Damn it. Hee-sik.

Agent Gang was caught
by the Russian bodyguard.

What?

Jeez, that startled me.

What the hell?

Hey, Gang Nam…

Hey!

Gang Nam-soon!

Stop!

I said stop!

Hey!

Is this for real?

Forget Black Widow.

She's Sadako from The Ring.

So this was your grand plan?

Stealing the whole computer?

Yeah.

And here I thought
you had some brilliant master plan.

You know you got caught, right?

I got caught and then some.

Don't worry though.

I wore a disguise for a very good reason.

Could I be more thorough? I'm the best.

No, you're not.

Give me your hand.

Why did I let you go in there alone?

I only have myself to blame.

Pavel.

The Russian mafia group
that trained Ryu Si-o.

I hear it runs a vast drug network.

If that's the case,

their drug operations would run
on a scale beyond our imagination.

Gan I-sik.

While you look into that computer,
I'll dig into their connections.

Come here.

Some lousy ghost you are.

So what happened
to your daughter afterward?

In Kenya, I mean.

What happened after she bought
the diplomat's burned-down residence?

Tell me already.

Why does that pique your interest?

Please tell me.

I can't watch TV dramas

because I can't stand cliffhangers.

You really should learn
to be more patient.

Joong-gan, please.

My Jun-hee,
who has a trendy name despite his age.

You win.

After knocking down the burned residence,

she had people
build a new house on its land.

- Ansu?
- Yeah?

Thirsty?

- Yeah, I'm so thirsty.
- Water.

All right. Thank you so much.

What on earth?

That spot of land
turned out to be an oil deposit.

From then on,

she began raking in money
like nobody's business.

Her story is more dramatic
than any story I've heard of.

- But that's not the end of it!
- What?

Please finish the story!

Dad?

You're heading to Korea?

Where have you been,

and what have you been up to
all this time?

All right.

Let me know when you're arriving

once you've booked your flight.

I'll send someone to the airport.

Sure.

"On the verge of reaching out
toward the climax…"

Hey, Geum-ju.

Dad…

just called.

Right, Dad called.

Did you say "Dad"?

He's coming to Korea.

Hold on.

Where was he and what has he been up to?

He was in Tibet

being a guru or whatever it was called.

I didn't ask for details.

I feel faint.

This is too much.

Geum-ju,

it's good that he's alive,

but why do I feel so nervous
all of a sudden?

What about Mom?

She'll be known as a cheater.

Her current relationship is burning hot
like a boiler on high heat.

What do we do?

What do you mean?

As if you need to ask that.

You.

Don't even think about
breathing a word of this to Mom.

A word.

Dad?

Dad…

I'm done caring about what others think.

If people tell me to act my age,

I'll treat you even better, Joong-gan,

for the whole world to see.

Oh, Jun-hee.

That seems terrifying.

What the hell?

Ma'am, we've been in line all along.

You must've forgotten.

It's all right.

My grandma has been having trouble
with her memory as well.

- Look here.
- Hey.

We were first in line.

Why do old people
want to ride this anyway?

You should watch your blood pressure.

Wait.

Let's not quarrel with them
and get on a different ride.

Sweetie,

I won't quarrel with them.
Don't you worry.

What the…

Hey!

Hey.

- When did he get there?
- Hey, are you okay?

Sweetie, let's skip these rides

and do something more classic.

- Sorry?
- "Catch me if you can."

But instead,

I'm coming to catch you!

Joong-gan, don't run down
the middle of the path!

You'll hurt yourself!

No way! I'm running down the middle!

Nam-in.

You'd look really amazing
if you lost a little more weight.

Why don't you take another pill?

Just one more.

Just one.

Losers won't get to eat

and will end up starving to death.

Knock me over when I give you the signal.

You haven't had food in a while.

What's your name?

Binbin.

EPISODE 9
THE ROOT OF VICE

I'm guessing you didn't know,

but Lee Myung-hee
attacked Nam-soon at Doogo.

Mom, did you ask for me?

Nam-soon,

I heard…

that Hwa-ja nearly got you injured.

