All language subtitles for Again My Life S01E14 - Kim Seok Hoon Faces Demise (Awafim.tv)

- Sir!
- Just a comment, please!

I summoned the powerful Cho Tae Sub...

to prove that he is nothing but a despicable scumbag.

I can't wait to see the cards you're holding.

I have finished the job.

I will handle him as instructed.

If you had one more life remaining,

would you use it to arrest Cho Tae Sub again?

Promise me.

Can you make him suffer?

To take him down,

my life began again.

(3 days ago)

Do you know who I am?

Great, then we can make this quick.

I'm here to offer you an opportunity.

The dreams that your father, Assemblyman Lee, couldn't achieve.

The opportunity to realize those dreams.

Why don't you meet Assemblyman Cho Tae Sub?

Please tell him that I will pay him a visit when I'm ready.

So Assemblyman Cho Tae Sub reached out to you first?

That's right.

And you met him?

Yes.

Welcome.

(A day ago)

You do look a lot like him.

Those eyes. They remind me of your father.

The other day, you said you'd visit me when you were ready.

Correct. I needed some time to mentally prepare myself...

for I know what it means to stand before you.

There is a question I ask whenever I meet a young prosecutor.

How would you define the relationship...

between assemblymen and the prosecution?

It's a messed up relationship.

- It's messed up?
- They use each other...

to form cartels whose main currency is power.

If that is not messed up, what is?

And you have contributed a lot...

to establishing such a relationship.

Do you realize what you're saying now?

Like I said, I came prepared.

Fine.

Then let me ask you this.

- Will you join hands with me?
- Yes.

You may have to do things that you don't want to do.

Kim Hee Woo.

Can you keep him in check?

Of course.

I can even get him should you order me to do so.

You mean, you can take him down?

- Correct. But in turn, - In turn, what?

I ask you to give me Jeon Il Bo.

You want Jeon Il Bo?

- Is it because of your father?
- Yes.

I believe you must untangle your past to live in the present.

Jeon Il Bo...

falsely accused my father of taking bribes.

And thanks to him,

my father died in a psychiatric hospital.

I have been caught up in the past.

Those who can't move on cannot even think about the future.

So before I do anything else, I would like to get closure.

Sir, I am even willing to take down Kim Hee Woo,

who is my longtime friend.

So if you'd like to join hands with me...

I must pay the price?

- Yes.
- Do you realize how brazen this is?

Then I'll just leave...

and continue to be stuck in the past.

Don't worry.

I will not tell anyone what happened here today.

However, there is one thing you need to know.

There are many people who can replace Jeon Il Bo,

but I'm the only prosecutor who can keep Hee Woo in check.

Then let me ask you this.

After you take care of your past, then what?

What would you like to do after that?

I'm not sure.

I've never really thought about the future.

I see.

Get Jeon Il Bo.

I'll paint your future for you.

- I see.
- Funny, isn't it?

Never in your wildest dreams, right?

Me and Cho Tae Sub.

Yes. Funny indeed.

But that's not what your face says.

I'm a little worried for you.

But the thing is,

you said you wanted to go head-to-head with me.

So is it okay that you're telling me everything on your mind?

Are you doing this for the sake of balance in this game?

That's right.

Come on. You're about to shoot lasers out of your eyes.

First, let's take down Kim Seok Hoon as we discussed.

Our showdown can wait until after that.

Kim Seok Hoon's wife has done some problematic things.

Let's finish him off fast.

(Again My Life)

Here.

Kim Young Il's shares in Chunha Holdings.

It has finally found its rightful owner.

Make sure you're free in the evening the day after tomorrow.

You'll be contacted regarding the Prosecutor General appointment.

Please tell Assemblyman Cho...

that he can look forward to seeing a new and better prosecution.

There's actually something he mentioned.

The prosecution's new beginning.

And the first case that will reveal this new beginning.

In order to show the public that the prosecution applies the law...

to everyone equally including the major business leaders,

Assemblyman Cho suggested that you investigate Kim Hee A,

the daughter of Chairman Kim Gun Young.

I like that story.

I'll be off, then.

Okay, I'll take you out for a steak dinner next time.

My gosh. Don't buy us jjajangmyeon after saying that.

That was Director Kim Jin Woo, wasn't it?

Yes.

I wonder what he's doing here.

I don't know the exact situation, but this one thing is for sure.

Cho Tae Sub wants Kim Seok Hoon to be the next Prosecutor General.

Then what will happen to you, sir?

I'll probably get kicked out.

Before his promotion, he'll want to show others what would happen...

if they fell out of favor with him.

No, that won't happen.

What are you saying?

