Isn't that the audit team leader?

Is someone in trouble?

-Who?
-I wouldn't know.

Huh? He's headed for Mr. Kang's office.

What are you doing?

Do you want me to interview you here?

Tell me what this is about.

I need to get back to budgeting.

You forged the company seal?

What?

You're saying I made this?

MR. KANG IL-GWON

At 2 p.m. on September 17,

the head of finance Kang Il-gwon opened
a fake company account

at the Myeong-dong branch
of Namyeong Bank,

had the trust department designate
a beneficiary and deposit 20 million won.

I withdrew that money and paid it back
a month later.

So you admit embezzlement.

Mr. Shin, Mr. Shin.

I have a disease called
thoracic aortic aneurysm.

The cost is astronomical.

It had to be done in time,

and I paid with the company's money

so I could live!

I did it to stay alive.

Please have mercy on me!

You have two options.

First is to resign.

Second is to refuse the resignation offer
and sue the company.

If you choose the latter,
we will go to the police station.

But the money is all there.

Let's say it was a loan…

The company isn't a bank.

Make your choice.
Is it the first or the second?

It was one month, one month!

I returned the money in a month!

I worked my fingers to the bone
for 20 years.

So how could you so mercilessly kick me
out like this for a single mistake?

Mr. Shin…

my daughter is a talented ballerina.

If I resigned, I'd be stealing
my little girl's dream.

Who would hire a man of my age?

So, please…

please help me out, Mr. Shin.

I beg you, Mr. Shin--

The 20 million won…

was only a dry run, wasn't it?

What?

Your true intent was…

INVOICE

…to obtain the deposit
for the debt payment

of 25 billion won.

Even though you knew
the company would go bankrupt

if the deposit for
the debt payment was lost…

you forged the company seal,

opened an account without authorization,

and did a dry run with a smaller amount.

The company trusted you with its finances

and you completely betrayed them.

Mr. Shin, that was…

You

tried to steal

the dreams of all the daughters…

of this company's employees.

You sneaky little rat.

BUILDING 102, BUILDING 112

Mr. Kwak, let's link arms.

Seriously!

Oh, brain freeze.

Perhaps because this is our last drink,

I'm drinking more than usual.

Don't say this is the last one.

Won't you visit us?

Of course I will.

Thank you for everything.

I may be leaving,

but I want you to survive!

I have so much to say.

I mean, President Hwang Se-woong.

Screw his title.

The minute Hwang Se-woong
was promoted, he forced you

to resign because you're not his man
and treated you like dirt.

Do you think that's fair?

You'll probably be my successor.

That's not the point, Mr. Kwak.

I'm really sad right now.

I'm upset.

I heard this is the result of
the tension between the president

and the vice president.

Hwang Se-woong might be the president,

but the vice president has all the power.

You guys, be smart about office politics.

Which one should we side with?

Hwang Se-woong or Hwang Dae-woong?

Anyway, the two brothers' fighting

is causing our team pain and suffering.

Ms. Ok, you have me.

I will give you all the support you need.

-Okay.
-That's great.

-Sang-ho.
-Yes?

You're savvy in office politics.

Thank you.

Then I'll side with the deputy head.

Did you see that?
Gu Han-soo, good for you!

Hey, Gu Han-soo,

you're choosing him over me?

-It's an obvious choice.
-Ms. Ok,

Mr. Yeom is above you.

You need to work harder.

Seo-jin, what about you?

Office politics don't interest me.

We all work for the same company, no?

-Oh, how boring.
-Right.

Seo-jin's the smart one.

Thank you.

Don't devote your life to the company,
or you'll end up like me.

How can you tell them such a thing?

You have to work
as if your life depends on it.

What took you so long?

Welcome.

But I heard you were working late.

Still, my friend is leaving,

so I had to buy him
a consolation drink, right?

It's not like I'm dying,
so what's with all the fuss?

Call it a congratulatory drink!

Let me pour you a drink.

Okay, sure.

Chicken with this
would be a perfect pairing.

Han-soo is so sweet, isn't he?

Because I taught him well.

Hey, take good care of
my friend after I'm gone.

Of course. No need to worry.

