(All people, organizations,
locations, and incidents...)

(Cakebean)

00:00:13,866 --> 00:00:17,706
(Cafe Bakery Franchise
Cakebean Sale Proposal)
5
00:00:21,005 --> 00:00:22,106
Well...
6
00:00:23,276 --> 00:00:25,575
For selling a franchise,
7
00:00:25,916 --> 00:00:29,345
there would've been many other
accounting firms for the job. Why...
8
00:00:29,346 --> 00:00:30,886
I wanted to take care of it quickly.
9
00:00:31,486 --> 00:00:35,125
An object that no longer has any use
is only trash if you hold onto it.
10
00:00:35,126 --> 00:00:37,355
(Cafe Bakery Franchise
Cakebean Sale Proposal)
11
00:00:37,356 --> 00:00:38,725
Taeil Accounting seems to be...
12
00:00:39,795 --> 00:00:42,196
the best at dealing with
this kind of matter.
13
00:00:44,996 --> 00:00:46,895
If you can sell it sooner
than my expectations,
14
00:00:48,106 --> 00:00:49,505
I'll pay you double your fees.
15
00:00:58,416 --> 00:00:59,946
I want to sell it quickly,
16
00:01:01,446 --> 00:01:03,386
and you want to make money quickly.
17
00:01:05,455 --> 00:01:06,715
Is that so?
18
00:01:10,825 --> 00:01:13,125
I mean, no one in this
room will face losses.
19
00:01:20,295 --> 00:01:24,336
(Taeil Accounting)
20
00:02:04,976 --> 00:02:06,216
Yes, it's me.
21
00:02:07,316 --> 00:02:08,446
Han Je Kyun.
22
00:02:09,846 --> 00:02:11,485
(Episode 6)
23
00:02:19,955 --> 00:02:21,764
There is something I
must let you all know...
24
00:02:21,765 --> 00:02:23,566
before the Cakebean Sale presentation.
25
00:02:23,666 --> 00:02:25,586
Will you take a look at
the material I gave you?
26
00:02:34,275 --> 00:02:36,906
Can a patient with a cardiovascular
disease drink coffee?
27
00:02:37,716 --> 00:02:38,976
You're acting so rashly.
28
00:02:40,075 --> 00:02:41,615
How rude of you.
29
00:02:42,545 --> 00:02:44,514
You sure don't have any manners whatsoever.
30
00:02:44,515 --> 00:02:46,285
You've gotten even more handsome
since the last time we met.
31
00:02:46,286 --> 00:02:49,656
And Ms. An, you've gotten
braver since we last met.
32
00:02:50,156 --> 00:02:51,196
What happened?
33
00:02:51,495 --> 00:02:52,924
You started a fight with VP Han Je Kyun,
34
00:02:52,925 --> 00:02:54,405
a guy you don't even like to talk to.
35
00:02:54,566 --> 00:02:55,795
He made me angry...
36
00:02:56,226 --> 00:02:58,335
with how he treated my precious kids.
37
00:02:58,566 --> 00:03:00,636
I'm envious of the audit department.
38
00:03:01,036 --> 00:03:02,705
Should I transfer teams too?
39
00:03:02,765 --> 00:03:05,735
VP Han started this fight, not me.
40
00:03:07,805 --> 00:03:09,875
You must see through what
you see on the outside...
41
00:03:09,876 --> 00:03:13,674
and into the hidden cause
of someone's actions.
42
00:03:13,675 --> 00:03:16,144
That's how you see someone's true
nature and the bigger picture.
43
00:03:16,145 --> 00:03:18,892
Didn't I tell you this over and over
ever since you were a new staff?
44
00:03:18,916 --> 00:03:20,816
Seriously. Gosh.
45
00:03:21,585 --> 00:03:25,156
No, I think the advisory department
is the best place for me.
46
00:03:28,226 --> 00:03:29,495
I'm just kidding.
47
00:03:34,136 --> 00:03:37,066
Since you mention the advisory department,
48
00:03:39,575 --> 00:03:41,975
there seems to be an interesting
guy among the new recruits.
49
00:03:44,275 --> 00:03:46,075
Did you meet with Jang
Ho Woo, by any chance?
50
00:03:49,045 --> 00:03:51,565
You must've been surprised that
I asked to see you so suddenly.
51
00:03:53,555 --> 00:03:55,235
I'm An Seung Yeon of the audit department.
52
00:03:56,085 --> 00:03:57,596
- Let's have a seat.
- Yes, ma'am.
53
00:04:05,136 --> 00:04:06,635
(Audit Leader, An Seung Yeon)
54
00:04:06,836 --> 00:04:09,035
From what I hear, the guy
who told Mr. Kang Hyun...
55
00:04:09,036 --> 00:04:11,505
to reject People's
Entertainment's opinion...
56
00:04:11,706 --> 00:04:13,476
and leave the company...
57
00:04:14,346 --> 00:04:15,846
was you, Mr. Jang.
58
00:04:16,945 --> 00:04:19,244
Well, I...
59
00:04:19,245 --> 00:04:21,515
There must've been a good reason.
60
00:04:21,516 --> 00:04:23,586
I'm sure you spoke the truth too.
61
00:04:23,646 --> 00:04:24,755
But...
62
00:04:25,586 --> 00:04:27,185
I just can't forgive you, that's all.
63
00:04:29,425 --> 00:04:30,994
I want you, Mr. Jang,
64
00:04:30,995 --> 00:04:33,255
to leave Taeil Accounting.
65
00:04:54,985 --> 00:04:56,945
(Sang Won and Sin Hye)
66
00:05:02,026 --> 00:05:06,125
(Director Han Seung Jo)
67
00:05:08,365 --> 00:05:09,826
Don't be mistaken.
68
00:05:09,925 --> 00:05:11,694
It's not because I like you.
69
00:05:11,695 --> 00:05:13,396
I'm only promoting you...
70
00:05:13,995 --> 00:05:15,865
to get rid of any trouble.
71
00:05:17,675 --> 00:05:20,004
I won't make an issue of the
fact that you moved the banks...
72
00:05:20,005 --> 00:05:23,076
by using their expensive
sales of bad loans.
73
00:05:23,375 --> 00:05:25,576
But how could a mere senior manager...
74
00:05:26,115 --> 00:05:28,045
make a director look like an idiot?
75
00:05:29,445 --> 00:05:31,085
If the other accountants
were to find out...
76
00:05:31,086 --> 00:05:33,114
You speak as if Taeil Accounting...
77
00:05:33,115 --> 00:05:35,155
will come tumbling down
because of one guy like me.
78
00:05:36,985 --> 00:05:39,295
I'm sure it's better for you...
79
00:05:41,096 --> 00:05:42,625
to be promoted and chewed out.
80
00:05:51,606 --> 00:05:53,005
I didn't tell you to come in.
81
00:05:53,935 --> 00:05:57,575
Gosh, this sure is an accounting
firm that likes money.
82
00:05:57,576 --> 00:05:59,736
The guy who makes them lots
of money is the king here.
83
00:06:00,576 --> 00:06:02,345
Because of selling bad
loans at a high price,
84
00:06:02,346 --> 00:06:04,786
they give you a promotion
and even an office like this.
85
00:06:05,286 --> 00:06:06,984
A bluff is a legit move you can use too.
86
00:06:06,985 --> 00:06:09,266
Whether you can read it or
not is up to the other person.
87
00:06:09,625 --> 00:06:12,072
They say a spot for a desk in this
building costs 200,000 dollars.
88
00:06:12,096 --> 00:06:14,995
Gosh, but for a desk this
size, how much would it be?
89
00:06:15,466 --> 00:06:18,235
Will you quit being a CPA and
become a licensed realtor instead?
90
00:06:18,295 --> 00:06:20,695
Why didn't you come to
the sales deal meeting?
91
00:06:21,036 --> 00:06:22,064
I'm not interested.
92
00:06:22,065 --> 00:06:24,435
Even if the person who
requested to sell is Ji Soo?
93
00:06:24,805 --> 00:06:26,076
Are you still not interested?
94
00:06:52,565 --> 00:06:53,735
About Cakebean...
95
00:06:54,966 --> 00:06:57,036
Take it somewhere other
than Taeil Accounting.
96
00:06:58,505 --> 00:07:01,065
You know nothing good comes out
of getting mixed up with VP Han.
97
00:07:01,346 --> 00:07:03,805
I wish you would stop
caring about my business.
98
00:07:05,115 --> 00:07:06,215
Ji Soo, I mean...
99
00:07:06,216 --> 00:07:07,985
I told you. I'm not the same Jang Ji Soo.
100
00:07:09,445 --> 00:07:12,086
You can wait and see if something
good comes out of it or not.
101
00:07:29,206 --> 00:07:30,266
Hey, Sung Min.
102
00:07:31,375 --> 00:07:32,776
I'll take the Cakebean case.
103
00:07:39,875 --> 00:07:42,115
I thought I was being
careful, but he ended up here.
104
00:07:43,815 --> 00:07:45,115
He really did.
105
00:07:50,685 --> 00:07:51,856
Mr. Yang.
106
00:07:57,966 --> 00:08:00,565
I'm Han Seung Jo, the PM
of the Cakebean sales deal.
107
00:08:00,766 --> 00:08:01,805
Let's start the meeting.
108
