(All people, organizations, locations, and incidents in this drama are fictitious.)

You don't buy directly from a dealer, right?

Do you think you can get away with this?

Gosh. That jerk can't read the room, can he?

Hey. Darn it. I'll talk!

All right. Why don't we start with the CEO, Kim Yun Gi? Yes?

We'll get CEO Kim's attention with a drug broker?

- Eddy Jung? - Assemblywoman.

This is Eddy Jung.

I'm Eddy Jung.

That's his main job.

How much can you bring in this time?

I'm hoping to check it myself.

Once CEO Kim has his new market,

he'll bring in the goods from his supplier.

What did you just say?

I can bust the deal?

The drug deal?

Money, drugs, and those dirtbags.

It's a chance to gobble up all of them in one go.

You're awake.

What are you doing, you bastard?

No!

Once again, you didn't come here to make money.

You came here to be killed by me. Isn't that right?

Hi. Everyone, stop.

Gosh. What took you so long?

Get them all!

Good shot.

Don't shoot.

You don't seem to understand.

You won't be able to arrest me for something like this.

Prosecutor Kwak. Kim Yun Gi...

Kim Yun Gi was found dead in the lockup.

The day Kim Yun Gi was apprehended,

the drug smuggler got away.

Protect your life.

His men came to the rescue.

This sucks.

What are you doing?

Since we're done with the last project,

we should move on to the next project right away.

Dad.

Dad, I think I just caused trouble.

What do I do?

He got off on probation?

- It's exactly that. - What?

He had someone watching his back.

Min Won Jun, to probation.

Yes, that's right. He was a third-generation conglomerate.

There's someone who blurs out the blatant truth.

A fixer for the VVIPs of Korea.

That's Director Baek.

Gosh. This case will give us a headache.

Kang Ha Ri seems to have caught on.

Call him right now.

I'll need you to come somewhere with me.

Where would we go at this late hour?

You'll see.

Follow me.

He's here.

It's a pleasure to meet you,

Mr. Kang Ha Ri.

I had a hunch someone important was here.

But little did I know it'd be you, President.

It was not my intention to shock you.

My apologies. However, I needed confirmation.

What confirmation?

Confirmation whether...

you are someone who can see...

the same goal as mine through to the end.

"Same goal?"

Didn't you already take a hint of it?

That we three have the same enemy.

It might become a long, boring battle.

And during a long battle, one will stab others in the back.

For such a reason,

I don't want to keep such a person near me.

A person who will complete the task,

no matter...

what happens.

I needed someone like that.

Just like you, Mr. Kang,

and Secretary Jung.

I see.

I understand what you're going on about.

However, I still have my doubts.

Why would you need someone like me?

To defeat evil, you must use evil.

When your opponent comes at you with guns and knives,

you can't be civil and rely on words to reason with them.

But given your position,

I'm certain you can fight against anyone with strong power.

The nature of my position isn't to fight against people.

It's to reach an agreement and embrace people.

If I wanted to fight anyone,

I shouldn't have run for president.

My words and actions...

come with great responsibility.

I can't be free from that.

Naturally, I shouldn't be.

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

to replace me and become a player...

on my behalf.

(The Player 2: Master of Swindlers)

- Cheers. - Cheers.

Let's replace any sad thoughts with work.

What was your name again?

- What? I'm Hyun Seo. - Hyun Seo?

- Hyun Seo. - What's up with the ring?

- My ring? - What are you wearing?

Where's the Grim Reaper?

Why didn't he take that jerk?

How could he get away with this in court? I really don't get it.

I'm going to kill that jerk tonight. Mark my words.

Gosh. Seriously.

I told you I didn't want to play cards toward the end.

Well, let's just pretend we made a donation to a charity.

What nonsense is that?

Poor people will stay poor. Seriously.

Unbelievable.

Darn it.

Who put this darn motorcycle here? This is bad luck.

Hey, what are you doing?

Come on!

Think about all the trouble I had to go through because of that.

Why did you park it here?

Those stupid delivery guys ought to take a different road.

So I don't see them. Those poor...

Hey.

Darn it. What's your problem?

It's been so long. How long has it been?

Gosh. Who are you?

Come on, man. Stop joking.

Hey.

How come you haven't changed one bit?

Because you haven't changed at all, I'm quite flustered.

Let go of me.

What? Do you have something to say to me?

No.

Have a nice time with your friend.

- Hey. - Bye.

- Gosh. Hey, buddy. - Who are you?

