Punk.

Right?

Episode 12

Hyung! You're really back, right?

I can't believe it.

Yes, I'm back.

Lee Dong Wook's hyung, Lee Dong Chul, is finally back again, right?

Yes!

Dong Wook, are you alright?

Don't worry, Hyung.

I won't let it happen again.

I will never be apart from you again!

No matter how fate may want us to be separated,

I will never be apart from you again, Hyung!

Hyung!

Dong Wook!

Whether we live or die, we must fight Tae Sung 'till the very end.

I'll be the lead.

They took Yo Sub, and they took Dong Wook too,

I'll fight them from now on.

Lee Dong Wook is back, Dong Wook's here!

Aunt, Oppa is here!

Oppa! Oppa!

Hyungnim...

It's Dong Wook.

Dong Wook!

Dong Wook.

- Mother! - Yes, yes.

Mother!

It's good you came back.

You came back, you came back. I'm so happy you're back.

You're back.

Mother.

Not only your younger son came back alive,

Mother, Hyung...

I came together with him.

What are you saying?

Hyung is back, Mother.

Dong Chul hyung has come back, Mother.

Dong Chul hyung...

He has come back, Mother.

Dong Chul's father?

It's Hyung, Mother.

It's Dong Chul hyung.

Hyung came back and rescued me, Mother.

Is that guy...?

Dong Chul?

Yes, Mother.

Hyungnim...

It's Dong Chul.

Are you like me, too?

Someone who gives his all without regret...

When you hurt, someone who's willing to take over the hurts...

Do you feel the same as me?

Are you like me, too?

Someone who gives his life without regret...

If you ever call me, no matter where, I'll run to you...

Someone like that, is he here?

Even if your heart hurts, it's already enough...

I gave you my heart, without you I'm suffering even more...

Please promise me one thing, if you're just like me...

I'd even die for you...

Even as time passes...

Remember that my heart won't change...

Even if I have to lose my life,

I won't desert you,

Although I have nothing,

I want to give you everything,

My only wish is for you to be happy...

For you to be where there is no sorrow...

Correct...

Lee Ki Chul...

And Yang Chun Hee's son,

Lee Dong Chul is back.

My child,

Where have you been all this while?

Where did you go?

You look just like your father,

You came back all grown up.

Dong Chul!

My child,

Just like in the past, you don't say a thing?

Can't you say something, my child?

Mother.

Mother...

Yes.

Mother!

Yes, I won't go anywhere else, my son.

I won't go anywhere, I'm right here.

I'll be right here.

Mother, I'm sorry.

Yes, I won't go anywhere, I won't go anywhere.

So good to have you back.

It's good that you're back.

Mother!

Where have you been? Where did you go?

I understand. I will do as you say.

You have been so badly inconvenienced, I really don't know what to say.

Yes.

Yes, yes, that's right. Yes, of course I will do it.

After I get it done, I'll come to see you right away.

Yes, yes, yes.

Goodness.

Father.

Is it true that the demolition team is up against the residents?

They shouldn't be called as a demolition team, Father.

The police was activated in order to suppress the residents' riots.

- Who was there? - Myung Hun.

Get him out of there immediately!

The upper levels found out about this and they are very unhappy.

The General has stuck out his own head as a guarantee.

What upper levels?

How many people can actually move the General?

Why are you asking about nonsense?

They have instructed us to give as much compensation as the resident's request.

Solve this problem cleanly and immediately!

As a precaution,

You better leave this place first, sir.

If I give way now, they will give chase all the way to Tae Sun headquarters.

Because I messed up the first sector of the demolition, it has dragged on until now.

So I must be responsible for wrapping up the problem.

Everyone, take your positions. Pay full attention now.

A bunch of lunatics, they're really getting ready to kill.

Lee Dong Chul?

It is Lee Dong Chul.

Get him!

Shin Myung Hun...

Shin Myung Hun!

Lee Dong Chul...

Lee Dong Chul!

Do you still remember me?

I'm the one who helped you escape from the Youth Detention Center, I'm Wang Gun.

Wang Gun?

