Original subtitles

Every part of this country is rotten and insecure.

Isn't this a wonderful world?

A skimming heaven.

How can you skim money and steer clear of consequences?

Skim what others had already skimmed.

Only skim dirty money.

Let me see our services ledger for last month.

Why aren't you picking up? Where's my money?

Didn't we agree on a beautiful relationship?

There must be a faster way to rake in a billion wons.

TQ's looking for someone to be their accounting manager.

TQ Group?

This is my last message for you.

Listen to me carefully, Manager Lee.

They are only suspecting this company

because of an immoral accounting manager.

A troubled employee in accounting doesn't usually lead to a corporate wide search.

No matter how you think,

gambling and embezzlement just does not make any sense.

Who will be taking the manager's place?

Someone with balls who obeys you.

Someone we can get rid of without any trouble.

If I can get in that company,

and take over the department, skimming is a matter of time.

I know very well that I am not good enough.

Nevertheless, please give me a chance.

I will be a loyal and dedicated servant. If I'm useless, you can fire me.

What did you just do?

Don't you observe your surroundings? I was standing right here.

Did you have to throw the stick instead of putting it in the bin nicely?

It's about our ledgers.

He can always use those to blackmail you and strangle your neck.

Where is he now?

Fetch the copies and come to Flower Wagon.

It's a great day to die together.

-Right? -There he goes again.

Just open the damn bag!

-I don't want to die, either. -Fire!

Don't come after me. Don't you come after me!

Don't you...

Holy!

Hey! Where are the ledgers?

What the hell? Something's not right.

Boss, your voice sounds funny.

This must be the wrong gas.

HELIUM

Helium?

Gosh.

Tell me where the ledgers are!

There he is, get him!

Get him from the back!

Get him!

Take him down!

Go through here.

YOU ARE HIRED

TQ GROUP RECRUITMENT THE FINAL CANDIDATE

I did it!

I did it!

Jeg kommer!

-What... -I got the job!

Cheers!

Hooray!

Now go to a bigger world

and skim the hell out of it, Manager Kim!

I'll do my best to live up to your expectations.

You told me not to take the easy way. Yet, you applied alone!

I didn't take the easy way. I earned it with my skills.

If you come across a fine opportunity, let me know about it, okay?

Sure, you know my motto. "If it's good, it's worth sharing."

-You! -Yes, sir.

-Say something. -Yes, sir.

Congratulations, sir!

And also, I am deeply sorry.

-For real? -Yes, sir.

-Me, too. -Sorry, sir.

Hey, Kwang-sook.

As for the copies, give them to the boss tomorrow.

-Okay. -I'm sorry, Curly.

I'm loving this vibe.

This is just wonderful!

It feels like only good things are going to happen.

Boss?

Were you really going to slice me open?

What kind of world do you think we are living in?

-Hey. At least, it was fun. -No, it wasn't.

What? Yes, it was!

-Wait a sec! -Wait a sec!

I am writing this letter to apologize

for my insolent behavior towards Department Manager Lee Kang-sik

of Finance Department, which took place in the company building.

Ms. Yoon.

-Yes. -Here's the latest stock market gossip.

Take a look.

"It is likely that the suicide attempt was not real and was staged."

I know it's only a gossip, but it sounds so convincing.

Lies are supposed to sound more real.

Look at you, all agitated by a rumor!

Based on what we know about Manager Lee,

that rumor is more convincing than the news.

He always could tell right from wrong.

I say the gossip nailed it.

Like it says, I bet the suicide was staged.

-You guys are talking nonsense. -Also,

Mr. Lee might have left something.

-Huh? -Like a secret file.

Come on, now! Jason Bourne, anyone?

Even if there is, I'm sure it's gone by now.

Someone must have erased it.

Work-related files... Why are they all deleted?

Enough with the drama.

If there's something fishy, the authorities will look into it.

You can't trust them. They might be in on this.

That's a dangerous thing to say!

-Don't you trust the government? -Trust is supposed to be earned.

Only an idiot would trust them these days.

That's right.

We can trust no one right now. Right?

One man fits the standard.

-Kim Seong-ryong. -Another candidate has been chosen.

-Like I said, I'm in charge... -I know how to pick a perfect tool.

Just do as I say.

RESUME NAME: KIM SEONG-RYONG

GO MAN-GEUN

Any problem?

No, sir.

-Where did you find such an incompetent... -What?

No, what I meant to say was...