Gosh. Will you keep playing dumb with me?

Hey, mister!

- Just talk it out. Come on. - He's my buddy. We're just playing.

What buddy? I don't think...

- you guys are friends. - No!

Come on, mister. We're good friends.

- Are you sure? - Yes, he's my friend.

- Have fun then. Bye. - Gosh, thanks.

Hey.

You're hurting my feelings.

We served together in Nonsan. Come on, man.

Seriously. Stop acting so clueless.

The boot camp?

I got exempted from the military duty!

Wait.

You're not him. I'm sorry.

I must have had one too many. Goodness.

I'm sorry.

You crazy jerk.

Come on. "Crazy jerk?"

Don't use such foul language.

- Be nice. You're scaring me. - Gosh.

- You're just a lunatic. - Gosh.

How could you call me a lunatic now?

That's why I'm apologizing to you...

when there are people who don't even apologize after killing a man.

Let's not make a big deal out of this.

I'll take that as an agreement.

You didn't kill him, though.

I did feel good watching him getting smacked.

Aren't you glad you came out for some fresh air?

As if.

I was so close to killing him, but I controlled myself.

- So did you get it done? - Of course.

- Stage One is complete. - You're so fast as expected.

(Stage 1: Collect evidence. Complete!)

Why on earth?

(Prosecutor Kwak Do Soo)

Prosecutor Kwak. Is there a problem?

Can you find a phone number for me?

A phone number?

It's been a while.

Yes, it has.

It's our first time meeting after graduating from law school.

Surprising people must be your hobby.

Since you graduated at the top of our class,

I thought you would be the first one...

to join the prosecution or to take the bench.

How did you end up on my radar?

Unexpectedly, the sword or the scale didn't suit my style.

But running around with criminals suits your style?

What is it? What's the deal with you?

Well,

if I have to answer that, I would say I'm being myself.

You can't use your silver tongue to weasel your way out of this.

I don't know what you're up to,

but Kang Ha Ri and his gang are clearly criminals.

And it seems to me that you, a law school graduate,

are on the same side with those criminals.

Am I wrong?

Then you can indict me.

Of course, you must do that after getting some hard evidence on me.

- Ta-da. - What's that?

I'll turn this into a masterpiece.

What next?

I'll use this to infiltrate our enemy's camp.

Gosh. Just like the Trojan horse.

Bingo.

(Stage 2: Get the Trojan horse manufactured.)

Excuse me.

Sir.

Sir?

Mr. Jun Jung Ho!

(Jun Jung Ho: A sculpture artist)

(Used to be popular in the underground art scene, )

(but has been keeping a low profile without releasing any artwork)

Hello.

Who are you?

You're Mr. Jun Jung Ho, right?

Professor Seo of Seoam University told me about you.

You see, ateliers are like rooms of soul...

for artists.

If a stranger were to barge into your room of soul,

would you be happy about that?

Gosh.

I'm not sure. I never had a room like that.

Right. Enough about that.

I'd like to ask you to create a piece for me.

I want to make something like this.

- The size... - You know what?

I don't want to talk about art...

with someone who knows nothing about art.

Please leave.

Mr. Jun.

How big do you want it?

About this big?

Okay.

Gosh. You're here, Eun Na.

(Eun Na: Art influencer, graduated from London Art School, )

(in the top 5 art collectors, has 890,000 followers, )

(the 1st blogger to have over 800,000 subscribers)

Please spread the good word about my gallery.

Your gallery is so unique.

I'm counting on you.

Stand there.

I'll take it now.

(New post, gallery)

Yes. Let's go with that.

That makes me look a bit more intelligent.

Then what's the title? "Meeting a new side of me."

"A cool spot for culture, Baek Gallery."

"Hashtag no sponsorships and no ads."

Yes.

It's her. Let's go.

"Hello, Eun Na."

"I am your..."

- Are you going on a blind date? - I'm working here. Come on.

I'm trying to get into my character. Don't get in my way.

Gosh. Why is my front hair parting like this?

- Let's go already. - My back hair is messy, right?

Let's go before I mess you up.

Okay. Here I go.

Gosh, I'm nervous.

- Eun Na. - Gosh, you startled me.

- It's Eun Na, right? - Yes. She is.

Gosh. She looks 1,000 times better in person. Seriously.

Gosh. Nice to meet you. You know...

Wait. Let go of me. I'm a huge fan of hers.

Seriously. I'm following you on Instagram and YouTube.

I have notifications on and everything.

She's really the best.

