] Yeah.

I can say it.

I can say it's not true.

Even if I die and meet those two,

I can say it's not true!

Even if such ridiculous things took place,

would Doo Hak hyung have lived not saying anything?

What kind of crazy bastard

would live such a long sentence in prison for someone else, Jung Shin?

- Isn't that right? - That's right.

Lee Doo Hak sure happens to be a crazy bastard.

Choi Cheol Woong.

You were such a good friend to me.

And a friend I felt bad for.

I really hoped it wasn't you.

That day,

it was raining heavily.

My father returned from Cheol Woong's house completely soaked and...

Doo Hak...

looked down at me while I was crouching under the eaves.

With such a pitiful look in his eyes.

And...

with a gaze that said he had no choice,

that I should go to jail instead of Cheol Woong,

and that I shouldn't forgive him.

Jung Shin was looking down at me in disbelief.

And she kept asking me

holding onto me.

I couldn't say anything.

In the police car on the way to the station,

Cheol Woong told me he was sorry.

I answered him saying,

"What are you sorry about?"

"You are human, while I'm the son of a servant."

"I'm pretty much a dog or a pig, so what are you sorry about?"

And like that, I came here.

The son of a servant dreamed a useless dream.

I dreamed of becoming a Korean Literature teacher,

and of eating dinner with Jung Shin, who looks pretty with her pigtails

when I come home from work.

That was a ridiculous ambition.

How dare Lee Doo Hak, the son of a servant...

Lee Doo Hak, who is nothing more than a dog or a pig...

♫ Back in your love, in my life ♫

♫ Let me go and my life ♫

♫ Let me go and your life ♫

♫ Love you, no more ♫

♫ I want to be myself ♫

♫ Let me go and my life ♫

I'm sorry, Jung Shin.

I'm sorry.

Why are you sorry to me?

What are you sorry about?

All of it.

I'm sorry about everything.

Why did you do that!

Why did you do that to that poor guy!

Why did you do that...

Why did you do that, Cheol Woong...

You read it, too.

His dream was to become a Korean Literature teacher.

He dreamed of living together with me.

But he says that was a ridiculous ambition and a useless dream!

It's something everyone else could achieve!

How is that anything big or something to dream about!

He says it was a dream he should never have dreamed as the son of a servant.

I was scared

that my life would end.

Most importantly,

I was most afraid of not being able to see you again.

I'm sorry, Jung Shin.

I really wanted to be a decent guy to you.

Then, what about Doo Hak?

It's okay for Doo Hak's life to end?

Is that why you killed Doo Hak's father as well?

No, that's really not true, Jung Shin.

Doo Hak's father was really like a father to me, too.

How could I do that to someone I considered a father?

That was really an accident.

I did my best to look into it.

Now, I can't believe anything you say anymore.

Jung Shin, I'm tormented, too!

I have done so up to this point,

but I will keep living...

to atone for what I did.

Leave.

Killing that bastard in Yeosu...

That was your fault.

I was able to endure him taking my money and beating me,

but when that bastard hit you, I really

wanted to kill him.

Jung Shin, it's true that I was wrong,

but I can't turn back.

Just...

I-I'll just be good to you.

I'll be good to you and Ahjumma severalfold to make up for Doo Hak hyung.

Choi Cheol Woong...

I don't know if I can stand to see you anymore.

Don't call me again.

♫ Will I be able to come to you again? ♫

♫ Trembling eyes, they're even more sorrowful ♫

♫ Above the rough sky, my heart floats away ♫

♫ Only your name, I engrave like this ♫

Cheol Woong...

When did you come home?

You must be tired, wash up, and go to bed early–

What's wrong with your hand?

How did you get hurt?

The skin on your knuckles has all peeled off!

Just wait a moment. I will bring ointment.

Mom.

Yeah?

Why did you raise me like this?

What do you mean?

What happened?

If I did something wrong,

you should have scolded me and hit me with a stick.

You should have punished me until I was remorseful.

Cheol Woong... why are you being like that?

I even killed someone!

So how did you manage to do that, Mom?

Even if I begged you to save me,

y-you should've had me pay the price

so that I grow up, live properly, and come to my senses, Mom.

Doo Hak hyung's life was ruined, and he died because of me.