We'll bring him down before he can even get there.

Kim Seok Hoon...

He won't be able to get out of it this time.

Hey, Han Mi.

Okay, got it.

You should see this.

(Prosecutor General Nominee Kim Seok Hoon Accused of Corruption)

What's going on?

A little while ago,

I received an anonymous letter.

The informant wishes to stay anonymous.

I'm sure you remember this.

The case that threw the nation into an uproar.

The drug and human trafficking case in Gimsan.

This is from someone involved in the case.

Someone who was involved in the drug...

and human trafficking case that threw the nation into an uproar...

wishes to report the only person...

who was let off unpunished.

The keyman in the case...

who was protected and let off by those with power...

is none other than Assemblyman Gu Wook Chung in Gimsan.

And the person who protected him and let him off...

was the Prosecutor General nominee...

and the Chief of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office,

Kim Seok Hoon.

All the credible evidence that backs up the claim...

made in the anonymous letter...

made me realize the gravity of this issue.

So I discussed the issue with the members of my party...

before calling for this press conference.

I, Hwang Jin Yong of the Daehan Party,

hereby file a complaint against Assemblyman Gu Wook Chung...

of the Minguk Party for damaging the decorum...

and dishonoring his fellow assemblymen by engaging...

in bribery, sexual bribery, and bid rigging...

as well as against Kim Seok Hoon,

the Chief of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office.

Gu Wook Chung, finally!

Yes.

A used train ticket must be tossed, you know.

Yes!

Now, this is where the real fun begins.

(Eastern District Prosecutors' Office Calls for Press Briefing)

Oh, there.

(Eastern District Prosecutors' Office Calls for Press Briefing)

Prosecutor Kim Kyu Ri at the Eastern District Office?

I am Prosecutor Kim Kyu Ri at the Eastern District Office.

During our recent investigation...

of tax evasion cases involving the rich...

who evade their tax obligations through legal loopholes...

What's this?

Pass it along to Chief Yoon Jong Gi.

Tell him that Chief Kim Seok Hoon...

is trying to hunt him down using Choi Kang Jin...

and that this will be his shield.

(Name of Artwork, Estimated Value)

We have secured evidence that Park Min Young,

the wife of Chief Prosecutor Kim Seok Hoon,

committed money laundering and tax evasion...

through various means...

while selling and purchasing expensive art pieces.

JQ Gallery, which is owned by Park Min Young,

manipulated their accounting records...

for sales of high-priced art pieces...

- Kim Seok Hoon.
- to avoid the corporate tax.

You want to hunt me down?

The court just issued a warrant against JQ Gallery,

which is run by Park Min Young's sister on paper,

so the prosecution will now...

- conduct a search and seizure.
- I won't go down alone.

Let's go down together, Seok Hoon.

Did the order come from Yoon Jong Gi?

We're checking.

Hwang Jin Yong and the Eastern District Office.

It's odd.

I get the feeling that there's more coming.

He knows that I'm backing Kim Seok Hoon...

and that I can easily make this blow over.

Sir, it's Chief Kim Seok Hoon.

- Tell him to meet me here.
- Yes, sir.

Yes, you can come now.

What could it be?

I think he has something bigger prepared.

Gu Wook Chung and Kim Seok Hoon's wife.

Will Kim Seok Hoon manage to get out of this unscathed again?

Kim Seok Hoon will take a hit.

But to Cho Tae Sub, this isn't even a threat.

However, Cho Tae Sub will be torn.

He can pull him out of the swamp once again,

but is Kim Seok Hoon really worth all the trouble?

Kim Seok Hoon will pay Cho Tae Sub a visit.

He'll flounder desperately to survive...

only to find out that there's no getting out of the swamp.

The last bullet...

is aimed at Kim Seok Hoon's heart.

(Agrees to transfer 550,000 shares)

(The company shall pay the transfer tax.)

(Transferor Park Sang Man)

This completes the share transfer process.

Sang Man. I mean, CEO Park.

Thanks for everything.

No problem. I got to see you and...

Excuse me for a moment.

Hey, Hee Woo. Yes.

Kim Young Il's shares have been transferred to me.

I see, will do. Thanks.

All right.

Mr. Park. Make sure Park Dae Ho hears...

that I now own the shares in Chunha Holdings...

that JQ Constructions had, before it's made public.

Yes, ma'am.

(Gu Wook Chung's Home and Office Searched and Seized)

(Prosecutor General Nominee's Wife Investigated for Tax Evasion)

(JQ Gallery Evades Taxes Using Art)

Okay, got it.

Sir, that was Mr. Park Dae Ho.

