{\an8}UNDERCOVER MISS HONG

00:00:38,621 --> 00:00:40,206
I knew it was you.
4
00:00:40,999 --> 00:00:43,460
Yehppee was able to keep his face hidden,
5
00:00:43,543 --> 00:00:45,336
but he gave away something else.
6
00:00:51,426 --> 00:00:52,260
What?
7
00:00:52,343 --> 00:00:54,387
You already know, Yehppee.
8
00:00:55,221 --> 00:00:56,431
Hong Keum-bo.

10
00:01:02,062 --> 00:01:06,274
I set a small trap
before I sent that email.

{\an8}GENERAL MANAGER SO GYEONG-DONG

<i>So Gyeong-dong's "D" key,</i>
13
00:01:17,118 --> 00:01:20,497
<i>and as for Yehppee Candidate Cha Jung-il,</i>
<i>I broke his "E" key.</i>
14
00:01:27,796 --> 00:01:29,088
[Cha] It's working fine.
15
00:01:29,172 --> 00:01:31,049
-This needs your signature.
-[stammers]
16
00:01:31,966 --> 00:01:33,176
No, "E" is the issue.
17
00:01:33,259 --> 00:01:35,053
The "E" key isn't working.
18
00:01:37,013 --> 00:01:38,807
-Maybe you're pressing it too hard?
-Hello.
19
00:01:39,599 --> 00:01:41,851
[Cha] Test it out yourself.
Why isn't it working?
20
00:01:43,186 --> 00:01:44,395
-What's wrong…
-Mr. Lee.
21
00:01:44,479 --> 00:01:45,939
-Oh, hello.
-Help me with this.
22
00:01:46,439 --> 00:01:48,358
That keyboard's been
acting up all morning.
23
00:01:48,441 --> 00:01:50,485
The "C" and "E" keys
keep switching to English.
24
00:01:50,568 --> 00:01:52,278
[Cha] Mine's been doing that too.
25
00:01:52,987 --> 00:01:54,864
-Let him fix mine first.
-Sure, I can wait.
26
00:01:54,948 --> 00:01:56,157
[Hong] And the reply email
27
00:01:56,908 --> 00:02:00,161
I received from Yehppee looked like this.
28
00:02:05,708 --> 00:02:06,543
MEET ME AT 9 O'CLOCK TONIGHT
29
00:02:06,626 --> 00:02:07,794
AT THE SAME PLACE YOU USED
TO MEET WITH PRESIDENT KANG
30
00:02:07,877 --> 00:02:09,671
What's the issue? Everything looks right.
31
00:02:11,256 --> 00:02:12,382
It's missing periods.
32
00:02:14,801 --> 00:02:17,345
The moment I saw
that there were missing periods,
33
00:02:17,428 --> 00:02:20,765
I knew Bang Jin-mok was Yehppee.
34
00:02:25,019 --> 00:02:26,521
HELLO, YEHPPEE.
THIS IS HONG KEUM-BO…

Oh, no. It doesn't work.

00:03:05,977 --> 00:03:07,312
Mr. Bang, is your keyboard broken too?
40
00:03:07,395 --> 00:03:08,646
Forget it.
41
00:03:08,730 --> 00:03:10,315
You can blame your snacks for that.
42
00:03:11,107 --> 00:03:12,692
-Right.
-Makes sense.

44
00:03:14,903 --> 00:03:16,696

{\an8}then who's Hong Jang-mi?

{\an8}Your sis…
52
00:03:45,266 --> 00:03:47,435
{\an8}You stole your sister's identity
to get the job?
53
00:03:48,186 --> 00:03:49,354
{\an8}It's because of you.
54

{\an8}You, Yehppee,
55
00:03:50,939 --> 00:03:52,815
{\an8}ignored all my emails and vanished,
so I came to find you.

00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:56,527
{\an8}Tell me what happened to you.
57
00:03:57,028 --> 00:03:58,905
{\an8}If I find no justification
for your actions,
58
00:03:58,988 --> 00:03:59,864
{\an8}you can't go home.
59
00:04:00,490 --> 00:04:01,491

Even if there is one…
64
00:04:18,549 --> 00:04:20,051
we must make it not exist.

You have time to grab a drink and unwind?

00:04:38,486 --> 00:04:39,988
What about the assignment I gave you?

You still have them, right?

I guess you're at least worried.

00:05:39,881 --> 00:05:42,300
Are you worried I'll take them and run,
or leak them to the press?

if you're dead-set on leaving,

such a perfect opportunity.

Let's reach out to her.

What if she doesn't bite?
111
00:08:00,771 --> 00:08:02,273
Why wouldn't she?
112
00:08:03,608 --> 00:08:06,194
According to Oh Deok-gyu's mole,
113
00:08:06,277 --> 00:08:07,987
Inspector Hong was the one
114
00:08:08,070 --> 00:08:10,573
who initiated the internal probe
into Hanmin's slush fund.
115
00:08:10,656 --> 00:08:14,785
However, the prosecution asked her
to bring back solid evidence first.
116
00:08:17,455 --> 00:08:19,248
So she too is fighting a lonely battle.
117

Look at you obnoxiously jinxing us.

so we should be prepared.

Let's just focus
on completing the task at hand.
132
00:09:53,175 --> 00:09:55,428
A little insurance policy wouldn't hurt.
133
00:09:59,015 --> 00:10:00,224
Life insurance, that is.

