(in this drama are fictitious.)

(Episode 11)

Is anyone home?

Are you there, Mr. Yoon?

Who is it?

You know how to speak?

Wait. Hold on.

Wait. Let's talk.

Is Mr. Yoon inside?

Hello?

Hello?

Why are you looking for my father?

I want to meet a survivor...

of the collapse 20 years ago...

and ask them directly about the situation.

My father became disabled from that accident.

Because of the trauma, he still can't talk properly.

Also,

he doesn't remember anything about that accident.

I'm sorry I can't help.

Well, there's nothing we can do.

At the café in Taeil's office, why did you...

Why did I pretend to be deaf?

If VP An steps down soon,

what will happen to us?

I want everything you have on Han Je Kyun.

No one was careful around my father...

once he became deaf.

I used that a bit.

My real job...

is to secretly give VP Han the information...

I see and hear in the café.

Depending on how it is used and on who,

information becomes money and power.

That was Han Je Kyun's intention...

on opening a café in the office.

I graduated from school thanks to Taeil Scholarship Foundation.

This is how Jisan Bank looks this morning.

Starting from the opening time of 9am,

many people have gathered.

In the morning, there were mostly elderly people...

who don't have to go into work.

But starting lunchtime, there were many younger people...

that looked to be in their 20s or 30s.

This was Reporter Kim So Eun.

(Jisan Bank)

Three days?

Three days from now,

we won't have money to give to people...

who want to withdraw their money?

Three days is the maximum.

Whether it's 3,000 or 5,000 dollars,

how about we set a limit to the withdrawal amounts?

We'd be advertising that we don't have money.

I'm just worried about customers who come to withdraw their money...

leaving empty handed.

It definitely felt like things were calming down.

Since this is urgent, shouldn't we sell our government bonds?

(Government bond: Bonds issued by government organizations)

Among our investments,

those are the most liquid.

(Different from bonds issued by regular companies)

Hi, Ms. Jin.

Where are you now?

Is something wrong? What's up with your voice?

The BIS ratio fell under eight percent.

It's subject to sale now.

What should we do now?

My dad and I...

("Jisan Bank at Risk, Customers Battling to Withdraw Funds")

("Experts say, 'No way to tell how long Jisan Bank will last.'")

He used a bank run to make the BIS ratio go under eight percent.

How impressive.

If Han Je Kyun gets Jisan Bank,

he'll do a restructuring first.

It'll only be a matter of time...

before Han Je Kyun controls this nation's economy.

Do you think Dad knew that this would happen?

He worked with VP Han for such a long time.

I told you before...

that someone other than my parents raised me, right?

Yes.

It was Mr. Jang of Haebit Construction.

Haebit Construction?

The company that closed down after being liquidated?

Yes.

That was the first task I worked on after entering Taeil Accounting.

I remember it because it was my first field job.

That person raised you?

He was basically like a father to me,

but he passed away...

because of Han Je Kyun.

Because he wanted Haebit Construction's patent,

he did that to the company.

That's why you kept looking for the fund operator...

of HK Private Equity.

That was the reason why I became an accountant...

and came to Taeil Accounting.

I can't stand by and watch...

as Han Je Kyun takes over Jisan Bank.

Just as much as you.

Did you two have a fight?

What are you talking about?

Can't you see these soju bottles?

Something's up.

Ms. Jin.

Ms. Jin. Are you okay?

There's no hope.

If I asked Yeo Jin to take her, she'll hit me again, right?

Yes. She said she'd throw you in a holding cell...

if you were to do that again.

If they dump their government bonds at a low price,

it'll make things worse for the bank.

It seems President Jin...

has lost his judgement.

That must mean...

Jisan Bank is in a very...

desperate situation.

They're in big trouble.

What do the members of the FSC...

think about Jisan Bank's...

bank run situation?

If this doesn't just end with Jisan Bank...

and causes a chain reaction with other banks,

it'll only be a matter of time before there is another IMF crisis.

We can't just go ahead...

and use government funds either.

A breakthrough has to come...

from a completely different way of thinking.

Don't you think so?

There is a private equity fund...

looking for a new investment.

If you're interested,

I can provide more details at the next meeting...

and bring up the idea. How does that sound?

We'd appreciate that.

What?

Oh, my.

Are you free enough to be drinking like that?

That makes me not want to thank you for letting me sleep here.

