My daughter, Sol,
I've always loved my wife,
I think it was for about six years,,, Right?
(Defendant)
We tried to have a baby,
and she finally got pregnant,
I'm about to be a dad,
Love?
He's a person who doesn't even know how to love his body,
He's had hepatic cirrhosis four times from bribing over alcohol,
I was terrified he'd be dead every morning,
Please get me a divorce immediately,
No way,
You know I've lived my life at full pace, Su-hyun,
You see, no matter what was going on,
I've not once missed sending
her living expenses,
You need to give me that,
What you did was wrong,
That's a crime,
Narrow gathered, wisely spent,
That's what we should be doing,
Do you think I want to live this way?
Okay, let's calm down a bit,
From the data, Mr, Lee Man-jae submitted,
I see that you're victims of the Smile Bank Crisis,
You've been struggling financially since then, correct?
Yes,
We hit rock bottom,
But I needed to protect my family,
I'm here,
We've spoken on the phone,
Hello, sir,
Like I said on the phone,
kidneys, livers, corneas
pancreas, tendons, and retinas are traded in the market,
- But I only take kidneys, - Are you sure,,,
Are you absolutely sure they're 100 thousand dollars?
The price depends on
the size of each side,
About 20 thousand dollars?
Jeez, what am I going to do?
I even find it scary to get injections,
I'm terrified of being cut,
You don't buy anything else, do you?
Name,
- Pardon? - Sell your name, then,
Na,,, Name?
How do I sell my name?
You buy names?
Dude, take a good look at this,
Would you say this is a car that's been registered legally?
What do you mean,,,
It's worth the same as a car,
I'm saying even a scrapped car with its parts disassembled
has the same value as long as
its number plate is valid,
The same goes for men, too,
One's name can be lucrative means,
Name,,,
I bet you two went through difficult times,
I heard you're planning a new business,
Yes, I'm planning investment immigration to Australia,
To do that, I need some documents,
It takes about six months
for me to get everything I need,
As you know, the education system there is excellent,
It will be good for our child,
And,,,
And for Su-hyun,,,
Her dream is to be a music teacher,
It hasn't happened yet because of me,
I'm going to make sure her dream comes true,
I made a name for our daughter,
It's Lee Sol, What do you think?
In Korean, it means a pine tree,
In Spanish, it's the sun,
In French, it means the land,
Isn't it awesome?
It's cold, isn't it?
How come it's here already?
Look, Su-hyun,
The world would be a happy place if things
work out as the meaning of people's names,
Hey! Su-hyun, I,,,!
I,,,
Has she left?
Do you even have a plan? Why did you tell them you'd quit?
I know,
Don't you have anything good for me?
And is that supposed to be a gift for a baby?
I've got a jaw-dropping proposal for you,
(Gonjiam Hot Spring Hotel)
I want no part in this kind of crap,
I've already given it to my distant relative,
This one is on a whole different level,
10 thousand dollars by net per month and for six months,
The terms are awesome, so I should get 10% for my commission,
- Damn jackpot, - Really?
Since this one's going to be your last one,
let's get you a new legal seal, an expensive one,
What am I? A guy with hundreds of legal seals?
You've heard Mr, Jin of Inye House, haven't you?
I'm not sure,
He makes legal seals
that can change one's fortune, carried within their name,
Everyone wants a piece of him,
from politicians to CEOs of big companies,
Apparently, his seals are super expensive,
You could ask about your child's name
while you're there, One stone, two birds,
"Man" stands for ten thousand and "Jae" stands for wealth,
- Yes, sir, - But,,,
Your fate is to lose every fortune you get,
It looks like it will be hard for you to keep your family together,
You're not with your wife anymore, are you?
That's,,,
We're planning to get back together next year,
Do you reckon we'll work out?
You,,,
You're attached to the two things that are too good for you,
Those are your name and your wife,
Get rid of your name
and leave your wife, That way, you'll live,
How can you be so sure?
Okay, I got you,
To be honest, when it comes to my name,
it's worn out already,
Enough of that, You know, I'm having a daughter very soon,
I named her Lee Sol,
What do you think of her name?
I'm talking about things like
her fate, health, and if she'll make some money,
What does fate mean?
It means to drive one's life,
That means one's name value
depends on how she's driven her life,
Fate,,,
Do you believe in it?
(Lee Man-jae)
This is as good as it gets for a puppet boss,
I'm handing it to you because of your reputation,
Okay, I understand what you mean,
What's important is that it's for six months with no extension,
Are you really leaving after this deal?
Gosh, you sure stuck around for long in this harsh field,
Is that why you're called phoenix?
I just got lucky,
Come on, Tell me what your secret is,
I'll tell you this,
"Sell sand in a desert and refrigerators in the North Pole,"
For me, this tie is my pride,
Oh, that tie is fierce,
You were a salesman before, weren't you?
Exactly,
Even when I was on the run after my business collapsed,
I always had this tie on,
(SPOTECH, Seoul)
What the,,,
No way!
Oh! Block it!
No! God damn it!
Damn it!