Are you all right?

Yeah.

Where is she right now?

Why?

Answer me.

Why did you do it?

Because I hated her.

If she hadn't shown up…

I could've stayed as your daughter.

Gang Nam-soon stole…

everything from me.

Do you blame the world?

Do you also blame God?

Then make God take your side.

Shall I tell you what I mean by that?

Repent from the heart.

Atone for your wrongs.

Then God,

as well as I…

will forgive you.

Myung-hee.

Try living an honest life.

You can…

be my daughter as well.

LIST OF EXPORTS,
GLOBAL LOGISTICS MANAGEMENT

Hey, Ms. Baek.

What items does Doogo ship abroad?

There are buyers connected to
the international market

who do business with Doogo, right?

Stop talking to me like I'm your peer.

But you're younger than me.

Doesn't that give me the right to do so?

What?

You're obviously younger than I am.

Anyone could tell that.

Ms. Baek was born in 1980.

She's middle-aged.

Who are you to reveal one's age,

sir?

That's crazy.

I thought you were younger than me.

Stop that.

A computer from Mr. Ryu's office
was stolen.

Secure all of your team's files.

Secure files…

Security thinks someone hacked
the security camera system.

All of yesterday's footage was erased,

and recovering it will be difficult.

I checked where Kyle said
the culprit landed,

but it was a blind spot.

There's a camera
at the intersection though,

so I requested the footage.

I'll keep tracking the leads.

Failing to guard the office

is the same as failing to protect me.

Didn't I constantly remind you

to secure the office at all times?

I apologize.

I apologize.

Who could've stolen my computer?

Who dared to sneak into my office?

I want to know

who truly bankrolls Doogo.

Not the shareholders on the list,

but the one who bankrolls the company.

You destroyed all the bearer certificates
related to Doogo,

didn't you?

Yes, sir.

You wanted the files read and destroyed
the day they were shared.

We've been doing as ordered.

It's as clean as a whistle.

He doesn't even watch porn.

I knew something seemed off
about this guy.

This is the only file on his computer.

Is he a sentimental mobster or what?

Are you kidding me?

Nam-soon may be right.

I doubt he founded a company,
issued its own cryptocurrency,

and expanded globally
just to reign over Korea.

His real objective could've always been
to take over the international scene.

He's expanding the playing field

since there's more than enough
to go around in Korea.

If he were distributing them
through regular channels,

he wouldn't need to keep encrypted data.

Why bother when the drugs
aren't detectable anyway?

Just a second.

He always goes off on his own.

Goodness, Hee-ja!

What's up?

I'm at work right now.

"Hee-ja"?

Whatever.

We found nothing on Ryu Si-o's computer.

What? I practically spoon-fed it to you!

How could you…

have gotten nothing?

What now?

What should we do?

Are you sure nothing's on it?

It was such a big computer.

The corporate relations team you're on

- manages international deals, right?
- Yeah.

Let's look into that.

Okay.

My investigation is heading
in that direction too.

Don't steal another computer

and just get us a list this time around.

There's a good chance
the operation is being run openly.

I see we're on the same page.

Nice.

This…

is handmade in the literal sense.

Everything is better with the human touch.

You know how it is.

Potato pancakes taste better
when you grate the potatoes.

I crushed some beans
to give you a helping hand.

Should I keep going?

It's okay.

Joong-gan,

you should give
these beautiful hands a rest.

Oh, you.

But I find that
it's a good stress reliever.

By the way,

Mr. Gang hasn't called
or shown up for work.

Ms. Baek.

Ms. Baek.

Ms. Baek.

How sweet of you.

I'm terribly sorry.

I made that mistake
because you looked so young.

It's understandable.

We all make mistakes in life.

Ms. Baek,

I want to do well at my job
and get recognition.

That's why I want to know
what items Doogo ships abroad.

No.

That's off-limits for new hires.

But Si-o told me to learn the ropes
as soon as possible.

If I don't, I'll get the boot.

Still, that's a no.

