EPISODE 3

[♪ music fades]

[knock on door]

[Guho groans]

[♪ tense music playing]

What does this mean?

I don't want to die, sir.

Please spare me.

Get up.

I want you dead, but you want to live.

We've both laid our cards on the table.

If I was going to spare you if you begged, I wouldn't have started this at all.

I skimmed off some of the slush fund.

What did you say?

Let me live,

and I'll return it and disappear.

[Jangseon laughing]

Manager Yoo set up--

The National Patriotism Fund?

Yes, Manager Yoo wanted to quit out of guilt

for helping me pocket money, not just for the fund.

How much did you skim off?

Not much.

A little over 39 billion won.

[chuckles]

You think 39 billion won is not much?

That's 39 stacks of 1 billion won

and 390 stacks of 100 million won.

You filthy thief, you've got some nerve, and it will just kill you.

[laughing]

Director Seo,

are you serious?

You little…

If I hadn't tried to get rid of you,

you would've taken that big sum without a trace.

The money would've been gone too if I had died.

Shut up. I'm going to bury you alive today!

Are you giving up

on the 39 billion won?

[♪ tense music playing]

Director Seo, transfer it to the Swiss account.

Right here, right now.

Try anything funny,

and you won't leave this room alive.

Sir, I don't gamble with my life.

Two billion now.

Seven billion once I walk out of here safely.

The rest…

only after my safety is guaranteed.

You really don't trust me?

I don't, sir.

Before you even knew about the money, you tried to kill me to protect the fund.

But you're still alive, aren't you?

I survived, sir.

[line rings]

Cheon Guho,

bring me a bowl of ice water.

And a bottle of wine for Mr. Yeom.

[line disconnects]

TRANSFER COMPLETED

Sir.

It's transferred.

If you put someone on my tail, the rest of the money is off the table.

[♪ music fades]

[Jangseon] Deal with Manager Yoo's body.

[Guho] Yes, sir.

The soup should stay warm until Huicheol leaves for work.

Just pour it straight in, no need to reheat.

-Got it. -Here.

Get back safe.

[♪ dramatic song playing]

I thought I'd die without seeing you.

What do you mean?

What happened?

[♪ song fades]

Hey, did you fall?

Let me see. Are you hurt?

Why did Aunt have to pack you this so late at night?

I asked her to.

You've been skipping breakfast before work lately.

Right.

Did you catch a cold?

YOO FROM ENERGY RESOURCES CO. TOOK HIS LIFE

LAST NIGHT, YOO TOOK HIS OWN LIFE AND WAS FOUND DEAD…

[scoffs]

[sighs]

[♪ song fades]

[line ringing]

It's me, Dongju.

[woman] Look who it is.

I rushed to answer thinking it was a new client.

Let me borrow some money.

You can just come over.

What's with the weird number?

Are you worried that I'm broke?

A lot?

How much are we talking?

[♪ suspenseful music playing]

What?

Okay.

Just come.

SEE YOU TOMORROW

[♪ music swells]

Director Seo's car hasn't moved.

He must actually have the money on him.

[knock on door]

[♪ music fades]

Let's do it.

I might not be able to pay you back.

You said you'd put up your land in Sejong as collateral.

Its value's bound to rise.

But…

will the hack you installed on Yeom's computer really work?

You're the one who made it.

That's why I'm worried.

Big money's on the line.

The National Patriotism Fund is worth over two trillion.

[scoffs]

[Taegeum] Jeez, Yeom Jangseon.

He must be a true patriot.

By the way,

how did you even think to download the hack from my webpage?

[♪ tense music playing]

[♪ music swells]

[♪ music ends]

It turned out that way in my fight to survive.

Let's begin.

Give me a phone.

A phone?

This is disposable.

If you need more, let me know.

-I need one more. -One more?

Okay.

[phone vibrating]

I'll answer it.

NO CALLER ID

Yeom Jangseon speaking.

Sir, I've completed the transfer. Please confirm.

I'll wait.

You wired it?

[♪ captivating music playing]

Yes, I'm checking the deposit.

[Guho] It's transferred.

[Jangseon] The transfer went through smoothly.

[Dongju] Yes, understood, sir.