[Hong] The slush fund ledger
153

never made its way to the FSS.
154
00:11:10,044 --> 00:11:12,380
It was intercepted
before the search and seizure.
155
00:11:12,463 --> 00:11:14,298
Intercepted? Then where did it go?
156
00:11:14,382 --> 00:11:15,383
Well…

You have a copy
of the slush fund ledger, don't you?

00:11:33,734 --> 00:11:34,777
No.
162
00:11:40,491 --> 00:11:42,743
President Kang Myeong-hwi
made it very clear
163
00:11:42,827 --> 00:11:46,664
that if something happened to him,
all files were to be destroyed.
164
00:11:47,164 --> 00:11:48,958
So before I met with
Executive Director Oh,
165
00:11:49,041 --> 00:11:51,877
I deleted the backup
and shredded everything else.
166
00:11:54,672 --> 00:11:57,091
You expect me to believe that?
167
00:11:58,717 --> 00:12:00,219
How exactly am I supposed to trust you?
168
00:12:00,970 --> 00:12:03,180
It's not like
you'll take responsibility for my life.
169
00:12:03,264 --> 00:12:06,809
I have a family to support,
yet you want me to gamble my life?
170
00:12:06,892 --> 00:12:10,062
I understand the sense of fear
and helplessness you're feeling right now.
171

Nine years ago,
172
00:12:16,694 --> 00:12:18,362
whistleblowing cost me my first job.
173
00:12:26,954 --> 00:12:29,415
[executive] She reported Hanmin
for accounting fraud,
174
00:12:29,915 --> 00:12:31,834
but their countersuit ruined her.
175
00:12:32,418 --> 00:12:33,544
[executive 2] How naive.
176
00:12:39,341 --> 00:12:40,801
Wait, my wallet.

00:12:43,596 --> 00:12:44,430

<i>The hardest part back then…</i>
182
00:13:01,697 --> 00:13:03,532
wasn't losing my job
but losing the people,
183
00:13:05,117 --> 00:13:07,036
and the regret that I ended up alone.
184
00:13:11,790 --> 00:13:14,543
That's why I infiltrated Hanmin
to find Yehppee.
185
00:13:15,961 --> 00:13:17,546
Because I know what that feels like.
186
00:13:23,469 --> 00:13:24,386
Mr. Bang.
187
00:13:25,221 --> 00:13:26,472
Could you maybe think of this
188
00:13:27,723 --> 00:13:30,267
not as a gamble
but as a final investment in me?
189
00:13:31,685 --> 00:13:34,438
I'll take responsibility and protect you,
no matter what happens.
190
00:13:39,944 --> 00:13:41,028
I came here…
191
00:13:43,072 --> 00:13:44,031

192
00:13:47,618 --> 00:13:49,161

Do you really think
President Kang's accident…
194
00:13:58,170 --> 00:13:59,255
was a coincidence?

I'll expose you
as the scheming brat you are

for all to see,
even if it kills me. [scoffs]
200

Hello there. Welcome to Ullala Chicken.

Sit wherever you'd like.
202
00:14:50,764 --> 00:14:51,599
The menu's there.
203
00:15:00,900 --> 00:15:02,026
Are you here by yourself?
204
00:15:02,109 --> 00:15:03,694
Yes. [chuckles]
205
00:15:03,777 --> 00:15:06,864
Take your time and let me know
when you're ready to order.
206
00:15:06,947 --> 00:15:08,282
Are you
207
00:15:08,866 --> 00:15:10,492
Jang-mi's father, by any chance?
208
00:15:10,576 --> 00:15:13,037
You know my Jang-mi?
209
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:14,246
Of course.
210
00:15:15,164 --> 00:15:17,791
We're alums. [chuckles]
211
00:15:17,875 --> 00:15:20,085
I thought the name of this place
sounded familiar.
212
00:15:20,169 --> 00:15:21,170
I guess I was right.
213
00:15:21,253 --> 00:15:22,212
Gosh.
214
00:15:22,296 --> 00:15:24,965
You must be her senior alum then.
215
00:15:25,049 --> 00:15:28,177
I must show you the warmest hospitality.
Just a moment.
216
00:15:40,481 --> 00:15:42,358

00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:44,693

00:15:44,777 --> 00:15:46,362
Miss, are you all right?
219
00:15:47,571 --> 00:15:48,614
Have some water.
220
00:15:49,198 --> 00:15:50,240
Here.
221
00:15:55,788 --> 00:15:58,582
Who's that in the photo?
222
00:15:58,666 --> 00:16:00,501
That woman underneath the talisman.
223
00:16:00,584 --> 00:16:01,669
What?
224
00:16:01,752 --> 00:16:03,045
That's my eldest daughter.
225
00:16:03,128 --> 00:16:04,505
Honey, she's Jang-mi's senior alum.
226
00:16:04,588 --> 00:16:06,048
Hong Jang-mi is our youngest,
227
00:16:06,632 --> 00:16:08,133
and Hong Keum-bo is our eldest.
228
00:16:08,217 --> 00:16:09,301
They look alike, right?
229
00:16:09,885 --> 00:16:13,055
I guess our Jang-mi
kept quiet about her sister.
230
00:16:13,138 --> 00:16:14,723
I guess there's not much to brag about,
231
00:16:14,807 --> 00:16:16,225
since she graduated from Seoun University.
232
00:16:16,308 --> 00:16:17,393
Seoun University?
233
00:16:17,476 --> 00:16:20,562
Yeah, it's nothing special.
She's an accountant.
234
00:16:20,646 --> 00:16:23,399
She works in Yeouido now,
at the Financial Supervisory Service.
235
00:16:25,401 --> 00:16:26,402
I see.
236
00:16:27,319 --> 00:16:32,408
Ms. Hong Keum-bo must have
quite a brilliant mind. [chuckles]
237
00:16:32,491 --> 00:16:33,826
An educated
238
00:16:33,909 --> 00:16:35,077

-Oh, the chicken.