Hit harder if you've lost money,

May I ask where you're from?
Are you the CEO?
Yes,,,
I dropped by since I sensed an abnormality in stock trading,
Is that so? I know everyone who has jurisdiction over here,
People from the Financial Supervisory Service
or Fair Trade Commission usually notifies us before they come,
I guess you're not from either of those,
Come on,
What a piece of crap,
Say, I'm from the Fair Trade Commission,
Are you really going to act stupid like just now?
Who the hell are you?
You just,,,
- He's with the company, - What?
He's with the company,
My apologies,
Hey,
Is it harder to die or to live?
To live is harder,
Do you know why?
It costs money,
Have you got it?
It's 400 thousand dollars in cash that you can use right away,
To be
or not to be,
That is the question,
It's for you to to bribe the tax office later on,
Knock it out of the park,

- Hi, - Hi,
You're match-fixing again, aren't you, punk?
You really want to do that again, huh?
Have you forgotten Dongbaek Rangers kicked you out?
Don't bring that up,
What did I tell you?
What's the problem with this world?
People think too much,
yet they earn too little,
Exactly,
That's why you need to think straight,
Not just any thoughts,
The thoughts that will bring you money,
That's what I'm doing now, Can't you see?
I'll get money out of this dividend,
Take a look at this,
This is the thought that will bring money,
What's this?
There are tons of kids sand-boarding in the desert,
Imagine how thirsty they must be,
(Selling fruit punch)
Selling Fruit Punch In the Desert
is just like giving the uppercut punch,

I'd rather go back to match-fixing,
I have tons of juniors,,,
- It won't work? - Stop hitting me!
Knock it off!
- Come on, man, - You punk,
Wait! I've got a call,
Hello,
Sorry?
To the airport? Now?
It will be good for you to take some rest,
Why am I going long-distance already?
It will be done in two months,
Do you think they'll do "hat switching"?
You're jinxing it, Knock on wood,
Okay,
No need to sweat, bro,
Are you sure this is your very last time
working as a puppet boss?
Things start to change when you have a baby,
I'm concerned about how my daughter would think of me,
I'll think of it as my inheritance from my parents,
I've made a good career out of selling my name,
I'd like to put an end to it now,
(I'm going on a business trip, I'll call you when I arrive,)
Oh, hello,
What?
What's going on?
Have I been tapped?
The tax investigation is more thorough than I expected,
This is 20,000 dollars,
Keep down for just a month,
What if it takes longer and affects my plan?
Will you take the fall all on your own?
Everything's under your name,
Wear this,
I'm telling you, I can't let you drag this thing longer, Okay?
Don't you worry, Just take care of yourself,
I'll take care of it here,
Okay,
You know what to do with Su-hyun,,,
Okay, just go,
I'll get going then,
Good luck!
- Don't worry about your wife, - This is nuts,

Hello, Su-hyun,
You're giving birth to Sol in two weeks time, right?
You are well, aren't you?
And the date I promised is next week, right?
I'll make sure I keep my word,
So we,,, I'll see you then,
I'm doing well,
Your message is saved,
A major financial scandal has broken off in South Korea,
SPOTECH, a start-up company based in South Korea,
recently received 84 million US dollars from
investors but its CEO Lee Man-jae
is alleged to have transferred the money to his personal account
and fled the country,

