(Episode 15)

(Ministry of Economy and Finance)

Thank you.

Of course.

(Lee Hye Joon, Level-5, MOEF International Finance Bureau)

Chief Jo told me that it's on the very top shelf.

Can you please get that and bring it to me?

I heard the court issued a warrant.

I need it before the prosecution carries out a search and seizure.

(To my beloved son, Sun Kyu)

(To my beloved son, Sun Kyu)

(To my beloved son, Sun Kyu)

What's going to happen to Chief Jo?

What do you think the maximum penalty will be?

I heard they're going to cut off his pension.

They're even going to cut off his pension?

(To my beloved son, Sun Kyu)

What's going to happen to Chief Jo?

(Chae Yi Hun, Director General, MOEF International Finance Bureau)

What do you mean?

I heard that he could receive up to 15 years.

If he serves all those years, he'll be 60.

You could've protected him.

And what is the protection you think I could've provided?

Turn a blind eye and let him flee abroad?

Have the Interpol search for him...

only so that he comes back to Korea in handcuffs?

Let's say he got lucky though and didn't get caught.

He won't ever be able to return to Korea.

Whatever it may be. You could've done something!

Chief Jo is our colleague,

but he is also a civil servant who caused harm to this nation.

- But sir... - Chief Jo...

took responsibility for his own actions...

and made the best choice.

How can it be the best when he'll be imprisoned?

The choice was for his son.

This is the country his son lives in.

As his father,

what better choice...

could he have made?

I wonder who will also be held accountable for this.

Even Director Chae...

will have to be reprimanded.

Controlling the situation comes first.

Accountability comes after.

He persuaded Chief Jo...

to reveal the truth regarding Jungin Bank's BIS capital ratio.

Are you saying that Director Chae won't...

be held accountable for this?

What's more important...

is the manipulation of Jungin's BIS ratio...

and the illegal business and tax evasion...

of foreign speculative capital.

We must keep the latter from happening.

His accountability can wait.

It can be read as you not holding anyone responsible on this matter.

Is it because you trust Director Chae?

Do I trust him? Yes, I do.

I fully trust Director Chae.

Still, would the public accept the punishment...

of Chief Jo alone?

I'm glad you mentioned that.

I plan to look into other departments...

as well as the International Finance Bureau.

- You'll look into them? - Yes, with the cooperation...

of the Board of Audit and Inspection of Korea.

We will see if there are others like Chief Jo.

Heo Jae, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Economy and Finance,

announced his plan to look into other departments...

as well as the International Finance Bureau...

in regard to the recent bribe taken by one of its chiefs.

Meanwhile, even though the economy currently faces tough times,

through DPM Heo's strong leadership, next year or the year after...

Why aren't you answering my call?

Because it's obvious what you're going to say.

(Tina Bahama, Head of Bahama China, Eugene Han, Head of Bahama Korea)

You know what the company has to say about this, right?

But then you must know what I have to say about this too.

This is a warning.

We don't want this issue to gain any more public interest.

It ain't me who's making all the noise.

If you would shut up and let us do our job,

we could fix all of this.

- We could get rid of you. - I don't care.

When Jungin Bank's BIS ratio was swapped...

Greetings, everyone.

Let me make a statement first.

Never did I manipulate Jungin Bank's BIS capital ratio.

That is why it couldn't have been me...

who gave the document to Jo Hee Bong.

(Kim Man Young, Managing Partner of Young and Soo)

(Heo Hyeong, Managing Partner of Mijin Accounting Firm)

This stance of mine benefits you too, right?

It looks like Jo Hee Bong turned evidence in to the prosecution.

He said it was from you.

It won't be valid in court.

It's just his claim at best.

It's not valid as evidence?

No. There's no proof that he received the document from me.

- Are you sure? - I am.

Then the prosecution won't be able to verify Jo Hee Bong's story.

All they can charge you with is tax evasion.

The tax service could investigate...

on grounds of illegally hidden profit.

