Episode 51
I saw today's paper.
It appears I'm in for a really difficult time.
If I leave things as they are, I may lose the major construction contract.
Looks like we'll need to blow open Guk Dae Hwa's slush fund ties buried in Lichtenstein.
What good is it to cripple an aging tiger?
Lee Dong Chul has the actual power.
We need to take out Lee Dong Chul.
It's been a while since I've met someone with a kindred mind.
Since we are thinking alike...
If you are able to eliminate Lee Dong Chul,
I'll hand you whatever you want.
Lee Dong Chul's Achilles' heel is Guk Young Ran.
Just leave it to me.
I'll produce results that Guk Dae Hwa's slush fund can't even compare to.
- I'm here. - Mm. Good.
Episode 51
You're President Lee Jung Chul's son?
Dong Chul.
Yes.
Why don't you have him take over the casino work?
And get him a good number of workers.
You have to do well.
How did my father die?
They've invited Saudi Arabia Cabinet Minister Ju Taek Seong
and a Dae Hwa Group representative to dinner.
You escort Young Ran.
Meet the construction firm's president
and secure a bid.
Yes.
My father, even vomiting blood, knows only money, doesn't he?
And that daughter, when he's sick, just gets made up and goes to a party.
Just go.
I have some things to talk about with my friend Wang Gun here.
Go on.
Don't worry about it, Ji Hyun.
No matter what anyone says, you did a big thing for Tae Sung.
Look at the power we gained with the Iran contract.
Cabinet Minister Ju Taek Seong not staying at our hotel
means he's shunning our family.
I know very well you don't want to go to the dinner,
but let's do all that we can.
Lee Dong Chul has hit our weak spot,
but there's still hope.
Be firm.
If we lose this contract...
what will happen?
This Shin Tae Hwan isn't going to just take it without a fight.
You just show them that Tae Sung is a strong as ever.
Think of Tae Ho.
You're up to it, right?
Don't worry.
Just stick next to me.
So, that bum is going to keep getting in our way to the very end.
He's come as the Dae Hwa construction representative tonight.
Lee Dong Chul.
Whenever you open your mouth, you prattle about my evil ways,
but you're a more evil sort of opportunist.
You peer covetingly at Guk Dae Hwa's position,
and you finally get your way after living as a loyal dog for so long.
Your life's goal,
that dream of crippling this Shin Tae Hwan and the Tae Sung Group,
you're using all your might to make it happen.
That's right.
That last part is correct.
That crippling Tae Sung and destroying Shin Tae Hwan is Lee Dong Chul's goal in life.
Chairman Shin Tae Hwan.
Let me tell you an interesting story.
When a boat is sinking, they say the rats know first, and try to escape.
So, how about it?
Are you getting a premonition of Tae Sung's destruction and ruin?
So you've become the successor to the great Guk Dae Hwa, and fear nothing.
I wonder how long a position built from black money will last.
Wait and see. Who is destroyed first.
Let's go, Ji Hyun.
Dong Chul Oppa.
How can you be like this to even me.
Kim Ji Hyun,
in lobbying for an Iran contract,
was willing to sell even her body, says the press.
Ji Hyun.
While you remain with Tae Sung,
I'm worried about how much you're going to continue to change.
And so?
Take Tae Ho and come out.
If you really love Tae Ho and want to raise him well,
take him and go back to your place.
My place?
Where would that be?
With Tae Ho as his mother, with Tae Ho's father as his wife.
Easy to say.
Don't worry about my place.
Can't you drop your obsession with Tae Sung now?
At least for Dong Wook's sake?
You've become the great Guk Dae Hwa's successor.
So, what else do you want?
Is it nagging at you, an achievement built on black money?
- Ji Hyun. - Achievement built on black money?
Does it nag at you too?
I worried about you... working there.
But... as soon as you become successor,
your true colors come out.
You shake out the corruption in your opponent's business
in order to get the bid.
While working with the casino's black money,
you may get hurt in a big way someday.
Since you, yourself, talk about the corruption in the business,
there must definitely be corruption within Tae Sung.
