(Episode 8)

Why didn't you keep your promise?

I never promised anything.

Do you have any idea what you cost me?

That's not my responsibility.

What?

Have you seen my clothes?

Have you seen my clothes? It's so dirty.

Have you seen them? They're always so dirty!

You're so bad at your job!

IFB...

Yoo...

What's going on?

Are you okay?

Did you get hurt?

Do you have a death wish?

- It was you, wasn't it? - What?

You killed Seo Yang Woo, didn't you?

(Eugene Han, Head of Bahama Korea)

Red?

Why not? I think it suits you well.

Welcome. Hello.

Let's sit here.

- Are you okay with hangover soup? - Yes.

- Two hangover soups, please. - Okay.

(Chae Yi Hun, Level-3 MOEF International Finance Bureau)

(Lee Hye Joon, Level-5, International Finance Bureau)

You don't need to act like you're okay...

because I know you're not.

Why didn't you tell me?

Tell you what?

About that thing that Director Na asked you to do.

How much do you know?

You know everything, don't you?

I thought that was the only thing I could do.

I visited Director Seo's house,

and I saw his kids there.

They had just lost their father overnight.

And I figured Director Na would also be someone's father.

So...

you were going to deal with it...

all by yourself?

You clearly let your personal feelings...

get in the way of the public interest.

I know how it feels...

to lose a father.

I'm sure you were also very sad...

when your father passed away.

What about you? Were you sad?

Your uncle told me what happened.

My dad was weak.

He was broken.

And I sometimes resented him for that.

But it made me feel sad that I couldn't undo anything.

You might not know what I mean.

Your father was Professor Chae.

Here's your meal.

Eat up.

How I feel toward my father is a bit complicated.

It might not be the same,

but I didn't have a great relationship...

with my father either.

(Vitalize the economy and give hope to the citizens.)

(Na Joon Pyo, Director General of International Finance Bureau)

Hey, do you...

Do you have any idea what you did?

Yes, I do.

- You do? - As a civil servant,

I did what I could do for my country.

For the country?

What exactly have you done for this country?

Try coordinating a smoothing operation.

Whatever it is, it must be above 1,250 won.

From 1,250.1 won and up.

Director. The Foreign Exchange Fund Bureau handles...

I'll instruct them separately.

The recording has been saved elsewhere.

Order me to do anything like this again...

and I'll turn you in.

Hey. Hye Joon, wait!

Hey!

What if she also recorded that too?

Woojin Shipbuilding finally went under.

The court has begun the liquidation process...

and Woojin's Special Business Division will be sold off to China.

Due to this event, the KOSPI went below...

the 2,000-point mark this morning.

Just like Ms. Jin reported,

the bankruptcy of Woojin Shipbuilding...

caused the KOSPI to drop...

Our economy will break at this rate.

Hello.

Goodness, welcome. It's been a while.

Can we get two bowls of chicken soup?

We can't sell that anymore.

Why not? That's what we came to eat today.

Gosh, all right.

I'll serve you two but it'll be on the house.

- Really? - Gosh, no way.

- One chicken soup. - Sure.

Hello.

I'm from the head office.

Oh, I see.

But what brings you here?

We received a tip.

Is it true that you sold chicken soup here?

That's against regulations.

No, you must've heard wrong.

Look.

What will happen to us?

You will get fined.

And if this happens again, we'll sever the contract.

Sir, can't you let it slide just this once?

No.

We don't have the money to pay a fine.

Please. We only earn enough to get by every day.

(Heo Jae, Chairman of FSC)

The apartment in Songpa-gu the deputy prime minister has...

shot up...

over 400,000 dollars in price.

The public will be in an uproar.

So when you ask your question...

at the upcoming provisional session of the National Assembly,

make sure...

you focus on that.

When the deputy prime minister...

should've been concerned about the people,

he hired an expert...

to find a more expensive house for himself.

It's pretty sexy though, right?

Of course.

Just so you know though, that consulting fee...

was paid with the people's tax money...

that is allocated to him to spend on promotions.

