Episode 7

Jung Yoon and Dong Hui are
not answering their phones.

Seo Yoon...

let's stop the recapitalization.

- Let's reconsider the stake...
- No!

I'll proceed with the recapitalization
of Sung Jin Construction as planned.

Min Jae, Jang Tae Joo... and everyone
who participates in the recapitalization...

will all sink together.

I'll make that happen, Dad.

Prepare the money to pay for the stocks
by end of day.

Sung Jin Group will be in the hands of
my Sung Jae by tomorrow.

I'm going to send Won Jae abroad.

I'll give Auto to Dong Hui...

Then Jung Yoon and Dong Hui
will both be on your side.

Seo Yoon will go back to teaching...

Recapitalization, reconstruction...
she has too much dirt on her hands.

How could she touch a white
chalk with those hands?

When I hand over Auto to Dong Hui...

I'm going to hand him the documents
on Seo Yoon's law evasion.

She'll be reading books and studying
in there for a few years.

If you need some air, go horseback riding.

Seo Yoon taught me how to ride
a horse and a bicycle, Mom.

I'm not athletic at all

but Seo Yoon held the back of my bicycle
for over a week when I was seven...

She's a good sister.

She washes the dishes

then she sets the table for you.

I'll hold on to the Group until you finish school.

I'm going to start by changing the name.

From Sung Jin Group...

to Chung Ma Group.

Your father liked the poems
by Yoo Chi Hwan... 'Flag.'

This is a silent roar.

Sung Jae, that's how I've lived my life

for the past twenty some odd years...

just because I wanted to hear
Choi Dong Sung's scream just once.

When I held him, prepared his medicine,
and wiped sweat off his forehead...

that's how I lived.

Silent roar.

Now's the time for us to make a sound.

Say goodbye to them both.

When I pay for the stocks in the recapitalization
at the family meeting tomorrow

they'll find out who I am

and who my Sung Jae is.

Tonight will be the last time you call them

'father' and 'sister'.

Tomorrow afternoon, Sung Jae...

you'll have Sung Jin Group in your hands

and hear Choi Dong Sung's scream

and we'll leave this house.

I secured three institutional
investors as angel investors.

After the recapitalization,
we'll combine our shares.

The deadline for participating in the
recapitalization is 10:00 tomorrow morning.

That's when Won Jae will become
the Chairman of Sung Jin Group.

And Min Jae, you will become the Vice Chairman?

Until we get rid of the executives on
Seo Yoon's side, I should help Won Jae.

There is a family meeting at
10:00 tomorrow morning.

They'll want the shares from me and
my wife to be on Seo Yoon's side.

Hey hey Dong Hui! We already finished
the deal with you getting Auto...

Won Jae, I didn't sleep at all last night.

My father-in-law is like a real father to me.

It makes me feel uncomfortable
to go against his wishes...

On top of Auto and the Department Store...
I'll add Oil to a separate entity for you.

Let's do that, Won Jae.

So that Dong Hui can get a
good night's sleep tonight.

Within a month, we'll have ten of Sung Jin's
affiliate companies in our hands.

Tae Joo, Sung Jin Group is not a game we used to
play on a playground when we were little...

The game is too big.

You're still young.

- Let me give you some advice.
- Next time.

All or nothing.

I went all in with the down payment deposit.

If we fail... embezzlement, misappropriation
of public assets, fraud.

It's 1994 now.

The 20th century will disappear for me.

I'm sorry, I can't smile with you right now.

Let's laugh together later.

After we have ten of Sung Jin Group's affiliate
companies in our hands.

Tae Joo...

it's a fight within the family of Sung Jin Group.

There is no way their companies
will easily come to us...

They stole them, too.

Of the 42 affiliates, Choi Dong Sung
created only four of them.

For the rest of them, they didn't pay
what was due, they stole technology

and put pressure on funds.
That's how they stole them.

Let's steal theirs too.

On the first drawer of the desk
in the library, there's dried red ginseng.