How dare you say anything, you jerk!

You betrayed your pals,

When you ran away with the stolen gold bars,

you shouldn't plan to come back.

If you've returned then you should know where you're going to die, right?

The righteous Lee Dong Chul,

He's just a betrayer, after all.

Lee Dong Wook, you!

When you become a prosecutor, you should first judge your own brother.

Shin Myung Hun...

Although I don't understand what you're saying now,

there's one thing I want you to remember.

This is not where you should be.

If you don't want to get hurt, hurry home.

The betrayer seems to be showing concern for me.

It feels like a brother who was dead, came back to life again,

And offering me a gentle advice.

I was hoping you'd be different from your father.

If you're going to live like your father then your life has no hope!

Shut up, Lee Dong Chul!

What right do you have to give me such wild teachings?

I heard Kangwondo's scholar has degenerated to the lowest level,

serving professional gamblers as a living in Macau.

Why did you put Lee Dong Wook in Namyoungdong and bring unrest to this village?

I won't ask you again.

The enemy whom we hate, just your father, one will do!

Do you still remember our childhood days?

Even then, Lee Dong Chul's charisma was impressive.

I was so envious of Lee Dong Wook who had a brother like Lee Dong Chul.

But not anymore.

I'm not so stupid as to forgive you who slandered my father as a murderer.

Do you want to negotiate as we requested then leave this village?

Or make this village into a wasteland and be chased off this ground!?

We've been ordered to withdraw immediately.

You mean right now?

Withdraw unconditionally?

Yes, unconditionally. Hurry.

Right now, the opposition party and the reporters are on their way here.

We have to dodge them now.

Then are we supposed to let them all surge into Tae Sung headquarter?

Those up there will take care of the negotiations.

President Oh got his orders directly from the top,

We are to wait till the legal demolition order is out.

Let's avoid a confrontation for now. Tell them to disperse.

Withdraw! Withdraw!

Until the demolition order comes out, we will hold on.

Guarantee the right to live!

Guarantee! Guarantee!

Lee Dong Chul-Lee Dong Wook brothers,

Listen to me.

Although we are withdrawing for the time being,

But I guarantee you one day,

On this very ground, Tae Sung Construction will build for sure,

Big-scale apartments!

Guarantee the right to live!

Guarantee! Guarantee!

How can life be like this?

Where is that beggar hunting dog and what he's doing, is of no concern to me.

But I keep wanting to find out news about him.

I've become so weird.

How can I waste my youth like this, so unbelievably? Huh?

Why aren't you asleep, waiting up 'til now?

Wasn't I supposed to be the telephone operator?

I even prepared the wine which you'd want to drink.

Just go ahead.

Which button did you press, Dad?

Tae Sung's President Oh is looking for you urgently.

And?

Your overseas partner, Attorney Kim, he's looking for the hunting dog.

- Why? - How would I know?

Sleep.

How did it go? That hunting dog?

You waited up only because you were curious about him?

Don't ever treat him like a hunting dog.

He's a hunting dog not to be trifled with, is that what you mean?

Yes.

Young Ran.

The tears which flows out of human eyes,

do you know how many types there are?

I don't know them all, but I know some.

What about it?

He's a man who makes tears flow out of our eyes.

- Out of whose eyes? - Mine.

Really!

What was his trick? A hunting dog even made his owner cry!

Oh yeah, President Min of Hansae Daily's called too.

Hello?

Sir...

I heard there was a party and I was the only one not invited.

That was a party arranged before you came back.

Well, I'm calling because of an urgent matter.

Is it regarding the international hotel?

I only just got the news too.

About the transfer of the international hotel,

It has been tendered quickly as lightning.

Are you bluffing me now?

I was just as shocked as you,

I'll get back to my office now and check it out.

Tomorrow morning, we'll know the full details.

So you know now.

- And now you're happy? - Yes. This is my first experience.

Your first experience at winning over me?

Yes.

But I'm not that happy.

Since it's not my intention to win over you.

Sounds like one pursuing law, just speak your mind.

- What did you say to the opposition party? - I didn't only go to the opposition party.