Where did you find such an incomparable talent

-as our new manager... -Stop it, I get what you're saying.

Are you telling me that you can judge a person by their background?

-What matters is his ability! -Of course, sir.

He starts tomorrow. Fill him in with job details.

Yes, dear.

No, I told you he's reapplying next year for a better school!

His life is going to be a failure if he goes to that shitty university!

If he goes to that school,

he is not my son anymore!

I'll get going, sir.

Did you hear the news? Seo Yul is resigning.

I thought he was moving to a law firm,

but you won't believe this. Do you know where he is going?

You scared me. Don't you know how to knock?

SEO YUL

Is it true? Are you going to TQ as their director?

Yes. Why?

Did you tip them off?

About my investigation? So they could get ready?

You think too highly of yourself.

Your investigation is too shallow, they didn't need any tipping off.

Out of good, okay and poor,

I give you poor.

Why does it have to be TQ? You know how that place is!

Are we any different?

Because TQ is a dirty company and we are the righteous authority?

Yul.

But you at least know how to win against those companies.

What use is that? Our bosses tell us to lose.

And they say that's how this world works.

You know their usual bullshit.

I would rather be openly selfish,

then be a hypocrite.

Stuffing my stomach and pretending that cowardice is order.

That's ugly.

Bye, then.

How can a man like this work in this department?

Well, he might be very skilled.

Are you out of your mind?

Look at him. He used to work in little corner shops.

How can he manage the great TQ?

Get out of here!

You know what?

I think personality is more important than skill and background.

If he is a cultured person who knows how to care

about others' feelings, I don't really care.

Good gracious. We seem to have a Buddha among us.

Aren't you just worried that you are going to have more work?

What?

That's not true at all!

By the way,

was your letter of apology accepted?

For the love of god, I want to smash them all!

Buddha is angry now.

SUICIDE ATTEMPT, COMA

TQ MANAGER

WHISTLE-BLOWER COMPANY DENIES

THE SUICIDE WAS STAGED!

I can smell something fishy.

I thought it was a clean company.

Holy!

"The Best University"? Is this real?

That's not a typo, is it?

I get why Mr. Choo was so angry after reading this, right?

What kind of person is this guy? "Deok-po Industries"?

What is this place?

I say it's a loan shark or a fraudulent company.

His background is weird but he might be a master in hiding.

Listen to yourself, man.

This is the company's plan to screw this department!

Is that it?

Oh, heck. I didn't waste my life to work for a man like this.

I feel shame all of a sudden.

Listen up.

If this guy shows up, don't treat him like a boss.

-Okay? -Okay.

-Crumple it. -Crumple it?

They were on top of each other.

-What about the ripped piece? -Never mind.

-I'm sorry to bother you. -It's okay.

Did you hear about the rumor?

Yes.

I told the cops about it, but they said I should ignore it.

Police would say that it's only gossip.

Everything about this is wrong.

They never showed me any proof about embezzlement and gambling.

And all the memory cards in his car disappeared after that day.

What did the cops say?

That they weren't there when the cops found the car, but...

I don't believe it.

Should we get a lawyer and go through the legal process?

I looked into it but no lawyer wants to be involved.

I'll see who I can find.

-Don't miss out on your meals. -Thanks, Ha-kyung.

Darn it.

I went through your letter.

I believe it lacks sincerity.

I wrote it sincerely with a sense of regret.

But I can't feel it.

It feels somewhat superficial and formal.

Please fix it one more time.

Ma'am, I have to work...

We put people and ethics before work.

Remember.

Put on a bright face!

When I come here, it still feels as if Mr. Chairman's alive.

I feel so, too.

I can feel Dad's warmth here, more than I can at home.

We should have the service at home from next year.

It will be much easier for you.

We'll see.

Honey.

I'd like to be there for the next stockholders' meeting.

Do you?

It's been a while, right?

Is there anything you'd like to check in particular?

No. I just miss the executives.

Just for one day.

Sure, do as you please.

Sorry, Dad, Mom.

-Something came up. -You.

You were never here on time

for your grandpa's remembrance services.

We can smell the alcohol, you know.

-How can you be so... -Baby!

I need to go wee-wee!

-I told you to stay in the... -I want to go to the toilet!

Dad?

When can we stop moving around?

Can't we stay in one place?

My dear son.

I want to live an honest life,

but my colleagues don't want me to.

That's why I'm looking for colleagues who can understand me.