I heard about Haebit Construction from Mr. Jang.

I heard what happened...

and what Han Je Kyun did to your father.

Help us stop VP Han Je Kyun from taking over...

Jisan Bank.

You're the managing director of HK Private Equity's Korea branch.

You're also the daughter...

of Haebit Construction's President Jang.

You have enough reasons to stop Han Je Kyun.

When Haebit Construction was struggling five years ago,

what did President Jin do?

Wasn't he a bystander?

What would you do if you were me?

What President Jin needs right now...

isn't a lovely daughter.

He needs a trustworthy...

and capable accountant.

If you want to fix this situation,

President Jin needs to make a decision first.

He needs to tell the world that things were wrong from the start.

Right now,

Dad doesn't seem like the person I used to know.

When a private equity fund and an accountant work together,

there's nothing in the world they can't do.

The person with money and the person with a cause are on the same side.

Who could fight against that?

So...

there's something we need to do.

They must be worried.

Some people never go through things like this their whole lives.

If people go to withdraw their money from Jisan Bank,

do they even have money to give them?

How can Jisan Bank not have any money?

It's not like banks have money piled up in their vaults.

They live off of loan-deposit margins.

They'd have to invest in this and that...

to pay people interest on their deposits and pay salaries.

I know.

We shouldn't just worry about it like this.

Let's do something that we can do too.

Us?

I am worried about Ms. Jin too,

but honestly, it makes no sense...

that a private equity is taking over a bank.

It's obvious what will happen.

A company that's perfectly fine one day can go bankrupt the next.

The subcontractors will also shut their doors,

and many will lose their jobs.

Many major companies will be acquired by foreign companies too.

There's no such thing as nationality for money,

but it is a bitter shame.

Will Jisan Bank's loan list become a hit list?

We should stop that from happening.

First, let's check the details of the sales process for the bank.

That way, we can come up with a plan for what to do at which step.

You must tend to your own garden.

It shows if the owner doesn't take care of it himself.

Even tending to a garden the size of your palm requires a lot of work.

You have to pull out weeds...

and catch pests too.

I've met you last time, Mr. Jang.

Is she also a junior at our accounting firm?

I'm Senior Associate Jin Yeon A, sir.

It's nice to meet you.

And who is this?

I apologize for the late greeting.

I'm Joyce Jang of HK Private Equity.

I came to see you because I had something to tell you about VP Han.

What has HK Private Equity come to see me...

with my accounting firm's accountants?

VP Han Je Kyun has broken the rule...

of not being allowed to hold concurrent positions...

and has been active as a manager of HK Private Equity.

Is that the truth?

And did you know about this too?

There's even evidence that he used the firm's insider information...

to manage the private equity as well.

We have proof for some of it too.

If this fact gets leaked outside the firm...

That can never happen.

Compared to what's about to happen soon,

this incident won't seem that big at all.

This is a national crisis.

And what does that mean?

I already knew that Mr. Jang didn't just join...

Taeil Accounting.

I only guessed that he had some reason behind it,

but I never knew he had experienced something like that.

Then you must know what protecting Jisan Bank from VP Han...

means to Jang Ho Woo as well.

And to you too, Director Han.

We've all decided to focus on the Jisan Bank case outside of work.

Ms. Jin, you should strengthen your resolve too.

Thank you.

As of now, the most certain and basic solution...

to protect Jisan Bank is...

to procure deposits.

It's not like money will rain down from the skies.

Where will we get all of that money right away?

Other banks.

What?

People won't keep money at home after withdrawing it...

from Jisan Bank during the bank run.

That money would've all been deposited to other banks.

That's why the other banks are quiet even when a bank run happens.

Jisan Bank's misfortunes are a golden opportunity for them.

Then if we can just get that money back...

Will the other banks give up that money willingly?

We have to make them give it up.

Han Seung Jo.

I get what you're saying,

and it does seem like a good idea.

Of course it won't be easy.

The key point of our suggestion is to give up an immediate profit...

and to share future risks.

Still, we have no choice.

If this is the only way to save Jisan Bank,

we have to try.

All right, then. Let's get moving.

Yes, sir.

I'm Son Hye Won from Taeil Accounting.

We worked on the task force for Haneul Construction together.

I sent you some material. Have you checked it?

Then could you put me in touch with someone else in charge?

