Episode 21
Tae Joo, don't get a divorce. Let's live together.
Let's grow Sung Jin Group together, too.
I don't care if you fight with Seo Yoon.
Let's keep Sung Jin Group in this house and fight over it.
Now I'll keep the promise I made with you.
Until the end, I'll live with you in this seat.
That's too bad. I even bought a house in Sungbuk-dong.
There is even someone moving into that house.
I'll send you the divorce papers in a few days, Ms. Choi Seo Yoon.
Mr. Jang Tae Joo...
please excuse us.
We're going to start a family meeting now.
It's good to see a family having a nice chat.
It's all thanks to you. You told me...
Starting with a cement company and making big money from faulty cement
then taking over good companies with financial bullying
and creating 42 affiliated companies...
that's what your father did. Chairman Choi Dong Sung.
The dad I remember is different.
I went to the test drive of the domestic armored vehicle.
Researchers were crying thinking about Father...
Seo Yoon, I'll be the shield for Sung Jin Group.
The stones, the prying fingers, even that man Tae Joo... I'll block them all.
When I was in elementary school
on the day the Group became one of the Top 30 companies in the country...
Dad was really drunk and said...
'The war orphan who ate once every three days
is feeding 20,000 employees three times a day.'
I miss Dad.
We are... a family.
Because we share memories of Dad.
Mr. Jang Tae Joo.
Why is Sung Jin Group yours?
I saw hundreds of pottery pieces purchased from tomb raiders in the reception hall.
If you keep stolen goods for a long time, do they eventually become yours?
My father pulled a cart for 30 years.
He poured sweat.
And the one who stole that sweat is your father Chairman Choi Dong Sung.
It doesn't matter how you look at the world.
People look at Sung Jin Group as something Dad created...
When I have Sung Jin Group for 20, 30 years, people will say this...
'Sung Jin Group belongs to Jang Tae Joo.'
I gave a lecture about this.
Revolution is beautiful, because it lets you dream.
But revolution is sad.
Because in reality, it always fails.
While your father was pulling a cart and walking around the market
my dad changed this country
as Chairman of Sung Jing Group and the Federation of Korean Industries.
Those who were with him at the time will be supportive of my family.
If only you were content with the billion I gave you for selling me two-pyung of an empty lot...
If only you stopped after getting a few affiliated companies for one billion dollars...
You lost too many chances.
That's why I have this chance now.
The chance to take Sung Jin Group into my hands.
'The one with the will is miserable by himself'
'so he doesn't climb the mountain that he won't come down.'
'Under the sun or by the shadow'
'huffing and puffing like a sick dog with his tongue out'
'I've come this far.'
You said you only have celebratory drinks, right?
I guess you won't ever have a day in your life to raise another glass.
Sleep tight.
Dong Hui, Min Jae is meeting with the elders of the Federation of Industries for lunch.
Go with him and help him out.
When the three son-in-laws of Myung Jin Group were eying the company
Father lent him money to keep the management under control.
Chairman Kim of Se Yang Group had his sons fighting and...
Anyway, he'll help us kick out a goby fish out of the water.
Jung Yoon, Eun Jung...
please attend tonight's charity bazaar to help the elderly living alone.
All the wives of the prime minister, ministers, and senior secretaries will be there.
Tell them that we'll invite their couples to our reception hall this weekend.
I'll come to the department store by 5 o'clock. Let's go together.
I'll come to you. The airport's duty-free shop is opening today.
I'll stop by there then pick you up at home.
Thank you!
Seo Yoon, I called the advisers last night.
They'll take the presidents of affiliates and executives to Hampyung today.
They'll pay respects at Father's grave...
and swear to protect Sung Jin Group.
You make things too complicated.
When the other person gives you scissors, just win by putting out a rock.
The shareholders' meeting is a game won by whoever has the most shares.
Just because you have a lot of cheerleaders doesn't mean you'll win the soccer game.
I have a strategic planning division meeting, so...
I canceled the meeting.
Right, Tae Joo... Seo Yoon will take charge of the strategic planning division starting today.
I'll change all the executives of the strategic planning division at 9 o'clock this morning.
Let's finish the handing over of responsibilities this morning.
I'd like you to take charge of Parcel Service.
That's right, Tae Joo. Parcel Service is ranked fourth in the industry.
