Minister Lee Hyung Sub.

Did you sleep well?

Why do you think Lady Justice

is blindfolded and holds a sword in one hand, and a scale in the other?

The sword you wield was for what?

Justice?

Desires?

Betrayal?

- What? - Lee Hyung Sub,

there are things that don't change no matter how you change your clothes.

The fact that you are a murderer...

What are you talking about?

Who are you?

My name...

is Choi Kang Ta.

I'm Choi Hae Ryong's son.

Wh... Ch-Choi Hae Ryong?

No, it wasn't me.

I wasn't the one who killed Hae Ryong!

Spare my life.

Just spare my life.

I'll do whatever you ask.

From now on,

you have to do as I tell you.

Chairman Jang's son, Jang Ho...

make him stand trial according to the law.

If, by chance,

you use your authority again to let Jang Ho loose,

your vile past

will be broadcast on the 9 o'clock news.

And...

you can't tell your friends

what happened here today.

Episode 7

Minister! Minister!

Minister, are you all right?

Aigoo!

[2008-2009 Transaction Breakdown]

That devil...

No problem?

The police came and took all the company's account books, but there's no problem?

Will you stop worrying, Father?

Just because they shake out a little dust, you think they can put me away?

In the Republic of Korea, those with money are found innocent; those without, guilty.

What kind of nonsense is that,

when you've gone and tossed 8 billion won and stand charged?

Who's the top guy in the legal circles?

The Minister of Justice is on our side!

Really! What do you think is the benefit of having connections. Father?

That's when it's only once or twice!

I'm dying of humiliation because of you, kid!

- We've a problem, Chairman. - Huh, what is it?

Minister Lee Hyung Sub has vanished.

- What? - What? Vanished?

What? Does it make any sense no one knows where the Minister of Justice is?

Father, do you think he lost his position?

Shut up with that bad luck talk!

So you should clean up your own crap! How old are you?

Why are you still asking your father to change your diaper, punk?

I'm sorry, Father.

Anyhow, I'll meet with Minister Lee, and see what's going on.

Father, I'll meet with Michael, then.

Even if I'm being pursued, business must still go on, right?

Call me later.

Minister Lee, answer your phone, will you?

Hyung Sub!

Michael,

no matter what my brother says,

let it go out the other ear.

Actually, it can help me.

Could that be possible?

Michael...

What are you doing here?

I thought the two of us were going to talk business.

Why? Would I get in the way?

It's bad luck for a woman to get involved in business.

So, is that why you messed up everything that you were involved in?

Are you going to keep messing this up for me?

I'll expose all your past.

Give me a break.

If you've something to say, hurry up and then leave.

I want to be alone with him.

I'll talk to you later.

The men have to talk, so go on out, okay?

Where would I go?

Why don't you go to the powder room?

Look how she acts with her brother. I tell ya...

Michael,

I want to ask you something.

About Vivian,

what does she think of me?

I can't even sleep these days.

Whenever I think of Vivian, I break out in cold sweat.

Shall I give you a tip?

When you talk business with Vivian,

you can't ever steal a glance at her body.

She hates men whose minds are somewhere else when she's doing business.

Ah, is that so? No, that wouldn't do.

But, um... I heard from Vivian...

that you have some interest in Sejeong Construction.

Why not just go all in with Yong Bi?

It looks like things are going well with Jang Mi, too.

President Jang,

I'm saying this just in case,

but no matter what happens,

you can't touch reporters.

Ah, I'm not sure what you're talking about...

About the Rose Foundation,

the key is how much the press will be covering it going forward.

If you mishandle the press, it becomes difficult to do business.

You have to think of the Foundation's image.

You understand... what I'm saying?

O... of course, yes. Okay.

Ah, Michael, you're quite...

The person you're trying to call is...

[Hawaii Pervert]

What's a girl without a boyfriend hanging on her phone like that?

There's this heinous jerk that won't call or answer his phone.

Are you seeing someone?

It's not like that.

There's just this guy I keep running into accidentally.

Who's this guy? Start by dragging him to see me. I can tell by one look.