Yes. I'll head inside right now.

If you listen carefully,

we don't expect your bank to come up with a deposit policy.

We want all banks to do a risk hedge.

(Risk Hedge: A preventative measure to reduce losses...)

(from unexpected risks, usually meaning diversified investments)

I'll explain it to you one more time.

(Lee Min Ha)

Why did an accountant from Taeil Accounting ask to see me?

I heard you were very close to Director Sim Hyung Woo,

the first scholarship recipient...

of Taeil Scholarship Foundation, where you are also a member.

Why are you bringing up the poor man who died in an unfortunate accident?

I don't know what you're trying to do,

but you'd better stop.

Hyung Woo isn't someone who should be treated this way.

I will never forgive you.

What if his death...

wasn't an accident but an incident?

What does that mean?

If I say it wasn't an unfortunate accident while checking inventory...

but an obvious murder,

you won't forgive that either, will you?

Do you have proof?

When Director Sim Hyung Woo died,

I was there as well.

I am the survivor...

as well as proof.

(Write email)

When will you be finished?

I still have a long way to go.

Why?

Don't ask.

I'm busy if I want to finish all of this.

You won't even eat or drink with us lately.

What's up with you?

Do you have to go this far?

- What? - I mean,

you can just let Korean reporters know.

Why do you have to let foreign reporters know too?

You never know.

We need someone who is out of Han Je Kyun's reach.

Someone has to let them know.

(Send)

Okay.

I'm done sending that out to the English-speaking world.

Make him send it in Chinese so we can eat sooner.

- What? - Gosh.

I have to translate this into Chinese, right?

Yes, that's right, but...

Scoot over.

Hey. What do you think he was doing while you became an accountant?

He couldn't even watch TV in the living room.

He's a smart guy.

I'm sure...

he can read and write pretty much everything in Chinese.

You can speak Japanese too, right?

Of course.

See? He can do it all.

(Jisan Bank)

Who is this?

I'm Jang Ho Woo from Taeil Accounting.

No matter how hard I try to convince you,

you don't listen to me.

Rather than the fact that Han Je Kyun is the manager...

of HK Private Equity,

you should know what he is doing to Jisan Bank...

and to you, President Jin.

What do you mean...

Han Je Kyun is after Jisan Bank.

From forcing you to buy an online P2P online loan company with debt...

to the bank run. Everything.

(P2P loan: Finding investors online and connecting lender and borrower)

Han Je Kyun has prepared this for a long time,

so you won't be able to avoid the crisis itself.

However,

there is still a way out.

(Jang Ho Woo)

Then I will see you soon, during the conference call...

- for the acquisition consultation. - Yes, good work.

Vice President.

Accountants Han Seung Jo, Jang Ho Woo, as well as some others,

seem to be acting strangely.

Okay.

Jang Ho Woo's current actions,

showing no movements.

Since this case isn't related to Jisan Bank's fundamentals,

I think we should ask Bank of Korea to increase the limit...

on the eligible collateral.

I'll check...

and look into similar cases in other countries.

Work with the secretary's office...

to organize the material...

(Director Han Seung Jo)

(Ji Soo)

(Han Seung Jo)

Mr. Jang.

Hi, Ms. Jung.

VP Han authorized this.

(Notice of Personnel Transfer)

I only just received it.

I'm basically...

being fired, right?

Don't worry.

With important issues related to personnel changes,

you get a one-month grace period.

Let's think of some solutions within that time.

I'm okay. This isn't unexpected.

First, I'll finish what I've been working on.

So,

have you found some ways to save Jisan Bank?

Once he passes the major shareholder screening,

VP Han Je Kyun will get Jisan Bank, right?

Father will be screened...

on whether he is ethical enough...

to own a bank?

Because banks...

are that important to citizens.

Can't we have some hope?

Even if HK Private Equity were to secure...

over 50 percent of Jisan Bank's shares,

the FSC could find out...

that HK Private Equity is an unethical organization.

You shouldn't expect anything of the FSC.

It's basically Han Je Kyun's.

- Thank you. - Eat up.

Okay. Cheers.

Out of the nine members of the FSC,

two are chosen by the head of the committee.

If you get the head on your side,

you get three people on your side.

And if you get two more,

you'll have a majority.

From the candidate selection for the head of the FSC...

to passing the hearing.

It was all your father's doing.