00:08:13,076 --> 00:08:15,756
It's a sales deal, but you're being
so thorough with due diligence.
109
00:08:16,416 --> 00:08:19,216
An accounting firm's inspection
becomes this deal's premise.
110
00:08:19,356 --> 00:08:22,185
Why do you think people say
that we sell trust, not reports?
111
00:08:22,586 --> 00:08:24,495
It didn't seem like we sold trust either.
112
00:08:24,995 --> 00:08:26,025
What?
113
00:08:26,196 --> 00:08:27,396
You know what I mean. Why ask?
114
00:08:28,726 --> 00:08:29,826
You should watch...
115
00:08:36,836 --> 00:08:39,806
I thought you weren't interested.
Why the sudden change of heart?
116
00:08:40,875 --> 00:08:41,976
Because of Ji Soo?
117
00:08:44,446 --> 00:08:47,745
We don't have enough information
on HK Private Equity.
118
00:08:48,046 --> 00:08:49,245
It's usually not this bad.
119
00:08:49,946 --> 00:08:53,385
Maybe there's a reason why
it has to be so secretive.
120
00:08:56,186 --> 00:08:58,155
Why did Ji Soo have to...
121
00:08:58,796 --> 00:09:00,525
She must have her reasons too.
122
00:09:01,995 --> 00:09:03,235
Do you know something about it?
123
00:09:04,466 --> 00:09:05,696
I'll find out,
124
00:09:06,665 --> 00:09:10,005
starting with who these
rich and shy people are.
125
00:09:10,905 --> 00:09:13,306
We have to keep Ji Soo from
getting hurt no matter what.
126
00:09:19,115 --> 00:09:21,586
If they sent money to a private equity,
127
00:09:21,745 --> 00:09:23,446
are they limited partners?
128
00:09:24,856 --> 00:09:25,915
Limited partners?
129
00:09:25,985 --> 00:09:27,255
I mean the money holder.
130
00:09:27,415 --> 00:09:29,785
It could be an individual
or an organization.
131
00:09:31,796 --> 00:09:34,125
It might not be a person?
132
00:09:34,326 --> 00:09:36,426
And if it is a person, it
might be a group of them.
133
00:09:37,326 --> 00:09:40,087
But why are you asking about LPs of
a private equity out of the blue?
134
00:09:40,495 --> 00:09:42,836
I was wondering who the LPs
of HK Private Equity were.
135
00:09:44,405 --> 00:09:46,676
There are so many things
I can't figure out...
136
00:09:47,005 --> 00:09:48,576
with my skills alone.
137
00:09:51,145 --> 00:09:54,176
Realistically, it'll be hard to
find who the money holder is.
138
00:09:54,515 --> 00:09:57,446
A private equity is meant to
keep things from being exposed.
139
00:09:58,586 --> 00:10:00,915
You might have a chance if
you go in through a pathway,
140
00:10:01,456 --> 00:10:03,586
like this passage between buildings.
141
00:10:19,875 --> 00:10:21,275
(Cash holdings)
142
00:10:21,375 --> 00:10:23,446
If you take a look here...
143
00:10:43,125 --> 00:10:44,466
Ms. Baek?
144
00:10:45,196 --> 00:10:46,466
I wonder what's going on.
145
00:10:56,645 --> 00:10:57,976
This afternoon...
146
00:10:58,976 --> 00:11:01,296
(Statement of Financial Position,
as of December 31, 2022)
147
00:11:02,745 --> 00:11:05,085
Do I have to teach you to speak now?
What about this afternoon?
148
00:11:05,086 --> 00:11:07,114
The problem you spotted...
149
00:11:07,115 --> 00:11:09,435
in Cakebean's financial
statements earlier this afternoon.
150
00:11:10,556 --> 00:11:11,895
No matter how much I look at it,
151
00:11:12,956 --> 00:11:14,664
the classification of accounts seems fine.
152
00:11:14,665 --> 00:11:16,665
The numbers seem to be
calculated appropriately.
153
00:11:16,826 --> 00:11:18,436
Their profitability is pretty good too.
154
00:11:18,696 --> 00:11:20,966
If it seems fine to you, it must be fine.
155
00:11:20,995 --> 00:11:22,706
You're an expert, just like me.
156
00:11:23,665 --> 00:11:25,682
This is my 1st year, and it's your 10th.
How can we be the same?
157
00:11:25,706 --> 00:11:26,836
Wait a second.
158
00:11:27,405 --> 00:11:29,245
Mr. Han!
159
00:11:46,056 --> 00:11:48,096
There's an issue that still
has to be reported on.
160
00:11:48,625 --> 00:11:50,065
Jin Tae Soo...
161
00:11:50,066 --> 00:11:51,836
has embarrassed himself once again.
162
00:11:52,196 --> 00:11:54,096
I didn't embarrass myself.
I gained experience.
163
00:11:56,566 --> 00:11:57,665
Also, you rascal.
164
00:11:58,375 --> 00:12:00,055
I'm your dad. How can you call me Tae Soo?
165
00:12:01,706 --> 00:12:03,306
I heard the workout went down the drain.
166
00:12:06,316 --> 00:12:09,115
In the future, all of that will...
167
00:12:18,596 --> 00:12:19,755
Dad.
168
00:12:19,926 --> 00:12:23,365
I've never been more glad that
I chose to become an accountant.
169
00:12:23,426 --> 00:12:24,995
Oh, my. What's going on?
170
00:12:25,836 --> 00:12:28,034
"I don't have time to see friends."
171
00:12:28,035 --> 00:12:29,904
"I don't have time to sleep."
172
00:12:29,905 --> 00:12:32,176
"I want to live like a human."
173
00:12:32,976 --> 00:12:34,706
You were always whining.
174
00:12:35,505 --> 00:12:37,846
But lately, I want to work very hard.
175
00:12:39,145 --> 00:12:40,316
Could I be...
176
00:12:40,846 --> 00:12:42,216
growing up?
177
00:12:42,446 --> 00:12:44,385
Gosh. You could be.
178
00:12:46,015 --> 00:12:47,716
Since you've grown up...
179
00:12:49,155 --> 00:12:51,085
The senior judge wants to meet with you...
180
00:12:51,086 --> 00:12:53,154
once Jin Seok's trial is over.
181
00:12:53,155 --> 00:12:54,895
Dad.
182
00:12:54,995 --> 00:12:58,196
It's a single judge right now,
183
00:12:58,296 --> 00:13:00,795
but to do something big in the future...
184
00:13:00,796 --> 00:13:03,036
We don't have to go through
all of that trouble anymore.
185
00:13:04,106 --> 00:13:06,375
These days, I enjoy...
186
00:13:06,676 --> 00:13:09,405
going to work every day.
187
00:13:17,145 --> 00:13:19,356
(Handle with care)
188
00:13:20,056 --> 00:13:22,385
(Cakebean)
189
00:13:25,796 --> 00:13:27,926
(Receiving Freezer)
190
00:13:31,196 --> 00:13:32,295
(Inventory Check Status)
191
00:13:32,296 --> 00:13:33,466
What?
192
00:13:49,785 --> 00:13:51,655
Please show me the samples I've checked.
193
00:13:58,596 --> 00:13:59,826
I'm back.
194
00:14:01,096 --> 00:14:02,665
The inventory check was tough, right?
195
00:14:02,765 --> 00:14:04,426
Wasn't it really cold in the freezer?
196
00:14:10,265 --> 00:14:11,436
Oh, dear.
197
00:14:17,476 --> 00:14:18,716
I'll head out.
198
00:14:29,826 --> 00:14:31,426
Oh, gosh.
199
00:14:39,066 --> 00:14:40,765
- Eat more.
- Thanks.
200
00:14:45,076 --> 00:14:46,405
Be quiet for a second.
201
00:14:50,806 --> 00:14:52,046
Hello?
202
00:14:52,275 --> 00:14:53,415
Yes.
203
00:14:55,046 --> 00:14:58,014
I didn't know I left that there.
Tomorrow, I'll...
204
00:14:58,015 --> 00:14:59,985
I'm passing by your house.
205
00:15:00,186 --> 00:15:01,515
Where are you now?
206
00:15:02,426 --> 00:15:03,556
What?
207
00:15:05,356 --> 00:15:06,655
Goodness.
208
00:15:06,696 --> 00:15:08,196
You fool.
209
00:15:08,765 --> 00:15:10,895
Do you know what happened to me today?
210
00:15:11,165 --> 00:15:13,836
I was in this ridiculous cold storage...
211
00:15:15,836 --> 00:15:17,005
What?
212
00:15:30,645 --> 00:15:34,255
You should've told me that
your senior was a woman.
213
00:15:37,755 --> 00:15:38,956
Welcome.
214
00:15:43,466 --> 00:15:45,765
- Here you go.
- Thank you.
215
00:15:53,476 --> 00:15:54,875
Please take good care...
216
00:15:55,505 --> 00:15:56,846
of our Ho Woo.
217
00:16:00,645 --> 00:16:02,285
Mr. Jang does well...
218
00:16:02,316 --> 00:16:03,715
on his own.
219
00:16:03,716 --> 00:16:05,514
Sure. Is he in this state
because he does so well...
220
00:16:05,515 --> 00:16:06,716
Hey.
221
00:16:12,796 --> 00:16:13,956
Well...
222