(Deputy prime minister's promotion expense usage, January 2019)

Real estate survey inspection?

That's what he put it down as?

Like I said, it's super sexy.

Anyway, I get the picture.

I hear you're going to Sejong. Won't it be uncomfortable for you?

Well, business is business, isn't it?

We should head out together.

He knows his career hangs in the balance...

due to this debacle with Woojin Shipbuilding.

Whatever he does won't help him keep his job.

Not when...

something like this can send his career down the toilet.

- Off to the National Assembly? - That's right.

From the get-go,

he was given a position that he wasn't ready for.

He never had any ideas or vision...

regarding our economy, the housing issues,

and the much-needed healthy relationship between...

conglomerates and small companies.

He was never the man for the job.

That was an unnatural way to make an entrance.

Whatever business you conduct in Korea...

is none of my business,

but you still shouldn't lay your hands on people.

Like whom?

Lee Hye Joon?

She is a competent civil servant of this nation.

So?

- Your mother is Korean... - Cut the nonsense.

So what?

Is she your woman?

You're being ridiculous.

Actually, you're the funny one.

Do you still not realize why your blood is boiling...

and why you came all the way down here for?

I told you that she's a subordinate...

Not all senior employees...

come to their subordinate's defense like this.

Let me confirm just one thing.

- Is she your woman? - No.

Then we're good.

Chief Chae, was it?

You didn't have to come here...

for I have no business left with her.

Be honest with me, Mr. Kang.

Declaring bankruptcy of insolvent bonds...

Will that end with just Woojin Shipbuilding?

No, right?

(Kang Won Hee, President of Jungin Bank)

The companies that can't be salvaged...

will have to face bankruptcy as well.

It's why I'm asking you which company is next!

He's the president of the Korea Development Bank,

and he's the president of the Export-Import Bank of Korea.

Let them know as well.

Gyeomyang Tires? Jungmin Motors?

You have to let us know so that the government...

can try to buy some of the bonds!

Well,

the amount will be too steep.

You bought those bonds for chump change anyway.

Who decides which companies are salvageable?

The board of directors?

Is the board at Jungin Bank even functional right now?

I hear all the votes have been bought already.

- The major shareholders... - Government-run banks...

coming to the rescue again?

I apologize for my tardiness.

Goldman Sachs announced its predictions for 2050.

Brazil, Russia, India, and Korea are the countries to look forward to.

Globally, we're known as a force to be reckoned with.

In order for that to be true though,

the economy must cooperate in terms of standards.

You trust the words of a meaningless report...

published on Wall Street?

We all know that they're playing a trick just to sell BRICs funds.

An obvious trick played by Wall Street?

Then let me ask you this.

Why do you equate Bahama with Wall Street?

I never did that.

You didn't?

The director of the Foreign Exchange Fund has been filling me in.

He said Na Joon Pyo...

was going to send one of his people when the time was right.

But wasn't that "time" right when the funds came in from Bahama?

Is there anyone here who doesn't know that Na Joon Pyo...

is Chairman Heo's man?

Is there?

You seem to be saying...

we manipulated the exchange rate to benefit Bahama.

If you knew about it,

why did you remain silent?

Were you looking for a way to get me?

Do you have proof that my man did that?

If not, this is a false accusation.

If I check, and there was no wrongdoing,

I will hold you accountable...

for letting it happen when you knew about it.

Did you manipulate the exchange rate...

in exchange for a cut from Eugene Han?

Did he tell you that?

You dirtbag.

I'm sorry, sir.

- Did you do it again this time? - No, sir.

Why not?

Why not?

She wouldn't listen.

Whom did you send?

Speak up.

(Jeon Sung Hoon, Director of the Foreign Exchange Fund)

Aren't you going home?

The workweek is 52 hours.

- Yes, sir. - Let's go.

- Go home. - Yes, sir.

Let's go.

(Lee Hye Joon, Level-5)

What are you getting at?

An insolvent enterprise made a bank go under too...

by lobbying those needed.