Remember that building in Banpo?

All our transactions go through the bank in Switzerland.

Exactly.

The transaction will be hard to track.

How the money was brought in...

depends on the ability of the parties involved anyway.

That's true but...

So now, we move onto the next step.

You people must protect me.

I will power through this issue within the legal boundaries.

Our law firm represented Bahama...

when it bought and then sold Jungin Bank.

The accounting firm that supervised the transaction...

helped with any tax issues.

The public is screaming tax evasion.

Representing Eugene Han of Bahama...

will be risky for us.

Just go back to the States.

No.

No?

The issue currently at hand is public sentiment?

We must also consider the legal issues we could face.

Major media outlets,

the National Assembly, Court of Korea,

the prosecution, and the National Tax Service.

We have someone in every one of those organizations.

- But sir... - Whether we choose...

to go forward or not...

is what matters, right?

- But the law... - Oh, please.

The law only applies to those who are weak.

Mr. Han, you made yourself clear today.

Consider us on board.

So we discussed where we stand then.

We should next discuss where Heo Jae stands...

in all of this.

Mr. Kook?

Oh, right.

DPM Heo...

seems to have shifted with his stance.

You're saying that he has begun...

to objectively acknowledge the reality.

- That's right. - Didn't he meet...

Daeryuk Group's chairman recently?

This is a man who has kept his distance...

with rich businessmen in case it leads to rumors.

That's right. But they enjoyed a meal...

and even some drinks.

Did you know that DPM Heo's the one...

who insisted we appoint Mr. Kook as our advisor?

He has always wanted...

to keep a friendly relationship with us.

I know him well.

He hasn't changed his stance at all.

He only does what he feels like doing.

We just happen to be on the same path right now.

So keeping him in check...

and naturally guiding him where we want him to go...

is key.

Then we either get him on our side or get rid of him...

if he gets in our way?

Is that it?

Why would we get rid of him...

when we can keep him on a short leash?

- A leash? - Yes, a leash.

Back in the day, we even molded the president of this nation.

DPM Heo must have multiple necks.

Everyone seems to have a leash on one.

Excuse me.

Hey, you called me later than expected.

I thought you'd call me faster.

Did you take the video...

that you sent me?

Why does that matter right now?

Why didn't you tell the police?

- You can do it now. - Eugene Han.

I'm giving you a chance to avenge your father's death.

- Okay? - You louse!

Send the lowlife Heo Jae to prison.

Do you think I'll do as you wish?

Why not?

You realized that making you destroy Heo Jae...

is part of my grand design.

What a dilemma.

If you abide by my plan, it'll hurt your pride...

as a Korean bureaucrat.

However, you can't let a murder go free.

This really is a dilemma.

I will kill you.

You can't kill me.

Yes.

I'll go to the police station myself.

It's a murder.

I'll tell you...

the details in person.

I'll bring the evidence.

(To my beloved son, Sun Kyu)

The DPM would like to see you.

(Han Sang Min, Level-5, FSC, International Finance Division)

I brought him while I was at the FSC...

since this is important.

Yes, sir.

It may be unusual for the DPM to call in level-fives...

to give assignments directly,

but I believe exceptions must be made...

as necessary.

Thank you, sir. I'll do my best.

You were very close to Jo Hee Bong, correct?

Recall everything he said and did with respect to Jungin Bank...

and write it all down.

Yes, sir.

- Ms. Lee. - Yes, sir?

You suspected Jungin Bank's BIS capital ratio was manipulated...

and initiated all of this.

That's correct.

Compare the BIS capital ratios...

from last year and the one received from Bahama...

- and summarize the differences. - Yes, sir.

Mr. Han. You will be the liaison between the FSC and the MOEF.

Provide them with the support they need.

Yes, sir.

Jo Hee Bong submitted evidence to the prosecutor,

but Eugene Han claims ignorance.

It won't be easy to prove their relationship.