Okay, okay, a toast!

-Okay!
-Hey!

Congratulations, congratulations.

A congratulatory drink!

Congratulations!

I didn't drink because I'm working late.

Okay.

Wow, you sound just like your mother.

Okay, I got it. Bye.

Hey, what's going on?

Was that your daughter?

She nags me even more
ever since she's gotten married.

Look, isn't my girl beautiful?

She has such a beautiful smile.

She doesn't take after you at all.

That's why she's beautiful.
She takes after her mom.

It's cold. Let's go inside.

No, no, I have to go.

And I've paid for everything.

But that's too much.

Oh, it's okay.

-Thank you.
-Sure.

You've been working a lot of nights, huh?

Well, it's nothing out of the ordinary.

It must be difficult.

But at least the crane accident
is all taken care of.

Yes, you're right.

This is for you.

You stepped on a nail at the site
the other day and ruined your shoe.

Wear these instead.

Mr. Bae. Mr. Bae!

Thank you so much!

What? Come again?

Thank you.

Go inside and enjoy yourself.

-Sorry to see you go.
-Good night.

Mr. Bae, thank you for these.

Sure!

Hey, we should have one more drink.

-Okay, let's get together again.
-I'll call you.

-Okay.
-Good night!

Okay, A-jung.

-Huh?
-Sang-ho.

What are you doing?

Gu Han-soo, Yoon Seo-jin.

Join me and drink until the first bus!

I have to go now to catch the last bus.

I have to go, too.

-I'll give you money for the cab.
-Stop!

These days people don't force underlings
to stay with you and keep drinking.

Let's all go home.

In that case, Sang-ho, A-jung…

For the first bus, let's go!

Mr. Yeom.

-Go home.
-Good night.

Good night.

This?

It's from Mr. Bae.

I visited the construction site
one day and ruined my shoe.

Should an auditor take such a gift
from another employee?

I gave eel extract to him the other day.

It's just a gift exchange
without ulterior motives,

so it's fine, right?

But we're auditors,
which means it's different for us.

Anyway, since we're the newbies,
let's try our best

to maintain this positive energy.

Love for our country,
love for the fellow newbie!

I do love our country,
but why should I love my fellow newbie?

I'm only working to make money.

I have to catch the last bus. Good night.

Seo-jin, hold on.

Take a cab on this.
We have some allowance left.

That should be used when we work late.

Well…

Office outings are a part of the job.

Take care.

Yeah.

ONE MONTH LATER

No boss, no oversight, huh?

I'll take care of that,

so go and get ready for work,
Mr. Gu Han-soo.

I will go after I finish this, Mother.

Anyhow, if they don't appoint
a new team leader,

how could you do your job properly?

The audit team doesn't have to have
a team leader to do our job. We're okay.

I can't believe my son's
all grown up and has a job.

It seems like only yesterday

when you were in high school
and you made a big deal about becoming

a white hacker or something.

I'm proud of you, Son.

Yes, I tried to be a white hacker,

but I was immature back then,

and because of puberty,

I refused to listen to you
and made trouble.

Mom. Mom?

-Dad, Dad.
-Who are you stealing for this time?

-Cardboard boxes are soaked from the rain.
-Yes.

Ga-young's grandma makes 10,000 won
in three days from cardboard recycling.

You know how miserable you made me
in the last 30 years?

But we're getting pension.

-Also, Kyung-nyeol owes us.
-Right.

As if Kyung-nyeol's ever coming back.

-Mom, you're hurting Dad.
-Ouch, that hurts.

You thief! Gu Seok-gu!

JU Construction's stock price
reached a new low today.

Are you all right?

I have to be.

His breathing is good today.

I was so worried when I heard
it went down to 90.

I must get back to the office.

I heard Dae-woong
went on a business trip abroad.

The company is doing poorly

because you give
more work to a man like him.

Stop giving him work

because when my husband wakes up,
he'll fire him.

President Hwang!

Day laborers are paid

for on-site injuries
and not industrial accidents.

But we were promised
permanent positions in March.

He's very busy.

I heard the executive
director made a promise.

-President Hwang!
-Okay, we'll call you.