I heard you mentioned you're his daughter.

You're here in a hurry because you got the call, right?

Where is Lee Dong Wook right now?

Why ask me for his whereabouts?

I'm here to tell you to locate your own position and status.

- Don't ever show up there again. - What if I do?

That friend of yours...

I heard he will be enlisted by force.

What?

Says who?

Yes, I'll be right down.

I'll be right down, President.

What is happening, Mother?

Mother!

The priest and the station master took her away.

What?

Then...?

Why must you be away from the hospital?

Didn't I ask you to help me watch over her?

What were you doing away from the hospital?

Why do you think only of your own suffering?

You think you're suffering more than Ji Hyun now?

What were you thinking?

That you did something which is unfit for human!

What you have done, do you understand it or not?!

I do! I know!

That is my love.

I can't let it go.

My love.

Thank you.

Thank you for coming here.

Mom.

That's right.

Your aunt must be feeling so happy about Dong Chul's return.

Hyung...

Go and pay your respects to Mother.

Then tell her everything you didn't get to say all these years.

Hyung, you know Mother, right?

Even if she says hurting words,

just for today, don't take it to heart, Hyung.

Kun-oppa*

(*Big Brother)

Yes, Ki Sun?

No matter what she says to you, just listen to her quietly.

Your mother's temper...

If she says Tae Baek mountain is to be flattened,

She'll only give up when Tae Baek Mountain gets flattened.

Aunt...

How much....

Do you know how much we missed you?

Do you know how much we missed you?

Do you know how much we missed you?

Aunt.

Oh dear, even when you were young, you were closer to her than your mother,

always staying at her shop,

but really, holding your aunt and crying, before you pay respects to your mother?

Don't you know your mother's temper?

She is not someone who will defend her children unconditionally.

Sister, Dong Chul is here to pay respects to you.

I have things to say to Dong Chul. You wait outside.

Ah! Yes, yes.

I don't know what you're going to say but just limit it somewhat, alright?

It's been such a long time, after all.

Mother, let me bow to you.

That will do.

Forget about me.

Just bow to your father instead.

I am sorry, Mother.

I didn't fulfill my duties as the eldest son.

I only just came back, I'm so unfilial.

If only like in the past,

I can kneel before you and be hit by you, that'll be great, Mother.

This is the money you sent to Priest Han.

Not a cent was spent from it. It hasn't been touched at all.

I had a feeling the money is tainted,

I was afraid because of this money,

Our whole family might get destroyed.

So we grit our teeth to leave it untouched.

Why did you escape from the Youth Detention Center?

And became the gangster who stole the gold bars?

Only today I found out,

You sold the stolen gold bars,

Got on a smuggling boat to a foreign land,

Served professional gamblers there to send money home,

This is that money.

Mother...

Yes, you jerk.

You should have come back when I'm deaf so I won't hear about it.

Or you could come back when I'm old and senile, not knowing anything.

Or come back only after I die.

How could you?

Come back as a thug serving gamblers?

How can you face up to your father, your brother and I?

How dare you come back like this?

- Mother. - Yes.

At least you're Lee Ki Chul's son,

How bad can you get? That's what I kept holding on to.

But how could you?

Come back here in this state?!

We're so disappointed in you, you jerk!

How can you appear like this and make me so sad?!

Hyungnim...

Don't say this.

How he had to leave and how he finally came back, how can you say this now?

Don't do this, Hyungnim!

Yes.

When I heard how you ran away from the Youth Detention Center,

I knew my eldest son would come to no good.

I took it as I've lost a son and set my eyes on Dong Wook only.

I took him as my lamp and lived on until now.

Sister!

Why did Dong Chul have to escape from the Youth Detention Center?

For whose sake?

All because of you, it was all for you!

What did you say?

- He ran away because of me? - Yes, all because of you.

What is Ok Hee talking about?

She said it's all because of you!

What?

Dong Wook!

What are they talking about?

- Mother! - Go back and lie down.

Your brother escaped from the Youth Detention Center,

Was it because of me?

- Hyung... - Don't say anymore.