Plus, the prosecutor on the case doesn't know much...

about economics.

It bothers me...

that Eugene Han is working with the law firm Young and Soo.

Thus, what the three of you are doing is very important.

Director Chae.

Yes, sir.

Use the report the received as the foundation...

to find direct evidence of the BIS capital ratio manipulation.

If you can't, create indirect...

or circumstantial evidence.

Then I'll submit them quietly to the prosecutor.

Wouldn't that be problematic legally...

What happened to the guy who wants to destroy Eugene Han?

Evidence of manipulation.

Illegal benefits obtained through the purchase and sale.

Find them all so we can convict them.

I have to go to the US soon, so Director Chae, you're in charge.

If you could resolve...

the automobile tariff issue with the US,

it would help the economy...

Does that question have anything to do with your duty at hand?

I'm sorry, I was just...

I'm sorry.

Did they name you as the counterpart?

- What do you mean? - Does it have to be you?

That's what I'm asking.

Yes, but why are you asking that?

They named Deputy Prime Minister Heo as the counterpart.

He wants to use you...

to screen everything to see if anything harmful to him...

will be submitted regarding the sale of Jungin.

I will make sure that you don't get harmed...

by what's about to happen.

Why does it have to be DPM Heo?

- What? - The meeting with the US.

Why do you keep asking that?

I think there were negotiations higher up.

- What? - Who knows?

With respect to the national credit rating crisis,

I'm sure there were influences on Wall Street...

by unknown powers,

but we must look at the root cause.

The root cause is...

Korea's lack of exports.

The sharp decline in exports, the plunging prices,

the retreat by foreign competition.

Insufficient exports led to the fall of the companies' credit ratings...

and worsened financial problems like exchange rates and interest rates.

And this has become our economy's Achilles heel.

You are correct.

That is why I'll say this bluntly.

We will assist you, Deputy Prime Minister Heo.

This is my pure patriotism.

- Thank you. - No one compares...

to DPM Heo when it comes to patriotism.

I've known him ever since he was young.

You're from the same hometown, right?

Yes.

He's the pride and joy of the Heo family.

We have high hopes for him.

You know that the American Secretary of the Treasury...

is his close friend from his Harvard days, right?

I do.

He worked very hard at getting this meeting scheduled.

I did not.

Daeryuk played a big part in making it happen.

You are too modest, sir.

Anyway, the inner circle of Korea expects great things from you,

Deputy Prime Minister Heo.

Good luck.

Thank you for meeting with me like this.

I will do my best for the nation's economy.

I promise to bring back good results.

The leader of Korea needs to understand economics.

I hear you have a great view...

on corporations.

Above all else,

I want to create an environment facilitating corporate investments.

That's right.

Look at real estate, which is an issue lately.

Corporations won't invest, so banks don't have anywhere to lend money.

It's because...

liquid assets are being poured into the real estate market.

The corporations need to play their parts.

After the IMF crisis,

the third-generation conglomerate owners...

only want to pursue safe routes.

It hurts that they didn't inherit their predecessors' aggressiveness.

It's not that they don't, they can't.

The government needs to let them do their thing.

But there are so many taxes.

I'm sure Deputy Prime Minister Heo will take care of that now.

And we must set the stage and help the best we can...

so that he can.

Let me put this on the record.

I am positive that Deputy Prime Minister Heo...

will be Korea's Erhard.

Erhard.

I'm willing to step up if you need, to help you get there.

I'm sure it'll help if we step in.

You know that.

I know he hasn't been the chairman for too long,

but he really was something back when he worked at the FSC.

He was always known to be strict when it comes to work.

I bet it'll only get worse from here.

He never takes a break.

Not a lot of people can work with a guy like him.

I give huge credit to Director Chae...

Shut it. Let's eat quietly.

To be honest,

there are times when I'm not very fond of the deputy prime minister.

But in this kind of situation, I feel like he really might play...

a crucial role in saving our economy...