and requested Interpol,,,

What a jerk,

(Day 967)
(Private Prison, Zaihu)
Come out now,
This is the prison term for the past three years,
No one has ever walked out of this place alive,
What a shocker that you'd pay
for the life worth of cost of his labor,
Let me say this once again,
You must be discreet on this matter
since this has never happened before,
8430!
Lee Man-jae,
Are you sure you're Lee Man-jae?
Get a hold of yourself if you want to clear your name,
What the,,,
Who are you?
Aren't you more curious about who made you like this?
People who disappear into thin air after
being sent to China or the Philippines,,,
They become dead over five thousand dollars
and a picture,
But they actually get sold to private prisons like this
and spend the rest of their lives in labor,
My life is worth five thousand dollars?
I guess your name is worth more than that,
Thanks to you, the political world in Yeoiudo
is about to be razed to the ground,
(CEO Lee Man-jae confirmed dead in China)
(He committed suicide from the pressure of escape)
(The prosecution disposed of no right to indict)
What cruel jerks,
They made sure no one would find out
your identity even when thrown out as a corpse,
I,,,
Was I played?
It is visible Congressman Hwang Chi-woon
who has defected from the Minui Party
is about to establish a new party,
Mr, Yoon, the leader of the Minui Party is on the lookout,
mentioning the shift in generations
by Congressman Hwang is a mere illusion,
Do you know who Congressman Hwang Chi-woon is?
Hwang Chi-woon?
Who's that?
The 100 million dollars you siphoned off,
I mean, the so-called 100 million dollars
was detected to be used for the establishment of the new party,
It takes an unbelievable amount of money to establish a new party,
What's it got to do with me?
Congressman Hwang has mentioned
sports venture at the National Assembly,
Let's absorb the billions of illegal sports betting
into the venture market,
Something like the legalization of the underground economy,
SPOTECH, you were in leadership
was listed first after his statement,
The fund for the creation of the party
was laundered into political theme stocks,
It looks like you're not on good terms with Congressman Hwang,
Are you saying you want to use me as your blade
to slice Congressman Hwang's neck?
Now you're talking,
Plus, you've got your reasons to go back, too,
My,,,
My wife,,,
Do you know the whereabouts of Su-hyun?
I found you who are here, Who couldn't I find?
Shall we go, then?
You have the backup data of SPOTECH, don't you?
I heard you were quite a master in a ledger,
For me to be able to stick around
this industry was all thanks to my ledgers,
It can't make me live
but it can for sure kill all,
That's why they killed you
so they won't sink to the ground with you,
I got you a fake bankbook you can use immediately,
I'll give you a million dollars more if you make this work,
That should give you a comfortable life,
I can get you a new identity too,
You'd need money to look after your family,
Su-hyun!
You've called the wrong number,
Is this Su-hyun?
Dude, how many times do I have
to say you're calling the wrong number?
(Lee Man-jae! Son of a gun!)
Jeez, this is so tiring,
When will I scrape off all of this?
Don't even get me started,
Everyone suspected her of trying to get a fictitious divorce,
How could she live here?
She was trying to fall from the rooftop,
and even the cops came,
It's all because of that prick, Lee Man-jae,
I guess she loved her husband, though,
She'd been waiting for him for a long time,
I heard she had no other choice but to emigrate,
Su-hyun, I'm not dead,
(Deceased: Lee Man-jae)
Once everything is done,
I'll go find you,
(This building is under a lien)
(CEO Lee Man-jae)
(File error)
Your establishment of the new party
is a hot potato, Congressman Hwang,
What makes your party stand out,
like the spirit of the times?
When Confucius was asked
what he'd do if he participated in politics,
he said he'd straighten names,
When names are straightened, so will the thoughts,
When there are upright thoughts,
organizations and the nation will live,
That's the spirit of my new party,
(Congressman Hwang Chi-woon establishes a new party)
(He's the frontrunner for the next presidency)
(The leader of the Minui Party, Yoon Seong-su is challenged)
(Congressman Hwang Chi-woon establishes a new party)
There's a rush of congressmen by the news of Hwang's new party,
The fact that 20 members of
the Minui Party defected is a fatal hit,
(The Minui Party)
There are only doubts about the fund for the establishment,
We haven't been able to provide conclusive proof,
I'm not sure
if Ms, Shim's strategy is right,
We need to compete with our policy,
Picking a fight over political funds is so old-school,
It doesn't happen anymore since the mid-2000s, no?
Gentlemen,
the biggest venture in Korea is still the presidential election,
That's the reason why Congressman Hwang established the new party,
And you're saying the issue of political funds is old-school?
"The age of digital finance?"
Mr, Special Adviser,
have you read "Crime and Punishment"?
Oh, Dostoevsky,
I read it in my college years,
Or was it when I was serving military duty?
Do you watch porn?
I don't watch such things,
I have two daughters,
Everyone pretends to read the classics
when in fact, no one does,
And yet, everyone pretends not to watch porn
when in fact, they do,
The same goes for political funds,
The public pretend they know everything when they have no idea,
And yet, politicians pretend they don't know anything when they do,
I'm external personnel,
and I have no problem talking about money
but every man in this room hesitates to talk about it,
Not one person here is free from it,
What Congressman Hwang's people are doing
isn't a normal way of establishing a party,
Wrapping things pretty on this scale is so hard,
You think that's possible with the legitimate cost?
"Will one establish a party with little money?"
"Or will he join another party?"
That's the dilemma,
What if someone planned a mission
with a specific purpose in mind at this point?
What if that someone is Congressman Hwang?
Someone who is upright
and can be an alternative to the current politics,
Plus, he's young and good-looking
that his popularity is through the roof,
The converted worth of the advertising impact
of him appearing on "You Quiz Show"
is apparently over tens of million dollars,
The problem is,
so what he's popular?
He's got no connection,
At this point, a hypothesis
that someone has established a party for him
with dirty money is plausible,
Take a look at the presidential election of Biden and Trump,
The public participates in an election more
to eliminate a particular candidate,
We'd need to explain
why Congressman Hwang isn't right for the position
more than the reason why you need to be
in power for the future to nip the bud,
(Data Recovery A/S - The file is restored)
Hi, how have you been?
You,,,
Get over here, you!
Ouch, that hurts,
You really are alive,
You little crap,
I really thought you were dead,
Have you been well?
I don't know where Su-hyun is,
I guess she gave birth to the baby,
Are you thinking of looking for her?
Not now,
I'll do that once I get the things back I lost,
It wasn't you, was it?
How are you going to redeem yourself from everything?
What have you been up to?
I work as a guard here,
I feel ashamed when thinking about my juniors
but I registered a marriage with my girlfriend,
You told me to live my life properly,
Where is Gong Moon-sik now?
He died,
What the hell are you on about?
Gong Moon-sik is dead? Why?
What do you mean "why"?
He got "hat switching", as you did,
Like you, he was a puppet boss too,
He just acted like a bookie,
I heard he left his gang
to meet his daughter he had abandoned
since he earned money,
My sweetie,,,
Have you been well?
I earned tons of money,
But those pricks made a profit worth
10 million dollars from SPOTECH's stock,
They took all the profit
and Gong Moon-sik was left with a huge amount of tax,
(Tax Notice & Receipt Name: Gong Moon-sik)
General Income Tax 2,7 million dollars, to be exact,
Since there was no report,
there will be a surtax which is 27%,
And that adds up to 2,7 million dollars,
What do you mean by stock?
It's a venture corporation called SPOTECH,
I see that it's closed now,
Did you lend your name for money by any chance?
They told you not to check your account
and took everything from your password to seal, didn't they?
There's no way of coming out of this,
One shot, two kills,
You two both were used by one corporation, SPOTECH,
100 million dollars from you
and 10 million dollars from Gong Moon-sik,
So where is this real bookie?
I'm telling you I don't know!
This is a game we can't win,
Just let it go,
If I don't find the bookie,
everything will be on me,
Then I'll really be dead,
And my only proof got taken away
by some complete stranger,
The CCTV was restored, but,,,
What the,,,
She's Gong Moon-sik's daughter,
What?
She's been yapping like crazy that she's all over the Internet,
How shall I look for her?