Please make sure to take
that twice a day, Father.

There was a lady named Dangol Mom.

She was a shaman in my neighborhood
when I was growing up.

She lost her mind performing an exorcism
on top of the blades.

I was so afraid of looking her in the eye...

that I went around a hill to
get to elementary school.

Sung Jae...

are you afraid of me?

Since that day when your uncle came by

you haven't even looked me
in the eye, my Sung Jae.

Father...

I'm sorry.

The hands that held you killed your father.

The Chancellor told me...
that your thesis was great.

The thesis would've passed
even without my call

so keep your shoulders up
when you go to school.

Father.

What are we going to do about your teary eyes?

Chairman Kim of Dae Min Group put his house
in Sungbuk-dong on the market.

You went to that house to play
when you were in kindergarten.

You said you liked the swings and even
the pond in the backyard

and you said you wanted to live in
a house like that, right Sung Jae?

I put the deed of the house under your name.

Father.

When you get married and move out,
live in that house.

Have tea with your wife next to the pond

and push the swing for your child.

The things I couldn't do for my
children because I was too busy...

I wanted to do them for my grandchildren.

When I get married and have children

I'll tell them a lot about you.

Just don't talk bad about me.

Stay close with Seo Yoon like you are now.

I put your load on Seo Yoon's back.

It'll be tough and heavy.

Okay.

She wouldn't be the one to say
that it's tough and heavy.

Talk to her often

and take her out to get some air too.

I'll remember you for a very long time, Father.

When you get married and move out,
live with your Mom in Sungbuk-dong.

She always feels cold

so set up her room on the first floor
with lots of sunlight

and no wind coming through.

Live slowly until you are a hundred years old.

Even if I miss you, I'll be patient

so have a happy life for a
long time before you come.

Father...

Won Jae will attend the
family meeting tomorrow.

Min Jae will probably go to the
presidents' meeting tomorrow.

Just let him be.

I have a plan, Director Park.

Sis.

Here it is, Lee Tae Joon's Museorok.

Read them this month and check with
me at the end of the month.

Even for a business management major,
humanities comes first

and literature is the foundation.

Here.

Don't drive the car yourself. Always have
a driver even for a short distance.

Your driving is pretty bad.

I've had my license for 10 years,
Mr. I Got My License Last Year.

Don't drink more than half a bottle of soju.

And just one bottle of beer.

You're not good at drinking,
but you have a lot of pride...

Sung Jae, you...

When you're angry or upset,
don't try to feel better by eating.

You get indigestion a couple times a week.

Always have digestive medicine ready.

Who is it this time?

The girl who hurt my Sung Jae's heart.

I remember...

After you got rejected on your
first blind date in college

you were angry at me for two hours.

And after you broke up with Mi Jin,
you were in a bad mood for a week.

My brother's so handsome.
Why don't girls see that?

My problem is that I learned
about dating from you.

My problem is that I learned
about dating from books.

It's been a while since I saw you smile.

Sung Jae, just one hour a day, no...

be with me for an hour
every other day like this.

Answer me, kiddo.

I hope you smile tomorrow, too.

I will smile.

I'm going to ask them...
for our family to smile together.

I have a plan.

The money that's deposited to
participate in the recapitalization...

all of it will disappear.

Won Jae, Jung Yoon and Dong Hui...

they'll lose everything and
get kicked out of the Group.

I wish I didn't have to see
that happen, Sung Jae.

If you pay for the stocks in the
recapitalization of Sung Jin Construction

all of the money will disappear?

That's what Seo Yoon said?

Mom, don't pay for the shares.

Mom, maybe we need to stay in this house
until Father passes away.

All 42 presidents are waiting
in the meeting room.

Offer a virgin, it will rain.

Offer a baby, the rain will stop.

People have been make offerings to
get what they want for a long time.

But Director Kang...

no one wants to be the offering.

They want to be the priest
who conducts the ceremony.