You'd have me drag anyone home.

It seems kind of suspicious, eh?

No.

Well.

Looks like the lord Minister is ignoring my calls.

Minister Lee, where are you that I can't get hold of you?

Just do me this one last favor, huh?

Then, I'll be waiting for your call.

General Hwang, it's me, Jang Yong.

About Minister Lee,

I still can't get hold of him.

I can't figure out why.

When you're working for the country,

you might get too busy sometimes to answer a friend's call.

Who's the one who got him working for the country?

What happened to Jang Ho?

So, I'm saying I have to meet with Minister Lee...

Oh, right. Woo Hyun has some pull to help us out, doesn't he?

Leave Woo Hyun alone.

He's too busy these days to have time to worry about those trivialities.

What? "Those trivialities"?

It's time for me to take my medicine.

What?

He doesn't have time to worry about "trivialities"?

So, he's saying his kid has no problems?

These disloyal jerks!

Where on earth is Lee Hyung Sub?

Honey, I've some important business, so I won't be able to come home for a few days.

Just wanted to let you know.

What happened today can never get out.

Also, inform the Secretary's office to cancel all my appointments for tomorrow.

Yes, Minister.

Chairman Jang's son, Jang Ho...

make him stand trial according to the law.

If, by chance, you use your authority again to let Jang Ho loose,

your vile past

will be broadcast on the 9 o'clock news.

The jerk has my slush fund list.

What the heck do I...

This won't do!

Ah! Minister Lee!

What the heck is going on? Where are you now?

I'm now...

Chairman Jang, just a second.

What is it? What's going on?

I'm pretty sure I told you that you can't contact Chairman Jang Yong.

That slush fund list... is it no longer interesting to you?

Shall I send a copy of that document to the broadcasts?

You can't! You can't!

Did you think you'd be safe, hiding like that?

I see you like bourbon.

Minister Lee, what are you doing in the middle of a call?

He's hung up!

Oh, I see. You're going to be like this, aren't you?

What's going on with what I told you to do?

I'll do it. I'll do it right now.

But, if I do that, you'll destroy the original slush fund list, right?

Fine.

However, you'll get some punishment for calling Jang Yong. I'll call you again.

What does that mean?

Hello, is this Department Chief Oh? I am Minister Lee.

You know the case against Jang Ho of Yong Bi Construction?

Take care of it.

Detain him at once! Detain him!

President Jang Ho.

- What is it? - You remember me, don't you?

I'm Seo Mi Soo of Seoul Police Department.

I think you'll have to come with us.

Do you have a warrant?

P... P... President.

What, what?

Is that the first warrant you've seen?

You public servants have worked so hard.

Okay. Let's go.

We go.

Let's go!

It looks like Yong Bi Construction got a construction payment

from the Saegangnam Wedding Hall for 800 million won.

But here,

if you look at President Choi's documents, the builder was Wondae Construction.

Officially, it was a bond transfer, but actually,

you extracted that money with threats, didn't you?

The answer is pretty clear.

Because President Choi didn't give you any interest,

you got in the middle and shook him down.

He tells good stories.

Can you show us a bond transfer contract?

You see, that...

that was a payment to Yong Bi Construction for construction work.

Then why are there no invoices for building materials?

Does Yong Bi Construction build with their beaks?

B... be...

So, what it is...

what was it?

Ah, it wasn't for construction...

It was payment for the subcontractors.

If you're going to make up stories, you should at least keep 'em straight.

You don't know your left from your right! What do you take us for? Morons*?!

*(Korean literal meaning: 'padded trousers')

Team Leader!

- Let go! - Calm down.

Would you like me to show you some real padded trousers?

Hey, watch your mouth!

Sir.

What a nice sound. I'll be leaving now.

Hey, excuse me.

You can't leave like that from a police station.

Hey, haven't you been contacted by your superiors?

If you mess with me...

Keep up the good work, okay?

- Grab him. - Where are you going?

Get out of the way, pal!

What are doing? Handcuff him!

- What? - Okay!

What? Oh, hey! You're really cuffing me?

