(Episode 23)

You infuriating jerk.

My gosh, after observing you,

I thought it was just your actions.

But your words are vulgar too.

How could you say something like that?

I thought you were an educated guy.

What?

"Actions"? "Guy"?

Oh, my. This is unbelievable.

Fine. You win.

Congratulations.

By the way, did you receive just this photo?

It didn't come as a set?

No.

Look at you, Woo Jin.

Why? Now that you have a photo from Cho Hyung Joon,

are you so happy that you can't see things straight?

My gosh, this guy, Mr. Cho, can be quite mean.

What does he mean?

Am I the only one in the photo in your eyes?

Does it look like I'm having fun and drinks in the photo?

I can see many people other than me in this photo.

From our assistant chiefs up.

Chief Prosecutor, Prosecutor General,

up to the Minister of Justice.

Anyway, photos proving corruption...

by the jerks above me who can fire me.

Bring me that.

- Right. Everyone else was... - Gosh, Woo Jin.

outside this camera angle.

The moment you take this out to threaten me,

people outside this camera angle...

won't be able to keep you alive.

I bet he gave this photo after figuring that out.

Right. You win.

I will step down from my post. Are you happy?

I'm not brave like you. I won't threaten people in there.

I will just resign without causing any trouble.

Well, you need to make sure that you're alive first.

Sir.

I've crossed the line.

As I felt I was running out of time,

I've acted rashly without thinking about it first.

Please spare me.

You will...

have my loyalty for the rest of my life.

(Big Issue)

Why? Are you worried that I might have been canned?

Congratulations.

Congratulations, my foot.

I was barely able to keep myself alive.

Gosh.

Cho Hyung Joon got me good this time.

Pardon? What do you mean?

- Is that Han Seok Joo's file? - Yes.

That arrogant jerk.

That trash photographer from Nara News.

I knew it. His face seemed familiar.

He's the most popular paparazzo after Lim Deok Hoon in that field.

He's the one who took the photo of Jin Suk.

Is that so?

On top of that,

he's Ji Soo Hyun's lover.

Then, it means that this guy was the most important player.

In that case,

we must get this guy no matter what.

Did you come to save me?

Naturally.

Do you think I packed food and came for a leisurely visit?

Seok Joo came.

I'm not trying to bother you or anything.

Just text me back and tell me that you're doing fine.

I'm worried.

You sure are enjoying yourself.

Yes, I am.

It's Earl Grey from the place you like.

This is paradise.

I'm sure you don't want to come to work.

But why won't you answer your phone?

Don't you have a conscience? Shouldn't you come in by now?

You sound like you'll punch me.

What do you plan to do?

I'm losing my mind.

Everyone's causing me grief because you're not there.

- What is this? - It's a list of agencies,

celebrities, and website that filed complaints...

with Cha Woo Jin...

in order to attack you while you were in custody.

Good work.

I thought about squashing them myself,

but I thought it would be better for you...

to make examples out of them when you got out.

Leave them alone.

Pardon? What do you mean?

Just leave them alone.

They probably harbor grudges against me.

Ms. Ji.

You always said...

if you let things slide without punishing them,

you'll regret it for sure.

If you don't punish them now,

they'll think we're too afraid of the prosecutors...

to do anything to them even if they report us.

It may instill an improper attitude in them.

- Young Mi. - Yes.

Among the people and companies that reported me,

did any of them lose their business because of us?

Did anyone report me at the risk of their photos being released?

No, none.

So just drop it.

These punks are like haters...

who post negative comments and talk ill of people.

Since I got out without harm, they'll be shaking in their boots.

Send them a yellow card now and then as appropriate.

Yes, ma'am.

But Ms. Ji...

Yes?

Are you seeing someone?

What?

Since when did the world become so beautiful?

- Young Mi. - Yes?

Go down.

Sorry? Go down?

I have nothing more to teach you.

Are you telling me to leave the company?

What?

You be chief editor.

I'll quit.

I thought I was being fired.

Never.

I'm firing myself.

You can't.

No. I refuse.

I'm sick of it after doing it for the past few days.

No one follows orders, and they're evil, conniving hyenas.

Naturally.

We hired them because they were hyenas.

That's right.

Then they should be fired.

Sorry?

Hyenas that don't obey the new queen...

are either kicked out of the pack or killed.

That's how I claimed that title myself.

Ms. Ji.

I don't want to be kicked out like that by you.

Ms. Ji, what's wrong with you?

I want to rest now, that's why.

Fine. Do that. Rest.

Forget what Mr. Cho says.

Rest as much as you want.

And come back when you feel stronger.

As the queen hyena.

Young Mi. I keep regretting...

living the way I have.