WILL DOOGO'S GLOBAL EXPANSION
BE A SUCCESS?

THE SECRET TO CEO RYU SI-O'S
SALES OF 40 MILLION DOLLARS

Forty million dollars?

What could've driven the sales
of a non-manufacturing business?

How much is 40 million dollars?

Around 40… No, 50 billion won.

Something's definitely going on
at this place.

You know Heritage Club's client list
Agent Gang got us?

Even the Commissioner General was on it.

No way.

I hear he'll go into politics
when his term ends this year.

I bet he needed some solid connections.

The political circle
has long been trying to get him in office.

I'm going to check out Heritage Club.

There will be leads there as well.

Where's the team leader?

He's helping the Busan DIU out.

Hold on.

How will you gain access to Heritage?

It's not some random club in Gangnam.

Do you have connections?

As for connections…

I sure do.

It's party time.

Here are the plate numbers of the cars
owned by Ms. Hwang and her companies.

None have been around Doogo.

Describe who you saw.

The person was in a white gown

and was wearing a wig
to look like a ghost.

In terms of height…

they were about…

About as tall as her.

Hwang Geum-ju's daughter.

She was lost and then found.

And she's strong.

Yes, sir.

Have you checked Tsetseg's résumé?

Yes, she's here on a H-1 visa,

and the name on her passport
is Khan Tsetseg.

- Should I dig deeper?
- No.

I'll do it myself.

You can…

be my daughter as well.

Ms. Lee Myung-hee, you have a visitor.

Relax.

I'm not here regarding your fake ID.

Gang Nam-soon.

You know who she is, don't you?

If you tell me everything,

I'll help keep you out of prison.

As in what?

An impostor of Hwang Geum-ju's daughter
must know some things.

Is Tsetseg…

her real daughter?

Is Tsetseg…

Gang Nam-soon?

You wanted to kill the real daughter
after she resurfaced.

No.

She's not Gang Nam-soon.

I haven't seen her
at any of the strength contests.

Have you seen
Hwang Geum-ju's real daughter?

Tell me the truth,

or you might have to pay…

with your life.

Yes,

I've seen her before.

Tsetseg…

isn't her.

The real daughter

isn't fluent in Korean.

Is what you said

the truth?

Why would I risk my life

and lie for a nobody like Tsetseg?

If you're done, I'll get going.

Then why did you try to kill her?

You tried to stab her.

She talked down to me.

I told her not to,

but she wouldn't stop.

I loathe people who talk down to me.

If she were Gang Nam-soon,

I would've killed her ages ago.

All right.

You may head back in.

Here are photos of Pavel
and his organization.

Pavel.

Pavel is the Russian mafia group

formed in 1954
by the Hungarian gangster Tagore Pavel.

It started off as a criminal group dealing
in drugs, prostitution, and gambling.

But that changed
when Sabaki took over in the '80s.

He was a Yemeni orphan
who became a white-collar worker

after graduating from the prestigious
University of Kent.

As soon as he took over Pavel,
he dived into the hotel business.

Since then,

Pavel has become the predominant
mafia group involved in casinos.

It became a powerhouse
in the black money market

and started fostering white-collar members
based on that success.

Recently, a powerful heir
has appeared on the scene.

Code name, Nozh.

A person yet to be identified.

Nozh?

That's the Russian word for knife.

How did you know that?

I run a pawnshop, remember?

I've bought and sold
many old Russian swords.

Sabaki was indeed a genius,

but he was frequently ill.

That must be why they reverted to choosing
a typical gangster as the heir.

Are all members of Pavel orphans?

Yes.

Orphans are kidnapped or imported

and trained as human weapons

under a rigorous system.

Are you okay?

They jumped down from there and ran off.

A jump like that should've killed them,

but they just disappeared.

The security cameras didn't work either.

But I know what I saw.

It was a ghost with the most hideous face.

I don't know why,
but I somehow feel offended

even though I don't understand you.

Get on my back.

What are you on about?

Get on my back.

Are you being serious?

Here.

You're obviously stronger,

so why did you take the beating
rather than fighting back?