after trampling all over the disadvantaged,
I wonder what kind of extravagant life he's having at this moment,
The signature-seeking campaign to legislate
the Lee Man-jae Law for the legal eradication
of the illegal use of others' names will be held

that Lee Man-jae's SPOTECH was your theme stock,
you haven't even agreed to meet me,

give me your explanation now,

I did mention the thrive of the sports venture back then
but I've got nothing to do with that,
But I still proposed Lee Man-jae Law
because I have a sense of responsibility,
Even if Lee is dead, I want to reduce the damage of the victims,
He's not dead!

(Lee Man-jae is alive!)
Hello,
I'd like to report on Lee Man-jae,
He's in Korea now,
I'm sorry
but I've received too many prank calls,
Have you got any proof like a recent photo of him?
Hello?
Yes, I've got a recent photo of Lee Man-jae,

Where are you?
Him,,,
Why do you want to look for him?
You know why,
I need to take revenge,
Is that all?
I can help you with that,
Will you be able to give me what I want, then?
Sure,
I heard you know everything about Lee Man-jae,
How much do you know?
Lee Man-jae,
He's 186 cm tall, and he weighs 82 kg,
He was born on June 4, 1978 in Jeongneung-dong, Seongbuk-gu,
His first job was as a salesman at Britannica Korea,
In his first month, he sold 160 sets
and became the sales king the following year,
Later on, his business of children teaching material
collapsed due to the Smile Bank Crisis,
He started to work as a puppet boss in 2011,
After embezzling 100 million dollars from SPOTECH
and pocketing it to paper company,
he vanished in 2019,
He became mega-rich, wandered about abroad,
and died in China,
You,,,
You must hate his guts,
And now,,,
He's alive before my own eyes,
Take off your mask now,
Okay, You've got good eyes,
I mean, you were smart enough to figure out
Britannica was my ledger from my previous job,
You must be out of your mind,
You really showed up,
You people,,, 2,7 million dollars!
You can't do that to a loser like my dad!
There's something you don't know, Let me explain,
Let go of me! Why did you show up now?
Why did you show up now, you prick?
I did it, knowing it was a bad thing,
And I did my best,
I was desperate for money,
But one day,
I woke up, and I became a person with money that wasn't mine,
100 million dollars, That means,,,
Did you come here to talk about yourself?
You see,,,
I was also dead,
If you know what your dad did to me,,,
I am well aware, He did the same to me,
But you lived,
Yes,
I am so sorry about what happened to your dad,
Bring me the ledger,
I'll catch the real culprit with it,
I don't trust you,
Do it with me,
Gong Hee-joo,
Do you think this is a joke?
This kind of job is for people like me,
So you,,,
What are you doing now?
Did you call the cops?
So do this with me,
Do whatever I tell you to do from now on,
And don't argue with me,
I'll see you here in an hour for the ledger,
No!
You prick!
Who are you?
Get him!
Hey!
You jerk!
Jeez, what am I going to do now?
Hey, what was,,,
Are you okay?
Is there anyone else who knows that I've got the ledger?
Hey, you two have really met?
You're that one, huh? "Lee Man-jae is alive!"
He's the one, His right arm,
What are you on about?
You've got a cast, What happened?
I was mowing the lawn and the saw blade popped,
It was you with the helmet at the printing house just now,
What the hell are you on about?
It was you who made me like this!
Someone took the ledger,
You are the only one who saw the clip, Tell me the truth,
So you think I took it?
- That could be fake, - Hee-joo,
Hold on,
- You think it's fake? - Yes,
Yes? I don't believe this,
What the hell do you want me to do?
Do you want me to show you? Is that what you want?
Hey,
Satisfied?
You can't do this to me,
Hey, Loony! Just one question, huh?
- Piss off, - Hey!
Gong Moon-sik,,,
How did you meet him? Who connected him with me?
There must be someone who introduced my dad to you,
For god's sake, I'm so over it,
You remember the junkyard in Bucheon, don't you?
The place where brokers and puppet bosses meet,
A guy I saw there contacted me,
He's called "Big Foot" of Bucheon,
He's the one who connected you,
(Dongbaek Rangers)
Where's the ledger?
There's been a problem,
Any alternative?
If there's no ledger, we need to find the real culprit,
Can you find anyone who was implicated
in the stock manipulation case
in Congressman Hwang's new party?
I heard SPOTECH was Hwang's theme stock,
There's a guy who died because his stock account was stolen,
The profit they took was 10 million dollars,
And who are you?
Who are you?
She's the daughter of Gong Moon-sik,
She's had the ledger from the first place,
So?
What are you going to do?
There's only one purpose,
To take revenge on the real culprit,
You can take revenge all you want,
All I need to see is Congressman Hwang knocked down
as we made the deal in the first place,
I don't care how you do it,
Just get me the ledger,
If you hate your dad this much,
why go through all of this?
It's not for him but me,
I needed to find the answer to why he had to abandon me,
It's good to lead a passionate life,
Being imprisoned made me realize
that although you haven't sinned, you have sinned,
What I mean is the sin that you've wasted your life,
Something like that,
What's with the tattoo on your fingers?
It doesn't suit you,