And since you have a most ridiculously distorted view,
I feel I need to show you how to receive a valuation purely on skill.
Ms. Guk Young Ran.
- Let me just say one more thing. - That's enough, Grace.
Are you aware that the money spent at our casino by a foreigner in one day
amounts to exporting 4 televisions, 76 semiconductor chips?
What do you mean black money?
It's an unlimited industry.
At some point, when you return to your rightful place, I'll explain it nicely.
It's a shame that no matter how I try to look upon it well, I can't seem to.
I thought she was a clever woman,
but she speaks with a harsh prejudice.
That's enough, quit it.
Let's go.
We've closed for the day.
Mother.
Aigoo. Dong Wook.
That's right, that's right. I wasn't sure, but it is.
I came because I felt I should at least see your face.
That's right. You did the right thing.
I couldn't stay put.
My entire life, today has been father's memorial.
That's right. Go on inside. They're all waiting.
Mother, I won't be able to participate in the ceremony.
Mother, you know too well...
I bleed the blood of father's enemy.
Dong Wook.
I was afraid if I didn't come,
you would feel... as if a hot coal was on your chest.
That's why I came.
Yes, yes, you did right.
Oh, and...
Please accept this.
It's late, but please use this to set the ceremony table.
For father's memorial, I'm afraid this is all I can do.
Dong Wook.
All right. I understand.
I'll do that.
Thanks.
I'll leave now.
Dong Wook.
Won't you see your brother before you go?
No, I'll leave now before he comes.
Dong Wook.
You know your brother, right?
You know your brother's heart, right?
No matter what anyone says, your brother does not want to lose you.
Your mother knows.
So don't fight with your brother.
No, now, we can't avoid it.
Hyung has become Guk Dae Hwa's successor and has gone back to the casino.
What are you talking about?
What do you mean successor?
Casino?
What I was fearing has become reality.
Mother.
I lost you, and a brother who was a father to me.
And I've become alone.
Being a special investigations prosecutor
has been my one source of strength.
But now, people are telling me to leave that position.
They can't believe a man could haul in his older brother.
It's not so.
Your brother is not one to block your path.
There's gotta be some other explanation.
Chairman Guk is dying,
and to protect his daughter from the parasites,
he's thrown me away.
To protect that lousy love,
he's made me into the enemy.
It may be that hyung sees me as Shin Tae Hwan's son.
Now, to hyung, I must be just his enemy's son.
But I'm going to become cold, too.
Because whether or not he's my brother,
he can't avoid the judgment of the law.
Aigoo. You can't do that, Dong Wook.
Not that.
Stay healthy.
Dong Wook. Dong Wook.
What's the problem.
Yeah?
Don't leave Grace alone.
Let's go.
Where are they from?
Jeju Island, Pusan and even Kyungju have joined forces.
Are they Kang Tae Yeong's boys? Where is he right now?
At the Samjin Hotel sauna.
We got word from the guy we planted to watch Kang Tae Yeong.
Yeah? Let's go.
This way.
Excuse us!
Excuse us.
Hong Seo!
What is this?
What are you?
We're just going to borrow your car.
- Get in, get in. - Hey you!
Here, we'll just borrow it for an hour. Thanks
You can't do this.
Look here!
Drive!
Thank you.
Hey, look here!
Maybe I should just sell produce.
Do you even know how much a head costs?
I'd just take what they pay.
We'd lose everything if we counted on you.
Sorry.
You must be cold.
Thanks.
It's okay.
Hey, drive carefully.
Even if I get ruined, it'd be nice to have more days like this.
What is this?!
What...
Director Kang.
What are you trying to do?
Huh?
D-d-director Kang.
Is Dong Chul not able to come?
Please wait, Auntie.
That's right. After all, what is today?
And it's the first time Myung Hun is participating.
There's no way he would miss this.
It's the first day
our lost son is coming before you,
but what are we to do?
What are we to do with our Dong Wook and Dong Chul?
Mother.
Mother, I'm home.
See, of course. Dong Chul has come.
I'm sorry I'm late.
What has you so busy that you're even late on a day like this?
I'm sorry.