Bring it up to second place. You're capable.
Please stop by the department store.
I'll give you the deliveries from my department store.
Jung Yoon, I heard you changed the grass in the golf club in Incheon.
Hey hey, let me step on the grass.
Let's go for a round as couples.
But Seo Yoon, who will you come with?
I'll check with Director Park's schedule.
Seo Yoon, take the finance team under the strategic planning division.
Tae Joo, if you need any money for Parcel Service
you should give Seo Yoon a shoulder massage.
Give the bank book to your wife
and get allowance from her. That's easier.
Give me the budget for Sung Jin Parcel Service.
Don't worry. I'll give you enough for your allowance.
Manager Bae in Youngdeungpo retired.
Four action leaders fought for the seat.
When I came back from chasing away the kids at Shingil-dong
they stuck together to keep their zone.
Seeds of fists dried up in Shingil-dong.
President Jang, step back for now.
During the Warring States Period in Japan
when daimyo lords died
warriors stopped the war.
Because there would be no lord to give out the rewards even if they won the war.
Choi Seo Yoon... she believes that Chairman Choi Dong Sung changed this country.
But the gold that Chairman Choi Dong Sung had is what changed this country.
He moved stakes with gold dust
and moved officials with gold bricks
and moved politicians with gold chests.
That gold will come into my hands.
Tell Executive Director Park Moon Ki and Director Shin Chang Ho to come in.
I'm going to hold a shareholders' meeting.
President Jang.
I'll show them.
The game is not determined by the cheerleaders.
It happens in the stadium.
Director Park Moon Ki and Shin Chang Ho
were appointed as executives of Sung Jin Cement by Jang Tae Joo.
Dad interviewed them many years ago to be hired as new employees.
Dad also signed the approval for their promotions to team leader and manager.
But they could still be convinced by President Jang...
A secretary of an ex-president once said that...
when he dies, he just wanted 'Secretary of the President' on his grave stone.
I thought of you.
Perhaps you only want the title of Dad's senior secretary.
You started as Dad's secretary at the cement plant and came this far.
Directors Park Moon Ki and Shin Chang Ho both started at the cement factory.
Still...
I talked to them on the phone this morning.
I protected Sung Jin Cement for 30 years as if it was my family's home.
If there is an approval from the children of Chairman Choi Dong Sung
then I'll start preparing for the shareholders' meeting as you directed.
Director Park Moon Ki, Director Shin Chang Ho!
The people who work at the cement plant have a loud voice.
I won't raise my voice.
President Sohn Dong Hui is in Jang Tae Joo's office right now.
We need to have a plan...
Most people who go to Las Vegas come out at a loss.
They keep gambling even after they get a jackpot.
Dong Hui might be the scariest type of person.
Now that he has the jackpot of Auto and Chemical, he's stopped.
Take Jung Yoon's hands and come to this side.
If we win at the shareholders' meeting this time, what you want...
How long can you keep wanting more in this short life?
I should stop at a good point and enjoy it.
Jung Yoon and Auto are both on my side.
Thanks for everything. Come visit me any time, I'll treat you to lunch.
President Jang...
let's stop with the divorce and the shareholders' meeting now.
Wait until the water comes in.
We started all this because I didn't want to wait.
I'll meet with institutional investors.
If pension funds raise my hand, then I can win at the shareholders' meeting.
Set up a meeting.
Wow... the underlings who used to run coffee errands
became organization chiefs now.
Don't meet with that Tae Joo.
'I'll give you this, take that too.'
He'll hand out candy and throw some carrots too.
I have nothing to give you.
This is how I am.
I didn't write down your names when there was an investigation on public official bribery.
You had your daughter's wedding the next month...
so a father should go to the wedding hall, not to prison.
So I stayed in prison for one more year.
I'm sorry to make you feel uncomfortable.
Just help me this once.
Once you push out Tae Joo...
I'm not going to Hampyung, Father...
- with Seo Yoon again... - I'm sure you'll fight.
Wouldn't the frog know?
When a tadpole has hind legs, it'll have front legs soon.
I lived like you, too.
Kick out friends to another country...
send colleagues to prison...
'Why do I live like this?' I drank and I cried...
But when I woke up the next day, I'd walk around trying to make money again.
I matured after I turned 60.
When you mature after you get old, there is nothing else to do but regret.
