(10 YEARS AGO)
4
00:00:22,289 --> 00:00:23,991
Why did you apply for this position?
5
00:00:25,167 --> 00:00:26,869
It's better to join the police.
6
00:00:28,045 --> 00:00:30,956
There's no pension,
and it's a contract position.
7
00:00:31,423 --> 00:00:33,042
Because I want to change the world.
8
00:00:38,764 --> 00:00:41,884
Look at you making such a cheesy remark
without even batting an eye.
9
00:00:42,184 --> 00:00:45,095
Doesn't it make you cringe
when you say things like that?
10
00:00:47,857 --> 00:00:49,183
No, because I mean it.
11
00:00:55,781 --> 00:00:57,615
(5 YEARS AGO
SECRETARY, JANG TAE-JUN)
12
00:00:57,616 --> 00:00:59,492
You can refer to this. Like this.
13
00:00:59,493 --> 00:01:01,111
Just check this part.
14
00:01:02,621 --> 00:01:04,031
Got it, sir.

(ASSEMBLYMAN LEE JONG-DAE)
16
00:01:19,847 --> 00:01:22,007
You call this a speech?
17
00:01:22,808 --> 00:01:24,176
Rewrite the whole thing.
18
00:01:25,352 --> 00:01:27,429
Train him well, for God's sake.
19
00:01:38,866 --> 00:01:40,025
You see...
20
00:01:40,492 --> 00:01:43,362
You're doing a great job,
so don't be discouraged.
21
00:01:43,829 --> 00:01:46,615
It's just that Assemblyman Lee
can't see the potential in you yet.
22
00:01:48,334 --> 00:01:50,369
I heard you received an offer
23
00:01:51,253 --> 00:01:54,456
from Assemblyman Song's office
to join them as the Chief of Staff.
24
00:01:57,676 --> 00:01:59,044
Yes, I did.
25
00:01:59,553 --> 00:02:00,838
That man, Mr. Song...
26
00:02:01,222 --> 00:02:03,640
Everything he does irks me,
27
00:02:03,641 --> 00:02:06,510
but he has such a keen eye for talent.
I've got to give him that.
28
00:02:06,810 --> 00:02:10,305
You got an offer from a big shot
in one of the opposition parties,
29
00:02:10,522 --> 00:02:12,432
so you should be proud of yourself.
30
00:02:13,233 --> 00:02:14,726
You're all grown up now.
31
00:02:18,948 --> 00:02:21,358
What about you?
When will you join the Assembly?
32
00:02:25,371 --> 00:02:27,239
You should start preparing for it.
33
00:02:28,374 --> 00:02:29,916
I should give it a shot next year.
34
00:02:29,917 --> 00:02:31,952
I see.
35
00:02:32,711 --> 00:02:34,413
Do you have someone who can help you?
36
00:02:36,256 --> 00:02:37,374
I'll start looking.
37
00:02:39,218 --> 00:02:41,260
So when are you joining Mr. Song's office?
38
00:02:41,261 --> 00:02:42,713
Well...
39
00:02:44,014 --> 00:02:47,141
How can I go anywhere when I know
all you can do is poke your nose
40
00:02:47,142 --> 00:02:48,677
into other people's business?
41
00:02:48,686 --> 00:02:51,513
Even when I'm here looking after you,
I'm still worried about you.
42
00:03:00,072 --> 00:03:01,482
What's with that look?
43
00:03:02,658 --> 00:03:04,909
I guess you weren't planning on taking me.
44
00:03:04,910 --> 00:03:07,078
Fine. Forget it, then.
45
00:03:07,079 --> 00:03:09,573
I guess I counted my chickens
before they were hatched.
46
00:03:11,583 --> 00:03:13,827
Forget it.
Don't take me if you don't want to.
47
00:03:14,545 --> 00:03:15,579
Goodness.
48
00:03:15,963 --> 00:03:17,122
Gosh.
49
00:03:20,634 --> 00:03:22,127
I'm touched.
50
00:03:25,764 --> 00:03:27,390
What are you doing?
51
00:03:27,391 --> 00:03:29,551
Seriously? Look at me.
52
00:03:29,935 --> 00:03:31,678
What the hell?
53
00:03:33,230 --> 00:03:35,557
I'm not crying.
It's just that the chili is spicy.
54
00:03:36,900 --> 00:03:40,229
Come on. What are you doing now?
55
00:03:48,078 --> 00:03:49,363
Seong-min.
56
00:03:50,581 --> 00:03:51,657
Both you
57
00:03:52,666 --> 00:03:53,867
and I...
58
00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:58,080
should get elected as an assemblyman
with a badge on our chest
59
00:03:58,297 --> 00:04:00,582
and walk in there triumphantly!
60
00:04:01,300 --> 00:04:04,586
A fair, corruption-free nation!
61
00:04:04,803 --> 00:04:07,597
A country
where all of its people can prosper!
62
00:04:07,598 --> 00:04:10,467
Let's work together
to create such a world!
63
00:04:11,977 --> 00:04:13,136
Yes!
64
00:04:14,271 --> 00:04:15,639
Like you said,
65
00:04:16,148 --> 00:04:18,941
let's make a change in this world!
66
00:04:18,942 --> 00:04:22,236
- Let's make a change!
- Let's make a change!
67
00:04:22,237 --> 00:04:24,523
Let's make a change!
68
00:04:25,199 --> 00:04:27,484
Stuck in a place
where the skies can't be seen
69
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,696
while having to fight against time
that can't be measured,
70
00:04:31,163 --> 00:04:35,492
you must push the rock upward
so that it doesn't fall down the hill.
71
00:04:40,214 --> 00:04:41,665
My apologies, sir.
72
00:04:46,970 --> 00:04:49,298
To survive in this disgusting world,
73
00:04:49,473 --> 00:04:51,049
I had to lower my head
74
00:04:51,433 --> 00:04:53,010
and swallow my pride.
75
00:04:58,524 --> 00:05:00,392
It's about time you were introduced.
76
00:05:01,276 --> 00:05:02,394
I...
77
00:05:03,070 --> 00:05:04,271
Come in.
78
00:05:09,076 --> 00:05:10,861
Hey, Mr. Jang.
79
00:05:13,914 --> 00:05:15,157
Hello.
80
00:05:16,083 --> 00:05:17,451
I am Jang Tae-jun.
81
00:05:18,168 --> 00:05:22,581
Just like that,
I managed to climb up the ladder.
82
00:05:35,227 --> 00:05:37,554
With my dogged persistence and tenacity,
I survived.
83
00:05:39,439 --> 00:05:42,684
However, there is nothing
84
00:05:43,777 --> 00:05:45,437
in my hands now.
85
00:06:00,008 --> 00:06:05,082
(CHIEF OF STAFF / AIDE)
(EPISODE 8)
86
00:06:06,550 --> 00:06:10,629
If I’m given the opportunity to serve
as the Minister of Justice,
87
00:06:10,888 --> 00:06:13,799
I will work hard to serve my country
and its people
88
00:06:14,349 --> 00:06:16,259
in the best way that I can.
89
00:06:17,227 --> 00:06:18,428
Thank you.
90
00:06:22,024 --> 00:06:24,025
Mr. Ahn is one of Mr. Song's closest men.
91
00:06:24,026 --> 00:06:27,437
He wouldn't have added this question
without discussing it with Mr. Song.
92
00:06:27,529 --> 00:06:29,363
Your name is mentioned here.
93
00:06:29,364 --> 00:06:31,616
It's weird enough
that Mr. Lee got picked as a witness.
94
00:06:31,617 --> 00:06:34,778
