Box office receipts
for "Terms of Love."

The National sells out every day and
sales are strong in the regional theaters.

Send a man to keep
an eye on ticket sales.

You got it.

The theater owners are already talking
about premiering your next film.

They all want to be the one.

This is all thanks to your hard work.
Thank you.

Pssh. I doubt I could have overcome
all our production problems.

You made this success possible.

I really mean this. The more I see,
the more there is to admire.

Listen to Miss Silver Tongue.

Dense as a post.

That calls for a drink.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

Fair enough.
Champagne on me.

Bitnara Productions.

Oh.
Yes, ma'am.

Yes.
Kitae, the wifey.

It's me.

You have some time today?
My father wants to see you.

Father?
About what?

To talk about our wedding.

Ah. All right.

Let me know when.

Well, I guess the Champagne
will have to wait.

Mr. Lee wants to see you?

Hm.
To discuss the wedding.

To set the date?

Congratulations.

Thanks.

A teacher makes $400 a month.

$500 million in fraud?
What sense does that make exactly?

Whatever it takes,
the perpetrators must be punished.

This must never happen again.

We've got to reassure the public.

That may not be easy.

Everyone knows Jang Cholhwan
manages the party funds.

Imprison him and
the President may be hurt.

Then we'll have to shut Jang up.

Shutting him up isn't the problem.

If he goes to prison,

it will open up the administration's
problems to public scrutiny.

It must be handled delicately.

Right. If this gets out it will hurt
the President most of all.

Discretion is imperative.

What sense does that make?

Your "discretion" could ruin
this administration.

Jang must be punished.
The end.

You all make good points.

The President must be protected,
Jang must be punished.

It's a complicated issue.

I believe we should submit it to the
President to make the final decision.

Well? How did it go?

Not so good.

The final decision rests with the
President and he may be against you.

What?

Be ready for the worst.

Sit.

I enjoyed the film.

Jonghye tells me you overcame
quite a few obstacles to get it made.

Her performance made it possible.

- Oh, and...
- Yes, sir?

Kim Punggil told me everything.

You helped resolve this Jang problem.

I'm grateful.

You saw Mr. Kim?

Yes.

If not for you, I'd be in trouble
with the Yakuza.

Thank you.

Why didn't you tell me?

I'm glad it all worked out.

Seeing how you handled this,

I find myself thinking you
can take care of Jonghye.

Then we have your blessing?

You have my blessing.

Look after my little girl.

Mom, Kitae's home!
Chop-chop!

What's with you?

Take a seat.

I swear.

So what is it?

Jonghye's father has
given his blessing.

That's great.

Yeah, well,
history or no history...

What was wrong with you in
the first place, I'd like to know?

Mom, I've really won him over,
don't you worry.

We had a drink.

He told me to look after his little girl.

Oh?

Did you set the date?

We will.
You should pick the date.

Wait, wait, I know a great fortune-teller,
she'll know the best date.

Where did I put that number?

Thank you.

For what?

He gave us his blessing because
you talked to him.

I didn't do anything.

No. It was your doing.
Thank you, sir.

I hate to spoil the mood and all...

but keep an eye on Jang Cholhwan.

He won't go down alone.

He'll try to drag you
with him if he can.

Be as careful as careful can be.

Yes, sir.

Yes, sir?

Oh. Sit.

How did it go?

It won't be easy.
The President is turning against me.

If I got to jail, you me,
we're both through.

I'll lose everything.
You won't do much better.

Of course.

Sir, whatever it takes,
you've got to get through this.

I've been thinking about it.
There may be a way.

What?

Please.
Tell me how I can help.

You mind taking the blame
for me on this one?

Huh?

Think about it.

If I go down,
both of us are finished.

But if you take the blame,
I can build back up again.

One way or another,
I'll get you out.

But... how could I...?

You just have to agree,
I'll do the rest.

Look, Myongguk, we're comrades,
through thick or thin.

After this is over, we'll rise again.

One year, half a year,
do this for me.

Do this for me
and I'll have your back.

I'll get my hotel back from Kim Punggil
and you'll get your cut.