I must obey him.

Why would you protect someone like him?

You must know that Ryu Si-o does drugs.

Do you also take them?

No, I don't.

Why not?

My job is to protect the boss.

That's some professionalism.

How cool of you. I respect that.

The CEO uses the drug?

But most drug lords
steer clear of their own products.

But how is he staying unaffected?

Others wound up dead.

Where are you?

I called because we need to go somewhere.

Kyle isn't in the best shape today,

so I'll act as your bodyguard.

Sure.

How is your Korean this good?

It was my goal to come to Korea.

So I studied hard to master Korean.

Why did you want to come here?

To marry a Korean man.

- Let's go.
- Sure.

Careful.

Place them down.

This is the Director of New Media at TGV,

a company that will soon be my subsidiary.

I brought him here
since he might become a member.

I can personally vouch for him.

Hello,

I'm Jamie Choi.

It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Choi.

This way, please.

Hello.

I'm Hwang Geum-ju.

I'm Hillary.

It's a pleasure to meet you.

Likewise.

You're a pretty one.

Thank you.

Your beauty is mesmerizing, Ms. Hwang.

She's the lobbyist
who'll officially be aiding me.

I see.

This man here

has been advising me

in my acquisition of TGV,
the broadcasting company.

Allow me to introduce
Jamie Choi, the M&A expert.

Hello.

Hello.

I'm Jamie Choi.

Here, ma'am.

Don't be cheeky.

What can you do about it?

Well…

Please excuse me
while I go to the restroom.

Why didn't you tell me the VIP canceled?

I wasn't informed of it.

I just can't believe this mess.

I'll do better, ma'am.

DIRECTOR JUNG DAE-CHEOL

Young-tak, call me in ten seconds.

Excuse me.

Can I have the key to the room
Director Jung Dae-cheol was in?

May I ask what this is about?

He forgot his handkerchief.

Room keys cannot be received
on behalf of guests.

DIRECTOR JUNG DAE-CHEOL

Yes, Director Jung.

The handkerchief?

I was told you had to come in person.

- Would you like to talk to him?
- Just a second.

Here you go, sir.

- Thank you.
- No problem.

- Hello, sir.
- What was that about?

He asked for the key to the room
Director Jung Dae-cheol was in.

The director left his lens cloth.

Stop.

Director Jung doesn't wear glasses.

Who are you?

Would he be looking for this
if this was an ordinary lens cloth?

He wipes something else with it.

Something precious.

As in what?

What could be so precious?

His golf irons.

Director Jung does indeed
take golf very seriously.

So you know.

You know your clients well.

What now?

See me after you're done today.

We have somewhere to go.

The device has been planted.

I've been curious.

Which powerhouse could be
pulling the strings behind Doogo?

Is it Doogo you're curious about…

or me?

Whatever it is you want to find out,

you won't be able to get it from me.

If you think you can beat me,

give it a shot.

Do you think you can
blow off our wager so easily?

A mere three-year-old company
hit a market value

of nearly two trillion won
without accruing any debt.

Isn't it natural for me
to wonder how all of that was possible?

I'm a businesswoman, after all.

Is your company funded
by a Russian mafia group…

by the name of Pavel?

Does having the mafia behind you

make you feel invincible?

You said you wanted to be a game changer.

You can never become one.

You are a destroyer.

You need to stop right here.

If you don't, you--

You are out of line,

Ms. Hwang.

One shouldn't get emotional
when doing business.

You're right.

Was I emotional?

I apologize if I offended anyone.

In any case,

I stand by what I said.

Si-o,

are you okay?

Hwang Geum-ju.

She grates on my nerves.

Enough to make me want to kill her.

I'll head out first.

Okay. Shoo.

Where are we going?

You're from Mongolia, right?

I bet you haven't seen the sea before.

I'm taking you to see it.

We'll talk while enjoying the view.

How sweet of you. Let's go.

Hey, Mom.

Hey.

I'll be accepting my award
at the police agency later

and need someone to take photos.

You want me to take them?

