ALL CHARACTERS, ORGANIZATIONS, PLACES, AND EVENTS ARE FICTIONAL.

We should meet in the future.

I believe in you.

I know that you will change the past once again.

Get her.

Don't think this is over.

Whether I drag you down or I climb up,

I will fight you again on an equal footing.

PRESIDENT WHO WORKS FOR THE PEOPLE! CANDIDATE 1, SEO KI TAE

- Jung In. Good work. - Good work.

Okay.

PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE

Ms. Seo.

We finally meet face to face.

What is going on?

You really don't remember anything?

How come you're a presidential candidate?

What happened so far?

Well, a lot has happened.

I had to undo the darn things...

I did with you.

Anyway, let's talk later if we have a chance.

I'm a little busy now.

Jin Woo.

What are you doing?

I said I need to go over the interview video,

they said they're going to send it before the debate.

DBS, SEO JUNG IN

My phone changed.

TIMES

Ms. Seo, this is the schedule for Candidate Kim Young Ju.

Do you have a plan at three tomorrow?

The number is...

Hello, this is Seo Jung In from Daily Search.

It's me, reporter Lee Jin Woo from Times.

He's still using the same number.

This number does not exist.

Your phone your father gave to you?

Why would you ask me about that?

You've used a company phone since you joined the company.

EPISODE 7

He joined Creation Party in 2015?

FORMING POWER IN CREATION PARTY FOUNDED BY AIDS OF MR. BAEK

To raise the approval rate of the current government,

until when are you going to make an issue out of the former president?

It's such an obvious repertoire. Even kids can see it through now.

- Congratulations. - Good work.

Please help us.

Let's go, sir.

PHASED STRUGGLE

ASSEMBLYMAN LEE JIN WOO, DAY 3 OF THE HUNGER STRIKE

Is your participation in this hunger strike now...

a political act?

There's some criticism from people who have said you're just acting.

What do you think about that?

While I was a reporter,

I also participated in strikes and empathized with labourers.

No matter what position I take on in the future,

I can't forget about my roots.

It wouldn't do to become like a certain someone,

who forgot about his roots after entering politics.

Tell us who you mean, exactly.

- That's right, tell us. - Who is it?

MR. LEE'S REMARKS GO VIRAL, APPEAR DIRECTED AT PRESIDENT SEO.

"REST FOR A MOMENT AND YOU'LL REST FOREVER." MR. LEE'S BEST QUOTES

People say that everything will turn out well.

"It's all right. It'll all turn out well."

"It's not your fault. You can rest for a moment."

It will be a disaster if you really believe those words.

Why is that?

Rest for a moment, and you'll end up resting forever.

LEE JIN WOO'S BOOK CONCERT

That'll end up leading to death by starvation.

Assemblyman Park, from your party, is being investigated...

for taking bribes. What do you think about that?

There should be a thorough investigation if there's a cause.

There are rumours you are interested in running for President.

- Is that true? - That is true.

I'm very interested.

- That's news. - Is that true?

What's wrong? Should I say I'm not interested, like the others?

- No, no, that's not it. - Please, tell us more.

- A word, Mr. Lee. - Please expand.

DOCUMENTS FOR APPROVAL

DAUGHTER

Hi, Jung In.

Should I come meet you to get a breath of fresh air?

No, no. It's just stuffy here.

You didn't have to come all this way.

I could've told you at home.

No, no.

I wanted to get out of the Blue House today, even briefly.

Is something going on?

Of course not. It's all the same.

Every day is a battlefield,

and everyone I meet seems to be a foe.

I can finally breathe easy, now that I'm here.

Dad, I called you today...

because I wanted to ask you something.

Sure, go ahead.

Is it something serious?

No, it's not that.

It's about Lee Jin Woo.

What about him?

Did something happen between you two?

It's odd that Jin Woo...

would suddenly enter politics in the last five years.

There's just so much I don't understand.

Say it.

Your daughter is listening.

Tell her what kind of man you are.