I didn't know he put so much work into this.

The FSC makes the final decision...

on transactions of buying and selling banks.

He needed someone who'd do as he wishes.

I should've found a solution sooner.

That's something I need to do.

I have a plan.

What is this? Do you even know where I'm going?

You're going to the FSC's major shareholder screening.

Because you're worried about Ji Soo.

- I am too. - Me too.

As you ordered, I took care of the FSC members.

(Jisan Bank Major Shareholder Screening)

(Main conference room)

What? Wasn't the screening supposed to be held here today?

Did the location or time change?

Did they not contact you?

The person you have reached is unavailable. Please leave...

What happened?

- Hi, Hyun. - The screening...

scheduled for today was cancelled.

It was postponed indefinitely.

It was postponed indefinitely?

Do you know something?

- I've never seen this before. - I'll call you back.

It was postponed?

Without contacting me, the person being assessed.

What happened?

I can't get in touch with anyone involved with the screening.

Even the directors.

I think they cancelled it on purpose to stop you...

from attending the meeting.

He beat us to the punch again.

If they indefinitely postponed the screening,

isn't that also bad for VP Han?

Because the ownership of the bank isn't being transferred.

Since he always has more than 50 percent of shares,

he could act like the owner if he tries.

Although it's temporary.

It'll be hard to keep waiting for the screening...

because there is a process.

Who are you worrying about right now?

I guess he's waiting for the right time.

The right time for VP Han?

It's not the right time now, but it will be later.

If no conditions need to change, it must be a person.

For example,

the person to be screened.

Joyce Jang?

(Resume, Kim Do Kyung, Resume, Jeon Hye Sun)

VP Han bought time until the next screening.

Time to hire a new managing director for the Korea branch...

that is more obedient to replace Joyce Jang.

Did you tell Ji Soo...

the real reason why VP Han...

postponed the screening?

I'll tell her today when I meet her.

Ji Soo must have something to prepare.

She can't go down like this.

She can't go down like this.

What VP Han needs most right now is time.

We can't give him that time.

Time.

For instance,

a surprise major shareholder screening.

Would that be possible?

This is Jang Ho Woo.

Well, then. I'll see you next time.

This is a video...

of me handing over the patent in exchange for a favour...

and related files.

(HK Private Equity Joyce Jang)

Let's meet right away.

(Certificate of Patent)

What is this rudeness?

I'm just getting started.

You shouldn't raise your voice already.

HK Private Equity's industrial capital...

makes up over 25 percent of its total capital.

Under current banking laws,

they cannot own Jisan Bank. You must all know that.

They got rid of some of their capital...

to get it below 25 percent...

by the paperwork submission date.

But you must also know that it's only temporary.

Without holding competitive bid, which is very common,

or publicly performing any due diligence,

you chose HK Private Equity from the start...

before beginning this process.

You must all know that as well.

You don't have to do this.

At tomorrow's major shareholder screening...

for HK Private Equity, we plan to pass...

No.

It's the opposite.

The opposite?

(Jisan Bank)

What's going on? It didn't work out?

As if it didn't.

You know the Jisan Bank people.

They're from Simin Bank.

I think all the other banks are represented.

It's almost a given...

that Jisan Bank now belongs to HK Private Equity.

What are we doing here?

What's the point?

You're right, but...

once HK Private Equity swallows up Jisan,

who do you think will be next?

Best Bank?

Hansol Bank?

It could be Simin or Dosung Bank.

It's just a matter of turn and time.

This is a crisis all your banks will face.

Private equity funds worldwide...

have seen how Jisan Bank went down.

I was scheduled for a screening...

to decide whether I could stay on as bank president.

I went out on a limb to take over a P2P online loan company,

and that caused...

the current Jisan Bank crisis.

The chain of events...

was set in motion a long time ago by HK Private Equity...

that intentionally targeted...

and approached Jisan Bank.

I brought this upon us all...

to satisfy my greed.

What's the background?

- What happens now? - We need details!

- Why did you come forward? - What's the plan?

(Jisan Bank Major Shareholder Screening)

We shall begin...

the major shareholder screening in order to sell Jisan Bank.

HK Private Equity's Korea representative.

Yes.

In the past 12 months, you have not been given a prison sentence.

Even after HK Private Equity takes over Jisan Bank,

you'll operate according to Korean laws and regulations, right?

Yes.