All right. Thank you for being such a fan.

Hold on. I just want to show her one thing.

Look at this. This is...

This is the list of graduates from London Art School.

These crazy bastards forgot to put you on the list.

Can you believe it?

I'm going to sue these bastards.

And look at this. What is this?

Undisclosed advertising contract?

This isn't true, right? You didn't do such a thing, right?

This isn't all. There's more. Look.

Tax evasion! That's not true, right?

You didn't evade taxes, right? This isn't true, right?

And there's more.

- Criminal record for scamming? - Criminal record for scamming?

This really can't be true. I cannot believe that.

- Right? - Of course, it's not.

- What is this... - Who are you?

Are you threatening me?

Pardon?

I'm not threatening you. I'm such a big fan.

I'm so upset.

But...

I do have a favor to ask.

(Stage 3)

(Cast a decoy!)

(Stage 4)

(Find a piece of art!)

(Art Museum)

We don't have time to leisurely look around like this.

Look. There isn't much time until the auction.

We barely have enough time to find a piece of art.

- Let's go. - Pick one. I'll buy it for you.

Here. Happy? Let's go.

You have a good eye.

That's nice.

The slammer. No. Prison.

Okay. The name of this piece, "Prison of Flower."

This may look like a normal vase to people,

but from the flowers' perspective,

this is nothing but a prison, don't you think?

Can't you hear the flowers' desperate cries?

"I want to get out. Help us. I'm suffocating. Let us go!"

What?

Sorry.

Okay.

It should be about 300,000 dollars.

Are you saying...

The world-renowned artist Paik Nam June said this.

"Art is a scam."

I don't think he was talking about this kind of situation.

We have the piece of art.

We just need one more thing. Follow me.

What else is left?

Hey. You need to pay for that!

Oh, right.

- I'm so sorry. - That'll be 30 dollars.

It's 30 dollars? Could I get 10 dollars off?

It's already a good price.

(Here is an update on the target.)

What scheme are you cooking up now?

(Hanyang Studio)

Hey!

- Go ahead. - Go ahead, Je Yi.

- I got it. - Hey.

- Come on. - Darn it.

(Gaehang Chicken)

(Gaehang Chicken)

Come on.

Good job.

I told you to hurry up!

That's the fastest I've run in the past ten years.

Hey. There must be enough for us, right?

I hope so.

If we don't get to eat it, you're going to have to pay.

I'll cook eggs for you or something.

- Enjoy. - Thank you.

Shall we eat?

It's so good.

You haven't even put it in your mouth yet.

I can just tell.

- Gosh. - Why? Is it not that good?

It's so good.

I'm so upset that I'm just now discovering this.

That Maillard reaction is really hitting my tongue.

It feels as if I'm watching a philharmonic perform.

- How lame. - By the way,

why did Ha Ri say no to eating something so delicious?

Is he too full from getting cursed at too much?

I thought we were going to do something very important.

This is important. We all work hard to eat and live.

That's surprising.

You always act as if you only live for today.

You misunderstood me.

I'm going to live happily for a long time.

Try some. This place is good.

I know.

You haven't even tried.

I've been here before.

With who?

With someone I loved.

You even have time for love. How romantic.

I used to be.

Should we talk about something else?

I talked to Byung Min earlier.

Really? Are they doing well?

Of course. Mr. Damien Lee.

Okay. Done.

(Eun Na's Choice is back after a break.)

(How does artist Damien Lee's "Prison of Flower" make you feel?)

(That vase gives me inspiration about nature and humans!)

(Where can we see Damien Lee's works?)

That's great.

Look over here.

Very nice.

How handsome. Hold the vase as if it's your girlfriend.

You could be a professional model. Amazing.

Tilt your head a bit. Great.

So cool.

I've never done anything like this before.

Very nice!

Let's keep going. Great.

Very nice.

Take a look, Damien.

- Oh, my. - They turned out nicely.

Good. Nice. Okay.

That looks nice.

("Prison of Flower," Damien Lee, Artist Note)

(Who is Damien Lee, art influencer Eun Na's artist of the month?)

(Who is this man that art messenger Eun Na selected?)

(Art influencer and collector Eun Na with 890,000 followers...)

(recently uploaded a new piece of art.)

Artist Oh Eun Je's work, "A Dead-end Street."

Going for 150,000 dollars.

I see 150,000 dollars.

Sold for 150,000 dollars.

The next piece is "Prison of Flower."

It's the work of Damien Lee,

a rising star that the whole world is watching.

