Original subtitles

Today, I'm here to reveal the scammers' true colors.

How can we keep our children safe

from these hellish drugs?

Tawan, you have come much further than I expected.

Your dream

has come true.

Thank you!

Whoa! It's loud!

Get out!

Why did those people act like I was the killer?

Why do bad things happen to my friend?

Give us a freaking break!

I'll invest in your business.

Thank you so much.

We're going to talk about the occupation

that is the talk of the town in this recent era.

Hello.

That's Shin, Tawan's friend.

The one who bought ad spots on Tawan's show

is Shin?

What we're doing next is

being creative with our tie-ins.

Don't make the viewers feel forced into it.

This is the format of the show.

We'll introduce the audience to Mr. Chane's true self.

That's his extreme way of living. Work hard, play hard.

Let's introduce them to his lifestyle.

Make them feel connected to him.

Once the viewers get to know him,

they will feel the urge to participate

in his company's online games.

That's better than selling directly.

Are you okay with this idea, Mr. Chane?

What about you, Miss Tawan?

I'm confident in our team.

They will make the viewers know who you are in more ways than one.

If you're confident in this, then so am I.

That's awesome, Mr. Chane.

(This is Mr. Chane and his hobby.)

(Hello.)

My hobby is drifting.

Why is that?

Speed makes me feel free.

It feels like conquering the whole world,

the world that has always felt cruel to me.

So that means

before you became this successful,

it wasn't easy, right?

It wasn't.

I'm a fighter, but life fights me harder.

There were times when I felt down

and was about to give up.

(Who is the inspiration that has kept you from giving up?)

(I have a good friend.)

(This friend of mine gave me a new home.)

(They gave me love and warmth.)

(They pushed me)

(to win a scholarship abroad.)

(Who would have thought)

(that someone with a poor upbringing like me)

(would have come this far, right?)

(If your friend hears this, they will be really proud of you.)

If you're watching this show,

I want to thank you

for not leaving me when I hit rock bottom.

Today, I've made it.

All of this is for you.

I want you to be proud of me.

If possible,

I would like to be there for you for the rest of my life,

just like I promised.

If they hear this, they will be really happy

that you never forgot about them.

I think they heard me.

Thank you so much, Mr. Chane.

(We'll see you again tomorrow.)

(I'll introduce you)

(to another side of Mr. Chane.)

Don't forget.

We have a meeting this afternoon.

I won't. What about you? Are you ready for your life changing project?

I'm so ready.

I'm ready to change my life.

Okay.

I heard it's hard to get a reservation here.

Don't you need to wait for months?

Apparently, celebrities like to come here.

With Mr. Chane, it's not that hard.

Would you do me the honor of joining me for dinner, Miss Tawan?

Of course, Mr. Chane.

Please.

What's wrong?

Rich people eat this much?

I ordered the most expensive course. Let's eat up.

Is it good?

Thank you.

One each.

You eat it all in one go?

I can't.

It's so soft.

Right?

I'm going to get fat.

Hey, eat this first.

We both came a long way.

From country kids who drank coconut milk on ice, to...

Look around.

We're dining here tonight.

It's incredible. It's like a dream.

Do you think we'll still be here when we grow up?

For me?

I want to stay. I want to be with Grandma and become a baker.

More importantly,

I like to look at Mekong River. I can stare at it all day.

It will never bore me.

What if you get rich when you grow up?

Won't you move somewhere else?

I'd still want to stay here.

Maybe I'll buy a riverside property

and build a new house for the three of us.

Your life's going to be so boring.

What? Why?

So...

What about you?

Well, I want to get rich and figure it out later.

What about you, Tawan?

I want to live in Genovia.

Like in "The Princess Diaries".

That's not a real place.

- It's a fictional country. - Yeah.

America would do then.

It's civilized. Maybe someone would tell me,

"Miss Tawan, you're actually

a princess from this country."

- America? - Yeah.

- Me too! - Let's go?

If you're a princess,

you need a bodyguard.

- Hey! - Good!

Why are you all leaving me?

- Let's go. - Why are you leaving me?

Na, it's just our dreams.

Let's be real.

We'd be lucky if we could save up and take Grandma to Bangkok.