I'm sorry, Min Jae.

I'll take care of myself from now on.

Min Jae...

don't go.

I put everything I have as an offering.

It's the altar that will determine
the owner of Sung Jin Group.

I'm going to be the priest this time.

Good to see you.

I'm Choi Min Jae, Director
of Sung Jin Construction.

Sung Jin Construction will become a
holding company of Sung Jin Group soon.

Let me introduce myself again.

I'm Choi Min Jae, deputy of the Vice Chairman
Choi Won Jae of Sung Jin Group...

with 14% of the Sung Jin
Construction shares.

Good to see you.

Let me tell you the motion of the meeting.

It's a motion to elect Choi Won Jae for
Chairman and Choi Min Jae for Vice Chairman.

This is the first time I went to the bathroom
three times after being constipated for 20 years.

I'm so nervous.

Ten minutes left.

Either eat 10 of Sung Jin Group's
affiliate companies

or eat black bean rice in
prison for over 10 years.

Tae Joo, you have to win.

In this world where I've never won...

Tae Joo, try winning at least once.

Yes, Father.

Seol Hee...

stay by my side.

We have five minutes left.

Lord Kim's man is waiting at Shin Il Trading.

If you pay for the shares now...

If it goes as Seo Yoon planned

all the cash I've saved over
25 years will disappear.

Everyone will know what I
want and who Sung Jae is.

Ma'am, if you don't pay for the shares...

If Seo Yoon's plan doesn't work out, Won Jae
and Min Jae will be owners of the Group.

Ma'am, it's time to make a decision.

You might find out about something
from the Chairman...

Choi Dong Sung... went to the doctor.

Find out... if he really went to the hospital.

- Won Jae!
- Hello!

- Did you have breakfast?
- Of course we did.

I'll get this over with soon
and treat you to lunch.

The first lunch I buy as the
Chairman of Sung Jin Group.

- What do you want to eat?
- What should we have?

Whatever is fine.

The Chairman doesn't have
an appointment at the hospital.

Dr. Park is also in Jeju Island
for a seminar right now.

- Stop the payment for the shares.
- I will.

You have to stay on Managing Director
Choi Seo Yoon's side right now, ma'am.

I know.

Seo Yoon is a lucky girl.

Although that luck won't last
for more than a few years.

I remember the day when Won Jae
was leaving for Europe.

Seo Yoon was busy working to stop Won Jae's
appearance in the prosecutor's office.

She got sick for three, four days
after Won Jae left.

She must have gone through
a lot at such young age.

Thanks to that, she became Dad's favorite.
It was worthwhile.

I should've gone through that
trouble myself, Seo Yoon.

The loud voice among the children that goes
outside the house is a shame to your Father.

I hope you all can come
together in this meeting.

Seo Yoon.

Was it a Pomeranian?

A rare, purebred puppy about this size.

The one Dad received as a gift from the royal
family in the Middle East when I was a child.

Gurumi.

Right, Gurumi.

Your memory is amazing.

Dad told me to raise her.

You and Won Jae were both jealous.

After about two years,
Gurumi had four babies.

One for Won Jae, one for Jung Yoon,
Sung Jae was too young.

And we gave two to Min Jae's family.

Won Jae, Jung Yoon...

Consider this the same thing.

You'll grow Sung Jin Group
and give some of it to us?

Why would you look at us like idiots

who can't even take care of the companies
that are handed out?

No, I know.

When I reviewed the Department Store,
the projects were really good.

I was envious of your marketing skills.

And Dong Hui, you have enough leadership to be
dispatched as a special prosecutor twice.

If you and Dong Hui work together, you can
easily take care of 6,7 affiliated companies.

- Won Jae...
- Wow...

now my Seo Yoon is grading, too.

Okay, Jung Yoon got 80 points...
what did I get?

Tada!

This is what I think.

It won't be as much as you want

but I'll give you enough as son
and daughter of Sung Jin Group.

But, Jung Yoon. Won Jae.