Anything you need,
just say the word.

This is the only way
we can get through this.

Hello.

Hey, we got a meeting,
where you been?

I bear glad tidings.

Glad what-now?

Kitae's finally getting married.
They set the date.

What?

Mr. Kang, congratulations.

For what?

You set the date.

You'd think you were getting married.

Not just anyone could do what you did.

After all you and Jonghye
have been through?

Then the way her father was acting?

Good for you, good for you.

Mr. Shin, Bitnara's manager is getting
married. We've got to do it up right.

Forget it. We want a small wedding,
nothing fancy.

She's the biggest star in Korea.
Dream on, pal.

We've got to make
much of it for the PR alone.

- Am I right, Mr. No?
- Right, Mr. Shin.

I'll take care of it, leave to me.

Okay.

Thanks.

Good for you, good for you.

Chaeyong.

I thought you were meeting
with Bang Chunsu?

He hasn't finished
writing the song yet.

Oh.

Something on your mind?

No, just, you know.

What?

Kitae and Jonghye set the date.

Her father gave them his blessing.

Good for them.

You don't have to pretend with me.

Let it all out, I'm here for you.

Sir, Kang Kitae to see you.

What now?

This hotel belongs
to Kim Punggil now.

I'm here to discuss the schedule.
When will you be leaving?

Pretending you're in charge now?

Pretending?
It's a fact.

You should stop pretending
and vacate the premises.

Get out... Out of my sight!

Kang Kitae!

Ten years of indigestion, whoosh!
That did my heart good.

I'll just be going then.

I meant to call you.

I heard.
Congratulations.

Thanks.

We won't be talking much after this.
I'll miss it.

You signed with Bitnara. I'd hate for
things to be awkward or uncomfortable.

I wasn't sure
if I should apologize or not.

I didn't want to hurt you anymore.

I'll always cherish
all my memories of us.

I have a meeting.
Excuse me.

I know why Kitae
was pushing to take over.

Why?

Once he's in, the hotel will be
hosting his wedding to Lee Jonghye.

What? Wedding?

Yes. Lee Hyonsu and
Kim Punggil have buried

...the hatchet and given their blessing.

This changes a lot of things.

I'll have to reconsider
working in Korea.

I'll help any way I can when this
business with Jang is wrapped up.

I appreciate that.

I would have been lucky
to have a son like you.

I should apologize.

For what?

Jonghye is marrying Kang Kitae.

It's what she wants.

I couldn't oppose it any longer.

Father.

It's not because I don't like you,
I hope you know that.

Jonghye, she wants Kang Kitae.

I understand you and Kitae
grew up together.

I hope you'll wish the
two of them all the best.

- Stop the car.
- Sir.

Jang Cholhwan called.
He wants a favor.

All right.

Cha Suhyok.
What now?

Can we meet?

There's nothing left to say.

Just for a moment.
We need to talk. Please.

Thank you for coming.

Don't misunderstand.

I'm just here to tell you not
to hold out any hope.

The President made up his mind.

Don't waste your breath.
It won't change a thing.

It may well be that if you're willing,
things can change.

I asked you here to make a
proposal that may interest you.

You've heard Kang Kitae set the date?

He wants me out of the hotel
so he can hold it there.

Neither of us wants that.

My going to prison will be like
giving Kitae wings to fly.

Help me out one last time...

and I'll deal with Kang Kitae.

How do you mean exactly?

With Kitae gone,
you're back in the running.

You don't want to give up Jonghye,
do you?

I'm not asking you
to look the other way.

The administration needs
a scapegoat.

Jo Myongguk is willing
to play that role.

All you have to do is convince
the President.

You're going to lay all of this
on Myongguk?

He and I have already discussed it.

If I take the fall for this,
the President will be in danger.

It will affect others in
the administration

...not directly associated
with the President.

Which route benefits the most people?
That's for you to decide.

Still trying to talk
his way out of prison.

That Jang's a real piece of work.

He left politics long ago and
still manages to scare people.

If he goes to prison,
it will be political disaster.

That's a fact.