That way, your daughter...

will despise you even when you die.

Why are you suddenly bringing up Lee Jin Woo?

Are you asking why a man who saved my life twice...

has suddenly decided to oppose me? Even you want to know that?

No, Dad, that's not it.

You don't have to tell me if it makes you uncomfortable.

You know as well as I do,

that he's blocked everything I've tried to accomplish.

For the past five years, whenever I tried to do something,

Jin Woo stood at the forefront of the opposition.

You're not the only one who can't understand these things.

Let's stop talking about this now.

But Dad...

I wanted to ask about one more thing.

Did you find out anything more...

about the 2015 sit-in strike?

I mean with regards to Han Do Kyung.

What are you talking about?

I heard there's a mastermind behind that incident.

That mastermind is within your closest circle.

I know you won't be suspicious of anyone you're close with,

especially without any proof,

but be careful of Kim Young Ju and Nam Seong Beom.

I'll bring you proof soon,

so until then, keep a distance from them.

For your own safety.

CELL PHONE DETAILS

PHONE IS STOLEN

The cell phone was stolen in 2015.

Who stole it,

and why?

Those who know about this cell phone are...

Kim Young Ju.

I'm sure you realized that every time you connect with the past,

your cell phone acts up.

You don't have any more chances to change the past.

She won't be able to remember...

what happened to me in 2020.

I know that you will change the past once again.

After my last phone call with Jin Woo,

everything changed.

After the truth was buried in 2015.

What are you doing?

A way to find out what it is.

Someone capable of investigating the case even now...

There is someone.

There is someone like that.

The people's choice of 2020, the presidential debate...

among candidates will air tonight on DBS at 9pm.

After moving past Candidate Kim Sung Guk, third in approval ratings,

she has moved into second place.

Currently, candidate Kim Young Ju...

of the Democratic People's Party,

and the Creation Party's candidate, Lee Jin Woo,

are expected to face off.

All eyes are on this debate,

and each candidate has prepared to win...

- and will participate in today's... - Gosh.

Why hello.

You came all this way, my dear Assemblymen.

It was no trouble at all.

Let's go in first.

This way.

Here.

So you talked things over with Kim Sung Guk?

He suggested uniting...

with Candidate Lee Jin Woo.

But we'll have to wait and see.

We'll set up a meeting soon.

If we help Candidate Lee,

I'm sure he'll pay us back amply.

I taught him that well.

Kindnesses should be repaid, even after death.

No matter what, you repay those who helped you.

I think that's what it means.

You're right. It's correct.

What a relief.

What does this mean, that I'll support justice?

I'll just take this.

You can refer to this.

I already arranged everything with the emcee.

If it looks like you're losing to Lee Jin Woo,

he'll cut him off.

PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE

It's one minute to air. Please wrap up.

Jin Woo, you're so handsome.

THE PEOPLE'S CHOICE OF 2020, LEE JIN WOO

KIM YOUNG JU, LEE JIN WOO, KIM SUNG GUK

THE PEOPLE'S CHOICE OF 2020, KIM YOUNG JU

What were you talking about?

Excuse me?

You think I'll lose again, like five years ago, don't you?

Candidate Lee, to bring that up here, of all places...

I'm bringing it up here because I have no occasion to run into you.

I won't be manipulated the way I was back then.

I've grown up since then.

POLICE

It's time for the debate to start, right?

Yes, sir. It should be starting now.

I saw both candidate's pledges,

and Ms. Kim had many good pledges.

Increase welfare for the needy.

Increase labour income share by 75 percent.

Increase employment of permanent employees.

Increase medical support in isolated areas.

- I enjoyed reading it. - Thank you.

There's no need to thank me.

Your pledges were so good that I wanted to change them with mine.

There were many great aspects about your pledges as well, Mr. Lee.

That is, if you take out a few.

I know you don't mean it, but thank you.

But there's something that I'm curious about.

May I ask?

Yes, go ahead.

You have such great pledges,

but why weren't you able to fulfill them for the past five years?