The bureaucrats are still only crunching numbers,

so nothing has changed.

Get out.

Get out, you jerk.

He's been cautious lately.

The writing's on the wall.

There's a rumor that the deputy prime minister will be replaced.

(Kook Kyung Min, Advisor of Mijin Accounting Firm)

Even Daeryuk Group dropped him.

Just buy me a drink, punk.

Don't think about going drinking.

Stay low for the time being.

That's the only way to survive Chairman Heo.

Later.

I know that, punk.

I'm out already.

I can't go down alone.

Hey, Chief Chae. It's me.

How about a drink?

To console you regarding your probation.

Okay.

Yes.

- Chief Jo! - Yes, sir.

Get your things. Let's go for a drink.

Where...

Just come out.

Yes, sir.

Seriously. He won't last long.

If Daeryuk Group got involved...

They wouldn't do that for no reason.

It means they've completed their analysis.

How so?

Ever since the founding chairman,

they've wanted to enter the finance industry.

Chairman Heo controls the finance industry.

That's it.

Chairman Heo doesn't get along with conglomerates.

They may not get along,

but nothing gets done...

in this bureaucracy without Daeryuk's cooperation.

Hey. Over here.

- What took you so long? - Sorry.

Hello.

I had to go to Seoul.

Why is the person on probation busier than we are?

So? Keep going.

My friend is at their Office of Planning.

Young and Soo is Daeryuk's law firm.

Apparently, they were notified through Young and Soo.

So?

We can shift our investment plan for a semiconductor factory...

in Vietnam to fill the void left by Woojin Shipbuilding.

We'll make sure the Blue House is told that you played a big part.

That will be our official statement as well.

Why are you telling me that?

As you know, we have always wanted...

to enter the finance industry.

We are currently being blocked by the National Assembly,

but we're working on it.

Please don't oppose when the next government takes over.

- Chief Chae. - Yes?

Do you think it's right...

for someone flawed like Chairman Heo to become deputy prime minister?

No, sir.

Then you shouldn't stay silent. You're a young fellow.

You have many friends in the media.

Eat up.

Put more on the grill.

That's how low that jerk is.

He thinks he may be on his bad side,

so he's trying to use you.

I kind of wanted to be used.

Don't do it. Don't.

Gosh.

Cheers.

Let's be blunt.

What can we do?

Whether you're a chief or a director general...

I don't know how we look to outsiders,

but we're all just ministers' and vice ministers' peons.

You hold onto the scars from all the abuse you take...

while you're a chief, director general, secretary, and whatnot,

in order to implement your policy once you become a minister.

That's what it's about.

So you have to be patient and just deal with it until then,

no matter how much it stinks. You too.

If being patient will do,

that's not so bad.

That's right.

Many more people remain a peon...

for their entire lives than not.

So I was thinking.

As part of the economic bureaucracy,

I should do something.

That should have nothing to do with our positions.

What do you mean by that?

We need to have principles...

- and beliefs. - Belief?

- Right here. - Hey.

That kind of mindset will get you in big trouble.

How could you be foolish enough to romanticize...

the bureaucratic society of Korea?

Hey, it's me.

What? Really?

That's amazing.

Okay, I'll talk to you later.

Chief Chae.

What is it?

Chairman Heo apparently met up...

with the people at Daeryuk Group again...

to talk about what I mentioned earlier.

I'm going to turn down...

what you proposed to me last time.

Sir.

- Why don't you... - I intend...

to dramatically renovate the economy of our country.

That's always been my dream as I've come this far.

And conglomerates...

are also included in my list of targets.

I'm sorry.

My gosh.

My goodness, this really calls...

for a small celebration.

The chairman of the FSC threw a huge punch at Daeryuk Group.

So let's not worry about the future and just celebrate for now.

Being an economic expert in Korea...

is more about just knowing economics.

Politicians and the rich make nothing but a mess.

And in that mess of things,

you know as well as I do just how weak...

justice and order are.

Excuse me.