And naturally, you'll pay all the taxes?

Yes.

Mr. Han.

What's the fuss about?

The major shareholder screening...

is happening right now.

Say it again.

The major shareholder screening is happening right now.

Is there anything you'd like to say?

There are rumours surrounding HK Private Equity.

With information illegally obtained by lobbying,

they buy and sell companies recklessly and thoughtlessly.

Some call us a raider.

Those rumours are true.

We did so until now,

and even after purchasing Jisan Bank,

we plan to go on doing so.

Vote against it?

So that HK Private Equity can't take over Jisan Bank,

so that HK Private Equity doesn't pass the screening process,

according to law and principle,

make the right call.

That's my threat.

The result of the screening to decide HK Private Equity's...

eligibility as Jisan Bank's major shareholder is as follows.

They're unfit.

HK Private Equity did not pass the screening.

Your doing this...

will be bad for us all.

I didn't come this far without anticipating that.

I can always apply for another screening.

Whatever you do,

Jisan Bank will become mine.

No, you're wrong.

There will be no more major shareholder screenings.

Jisan Bank's BIS ratio is now a stable 8.4 percent,

so it's no longer up for sale.

That means...

you can never take over Jisan Bank.

(BIS ratio: 6.91 percent to 8.45 percent)

Bank run is a psychological issue.

It's a fight against fear and anxiety fuelled by lies...

that spreads like wildfire.

That's why it must be stopped early on.

Other than instilling trust, there's no other solution.

The public these days are savvy.

They won't believe us for no reason.

Then...

we must show them.

One danger, five alternatives.

A union of five existing banks.

I suggest a consortium.

(A consortium: A group created for a joint goal)

If a bank run happens at any one of the five banks,

the other four banks immediately...

send over their surplus funds.

Are you telling us...

to open accounts with other banks?

Yes.

To survive a bank run which shakes a bank to its roots,

immediate and unconditional cash inflow is a must.

If we give them time to bring up the BIS ratio,

if we help so they don't have to sell off their debts for cheap,

we won't have to witness a nonsensical situation in which...

a bank that survived a century goes down in three days.

Can you explain why I must let you off...

just because you're my son?

You'll have to sell all the shares you own.

The FSC will order you to do so,

but you're a VP who cannot own a bank,

so to you, they're just pieces of paper.

Well done, Dad.

It can't have been easy to pluck up the courage.

I'm too ashamed...

to face you now.

Don't say that.

I think the bank stuff worked out well.

Bye.

I think...

it's all done.

Thank you, sir.

The screening went well.

Good job.

Well done.

Now do you see...

what kind of person Han Je Kyun is?

And that there are things only you can do.

Let's start right away.

Yes, sir.

You want me to arrange the major shareholder screening?

This is...

something my grandson bought me.

You should have one.

Apparently, it's good for your health or something.

Well, I...

Goodness gracious.

Sure.

I've been worried about my blood sugar levels.

Thank you for sharing such a precious gift with me.

By the way,

are you really a professor?

What?

(Pride Diner)

- Congratulations. - Congratulations.

- Congratulations. - Congratulations.

Ms. Cheon Ja.

Do you see that accountant with the big eyes?

You think they all look pretty, don't you?

Yes, of course.

Gosh, Grandma. Look again.

That one with the long hair,

big eyes, and the pink outfit.

That accountant is the one that Ho Woo likes.

My Ho Woo likes someone?

Well, actually,

this is my grandma.

- Oh, I see. - Okay.

Ho Woo has always said he likes and respects you.

He asked me so much to give you lots of freebies.

All of a sudden? Me?

Eat your fill.

- Okay. - Thanks.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

Goodness.

What was that?

Why would you stop talking midway?

So?

Ho Woo took that person to Africa several times.

There were hearts in his eyes...

when he was looking at Yeon A.

The person Ho Woo likes is called Yeon A?

- In the pink? - No, wait...

Grandma.

- With the long hair? - Grandma.

- My goodness! How great is this? - Grandma, please...

My goodness!

Really?

Well, yes.

Gosh...

We'll enjoy the food!

- Nice! - Nice!

How is the project feasibility work coming along?

Well, most of the expenses are variable costs,

and there are barely any fixed costs.

So it's not hard to figure out the expenses.

But it's hard to get a sales estimate.

Then try separating the Ps and Qs.