Forget it.

Hyung!

It was because of that?

When I was fighting for my life,

He couldn't turn a blind eye on me,

So he stole the gold bars to sell,

And got me to the hospital and saved my life.

Is that it?

That must be it.

That must be.

I just knew it.

- Mother! - Was it you?

Did you ask him to do that?

He was so young, what would he know?

I was the one who did it.

Me!

Me, it was me!

I sold my son so that I could save my own life?

I sold out my eldest son so that I could continue this pitiful life?

What pitiful life?

If you died, we all wouldn't have lived on.

Jung Ja, you...

Just because you didn't give birth to him,

You sold him out like that?

My pitiful life,

It'll be over some day, sooner or later.

When I get to hell, what am I going to tell his father?

Hyungnim, did Dong Chul's life come to an end?

When he ran away, did his life come to an end?

Jung Ja, you...!

Don't you have ears and eyes?

They...

Those bastards, what they said about Dong Chul,

They said he was a useless bum and everyone thinks he's just a hoodlum!

No matter what others said,

our Dong Chul's life is not over yet.

Who knows?

He came back alive, it's not too late to start now.

Who knows?

Dong Chul might become even more successful than Dong Wook.

No one knows, right?

Damn you!

Gosh, that's enough.

- So scary. - Mother!

Go out, you go out.

Dear heavens.

Dong Chul's father...

I can't face up to you anymore.

In order to save my life,

my son had nowhere to go.

I became such a mother...

Just wait and see, Hyungnim. How bad can this son get?

How Dong Chul played his role as eldest son, just wait and see, Hyungnim!

Dong Chul, you! You tell me, yourself.

What's your intention for coming back?

Is it really like what your aunt said? That you want to start over again?

Of course, of course he will.

Didn't I tell you he's starting over again?

How are you going to start over again?

It's not too late now!

If he settles down his heart and starts to study,

he can achieve even more than a prosecutor.

I didn't ask you! I'm asking Dong Chul!

What I should learn from society, I've learned it all.

And so?

Dong Wook will use the law to judge Shin Tae Hwan and...

I will use my strength to judge him.

Strength? What strength?

A tooth for a tooth,

Killing one another with knives,

The strength for illegal means and jail term?

Yes, the strength to correct the twisted law.

You're a servant to others, what strength do you have to correct the law?

Mother.

Was it because there's no law that Father passed away?

Do you know what the law is?

Do you know what the law is?

The law is money!

Money!

That is strength.

He...

Listen to what this useless bum is saying.

He...

If he...

If he's sinking into quicksand, he's gone down quite far now.

He has come back as someone who cannot be redeemed.

You listen to me carefully.

You've already...

Become a stumbling block your brother's future.

From now on, do not appear anywhere near Dong Wook.

Do you understand me?!

How did Dong Wook get out of Namyoungdong?

Did he get out with help from the law? No!

- It was with the help of strength. - What did you say?

He got out with help from strength, Mother!

- Hyung! - Dong Wook!

Don't look at him!

Don't listen to what he says!

And don't call him hyung too!

This punk came back as one who would destroy your future!

Dong Chul, never appear in front of me again!

Never appear in front of me or your brother again!

Now you're no longer son of Lee Ki Chul, you jerk!

Hyung!

- I have to get back. - Where to?

- Your home is here. Where are you going? - Just do as Mother said.

You don't have to know so much.

- Kun-oppa! - Dong Chul!

Hyung!

Take care of Mother.

Hyung!

Hyung!

Why is it so noisy? It's already so late in the night.

You're out here to get bitten by the hunting dog?

What a loyal hunting dog!

It's been ages since you came home, spending the night at your home is not too much.

For a hunting dog who has vowed his loyalty, the owner will wait up for him at the gate?

Did you know?

A dog whose vowed his loyalty can turn around and bite its owner too.

My dad's encountered it many times but he's never been fooled.

Remember, that kind of hunting dog,

I always had them taken care of behind the scenes.

Does such a good plan even exist?

With such a good plan available, why am I wasting my efforts then?

Yes.