Not now.

Let's do what Dad wants now.

I'll take care of Sung Jin Group for now.

Like Gurumi.

After Dad leaves, I'll think about giving more.

When Myung Hoon becomes
the Chairman after he turns 30

I will give you more.

Looking over my shoulder for
Father and Seo Yoon...

I might have to look over my shoulder
for my nephew after I turn 60.

Jung Yoon...

Dad will be here soon.

Let's show him when he comes back.

Let's greet him with smiles
as a family, as siblings.

Father called me 'Jung Yoon' yesterday.

I guess we look alike.

Father's memory is worsening day by day.

The picture of our family in his memory,
the last portrait of us...

I hope we leave a good impression on him.

Eun Jung, I heard you went to
the department store yesterday.

The president and the executives were following
you around while you were shopping.

That must have been nice.

I wonder how long that nice feeling will last.

Jung Yoon, please hear me out.

I threw out the puppy you gave me.

Guess you didn't know. I left it out
on the street on a rainy day.

It was Gurumi that I wanted to raise.

But Dad said he didn't trust me.

After Gurumi had four puppies,
Dad patted your head.

You gave one to each of us.

Dad told us, 'Raise them well like Seo Yoon did.'

So I threw it out.

- Jung Yoon...
- I studied too.

But I wasn't as good as you.

I worked in the company too.
But I wasn't as good as you.

But Seo Yoon, I'm still Dad's daughter.

Dad can't treat me like this, can he?

Here.

Seo Yoon... Won Jae told me he'd give me
Auto, the Department Store and Oil too.

I thought about it all night.

If Father would be considerate of me
just as much as Won Jae is.

If he'd be a little more considerate,
then I'd also follow Father's...

Dong Hui.

Hey hey, Dong Hui, I'll add Electronics to that.

Wipe the tears off Jung Yoon's face.

How can you make your wife cry?

Seo Yoon, just give me the Department Store.

If you do, then before Dad passes away,
I'll come visit him every day...

I'll talk to him, laugh with him
and give him shoulder massages...

Jung Yoon.

When I become Chairman, Seo Yoon...

I'll buy you a puppy that looks
like Gurumi, so raise her well.

And when she has babies, give one to me, okay?

For the last 25 years, I've never
raised my voice even once.

I have to raise my switch today.

Seo Yoon...

I will give you my shares in
the scholarship foundation.

Mom.

That's the switch.

Hit Won Jae, Jung Yoon and
Dong Hui with that switch.

Seo Yoon, you teach them instead of me.

Seo Yoon, take the Construction shares
in Sung Jin Academy, too. With that...

- Sung Jae!
- Won Jae!

Father was worried about you again yesterday.

He can give me everything.

If he gives everything to the first son,
he doesn't need to worry.

You haven't done anything right!

Hey!

Sung Jae, stay out of it.

This is a family matter.

Jung Yoon.

Jung Yoon.

She came not even two years
after our mom passed away.

I smiled to make Dad feel comfortable.

I called her 'Mom', but...

she must think she's our real mom.

Does he think he's our real brother?

Jung Yoon!

Stop.

Jung Yoon...

I consider you my own daughter...

Then you should be on my side right now!

Dad's giving me just three golf courses...

you should tell him that he can't!

Let's stop, Jung Yoon.

Right, let's not do this any more.

Min Jae, Jung Yoon and Dong Hui...

They deposited the payment for the shares
of Sung Jin Construction.

The meeting of the presidents
is going on right now.

I should be Chairman... just about now.

Let's stop. Seo Yoon...

I don't think I can smile today, Sung Jae.

Dad, I couldn't protect Mom.

I'm sorry I let her hear things
she shouldn't have heard.

Don't worry. I'll stay with Mom.

Please proceed with our plan.

Destroy Sung Jin Construction, Dad.

The ones who paid for the shares
of Sung Jin Construction...

destroy them with their money, Dad.