Is this "Big Foot" of Bucheon?
I've got a puppet-boss job,
What if he notices who you are in one look and calls the cops?
There's a rule even in this business,
We don't whistle-blow on each other,
I'm telling you it's not possible,
I've got a meeting now, I'll call you later,
You want to make a deal with me?
Like I said on the phone earlier,
I take five thousand dollars per month
plus another five thousand for risk charge,
Minimum three months and maximum one year,
We're here to ask you a question,
I'm just out of luck today,
Go away,
What a crappy way to start a day,
I've got an appealing tip for you,
Why don't you take a look at this and decide?
Can I have your wage account?
Puppet bosses can never get a loan because they have
the lowest credit rating, don't they?
But there was a precedent in February two years ago,
As long as the puppet boss has salary details,
he's a laborer,
That means even puppet bosses can get a loan,
but no one knows about this,
(Loan Transaction Contract)
You were right, This sure is an appealing tip,
Have you learned this stuff from somebody?
There's no such thing as seniority, How about you?
There's no seniority in this business,
You fly alone here,
There was someone who I wanted to learn from, though,
His name is Lee Man-jae,
He's dead,
Was he that famous?
He sure was,
He survived in this business the longest,
I've got some debt on my own to that guy,
What's that?
Some bookies only wanted a veteran
that I happened to slip his name,
I had no idea I was pushing him to the death trap,
Can you tell us who that bookie was?
What's this?
Is that what you wanted to ask me?
There are things that money can't buy,
- I'm getting off here, - Okay,
Help me, then,
Lee,,,
Mr, Lee Man-jae,,,
Goodness! Sir!
You really were alive,
I knew you were innocent,
Some chick just kept yapping
that you were alive on the Internet,
I was like, she must have a lot of time on her hands,
I for sure hit those "subscribe" and "like" buttons,
What are you two doing here?
I need to clear my name,
To do that, I need to find that guy,
Help me out,
I mean, I am scared it might blow up in my face, but,,,
It's been bugging me ever since I heard your news,
We'll call it even, okay?
I don't kno the exact detail of this guy
but I've heard a few things,
He's called "Laundry Cho",
No one is better than him when it comes to money-laundering,
There was a bizarre event in
which agents working for popular clubs in Gangnam
were summoned in a row by Financial Supervisory Service,
'Laundry Cho' needed accounts for his stocks,
So he gathered the popular agents of the clubs and offered them
100 thousand dollars each,
asking them to open their stock account in trust,
Because one can buy the trust up to 200 thousand dollars,
Who would turn down 10 thousand dollars
commission for just opening up an account?
That's how this guy had some fun investing four million dollars,
But then he got caught for stock manipulation,
The stocks went down the drain in the blink of an eye,
The problem was that agents had to fill in
the extra 100 thousand dollars they borrowed,
Shall I get in touch with one of the agents
who was involved in the case?
I looked into what you had asked
but no one was involved
in stock manipulation in Hwang's new party,
Then it's "Laundry Cho",
He's the only one left,
(List of Club Agents in Seoul)
This isn't my area of expertise,
I don't go clubbing, so I'm unfamiliar with their vibe,
You've never been?
The mechanism in that industry is obvious,
I'll go,
We'll go together,
You two must be goddamn awesome at your jobs,
Are you sure you can screw him over?
Thinking back then makes me goddamn disgusted,
Can't you tell that by seeing us sitting across from you?
Trust me on this,
Where will you find the scapegoats?
Knowing the history, Laundry Cho won't easily make a move,
He won't show for 20 people like the last time
but 200 people could make a difference,
You can get 200 people?
I can get 2,000 people if needed,
Holy crap!
Are you still in touch with him?
Yes,
We currently work together,
He said he'd fill in my loss
if I get him another victim,
Just get me a chance to meet with him,
It has to be one on one, though,
There's actually a way,,,
"Laundry Cho" used to work at a stock firm,
He holds special gatherings for the extreme rich,
I pour drinks like whiskey there,
While hosting the gathering,
I pick a person who looks like
the biggest pushover,
Then he contacts that dumb crap privately and offers a deal,
That's the only time you can meet him alone in a hotel room,
Sounds good,
There's a different theme for each gathering, correct?
Lucky for you,
this week's theme is a gathering
for young female CEOs in their 20s and 30s,
We'll use your name,
Is it at all possible that I look like
the extreme rich?
There are tons of teenagers with silver spoons in their mouths,
inheriting shares from their parents these days,
No problem,
How lucky am I to have met such noble figures,
When you think about
the most innovative corporation in the world,
where do you think of the first?
It's the USA,
Next is the potential to grow,
(Gong Hee-joo)
In USA,,,
Without having to care about other countries,,,
(CEO Gong Hee-joo)
Third is,,,
She's the CEO I told you about,
She made it early for her resourcefulness,
I told her it's a lucrative business,
She's very interested,
You can leave if you're done,
Okay,
So you're interested in a lucrative business?
Yes,
More so, if I can earn money easily,
You can get 200 people, huh?
How resourceful,
That makes 40 million dollars,
Isn't it beneficial for you too?
Your name is,,,?
Gong Hee-joo,
Let me see the list,
Confirm these two,
890211-2097456
851206-2597746
Okay,
Four million dollars
and 400 thousand dollars as a commission,
I usually consider this kind of thing is a taboo
but I'm just in need of some cash urgently,
Taboo?
People say that dealing with money
with women brings bad luck,
There's no such thing,
I get that you act like some badass,
running your business
but if you ever so much think about playing me,
your life will be done,
What the hell?
What the,,, How can a hotel get blacked out?
You little,,,
Do you know who I am?
I'm well aware, You're "Laundry Cho",
Did you think you'd be safe after ruining my life?
Lee Man-jae,,, You goddamn,,,
You,,,
You were alive?
Are you the bookie?
Or is there someone above you?
Answer me!
Stop talking crap and run for your life
if you don't want to die again,
I don't mind dying again
but I need to know who you guys are,
So say it already!
Are we really doing this?
We don't have time,
You piece of crap!
(Identification Card / Cho Pil-joo)
So you're saying
you delivered borrowed-name stock
that was laundered to the camp?
And you're the chairman
of Congressman Hwang's support association, right?
Leading candidates just get floods of money from everywhere,
Tell me the name of the bookie, You won't be exposed,
Who would believe you?
You don't even have a shred of evidence,
What the,,, Open the door!
The Chinese guys who kidnapped you,,,
You could ask them to testify, no?
You'll have to crawl back to that crap hole again for that,
Will you go?
Remember my eyes,
These are the eyes of a dead man,
Untie it!
Cho Pil-joo,
He graduated from Jung Dong High School, That's about it,
He'd been wandering about small ventures,
and he got a chance to work at
a sales department of a stock firm in Yeouido,
It looks like he made connections with political figures, then,