They're trying to blame you
for all the suspicions regarding Mr. Song.
95
00:06:35,954 --> 00:06:39,074
They're going to make it seem like
it was all your own personal doing.
96
00:06:42,711 --> 00:06:44,295
We will now accept questions
97
00:06:44,296 --> 00:06:47,006
for the Minister of Justice nominee.
98
00:06:47,007 --> 00:06:49,509
Each committee member will have
99
00:06:49,510 --> 00:06:53,429
up to seven minutes to ask the questions
that they have prepared.
100
00:06:53,430 --> 00:06:56,557
This confirmation hearing
is being broadcast live,
101
00:06:56,558 --> 00:06:59,560
so please make sure
you don't exceed your speaking time.
102
00:06:59,561 --> 00:07:02,772
Assemblyman Ahn Hyeon-min,
you may go ahead.
103
00:07:02,773 --> 00:07:04,774
I'm Ahn Hyeon-min from the Daehan Party.
104
00:07:04,775 --> 00:07:07,936
First and foremost,
congratulations on your nomination.
105
00:07:08,403 --> 00:07:09,604
Thank you.
106
00:07:10,113 --> 00:07:12,907
From what I've observed over the years,
I know that the candidate
107
00:07:12,908 --> 00:07:14,484
always does his best
108
00:07:14,493 --> 00:07:17,036
to protect the law
and never compromise his morals.
109
00:07:17,037 --> 00:07:19,664
I asked many people's opinions
while preparing for this hearing,
110
00:07:19,665 --> 00:07:23,577
and many of them agreed with me.
111
00:07:25,504 --> 00:07:26,796
It's pretty quiet so far.
112
00:07:26,797 --> 00:07:29,750
It won't last long.
It'll get noisy very soon.
113
00:07:31,009 --> 00:07:34,963
Assemblyman Lee Seong-min,
you may go next.
114
00:07:36,765 --> 00:07:39,718
I'm Assemblyman Lee Seong-min,
a nonpartisan.
115
00:07:39,851 --> 00:07:42,770
First, I'd like to mention something
regarding the submitted materials.
116
00:07:42,771 --> 00:07:45,273
We requested documents
regarding the social groups
117
00:07:45,274 --> 00:07:48,192
and organizations you were part of
during your tenure as a prosecutor,
118
00:07:48,193 --> 00:07:51,737
but we were told they can't be submitted
as they're considered personal matters.
119
00:07:51,738 --> 00:07:54,907
I think such documents are crucial
in determining your eligibility.
120
00:07:54,908 --> 00:07:58,445
We did our best to submit
everything that you requested.
121
00:07:58,829 --> 00:08:00,496
If there is anything that's missing,
122
00:08:00,497 --> 00:08:03,082
I'll answer whatever questions
you may have, right here.
123
00:08:03,083 --> 00:08:04,542
That won't suffice.
124
00:08:04,543 --> 00:08:06,244
I'd like those documents immediately.
125
00:08:06,628 --> 00:08:09,206
Please submit them before noon.
126
00:08:12,759 --> 00:08:14,509
Chairperson Lee, please tell him.
127
00:08:14,533 --> 00:08:16,137
He is clearly underprepared.
128
00:08:16,138 --> 00:08:17,847
This will set a bad precedent.
129
00:08:17,848 --> 00:08:20,884
Mr. Song, would you be able
to submit all the requested materials?
130
00:08:21,685 --> 00:08:23,220
Yes, I will submit them.
131
00:08:24,438 --> 00:08:27,064
You just made a promise
before the people of this country,
132
00:08:27,065 --> 00:08:28,691
so I trust that you will submit them.
133
00:08:28,692 --> 00:08:31,102
Yes, sure.
134
00:08:31,945 --> 00:08:33,654
I'll explain why it's important. When
a new Minister of Justice is appointed,
135
00:08:33,655 --> 00:08:37,359
all the corporations
change their law firms.
136
00:08:37,618 --> 00:08:41,787
To the ones where those who are acquainted
with the new minister.
137
00:08:41,788 --> 00:08:44,332
That is why I believe it's important
to find out
138
00:08:44,333 --> 00:08:46,535
who aligns interests with the candidate.
139
00:08:46,918 --> 00:08:49,579
- Am I wrong?
- I agree.
140
00:08:49,921 --> 00:08:51,756
And that being said,
141
00:08:51,757 --> 00:08:55,176
I'm sure you're aware of
the recent conveyor belt accident
142
00:08:55,177 --> 00:08:57,428
at Joojin Constructions,
a subsidiary of Joojin Chemical.
143
00:08:57,429 --> 00:08:58,672
Yes, I am.
144
00:08:58,889 --> 00:09:02,600
It was a truly unfortunate accident.
145
00:09:02,601 --> 00:09:04,810
From what I know,
you and Mr. Lee Chang-jin,
146
00:09:04,811 --> 00:09:07,104
the CEO of Joojin Chemical,
are very close. Am I right?
147
00:09:07,105 --> 00:09:09,857
Yes. We met at an entrepreneurs' forum,
148
00:09:09,858 --> 00:09:12,276
and we're still quite close.
149
00:09:12,277 --> 00:09:15,821
The documents you submitted
tell us how close the two of you are,
150
00:09:15,822 --> 00:09:17,281
so you probably can't deny it.
151
00:09:17,282 --> 00:09:19,067
When you were a prosecutor,
152
00:09:19,451 --> 00:09:22,279
you handled five cases
related to Mr. Lee Chang-jin,
153
00:09:22,579 --> 00:09:25,824
and he was acquitted of all charges.
154
00:09:26,333 --> 00:09:27,291
Mr. Lee
155
00:09:27,292 --> 00:09:30,211
did apologize
for the unfortunate accident,
156
00:09:30,212 --> 00:09:33,172
but he's completely ignoring
the aftermath of the accident.
157
00:09:33,173 --> 00:09:35,917
Isn't this because he's counting on
his friendship with you?
158
00:09:36,802 --> 00:09:38,928
Let me say this again.
159
00:09:38,929 --> 00:09:42,299
Mr. Lee Chang-jin
is my personal acquaintance,
160
00:09:42,683 --> 00:09:45,343
but I've never helped him
benefit or profit in any way.
161
00:09:45,769 --> 00:09:49,681
However, some unsavory deeds
162
00:09:50,065 --> 00:09:52,309
recently came to my knowledge.
163
00:09:56,822 --> 00:09:58,023
What are they?
164
00:09:58,407 --> 00:10:00,525
I recently found out
165
00:10:00,909 --> 00:10:03,786
about some unsavory transactions
between Mr. Lee
166
00:10:03,787 --> 00:10:06,831
and one of my closest aides,
who has been meeting him personally.
167
00:10:06,832 --> 00:10:08,999
It only came to my knowledge recently.
168
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:10,209
Please be more specific.
169
00:10:10,210 --> 00:10:12,954
Who is that person?
170
00:10:12,963 --> 00:10:17,918
I do not think it's appropriate
to disclose his name here, but...
171
00:10:19,344 --> 00:10:23,214
Since all of you want to know who it is,
I will tell you.
172