Kim Young Il's shares in Chunha Holdings...

were actually used as collateral.

- What?
- The problem is,

the holder of the security right, Park Sang Man of PSM Investment,

sold the shares.

To whom?

Kim Hee A, Director of Management and Strategy at Chunha.

Collateral?

I'm curious as to whether Kim Seok Hoon really didn't know.

Sir, Chief Kim Seok Hoon is here.

Let him in.

I'm sorry, sir. I really had no idea.

I'll arrest my wife at once.

I'll get Kim Hee A too.

Please give me 5 days. Just 5 days.

- Five days?
- Yes, sir.

I'll take care of Gu Wook Chung for you.

You handle your family matters.

Yes, sir.

I don't want you pulled out of consideration.

I have a lot planned for you once you become Prosecutor General.

So you must hold out until you get there.

Yes, sir.

What?

Sir, there's something you need to see.

This is serious.

Hello.

I am Kim Han Mi.

Prosecutor General Nominee Kim Seok Hoon is my father.

I'm his child born out of wedlock.

My mother, Kim Young Hee,

supported and took care of him while he was studying for the bar exam.

But as soon as he passed the exam,

he left my mother.

This was it.

He threatened my mother never to tell anyone about it,

so she registered me under her family register,

and I've had to conceal my birth father's name until now.

I was never able to live an ordinary life...

So this was it?

- From an early age...
- Using Gu Wook Chung...

and the wife's corruption to draw attention...

to trigger a fatal blow using his love child.

He threatened me,

but I've held out...

telling myself that I must escape his grip.

The reason I'm standing before you today...

What that lady is saying...

What's your take on it?

Prosecutor General Nominee Kim Seok Hoon.

Stop bringing further disgrace to our country.

I suppose she's not making it up.

Sir.

I'll take care of this.

Don't kneel!

This just means that we have one more thing...

to take care of. That's all.

You may leave.

Go...

and finish things off as a prosecutor should.

Tell Kim Hee Woo.

He may arrest Kim Seok Hoon.

This thing with his secret child. It can't be undone.

Yes, sir.

Assemblyman Cho says...

that you may go ahead and arrest Chief Kim Seok Hoon.

I've relayed your message, sir.

Did he ask you why?

No. He just said, "Okay".

Even this time, he didn't ask for the reason?

No.

Hello, Oh Min Guk speaking.

It's me.

Who knew I'd be waiting for your call, Prosecutor Kim?

I'm a little busy right now, so we'll catch up another time.

There's something I need you to look into.

I saw the news just now.

You need info on Gu Wook Chung's other corrupt deeds, right?

Yes, that's right.

I already compiled a list. I knew it'd come in handy one day.

While doing the digging, I also found out that Gu Wook Chung...

bought a painting from JQ Gallery...

and has played golf with Kim Seok Hoon in the past.

I just emailed you everything. Good luck putting the puzzle together.

Okay, thank you.

No problem.

I should head down now, Sung Ho.

Tell the investigators to meet me in the lobby.

Okay, hurry.

Okay.

- Oh, he's here!
- It's him.

I apologize.

It's okay. Go ahead.

Kim Seok Hoon.

You are under arrest for abuse of power.

You have the right to remain silent and the right to an attorney.

Anything you say can and will be...

used against you in a court of law.

Do you admit all the allegations?

How do you feel?

- Just a comment, sir.
- Say a few words!

- Please step back.
- Sir, just a comment!

You may plead the Fifth.

But as you know, it could put you at a disadvantage.

So I'll just start asking you questions.

Assemblyman Gu Wook Chung's corrupt deeds.

Have you never helped him cover them up?

(Voice Memo 001)

At the time, I, Jeon Seok Kyu,

was the chief of the Gimsan Branch Office.

Right before the press briefing...

regarding the drug and human trafficking case in Gimsan,

I received a call...

asking me to leave out Assemblyman Gu Wook Chung,

who was clearly and deeply involved in the case.

The order came from Chief Prosecutor Kim Seok Hoon,

who was the deputy chief of the Central District Office at the time.

As per his order, I left Gu Wook Chung's name out...

when announcing the names of those involved in the case.

(Voice Memo 001)

Then there's me, another witness.

I'm sure you know this.

The names on Assemblyman Hwang Jin Yong's list...

of those involved in the sexual bribery case...

didn't match the names on the list you gave me.

That wasn't my decision.

You know that.

Are you...

trying to rope him into this?

As for your charges concerning JQ Constructions and Gallery,

we will investigate them with the Eastern District Office.

I bet you've been given orders...

to take me down.

I don't think you can get out of it this time.

And about Kim Han Mi.