If that's the case,

I'll be your gardener.

- Good. - What would I be?

You? Na?

You're good at cooking and ironing.

You're the butler!

- No! Why would I be a butler? - Hey!

Don't worry. All three of us will be together.

Right?

But you're the butler.

I won't be.

- It suits you. - Don't bully him.

Yes, Master.

Mr. Shin, this is an interview.

Do you still dream of living abroad?

You hit me.

If I keep making money, I'd like to try it.

If I make as much as you do, I'd follow my dream.

I didn't say

that it was my dream.

You once said

you wanted to live abroad,

like the girl in "The Princess Diaries".

How can you remember that?

You told me

that you wanted to dine in a place like this.

I remember. That's why I took you here.

You said you wanted a car.

I bought one for you to ride.

What else do you dream of?

You wanted a big house?

I'll make all of your dreams come true.

Why would you make my dream come true?

What about yours?

Because my dream

is to make you happy.

I'm already happy as I am.

You saved me from getting fired.

You took me to dinner.

This is enough for me.

Thank you, my dear friend.

Let me see. How much do we pay each?

Is this correct?

A black card?

Wait. What's this?

It's my tip for the waitress.

Mr. Chane.

What would you like, sir?

Please wait for me, Tawan.

I'll make you proud

like Shin did.

What are you standing there for?

You spooked me.

I bought the condo with two bedrooms,

and you still live like you always did.

So what?

I'm paying you in installments, but I own this place too.

The owner can choose where he sleeps, can't he?

Do what suits you.

I don't want to argue.

Why are you here?

I'm here to pick up Tawan for a meeting.

Are you her boss now?

No. I'm her colleague.

Want a coffee?

Yeah. Make it strong.

Say what you want.

It's time I tell you

about Tawan.

We had an agreement.

I'm following my own heart.

I'll take care of Tawan.

I'm telling you first

because you're my friend.

If you're not okay with that,

let's try to win her over like men.

Our agreement was that

Tawan would be the one to decide.

That's right,

but I need to know

if you're going to help me or compete with me.

I don't think I can help you.

So that means

you're up against me.

Today, I'm not here alone.

I have a special guest just for today.

Please welcome Miss Tawan.

Hi.

I'll be your new host for this event.

Miss Tawan, everybody.

Tawan.

You will have to join me at every membership event now.

Look at today's event.

We break a record for new members.

Really?

Of course.

Your image

gives me a lot more credibility.

It's not because of me.

It's your talent.

It's not.

It's your talent too.

When we're together, everything is always good.

Shin and Tawan, okay?

Okay.

Make me confident in you.

I'm going to make this place a ladies club

where we provide all kinds of services

for all the women's needs.

Starting with

the entrance.

Wow! They're handsome!

They got abs!

Heck yeah! This is a good spot!

That one's great!

You're so hot!

And I'll make this spot

the drink auction area.

Do you ladies want company tonight?

Tonight, our guys

are good at giving massages. Their weak point?

It's all of you girls!

Fifty drinks!

A hundred!

Two-fifty drinks.

Two-fifty!

Three hundred drinks!

Here we go, guys! I'm a member, member, member!

If a customer wants privacy,

I have a VIP zone for that.

A VIP room?

Cool, fabulous, marvelous! I want to be a member so bad!

- Stop that. - Okay.

I believe now.

When someone gets to do what they are good at, their work will be good.

I believe in your capabilities, Mana.

Thank you, Miss Narin.

I won't let you down.

A capable man

deserves an opportunity.

What do you think, Ford?

I won't be disappointed. You're good at this.

You deserve this opportunity. Whoa!

Why are you asking me that?

You had me at the entrance.

We're going to join forces

and make this place the talk of the town.

Let's go!

Yeah!

(Maleenont Tower)

(Office for rent 02-260-6996)

Tawan's show

gets the highest ratings!

After Shin got on her show,

everyone is now interested!

It's not just the ratings, Mom.

Everyone in the world knows Shin!

They know him as a passionate young businessman.

Whatever he touches turn to gold!

Penny!

I summoned you here

not to ask what you think!

I want to know what you've been doing!

(Nakin)

You want Mr. Chane to buy more ad spots with us?