Yi Hun.

There are two people I want to kill.

You don't need to kill them.

Everyone dies one way or another.

Why would you put yourself in that mess?

But I still want to kill them both.

Punch him!

Come on! Go! Nice!

Great job.

Hey, Soo Ho.

You're here.

Didn't you eat?

I heard you met Man Ok.

- As the fine dust levels... - Is she doing well?

keep getting worse,

the Ministry of Environment has decided...

to regulate the key factors of...

The government will take necessary measures...

until the speculative forces get rid of their expectations...

for a rise in exchange rates.

And we will also take strong measures...

regarding illegal short selling to prevent chaos...

- in the stock market. - What's going on?

- Did you short sell your stocks? - No.

If you did, you're in big trouble.

No, I didn't.

You're not lying, right?

My gosh.

Nice.

Soo Ho.

I'm thinking about buying some stocks.

Don't bother, you punk. What do you know?

I'm thinking about buying stocks related to the car industry.

I heard they're planning to develop hydrogen vehicles in the future.

Listen. The car industry is the most complicated one because we have...

custom issues with the US.

You're like a skinny guy with no muscles...

saying he wants to become a UFC fighter.

You know nothing about the economy and want to buy stocks?

You're a complete fool for wanting to start.

My gosh, just eat up.

You spat food everywhere. My gosh, seriously.

He tried to scout you himself?

Yes, when I went to visit him at the hospital.

Did he offer you a specific amount of money?

He offered me one million dollars.

- So what did you say? - I turned him down.

- Why? - What do you mean?

He threw his body to save you and got shot...

at the ASEAN Plus Conference.

It was very impressive.

On top of that, he even offered you...

a paycheck of one million dollars.

Everyone would think it's weird.

- Either you two have a connection, - There is no connection.

or there lies a possibility.

That's a very unfair presumption.

What do you think of Eugene Han?

Did you seriously just ask me that?

Don't you think you're being rude and speculative?

- Why? - That's a very personal question.

I'm asking you because it could be very dangerous...

to a civil servant who's dealing with our country's economy.

I see.

Then there really isn't anything for me to say to you.

I see.

Okay, I'm sorry.

- Are we done? - Yes.

Director Chae.

About the report I sent you last time...

I suggested that we should primarily issue...

500 million dollars via Green Bond instead of issuing...

1.5 billion dollars all at once.

I haven't reviewed it yet.

We don't have a lot of time since we also need to pick the lead manager.

I'll review it as soon as I can.

Is there something wrong?

I saw you last time in the emergency stairway.

It's something personal.

Hey, Ma Ri.

Eugene Han?

I'm almost done interviewing everyone in the IFB.

Thank you.

I couldn't find anyone who seemed suspicious.

But there is someone who could potentially...

get closer with Eugene Han of Bahama.

You mean Ms. Lee Hye Joon?

So you know.

You should keep an eye on her...

Even if...

they develop a personal relationship,

she's not someone who will cause any harm to our country.

But if you take a look at Chief Jo...

Ms. Lee is nothing like him.

You must be a very healthy man.

Once you're done with chemotherapy,

you'll easily be able to live up until you turn 100.

When flowers bloom in spring,

they gently sway as the wind blows.

Do you know how beautiful that is?

I never really got a chance to take a close look at flowers.

That means you've lived a meaningless life.

Let's go inside.

Is it because I'm dying that...

I wonder why I took life...

so seriously?

What are you talking about?

I learned that life isn't something that should be taken seriously.

You should stop...

giving yourself such a hard time.

It'll all feel very futile later on.

I plan not to live like that anymore.

I'm so exhausted...

of living such a difficult life.

I want to see the flowers sway as the wind blows in spring.

And when summer comes,

I want to take a long nap underneath a tree.

That's how I plan to live.

But don't live your life like it doesn't mean anything.

Overworking yourself and being diligent...

are two very different things.

Doing your best in life...

is a way to respect yourself.