00:10:25,016 --> 00:10:28,428
I'm ashamed to say this,
173
00:10:28,603 --> 00:10:31,389
but it's my chief of staff,
Mr. Jang Tae-jun.
174
00:10:34,443 --> 00:10:36,853
What? What's he talking about?
175
00:10:49,833 --> 00:10:52,702
Oh, dear. Jang Tae-jun is in deep shit.
176
00:11:02,471 --> 00:11:04,054
Ms. Kang.
177
00:11:04,055 --> 00:11:06,891
He wants the hearing
to be all about Mr. Jang,
178
00:11:06,892 --> 00:11:09,469
not about his eligibility
to be Minister of Justice.
179
00:11:14,483 --> 00:11:16,393
The number you have dialed is not...
180
00:11:16,693 --> 00:11:18,186
Gosh, why isn't he picking up?
181
00:11:21,698 --> 00:11:23,108
Mr. Jang!
182
00:11:23,408 --> 00:11:26,410
Were you aware that Mr. Lee and Mr. Jang
183
00:11:26,411 --> 00:11:29,072
had been meeting privately?
184
00:11:31,666 --> 00:11:33,083
I only found out recently.
185
00:11:33,084 --> 00:11:34,835
According to a report we received,
186
00:11:34,836 --> 00:11:36,921
Mr. Jang threatened Mr. Lee using the fact
187
00:11:36,922 --> 00:11:39,298
that he works for you
to illegally obtain stock information
188
00:11:39,299 --> 00:11:41,800
and even asked for a director position.
189
00:11:41,801 --> 00:11:43,169
Is it true?
190
00:11:46,806 --> 00:11:47,806
Yes, as far as I know.
191
00:11:47,807 --> 00:11:51,101
Chairperson Lee, we'll have to
find out more about this allegation.
192
00:11:51,102 --> 00:11:54,146
We'd like Mr. Lee Chang-jin
to take the witness stand.
193
00:11:54,147 --> 00:11:56,099
Please proceed.
194
00:11:58,652 --> 00:11:59,568
What is happening?
195
00:11:59,569 --> 00:12:01,855
Mr. Song wants to use me
to make sure he is appointed.
196
00:12:02,239 --> 00:12:04,232
He's trying to put all the blame on me.
197
00:12:04,783 --> 00:12:07,152
If Lee Chang-jin testifies against me,
I'll be finished.
198
00:12:07,327 --> 00:12:09,411
But it'd only be words without evidence...
199
00:12:09,412 --> 00:12:11,322
Evidence can be crafted.
200
00:12:11,790 --> 00:12:13,491
He's so close to becoming a minister.
201
00:12:13,667 --> 00:12:16,369
Everyone in the prosecution is
at his disposal. He has the power.
202
00:12:17,295 --> 00:12:19,164
Destroy all the documents I have.
203
00:12:19,214 --> 00:12:20,999
Who knows what he'll use?
204
00:12:21,675 --> 00:12:23,425
Why don't we get help
205
00:12:23,449 --> 00:12:25,595
from Assemblyman Lee
to prepare materials for refutation?
206
00:12:25,595 --> 00:12:27,179
We have time until the afternoon.
207
00:12:27,180 --> 00:12:29,215
The confirmation hearing
will be adjourned.
208
00:12:29,683 --> 00:12:31,259
What?
209
00:12:31,601 --> 00:12:33,102
Before starting the witness' oath,
210
00:12:33,103 --> 00:12:36,105
please note that this part of the hearing
will not be open to the public
211
00:12:36,106 --> 00:12:39,233
according to Article 14
of the Personnel Hearing Act.
212
00:12:39,234 --> 00:12:40,693
- What?
- Can they do that?
213
00:12:40,694 --> 00:12:44,863
All reporters, note that no photography
or recording is allowed from here on.
214
00:12:44,864 --> 00:12:47,116
It's not open to the public?
What do you mean?
215
00:12:47,117 --> 00:12:49,785
According to Article 14.3
of the Personnel Hearing Act...
216
00:12:49,786 --> 00:12:52,705
I think this is crucial in determining
the candidate's eligibility.
217
00:12:52,706 --> 00:12:54,123
Why must we go off-the-record?
218
00:12:54,124 --> 00:12:56,458
"Because information
about a legitimate financial
219
00:12:56,459 --> 00:12:59,962
or commercial transaction of an enterprise
or an individual is likely to be... "
220
00:12:59,963 --> 00:13:01,672
Why are you doing this all of a sudden?
221
00:13:01,673 --> 00:13:03,257
Are you trying to protect him?
222
00:13:03,258 --> 00:13:05,801
Have we ever strictly abided by
Article 14 of the Act?
223
00:13:05,802 --> 00:13:08,596
Are you saying
we can completely ignore it, then?
224
00:13:08,597 --> 00:13:11,056
- We're going by the law.
- This is unprecedented.
225
00:13:11,057 --> 00:13:14,552
- You're protecting him, aren't you?
- Look, watch what you say!
226
00:13:23,194 --> 00:13:24,938
Quiet down, please.
227
00:13:26,114 --> 00:13:28,900
He brought Mr. Lee to make sure
the hearing ends up being adjourned.
228
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:33,454
If it's adjourned only after he brings up
the allegations about me...
229
00:13:33,455 --> 00:13:35,782
That way, all the suspicions
about him will dissipate,
230
00:13:36,291 --> 00:13:38,409
and people will only talk about you.
231
00:13:41,546 --> 00:13:43,672
- Come on.
- Sir, please reconsider this.
232
00:13:43,673 --> 00:13:45,716
Prior to becoming
a Minister of Justice nominee...
233
00:13:45,717 --> 00:13:48,719
- When did you find out about Mr. Jang?
- Have you been overlooking it?
234
00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:49,803
Tell us more.
235
00:13:49,804 --> 00:13:53,557
I only found out about it while preparing
for my confirmation hearing.
236
00:13:53,558 --> 00:13:58,354
I do not know any details
about the transactions between them.
237
00:13:58,355 --> 00:14:00,731
But as the protector of the Constitution,
238
00:14:00,732 --> 00:14:04,693
I believe that I mustn't side with him
even if he's my chief of staff.
239
00:14:04,694 --> 00:14:07,112
If I'm appointed Minister of Justice,
240
00:14:07,113 --> 00:14:10,950
I'll be sure to get to the bottom of this.
241
00:14:10,951 --> 00:14:14,070
The Seoul Western Prosecutors' Office
is already looking into the case.
242
00:14:14,829 --> 00:14:18,290
This will pain me for a while.
However, I promise
243
00:14:18,291 --> 00:14:20,785
that I will faithfully cooperate
with the investigation.
244
00:14:21,169 --> 00:14:25,373
Once again, I'd like to sincerely
apologize to the people of this country.
245
00:14:26,549 --> 00:14:28,342
Please say a few more words.
246
00:14:28,343 --> 00:14:30,260
- Did you really not know?
- How do you feel now?
247
00:14:30,261 --> 00:14:32,429
- Please tell us more.
- Another comment, please.
248
00:14:32,430 --> 00:14:34,841
- Sir, please tell us.
- Sir.
249