Hey, you need to stop him!

Hey, he's really cuffing me right now. What are you...

Let go, you punk!

Listen, you'll be getting a call.

What? Why don't you call the Minister of Justice or whoever?

[Outline of Business Operations]

Ah! Michael...

Why is this so complicated?

I feel my head's going to crack.

I thought I could just get donations here and there

from guys that like me, distribute the donations among the poor,

and give support to artists.

But there's way too much to do.

Business is not a complicated thing.

Just like the way you attract me,

you just need to attract other people.

I attract you?

Like this, Michael?

And, one more thing.

In order to grow the Foundation,

it would be good to have a number of funds.

You create a fund for each operation, and you gather money and people.

I don't know that kind of thing.

Of course, Castle will take care of all that for you.

Will you, Michael?

Thank you. And in grateful...

First, the interview...

like a businesswoman.

You are Michael King, a member of the Board of Directors at Castle Group, correct?

I didn't know I'd be interviewing the two of you.

Today's interview will just be with President Jang Mi.

We are curious about your active role and support of the Rose Foundation.

It's because of this man.

How much leaders in business worldwide

have contributed to public welfare

was something that Director King enlightened me about.

So, our Yong Bi Group is thinking of

concentrating on supporting the arts, scholarships,

and on extending our social welfare programs.

There are rumors in some circles

that Yong Bi's casino money will flow into Rose Foundation.

Your brother Jang Yong, President of Yong Bi, is currently under arrest, correct?

Did he really extort building payments under the pretext of interest charges?

Isn't it proper manners not to make references outside of the topic in question?

I'm rather offended. This interview is over.

Let's go, Michael.

Dad, what the heck did Brother do?

I was totally humiliated because of him!

Hey, Jang Mi, can you say that now,

when it looks like your brother is headed for the slammer?

Dad, use your connections. It's easy.

It's not that easy!

Dad, if you keep being like this,

I'm going to talk to Michael.

I'm going to stop that Veet project or whatever.

I won't let him do it.

- What are you saying? - Dad,

Do you know what I am to Michael?

I'm a goddess, a goddess!

If I say the word, he'd even go and die.

So Dad, you better be good to me.

Jang Mi, are you...

Michael is even teaching me how to manage the business.

Later, I'm also going to manage the YB Hotel.

The arts programs that I'm starting,

you have to put your definite support behind them, alright?

Aigoo! Aigoo, my head!

Madam Han, are you in there?

Yes, Grandfather.

Madam Han, please step out for a moment. It's all done.

The faucet shouldn't leak anymore.

Thank you for your hard work.

It'd be a bit much to collect fees for the work,

so how about setting another bowl? How about some food?

You haven't eaten yet? Please have a seat.

This isn't a boarding house, Master Hong.

Aigoo, Mom. What about Hye Jung?

Where would a student go?

Wow, the smell of that stew is killer.

Please eat. There's plenty of food.

Thanks.

Oh, Sunbae.

What's up?

Later?

Okay. I'll talk to you later.

"Sunbae"? Any chance it's Woo Hyun?

Yes.

I really like that guy.

He is considerate, is clean cut, and he comes from a good family.

He's a perfect marriage partner.

Why are you dying to marry me off? How are you going to live without me?

What's there to worry about, when I'm here?

Look here, Master Hong...

Okay, I get it. I'll shut up, eat quietly, then leave.

Oh, geez!

Team Leader Hwang.

Isn't this looking for a needle in a haystack?

How are we going to look for an entry into the country with nothing but a codename?

It's not like he has 'Peter Pan' written in his passport.

How in the world are you going to find him?

Has this person really entered Korea? Is it certain?

Yes, he has. The telephone-rigged explosive in Kang Tae Ho's office,

the CD explosive that went off in Jang Yong's car,

are all explosives and methods that Peter Pan used in Europe.

So, Peter Pan has come to Korea.

However, we don't know who he is.

Well, this is... And on top of that, we don't know what he's planning?

I swear I'm about to go crazy.

Anyway, find some clues.

If you don't resolve this,

know that you'll be censured.