Jun-hee needs to tend to the café,

so be at the police agency by 3 p.m.

Where are you right now?

At the hospital.

I'm here for Geum-dong's endoscopy.

Only a parasite would explain
his listlessness despite eating well.

Mom, I…

Fine.

As if I wasn't busy enough.

Head to Gold Blue

and then to the police agency.

Yes, ma'am.

Mr. Hwang,

you may leave after 30 minutes.

Dad?

What the hell?

Dad, I missed you.

I know you've been out of it,

but watch what you're saying.

Dad.

I heard about

your soul-searching in Tibet,

- Why you--
- and you coming home tomorrow.

Dad.

But…

Mom has a new man in her life.

Dad,

you've been jilted.

BRAVE CITIZEN AWARD CEREMONY

Thank you.

- Congratulations.
- Thank you.

No, tell them I can't be there in person.

I'm busy.

- Congratulations.
- Thank you.

Thank you so much.

Ms. Gil Joong-gan, congrats!

Look here and smile.

We need to talk.

Sure.

I'm proud of you, Ms. Gil.

Congrats.

Congratulations on being awarded
as a brave citizen.

Hey, I need to confirm something.

Be honest with me.

Otherwise, you and I
will be having a joint funeral.

Why are you acting all melodramatic again?

- What is it?
- Your dad.

Is your dad

coming to Korea?

Answer me.

Yes.

When?

Tomorrow.

During the day.

Mom, what… Hold on.

- Mom, please.
- Oh, no.

No!

He can't come back!

How dare he?

That damn bastard!

Please remember
you just won the Brave Citizen Award!

Mom?

My goodness.

Mom.

Mom?

Mom.

Mom.

I can't believe this.

Mr. Choi, bring the car over.

Ms. Gil just passed out.

Call Dr. Choi. All right.

Mom?

I like this place.

What did you want to talk about?

No matter how much I think about it,

I just don't get it.

I need to see for myself
how you managed to cozy up to him.

That man has a heart of stone.

How the hell did you win him over?

Where are you going?

I thought you wanted to talk?

She needs absolute rest.

Nam-in has been acting weird lately.

He rarely leaves his room
and doesn't eat much.

Where is he at the moment?

He went out to see a friend for a change.

I hear he hasn't been at the café lately.

What's going on with him?

Is he seeing someone?

I'll be relieved if he is.

But he's barely eating.

He only lives on water.

Drinking lots of water
is essential for weight loss.

Unbelievable!

Aren't you worried about your child?

Are you trying to start another fight?

Tell me.

Why is Nam-soon working
a delivery job at such a place,

- and Nam-in--
- My dad

will arrive in Korea tomorrow.

What?

Jun-hee.

Will you trust me
no matter what happens to us?

I…

will make sure nothing happens to you,

so please stay by my side. All right?

It's me.

I'll pick your dad up at the airport.

You stay back.

I'll handle this.

Okay.

Yes, that's between those two.

They'll sort things out by themselves.

Welcome home.

Nam-soon!

Mom, how could you
use that tone with Ryu Si-o?

You're one to talk
after butting in on our conversation.

I butted in to stop you
from causing more trouble.

You should've stuck to
talking about investments

and not brought up Pavel.

But that was my moment.

When doing business or fighting others,

I attack at an unexpected moment.

A preemptive strike.

Mom, Ryu Si-o is more dangerous
than you think.

He shouldn't be dealt with that way.

Is this you

talking back to your mother?

Yes!

Stop it.

You two are going to
settle this with words, right?

It makes me nervous
since you're both strong.

I may be strong,
but I would never hit her, Dad.

I know that, but what I meant was--

Who knew I'd live to see this day?

My daughter is rebelling against me.

You're holding your ground
and challenging me.

You have no idea

how much I envied my friends
who argued with their daughters.

Anyway, Mom,

don't do that again.

Please.

Sure.

Are you pleased to see me
put down by our daughter?

Yes.

No, of course not.

Is your company funded
by a Russian mafia group

by the name of Pavel?

Ms. Hwang.