I do. That's why I called all of you in here to figure out how.

We don't need to figure anything out.

All it takes is for Tawan to ask him.

You're very close to him, aren't you?

Our online gossip team has been writing about you two.

Have you read it, Nakin?

Not every gossip is true.

Let's ask the girl herself. What's going on, Tawan?

Do you have a close relationship with him?

I don't care what your relationship is, though.

If you can make Mr. Chane buy more ad spots in our station,

this will be your accomplishment.

I will.

But that's not Tawan's job, Dad.

It's a job for the marketing team.

What is the marketing team supposed to do

if you expect a news anchor like Tawan to do their job?

If this is all,

I'm going back to work.

- Let's go, Tawan. - What if I can reward you, Tawan?

If you can make Mr. Chane

buy more ad spots in our station,

I'll make you the number one news anchor at Amnat-anan Station.

Yes.

I'll try to convince Mr. Chane to buy more ad spots with us.

Then that's settled.

(If you can make Mr. Chane)

(buy more ad spots in our station,)

(I'll make you the number one news anchor on Amnat-anan Station.)

I'll make more reality shows

about Shin's personal life

on top of what we're doing now.

Why?

I want people to know more about his business.

The people need to know about every aspect of his life.

This will build trust.

When they trust him, they become his followers.

I disagree.

We shouldn't reveal too much about his life.

Did you forget

about the past you don't want anyone digging up?

Do you want people to know you're an ex-con?

I disagree.

We should let them see Shin's success,

and his interesting personal life.

That will make them forget his past.

Can you guarantee that will happen?

What if it backfires?

Can you take responsibility?

- Don't just think about ratings. - Stop it, Thep.

This is my own decision to make.

What's your idea?

We need to present your life in an interesting way.

Make people so curious about who Mr. Chane is

that they question what this man does,

how he lives,

and how he becomes a billionaire in such a short time.

Sounds interesting.

I have one condition.

You must be on that show with me.

So have you convinced Mr. Chane to buy more ad spots?

He agrees.

He will also buy any available ad spots that we have.

Are you sure

they won't ask for a discount later?

Yes, I am.

Mr. Chane also requested to produce more programs.

Tawan made Shin buy more ad spots?

So she will be the main anchor when it should have been me?

Why didn't you stand up to your brother?

The main news anchor should have been me!

If you make yourself worthy of that spot for your Uncle Nakin,

you wouldn't have to stand here and complain!

I did everything as you said.

If it's not good enough,

it's time you take a look at yourself.

Penny!

This is not the time to fight among ourselves.

We need to stop her.

What can we do, Mom?

Everyone puts her on a pedestal.

We can't attack her directly.

We need to target someone else.

Aren't you curious about Shin?

How did he get so rich?

What job can an ex-con like him possibly do

to make him rich in a short time,

if not the dirty stuff he used to do?

You think he's back to dealing drugs?

It's your job to find out.

Dig up what he did in prison,

who he hung out with,

what he did after his release,

and who he works for.

Dig up everything about him.

Since Tawan is promoting Chane's good side,

we will expose his life in prison.

Won't that hurt the station?

He's our main client.

Make it poison coated in chocolate.

Present it in a good way.

Don't you realize how easy it is?

This is my home.

It sure is nice. Take a look at this.

I'm here to give a presentation.

Hi, everyone.

We're going to make you rich!

We're going to make you...

See you at home.

- Mr. Chane, this way. - Take a selfie with me, please!

Excuse me.

My guest today is

Miss Tawan.

Hi.

Hi. Please sit down.

How is it?

It looks really appetizing.

I'll need to taste it first before I comment.

Okay. Of course.

Thanks for the food.

You knew Mr. Shin, right?

Shin? Of course. I knew him well.

This guy's brain was second to none.

Nobody messed with him.

He didn't mess with anyone, either.

I'm not surprised he became a millionaire.

This guy had ambitions.

Do you know the woman in this photo?

She's Tawan, a reporter.

- She visited Shin regularly. - Thank you.

(Mr. Rachane Hakwamsat and Mr. Shinnawut Koorawee,)

(a former inmate on drug charges, are the same person.)

(Mr. Chane was jailed for almost five years,)

(yet he didn't waste his time.)