Min Jae, if you could mature even a year sooner
I'd go through this suffering two, three more times.
Father.
Two boxes of this jelly can't last a week.
I'll bring more next time.
It doesn't taste good when you keep it too long.
Come often with two boxes.
Okay.
I can't even reach the fund managers at the pension funds.
I think they turned to the other side.
We need to secure an exit plan.
If we take one more step forward from here...
President Jang, we'll lose everything.
A servant is trying to occupy the master bedroom
and the other servants of the house are blocking his way.
And other lords in the neighborhood are running over with bats.
President Yoon, meet with President Jang.
Tell him to change what he has with money and get out.
That family considers President Jang a worm.
You can't even reach the institutional investors
and executives won't lower their heads.
You won't get a round of applause at the shareholders' meeting either.
My husband must be going through a tough time.
I wonder if he's even eating.
Well... my wife is the only one worried about me.
I'll acknowledge that... what you said is right.
That Dad stole other people's sweat.
This is tasty.
Was there a different world?
Pharaoh owned more than everything the people of Egypt had combined.
And in medieval times, it was the emperors, kings, and lords.
Was it Marx?
'From each according to his ability to each according to his needs.'
You know well... that kind of world won't come.
Well... why would I wait for the world that won't come?
We should do our best in the world we're living in.
The American economy is shaky. Europe isn't doing well either.
Sung Jin Group has a big impact on the national economy. We have to get ready, too.
You should stop here.
My family will take care of Sung Jin Group...
I saw it. Your family.
Chairman Choi Won Jae barely took his first step at the age of 50.
He's working hard now.
But the most dangerous thing in the world is...
when the incapable person works really hard.
Jung Yoon is an immature princess.
Wars and chaos... the era that Dad lived in was a mud puddle.
Dragons were born out of streams and war orphans became wealthy.
But the earth has hardened now.
I'll pour water on that land and spit on it too
and make a mud puddle.
The beautiful era of Jang Tae Joo becoming the chairman of Sung Jin Group
after being born in a ghetto, has been long gone.
You can't leave the game just because your father won.
Jang Bong Ho's son Jang Tae Joo and Choi Dong Sung's daughter Choi Seo Yoon...
I want us to deal the cards again but you keep trying to leave the game.
I'll pay for the shares you own.
Listen to me, Mr. Jang Tae Joo.
Why can't you listen to me?
Convincing is not done with words but it's done with power.
You saw it. My family's connections.
The power of Sung Jin Group.
Someone will eventually have that power.
Either Pharaohs, lords, kings, or us.
That power. I'm going to have it.
The prosecutors are investigating the procedure
of Ocean Capital's takeover of Daehan Bank.
It'll take four, five years.
Even if you hold a shareholders' meeting, there is no chance you'll win.
The institutional investors and the minority shareholders are supporting us.
I won't worry about what other people think.
The game will be over when I own half of Sung Jin Cement.
I'm not going to walk around asking for a hand.
You're reckless, Mr. Jang Tae Joo.
I'm trying to start the round that you try to end.
I end up being reckless.
Please have some. It's good.
I don't know what kind of person Jang Tae Joo is.
If you want to know, let's do a final match.
You should at least let me inside the stadium.
Tae Joo, you said you wanted to own all the lights in Seoul.
I thought...
that I wanted to own all the lights over there some day.
I feel differently.
The lights were on all night long at my house.
Dad gambled in the next room.
Sometimes, fights broke out early in the morning.
I was envious... of the house with lights off.
The houses with families who had one blanket over them
and fell asleep holding one another because the room was too tight.
Tae Joo... let's...
It'll be over soon, Seol Hee.
There was once a monster in the forest.
No one ever saw it.
People were afraid.
They offered a virgin every year...
and they offered a cow when they had a bumper crop.
But Seol Hee...
I went into the forest and saw that monster.
Chairman Choi Won Jae of Sung Jin Group...
He's one of ten people who move the economy of Korea.
I know what kind of person Choi Won Jae is.
You be the chairman.
Let's be co-chairmen.
Do it, you're the first son.
Tae Joo, I'm going to bet Sung Jin Group's future on the electronics business.
Go ahead, you're the chairman.
Choi Jung Yoon, the first daughter of Sung Jin Group...