Of course... you'd like to know
what the Chairman is thinking.

I will tell you.

Chairman Choi Dong Sung is
gravely ill right now.

He cannot appear in front of anyone.

He can't fire you or promise you a future.

Right now, what I, Choi Min Jae, will
say is the Chairman’s wish.

Start the vote.

The motion of appointing Choi Won Jae as
Chairman and Choi Min Jae as Vice Chairman.

Per the clause 4-1 of the
meeting by the presidents

we will hold a simple majority vote.

The Chairman has arrived.

Operation of elevator number 1
has been suspended.

The security team, begin Level A protection.

Strategic planning team,
please stand by in the office.

The Chairman is coming.

Who's the youngest in the president group?

It's me, Choi Hang Ryul of Sung Jin Telecom.

I started in the company in 1966.

Oh, Hang Ryul!

I assigned him in the accounting department
and he married a colleague within two months.

He was fast with making the
woman he liked his own...

he was also fast in getting promoted, too.

Do you still get allowance from your wife?

If 1966 is the youngest one...

all of you who are presidents now
must have started in Sung Jin Cement.

The cement plant that was 80 pyung
became 1000 pyung, then 10,000 pyung...

And the Group grew a lot, enough to give
all of you the title of president.

Now that I have enough, I miss my hometown.

The hometown of our Sung Jin Group
is Sung Jin Cement.

Your companies have shares in
the affiliate companies, right?

Send those home.

I'm going to make Sung Jin Cement
a holding company.

All the shares of the affiliate companies will
be transferred to Sung Jin Cement today.

Get it done before end of day.

I'm sure it needs to be done today.

Because you'll be declared
incompetent tomorrow...

Chairman Choi Dong Sung.

Chairman Choi Dong Sung has
anaplastic astrocytoma.

I'll make it simple.

Impairment in memory, speech, judgment...

It's a severe case of dementia.

The words and orders that Chairman
Choi Dong Sung is saying right now...

It's possible that he could
forget them in a few minutes.

It's Sung Jin Group that you
spent your whole lives growing.

Because of the orders from a patient
with a severe case of dementia...

who can't even judge right or wrong
from what he just said...

will you leave the future of 60,000
Sung Jin families in his hands?

Yong Jae!

My brother Choi Yong Jae...

recently had his fourth anniversary.

Chairman, you sent him
to prison then to heaven.

Do you remember?

You're all seeing this...

Chairman Choi Dong Sung, a patient
with anaplastic astrocytoma...

Chairman Choi Dong Sung who will be
declared incompetent tomorrow.

Chairman created the past.

I, Choi Min Jae, and Vice Chairman Choi Won Jae
will open up the future together.

You call the waning memory
of an old man dementia?

- Park Dal Hwan!
- Yes, Chairman!

During Typhoon Sarah, on our way to
give our aid of 2000 tons of cement...

the truck turned upside down,
do you remember that?

You stayed with me in
the clinic for two hours...

- Hwang Jung Shik!
- Yes, Chairman!

When we won the cement bid from
the National Land Reconstruction Agency

I bought you a house for a job well done.
You still live in that house, right?

Nine of us, including my grandson,
are living happily in that house.

- Jo Hyung Man!
- Yes, Chairman!

The leg you hurt during
the Gyeongbu Expressway

- it's still useful, isn't it?
- It hurts only when it rains.

The machinery was loud in the cement plant.

We asked in a loud voice
and answered in a loud voice.

Let's do it like we did then!

By the end of today... transfer all the
affiliate shares to Sung Jin Cement!

Yes! Yes! Yes!

Major projects of Sung Jin Construction
will be transferred to affiliate companies.

Give the bridge construction
to Heavy Industry.

Civil Engineering will go to the Corporation.

Leave just a desk, a chair, and
signage for Sung Jin Construction.

I'll leave the desks and chairs for
Won Jae, Jung Yoon and Dong Hui.

Let's find a day and go on a
field trip to the Cement Plant.