Through the tension between the flower and the vase,

he depicts freedom and restriction.

We will begin the bidding at 50,000 dollars.

- I bid 100,000 dollars. - I hear 100,000 dollars.

- I bid 120,000 dollars. - We have 120,000 dollars.

I bid 150,000 dollars.

Yes, 150,000 dollars.

I bid 200,000 dollars.

We have 200,000 dollars.

I bid 250,000 dollars.

It's rising quickly. We have 250,000 dollars.

I bid 270,000 dollars.

We have 270,000 dollars.

Are there any more bids?

- I bid 300,000 dollars. - We have 300,000 dollars.

I bid 320,000 dollars.

We have 320,000 dollars.

We have 320,000 dollars.

Are there any more bids?

I bid 350,000 dollars.

We have 350,000 dollars.

We have 350,000 dollars.

We have 350,000 dollars.

We have 350,000 dollars.

Sold. Congratulations.

Thank you.

(Damien Lee, Artist Note, "Prison of Flower")

Look into him.

Yes, ma'am.

Why did you get so carried away?

Listen. I think I'm so cut out to bet on stuff.

I could feel my heart pump.

What a shame.

I could've watched you...

pay 320,000 dollars for a vase.

That made my hair rise on end.

Okay. I just got something. Let's have a look.

Yes.

"You're invited to Baek Gallery for a party this Friday evening."

Yes. Look.

(Invitation to Baek Gallery's special exhibit)

What a quick response.

Because she's quick when she smells money.

Je Yi. How is Damien Lee's new work coming on?

Mr. Jun.

Hi.

What are you doing over here?

I'm trash.

- Darn it. - Did it not work?

I just can't finish it.

Let's have a look at what you made so far.

Come on.

What's the problem? It's done.

No.

I need to put the finishing touch on the eyes.

The eyes.

I can't do it.

What's the problem with the eyes?

You're so terrible!

This is why I should never talk to people who don't know art.

The finishing touch is in the eyes.

When the artist dotted the eyes of his dragon,

it came alive and flew away.

This horse needs its eyes dotted...

if it's to gain life and become a masterpiece!

Gosh.

- What? - Hey.

Did you ever stop to think...

you could lose your life...

while trying to give life to a horse you made?

I contacted the school.

He is a graduate.

Such a genius stayed quiet for so long?

Then he suddenly appeared?

Are the party preparations going well?

Yes.

Mr. Damien Lee?

Oh, hello.

You're Director Baek, right?

Thank you for the invite.

I'm honored you could make it.

I was impressed by the work you auctioned.

You flatter me.

By the way,

I heard you studied at the British National Academy.

Yes. I graduated about...

five years ago.

I visited a few times to attend some exhibitions.

I used to drop by...

the annex lounge for a coffee.

I see.

You know the place.

The window seat facing the garden was practically mine.

The view from there when the sun sets...

It's unforgettable.

Is it?

How strange.

The annex lounge opened three years ago.

It used to be an exhibition hall.

Oh, did it?

I must have mixed it up...

with the lounge in the third hall.

I guess that's possible.

How about a drink?

Your guest is here.

Hey, Jonathan.

Out of the Koreans who studied there,

these three are active professionals.

These two live abroad right now,

and only one lives here.

It's this one guy.

Jonathan Joe.

Thanks for coming.

You two studied at the same place.

Not many Koreans went to the British National Academy.

You must know each other well.

Well...

I didn't exactly stay in touch with my fellow graduates.

Long time no see, Damien Lee.

I was a quiet guy in school, so I didn't think you'd remember me.

It's been a while. Jonathan, right?

That's right.

I'm doing well. How about you?

Are you Joe Young Woong?

It's my Korean name.

Oh, we're from...

Suseo Police Station's Violent Crimes Unit.

(Government Pass, Park Soo Hwan)

Police?

What would the police have to do with me?

We're investigating companies...

that are using artwork...

to gather illegal slush funds.

It looks like a few professionals are involved.

I have nothing to do with that.

Such problems in the art world...

I am really sick and tired of it.

I know.

I know. But...

We need your cooperation with the investigation.

Cooperation... Investigation...

You must be pleased to reconnect.

- Yes. - I'll let you two chat.

Thanks.

How have you been?

It has been such a long time.

Good job.

I was trembling so bad, you know.

Look at my hands shaking.

You did a great deed.

You don't have to go too far.

(WQ Group chairman Min Byung Gyu's home)

Hello.

You're late. You said you'd come by during the day.