Ahjussi died, too.

After that, there was never a day I felt at peace.

Mom,

if you'd sent me to jail instead of protecting me, will things be different now?

Cheol Woong, don't be like this.

You are my everything.

If I had sent you to prison then, I would probably be dead.

For you, I could do even worse things.

If I could just save you, I could even give up my heart!

You're... You are my life.

You're right.

I... I'm your life.

Yeah. That's right.

So...

Mom, you lived for yourself,

not for me.

Cheol Woong.

Why are you being like this?

What took place that you're being like this?

Jung Shin...

found out...

that I'm a murderer.

How?

How could she know?

I told her, Mom.

Cheol Woong! What have you done!

Mom. I can't hold it in anymore.

I just can't deal with this anymore!

I'm sick of acting like I'm okay, and like I'm not the one.

Doo Hak hyung ruined his entire life because of me!

It's the same as if I killed him!

Not only that,

Jung Shin even says she will leave me.

No, no!

What do I do, Mom?

Don't worry, Cheol Woong.

I will meet Jung Shin and shut her mouth.

She won't ever report you or anything like that.

Actually, even if she were to report you,

Doo Hak has already served the full sentence and died!

So what could possibly happen?

It's okay.

It's okay.

How did you endure that?

How? You idiot!

It's because you were there, Jung Shin.

Because of you.

He said he had nothing to do with your father's death.

Of course, he would.

It was his last chance to seem human to you.

No. That part seemed truthful.

You hope it was the truth.

Doo Hak, can't you just end it here?

You can't go back to the way things were anyway.

You should visit your mother and find Jung Ok,

and let's go to the U.S. or Japan and live there.

You should spend the rest of your life like a human being.

I know.

We should leave.

- Do you really mean that? - I'm not interested in revenge or getting justice.

The reason why I fought with my life to return was to meet you again.

I thought I would be okay with everything being forgotten

if I could just be happy with you.

But every night, my heart is engulfed in flames

and burns up my entire body.

I don't know how to describe it.

Jung Shin. I need to quench those flames.

If not, I would burn to death from those flames even if I left this country!

And those flames will spread to you, too.

I'm scared.

I'm so scared that I'll go mad.

All right.

Let's quench those flames together.

But in return, promise me...

that you will not burn up in those flames.

Jung Shin...

Let's do it together, Doo Hak.

We can do it together.

♫ Somebody please tell me now, what am I supposed to do? ♫

♫ Maybe you'll come to lie to me now, what am I supposed to do? ♫

♫ Most beautiful, most cheer is full ♫

♫ Darling, it's all in your mind ♫

♫ I'll really come back, they're hauling me back, ♫

♫ A lot of men ♫

♫ They charge for the darkness and doubt for the rhythm ♫

♫ And then you are lost in your mind ♫

Did you sleep well?

Yeah.

♫ Kill me softly ♫

Thanks for being alive, Doo Hak.

It took me too long.

My heart was tearing apart much more when we met again

than when we were separated.

Afraid that it might be a dream.

Afraid that I might wake up from the dream.

If this is a dream, then let's not ever wake up.

♫ Please save me now, I don't know what to do ♫

♫ Out of the darkness, we don't have to trust it ♫

♫ Breathe in, nobody knows ♫

♫ Nobody knows, the pain ♫

You're here, Mother?

- Ta-da! - Whoa!

Oh, my goodness. What is all this?

Well, this is your first time coming to my house.

Even so, it's a housewarming, not a birthday party.

Huh? Is it a special occasion today?

Yes.

Housewarmings and birthdays aren't the only special occasions.

If the day was peaceful without any trouble, that's also a special occasion.

My, you sound like a grandma who's lived a century.

Anyhow, it feels great to see you.

Me, too.

All right, now. Let's close our eyes and say our wishes.

Shall we?

Jung Shin...

I'm hallucinating here.

I see Doo Hak right now.

I must really be close to my death now.

Mom...

Oh, my.

He even called me just now.

It is Doo Hak.

He came back alive. He did.

What's the matter with you?

Mom, I'm Doo Hak.

Your son...

Mom, I'm really sorry.

I-Is it you, Doo Hak?

M-My baby...

Are you my baby, D-Doo Hak?

Yes.