Then you can just give up on living an honest life.

Wouldn't that be easier?

Sure, that would be easier.

But then, I don't think I could ever be a proud father to you.

Until I die.

KIM SEONG-RYONG

It's not that hard!

Three hundred!

-And twenty! -Twenty...

Two.

Here, yes!

-And this. -That, too?

Okay, then one and ten and...

What's wrong? Am I going to a war?

Thank you, Mr. Kim.

I used to pour coffee and people despised me, back then.

Then you came and made me an office worker.

I only hired you because you had studied hard.

I will be wise like you taught me.

-I will be diligent. -Good.

-And smart. -Yes!

-And be the perfect skimmer! -Hey!

That's the perfect attitude. I like it!

Mr. Kim!

Mr. Kim!

Your wife must have found out about the TQ Express sell-off.

And we tried so hard to keep it quiet.

If she sits in the meeting this time, she will persuade the shareholders.

We will have to execute the plan, earlier than we expected.

Sir, about Prosecutor Seo.

Do you really need him?

Why?

Because he is rude and stubborn?

I am aware, too. But what I need...

is someone who is good at catching thieves.

Because...

if that person becomes my thief,

no one will be able to catch him.

The new investigator came to say hi.

-Let her in. -Yes, sir.

-Is this her first day? -Yes, sir.

Hello, sir!

What a lousy, yet expensive room.

Ooh, soggy!

I'm in Seoul at last.

Hygge!

-You again? -You again? Hi, again.

I'm afraid I picked this up first.

Do I need to point out that you are wrong?

Why don't you just tell me the truth?

"I love Jeonju bibim samgak gimbap. It'd be nice of you to let me have it."

I have no reason to say such thing.

Hey!

We look so ridiculous!

-Is this a mature thing to do? -If it's so ridiculous, just let go.

Why don't you take tuna?

I'm allergic to tuna. You can have it.

I have tuna trauma. I had a frozen tuna stuck on my tongue.

-Nearly took the tongue out. -Now you are talking nonsense.

Oh, my god!

-This is so embarrassing... -Then let go.

Alright. Let's call it even.

-You messed up my noodle before. -You should've settled it then.

Are you saying no?

I thought you weren't the type to cause people trouble.

JEONJU BIBIM

Darn it.

Was it good?

Was it good?

The best triangle gimbap I had in three years.

That's a whole new level of nasty. It's very fresh.

-Why are you following me? -You wish.

We are just going the same way. Off you go.

What? She works here?

Man, he is persistent.

Excuse me, sir. What is your business?

I work here.

-I don't recognize you. Can I see your ID? -It's my first day.

-I'm picking it up at HR... -Please leave.

-Sorry? -Leave now.

This is my first day.

That lady says otherwise.

Wait...

Excuse me!

Hey, Triangle!

-Ms. Triangle! -Hey, mister! That's rude!

-You don't get it. Triangle! -Please come with me.

I am a rightful employee here!

Check with HR! Triangle!

Hey, Triangle! Say something, Triangle!

-The triangle lady got it wrong! -Be quiet! You're too loud!

-I'm telling the truth! Let go! -Okay!

Yes. I understand. Thanks a lot.

Why didn't you just say so?

I did tell you that I work here.

-That this is my first day! -You did.

But you were calling that lady Triangle,

-and thought you were harassing... -It meant triangle gimbap.

This... Darn it.

Not this triangle. This triangle!

I apologize, sir. In you go, sir.

HR is on the third floor.

Sorry, sir.

She better hide from me. Making me look like a pervert.

I'm sorry, sir. This elevator is for executives only.

Staff members and visitors can use the elevator near Gate B.

Executives only? Let me use it. No one's using it.

I cannot let you, sir. Please use the one near Gate B.

Good morning, Director.

It's my pleasure to welcome you on your first day.

UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS

You bastard! Who do you think...

He must be kidding me.

Yes.

Hurry up!

Double shot!

-You are... -Oh, hi. I am...

You are...

Where are you, Player?

How did you know where I am?

Get out of here!

Who is he?

He was following me into the lobby this morning.

No, what happened was...

-What's wrong with you people? -Young man!

If a lady says no, just knock it off. Okay?

She said no! You don't look like a stalker...

I'm the new manager.

I'm Kim Seong-ryong, the new accounting manager!

-Well, then why didn't you just... -Why does everyone ask me that

if they aren't going to listen?

