(All people, organizations, locations, and incidents...)

(in this drama are fictitious.)

- Mr. Jang.
- Well...

I...

What's this?

You...

Do you always meddle with other's business?

It's okay to slack off sometimes. What's the big deal?

Why are you so ashamed of it?

I didn't do anything to be ashamed of.

Then let me join you.

I'm never nosy outside of work,

but I don't want to see the new staff struggling.

Do you want to...

do it right this time?

Cooperation.

Do you even know what this is about?

I have a guess.

People consider various things,

such as money, honour, power, and love to be important in life.

There's a lot.

You're not the type to chase power and honour.

Money.

You're doing this for money, right?

Is it because of his background?

Jang Ho Woo's behaviour is ridiculous, right?

People who didn't study much...

tend to think they're the best.

Exactly.

Does he think work is for self-realization?

Who is he to stop the deal?

Trying to achieve personal goals at work...

is looked down upon these days, even when a chairman does it.

How brave of him.

Wouldn't it make sense for him to be fired?

We'll have to see about that.

Even if that were true,

you're not taking this seriously.

I am being serious.

My heart is pounding right now.

No. This looks easy to you.

It does?

I just said so because it seemed like you were having a hard time.

Does it really look like I'm not taking this seriously?

Yes.

I don't exactly know why you're so serious.

I just have guesses.

However,

even if you're struggling a lot,

don't underestimate...

my sincerity so easily.

I wasn't underestimating it.

This is why blind hiring is meaningless.

What's the point of giving chances?

They think they got that chance because they were great,

and do whatever they want.

Because of Jang Ho Woo, they'll stop hiring high school graduates.

Of course. Reading the room well is an indicator of intelligence too.

Doing well on tests isn't enough.

Exactly. I wonder if he has friends.

Even if he does,

I'm sure they're all high school graduates like him.

I'm sure they always talk each other up.

Why are you looking down on high school graduates?

Ms. Jin?

Why are you looking down on high school graduates?

You should say what the problem is.

You got a good education. How can you make generalizations...

based on education level like this?

Why are you...

My dad is a high school graduate too.

I got emotional for a moment.

I'm sorry.

Still, Mr. Jang being a high school graduate isn't a problem.

He's capable. He has conviction.

But yes,

Mr. Jang does seem timid.

He also does seem a bit twisted inside.

I'm sorry.

What was that?

Hello, VP Han Je Kyun.

What a coincidence running into you here. It's been so long.

Have you been well,

Chairman Lee Sung Ju?

I have, thanks to your concern.

What brings you here?

He's here for an appreciation banquet...

organized by people supported by the Taeil Scholarship Foundation.

I see.

You've been supporting...

the Taeil Scholarship Foundation for over 20 years.

For those scholarship recipients,

you must be someone...

they'll always be appreciative of.

I'll let you get back to whatever you were doing, then.

Get home safely.

I'll visit you in a few days.

I have something to discuss with you.

I need your discerning eye and insight on something.

I'll contact you in advance and visit Taeil Accounting.

(Certificate of Patent)

(System based on big data for optimal fashion item ideas)

(Push notification service system based on location data)

What is it that you want from me?

You must be doing this because you want something.

Make sure that the Head of FSC passes the hearing...

that will be held at the National Assembly soon.

I think it should be possible...

with your position in the Information Commission.

The FSC?

If you do so,

I'll pick the journalist that will report what you say.

"Rising Above Party Lines..."

"to Prioritize Public Welfare."

Isn't that a good title?

(Recents, Assemblyman Yoo In Ho)

(Assemblyman Yoo In Ho 2, copying to NO NAME)

This is the document you asked for.

Why do you think the patents were all in their kids' names?

To give money to your children, you need to pay taxes.

They're setting things up...

so their children can make money automatically.

They're not teaching their kids how to fish.

They're giving their kids a fish farm full of fish.

It's such a sad world for kids with no parents.

They believe it's their right.

If they have patents...

It will work out for them. They don't have to pay any taxes.

I wonder what Ji Soo is trying to do by gathering all of these people.

- Are you insane?
- Look who's talking.

You're the project manager of the sales deal.