00:16:14,125 --> 00:16:17,495
Accountants don't usually wear
suits for inventory checks.
223
00:16:18,395 --> 00:16:21,466
Even in the summer, a padded
jacket is a must for freezers.
224
00:16:22,206 --> 00:16:24,605
Mr. Yang didn't tell you that?
225
00:16:24,606 --> 00:16:26,436
I guess he didn't want to tell me.
226
00:16:26,875 --> 00:16:28,875
You know he doesn't like me.
227
00:16:29,745 --> 00:16:31,245
The thing at the last meeting...
228
00:16:31,546 --> 00:16:33,316
was probably because of Ms. Son.
229
00:16:36,086 --> 00:16:37,546
Ms. Son Hye Won?
230
00:16:50,826 --> 00:16:52,196
Didn't you see the cup?
231
00:16:52,296 --> 00:16:54,066
Who put the cup in such a bad place?
232
00:16:54,135 --> 00:16:55,704
Are you saying what you did was good?
233
00:16:55,705 --> 00:16:57,742
If you had put it in a better
place, it wouldn't have broken.
234
00:16:57,766 --> 00:16:59,106
It's my fault again?
235
00:17:00,836 --> 00:17:01,945
They're married?
236
00:17:03,246 --> 00:17:05,792
They started dating in college,
and they entered Taeil together.
237
00:17:05,816 --> 00:17:06,945
Triple crown.
238
00:17:08,486 --> 00:17:10,145
If they entered Taeil together...
239
00:17:11,246 --> 00:17:14,115
Ms. Son's promotion was delayed
because of maternity leave.
240
00:17:14,715 --> 00:17:17,356
Taking on this sales deal would
improve performance evaluations.
241
00:17:17,486 --> 00:17:19,296
That's why she was so obsessed with it.
242
00:17:20,256 --> 00:17:23,425
Mr. Yang knew that. That's
why he acted like that.
243
00:17:25,496 --> 00:17:28,096
I'm sure there is something...
244
00:17:28,736 --> 00:17:30,606
that no one other than those two know.
245
00:17:31,336 --> 00:17:32,536
Cheers.
246
00:17:33,135 --> 00:17:34,475
Oh, right.
247
00:17:38,875 --> 00:17:40,076
I could be wrong.
248
00:17:45,016 --> 00:17:47,115
Anyway, nice to meet you.
249
00:17:48,086 --> 00:17:49,586
- Cheers.
- Cheers.
250
00:17:49,986 --> 00:17:51,185
Okay. I'll drink too, then.
251
00:18:06,836 --> 00:18:08,645
I have something else to give you.
252
00:18:22,455 --> 00:18:23,826
Speaking of which,
253
00:18:24,056 --> 00:18:26,456
can you help me with something
without asking any questions?
254
00:18:27,496 --> 00:18:29,165
You know HK Private Equity, right?
255
00:18:29,725 --> 00:18:32,236
You know every rich person.
256
00:18:32,596 --> 00:18:33,766
What about them?
257
00:18:34,695 --> 00:18:37,165
Can you look into who
their Limited Partner is?
258
00:18:41,475 --> 00:18:42,644
Is this a request?
259
00:18:42,645 --> 00:18:43,975
It's a favor.
260
00:18:44,046 --> 00:18:45,246
What are you trying to do?
261
00:18:47,175 --> 00:18:48,445
I'm trying to date someone.
262
00:18:49,586 --> 00:18:50,746
Date?
263
00:18:54,986 --> 00:18:57,955
I got this information...
264
00:18:58,695 --> 00:19:00,996
by mixing a favor...
265
00:19:01,096 --> 00:19:02,394
and a request...
266
00:19:02,395 --> 00:19:03,495
for the first time...
267
00:19:03,496 --> 00:19:04,596
in my life.
268
00:19:06,695 --> 00:19:08,635
(Lee Chan Ju)
269
00:19:09,506 --> 00:19:10,836
Lee Chan Ju?
270
00:19:12,905 --> 00:19:15,276
Sang Ah Group Chairman Lee Chan Ju...
271
00:19:15,506 --> 00:19:18,546
is one of the LPs of HK Private Equity.
272
00:19:20,645 --> 00:19:23,246
You were curious about it before.
273
00:19:26,685 --> 00:19:27,885
Are you sure?
274
00:19:28,016 --> 00:19:29,286
How did you find out?
275
00:19:31,955 --> 00:19:33,225
You're grateful, right?
276
00:19:57,016 --> 00:20:00,256
Gosh. What an irresponsible person.
277
00:20:05,195 --> 00:20:06,425
Hey.
278
00:20:07,356 --> 00:20:09,096
Why are you staring at her like that?
279
00:20:11,266 --> 00:20:13,665
What? Staring? What?
280
00:20:16,236 --> 00:20:17,905
You look jealous.
281
00:20:20,935 --> 00:20:22,346
I am jealous.
282
00:20:23,746 --> 00:20:25,075
I'm also fascinated.
283
00:20:25,076 --> 00:20:26,516
About what?
284
00:20:27,316 --> 00:20:30,115
Getting so irresponsibly drunk
when she just met you two.
285
00:20:30,786 --> 00:20:32,826
I'm also jealous that she
can normally smile, work,
286
00:20:33,215 --> 00:20:34,715
and go home.
287
00:20:36,725 --> 00:20:38,325
I don't have things...
288
00:20:38,326 --> 00:20:40,455
that are normal for other people.
289
00:20:41,596 --> 00:20:43,566
Should I even be among such people?
290
00:20:48,036 --> 00:20:49,465
She might be...
291
00:20:50,306 --> 00:20:52,405
much more impressive a person than I knew.
292
00:20:52,776 --> 00:20:55,405
No one asked you to become a fighter.
293
00:20:55,806 --> 00:20:58,675
Wouldn't it be nice if you
could mix with them normally?
294
00:21:02,415 --> 00:21:04,415
I must survive if I'm to be a fighter.
295
00:21:12,826 --> 00:21:15,695
What, I must handle another drunkard?
296
00:21:15,796 --> 00:21:17,364
Help out just this once.
297
00:21:17,365 --> 00:21:18,796
Accountants are people too.
298
00:21:21,496 --> 00:21:23,405
Mr. Accountant. No.
299
00:21:24,306 --> 00:21:28,036
Mr. Jang. You could take your mentor home.
300
00:21:28,405 --> 00:21:29,445
Goodbye.
301
00:21:29,875 --> 00:21:30,975
Hey, wait!
302
00:21:46,356 --> 00:21:47,596
You didn't have to.
303
00:21:47,856 --> 00:21:51,525
I told you to come say hi,
not pay the whole bill.
304
00:21:51,526 --> 00:21:53,335
I should stay and entertain you,
305
00:21:53,336 --> 00:21:56,435
but I have a morning
meeting I just can't miss.
306
00:21:59,106 --> 00:22:00,276
Don't.
307
00:22:01,006 --> 00:22:03,806
You're making me look bad.
308
00:22:03,875 --> 00:22:06,214
I'll come for the company card next week.
309
00:22:06,215 --> 00:22:09,184
Until then, take your team out and eat...
310
00:22:09,185 --> 00:22:10,346
all that's good for you.
311
00:22:10,915 --> 00:22:12,756
I heard your Audit Department is...
312
00:22:13,115 --> 00:22:15,826
doing all they can to get the Jisan deal.
313
00:22:16,856 --> 00:22:19,954
Things never end well when two
teams under the same roof...
314
00:22:19,955 --> 00:22:21,725
go against each other.
315
00:22:23,195 --> 00:22:25,766
Mr. Han must be very disgruntled.
316
00:22:27,395 --> 00:22:30,566
It must be added pressure on you.
317
00:22:31,405 --> 00:22:34,736
I'm here to see a respected
friend, not to discuss work.
318
00:22:36,106 --> 00:22:37,705
I have your back.
319
00:22:38,276 --> 00:22:39,444
Do you have mine?
320
00:22:39,445 --> 00:22:41,144
Sir, how about another round?
321
00:22:41,145 --> 00:22:42,815
Yes, sure. See you.
322
00:22:42,816 --> 00:22:43,915
Let's go!
323
00:22:44,516 --> 00:22:45,586
Goodbye.
324
00:23:27,526 --> 00:23:28,625
Is this the spot?
325
00:23:30,395 --> 00:23:31,925
Where Jang In Ho died.
326
00:23:37,465 --> 00:23:39,036
I won't condemn you.
327
00:23:40,405 --> 00:23:43,046
Work is like being in a play.
328
00:23:44,246 --> 00:23:46,215
That was the role you were given.
329
00:23:46,846 --> 00:23:48,576
You couldn't have refused.
330
00:23:52,915 --> 00:23:55,685
Don't take it to mean I forgive you.
331
00:23:59,526 --> 00:24:00,596
Make up for it.
332
00:24:02,965 --> 00:24:05,465
So I can let live someone I want to kill.
333
00:24:07,395 --> 00:24:10,165
Prove your going concern value...
334
00:24:11,806 --> 00:24:14,806
is greater than your liquidation value,
335
00:24:17,076 --> 00:24:18,445
and make it up to me.
336
00:24:21,975 --> 00:24:23,115
How do you mean?
337
00:24:33,256 --> 00:24:34,954
(Lee Chan Ju)
338
00:24:34,955 --> 00:24:37,095
(Lee Chan Ju: Profile)
339
00:24:37,096 --> 00:24:39,394

