[Episode 62]

I apologize for National Security.

Why should you?
You're not different.

Kitae.

Make all the excuses you want,
to me you're no better than Jang.

I understand why you think that.

But I've gone as far as
I can with Jang.

I'll finish him with my own hands.
But I need your help.

With the material Myongguk
gave you I can ruin him.

It's of no use to you.

I don't trust you.

Kitae.

How can I trust a man that got Jang
out of prison just to stay in power?

There's nothing else to say.
Leave.

Your investigation into Kim Punggil
and Lee Hyonsu is over.

That's National Security business.

You have no authority.

Oh, but Jang Cholhwan has?

Tell me you're not acting
under his orders.

Let go.

I'm warning you,

stop now or you and Jang will
face charges of abuse of power.

Do I make myself clear?

Report.

Cha Suhyok showed up.
We failed.

Cha Suhyok?
What for?

He said if we don't close the
investigation he'll make trouble for us.

Little twit.

You think Suhyok has
Myongguk's materials?

I doubt it.

Fine.
Dismissed.

Yes.

It's Kang Kitae.

So what?

We should talk.

I'm on my way.

Why bother with him?

Sooner or later I won't be able
to hide our friends.

I need to play the hand I've got.

Yeah, maybe, but what then?

Relax.

Want me along?

No, I'll go.

Ugh.

What does a man with everything care
about not catching a bum like me?

Because I have everything
and I can't seem to catch you.

I have the President behind me now.

If we work together, we can paint
a perfect tapestry, so to speak.

You know that's impossible.
So knock it off.

And leave me be. If you don't,
this bomb I'm holding may just go off.

You think the scraps of paper
Myongguk gave you can hurt me?

With the President behind me?

I doubt he'll want to protect you
from this particular bomb.

If he thinks it through, he'll choose
those close to him over you.

Am I wrong?

Take your best shot.

Fair enough.

Wait.

What do you want?

Leave Kim Punggil
and Jonghye's father alone.

And let Myongguk go.

You know what comes next.
It's your call.

Yeah?
Oh, yeah?

You see him?

What?

The President...
wouldn't see me.

He refused a personal interview?
Isn't that serious?

Jang is queering your pitch,
that's what it is.

What now?

Stop being so stubborn
and bow to Jang for now.

You could lose everything
you've worked for.

Try as you might,
you can't fight the tide.

And right now the tide
is Jang Cholhwan.

Kitae.

You okay?

I'll survive.

So what happened?

That atom bomb of yours scared
him enough to let you go.

He'll leave you alone now.

Thanks.

Forget it.
You saved yourself.

You rest up and we'll talk.

Right, I will.

Don't you need a doctor?

No, I'm good.
They work you over?

No, sir.
I'm just glad you're free.

Mr. Kang.

Oh.
You've had a time of it.

More like you did.
We had a nice rest.

There shouldn't be any problems now.

You didn't do anything stupid?

You don't have to worry anymore.

Jang's a schemer.
I don't like his letting us off so easy.

I've got him on a leash.
He's stuck.

A leash?
Like a dog?

I told Jonghye you were in Japan.

I see.

And my mom.

Good.
I didn't want her to worry.

Shall we?

- Mister.
- Hey.

Missus, Mr. Kim is back.

Hm?
Oh, there you are.

I trust you're well?

Of course. Did you wrap up
your business in Japan?

The emergency is over.

These strangers were rifling through
your things, it had me up upset.

Mister, she was awful worried.

Was she?

Pssh, worried?
You took off without a word.

I was just curious, is all.

...big mouth...

Still, it makes me feel good
that you were worried.

You'll be the first to know next time.

Oh, my, "the first"?
Have you eaten?

No, not yet.

Wait here,
we'll get you something.

Sijun?

Subong has the baby today.

You have a movie offer?

Uh-huh.

And?

I'm not sure.
I don't want to be a burden.