I was told the executive director
made a promise.

RESUME
NAME: PARK TAE-SU

What was that about?

He's a crane accident victim

complaining about low compensation.

I was told we paid for the treatment.

I'm not sure about the details.

RESUME
NAME: SHIN CHA-IL

JU CONSTRUCTION AUDIT TEAM

Damn it!

Why aren't they calling?

You startled me.

Wait. Is this broken?

Why hasn't anyone called?

The position has been open for a month.

So why haven't they made a decision? Geez.

Life is full of ups and downs.
You'll get the good news.

Mr. Yeom,

don't worry about it.
That desk will be yours soon.

Exactly.

Having said so, why don't you buy us lunch

as our future team leader?

A new sushi place just opened.
Should I make a reservation?

No.

-Omakase, omakase.
-Omakase, omakase.

-Omakase.
-Omakase.

What do you think?

I'll eat at the cafeteria.

Oh, seriously.

Ms. Yoon Seo-jin,

and here's one more.

Let's go to the cafeteria. Sushi, my foot.

I should teach all of you a lesson.
Let's go!

But it's…

But they serve so little.

-What's on the menu?
-Chicken, but barely any.

-Chicken, but barely any?
-Seo-jin, do you like their food?

Here you go.

There's nothing to eat here.

They're all dried up.

It's like they didn't try.

It's not cheap here,
but there's nothing to eat.

Is this from a chick or a chicken?

And the soup looks like crap.

We're paying 7,000 won for this?

If you don't like it, eat out.

What was that?

Mr. Kim,

arguing like this might ruin your day.

But the cafeteria food is quite subpar.

I reported it to the cyber audit team,

so why hasn't this been fixed?

Han-soo, shouldn't your team get involved?

How could we?

These ladies worked hard to cook,

so we should be considerate and--

The audit team has neglected their duties.

No country of origin
or a list of ingredients,

lacking in taste and quantity

all point to kickbacks.

Who are you?

I am here for a job interview.

Cafeteria food can say a lot
about the company,

so I thought I'd give it a try.

But it looks like JU Construction

is in the toilet because their auditors
are incompetent.

Incompetent?

Sir, just do the interview and leave

instead of stirring up trouble like this.

If you knew me,
you wouldn't say "incompetent"

because I am the future audit team leader.

This is the first time anyone
has ever called me incompetent.

That means

the people around you
are also incompetent.

Are you really here for a job interview?

No one said anything to us.

Probably because they don't trust you.

Look here.

Forget it, Ms. Ok. He wants to provoke you

so he can get information.

Sir, there's something you should know.

If I may be blunt, JU Construction
would never hire

someone who's rude and inhumane.

If you neglect your duties,
expect corrective action.

If you brought up humanity,
which is irrelevant…

You don't understand auditing.

How did you know we are in the audit team?

She asked you a question. Hey!

Bet you won't get the job.
Not sure what you're here for.

For the audit team leader position.

Leader of which team?

He said the audit team.

That's ridiculous.

Damn it.

He left the position open for a month,
and now he's interviewing an outsider?

This is humiliating.

I know.

I think the president
has another plan in mind.

Hey, you!

Oh.

Am I invisible to you?

I have a document to review.

How dare you!

So, you can see paper,

but you can't see me.

No, sir.

Leave your info with my secretary.

I'm sorry, sir.

I'm sorry, too.

In the old days,
I could just kick you on the shin.

But now it goes on
your performance evaluation.

Damn it.

When it comes to attitude,
performance and skills,

I'm not insufficient,
so why are they interviewing?

Why? Huh?

Did you guys ever doubt that
I'd be the next team leader?

-Did you?
-How weird.

None of my people told me that they were
hiring an outsider.

Then, it can't be true

because Ms. Ok would've heard about it
from her people.

I'm making a reasonable assumption
that he was mistaken.

-Right.
-Wait.

He's being interviewed
in the small conference room

for the audit team leader position.

Well, now we know.

But why?

He might already have the job,
and the interview might be a formality.

What are you talking about?

He already knew who we were.

Probably because he heard
Mr. Kim talking about the team.

He looked full of confidence.

You'd have to be confident to be rude.