Can we have another bottle of soju?

Thank you.

- Chief Jo. - Yes?

You said earlier that there's not much we can do, right?

Yes, I did.

But you don't do something...

because you can.

You do it because you have the will to do it.

That's something that Chairman Heo would say.

Something Heo Jae would say?

That's a very dangerous mindset.

He's ruthless.

If things don't go well, you'll end up in a huge mess.

There. Just one more drink.

I'll buy. Come on.

I just came from church.

I haven't been to church in 20 years.

Thank you for coming.

- How are your kids? - They went back...

to Singapore.

I got a job.

I work at Jungin Bank's PR Team.

I don't do much there.

The work is easy.

I'm relieved to hear that.

I'm sorry.

I feel a little...

Mr. Kang told me...

that the chairman of the FSC especially asked him...

to give me this job.

And I don't know...

how to feel about that.

I'm sorry to ask this.

But why...

do you feel that way?

Because the person...

my husband met right before he died...

was Chairman Heo.

That night, when he came home,

he told me that they had a fight.

Did you meet with them?

Honey.

That traitor.

What are you talking about?

Chairman Heo...

had me do something that I shouldn't have.

I didn't know what that meant.

But I found out...

as I was going through his cell phone...

after he died.

You want to disclose that the BIS capital ratio was fabricated?

One of the level-fives in MOEF already knows the truth.

I can't do this anymore.

Director Seo. Director...

I suddenly realized after you left...

that you were the level-five civil servant.

Then...

I think...

the reason my husband chose to end his life...

was mainly because of the emotional pressure he got...

from Chairman Heo.

But right now,

I'm working at a job that was given to me...

by Chairman Heo.

But you see,

I have no work experience.

And I need money to raise my kids.

So...

I understand.

The more I keep working here, the more ashamed I feel.

And the more I feel that way,

I feel like...

I should at least find out why my husband...

decided to do something like that.

That's why...

Okay.

I understand what you mean.

"Are you enjoying your life in nature?"

"You made the right choice to run away."

"The human desire is passionate and infinite."

"And because justice couldn't have power,"

"I feel like we just chose to make power seem like justice."

"That's what I thought as I read Karl Polanyi's book again."

("The Great Transformation", Written by Karl Polanyi)

"And right now, I need your consolation more than over."

"Your consolation..."

"Consolation".

(Lee Hye Joon)

You want to disclose that the BIS capital ratio...

was fabricated?

One of the level-fives in MOEF already knows the truth.

I can't do this anymore.

Director Seo. Director...

I want you...

to trust me and let me handle this on my own.

You know I trust you. But...

No, I don't want to hear...

you oppose.

Please just do as I say.

This...

could be the card that brings Chairman Heo down,

but it won't be enough to uncover the truth...

surrounding Mr. Seo's death.

I'll take it upon myself to use this when necessary.

I think that's what's best.

There are...

a few things...

that I regret not doing...

as a rookie level-five.

As an economic expert,

you must know a few things to avoid making mistakes.

That's what I wish...

you would focus on right now.

I can't forget...

the gaze...

Director Seo gave me as he took his last breath.

Erase that memory then. Let me be haunted by it instead.

Just let it go now.

All right?

It embarrasses even myself...

to ask you this of all questions.

(Park Eun Seok, Assemblyman)

Deputy Prime Minister, you are someone I greatly respect.

However, the apartment you own in Songpa-gu...

recently skyrocketed in price at the amount of 420,000 dollars.

Those who can only afford their rent are shedding tears of blood,

but the deputy prime minister indulged in property speculation.

Also, I'd like to share a document I recently obtained.

It is stated here that you used money for promotions...

to hire a consultant to evaluate your private property.

- That jerk! - Promotional expenses...

- are made up of the people's taxes! - They're all thieves.

I'd like to hear your explanation.

(Kim Ho Joong, Park Eun Seok)

- That is not true... - And you're clean on this matter?

What about that Chinese restaurant along the Han River?

You took your children there.

I saw you there.