Burden-shmurden.
He's doing it for you.

I'm just not sure I can do it.

Mr. Lee.

Mm. Jonghye.

Father.

How are you?

Better now.

It's true. The doctors are surprised
at her progress.

Well done.

Things work out in Japan?

Of course.
I hate that I worried you.

I'm sorry.

Don't be. You must be tired.
Get some rest.

Mm, you're right.
I'll see you tomorrow.

- Gyongsuk.
- Hm? Yes?

Can I do it, you think?

Sure.
I have no doubt.

It would be nice for my dad to see it.

It sure would.
I know you can do it.

And Yu Chaeyong's recital?

We're promoting as the Chaeyong Show,
but we'll use a lot of our own artists.

I'm adjusting the schedules now.

Our joint production with
Taeyang Pictures?

Myongguk hasn't had time
to give us his decision.

I'll meet with him right way.

The list of foreign film imports.

We've applied for distribution rights and
should hear from the board next week.

Now about the Bitnara Town site.

They say if you're going to sign,
now's the time.

Draw up the contract.

Right.

- Hello.
- Doing all right?

I'm fine.
I'm sorry for all your trouble.

Trouble?
I had it easy.

This place looks like
a whole new hotel.

It's amazing the difference
a few interior changes can make.

You were the right woman for the job.

Right, Kitae?

Of course.

You're embarrassing me.

Listen, I wanted
to ask you something.

What's that?

You're management skills
go without saying.

I want to broaden your responsibilities.

Over what?

Mr. Kim is using his Japan
holdings to fund a scholarship.

I said I'd do it,
but Bitnara keeps me pretty busy.

We need your help.

You have a nice start in the hotel
business. Why not acquire more?

With your ability,
we could, naturally.

But I've made enough money.

I want to use it to do some good.

I understand.

I'll give it my full attention.

Thank you.

I'll give you all my files to date.

You're not washing your hands of it?

Of course not.
I'll help anyway I can.

He's here.

Hm. Sit.

Yes, sir?

First, a drink.

We both know how stupid
Suhyok is acting.

He wants me dead,
I won't sit still for it.

I have to act.

He's just about to lose everything.

Surely you don't want
to go down with him?

My sword is aimed at him, not you.

Don't let misplaced
loyalty ruin your life.

I'd hate to see a talented prosecutor
go down with Cha Suhyok.

The clock is ticking.

You still have time to join me...

before I strike.

The contract is signed?

Yep.

It feels great to finally break
ground on Bitnara Town.

You'll feel even better
when you're president.

President? Me?

Bitnara Productions
will be split into three parts.

You'll run Bitnara Management.

Bitnara Films, Miyon,
and Bitnara Music, No Sangtaek.

But me?
A highfalutin?

Who showed me the ropes in show
business? Who stuck with me?

You'll do great.

Mr. Kang...
Mister... Whoa.

Whoa!

What about me?

You?
I need you with me.

Live together,
die together, you mean?

No?

Nope, suits me fine.

What now?

We need to talk.

Well?

I'm putting you in charge
of my night clubs.

The Victoria, New Seoul and the Nipo
World we're opening in Kangnam.

I'm not the manager type.

Then you'll learn.

Give your boys steady work.
Han Jipyong's boys, too.

You can all go straight.

You can thank me.

I introduced you two.

Uh-huh.
You wanted me to get rid of him.

Pssh.
It worked out, didn't it?

I don't know how I'll do,
but live together, die together, right?

Thanks for trusting me.

Here.

You're so cool.

We're breaking ground
on Bitnara Town.

When it's done,
half my dreams will have come true.

And the other half?

You.

You all better, mother of our children,
doing the work you love.

Your dreams are
the other half of mine.

I'll do the movie.

I didn't want to be a burden at first.

I'm not worried about that,
I'd like to try.

But don't blame me if it's a flop.

Fair enough.
You let me worry about the box office.

Mr. Kang called.