Did you really not know about it?
250
00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:44,851
Hurry up already!
251
00:14:48,697 --> 00:14:50,190

252
00:15:06,297 --> 00:15:09,417

- Gosh, what is happening?
- What's going on?
255
00:15:24,107 --> 00:15:25,683
Is it true?
256
00:15:26,735 --> 00:15:28,144
My gosh, it must be true.
257
00:15:41,875 --> 00:15:43,952
I'm Prosecutor Seo Hyeong-cheol.
258
00:15:47,714 --> 00:15:49,207
Is this really necessary?
259
00:15:49,340 --> 00:15:52,919
We were a family. I should at least
buy him a meal before I send him off.
260
00:15:53,636 --> 00:15:55,213
Sure. That will be fine, sir.
261
00:15:58,767 --> 00:16:00,051
Let's go.
262
00:16:12,072 --> 00:16:15,233
I'm so hungry from being
pestered by everyone since this morning.
263
00:16:15,617 --> 00:16:17,652
Eat up.
It won't taste good when it gets cold.
264
00:16:20,121 --> 00:16:22,331
What good will it do
if both of us fall into the water?
265
00:16:22,332 --> 00:16:25,368
At least one of us should be standing
to help the other one get out.
266
00:16:27,879 --> 00:16:29,129
Don't take this to heart.
267
00:16:29,130 --> 00:16:31,298
I told you
when you first joined my office.
268
00:16:31,299 --> 00:16:33,376
When I'm appointed as a minister,
269
00:16:34,010 --> 00:16:35,753
my district will be all yours.
270
00:16:36,846 --> 00:16:39,640
We don't even need to wait
until the legislative election.
271
00:16:39,641 --> 00:16:43,261
The by-election is just around the corner,
but the legislative election is next year.
272
00:16:44,354 --> 00:16:45,646
If I'm appointed,
273
00:16:45,647 --> 00:16:48,440
I'll give up my seat
in the Assembly right away.
274
00:16:48,441 --> 00:16:51,777
Then Uigwang City
will need to elect my replacement
275
00:16:51,778 --> 00:16:53,271
in the by-election.
276
00:16:54,030 --> 00:16:57,483
Are you saying you'll grant me
the nomination rights?