Wishing you longevity.

I'll contact you after sending the remaining 30 billion.

He's wishing me longevity. That bastard Seo Dongju.

[♪ music swells]

[♪ music fades]

[Seonu] Gosh.

You're here.

[deliveryman] Hey, Seonu.

[Seonu sighs] Typical of my mom.

Sir, are you a detective?

[sighs] I've stayed out of trouble these days.

I can tell.

[Seonu] You're not a cop, right?

Who are you?

[Dongju] Jeez.

[Dongju yawns]

[♪ amusing music playing]

Gosh.

[Seonu] What?

Who on earth are you?

Isn't it heavy? Go on.

[Dongju] Okay.

[Seonu] You're going to hurt your back.

-Pass me one. -Move aside.

[Seonu] No, give me…

[♪ music ends]

Mom, do you know him?

Mom, we're running out of eggs.

They came in. Look down there.

Here.

[Dongju] Thank you.

What? Right.

Got it.

You were here recently.

So, you remember.

Because you were with him.

Did you say anything to Seonu earlier?

I didn't say a word.

[sighs in relief]

The chairman thinks

Ji Seonu should take his family name, Cha.

I don't want that.

Does Seonu feel the same?

-Of course-- -I need to hear it from him.

The answer to that question.

[♪ melancholy song playing]

[Dongju] Not right now, of course,

but I'll make the opportunity happen.

I came to tell you that.

If you ever need help, feel free to contact me.

That's why the chairman brought me here.

To show me to you, Ms. Ji.

[Gangcheon] So, what did you and Seonu talk about?

Did you tell him I'm his father?

It would've been too sudden anyway.

Good call.

I think it's too soon for that.

What did you two talk about all day?

We ate together, played some games,

and I told him about my childhood.

That's the way. Get close to him first.

That way, he'll listen to you later.

[knock on door]

Sir, everything is ready.

Got a seat for Director Seo?

Of course.

-[door opens] -[Gangcheon] All right, let's go.

[door closes]

Ah.

Since my son-in-law missed the vice-chairman promotion,

I thought a nice meal might help smooth things over.

[exhales]

Did you catch the news about Manager Yoo?

-Yes. -Do you know anything I don't?

No, sir.

I see.

Hmm.

Sir.

I have a favor to ask.

I knew you had more on your mind than just talking about Seonu

when you came all the way to my house.

What is it?

I need some time off.

[Gangcheon] You do need a break.

Wait.

The last time you took a break…

Not since my first year.

[♪ classical music playing over speakers]

[Gangcheon] Where's Dr. Kim?

He's still in surgery. It must be a tough one.

He didn't want to miss your soup, so he said he'd hurry.

Pack some for him.

Secretary Gong! When will the food be ready?

It's ready now, sir.

Okay.

Chef Do went all the way up to Cheorwon

to catch these native chickens himself.

Since they were free-range, the meat's a bit firmer,

but the more you chew, the richer the flavor gets.

You know Chef Do likes to exaggerate.

[Gangcheon and Ildo chuckling]

But even if it's not the most tender, it's good for you. Let's go eat.

[footsteps approaching]

[♪ somber music playing]

[Eunnam] Grandfather.

I'm home.

[Deokhui gasps]

[Deokhui] Eunnam.

Yeom Huicheol, that bastard.

Father, Eunnam shouldn't have to live getting beaten like this.

I'll handle Prosecutor Yeom.

[Gukhui] She's the eldest granddaughter of Daesan Group!

[Deokhui] Lower your voice, Gukhui.

Oh, dear. For bruising, nothing beats this beef.

Red meat works best. Here, take this.

Chef Do, take it away.

The bruise will spread downward.

Apply early, even on clear skin, for best effect.

[Gukhui] My goodness.

He messed up your beautiful face.

Try this first. He says it'll help.

No, Aunt.

[Gukhui] When I see Prosecutor Yeom,

I swear I'll break his legs.

[object thudding on floor]

[♪ quirky music playing]

Prosecutor Yeom, did you get into an accident?

My goodness… Eunnam.

Yeo Eunnam!