Jonghye has agreed to do the picture.

Oh?
That's great.

Have you decided on a genre?

Miyon, have you seen Audrey Hepburn
in Wait Until Dark?

Yes.

She's blind in that film.

A lead with physical limitations
cranks up the thriller factor.

So I'm thinking a thriller
will work for us.

Jonghye in a wheelchair...

...a killer chasing her...

...a tall staircase...

What do you think?

I see where you're going with this.

But like I said,
I want something sentimental.

We should show the pain of our
heroine's real-life suffering.

I'm worried it will tank.

It won't. Not with me
promoting your screenplay.

Let's hold off until it's written,
all right?

Right.
I'm counting on it.

Sweetie.
My song hit #1 on the Top 50.

I heard.

Congratulations.

Sweetie.

It's pretty cool,
having a star for a girlfriend.

Here.

So pretty.

So I'm #1 and the record's a hit.

It's time to tell the press
I'm marrying my baby.

You mean it?

Mm.

What? Cold feet?

You kidding?
It's not that.

Hyebin,
I have a confession to make.

What?

Are you proposing?

Well, get on with it then.

Hyebin.

The truth is...

I was married before.

You were what?

- Are you married now?
- No, not at all.

I was in my twenties.
We got married, divorced.

But there was a child.

In high school now,
living with grandma in the country.

I should have told you.

- Sorry.
- "Sorry?" Like that's enough?

I know it's a shock.

But I couldn't marry you
without saying something.

I wish you hadn't.
I wish you'd kept it to yourself.

Sorry.

Truly.

What?
Taesu has a kid?

That's news to me.

Mr. No, what should I do?

Taesu is a strange guy.

Now he tells us he has a kid?

I swear, I can't even
go public with this...

or have them have a
secret wedding.

Sheesh, what now?

What do you mean, what now?

A high schooler?
Forget THAT.

Goodbye,
good luck and good riddance.

And what about Hyebin's baby, huh?

You want her to be an unwed mother?

I don't... oh, I don't know!

Hyebin, there's no easy answer.
Let's think on it.

You two watch your mouths.

Yes, sir.

Welcome. Mr. Yun is waiting.

He look odd to you?

How so?

In his eyes.
It's there all the time now.

Nothing gets past you.

Right?
I'm right, right?

What's wrong?

He's in a tough spot,
fighting with Jang.

Jang Cholhwan?

Thank you for your time.

For you, of course, anytime.

What's on your mind?

It's about Jang Cholhwan.

He's amassing too much power.

Not just his staff on
the Olympic committee.

He's using National Security personnel
for his personal vendettas.

He's gone so far as to involve himself
with the President's relations.

What?
The President's relations?

You know as well as I
what rumors are.

But this isn't gossip, it's a fact.
I have proof.

It's time you reined him in.

I hear you, I do, but if you're wrong
you'll have a fight on your hands.

- Now isn't the time.
- Sir.

Sorry, I can't help you.

What?

Come with us.

Where?

Mt. Nam.

Why should I?

You'll see. Well?
Escort the gentleman.

Sir.

Hands off.

I'll talk to Jang myself.

Too late for that.
Take him.

Let's go.

All right, wrap it up before
it turns into a problem.

Suhyok is headed to Mt. Nam.

What do you say?

I've given you as much time as I can.

I'm with you.

Of course you are.

I'll show you that you made
the right decision.

Is it true you're mixed up
with the Yongjin Group?

We met on party business.
Is that a problem?

We have evidence that
in addition to party donations

...they paid you a commission?

According to whom?

Other than your own
made-up scenario, I mean.

I never took any money.

Then what about this?

You tried to recruit a number of your
old college buddies into the party.

One of them is a professor
in Munich now.

Yesterday he was in North Korea
talking to Kim Ilsong.

Now why would you want a man
like that in the party, I wonder?

Not too bright, are you?

Think you can implicate me
in your tawdry little scenario?