Mentioning "duties" and
"corrective action" isn't rude.

He was talking about work.

Gu Han-soo.

Never mind.

No, go to the small conference room.

Me?

Go and check out what's going on.

-Get on it.
-Yes, sir.

Wow.

Why did you want the job?

I applied because I wanted to catch
sneaky little rats.

Excuse me?

There are no rats
in buildings like this one anymore.

And even if there were rats,

we would hire exterminators to catch them,

so why would we interview…

Wait. What do you mean?

There are so many sneaky little rats
at JU Construction.

If you are lenient, they will gnaw away
at your company.

Stop using metaphors and get to the point.

Embezzlement of 700 million won in 2019
by manipulating the account balances.

Embezzlement of 900 million won
in 2020 by forging the company seal.

Embezzlement of 1.3 billion won in 2021
by an executive's misappropriation.

Sneaky little rats gnawed away at you.

You're saying you can stop them?

How?

Manipulating the account balance system

can be prevented by weekly audits.

A forged company seal can be caught early

with comprehensive auditing.

And executive's misappropriations
can be prevented through special audits.

You can't accomplish anything
with such ideal scenarios!

Not doing what is ideal
is JU Construction's problem.

Oh, boy.

You changed jobs frequently.
Is there a reason?

I move on when I'm done catching
all the sneaky little rats.

A company like JU Construction

is infested with little rats.

Watch your tongue!

Sir, do we have to keep listening to him?

JU is a leader in the Korean
construction industry,

and you were once ranked
12th in the country.

In order to restore its glory

and prevent your employees
from losing their jobs,

you must declare
an emergency audit system.

Before it's too late.

Hello.

Is this where the interview
for the audit team leader is taking place?

Yes, it is happening now.

You're not here to be interviewed
but to lecture us.

Get out!

Huh?

What happened?

Huh? What is it?

Hurry up and tell me!

He…

got thrown out.

-Yes!
-We'll never have to see him again.

Yes, I was right, wasn't I?

I was right!

I'm the team leader, me, me.
Okay? I'm the team leader.

Hey, get back to work.

Have a nice day,

and here is my message to you.

You're the only one who can
make your life shine.

I'm the only one

who can make my life shine.

Thank you.

-Hello.
-Hello.

Hello.

Hello.

Hello.

-Hello.
-Hello.

-Hello.
-Hello.

Hello.

Excuse me,

you can't be in here.

Only the auditors have the pin code.

I know the pin and I'm in this chair.
So who could I be, Mr. Gu Han-soo?

Our team leader?

By the way, how did you know my name?

You barely made it in
and got a job here in July 2022.

You got the job
because you knew my predecessor.

You can transfer to Florida
if you make it to three years.

You've been here for six months.

Did you check up on me?

I can go in two and a half years!

Team Leader Kwak,

I will never forget
it was you who hired me.

-Right?
-Yes.

Good morning.

You're all here.

Oh.

This is the new member of the audit team,

and his name is Shin…

-I am Shin Cha-il.
-Yes,

team leader Shin Cha-il.

The oldest member
and deputy head Yeom Kyung-seok,

section chief Ok A-jung…

I'm aware. Deputy section chief
Moon Sang-ho and Ms. Yoon Seo-jin.

You can take your time to learn
the workflow and--

Let's have a meeting.

I'm his superior, so why would he
interrupt me while I'm talking?

I don't get it.

Geez.

Goodbye, sir.

We've already met in the cafeteria,

so I'll move on to the audit schedule.

We will audit
the January 16 crane collapse

at the Inpo apartment construction site.

Why do we have to audit that?

The injured workers got treated,

and the insurance paid for the crane.

Everything's been resolved.

Perhaps you don't know,

but the construction has been resumed,
so an audit may be futile.

Do you know why it collapsed?

The collapse?

According to the news,
it was because of strong winds.

There was a high wind warning
on January 16,

but the wind speed was below ten meters
per second at the time.

Cranes don't collapse
in that kind of wind.

Then why did they say so?

Are you really asking me that?

You complacent, incompetent…

and lazy…

auditors.

The fact that they hid the cause
means there was corruption.