[moans] This is so good.
245
00:17:01,603 --> 00:17:02,563
It's so tasty.
246
00:17:03,230 --> 00:17:04,398
Is it?
247
00:17:04,481 --> 00:17:06,400
-Eat up, Bom.
-Okay.
248
00:17:07,109 --> 00:17:09,194
-You should have some too.
-I'm fine.
249
00:17:09,278 --> 00:17:11,071
Should we save a drumstick for Jang-mi?
250
00:17:11,155 --> 00:17:12,239
You eat it.
251
00:17:12,740 --> 00:17:15,034
I'm sure she had her fill growing up.
252
00:17:16,827 --> 00:17:18,287
I'm back.
253
00:17:18,871 --> 00:17:21,206
Jang-mi, come and have some fried chicken.
Queen Bee bought it.
254
00:17:21,290 --> 00:17:22,666
I'm fine. Enjoy.

-Oh, no.
-Are you okay?

had us completely fooled.
267
00:18:19,890 --> 00:18:22,309
Seriously, a 35-year-old
impersonating a 20-year-old?
268

Go Bok-hee, how old are you?
269
00:18:25,854 --> 00:18:26,772
I'm 29.
270
00:18:29,650 --> 00:18:30,859
Exactly.
271
00:18:31,443 --> 00:18:33,403
So I'm six whole years older than you.
272
00:18:34,988 --> 00:18:37,950
When you were a snot-nosed kid
about to enter school,

I was eating jajangmyeon
with my elementary school diploma in hand.
274
00:18:43,747 --> 00:18:45,541
And what if I tell everyone outside--

Do you remember Hong Keum-bo?
She's the one you had me handle last time.
315
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:33,602
<i>There's a car parked by my shop,</i>
316

-Hello, sir.
-Hong Keum-bo?
318
00:22:40,901 --> 00:22:43,904
The car is parked there,
but no one's inside it?
319
00:22:44,988 --> 00:22:47,783
You said the spoiled brat
who came by recently
320
00:22:47,866 --> 00:22:49,993
was the chairman's grandson, right?
321
00:22:50,577 --> 00:22:54,247
I think the girl who interfered then
was Hong Keum-bo.
322
00:22:55,916 --> 00:22:56,750
So basically,
323
00:22:56,833 --> 00:22:59,503
they came separately,
but left together in one car.
324
00:23:00,087 --> 00:23:01,880
How do they know each other?

00:23:03,882 --> 00:23:05,258

It sounded like
you were on an urgent call.

00:23:38,333 --> 00:23:39,876
I hope I didn't disturb you.
333
00:23:41,294 --> 00:23:42,170
Not at all.

It was just another work call.
335
00:23:44,422 --> 00:23:46,550
A few days ago,
one of our female employees
336
00:23:46,633 --> 00:23:48,885
was attacked by an assailant
on company grounds.
337
00:23:49,469 --> 00:23:50,303
Pardon?
338
00:23:51,096 --> 00:23:52,264
One of our employees?
339
00:23:52,347 --> 00:23:55,934
Yes, I witnessed the event and handed
the attacker over to the police.
340
00:23:56,017 --> 00:23:58,228
He turned out to be
Ms. Go's recently released brother.
341
00:23:59,229 --> 00:24:01,398
He claimed he mistook
his victim for Ms. Go.
342
00:24:01,481 --> 00:24:03,900
I thought I would let you know
343
00:24:03,984 --> 00:24:06,444
since it concerns one of the employees
under your care.
344
00:24:07,070 --> 00:24:09,531