Mom, I'm sorry.

I'm really sorry, Mom.

My baby!

Lying together likes this... reminds me of the days when we all slept in one room.

Mom... aren't there any countries you want to visit?

Why wouldn't there be?

I never even got to ride an airplane.

Why? Are you going to buy me a trip around the world?

Gosh, you think that's all I can do for you?

Whether it's the U.S. or the U.K.,

you can just go and live there.

Is it because living in Korea is a bit difficult... that you want to go live abroad?

Well, that's part of it.

Doo Hak... I'm fine with wherever.

If I can just live with my child in this old age...

wouldn't that be my hometown?

Okay, Mom.

By the way... I just have one request for you.

Don't ever be a bad son again.

You should never pass on before your parents.

And don't pretend to be dead, either.

Do you understand?

Yes, Mom.

Thank you, my baby.

Today is really your birthday.

It's better than the day I gave birth to you.

Please make the preparations right away.

Yes, right on.

Hello, Madam.

What brings you here so early in the morning?

I brought some important information for you.

If you aren't interested, I'll take my leave.

Do you... want a separate reward again?

How could I?

So... what is this information you speak of?

Changsung Group's situation is worse than expected.

Even our agency is worried they might go bankrupt.

I thought that was why they wanted Choi Cheol Woong.

But that wasn't the case.

We were fooled.

They already knew Choi Cheol Woong liked Oh Jung Shin.

Why'd they pull off such a show, then?

It's all for the Sooseo District Development business.

How much did he say the profit was?

I assume he probably said something like 100 billion won.

In fact... it's at least 500 billion won.

He lowered the profit when telling his partners, in an attempt to take the rest for himself.

Additionally, he desperately needs you and Deputy Director for that business at the moment.

How did you find out about this?

Well, our company's work involves keeping a watch on corporations.

If there's anything else you want to confirm, tell Deputy Director...

No. He doesn't know about my deal with Chairman Keum.

But this isn't necessarily bad news.

It's wrong for Chairman Keum to have fooled you.

But your profit is... also increasing as a result, isn't it?

And mine as well.

I must meet Chairman Keum.

No. Even if you meet him now...

he'll deny it, showing you the financial forecast.

Only after the business has been accomplished, that's when you must strike him.

We must also prepare surefire evidence he can't deny in the meantime.

That's how you'll be able to get your fair share.

Do you understand?

It's out of ammo.

Stop playing around and kill me right now.

I don't like playing with a person's life, either.

But there's one thing I'm sincerely curious about.

There was another person who wanted to kill you besides me.

Cut the bullshit.

What? You want me to kill a person?

Who's this request from?

I don't know about that.

He only left the documents in the mail.

But why would he come to me?

I mean, you told me to bring you

anything that will make money after you got out of jail.

Come on, now!

Even so, am I a human butcher or something?

Gosh, Hyungnim, your knife skills are neat, aren't they?

Man, that's only when we're at an all-out war.

How could I kill a complete stranger?

Aigoo, seriously, this guy.

Just forget about it!

Aigoo, all right.

I'll look for something else. Let's go.

How much are they paying?

One hundred million won upfront, and 200 million won after the job is done.

What? Three hundred million won?

Yes.

Who do they want?

The name is Oh Man Ok.

He's in the NSA, apparently.

You know what's so funny?

The one who got the request is pretty close to us.

So he came to consult us about what to do.

Isn't it funny?

You think... I'd be fooled by such tricks?

Hurry up and finish.

I'm not playing tricks.

You're my sworn enemy.

So I want to kill you right away.

However... I'm really just curious.

Don't you have anyone in mind?

I don't know, you asshole.

Don't be like that, and use your brain a little more.

Don't play both sides against the middle.

By that, you mean... it's someone who's close to you, huh?

Oh Man Ok...

will you be able to sleep at night if there exists someone who knows

everything about you, including your flaws?

If you'll help us out...

you can have all the money that the person you suspect owns.

I'll get my revenge against the one who's trying to kill you... and you become rich.

Isn't it a once-in-a-lifetime chance?

Think about it carefully.

Kang Yeo Jin...

Choi Cheol Woong...

You two really did it?

[Choonmoo-si: became modern-day Tongyeong-si after the consolidation of administrative districts in 1995.]