Okay, I understand.

Sir.

I'll raise your precious chickens.

- You refused. - I'll do it, sir.

But why do you look so resolute as you tell me that?

Please help me.

Please teach me how to invest.

You're unbelievable.

You're Wall Street's legendary investor, Thom Browne K.

Will you stop embarrassing me?

- Stay still. - It's okay, Ms. Lee.

Kwak Dong Hyun.

And your English name is Thom Browne K.

You're Wall Street's legendary investor.

Yes, I'm Kwak Dong Hyun.

But I didn't know people called me that.

It's been way too long.

Now, I'm just a weak old man.

I've tried everything, you know.

But even when I think I have it in my hands,

the money just slips right through my fingers.

Sir, I wish to be rich.

- Stop it! - I...

- decline. - Sir,

please help me.

Go and look in the mirror.

Your eyes are red.

People like you steal the feed...

and steal the eggs.

No, sir.

I'm not like those people.

- Please leave. - But sir...

- Get out. - Give me a second.

- Stop. Just hold on a second! - Leave!

- Sir, please help me. - Get out!

- Hurry. - Please help me.

Stop it.

- Just hear me out. - You annoying jerk!

Now that we're apart, I feel bad for you at times,

so I tell myself not to treat you badly.

However, every time I see you, you make me sick.

- Man Ok. - Stay there.

Don't come any closer.

Just get out of my life.

Please. Just let me live my life without having to see you.

Is that too much to ask?

Please!

I leave on a plane tonight.

The US made a tough decision.

I guess they're desperate.

I plan to push my agenda forward...

while they're busy with the election.

This is the best time to negotiate a deal, right?

Do you think you'll be given the title you want...

once you get back?

I'll at least...

have a spot at the starting line.

You know very well...

that unless you have the greatest power,

you can't fix the structure of this economy.

During the ASEAN conference,

I, the leader of this nation's economy,

was humiliated on a global scale.

I will never let that slide.

The position will test your strengths and beliefs.

I will never waver.

I saw the recent interview you conducted with the press.

You promised economic growth of 3 to 4 percent...

within the year or the next. Is that still possible?

Raising a single chicken requires a lot of energy,

and most of all, time.

Fixing the structure from every angle...

and also having the economy grow? How can that be possible...

just because we have a change in leadership?

In order to build such an economy,

I need power.

Those blind promises people in your position spew?

The innocent public believes you.

They do.

The people don't believe everything they hear.

They only believe the words of the person they want to trust.

So? Your plan is to create an illusion for them to believe?

- That's not it. - Put the people first.

People like you,

who promise a specific amount of economic growth...

and only urge to push forward to meet those goals you set,

will only make you lose track of the disadvantaged.

The economy centers around people.

Vice Chairman Heo's proposal...

lacks the understanding of the economy, our country,

and our overall society.

He shows no affection for the people of his country.

And he has no human dignity.

Everything is just a means to achieve his goal.

All I give the people is an illusion?

Of course not.

That is not true at all.

Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Economy and Finance Heo Jae...

headed to the US to meet with the Secretary of the Treasury.

It has been said that DPM...

will meet with the secretary...

to intensely discuss the restriction of imports and tariff...

regarding the US-made vehicles...

according to Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act.

When he returns in four days' time,

he will announce the Washington Project...

which will paint the vision of Korea's economy.

("I Earn 400 Dollars a Day with High-frequency Trading")

Darn it.

(The jerk I will catch up with)

- Hello? - Get it!

Soo Ho, guess what?

The shares of the automobile company...

doubled!

You told me not to buy them,

but the price doubled.

Awesome!

What if I had listened to you and didn't buy the shares?

Soo Ho, thank you so much!

Sorry, I'm late.

All right.

I hear that Director Chae resigned.

- What? - The bosses tried to stop him.

The IFB won't have anyone leading it,

so they asked him to stay put until they appointed someone new.

