(Episode 29)

I'm the corporate lawyer for Sunday Syndicate.

I came here to act as the shareholders' proxy.

And this meeting is considered...

a form of a shareholders' meeting with the board of directors.

Therefore, the shareholders are listening to our conversation now.

We highly appreciate your effort you put into for our company.

That is why I would like to propose an offer to you.

Please become the new owner of this office.

Be the new CEO of Sunday Syndicate.

(Big Issue)

What's the condition?

From the server which is in your possession now,

delete a folder of photos of our choice.

That's our condition.

Isn't that simple?

The condition I'm referring to...

is what you can do for me...

if I were to accept your offer.

I was asking for that condition.

I have already made that clear to you.

You will be the CEO of Sunday Syndicate.

In exchange for photos that could put the world in an uproar,

you will make me a puppet CEO...

of a company that's already in turmoil.

You should do it yourself then.

I'm going to walk out of here with the photos.

Tell me the condition you want.

Money, people,

and...

the entire slush fund that the company has been saving.

Also all of the shares for Sunday Syndicate.

Mr. Han.

Don't you think you're asking for too much?

In exchange,

the alliance between you and me will be kept.

Taking photos if need be.

And releasing a story that will cover up...

your scandal at your requested time.

Am I asking too much for that?

All right. They will accept your condition.

Then, I will assume that we have reached an agreement.

No, we just covered money.

Now, we must talk about the people.

(Group Call: Sunday's Board of Directors)

Release Ms. Ji.

Ms. Ji used White Haired Witch to bring down Sunday Syndicate...

and put the board of directors in danger.

Choose someone else.

In order for me to save this company,

her presence is absolutely required here.

And that's non-negotiable.

That's non-negotiable for us too.

Before they forego with their decision, they have a question.

Do you love Ms. Ji Soo Hyun?

The conditions are...

that I must delete a folder of your choice...

and...

I need to get Ms. Ji back.

That doesn't answer the question asked.

What I feel toward Ms. Ji...

is hatred.

The board has agreed to all the terms.

You are our new CEO.

(Courthouse)

How do you feel...

about forfeiting the appeal?

I thank the court...

for giving me a sentence that was very generous for what I've done.

I will always reflect on what I do going forward.

Did you apologize...

to the media agency and photographer who were hurt by your lies?

I'd like to use this opportunity to apologize sincerely...

to Nara News and the photographer who investigated me...

and suffered.

I'm sorry.

Only a handful of people know about the memo from Dr. Kim.

And you are the only one...

who thinks the dates on the memo were the dates of my injection.

The only people who knew about the memo...

other than Chae Rin were Mr. Cho and me.

But she didn't say "Mr. Cho,"

but "people" who know about it.

There's someone else.

Chae Rin knows that and is afraid.

And the photographer who investigated me and suffered.

I'm sorry.

- Hello. - Hello.

(Kids Kindergarten)

- Thank you. - Mommy.

My daughter.

Did you feel sick or tired or anything?

No, not at all.

Let's go.

You know, I played outside with Ye Jin, and...

Can't you meet with Se Eun proudly now?

You should say you're the one who saved her.

If possible, I'd like to meet him in person and apologize.

- I'm sorry. - That's all?

An apology doesn't cut it. She ruined his life.

What's your plan going forward?

Tell him to request a new trial and sue for damages.

I'm going to reflect on my actions...

and focus on doing volunteer work for the time being.

I sincerely apologize to the public as well.

Come in.

Come in.

(Nara News)

So,

the photographer who took Chae Rin's picture and suffered...

was one of ours, right?

Yes, that's correct.

We've made a big mistake.

What do we do?

Must we make an official apology?

No, sir.

We were also framed for releasing incorrect news...

and had to give a public apology. We were victims as well.

Although it was a shame,

you do not need to go that far.

I'm sure it won't happen,

but if he asks to return to work here,

you can consider it then.

You have a point.

He must have been suffering a lot all this time, though.

I heard he even got divorced because of that.

Yes.

However,

I hear he's doing well now.

He is?

That's a relief.

The problem is he's doing too well.

Thank you for helping our reporters last night as well.

That was nothing.

But call me sooner next time.

Don't make me call a Chief of Police like that.

Okay, I will.

Goodness.

Hello, sir.

Mr. Kang?

I asked him to come.

You two seem to have issues you still need to resolve.

Issues?