The dress and shoes she wears at official events
are pictured on the front page of newspapers.
The envy of Korean women.
I know what kind of person Choi Jung Yoon is.
Eun Jung, there is a new shop called Artemis in Chungdam-dong.
I saw a perfect dress for you there...
I sold all the Card shares yesterday.
It wouldn't have any legal consequences, would it?
I just sold my own shares.
Park Eun Jung, the daughter-in-law of Sung Jin Group.
A capable female CEO who runs the department stores.
Do you want me to tell you what kind of person she is?
You were so capable, you were running Father's errands and spilled everything on Min Jae.
That's too bad. I bought one-year government bonds yesterday.
You should've told me a day sooner.
Sohn Dong Hui, the son-in-law of Sung Jin Group...
Tae Joo, I heard...
I heard that family looks at you like a worm.
It doesn't matter... how they look at me.
What's important is... how I look at them.
It's not a monster in the forest. It's a worm.
The worm that enjoys our fear hiding in the forest.
I'll blow them and make them fly away.
I'm going to be the owner of that forest, Seol Hee.
I heard it's hard to hold a shareholders' meeting.
All the high officials in politics and business are on their side...
It's a capitalistic society.
It's a game that you win if you have a lot of shares.
The rules are simple.
Seol Hee...
I'll buy half of Sung Jin Cement's shares.
Hey hey... that's the funniest story I heard this year.
Sung Jin Cement shares cost over 100,000 won per share.
To buy half of that...
Would it be enough if we pour in all the cash our family has?
When Jang Tae Joo had the withdrawal rights to the billion dollars...
You remember, don't you?
We went into the round that he created.
We have all the members gathered now. Let's deal the cards.
Hey hey... even if we hold a shareholders' meeting now, he won't make it. He is...
The shareholders' meeting is the rule of our world.
He was born in Shillim-dong and rose up with real estate.
The round that Jang Tae Joo creates...
what will be the rules for that?
It's a redevelopment of Han Riverside.
Tae Joo.
You said there are lots of houses with lights turned off.
Let's turn on the lights for them.
Tear down the shacks and give them apartments.
Tear down the narrow alleys and build wide streets.
From here to all the way over there.
Yes, we'll build a new city within Seoul.
Tae Joo... Sung Jin Group people are very greedy.
They won't just sit by and watch you...
Well, Seol Hee...
what defeats greed is an even bigger greed.
Are they the only ones with greed?
The ones over there who live in the house with lights turned off are greedy too.
Their greed, our greed...
Let's battle it out.
Let's encourage the villagers living in the straw-thatched house.
Tell them we'll build a house with tiled-roofs with wood from the forest.
Tell them that we should go catch the monster.
Seol Hee, I'll lead.
Okay.
Starting tomorrow, you'll work from Eden and I'll work from Sung Jin...
and start the city redevelopment of Han Riverside.
If we can succeed in selling the lots within a year, Seol Hee...
we'll have enough cash to buy half of Sung Jin Cement and even have leftovers.
Half the cash in Seoul will fall in the hands of my Tae Joo.
The city redevelopment of Han Riverside...
will be the biggest project since laying the foundation of ancient Korea.
The map of Seoul will change.
And the owner of the forest will change as well.
Seo Yoon, you know there's a banquet with
the prime minister and his wife and ministers and their wives tonight, right?
The wife of the prime minister is allergic to onions.
I asked them to prepare everything but Chinese food.
Tae Joo, I heard you decided not to appoint a lawyer.
I'm glad you decided not to get a divorce.
Come to the reception hall with Seo Yoon tonight.
Wow, Tae Joo!
You bastard. That's right, you should be in our family.
Eat together and work together every day.
I changed the lawyer.
I told him to submit the papers, but he's slow.
The papers will be submitted today.
But the alimony will be less than you expect.
I thought about it all night... now I know.
What kind of person you are.
There is an animal called a lemming.
It doesn't change its direction.
It keeps running forward and falls off the cliff.
No left turn, right turn, or u-turn.
It must be embarrassed of itself.
You've had a flower bed in front of you until now.
But what to do now? I see a cliff.
Well... I see the flower bed.
Do you think it's possible to buy half of the Sung Jin Cement shares?
You do the thinking.
I'll actually show you.
Don't worry about alimony.
Just buy clothes for your sister.