Pardon?

President Seo Ki Tae is also a part of the Democratic People's Party,

and he had five years to fulfill...

these great pledges.

But why didn't he do anything? That's what I'm asking.

That's why I read the pledges that President Seo made...

five years ago.

They're identical to your pledges, Ms. Kim.

You just changed the percentage of the labour income share...

from 70 percent to 75 percent.

Are you giving false hope to the people?

Can you change things just because you say it?

Nice. He got her.

Aren't you going to clap?

Furthermore, you were...

the police director for President Seo Ki Tae's campaign...

during the 2015 elections,

and I believe you were the one who came up with these pledges.

Wouldn't this be considered self-welfare?

Isn't this plagiarism? Plagiarism of your pledges.

In the interest of time, we will end our debate on pledges here.

- We'll move on to the next... - Please be quiet.

Pardon?

Don't cut me off and be quiet.

I don't know...

what kind of conversation you had with Ms. Kim's party...

If I do it, it will be different.

I'm saying that I can fulfill those pledges.

That's why I stepped up for the presidency.

You're running for office to fulfill these pledges?

The pledges that President Seo failed to fulfill...

Why did you stop talking?

What about the pledged that President Seo failed to fulfill?

You're saying that you will fulfill the pledges...

that you have failed to fulfill for such a long time.

How do you intend to fulfill them?

Yes, it's me.

- Tell her to acknowledge it. - Pardon?

Tell her to say that the Seo Administration failed,

and it was the worst administration that should never exist again.

Tell Young Ju to say that.

That's the only way to turn the tables.

"I'll do my best. Just trust me."

- Stop saying these things. - Yes, sir.

Please give us a specific answer...

about what you will do and how you will do it.

Right. Everything you said was right, Mr. Lee.

The Seo Administration was inadequate in all aspects,

and it gave rise to doubt instead of confidence...

and division rather than harmony amongst the citizens of Korea.

It also had a pledge fulfilment rate of 12 percent...

which is the lowest in history.

Are you satisfied with this?

You pointed out the weaknesses of the current administration,

and you made personal attacks and puns...

to embarrass your opposing candidate.

Are you satisfied with yourself?

I know how Mr. Lee started out in politics...

and how he ended up in this position.

However, there's one thing I would like to say.

Politics isn't a variety show.

Saying whatever comes to mind, behaving in any way,

and only saying and doing nice things...

to provide the citizens with amusement...

isn't the behaviour of a proper politician.

I would like Mr. Lee to take this opportunity to ask himself this.

"Is Candidate Lee Jin Woo..."

"qualified to be a presidential candidate for Korea?

The debate is getting heated, so I will intervene.

He got her once, but she got him twice.

Why are you clapping?

We should give all the candidates...

an equal opportunity to speak during this debate.

Let's just listen to the radio.

For everyone in the Gangwon area...

Since we have run out of time,

we cannot allow anyone to give more answers.

Next is Candidate Kim Sung Guk's turn to speak on his initiative.

Next, according to the last public opinion poll,

Kim Young Ju had 44 percent, and we had 32 percent.

We were behind by over 10 percent,

but the response to the TV debate is really good.

I believe that it will be reduced to a single-digit figure.

I WILL BE SURE TO DO IT! LEE JIN WOO

If Kim Sung Guk agrees to unify with us,

won't this mean that we will win no matter what?

Of course. If Candidate Kim's supporters vote for us,

the game will be over.

I heard he was very good at tennis.

Hey, Jin Woo. I mean Mr. Lee.

I might not be able to get Federer,

but I'll find a top-ranking tennis coach for you.

I'll take care of that, so you should focus on your work.

Let's end our meeting here.

- Okay. Good work, everyone. - Good work, everyone.

Good work.

Hey. Why...

Why would you talk like that to me in front of so many people?

What's so bad about telling you to focus on your work?

Learning tennis and getting close to Kim Sung Guk isn't your job.

Even still...

I'm doing all of this so that you can be elected.

Hey, Jin Woo. That's that.