The orders will come from above soon,

but until then, Chief Jo's place will remain vacant.

I will help in any way I can until then.

What we should first check is the currency swap with China.

Things will get hectic once China wraps up...

its Political Consultative Conference,

so let's hurry with the preparations.

- Mr. Park. - Yes?

- The thing I mentioned. - Sorry?

I told you to put together a report on what we discussed...

with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

But I already handed it over.

- To me? - Yes.

Before you signed off on it digitally,

you insisted on a hard copy so that you could sift through it.

I handed it over to you.

- When? - Sorry?

Well,

on the day Chief Jo was arrested by the prosecution,

Mr. Park printed out a copy...

and handed it to you on your way out.

See?

- Should I get you another copy? - No, it's fine.

I'm sure it's in my car or in my office.

So what's next on our agenda?

Right.

The Seoul International Economic Conference is coming up.

We need an outline until next week...

Did I leave it in my car?

Sir.

Yes?

I had a copy of my own.

Thank you.

And this.

This is the list of organizations that were nominated...

to issue green bonds when needed.

I put together an assessment of them.

Did I order this?

No, I put that together in case you'd be needing it.

I'm grateful, but there's no need to do...

anything like this.

I can manage my own tasks.

I've never seen you lose your strength before.

But right now,

you seem like you could crumble.

It's not my place to know...

about your personal relationships,

but please don't forget...

that you are a member of the IFB.

Why would you suddenly say that?

The questions asked by the Board of Audit?

They shouldn't have asked such...

They're allowed to ask you anything.

Still, it was inappropriate.

They violated my privacy.

Are you saying you're considering a relationship with Eugene Han?

Or are you and he already in a relationship?

Even after what happened to Chief Jo...

Why are you so narrow-minded?

- Narrow-minded? - Yes,

that's how you are.

Especially when it comes to Eugene Han...

As if you know anything.

Sir?

You know nothing.

(Eugene Han)

(Eugene Han)

Your call is being forwarded to voicemail.

(Lee Hye Joon)

This is so unfair.

Jo Hee Bong and I don't have a special relationship.

It's obvious why he held that press conference.

He was paid.

- He was paid? - They say it's a global era,

but the Korean government is pressuring, in various ways,

the foreign hedge funds here that are abiding by the laws.

Perhaps that's what it was.

The Korean government?

Specifically?

Like the director of MOEF, Director Chae Yi Hun.

Hello. Please give me a minute.

I think I gave you all the time I promised.

As you see, I have other appointments.

May I see you again?

Only if you will trust me and include what I saw in the news.

Even if you gave us an exclusive,

we will not print exactly what you say.

We must check the facts and screen everything.

- Then I'd need... - It was a pleasure.

I'll see you again.

- You didn't shut it down. - No.

Good. Things are going better than expected...

with the Prosecutors' Office.

You'll be able to work in Korea again without a problem.

I'm glad.

They won't get anything else from Chief Jo either.

You're saying I'm fine legally, right?

That's right.

That's perfect.

(Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office)

You're saying you received...

the manipulated BIS capital ratio from Eugene Han.

I'm asking if you have proof.

Listen. I received it from him...

and gave it directly to Seo Yang Woo.

What better proof can I have than my word?

Chief Jo.

Eugene Han, who you say gave it to you,

says he doesn't know you at all.

Darn it.

You must prove your relationship with him...

first and foremost right now.

Is there anyone else who can back your statement?

The bank president.

The president of Jungin Bank.

Do you mean Kang Won Hee?

Yes.

I gave the document I got from Eugene Han to Seo Yang Woo,

and he prepared the report based on that.

Mr. Kang knows about it all.

Really? Did Chief Jo really say that?

- Yes. - This is the first I've heard this.

(Kang Won Hee, President of Jungin Bank)

Mr. Seo had always...

written that report himself.

I didn't know it was manipulated.

Really?

Then...

Director Na Joon Pyo...

and Director Kook Kyung Min may know.