00:24:53,617 --> 00:24:57,329
See? What did I tell you?
I always knew it was him.
356
00:24:57,412 --> 00:24:58,705
It's the first time I'm hearing about it.
357
00:25:02,918 --> 00:25:05,295
So when is he going to
hand over the files?
358
00:25:06,254 --> 00:25:07,839
There's nothing to hand over.
359
00:25:07,923 --> 00:25:09,883
He said even the backups were destroyed.
360
00:25:09,966 --> 00:25:12,344
Man, you're one naive lady.
361
00:25:12,427 --> 00:25:15,138
You believe that?
He's just playing it safe.
362
00:25:16,097 --> 00:25:17,557
You have to butter him up gently.
363
00:25:17,641 --> 00:25:20,060
Try to gain his trust,
like I did with you.
364
00:25:20,143 --> 00:25:20,977
Think about it.
365
00:25:21,061 --> 00:25:22,729
You refused to go undercover at first,
366
00:25:22,812 --> 00:25:25,190
but I never gave up
until you were persuaded.
367
00:25:25,273 --> 00:25:26,316
Only because I was sick of it.
368
00:25:26,399 --> 00:25:28,652
It was done with great care and devotion.
369
00:25:29,736 --> 00:25:32,739
Hong, you also need to try
everything you can with him.
370
00:25:32,822 --> 00:25:34,324
Man.
371
00:25:34,407 --> 00:25:36,660
The stock market, exchange rates,
and bonds nowadays?
372
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:40,121
Something feels off with all of it.
373
00:25:41,206 --> 00:25:42,832
It feels like the calm before the storm.
374
00:25:43,375 --> 00:25:45,877
At this rate,
something major might hit the country.
375
00:25:47,045 --> 00:25:48,463
We might need to rush a little.
376
00:25:50,340 --> 00:25:51,508
Oh, right.
377
00:25:51,591 --> 00:25:54,094
He's not here, right?
Polish these for me quickly.
378
00:25:55,637 --> 00:25:57,597
These came from Mr. Yun
at General Affairs, right?
379
00:25:57,681 --> 00:26:00,475
-The heels need to be replaced.
-Don't be ridiculous. Hurry.
380
00:26:00,558 --> 00:26:01,685
But they're all worn out.
381
00:26:04,104 --> 00:26:05,230
Hand it over!
382
00:26:05,814 --> 00:26:07,607
[panting]
383
00:26:07,691 --> 00:26:08,984
Do I owe you something?
384
00:26:09,067 --> 00:26:10,527
I have nothing. It was all destroyed.
385
00:26:10,610 --> 00:26:13,822
That's how I managed to survive
that infiltrator manhunt last time.
386
00:26:13,905 --> 00:26:16,116
You only survived
because you handed over my photos.
387
00:26:17,284 --> 00:26:19,536
I handed over photos last time,
388
00:26:19,619 --> 00:26:22,622
but this time, I could hand over
the real Hong Keum-bo.

-Are you crazy?
392
00:26:32,173 --> 00:26:34,342
If I really wanted to,
I'm sure I could land
393
00:26:34,426 --> 00:26:37,262
a private meeting with the chairman
to discuss your past actions.
394
00:26:39,014 --> 00:26:41,057
Oh, so you've resorted to blackmail now?
395
00:26:41,141 --> 00:26:42,642
You started it.
396
00:26:43,393 --> 00:26:44,728
Give me that. Go away.
397
00:26:44,811 --> 00:26:46,354
-Mr. Bang!
-Go away!

It's already 9:00 p.m.,

402
00:27:21,931 --> 00:27:24,059
…and we might not be able to
afford rent at this rate.
403
00:27:24,142 --> 00:27:26,353
We're in the red
if we factor in labor costs.
404
00:27:27,937 --> 00:27:29,981
Maybe we should ask Keum-bo for help?
405
00:27:30,065 --> 00:27:31,983
Honey. Seriously?
406
00:27:32,067 --> 00:27:33,860
You want to borrow money
from your unmarried daughter?
407
00:27:33,943 --> 00:27:34,986
I was just thinking out loud.
408
00:27:35,070 --> 00:27:36,988
Why are you getting angry? Geez.
409
00:27:38,615 --> 00:27:40,408
We should just
start a farm in our hometown--
410
00:27:40,492 --> 00:27:42,243
You think anyone can farm?
411
00:27:42,327 --> 00:27:43,328
You can't live off dirt!
412
00:27:45,914 --> 00:27:47,290
Unbelievable.
413
00:27:47,374 --> 00:27:48,333
Take this too.
414
00:27:50,710 --> 00:27:52,545
Goodness.
415
00:27:53,421 --> 00:27:55,340
She used to be so gentle
when she was young.
416
00:27:55,423 --> 00:27:57,884
When did she become such a brute?
417
00:27:57,967 --> 00:27:59,969
NEW KOREA FUND
THE FIRST-RATE FUND!
418
00:28:02,472 --> 00:28:03,306
What's this?
419
00:28:04,516 --> 00:28:05,725
"New Korea Fund"?
420
00:28:06,643 --> 00:28:08,436
New Korea Fund…

NEW KOREA FUND

[reporter] <i>The stock market plunged</i>

00:28:16,111 --> 00:28:17,821
Interest rates are at a two-year high…
424

Stock prices have dropped
to their lowest in five years…
425
00:28:21,116 --> 00:28:24,828
The IMF Managing Director maintained
that Korea's financial markets
426
00:28:24,911 --> 00:28:27,330
are not facing a crisis
like those in Southeast Asia.
427
00:28:27,414 --> 00:28:30,166
But Korea's stock market has frozen over,
428
00:28:30,250 --> 00:28:32,460
with foreign investors
beginning to sell off their shares.
429
00:28:32,544 --> 00:28:36,548
{\an8}[in English] The Korean financial market
is not in a crisis situation.
430