(Lee Chan Ju)
343
00:24:46,776 --> 00:24:48,736
If what Ms. Jin said is true,
344
00:24:49,306 --> 00:24:51,776
AN is someone important
to HK Private Equity,
345
00:24:52,276 --> 00:24:54,615
and if that person is
connected to Lee Chan Ju,
346
00:24:55,276 --> 00:24:56,945
this will be much bigger than expected.
347
00:24:58,016 --> 00:25:00,256
While Ji Soo gets closer to AN,
348
00:25:00,516 --> 00:25:03,155
it might be better if
I go after Lee Chan Ju.
349
00:25:03,986 --> 00:25:05,125
I'm sure...
350
00:25:05,826 --> 00:25:07,225
they will cross paths.
351
00:25:14,195 --> 00:25:15,705
Stand up straight.
352
00:25:15,905 --> 00:25:17,704
You incompetent fools.
353
00:25:17,705 --> 00:25:20,236
Darn you. Why do you bother to eat?
354
00:25:21,076 --> 00:25:24,005
You must be collecting housing payments.
355
00:25:24,006 --> 00:25:26,644
Spend that to avert the crisis for now.
356
00:25:26,645 --> 00:25:27,914
The apartment payments...
357
00:25:27,915 --> 00:25:30,185
will equal the price of building a complex,
358
00:25:30,316 --> 00:25:31,714
and the profits come from the stores.
359
00:25:31,715 --> 00:25:34,255
We got all that messed up,
and the stores are empty.
360
00:25:34,256 --> 00:25:35,385
Darn you!
361
00:25:36,655 --> 00:25:39,326
We have Sang Ah Medical.
362
00:25:39,556 --> 00:25:40,924
They will release a new drug soon.
363
00:25:40,925 --> 00:25:42,924
That must bring in some money.
364
00:25:42,925 --> 00:25:46,134
Release was pushed back because
the third clinical trial failed.
365
00:25:46,135 --> 00:25:47,365
You fools!
366
00:25:47,965 --> 00:25:50,266
You spend a fortune in food and do nothing!
367
00:25:50,566 --> 00:25:53,835
All our subsidiaries are busy
repaying each other's debts,
368
00:25:53,836 --> 00:25:55,305
so they're all messed up.
369
00:25:55,306 --> 00:25:57,145
Are you trying to make me feel worse?
370
00:25:58,945 --> 00:25:59,975
Forget it.
371
00:26:00,975 --> 00:26:02,885
Call Jisan Bank.
372
00:26:03,346 --> 00:26:05,684
Say we'll pay it back
soon and ask for 20...
373
00:26:05,685 --> 00:26:08,925
No, ask for some extra,
like 50 million dollars.
374
00:26:10,955 --> 00:26:12,796
Don't just stand there! Call them!
375
00:26:13,056 --> 00:26:15,566
Jisan Bank is refusing our calls.
376
00:26:16,096 --> 00:26:17,365
Why?
377
00:26:17,465 --> 00:26:19,434
Everyone is talking about...
378
00:26:19,435 --> 00:26:22,664
our group's debt-to-equity
ratio, and they won't talk to us.
379
00:26:22,665 --> 00:26:25,335
We did business with them
since my father's time!
380
00:26:25,336 --> 00:26:26,836
And they ignore our calls...
381
00:26:27,006 --> 00:26:28,806
because of some rumor?
382
00:26:30,576 --> 00:26:31,806
Those punks.
383
00:26:33,415 --> 00:26:34,546
I'll kill them all.
384
00:26:34,645 --> 00:26:35,714
Move.
385
00:26:35,715 --> 00:26:39,086
Sir, if you make them demand
we repay what we already owe...
386
00:26:52,695 --> 00:26:55,435
Why take home a paycheck
if all you say is no?
387
00:26:55,905 --> 00:26:57,404
Before closing time,
388
00:26:57,405 --> 00:26:59,275
sell something or go to a loan shark.
389
00:26:59,276 --> 00:27:00,675
Do something!
390
00:27:01,205 --> 00:27:03,974
You won't? Do you want
to get beaten to death?
391
00:27:03,975 --> 00:27:06,346
You all. Get out of here.
392
00:27:06,776 --> 00:27:07,915
Out!
393
00:27:11,846 --> 00:27:14,086
Why is everyone around me so incompetent?
394
00:27:14,516 --> 00:27:15,556
Darn it.
395
00:27:16,455 --> 00:27:17,925
I must've been crazy.
396
00:27:18,885 --> 00:27:21,026
Oh, my gosh.
397
00:27:22,425 --> 00:27:23,425
Oh, dear.
398
00:27:24,695 --> 00:27:26,395
What is it now?
399
00:28:22,056 --> 00:28:25,125
The Cakebean deal. What do you think...
400
00:28:26,125 --> 00:28:28,425
we must do to sell it well?
401
00:28:31,496 --> 00:28:32,536
Who knows?
402
00:28:33,336 --> 00:28:36,465
If I like your idea, I might give you...
403
00:28:36,865 --> 00:28:38,566
a better performance evaluation.
404
00:28:41,106 --> 00:28:42,236
For my whole team.
405
00:28:45,046 --> 00:28:46,076
Very well.
406
00:28:46,415 --> 00:28:48,046
I think I'd convince the buyer...
407
00:28:48,875 --> 00:28:51,685
what they can sell later on
if they buy Cakebean now.
408
00:28:52,486 --> 00:28:55,415
If they buy Cakebean, they
can sell something else?
409
00:28:55,925 --> 00:28:59,096
You must make the buyer feel
they're earning as they spend...
410
00:29:00,056 --> 00:29:01,455
to get them to open their wallet.
411
00:29:02,725 --> 00:29:05,566
Cakebean's positive company image,
412
00:29:06,195 --> 00:29:07,695
and a client...
413
00:29:08,536 --> 00:29:11,066
with empty store spaces who
needs people to fill them...
414
00:29:11,965 --> 00:29:13,606
would be the main target.
415
00:29:14,975 --> 00:29:16,205
For example,
416
00:29:17,875 --> 00:29:19,276
like Sang Ah Village.
417
00:29:21,846 --> 00:29:22,915
Okay.
418
00:29:34,395 --> 00:29:35,796
If I buy a franchise,
419
00:29:37,296 --> 00:29:39,026
I can sell Sang Ah Village?
420
00:29:39,266 --> 00:29:42,194
Nothing's as quick and
effective as selling property.
421
00:29:42,195 --> 00:29:45,364
That only applies to the
sale of something big.
422
00:29:45,365 --> 00:29:47,575
Sang Ah Village's store
spaces are all empty.
423
00:29:47,576 --> 00:29:50,076
I'll only make enough to
cover the price of cement.
424
00:29:51,175 --> 00:29:54,645
Do you two have the time to be here?
425
00:29:55,516 --> 00:29:56,586
Aren't you busy?
426
00:29:56,746 --> 00:29:58,685
What I'm going to suggest...
427
00:29:58,885 --> 00:30:01,355
is that you solve the empty
store problem with franchises...
428
00:30:01,356 --> 00:30:04,055
so you can sell Sang Ah
Village at a good price.
429
00:30:04,056 --> 00:30:07,195
Franchises are a dying business model.
430
00:30:07,425 --> 00:30:10,225
They've been going out for a while.
431
00:30:10,365 --> 00:30:12,965
You have a good chance
with some steady sellers.
432
00:30:13,766 --> 00:30:16,006
Cakebean is a dessert brand...
433
00:30:20,375 --> 00:30:21,705
Chairman Lee.
434
00:30:24,606 --> 00:30:26,046
What do you think...
435
00:30:27,215 --> 00:30:29,385
an audit is?
436
00:30:29,746 --> 00:30:30,885
An audit?
437
00:30:31,685 --> 00:30:35,016
Why would you ask me that, all of a sudden?
438
00:30:38,155 --> 00:30:40,295
And audit's an audit.
439
00:30:40,296 --> 00:30:42,625
What do you think it means...
440
00:30:45,066 --> 00:30:46,694