What did you find about Choi Hae Ryong's children?

The child, Choi Kang Ta... records show he was adopted overseas 25 years ago.

Adopted overseas?

It shows that a 7-year-old boy named Choi Kang Ta was adopted...

about half a month after the fire.

To what country?

The U.S.

The U.S.

But, why is that important now?

Peter Pan is connected to the Kang Tae Ho case.

If that's the case,

the adopted child is certain to have some connection to Peter Pan.

Choi Kang Ta...

Peter Pan.

What's gotten into you, Oppa, coming to see me while on duty?

Are you doing well? You're looking good.

Oh yeah? But really, what's up?

If it's about my brother, never mind,

because I've already had it out with my Dad.

Ay, what a headache!

I'm sure your father will figure that one out.

Right. He always has.

But,

how much do you know about Michael King?

What does that mean?

There's no record of what he did before he became an advisor to Castle Group,

and there's no information about how he lived in the US.

Why is the CIS curious about that?

Because Castle is also connected to our Hwang In Group's business.

Ah! You're planning to quit the CIS and take over your father's business, aren't you?

Indeed, could you become the businessman that Michael is?

Is your friend that amazing?

Yes, he's amazing.

I've never felt this particular feeling before.

I've gone all in for that man.

Do you think Michael feels the same about you?

The person you're trying to call is...

Aigoo, I swear. I'm getting a complex.

Why won't he answer the phone?

Ah, I don't know.

Let's go and see.

Miss Secretary, you know me, right?

I do.

However, I see that you don't have an appointment with the president today.

Ah! Today, I'm not here to see CEO Vivian Castle.

I came to see Director Michael King.

He's inside, right?

Look here, Reporter Jin.

On what authority do you think you can go in when you want?

We had a meeting planned.

I see you lie as though it's second nature.

Oh! You came right on time.

Reporter Jin Bo Bae, I see you're very punctual.

But I was 50 seconds late.

Then, shall we go, Reporter Jin?

Michael, have you forgotten we have a meeting?

No, I know.

Wow! That woman has a mean temper.

Is she always like that? Wow!

Your reason for coming today?

Ah...

Because of this.

What's the problem?

Michael, you were with me the entire day.

So how could you have been in Jejudo?

Why not?

What's with the "Why not?" all the time?

This man is serious trouble!

This is press fabrication. Press fabrication!

Reporter friend, your life must be not boring,

picking on everything like that.

What?

Yes, Chief?

What? President Jang Ho?

I understand.

I didn't drop by the police station today, so I didn't know.

I'll look into it.

- Follow me. - Excuse me?

I'll answer that question,

so please come.

I still don't understand.

How did such a story come out?

Don't just gloss over it. Explain.

That again?

It's like the hair of Sonogong* (*Chinese novel character, the Monkey King)

Excuse me?

If needed, I can replicate myself to two or even three.

I usually just send a replacement to boring meetings.

Why do you go to such lengths to do your job?

I mean, really.

Normal people don't do work that they don't like,

but you go so far as use a replacement.

Do you have to work like that?

Anyhow, it looks like you have that alibi you wanted.

What do you say?

Do you want to leave the meeting to your replacement,

and go with me somewhere to get some air?

Well, look!

You dragged me out, so I couldn't even cover President Jang Ho's story...

so it's only fair.

Don't you agree?

Michael, since you grew up in the States, you haven't visited places like this, have you?

It's really fun here. There's a lot to eat, and a lot to do.

I'll show you around.

I live like a fool like this.

And like a fool, I only look for you.

Why am I like this? All I did was love you.

Try it!

I'm having a hard time without you.

My heart just hurts too much.

There isn't a day that my tears will dry.

This street that I walk alone,

It was a day just like today.

It feels like you'll race from somewhere and

hold me in your arms.

Sunbae.

Huh? What?

Ah, that's right!

Oh, dear! Sunbae, I'm in Incheon now.

Why are you in Incheon?

Sunbae, let's meet tomorrow. Sorry.

Okay, I'll see you tomorrow.

You said you had an appointment. But it looks like you've been stood up.