How could you go to the airport to stop the deal?

Do you think that makes sense?

Give me a good explanation as to why you did it.

Goodness.

(FY2022 Cakebean Financial Statements)

(Statement of Financial Position)

It was just an empty shell.

It'd be embarrassing to approve a deal like that.

Good for you. You're all so impressive.

Thanks to you and Jang Ho Woo,

Taeil Accounting has a bright future.

Which one is sincere? Your words or your expression?

Both.

I'm agonizing over and compromising between...

my professional conscience and my personal greed.

Can't you tell right away?

I don't want to know.

I'm saying this since the ship has already sailed,

but Jang Ho Woo really is something else.

Don't you think?

Usually, people have to experience a lot...

and get to our level...

to be able to doubt numbers on financial statements...

and take a closer look.

We never even imagined doing so as new staff.

Financial statements were like religion and truth.

But Jang Ho Woo doesn't get scared.

How can he be like that?

He doesn't trust numbers, to begin with.

An accountant doesn't trust numbers?

What does he trust?

What is this expression?

What are you thinking now?

I appreciate the gift,

but I was a bit surprised because it was unexpected.

Could I hear an explanation?

Don't you need the deal to fail for you to win...

the external audit of Jisan Bank?

Even if it doesn't happen right away.

What does that mean to you?

I was also a victim.

A victim?

Of our firm?

Yes.

I'm sorry to hear that.

You will find out soon too,

Ms. An.

Do you mean that person is a problem for me as well?

Probably.

All right.

Then what next?

The sales deal is already over.

I'm going to gather more people.

Like a certain someone.

Advisory Department Team Three.

Mr. Jang.

(Need corrections)

You went all the way to the airport to meet Chairman Lee Chan Ju...

to tell him not to buy Cakebean. Is that right?

Let me hear your reasons.

Not your thoughts now.

What you were thinking at the time.

I'm sure you didn't do such a thing without some kind of certainty.

Right before the deal,

I became aware of Cakebean's sales fabrication...

by pushing their franchise stores out.

I determined that this would be a deciding factor...

that would impact future cash flow.

So?

If it becomes known to Sang Ah Group later on that we were aware...

of company's flaws but still went ahead with the deal,

I thought we would face a greater loss and more risks...

than just missing the deal before us.

That was why...

you stopped the deal from going through?

Okay.

Okay, that's what you'll write in your written apology.

Then how about you tell me the real reason now?

Why did you mess things up for me?

You told me to sell Cakebean to Sang Ah Group.

But you told Chairman Lee Chan Ju not to buy it.

If it wasn't your intention to mess with both of us...

and pitted us against each other from the start,

then all you did was toy with us.

I won't go easy on you any further...

just because I want your talent and think it's a shame to waste it.

If you don't know your place and act up again,

I'll show you how cruel a man can become...

when he loses his composure and gives up on being reasonable.

I will teach you a lesson you won't forget.

Is that a threat?

Let's call it a warning.

Yes, Mr. Han.

Have Mr. Jang Ho Woo...

excluded from main projects from now on.

Take him off of the ones he is currently working on right away.

Yes, sir.

(Sang Ah Group's Shortcomings Due to Lack of Funds and Ownership)

(Director Han Seung Jo)

Gosh, I thought he would get fired.

Mr. Han held back quite a lot.

Isn't it because there wasn't an exact reason to fire him?

Why do you think a company cares about attendance?

Who cares about being late or going home early?

That's all to use as an excuse to fire people.

There must be a reason why he's ending it there.

What are you doing right now?

Before I tell you, could I ask you one thing first?

Why me?

You could've asked for something else for borrowing a name.

Why would you let me know that you intend to take back Sang Ah Group?

I hear your relationship with VP Han Je Kyun isn't that great.

I think that's enough of an explanation.

My enemy's enemy...

is my ally.

He had the chairman of a big corporation...

and the VP of an accounting firm...

in the palm of his hands and toyed with them.

I guess we could make good use of him.

What should we do about Chairman Lee Chan Ju?

He must've lost trust in us over this incident.

We should give Chairman Lee something he needs.

I believe...

there was a mistake in our proceedings regarding Cakebean.