They were the ones who initially manipulated the BIS capital ratio.

What do you mean?

I did not.

I didn't manipulate it.

Jungin Bank gave us a fabricated stock assessment.

- Is that right? - Yes.

Listen. Sir.

I don't know about anything else,

but I'm certain that jerk Eugene Han from Bahama...

did control Jo Hee Bong.

I'm sure he got a lot of intel on the government from him.

I'm positive.

Eugene Han stated that he doesn't know Jo Hee Bong.

That's a lie. He's lying.

Then please testify to that in court.

I'll summon you as a witness.

- In court? - Yes.

- Me? - Yes.

Well... I'm just guessing that's their relationship.

I didn't see them personally.

So...

Well...

All of this...

is going against you.

- Hey. - Hey.

- Hello. - Hello.

Hello. What brings you here?

I'm here to see the DPM.

I need to revise some things from an interview.

Will it take long?

My friend went to jail.

We were questioned by auditors.

The auditor said...

he heard Jo Hee Bong liked and took care of me the most...

within the IFB, and asked if it was true.

When I heard that...

I got so angry.

I wondered which jerk said that.

I denied it. I said we weren't that close.

That he didn't take care of me much.

Know what's funnier?

After saying that,

when I received an assignment from another supervisor,

I was kissing up to him.

"Please be good to me."

Like some dog.

Why are you laughing?

- You're so human. - What?

Whenever I...

come to the Sejong complex, this is what I think.

It's like a great fort.

You know what a fort is, right?

Structures built in order to protect themselves from outsiders.

Do you mean the government complex feels like that to the people?

You're called civil servants, but in reality,

you reign over the people.

You call the people dogs and pigs.

That's not true.

There are more dogs and pigs in here when you think about it.

Well...

I know you'll go back to where you came from...

and do well even if I don't say anything,

but Mr. Park...

Most of the people who are part of an organization...

are probably the same as you.

You're selfish and cowardly to an extent.

Then you get ashamed at yourself for being that way.

You get swept away by life, and time passes. And you forget.

That's life.

Everyone lives like that.

I'm sorry.

- Don't be. - I'll do my best from out here.

I should be accountable for what I did to the country.

And personally, I have to make it up to Yang Woo.

So...

I heard they executed a search warrant.

Did you get my things?

- Yes. - Like my old laptop?

Pardon?

Chief Jo.

No, never mind.

I have the letter you asked for.

What should I do with it?

I'd appreciate it if you kept it with you for a while.

Why don't I give it to him myself?

To my son?

Yes.

I don't want him to be embarrassed of his own father.

And in order to do that, he needs to understand.

(To my beloved son, Sun Kyu)

(The happiest day of my life was when you came into my life.)

(Seoul Central District Prosecutor's Office)

What's the criminal case you wanted to show me?

Take a look at this.

(Prosecutor Han Ji Hyun, Homicide Department)

We should request a search and seizure warrant for this, right?

Yes.

But where did you get this?

I asked digital forensics to restore Jo Hee Bong's laptop just in case.

Do you think this will be okay?

That's the deputy prime minister.

The evidence is loud and clear.

The problem that caused this mess regarding Jungin Bank...

was that the government abetted and encouraged...

the people who were involved...

to receive illegal benefits.

- Like what? - Issuing bonds with warrants,

giving call options, and so on.

I suggested all that.

The deputy prime minister, who was the chairman back then,

decided to keep quiet about it.

And I carried that all out.

Why?

I thought...

that was the only way to settle the problem with Jungin Bank.

It was too insolvent,

and no firm wanted to takeover.

So back then, I thought it was the best option.

And now, do you think it was wrong?

I don't know.

Anyway,

I want you to add that...

to the report regarding Jungin Bank.

Everything I just said.

Then you will be held responsible.

Is that why you resigned?

Everyone's been talking about it.

No, that's regarding another issue.