And check some tourist attraction inflow rates in the area.

We're checking them right now. We've done an initial count.

But we've asked the Tax Department for their input just in case.

Yes, good job.

Then who's out at the site doing due diligence now?

Now that I'm here, I'm reminded of you, Director.

Why would you be thinking of me?

Enough with the nonsense. Take care of the person next to you.

I was worried about you.

I kept wondering if you were working hard or not.

Take care of yourself and have a bit of fun, okay?

Okay.

Don't you think there could be a tax cut from starting...

an agricultural corporation?

Right, there could be.

I think we should check that part too. Also...

Mr. Jang. Let's take a picture together.

But we came here to do due diligence.

Gosh, why are you playing hard to get? Let's just take one.

Oh, okay.

Here.

- Make a V. Yes. - Make a V?

You should smile.

Okay. I don't usually take a lot of pictures.

In 1, 2, 3.

I envy Ms. Jin.

They call it due diligence,

but she practically went out on a picnic to get some fresh air.

Do you envy her?

Should we say we would go instead?

You should go now before it's too late.

What?

I'll give the corporate card. You should eat some good food too.

Really?

Because of the Jisan Bank case,

you two couldn't even rest on weekends,

going to consortiums and all that.

Go and have some fun.

Then you should come with us too.

You worked the hardest out of all of us.

Gosh...

Right. Let's go together.

Do I look like I'd go somewhere like that?

I absolutely hate it.

So, that's...

- What are you writing down? - Oh, my gosh.

Can you find the answer by looking at this stuff?

You need to experience it firsthand.

What are you doing all lined up like this?

Follow me.

Gosh.

I thought you wouldn't show up, but you actually came.

Yes.

What? What are you looking at?

What is this?

Gosh, Ms. Jin. Look at the colour of the water.

It's so pretty.

Did you say you will confess?

In order to prove clearly...

that HK Private Equity doesn't have the right...

to acquire Jisan Bank later on,

I have no other way than for me to turn myself into the prosecution.

But still...

I am also responsible...

for HK Private Equity's illegal acts...

until now.

This was something I thought of since coming back to Korea.

Taking responsibility for things.

Now, it's Han Seung Jo's turn to wait.

What are we having for dinner today?

When did those two get so close?

Ji Soo will volunteer to be investigated by the prosecution.

Ji Soo said that?

That's the only way to make VP Han take responsibility.

That's expected of Jang Ji Soo, indeed.

Actually,

I have something to tell you too.

I don't think you'd need my permission for that.

(Aiding and abetting embezzlement, slush fund, fabricating ledgers,)

(corruption and solicitation, accounting fraud)

(Change in the company's type of business or primary business)

How badly has he twisted things around?

You'll have to follow the money, not the person, to find things.

I'd be grateful if you help me prove this,

but will you be okay?

He's still your father.

It's because he's my father.

Hello.

You're Reporter Bae Soo Hyun from "Fact Check," right?

Yes.

I tipped you off about the tabloid company before.

I'm Jang Ho Woo.

(Taeil Accounting, Jang Ho Woo)

I'm not someone sent by Han Je Kyun.

I'm the family member of Haebit Construction's President Jang In Ho,

whose autopsy report you fabricated.

(Autopsy Report)

I became an accountant because I had to know...

what had gone wrong.

And...

I came all the way here.

This is the last chance to put right...

what you did wrong.

("Korean Global Accounting Firm, Taeil, Under Investigation")

Seeing how you recognized it right away,

the one who let foreign press know about Han Je Kyun...

must've been you.

All right.

Thanks to what you did,

these global firms...

are asking Taeil for a statement...

and a solution.

Without proper follow-up actions,

they will take away our membership rights.

They're even threatening us too.

In order to maintain...

Taeil's current brand value,

you will have to accept these requests.

If the bank goes over to Han Je Kyun's hands,

we know exactly what he will do to this country.

We can't just sit by and watch that happen.

As an accountant of Taeil,

I must stop that from happening.

What exactly do you do right now?

I work as a barista at Taeil Accounting's in-office café.

I'm not actually deaf.

The reason...

why I ended up working in Taeil Accounting's café...

that is known for only employing deaf people...

was because of VP Han Je Kyun,

who wanted to control all information within the company.

How did you think to have a reporter...

from Taeil Scholarship Foundation interview the barista?