{\an8}Not like those of

[chuckles]
432
00:28:41,386 --> 00:28:44,514
[in Korean] We're both busy people,
so we can skip the pleasantries.
433
00:28:44,597 --> 00:28:48,685
I'm calling out of concern
for the country, sir.
434
00:28:49,436 --> 00:28:50,729
Sure.
435
00:28:50,812 --> 00:28:55,567
I look forward to seeing you
at a year-end celebration, Vice Minister.
436
00:29:00,780 --> 00:29:02,991
He assures me everything will be fine.
437
00:29:03,074 --> 00:29:05,034
Even the oil shocks
that sent prices soaring
438
00:29:05,118 --> 00:29:06,828
and the foreign debt crisis in the '80s
439
00:29:06,911 --> 00:29:09,038
all came and went, like a passing breeze.
440
00:29:09,622 --> 00:29:12,041
Hanmin managed to endure
and stand strong through it all.
441
00:29:12,125 --> 00:29:13,710
That's true. [chuckles]
442
00:29:14,502 --> 00:29:16,504
[sighs] That reminds me.
443
00:29:17,088 --> 00:29:20,091
We sure made a lot of money back then.
444
00:29:21,551 --> 00:29:22,677
I sense a similar…
445
00:29:23,428 --> 00:29:24,262
No,
446
00:29:25,138 --> 00:29:26,473
it'll be even grander this time.
447
00:29:27,098 --> 00:29:30,685
I sense a major opportunity
on the horizon.
448
00:29:32,604 --> 00:29:33,813
[sighs]
449
00:29:37,484 --> 00:29:39,360
There's no issue
with the slush fund, is there?
450
00:29:40,361 --> 00:29:42,989
Is the OW Club fine? And Nora too?
451
00:29:43,072 --> 00:29:44,491
Most certainly, sir.
452
00:29:44,574 --> 00:29:45,700
All right.
453
00:29:46,451 --> 00:29:49,078
You can show Mr. Shin and Mr. Oh in now.
454
00:29:50,038 --> 00:29:50,872
Yes, sir.
455
00:29:52,123 --> 00:29:53,833
[Kang] How are the sales
456
00:29:54,834 --> 00:29:56,085
for the New Korea Fund?
457
00:29:56,169 --> 00:29:57,837
It was launched three weeks ago,
458
00:29:58,379 --> 00:29:59,798
but it's underperforming.
459
00:29:59,881 --> 00:30:01,633
After a US investment firm
460
00:30:01,716 --> 00:30:04,385
put out a report
telling investors to leave Asia,
461
00:30:04,469 --> 00:30:06,054
the 500 mark collapsed immediately.
462
00:30:07,263 --> 00:30:09,432
With investors spooked,
sales are struggling.
463
00:30:09,516 --> 00:30:12,393
Increase the sales target.
464
00:30:12,477 --> 00:30:13,353
Pardon?
465
00:30:13,436 --> 00:30:15,897
We need to raise the bar
to at least meet the average.
466
00:30:17,190 --> 00:30:18,316
But…
467
00:30:18,399 --> 00:30:20,151
Send out a fax to all the branches,
468
00:30:21,027 --> 00:30:24,656
and gather all the branch managers
for training.
469
00:30:24,739 --> 00:30:26,199
Yes, sir. I'll see to it immediately.
470
00:30:29,118 --> 00:30:32,205
Our branch's performance is on the line,
and it's everyone's responsibility.
471
00:30:32,288 --> 00:30:34,457
Let's put everything
into selling the New Korea Fund.
472
00:30:35,124 --> 00:30:37,502
The head office says
it'll take full responsibility.
473
00:30:37,585 --> 00:30:38,461
See?
474
00:30:38,545 --> 00:30:40,046
All right now.
475
00:30:40,129 --> 00:30:41,130

00:30:50,181 --> 00:30:53,184
It's too bad they raised the target
when you've already sold so much.
479
00:30:54,102 --> 00:30:55,895
If the branch doesn't meet its quota,
480
00:30:55,979 --> 00:30:58,648
that reward's off the table,
no matter how much you sell.
481
00:30:59,482 --> 00:31:00,859
I'll just have to try harder then.

Your brother attacked

President Shin did?