Bring the papers to me, I have my seal in the office.
Take a look at the divorce petition before you stamp your seal.
It has a condition of maintaining our joint voting rights permanently.
Mr. Jang Tae Joo!
The joint voting rights is our child.
We should raise it well.
We should share the parental rights and custody equally.
Divorce by consent will be difficult, Mr. Jang Tae Joo.
Well, it didn't even take thirty minutes to get married.
But it takes at least three months to get a divorce.
Until then, we'll have to share the room.
Once I stamp my seal and the court gavel strikes, then I'll move out.
Enjoy your breakfast.
Dong Hui, check the legal consequences.
And find a way to cancel the joint voting rights.
Jung Yoon, Eun Jung, at the banquet today...
Won Jae, summon the meeting of the Group security team.
I need to know... Jang Tae Joo's plan.
I'm going to create that cliff in front of him.
When I was little, I put down a nail on the railway...
and after a train passed by, that nail became a very sharp knife.
That road, that land...
it's been over twenty years since a train passed by.
Just like the nail became a sharp knife...
I'm going to build a landmark in Seoul on that land.
With all the loss you have, if you proceed with it as our joint project...
it will become your accomplishment.
I know you've lived your whole public official life as a noble man of integrity.
It won't stain your white clothes.
I secured the railway land through a private contract.
Director Jo will visit the city development office.
Did you secure the list of land owners?
There is 40,000-pyung of national land owned by public organizations.
110,000-pyung of private land
and 50,000-pyung of residential area nearby. It's 200,000-pyung in total.
The 7,000-pyung of new land in the riverside is the problem.
If you can't buy other land, you can make it up by buying the land next to it.
But this is right in the middle.
A Korean-American named Park Hyung Shik living in the States owns it.
Choon Ho, you take charge of purchasing land.
Seol Hee, you look into financing.
If a couple banks come together for co-financing
it will help with securing more investors in the future.
Mr. Jo Pil Doo must be excited.
He called again earlier, asking about how we'd take care of demolition.
Don't waste time on compensation.
Give them the amount they want.
And give them enough for prepayments before demolishing the shopping centers.
Okay.
Tae Joo, if you compensate even for prepayments, our profit will drop by a lot.
Choon Ho, let's share it.
I'll take just enough to buy half of the Sung Jin Cement shares...
and the people living in the underdeveloped area will have apartments.
And the tenants in the shopping centers will open the same stores in Seoul.
We'll all laugh...
and I'll only cause that Sung Jin Group family to cry.
When will you open?
As soon as we complete the first round of financing.
Managing Director.
The plan to redevelop Han Riverside was announced today.
Seoul City and six public organizations are participating in this development.
The real estate developer Eden is leading the project.
The plan is to develop 200,000-pyung of the city center as an international commercial zone.
It's the biggest project since the foundation of Korea and it will cost 24 trillion won.
It is getting attention as the project that will change the city skyline of Seoul.
I have four security guys following Tae Joo.
If they can't step on the tail, they should at least smell something but these bastards...
Ten percent of the total construction fee will go to Jang Tae Joo.
It's 2.4 trillion.
With that money, even if he pays double the price in an open market
he'll secure over half of it.
What do we do, Seo Yoon?
I'll meet with the secretary of civil affairs.
Reckless city development will cause the real estate market to skyrocket.
I can stop this.
The people living in those areas will be up in the arms.
Their houses that are falling apart will be taken away
and they'll be given new apartments with a view of the Han River.
They'll roll their eyes and be on Tae Joo's side.
Min Jae, Jang Tae Joo that bastard...
I know. I made a reservation at a restaurant tonight.
The three of us should have a drink together.
To celebrate.
The banks and Eden are participating financially with equal amounts.
All of Eden's assets and Tae Joo's cash are committed.
Empty out the bank book, empty out the wallet...
I don't even have enough to pay the credit card bill tomorrow.
They'll pay the compensation and buy
the apartments and shopping centers with that money.
We're complete with the first round of purchasing.
Seven hundred houses and 1,400 households of apartments.
We're still negotiating with shopping centers.
Tae Joo...
I received a flyer for a diet program today.
Do I look fat?
But there is land that Tae Joo can't buy even at double, triple the price.
The core 7,000-pyung looks like a borrowed-name owner.