Gosh.

He's a frightening man who points a gun at you if he's cornered.

How could I dare "have issues" with him?

I heard they got a great sea bass today,

so I ordered it.

Anyway, why did you ask us here today?

I'm a busy man, you know.

To thank you.

I was able to get this far thanks to you.

Thanks to us?

That's right.

If not for the two of you, how could I push out Mr. Cho...

and take over this position?

Is that how it worked out?

You're right.

It is thanks to us.

What's this?

That?

The fish was big, so I gave you some of the fish bones.

I'm sure your wife will like it a lot.

Really?

Fish bones you say?

My gosh. This is pretty big.

My wife will love it.

Please continue to help Sunday.

Sure, will do.

But please don't take photographs of us, okay?

You're so funny.

It's Mr. Seo Dong Won.

Hey. Report in.

Yes, sir. He just went in.

I texted you the address.

Yes.

I'll see you soon.

Yes, sir. Yes.

"Yes, sir."

"Yes. Yes. Yes, sir."

When did I do that?

Mr. Seo Dong Won. You just said that.

You're so conniving.

What about it? He's our CEO. I should show respect.

How else should I address him?

Give me a break. You used to call him "Trash"...

and chewed him out in the past.

Trash?

He wasn't trash.

He was framed by Oh Chae Rin.

You heard that.

- Our CEO is a great man. - Great...

Hey. He was much less like trash...

when we thought he was trash.

To be honest, the way he's been acting lately...

blows Mr. Cho out of the water.

Late bloomers are always more intense.

Anyway, you must not like him.

I love him so much.

We get paid much more per picture.

Well... I like it.

I love Trash.

If you don't have the money, you should use your body...

to pay back our precious money.

What? Don't you know who I am?

Don't you?

This is an illegal debt-collection.

If you keep annoying me and calling me over...

instead of waiting patiently,

I may just make you regret it.

I'm shaking in my boots.

Can the chief editor of Nara News...

borrow other people's money and gamble it away,

then intimidate an honest businessman...

in the finance industry?

I waited this long because I'm nice.

Don't do this if you meet really scary people.

You'll be in trouble.

So?

What's that?

Let's go.

My gosh.

I don't think he's here to play around.

I think he means business. You know?

- Who are you people? - Your payment was very late.

I decided to hand over the bonds to them.

They are from a professional debt collection agency.

I told you earlier. They are very scary.

Who... Who said you could do that?

I did.

Here you go.

My gosh.

All right.

Thank you.

Good luck.

Hey. What are you doing right now?

Gosh, you're not scared yet.

Let's get you a massage first.

Go ahead.

Hey.

(Borrow More Private Loan)

I'll pay it back.

- Here we go. - Get him.

- You'd better pay up. - No!

(Lowest Interest Rate)

I will pay back the money.

All right.

The principal, interest,

and the travel expenses for coming here...

Your principal is 400,000 dollars from now on, okay?

Yes, sir.

(Bond of Debt)

Make it official with your thumb.

(Bond of Debt)

How pretty.

Sir.

The man sitting in front of you is your creditor.

He will decide whether you live or die, okay?

Okay. I got it.

Seok Joo.

Han Seok Joo?

Oh, my.

Fancy running into you here.

Seok Joo, please save me. Please?

I'm begging you, Seok Joo. Please?

Lead a diligent life.

Let's go.

(Express Private Loan)

Seok Joo.

Thank you.

I... I deserve to die.

- Somehow, I ended up gambling. - No.

That's not what I want to hear.

Tell me something that will interest me.

What?

That day...

- The day I saw your photos. - What masterpieces.

The clinic has a VVIP patient.

Do you have a list of his clients?

But I can't show it to you yet.

When Gyung Shik refused to show me Dr. Kim's client list,

I went...

to Mr. Na just in case.

I came here...

because I thought I should run it by you first.

Where? Chaeum Clinic?

Think about it. Why would I go to a place like that?

Don't worry about a thing and run the story.

Okay. I will.

I'm telling you the truth.

I only told one person about our story.

Mr. Na. That's it.

Na Seok Hoon, CEO of Nara News.

Does this mean...

I have one more suspect on my list?

No, that's not it.

Mr. Na said to run the story without hesitation.

It's the truth.

My gosh, I'm about to die.

Stop complaining, Ms. Chief Editor.

Did you finish the articles this morning?