You'll confess, sooner or later.

He's more stubborn than we thought.

It won't be easy to
make the charges stick.

You're being too easy on him.

Slap him around. Get me a confession,
one way or another.

But torture..?

I'll deal with the consequences.
Just do it.

Yes, sir.

Let's end this.

No one can hold out forever.

Oh?
Someone can.

I... I can...

You won't get anything out of me.

I'd rather die.

All right.
Faster than I wanted, but still...

Have it your way.

- Get him up.
- Sir.

Up, c'mon.

He's not talking.

Enlighten him.

Mr. Cha accepted commissions
to unify his old college friends...

with the intent to
conduct dissident activities.

Dosong.

It's no good fighting.
Sorry, Suhyok.

Suhyok is being questioned?
On what charges?

Receiving graft to rally his college
friends into dissident activities.

An absurd scenario,
an obvious ploy by Jang.

A blatant response to Suhyok's threat
to investigate the President's relatives.

But Suhyok is attached to the Blue
House. Can Jang get away with it?

He has the power now.

Who know what he'll do after this.

If he ruins Suhyok, there will be no one
to check him within the administration.

When that happens,
there will be no stopping him.

It's just as well.

Let them fight among themselves.

It's better for you that way.

But I feel dirty.

It's driving me insane.

You may still think of Suhyok as a friend,
but in the end he's no better than Jang.

It ticks me off seeing you
pout over him.

So bright, so much promise...

and look at him now.

Have you been drinking?

Oh, I just needed a drink.

You heard about Suhyok?

How did you know?

She went out earlier. Is it true that
Suhyok is under investigation?

Jang Cholhwan again.

Jang?

Wait,
why would he pick on Suhyok?

So... so what will happen?

Whatever Jang wants.

Isn't there anything you can do?

This will kill his mother.

Working at the Blue House
didn't help him, what can I do?

I'm nobody.
Night.

What's going on?

How could you?

He loved you more than his own...

How could you participate
in a plot to kill my father?

And you... killing for power...

How far will you go?

Tell Jang Cholhwan this from me.

Every drop Father bled in
the torture room, every scream...

I'll repay 100, 1,000 times.

What are you thinking?
What are you planning?

Wait for it.

Tonight Jang, Myongguk,
you... you're all finished.

Kitae.

You may think I've gone insane,
but you're wrong.

This is my best move.

Give yourself up.
I can help--

I've had enough of your help.

Say that again and
I really will go insane.

You don't understand. The assemblyman
is a bigger man than you think.

If I stick with him,
I can get what I want.

Such as?

Power.

Politics?

Jeez.
I didn't see that coming.

Fair enough. I know you'll do well. You
can do anything you set your mind to.

Kitae, Kitae!
What is it with you?

What's with you? What are you
doing with a guy like that?

Just trust me.
Can't you do this for me?

Hey, for you, anything.

But this isn't for you,
it's for him, now isn't it?

I can't do it.

Father...

What do you think? Will the President
step down at the end of his term?

He must.
It's in the Constitution.

Constitutions can be amended.

Well...

Men hate to lose power
once they have it.

Just you wait.
Talk of an amendment will start soon.

Shouldn't we stop it?

After his 7-year term is complete,
you can rise to power.

That's dangerous talk.

It's entirely possible.

If I want to,
there's nothing I can't do.

If you like, I'll draw up a plan.

There's plenty of time for that.

What about Suhyok?

I hope you won't take this wrong.

Go on.

If you hope to be the next president,
you need Cha Suhyok.

You'll need his abilities,
whatever you think of him personally.

I know he's got talent.

But he's betrayed me twice.

How can I trust him
to help me get the presidency?

Peter betrayed Jesus three times
before becoming his greatest disciple.

I believe you should use him.

You wanted me?
What is it?

You have the material I gave you?

Uh-huh.
I can't sleep at night.

Sunae asks what's wrong,
but I don't say nothin'.