Lee Dong Wook has violated the country's law,

So of course he needs to be reformed.

I will get on it right away. I won't ever forget your favor, sir.

I have to go, Father.

I want to go. I want to go see her.

Ji Hyun doesn't want to see you.

No, Father, it could be the opposite.

Ji Hyun could be calling out for me eagerly.

No, Ji Hyun only has me now.

I have to be by her side. No, I will be by her side for life.

Dong Wook.

Do you really love Ji Hyun?

What are you saying?

Ji Hyun only has me now, Lee Dong Wook.

If what you're saying is true,

if you really do love Ji Hyun,

then you can't do as you wish.

Just let Ji Hyun be for now.

For Ji Hyun, to see you now is the most painful thing in this world.

- Don't you understand? - No.

No matter what state Ji Hyun is in right now, I don't mind.

Now in my ears, I can only hear Ji Hyun's voice calling for me!

Dong Wook.

I have to go, no matter what you all say, I have to go.

You're so useless. You're just like your brother.

You're not thinking clearly right now.

Just let your brother be the only one who's not clear in his mind.

You can't go. You shouldn't go!

No matter what you all say, I have to go, Mother!

Dong Wook!

Ji Hyun! Ji Hyun!

Ji Hyun!

Ji Hyun!

Ji Hyun!

Ji Hyun, Ji Hyun, it's me.

Ji Hyun, open up.

Ji Hyun!

Ji Hyun!

Ji Hyun!

Ji Hyun!

Ji Hyun!

Ji Hyun!

Ji Hyun!

Ji Hyun!

Ji Hyun!

Ji Hyun!

Ji Hyun!

Ji Hyun, it's me.

Ji Hyun!

Ji Hyun!

Ji Hyun, it's me! Ji Hyun!

Ji Hyun!

Ji Hyun! Ji Hyun!

Ji Hyun!

Ji Hyun, it's me, open up!

Ji Hyun!

Ji Hyun!

Ji Hyun!

You're Lee Dong Wook, correct?

- Who are you? - Your superiors from the army.

Let me go. Who are you?

You're going to the army to have a taste of reformation.

There isn't even any enlistment letter, what right do you have to get me into the army now?

Any student who violates the law, can get enlisted without notification, don't you know that?

Follow me!

Ji Hyun!

Dong Chul!

It's me, it's me!

Get out!

Get out quick!

Oh dear, my child.

You should never come to this place again.

Dok Sa!

How have you been?

- Are you alright? - You've lost weight.

Dok Sa, Dong Chul hyung is here too.

Do you still recognize me, Dok Sa?

Congrats on your release.

Lee Dong Chul.

What do you want from me?

If you want to kill the betrayer who wanted to get rid of your brother,

Then just do it swiftly.

Dok Sa, it seems you still remember you betrayed me.

Yes.

I heard for a life that's not worth living, to betray is the rule for survival.

Maybe that's the reason why,

among the Go Hap gang, I long to see you the most.

Shut up, you jerk!

From now on, the crippled Dok Sa will never plot against you.

So just go ahead and laugh at me.

Yes, you punk,

Do you want to hear something else from me?

I can help you heal your leg and get you a job.

You can continue to make a living from betrayal.

I heard after some time, it won't heal so easily.

That's why I helped to reduce your sentence.

You jerk.

Just how capable are you,

that you can bluff about reducing my sentence?

Hey punk.

When you were lonely in jail,

Didn't you say you missed me too?

You jerk!

You!

Let's see if you can heal my leg!

I will...

I will...

I will be the first to betray you and stab you in the back!

No, you're way too arrogant now, jerk.

That's why...

In my eyes now, you should be dead!

It's been hard on you.

So hard on you.

Folks like you, we can kill you quietly any time.

How dare you protest against government policies and indulge in student movements too!

Ji Hyun! Ji Hyun!

Wake up! Don't die!

Fine. I'll go and die with you so long as you let Dong Wook out.

What should I do?

I thought if I died by myself, everything would end.

In my body...

There's another life now.

Now, I can no longer love the one I love,

My life is cursed now.

Why me?