I have something to say.

Baek Kyu Min...

Jin Woo came to me...

and said, "Mr. President. I respect you. Please accept me."

"I will treat you like a father for the rest of my life."

That's what he said.

Were you talking about me?

Goodness, Mr. Lee. Welcome.

You got here faster than I expected.

There wasn't any traffic.

Is that so? Why wasn't there any traffic? There's always traffic.

Good question.

It's been a while since we met. Have you all been well?

Goodness, Mr. Lee. It's a lot of hard work, right?

No, sir. It's not hard work.

Let's go in. It's cold.

I heard they've prepared some good food today.

I enjoyed the debate last night.

You expressed yourself very clearly.

I was defeated very clearly.

I'll work harder next time.

But where's Candidate Kim Sung Guk?

What? He should be here by now.

Is he stuck in traffic?

- Hey. Give him a call. - Yes, sir.

I'm sorry for being late.

No, it's fine. No need to apologize.

This is Candidate Kim.

He will be on the same boat as us from now on.

He's our comrade from now on.

I’m looking forward to working with you.

Same for me too, President Lee Jin Woo.

Gosh, how heartwarming.

There's no need for a heater when things are this heart-warming.

Let's drink.

- Here. Have a drink, Sung Guk. - Yes, sir.

Cheers!

Cheers!

TIMES

Who is...

Ms. Seo?

You're reporter Myung Su Kyung, right?

Yes, I am.

What brings you here?

Actually, I heard about this case from Jin Woo.

I used to know him.

But why didn't he tell us?

TIMES

Jin Woo said I'll come here someday.

While he's talking about the wiretap, right?

What?

Help Seo Jung In whenever she comes asking for help?

Just help her if I say so.

I need you to do something. A wiretap.

- What? - A wiretap?

Whenever you have time, study up on wiretapping.

Oh, yes.

I remember.

You're right. He told me then.

Unbelievable.

But since when have you been working alone at Times?

When did Jin Woo quit?

In 2015.

There was another guy called Young Jae.

But he left with him then.

Why?

I've actually been having a hard time understanding it.

That Jin Woo left Times and became a politician.

I still can't understand.

That's how five years have passed.

I thought he would come back soon until then.

Anyway, you said you came...

because of the coverage of JC's charity event, right?

Yes. I've been looking for those behind the incident.

Whatever your reason is, give up.

Because there's no way.

Evidence or whatever. They're all gone now.

While we were preparing the report, it all disappeared.

What about the ledge with initials?

You know everything.

It's gone too.

Why? Did someone take it?

- Who... - Jin Woo did.

Jin Woo got rid of all the evidence.

To stop the coverage of the case.

It's really not far off now.

It's right in front of your nose. The place you want to go to.

It's all thanks to you, Mr. President.

I will repay you all my life.

Of course, I will keep the promise I made as well.

Of course, you have to keep it.

If not, there's no reason for me to help you like this.

From the beginning, you've been grabbing my neck for five years.

Sit down. You came all the way.

I wanted to meet you today...

because I felt so sorry for what you had gone through.

What are you talking about?

Your brother, Aide Lee Geun Woo.

I heard Seo Ki Tae, that guy killed him.

It's not what a human can do.

How can he kill his aide working for him?

If you trust me and hand over that evidence to me,

I'll take sweet revenge for your brother.

Honestly, do you think you can associate him...

with your brother's incident with such a thing?

You can't.

Seo Ki Tae, that punk will find his way out like a loach.

That means if I give you the evidence I have,

you're going to reveal my brother's incident, doesn't it?

And you'll remove Seo Ki Tae as well.

That's exactly what I'm talking about.

Mr. Lee is very quick at understanding what people say.

Is that why you became a reporter? Because you understand so well?

Hand the evidence to me.

Then I'll kill Seo Ki Tae and all his family.

Just be honest with me.

What? Be honest about what?

"My life is at stake on the evidence you got."

"So don't think about using it and taking revenge on Seo Ki Tae."