-Well, you should've said so. -Sorry?

We're supposed to welcome him, guys.

I'm the department manager, Choo Nam-ho.

Nice to meet you, sir.

-Can I speak comfortably? -Yes.

I was going to, anyway.

Introduce yourselves.

I guess you guys are all extremely shy.

Alright, I'll do it. Start here.

Yoon Ha-kyung, Lee Jae-joon, Bing Hee-jin, Won Ki-ok, Seon Sang-tae. Okay?

That was exhausting.

Well, nice to meet you guys.

Just let me know if I'm somewhat inexperienced.

You should quit, then.

Sir, is this the whole staff for TQ Accounting Department?

-Even smaller companies have a dozen. -That depends on the company.

-You should quit if it bothers you. -No.

Small team means better communication.

-Where is my... -Forget everything else.

Let's start with the most important lesson.

Ki-ok and Sang-tae. Get ready.

-Yes, sir! -What...

Listen.

People above this red line.

They are heads of divisions and above.

If anyone above this line wants something, never ever question them.

If there are losses or omissions, you fill them in using your creativity.

I think I might become Captain Creativity.

I don't care whether you are a captain or a commander.

Now, pay your attention to this shit!

This person!

Deputy Head of Public Relations Division,

Park Meong-seok?

Not Meong-seok. It's Myeong-seok, okay?

Not the meongseok meaning rug, but myeongseok meaning smart.

Even though he is not.

Anyway, his budget requests are always to be granted,

whether it be for buying an air conditioner in the Antarctic...

Or a Buddhist percussion at a church, too?

Exactly.

I'm guessing he's the chairman's son or something.

Wow, you sure have a quick brain.

Easy-peasy. What if I turn him down?

He's going to flip out and...

He will very much be displeased.

Above the red line,

I see names with the pink triangles.

They are leaving here at any minute. You don't really have to care about them.

But if you think they are overspending, tell them off once in a while.

Who is that?

The one with the orange stripe.

What is this?

That's got to mean something big.

You wiped some spicy rice cake on it last time.

That's right! Yes! When Sang-tae first got here!

This little kid here bought wheat cake, not rice cake.

-Wheat cake rules. -Any cake is fine.

Memorize this in five minutes.

You are not allowed to take a photo or write it down.

-All done. -Really?

It's not too much.

You must be good at learning this kind of stuff.

Yoon can take care of his job briefing.

Well, he seems like a smart guy,

let's leave it up to him.

-You heard her. -I'll do just that.

If that's what you want.

From this moment,

Director Seo will be in charge of finances and investment.

-Give him what he needs, Go. -Yes, sir. I will support him well.

I will finish off the deals with the Chinese groups this month.

Oh, yes, about that. Director Seo will take care of it.

The job is more fitting to the director of finance.

But the Chinese are a little shy.

-We just got close... -I'll do it.

I'll get to know them.

Get some smart interpreters ready and hand the related files over to me.

Okay.

FINANCE DEPT

It's an honor to meet you.

Your reputation in the accounting world precedes you.

Reputation, my ass.

They must hate my guts for smashing all the accounting firms.

Are you three all accountants?

Yes, sir. We all used to work at Yoo-seong Accounting.

If you're from Yoo-seong,

you must be good at cooking books and lying together.

Right?

Don't ever question the orders I give you from now on.

Do you think I might be wrong? No way.

I am never wrong.

Starting today, this department is a part of a crucial mission.

Your lives are on the line, of course.

Got it?

Got it?

Yes. Understood, sir.

Sir, if you had lobster for snack and not dinner, it's not easy to...

Yes, sir.

The toll record shows that you went to Gangneung

but you wrote it down as gas money spent in Seoul.

Okay!

I'm saying the items list and the purchase list don't match!

Why do you need a tablet in General Affairs?

-Do you draw cartoons? -Massage costs are personal...

They don't go under welfare!

Oh, it was a meridian massage?

-I'm not sure... -Bastards are taking us for fools.

Tell them we can't do it!

Where are you, Player?

They eat, they play and they come to us.

Are we here to make things up?

They are asking us to make new catalogs!

TOO BAD

Oh, crap. Just half-ass it.

No, we are not half-assing!

Tell them we can't process anything without proof.

-Yes, ma'am. -Okay.

This is complete chaos.

This department is a giant pushover.

They are hopeless.

-That's why this happens! -You can't do that.

-What do you want me to do? -Rules are rules.

