If you're done blabbing, you must be real thirsty.

Have a drink before you go.

Should I bring this information to the cops now

and ask them to investigate the identity of the Korean-American man

who went missing five years ago?

Give me Jang Tae Ho.

If you do, I'll take this secret with me to my grave.

I'm somewhat dumb...

So I wrote down this fun little tale in case I'd forget it.

I don't know if, when, or where I'll die, so I needed some life insurance.

What will you do, Heung Sam?

Will you give up Jang Tae Ho

or will you part with everything you've built for yourself?

You decide.

[Episode 10]

Oh, it looks like Mr. Jang has arrived.

I was searching high and low for you.

Sit down.

We were about to have a drink.

Jang Tae Ho. What did you do to Sergeant Bae?

It seems like there's been a huge misunderstanding.

Explain it to him in a way he'd understand.

Sergeant Bae's disappearance has nothing to do with me.

What about the duel?

I heard he went to find you because of that.

No, that's not true. He never did.

Why not quit discussing such boorish things and quench your thirsts?

I quit drinking.

So... you're saying you're innocent. Is that right?

How can I get you to believe me?

Prove it. Prove your innocence to me.

What do you mean?

Tomorrow, at 3 p.m.

Come to the rooftop of the to-be demolished building near Yumchung Bridge.

You'll finish with me the duel you started with Sergeant Bae.

You say you quit drinking, but look at you, spouting such nonsense.

There shouldn't be an issue if Jang Tae Ho really is innocent, right?

And he needs to settle the score with Sergeant Bae somehow, anyway.

Isn't that right?

It's against the rules to challenge lower-ranking members to duels.

I'm telling you, it's not my duel.

I'm subbing for Sergeant Bae, since he's missing...

or already dead.

That's what I'm saying.

Let's end this quietly... with just the two of us.

What? You scared?

I'll be there at 3 p.m. tomorrow.

Jang Tae Ho!

- Mantis. - Yes?

God lives up there, you know.

He's not holed up in that damn room.

Read the damn Bible, you ass.

Keep a low profile for the next few days.

I'll take care of Straw Cutter

so don't come back to Seoul Station until this all blows over.

We'll have to settle this if we want to be victorious.

Settle this?

With your skill, you won't stand a chance.

That guy Straw Cutter... He's a monster.

So do you think a monster like him can be stopped by your command?

Because he's come to doubt me...

this matter won't be resolved until one of us is dead.

I'm not doing this because I'm worried about you.

I'm telling you to steer clear because I can't have anything ruining my plans.

If only for your sake...

I'll win that duel for sure.

Tae Ho!

Above all else...

I'll fight for my own sake.

And then

I'll become a reliable successor to you.

Sir, are you not going to do anything about Straw Cutter?

I can't lay a hand on him yet.

I have to find that "insurance" of his... that piece of paper, first.

And we'll have to do some house cleaning within our ranks.

What?

Yo!

Are you going somewhere nice? A date, maybe?

I won't be coming back home tonight.

Oh, so you're even staying out all night?

With who? Madame Seo?

You crazy bastard...

Hey.

I heard that Jang Tae Ho guy was a disciple of yours.

Poison Snake told me that you taught him boxing.

How's his skill?

Why do you want to know that?

No reason... just curious.

Don't you be having any useless thoughts, now.

He's decent, but he's not good enough to beat Sergeant Bae.

Have fun on your date.

Chairman Seo will be bringing important guests

so get two more girls. And you all get ready, too.

- Yes, ma'am. - Yes, ma'am.

- Go get ready. - Yes, ma'am.

Did the errand center call you?

They say that she might be in Busan.

I got the address, too.

I hope they've really found her this time.

Have a safe trip.

Mi Joo.

Whether I find Eun Ji or not...

when I return this time, I'll be leaving Seoul Station.

I can't ask you to come with me.

Because, like you said, you're not a little eighteen-year-old girl anymore.

So what?

I want to ask you to think it over one more time while I'm gone.