If you quit, I will quit that very day as well,

so it's all on you.

Get back safely.

Okay. Take care of yourself.

Let me know if you need anything.

Since when did the world become so beautiful?

Why isn't SH coming to work?

What happened at the Prosecutors' Office?

Did they torture her psychologically or something?

If SH was put through psychological torture... I'm sure she was.

I bet she was.

And she got out after only two days.

Why are you...

Then why is SH, who went and got out safely,

not answering her phone like she's angry,

and why is the CEO, who rarely came into the office,

working like crazy and constantly annoyed?

I mean, is SH the only person?

Yes, she is.

Who but Ms. Ji would work with hyenas like you?

So? Did SH say she'd come to work?

Of course. She'll be here soon.

Poor you. You were so close.

You were almost chief editor.

You're right. I'm happy. Very.

How did SH get out from custody anyway?

Didn't you know?

It was thanks to the picture that I found.

So? How did she get out?

They have you let you go if you're innocent.

They were stretching it to begin with.

Oh my gosh.

SH is innocent?

Don't make me laugh.

What's wrong with Ms. Ji?

Why did she think of shielding and going to jail for these rats?

What?

What gibberish is that?

Who shielded whom and go where?

For us?

Ms. Ji went into custody for us?

Whatever.

Is Young Mi like a cult follower worshiping SH or something?

She makes it sound like SH hung on the cross for us,

and came back from the dead.

Seriously.

- Goodness. - For us?

Right here. Look at the mouth.

"I'm sure he told you to get me."

"I doubt bringing in..."

"a shutterbug will make Mr. Cha Woo Jin very happy."

And later, this is what she says.

"Couldn't you have been polite like that from the start?"

"Sure. Let's go see him."

"I would love to find out more about..."

"the Deputy Chief Prosecutor, Cha Woo Jin."

What's wrong with Ms. Ji?

Why did she think of shielding...

and going to jail for these rats?

That's right. Ms. Ji went in for Seok Joo.

What are you thinking about?

Nothing.

Anyway, SH is that. You know.

A phoenix.

She won't die. No.

Then are they...

Come in.

- I'm back. - Hey. Have a seat.

How is she?

She looks exhausted.

She seems to have lost her passion for work as well.

What did she say?

Tell me.

She keeps saying she wants to quit.

She doesn't want to quit.

She wants to start another company with Seok Joo.

I think you should see her yourself.

Fine. I'll do that.

You may go.

Yes, sir.

Soo Hyun.

I'm not trying to bother you or anything.

Just text me back and tell me that you're doing fine.

I'm worried.

What is it? The love you're waiting for won't call?

My love?

Whatever.

Don't try to date with that phone.

It'll be humiliating.

Are texts monitored too?

Obviously.

Let them see. I'm just checking on her, that's all.

When it comes to office romances,

it's a secret only in their eyes...

when everyone else knows already.

We're not dating.

But you break into the Prosecutors' Office...

like a madman to save a woman?

If you're not dating, you really are a lunatic.

Sure, Soo Hyun is way too pretty...

to be a newspaper reporter rather than a TV reporter.

That's why she was treated so unfairly.

Sure, now there's the Me Too movement,

but not back then.

You know how people back then had that immature misconception...

that reporters had to be tough, even if they were women.

Not only was Soo Hyun pretty, but she was also persistent too.

Because of that,

this jerk who lost his scoop to Soo Hyun...

told people that he gave her...

the scoop because they were sleeping together.

He was suspended later,

but that didn't help at all.

These insecure men...

said that they slept with her too and lost their scoop to her.

And what was a rumor once became a fact in that circle.

People thought that there had to be something for all the chatter.

In the end, she decided to leave as she couldn't put up with it.

After that, she worked here and there...

at a newspaper agency and a magazine agency.

Wherever she went, men tried to hit on her.

And women despised her.

And that's how she ended up working at Sunday.

But...

this is where she hit the jackpot.

And it was a series of big exclusives.

In other words, she was born to work in places like this.

So don't you confuse her...

unless you're going to take responsibility for her.

My gosh, I'm in no place to take responsibility for someone.

Well, you're not that bad.

You're a decent photographer.

The highlight of this business is the photo.

It doesn't matter how important...

Soo Hyun and Cho Hyung Joon pretend to be,

without photos, they can't do anything.

To compare you to a soccer player, you're like Ronald.

Without Ronald, Manchester or Real Madrid...

have nothing.

Then, what about you? Were you Ronald back in the days?

Me? I was like Pele.

Se Eun.

If you don't sleep and bother the nurses,

they will hate that.

No, they won't.

Don't you know the doctors and nurses love me?