I will pay closer attention...

so there aren't any more mistakes like this in the future.

I apologize, Chairman Lee.

Well...

Okay, then.

Why aren't you coming in?

To be honest,

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't upset.

And you're acting the way you are. Most importantly,

Mr. Jang here came running all the way to the airport.

I don't even have...

any bad feelings for Taeil Accounting.

We met outside on my way in.

I was so happy to see him and so grateful.

You know him too, don't you?

This is Accountant Jang Ho Woo.

Of course I do.

He's a talented member of our advisory department.

I have high expectations...

for Mr. Jang as well.

All I did was follow your words...

on an accountant's calling and duty,

which you always emphasize.

Now that I think,

the two of you seem to resemble each other a bit.

The succession of management?

The stock prices are at rock bottom.

That's the perfect time for succeeding your management rights.

You should consider Bo Sung's age too.

Well, that is true,

but the atmosphere these days is...

The bad rumours about Sang Ah Group that are going around...

can actually be used reversely.

Reversely?

I will explain the details of the procedure...

in my room where we can talk in private.

This is the end of your free ride.

Remember what I said.

That's what's most important.

Hey, Lee Sung Ju.

What are you doing here?

Then I will wait for your call.

Bye.

That rude punk.

Your older brother asked you a question, but you won't answer.

Are you looking down on me?

My gosh.

Hey, you can call it an investment all you want.

It's just playing around with money, isn't it?

How on earth does Taeil Accounting manage its clientèle...

that a loan shark like him comes and goes as he pleases?

Chairman Lee, let's go talk in my room.

A loan shark?

How could a younger brother dare...

to outshine the older brother, even in dealing with dirty money?

What did you say, punk?

Why, I ought to...

You'll pay for saying that!

You must know my relationship...

with Chairman Lee Sung Ju better than anyone.

I do.

You got Lee Sung Ju exiled...

as soon as Lee Chan Ju became chairman.

Was it Sang Ah Milling? The flour factory.

You turned a business graduate who studied abroad...

into a plant manager.

That was a bit too much.

You know all that, and still...

Blame the employer who doesn't pay,

not the one who does.

That's what you always said.

That arrogant punk.

I asked a question, and he didn't even answer.

My point exactly.

He still doesn't know the eldest son is the one...

with the deities' blessing.

Should I put him back in his place?

I can do it. Why can't I?

Shouldn't you check your reach before you attack?

You'll put me in my place?

You can't do this! Let me go!

I just wanted to...

take Sang Ah Group from the idiot eldest.

Just when I was about to get it,

you got Han Je Kyun to send me to a flour plant!

How dare you act like you're the entitled eldest?

Lee Chan Ju.

People call you the rich family's eldest son,

- but what can you do on your own?
- Darn you!

Our parents bought you a degree from a four-year university,

and you wasted our family money.

And now your son is following in your footsteps!

Don't you see that?

Darn you!

I should have just had you killed then.

You...

Han Je Kyun demoted me,

and it'll be he who reinstates me.

Not idiotic you.

Darn it.

That scoundrel.

You'll pay for this.

Where did he go?

Darn him.

Shoot.

Where is my car?

Where is my car, punk?

Hang up!

You're going to die today.

That idiot.

I won't let you off this time.

Darn you.

Floor it.

Don't stop. Step on it!

That psycho!

(Candidate Min Eun Sik for Head of FSC Passes Hearing)

You punk.

(Haeam Patrol Division)

You don't have the time for this.

Why get into fights?

He started it. What was I supposed to do?

(Haeam Patrol Division)

I told you not to be intimidated by others, not to beat them up.

They started it first.

How many punches did you throw?

Just one.

- How many times were you hit?
- Just once.

You should've hit him some more.

Enemies from yesterday could become allies today.

Whatever you do, there's no loyalty involved.

(Han Je Kyun)

One holds too many cards.

(HK Private Equity)

I knew it.

I said you'd pay one day for having that nasty temper.

You might as well curse me out.

Would I have said that for my sake?

You care so much about the evaluation...

Oh, you know that well how I feel?

Then why do you keep quiet...

when your mother infuriates me?