I need it now.

You're putting an end to Jang?

No.

What do you need it for?

To make one last deal.

A deal?

Yes.

It's Kitae.

I've been meaning to call you.

I kept my end of the deal.
But I haven't heard from you.

I have one last condition.

What's that?

I'll tell you in person.

I laid off Kim Punggil, Lee Hyonsu
and Myongguk, just like you asked.

A last condition?
How long you going to keep this up?

I hold the sword.
You'll have to endure.

All right.
Name your condition.

Release Cha Suhyok.

What?
Suhyok is your final condition?

Yes.

How about that? What do you care
what happens to him?

That's not your concern.

All right. Done.

And lay off everyone else that I know.

Or we're back to square one.

Don't pull anything.

If you do, whether
I go down for it or not...

you're dead.

Mr. Jang is covering for you.

You're free to go.

Sorry for the trouble.

I hope you won't hold it against me.

You've had better days.

Why did you put yourself through that?

Saving you was a one-time deal.

Kang Kitae doesn't have
a hold over me anymore.

How do you mean?

Kang Kitae saved you.

Believe it or not,
the fool still thinks of you as a friend.

I wonder how he would react if he
knew you tried to have him killed?

Let me off here.

Kang Kitae saved you.

Believe it or not,
the fool still thinks of you as a friend.

I wonder how he would react if he
knew you tried to have him killed?

Oh, we're launching the
scholarship fund next week.

The hotel is hosting
the commemorative party.

That costs money.
I'd rather spend it on the scholarships.

It's just a small affair, don't worry.

Oh, and Ms. Song wants
to set you up with a lady.

A lady?

A marriage prospect.
A retired teacher, in fact.

A widow with two grown children.

One's a lawyer,
the other's a doctor.

Look at you.
Pretty sweet, Mr. Kim.

I'm not... I'm not interested.

Why not?

Well, no particular reason,
I'm just not, that's all.

I know why.

Why?

He's sweet on your mother.

She's sweet on him, too.
Am I right?

Really?

Kids today, they'll say anything.

Wait, hold up, hold up,
let me take this in.

How..?
Why didn't I notice?

Mother, 'fess up.

Is Sundok right?

Sheesh.

You should tell them.

Why should I..?
You do it.

All right. I will.

Ahem. We've been in love
for a while now.

With your permission,
we'd like to be married.

Is it... all right?

Look at you two.

To think we had no idea.

Mother, I didn't know
you had it in you.

Sorry.

You, too?
Sorry for what?

Congratulations.

Th-hank you.

Have you set a date?

Don't make fun.

Hey, I'm serious here.

Pick a date.

It's up to the lady.

Her Ladyship is already
calling the shots.

Oh, my stomach.

What now?

I don't know.

If you don't, who does?

Just marry the girl and be done.

I'd be ashamed to suggest it.

I can't ask Hyebin to be
mother to a 17-year-old.

You'd rather suggest
she be an unwed mother?

She's uncertain now, but she'll
listen to you.

Try convincing her.

Trust me. Talk to her.

The screenplay.

How is it?

See for yourself.

I never bawled like this before.

Artsy and big box office, two-for-one.

Uh-oh, now I'm worried.

Don't be, it's quite good.

Jonghye? She read it?

Yes. She liked it.

Give the okay, we'll cast
the male lead and get to work.

Mom... Mom...

Yujin.

Cut, cut!

Jonghye, Jonghye..!

You okay?

You all right?

You don't have to do that.

Just sit still and hug your daughter.

No.
Try it again, Jonghye.

All right.

Sorry, Songwon.
Let's try it again.

Sorry?
We're going again, standby.

Standby, move, move.

- When did you get here?
- Just now.

It's hard to watch.
You sure you're okay?

Yes.

Don't worry.
It will be fine.

Sir.

Here we go.

- Standby.
- Camera roll.

Action.

Yujin.