Fine, I'm in the mood.

Since I'm not seeing Michael today either,

I'll have dinner with you.

The Chinese restaurant at our hotel isn't bad. Let's go there.

I didn't know that a wealthy man like you would like Jjajang noodles.

I used to love eating Jjajang noodles with my mom a long time ago.

Now, I'm totally sick of it.

As a reporter, I eat it all the time.

But, having grown up in the US, when did you eat Jjajang noodles?

I have a memory of it when I was young, a memory of eating Jjajang noodles.

Really?

With your parents?

Excuse me, Mister Choi Kang Ta.

Why are you looking so shocked?

When I was sleeping in the villa,

I heard your voice in my dream.

You said your Korean name was Choi Kang Ta.

Didn't you?

Well, it was a dream.

When I see you, someone comes to mind.

Who is it?

It wouldn't be your first love, would it?

My mom.

Your mom?

That's more clich� than a first love.

What do your mom and I have in common?

I'm sorry.

It would have been nice if Michael were here, too.

He said he liked shark's fin.

You've really... changed a lot.

I want to become a woman that earns Michael's acknowledgement.

That's why I agreed to take on the Rose Foundation.

Ah, as the representative of Hwang In, Group, you should donate. Hmm?

Thank you...

for the doll.

Then...

Let's get on well, Mister Kang Ta.

But, Mister Kang Ta,

what do you think of Michael King?

Why does that man keep crossing my path?

Whenever I need help,

he always appears.

Ahh!

Hey, you bastard, what the hell is going on?

Are you really going to work like this?

You still can't get in touch with Minister Lee?

Please wait just a little longer, President.

W- w-wait?

Aish! What the hell is Father doing?

He's speaking with the police.

Please hang in there just a little longer.

Hey! Attorney Go!

You call yourself a lawyer, and can't take of something like this?

How much are you ripping us off for every month, you bastard?

Don't you feel at all guilty? You punk piece of trash.

I'm trying my best.

Have you been locked up before?

No.

Then shut up and get lost.

Bring me some real food, okay?

Yes, I'll bring a lot.

Aigoo!

What's going on?

Well, sometimes in the course of business, things get tangled up.

You get caught in a slanderous plot.

Cheer up. I'll refer you to a skillful lawyer.

V- vivian.

I'll do the Veet project only with you.

For the sake of our Castle Group,

you'll keep up your spirits, won't you?

O- of course, Vivian.

Of course.

Vivian, you are my woman after all.

- Minister. - Yes, what is it?

- This is from the Blue House*. - The Blue House?

Blue House = President's office and residence

Hello?

What do you think? Of the manuscript?

- What is this? - What do you mean?

It's what you and your friends did to my father 25 years ago.

What's your purpose in sending this?

I hear you have a speech scheduled for the day after tomorrow.

Announce this during the speech.

What are you saying?

Why are you changing your story? I arrested Jang Ho!

It's punishment for calling Chairman Jang Yong first.

Th-th-that...

Read that.

Your evil deed 25 years ago, you must tell the whole world about it.

Take heed. I'm watching you.

Where have you been hiding until now?

And what are you going to do about my son?

That's not the problem. Coming here required a huge decision on my part.

Tell us what's going on.

A guy named Choi Kang Ta has shown up.

Who?

Choi Hae Ryong's son, Choi Kang Ta!

What?

Then, that kid lived?

He told me... to read this during my speech. Look.

So he knows everything,

and he wants you to read this in front of the press?

He's no ordinary man.

No matter where I hide, he knows exactly where I am.

He probably already knows that I've come here.

Huh! Sounds like he's a coward.

He controls everything in hiding.

But, if he sets his mind to it, our lives...

Trust me! I'm General Hwang!

I'll put you under guard without any security holes, so don't be scared!

Should I just give up everything, and do as he says?

Crazy jerk!

To think... to think we put our faith in you and...

You read this, and you'll die by my hand!

Chairman Jang!

Look here, Minister Lee. Nothing's going to happen.

Trust us and pull yourself together.