The ones who have it always hide money and land under someone else's name.
The real owner will be coming tomorrow.
The real owner of that land...
is Sung Jin Construction.
It's been over thirty years.
After Chairman Choi Dong Sung participated in the development of Yeoido
he received the land instead of a construction fee.
Because of tax issues, it's been left under a borrowed-name.
If he can't buy that land... Tae Joo that bastard...
An empty wallet and a debt he can't handle.
If Jang Tae Joo wants to live, he needs to leave this country.
Seo Yoon.
It looks like Father grabbed Jang Tae Joo's ankle.
Father.
This is the first time...
I'm thankful towards Chairman Choi Dong Sung.
My Tae Joo is busy. Sung Jin Group in the morning, Eden in the afternoon.
It's about time.
Once we purchase the 7,000-pyung land, let's go with additional financing...
I just want to pay the employees on time.
The angle of their bow has dropped.
Their heads went down to the belly before, but they stop at the neck these days.
Tae Joo.
Well... I don't think we're close enough for you to show up unannounced.
Weren't you waiting? For the owner of the 7,000-pyung land.
How much are you trying to get for the land to show up here yourself?
A few years ago, if you handed me the withdrawal rights to the billion dollars
Aunt Jung Hee and I could have owned Sung Jin Group.
If you didn't leak the stock price manipulation of Sung Jin Card to the prosecution...
my portrait would still be hanging in the chairman's office.
How much should it be, Tae Joo?
I think it'll take a few years to calculate it.
Keep the 7,000-pyung land.
I'll develop around it.
I can still make a wrap without meat.
That's a great idea.
Change the plan, get the redevelopment approval...
and renegotiate with the banks on the financing.
It'll take another year.
If I help, it'll take a few more years.
Even Napoleon and Hitler who dominated Europe...
fell apart after attacking the Russian Empire.
Tae Joo, you should've stopped there.
There were a lot of revolts during the Joseon period.
The king was always someone with the last name Lee.
Was it Chuljong?
The one who lived as a lumberjack in Ganghwa Island
then took the royal throne.
That's the world.
The Choi Family owns Sung Jin Group.
If you want to stay in the golden empire, you should've stood next to me.
Or have been good to Seo Yoon.
Just like what you're doing right now?
Beg. Beg me to save you.
Ask me hold my hand.
I'll return it to you...
the exact words you just said to me.
Tae Joo.
I like you.
I don't live my life so that you can like me.
You'll have to live that way from now on, Tae Joo.
To stop...
They're telling me to stop.
Both Choi Seo Yoon and Choi Min Jae.
They're telling me to just watch their world.
Not to become the owner.
I'm going to tell them some day.
I'll tell them to stop.
I'll tell them to just stand there and watch the world I created.
To Choi Seo Yoon, and to Choi Min Jae.
Tae Joo, you should go for a walk or something when you get up in the morning.
You don't look good at all.
It's really tough for you these days, isn't it?
Well... thanks to you, one of the financing banks have dropped out.
So I stayed up all night for a few days.
Trust banks are requesting their investment back these days.
That's too bad that you can't find money.
I'm going to sell my shares.
I can't even touch the seventeen percent of shares from Daehan Bank
because it's under prosecutors' investigation.
I should at least fill up my rice jar with the four percent I received from Han Jung Hee.
I can't take out the family belongings...
I will give it to the first person here to raise their hand.
Before the day is over.
If I throw the feed, the dining table will become a battlefield.
When there is a crack among them
then I'll have my opportunity.
Won Jae, you should buy it.
I put down new grass in the golf course last month, so I have no cash.
Hey hey, I get my allowance from my wife.
Tae Joo, will you sell the shares for monthly installments?
Eun Jung, you should buy it.
I have no interest.
Consider the one who gave it to you. Don't throw it out because of a tough time.
Just keep it with you.
What to do, my husband? Nothing's going the way you want.
Jang Tae Joo is trying to separate our hands holding onto each other.
Even if he throws something on the dining table, Won Jae, Jung Yoon, Dong Hui, and Eun Jung...
let's pick it up and put it back in his pocket.
Have the seaweed soup. It's good for relieving stress.
I'm late.
Oh, Min Jae.
The soup's getting cold. Hurry and eat.
I met with the chairmen of the banks that participated in financing.