"It will hurt me as well."

That's what you want to say.

But to put it bluntly, how can you get Seo Ki Tae?

A president with a month left can do it the presidential candidate?

It makes no sense.

That's right.

It's awful to hear it, but it is true.

Gosh.

I didn't want to make things awkward between us.

So I tried to beat around the bush.

But you're too straightforward.

You make me embarrassed.

I know very well about the impact...

of the evidence I have on the country.

It will cause utter chaos and conflicts.

That's not what I want.

You getting hurt is even farther from what I want.

Let's be real. What politician has never taken a bribe?

Right. You're absolutely right.

It's nice of you that you have such a progressive idea.

But Mr. President, if I save your life,

if I help you go back to your warm private house,

not a cold prison,

what will you do for me?

I should do whatever you want. Tell me.

I can do anything for you except for one thing.

Give me power.

A power to take Seo Ki Tae down.

I was about to say I can do anything for you...

except for bringing down Seo Ki Tae.

But that's what you wanted.

Mr. Lee.

Seo Ki Tae will sit here soon.

Do you know what it means?

It means he will become number one in Korea.

To catch Seo Ki Tae,

you need to be a president for the next-next term at least.

Is the power...

you were talking about earlier, is the power I'm talking about now?

The next-next president of Korea?

Are you joking?

This is the only way for a guy like me to catch Seo Ki Tae.

Please don't ignore what I said.

Make me a president exactly five years later.

It's not the position I can appoint.

You think democracy is nothing?

I'll earn the hearts of the public.

I'm only asking you to establish a political foothold for me.

I need your support.

I need the support of the assembly members on your side.

If I give you my support,

are you sure you can get rid of Seo Ki Tae?

- Can I trust you? - Trust me.

I saved his life. I'll be the one who will trample on his life.

I like the spirit.

Although I'm not sure if I can trust the spirit.

All right. To trample on Seo Ki Tae,

what should I do for you first?

Mr. Next-Next President.

First, before you leave the office,

make the people on your side leave Democratic People's Party...

and form a new party.

Before that, throw away Nam Seong Beom and Kim Young Ju.

They wouldn't want me to work under you.

Does it mean a callus needs to be cut off to heal?

You talk like a tiger cub who is going to bite me later.

I can't really tell.

There are so many crazy dogs that talk like a tiger cub.

Whether I'm a dog or a tiger cub, I'll show you from now on.

You're definitely a dog,

but I can't trust you.

Even if you don't trust me, there's no other way.

If you reject my suggestion,

you'll spend the rest of your life in prison after leaving the office.

Mr. President.

You have nothing to lose. Just hold my hand.

Then I will cover your corruption for the rest of my life.

At that time, I was forced to do it...

as my life was at stake.

But who knew things would turn out like this?

Thank you, Candidate Lee.

How dare can I grab your neck, Mr. President?

You shouldn't think so. I received so much from you.

You're the only person I can trust now.

I'm not sure if I'm being greedy,

but I hope you feel the same.

What are you talking about?

Are you confessing your love or something?

No, I'm not.

On the way here, I heard something.

I have something to say.

Baek Kyu Min, that guy...

I heard you ordered a person in my campaign to look...

into the donation I had received.

TIMES

Jin Woo suddenly disappeared for a while.

Then he came back to Times.

He said he got a call from Former President Baek Kyu Min.

I don't know what they talked about.

But after meeting him, he became a different person.

He told me that he doesn't have to reveal the truth.

That it's useless anyway.

That instead of doing things like that, he should take revenge.

After that, he left Times...

and became a politician following Baek Kyu Min.

That's when Jin Woo started to stop the truth from getting out.

He removed...

all the evidence I had collected.

He even stopped other reporters other than me from reporting it.

To be honest, I'm tired now.

I don't want to do it anymore.

No one wants the truth anyway.

ASSEMBLYWOMAN KIM YOUNG JU

Did you want to know about it so bad?

Whether I received illegal election funds or not?

Oh, my. The alcohol is getting me.