532
00:34:50,797 --> 00:34:52,507
Sir, this is Shin Jung-woo.
533
00:34:53,966 --> 00:34:55,843
My goodness, President Shin!
534
00:34:55,927 --> 00:34:59,013
Would you be free for dinner tonight?
535
00:34:59,097 --> 00:35:00,264
Ah…
536
00:35:00,348 --> 00:35:01,349
I am.
537
00:35:01,432 --> 00:35:04,393
Even if I wasn't, I'd make time. [laughs]
538
00:35:04,477 --> 00:35:05,478
Where shall I meet you?
539
00:35:17,073 --> 00:35:18,074
Try some of this, sir.
540
00:35:19,325 --> 00:35:20,827
This is for me?
541
00:35:20,910 --> 00:35:23,454
[gasps] My goodness, how kind of you.
542
00:35:23,538 --> 00:35:24,664
You're giving me this precious hairtail.
543
00:35:24,747 --> 00:35:25,873
[chuckles]
544
00:35:25,957 --> 00:35:29,377
Look at my suit matching its scales.
[laughs]
545
00:35:31,712 --> 00:35:32,713
[moans]
546
00:35:33,548 --> 00:35:35,633
That is so delicious. [chuckles]
547
00:35:35,716 --> 00:35:38,845
I assume you're planning
to have Inspector Hong Keum-bo
548
00:35:38,928 --> 00:35:42,223
return to the Seoul office at some point.
549
00:35:43,266 --> 00:35:45,101
Yes, of course.
550
00:35:45,643 --> 00:35:49,397
I can't just leave her
suffering down there all alone. [laughs]
551
00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:52,817
She might not be aware of
the great dangers that await her.
552
00:35:52,900 --> 00:35:55,528
Your subordinate's safety
should be the priority.
553
00:35:55,611 --> 00:35:57,280
You should take her back immediately.
554
00:35:59,198 --> 00:36:00,867
[chuckles]
555
00:36:00,950 --> 00:36:02,994
I want to bring her back just as much.
556
00:36:03,494 --> 00:36:09,208
However, unlike us,
who prioritize safety and well-being,
557
00:36:09,292 --> 00:36:12,670
Hong Keum-bo always puts
winning above all else.
558
00:36:13,254 --> 00:36:14,839
It's all-or-nothing with her.
559
00:36:14,922 --> 00:36:16,591
So unless she's knocked out,
560
00:36:16,674 --> 00:36:19,218
she would never back out of her fight.
561
00:36:20,970 --> 00:36:21,971
I mean, you two
562
00:36:22,930 --> 00:36:23,973
were…
563
00:36:25,975 --> 00:36:27,435
You know?
564
00:36:28,352 --> 00:36:33,024
Come on, as if I need to say it out loud.
[laughs]
565
00:36:34,859 --> 00:36:37,528
[moans] Could this be any tastier?
566
00:36:38,029 --> 00:36:43,117
The New Korea Fund's returns keep falling,
567
00:36:43,201 --> 00:36:46,037
but the higher-ups are
just riding the branches hard
568
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:48,331
over their weak sales.
569
00:36:48,414 --> 00:36:49,457
To make matters worse,
570
00:36:49,540 --> 00:36:53,085
customers want us to take responsibility
because we sold it to them.
571
00:36:53,169 --> 00:36:54,503
This is just between us,
572
00:36:54,587 --> 00:36:56,714
but hasn't the company made enough
from the service fees?
573
00:36:57,423 --> 00:37:00,134
Corporate employees like us
just do as we're told.
574
00:37:00,218 --> 00:37:03,304
How much responsibility
do they expect us to take?
575
00:37:05,765 --> 00:37:07,016
<i>Could you maybe think of this</i>
576
00:37:07,099 --> 00:37:09,644
not as a gamble
but as a final investment in me?
577
00:37:11,062 --> 00:37:13,981
I'll take responsibility and protect you,
no matter what happens.
578
00:37:15,149 --> 00:37:18,319
Anyone willing to take responsibility
during this hot mess
579
00:37:18,402 --> 00:37:19,528
is either naive…
580
00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:23,324
[chuckles] …or completely insane.
581
00:37:23,908 --> 00:37:25,201
[chuckles]
582
00:37:26,619 --> 00:37:28,621
Or maybe they're just desperately earnest.
583
00:37:41,342 --> 00:37:43,386
[phone rings]
584
00:37:44,679 --> 00:37:45,513
Hello?
585
00:37:46,681 --> 00:37:48,599
<i>It's Bang Jin-mok.</i>
586
00:37:48,683 --> 00:37:51,894
<i>Come to the bridge by the Han River</i>
<i>where we met last time, right now.</i>
587
00:38:11,747 --> 00:38:15,042
I know about the 24 billion won
that was embezzled by the OW Club.
588
00:38:17,128 --> 00:38:18,129
[sighs]
589
00:38:19,171 --> 00:38:20,089
So,
590
00:38:21,382 --> 00:38:23,634
you knew about it going in.
591
00:38:23,718 --> 00:38:26,262
Just hand over the materials,
and we'll take care of the rest.
592
00:38:27,430 --> 00:38:29,598
We'll make sure
your identity remains secret.
593
00:38:30,433 --> 00:38:31,475
You can trust me.
594
00:38:40,109 --> 00:38:41,360
I need a little more time.

Here at the Magang Branch,
602

Ms. Kim Mi-sook is the top salesperson.

-She's number one.
-[gasps]
604
00:39:21,025 --> 00:39:23,986
Now, let's stop making excuses.
605
00:39:24,070 --> 00:39:27,323
Take after Ms. Kim
and give it all you've got to sell.
606
00:39:27,406 --> 00:39:29,158
Don't just stand there
and give her applause.
607
00:39:30,409 --> 00:39:31,911
Congratulations.
608
00:39:32,495 --> 00:39:33,662
Well done.
609
00:39:35,039 --> 00:39:36,040
Thank you.
610
00:39:37,958 --> 00:39:39,543
Why do you keep coming home so late?
611
00:39:40,795 --> 00:39:43,464
Why didn't you tell me
you were attacked by Go Bok-cheol?
612
00:39:45,216 --> 00:39:46,425
How did you find out?
613
00:39:47,927 --> 00:39:49,553
Right. Shin Jung-woo.
614
00:39:49,637 --> 00:39:52,181
What did I tell you
about calling the president by his name?
615
00:39:52,264 --> 00:39:53,307
Queen Bee,
616
00:39:53,391 --> 00:39:54,892
you know how old I really am.
617
00:39:54,975 --> 00:39:57,061
He and I are in the same age group.
618
00:39:57,144 --> 00:39:58,562
We're only three years apart.
619
00:40:02,066 --> 00:40:04,318
We're having a celebration party,
so come on out.
620
00:40:04,902 --> 00:40:06,695
-Okay.
-We'll be there soon.
621
00:40:07,321 --> 00:40:09,240
Let me just get changed first.
622
00:40:14,537 --> 00:40:17,915
Quit, leave the country,
do whatever you must to stay safe.
623
00:40:19,291 --> 00:40:21,794
I hate having to tell the victim
to be careful.
624
00:40:21,877 --> 00:40:23,587
But I think Go Bok-cheol,
that crazy bastard,
625
00:40:23,671 --> 00:40:25,005
will end up retaliating.
626
00:40:25,089 --> 00:40:27,341
Yeah, he's totally a crazy bastard.
627
00:40:28,050 --> 00:40:30,928
I'm going to quit
and move out of the dorms soon too.
628
00:40:31,011 --> 00:40:32,012
Until then…
629
00:40:33,889 --> 00:40:36,142
can you keep this a secret
from our roommates?
630
00:40:36,225 --> 00:40:37,226
I'm asking you a favor.
631
00:40:39,353 --> 00:40:41,730
Since you're asking for a favor, fine.