to do a good auditing job?
441
00:30:46,695 --> 00:30:48,335
It means...
442
00:30:48,336 --> 00:30:51,464
to go through a company's
finances thoroughly...
443
00:30:51,465 --> 00:30:53,076
to see if they did good or bad...
444
00:30:56,576 --> 00:30:58,375
My advisory department...
445
00:30:58,975 --> 00:31:02,884
can openly say we do a good job,
446
00:31:02,885 --> 00:31:04,816
but the audit department...
447
00:31:06,155 --> 00:31:08,684
We can't say they do a good job,
448
00:31:08,685 --> 00:31:11,385
but it's also hard to
say they do a bad job.
449
00:31:12,955 --> 00:31:16,365
I feel a predicament
as a fellow accountant.
450
00:31:19,236 --> 00:31:22,965
Even VP An Seung Yeon, who
is known in the business...
451
00:31:23,536 --> 00:31:26,175
as being great at her job,
452
00:31:26,635 --> 00:31:29,546
isn't up to par. That just says it all.
453
00:31:33,115 --> 00:31:34,346
Well, anyway...
454
00:31:36,516 --> 00:31:38,586
What kind of client would like it...
455
00:31:40,286 --> 00:31:44,786
if you told them you could
cut off their necks...
456
00:31:45,655 --> 00:31:48,496
with the knife in your hands?
457
00:31:50,066 --> 00:31:53,036
It might be better to stay blind...
458
00:31:54,836 --> 00:31:56,705
until the final blow.
459
00:32:03,175 --> 00:32:04,276
But...
460
00:32:04,945 --> 00:32:07,974
what did you say earlier? Cakebean?
461
00:32:07,975 --> 00:32:09,815
Do they sell cakes made
of beans or something?
462
00:32:16,225 --> 00:32:19,185
How did you catch on
that VP An Seung Yeon...
463
00:32:19,725 --> 00:32:21,125
contacted Chairman Lee Chan Ju?
464
00:32:21,556 --> 00:32:23,664
That guy doesn't have
anywhere to get money from,
465
00:32:23,665 --> 00:32:25,295
but he's acting so arrogant.
466
00:32:25,296 --> 00:32:27,135
The reasons are obvious.
467
00:32:27,865 --> 00:32:30,266
An Seung Yeon must've said that
if he had her do the audit,
468
00:32:30,506 --> 00:32:34,175
she'd connect him to a bank who
could help him with funding.
469
00:32:35,506 --> 00:32:38,375
Hey, let's talk later. Bye.
470
00:32:39,975 --> 00:32:41,215
Gosh.
471
00:32:42,645 --> 00:32:44,286
Right, so...
472
00:32:44,445 --> 00:32:46,184
where were we?
473
00:32:46,185 --> 00:32:48,055
Right. That cake thing.
474
00:32:48,056 --> 00:32:49,925
Yes, and the beans.
475
00:32:50,685 --> 00:32:53,596
If they buy Cakebean, they
can sell something else?
476
00:32:53,796 --> 00:32:56,965
You must make the buyer feel
they're earning as they spend...
477
00:32:57,925 --> 00:32:59,635
to get them to open their wallet.
478
00:33:14,346 --> 00:33:16,546
Is it really okay to freeze
them like this beforehand?
479
00:33:16,615 --> 00:33:18,695
That's why this is a skill
and why we have a patent.
480
00:33:19,115 --> 00:33:21,856
If we don't do this, we
won't be able to handle...
481
00:33:21,955 --> 00:33:23,384
the Christmas cake demand.
482
00:33:23,385 --> 00:33:26,296
This cooling technique could
be used in various ways,
483
00:33:26,395 --> 00:33:28,756
and not just cake. It's very impressive.
484
00:33:30,096 --> 00:33:31,695
I'm sure people will make use of it.
485
00:33:35,266 --> 00:33:38,665
(Cakebean)
486
00:33:39,975 --> 00:33:43,346
Please work hard for us
until we sign the contract.
487
00:33:44,046 --> 00:33:46,944
Cakebean is a great company...
488
00:33:46,945 --> 00:33:48,816
with many franchise locations.
489
00:33:49,786 --> 00:33:52,685
Can I ask why you're selling
such a great company?
490
00:33:52,756 --> 00:33:54,515
Well, that's...
491
00:33:54,516 --> 00:33:57,125
Hey, do you have a death wish?
492
00:33:57,286 --> 00:33:58,606
Move out of the way this instant!
493
00:34:01,555 --> 00:34:02,665
Hey!
494
00:34:02,696 --> 00:34:05,225
I won't move. Who do you
plan to kill this time?
495
00:34:05,566 --> 00:34:07,265
I refuse to take a single step from here.
496
00:34:11,265 --> 00:34:12,781
(Pushing out franchise
stores is like murder!)
497
00:34:12,805 --> 00:34:14,736
"Pushing out franchise stores?"
498
00:34:18,546 --> 00:34:20,466
You'll have to run me
over if you want to leave!
499
00:34:20,645 --> 00:34:22,244
My family is about to die.
500
00:34:22,245 --> 00:34:23,385
- I don't care.
- Quickly, please.
501
00:34:23,386 --> 00:34:25,085
- Let go of me!
- Hey, get up!
502
00:34:25,086 --> 00:34:27,116
I said, let me go!
503
00:34:27,185 --> 00:34:29,316
- What's wrong with you?
- I won't back down.
504
00:34:29,526 --> 00:34:31,824
- I will fight until the end.
- Get over here!
505
00:34:31,825 --> 00:34:33,025
- Come on!
- I refuse!
506
00:34:33,026 --> 00:34:35,325
We'll have to tell Mr. Han Seung Jo.
507
00:34:35,656 --> 00:34:36,865
I'll do it.
508
00:34:36,866 --> 00:34:38,795
Please, save me!
509
00:34:38,796 --> 00:34:40,865
- Hey, what are you doing?
- Let me go!
510
00:34:40,866 --> 00:34:42,365
(Gangnam Station Store)
511
00:34:42,366 --> 00:34:44,066
Minus 12 percent?
512
00:34:45,736 --> 00:34:47,605
Then do you mean Cakebean stores...
513
00:34:47,606 --> 00:34:49,606
face more losses the more
they run their business?
514
00:34:52,475 --> 00:34:54,915
No wonder they chained themselves
and lay down on the ground.
515
00:34:55,745 --> 00:34:58,045
Money kept coming and going in any case.
516
00:34:58,046 --> 00:35:01,284
The franchise store owners
would've found it difficult...
517
00:35:01,285 --> 00:35:02,925
to know if they were making money or not.
518
00:35:03,356 --> 00:35:05,031
They would've needed at least two years...
519
00:35:05,055 --> 00:35:06,895
to figure out that it
was a loss in the end.
520
00:35:08,225 --> 00:35:09,825
I saw this somewhere.
521
00:35:16,035 --> 00:35:18,275
Cakebean franchise stores'
average duration of business.
522
00:35:19,305 --> 00:35:22,006
HK Private Equity must've
known from the start...
523
00:35:22,575 --> 00:35:24,805
that franchise stores close in two years.
524
00:35:25,776 --> 00:35:28,245
That was why they raised our commission.
525
00:35:28,946 --> 00:35:30,345
They wanted us to sell it fast.
526
00:35:32,145 --> 00:35:33,856
Once the host dies,
527
00:35:34,455 --> 00:35:36,785
the parasite can no longer survive.
528
00:35:41,356 --> 00:35:42,555
Yes?
529
00:35:52,066 --> 00:35:54,336
How was field work today? Was it all right?
530
00:35:55,776 --> 00:35:57,074
Well,
531
00:35:57,075 --> 00:35:58,406
you know how due diligence is.
532
00:35:59,205 --> 00:36:00,415
Any other issues?
533
00:36:00,616 --> 00:36:02,096
We should make sure there aren't any.