I'll pack the rice rolls, so Hang Ryul,
you bring the drinks!

Yes, sir!

Father!

Talk to me for a second...

Dad! Dad, I'm sorry.

Father, please calm down.

Dad...

Wait down there.

This desk was made with a pine tree
from Woonhyun Palace.

Prince Daewon oversaw Joseon from Woonhyun
Palace at the end of the Korean Empire.

Oversee Sung Jin Group from this desk.

Dad.

If the Chairman stays in the office all day,
then the employees become bothered.

Work from here in the morning...

and stop by at the company just for
a short time later in the afternoon.

Dad, I'm not yet...

I'm sorry.

How would a 29-year-old hang on to this seat?

I don't have energy left to
stay in this seat any longer.

I can be there for you if you want to talk.

If you have any problems, come find me.

Move all my stuff from here to my room.

I won't have any business
coming here any more.

- Jung Yoon. Dong Hui.
- Yes, Seo Yoon.

To be honest, I was going
to follow Father's wish

but Won Jae said he'd add Auto and
Oil to the Department Store...

Seo Yoon, I got tricked by Won Jae.

Please help me.

We borrowed 40 billion from the bank
to pay for the shares... what do I do?

Three golf courses... will you still
give me those, Seo Yoon?

Dad likes going for a walk with you.

Starting tomorrow, come home for two hours
every day and take a walk with Dad and talk to him.

Okay, I will.

It's going to be hard for Dad to
last more than three years.

I will give you one golf course every year.

In three years, all three
golf courses will be yours.

Dong Hui, spend a weekend with Dad.

He can't play golf any more...

Gateball should be good for Dad's exercise.

I will, Seo Yoon.

And Jung Yoon, apologize to Mom.

Yes, of course.

Jung Yoon, Dong Hui.

Thank you, Seo Yoon.

Thank you, Seo Yoon.

Won Jae, come up here.

I'm sorry, Won Jae.

You were greedy

and I was clumsy.

We went far away to arrive
somewhere so close.

I'll tell you again.

I'm going to take care of the Group
then hand it to Myung Hoon.

This is Dad's wish.

I'm going to do that.

Seo Yoon.

It's too much for one person.

Take the seat of the Managing Director in
the strategic planning division and help me.

Seo Yoon, I don't have
any shares... I have nothing.

That's why I trust you now.

Min Jae is still in the Group.

I'll take care of Min Jae.

Won Jae.

Thank you, Seo Yoon.

Don't forget how you feel right now.

Set up a meeting with President Jang Tae Joo.

Tomorrow will be good.

The reconstruction was suspended today.

If we don't pay the construction fee in a few
days, we'll be reported to the prosecution.

Let's do what Choi Seo Yoon tells us to do.

I checked everything on Sung Jin Group.
She's not interested in you.

If we just get Choi Min Jae involved in the
fraud and embezzlement of the down payment...

I don't care what Choi Seo Yoon says.

- Tae Joo!
- I came to tell her what I wanted to say.

Hey!

Sang Goo, do you have a lighter?

I learned very well from how you made
Hong Shik retire 10 years ago.

I said you'd get hurt if you
were out by yourself...

Jo Pil Doo.

What's with this behavior in
front of your elders?

Let's take a walk.

I've walked this far. Let's sit down.

'A very strong wind will blow. Be careful.'

Thank you for the advice.

It's thanks to you.

The proxy sale contract Min Jae signed
with you is under legal review.

He escaped the fraud of the 100 billion
down payment, but made you...

'The Sun and the Moon'...
a tiger is chasing me...

and there is a rope coming down from heaven.

I won't grab the rope.

I'm going to fight the tiger.

I'll keep you safe, Mr. Jang Tae Joo...

You won the bet this time.

I won't accept a tiny cut.

Aren't you scared?

The prosecutor's investigation will start soon.

What I'll be scared of is...

possibly wagging my tail for you.

That I might get on my knees
and beg you for my life.