I have never seen corruptions that lack
roots and branches.

I will find them and sever them.

What should we do first?

We will start with interviewing
the site manager.

He did nothing wrong,
so why would you interview him?

Is there proof that he did nothing wrong?

He's not the kind of man
who would hide anything.

I asked for proof.

The proof is…

I trust him.

-I don't.
-But…

There will be reorganization
based on your job performance.

Gather everything on the crane collapse.

What's the time line?

From Inpo's groundbreaking
to the day in question.

Mr. Gu Han-soo, follow me.

Me?

-Seo-jin.
-Seriously.

You seem quite enthusiastic.

So…

I missed my timing earlier,

but Mr. Bae Young-sik

has been working
for our company for over 20 years.

Presidents have changed,

but he's always been the site manager,
which proves his worth.

-He's earnest and--
-Mr. Gu Han-soo.

-Yes?
-Auditing isn't a good fit for you.

Find work elsewhere.

-Excuse me?
-I'll give you a week.

Make arrangements.

APARTMENT BUILDING
CONSTRUCTION SITE

But what did I do wrong?

Please tell me.

You need to tell me, so I can…

Which desk is the manager's?

-Hello.
-Hello.

May I ask who's asking?

This is our new team leader.

Hello.

His desk is over there.

Huh? Why?

Where is his desktop computer?

The manager uses a laptop.

Hey…

What are you doing, Mr. Shin?

Mr. Bae's not here. You can't do that.

JU CONSTRUCTION, INPO AREA 2

-Who are you?
-Mr. Bae.

What do you think you're doing?

Give us your written consent.
Then we interview you.

We're working
on the wall structure right now.

What are you talking about?

Mr. Bae!

Why are you doing this?

Go and get the laptop.

Mr. Bae! Mr. Bae!

Mr. Bae, where are you going?

Mr. Bae!

Mr. Bae, stop! Stop, Mr. Bae!

Out of my way!

Mr. Bae!

Mr. Bae, stop!

Mr. Bae, we need to talk!

Please.

Mr. Bae!

Oh, come on.

Mr. Bae.

Why? Why would you run?

Hey, Han-soo. How could you do this to me?

What?

You brought the new team leader
to audit me?

No, it's not like that.

Don't come any closer!

How could you…

Mr. Bae, it's me.

I said, don't come any closer!

Mr. Bae Young-sik.

Why did you lie about the cause
of the crane collapse?

Why are you asking me?

I'm asking because you're responsible
for what happens here.

I only did what I was told!

Who gave you the order?

President Hwang said he never approved it.

Hand over your laptop.

This is mine, so why should I?

That's not yours. It's the company's.

Let me!

Let me talk to him.

I think he misunderstood…

the situation.

Han-soo, why is he doing this to me?

Mr. Shin, let me talk to him, please.

Mr. Bae!

-Come here!
-Somebody call 911.

-Let me have your phone!
-911.

Wait, that's Mr. Bae, right?

Mr. Bae! Mr. Bae!

EMERGENCY ROOM

Even the police need a warrant
to do such a thing.

How could you hurt someone like that?

Are you okay?

The hard drive will be restored.
We'll look into your financial records.

It'll be a full reinvestigation
on the crane accident.

Mr. Bae needs his rest.

What caused the crane collapse?

If you tell me now,

it may lessen the consequences.

That's enough.

Do you have to ask him that right now?

I will take you to the room
where the other workers are.

-Han-soo.
-Yes?

I'd be more comfortable in a private room.

Take me to--

Is there a reason why you can't be
with those workers?

Answer me.

Han-soo, this man's killing me.
Take me to a private room now.

-Can you help?
-Of course.

Mr. Bae is here?

Is he hurt?

It's nothing serious.

Why is the manager avoiding
the construction workers?

It's because he feels bad.

He promised we'd be hired by
JU Construction, but it didn't work out.

Did he demand money for that?

He gives us money for cabs
when we have company dinners,

so no, he would never.

He was the one who saved the life

of the crane operator, Mr. Choi.

Where is the crane operator?

He was in a private room, but he's gone.

He's discharged already?

He only broke one leg,

thanks to Mr. Bae's swift response.