[Gukhui laughs]

[Gukhui] Sorry for laughing, Prosecutor Yeom. [laughs]

My goodness.

Seriously, she's really something else.

Right, that's the way.

If you're not planning to divorce,

whether you fight it out or hug it out, you should settle it right away.

[Huicheol] I apologize.

I'll take Eunnam back.

Eunnam, get up.

I'm not going back to that house.

[Gukhui] Eunnam.

Isn't it a bit too rash to break up after one fight?

This is embarrassing. Let's go.

-I said let's go. -I'm not going!

[♪ dramatic music playing]

[Gangcheon] Director Seo, you're done here.

And, Eunnam, come with me.

[♪ music ends]

Shouldn't you two go in there?

Father will handle it.

[Gukhui] Ildo, this is your moment.

Step up and be the father you should be.

It's the perfect time to do so.

"Eunnam, you're married now. Go back home immediately."

Discipline firmly.

That's how you show love.

What's this?

Samgyetang?

Dr. Kim is probably waiting for it.

Is this your way of telling me…

-[door opens] -to shut up and leave?

[door closes]

[footsteps approaching]

Taeyun, drive Huicheol home.

Yes, Grandfather.

Tell your family clearly so there'll be no misunderstanding.

That Eunnam will stay here for now and return when the time is right.

-Father. -Father.

That is not right. They're newlyweds.

Fighting is how they build a bond.

They should stay together to reconcile on their own and--

And if they fight again?

Will you take responsibility?

What?

-Well… -[Gangcheon sighs]

[Gangcheon] Trust me and wait.

Do you understand?

Yes, understood.

[sighs]

[Huicheol grunts]

[car door shuts]

[car door opens, closes]

[car engine starts]

[♪ melancholy music playing]

[knock on door]

Dongju.

How did you get here?

[Ildo] Eunnam.

[knock on door]

I'll call you.

Eunnam.

How about some tea?

Mom, I'll take a drink instead.

Huicheol said

that on our wedding night,

when we were having sujebi with Grandfather,

he could tell something was off between me and Dongju.

He asked me outright, and I didn't want to lie.

Huicheol made some insulting remarks about Dongju,

and I couldn't let it slide, so we fought.

Prosecutor Yeom is the one who was insulted.

You took another man's side over him.

[sighs] Put yourself in his shoes.

Eunnam.

Do you remember?

As a kid, you'd cry and kick me out of this study,

saying it was your dad's room.

[♪ somber music playing]

No, I don't.

[Sunho] "Miss, please open the door."

"No matter how much it called, no one responded."

"The oriole watching nearby

sang in its sweet, clear voice."

-"Tweet, tweet, tweet!" -[young Eunnam laughing]

"Tweet, tweet, tweet!"

"Then, a startled sound came from the room,

and the door creaked open."

-Dad. -Yes.

Read this part again.

-Again? -Yes.

Okay, it's your favorite part.

I'll read it again. [clears throat]

"Tweet, tweet, tweet!"

"Tweet, tweet, tweet!"

[laughing]

"Tweet, tweet, tweet!"

Whenever I come in here,

I think about Dad reading to me.

Glad it brings back good memories.

But, Eunnam,

I'm sure your father wouldn't want to see you divorce.

If he were alive, wouldn't he just want me to be happy?

You chose this marriage. That's what you said.

To clarify, I chose the Daesan Group shares Grandfather promised to give me

if I got married.

"If I want to beat President Huh,

I need those shares."

That was my intention.

You're both drunk.

Did you know, Mom?

I thought I could let go of Dongju

without regret, but…

But I'm a mess like this.

What should I do?

BEE POLLEN 1 TEASPOON A DAY

[♪ melancholy piano music playing]

[line ringing]

Yes, I'm ready.

In 10 days, I'll wire the money to Yeom Jangseon's Swiss account.

Once he confirms, I'll settle up with you.

Count my hacking fee

and labor costs separately.

Enjoy your break

and come back like a champ.

Wait.

Make sure I have a front-row seat when Yeom Jangseon completely loses it.

Bye.

OVERSEAS REMITTANCE APPLIED

[line ringing]

Yes, sir. It's been transferred.

Please confirm it. I'll wait.