Yes, I know that, but if you keep bothering them,

they won't like it inside.

- Dad. - Yes?

Do you like it?

Like what?

That Mom is going home at night.

What?

Of course, I like it.

But I think you're the one who's excited the most.

Without Mom, you can watch TV at night.

Yes.

Honey, you should scold her.

You shouldn't be smiling with her.

I mean, why would I scold my beautiful daughter?

- Right, Se Eun. - Right!

My beautiful princess. I'm tickling you.

- Hello, Mr. Kim. - Hello.

What are you doing?

I'm glad you're here. Can you help us hang this?

We were getting ready for spring.

I see.

Are you going on patrol to another wing?

No, I'm done here for the night.

That's music to my ears. Help us a lot before you go.

Sure.

- You can hang it there. - Okay.

My gosh.

- This looks great on you. - No, no.

It doesn't belong on my head.

All right. Thank you for your help today. Have some coffee.

Sure.

- Gosh. - It was a lot of work, right?

Thanks.

Thanks to you, we finished quickly.

Don't mention it.

By the way, I don't see Se Eun around today.

Her dad came to visit her. And it's been a while,

so she played with him for long and must be tired now.

She went to sleep as soon as visiting hours were over.

I see.

Speak of the devil.

What's wrong, Se Eun?

Mister.

Yes, yes.

What is it?

Did you have a dream?

My gosh, it's all right.

Are you all right, Se Eun?

She's fine.

Okay.

Se Eun, did you have a dream?

It's all right, Se Eun. Let's go back and sleep.

I will give you some medicine that chases away bad dreams.

Se Eun, should I give you a piggyback ride?

Yes.

All right. On my back.

Here we go.

It's your lucky day, Se Eun.

Some might think that you're her dad.

You totally look like a dad with her on your back.

Okay.

But don't you think they sort of look alike too?

Right? They resemble each other.

Se Eun.

What's my job?

A security guard.

That's right. I'm a security guard.

I'm a guard who keeps you safe.

So...

when you're with me,

you won't be scared of anything, right?

Right.

Which means...

you shouldn't worry about anything...

and sleep tight.

Okay.

Don't worry about a thing.

Mister.

Yes?

Sing me a song, please.

A song? Like a lullaby?

My gosh.

I'm not a good singer.

Okay.

When the mother leaves to the ocean

To gather the oysters

The baby is left all alone

At home

When the ocean sings

A lullaby

The baby puts the head on the arm

and falls asleep

What an incredible view.

Thank you.

My gosh, this coffee is good.

Did you get some rest? Do you feel okay?

Yes.

If you have something to say...

I'm not here to say anything. I'm here to have something to drink.

And to see if you're okay.

We agreed to call it even...

between the Ahn Young Joon's matter and Oh Sang Hoon's staged accident.

That's good.

And Cha Woo Jin will end up helping us.

- "Us"? - Yes, us.

Please keep me out of it.

Ms. Ji.

I didn't send him that photo to betray you. I told you that.

He said he'd release you if I sent it to him.

That's why I sent it.

You can ask him.

You two must have gotten close.

Enough that Cha Woo Jin would make excuses for your actions.

- That's not it. - Fine.

But remember this.

Cha Woo Jin will not be satisfied with...

using that picture you sent him just to safeguard his job.

His objective is all the photos that Sunday possesses.

He will not stop attacking until he has our entire database...

in his hand.

I know. I'm sure.

Anyone with ambition...

would die to have the pictures that we have.

They were all like that, not just him.

Then they realize their place.

Some became clients, and some became servants.

That's how it works. This isn't your first rodeo.

So you should show him his place.

You should shake it off and return to work.

Everything is a mess without you.

At this rate, people may disrespect Sunday.

I know you're saying that to make me feel good,

but the company will be fine without me.

Don't worry.

So? Do you plan to quit or something?

Wouldn't that be nice?

I'll get severance and I have money saved up.

Where should I live once I retire?

- Hawaii? - Dream on.

Do you really think you can hide?

People who want to kill us whenever they get the chance...

are waiting in line for their turn.

The day you were taken by Cha Woo Jin,

it was mayhem at the office.

So we deduced who would have a grudge against you,

and it was impossible to narrow down since there were so many.

To be blunt,

even if our dead bodies are found one day,

it wouldn't be strange at all. That's who we are.

That sounds more like a threat than concern.

The night before Kim Hyung Se died...

That night,

I thought we were on the same team.

But it turned out there was a tiger on the outside.

I can't get out even if I want to.

Because the moment I step out, the tiger will kill me.

Do you understand?

I'm sure it's you, not the tiger.

Yes, that's right.

If you turn your back on me,

you and Seok Joo are dead.