Are you a selective coward?

Why would you bring that up now?

She thinks only you're an accountant...

and only you do all the hard work.

I don't think that's fair.

As soon as I get promoted,

I'll move away.

You said it'd look weird...

if we commute separately when people think we live together.

- Ha Eun, come to Mom.
- Careful.

Come here. There's a good girl.

Did I startle you?

Focus on the green X.

Yes.

(Doctor: Kim So Eun, Patient: Lee Sung Ju)

Yesterday afternoon, Sang Ah Group Chairman Lee Chan Ju...

drove into SA Investment Chairman Lee Sung Ju's car...

and was questioned by police.

Chairman Lee Sung Ju is the Sang Ah family's second son,

and he was often at loggerheads...

with Lee Chan Ju regarding their inheritances.

Reporter Ha Ji Min has the story.

Is this the feud of brothers?

Sang Ah Group and SA Investment...

are yet to issue statements about the accident.

Right now, Chairman Lee Chan Ju...

Since I came to Korea, you've surprised me...

every time we've met.

Are you close enough to Chairman Lee Chan Ju...

to pay him hospital visits?

He's a client.

When you're a new staff?

What about you?

He's my client too.

Next time we meet, tell me your reason.

Hurry over to Africa. It's urgent.

There's something wrong with Ho Woo.

I'll put this here and leave.

Don't drink too much.

No, you can't.

Why can't I leave? Goodness.

What I am supposed to do here while you young kids have fun?

Yeo Jin will be here soon.

- Hurry up and put this on.
- Gosh.

- Come on.
- Gosh, Hee Sam.

- So pretty.
- What is this?

Hey! Do you know how bad it is to make a false report?

You're so out of it.

You're not even aware that your birthday is tomorrow.

What a temper.

People don't know what'll happen in the future.

How can she know what'll happen to her tomorrow?

Grandma.

Happy birthday.

- Hey. Happy birthday!
- Happy birthday!

- Okay. Let's go!
- Let's go.

- Please sit here.
- You must be happy.

Do you like it?

Yes.

I really like it.

When did you pick something like this out?

That's expensive.

I checked with Ms. Jin.

Oh, my. Hey.

Did Ms. Jin pick this out too?

(Hodangwon, Premium gold)

I knew it.

I knew there was something going on between you two.

She told me to give this to Grandma.

What is it?

Hey. This is awesome.

- Oh, my.
- Hey.

Stop obsessing over healthy things.

Why do you need to take care of your health?

- Please drink it.
- I need to do so too!

Hey. What about me?

I'm not in the best shape lately.

Why are you always so mean when it comes to food?

(Sang Ah Group Company Analysis)

Mr. Jang.

Yes?

(Sang Ah Group Financial Status)

(Company status, Company information, Financial analysis)

What are you doing?

That's what I want to ask.

How did you know I needed those books and files?

I guess I unnecessarily got involved again.

Sorry for making it look easy again.

Why are you doing this to me?

I want to help you.

Do I need a reason?

That's so harsh of VP Han Je Kyun.

I didn't think he was like that.

What did you think of him?

Noblesse oblige.

The role model of accountants.

Go ahead and eat. It'll get soggy.

When you met Chairman Lee Chan Ju,

why didn't you just pretend you were crazy and ask him...

who ran HK Private Equity?

I did.

You did?

Stay right behind me.

If he has a conscience, even VP Han Je Kyun...

won't be able to say anything to me.

Let's go.

Can I ask you for one more thing?

What is it?

Who is AN, the real operator...

of HK Private Equity?

Why are you curious about that?

It's important to me.

You're not going to make me money.

How can you ask who the operator is?

Tell me to betray my country instead.

I don't even know...

what my money is doing where.

The fact that Chairman Lee said so...

means his company is sending the money.

It also means that the fund operator,

not the financial backer, is the one with real power.

The person you called AN?

I thought I was almost there.

But thanks to Chairman Lee, you got some information.

Also, VP Han won't be able to torment you anymore...

because of Chairman Lee.

That's true.

Let's look into the material on Sang Ah Group first.

If we keep investigating how the money flowed into the fund,

we could find clues on the fund operator of HK Private Equity.