- What did you pay that meal with? - Look here!

Stop muddling the issue.

- We're questioning the DPM's... - It's over for the DPM.

inappropriate usage...

- of the tax payer's money! - Turn it off. All they do is argue.

They're putting MMA fighters to shame.

The fighters will be out of jobs soon.

All right, let's carry on then.

Even though it's our last day on earth,

we should still keep on planting our apple tree.

Everyone who is gathered here today...

is in the same boat.

Are you sure about this though?

Will it go public?

His daughter works at KTN as an economics journalist.

As if journalists know anything.

The TV promotes its fair share of dummies.

And his niece works at the Ministry of Economy and Finance.

The Korea Exchange...

- is in the palm of his hands. - So tell us this.

Can you provide us with cream-of-the-crop information?

Yes, of course.

The Ministry of Economy and Finance is where they formalize...

economic policies for Korea.

The Ministry of Economy and Finance.

- The MOEF? - That's right.

What now?

The MOEF seems like a safe bet.

Exactly. Why wouldn't you bet on the MOEF?

- Okay. - See?

I'm in!

What brings you by?

Can you offer me a drink?

Come in.

I'm fine.

I apologize, sir.

Is it something that difficult you need to be drunk to say?

Go on then.

The despicable economists...

were too busy cleaning up after those with power.

Not being able to tear down the faulty system...

and build a new one...

was indeed...

something that my father...

participated in.

- Is that right? - Yes.

Then...

can you say you're not responsible yourself?

I am responsible.

I failed the people too.

I studied economics...

and became an economics expert of the nation.

Just so that I could understand my father,

I tried my utmost best.

It's not something obtainable by hard work.

How far will you go...

to get what you want?

Will you aim for the DPM's job?

You want to disclose that the BIS capital ratio was fabricated?

One of the level-fives in MOEF already knows the truth.

I can't do this anymore.

Director Seo. Director...

Did you kill him?

He committed suicide.

Then let me rephrase.

Did you...

pressure him mentally so that he'd choose to take his own life?

What reason do I have?

I only did the right thing.

I still stand by what I ordered Director Seo to do.

The tragic event...

was just the result of Mr. Seo not believing in his own actions.

- Mr. Heo... - I'm not finished.

Do you consider yourself...

a non-guilty party then?

You stirred up his life.

In some ways,

we're accomplices.

How are you so sure...

that in everything you do,

everything you think, and everything you choose...

is always right?

Because I am right.

2011's World Economic Outlook,

which the government kept hush-hush and kept from the people.

That very report...

that said in the year 2050, the US's GDP...

will be second in the world at 34.6 trillion dollars,

a whole 18 trillion dollars less than China's GDP...

of 52.6 trillion dollars.

According to that WEO, we, the country right next to China...

will have a GDP...

of 3 trillion dollars.

The GDP per person? 64,393 dollars.

By 2050,

we'll drop out of the top 20.

And that's being generous.

The top 20?

We may drop out of the top 30,

or even the top 40.

This is our last chance.

- Last... - We must take it apart...

and rebuild it.

But we can't.

The politicians are blinded by power.

The conglomerates live off of that power and stuff themselves...

by evading the law and receiving special treatment.

Officials grovel at their feet and scholars are ignorant.

They aren't satisfied...

enjoying that power by themselves.

Those pieces of trash nobles demand job security...

for their children as well.

Do you think it's possible?

In Korea the way it is?

Is that why you chose Wall Street?

I had no other choice.

There was no realistic way...

to get rid of those pieces of trash.

That's too dangerous.

Greater the risk, greater the reward.

You can't underestimate the people on Wall Street.

- They're self-centered and... - I'm Heo Jae.

I am Heo Jae.

I sincerely wish the gamble you took...

pays off,

Chairman Heo.

Father?

Hey. My father's colleague, Kwak Dong Hyun.

Not Park, but Kwak. Yes, Kwak.

Gosh.

I came really far up, but I have good reception.

Yes.

(Legendary Wall Street Investor)

He was a legend on Wall Street.