Goodness.

00:17:05,375 --> 00:17:08,043
And as for the allegations
that were brought up at the hearing...
280
00:17:08,044 --> 00:17:10,712
As soon as I'm appointed
Minister of Justice...

You see these conch shells?
282

They'll dissipate like snails
crawling back into their shells.

It'll be just for a day or two.
284
00:17:20,265 --> 00:17:22,891
I've already talked to everyone
in the prosecution.
285
00:17:22,892 --> 00:17:25,762
So just go with them
and let them ask you a few questions.
286
00:17:26,146 --> 00:17:27,889
It's just a formality.
287
00:17:28,189 --> 00:17:29,557
You understand, right?
288
00:17:33,987 --> 00:17:36,405
Goodness, what's there to hesitate?
289
00:17:36,406 --> 00:17:38,490

so all you have to do is eat.

was the one who exposed

your bribery case?

I had to withdraw from the race
because of that.

And he was elected.

switched to him, too.

Beats me.
That's what I'd like to know, too.

Prosecutor Seo is
one of Mr. Jo's connections.
347
00:21:59,127 --> 00:22:02,413
Mr. Jo told me to step back
from the hearing.
348
00:22:02,547 --> 00:22:04,540
I'm sure he's siding with Mr. Song now.
349
00:22:05,591 --> 00:22:09,545
Bringing in Mr. Lee as a witness
was all part of their plan.
350
00:22:10,263 --> 00:22:12,673
He was planning
to pin everything on Tae-jun.

00:22:12,849 --> 00:22:14,349
Will the hearing reconvene?
352
00:22:14,350 --> 00:22:15,684
Even if it does,
353
00:22:15,685 --> 00:22:18,137
we don't have anything
we can use against Mr. Song.
354
00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:21,481
What about the additional materials
from Mr. Song?
355
00:22:21,482 --> 00:22:24,477
I did receive them,
but I didn't find anything useful.

357

Mr. Song will be appointed
as the Minister of Justice.
358
00:22:30,283 --> 00:22:33,944
If that happens,
we won't be able to save Tae-jun.
359
00:22:40,293 --> 00:22:42,919
Mr. Lee, you should prepare
for the afternoon session for now.

I'll call Mr. Jang.

They issued an APB on Mr. Jang.

Did Mr. Jang really do something wrong?

412
00:26:23,933 --> 00:26:25,718

I told you not to worry!

00:26:33,943 --> 00:26:35,610
When Mr. Song worked as a prosecutor,
417
00:26:35,611 --> 00:26:37,654
he covered up Youngil Group's
slush fund case.
418
00:26:37,655 --> 00:26:41,074
That's how he got into politics.
Youngil Group is his weak point right now.
419
00:26:41,075 --> 00:26:42,700
I know that.
420

It's been settled that the hearing
will start with the rest of the questions.

you'll be asked some basic questions.

429
00:27:15,985 --> 00:27:17,986
and answer the questions accordingly.
430
00:27:17,987 --> 00:27:19,487
What about Lee Seong-min?
431
00:27:19,488 --> 00:27:22,949
Don't worry. We've already changed
the order of his speaking time.
432
00:27:22,950 --> 00:27:24,701
And Assemblyman Ahn will ask...
433
00:27:24,702 --> 00:27:27,988
questions Assemblyman Lee
was planning to ask before his turn.
434
00:27:28,038 --> 00:27:31,033
Until we resume, please get some rest.
435
00:27:33,085 --> 00:27:35,170
Why do you still look concerned?
436
00:27:35,171 --> 00:27:37,665
Aren't things going well
according to the plan?
437
00:27:39,091 --> 00:27:42,336
Thinking of that punk, Jang Tae-jun
is bothering me.
438
00:27:44,096 --> 00:27:47,682
You and he are no longer in the same boat.
What can he do?
439
00:27:47,683 --> 00:27:50,101
Both Prosecutors' Offices
are involved now,
440
00:27:50,102 --> 00:27:53,055
I'm sure they will have him
in custody soon.
441
00:27:53,230 --> 00:27:54,765
Please rest up for the time being.
442
00:27:57,234 --> 00:27:59,402
They suddenly changed
the order of your speaking time.
443
00:27:59,403 --> 00:28:01,939
They are trying to stop you
from asking these questions.
444
00:28:07,328 --> 00:28:10,614
Mr. Song will end up becoming
the Minister of Justice,
445
00:28:10,790 --> 00:28:12,957
so let's not provoke him
and end the hearing...
446
00:28:12,958 --> 00:28:14,584
Even if the hearing ends in his favor,
447
00:28:14,585 --> 00:28:17,629
Mr. Song won't let this slide.
448
00:28:17,630 --> 00:28:20,089
He'll put more pressure on us
from a more powerful position.
449
00:28:20,090 --> 00:28:22,126
But there's nothing we can do now.
450
00:28:23,010 --> 00:28:24,086
Let's start with this.
451
00:28:28,516 --> 00:28:30,975
The honorary chairman of Youngil Group,
Sung Yeong-gi.
452
00:28:30,976 --> 00:28:33,770
During the slush fund case,
he divided the group and stepped back
453
00:28:33,771 --> 00:28:35,188
as the honorary chairman.
454
00:28:35,189 --> 00:28:37,850
That's when
Youngil Constructions' value dropped
455
00:28:38,025 --> 00:28:40,360
and he sold it to Mr. Lee
of Joojin Chemical, after which
456
00:28:40,361 --> 00:28:42,612
it became Joojin Constructions.
457
00:28:42,613 --> 00:28:45,532
Mr. Lee bought a company
that was crumbling down
458
00:28:45,533 --> 00:28:48,993
and has succeeded in growing the company.
459
00:28:48,994 --> 00:28:51,788
This was possible
because he had an unexpected investor.
460
00:28:51,789 --> 00:28:55,041
LD Global from Singapore
invested in his company.
461
00:28:55,042 --> 00:28:59,913
The biggest shareholder with 33 percent
of Joojin Constructions' shares.
462
00:29:01,423 --> 00:29:04,543
LD Global... Is that a paper company?
463
00:29:04,927 --> 00:29:07,762
Yes, it only exists on paper.
464
00:29:07,763 --> 00:29:11,383
The real owner of LD Global
is Chairman Sung Yeong-gi.
465
00:29:12,935 --> 00:29:16,312
That means Lee Chang-jin
is only a figurehead.
466
00:29:16,313 --> 00:29:17,981
The real owner of Joojin Constructions
467
00:29:17,982 --> 00:29:20,316
is Sung Yeong-gi,
the honorary chairman of Youngil Group.
468
00:29:20,317 --> 00:29:22,527
Yes, when Mr. Song worked as a prosecutor,
469
00:29:22,528 --> 00:29:25,738
he didn't include any of this
in his report and connived at the truth.
470
00:29:25,739 --> 00:29:27,782
And with the fund
he received from Youngil Group,
471
00:29:27,783 --> 00:29:29,117
he got into politics.
472
00:29:29,118 --> 00:29:30,721
And I'm pretty sure the fund came
473
00:29:30,745 --> 00:29:33,122
from the slush fund
he created with the paper company.
474
00:29:33,122 --> 00:29:35,973
I think he set up the slush fund
by selling off the shares
475
00:29:35,974 --> 00:29:37,667
of LD Global.
476
00:29:37,668 --> 00:29:39,335
And the fund is being used to lobby
477
00:29:39,336 --> 00:29:41,330
Mr. Song and Samil Association.
478
00:29:43,424 --> 00:29:46,342
Request the Financial Intelligence Unit
for the overseas transaction.
479
00:29:46,473 --> 00:29:48,753
Once we trace the transfer
of the assets overseas,
480
00:29:48,777 --> 00:29:50,138
we can find the flow of the fund.
481
00:29:50,139 --> 00:29:53,842
It will take over a month to receive
such information from the FIU.
482
00:29:54,226 --> 00:29:55,310
Meanwhile,
483
00:29:55,311 --> 00:29:58,563
we must find a connection
between Mr. Song and Chairman Sung.
484
00:29:58,564 --> 00:30:01,149
We don't have much time left.
Where can we find it?