The chairman and his wife waited all day before going out.

Sorry. We found an issue with the product...

and had to wait until we got a new one.

Oh, no.

I'm sorry, but could I use the bathroom?

- The bathroom? - Yes.

Use the one upstairs.

Okay, thanks.

Hey, can you finish up for me?

I really need to... Darn it.

Hey. Be sure not to scratch anything.

Okay.

What do you mean?

You can't say that now.

The piece comes in tomorrow.

That's not right, is it?

Let's just forget it.

The deal's off.

Darn it.

Here you are.

I thought you'd left and was slightly upset.

Oh, right.

Sorry for the noise.

I didn't mean to overhear,

but is there a problem?

It's nothing, really.

Why don't you tell me about it?

It seemed to involve your work.

Well...

I'm expecting a delivery of a piece tomorrow from the US.

I need a place to store it until it's revealed.

I have a problem with space.

- I see. - It's a huge thing,

so it's quite an issue.

I'm in such a bind.

That's good.

What?

I think I can help you with that.

But...

It's a really big piece.

It won't be easy.

Baek Gallery.

This was the target.

Can you get me a phone number?

It'll be there in an hour.

Okay. We'll be ready too.

See you later.

Who are you?

(Artwork Transport)

Is this how the Greek soldiers in the Trojan horse felt?

Greek? Weren't the Trojan men in the Trojan horse?

The Greeks sent the horse to Troy.

Where's Troy, then?

Troy?

Is Troy modern day Turkey?

No, is it just a myth?

No, it's not Turkey.

I'll look it up.

Let's see.

It's Turkiye.

Turkiye is Turkey, moron.

Famous for their ice cream.

Since we mentioned Turkey, how about kebab for dinner?

Kebab sounds good.

And for Greece, we'll have Greek yogurt.

It might be nice as a dip.

Being hungry is helping your brain work.

- Right? - You really know something.

We unified the wars Before Christ with food.

- Okay, nice. - I'm in.

I'd rather run away to Turkey than eat.

Je Yi. How about some kebab?

This way. That's it.

Look out.

Okay. Watch the sides.

Working on it must've been hard.

Hard? No way. It's the fate of an artist.

I've emptied the space. Let's go.

All right. Let's go.

(Log in with simple PIN)

- This way. - Okay.

Here we go.

It's all set.

- We only need your signature here. - Okay.

- Thank you. - No, thank you.

- Bye. - Bye.

Bye.

The lighting, temperature, and humidity.

Everything is perfect.

If you look over there, we use an automated system.

It's a relief you like it.

But compared to the space, there aren't many artworks.

Is there something behind it over there?

You sure have a good hunch to pinpoint things.

(20 million dollars, 25 million dollars)

Oh, my gosh.

It's amazing.

Each of them is worth around 20 million dollars.

The artworks in books are actually here.

Shall we head to the office now?

You need to sign the consignment agreement.

Of course.

My legs are numb.

I had my doubts, you know?

Are you telling me to ride this?

Think of it as riding a ride.

- Are you kidding me? - No.

You're riding it. The horse.

What a bummer. Had it been a bit bigger, I would've ridden it.

Is that so?

Then I'll have the size changed to large.

- No, don't. - Je Yi.

- What is it? - Here's what I think.

This wooden horse is something you'd ride, right?

Now then, who is the best driver here?

- It's obviously Cha Je Yi. - It's obviously Cha Je Yi.

I finally feel relieved.

Finding a greater place than this must be impossible in Korea.

Of course.

I paid great attention to everything...

from the interior conditions to security.

Your work will be kept in the perfect vacuum state.

So don't worry, Mr. Damien Lee.

Director Baek.

Did you say vacuum state?

Yes.

The system turns on the minute the storage door closes.

"Vacuum?"

All air will be released? Then what about Je Yi?

"Air will be released?"

Air will be... Why would the air be released?

- The power... - Hold on. Hush. Give me a second.

- Why would they release the air? - I don't know.

Director Baek.

I need to use the restroom.

It's over there.

I'll be at the office first.

All right.

You heard her, right?

Byung Min. Get into the security system and open the storage door.

- Hurry. - Wait.

- I'll try it. Give me time. - Do it quickly.

I haven't done this before.

- Hold on. - Hurry.

How do I do it? Darn it.

Je Yi. Leave that place as soon as possible. It's too dangerous.

Can you hear me, Cha Je Yi?

I can, okay?

Don't overdo it, Je Yi. Leave that place. Listen to me.