You're Park Dae Sung's hoobae from high school?

Yes, Sunbaenim!

Gosh, Park Dae Sung's living the good life, isn't he?

[Kim Sung Yeob: Prosecutor of Choongmoo-si's Criminal Investigation Team] He was right about starting his own office and quitting the prosecutor job.

He makes good money and got a great wife.

Aigoo, I'm so jealous.

I'm jealous.

Please speak comfortably*, Sunbaenim. (Skip the honorifics)

Should I?

All right. What brings you all the way here?

You didn't come to ask me a favor... or something like that, right?

Gosh, even though I'm a prosecutor... my sword is all rusty and worn out.

It's falling apart into pieces.

In one word, I have no power.

Isn't it because you're too upright?

Hey!

All right. Say hi.

The journalist you asked me to cast.

He's the journalist whom Chun Doo Hwan fired when he consolidated

all the news agencies back then.

He's a long-time drinking buddy of Director Go,

whom he got to know because of the Ministry of Culture matter.

I'd like to introduce myself.

- I'm a film producer Oh Jung Shin. - Oh, yes.

My name is Shin Sik, and I run a small magazine publishing company.

His name is Shin Sik*... (Shinsik: newest style/trend in Korean)

but his way of life is so stubborn and old-fashioned.

Even when I tell him to just work for a news agency,

he keeps talking about realizing the true spirit of journalism

with other journalists who also got fired, altogether starving to death.

All right. What's your business?

In fact, I'm trying to run a resort around here.

And when you run a business, complaints, and arguments are sure to follow.

That's for sure!

So I came down in advance to get to know you while I'm at it.

Getting to know each other is great!

So, what do you have for me?

First off, I'll give you 10 million won per month.

And I'll take care of all expenses you incur.

Also, I heard the house you have in Seoul is about 676 sq ft, on an annual lease.

But it's a little small for your wife and kids to live in, right?

If you get back to your position in Seoul,

I'll buy you a 1,000 sq ft apartment in Gangnam.

You've got a lot of money, my lad.

Gosh, I guess this year is my year, huh?

For such a great sponsor to come to befriend me!

All right!

Dear Sponsor Hoobanim, let's drink up.

Yes, Sunbaenim!

That's great.

Please take a bite, Sunbaenim.

Geez... No, no.

There's something else I like more than sashimi.

Sorry? Wh-What is that?

- You can order anything you want! - You f***!

I just love this taste, you see?

This flavor just delivers directly into my hand.

Wow, I didn't get to taste this in a long time.

Hyungnim, we need to starve... in order for the people not to starve.

Once we get our bellies full of fat... that's when the people starve.

They'll starve because their brains don't get any truth, all right?

By the way, why did you want to meet him?

It's not even a film magazine.

Could we buy this company from you?

We'll hire more reporters and also, print more than enough volumes.

And you can keep your position as the CEO.

Sorry?

Why buy such a puny magazine company like ours?

It won't be puny anymore.

I'm sorry! I'm sorry, Sunbaenim.

For what?

For trying to get insured.

That's right, you punk.

You came to the wrong person!

Stand up.

Sit down.

Even if my sword is in pieces like a rusty saw...

I can still take down someone like you.

And how much will it hurt when you get slashed by a sword that's rusty and old,

which won't even go in smoothly?

It'll hurt two or three times worse, right?

- Yes. - Also, man...

if you're going to do a background search, do it right.

A house on annual lease, too small for my family?

Gosh, this asshole!

I even gave all of that to my wife.

She divorced me a week ago!

I'm a prosecutor who's got jack-shit! All right?

I have nothing to lose right now and nothing to fear, either!

Then you just went ahead and put salt... on my wounded pride.

Do you think you were wrong... or not?

I was wrong.

[Prosecutor Kim Sung Yeob]

Thank you for the trouble.

Hey, he's got quite the slaps.

My back tooth is still shaky.

Anyhow, we can say he passed the test.

You said he used to be in Special Investigations, right?

Yes.

Will you send the documents?

We'll first send the copy and get him back in Seoul.

All right. I'll ask the chief prosecutor.

Don't we also need to find a trustworthy journalist?

I'm already looking.

Prosecutor Kim, you've got a delivery.