Hey, this isn't the chief editor position I wanted.

I wanted to be a chief editor position SH had.

Who said I wanted to actually edit articles?

Hye Jung. No. Director of Investigative Journalism.

Do you want to trade places with me?

Or what about just alternating our positions?

No, I don't want to. I like being in the field.

Right. Ask the Situation Room Director right here.

Do you want to switch with me?

Forget it.

I hate that dark situation room even more.

Well, if you hate it that much, get another job.

What?

Do you think I'm crazy?

Do you know how much stocks I received?

You want me to give all of them up?

You know what? Things were better when SH was in charge.

Then what about that journalist named Gyung Shik?

Actually, it turned out that...

he started to investigate Dr. Kim...

because of a personal grudge he held against him.

Which means...

Gyung Shik would never tip off Dr. Kim.

Did you investigate everyone?

Yes.

Are you really going to investigate the CEO of Nara News then?

I should.

But I'm sure that will be pointless.

Even if it is true that the CEO of Nara News...

did tip off Dr. Kim,

what will you do next?

You're going up against the owner of...

one of the most influential papers in all of Korea.

Do you think someone like him...

would apologize to you just like that?

Say that it works out,

and you find his weakness and get an apology out of him.

What's the point?

Everything is water under the bridge.

Damages have already been done.

I will...

think about that after I find what I'm looking for.

My goodness.

Anyway, when will you bring back Soo Hyun?

She'll come when she's ready.

Okay. Don't lose Oh Chae Rin.

If she speaks, we're all dead.

Only a handful of people know about the memo from Dr. Kim.

And you are the only one...

who thinks the dates on the memo were the dates of my injection.

Chief editor? Myung Ja?

She hates reading even subtitles in a movie.

She must be miserable.

Probably.

What about you?

I'm the Director of Investigative Journalism.

And Young Mi oversees the situation room?

He did an okay job with assigning you the roles.

Aren't you curious about Mr. Han?

What's he up to?

He's digging into the CEO of Nara News.

Nara News?

Thanks to Chae Rin, he was able to restore his reputation.

Come on, it was thanks to you.

You got the White Haired Witch involved on purpose,

got Chae Rin arrested,

and helped restore Mr. Han's reputation.

Was the CEO of Nara News suspected of communicating with Kim Hyung Se?

It seems like it.

He's trying to take a photo of the CEO's dirty side...

to get him to confess to what he did.

If you're that concerned about him, you should come back to work.

"Concerned"?

I'm not concerned at all.

I thought you and Mr. Han had feelings for each other.

Did you come to test me?

There's nothing between us. You can have Seok Joo.

Come on. Don't be like that.

I know I fall in love easily, but I don't like leftovers.

Why would I want someone you dumped?

My gosh.

Your heart is beating so strong and well.

Thank you.

It looks good.

If her body continues not to reject the transplant,

she can live a normal life.

Thank you, doctor. Thank you.

Someone would like to meet you for a moment...

before you take her to the examination room.

Me?

He's the CEO of Nara News, Mr. Na Seok Hoon.

What? Oh my gosh. Hello.

- Say hello. - Hello.

Hi.

- You should say bye. - Have a nice day.

- Bye. - Have a nice day.

You too.

Thank you.

Se Eun.

I'm so happy. Isn't that great?

I'm so happy.

I saw Oh Chae Rin's interview.

And I heard from the doctor...

that you were the one who was paying for Se Eun's treatments.

I'm sorry.

I didn't know anything,

and I had been too harsh on you all this time.

It's all in the past.

Anyway,

I thought I saw the CEO of Nara News earlier.

What did he say?

He said he wanted to apologize.

I told him he shouldn't apologize to me,

but he said he was very sorry about what happened...

to our family and apologized.

And...

And?

He said he'd hire me if I want.

He offered me a job at Nara News...

as a person with experience.

I see.

Will it make you uncomfortable...

if I work at Nara News?

Why would it?

I'd be grateful.

Congrats.

I'll go now.

Do you want to see Se Eun?

She'll be done with her examination soon.

Did you tell her that I'm her dad?

No. I think you can tell her yourself.

She misses the security guard a lot.

No, later.

I'm not...

confident yet.

It's always the same.

He sits there every night...

and drinks alone as if he's waiting for someone.

Have a seat.

I just couldn't face you,

so I've been waiting for you to come.

Thanks.

Here.

That's right, you quit.