I'm sorry...

for being...

so narrow-minded...

about Eugene Han.

No, it's okay.

Are you really going to resign?

If you resign during this kind of situation,

you'll only be running away from the situation that you've created.

I won't run away.

That's why I'm asking you...

to quickly write up a report regarding the manipulation...

of Jungin Bank's BIS capital ratio.

How fast do you want it?

Finish it while the deputy prime minister...

is still in office and has power.

But it won't last long.

- He's burning. - I see.

Dong Hyun, I'm going to run a blood test.

Why? Is there something wrong?

Am I going to die?

Old people don't die that easily.

You're doing well with chemotherapy.

We'll check if his lungs are okay by taking a chest x-ray.

We also need to check if he has any underlying diseases...

that we've failed to detect before the surgery.

Is it that bad?

I'm saying we should check just in case.

Not many people are like this after surgery, but he's very old.

Okay.

I have all the numbers of his family in the States.

Hey, Aunt.

I'll be right there.

No, I'll call you when I get there.

Don't worry.

Okay, bye.

(Stock Appraisement of Jungin Bank)

Hello?

The prosecution?

I called his family in the States.

But no one knew about his condition.

I heard all his kids have PhDs.

If he raised them so well,

he could've asked them to take care of him.

I don't get why he's suffering all on his own.

Sir.

Good morning.

The ray of sunshine in early summer.

Sir.

The girl who's always ready to burn with passion.

Your son, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren...

all got on a plane to Korea.

You must miss them a lot.

Thank you.

And I'm sorry...

for creating a false myth...

and a dangerous dream.

When you told me...

that not everyone who works hard can become rich,

it really made my heart ache.

But that doesn't mean we lived a wrong life.

You see,

we were a very hungry generation.

All we wanted was to eat three meals a day,

but that was impossible.

So many people of my generation...

were willing to sell their souls...

as long as they could escape from poverty.

But on the other hand, you and your generation...

can fill yourself with passion whenever you want.

You're brave.

And unlike us,

you guys are relaxed.

Sir.

Deputy Prime Minister Heo has returned to Korea.

After having met the president at the Blue House,

he moved to the government complex in Seoul.

And he's planning to announce the Washington Project,

which is an economical plan that he has designed himself.

(Government Complex-Seoul)

(DPM Heo announces his Washington Project)

Hello, sir.

They've been waiting for you.

Goodness. Thank you for coming.

Have you been well?

- Thank you. - You did great.

Thank you.

You did great, sir.

Thank you.

We hear you were successful in settling the matters...

regarding the tariff of imported cars.

He will mention that during his press conference.

In a meeting with correspondents in Washington,

you stated that Korea's economy is suffering from a severe problem.

Could you tell us what that is?

Yes, Korea's economy is suffering from an illness.

That includes jobs and real estate.

What's worse...

is that there aren't many developing industries.

It is all due to the restructuring...

we failed to do after the financial crisis.

There is still a solution though.

Promoting investments could be an answer to our problems.

How will we promote investments?

I have envisioned a way in which it could happen.

I will stay humble and firmly take a stance...

while implementing certain measures.

You are being considered as a leading presidential candidate.

What are your thoughts on that?

If I'm given the opportunity,

I will take it.

- Let him through. - Hold on!

- What's this? - You're under arrest for murder.

- Murder? - What?

What?

What's going on?

Murder?

- And who did I murder? - Professor Chae Byung Hak

- What? - Follow me, please.

- Sir? - Mr. Heo?

- Sir... - What's going on?

Is this true?

(Money Game)

Bahama will sue through the ISDS.

Who do you think you are?

We should only do what we're ordered to do.

You miserable jerk.

Refusing to cooperate won't help you in any way.

Bring me Chae Yi Hun.

You doing this won't change the world.

We'll quietly bury this.

I will finish what DPM Heo...

ordered me to do.

It could be the smoking gun.

- I'm sorry. - I'm sorry.

I'm not miserable!