- I'll hurry up and change. - Hurry up.
Father.
It's Myung Hun.
Because of a dreadful fate,
he's only just arrived before you.
Father.
Myung Hun is married,
and has a child,
who's absolutely beautiful.
Your grandson's name is Tae Ho.
Next year, I'll be sure and bring him.
He's your first grandchild, after all.
Father.
Dong Wook...
No... he'll be back next year.
Please wait, Father.
You aren't sleeping?
Dong Wook came and left.
Dong Wook?
You...
Did you really go back to the casino?
Are Dong Wook's words true?
Mother.
You were like one person.
But it's not anyone else.
It's you who are holding him back.
Is it because Dong Wook is Shin Tae Hwan's son?
No, Mother.
Then, is it what he said?
Is it because of a woman?
Mother.
Please don't worry.
There won't be anything for Dong Wook to worry about.
Soon, I'll be able to wrap things up and get out of there.
I won't do anything to embarrass Dong Wook. Don't worry.
There's already word
that they want Dong Wook to quit.
Why are you doing this, why?
If you stay there,
you die, and Dong Wook dies too.
Even though Dong Wook is Shin Tae Hwan's son,
he's my child, and lived as your little brother.
We need to embrace him.
Why are you doing this? What will you do?
That guy is Jack from the Macau organization, responsible for all of Korea.
Attention!
Welcome! Welcome!
What the hell are you talking about?!
Director Hwang got attacked?
I think they were trying to eliminate Guk Young Ran,
and got blindsided by Lee Dong Chul.
What?
I think he left the inauguration, and went after Guk Young Ran.
It's Chairman Shin Tae Hwan.
Send him in.
Send him in.
Excuse me, Chairman.
Don't let this upset you.
Chairman.
My situation has become this.
We busted into Guk Young Ran's house
and were ambushed by Lee Dong Chul.
It's a relief it's only as bad as it is.
That spiteful bastard Lee Dong Chul.
After he became Guk Dae Hwa's successor,
his first act as successor was to put you in this state.
Messing with me is like
digging one's own grave.
Chairman.
Have you thought of a method?
Ahh, he's my other self.
Don't worry.
After all,
a declaration of conscience would be a good method.
That would be a big gamble for me.
I'd be sticking a knife in the casinos I have acquired over the years,
and walking the path of a traitor.
No, just think of it as the path to a cleaner
and more secure position than that dirty position of successor.
All the corruption, law evasion, political bribery,
you expose them to the world,
and make a declaration of conscience.
You'd be able to get nationwide support.
Chairman Shin Tae Hwan.
Let's speak frankly.
If I make a declaration of conscience,
then Shin Tae Hwan's national hero,
Lee Dong Wook, wouldn't he be the one to receive nationwide support?
That's why the Tae Sung house is offering 50%, isn't it?
For me, this is the largest gamble of my lifetime.
- If anything goes wrong... - I've bet my life on it, too.
Prosecutor Lee Dong Wook is my son.
What father would deny his son anything?
Lee Dong Wook is looking at his future greatness, and will be a national hero.
Thank you. Thank you.
Then, I, Guk Young Ran, speaking on behalf of Guk Dae Hwa,
would like to introduce Dae Hwa Group's Vice Chairman, Lee Dong Chul.
Thank you.
I'm Lee Dong Chul.
All of us gathered here today are one family.
All of the obstacles we faced, whether from domestic groups or overseas,
we will forget all of the past,
and from today, we will start... anew.
Going forward, all of Dae Hwa Group's profits
will be distributed fairly among you, our family.
And we will work to make our flagship casino enterprise an ethical one.
And one that will attract foreign income
through the development of clearer and more transparent operations.
While Lee Dong Wook was investigating Guk Dae Hwa's slush fund,
he was blocked by an alliance of forces.
Start by helping me with that problem.
If I help you with that problem,
you're saying that Prosecutor Lee Dong Wook becomes Korea's di Pietro prosecutor.
That's right.
Then...
Let's take care of first things first.
I understand.
I will pass over an apple crate in the underground parking lot.
Escort him down.