That's what I'll be scared of.

But not yet.

He was sued dozens of times...

and investigated by the
prosecutors several times.

He started with a cement plant and
made big money from poor cement.

He took over perfectly fine companies
by pressuring them with funds

and made 42 affiliate companies.

Your father, Chairman Choi Dong Sung.

I like him.

I'm going to live like Chairman Choi Dong Sung.

Jang Tae Joo... what kind of man is he?

Exactly the same as you and me.

When I first got into real
estate, I had a big dream.

My dream was to be the pretty bitch
who owned the most land in Korea.

I became the pretty bitch, but after going
through this incident and that accident...

my liver shrank.

Now I just wish I had 200-pyung of land
and a 10-story building in Gangnam.

You must have had a dream
of owning the whole country.

After getting slapped by the powerful and
getting hit in the back of the head by the rich

a district would have been nice, or a
big cabaret would have been appreciated.

Jang Tae Joo still has the big dreams

that you and I had when we first started
in a gang and in real estate.

Let me ask you.

Your father, Chairman Choi Dong Sung
can live that way

so why not me?

An even stronger wind will blow. Be careful.

Prosecutor Kim, that's what I'm saying.

After being a prosecutor for 10 years,
you must know right away.

My Min Jae wouldn't do that.

Why would he bother touching
the apartment's down payment?

It's Jang Tae Joo, who did the proxy selling.
Yeah, sure.

Let's meet at Daechunggak
this evening. Okay.

It won't work. Seo Yoon already...

When I was doing well, the ones who got
my money are finally doing their job today.

The one who got dispatched to the
National Intelligence Service was...

right, Kim Duk Hwan!

I'm sorry. Yong Jae's not around

but I'll have to be away
from you for a few years.

A man shouldn't lower his head!

Fine, I'll go.

When the prosecutor asks, just tell him
that you did what I told you to do.

Tell him that the father used his son
to embezzle the down payment...

Father.

It works like that. When a father and a
son get investigated together

only one of them is sent to prison.

I went to prison three times for my brother.

I'll go one more time for my son.

My wife passed away from illness...

Yong Jae left in prison...

In this life of Choi Dong Jin,
you're the only one left.

Min Jae, I can never stand
to see you go to prison.

This is Choi Min Jae.

This is Jang Tae Joo. Can I see you now?

Choi Seo Yoon.

Just before, Choi Seo Yoon,
she was sitting there.

Now, I guess she's in the office...

The company, the house... on the seat
that Choi Seo Yoon is sitting on now...

I'll make you, Choi Min Jae, sit there.

Sung Jin Construction stock has been setting
a record low price every day recently.

What used to be over 10,000
won is 800 won today.

No way to get our money back, or avoid
the prosecutor's investigation...

Let's not avoid it.

Sung Jin Construction stock
price will keep going down.

Maybe 500 won? 300 won?

Let's buy them.

Be nice to your wife.

Borrow some money from Daehan Bank

and purchase Sung Jin Construction
shares at the current price.

Then you and I will become the majority
shareholders of Sung Jin Construction.

We buy the sinking ship...

Let's make it float on the sea again.

Secure over half of the Sung Jin Construction
shares at the current price

then you become the president.

I'll work from outside.

I'll buy land with no road access and develop it...

I'll start again on the bridge and civil projects...

Shopping buildings, shopping malls,
and apartments!

Let's make some money.

I can't block the subpoena from
the prosecutor for the both of us.

I said, let's not block or avoid it.

Let's go to the prosecutor's
office hand-in-hand.

Sung Jin Construction just needs to
guarantee the reconstruction project.

I'm sure the association members don't
want an issue in the reconstruction.

They'll submit a petition for us.

If that happens, and if things
go well, maybe we'll be out on bail.

Maybe a reprieve.

Sung Jin Construction will become a bundle
of grapes hanging from Sung Jin Group.

The bundle of grapes that won't fall
even if someone tried to make them.