Okay.

(Sang Ah Shipping Property Plant Equipment Check)

Oh, I got it.

(FY2018 Sang Ah Shipping External Audit)

Could it have come from the loan sent from an overseas branch?

A loan?

Affiliates within Sang Ah Group often transfer money to each other,

like paying off one credit card with another.

It is possible,

but loans are reported on the financial statements.

They wouldn't be able to use it freely.

They also have to prove the money is still there...

at every annual audit.

Whether it's a slush fund or not, it did get sent overseas.

Let's first look into which money...

Sang Ah Group sent overseas...

hasn't come back yet.

An amount of money large enough to influence...

a private equity fund being sent overseas...

will leave a trace on the financial statements.

We could save time by narrowing it down to companies...

with lots of fixed assets and purchases of foreign stocks.

We should focus on big investments...

in overseas real estate, stocks, aviation, and shipping.

Okay.

(Sang Ah Shipping)

(Tangible assets, Intangible assets)

(Acquisitions and capital expenditures)

Why? Did you find something?

(Tangible assets, Intangible assets)

Mr. Han.

Let's check Sang Ah Group's debt distribution status first.

We need to know who has how much to make a purchase strategy.

I'll also check on their debt status and report back to you.

What are you being so dramatic about now?

Are you gathering Sang Ah Group's debt?

If you're going to give me unnecessary advice again, just go.

There's something you need to see.

What's weird about a shipping company buying ships?

The process.

The process?

Even if we forget about the fact that they bought ships...

not in accordance with the ship replacement schedule,

only this ship was registered in Hong Kong.

The other ships owned by Sang Ah Shipping...

are registered in Korea.

Companies sometimes do that to reduce costs.

What if Sang Ah Shipping was using that ship...

for a long time before they even bought it?

What are you talking about?

The ship that they bought...

was a ship that had been renting for a monthly fee.

Like a rental car or a car lease.

And one day, they suddenly bought the car, I mean,

- the ship?
- Yes?

And we're supposed to trust them because it's registered overseas.

It's the same ship on the ocean.

Nothing has changed on the surface.

But more than 200 million dollars was sent to Hong Kong...

to pay for the ship.

Are you saying that is Sang Ah Group's slush fund...

Chairman Lee sent to HK Private Equity?

It'd be impossible without the quiet approval...

and help of the person responsible for the case.

They could be working closely with AN.

AN?

The person who manages HK Private Equity's funds.

I'm not sure about their full name, though.

Who's in charge of the case?

VP An Seung Yeon.

Then it's no big deal.

- Why?
- I'm sure she actually bought it.

It's not for a slush fund.

How can you be sure?

There's no motive.

Why would VP An Seung Yeon...

help Sang Ah Group build up a slush fund?

And there's only circumstantial evidence.

Besides, this is HK Private Equity.

She's not one to do that.

We didn't know VP Han Je Kyun would do that to Haebit Construction...

and that Mr. Jang would die like that either.

What did you say?

You couldn't even guess what kind of person An Seung Yeon really is.

And what do you know?

I do know that the price of the ship and the remittance advice...

that Ji Soo saw in HK Private Equity...

are the same amount.

What?

Do you know the saying...

that profit trumps principle?

You're the one who doesn't know anything here.

Mr. Jang.

In France,

they call this kind of darkness...

where you can only tell a person's silhouette...

the time of dogs and wolves, apparently.

It's because it's unclear if the figure running toward me is...

my dog or a wolf coming to maul me.

Mr. Jang,

which one are you?

I don't think I'm a dog.

Is this because of Sang Ah Shipping?

I'm sure she actually bought it.

It's not for a slush fund.

How can you be sure?

There's no motive.

Why would VP An Seung Yeon...

help Sang Ah Group build up a slush fund?

And there's only circumstantial evidence.

Besides, this is HK Private Equity.

She's not one to do that. I'm sure of it.

You couldn't even guess what kind of person An Seung Yeon really is.

Not too long ago, Sang Ah Shipping spent more money...

under the pretext of an insurance premium.

You must be disappointed,

but it was a legitimate purchase of a ship,

and there was no such thing as a slush fund.