SHRIMP SHRIMP

Hello...

The elevator...

I'm sorry. I didn't recognize you.

You worked for Bae Deok-po?

It's guys like you I need in an interrogation room.

I was a prosecutor a week ago.

You love prosecutors, don't you?

I know the guy in Gunsan who is investigating you.

But since you cover up the tracks so good,

he is pissed off that he can't arrest you guys.

I don't understand what you are saying.

Cut it out, man.

Are you playing stupid with me?

No, sir. I took the test and got the job, fair and square.

"Fair and square"?

Fair and square...

Why do you think...

I picked...

a trash like you?

So it was you.

To use you to restore economic order?

I would never think so.

It's simple.

You are used to doing dirty stuff.

So I picked you.

-You came here to skim more money. -That's not true.

Okay, you can skim as much as you want.

Just don't get caught.

But you need to do a job in return.

A job no one else should know about. Not even your colleagues.

The finance manager will see you tomorrow. Follow his instructions.

-You can leave. -Yes, sir.

What the hell is this?

I feel like a shot of bidet water hit me in the wrong place.

It feels icky.

Oh, whatever. I'll meet the finance manager first.

Ms. Hong Ka-eun.

-Is this your first intern? -Yes.

Your scores are fine,

and your accountant license is fresh.

Why not go to an accounting firm?

General companies are better than accounting firms.

I can experience various tasks that are not limited to accounting.

Your work starts tomorrow. Stop by HR before you come here.

Thank you, ma'am!

I'll do my best. Yay!

Why are the receivables and payables not in order for last year's Q4?

-You guys don't know the basics. -Don't say that.

They deal with a lot of work. They can make mistakes, right?

Don't say hurtful stuff to my guys.

I don't know about other departments, but you shouldn't mess up!

The numbers were wrong before we received them.

-It is not our fault! -Yoon!

Want to write another letter?

Don't even think about getting home!

-Finish it by tomorrow morning. -Alright.

-I'll bring it to you myself. -The new manager?

Yes. You are...

Department Manager for Finance. Lee Kang-sik.

Okay.

I said tomorrow morning!

Close the door!

Gently!

Kang-sik, that bastard. Always bossing us around.

I should punch him!

I'll do the job, sir. Can you throw me a welcome party?

Excuse me?

Do you think this is the right time for a party?

A welcome party?

-Let's do it. -Huh?

Let's party.

-Seven o'clock. Come to Natbam. -Natbam?

Yes, sir.

-Are you coming? -I have an appointment.

I thought so. I will see you guys later.

He wants to do everything. A welcome party, seriously?

Can't he read the room?

I think he is inconsiderate. He doesn't care about others.

-Aren't we being too obvious? -We don't want him to be bossy.

If we treat him like a boss, I bet he's going to act up.

Yeah. What should we eat today?

-How about pork belly? -You had meat yesterday.

-You have to eat meat every day. -Yeah.

Where is Sang-tae, anyway?

-I didn't send him the message. -Why not?

If we are not going, we need the rookie to be there at least.

Where is everybody?

Is it just me?

Hey, Sang-tae.

Oh, hi.

Why are you alone? Please sit.

I think it's the two of us. The others are busy.

Well, at least we are here. You can take your bag off.

Excuse me, can we see the menu?

-You majored in philosophy? -Yes.

I couldn't get a job,

so I studied accounting for two years,

got my license and got here.

Aristotle. A young man of wisdom and knowledge. Amazing.

-You are just saying that. -No, I'm not!

It's not hard to guess that you're popular among women.

Your facial muscles are beautifully balanced.

But no.

I never had a girlfriend since when I was in the army.

She said she would wait,

but then met another guy and came to see me.

How can she do that?

Gosh, so that's what happened.

You don't go with bare feet when buying new shoes.

You go with your old shoes and swap them.

-Say ah. -Ah.

You dirty little...

-She's so bad! -What a bad girl!

-Gosh. -Women should cut down on coffee!

They always say they already had coffee.

Many of them are addicted to caffeine, you know.

I ask them out for a movie and they say they had seen it.

-But it's not out yet. -A preview?

-Oh, a preview. -Yes, hey.

How is she?

-Wow, she's pretty. -Isn't she?

She used to work with me in Gunsan, and she is a catch.

She's honest, not greedy,

-great at pouring coffee... -Huh? Coffee?

Used to be a barista. Want a date?

What? Um, yes.