Many years ago,

you visited a police station to get her out...

when she got herself into trouble.

How did you know?

I was the friend who helped her that day.

I'm not sure what Han Mi means to you,

but she is my dear friend.

She thought long and hard until she finally made the decision...

to go public with the truth.

I just want you to know that.

Now, let me ask you.

Do you admit the charges against you?

Yes, I do.

Hello.

I am Prosecutor Kim Hee Woo at the Central District Office.

I will announce the results of the investigation...

on Chief Prosecutor Kim Seok Hoon.

The Anti-Corruption Investigation Department...

has arrested and indicted Chief Prosecutor Kim...

on charges of suppression and concealment of crimes...

and abuse of power.

Chief Prosecutor Kim Seok Hoon...

protected Assemblyman Gu Wook Chung...

by deliberately concealing his crimes.

Moreover, he used his authority to influence the investigation...

on the assemblymen involved in the sexual bribery case.

- Director Han.
- Yes, sir.

Have you seen a perfectly smooth tree bark without a single flaw?

No, sir.

Right?

Kim Hee Woo can't be an exception.

- Find his flaw.
- Yes, sir.

He saw my weakness.

So I need to know at least one of his.

Bribery, perhaps?

No, not that.

He said he came to me because of his belief.

Material things won't work.

- Look for something else.
- Yes, sir.

What do you think of Yoon Jong Gi as the next Prosecutor General?

I believe he is the best option we have now.

I've vetted him. No private or family matters...

that could pose a problem down the road.

And before Kim Jung Taek, he had no ties to politicians.

And based on the press briefing today,

I can deduce that he has no ties to Hwang Jin Yong.

I see. What about the chief position at the Central District Office?

- I'm not sure.
- Director Kim?

What about Jeon Seok Kyu?

Jeon Seok Kyu?

He's never been under the aegis of the people in power.

He's honest and loyal. Once he swears his loyalty,

he won't betray you.

- Arrange a meeting.
- Yes, sir.

- Director Han.
- Yes, sir.

Tell Yoon Jong Gi that I want to have dinner with him.

Yes, sir.

Right, what about Gu Wook Chung?

He keeps calling.

Just leave him be.

We don't have time to worry about small fry like him.

Understood, sir.

Jeon Seok Kyu...

How do you feel now that you've arrested Chief Kim?

Not sure.

Our partnership ends today.

How about we grab a drink and celebrate? What do you say?

Sorry, I've got plans.

Plans?

With who?

Don't look at me like that. It was my choice.

I should've tried harder to talk you out of it. Sorry.

Why are you apologizing?

It must've been a difficult decision.

You did well.

Do you know how I feel right now?

For the first time ever,

I feel relieved.

What? Don't look at me like you pity me.

I told you, I'm fine.

Don't worry. I mean it.

All right.

(Mom)

I think that's enough drinking for me today.

I should go comfort my mom.

I feel good, but I guess my mom doesn't.

From now on,

it's going to get really tough.

Why? Because people know my face?

Maybe I should become a celebrity.

Didn't I look pretty good on screen?

You punk. See you around.

Were you disappointed?

No, sir.

I was.

Your secret investigation on Kim Seok Hoon's wife.

You should've given me a heads up.

I'm sorry, sir.

I felt a man like Kim Seok Hoon...

didn't deserve to be the prosecutor general.

- Your reason?
- Kim Seok Hoon had a mantra.

"To make a prosecution that doesn't compromise with politics."

I figured that mantra could one day...

lead to Kim Seok Hoon hindering your political career.

That's why...

I see. I understand your point.

Chief Prosecutor Yoon Jong Gi.

Yes, sir?

The prosecution you dream of making.

Try to make it a reality now.

- Sir?
- Prepare for a hearing.

You'll be getting a call tomorrow.

Sir...

Thank you.

Do your best.

(Prosecutor Kim Hee Woo)

(JQ Constructions Case Report)

(Chief Prosecutor Kim Seok Hoon Concealment Charge Case Report)

I've cut off Cho Tae Sub's right-hand man Kim Seok Hoon.

Next up on the chopping block...

is Cho Tae Sub's source of funds, Park Dae Ho.

Kim Seok Hoon's wife and son have been arrested.

JQ Constructions will be out in the market soon.

Make sure it's yours.

The construction business will flourish again.

JQ Constructions will play many roles.

Yes, sir.

Make no mistakes. Keep a close eye on it.

- Take it over on time, got it?
- Yes, sir.

And I will be needing your Chunha Holdings shares...

sometime soon.

So get it ready.

- Director Han.
- Yes, sir.

My visit to Chunha is long overdue.