He seems to have excellent skills in building personal connections,
It's amazing how this guy gets to know big-shot politicians too,
After taking over SPOTECH in 2006, he brought in the chairman
of the Korea Baseball Association as the advisor of SPOTECH,
Then he used the chairman as a window to lobby,
Playing a match with professional players,,,
Imagine how psyched the children
of the politicians would have been,
I remember,
It became controversial
when the person at the scene disclosed the truth,
People said it was "aristocrat baseball",
The new party's inauguration ceremony is coming up soon,
Find out when it will be held,
I'm sure the public will feel anxious
about the party members' defection
but the trust the Minui Party has built
for a long time won't collapse easily,
I guess the figure who influenced the declined approval rating
is Congressman Hwang Chi-woon, What do you think, Congressman?
Which prick will win?
How much can the new party of Congressman Hwang change the world
when all he's emphasizing is to straighten names?
I'd like to say a famous adage of Shakespeare for him,
A rose by any other name would smell as sweet,
It's nothing serious, There was a minor collision,
I'm looking on the bright side, It could've been worse,
Take care of yourself,
The inauguration ceremony is just around the corner,
Speaking of which,,,
This is an herbal medicine drink,
Drink it for your health,
You must be annoyed since the Minui Party
is stirring up the pot about the party fund, aren't you?
I have complete faith in you that I'm not worried a bit,
They can talk all they want,
That money is as clean as the lake water of Baekdu Mountain,
I heard you went to Inye House,
Apparently, someone saw you,
It hasn't been long enough, People already know about that?
Are everyone's eyes on us?
Politicians always have
fortune tellers near them, don't they?
I mean, I got some help in choosing the party's name too,
This one is different,
He's a man of excellent insight like a thinker,
I'm sure there will come a time when you'll meet with him,
So,,,
Did he say I'll make it?
I told him this had to work out no matter what,
so he made one for me,
It's made with the best ivory,
(Hwang Chi-woon)
Is it a good strategy to use Lee Man-jae as bait?
General Vo Nguyen Giap known as
the Vietnamese Admiral Yi Sun-shin
used a "three-no-policy" in countless wars,
We don't fight at the time which the enemy prefers,
We don't fight at a place where
it's more advantageous for the enemy,
What do you think is the last one?
We don't fight in a way that the enemy can predict,
That's right,
One can only win when he steps out of his comfort zone
and sees the bigger picture,
I hope this new party can bring
a new sensation to Korean politics,
Thank you for your time,
- Thank you, - Sure,
Long time no see,
Congratulations,
I didn't expect you'd come now that we're rivals,
How can I not?
I was the one who advised you to enter politics,
Whether it's the Jaju Party or the Minui Party,
can the members explain who they are
to the public with only their party names?
Rather than that,
you should present what it is that you dream of,
Not the party but the politician, Hwang Chi-woon,
Will you lead my camp when I prepare for the big election?
You're all about keeping principles,
and I'm all about breaking those principles,
"In politics the strong win, even if they're wrong,
and the weak lose, even if they're right,"
You've changed,
You should go in now, sir,
Congressman,
can I meet the chairman, Cho Pil-joo?
Be my guest,
It is my honor to introduce you to
Congressman Hwang, the future of the Jaju Party!
Everyone,
the Jaju Party will remodel politics!
The strong Party!
Why did Ms, Shim make us come here?
She's not answering her phone,
Is something going on?
I knew you'd have a great strategy,
but now I see you've got some guts too,
As long as you have the ledger, I have no other option,
The ledger?
Is there such a thing?
I'll hand over Lee Man-jae,
Where is that prick now?
Here,
Aren't you pulling some kind of stunt just to ruin the event?
You people need to cut off Lee Man-jae and the allegation
of the fund for creating the new party, don't you?
Catching Lee Man-jae, the very person responsible
for the illegal fund at the inauguration ceremony?
Is there any bigger advertising impact
to prove Congressman Hwang's innocent?
I see that you really know how politics work,
Why aren't you in this business yourself?
Anyone can be the president these days,
Think about it,
In the Roman age, kings and aristocrats
used to watch slaves fight in an arena,
But now, we live in an age where kings fight with knives,
and the public enjoys it,
Do I want to be a politician who has become a joke?
Never,
But then, watching it from a step back,
I wanted to throw in a little help,
I'm like a blacksmith who sharpens knives,
not a bleeding gladiator,
I promise to bring up the outdated politics
to today's standard!
Where are you?
You'll see me if you look up in front of the podium,
I'm with Cho Pil-joo now, Come on up,
Today,
I declare the creation of the Jaju Party!
Were you acquainted with Ms, Shim?
Are you setting your foot into politics now?
What the hell are you talking about? Politics?
I don't give a damn about that,
Just enjoy the fruit I'm giving you today,
It'll be a fun one,
Hwang Chi-woon!
Gotcha!
Hwang Chi-woon!
Isn't he that guy?
The guy,,, 100 million dollars!
Take his mask off!
Isn't he Lee Man-jae?
Who is Lee Man-jae?
I thought he was dead,
- Is he Lee Man-jae? - No way,
That's Lee Man-jae!
Get Lee Man-jae!
Let go of me!
The CEO of SPOTECH, Lee Man-jae
who was known to be dead three years ago
after embezzling 100 million dollars
is found to be alive,
Yesterday afternoon,,,
- How many was it? - He threw 42 balls,
But it's been too long since he threw balls
that his shoulders are messed up already,
Change of the player!
Where's Ms, Shim?
How dumb are you to trust that heartless wench?
Her strategy to go all the way to China
and bring you back was superb, though,
But you know what?
Some things can't be won only with a strategy,
What can that be?
Power,
Like this, for example,
No matter how hard you make stuff like this,
I can just take it away from you with power,
You know what the famous Mike Tyson said, don't you?
"Everyone has a plan"
"until they get punched in the mouth," You piece of crap!
This is power!
Power, you idiot!
Stop!
Loony, how can you do this to me, huh?
You've always told me
to think straight,
The thoughts that will bring me money!
I'm sorry,
I thought they'd let you live once I bring the ledger,
Oh, right,
I heard you guys are like brothers,
Sure,
All things yield to money,
Get rid of your brother quickly,
and you should return to the game you like so much,
Loony,
get it together,
Look at me,
- Hey, - We,,,
We've known each other for around seven years, yeah?
Bro,
it's time that we switch hats,
Here we go,
It's time!
- Hey! - What are you doing, Loony?
Kill him now!
Let's do this,
Hey, Loony!
You pricks!
Loony!
Hey!
Don't do that!
You goddamn,,,
I'll kill all of you!
I'll kill you!
Die!
Hey!
Loony!
No!
You goddamn,,,
Why pull that stunt when you can't handle the consequence, you idiot?
For goodness sake, my clothes got dirty,
The appearance of Lee Man-jae has become a variable
in the success of Congressman Hwang Chi-woon's new party,
Congressman Hwang has been suffering
from the scandal of the party creation fund,
It will be interesting to see if
the suspicion will be dispelled this time,