I think you're mistaken about something.

Mr. Bae talked to the executive director,

so he could find us permanent positions.

It didn't work out,

but he's a very good man.

Han-soo,

I'm sorry about earlier.

When I hear the word "audit," I panic.

What happened to my laptop?

It got smashed,
but my team leader took it.

What's wrong?

You can tell me.

Was there another cause for the collapse?

No, it wasn't like that.

If the cause was a natural disaster,

they said we could resume construction
more quickly, so…

It all came from above.

How could I make a decision like that
on my own?

Oh, that hurts.

-Han-soo.
-Yes?

Tell them I won't see anyone.

Okay.

Ouch.

Why did you do that?

A man is injured.

You can't put auditing
before a man's life.

This is the result of inadequate auditing.

He said he did it

so they could resume construction sooner.

He said he was ordered to do so.

-I will interview him.
-Let him rest.

Did Mr. Bae call in a favor?

Excuse me?

What are you trying--

SEO GIL-PYO, EXECUTIVE

This is Shin Cha-il.

Yes, sir. I understand.

Coffee's here.

Iced Americanos for your fatigue.

Our work life just became
complicated. Do you agree?

Very much so.

Have some coffee.

How can they hire an outsider
as the audit team leader?

Huh?

Is something wrong?

You look really upset.

Who do you think you are to reopen
a case that was all resolved?

I am auditing it
because there was foul play.

Foul play?

The vice president is in charge
of the Inpo apartment project.

It was his decision to announce
the cause as a natural disaster!

It's confidential, and you're out of line!

When I meet the vice president,
I will tell him

that he made the wrong call.

Unbelievable.

Stop all this nonsense.

And bring me Mr. Bae's laptop.

How did you know

I have his laptop?

Did Mr. Bae tell you?

What if he did?

That means you are colluding with Mr. Bae.

What? How dare you!

Do you know who I am?

I have given everything
to JU Construction since the onset.

Did you promise site manager Bae Young-sik

to hire the construction workers
as full-time employees?

Was there payment involved?

This is crazy.

You think I'm a moron, don't you?

Bring me the laptop!

All right.

I'll bring it.

I'll bring it to you

when I finish reviewing
its contents after a forensic analysis.

That bastard!

Mr. Bae suffered hairline fractures
on his seventh and eighth ribs

and shinbone.

Do you know what he said to me
after committing such a violent act?

He said to find work elsewhere

because I can't do this job.

Can you believe it?

Wow, this is much worse than I expected.

My head hurts.

Do I have any painkillers?

I don't think I can
take this anymore, okay?

I think we should find out
why Mr. Bae ran.

He said he got scared of being audited.

Of course he did.

Everyone has something to hide.

He fell from the third floor,
third freaking floor,

because of Mr. Shin!

Do you know how high the third floor--

Send me all documents of drafts,
proposals and bills of sale

addressed to Seo Gil-pyo.

Why the executive director?

How can someone who has no clue
about auditing be the audit team leader?

What do you think about that?

Today was the hardest day ever.

Today was the hardest day at this company.

Look at me. I think my eyes might pop out.

-That's not good.
-Let me see.

-They look the same.
-Oh, boy.

How about a cool pint of beer?

Sure.

Wait, listen to me.

-Good work, guys!
-Hear me out!

-Goodbye.
-Goodbye.

Wow, so rude.

Don't worry. I'll take care of everything.
Okay? I will.

-Bye!
-Goodbye.

Seo-jin, how are you going home?

I'm taking the bus.

I'll come with you.

Isn't it so strange?

How could they hire a man like him
to be the audit team leader?

He's a total thug.

The problem began when Mr. Bae ran.

I told you he got scared of being audited.

If he had nothing to hide,
he wouldn't have run.

Do you think Mr. Bae did something bad?

Do you trust Mr. Bae?

Of course I do.

Without any proof?

I think Mr. Shin is right.

Auditing isn't right for you.

What?

He's looking into
the executive director's work history?

He's dying to get on
everyone's bad side, isn't he?

Does he have a death wish?

It looks like it.

By the way,

why did the president hire
an outsider to be the team leader?