We can abort the plan. Now move!

Je Yi?

The vacuum system...

must be real.

I'll rush as much as possible.

- Je Yi. - Quickly do something.

- Can you hear me, Je Yi? - Darn it.

Answer me if you can hear me, Je Yi.

Cha Je Yi!

I can't...

breathe.

How much longer, Byung Min?

Hold on. I got it!

- The first step is complete. - Good.

Hang in there a bit more, Je Yi.

- Breathe deeply, Je Yi. - Abdominal breathing!

- Breathe with your abdominal. - Hang in there, Je Yi!

Breathe slowly.

- Abdominal breathing. - Hold on. This is my first time.

Hurry up, Byung Min! Come on!

Cha Je Yi!

Je Yi.

Cha Je Yi.

This isn't going to work. Abort.

Abort the plan.

Director Baek.

What's the rush?

Weren't you using the restroom? You took your sweet time.

Actually...

I suffer from constipation.

I do take probiotics in the morning.

I see.

Taking probiotics every morning is indeed important.

Right.

We have an invited guest.

Say hi to him.

Hi.

My name is Jun Jung Ho.

- And? - You have a storage, yes?

It's currently being raided.

- Excuse me? - Damien Lee.

His real name is Kang Ha Ri.

Introducing him is unnecessary, right?

After all, you two know each other.

Director Baek.

Let me explain.

- Please listen to me first... - Be quiet. Just follow me.

Are you looking for something?

- What? - You also look pale.

- Are you feeling unwell? - No.

Honestly, my stomach has been upset since morning.

Oh, they have arrived just in time.

I invited some guests over.

Prosecutor.

Hello?

Yes.

"The Prosecution Service?" Why?

"Kang Ha Ri?"

I'm happy to see you're doing well.

Do you know how worried I was,

thinking you might've ended up in a coffin when you should be in jail?

It's this one.

Damien Lee, my foot.

- Open the door. - Yes, sir.

What are you doing to my artwork?

Don't worry. It's not an artwork.

Do you even know what art is?

Of course, I do. I'm an artist myself.

An artist in criminal psychology.

Run wild all you want. You're still in the palm of my hand.

It's empty inside.

I can't believe this.

What on earth are you guys looking for?

Move it.

I'm sorry, Troy.

- What? - I'm sorry.

(Hona Industries Chairman Lee Doo Young's House)

Ma'am?

The villagers,

who were diagnosed with cancer due to the waste water,

- filed a class-action suit. - There it is.

But Hona Industries won because of insufficient proof.

Excuse me. Can you turn off the computers in the secretary's office?

Thank you.

And Nokan Constructions won...

against those who had their houses stolen.

Where's the water leak?

(Taepoong Pharmaceuticals Chairman Jang Tae Seok's House)

And Chairman Jang, who took advantage...

of his student's girlfriend, making the student take his own life,

was also acquitted.

Gosh.

Unbelievable.

What? Is something wrong?

There must have been a mistake.

I'm sorry, Prosecutor Kwak. I made you come here for nothing.

I'll make up for this sometime soon.

Well, you don't have to make it up to me.

Come on. Now that we have become acquainted,

it'd be nice to stay in touch.

Prosecutor Kwak Do Soo?

You think so?

But...

I don't.

It would've been great if you ran a gym, not a gallery.

I recently used up all of my personal training sessions.

Anyway, I'm sorry about this.

All right. You must be busy. Why don't you all...

(Chairman Lee Doo Young of Hona Industries)

(Chairman Min Byung Gyu of WQ Group)

(Chairman Jung Chang Seok of Nokan Constructions)

Oh, my. What's that? Goodness.

Gosh. What's that? What's happening?

(Chairman Lee Doo Young of Hona Industries)

- Gosh. - Step back.

It's the ledger.

The bribe ledger.

Gosh. You said you would make it up to me later.

But that was fast.

All right. Collect all the evidence here.

Please politely escort Director Baek.

Prosecutor Kwak. I know nothing about this.

Let go. Come on, let go of me. I don't know anything about this.

- Prosecutor Kwak! - Bye.

Gosh. He's so not my style.

I guess I have no choice but to get to know him.

Hey.

- Me? - Yes, you.

- What? - You must come too.

What?

- Wait. Me too? - Yes.

I see.

Let me put some cuffs on you, though.

Gosh. Fine.

Give them to me. I'll do it.

Right. On what grounds?

Kang Ha Ri. You're under arrest for fraud.

You have the right to remain...

You know your rights, don't you? You're an expert.