If you keep hiding like this,

he'll think you're an even bigger joke.

Go out there!

We'll watch your back.

What's with that face?

For starters, check yourself into a hospital.

We don't want the Blue House to think anything strange is going on.

What is it, Father?

They've gotten to Minister Lee.

Choi Hae Ryong's son is alive.

Choi Kang Ta.

- Did you know? - Yes.

I think he's been masquerading as Peter Pan.

Peter Pan?

Where is Minister Lee right now?

He has an important speech tomorrow.

We're having him stay at a hospital until then.

I'll take care of security.

If Peter Pan is targeting the Minister,

I'll catch him.

Minister, it's time for your shot.

But, you... you...

It's an animal anesthetic.

It's okay,

since you're an animal, too.

I see you've met your friends even though I warned you not to.

Are you going to do as your friends say?

Or...

Dear Ladies and Gentleman,

I'm Minister of Justice, Lee Hyung Sub.

In this spot today, I am going to confess my crime of 25 years ago.

25 years ago... I killed a person.

If you don't read this, what do you think will happen?

Getting ostracized because of the slush fund getting exposed...

the consequences this time are on a different level.

Minister, you're looking well.

Minister, what do you think of Korea's situation? Please give us a statement.

Please... one statement.

Sunbae.

Please... just one statement.

Next, Minister of Justice, Lee Hyung Sub, will speak.

Minister?

Hello, citizens.

I am Minister of Justice, Lee Hyung Sub.

If you don't read this, what do you think will happen?

I, Lee Hyung Sub,

in this spot today,

as Minister of Justice,

I shall resign.

I had no choice. Let's go now.

I'll escort you.

Why resign all of a sudden?

Minister, is this something that the Blue House is aware of?

Minister, since when have you been considering retirement?

- What is this about? - Minister!

Please make a statement!

Please make a statement!

Minister!

Minister, please give us a statement!

Minister, please give us a statement!

Minister!

Minister.

I had no choice.

The thought that this stalker was watching me from somewhere...

Are you talking about Choi Kang Ta?

Tell me what he looks like, and his voice.

I don't know.

Just seeing his gaze made me feel like my body was going to freeze.

It all feels like a nightmare.

I just can't remember.

- Hello? - I see you're guarding him very well.

Is there really a need to guard a murderer like that?

Choi Kang Ta.

Put Lee Hyung Sub on the line.

H- hello.

Minister Lee, no matter how many more guards you get,

you must know that your life is in my hands.

As payment for ignoring my words,

I will send you a gift.

Step on it! Hurry, step on it!

- Minister... - Let's get out of here!

Quickly, step on it!

Emergency! Minister Lee's car has been shot at. Turn the car around!

Building roof at 2 o'clock!

Hurry, stop the car. The car's going to explode!

Chairman Jang's car exploded too! Stop the car!

No, if you get out now, it's dangerous.

Woo Hyun, he's going to kill me! He said if I didn't do as he said, he was going to kill me!

We've already escaped the danger area. We'll escort you to somewhere safe.

Okay, I'm putting all my trust in you.

- Have you found the sniper's location? - Yes, it's the roof of a building.

- Surround that building! - We've blocked off the exits!

Stop the car. Let me off before you go. Take him to Jang Yong's house.

Go on.

Block all exits, including underground parking exits!

We've got the stairs. Block the elevators!

Oh, look at that!

How many exits are there?

Front and back, and on the 5th floor, a connecting bridge to the next building.

A connecting bridge?

The organization targeting Minister Lee

shot at him in broad daylight.

Block the exits, including the underground parking exits!

We'll need special forces.

He got away. Request blocking of the entrances.

I'd like you to take over security beginning today.

The person that sent you the slush fund list, you said was Choi Kang Ta, correct?

Yeah, that's right! That's him.

How did he get hold of that slush fund list?

Hye Jung's grandfather is still...

Why else do you think Hye Jung transferred schools?

Why don't we just do as he says, and clear Choi Hae Ryong's name?

You do that, and I'll kill you.

Will that bastard take the bait?

Yes, he will definitely get caught.