Yes.
Take care of yourself.
Chairman Shin Tae Hwan.
Don't forget what you said about half of Tae Sung's house.
I'll say again, that I work as much as I'm given.
This way.
What's going on?
This way, this way.
We're from the National Tax Administration.
Please stop what you're doing for a moment
and cooperate with our investigation.
Tae Sung Hotel.
Is everything okay?
You know everything, so why are you asking?!
As you predicted, the National Tax Administration came in
and in a blink, they took everything!
Whose fault is this?
They know everything because of who?!
Ji Hyun.
I'm just sorry that you're becoming Shin Tae Hwan's scapegoat.
This is my work... it has nothing to do with Shin Tae Hwan!
So are you saying that you'll take on everything that Shin Tae Hwan has done?
You and Dong Chul oppa started this to destroy me!
Ji Hyun. Listen to me carefully.
The tax investigation is Guk Dae Hwa's game.
You can't ever win.
Don't get agitated, and just simply accept it this time.
Whose fault is it that this is happening to me?
It's because of the leaked report on Dong Chul oppa's side,
and you're telling me not to get agitated and accept it without a fight?!
If the tax investigation leads to prosecution,
you may have to take the fall for everything Shin Tae Hwan has done.
I'm worried about that.
You're worried about me?
You've already foreseen everything, and you say you're worried about me?!
Ji Hyun.
Don't ever trust Shin Tae Hwan.
So you're the villain, and now my hero.
What do you expect me to do at this point?!
Don't ever call me again.
There are many people who can help me besides you!
Got it?!
Ji Hyun.
What's going on?
Are they using your aggressive Saudi bribes
as a reason to investigate Tae Sung Hotel?
It's Dong Chul oppa's work.
To avenge his father,
he's charging in, stepping on me first.
On top of that, Myung Hun has joined him.
You...
You believe that Myung Hun could do that to you?
Before all of this, he foresaw all that is happening to me now.
He sees everything that's going to happen to me!
I can't forgive him.
Either of them.
Why are you getting angry with the wrong people?
If there were no tax issues, what would be the problem?
So... are you saying the Tae Sung Hotel you've been managing
is also riddled with corrupt, illegal activities, is that why you're so scared?!
There's no business that doesn't produce dust when shaken.
What?
You...
are truly like him.
You are truly a lot like Shin Tae Hwan.
Don't say that. It would be the same if the chairman had lived.
There is no group that's 100% clean.
What the hell are you talking about?
How dare you stand in front of me,
blathering about the late Chairman Oh...
Even when the Chairman was alive,
you know that there was never a time when they were 100% clean.
Oh my.
How dare you say those things to me?
You...
Speak frankly.
Is it possible
that you were dreaming of building a business that surpassed even Shin Tae Hwan?
I've seen that in your face for a while now.
I saw in you an ambition that could drive you one day to take Tae Sung!
Mother!
Did you think that Shin Tae Hwan would back you that much?
If that was your dream, it was an outrageous one.
I can already see that end.
Director...
Aigoo.
Congratulations.
He manages the hotel operations in Pusan.
A pleasure.
Excuse me.
What?
I'll be right back.
Look forward to meeting you again.
Ki Seup?
Yes.
Hwang Kyu Taek is about to take off somewhere to make a declaration of conscience.
A declaration of conscience?
Yes, Shin Tae Hwan came by and paid him off.
I think they are intending to expose corruption within Dae Hwa Group.
In any case, be careful and stay safe.
I understand.
Okay.
He's the Pusan casino manager.
Choi Hak Seong.
He's the Kyungju casino manager.
Sometime earlier, he dragged a native into the casino and brought on public criticism.
Please take a look at this.
As I mentioned before, this is Jack.
He's someone I know well from my time in Miami.
He was wanted as a suspect for all the smuggling in the southeast,
but slipped away because there was no evidence.
He's causing quite a headache for Interpol as well.
I think we have a real opportunity to surpass expectations.
What happens if the new casino head Lee Dong Chul sent for him?
I think we need to keep a close watch on this fellow Jack.
Prosecutor Lee Dong Wook.