Is that too much to ask?

I can't make any promises.

I'm busy with the bar today and tomorrow, so...

I don't need anything as concrete as a promise.

I'm just asking you to give some thought to whether or not you'll leave with me.

Call the wholesaler and confirm what time they'll be delivering the wine.

Chairman Seo and his important guests will give us a hard time otherwise.

Anyway, have a safe trip.

Shouldn't we go to the clinic?

They're just a bunch of scratches... No need for stitches or anything serious.

I'm sorry. This is my fault.

Quit it with that talk.

How is it your fault that there's a crazy bastard on the loose?

Director Jang?

If it's an issue that can be resolved with money...

Use this.

It's good to steer clear of such dangerous folks.

Tae Ho!

Are you out of your goddamn mind?

What are you talking about, all of a sudden?

The rumor's spread all over Seoul Station.

You're going to have a duel with Straw Cutter?

Straw Cutter? I don't even want to think about him!

What? Is this true?

Don't panic.

He's subbing in for Sergeant Bae.

But your opponent isn't Sergeant Bae!

You could die at his hand if you're not careful.

Run away.

It's not too late, so run!

This is my problem. I'll decide whether or not I'll run away.

- Tae Ho... - Director Jang...

What's there to brag about getting old? Why is she having an 80th birthday bash?

Geez... just go and congratulate her!

You know that granny at Namdaemun has been through a lot.

That's why I'm saying this!

That old woman has a life that's ten times harder than mine...

But she's blessed enough to have tons of great-grandchildren

running around on her 80th birthday?

I'll throw you an 80th birthday party too, don't worry!

You think I'm mad about the party?

Compared to that lady who's happy as a clam with her great-grandkids

I feel pathetic.

Are you turning this into a conversation about me getting married?

If you know, then why are you still single? There's nothing wrong with you.

Granny.

You took me in so that you could have someone to nag at, didn't you?

Hey! Look at you, mouthing off...

Granny, I'm going out for a bit!

But where is that guy lately?

Who?

You know, the one who came back from the dead.

Why are you bringing that guy up, all of a sudden?

I'm leaving!

Hey!

It's fine to take care of other people, but take care of yourself first!

[Ms. Na Ra]

Hey... is that you, Praying Mantis?

Did you not get any sleep at all, sir?

I had a bad dream...

that an earthquake destroyed Seoul Station.

When this happens, listening to music would put me back to sleep.

I'll find a replacement for you as soon as possible.

At any rate... Did you find out?

Yes, sir.

It is as you predicted, sir.

Which part should I take care of first?

Leave those bastards to me, and tail Straw Cutter.

If we don't take care of this right away

Jang Tae Ho will be a dead man.

Understood, sir.

What are you doing here, at this hour?

I wanted to grab a bite to eat.

The cook here is more skilled than most restaurants' chefs, after all.

Please wait. I'll put in your order.

Oh yeah.

More people are coming. Prepare enough food for three people.

Yeah?

Really?

Do whatever it takes to get it done. There isn't much time.

When will you tell me where Eun Ji is?

You only ever worry about yourself or Mr. Ryu, don't you?

Do you really even know where she is?

Why?

Do you think I'm toying with you?

It doesn't matter to me.

Because I'll never escape your grasp, anyway.

But Mr. Ryu is different.

He can make a fresh start if he just finds Eun Ji.

Please give him a chance.

I've heard this before.

Before going off to kill President Jung, Mr. Ryu made me a request.

He didn't care what happened to him

but he wanted you, Mi Joo...

to be freed.

Isn't it amusing?

The two people I like the most

are the two people who want to leave me the most.

Come on in!

Did you call us, sir?

We're here, sir.

Have a seat right there.

I wanted to have a meal with you two for the first time in a while.

Sit down.

- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.

Did you find him?

He's not at the office, or anywhere else!

We looked all over Seoul Station, but nobody has seen him.

Maybe he already had the duel and got creamed?

Shut your goddamn mouth, bastard!