They're both people who were used and hurt by VP Han.

I thought they'd understand each other more than anyone.

(VP Han Je Kyun will be arrested.)

(Seoul Central Prosecutors' Office)

(Attached, Financial Statements, Nawon Holdings Inc.)

This is circumstantial and direct evidence that VP Han Je Kyun...

used and distributed fake news and tabloids to start the bank run.

He used Taeil Scholarship Fund, a private organization,

and he also used an outside company for distribution.

He used a paper company to pay them.

A paper company?

Han Je Kyun has something like that?

The reason I called for an emergency partners meeting...

is because of a shameful event between VP Han and Jisan Bank.

We need to gather and organize our opinions on this.

If so, I will assume you are all in agreement...

and propose a motion for the dismissal...

of VP Han Je Kyun of the advisory department.

As the dismissal of a director calls for a special shareholders' meeting,

we need the agreement of 75 percent of shareholders to hold a vote.

Instead of holding another meeting,

let's make a decision here and now.

(Notice of Dismissal of Director)

(Managing Director Shin Jun Ho)

Is it true that Han Je Kyun...

bribed politicians, journalists, and financial institution officials...

in order to acquire Jisan Bank?

Yes.

I delivered them myself.

I have detailed records...

on when and what I delivered to who.

You did turn yourself in,

but you are aware that you can also be penalized...

for this, right?

Yes.

I am aware of that.

Are you saying you received threats of arson and murder...

along with Mr. Sim Hyung Woo?

Yes.

From this person here?

Yes.

And all of this...

All of this...

was VP Han Je Kyun's doing.

They were ordered by VP Han...

That's that,

he was listening to us using the café this whole time.

He pushed them to commit accounting fraud. It's unbelievable.

He's supposed to be the vice president of our firm.

Manipulation of books for People's Entertainment.

Creation of a slush fund related to Haebit Construction.

Professional malpractice.

Violation of Foreign Exchange Transaction Act.

Accounting fraud.

If you're indicted for these things,

you won't be able to see the outside world for a while.

You seem so calm.

Is that so?

Of course, how many...

will you be able to prove?

I'm not sure.

It was not easy going up against...

an accountant with 30 years of experience.

Thanks to you, I went through a lot of trouble.

That's why...

I got someone's help.

(Sang Ah Group Slush Fund Details)

Mr. Han Seung Jo of Taeil Accounting.

He's also your son.

(Sang Ah Group Slush Fund Details)

(Sang Ah Shipping, Tangible Assets, Intangible Assets)

Because you turned yourself in, stopped a serious financial crime,

such as a bank being taken over, from happening,

and the fact that you cooperated well with the investigation,

your indictment was suspended.

However, further investigation could be carried out anytime.

I ask you to keep that in mind.

Ms. Son. How is the smart speaker valuation going?

The market isn't very active yet,

so it's a bit difficult to build projections.

There are foreign academic papers on market outlook.

How about we use the market size from those papers...

and assume market share will remain the same as before?

That's a good idea.

Should we wrap up here?

Oh, right. Mr. Jang.

It seemed some man came to see you in the lobby.

- Me? - Yes.

It would be abnormal if you weren't feeling sick now.

I would be so exhausted both mentally and physically.

My body is fine.

I just have a lot going on in my head.

I know. Let's talk later.

Who is it?

Who is it?

You're not feeling well. You shouldn't be drinking.

Gosh. I'm feeling fine.

I just took these out while I was cleaning.

The defendant is found guilty...

of illegally pushing the sale of a bank...

and of abusing his social status...

and knowledge in accounting...

to disrupt the nation's economy.

In accordance with the law...

on aggravated punishment for specific financial crimes,

Defendant Han Je Kyun...

is sentenced to ten years in prison.

(Numbers)

I figured you were looking for this.

Are you okay, or are you pretending to be okay?

Now that I've left Taeil,

you should move my position.

Is this Jaehan Holdings' transaction history?

Is this simply a slush fund they snuck out overseas?

I'm not the only one feeling that, right?

That's right. It's Han Je Kyun's account under a different name.

Congratulations on being pardoned, sir.

Are you saying all of his crimes were all reset?

Crimes that have been punished once...

cannot be legally punished again.

Did you take care of Jaehan Holdings?

There has been an issue you must be aware of.

It seems VP Han...

wasn't just sitting in prison.