Suppose...
he had a scapegoat...

That would be better for the President
and the administration.

A what?
A scapegoat?

Jang wants Jo Myongguk
to take the fall for him.

It's better for the administration.

He's always thinking, that one.

It's true, it would be easier
to prosecute Jo Myongguk.

But will he do it?

At first I thought your system of training
up new talent was a waste of money.

But now it's finally paying off.

Our singers can actually sing,
our actors can actually act, it's amazing.

All the new talent is
begging to sign with us.

But there's too many of them.
We'll have to hold auditions.

Mr. Shin, a word.

Mr. Im?
How you doin'?

How do you think? What's the idea,
not returning my calls?

It's the scheduling.
When I can fit you in, I'll call.

Oh, the head of Bitnara,
Mr. Kang.

Kang Kitae.

I've heard a lot about you.

How you scored one against the man.

That's not quite it.

There's a new program
I'm working on.

We'd like to schedule Yu Chaeyong
or the Sunny Boys.

Or Lee Hyebin.

How's it look?

Tight, very tight.

- How about Jihye?
- Jihye?

We need a name, come on.

Ah, Jihye's not a name now,
but give her a shot.

She's bold and brassy,
you'll like her.

Oh?

Schedule a meeting.

Hang on, we can work her in before
her show. How's 2 o'clock?

I'll give her a shot.
See you.

See you tomorrow.

Bravo, bravo.

Perfect. We'll go through it again
before the show tomorrow.

Fighting.

Hyebin.
Hye-Hye-Hyebin.

Me and Subong got a shot on MBS.

Really?

Mr. Kang wrangled it.

That's great.

Don't be jealous,
Miss Commercial Gig.

Right.
When do you shoot?

Day after tomorrow.

What's the commercial?

Just, you know, stuff, you'll see.

What about that accent of yours?
Clean it up for the show.

Pardon me, miss,
did you say accent?

Us Kwangju chicks
can all speak Seoul.

Oh, Jonghye.

- Hello.
- Hey.

Miss Kim?

Please. Sit.

I've been waiting on you.

Since you had your dresses made here,
women are beating down the doors.

Look these over and
let us know which you like.

And these are my own designs.

See if there's something you like.

You designed all of these?

Myonghi.

I'm fond of the
A-line chiffon ladies' dresses.

Yes, we have that in common.

It's been a while.

Do you have a minute?

Tell Mr. Han I'll be a little late.

Miss.

I heard you've been
helping my father.

Thank you.

I didn't do anything,
but I'm glad it worked out.

He told me about the wedding.

Yes.
Kitae and I are getting married.

I'm sorry to have to say this,
but you really should just let it go.

You should go your own way.

You're all I want,
the only one I love.

You say that now.

Someday you'll find true love, then
you'll understand what I'm saying.

Patronize me all you want,
I won't lose you.

I can't bring myself
to congratulate you.

Have you decided?

I can get you what you want most.

Good.
I accept your proposition.

Good move.

But will Myongguk really do it?

Leave that to me.
He knows it's the only way out of this.

You know as well as I
how dangerous this is.

Just have everything ready.

Of course.
I'll take care of it, not to worry.

Long time.

The usual.

What's that about?

The Bitnara film people.
Celebrating their big hit.

Assistant Director, good work.

- Well done everyone.
- Well done.

Thanks to you, Mr. Choe.

And you. Nice work.

It's thanks to your hard work
that we're here today.

Especially Miyon.
Thank you.

I hope to work with you
on the next project.

The next one will break
even more records.

Of course. A toast.

- To Bitnara and "Terms of Love."
- Bitnara.

You should empty the glass, go on.

Congrats, Director Choi.

Thanks.

Join us?

Consolation for the box office flop,
is that it?

Not at all.
I liked your movie.

You just had bad luck.
The next one will do better.

That some kind of joke?

What's your deal?

Knock it off and go away.

What?

The little tramp can talk.

If you waste a huge budget on a flop,
you should think about why.

Not make trouble.

Maybe if you shut up long enough,
you could learn from your betters.

Song Mijin's niece, huh?
You're just like her.