-Congratulations.
-I was just lucky.
640
00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:01,625
No need to be humble.
641
00:41:02,209 --> 00:41:03,961
Fine. I did work really hard.
642
00:41:08,007 --> 00:41:09,341
Ta-da!
643
00:41:10,092 --> 00:41:12,052
This is for the sales queen, Mi-sook.
644
00:41:12,136 --> 00:41:14,388
And this is for her junior, Bom!
645
00:41:14,472 --> 00:41:15,848
How exciting.
646
00:41:15,931 --> 00:41:16,807
And…
647
00:41:17,475 --> 00:41:18,642
this is for you, Jang-mi.
648
00:41:19,226 --> 00:41:20,311
For what?
649
00:41:20,394 --> 00:41:23,522
Next week will be the end

What? Me too?

00:41:30,154 --> 00:41:31,280
Isn't this too much…
653
00:41:32,990 --> 00:41:34,366
It's not too much for you.
654
00:41:37,495 --> 00:41:39,580
Mommy, I'm sleepy.
655
00:41:40,498 --> 00:41:42,291
It's already past nine.

00:41:42,374 --> 00:41:45,503
Let's save your donut for tomorrow, okay?

00:41:47,004 --> 00:41:48,088
Shall we go to bed?
658
00:41:48,964 --> 00:41:50,174
Let me put her to bed first.

00:41:51,467 --> 00:41:52,510
Good night, Bom.

In an effort to address

Okay.

I'll call everyone up to here.
709
00:44:26,288 --> 00:44:27,331
You should start from here.

Mr. Oh, it's Hong Jang-mi.

00:44:36,340 --> 00:44:37,883
I'm calling from Admin.
714
00:44:37,966 --> 00:44:40,427
-President Shin Jung-woo…
-[Hong] He called an emergency meeting.
715
00:44:40,511 --> 00:44:41,512
Please head to the office.
716

-I'm calling from Admin.
-Hello, this is Hong Jang-mi.

Hey.
721
00:45:07,788 --> 00:45:09,623
Did you call
the Ministry of Finance and Economy?
722
00:45:09,706 --> 00:45:11,542
Yes, there will be
a special address tomorrow
723
00:45:11,625 --> 00:45:13,001
and term negotiations next week.
724
00:45:13,085 --> 00:45:14,253
How much are they borrowing?
725
00:45:14,336 --> 00:45:15,754
Well…
726
00:45:15,838 --> 00:45:16,839
That I don't…
727
00:45:16,922 --> 00:45:20,175
According to the deputy prime minister's
10 p.m. press conference earlier,
728
00:45:20,259 --> 00:45:21,927
the government will initially seek
729
00:45:22,010 --> 00:45:23,887
aid of 20 billion dollars
from the US and Japan.

00:45:44,658 --> 00:45:48,078
yet you have me find out
such crucial intel from the news?
736
00:45:49,580 --> 00:45:51,999
Just last week, when I went to check…
737
00:45:56,295 --> 00:45:57,754
Listen to me.
738
00:45:57,838 --> 00:45:59,590
You must think with a father's heart
739
00:46:00,132 --> 00:46:03,927
and consider your kid
who's studying abroad in the US.
740
00:46:04,011 --> 00:46:07,347
You must consider how much money
you'll need for that kid's future.
741
00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:11,560
I've already done my calculations.
742
00:46:12,978 --> 00:46:14,021
Let's first arrange
743
00:46:14,563 --> 00:46:17,316
a meeting today
with vice ministers in attendance.
744
00:46:18,317 --> 00:46:20,736
I'll take care of the rest!

Hello.
760
00:47:14,748 --> 00:47:17,626
This isn't the result of
our mismanagement or incompetence.
761
00:47:17,709 --> 00:47:19,169
It's because
762
00:47:19,253 --> 00:47:20,546
-of the global economic crisis.
-[sighs]
763
00:47:20,629 --> 00:47:22,464
Without immediate government intervention,
764
00:47:22,548 --> 00:47:26,176
the situation could end up
becoming a runaway train.
765
00:47:26,260 --> 00:47:29,763
-[tense music playing]
-Just as banks and securities firms
766
00:47:29,846 --> 00:47:34,601
provide people with loans
when they need money,
767
00:47:34,685 --> 00:47:39,773
the government should provide
financial support now in the same vein.

[employees murmuring]
769
00:47:41,942 --> 00:47:44,528

-[mutters]
-[employee] However, it'll be difficult

to provide public funds across the board.
772
00:47:50,033 --> 00:47:51,868
To assess financial soundness,
773
00:47:52,494 --> 00:47:54,204
we will need a repayment plan proposal
774
00:47:54,288 --> 00:47:57,874
and audited financial statements
from the last three years.
775
00:48:07,759 --> 00:48:11,888
Submitting those financial statements
will work against us in many ways.
776
00:48:12,472 --> 00:48:13,974
[inhales deeply]
777
00:48:14,057 --> 00:48:16,852
Then make it so that they work for us.
778
00:48:16,935 --> 00:48:19,146
Are you suggesting falsified accounting?
779
00:48:19,229 --> 00:48:23,942
It's not like the government can
hand out money left and right.
780
00:48:24,735 --> 00:48:27,487
We must go through the motions
for the sake of appearances.
781
00:48:27,571 --> 00:48:28,822
President Shin.
782
00:48:29,781 --> 00:48:31,825
It's just a formality,
783
00:48:32,409 --> 00:48:35,537
so do your best to make
the numbers add up nicely.
784
00:48:35,621 --> 00:48:38,248
Put that accounting experience
to good use.