Tae Joo, they have a lot of complaints about the slow progress of the project.
They were asking to drop Eden and for Sung Jin Construction to join in.
Tae Joo, it's best to do business together with family members.
If we take the redevelopment project, you don't need to stay up all night anymore.
You should push for it, Min Jae.
The strategic planning division is re-assessing the profitability of the construction fee.
I'll move the Auto and Chemical buildings to that area.
If you have a few big corporate buildings there, it'll be helpful for initial sales.
A department store will open, too.
Tae Joo, I handed over half of the project approvals to Seo Yoon.
I didn't even dye my hair, but my white hair is turning black.
You should hand over the tough work on Min Jae, too.
Let's live our lives with a light load. Your face looks heavy.
I'm going to stop funding Sung Jin Parcel Service.
The audit will start today.
It doesn't feel so good to search through my husband's wallet.
Oh, Tae Joo. I moved your office to the annex building. Go work there.
Min Jae will use your office.
You don't need to clean it. Tae Joo left the office really clean.
I got here sooner than I expected.
I told you... that I'd be back.
Thank you, Tae Joo.
When I come back to this office, you should welcome me.
You look good for someone who's moving into a rental room after owning the master bedroom.
Because I got closer and you went farther away.
I'll come back soon to see you off again.
Tae Joo, Sung Jin Group is the Choi family's.
And I'm Choi Min Jae.
The redevelopment project of Han Riverside led by the real estate developer Eden
is in danger of being stranded from the difficulty of purchasing a core land lot.
As the purchase of 7,000-pyung owned by Sung Jin Construction is getting delayed...
The audit on the executives of Sung Jin Parcel Service just started.
And all the approvals signed off by President Jang
along with the account books are under investigation.
It looks like President Jang Tae Joo just headed to Eden.
If he can't purchase the core land owned by President Choi Min Jae...
the redevelopment project will be stuck.
This will be enough for President Jang Tae Joo to give up.
He'll try to find a way to proceed with the redevelopment without the core lot.
Let's stop looking at the 7,000-pyung that we can't buy!
Reduce the shopping center site and change the plan.
Land Corporation, National Pension Service, Military Pension, Teachers' Pension...
Min Jae is contacting the organizations that participated in the redevelopment project.
If the plan changes, all the organizations will cancel the contract with Jang Tae Joo.
Then President Jang Tae Joo will give up.
He'll file a lawsuit to purchase the land necessary by coercion for the redevelopment.
Let's file a lawsuit.
Put down double the amount of the land owned by Choi Min Jae.
Hurry up!
The lawsuit will be dismissed.
Won Jae is leading the legal counsel team of the Group.
Their school friends and colleagues will help us.
Mr. Jang Tae Joo will realize...
the power of Sung Jin Group.
The connections that my family has.
Something Mr. Jang Tae Joo can't have no matter how much he tries...
Yet we have it.
How interesting.
Mr. Jang Tae Joo had two-pyung of land that Min Jae needed a long time ago.
The one who gets orders from you is telling me this.
He said he'll give me ten times the price.
But what to do...
I'm not selling this lot to you!
Now, Min Jae has the land that Mr. Jang Tae Joo needs.
How much do you plan to get for the land that you'd show up here yourself?
How much should it be?
I think it'll take a few years to calculate it.
The city redevelopment project of Han Riverside that started to gain half of Sung Jin Cement shares.
Even if he sells all the Sung Jin Cement shares he owns
it'll be hard to manage.
Mr. Jang Tae Joo is a wise man.
He'll come look for me before that.
What do you plan to do with President Jang Tae Joo?
He said...
that I couldn't have both Sung Jin Group and a dining table with laughter.
We should each have one.
I'll have Sung Jin Group.
And I should send Jang Tae Joo back to his dining table filled with laughter.
His mother and his sister will be happy.
Five cents per kilo for wastepaper.
Twenty cents for scrap iron.
The owner of the scrap metal store found wastepaper stuck in the scrap metal...
The smirking eyes that he had looking at my Father.
I remember them.
'I'm different from you.'
I didn't want to get that look.
I'm Jang Bong Ho's son. They're Choi Dong Sung's children.
What else is different?
Between them and me.
Choi Dong Sung's children...
Even Seo Yoon came to see me with a flower.
You came to an old woman's hospital room empty-handed.