No need to yell...

Geez, really...

We have to know where he is if we're going to going to support him somehow...

There's a saying like this in a Buddhist scripture called Sutta Nipata...

Like a lion unafraid of a noise, like the wind not caught in a net

like a lotus not tainted by water

one should be solitary on one's path, a rhino's horn.

No matter what the outcome may be, Director Jang plans to fight alone.

What do you mean, fight?

Who is Tae Ho fighting?

There's this guy named Straw Cutter...

You came back alone?

Did you have a nice date?

What are you doing?

We have to have our duel.

The one we couldn't have five years ago.

What?

If you win, you can be Number Two. And you can have my championship belt.

Oh...

You heard that I was having a duel with Jang Tae Ho, didn't you?

That guy is no match for you.

If you must fight, end it here with me.

Hey...

I want to duel you too, but my first appointment was with Jang Tae Ho.

Hey.

Where's the Straw Cutter from five years ago?

Did he get scared and run off?

You bastard...

Your side isn't even fully healed yet.

Was it the left side?

I understand your affection toward your disciple, but this isn't your fight.

Your opponent is me.

Leave that bastard alone.

Do you think I'm doing all this just to get rid of that bastard?

I need to show Heung Sam that he shouldn't be so greedy anymore.

The trust and loyalty that Seoul Station was built upon...

I want him to remember that again.

That's why I'm messing with him.

That ship has long sailed.

It might have, for you.

But not for me.

Sorry about your side.

There are potential spectators over there

so taking care of the body will be a real pain.

This is the best place, really.

Did you tell Jang Tae Ho to come here?

Yes, sir.

You're hot, right? Have a nice cold drink.

Sir.

I think you've misunderstood.

Yes.

We only heard about Sergeant Bae and Jang Tae Ho's duel through the grapevine.

You mean to insult me...

in my house...

while eating the food I buy for you?

Huh?

A rabid dog appeared...

and you two lit its tail on fire.

So you two will have to be in charge of putting out that fire.

Isn't that right?

Your meat will get cold.

Cut it.

You bastards...

I'm very sorry, sir.

We had no other choice if we wanted to survive.

I'll kill you both!

Mantis, you bastard...

Please leave.

I'll take care of this.

The quick and painless way, or the drawn-out, painful way...

which one will you choose?

It's me.

What are you doing?

If you took care of the matters from the meeting yesterday

you should've reported back to me.

I'm waiting for Straw Cutter.

Straw Cutter...

won't be able to meet you there.

If you'd just get out of my way, you'd make my job a lot easier for me.

Screw you.

This duel is mine.

This was the Chairman's order.

Oh, really?

Then kill me too.

I can't do that.

You're someone that the Chairman needs.

And that's why Sergeant Bae was killed.

What?

Sergeant Bae... was killed by you?

Yes.

Did Heung Sam tell you to do it?

The god you serve may live up above

but the god that I serve lives in a penthouse.

The Chairman will be very displeased.

Shut up and piss off!

Can you stand?

What about the other safes?

I went back and searched them all thoroughly, but that's the only copy.

If you feel uneasy, I will finish what I started, sir.

Do you think you could, in your state?

I'm fine, sir.

Straw Cutter and I are both already dead.

Sir?

After being betrayed by Poison Snake and Crocodile

and finding out that I'm responsible for Sergeant Bae's death...

he'll be suffering from a huge amount of shock, due to his personality.

And to top it off, the one who saved him is Jang Tae Ho.

Though his body is alive, his mind must be in shambles.

By any chance...

did you contact Jang Tae Ho?

I'm the one who told him where you were.

I didn't know that bastard was going to do that, though.

He's the type of guy who remains stubborn to his choices, no matter what.

That guy Jang Tae Ho is the one who can...

ensure the completion of this mission.

Mr. Jong Goo was just here.

I guess I'd better go.

If I see him, he'll just curse me out.

But it's okay to be cursed out by me?

I'm sorry about yesterday.