Prosecutor Kim...

- Prosecutor Kim! - Wh-What? What is it?

You've got mail.

- Oh, thank you. - Sure.

[From: No Sook Ja*, 43-205 Dongja-dong, Yongsan-gu, Seoul-si] (Nosookja: a homeless person)

[Gongjang-dong Redevelopment Presale Contract Down Payments]

[NSA Slush Funds]

Jin Hee...

- Yes? - Well... check this address for me.

- Yes. - Thanks.

[From: No Sook Ja*, 43-205 Dongja-dong, Yongsan-gu, Seoul-si]

This is the Seoul subway station.

- The Seoul subway station? - Yes.

Yes, hello?

Prosecutor Kim Sung Yeob... did you get my mail?

Are you the homeless man in Seoul station?

Are you playing with me right now?

I'm not playing around, and we'll meet eventually.

I'll give you the original then, so keep that in a safe place for now.

Do you know what you're doing right...

Hello? Hello?

What's up with this asshole?

What do you think you're doing?

Aigoo, Gramps, please talk it out.

I sent you back here to do my business.

I didn't do it to tend to your business!

What are you so angry about right now?

I didn't mess up any of your business.

Doo Hak, what's going on with Changsung Constructions?

What's the problem with them?

You really don't know?

You're a pathetic idiot if you didn't know!

Didn't you say Changsung Constructions will go bankrupt?

However...

they'll be building a large apartment complex in a place called Sooseo District.

So did Chansung Constructions build those apartments already?

The rumor is already widespread.

There will be an official announcement soon.

Their stock price already rose 30% and will rise even more from now on.

How could you say that company will go bankrupt?

While waiting for Changsung Constructions...

I had to let go of a number of great companies!

You're causing this scene over something like that?

What?

That's great.

The rumor's up and about, and the stock price went up.

What are you talking about? Explain so we can understand.

If they go bankrupt while getting the entire nation's attention...

it'll be easier to buy than scrap iron.

Even I can understand that...

but why are you saying Changsung Constructions will go bankrupt?

Because I'll make them go bankrupt.

By what means?

I can't tell you that right now.

Weren't we all one family?

I've never seen a family who throws an ashtray before getting the result.

Hey, Fish...

Can you take responsibility?

If you fail on this one, I'll report you!

It's clear we're not family.

If you just wait a bit longer... I'll bring you the news of victory.

I'm going.

What's that punk saying he'll do right now?

Pardon me. Are you enjoying your food?

Yes, it's delicious.

Sorry?

You're going to sell the building in Apgujeong?

That 15-story building, the cream of the crop?

Yes, I'd like to have it sold as soon as possible, Accountant Yang.

Well, it's already valued at more than 15 billion won and

it'll even exceed 20 billion won soon enough.

Isn't that too much of a waste?

Do you think I don't see that?

But what can I do?

I can't let my only son get locked up after bankrupting his company!

If you want to sell it in a rush, how much do you want for it?

I'll sell it for about 12 billion won.

Sorry?

Madam, I think that's way too cheap.

My son will die if we can't pay the loan within a month!

Hello. Are you enjoying your steaks?

Oh, yes. They're very tender and delicious.

I can't tell if this meat is going... into my mouth or my nose.

I'm sure people will line up to purchase it at that price.

I'm sorry for raising my voice.

No, not at all.

Right. When we get a new wine at our salon,

we invite only the VIPs for wine tasting.

If you give me your business cards, I'll contact you.

Wine sounds great.

One moment, please.

Here you go.

[Principal CPA Yang Sung Geun, AGJ Tax & Accounting]

Oh, you're a CPA?

Well, yes.

Okay, I'll be sure to give you a call.

Please enjoy your meal.

Gosh, the thing is really...

A little bit toward that way...

Hey, let's get out of here! Quickly!

- Hurry up! - Quickly!

Did you let it slip naturally? Huh?

Aigoo! Hey, I almost died of a heart attack!

I almost lost my own eyes from trying to pluck her eyeballs.

I had to watch her, but my limbs were trembling, and I almost spoke in my dialect.

I was really at my wit's end.

Hey, why aren't you starting the car? Let's get out of here!

This shitty car isn't starting! What can I do!