When LD Global increased the capital
by issuing new stocks on KOSDAQ,
486
00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:07,189
an accounting firm was in charge
of evaluating the company's value.
487
00:30:08,324 --> 00:30:09,650
It's Naon Accounting.
488
00:30:10,492 --> 00:30:11,985
Naon Accounting...
489
00:30:13,203 --> 00:30:16,205
They were once investigated
for fraudulent accounting and tax evasion.
490
00:30:16,206 --> 00:30:18,666
And Mr. Song was
the prosecutor in charge again.
491
00:30:18,667 --> 00:30:20,460
And of course, charges were cleared.
492
00:30:20,461 --> 00:30:23,288
I'm sure the firm has
some relevant files left.
493
00:30:23,672 --> 00:30:25,582
But do you think
they'll hand over the files?
494
00:30:26,963 --> 00:30:30,166
Mr. Jang will take care of it.

514
00:31:41,917 --> 00:31:43,577
Start the seizure and search.
515
00:31:44,128 --> 00:31:46,671
- What are you doing?
- I'm giving you a chance to choose.
516
00:31:46,672 --> 00:31:48,795
It'll be only 3 years in prison
and 2 years on probation
517
00:31:48,819 --> 00:31:50,049
for a simple fraud charge.
518
00:31:50,050 --> 00:31:53,503
But you'll serve 10 years at max
for fraudulent accounting and tax evasion.
519
00:31:56,473 --> 00:31:57,640
What is it that you want?
520
00:31:57,641 --> 00:31:59,885
LD Global's ledger.
521
00:32:00,269 --> 00:32:02,429
I think that will be enough
to save your life.
522
00:32:09,028 --> 00:32:10,486
- Mr. Go.
- Yes.
523
00:32:10,487 --> 00:32:11,647
- Here you go.
- Thanks.
524
00:32:13,657 --> 00:32:15,108
Ms. Kang.
525
00:32:21,832 --> 00:32:23,332
This isn't enough,
526
00:32:23,333 --> 00:32:25,543
but you'll be able to pressure
Mr. Song with this.
527
00:32:25,544 --> 00:32:28,171
Nonetheless, he'll keep denying
any connections with Youngil Group.
528
00:32:28,172 --> 00:32:30,749
Even so, it will leave suspicions.
529
00:32:31,175 --> 00:32:32,538
If he can't resolve them,
530
00:32:32,562 --> 00:32:35,112
getting the hearing report approved
will be difficult.
531
00:32:36,722 --> 00:32:39,466
Mr. Lee, the hearing will reconvene soon.
532
00:32:44,229 --> 00:32:46,181
Let's try everything we can.
533

(NOMINEE SONG HUI-SEOP'S HEARING)
534
00:33:00,387 --> 00:33:02,782
(MINISTER OF JUSTICE NOMINEE)
535
00:33:24,812 --> 00:33:26,979
Mr. Song,
didn't you investigate Youngil Group
536
00:33:26,980 --> 00:33:29,308
regarding their slush fund
when you were a prosecutor?
537
00:33:29,691 --> 00:33:30,817
That's correct.
538
00:33:30,818 --> 00:33:33,979
After the investigation, when some of
Youngil Group's companies were divided,
539
00:33:34,404 --> 00:33:36,106
they sold off a few subsidiaries.
540
00:33:36,229 --> 00:33:38,449
And one of them was Youngil Constructions.
541
00:33:38,450 --> 00:33:41,519
Mr. Lee Chang-jin was the one
who bought Youngil Constructions
542
00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:43,806
which became Joojin Constructions
that we know of now.
543
00:33:44,248 --> 00:33:47,659
This morning, you admitted to being
well-acquainted with Mr. Lee Chang-jin.
544
00:33:48,168 --> 00:33:51,288
By any chance, are you also
well-acquainted with Youngil Group?
545
00:33:51,755 --> 00:33:53,089
You sure jump to conclusions.
546
00:33:53,090 --> 00:33:55,133
I do not know anyone from Youngil Group.
547
00:33:55,134 --> 00:33:56,668
Are you certain?
548
00:33:57,427 --> 00:33:58,670
Yes, I am.
549
00:33:59,054 --> 00:34:00,380
Okay.
550
00:34:01,181 --> 00:34:04,843
Then, have you heard
of a company called LD Global?
551
00:34:06,103 --> 00:34:07,228
No, I have not.
552
00:34:07,229 --> 00:34:08,604
Assemblyman Lee.
553
00:34:08,605 --> 00:34:11,899
Please ask questions
that only concern the nominee.
554
00:34:11,900 --> 00:34:13,067
LD Global is
555
00:34:13,068 --> 00:34:16,154
the biggest shareholder with 33 percent
of Joojin Constructions' shares.
556
00:34:16,155 --> 00:34:17,522
Surely, you must know that.
557
00:34:18,657 --> 00:34:19,775
No, I don't.
558
00:34:21,285 --> 00:34:23,153
When Mr. Lee and I meet,
559
00:34:23,620 --> 00:34:27,699
we don't discuss anything
that has to do with his business.
560
00:34:28,083 --> 00:34:31,085
Mr. Lee, as your time has run out...
561
00:34:31,086 --> 00:34:33,087
You've met the CEO of LD Global,
haven't you?
562
00:34:33,088 --> 00:34:35,923
- Who's the CEO?
- Turn off his microphone.
563
00:34:35,924 --> 00:34:38,551
You know the connection
between Youngil Group and LD Global.
564
00:34:38,552 --> 00:34:41,804
- Why aren't you answering?
- Time's up.
565
00:34:41,805 --> 00:34:44,299
We'll adjourn for the time being.
566
00:34:57,613 --> 00:34:58,821
How is it going?
567
00:34:58,822 --> 00:35:00,948
- He won't talk.
- It's confidential.
568
00:35:00,949 --> 00:35:03,777
I don't think I can acquire the info
before the hearing is over.
569
00:35:04,077 --> 00:35:05,203
How's the hearing going?
570
00:35:05,204 --> 00:35:07,330
Assemblyman Lee is doing a great job,
571
00:35:07,331 --> 00:35:09,282
but we need definite proof.
572
00:35:10,500 --> 00:35:12,786
If I have nothing,
I must fight with my bare hands.
573
00:35:13,462 --> 00:35:15,755
Mr. Song doesn't know what card I have.
574
00:35:15,756 --> 00:35:18,291
I must use this opportunity
and drive him into a corner.
575
00:35:18,592 --> 00:35:20,426
Then, he'll crumble on his own.
576
00:35:20,427 --> 00:35:21,670
What's your plan?
577
00:35:22,596 --> 00:35:25,006
I must go into the tiger's den.
578
00:35:25,807 --> 00:35:26,925
I'll call you.
579
00:35:34,942 --> 00:35:36,268
Keep him for a few days.
580
00:35:36,735 --> 00:35:37,978
Okay.
581
00:35:41,198 --> 00:35:44,401
How did Assemblyman Lee find out
about LD Global?
582
00:35:44,618 --> 00:35:47,279
It's probably that bastard, Jang Tae-jun.
583
00:35:50,624 --> 00:35:52,742
Where's Tae-jun?
They still haven't caught him?
584
00:35:52,834 --> 00:35:55,628
No, not yet. He went to Naon Accounting.
585
00:35:55,629 --> 00:35:57,713
- What?
- But he had already left by the time
586
00:35:57,714 --> 00:35:59,166
- the investigation team arrived.
- You idiot!
587
00:36:01,009 --> 00:36:02,718
- Hey, Prosecutor Seo.
- Yes, sir.
588
00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:04,011
You moron!
589
00:36:04,012 --> 00:36:06,180
- Is this the best you can do?
- I'm sorry.
590
00:36:06,181 --> 00:36:08,724
Find Jang Tae-jun
and bring him to me immediately.
591
00:36:08,725 --> 00:36:10,260
Yes, sir.
592
00:36:12,729 --> 00:36:13,763
We should go.
593
00:36:14,564 --> 00:36:16,266
Damn it. That bastard.