I guess I'm old now.

I understand why you did that.

Trust in politics comes from mistakes.

Because you don't trust each other, you rely on using weaknesses.

And once someone has a hold of your weakness, you trust them.

That's how it is.

That's right. Don't misunderstand.

I'll apologize to you.

It's not like you got involved in bribery.

You're clean a whistle.

You've always been a man who's plain with his words.

Stop that.

The person you're with will have bad luck for three years.

Here you go.

- Thank you. - Of course.

Take care on your way home.

Should we have another drink somewhere close by?

- Let's do that next time. - All right.

- Take care. - Okay, okay.

He's got his wish. Let's go.

That old rascal.

Scheming away.

Do you know who Jin Woo reminds me of?

Who, sir?

Seo Ki Tae.

I keep thinking of Seo Ki Tae.

They both think they're so great,

but they're actually quite similar.

The things they do, the things they see and learn,

they're very similar.

Every time I see them, I get a bad taste in my mouth,

and the more time passes, the ruder they get.

Gosh.

I suddenly miss my mother.

Let's turn the car around and go to Pyeongchang-dong.

Yes, sir.

I heard this from someone in Jin Woo's camp today.

Apparently, Jin Woo and Sung Guk are currently thinking of unifying.

It appears to be the doing of Baek Kyu Min again.

I'm sure that's the case.

I'm sure he made a deal.

That's Baek Kyu Min's specialty, after all.

The Democratic People's Party hasn't changed at all.

They're always dividing or splitting the members internally.

We have these ruptures in politics because of people like that.

Half the Democratic People's Party broke off and left,

and now they're doing evil deeds with the Creation Party.

Whenever the President tries to get them to act,

they all just filibuster and block it with Jin Woo.

Is the National Assembly their living room...

that they just hang around there doing nothing? Do that at home.

That's why this election is so important.

Think about what would happen if they were in power.

What would happen to this country?

That's why we're struggling so hard now.

In the next administration, President Kim...

will chase out all of those scoundrels.

I'm sorry.

I was being rude in front of our current President.

Korea's one and only President is you, President Seo.

Jung In asked me a question.

What am I going to do if the people who tried to...

kill me five years ago, were you two?

Jung In asked me a question.

What am I going to do if the people who tried to...

kill me five years ago, were you two?

That's why I called you here today.

It's happened.

The thing I can't believe,

that unbelievable thing.

SEO KI TAE

We confirmed everything through Secretary Choi.

Kim Young Ju and Nam Seong Beom were the masterminds.

What should we do, Mr. Seo?

PRESIDENT WHO WORKS FOR THE PEOPLE! CANDIDATE 1, SEO KI TAE

Step outside for a moment.

- Will you be all right? - Why wouldn't I be?

My killer has come to me with her own two feet.

Don't worry, and step outside.

All right, sir.

Proof that Mr. Nam, President Baek, and I tried to kill you...

is all in here.

With this, the evidence should be sufficient.

Why are you giving this to me?

I want to regain your trust.

In politics, you can't trust anyone.

You trust in others' weaknesses.

Why should I accept you?

Why should I keep you by my side, when you betrayed me?

If you want to stop Lee Jin Woo,

you'll need me.

What?

Hold onto my weakness, and use me.

I'll do anything you ask me to.

I'll leave my political career in your hands.

You want me to take you back,

with just that?

Ms. Kim,

are you playing games with me?

You were also planning to betray us, though.

What are you talking about?

I know that you were planning to get rid of us...

and Baek Kyu Min after you become President.

I got a phone call from Mr. Nam in 2019, and found out that way.

Once you become President,

you abandon us all.

Those within the party who were corrupt,

those you worked with unwillingly to rise to power,

Baek Kyu Min, and all the others.

He told me you were planning to end their political careers.

So you tried to kill me...

because of something that will happen in a few years?

So you're asking me to believe that?

You must.

The reason you've stayed alive till now...

is because of that as well.

The Jung In of five years from now is the one who saved you.