Shall I let Vice Chairman Kim Yong Jun know?

No, contact Kim Hee A.

Yes, sir.

(Chunha)

(Director Kim Hee A)

It's been a while.

I was thinking of visiting you soon.

I didn't expect you'd beat me to it.

- Is that so?
- Why did you do it?

The special investigation with the National Tax Service.

You say you care about the nation's economy.

But your actions speak otherwise.

- Me?
- Yes.

Why didn't you come by and ask me then?

Did your pride get in the way?

Of course not.

That vocabulary doesn't exist for a businessman.

The NTS investigation won't stop easily.

Corporation, chemicals, and shipbuilding.

They'll dig into every branch.

Would you like to stop it?

Then there's only one way.

How long do you plan to keep the chairman's seat empty?

Make Vice Chairman Kim Yong Jun the chairman.

That is my offer.

This is the first time...

you're revealing your anxious side.

You must be worried I have Kim Young Il's shares.

How I might use it to become chairman.

You read me wrong, Director Kim.

I'm here to make my last offer.

- Your last offer?
- That's right.

The three of you did not understand your responsibilities and duties...

as Chairman Kim Gun Young's children.

You're holding a power struggle to take over the Chairman's seat.

The world is changing at an enormous speed.

Yet you three are fighting to fulfill each others' greed.

How much longer must I wait?

My patience is running thin.

There's something I learned from my father.

"Don't do business that'll cause you loss."

If you want to make a deal, bring me something beneficial.

Instead of a threat.

Think wisely. Time is running out.

Once the prosecution stabilizes, who do you think...

their next target will be?

Let me repeat myself.

Threatening me will not work.

Thanks for the coffee.

Let's go.

- I'll head out for lunch.
- All right.

(Prosecutor Kim Hee Woo)

Aren't you going to eat? Let's grab lunch.

Sure. What about Chief Jeon?

I don't know. He got a call and left all of a sudden.

Who do you think will replace Kim Seok Hoon?

I'm curious too.

But I'm not quite sure.

It's a shame Chief Jeon is an eyesore to the higher-ups.

It would be great if he becomes Chief Prosecutor...

and eventually Prosecutor General.

That would be great.

All right then, what do you want to eat?

Let's eat something with soup today.

- How does codfish soup sound?
- Sounds perfect.

I heard you're well-respected by your junior colleagues.

That's news to me, sir.

I'm just an incompetent prosecutor.

You are humble too.

I would like to know why you asked to see me.

The chief prosecutor position at the Central office is empty.

I think it is incredibly inappropriate...

for an active prosecutor to discuss the prosecution's personnel...

with a politician.

What's the problem...

with two men meeting up?

We can develop a relationship today.

Between you and I?

Is there an issue?

I'm thinking of giving you the position...

of Central District's Chief Prosecutor, Chief Jeon.

But I have a condition.

Assemblyman Hwang Jin Yong.

Get him kicked out of the political field.

Also, with this new position, you should start with a clean slate.

Cut ties with everyone you've been working with...

and make Choi Kang Jin your right-hand man. That's all.

Why is it me?

This is exactly why.

Everyone else would kill for this opportunity.

But you ask me why.

It's because you're prudent and responsible.

You also never go back on your decision.

Central District's Chief Prosecutor.

Every prosecutor dreams of this job.

I'm sure you know very well...

that this opportunity is rare.

Depending on how you act,

you could even become the prosecutor general one day.

I thought you had plans. Was it just for a meal?

Yes.

Chief.

Did anyone ask you to become Central District's Chief Prosecutor?

What?

Why are you so startled?

What's this nonsense?

Well, I was in the breakroom...

and I heard some prosecutors talking.

- About what?
- They said you were on the list...

of candidates for Chief Prosecutor.

It seemed like a lot of prosecutors were rooting for you.

Stop your nonsense.

What's the status of the arraignment you're supposed to report on today?

I will report it right away.

(Division Chief Jeon Seok Kyu)

(Born in Haesan, Gyeonggi Province. Hankuk University Law Graduate.)

Jeon Seok Kyu, a prosecutor with principles.

He simply hasn't had the opportunity to abandon his principles.

He will know now.

He's also older, so he'll understand.

What it means...

to live with principles.

But why did you want him to take Choi Kang Jin in?

You said they don't get along.

You can't have everything.

If he can't obey such simple orders,

then I can't take him in.

(No Parking)

When did your punches improve so much?

It did?

It's not bad, is it?

You could call yourself a pro.

It's great.

I'm relieved.

There's someone I've been wanting to go up against.

You have someone like that?

Yes.

You might get to witness it soon.