You are perfect for Kwang-sook! Look at the camera.

One, two.

Huh? It's Mr. Kim!

Oh, come on, Mr. Kim!

He knows what type I like!

This guy looks just like a nerd.

And nerds are boring.

Well, he's kind of cute.

How do you like Kim?

Don't like him?

Why not?

I thought personality was more important than skills. Am I wrong?

Manners, consideration, sophistication. He lacks every one of those.

Hold it there. Don't pour it yourself.

-Mr. Choo. -Yes?

Do we have to do the giant paper briefing every time a new staff comes in?

-It's really embarrassing. -We have to!

That giant paper is saving our asses.

We teach the others to be precise and thorough all the time.

But you and I always follow orders and do as we are told!

No matter how crappy they are!

Hey, before I come to work every morning,

I take my heart and my guts out and put them in the fridge.

I'm pissed every day, too!

But I have no choice. We all have to make a living.

I think I've hit rock bottom.

I don't know how much more I can take.

Ha-kyung, let's just hang in there a bit more.

I want to do something meaningful for once.

TO THE DIRECTOR OF FINANCE ON FLOOR 24, NOW!

My first obstacle.

You need to do a job in return.

A job no one else should know about. Not even your colleagues.

Yeah, I think he might trip me over.

Better play along.

BIG DOUCHE

Do they have to pour water on the ground in the morning?

Gosh, this is embarrassing.

Good morning!

-Mr. Kim! -Yes.

-Great to see you. -Yes, Sang-tae.

-Are you feeling well? -Yes. I'm great.

We should have some octopuses next time.

That'd be great, sir.

I will be taking these to the Finance Department.

See you, sir!

What's with the sudden fraternizing?

-Seon Sang-tae. -Yes.

What has gotten into you?

How did you get close to Manager Kim?

We had a drink last night.

I think he's a great person.

-He knows a lot about humanities... -Sang-tae.

Did he fix you up with a girl?

-No, he didn't. What? -Look at him.

I think I hit the jackpot. Right?

I said no. I'm not a sucker for...

-Do you like women? -No.

-I do. -I do, too...

I don't know!

-Yep, he's guilty. -Yes, he is.

He got himself a date.

Is this funny?

Mr. Chairman!

We don't need any money from you.

But you have to tell the truth to the world!

Who is that?

She's the wife of the injured manager.

The gossips are true, aren't they? You know what happened to my husband!

Get her out of here already.

If you don't tell the truth, I will be revealing it myself!

-Mr. Chairman! -Su-jin!

Mr. Chairman!

Get your hands off! She's the wife of an employee!

You could have gotten hurt.

I have no one on my side.

I have to do something,

or no one will reveal the truth.

This is Assistant Manager Yoon.

Who did you say you were?

Could we meet tonight for a moment?

Whoa. It's almost like a different world.

Manager Kim?

Yes.

Intern, come here.

-To General Affairs. -Okay.

Ka-eun. Give this to Lee.

-Thanks. -Okay.

Wow, this place has a coffee machine.

Are those macaroons?

You had a reason to come here today.

If you don't have one, we will only be talking on the telephone.

Yes, sir.

Those are financial statements from last year audit for TQ Distribution.

You will also find an instruction file describing your role.

Why are you giving this to me?

Go through the files first.

You will see how things went last year,

and what will happen this year.

Some spoilers, please?

You will be making things up and managing them, as we tell you.

After checking the files, you will have to be more discreet.

If it leaks out, it will be on the front page news.

Do you understand?

What happened here?

I'm picking up a strong vibe here. They must be scamming big time.

Which is good for me.

A small-time scammer like me will go unnoticed.

Sorry! I'm really sorry!

-Sorry? -Off!

Oh, get it off?

INTERN HONG KA-EUN

-Intern? -Yes.

Don't spill your coffee again.

I'm so sorry!

Huh?

Why are you walking like that?

They say walking like this once a week is good for your health.

So that's why.

I was wondering if you got hit in the balls.

Please come.

I will be waiting.

-What's in your head, Ms. Yoon? -Never mind.

Never mind, of course. None of your business, you know?

People, if you have any work

that is too much or too hard to handle, toss it to me.

So you are all good.

Maybe not.

Maybe they trust themselves more than they trust you.

-Ms. Yoon, is there anything I can... -Nope.

If you want work, Kim...

I have some things you can take care of.

This is no joke!

ASSET

TERM 61 TERM 62

What's this?