What do you think?

Everyone in the company
is loyal to the vice president.

So he was willing to hire a nutcase
like Shin Cha-il from outside

in an attempt to take control
of the audit team.

How's the mood at the office?

Isn't it a total mess?

You have to drive Shin Cha-il out.

When that happens,
you'll get the chance to take his place.

Director Yang, don't you know who I am?

I've been working
as an auditor for four years.

Once I set a target, making him resign
is a piece of cake.

No more words. We need action.

Shin Cha-il has the site manager's laptop.

Bring that to me right away.

The laptop?

I will bring it to you ASAP.

So you say.

You can count on me.

We'll see about that.

I'm home.

Han-soo, come and have a beer
with my friend Kyung-nyeol.

Oh, Gu Han-soo, long time no see!

Hello.

Department Head An!

What's taking so long?

It's coming, Deputy Head Gu.

Being here with you brings back memories

from our office days.

The time when Gu Seok-gu was dating
his older boss.

Didn't you go to Vietnam?

That was what your mom said.

He's been looking for investors.

Luckily, it all worked out,
and his factory is now in operation.

You had no idea, and you called him

-a jerk, a bastard and…
-Have a drumstick.

I deserved that.

I disappeared for two years.

But if you hadn't lent me 30 million won,

I couldn't have gone
searching for investors.

Thank you so much.

Thank you, ma'am!

Good luck with your business.

I didn't think you'd ever come back.

You should learn to trust people!

Dad,

did you know he would come back?

Of course. I have faith in Kyung-nyeol.

Based on what?

I'm the one who decides
the depth of my faith.

So, based on myself.

I love that.

That's what your mom said to me.

You have to be careful.

Oh, my.

This is for you.

You stepped on a nail at the site
the other day and ruined your shoe.

Mr. Bae!

Thank you.

Yes,

I decide the depth of my faith.

It's based on me.

I will prove it.

Do you know why it collapsed?

It was because of strong winds.

The wind speed was below ten meters
per second at the time.

Why did you lie about the cause
of the crane collapse?

I only did what I was told!

Who gave you the order?

CRANE PURCHASE AGREEMENT

Stop all this nonsense.

I am living history of JU Construction!

SEO GIL-PYO

JU CONSTRUCTION

I've never seen such insolence.

If the company's hierarchy collapses,
the whole company collapses, no?

Is there anything left to collapse?

After my father died,
we were in deficit for five years.

I can't even figure out
where the bottom is.

We will get back on our feet.

Yes, and that is why I hired
a man like Shin Cha-il

as the new audit team leader.

We need change.

Then why did you interview him
instead of just hiring him?

Was that a warning for me?

So I can hear him say
"sneaky little rats"?

When the vice president returns,

there will be a problem.

I am the president, Director Seo.

Please excuse me.

It shouldn't be hard.

Just tell me what he does
like you did yesterday.

You know the team leader has the power
to kick anyone out of the team, don't you?

Won't just be you, but Mr. Bae as well.

What do I need to do?

This is war, okay?

Where's the team leader?

He went to
the crane subcontractor's office.

He did?

-Keep up the good work.
-Yes, sir.

This is war, okay?

If you want to drop a nuke to end it,
bring me Mr. Bae's laptop.

If you do that,
you'll be able to transfer to Florida.

-Transfer.
-Mr. Bae can return to his job.

-Return.
-The team leader will be gone.

Gone.

-Got it?
-Yes, sir.

-Can you do it?
-Yes, sir.

Good.

You're going to Myung Tower, right?
I'll join you.

You're not familiar with the owner.

I know him because I've worked with him.

I will introduce you to him
and things like that.

I restored it back
to its original condition.

I also cracked the password.

COMPUTER REPAIR ROOM

COMPUTER REPAIR

Father!

So,

did you find information
on the crane in the laptop?

That doesn't concern you.

You said auditing isn't a good fit for me.

Please explain why.

You trust people.

Is it wrong to trust people?

JU Construction needs the kind of audit
that goes beyond document review

because there are too many holes.

The holes the sneaky little rats made.

We can only catch those rats
by auditing based on suspicions,

but you won't be able to do that
because you trust people blindly.