Chief Prosecutor.
What are you doing here?
Turn on the TV. Hurry.
The Jejudo casino manager has called a press conference
to make a declaration of conscience.
There's a report that there will be something about Chairman Guk's slush fund.
Excuse me?
Looks like the heavens are helping us, no... helping Prosecutor Lee Dong Wook.
Dae Hwa Group's Chairman Guk Dae Hwa today
announced a man named Lee Dong Chul as his successor.
This man named Lee Dong Chul,
as Guk Dae Hwa's right hand man,
is a character that is involved in all kinds of corruption.
I, as the group's second ranking official,
have decided I cannot tolerate it anymore,
and have come here today.
Firstly, I will tell you that Chairman Guk's overseas casino
is an operation to launder foreign currency.
The foreign slush fund...
A man that's worked under you for ten-plus years can't do that.
Don't get agitated.
Dong Chul has probably expected at least that much.
...exposed the slush fund that Guk Dae Hwa has tried to hide.
Last question, who is the "young prosecutor" you mention?
Is it Seoul Special Investigations Prosecutor Lee Dong Wook?
Yes, that's right, Prosecutor Lee Dong Wook.
Prosecutor Lee Dong Wook told me what no one else yet...
Prosecutor Lee Dong Wook.
Go bring in this man at once.
It's possible others will target him, so be careful.
Yes, I understand.
Grace...
I'm still holding
my hidden card.
I've got it in my hand.
Let go! Do you know who I am?
The declaration of conscience...
I didn't know about it! Please believe me.
Hwang Kyu Taek betrayed us, and made his own plan.
Us?
Who's us?
Who else is a traitor besides you?
I pledge my loyalty to you!
Traitors don't respond to talking, right?
I'll be loyal.
While I'm treating you like an adult, talk straight.
Since he's not in a position to make a declaration of conscience, there must have been a big draw.
You really don't know.
Yes, I know.
Then talk.
And then I'll judge whether you were sincere or not in your pledge of loyalty.
Yes.
I know that Tae Sung Group's Shin Tae Hwan is heavily backing him.
Really?
Then go and get evidence.
Excuse me?
There must be some evidence.
Right, right, he received cash. I'll bring it in.
Send him.
I pledge my loyalty, Hyungnim!
The money you lost in Los Vegas, the slush fund you hid in the casino,
illegal real estate, documented hidden overseas accounts.
That'll land you more than 20 years behind bars.
Prosecutor Lee Dong Wook!
Did you know that Hwang was planning to make a declaration of conscience?
Where are you going?
Please step aside. Don't block us.
Where are you going?
I'm going to bring Director Hwang Kyu Taek in safely.
Is it true you've been fiercely fighting with Dae Hwa Group's Chairman Guk Dae Hwa?
I will tell you all after the investigation.
Thank you.
I'm so thrilled that you send your good wishes to our Prosecutor Lee Dong Wook.
I will send my wife up to the Prime Minister's residence at some point.
Really?
Of course.
If our Prosecutor Lee Dong Wook marries the Prime Minister's daughter,
that would truly be a reason for national celebration.
Of course, of course.
Ahh, is that so?
I understand.
Goodbye.
Do you know how many calls I've gotten?
I can't continue to do nothing about this much longer.
I think you'll have to meet them at least once.
All the upper crust are coveting our Prosecutor Lee Dong Wook.
Is that all you called me for?
Is that all? Do you know how important this is?
I see it's finally time that Ji Hyun gets to see
exactly how scary Shin Tae Hwan really is.
What are you saying?
You pretended to want Ji Hyun and Dong Wook to get together.
But now you're looking all over at powerful marriage prospects.
Did I?
High society is calling, and I've no other option but to respond.
And Prosecutor Lee Dong Wook is rising up as a national hero,
don't we have to be focused on him as parents?
You've been calculating this about Prosecutor Lee Dong Wook from the beginning.
You've been using Ji Hyun with the ridiculous notion
that you would stand Lee Dong Wook in Myung Hun's place!
Stand Lee Dong Wook in Myung Hun's place?
What kind of nonsense is that?