Gosh. Yes, I do.

Okay. Yes.

Excuse me.

Here.

Keep going.

Don't you have artworks that are worth...

tens of millions of dollars in the storage?

He's a con artist, trying to steal those artworks.

Damien Lee, Kang Ha Ri, or whatever his name is.

Calm down. If you take action now, you'll end up losing all of them.

The evidence and the artworks too.

What do you want from me then?

What do I want?

WQ Group?

You know the money from Chairman Min?

I want half of that money.

Give me one million dollars.

I never got any money from him.

Gosh. Did you think I would come all this way...

without good intel?

Pay me one million dollars, so you can keep the rest.

You can keep your secret and your artworks.

I don't understand what you mean.

If you keep playing innocent, there's nothing I can do.

Let's pretend we never had this discussion.

How about 500,000 dollars?

Let's settle on 500,000 dollars.

No.

I want one million dollars.

Half of the money from Chairman Min was one million dollars.

Chairman Min gave me one million dollars.

Why are you asking me to give you all of it?

Let's take a break.

You know, the ledger...

That's fabricated.

I've never kept that kind of ledger.

If I can prove that it was fabricated,

you'll have proof that this was all set up.

So you must get the ledger evaluated first.

Gosh. I thought you were a lawyer for a second.

I will verify the authenticity.

But the fabricated ledger...

and the recording of your confession are separate matters.

By the way,

you said you never kept the ledger. By that, do you mean...

you did accept the bribes?

Do you like confessing to your crimes?

- Cheers! - Cheers!

- Good job. - Well done.

- Great job. - Nicely done.

Good work.

Well done, everyone.

Especially, Je Yi. You did an amazing job today.

I only get a compliment?

File an insurance claim for an industrial accident.

I almost died in there.

Je Yi. Seriously. It was really scary this time.

He didn't say a word. We were running out of time.

And I was typing on my laptop. My hands were shaking like crazy.

I was worried that you'd die.

Oh, my. Poor Je Yi.

Thank you for making it out alive.

I'll be good to you from now on.

Good girl. I'm so proud of you.

This should be considered an industrial accident.

This time, it'll be recognized as an industrial accident.

Mr. Hwang. Did you hear that?

No, I didn't.

What?

My hearing is getting worse with old age.

I only listen to what I want to hear.

Gosh. Seriously. Are you guys for real?

Whenever I think about what I had to go through,

I still feel traumatized.

If you can hear me, answer me.

Cha Je Yi!

- I'll just go inside. - No, wait.

No! I got it. Go to the next stage.

- Give me five seconds! - Je Yi.

- Director Baek. - I'm almost done. I got it.

- I got it. Je Yi! - Je Yi!

I suffer from constipation.

Director Baek. Let me explain.

- Please listen to me first... - Be quiet. Just follow me.

Mission complete.

Hey.

Gosh. I won.

There's nothing in here.

(Chairman Min Byung Gyu of WQ Group)

(KCSI)

Hold on.

Wait. Here.

How did you persuade Mr. Jun to help us?

He wanted to help us, so any more artworks wouldn't be sold...

in the black market.

I thought he was a weirdo. I guess he was a real artist.

But what about the ledger? Will it be admissible?

We must rely on the cutting-edge technology.

No. Cutting-edge technology isn't everything. You know?

Let's say...

there's a printer as big as this even when there's no ink inside.

Without me,

you couldn't have copied Director Baek's handwriting.

You're right about that.

You know, it's all about my hands.

I have the Hand of Almighty.

It's not important if the ledger is authentic or not.

It's important that he found such evidence.

With that, he can compare the ledger to bank account statements.

It worked as a trigger to launch a real investigation.

All right. Let's make sure we wrap up this case well.

But today, let's just enjoy our drinks.

- Cheers. - Cheers.

Let's drink until we drop.

But how come I'm the only one going down for this?

Why aren't you arresting that con artist, Kang Ha Ri?

He pretended to be an artist...

and sold an artwork at an auction.

He didn't.

Hey, Seung Jun.

Gosh. Damien.

Hey.

- Yes. - I need to talk to you.

- Let's talk then. - He returned the money.

- Let's talk. - I...

All of it.

You know what? It all worked out for the better.

I was getting sick of my social life in Korea.

This turned out well. Darn it.

The chairman told you to lie low until the dust settled...

I'll do what I want.

Yes, sir. I'm sorry.

This is a big scandal in the media.

Gosh. Why are they fussing over something that happened in the past?