(He was determined with his studies and got a bachelor's degree)

(to improve his life after prison.)

(He became a hugely successful businessman.)

(He's well-respected and became a young millionaire in a short time.)

You told me to sit back and count my money,

and this is what you do?

Boss, the news spoke about him in a good way.

Good way, my butt!

Did you hear her at all?

Think about it.

If people find out Shin is an ex-con,

the word "ex-con" will be written on your face!

It will never go away!

Your image that I built

is ruined from now on!

Shin.

Everything about you,

your honesty,

your trustworthiness,

it's all gone! What do you have now?

Ex-con!

Liar!

I'm sorry I didn't ask you first.

Good.

At least

you know you were wrong.

But this sucker!

Why?

Why didn't you stop him?

I told you to take care of him.

You piece of crap!

Boss.

Stop that, Boss.

Thep did warn me.

Give me some time. I'll fix this.

It's because of me.

That's why Miss Panida and Penny targeted you.

They're jealous of me becoming the main anchor.

I'm sorry.

It wasn't because of you.

It wasn't your fault.

It was those two's fault.

They got desperate and fought dirty.

They will find out they were wrong to do this.

Please tell me about Shin.

Okay.

Shin always sat there and studied.

That image is stuck on my mind.

I've never seen any who worked as hard.

He told me he wanted to graduate.

Shin is a really good guy.

When I got sick,

he was the one who brought me medicine.

I've seen your success.

I'm really glad and happy for you.

(Don't let the past of this place bring you down.)

(Do your best. All of us here are rooting for you.)

(Mr. Rachane, or Shin Koorawee.)

(I've known him since we were kids.)

(I've always seen his growth. He's honest.)

(He doesn't pretend.)

(Although he had a hard life,)

(he fought and worked hard)

(until he made it.)

(He never let his past mistakes stop his dreams.)

- Mom. - (He had to persevere)

(and developed himself.)

(That's how he became Mr. Rachane that you all know and love.)

(Shin worked hard on his business)

(because he wanted to prove that)

(people like us can get rich too.)

(I would like you to hold Mr. Rachane as an example.)

(He represents failures.)

(He believes in making tomorrow better.)

(That's how you become successful like him.)

(I'm Tawan Chaisaengrak.)

Tawan took what I did and twisted it into her own show.

She even did it better.

She also restored Shin's ruined reputation!

Well done. Come on.

- Yeah! Oh, man! - Yes!

Everyone is waiting for you!

- Flowers for you. - Thanks.

All of us want to thank you, Mr. Chane...

Mr. Shin, don't give up.

- Don't give up! - Keep fighting!

- Don't give up! - Keep fighting!

- Guys! - Yeah!

Thank you, everyone,

for your trust and belief in me.

I promise,

from this moment on,

I'll make this company even better!

- Let's go! - Yeah!

- Yeah! - Let's get rich!

This is it!

Shin.

I got a lot of VIP request notifications.

We need more servers now, pal!

We need more servers, guys!

- Let's get more! - Yeah!

Good job.

- Here. - Cheers.

Shin.

Let me tell you. You're amazing!

You fixed this even better than I expected.

We have Tawan to thank for that.

She came up with that presentation.

She fixed everything.

I'm going to invest more in you.

I'll launch a new product with you too.

- Cheers! - Thanks!

Boss.

If you want me to launch a new product,

can you give me a bigger cut?

Will that be a problem?

Who does Shin think he is?

Negotiating with me?

I'm just tricking him into feeling comfortable.

When he does something stupid again,

I'm going to get rid of him with no more second chances.

- Good morning, Miss Tawan. - Good morning.

Good morning, Mr. Chane.

No, Mr. Shin.

I prefer Shin.

Yes, Mr. Shin.

I saw Miss Tawan's show. It gave me inspiration to fight on.

Keep up the good work.

You too can be successful.

- Yes, sir. - Right.

You don't have to come in.

Bye.

Tawan, what time do you get off work? Call me.

I don't even know.

It's okay. Just call me.

Don't forget.

- Bye. - Bye bye.

Penny.

There are two ways one can get rich.

You need to be either evil or lucky.

I'm sure Shin is the former.