Your love for Ji Hyun and Tae Ho, that was a lie, too.
It was your ulterior motive.
It's not an ulterior motive.
I truly loved them, and I still do.
However, since Prosecutor Lee Dong Wook has become our son,
the priorities have changed, that's all.
Really?
Then at some point, Ji Hyun and Tae Ho will likely become a burden to you.
Is that why, even though she's being investigated by the Tax Administration,
you're just watching as if it were someone else's problem?
Am I wrong?
I've already looked into the tax investigation. It's no big deal.
We just need to pay the missing taxes and a little on top, that's all.
Can you stand by that statement?
Of course.
If there're some off-color issues I'm aware of, then of course, I need to take responsibility.
However, if there are issues I'm not aware of,
then as the Hotel Director, naturally Ji Hyun needs to take responsibility, isn't that right?
You're intent on pushing Ji Hyun into the mire!
Don't worry about it.
I've already talked to them about getting Ji Hyun to slip out at some suitable level.
I know you.
You're going to toss over Ji Hyun in the end.
Ji Hyun is smarter than you know.
And frankly,
Ji Hyun probably knows quite well
that she's not right for our Prosecutor Lee Dong Wook,
who needs to meet a bride with a much better background than hers.
You are the devil!
A truly evil devil!
Fine. I'm the devil. Let's just say I'm the devil.
Now stop acting like a rebellious teenager.
And go see the Prime Minister's wife.
Show him that mothers love you haven't been able to give him all those years.
Ji Hyun.
What's breaking my heart
is that you're becoming Shin Tae Hwan's scapegoat.
If the tax investigation leads to prosecution,
you may have to take the fall for everything Shin Tae Hwan has done.
It's Mom.
C'mon Dad.
Mom!
Mom, Dad's here too.
Wow. I'm so happy that both Mom and Dad are here.
Dad! Hurry up!
Mom, I'm sorry.
I felt bad because you didn't let me go to Grandpa's memorial ceremony.
Okay. I understand.
Mom, let's go eat something tasty with Dad.
I'm hungry.
Dad, let's go eat something tasty with Mom.
I'm hungry.
Let's go, let's go.
Here.
Eat up, Tae Ho.
I'm on my way back from the National Tax Administration.
You know already, but if it's the National Tax Administration,
there're people there that have already known about Tae Sung.
I think it would be good idea to come out.
Someone said
that as the director,
I should naturally take responsibility.
You can't just sit still and take it.
Do you want me to make a media play like someone?
Or do some thug deed?
Your life managing your brother's stolen spoils
looks like it's smooth sailing.
I haven't felt at ease for even a day.
- Thinking of my family. - You have a new family, so why?
Don't whine in front of Tae Ho and me.
I...
Sorry, Tae Ho.
Sorry, Tae Ho.
How come you guys are always doing stuff you're sorry for?
My wish is for you guys to live loving each other.
What do I do for that to happen?
Tell me, please.
I'll wait in your car, Mom.
That means I'll be questioned at the prosecutor's office, right?
I know I've said it before, but Shin Tae Hwan's punishment...
Don't take it for him.
How do you know?
Because he's that kind of person.
Don't trust Dong Wook either.
Anything that jeopardizes his honor,
he won't do.
How do you know so much to make that kind of judgment?
I know. It will work out that way.
What's the reason you singled me out
and instigated this investigation?
I already told you.
- You seem righteous and trustworthy... - Didn't you make a declaration of conscience?
Speak frankly.
Isn't it that you have good fortune?
This case will make you famous in this country.
Tell me who were the recipients of Guk Dae Hwa's slush fund.
Chairman Guk gave the current second-ranking prosecutor Kim Soon Taek,
under the pretext of a home loan,
in 3 different installments, this much from the slush fund.
And...
The previous head of the Service Training Institute,
as his friend for over 20 years,
received money in the guise of land payments.
And received concessions from the casino.
And regarding the previous administration...
This is the line from Guk Dae Hwa to all the political figures
that received bribes in the guise of political contributions.
Ruling Party Eu Yun Su, Lee Kyu Myeong, Baik Jin Seok.