What's this?
I'm sorry I lied,
Cho Pil-joo will be heavily sanctioned,
This is exactly what I had expected,
All the money that went into Congressman Hwang's new party
was detected in SPOTECH's sales,
There are only 10 million dollars here,
Where's the rest?
That's all I listed in my ledger,
I'll need to track down the 90 million dollars now,
No need,
This is more than enough to get Congressman Hwang,
This is the million dollars I promised,
It will be enough to get you to start a new life,
And this,,,
Please get me a divorce immediately,
Su-hyun,,, It's me,
Hold on, Don't hang up,
I'm sorry, I,,,
I'm too late, right?
Where are you now? Are you well?
Are you doing okay?
Have you got back to teaching students again?
- I'm hanging up now, - Su-hyun,

I know I have no right to be in your life,
But can I hear Sol's voice just once?
She doesn't need to call me dad,

Today, we're going to reveal the conclusive evidence
of alleged illegal funds to create
the new party by Congressman Hwang Chi-woon,
Seeing the bigger picture,
this is a piece of history too,
We knocked down Congressman Hwang with the ledger,
but the 90 million dollars that's left
is nowhere to be found though it's a much larger amount,
Leave it,
We're busy people,
One gets a cut when using a blade too often,
You're coming to my photo exhibition,
aren't you? It's in two days,
I think I found something big!
That's the logo of SPOTECH,
And this is the Dongbaek Rangers',
Even the Minui Party's,
All the warped parts are round,
and the curve values are the same,
Every designer has their preference,
Does the same styled logo mean the same designer?