Why is it me?

What did I do wrong?!

What am I supposed to do?

Ji Hyun, now...

You have to think of those who love you.

Those who love me?

The only one I can think of,

Is the one who said he loved me but cast me into my current state.

Don't tell me to forgive him, Father.

Yes.

Don't forgive him.

Don't forgive.

How is it possible to forgive him now?

That's why, to forgive is not a humanly possible thing.

But Ji Hyun,

Humans...

Do sin, after all.

Even towards those whom we love most,

We cannot convey our love clearly.

Even a love that's worth more than life itself,

We don't seem to be able to express it well.

That's human.

So what am I supposed to do?

In the filthy state that I'm in,

To stand anywhere outside the church, I have no confidence at all.

No matter how many million times I think about it,

I have no confidence of living in the outside world, Father.

I...

I only have death as my way out.

Death will not end the pain.

Be strong.

The only way is to be strong.

When one has been through the pain of death,

and overcomes it,

another life will grow out of it.

Shouldn't you choose such a path?

I cannot bear it!

It's painful to even breathe, Father.

First, think of the life that's in you now.

Twenty years ago,

your mother who was pregnant with you,

may have borne the same pain as you now.

No.

She overcame it.

I'm like a beast,

But I don't have the courage to go and die.

I wanted to die to convey,

That's how my love is.

But even now...

I'm still alive with my thick-skin.

- Ji Hyun... - Don't you call out my name.

You...

The Ji Hyun whom you ruined like a beast, is already dead.

You killed her!

Then I should follow her and die too.

In a world without you, there's no meaning at all to me.

Even if you die...

Even if you die, my pain will not end.

Even if you die a million times over, my pain will not end!

Forgive me, Ji Hyun. Please forgive me.

From the moment I was born,

that's all I learnt to do.

Forgive me.

From now on, the only one who can make me live like a human,

you're the only one.

Please forgive me.

You want me... to forgive you?

Forgive me.

If there's no use of me dying,

Then please rescue a beast like me and make me human.

The only one I can trust,

it's you.

Until now, you still don't know the meaning of pain.

I'm in pain too!

I'm like a beast, but I'm in pain too.

Ji Hyun, save me!

Ji Hyun, please save me!

Ji Hyun.

Ji Hyun.

When this is done, it will co-locate with a hotel and be the biggest publishing house.

It was a tough decision to make,

and a tough project to embark on.

I heard that on this issue of Hansae Daily's building construction,

President Guk has been publicly criticizing the co-existence of Tae Sung and the publishing house.

Not just that, he even constricted Tae Sung's source of funds.

It's scary.

He seems to be furious over the tender of the international hotel.

Moreover it's Tae Sung who won the bid so he's taking it to heart.

President.

Although the upper level has transferred the hotel to San Mo,

But what about the casino?

Well...

Please help Tae Sung to achieve its fullest potential, President.

President Guk will definitely use all his weapons this time round.

So the worst case scenarios is the slot machines...

So I've caught you off-guard.

Even though we might still be small in ability right now,

But I have my antennas, President.

For a clean man like President Oh,

can he get into a business like that?

President, this is the era for development.

The wheel of development can go so fast,

But if we sit and wait, we might get trampled under the wheels.

How did you get information on the slot machines?

Indeed, it is first class intelligence.

I heard news that slot machines will be placed in the resort hotel.

Is that true?

Don't tell me President Guk is thinking of seizing that too?

Well, I don't know for sure.

Director Shin.

The government's budget for the Olympic construction is hundreds of billions.

I'm quite closely linked to the guy in charge of that,

If Tae Sung can get a small portion of it, it'll still be rather sizeable.

Please help us and make us fly, President.

President.

President Guk has been waiting for more than two hours.

1988 Olympic Games,

We, the 8.5 million populations, of course...

What wind is blowing now?

President Guk came to see me without a prior phone call.

It seems you're feeling not just a teeny bit frustrated.

I heard Hansae Daily's construction of the new offices is progressing very fast,

You, aren't you the tycoon?

Tae Sung has only just started.