Hey, got a death wish?

Huh? Huh?

Where do you get off?

Easy, easy now.

Let go.

Leave before things get ugly.

Ugly THIS!

Did you forget
I'm Korea's #1 action hero?

Beat it before you
get worse than that.

We'll just see how long
you're riding high.

I'll give Kitae his, just you wait.

Miyon, you okay?

Sure.

You're really something.

- Hello, Mother.
- Welcome.

Mr. Kim, doing all right?

Thanks to you.

- Shall we?
- Right.

Please.

Coffee, Miss?

No, thank you.

- Take care of the fruit.
- Ma'am.

I'm sorry to have been
so much trouble.

Things will be better in the future.

Oh, you, you're getting married,
that's all that matters.

You like the day I picked?

Yes.

Good.

It's the most auspicious
for having a son.

You've waited long enough.
I want grandchildren.

Hey, sheesh, Mom.

Yes, if you insist.

You'll finally get your grandbabies.

And yours, too.

You don't mind?

No, Grandfather.

Kitae's father was forever
giving me jewelry.

When we went bankrupt and
moved here, I pawned them.

All but this.

Take a look.

My most treasured possession.

The first thing Kitae's father
ever gave to me.

No diamonds, no gold.

Just silver plating is all,
but I hope you'll take it.

Mother, how can I? They hold your
most treasured memories.

Which is why I give it to you.

To share what I treasure
most with you.

Perhaps if we each wear one?

Shall we?

I know you've been through a lot.

Over time that son of mine
is bound to cause you trouble.

Just tell me
and I'll give him what for.

Think of me as your mother.

You're my little girl now.

Mother.

That's it. I want the
two of you to be happy.

That's all I could want.

We will.

After this is over,
we'll rise again.

One year, half a year,
do this for me.

Do this for me
and I'll have your back.

I'll get my hotel back from Kim Punggil
and you'll get your cut.

Anything you need,
just say the word.

This is the only way
we can get through this.

Sir.

There's a problem with
the distribution rights

...Cha Suhyok gave
you money to acquire.

Problem? What problem?

The producers are selling them.

At this rate, you'll need
more investment funding.

Where will I get that exactly?

Distribution rights are all I have left.

What will I do if I lose them?

Song Mijin's niece,
Im Miyon, is behind it all.

What?

Bitnara's buying up the rights
for Kyonggi and Kangwon.

Didn't Taeyang Pictures
buy those up?

Miyon convinced the producers to sell.

It's expensive now,
but once we have exclusive rights,

but once we have
we'll do better in the end.

Whoa.
Good thinking.

Jo Myongguk is in
no position to fight it.

We'll get moving on promotion.

You two really are exactly alike.

Kinda creepy.

See that you run a tight ship
of Miyon will be gone.

Ri-i-ight.

It's not true.
Auntie...

We're ready for auditions.

Ah, right.
Excuse me.

Beau-u-utifulllllll...

If I sing lou-ou-oud, up and down
the scale... you'll think I'm goo-oood...

Give ‘em a hand.

They got the moves.
Give Sunny Boys a run for their money.

But they can't really sing.

They make up for it with dancing.

That guy that sang really well.
Jong Wontae.

They'll make a trio if he learns
to sing it straight.

Good idea.
His singing will cover the others.

Hyebin, Taesu is here.

Huh?
What's he doing here?

What do you think?
To see you.

Ugh, ugh, I'm a duck.

The zipper, c'mon, c'mon.

- Hold still a sec.
- Let me do it.

There. Mr. Jo.

What brings you here?

Oh, you know, I was passing by and
heard you were filming a commercial.

Congrats.

Congratulations, Missus.

Missus?

Loudmouths.

Scram.

(Scoot.)

Flowers, even.

Once I get paid for this gig,
I'll get you a car.

I'm not the kind of man
to take things from his woman.

But I wanna, though.

- Hyebin, you're on.
- ‘kay.

Bye.

And now,
the Cutesy Ducky Singers.