534
00:36:02,375 --> 00:36:04,586
This is an important sales deal for me.
535
00:36:06,816 --> 00:36:08,116
Get going.
536
00:36:19,426 --> 00:36:21,494
They demanded that franchise stores
be guaranteed the right to live.
537
00:36:21,495 --> 00:36:23,615
They were throwing themselves
in front of the trucks.
538
00:36:24,265 --> 00:36:26,276
I really thought something
serious might happen.
539
00:36:26,336 --> 00:36:28,106
I believe it if they were being pushed out.
540
00:36:28,906 --> 00:36:30,644
They forced franchise stores
to take on products...
541
00:36:30,645 --> 00:36:32,575
and buy more than they could.
542
00:36:33,276 --> 00:36:36,616
This won't cause us any problems, will it?
543
00:36:36,785 --> 00:36:39,685
Mr. Jang said he'd talk
to Mr. Han about it.
544
00:36:39,816 --> 00:36:41,116
I'm sure we'll hear something.
545
00:36:51,125 --> 00:36:52,696
Chairman Lee Chan Ju is coming too?
546
00:36:56,506 --> 00:36:57,966
Yes, we'll leave right away.
547
00:37:01,935 --> 00:37:03,145
Mr. Jang.
548
00:37:03,606 --> 00:37:04,676
Later.
549
00:37:11,645 --> 00:37:13,684
And this location is...
550
00:37:13,685 --> 00:37:16,386
where a Cakebean store
will be opening soon.
551
00:37:16,411 --> 00:37:18,181
Oh, is this the location?
552
00:37:20,125 --> 00:37:23,295
The area for exclusive use is about...
553
00:37:23,296 --> 00:37:25,095
(For Lease)
554
00:37:25,265 --> 00:37:28,105
These are desserts that will be sold
at Cakebean. If you take a look...
555
00:37:28,495 --> 00:37:30,736
So this is the stuff
that's made with beans.
556
00:37:31,066 --> 00:37:34,205
Anyway, this store will
be opening up here, right?
557
00:37:34,375 --> 00:37:36,676
This stuff looks delicious.
558
00:37:40,276 --> 00:37:41,715
If we sign the contract tomorrow,
559
00:37:41,716 --> 00:37:43,196
the Cakebean sales deal will be over.
560
00:37:44,386 --> 00:37:47,085
Oh, you don't have to go with
me to Sang Ah Group tomorrow.
561
00:37:47,086 --> 00:37:49,684
Yes, I heard the chairman will
be going on a business trip.
562
00:37:49,685 --> 00:37:50,926
You know so much.
563
00:37:50,955 --> 00:37:52,555
How is it that you're doing a good job?
564
00:37:53,095 --> 00:37:56,395
You never know how a deal
might go until the very end.
565
00:38:03,566 --> 00:38:04,765
Mr. Jang.
566
00:38:05,836 --> 00:38:07,305
What happened?
567
00:38:07,975 --> 00:38:10,205
Didn't you report to Mr. Han?
568
00:38:11,676 --> 00:38:13,546
Didn't you say you'd tell him...
569
00:38:14,216 --> 00:38:16,285
about the company pushing
out franchise stores?
570
00:38:16,745 --> 00:38:18,986
I will someday.
571
00:38:20,616 --> 00:38:21,886
When?
572
00:38:22,316 --> 00:38:23,585
On the plane?
573
00:38:23,586 --> 00:38:24,955
After the whole deal is over?
574
00:38:25,886 --> 00:38:27,656
Didn't we see everything we had to see?
575
00:38:30,665 --> 00:38:32,526
What on earth are you thinking?
576
00:38:34,895 --> 00:38:38,466
I want you, Mr. Jang, to
leave Taeil Accounting.
577
00:38:39,136 --> 00:38:41,336
Even if it started with good intentions,
578
00:38:41,506 --> 00:38:44,276
I cannot allow anyone
at Taeil Accounting...
579
00:38:44,406 --> 00:38:47,575
to use others to achieve his goals.
At least, not while I'm here.
580
00:38:48,345 --> 00:38:49,744
Accountants...
581
00:38:49,745 --> 00:38:53,685
must be responsible for the
process as well as the results.
582
00:38:56,825 --> 00:38:58,426
Please allow it just once more.
583
00:39:00,156 --> 00:39:02,116
A good intention that
didn't achieve its goals...
584
00:39:02,625 --> 00:39:03,995
is meaningless.
585
00:39:06,225 --> 00:39:07,696
I want to...
586
00:39:09,866 --> 00:39:11,606
make your good intention come true.
587
00:39:15,676 --> 00:39:16,874
Whatever.
588
00:39:16,875 --> 00:39:18,245
I'll go and tell him, then.
589
00:39:18,575 --> 00:39:19,946
Someone told me...
590
00:39:20,946 --> 00:39:23,086
that accountants aren't heroes of justice.
591
00:39:23,986 --> 00:39:26,656
Is this something that
requires heroes of justice?
592
00:39:26,856 --> 00:39:28,685
It's common sense.
593
00:39:29,785 --> 00:39:31,525
Selling a company whose
financial statements...
594
00:39:31,526 --> 00:39:33,355
we can't even trust is just not right.
595
00:39:33,356 --> 00:39:35,995
Are we trying to stab the buyer
in the back when they trusted us?
596
00:39:44,136 --> 00:39:46,176
Is not telling me things
your specialty these days?
597
00:39:48,236 --> 00:39:49,335
Don't get the wrong idea.
598
00:39:49,336 --> 00:39:51,176
I was here first, and you guys came in.
599
00:39:53,245 --> 00:39:54,676
Why didn't you tell me...
600
00:39:54,776 --> 00:39:56,696
what happened when you
went to do due diligence?
601
00:40:00,116 --> 00:40:02,515
Isn't that true for you too?
602
00:40:04,185 --> 00:40:07,494
You knew, just by looking
over the financial statements,
603
00:40:07,495 --> 00:40:09,595
what HK Private Equity did to Cakebean.
604
00:40:11,995 --> 00:40:13,395
But you didn't say a word.
605
00:40:14,796 --> 00:40:16,236
Pushing out?
606
00:40:17,106 --> 00:40:19,534
We don't do stuff like forcing
our franchise store owners...
607
00:40:19,535 --> 00:40:22,575
to buy products or anything like that.
608
00:40:23,705 --> 00:40:25,275
If your sales were all legitimate,
609
00:40:25,276 --> 00:40:27,315
there would've been a sales pattern...
610
00:40:27,316 --> 00:40:29,716
even if it didn't show directly
on the financial statements.
611
00:40:30,216 --> 00:40:31,644
Since this is a dessert brand,
612
00:40:31,645 --> 00:40:33,514
there must've been changes in sales...
613
00:40:33,515 --> 00:40:35,395
depending on the season
and promotions you had.
614
00:40:36,285 --> 00:40:38,926
But Cakebean doesn't have anything
you can call a sales pattern.
615
00:40:40,095 --> 00:40:43,095
Because these sales were pieced
together by someone on purpose.
616
00:40:44,026 --> 00:40:46,266
This was a good attempt, but
you won't get your own way.
617
00:40:46,535 --> 00:40:48,595
I can't sell a product
that can't be trusted.
618
00:40:50,236 --> 00:40:51,566
Even if your client,
619
00:40:52,805 --> 00:40:54,736
Joyce Jang, made me do it?
620
00:40:58,575 --> 00:41:00,874
She said if I wanted to
make the most money I could,
621
00:41:00,875 --> 00:41:02,176
I had to listen to her.
622
00:41:06,586 --> 00:41:07,915
It wasn't Ji Soo's fault.
623
00:41:08,656 --> 00:41:11,124
It's a common thing that happens in
a private equity's exit strategy.