Is that so?

(Assemblyman Hwang Jin Yong)

Hello, sir?

You called for me?

Have a seat.

Yes, sir.

Congratulations on being elected as the party leader.

Thank you.

You pushed me to do it.

But I believe it was the people's hearts that gave me the position.

They say the people's hearts is a spiritual calling.

That's why I feel a lot of pressure.

Please be a good party leader.

Yes.

Of course.

Oh, right.

About the prosecutor general position.

East District's Yoon Jong Gi.

I think he'll be getting the job.

It's as I expected.

He's one of Cho Tae Sub's men.

But there's a lack of trust between the two.

Cho Tae Sub...

knows that Yoon Jong Gi has teamed up with Kim Jung Taek.

And Yoon Jong Gi...

knows that Cho Tae Sub was going after him...

through Kim Seok Hoon.

Meaning this contaminated trust will be broken soon.

Yes.

Before that happens,

we'll have to attack Cho Tae Sub again.

Yes, we will.

The decision of who will become...

Central District's chief prosecutor hasn't been decided yet.

But there's been talk at the National Assembly...

that Division Chief Jeon Seok Kyu might get it.

I thought you should know.

Let's grab lunch.

Sure. What about Chief Jeon?

I don't know. He got a call and left all of a sudden.

Hey, what's up?

Chief.

It's the list of assemblymen who received sexual briberies...

that previous Chief Prosecutor Kim Seok Hoon left out.

A reinvestigation is inevitable.

Of course! I'll take this one.

Okay.

Sung Ho. How about the Gimsan Team...

has a gathering tonight?

Sounds great. What do you say, Chief?

Chief?

- Chief!
- What? Yes, what is it?

Is something on your mind? You've been acting strange.

Let's have a gathering today, Chief.

I'll treat you two to Hanwoo Beef.

I'm totally down!

The youngest wants to treat us. You must go.

It's my wife's birthday today.

Go on without me.

Wait, his wife's birthday is in the summer.

I'm getting a feeling.

The Chief seems a little different.

How so?

I just feel uneasy. Something seems off.

Is it really on you today?

Yes, of course.

Where should we go? Let's get going.

I can't arrest Assemblyman Hwang Jin Yong.

Are you rejecting my offer then?

If someone's guilty, I'll lock him up even if it's my own kid.

But I can't arrest someone who is innocent.

Are you still that naive?

I heard your junior colleagues are outrunning you.

Aren't you ashamed you're falling behind?

Not at all, sir.

I'm sure you ran a background check on me.

I was born this way.

You struggled to get yourself to Seoul.

But it seems you'll get an ocean-view office again.

I like the ocean.

Did you think those threats would scare me?

I can see why you're popular amongst your junior colleagues.

Chief Jeon.

You have a unique talent of getting people intrigued.

I reject your offer to live as a dog.

Goodbye then.

Sit down.

If you leave now,

it won't stop with you leaving Seoul.

You may lose everything...

for upholding your principles.

You asked why I chose you?

I need someone I can trust.

Not some punk who wags their tongue...

and comes up with tricks to ride my coattails.

I don't want that.

I need someone who is honest and upright like you.

Then guarantee this for me.

For the office to have authority over investigations and personnel.

I will reconsider then.

You're asking me to give way this time?

Yes, sir.

Aren't you afraid to suggest such a condition to me?

It wasn't a condition but a right.

A right?

Get back to work.

A right, you say?

I said I would buy you the good stuff.

Gosh, this is enough.

So this is the place you ended up without me?

I thought you were eating beef.

- Chief.
- Chief.

I knew I would find you here.

This is true loyalty.

How could we get Hanwoo Beef without you?

Right. I'm so proud of you, my dear juniors.

By the way,

you've been acting strangely lately. Did you know that?

What do you mean?

Are you all right?

I'm hungry.

Dining with someone uncomfortable...

made even a fancy meal unenjoyable.

- Are you talking about your wife?
- No. Cho Tae Sub.

Was it about the appointment of the Chief Prosecutor?

So the rumors were true? Tell us what happened.

There's no way I would end up with a fancy title.

I was turned down.

Chief Prosecutor Kim is detained in the Eastern Detention Center.

Even if he is acquitted of his charges in the trial,

he's considered unethical due to the illegitimate child.

I don't think he can return.

Kim Seok Hoon.

I have grown attached to him and trusted him too.

But...

I shouldn't have trusted greed.

Then can I trust Kim Hee Woo?

Director Han.

Did you prepare a leash, befitting Kim Hee Woo?

It's ready.

- Go ahead.
- Yes, sir.

I told you I was fine.