She used Lee Jin Woo to do so.

Because of Lee Jin Woo,

so many things have gone awry.

Now,

he's even gotten to Jung In.

A FUTURE FOR THE PEOPLE! A HOPEFUL TOMORROW! KIM YOUNG JU

I'm sorry.

I called you here, and then made you wait.

- The reporters suddenly rushed me. - It's no problem.

Why did you want to meet?

Do I really need a reason?

I just wanted to talk.

I see.

Don't talk rubbish.

I don't need money from scum like you.

"Scum like you"?

You're getting so rash, Jung In.

DEMOCRATIC PEOPLE'S PARTY

There's a misunderstanding...

between the two of us that we need to resolve.

Isn't that right?

What kind of misunderstanding?

You don't need to act. I know everything.

In 2015,

Lee Jin Woo told me everything.

You got in contact with him by phone and stopped us.

I understand how you feel. You must hate me.

But all of that is in the past now.

It might be in the past to you,

but to me, it was only a few days ago.

The person I remember you to be is someone who tried to kill my father,

and you did things that were even worse...

It seems like you don't remember anything.

I don't know how I was a couple of days ago in your memory,

but I'm not interested in that anymore.

What on earth did you do?

What did you do? The truth got completely covered up.

I didn't do anything.

Things...

just turned around because of someone.

Who is it?

Jung In.

Must you know everything?

Everything is good now.

President Seo is alive,

and the elections are right around the corner for me too.

Isn't it better for all of us if we forget the past...

and focus on the present?

How is it good for everyone?

It's just good for you.

If you don't want to tell me, forget it.

I'll just do a cover on it, or...

If I want you to understand,

what on earth must I do?

Sitting down and trying to convince you doesn't work.

Nothing I do works with the likes of you...

Even if you try to kill me,

it won't work.

You tried to kill me.

Then what should I do?

Just be honest with me.

How did all of this...

happen?

DEMOCRATIC PEOPLE'S PARTY

The President knows too.

- What? - That we tried to kill him.

He covered it up knowing everything.

It's because he needs us...

after Lee Jin Woo, that jerk, turned the tables upside down.

KIM YOUNG JU

DEMOCRATIC PEOPLE'S PARTY

Don't you think things are weird right now?

Why is Lee Jin Woo sticking with Baek Kyu Min?

And why is Mr. President treating me so well?

Lee Jin Woo has something on your father.

As a result, he has something on us as well.

Are you talking about JC Telecom?

That's why we're all trying to stop Lee Jin Woo.

So Jung In, you need to help us too.

Right now, in 2020, we're at war.

Either we survive...

or Lee Jin Woo survives.

It can only be one of us.

EMBRACING THE FUTURE OF KOREA

EMBRACING THE FUTURE OF KOREA, KIM YOUNG JU

He's not here yet.

CHANGING KOREA, LEE JIN WOO WILL CREATE A BETTER COUNTRY!

Candidate Kim is not as punctual as I thought.

We're going to announce the unification of candidates soon.

- Hello? - Hello, Candidate Kim.

Why are you calling me?

I want to relay a message from him.

He asked that you don't go to Candidate Lee.

If you go,

all the material we have that you divided research service expenses...

With other assemblymen will go straight to the Prosecution.

LEE JIN WOO

CHANGING KOREA, LEE JIN WOO WILL CREATE A BETTER COUNTRY!

Mr. Kim. Why aren't you here yet?

No. There's no need to give me excuses.

Who is it? Is it Mr. Nam?

Jin Woo.

LEE JIN WOO

What brings you by without calling first?

I WILL BE SURE TO DO IT!

What brings you here?

Why would you surprise someone by showing up suddenly?

I came to find out the truth.

What truth?

Are you still obsessing over the truth?

Aren't you sick of it?

I just met with Kim Young Ju.

So tell me now.

What happened in 2015,

and what happened to make you change into someone so different?

If I tell you...

If I tell you the truth that you like so much,

- will you be able to accept it? - Yes.