I remembered later, so I ran over there but you weren't there.

I'm not talking about you standing me up.

You definitely promised me before.

That you wouldn't hurt others, or get yourself hurt.

So what the hell is this?

I'm not hurt anywhere!

And I wasn't the person who fought that guy, either.

How can you look me in the eye and lie to me?

You were planning to fight, or have a duel, or whatever it is!

Ms. Na Ra.

The person who got bloodied and hurt, lying in a cot, could have been you!

I have a lot of things I must do.

And the number of people who hate me for succeeding are only increasing.

I can't just stand still like an idiot when someone tries to hit me!

Is that your way of becoming a villain, like you were saying?

You're going to conquer Seoul Station just by fighting?

That's right!

That's the only way that I can survive.

What do you want me to do, Na Ra?

No, you tell me, Tae Ho.

What should I do?

What can I do so that I can keep seeing you without feeling afraid or uneasy?

There's a famous Cherokee parable.

They say that everyone is born with two wolves fighting within them.

One wolf represents greed, jealousy, and pride

while the other one represents righteousness, sacrifice, and morality.

Those two wolves fight in the person's heart until the person's dying day.

So? Which one wins?

The one that you feed more.

Jong Goo.

Don't talk. Just rest.

Heung Sam...

How the hell did he become like this?

As if I'd know.

What could he possibly be thinking?

I guess he's gone mad.

Even though he tried not to become crazy in this crazy world.

That's why...

I told you not to speak anymore.

I...

will leave Seoul Station.

There's nothing to protect here anymore.

Straw Cutter.

You stay behind.

Stay behind, and do whatever you can.

I'll pray.

For you, and for Heung Sam.

Oh, you're here? Just a moment.

It's different than last year, right? Because I've put on some weight.

These measurements at your age are pretty average, don't worry.

I have an important event.

Yes, no need to worry.

It'll be done by the date I mentioned.

Thank you.

Here, see him out.

- Then... - I'll be going.

- I'll leave it in your capable hands. - Yes.

He's a man who's been a tailor in Myeongdong for over 45 years.

My father used to be a regular of his, too.

Is that right, sir?

No matter what the job is

it must be entrusted to a trustworthy person.

Whether it be suits or fists.

Trust is life.

Look at me.

Up to what point do you think I'll trust you?

I believe that you'll allow me to survive even if I disobey you.

The issue with Straw Cutter was one you should have not intervened with.

It wasn't even a duel. It was a trap.

If Straw Cutter had been disposed of in that way

I'm sure your reputation would have been at risk.

Look at you, trying to maintain my image.

You're really something.

As for the Mi Rae City Restoration project...

All there's left to do is to sign the final draft of the contract.

It would be unfavorable to be hindered by negative occurrences at this point.

No need to keep using me as an excuse.

You put your life on the line for a duel because of your stubbornness.

My stubbornness is a weapon in your arsenal, sir.

Straw Cutter has already left Seoul Station.

He probably won't ever come back.

That's what I figured.

The troublesome issues have now all been taken care of.

So you focus on sealing the deal with the final contract.

I called you here to tell you that.

I'll report good results to you soon, sir.

Mr. Jang Tae Ho.

I heard you're doing well for yourself lately.

Wow... rumors sure do spread quickly. Even you know.

Having face-to-face meetings with the boss whenever you need to discuss things

is a privilege that the other members of the Seoul Seven can't even dream about.

Then, have I ascended to the point that I'm just about at your level?

You're mistaken.

I'm not skilled or ambitious like you.

Really?

Since you were giving Mr. Ryu the cold shoulder like it was nothing...

I thought that we were kindred spirits or something.

I'll drop by for a drink when I have time.

It's a one-way ticket.

With this, Mr. Ryu will leave Seoul Station forever.

[Gangwondo, Hwengsunggun, Hwengsuneup Gadamri, Number 708]

Eun Ji is really living here?

Tell Mr. Ryu to go find out for himself.

I've kept my promise.