We need to teach him to know his place.

What's your idea?

This time,

we can probably strike both Shin and Tawan.

It's two birds with one stone.

It's done.

Wait a second. I'll pack it for you.

Your coffee is extra strong today.

(Don't forget to eat your lunch.)

Okay. I'm about to eat.

Tawan.

We have an emergency. The news team is short-staffed. Come with me.

Okay.

You can't come in.

Sorry, you can't come in.

- I'm with the media. What's going on? - Yes.

It's an attempted suicide.

This is the letter she left.

She said she's addicted to online gambling.

She can't pay for the loss. This is how she decides to end it all.

I'm feeling some pulse.

- We'll rush her to the hospital. - Okay.

Here. The money that you want so much.

How could you dare be my tutor?

Maggie?

You know her?

Yes.

- Okay. Please rush her to the hospital. - Yes, sir.

A student attempted suicide.

The reason is online gambling addiction.

(It's disguised as a video game.)

(This type of business is becoming a threat to our society,)

(especially to immature youth.)

(We'll keep you updated for further development. I'm Tawan Chaisaengrak.)

Thep.

Did you see the news?

Tell Shin and our guys to be careful.

Trust me. Soon enough,

the police will investigate this.

I'm shocked to see her like that.

Miss Panida?

Do you remember Captain Ron?

Good afternoon, Chief.

Good afternoon.

Good afternoon to you too.

It's been a long time.

You've become the main reporter.

What do you want with me, sir?

The marketing team

has received funds from the Department of Justice

to publish news

on online frauds.

There have been more and more victims.

Our station will work with the Crime Suppression Division.

(Scammers' Timeline)

An online business that tricks people into paying?

I want you on this news.

Captain Ron will be your advisor.

- I'll get an experienced... - The Minister

requested this himself, Paul.

He wanted Tawan's "Searching for the Truth" show

to be the program that presented this.

Right now,

Tawan is our number one.

What am I supposed to do?

It's fine.

I can do this.

Thank you so much for understanding, Tawan.

Then that's settled.

I'll provide all the information we have to you.

We're closely monitoring this type of crime.

(Scammer Network)

(Boss Kai)

(Chane/Shin)

(Thep)

We have a list of companies doing this.

Mr. Chane or Shin's business

is one of those under investigation.

That's impossible.

It's impossible Shin's business is a scam.

He sourced his platform from abroad.

We need to check to be sure, right?

That's how your friend can clear up the allegation.

(Example of gaming scam)

(All activities)

Tawan.

You sent a lot of texts. What's the matter?

Come on. Let me help.

What's wrong? Long day at work?

I think I'm just tired. A lot happened today.

So you're in a bad mood.

Can I help?

I'm doing a scoop on online businesses.

It's a trend.

Do you think you can give me some advice?

That's easy.

What do you want to know?

If I want to find out more about your business,

can I visit your office to see how you work?

Of course.

Wait a second.

We have a VIP coming into the office.

Please prepare my presentation.

Your staff is going to be mad at me.

They should be going home by now.

My office is open 24/7.

We have rotating shifts.

I'm not overworking them, Tawan.

Let's go.

I'm happy to see you, and thank you for coming.

I thought nobody would dare to come.

This is your opening, Rin. We won't miss.

Also, I'm ghosting my husband. I'll make this worth my time.

I promise you this will worth your time and money.

- Thanks. - For me, I'm well prepared.

Won't your husband be mad? He's so protective of you.

What protective? He's insecure.

I'll join your membership.

Of course. For this opening night, we have a lot of special privileges.

Good evening.

Take care of my friends.

- Of course. Please come with me. - Let's go.

Please wait for me, Tawan.

I'll make you proud

like Shin did.

Hey!

Ladies, I'd like to welcome you all

to an unforgettable realm

of wonder, spectacle, and joy!

Let's enjoy this!

Your screams are not enough.

I don't believe you are happy to be here.

If you want me to believe,

what about becoming a member?

Yes.

That's a yes? So, as this

beautiful lady has honored me,

I'll give you a special reward.

What's that?

Want a room? Would you like to get a room?

Anyone else interested?

You want some?

- Membership for two, please! - For two?

- Come on. - Whoa!