Why did you drag me out in the morning of my day off?

- I'm tired.
- They were worried about you.

They've been nagging me.

- Han Mi.
- What's that?

Yeon Seok and I pooled money and got it for you. But I paid more.

When I watched you on TV,

you looked great, but your skin looked a bit dry.

What are you talking about? I went viral because of my beauty.

- On which website?
- Don't you ever go online?

I didn't see it.

I'm already pretty, but I'll look even better with this.

What am I going to do?

I look gorgeous.

Thanks.

I heard you took a break from work.

Don't just stay at home. Go on a trip or something.

You're the only friend who's worried about me.

Actually, I wanted to get some fresh air during my break.

So I'll go someplace far.

How about Bali, the paradise of passion and romance?

Mr. Kim.

It's still cold outside. Isn't it too soon for short-sleeve shirts?

Goodness. Do you know why he's wearing this T-shirt?

Listen. The next-door owner...

gave it to him as a souvenir from a trip.

So he's wearing it to show Hee Woo even when he's too cold.

My gosh. Wait. You're making me feel uncomfortable.

Hee Woo. I have one for you too.

- Here. What do you think?
- Really?

- Hey, how do I look?
- You look great.

- I do?
- A man of Bali.

That's enough. Stop it.

Bali is great. You should go there on a family trip.

You've been to Bali?

Their oceans and sunsets are just amazing.

I see. I like the Pacific Ocean, but I've never been to Bali.

I think something might happen in Bali.

Then we should all go once I wrap up this case.

It will be a family trip.

Really? When?

Soon. I'll take you on a trip soon.

Then I should start practicing Bali dance.

You mean, belly dance.

It's the same thing.

Gosh. You're flexible.

Hello.

- Let's eat.
- Sure.

You'll be happy with any dish from our menu.

- Okay.
- You can't join us.

- Seriously.
- Come on.

Han Mi, delicious food is the way to de-stress.

- Eat your fill.
- Okay.

Thanks. This helped me lighten my mood.

Don't thank me. Get home safely.

- I'll call you.
- Okay.

Are you done with your food?

I'll ring you up. That'll be 18 dollars.

- Here.
- Okay.

Thank you.

This is the hotel I'm staying at.

I came here because people said the food here was good.

But I don't know how to get back.

Should I call you a taxi?

I want to walk there.

Could you tell me how to get there?

Well,

sure. Come with me.

If you go this way,

- you'll see an art center.
- Okay.

Turn right from the art center.

Then go two blocks down, and you'll see your hotel.

Okay. Thank you.

Bye.

I made contact.

Tell the assemblyman that I can do it.

I'll make a promise.

(Profile of Prosecutor Kim Hee Woo)

If you manage to put the leash on him,

we'll bring in helicopters for you.

You want me to seduce a man?

You got the wrong person.

I'm not some street-level talent.

Do you think I consider you some street-level talent?

And does he look like a street urchin to you?

He's a mere prosecutor. A prosecutor without any title.

He doesn't exactly look important.

Don't judge a book by its cover.

He won't be an easy target.

You think so?

All men fall at my feet to have me.

More so...

for men who seek power.

Having me...

will make the best accessory.

Was your name Jung Seo Yeon?

Men who seek power will want to have you?

Then answer me.

Do...

I...

want you?

How arrogant.

Do your best with this guy.

This guy...

will be the key to your business. Do you get that?

How easy.

You startled me. What are you doing here?

What's going on? You've totally fallen for her.

- What?
- Are you interested in her?

I've never seen you stare at a woman that intensely before.

You know? Hee A, Han Mi, and Kyu Ri.

You have so many pretty women around you.

I get it. You've been single all these years...

because women like her are your type.

A woman we might call a femme fatale.

No.

If that's your type, you would've liked Han Mi.

Be honest. You enjoy this, don't you?

I'm jealous when you look at other people.

I see.

Enough is enough.

- Hey, Hee A.
- Oh, Hee A.

Now?

Sang Man too?

JQ Constructions will be on the market soon.

But only one company will dive in to buy JQ Constructions...

because Cho Tae Sub warned all the other companies...

not to get involved in JQ Constructions' acquisition.

So which company will get involved?

A paper company that hasn't done anything up until now.

The CEO is just a figurehead.

Someone else is putting in the money.

- Is it...
- Yes.

Park Dae Ho.

So once he acquires JQ Constructions...

He will give them work and sell it at a high price...

to another company.

And he will use that black money to buy...

the shares of Chunha Holdings.

If we don't act fast,

we won't be able to acquire JQ Constructions.

You're right. Since he's the only one bidding,

Park Dae Ho will have his guard down.