No... it was more like a bet than a promise.

Mi Joo.

What I hate the most is suffering a loss from a bet.

You know that, right?

[Colossians]

I...

will leave Seoul Station.

You stay behind.

Stay behind, and do whatever you can.

You stay behind.

Stay behind, and do whatever you can.

Damn it...

All right... All of you, out!

Get out of here!

Leave!

- Keep walking! - Get out!

Who are you?

Ah... our restaurant serves breakfast. Please, come in.

You're Ms. Na Ra, right?

I've heard a lot about you.

Oh! Then, perhaps, are you the woman that Mr. Ryu is seeing?

Er... what did he say?

He talked smack about me, didn't he?

He said that you were an energetic young lady.

Ah, I see...

But... why aren't you going inside?

Didn't you come here to see him?

I thought you'd like to hear my answer, which is why I came.

I won't... leave with you.

Do you have anything else to tell me?

If not, I'll take my leave now.

Wait.

It's your brother-in-law's address.

This time, it's for certain.

If you go here, you'll be able to meet Eun Ji.

How did you find this out?

It's different from the address that the errand center gave me.

Just think of this as my last gift to you.

Mr. Ryu...

I'm staying in Seoul Station.

I'll stay behind, and live alongside the other pathetic people here.

I don't know what I'll be able to do, but I want to give it a shot first.

But first, you have to find Eun Ji...

What am I going to do after I find her, when I can't even take care of myself?

I was just being selfish.

If you let yourself be devoured by it, you will lose your humanity.

Being willing to stab any one of us in the back if we're deemed a hindrance

even though we were as close as brothers for twenty years...

That's greed.

Don't try to face off against the Chairman.

I'm not trying to fight him.

I'm trying to love him.

I'll give you my thanks

when I'm ready to find Eun Ji.

When you're frustrated, alcohol is the best cure-all.

I'm a nurse, so I know these things.

Or... um... is drinking in the morning too much?

Thank you.

Let's drink together when I'm feeling better.

Mr. Ryu is a narrow-minded person.

Most men are like that, you know.

If they become fixed on something, they are ridiculously stubborn, no matter what.

I know a guy who's kind of like that, too.

I've done a lot of bad things to Mr. Ryu.

Where are we going right now?

To go see the ocean...

What?

Is what I'd like to say, but we're going to work.

Se Hoon.

Just wait. We're almost there.

So you're saying that I'm playing the role of the investing CEO of this company?

You're only the CEO on paper.

Kwak Heung Sam is the real investor, but we're just lending him our identities.

And I'm the Executive Director.

It's not the same type of scam as last time.

This time, we're a proper company that has signed contracts and is investing money.

But... if it's as you say, Chairman Kwak doesn't need to hide behind us, does he?

There's no legal problems with it, so why...

It's obvious, isn't it?

He always has a facade and betrays people

so do you think that this will be any different?

Tae Ho, you be careful, too.

Don't get swept up by bad rumors.

What do you mean?

Um... that is...

Aw, geez...

People are saying that the reason why

Straw Cutter ended up that way is due to you and Chairman Kwak planning it.

And you believe that?

Of course we don't!

But it's because you're getting a lot of assistance from Chairman Kwak

that those sorts of ludicrous rumors are floating around.

And you shouldn't just let people borrow your names, willy-nilly.

People have to treasure the names they were given.

My dad...

Do you not want to do it, Chairman?

Well, if it'll be of help to you, I have to do it.

What about you, Hae Jin?

Huh?

I, well...

It's definitely not a problem with me!

Then let's proceed as planned.

You don't have any other qualms, right?

Excuse me.

How did you get here?

They're from Han Joong Group.

Didn't we decide to meet outside?

Aren't you a company that'll become partners with our company?

It's only appropriate for me to come visit you.

It's better than I thought it'd be.

I was afraid it was a fake address.

Even if we'll be affiliated, isn't it proper etiquette to call before...

- Hae Jin. - Yeah?

Please leave.