Quack-quack Super,
Quack-quack Hearty

Quack-quack Simple,
Quack-quack Lovey-dovey

Happiness is eating together,
yummy duckies

Eat with friends.
Yummy duckies.

Cut. Set it again.

You think it over?

I know why you're worried.

But we're at the end of our rope here.

If one of us survives,
we have a future.

Think of it that way
and it's not so bad.

This is the prosecutor's office.
My say-so isn't enough.

Don't worry about that.
I've worked it out with Cha Suhyok.

Suhyok?
He accepted your proposition?

I made him an offer
he couldn't refuse.

With Kang Kitae's life as collateral.

His life...?
Then..?

If he's gone, it's good for Suhyok,
for you, for all of us.

We should have killed him long ago,
if that's what it took.

Just give me your word
and we'll go from there.

This is our last chance.
Don't forget.

These are all scripts?

Uh-huh.
I'm picking our next project.

What's this?

An invitation from
Mr. Kang and Lee Jonghye.

They'll give you yours in person.

Are you a little sad?

Why would I be?

Tell the truth.

I know you're fond of Kitae.

He certainly does grow on you.

Maybe, if we'd met sooner,
who knows?

But it's too late now.

Listen to you.

That's why I told you to go for it.

This may seem inappropriate,
but I'm happy just working with him.

That's exhilarating in itself.

I understand, but hearing
you say it like that...

Whew, now I'M sad.
Tsk-tsk-tsk.

- My Lee Juil routine?
- It's all you know.

Wait,
what are you all doing here?

No idea. You?

Nope.
But I saw your ducky commercial.

And?

- Cute. Cuddly.
- Right, right.

- They pay you in wings?
- Whatever.

Tonight, wings are on me.

Woohoo!

You, too, don't forget.

Sweet-n-sour, sweet-n-sour.

Hey, hey.

Hello.

Sir, what's this about?

You all know Mr. Kang
is marrying Lee Jonghye?

Sure.

We going to let our boss get married
and leave it at that?

We've got to do it up right.

Not some sappy little tune, either.

A full-blown show.

Show?

At a wedding?

Yeah. The media will be
all over the wedding.

Not to mention the guest list,
am I right?

It's a great chance
for some PR, see?

What do you have in mind?

I was thinking a musical format.
What do you say?

Sounds fun. Hee-hee.

- Right? Fun, right?
- Yes.

- Yeah.
- Yeah!

Oh, welcome, Mr. Kang.

Isn't this against tradition?

Not hardly. What,
you don't want your tuxedo to fit?

Is it ready?

Yes. You first.

Okay.

Here, please.

Everyone's talking
about your wedding.

The biggest wedding since
Shin Songil and Om Aengnan.

Come on.

No Sangtaek tells me Bitnara is putting
on a show for the wedding.

I can't wait.

Jo Myongguk, sir.

- Send him in and leave us alone.
- All right.

- And no one next door.
- All right.

Sit.

Kang Kitae's wedding is coming up.

It's time you made a decision.

I can't do it.

What?

You... You tell me this NOW?

I make plans, you keep me waiting,
and tell me this NOW?

Don't you trust me?

It's not that, but what you're suggesting
is extremely dangerous.

It won't save us.
It will kill us.

Wimp.
Get your head on straight.

Kill us?
Nothing will kill us.

We'll live.
Kitae will be gone.

What's wrong with that?

I'm sorry. I can't.

Wimp!

Now, now, now, Myongguk.

Don't be afraid.
Just trust me.

I'm sorry.

Myongguk!
Come back here!

Myongguk!

Wimp...

Fine, try to make it on your own!

But I won't forget this.

Never.

Whoa. Great.

Well? You like it?

Thank you.
It's gorgeous.

Oh, yes?

"Oh, yes?" Kitae's wedding
is right around the corner.

What progress have you made?

Relax.
I'll take care of everything.

You just keep your end
of the bargain.

All right.
I'll be waiting.

Sit.

Yes, sir.

Get rid of Kang Kitae.

Find someone to take care of it.

Get rid of..?

You lose your hearing
all of a sudden?

I want Kang Kitae dead.

Sir?