624
00:41:11,125 --> 00:41:12,355
(Exit: Selling an acquired
company and turning it into cash)
625
00:41:12,356 --> 00:41:14,724
Accountants have no responsibility
to consider franchise stores,
626
00:41:14,725 --> 00:41:17,066
which aren't part of the due diligence.
627
00:41:17,866 --> 00:41:19,966
Sure, so we'll just go ahead with the deal.
628
00:41:20,236 --> 00:41:21,495
What's the problem?
629
00:41:23,136 --> 00:41:24,836
This isn't like you, Jang Ho Woo.
630
00:41:25,136 --> 00:41:26,776
I'll figure it out myself.
631
00:41:27,236 --> 00:41:28,935
I'm a professional, just like you.
632
00:41:32,375 --> 00:41:33,446
Can you still say...
633
00:41:34,816 --> 00:41:37,216
accounting firms sell trust...
634
00:41:39,015 --> 00:41:40,156
instead of reports?
635
00:41:56,966 --> 00:41:58,906
(Director Han Seung Jo)
636
00:42:03,245 --> 00:42:05,106
The thing you asked for before.
637
00:42:05,805 --> 00:42:07,875
There isn't much information here either,
638
00:42:09,116 --> 00:42:10,316
but...
639
00:42:10,546 --> 00:42:13,554
I found a few companies HK
Private Equity contacted...
640
00:42:13,555 --> 00:42:14,856
and sent it to your email.
641
00:42:16,756 --> 00:42:18,886
What do these guys do?
642
00:42:43,046 --> 00:42:44,515
(President Jin Tae Soo)
643
00:42:48,185 --> 00:42:50,086
Jisan Bank President Jin Tae Soo?
644
00:42:50,486 --> 00:42:53,086
Is he still asking us to join
the special receivable bid?
645
00:42:53,185 --> 00:42:54,495
What should I do?
646
00:42:54,696 --> 00:42:57,565
Ignore it. It's not as
if there's an upside.
647
00:42:57,566 --> 00:42:58,795
(Upside: Possibility of gains
beyond expected earnings)
648
00:42:58,796 --> 00:43:01,236
Does he think I came here
just for something like that?
649
00:43:21,816 --> 00:43:24,185
Why did you want to meet? I
was already done with work.
650
00:43:33,995 --> 00:43:36,495
A foreign equity fund is
targeting Korean companies...
651
00:43:36,636 --> 00:43:39,535
and only doing business
in Korea to make money?
652
00:43:41,506 --> 00:43:42,776
Korean money?
653
00:43:43,305 --> 00:43:44,475
A Korean person?
654
00:43:44,875 --> 00:43:46,776
That's right. A foreigner
of Korean descent.
655
00:43:47,216 --> 00:43:48,744
Since they earned that money in Korea,
656
00:43:48,745 --> 00:43:51,116
that money can legally stay in Korea.
657
00:43:51,386 --> 00:43:53,386
Since the money belongs to foreigners,
658
00:43:53,816 --> 00:43:55,656
they can take it overseas if they want.
659
00:43:56,316 --> 00:43:58,526
Why are they making things so complicated?
660
00:43:58,856 --> 00:44:02,225
They can bring money out from
the dark and into the light.
661
00:44:03,495 --> 00:44:04,625
Money laundering.
662
00:44:08,196 --> 00:44:09,836
Even if this is true,
663
00:44:10,406 --> 00:44:13,066
there's no way Chairman
Lee did this on his own.
664
00:44:20,145 --> 00:44:21,446
Who does she think she is?
665
00:44:35,455 --> 00:44:36,555
Han Seung Jo?
666
00:44:39,895 --> 00:44:40,995
Move.
667
00:44:45,406 --> 00:44:46,406
It's okay.
668
00:44:55,015 --> 00:44:57,616
Does HK Private Equity's
capital come from Korea?
669
00:44:58,915 --> 00:45:00,356
What you're doing now...
670
00:45:00,685 --> 00:45:02,756
is very dangerous. Do you even know that?
671
00:45:05,586 --> 00:45:07,994
This is completely different from
pushing out franchise stores...
672
00:45:07,995 --> 00:45:10,095
like you did with Cakebean.
673
00:45:10,926 --> 00:45:12,726
I guess you're not an
incompetent accountant.
674
00:45:14,165 --> 00:45:15,336
It's dangerous?
675
00:45:16,736 --> 00:45:19,966
Dangers you are aware
of do not pose a threat.
676
00:45:21,776 --> 00:45:24,446
It's just a factor that
gets reflected in the price.
677
00:45:24,705 --> 00:45:26,945
Are you saying you get paid
more by HK Private Equity...
678
00:45:27,575 --> 00:45:29,475
because what you do is dangerous?
679
00:45:29,946 --> 00:45:33,144
As you can see, it's all paid work.
680
00:45:33,145 --> 00:45:34,216
Ji Soo.
681
00:45:35,816 --> 00:45:37,586
Why are you doing this?
682
00:45:44,566 --> 00:45:46,696
You were always acting
like you were all that,
683
00:45:49,535 --> 00:45:51,066
but I guess you're no different.
684
00:45:52,805 --> 00:45:55,045
Look at you getting drunk and
visiting an ex-girlfriend.
685
00:46:04,245 --> 00:46:05,515
The real danger...
686
00:46:07,486 --> 00:46:08,955
is uncertainty.
687
00:46:11,756 --> 00:46:14,556
A situation in which you can't judge
whether something is good or bad.
688
00:46:16,656 --> 00:46:18,765
Leave before you regret
tomorrow after sobering up.
689
00:47:23,125 --> 00:47:24,366
You have the contract, right?
690
00:47:25,895 --> 00:47:26,935
Yes.
691
00:48:05,866 --> 00:48:06,906
Get in.
692
00:48:08,935 --> 00:48:11,575
What are you doing? Chairman
Lee's schedule changed.
693
00:48:12,245 --> 00:48:13,245
Okay.
694
00:48:28,895 --> 00:48:30,025
Didn't you also want...
695
00:48:30,026 --> 00:48:32,395
this sales deal to go through?
696
00:48:32,765 --> 00:48:35,236
I thought that was why
you didn't tell Mr. Han.
697
00:48:35,796 --> 00:48:37,664
You need to drop something when
it's at the highest point...
698
00:48:37,665 --> 00:48:39,006
for it to completely shatter.
699
00:48:40,406 --> 00:48:41,935
What?
700
00:48:42,406 --> 00:48:44,205
But what's with this car?
701
00:48:45,406 --> 00:48:47,046
This is the fastest of my cars.
702
00:48:47,915 --> 00:48:49,145
"My cars?"
703
00:48:52,285 --> 00:48:53,515
Oh, Ms. Jin.
704
00:49:06,995 --> 00:49:08,066
Mr. Jang.
705
00:49:10,805 --> 00:49:13,565
There's something we need to tell
one of the passengers urgently.
706
00:49:13,566 --> 00:49:15,074
I already told you.
707
00:49:15,075 --> 00:49:17,276
Once they're past
immigration, it's impossible.
708
00:49:17,506 --> 00:49:19,175
What about a memo or an
announcement on the plane?
709
00:49:19,176 --> 00:49:23,014
We cannot do that due to issues on
personal information and safety.
710
00:49:23,015 --> 00:49:25,386
Right. I'll buy a ticket, then.
711
00:49:26,185 --> 00:49:28,816
I can get past immigration
if I have a ticket, right?
712
00:49:28,955 --> 00:49:30,954
- Here.
- Your passport, please.
713
00:49:30,955 --> 00:49:32,885
I'm not actually leaving the country.
714
00:49:32,886 --> 00:49:35,495
I'm just going inside for a
bit and coming right back out.
715
00:49:35,526 --> 00:49:36,725
Do I still need a passport?
716
00:49:37,296 --> 00:49:38,325
Yes.