- Want more? - He's great.

Na is really good at this.

This is Mana, the man who knows what women want.

That's our club's name.

I'm the only one getting kisses. That's bad of me.

Please allow me

to return the favor, girls.

- Wow! - He's so hot!

I hope he won't let me down.

For Miss Narin, the club's owner.

Please come up and receive a gift.

I have a very special gift for you.

Come on. Let's go.

What's he going to do, girls?

Before we begin the show tonight,

I would like to thank all of you beautiful ladies here.

Let me tell you. If you have problems with your boyfriend,

if you argue with your family or friends,

if you feel lonely and alone,

if your boyfriend neglects you,

if your husband cheats on you,

I would like you to leave all your sadness behind

and let yourself enjoy the thrill of this place.

The place where at day, you make yourselves gorgeous.

What about at night?

What do you do at night?

- Heal our hearts! - What do we do?

- Heal our hearts! - That's right. We'll heal your heart!

Right now,

our special selection of young guys

who are full of quality are ready.

What about you, ladies?

I can't hear you. Are you ready?

If you are, meet our young guys!

If you want an easy explanation,

my business is an online game.

You can play my game wherever you are.

You just

need to be a paid member.

It's not a free game.

So it's like an arcade game?

Those who paid to play,

what do they get?

They get rewards from winning

and commissions from new members they bring in.

So that means

your game is kind of like a direct sale?

Come with me.

Sit down. I'll let you try my game.

That's it.

See?

With an arcade game,

winning gets you nothing.

What's spent is lost.

For my game,

if you win,

you get digital tokens,

which hold real value.

So that means your token can be exchanged for real money?

That's right.

By the way,

why are you suddenly interested in my business?

(We have a list of companies doing this.)

(Mr. Chane or Shin's business)

is one of those under investigation.

Being under investigation doesn't mean they're committing crimes.

It's impossible Shin's business is a scam.

He sourced his platform from abroad.

We need to check to be sure, right?

That's how your friend can clear up the allegation.

My news team has received funds from a ministry.

They want us to raise awareness of the online threat.

That's why I want to find out how this business works.

That's it? I can help. It's nothing.

Really?

So...

This is good. Now, I can write my news for the team.

You have to teach me the foundation of this business.

Okay. I'll give you a lecture.

But...

Are you hungry?

Would you like to talk more at my place?

Okay.

Mr. Chane, my young millionaire.

Let's go?

Come on.

Cheers!

Let's drink to our sales that have exceeded the target. Cheers!

This tastes so good.

I have to thank both of you.

Without you two,

tonight wouldn't have been this successful.

The one you should thank is Mana.

It's all of us.

You guys want me to take all the credits?

You're being humble again.

Don't worry. Let's drink. Cheers!

- Let's go. Bottoms up! - Wait, bro.

- We can't get drunk yet. - Why can't we?

Closer, please.

Closer. Okay. Ready.

Mana, you sure thought this through.

You hired a PR team. We'll be in the news.

Of course.

Strike the iron while it's hot.

I wasn't wrong to trust you.

Okay.

Make this the happiest shot ever!

Come on.

Yay!

Yeah!

I've got a lot of information and insight.

It will be easy for me to write this news.

Thank you so much for your new perspective.

So most people who play online games

want some income.

The problem is people's greed.

It's their own greed to blame.

When they win, they don't complain.

When they lose money,

they never blame themselves. All they say is they got cheated.

In online businesses, if you are unaware,

it's pretty easy to get scammed.

You have to be careful.

Tawan.

I studied law in prison.

I won't dare to scam people.

Haven't you heard? They say screw around and you'll find out.

Don't think you know everything.

I'm saying this

because I care about you.

I promise.

I'll be careful.

I won't make you worry, okay?

Mr. Chane will clear up everything that has happened.

My business

is the same as a brokerage.

We're out of time!

Everyone, let's have order!

Stop!

This is a search warrant.

Go and arrest Chane! He's the criminal!

All of Shin's properties

will be seized and paid back to the victims.

A good reporter

must separate work from personal matters.

They can never mix.

Tawan? I'm here to take you home. Where is she?

- Whoa! - Don't you get it?

- Hey! Stop! - Tawan!