786
00:48:42,002 --> 00:48:43,837

asked the government for money

And the government is no better.
808
00:49:42,521 --> 00:49:44,398
They agreed to release public funds

01:07:40,056 --> 01:07:44,268
Securities firms have the fastest,
most credible intel on Korean companies.
1059
01:07:44,894 --> 01:07:46,854
When the executives start floundering,
1060
01:07:46,937 --> 01:07:48,397
I'll make a clean sweep.
1061
01:07:48,481 --> 01:07:49,607
[chuckles]
1062
01:07:51,650 --> 01:07:54,320
Everyone has such aspirations at times.
1063
01:07:54,904 --> 01:07:56,155
Mine's not an aspiration.
1064
01:07:56,655 --> 01:07:58,949
I'm solving a problem
I already know the answer to.
1065
01:08:12,129 --> 01:08:13,130
[inhales deeply]
1066
01:08:23,641 --> 01:08:25,643
PUBLIC FUND INJECTION INTO
FINANCIAL SECTOR/HANMIN EXCLUDED
1067
01:08:26,936 --> 01:08:29,230
[sighs]
1068
01:08:29,313 --> 01:08:30,648
[door opens]
1069
01:08:35,486 --> 01:08:36,487
[melancholy music playing]
1070
01:08:36,570 --> 01:08:39,490
[breathing heavily]
1071
01:08:39,573 --> 01:08:41,033
That was your doing.
1072
01:08:41,951 --> 01:08:42,952
If we go bankrupt,
1073
01:08:43,035 --> 01:08:44,745
thousands of employees
will be out on the streets.
1074
01:08:44,829 --> 01:08:46,122
Is that the justice you seek?
1075
01:08:46,705 --> 01:08:49,542
Then should I have just let you
cook books and loot public funds?
1076
01:08:51,085 --> 01:08:54,088
Chairman Kang exploits crises
to line his own pockets.
1077
01:08:55,005 --> 01:08:56,799
Would you stay complicit
while his employees, investors,
1078
01:08:56,882 --> 01:08:58,801
and the public
pay the price for his corruption?
1079
01:08:58,884 --> 01:09:00,344
I just did what I had to do.
1080
01:09:00,427 --> 01:09:02,429
I was trying to save my colleagues,
1081
01:09:02,513 --> 01:09:05,057
not to blow the company to pieces!
1082
01:09:05,141 --> 01:09:07,309
Are you using your colleagues
to justify yourself?
1083
01:09:08,269 --> 01:09:10,604
Right. I almost forgot.
1084
01:09:10,688 --> 01:09:14,066
You're so devoted that you even led
the accounting fraud nine years ago.
1085
01:09:17,528 --> 01:09:18,904
We've met before.
1086
01:09:24,285 --> 01:09:25,953
-Please take good care of us.
-[all chuckling]
1087
01:09:26,036 --> 01:09:27,288
[person] Thank you.
1088
01:09:27,371 --> 01:09:28,747
Sorry, Keum-bo.
1089
01:09:28,831 --> 01:09:30,708
I'll persuade him to do the right thing.
1090
01:09:32,293 --> 01:09:34,879
<i>…committed suicide by jumping</i>

1091
01:09:34,962 --> 01:09:36,046

1092

[Hong] The Hanmin accounting fraud case
in 1988.
1093
01:09:42,511 --> 01:09:44,722
Do you remember the accountant
who jumped to his death back then?
1094
01:09:46,849 --> 01:09:48,350
He was my mentor.
1095
01:09:49,268 --> 01:09:51,270
He was my colleague. [breathes shakily]
1096
01:09:53,522 --> 01:09:54,732
[sighs]
1097
01:09:58,194 --> 01:09:59,195
[sighs]
1098
01:10:02,156 --> 01:10:03,657
I guess that settles it.
1099
01:10:05,534 --> 01:10:07,244
Even in the thick of the storm…
1100
01:10:10,164 --> 01:10:11,832
we'll never be in the same boat.
1101
01:10:12,750 --> 01:10:13,751
Never.
1102
01:10:59,046 --> 01:11:00,422

01:11:00,506 --> 01:11:02,341
{\an8}UNDERCOVER MISS HONG

{\an8}<i>But I wasn't trying to hide it.</i>
1107
01:11:08,514 --> 01:11:10,516
{\an8}You never asked who my dad was.
1108
01:11:10,599 --> 01:11:13,727
{\an8}If you think about it,
you're the biggest liar here.
1109
01:11:14,478 --> 01:11:15,729
{\an8}Damn it!
1110
01:11:15,813 --> 01:11:18,315
{\an8}You damn brat! [exclaims]

1112

{\an8}If Hanmin goes bankrupt on its own?
That's a win for me.
1113
01:11:24,863 --> 01:11:25,990
{\an8}A 40% staff reduction?
1114

{\an8}[Bang] <i>Show respect to your senior.</i>