That's why I want to back you up.

This rich lady wants to make an investment.

What do you say?

Sounds great.

(Letter of Intent)

Are you serious about this?

Are you sure you have that much funds?

How can I buy a company without any money?

I put down a slightly higher number than the market value.

Another company is showing interest to buy as well.

I wonder if they will guarantee your job.

How dare you?

If you help me out to the end,

I will secure your future.

So before I get involved,

I want you to convince the other executives.

This is CEO Park Sang Man.

Please give it a read.

He sees a bright future with our company.

This is CEO Park Sang Man.

Hello.

Please give it a read.

He sees a bright future with our company.

Please help us out this time.

What? A fly got into the bidding war?

Yes. The company is called PSM Investment.

They offered 300 million dollars.

We can outbid them then.

Go to JQ Constructions and tell them that we'll pay whatever they want...

and that we won't ask for a lower price.

And get the money we need from Bando Bank.

Yes, sir.

(CEO Park Dae Ho)

Let's investigate Bando Bank.

(Records of Illegal Loans from Bando Bank)

We brought down Kim Seok Hoon.

Park Dae Ho of Bando Bank is next.

Hold on.

Now is not a good time.

Come on. That has never held us back.

Kim Seok Hoon is arrested.

And Yoon Jong Gi is nominated to be the Prosecutor General.

There's a lot going on now.

We should read the situation before we proceed.

Yes, sir.

But...

I will get it ready.

They offered 320 million dollars.

Is that so?

Then let's bid 400 million dollars.

What?

Hey, 400 million dollars?

Yes.

I don't have that much money.

Really?

I thought a family of a conglomerate would have that much money.

It wouldn't be easy to get that kind of money at short notice.

You... Don't think of asking to use company funds for this.

No. I was just joking.

- No need to prepare anything.
- What?

But I need you to start some smoke,

so Park Dae Ho digs his own grave.

And there's someone I would like to meet.

Director of the Financial Supervisory Service?

The director always attends the FKI's meetings.

Right. We have a meeting tonight.

Do you want to meet the director?

No. The intel you just gave me is enough.

It was a great honor to meet you tonight, sir.

- See you around.
- Take care, sir.

(Closed for Cleaning)

Gosh. I've always wanted to meet you, sir.

Director Kim Yong Min of the Financial Supervisory Service.

Nice to meet you.

I'm Prosecutor Kim Hee Woo of the Central District Office.

This contains files on Bando Bank.

I saw a lot of red flags.

This must be the result of the FSS' negligence...

when the FSS should be monitoring banks.

So what? Are you going to arrest me?

Gosh. No way.

How could a mere prosecutor arrest someone like you?

If you know your place, bow down politely and leave.

Then I'll pretend this never happened.

The general election is around the corner.

Just like always, politicians will throw dirt at the opposing parties.

But...

what if this were to end up...

in the hands of Assemblyman Hwang Jin Yong?

I heard your term lasts three years.

But I wonder...

if you'll be able to finish your term.

Are you threatening me?

I'm asking for cooperation.

I just need you to do one thing.

Then...

the opposition party will never get this file.

(CEO Park Dae Ho)

Sir.

Sir.

We can't pull money from Bando Bank.

What do you mean?

The FSS sent a notice to keep the equity-to-asset ratio...

to Bando Bank.

What? All of a sudden?

Then how much funds can we utilize?

Only 200 million dollars, sir.

- What about DH Money?
- Less than 50 million dollars, sir.

What should we do?

Make no mistakes.

Park Dae Ho will be scared of Cho Tae Sub.

He failed to secure Kim Young Il's shares.

And as for Bando Bank, the financial authorities imposed...

a warning for failing to meet the percentage by the BIS.

Well, Park Dae Ho.

The CEO of Bando Bank.

But he's a gangster deep down.

Once he's cornered, the gangster side of him...

will come out again.

Yes, sir.

The Chief Prosecutor of the Central District Office has been appointed.

It's Jeon Seok Kyu.

Isn't this good news to you?

There's no way I would end up with a fancy title.

I was turned down.

(Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office)

The Chief Prosecutor is coming in.

- Congratulations, sir!
- Congratulations, sir!

We should go, sir.

(Again My Life)

We only live once...

and get to make only one decision.

Hand over Kim Seok Hoon's case.

If I were Park Dae Ho, I would reach out to Cho Tae Sub.

Cho Tae Sub always thinks about his next steps.

He's a tough match.

I found out Cho Tae Sub is looking into Sang Man.

Political battles are about going after...

your opponent's weakest spot.

No!

I'm going to bring you down.