Don't buy Cakebean, Chairman Lee.

What?
724
00:50:30,616 --> 00:50:32,784
Did you also come here...
725
00:50:32,785 --> 00:50:34,816
to tell me that?
726
00:50:36,256 --> 00:50:37,285

740
00:51:47,356 --> 00:51:49,995
Please don't sign that
contract, Chairman Lee.
741
00:51:51,265 --> 00:51:52,296
What?
742
00:51:52,366 --> 00:51:55,495
Cakebean is a lot different
from what you know.
743
00:51:56,236 --> 00:51:58,906
I can prove it to you easily.
744
00:51:59,566 --> 00:52:01,575
That's impossible.
745

746
00:52:04,075 --> 00:52:06,645
Vice President Han Je
Kyun may not have known.
747
00:52:07,676 --> 00:52:09,075
Or maybe he did.
748
00:52:10,716 --> 00:52:12,045
If he didn't know, it was a mistake.
749
00:52:12,046 --> 00:52:13,685
If he knew, he deceived you.
750

The one who takes away
the poisonous cake...
753
00:52:24,765 --> 00:52:27,066
appears to be more amazing...
754
00:52:27,696 --> 00:52:29,296
than the one who gives a sweet cake.

Who are you to break the deal?
759
00:53:50,515 --> 00:53:51,886
I said you'd pay for the price...
760
00:53:54,015 --> 00:53:55,455
How dare you backstab me?
761
00:53:56,015 --> 00:53:58,086
Were you planning this to screw me over?
762
00:53:59,086 --> 00:54:00,426
Did you set me up?
763
00:54:00,595 --> 00:54:02,895

764
00:54:04,696 --> 00:54:06,066
What's wrong with you?
765
00:54:24,785 --> 00:54:26,816
Let's meet as soon as I return to Korea.
766
00:54:26,915 --> 00:54:28,515
We need to finish our conversation.
767
00:54:34,995 --> 00:54:37,035
You didn't hold out until
he came to the airport...
768
00:54:38,895 --> 00:54:40,426
If that worked,
769
00:54:40,796 --> 00:54:42,395
let's say that was part of my plan.
770
00:54:44,035 --> 00:54:45,165

included in Cakebean sales deal?
773
00:54:54,046 --> 00:54:56,215
No, HK Private Equity said...
774
00:54:56,216 --> 00:54:58,446
they were going to keep the patent.
775
00:54:59,386 --> 00:55:00,986
They'll sell the company...
776
00:55:01,555 --> 00:55:02,955

Patent?
782
00:55:37,455 --> 00:55:40,526
That's all the patents
HK Private Equity owns?
783
00:55:41,995 --> 00:55:46,165
Why did they need so many patents?
784
00:55:48,395 --> 00:55:49,695
It's a shield.
785
00:55:49,696 --> 00:55:52,265
A shield to protect me from
responsibility and criticism.
786
00:55:52,866 --> 00:55:54,276
With that,
787
00:55:54,676 --> 00:55:56,076
even a slush fund is not a problem.
788
00:55:56,776 --> 00:55:58,745
Do you think this would
work in times like this?
789
00:56:00,345 --> 00:56:03,045
I noticed the city's biggest
food manufacturer is...
790
00:56:03,046 --> 00:56:05,716
located in your district.
791
00:56:06,015 --> 00:56:10,415
That company must be dying to
support your political funds.
792
00:56:11,225 --> 00:56:13,824
If they could, they'd
rather pay you some...
793
00:56:13,825 --> 00:56:16,395
and receive benefits in return.
794
00:56:16,825 --> 00:56:19,366
They're not probably aware of how.
795
00:56:20,895 --> 00:56:22,495
I'll solve the problem for you.
796
00:56:22,595 --> 00:56:24,106
In a legal...
797
00:56:24,136 --> 00:56:25,366
and safe way.
798
00:56:30,805 --> 00:56:32,345
Patent dues.
799
00:56:34,816 --> 00:56:36,736
The money one pays to the
owner of the patent...
800
00:56:37,075 --> 00:56:39,185
for using the patent?
801
00:56:40,216 --> 00:56:42,655
If you exchange money for no good reason,
802
00:56:42,656 --> 00:56:44,785
that's improper solicitation and bribery.
803
00:56:44,926 --> 00:56:46,684
But if you lend a patent
the company needs...
804
00:56:46,685 --> 00:56:48,026
and charge them for it,
805
00:56:48,625 --> 00:56:50,156
that's business.
806
00:56:51,466 --> 00:56:54,196
So this is a shield?
807
00:56:54,395 --> 00:56:56,395
The exclusive right
approved by the country.
808
00:56:56,966 --> 00:56:58,435
That's a patent.
809
00:56:58,566 --> 00:57:00,875
It becomes legal tunneling.
810
00:57:01,305 --> 00:57:02,875
Refer to this data,
811
00:57:03,035 --> 00:57:07,946
and check who has HK Private
Equity's patent licenses.
812
00:57:08,415 --> 00:57:09,515
Yes, sir.
813
00:57:09,716 --> 00:57:12,316
And if you give this patent to your son,
814
00:57:12,486 --> 00:57:14,586
that solves the gift tax problem.
815
00:57:15,256 --> 00:57:17,256
It also lets you become a good father.
816
00:57:17,825 --> 00:57:19,356

How did the interview go with

In his 40s, a lone breadwinner
with a lot of loans.
836
00:58:18,886 --> 00:58:21,055
Pick someone who needs
money for his children.
837
00:58:21,316 --> 00:58:23,285
No retreat would make him obedient.

accomplishment these days?
839
00:58:27,225 --> 00:58:29,595

841
00:58:39,305 --> 00:58:41,625
I was actually on my way to see you.
I'm glad you're here.
842
00:58:43,575 --> 00:58:46,275
I want to get paid for
lending you my name...
843
00:58:46,276 --> 00:58:48,176
last time.
844
00:58:48,975 --> 00:58:50,216
Right.
845
00:58:50,415 --> 00:58:51,816
What would you like?
846
00:58:53,116 --> 00:58:55,685
You don't even know what I want.
Why are you so confident?
847
00:59:00,356 --> 00:59:02,555
You want me to collect
Sang Ah Group's bonds?
848
00:59:03,656 --> 00:59:06,164
For a company with the owner
risk like Sang Ah Group,
849
00:59:06,165 --> 00:59:08,741
the creditors will become more
powerful than shareholders one day.
850
00:59:08,765 --> 00:59:11,135
Even if there's an owner risk,
851
00:59:11,136 --> 00:59:12,865
as long as the company pays the
principal and interest regularly,
852
00:59:12,866 --> 00:59:15,006
there's nothing creditors can do.
853
00:59:15,176 --> 00:59:17,236
The situation may change anytime.
854
00:59:22,716 --> 00:59:24,385
If the situation changes,
855
00:59:24,386 --> 00:59:27,145
the creditor's status will also change.

when they get paid on time.

You...
865
01:00:29,116 --> 01:00:32,116
Do you always meddle with other's business?
866
01:00:33,515 --> 01:00:36,156
It's okay to slack off sometimes.
What's the big deal?
867
01:00:36,555 --> 01:00:38,026
Why are you so ashamed of it?
868
01:00:45,225 --> 01:00:47,526
I didn't do anything to be ashamed of.
869
01:00:47,765 --> 01:00:49,095
Then let me join you.

- I'm never nosy...

on Sang Ah Group first.

Do I need a reason?

become today's comrade.

I'll visit you at Taeil Accounting.

Seung Yeon really is.