Those grapes will eat up the stem

swallow the vine and eat up the roots.

How many years would that take?

Mr. Choi Min Jae, let's be friends
until that day comes.

What is it that you want?

Half. Half of what you'll own.

Friends share everything equally.

Of course they do.

[Three years later, 1997]

- Tell Tae Joo to eat.
- Okay.

Get up, Tae Joo.

Mom grilled yellow croakers!

Hee Joo... you like the guy you met
on the blind date yesterday, right?

My Hee Joo, you'll get married soon!

This girl! I grilled the yellow croaker
for you to share with Tae Joo!

Give him some.

Tae Joo needs to get punished.

What's the use of a smart brain

when he has no hair?

What's the use of a doctor when he's short?

What's the use of a house in Gangnam?
His face lives in a trash dump.

Tae Joo really made an effort.

Hee Joo, you need to look at the
inside of a man, not the outside...

Mom, he wants his own practice in Gangnam
for a wedding gift.

- I don't need to know his inside...
- We should do that at least.

If you get married to a doctor,
I'll give him his own hospital

- and an apartment in Gangnam.
- Tae Joo.

Can I just get married to a nice guy?

Find your own brother-in-law
and Mom's son-in-law separately.

Where have all your good years gone?

Tae Joo, Ye Rin wants me to ask you
for a job in Sung Jin Construction.

Your business card says President of Eden

but the rumor is that you're the hidden
power of Sung Jin Construction...

It's not easy to find a job these days.

Tell her to call me.

Tae Joo, Hee Joo is still a baby.

You should meet a nice girl
and get married first...

I can't, Mom.

I grew up looking at how pretty Hee Joo is,
so I don't really find anyone attractive.

Eat, Tae Joo.

This is Jang Tae Joo.

President Kim of Han Sung Steel is here.

Make your trip to the pharmacy.
I'll be there soon.

[Chan Ho 'Park Power' Goal of 10 Wins]

I didn't get much sleep watching
Park Chan Ho's game late last night.

Isn't it really amazing?

A pitcher from our country struck out
those big Americans.

Wow, Chan Ho Park!

And he makes a lot of money.

I'm really envious, Park Chan Ho.

Throwing balls under the blazing sun on a hot
day is tough work. What are you envious of?

I'm envious of the woman
who will become his wife.

Thinking about getting him good herbal
tonic and spending all that money...

Tae Joo, I'm really envious of the children
when I go to a restaurant that's really busy.

The mom's life is rusting in the kitchen,
the dad's counting money at the counter...

Their children will spend all their money.

The plum is nice. Do you want another glass?

Please spare me, Director Jo. Please help!

Let's save someone first.

- What about the medicine?
- Here.

President Jang, I'm sorry. I did you wrong.

Please, come this way.

No, President Kim.

A business could go under...

Payment can be delayed for over a year...

Running away after promising
to meet can happen.

I understand all of it.

Put this on the wound, and take this pill.

There is one thing I'm disappointed about.

You should've taken care of the 3.7 billion
construction fee of Sung Jin Construction.

President Jang, my Han Sung Steel
will go bankrupt tomorrow.

There is no cash.

We know each other, so I don't
need to get paid in money.

The patent and technology of constructing
a steel plant that Han Sung owns...

all you need to do is to hand them
over to Sung Jin Construction.

Then in turn, we'll give up the construction fee.

That's...

at least tens of billions...

When you're starving, you exchange
a gold coin for a sweet potato.

Creditors will take over
Han Sung Steel anyway

so take 3.7 billion at least and hand over
the technology to Sung Jin Construction.

I know your wife and daughter
fled to Singapore first.

You should meet them, they're your family!

I'm not allowed to leave the country...

My President Kim, you had a lucky dream.

I happen to have an extra passport.

The name is James Hong.

He looks exactly like you, President Kim.

There is also a plane ticket
to Singapore tonight.

Forget everything, leave everything

and go to your family, President Kim.