Is that why every big project that needs expansion is given to Tae Sung?

The Olympic construction projects should be heading to them too.

The casino is no different from the coins in your pocket,

Everyone knows it's yours.

So don't put me in a tough spot.

Let's wait and see, shall we?

Hyungnim, let me make this clear,

The returns from the casino, I won't short-change you on that.

So, do not obstruct me.

You...

I can reveal all of it publicly now, how Tae Sung has accumulated its secret funds.

I say, my brother,

A business is a living thing,

and money is the lifeblood. Blood.

Blood that is circulating, who can do such a good job of hiding it?

Until Hansae Daily finishes its construction, don't move.

Is that what you mean?

Are they here?

The guests from Singapore are here.

Table 7.

But the dealer has been changed?

She used both hard and soft tactics to divert our dealer elsewhere.

Is that so?

Miss.

Who agreed to let you be here?

Using various new faces here is a good thing,

But the casino is not a gathering spot for gangsters.

Please run this casino with good style.

Bets down, please.

Just a second.

You called for me?

How did the Macau trip go?

How did the Macau trip go?

Such arrogance.

Must I make a trip report to someone like you, the least of the fellas here?

I'm sorry.

You fired all the people I placed here at the casino,

And substituted with your guys.

I only fired those who have been showing bad manners.

Fired?

You're only a guy in charge of security,

You didn't even inform me before firing them at your will?

The one who got some guys to attack me, wasn't that you, Attorney Kim?

I barely survived the attack,

Attorney Kim, why did you want me dead?

Jerk!

Who's the mastermind?

You rat, how dare you make baseless claims?

When a rat is forced to a corner, it'll bite the cat too. Since I'm in this already, let me ask you one more thing.

Onsite at Macau's harbor construction,

I heard the workers there don't get paid on time.

Is that true?

This punk. Have you placed your guys in Macau too?

Even if I hadn't, Macau is not unfamiliar territory for me and...

And?

I met you once on the floating casino.

I wasn't sent by anyone but I just happened to be there.

What did you see?

What did you see? Tell me!

Why are you so impulsive?

I only saw a little of your excessive passion for the game.

Excessive passion?

Yes.

You bastard.

Your ambition is much bigger than it appears.

I've belittled you.

You won't just bite the cat, you will even bit the lion.

You...

If you don't wish to die, be careful what you say in front of the President.

Your tone...

Is exactly like the tone of Tae Sung's Director Shin Tae Hwan.

Why bring up Director Shin Tae Hwan?

You heard what I said.

The President's back.

Dong Chul, there are guests out there, go take a look.

Yes, I'll go now.

I know, I know.

This is not a place for just anyone, who doesn't know that?

I know that but I'm here for Lee Dong Chul.

If I don't see Lee Dong Chul, I won't go.

I have to see Lee Dong Chul, I'm going in.

Really!

I am Lee Dong Chul's aunt, his aunt.

I just have a few words for him then I'll leave.

Get away!

You want the slot machines?

You wanted to be a lawyer just for this?

You want the slot machine market?

Do you?

I mean, after you get the international hotel casino,

maybe in Pusan or Jeju island, you can let me have it...

You want independence? Is that it?

Why would I leave you to be independent on my own?

What I mean is, my children are big now,

It's always been my dream to have my own decent shop.

Also from your angle, if you can place your power in a bigger territory,

there's nothing to be afraid of in this business.

Afraid?

Hey! Are you using your legal know-how...

To bind me now?

I don't know what you mean.

Then let me tell you all that I've kept hidden in my heart all this time.

Punk.

You've touched that overseas secret fund under your name, haven't you?

What?

During this time,

using my exclusive intelligence, you've made quite a bundle.

Did you think I'd question you?

You jerk. What did you tell me when we first met?

In front of me, you made law and justice sound like your life,

Justice, my foot!

You've degenerated till there's a smell of decay on you now.

You want a shop?

You mean you want to make use of the law to do business?

Tell me, damn you!

President.

You want to say you've degenerated because of Guk Dae Hwa?

President. Are my words making you upset?

What nonsense?