- The oldest son of WQ Group, - Those poor people must be bored...

- Mr. Min, - and have nothing better to do.

was charged with drunk driving and a hit-and-run.

But it has been confirmed that he is currently on the run.

The police have made a request for a warrant to arrest Mr. Min.

Here is reporter Hong Seung Chan.

We have acquired video footage of Mr. Min...

causing a scene on the day of the incident.

- Wait. What... - He could not control his body...

and was even falling over,

but he still got in the driver's seat.

- Under the influence, - Let's not watch that.

- he drove around 12am... - Let's go.

- Is that him? - Mr. Min Won Jun.

- Darn it. - One moment.

Is it true that the incident was fabricated?

You were just put on a travel ban. What do you have to say?

- Mr. Min. - One moment.

You must be mistaken.

Wait.

- I... Darn it. - Let's go.

- Let's go. - Were you the culprit?

What do you have to say?

- Move out of the way. - One moment.

Okay.

We're not open yet.

I see. Are you the parents of Lee Sang Wook?

Who are you?

Well...

I'm the director of Dream Star Scholarship Foundation.

Why...

But how did Sang Wook...

Here.

(Dream Star Scholarship Foundation)

(Donation Certificate, Donor, Lee Sang Wook)

We received a donation...

under Lee Sang Wook's name.

What do you mean...

Sang Wook...

Oh, yes.

I already know what happened to your son.

An anonymous donor...

really wanted to make a donation under Lee Sang Wook's name.

- Who was that... - They didn't tell us their name.

They just said they were someone who knew Sang Wook well.

They said Sang Wook would've been a great teacher...

because he was such an earnest and honest person...

and that he would've been generous like this...

to students once he had become a teacher.

They said...

they just did what Sang Wook would've done.

Who could have done such a kind thing...

Thank you so much.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Honey.

I just realized something.

- What? - This is what it means to "flex."

- Gosh. - That was a nice way to use money.

I feel...

so proud.

You should donate all of the money you earn from now on.

If I do that, I'll end up broke. I'll do it once in a while.

Gosh.

That's still great.

I'm proud of you.

Hey, we need to take Mr. Hwang.

He's going to have chicken.

(Fried Chicken)

Okay. Good work.

Okay.

Did the delivery go well?

Yes.

Good work, Ha Ri.

You too, Secretary Jung.

Soo Min.

How much do you trust him?

Why are you asking that all of a sudden?

I don't mean much by it.

I'm just curious.

He is...

basically like a father to me.

He was my father's friend, who had passed away.

After my father passed away,

he became my guardian.

Whenever I'm struggling,

he always supports me.

Mr. Choi.

What do I do?

What do I do?

I didn't know you two had that story.

Of course.

You don't know anything about me.

With someone I loved.

Nothing.

It was just an accident.

How did it go?

We're going to need more time.

How much more?

I'm not sure. I have a few more things to check.

The reporter who was Jung Soo Min's boyfriend...

was murdered a few years ago.

The case was wrapped up quickly before they caught the culprit.

There is a rumor that the president was involved.

I'll look into whether there was someone behind it.

(Carlet, Kang Do Young)

(Dex, Kim Yun Gi, Baek Hyun Mi)

(Key personnel in Korea)

(Jeffery Jung, Head of the organization)

(Choi Sang Ho, President)

(Choi Sang Ho, President)

How much do you trust him?

(Choi Sang Ho, President)

(Jeffery Jung, Head of the organization)

(Choi Sang Ho, President)

(Epilogue)

Amazing.

(Let me introduce Damien Lee, my favorite artist these days!)

Oh, my. Mr. Yamada.

Long time no see.

What is that?

Are you going to buy Damien Lee's work?

You too? Really?

Word spreads quickly around here.

I thought you wouldn't know him because he's a rookie.

Only losers don't know about him.

The rate of return is higher...

than most apartments in Gangnam.

The rate of return is higher...

It's a secret.

Let's go.

(The Player 2: Master of Swindlers)

(Special thanks to Ryu Hwa Young, Jun Hyun Moo, Nana, Kim Young Chul, )

(Kim Jung Hyun, and Park Won Seok for appearing.)

When did you start watching us?

It has been confirmed that he owned more than 200 houses.

Mr. Myoung. The invisible hand of the real estate world.

Ha Ri was already...

Oh, my!

He was already making a plan to approach Mr. Myoung.

What a suspicious mood.

Mr. Myoung.

We might be able to see him today.

Mr. Myoung?