As soon as he graduated UPenn, he joined Salomon Smith Barney.

He made 200 billion dollars from just short sales.

This is huge.

It's only a rumor, but it says...

the Rothschilds scouted him to be their asset manager.

When is your paternity leave until?

I got three months.

My wife said she'll finish her dissertation by then.

You are such a modern-day civil servant.

- Why? - You don't care about promotions.

You enjoy what you're given and even take paternity leave.

That's impossible if you cared about getting ahead.

You should get married again and have kids.

You'll see what's truly important.

May I help you?

Hey, I'll call you back.

Hello. I'm Professor Chae Byung Hak's son.

What? My gosh.

Is that really you?

How's your dad?

Is Professor Chae well?

Have some arrowroot tea.

I made it myself.

Thank you.

Byung Hak suddenly stopped...

talking about you.

I had no idea you were at MOEF.

I...

couldn't meet his expectations.

From the college I went to, and on.

From my understanding, that was your inferiority complex.

- What? - You majored in economy, right?

- Yes. - Byung Hak...

was working on becoming the top scholar of Korea.

But he was embarrassed.

Why? Because he knew...

what it meant.

He received funding for research...

and had to show his face...

at all the government seminars.

If the favored presidential candidate called him,

or if a new government was taking office,

he had to compose an economic policy to their liking.

Whenever they were announced...

as "so-and-so's economics,"

he grew crankier and crankier.

He started raising his voice more.

That wasn't his fault.

Yes? Napa cabbage?

I should have some.

Didn't you make your kimchi already?

30 heads? Yes, I should have that much.

Okay. Got it.

What? This?

I bet even Warren Buffet uses this.

Since you're here anyway,

how about some manual labor?

- Give me that. I'll do it. - Okay.

If one person does well farming napa cabbage one year,

every Joe Shmoe decides to farm them...

the following year.

Aren't you...

one of those Joe Shmoes?

True, I'm a city boy...

from Seoul and New York.

Why don't you use a smartphone?

You get good reception here.

That's why.

I'll have to be on it all the time if I have one.

That defeats the purpose of my moving here.

What was your purpose?

I made the wrong choice to pre-purchase a farm's harvest...

and bombed in futures trading this year.

What is this?

I told you, it's 1.50 per head.

Come on. Everyone finished making kimchi already.

You sold them to me for 1.45 each last time.

That's not right. That's 1.50.

That's 3.50 when you count the previous batch.

My gosh. Next time, okay? Next time.

- Bye. - Gosh.

She's so greedy. My goodness.

Is 1,500 won worth a little over 1 dollar?

- What do you think money is? - Sorry?

When I was in New York, I dealt with thousands of dollars.

Who knew I'd end up being stingy over a dollar?

The worth of money is so relative.

That's why it drives me crazy.

My goodness, hello.

You guys are so precious.

Eat up and grow well.

Let's say someone was...

too focused on their work and ended up ruining their health.

The first thing they'll notice is that their teeth become loose.

At first, I thought it was malnutrition.

But that wasn't the case.

It was because I always clenched my teeth.

I worked so hard that I ended up ruining myself.

I worked in New York for 20 years.

I ended up with a lump in my stomach.

One day, I figured this could kill me.

Is that why you came to Korea?

No, I stayed in New York at first.

There are lots of good hospitals there.

But I couldn't stand it there. Do you know why?

Because I couldn't stand seeing others earn money.

It constantly got on my nerves and drove me nuts.

I needed to stop comparing myself, but there was no way to do that.

That's why I ran away.

Even though I had no idea when I might die.

Thank you for the meal.

Byung Hak used to love that soup.

Cabbage soup?

I didn't know.

Why are you here?

I'm sure you're not here to help me sell my cabbage.

I was going through my dad's laptop.

And there, I found an unfinished email...

that was meant for you.

That crazy punk.

What did he write?

It sounded like he was very confused...

with the economic beliefs that he once had.

- It was very lengthy and... - I guess he was lonely.