It will be really different from the truth that you want.

Is that okay?

You can see for yourself.

NOVEMBER 6, 5G COMMUNICATIONS NETWORK AUCTION

SEO KI TAE, KIM YOUNG JU, NAM SEONG BEOM

This is a ledger with real names in it.

Yes, it is.

I obtained this in 2015.

Since it has real names in it,

it's obvious that the person who gave them the money wrote it.

I thought so which is why I tailed CEO Park for a while.

That's how I ended up finding this in CEO Park's secret office.

You're saying my father took money from Park Chan Yong, right?

Haven't you figured out what kind of person your father is yet?

Don't escalate things any further, Geun Woo.

We need to get to the Blue House together.

I promise if you let this slide just this one time...

I'm taking this public.

Before I do, please acknowledge your wrongs and step down.

That's my final request, Mr. Seo.

This is my final warning to you too.

If you don't stop now,

I'll have to block you.

No matter what, I'll stop you using any means necessary.

- I know you're not so rotten... - This is...

the true side of the person I risked my life twice to save...

- That's why I told you this... - and the truth you wanted to find.

before I went to the reporters.

Didn't I tell you last time...

that I needed to turn back all that nonsense I did with you?

Your father... That jerk, Seo Ki Tae, who killed my brother...

should have died that day.

Are you saying that Jung In is with Lee Jin Woo?

Yes, sir.

I verified that she went into Lee Jin Woo's campaign headquarters.

Okay. I understand. You can go.

Yes, sir.

DAUGHTER

KIM YOUNG JU, LEE JIN WOO, KIM SUNG GUK, PARK SOON IL

CHANGING KOREA, LEE JIN WOO WILL CREATE A BETTER COUNTRY!

We must right what is wrong.

Turning a blind eye to it won't make it go away.

Rather than ignoring it, we must face it and go head-on.

That's how the world will change.

DAD

Please leave a message after the tone.

President Seo Ki Tae...

has invited the three presidential candidates to the Blue House.

He will have tea with the three presidential candidates...

and request a fair election.

Mr. Nam.

Mr. Lee.

How are you?

Thank you for the gift yesterday.

Well, it's not a big deal.

There's something I always wanted to ask.

Have you decided to work under Ms. Kim?

What do you mean "under"?

That's true though. You always clean up after her.

Your life is basically a tissue.

Wiping her bum and stuff.

What? "A tissue"?

Hey! Do you want to get beaten up?

Come here, you punk!

I'll apologize for him.

What he said was too harsh.

You look great in this suit today.

If I put this in your pocket, you'll look much better.

A tissue. The embossed.

What the...

My goodness.

Darn it!

I heard you met Jung In yesterday.

How did you know?

I guess you're spying on a presidential candidate.

What did you say?

What did you say to my daughter?

She asked me to tell her the truth,

so I showed her all the evidence I got.

She should know the truth.

The truth about the father...

she tried to save so many times.

- Lee Jin Woo, you... - Don't get mad.

Why are you getting mad about things like this?

There will be many more things you'll get mad about.

Mr. President is coming.

It's nice to see you, Ms. Kim.

Thank you very much for the invitation.

Thank you for the invitation.

Why don't you hold my hand? The reporters are watching.

Then I'll hold it for a moment.

A dirty hand.

Just wait a little.

Because the moment you leave the office,

you'll lose everything you have.

Okay, try it.

Because by the moment I leave the office,

I'll make you lose everything you have.

TIMES

Why are you stopping the truth from coming out?

Just live an ordinary life.

Don't interrupt what I do. Or you'll get hurt along with your father.

The two are on the complete opposite side of the spectrum.

How can they agree to be unified?

I'm asking if you had Lee Jin Woo's brother die.

Hold my hand, Kyu Min.

Seo Jung In from DBS.

If it's involved with politics, the truth doesn't matter anymore.

Jin Woo, why did you become like this?

If you're going to leave, leave without saying such things!

I'm going to get the ledger from the Jin Woo I know.