jTBC E08 'Aide / Chief of Staff'
-♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
595
00:36:44,720 --> 00:36:48,006
I'm keeping him for the time being.
596
00:36:48,765 --> 00:36:50,967
What do you think he told me?
597
00:36:54,771 --> 00:36:56,389
What are you getting at?
598
00:36:56,982 --> 00:36:58,475
You want to drag everyone down?
599
00:37:00,402 --> 00:37:01,895
No, I want everyone to survive.
600
00:37:02,988 --> 00:37:04,022
Including you
601
00:37:05,115 --> 00:37:06,483
and me.
602
00:37:10,412 --> 00:37:12,489
It seems like you're mistaken
about something.
603
00:37:13,415 --> 00:37:15,249
You're just a chief of staff.
604
00:37:15,250 --> 00:37:18,753
And I’m the future Minister of Justice
who will soon have the power
605
00:37:18,754 --> 00:37:20,413
to move all the prosecutors in Korea.
606
00:37:21,590 --> 00:37:23,250
But not yet.
607
00:37:26,011 --> 00:37:27,420
It's such a pity.
608
00:37:29,056 --> 00:37:31,967
I know how much you wanted
to become the Minister of Justice.
609
00:37:33,810 --> 00:37:35,303
Are you threatening me?
610
00:37:36,605 --> 00:37:38,014
Yes.
611
00:37:38,774 --> 00:37:41,226
Go ahead and charge me
for blackmailing you as well.
612
00:37:41,610 --> 00:37:43,520
You've already dumped
all your garbage on me.
613
00:37:43,904 --> 00:37:46,273
Adding that to the list
won't make much of a difference.
614
00:37:56,875 --> 00:37:58,076
Mr. Song.
615
00:37:59,002 --> 00:38:00,453
If you want to live,
616
00:38:01,338 --> 00:38:02,956
you'd better save me first.
617
00:38:03,882 --> 00:38:05,166
Do you understand?
618
00:38:08,470 --> 00:38:10,380
Good luck with the rest of your hearing.
619
00:38:23,693 --> 00:38:25,020
Let's go.
620
00:38:30,242 --> 00:38:31,443
Take him.
621
00:38:52,889 --> 00:38:55,558
I'd like to thank all the assembly members
and the nominee
622
00:38:55,559 --> 00:38:58,060
for having attended the hearing
which lasted a very long time.
623
00:38:58,061 --> 00:39:01,981
I will now dismiss the hearing
regarding Assemblyman Song's
624
00:39:01,982 --> 00:39:04,191
nomination for Minister of Justice.
625
00:39:04,192 --> 00:39:06,561
The hearing is adjourned.
626
00:39:09,156 --> 00:39:12,575
- Good work, everyone.
- Let's go.
627
00:39:12,576 --> 00:39:15,536
What's your relationship
with Youngil Group and LD Global?
628
00:39:15,537 --> 00:39:17,913
- Please explain to us, sir
- Okay, we'll explain next time.
629
00:39:17,914 --> 00:39:20,458
- Please tell us how you're related.
- We'll tell you next time.
630
00:39:20,459 --> 00:39:23,169
What kind of company is LD Global?
631
00:39:23,170 --> 00:39:25,588
From what I know,
it's an investment company.
632
00:39:25,589 --> 00:39:28,466
What does Assemblyman Song
have anything to do with LD Global?
633
00:39:28,467 --> 00:39:31,177
I think you should ask that question
to Assemblyman Song
634
00:39:31,178 --> 00:39:33,929
since he's already acquainted
with the owner of LD Global.
635
00:39:33,930 --> 00:39:35,848
Before all these suspicions
get cleared up,
636
00:39:35,849 --> 00:39:39,018
I don't think Assemblyman Song's
hearing report
637
00:39:39,019 --> 00:39:40,804
should be approved.
638
00:39:42,439 --> 00:39:45,107
And more importantly,
I request Assemblyman Song
639
00:39:45,108 --> 00:39:47,560
to tell us the truth
regarding these suspicions himself.
640
00:39:47,944 --> 00:39:49,813
The most important issue...
641
00:39:51,531 --> 00:39:53,824
I'm so exhausted
after all that I had to go through today.
642
00:39:53,825 --> 00:39:55,201
Why did you ask me to come?
643
00:39:55,202 --> 00:39:57,320
I'm not the one who asked for you.
644
00:39:57,829 --> 00:40:01,116
Chairman Sung returned to Korea today.
645
00:40:09,966 --> 00:40:12,168
It's been a long time, Chairman Sung.
646
00:40:16,765 --> 00:40:18,265
How was your trip?
647
00:40:18,266 --> 00:40:20,218
You came back earlier than planned.
648
00:40:21,686 --> 00:40:24,931
Why do you think I had to
649
00:40:25,315 --> 00:40:26,683
alter my schedule?
650
00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:29,985
I want you to step down from the candidacy
651
00:40:29,986 --> 00:40:32,480
for Minister of Justice
before things get out of hand.
652
00:40:33,323 --> 00:40:34,281
Sir.
653
00:40:34,282 --> 00:40:36,825
I don't need to hear any more from you.
654
00:40:36,826 --> 00:40:37,993
You don't need to worry.
655
00:40:37,994 --> 00:40:41,656
- I'll make sure this doesn't affect you...
- Mr. Song.
656
00:40:41,706 --> 00:40:45,117
Is it so hard for you
to understand what I'm saying?
657
00:40:45,794 --> 00:40:49,986
I hope you didn't forget who helped you
658
00:40:49,987 --> 00:40:52,189
come this far in the first place.
659
00:40:52,384 --> 00:40:54,085
Of course not, sir.
660
00:41:11,945 --> 00:41:14,280
If the hearing progress report
isn't approved,
661
00:41:14,281 --> 00:41:16,907
it'll impose a great deal
of pressure on the Blue House.
662
00:41:16,908 --> 00:41:18,617
As the former minister stepped down,
663
00:41:18,618 --> 00:41:22,697
the President is even considering
to withdraw the minister appointment.
664
00:41:33,592 --> 00:41:35,926
What took you so long to get here?
665
00:41:35,927 --> 00:41:38,505
I'm sorry, sir.
I had to look into something.
666
00:41:42,475 --> 00:41:46,554
I think Tae-jun did something
during last year's legislative election.
667
00:41:50,650 --> 00:41:51,734
Lee Hyeong-bae?
668
00:41:51,735 --> 00:41:53,569
Yes, he was the detective in charge
669
00:41:53,570 --> 00:41:56,238
of Assemblyman Jo Nam-gi's bribery case
last legislative election.
670
00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:59,366
It turns out that he and Tae-jun
went to the same police academy.
671
00:41:59,367 --> 00:42:01,590
And they also worked together
for quite a long time.
672
00:42:01,614 --> 00:42:04,122
They've exchanged quite a lot
of phone calls with each other.
673
00:42:05,206 --> 00:42:06,874
Detective Lee Hyeong-bae?
674
00:42:06,875 --> 00:42:08,117
Yes.
675
00:42:08,793 --> 00:42:10,787
I'm from the Western Prosecutors' Office.
676
00:42:12,047 --> 00:42:13,331
Please come with us.
677
00:42:16,134 --> 00:42:17,460
Let go of me.
678
00:42:18,053 --> 00:42:20,304
Apparently, Tae-jun was the one
who reported
679
00:42:20,305 --> 00:42:23,557
Assemblyman Jo's bribery case
to Lee Hyeong-bae.
680
00:42:23,558 --> 00:42:24,850
After the case became an issue,
681
00:42:24,851 --> 00:42:29,146
one of the organizations that supported Assemblyman Jo
paid for Assemblyman Lee'selection campaign fund.
682
00:42:29,147 --> 00:42:32,816
And that organization
got exempted from the investigation.
683
00:42:32,817 --> 00:42:34,401
Tae-jun blackmailed them for money
684
00:42:34,402 --> 00:42:37,279
and agreed to let them get away
with the bribery in return.
685
00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:39,156
And that money was used
686
00:42:39,157 --> 00:42:41,860
for the election campaign fund
in the form of a donation.
687
00:42:44,871 --> 00:42:47,623
So simply put, you're telling me
688
00:42:47,624 --> 00:42:52,662
that Tae-jun threatened them
and received an illegal campaign fund?
689
00:42:52,796 --> 00:42:54,004
- That's right.
- Are you sure?
690
00:42:54,005 --> 00:42:57,007
Prosecutor Seo is investigating
the organization that funded Mr. Lee.
691
00:42:57,008 --> 00:42:58,418
He'll find something for sure.
692
00:42:58,426 --> 00:43:00,552
Let me think.
693
00:43:00,553 --> 00:43:02,638
The legislative election was in March.
694
00:43:02,639 --> 00:43:06,809
That's exactly when Tae-jun left
Assemblyman Lee's election camp
695
00:43:06,810 --> 00:43:08,936
and started working for me.
696
00:43:08,937 --> 00:43:10,138
That's right.
697
00:43:10,598 --> 00:43:11,706
This is so touching.
698
00:43:11,707 --> 00:43:14,817
Tae-jun left the camp
so it won't affect him.
699
00:43:14,818 --> 00:43:15,984
What should I do?
700
00:43:15,985 --> 00:43:20,189
I think this will be enough
to end Tae-jun's career.
701
00:43:21,074 --> 00:43:24,319
It'll be such a waste
to only use this on Tae-jun.
702
00:43:25,912 --> 00:43:28,323
If they're so close with each other,
703
00:43:29,082 --> 00:43:30,825
they should go down together.