Why did they give this to me?

Could it be...

LIKELY THAT THE SUICIDE ATTEMPT WAS STAGED

It is.

This is the reason.

TQ SHOULD TELL THE TRUTH TRUTH NEVER DIES

My husband's suicide attempt was staged.

My husband was not an embezzler, nor a gambler.

He was a dedicated accounting manager for this company.

I shouldn't do it. The job is too dangerous.

I will just try to buy some time and get away when I get a billion wons.

Please give me help.

If you took care of things like you said, why is that woman approaching me

and even putting up that picket show in front of the company?

-She even held a press conference. -Sorry, sir.

Public Relations had blocked the reporters but a minor Internet media showed up.

Do you think blocking the reporters is enough?

The rumor has spread overseas already.

Just do something about it.

I will not tolerate this happening in my front yard.

A non-violent single-person protest is legally unstoppable.

Taking care of legal setbacks so we can do our work.

Isn't that your job?

No, people like you should deal with little problems.

I'm busy with more urgent tasks.

You should think of a reasonable solution to make this go away.

Oh.

Don't come up with old-fashioned ideas. I won't allow that.

WHISTLE-BLOWER WRONGED SUICIDE ATTEMPT? MURDER ATTEMPT!

Can't we do anything about her?

Well, she's alone and not using force, so we have no reason to stop her.

And as you can see, she's not even on the company grounds.

For crying out loud.

Ma'am, you shouldn't be doing this.

Didn't you see the news?

-Your husband used the company funds... -If,

one more word comes out of your mouth, there is no knowing what I'll do next.

Darn it.

I am sorry for calling you and asking you to visit a stranger.

No, it's fine.

Would you care to listen to my gripe and my request today?

-I don't know what you're referring to. -This might sound vague,

but it's about righting a wrong.

I have heard a lot about you.

You are a skilled person, who understands the value of principles.

And above all, you cannot let injustice go by.

How would you know about me?

I have a lot of ears in this company.

When I saw you for the first time,

I knew that I want you by my side.

You know we can't leave Manager Lee's wife like that.

She deserves justice.

By justice, do you mean to say

that something about this is wrong?

What exactly do you want me to do?

I need you to find evidence of the company's accounting fraud.

Those who are leading this fraud are undermining the company.

And TQ Group is slowly crumbling.

-If that's the case, I'm not the one... -The authorities fight for the strong.

And I am far from strong.

-But ma'am, I am not fit for... -Your skills are good enough.

And I will be gathering more allies.

I'm sorry, ma'am.

I don't think I'm the right person.

God, it's cold.

Director.

You're late!

I'm sorry. It's so cold up here.

Yeah, whatever.

Did you read the files and learn your job?

Yes.

Hey. You don't want to do it, eh?

No.

-Pardon? -Hands out.

Your plan is to back out, skim money and run away, right?

That is not what I'm planning.

Do you have any idea how many scums like you I had seen?

You scums always back out and run away with your loots.

-That's not me. -If you don't do it, you're going to jail.

If I start looking into things you had done in Gunsan,

I guarantee that you will get at least seven years.

Do you think I'm sloppy like the prosecutor in Gunsan?

Simply put, you should do as I say.

You can pocket as much money as you want. I won't care.

-Yes, sir. -Another thing.

Don't ever draw attention or do stupid things.

-Always stay low. Got it? -Understood, sir.

-We've got this. -Yes.

Uh, it's cold!

Uh, it's cold.

Cute kid. Do you think you can scare me?

I'm going to skim like a ninja and head off to Denmark!

Su-jin!

Su-jin!

-Are you okay? -Yeah.

Oh, my god.

-Are you okay? -I'm fine.

Are you okay?

Blood!

Is... Is this hot sauce?

Hello!

Good man!

He's a good man!

THUD! BAM!

MOM'S SPICY RADISH ON MY MIND TONIGHT

MOM, I MISS YOUR SPICY RADISH SO MUCH I'M BLEEDING SPICY RADISH, HA-HA

This is your final warning. Don't draw any attention ever again.

Stay in the corner and wait for my order like a shit cleaner that you are!

Shut your mouth, jerk! I'll rip out your throat!

Ooh, my scalp.

How can the footage of the accident be deleted?

This is a reasonable doubt.

Remember his criminal record and his attitude.

First, you are to approach Kim Seong-ryong and become friends.

Okay. I should get it together and start from scratch.

I am a good man.