[♪ music ends]

It's in.

Finally, it's all wrapped up.

Director Seo, you wished me longevity last time, right?

You've got a long road ahead of you. Thousands of miles of opportunity.

I'll wish you a long, prosperous, and safe life.

[Dongju] Yes, sir.

Thanks for sparing my life instead of killing me.

Why spoil a good day with such grim talk?

Let's just forget the past.

Yes.

I'll see you next time.

[♪ tense music playing]

[phone vibrating]

Calling to pay up?

I've settled the interest, principal,

hacking fee, and your labor costs.

Plus, a bonus.

Nice.

Now you're the only one who knows the password

to the two-trillion-won account.

I guess that means Yeom can't ever try to kill you now, right?

[♪ music swells]

[line ringing]

It's me, Dongju.

[♪ music stops]

Right now, I only want two things.

[♪ somber music playing]

Money and you, Eunnam.

All that's left is for you to come.

[boat engine revving]

[♪ music fades]

[child 1] Pass.

[child 2] Nice.

[♪ mellow music playing]

[child 3] Nice.

[child 4] Wow, it went over.

[both exclaiming]

[Dongju laughs] Great job.

There you go.

[chuckles]

One more time.

-One more time? -Yes.

Fine, one last time.

Here we go.

One more time?

One, two, three.

[Dongju] Eunnam.

If you don't come, I'm staying single forever.

[both exclaiming]

[Eunnam] You're clinging now instead of getting revenge.

It's pathetic.

[Dongju] I know it is.

This life's a lost cause.

I was told you're the only woman for me in this life.

By whom?

By myself.

[grunts]

[line rings]

[phone vibrating]

-Yeah. -[Dongju] Where are you?

Home.

Still?

I'm…

not coming.

Eunnam…

[line disconnects]

[♪ music fades]

-[Eunnam gasps] -[♪ suspenseful music playing]

[Eunnam grunts]

What are you doing?

Hey, you jerk!

[phone vibrating]

[Eunnam] Dongju!

Dongju!

[line ringing]

Dongju!

Dongju!

[♪ music stops]

[Guho] Sir.

You've come a long way. Get some rest.

[♪ suspenseful music continues]

[♪ music fades]

I'll give it a go.

It's a mess from the start.

I'll start.

[♪ dramatic violin music playing]

[♪ music fades]

That's it.

I didn't practice the rest.

I wanted to master it

and play it for you whenever you wanted…

[♪ sentimental music playing]

I'm hungry.

Let's see.

There.

[exhales]

This is the chairman's recipe that's more precious than wild ginseng.

Soju with raw eggs.

Almost forgot.

Ta-da.

-I said let's go. -I'm not going!

I got it fixed.

The shop said the gems were still intact.

[breathing heavily]

When I left the NIS, I took it with me

in case I needed it

to do something patriotic one day.

This gun hasn't fired in a while.

You have to pour out filthy water gently, or it'll splash back on you.

You did a great job getting rid of that filth, Seo Dongju.

You've always had a knack for shooting, haven't you?

But I heard from Guho that you spent several days at the range.

[chuckles] I get it.

Sending Seo Dongju off must have been…

Killing Seo Dongju…

wasn't easy.

Personal feelings have no place in serving the fund.

Seems like you got attached.

That's not what I meant.

Of course not. That's not it at all.

Listen,

from the moment you introduced that kid to me,

I knew you two were headed for a short, intense ending.

I wanted to hold a funeral for him,

but it seems the fish got a feast.

Seo Dongju's body hasn't surfaced.

Guho!

[door slides open]

[door slides closed]

A quiet cleanup calls for a proper reward.

I picked out something good.

I'll transfer the amount you told me

from the Swiss account to Mr. Huh's Bahama account right away.

It wouldn't be right to thank you with just a bottle of wine

when you took care of the filth.

Well, we got back the money Seo Dongju stole, so…

It's not a bribe, just a sincere token.

And it's a generous sum.

[chuckles]

I'll send it to your account.

Use it as pocket money or invest it.

Whatever you like.

[Jangseon grunts]

[♪ suspenseful music playing]

I know guys like Seo Dongju very well.

A type that never bows to anyone.