708
00:44:08,872 --> 00:44:10,615
when he is being investigated.
709
00:44:14,627 --> 00:44:16,920
I didn't know we were so close.

a thorough investigation,

investigating everyone
735
00:45:31,621 --> 00:45:35,624
that took part in Assemblyman Lee's
election camp.

I know you're in there.
Please open the door.
862
00:55:11,825 --> 00:55:13,193
Just go back.
863
00:55:13,911 --> 00:55:15,404
I have nothing to say to you.
864
00:55:16,330 --> 00:55:18,156
I know you're disappointed in me.
865
00:55:18,582 --> 00:55:22,244
I'm sorry for making you go through this.
866
00:55:24,546 --> 00:55:26,373
Don't go to the prosecution.
867
00:55:28,008 --> 00:55:29,550
If you start getting investigated,
868
00:55:29,551 --> 00:55:31,302
they'll summon you again and again,
869
00:55:31,303 --> 00:55:32,553
and it'll never end.
870
00:55:32,554 --> 00:55:34,430
They'll even get your wife involved.
871
00:55:34,431 --> 00:55:37,600
I'll confess everything
and tell them you didn't know anything.
872
00:55:37,601 --> 00:55:39,261
I'll tell them I did it!
873
00:55:39,277 --> 00:55:40,854
And it's true!
874
00:55:43,341 --> 00:55:46,377
Seong-min, you were right.
875
00:55:48,112 --> 00:55:50,105
I must've come too far.
876
00:55:50,489 --> 00:55:51,857
I'm sorry.
877
00:55:54,076 --> 00:55:55,652
I'll take care of this.
878
00:55:55,953 --> 00:55:57,613
I can do it.
879
00:56:01,834 --> 00:56:03,660
I'll deal with everything.
880
00:56:03,961 --> 00:56:05,579
I'm sorry, Seong-min.
881
00:56:09,508 --> 00:56:10,709
I'm sorry.
882
00:56:11,218 --> 00:56:12,753
I'll take care of it.
883
00:56:33,198 --> 00:56:35,484
- It's nice to meet you.
- Likewise.
884
00:56:40,164 --> 00:56:42,790
Minister Song, that's enough talking.
You should join us now.
885
00:56:42,791 --> 00:56:44,375
We're all waiting for you.
886
00:56:44,376 --> 00:56:46,078
Come on over, sir.
887
00:56:47,796 --> 00:56:50,916
- Congratulations.
- There he is.
888
00:56:54,595 --> 00:56:55,796
My goodness.
889
00:56:55,929 --> 00:56:57,631
- Let's sit down.
- Yes.
890
00:56:58,348 --> 00:57:02,477
Chairperson Lee also put in
a lot of effort to help us out.
891
00:57:02,478 --> 00:57:03,512
Thank you, sir.
892
00:57:06,732 --> 00:57:07,940
- Thank you.
- Great job.
893
00:57:07,941 --> 00:57:09,768
Good work, everyone.
894
00:57:13,864 --> 00:57:15,315
Assemblyman Song.
895
00:57:15,741 --> 00:57:18,443
Now, you just need to get appointed
as the Minister of Justice.
896
00:57:19,369 --> 00:57:23,323
Today will be the last day
we get to call you Assemblyman Song.
897
00:57:24,541 --> 00:57:27,494
Is it okay if I call you
Minister Song now?
898
00:57:32,800 --> 00:57:35,635
If I start counting my chickens
before they're even hatched,
899
00:57:35,636 --> 00:57:38,095
people will think I lack prudence.
900
00:57:38,096 --> 00:57:41,133
Don't refer to me as a minister yet.
901
00:57:43,310 --> 00:57:45,353
Come to think of it, you're right.
902
00:57:45,354 --> 00:57:47,271
I'm a businessman,
903
00:57:47,272 --> 00:57:49,307
so I tend to be very impatient.
904
00:57:50,442 --> 00:57:53,236
If you're a businessman,
it's only right to be impatient.
905
00:57:53,237 --> 00:57:56,239
That's how you grow your business
and pay your employees.
906
00:57:56,240 --> 00:57:57,441
- Right?
- Yes, sir.
907
00:57:57,866 --> 00:57:59,700
By the way, about Assemblyman Lee...
908
00:57:59,701 --> 00:58:01,536
He acted as if he was all noble.
909
00:58:01,537 --> 00:58:03,287
But he received an illegal campaign fund.
910
00:58:03,288 --> 00:58:06,742
My goodness, I never thought
he'd do such a thing.
911
00:58:07,626 --> 00:58:09,494
Assemblyman Lee always seemed
912
00:58:09,878 --> 00:58:13,665
like a guy from the Joseon Dynasty.
And I sometimes even felt sorry for him.
913
00:58:13,995 --> 00:58:16,530
It's quite sad to see his career
get ruined like this
914
00:58:16,927 --> 00:58:18,594
just because of 50 million won.
915
00:58:18,595 --> 00:58:19,880
Hey, come on.
916
00:58:20,055 --> 00:58:23,300
Some people take big money,
and some people take small money.
917
00:58:23,343 --> 00:58:25,670
But big or small, it's still money.
918
00:58:26,645 --> 00:58:28,271
- You're right.
- So
919
00:58:28,272 --> 00:58:30,140
let's all just take big money.
920
00:58:33,318 --> 00:58:34,986
Cheers to big money.
921
00:58:34,987 --> 00:58:36,313
Cheers!
922
00:58:51,589 --> 00:58:52,871
(JANG TAE-JUN)
923
00:59:08,770 --> 00:59:12,390
I really wanted to build the world
we both always dreamed about.
924
00:59:15,235 --> 00:59:16,478
I'm sorry.
925
00:59:18,488 --> 00:59:20,357
You're on your own now.
926
00:59:21,491 --> 00:59:22,943
Mr. Jang.
927
00:59:23,327 --> 00:59:25,028
Just keep doing what you've been doing.
928
00:59:26,914 --> 00:59:28,490
You'll do a great job.
929
00:59:37,174 --> 00:59:38,667
Wish you luck.
930
01:00:00,822 --> 01:00:03,491
Assemblyman Lee, who's being suspected
931
01:00:03,492 --> 01:00:06,327
for having accepted
an illegal campaign fund,
932
01:00:06,328 --> 01:00:08,287
will be investigated
by the prosecution tomorrow.
933
01:00:08,288 --> 01:00:10,581
Meanwhile, the prosecution claims
to have secured evidence
934
01:00:10,582 --> 01:00:12,458
to prove the suspicions
regarding the issue.
935
01:00:12,459 --> 01:00:15,962
I want you to cause a bigger issue
regarding this case so that his name
936
01:00:15,963 --> 01:00:17,672
will be all over the news tomorrow.
937
01:00:17,673 --> 01:00:19,941
I've already sent additional information
to the press.
938
01:00:19,942 --> 01:00:22,802
And the prosecution will be appointing
a special prosecutor for the case.
939
01:00:22,803 --> 01:00:24,095
Good.
940
01:00:24,096 --> 01:00:26,006
Assemblyman Lee...
941
01:00:26,264 --> 01:00:28,265
He was such a hard-working politician.
942
01:00:28,266 --> 01:00:31,136
He's finally going to become a star.
943
01:00:35,691 --> 01:00:36,725
Mr. Song.
944
01:00:38,652 --> 01:00:40,778
You're soon going to become a minister,
945
01:00:40,779 --> 01:00:43,572
and Tae-jun's career is over.
946
01:00:43,573 --> 01:00:46,026
Does that mean
I'll get to take over your district?
947
01:00:46,535 --> 01:00:48,661
The chairperson
of the Judiciary Committee...
948
01:00:48,662 --> 01:00:50,655
Don't get too greedy.
949
01:00:51,456 --> 01:00:54,159
If you ask more than you can handle,
you'll end up in a mess.
950
01:00:55,711 --> 01:00:57,996
Yes, sir. I just thought I'd ask.
951
01:01:00,382 --> 01:01:01,590
You're good where you are.
952
01:01:01,591 --> 01:01:03,968
- Yes, of course.
- If the suspicions turn out to be true,
953
01:01:03,969 --> 01:01:05,587
he might end up...
954
01:01:07,055 --> 01:01:10,675
Gosh, it seems like it's going to rain.
955
01:01:42,299 --> 01:01:44,793
Seong-min. Both you
956
01:01:45,635 --> 01:01:46,962
and I...
957
01:01:47,929 --> 01:01:51,223
should get elected as an assemblyman
with a badge on our chest
958
01:01:51,224 --> 01:01:53,718
and walk in there triumphantly!
959
01:01:54,352 --> 01:01:57,730
A fair, corruption-free nation!
960
01:01:57,731 --> 01:02:00,733
A country
where all of its people can prosper!
961
01:02:00,734 --> 01:02:03,603
Let's work together
to create such a world!
962
01:02:05,203 --> 01:02:06,404
Yes!
963
01:02:07,298 --> 01:02:09,241
Like you said,
964
01:02:09,242 --> 01:02:12,078
let's make a change in this world!
965
01:02:12,079 --> 01:02:14,205
Let's make a change!
966
01:02:14,206 --> 01:02:17,701
- Let's make a change!
- Let's make a change!
967
01:02:28,720 --> 01:02:30,171
(JANG TAE-JUN)
968
01:02:32,933 --> 01:02:34,217
Tae-jun.
969
01:02:34,851 --> 01:02:36,052
Seong-min.
970
01:02:36,228 --> 01:02:37,387
Tae-jun.
971
01:02:38,125 --> 01:02:40,661
You don't need to go to the prosecution.
972
01:02:41,117 --> 01:02:42,735
What do you mean?
973
01:02:44,310 --> 01:02:47,054
And there's no need to feel sorry.
974
01:02:48,118 --> 01:02:49,716
What are you talking about?
975
01:02:49,717 --> 01:02:53,087
Let's meet. Where are you?
You're at the district office, right?
976
01:02:55,997 --> 01:02:58,199
Hello... Hello?
977
01:03:04,881 --> 01:03:06,458
Damn it.
978
01:05:13,122 --> 01:05:15,820
(CHIEF OF STAFF / AIDE)
979
01:05:15,845 --> 01:05:17,805
I’ll take responsibility for everything.
980
01:05:17,806 --> 01:05:18,806
Don’t give up.
981
01:05:18,807 --> 01:05:22,184
It takes ages for a flower to bloom,
but it withers in an instant.
982
01:05:22,185 --> 01:05:25,437
I want you to trust whatever choice
I decide to make.
983
01:05:25,438 --> 01:05:28,649
Tae-jun’s been missing
ever since he left the funeral.
984
01:05:28,650 --> 01:05:30,234
Did you really take part in this?
985
01:05:30,235 --> 01:05:32,444
You could receive
a criminal penalty for this.
986
01:05:32,445 --> 01:05:34,655
The viper lost its fangs,
987
01:05:34,656 --> 01:05:36,991
and the fox will soon get arrested.
So what do you say?
988
01:05:36,992 --> 01:05:39,201
Ms. Kang, people’s words
989
01:05:39,202 --> 01:05:42,947
are more feared than the law in politics.