Opposition Party Choi Dong Chan, Oh Ho Seok,
the previous Minister of Finance, Song Eun Young,
Haji Bank Chairman Jung Sung Soon, Song Weon Bank Chairman Shin Jae Ho,
Sunset Securities' Choi Seung Won.
[Headline: Korea's Pietro Prosecutor Lee Dong Wook]
[Headline: The Prosecutor Who Brought Citizens Refreshing Relief, Lee Dong Wook ]
These documents outline the recipients who received contributions from Chairman Guk's slush fund.
I think each prosecutor can follow up on the investigation for five.
The file that's currently in your hands
is like a time bomb that can turn the entire country upside down.
Therefore, no matter what comes out of our meetings,
until we come out with a formal announcement, not one word is to be leaked out.
Now, let's all put in our best.
Yes!
Fine.
Thank you. Yes.
- Yes it is. - No, no.
Thank you, yes.
What's all the racket?
They're calls cheering you on.
The law students are after your autograph.
It's the birth of a national star.
All right now, enough joking.
From now on, we have a lot of work to do.
Just a moment.
Seoul Prosecutor's Office.
Dong Wook, it's me.
Oh, hi.
Do you have some time tonight?
I'm kind of busy.
I have something to consult you about.
I'm sorry, but I don't think I can today.
It's important.
I'm sorry Ji Hyun, but right now I'm too busy to even talk on the phone.
I have to go into a meeting, so I'll call you later.
See you.
Dong Wook...
I see the economic situation in Asia as very worrisome.
If the intelligence is actually from a casino VIP,
the extent is extremely serious.
It's possible that soon our country will suffer hardship.
To prepare for the worst, we won't make any new investments.
Let's save as much cash as possible and maximize our liquidity.
And for the time being, our operations
will center around the heads and operate responsibly.
Operate responsibly?
I'm saying the heads without skill... will have to turn in their resignations.
And starting tomorrow, I will review your operations reports.
Please include an audit report.
Please give me more accurate information than what is provided annually to Korea Bank.
And please support the computerized system managed by the government administration.
Ever since Hwang Kyu Taek made his declaration of conscience,
the situation at the casinos is incredibly bad.
Merely being in business is hard enough.
What you're asking for,
honestly, isn't it too much?
I think that times of hardship like this, are opportunities.
Isn't it true that it it's hard to survive without clean, transparent management?
This declaration of conscience by Director Hwang
will become a great launching pad to reinventing ourselves.
And lastly, I have one more thing to say.
From here on out,
if anyone betrays our Dae Hwa Group, I will absolutely not forgive him.
Anyone who betrays our family
will be dealt his punishment without exception.
Take heed.
Where is this?
Home, Dad.
But we need to go do the Arirang dance.
To dance once more with you... that's your father's wish.
When you're all well. Dad, when you're all well.
This is Lee Dong Chul.
It's Prosecutor Lee Dong Wook.
Right.
You've received Guk Dae Hwa's summons, right?
It's tomorrow.
Lee Dong Wook.
Right now, Chairman Guk's health is precarious,
and it was my understanding that the summons issue be handled by the attorneys.
You know it's a case that the country is focused on, don't you?
It is not an issue you can avoid because of personal matters.
Prosecutor Lee Dong Wook.
Chairman Guk is not long for his last breath.
I see that talking is not getting through to you.
I will have to come directly tomorrow
and take him by force.
Please be prepared.
I'm Prosecutor Lee Dong Wook from Seoul Special Investigations,
and I've come to take Chairman Guk by force.
Before you take him by force, just give me 5 minutes.
What kind of dog crap is this?
Shin Tae Hwan is using you and starting to fill a scary ambition in you!
Kim Ji Hyun, do you know what this is?
It is a record of a bribe offered to the then Administrations Chief of Staff Park.
Why did you send her to the prosecutor's office without an attorney?
Don't touch Ji Hyun or Tae Ho.
What are you doing here?
It's a summons. For Guk Young Ran.
Don't touch Young Ran.
I can forgive everything, but that one thing I can't.