His loyalty?

Not fake but never real either.

Here.

Sir.

Give me a moment.

[♪ music fades]

[♪ melancholy music playing]

Why did you do it?

For Daesan.

Is Daesan more important than a person's life?

It's far more important than you.

Far more…

important.

[♪ music ends]

[Jangseon] Are you saying I just tossed

Seo Dongju's two-trillion-won head to the fish?

[♪ suspenseful music playing]

Hey, Guho.

How do you know this was Dongju's doing?

It resembles the hacking program I encountered at the institute.

Dongju must have planted it during the transfer.

I'm sorry.

[♪ music swells]

Hey, Ildo.

[♪ music fades]

Seo Dongju stole the National Patriotism Fund…

I mean, my money.

He stole all my money, locked it in his head, and ran off.

And you shot and killed the man who's worth two trillion won.

[♪ tense music playing]

Director Seo hacked the Swiss account and changed the password.

It's an anonymous account,

so we can't claim ownership without the 31-character password.

Sir…

That bastard Dongju dragged all of us down with him and fed us to the fish.

He kept the damn password in his head, and now he's gone!

There's no way to bring him back.

[Jangseon exhales in anger]

The answer was right in front of us.

You need to take responsibility.

Sir.

Seo Dongju, the one who caused this mess, was a Daesan man.

He's your guy, Ildo.

So, you take responsibility.

How am I supposed to?

It's a big sum.

[Jangseon] It's a lot of money to give up over a simple request,

isn't it?

Let me give you some real motivation.

Guho!

These are just the thumbnails.

In this video,

you'll see every moment from when you rented the boat.

Every move captured by the drone.

Anyone could tell that Huh Ildo, CEO of Daesan Group, is a murderer.

No room for doubt, right?

Until you figure out how to fill that hole in my account,

you're not taking a single step out of this room,

President Huh Ildo.

Hey, Huh Ildo, you bastard.

Staring at me won't solve anything.

Either cough up my two trillion won

or raise Seo Dongju from the dead if you have to!

[♪ music fades]

[thunder rumbling]

Shoot.

[thunderclap]

[fisherman spits]

Rest in peace…

Tigers leave their stripes,

and you left behind a luxury watch.

Hope you're in a better place.

[loud bang]

-[thunderclap] -[screaming]

[groans]

[gasps]

[fisherman splutters, pants]

I thought you were dead!

Take this watch back.

Just take it back!

I gave you the watch. Go away!

Please go away! Jeez!

[yelling]

[fisherman whimpers]

Are you okay?

Hey.

[phone vibrating]

Yes, sir.

He's still just sitting there.

Yes, I understand.

[line disconnects]

Where's Mr. Yeom?

What do you mean you can't make up for it?

Are you telling me to suck it up?

Is that it?

I'll find a way to secure

the emergency funds you need.

Looking for a way

isn't a real plan.

There's a secret slush fund vault managed by Chairman Cha Gangcheon.

You're planning to steal it?

Just borrowing it

for a while.

[Jangseon sighs]

If you don't come up with something better,

Daesan Energy will have to run at a loss.

Then the company's main bank will tell you to sell it.

If Daesan Energy gets passed around and eventually sold off,

you'll be able to rake off about a trillion won.

[♪ tense music playing]

[♪ music ends]

[Gangcheon] Yum.

Good job. It's delicious.

[Gangcheon chuckles]

[♪ somber music playing]

Why aren't you eating?

I don't like Taeyun's ramyeon, Grandfather.

[Gangcheon] Yum!

[♪ music fades]

[Gangcheon burps]

Would you like some more?

[♪ suspenseful music playing]

Sure, let's go.

Buried Hearts

[Jangseon] Remember, South Korea's fate hinges on what's in Seo Dongju's head.

[yells]

[Ildo] Mr. Yeom has his eyes on Daesan Energy.

[Gangcheon] I'll give you the money once Dongju's back from vacation.

Looks like the chairman forgot who I am.

[man] When will the package arrive?

[Jangseon] Bring back Seo Dongju quickly.

[Dongju] They thought I was dead.

Now that I'm back, they must be terrified.

[Ildo] Seo Dongju!