who was brought in by Cho Pil-joo
so he could meet politicians,

(Faces of the Era, Photo Exhibition by Yoon Seong-su)
What brings you by?
I thought you'd come tomorrow for the opening,
I found something more fun while I was tracking down
Congressman Hwang's party creation fund,
Did you get the 90 million dollars?
What's interesting is,,,
When I was a businessman, all I talked about was politics,
Now that I'm in politics,
all I talk about is money,
Who's behind Cho Pil-joo?
I found out you used to be the advisor at SPOTECH,
There's unwritten law
even in collusion between politics and business,
Guys who gave a couple of millions or billions come clean
but the ones who gave hundreds of billions won't say anything,
All these seniors here have emphasized
you shouldn't do things halfway,
And yet,
here you are, asking me to come clean,
Do you know why politicians are below businessmen?
Because of flexibility,
People who supply reserve funds
to power never supply to only one,
The bookies made their bet on both Congressman Hwang and me,
These people took out Cho Pil-joo as their insurance
in case Congressman Hwang becomes more powerful,
It sounds like I was your insurance,
Maybe,
It's known publicly that all of this was done by you,
Have you seen any head of a conglomerate
being scared of being dragged through the mud?
But it's a different story with politicians like you,
We live in an age of hatred,
As soon as you get your name sullied,
you're done,
(Letters on the English)
How frivolous it is
what you're trying to do now,
However, how precious it is
that you are adamant to see it through,
This is the data of Dongbaek Rangers
that Ms, Shim got for me,
I checked a decade-worth of data,

the stadium are camouflaged corporations,
They're under the names of Leader Yoon's relatives,
How about the owner of the stadium?

leaving the real deal unchanged,

First of all, I am mortified,
I started my career to straighten the name of politics,
I guess I couldn't be the exception,
So today,
I, Hwang Chi-woon,,,
To be!
Or not to be,,,
That is the question,
I am alive,
- That's Lee Man-jae! - Lee Man-jae!
Congressman, follow me,
- Hee-joo,,, - Hurry,
(Corporate Name: Dongbaek Stadium Representative: Lee Man-jae)
That's the proof that Lee Man-jae
is the bookie of Leader Yoon Seong-su,
That data will knock down Yoon,
What are you two doing now?
I brought this all on myself to be falsely accused,
I don't even have the right to explain myself,
But even the puppet bosses who sell their names like I did
don't throw away their names,
What are you trying to say?
It looks like politics is all about
putting one's name forward,
Why are you trying to take the fall for all of this?
Bookies move toward power,
so a bait is needed,
As soon as Leader Yoon is knocked down,
the bookie will come to you,
Is it true you got the party creation fund illegally?
Is Lee Man-jae involved?
Is this your retirement interview?
I will not retire from politics,
Instead, I'll reveal how Leader Yoon Seong-su
of the Minui Party got the 90 million dollars illegally,
Lee Man-jae who disappeared after
embezzling 100 million dollars gave the money,
It was found that he provided the illegal fund
to the Jaju Party, too, through chairman Cho Pil-joo,
Do you think it is effective enough to be proof?
Can you reveal the source?
Yes, I can,
Anyone who's paid attention to Lee Man-jae's case
would know this person,
You've got enough evidence to prove charge from your testimony,
Is there a way to prove these ledgers
actually belong to Lee Man-jae?
Yes,
Like you said,
(No Caller ID) he has really called me,
You don't need to take care of this,
He'll pay for what he's done,
There's a reason why I have to meet with him,
Come in,
Let's have a cup of tea,
First of all,
I am not at all interested in who gets the power,
Of course,
the biggest sport in Korea
is to see who becomes the next president,
But the president is a temporary puppet boss of Korea,
isn't he?
It's the conglomerates that set economic policies,
It's the big countries
like the USA, China, and Japan
that sets national security policies,
You see,
I despise seeing one struggling for his life,
Who seek death shall live,
But there's no hero who's willing to die,
To die, is to live,
That's the very reason you were able to make it this far,
Why did it have to be me?
It wasn't you, It was your name,
Man-jae,
It means a large fortune,
I found it pitiful that you weren't living up to your name
when your parents gave you
such a great name,
That's why I borrowed it for a while,
Look,
I'm here to get the name back,
You're here to get your name back?
There's an old family secret to how my family has managed
to control the power,
(Lee Man-jae)
This is the tomb of names,
No one has ever returned
to get the names back that I borrowed,
The same goes for your fate,
Fate?

Are you aware of your fate?

Do you remember the time I explained
the difference between classics and porn,
comparing it to political funds?
Do you know the similarity between the two?
What are you doing now?
It's shamefulness,
People feel ashamed for not reading a single classic
and ashamed for watching too much porn,
What kind of repulsion would the public
feel as soon as they discover the truth
about the money that you people have such high regard for?
You completely tarnished your client's reputation,
Is this how you want to end your career?
As long as I see you feeling ashamed,

It's been a long time to shoot "Lee Man-jae is alive"
since the 200th special episode I filmed a while ago,

The highest level of politics
I've thought was to sell dreams to the next generation,
I know I ended up making the rich get richer,
You made me come to a realization,
So I'm saying you deserve to dream too,
Dream my ass,,,
Dreams get shone by the nonmainstream like you,
What?
You've become the nonmainstream too,
Unemployed,,,
By the way,
I still don't know your name,
You're asking me now?
Shim Eun-jo,
It means to help people gracefully,
I'm not sure if I'm living up to my name,