If he wrote something lengthy,

it means he was lonely.

Do you need some consolation?

I hated my dad.

And I felt sorry...

for feeling that way.

I'm confused.

Your emotions...

can't easily be defined and put away.

If you hate him, just let that hate remain.

But he also loved me a lot.

Then you should also...

cherish those memories you have of him.

Spiciness, saltiness, sourness, and sweetness.

All those different tastes add up to create a certain type of flavor.

And just like that,

your memories of your father will pile up...

and turn into affection...

and love.

Love can't only be made up of good memories.

I know there are lots of people who criticize your father.

But you need to keep in mind...

that he still always did his best...

and lived a diligent life.

He always tried to choose the best option possible...

in the situation that was given to him.

He did his best for his country.

Whatever the result, no one has the right...

to criticize his sincerity.

Right.

Sleep well and go back safely.

You can always come back when you're having a hard time.

Okay.

Assemblyman Choi Jin Hwan is a strong rival.

All the conglomerates support him.

Think of what will happen...

if Assemblyman Choi gets appointed as the deputy prime minister.

Daeryuk Group offered to build a semiconductor factory in Geoje...

now that Woojin Shipbuilding no longer has business there.

And right now, we have no reason to decline that offer.

(Kim Dong Jae, President of the Republic of Korea)

Go ahead.

Daeryuk Group already once approached me...

with the same offer that was offered to you by Assemblyman Choi.

(President, Kim Dong Jae)

But I turned them down.

Why?

Because the DPM shouldn't get controlled by the conglomerates.

- But... - Don't let this deceive you.

Our government's goal is to achieve sustainable growth.

The government is trying to issue a three-year treasury bond.

We need that money to boom the economy.

But the conditions aren't very favorable.

But the government still wishes to push ahead...

because it's inevitable for economic growth.

And the FSC was always the one that had to take...

responsibility for that risk.

Let me...

be in charge, sir.

I have the power and connections that are needed to influence...

the major investment banks of Wall Street.

If you issue treasury bonds even though we're at...

such a big disadvantage,

you'll end up tainting your achievements in office.

In the worst-case scenario,

I could even cancel the issue of treasury bonds.

What I'm saying, Mr. President,

is that you'll have...

no leverage over Wall Street without me.

In other words,

there's a limit to what you can do...

as the president of this country.

The Blue House has appointed Chairman Heo Jae of FSC...

to be the next deputy prime minister for economic affairs.

Chairman Heo is getting ready for his confirmation hearing.

The Blue House has announced they'll proceed with the appointment...

even without the cooperation of the National Assembly.

Chairman Heo started his career at the Economic Planning Board.

And he's an experienced economic bureaucrat...

who attended the negotiation with the IMF as a delegate...

during the IMF crisis.

Greetings, sir.

(Ministry of Economy and Finance)

I plan to develop the International Finance Bureau...

as the heart of the Ministry of Economy and Finance.

I hope you'll do your jobs with that in mind.

Mr. Chae Yi Hun.

He is still on suspension, but I specifically asked him here.

I will appoint Mr. Chae...

as the director of IFB.

Director Seo. Director...

I want you to trust me and let me handle this on my own.

You know I trust you. But...

Sir, what about me then?

Director Na, I'm aware of your hard work.

It's why I'm giving you some time to rest.

Now that's a gigantic punch to the gut.

This is Director Chae.

I hope you'll help him with whatever he needs.

I look forward to working with you all.

(Money Game)

You know Heo Jae?

Eugene Han will try to sell Jungin Bank at an appropriate time.

And the estimated loss?

It's way over four billion dollars.

- Why me? - Yi Hun is cooking something up.

Do you know what the Tobin tax is?

There's nothing we can do.

Lee Hye Joon. Remember that name.

She's the type to cause trouble.

There's no evidence of homicide.

Making him take his own life is as good as murder.

Let's prepare to apply the Tobin tax.

Bahama will be thorough when it comes to moving its money.

You are not allowed to sell it for at least two years.