And during the two years where I was in charge of the audit,

there were no problems.

I don't care if you did wrong or not.

It doesn't matter either.

Why are you obsessing over Sang Ah Group's slush fund?

Only then can I approach...

the actual person who manages HK Private Equity.

And if you do?

That's the beginning of all misfortune and ill fate.

They should be mauled.

I looked into it, and they have perfect documentation...

for port entries and stuff.

If they were docked at port, we could go and check it out.

But this is practically a ghost ship.

It goes from country to country,

so it's not easy to see it even at ports.

We need to prove that she didn't actually buy the ship.

That'll prove that the money sent as the price of the ship...

is actually a slush fund.

Then we could catch the manager of the private equity as well.

Mr. Jang, you're not busy right now, are you?

I believe VP Han told you to take a break for a while.

Well, yes, he did, but...

Then why don't you join us and go out for a bit?

This won't take long if we go as a group.

Well...

What is this about?

Hey, Ms. Jin. Do you want to come with us too?

We could all get some fresh air.

All right.

Fresh air?

I should've known when they asked if we had padded jackets at work.

Here.

I didn't think we'd bring all of our new staff along.

You could use this chance to become friends.

You can say hi to one another.

What is all that?

Collateral.

A savings bank put up marine products as collateral...

to take out a 120,000-dollar loan secured by personal property.

I guess they knew what they were doing...

and put up double collateral.

They even lied that the collateral was in another freezer unit.

And if we're to dispose of this as a bad account for bad collateral,

we need to have a precise count...

on how much the losses are...

and how much the remaining collateral is worth.

Hang on.

Then you want us to do a complete enumeration of all this?

Yes, that's why we brought so many of you along.

Ms. Jin, please take good care of our new staff.

It must be so cold in there. Let's go.

Wait. Weren't you joining us too?

Oh, Mr. Woo and I...

have to go to the savings bank.

We'll call you later.

I'll leave you to work.

Ms. Jung, Mr. Woo!

My thoughts were a mess.

This might actually be better.

Darn it.

Do you expect us to believe that?

It was here when you printed out the inventory list...

to give to the bank.

But you moved it to another warehouse this morning?

Hang on. If this warehouse is in Boseong,

don't we have to go over 200km from here?

Look at the time already.

You're messing with the wrong people, mister.

Did you think we'd just take your word if you were so shameless?

We won't!

Let's go.

Let's go to that warehouse and see if it's really there or not.

Ms. Jin. One moment.

(Inventory check status)

Let's take a look.

You moved this much to another warehouse?

A 3.5-ton refrigerator truck...

can carry about 320 to 350 boxes.

For this amount, you would've called at least ten trucks.

Your receipt for the cargo rate, please.

What?

Let's see your receipt for the cargo rate.

Oh, well... That's...

Didn't the transport company give you a receipt or tax invoice?

Gosh, those guys need to get a taste of the National Tax Service.

You know you can get compensation for reporting tax evasion, right?

Hey, wait.

Hold on.

You have male and female crabs all mixed in together.

They have very different prices.

On your list, a female crab with roe...

is listed for a high price.

Is there a difference in price?

Well, I'm not sure either.

They're different weights too.

You have different sizes all mixed up together.

But the price is listed for the bigger size.

Are there size classifications for crab?

How would I know?

So,

should I send the other accountants to check inventory...

at the other warehouse,

open up all these boxes here,

and do a thorough job of unit pricing?

- Or...
- No.

I was wrong.

You didn't bring the fastest car among your cars today.

We're going to work. What's the point of getting there faster?

You were great back there.

If it weren't for you, we could've had to work so much.

How do you know all that?

I have years of experience as the grandson of cafeteria owners.

It's hard not to know.

Still, I didn't think you'd catch their fake inventory...

from the fact they didn't have a receipt for their cargo rate.

Whether it's people or goods, it costs money to move them.

Figures.

They say even adulterers get caught from their freeway toll fees.

Extra expenses.

When you buy a ship and come into port,

there must be extra expenses, right?

I'm sure there are.

Pull over.

Thank you.

Mr. Jang.