Tomorrow at 2 p.m. at the Han Joon Group Convention Hall

the Mi Rae City Restoration Project will be officially announced.

And of course, Chairman Yoon and other relevant parties will attend as well.

If you wish to attend, I'll send you an invitation.

You could've just faxed this to me, but the Section Chief came personally.

I don't know what to do with all this thankfulness welling up in me.

I wanted to get to know you better, Chief Jang.

I think your deputy is uncomfortable, though.

One moment.

How about being more composed?

Your boyfriend will notice.

I was wondering what you were being so cocky about...

but this is all you have going for you?

In this kind of place, with those homeless people...

Using a loan shark's money to become involved in the project?

Yep, that's right.

That's my plan.

How pathetic.

It must seem that way, from your narrow point of view.

What?

Making a man like that belong to your perfect self

to get recognition from your father...

and inherit the company.

That's your ultimate motive, isn't it?

What a pity.

If you hadn't failed as you did, you could've had everything you wanted.

Don't overdo it just because of that.

We're past the point of overdoing it because of our past emotions.

Rest assured. Nothing like that will ever happen.

Don't be so fixated on my feelings, and worry about your own man instead.

What do you mean by that?

You don't know anything about your boyfriend, do you?

Why do you think he even brought you all the way here?

Did something happen to upset you?

Jung Min.

Stop the car.

What's the matter?

What is it?

You knew, right?

That Tae Ho and I used to date.

You're doing this while being aware of that, right?

Damn... I can't lie.

But...

he knows, too.

The fact that you and I are dating.

You're not the type to tell your exes about your new boyfriends...

I guess that guy, Jang Tae Ho, is a great liar.

Don't you play with me.

I have no intention to satisfy your curiosity.

Jung Min. That is...

One moment.

It's been a while. Greet him.

He's Section Chief Kang Se Hoon from Han Joong Group.

That's right!

That's the only way that I can survive.

What do you want me to do, Na Ra?

You just have to not fight. Why are you asking that?

Idiot.

- Because there was a difference? - Yeah.

Why are you still sitting here?

I'm trying to run a business here! Leave! Now!

- We're leaving. - We'll leave!

Hurry up and leave!

We're leaving! Sheesh! What's up with the water?

Geez...

What are you doing in front of someone else's business?

What about the underground subway station?

It's the summer.

They told us to go somewhere else because it encourages bad hygiene.

Where can we go?

I'm sure it won't be much different near Myungdong.

We'll have to keep looking. There has to be a place somewhere.

Let's go.

Hey!

What are you doing here?

I was thinking about how I used to practice here back then.

It hasn't even been that long since then...

but it seems like such a while ago.

Did Straw Cutter leave without a hitch? I didn't even get a chance to say goodbye.

I was actually thinking of going to see you.

Give me a minute.

Straw Cutter told me to give this to you.

He says that he's thankful to you.

What is this?

Heung Sam's Achilles' heel.

I don't know the details either.

He said that you should be able to figure it out since you're a smart guy.

He made a mistake.

Even so, I'm Kwak Heung Sam's right-hand man.

I've been entrusted with a big project, and I'm one of his favorites.

So what? Should I applaud you or something?

I learned something from Straw Cutter.

The less I know about Chairman Kwak, the longer I can stay by his side.

I don't really have a reason to betray a boss who takes good care of me.

If you're that curious

you can open this Pandora's Box for yourself.

Tae Ho.

Straw Cutter wasn't the one who killed that man five years ago.

He took the blame for a murder that Heung Sam committed.

Aren't you curious about Heung Sam's true self?

Subtitles by DramaFever

Chairman Han! It's me, Kwak Heung Sam!

That bastard killed our father.

The success or failure of this part of the operation depends on you.

Chairman Kwak had a younger sibling.

Does this person look similar to Kwak Heung Seo, by any chance?

You're done for.

Some of the collection money is missing.

You opened a box that never should have been opened.

I could use this to shoot you, Chairman. Do you trust me?