I…

was taking some time to relax.

I'd expect no less.

So what…

brings you here today?

You know Ryu Si-o, don't you?

Ryu Si-o?

Who may that be?

Where…

Where did you get this photo?

Tell me the truth.

- You--
- Are you stalking me?

Of course not.

Where did you get this photo?

Hold on, this--

Tell me where you got this.

Why are you getting worked up?

- You're--
- Tell me or get out!

- What--
- Leave before I'll call security.

Are you kicking me out again?

- Why are you tearing that?
- Get out!

- Why did you tear--
- Leave already!

What the…

That was mine, you know.

Banish Ms. Hwang
from our premises immediately.

What?

Banish me?

Hold on. You're banishing me?

Hey, you. Mr. Bread.

Answer me, damn it!

Mr. Bread!

Answer me already!

Mr. Bread!

Joong-gan!

Joong-gan, my love!

- You're here.
- Have you been well?

You haven't changed one bit.

I did a lot of meditation in Tibet.

And what conclusion did you reach?

I've decided to be your devoted husband
until the day I die.

So you've accepted
that you will die, right?

- What?
- Then,

we'll start with that.

He went flying!

- Oh, no.
- No way.

I'm only punishing
my irresponsible husband

who bailed on his family ten years ago.

Please mind your own business.

Don't interfere
with someone else's family matters.

Shouldn't we call 911?

I think we need to call an ambulance.

It's fine. I'll push him myself.

- What's going on?
- Goodness.

- Oh, no.
- What's going on?

- Is he dead?
- He did go flying.

Nam-in!

Nam-in.

Nam-in, look at me!

Nam-in!

It's me, your dad!

I need you to kill someone.

You scared me.

Is surprising people your thing?

Ms. Baek, what skin products do you use?

Your skin is flawless.

Oh, please.

But what's this?

CTR? CTG?

Goodness.

You shouldn't be reading this.

They're codes for our export products.

Ms. Baek, I'm also a Doogo Woman.

We're family,

and that means we should even know
how many pairs of underwear the other has.

I have to learn the ropes
as fast as possible.

Down to our underwear?

That's a bit excessive.

Is there a certain item
that only Mr. Ryu manages?

Is that the reason for all this secrecy?

Of course.

What does "CT" mean?

The code for all our
export products starts with CT.

I see.

What's the code for the item
handled by Mr. Ryu personally?

- I can't tell you that.
- What's going on here?

Are you done invoicing 4885?

Yes, sir.

They'll be shipped out tomorrow.

Get lost.

The new hire shouldn't be lurking around.

- Leave already!
- Okay, fine!

I'll leave, okay?

There's no need to yell.

Go already!

Is the ice cream that good?

Come to my office.

The person you called is not available.
Please leave a message…

KANG HEE-SIK

The person you called is not available.
Please leave a message…

You called for me?

Can you kill someone?

Surely someone who lived in Mongolia

should be able to handle that much.

What are you getting at?

Hwang Geum-ju.

Can you kill her for my sake?

No need to be so startled.

Don't worry.

She's already dead.

STRONG GIRL NAM-SOON

Ms. Hwang.
You should've been more careful.

Just because you want to kill someone
doesn't mean you should.

That woman gets on my nerves.

How dare you go after my mom?

I will thoroughly crush you to bits.

Joong-gan, let me take care of everything.

I cannot give up on you.

This is Nam-in's weight-loss pill.
Something's off about it.

Can you analyze what it's made of?

Isn't that a global shipment?

Why do you need to know that?

CTA4885 will be shipped out tomorrow.

You'll cover Agent Gang's escape route.

I'll take the truck.

Babe, can you help me?

What happened on the way
from the warehouse to the port?

An item went missing.

Remember how the team leader
was helping the Busan DIU out?

He never got there.

I left him messages,
but he hasn't called back.

It was as if he knew
that Nam-soon was Tsetseg.

Mr. Ryu's been looking for you.

Why do you think I asked you here?

- And here I thought you were on my side.
- Damn it, get your hands off her!