("Tax Laws")

(VP An Seung Yeon)

Mr. Jang, what is this rude...

I thought I explained enough to make you understand.

(Customs Act)

What's this?

If Sang Ah Shipping did purchase a ship in Hong Kong as you said,

that would be an imported good.

You would have to submit an import declaration to customs.

But you didn't do that.

There was no reason to,

and there was no way you could've done so.

Why?

Because that ship wasn't purchased.

From the beginning to the end,

that ship was borrowed.

Mr. Jang.

A 200 million-dollar slush fund.

You sent that to HK Private Equity.

- I...
- AN!

Are you still saying...

you're not the one managing...

HK Private Equity's fund?

You're right.

It's true...

that the ship wasn't purchased.

It's also true that we made a slush fund...

of 200 million dollars.

But I'm not the person you're looking for.

If you are right,

how will you explain the money...

that was transferred out of Sang Ah Shipping recently?

I no longer have anything to do with Sang Ah.

Then what about the 200 million dollars?

That...

You said an accountant should...

take responsibility for the process, as well as the result.

What are you talking about?

I said I would come down.

Mr. Jang. Let's finish this conversation later.

(Taeil Director Han Seung Jo)

What's taking so long?

(Jang Ho Woo)

Hey. What's up?

I'll let you hear...

the evidence.

You can finish...

this conversation with him.

I guess...

we'll have to see today's show another day, right?

So who is AN?

I don't have anything to tell you,

Han Seung Jo.

But I'm not the person Mr. Jang is looking for.

If he is right,

how will you explain the money...

that was transferred out of Sang Ah Shipping recently?

I no longer have anything to do with Sang Ah.

A beer is a must at the end of a tough day.

Why are you here?

Drink up.

Hurry.

Can you keep something like this at work?

Isn't this against the rules?

Let them fire me if they catch me. It's their loss.

Gosh.

It's like an emergency kit.

Some days, you need a bandage.

And some days,

you need some craziness and courage.

There's a treatment for each symptom.

There's a lot more in my locker.

What about when things seem hopeless and you want to give up?

When it feels like you're in the same spot,

no matter how much you walk forward.

Are you okay? Are you hurt?

I'm fine.

It's a very old case.

(Proposal for a successful tunnel construction business)

Doesn't MRG mean...

getting private funding for constructing roads and train tracks,

(MRG, A policy to guarantee minimum operating revenue)

but also having the government...

guarantee a certain amount of revenue?

Right. Because they're doing work that the government normally does.

The government allows them to collect toll fees...

and also make up the rest with taxes.

The lower the percentage,

the better it is for our client.

Of course. The government is our client.

That way, it lowers the toll fees and taxes...

citizens have to pay.

Why? Is something strange?

(Proposal for a successful tunnel construction business)

What?

Why do the arrows say to raise, not lower?

That's strange.

If I really am AN,

as you said,

don't you think I would have used...

Taeil Accounting's great power to develop a long-term...

but undetectable profit model, instead of buying one ship?

It's so fascinating.

When you break up losses into small pieces,

people can handle it.

Whatever fund this is,

they would've collected so much in taxes.

Wait. This is a 30-year contract.

They must still be collecting.

Gosh. That makes me angry.

Who would do such a ridiculous thing?

It's not a mistake.

Because the private funder was HK Private Equity.

How did you know that?

(Additional cases in Korea)

That blue colour.

Yes.

With the recession and rise in interest rates,

there will be a flood of big businessmen...

facing the risk of bankruptcy.

It wasn't AN.

It was Han.

We can't pass up this huge economic boom.

We, at HK Private Equity.

Han Je Kyun.

(Deals Leader Han Je Kyun)

(Numbers)

Now I need to risk everything...

to stop Han Je Kyun.

Is Han Seung Jo helping too?

They can't know that we know.

I think you need to repay me for something, AN.

Is that a threat?

You should stop now. I'll stop him this time.

I believe Mr. Han Seung Jo is different.

There's something between them.

I'll consider this repayment for borrowing your name.

There's a limit to one's patience.

The right moment is created by people.

Are you interested in burning another piece of dead stock?

What do you mean?

Burning things up is the neatest way.