Not a least bit sad, you jerk!

Arrogant fool!

You should have waited until I arranged it for you, that should be the way!

Damn you!

Correct or not?

I'm warning you.

Stop revealing information on the slot machines.

Understand?

Yes, I do.

I'm sorry, please forgive me.

Hey, when a fish goes bad, it still can be eaten, it's good for the windpipe.

Jerk, when a man goes bad, there's no more use for him then!

Go and prepare the Macau harbor construction report!

I'm headed for the Seoul office.

Hwang Ja, Attorney Kim will leave soon.

Follow him, see where he's headed.

Yes, tag him 24-hours.

He's leaving now.

Tag him carefully.

Will Ji Hyun be willing to see you?

Don't waste your effort.

Don't come again.

I'm not here of my own accord, Father.

Dong Wook wanted me to come so here I am.

He wanted me to come, to beg her to forgive my sin.

She's out.

Mother.

Ji Hyun has suffered a lot,

Please be gentle with her.

You look like you're suffering badly.

Sit down.

I'll leave after I hear what you have to say.

Alright.

I didn't want a long conversation with you either.

Dong Wook wanted me to plead with you,

He wanted me to beg your forgiveness,

No matter how much I've suffered in this life,

I have not begged the heavens, not even once.

He must have gone crazy.

But I...

Since my son told me to do this,

I'll do it.

If I had done anything wrong towards you in the past,

please forgive me.

But, Dong Wook and you are not destined to be together.

You should know that by now.

You.

You shouldn't let so many of us worry for you.

You should marry quickly into the Shin family.

My Dong Wook,

In his current state, he might escape from the army tomorrow.

How precious is this son to me!

Do you want to destroy his future?

Once you join the Shin family, he will let go of you.

So, what you meant...

That you came here,

To beg me, not according to what Dong Wook wants,

But you're here to hit another nail into my heart?

How can you do this to me?

Until the very end, only your child is precious...

Until the very end, only your child is precious!

Yes.

A mother thinking for her child is the right thing to do.

I look down on you, that's the truth.

But for you to end up like this, don't blame me.

No. For me to end up like this,

it's something you've hoped for since a long time ago.

So how can you tell me not to blame you?!

My Dong Wook's path and your path is not the same, I told you that a long time ago.

I've told you a thousand times!

Yes. You said that a thousand times, a million times!

If I could dig out my heart for you to see,

Lee Dong Wook's mother,

since childhood days, she said I was a child of unknown descent,

the number of nails you've nailed into my heart, must be into the thousands already.

That's it. Now, give up on my Dong Wook.

No, I won't.

I won't. I won't do as you say! Also...

The hurts inflicted upon me by Lee Dong Wook's mother,

I will definitely let you know what it is like.

Don't be stubborn, just accept your fate!

If you really love Dong Wook,

Quickly marry into the Shin family and leave him alone!

That should be the best for you and Dong Wook.

Dong Wook's lifelong task is to judge the Shin family, isn't it?

But you want me to live over there?

- Yes. - Why?

Isn't it enough to be in my current state now?

You're here... to kill me, right?

Do you want me to die in front of you so you'd be happy?

Mother, the nails you've nailed into this heart of mine,

this deep, unceasing pain,

someday, I'll return it all to you.

Remember this, I will surely return it to you.

Wang Gun has set out.

According to plan, it will be flattened tonight.

Seems like there's going to be a good show.

It's Kim Tae Sun's trap.

The ones whom the President can trust, are just the two of us, no one else.

Since you're being recognized, you should exhibit your true worth.

I don't believe in destiny.

I will resist destiny and live, Hyung.

What we need is a daughter-in-law who can develop Tae Sung.

So long as I stand out as a shield,

The Lee Dong Chul brothers cannot do anything to Tae Sung.

For the sake of your own ambition, you're a hunting dog who can even bind his own heart.

Who can trust you?

It's Shin Tae Hwan.

I'll give you proof to destroy him thoroughly.

You have to live as a servant to the gamblers?

You want to speak through your fists as a human rubbish?

Don't appear in front of Dong Wook!