That is why I don't need you.

Are you…

suspicious of everyone around you?

You must be

very lonely.

MYUNG TOWER

Trolley and jib are from Germany,
and hoisting from Taiwan.

But the counterweight has no manufacturer.

Those were made in different years.

Such tower cranes are called
Frankenstein towers.

That's such a hideous name.

You rented out a crane assembled
from junk parts,

and you're pretending ignorance.

How much money did you give Seo Gil-pyo?

Oh, come on.

You speak quite rashly, don't you?

CRANE MANUFACTURERS LIST

CRANE MANUFACTURERS LIST
(FOR EXTERNAL USE)

You have two options.

First, to submit false product
and testify.

Second, to be tried in court
for embezzlement.

If you choose the latter option,
Myung Tower will go out of business.

Han-soo, could you give us some privacy?

I need to discuss something with Mr. Shin.

Leave us.

It shouldn't be hard.

Just tell me what he does
like you did yesterday.

You know the team leader has the power
to kick anyone out of the team, don't you?

Won't just be you, but Mr. Bae as well.

Just give me a break.

Please, I'm begging you.

Just this once. Please, I'm begging you.

If this gets out, my company
will go out of business.

I promise I will get the proper
certificates of manufacturers,

-so please…
-You only have two options.

I will expect your answer by tomorrow.

He was in a private room, but he's gone.

He only broke one leg,

thanks to Mr. Bae's swift response.

Sir, Shin Cha-il was here.

PARK HO-YEON, MYUNG TOWER CEO

Aren't we going back to the office?

To the hospital.

Hospital?

Mr. Bae's not receiving any visitors.

Get out of the car!

I said, get out! Get out!

I said, get out!

-Hey!
-Come out.

Hey! Come out! Come out! I said, come out!

Hey, you have a death wish?

Come out!

You little…

Hey! Grab him!

Father!

Help!

Father!

Father…

Mr. Shin, Mr. Shin.

Mr. Shin.

What do I do?

Mr. Shin!

Are you all right?

Where is the laptop?

Uh, those thugs must have taken it.

The dash cam is missing, too.

Pull over.

You need to see a doctor.

You might feel okay, but you need
to check for concussion.

Pull over.

Get out of the car.

JU CONSTRUCTION AUDIT TEAM

This is Shin Cha-il.

Sir,

the hospital called, saying
Mr. Bae has gone missing.

We have to get rid of him for good.

Speaking of the devil.

Give me the laptop.

What are you talking about?

That kind of violence
only worked in your time.

Now there are eyes and laws
to deal with such incidents,

which means you may have to face
criminal charges.

Hey, Cha-il.

If you did it to avoid consequences,
you made a poor choice

because you may face maximum punishment.

Hey, Shin Cha-il!

-You…
-Forget it.

Let's see how far he goes.

You made the decisions regarding
the crane purchase.

You used that power to purchase
a crane with no manufacture date

at a normal price.

Myung Tower paid you the difference.

The defective crane collapsed
and injured people,

and to cover up the corruption,

you blamed the wind for the collapse.

You know how to make a man laugh.

Can you prove it?

Give me the laptop.

How dare you accuse me
of something you can't even prove?

I will report you
to the board of directors for slander.

Of all the audit team leaders
I have sacked,

you'll be the one with the shortest term.

Someone's been hiding the injuries
the crane operator suffered.

I believe it's the site manager.

What do you think, sir?

Here comes the vice president.

You're finished.

Watch yourself.

Whoa.

Have you been well?

-Of course.
-Good.

-This is Director Yang.
-Hey.

Cha-il, you should say hello.

Come on, introduce
yourself to the vice president.

Who's that?

That's the new audit team leader.

Audit team leader?

Why is he looking at me like that?

I will audit everyone involved

without exception.

If nothing comes up,

I'll hold you responsible.

The audit subjects are

fabricating and stealing evidence
and on the run.

It's not true.

How could anyone do such a thing?

Mr. Gu Han-soo will transfer out
after this audit is over.

I was so ignorant.

I will fire your ass.

I am Shin Cha-il, the audit team leader.

Let's begin the special audit.