You were talking about Jo Se Hyeong and Hwalbindang*, (Famous thieves in Korean history)

but you can never be a big thief, Hyungnim.

Hey, man, we're trying to pluck NSA Deputy Director's wife's eyeballs here!

Even Jo Se Hyeong, Hong Gil Dong*, and Lim Kkeok Jung* would get scared! (Robin Hood figures in Korean history)

Gosh, all right.

Anyhow, I hope they bite the bait nice and hard.

Seeing how her ears were sharp while pretending not to listen,

I think she'll bite it 100%, probably.

Hey, so let's be very cautious. Okay?

With one wrong step, forget prison sentence.

We'll be torn limb by limb.

- Whoa! It started! - Hey, step on it!

Let's go!

Welcome.

Your mom wanted to have lunch since there's a new head chef.

Let's all give our opinions.

Okay.

You're troubled lately because of CEO Oh Jung Shin, right?

I told him about her.

Why don't you go to a branch in the U.S. or Europe to take a breather?

No.

I don't want to run away for a reason like that.

I'll stay here, Father.

All right. If you can face it and overcome it, that's better.

Here's your clam chowder in bread bowls.

Long time no see, sir.

She's our special head chef for the day.

She wanted our family to try the food she learned to make in the U.S.

Yes.

Please try some and let me know how it is.

It's flavorful and delicious.

What about you, Dear?

I think I'll have to make this our salon's signature menu.

Why don't you try some, sir?

Do you like me that much?

You like to cut to the chase.

Yes, I do.

Enough to treat you to a dish I spent two hours on.

Thank you.

I'll enjoy the food.

By the way... there's a woman I've been working on for 10 years.

But she hurt me recently, so my heart is aching too much right now.

So, since I don't want to hurt your feelings,

I'll enjoy today's food, at the very least.

Thank you.

You know, when you look at history,

neighboring countries exchanged prisoners,

formed marriages of convenience and stuff, right?

They say they'll send their princess for the marriage,

but send a commoner woman to the neighboring country instead.

In fact, that was my purpose in approaching you, too.

So my father and his company can approach Deputy Director and his wife...

I had to make my move.

Saying stuff like how I said I liked you...

although it wasn't completely false... it was all just a show.

But a few days ago, Father told me this.

He got to know Madam and got into a business together.

So I can stop putting on a show.

I apologize for acting in front of you, although it wasn't my intention.

It's okay since I wasn't that serious of an audience.

CEO Oh Jung Shin, who runs a film studio.

I already knew you had her in your heart before I started all this.

Nonetheless,

we also have a department that looks up all kinds of information for no reason.

So, let me apologize, but...

we also looked into CEO Oh Jung Shin's surroundings.

The guys who kept a watch around CEO Oh's house

told me an interesting story a few days ago.

It looks like she's in love with someone.

A certain man appeared... around CEO Oh's house one late night.

CEO Oh, and that man...

hugged each other in joy and cried for hours...

as if they were loves who have been apart for years.

I didn't know if I wanted to tell you this or not.

But your face looked too lonely earlier.

All right, then.

The preparations are complete.

I'm the publisher of that magazine starting this month.

Let's meet up and talk.

Thank you for the work.

I had something to tell you anyway, so it's great timing.

I'll buy you dinner today.

Buy me something expensive, all right?

[NSA Deputy Director's Special Aide, Choi Cheol Woong]

Please be my Princess Pyeonggang*. I'll make it up to you for the rest of my life. (Historical figure)

I just can't bear to watch you become miserable.

Hey, Choi Cheol Woong.

Of all people, you can't do this to me.

- Cheol Woong... - You can't have Jung Shin.

Cheol Woong!

Cheol Woong might be completely ruined when the trigger is pulled.

I heard you did it, huh? At Yeosu...

Why? Are you frustrated that I didn't die?

- Yeah, bastard. - Want me to tell you a funny story?

Choi Cheol Woong's birth father is...

I knew it as well.

Yeo Jin must've had it tough because of you, Team Captain Oh.

Commander.

I'll have someone else watch Lee Doo Hak.

- No, I'll put an end to Lee Doo Hak— - I told you to stop!

People still don't know what kind of person Lee Doo Hak is.

- Are you sure you can beat me? - I won't lose on purpose.