What is he trying to grab with those empty hands?
We shared meals on the same dining table for years.
So I just came to console you a little.
What should I do? Choi Dong Sung's family became one team to catch me.
If you threw shares at them
you'd think they'd grab each other by their heads and fight over them.
It's too bad, Ms. Han Jung Hee.
How would that fight end?
Once they push you out, they'll start again.
Choi Dong Sung's grandchildren and further down the line...
the fight will continue.
It's not a place for you to stay.
I heard you have a sister at the proper age for marriage.
Find her a nice man and be nice to your mother.
I'll help you live with Sung Jae.
I'm going to push for his special release.
It's not a easy task.
I sold two-pyung of an empty lot for one billion won.
It wasn't easy.
The one who got 50 cents for his weekly allowance when he was in junior high
married Ms. Choi Seo Yoon.
Was that easy?
How would an old hag with few remaining days trust a promise with no deadline?
Director Kang Ho Yeon.
Please wait in my car for a while.
Please leave us for a while.
Even if you sit at the chairman's seat, if you say you forgot about this promise...
I even killed a man. Is there anything I can't do?
Do you mean, Congressman Kim Gwang Se?
He died in my hands.
Seol Hee wiped that blood for me.
Its statute of limitations still hasn't run out yet.
Before you lose your memory, I'll bring Sung Jae back.
If I don't keep my promise, tell the world.
You'll leave your crime with me
and then get one chance?
For the person running away from the fire in the forest
would he be scared if there was one more boar coming after him?
Dr. Park told me...
my memories will disappear in three months.
Then I'll forget what you just said to me, too.
Before that, I'll bring Sung Jae in this room.
Are you going to use him for a short time or will you keep him for a long time?
Who's going to take care of you?
It'll be over in a couple of days.
If you don't bring Sung Jae into this room...
your life in prison won't be over quickly.
Tae Joo, you wanted to hold a family meeting
so I snuck out of the dinner with the advisers just after feeding the old men some soup.
Hey hey... Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei...
they worked together to own a country.
If they were apart, they couldn't even have made village leaders.
Good thinking! Let's live together.
Divide the shares you have and share with the family...
I submitted the divorce petition today.
What am I supposed to do? I want to own Sung Jin Group...
but I don't want to be a part of your family.
Mr. Jang Tae Joo, if you can't secure the core land
the city redevelopment of Han Riverside will be canceled. Then...
I asked everyone to gather because I want to buy that land.
Even if you give me ten times, no, a hundred times the price
Tae Joo, I won't sell that land to you.
Since it's a family meeting, the family should decide.
He's here. He'll help you with your decision.
This is Director Kang Ho Yeon.
He served ex-Vice Chairman Choi Dong Jin and President Choi Min Jae for 20 years.
He has a very good memory. He has a habit of making notes, too.
He has a lot of documents, too.
He has a box full of them at home.
- Did you eat yet? - Yes.
President Choi Min Jae.
Shut up.
If you grabbed my ankle with the documents that Director Kang Ho Yeon has...
did you think I'd beg for mercy?
Did you think I'd be afraid of prison and hold your hand?
Did you think I'd sell you 7,000-pyung of the core land so that I can survive?
Seo Yoon, I'll go to prison with 7,000-pyung of the core land.
Min Jae.
Director Kang Ho Yeon, go to the prosecutors' office.
Submit my documents.
- President Choi Min Jae. - Tae Joo!
I told you... I hate Chairman Choi Dong Sung and I hate you.
Chairman Choi Dong Sung is no longer living...
but you're right in front of me.
Min Jae, still...
It's Tae Joo's last card.
He doesn't have any more hidden cards.
Seo Yoon, I'll go to prison first.
Send him to be right next to me.
Min Jae, I'll use money and power and get you out fast.
If we lose this chance, Tae Joo might have the Group in his hands.
Thank you, Min Jae.
I'll find a lawyer, Min Jae.
Well... the Choi family looks good.
But it's too bad.
I told him to discard all the documents on President Choi Min Jae.
If you make a stew with tiny fish, would that taste like anything?
You have to catch a big fish.
Director Kang.
For the last 10 years, following President Choi Min Jae's orders...
I've collected evidence and documents
on Chairman Choi Won Jae's corruption, embezzlement, and malpractice.
Did you say the statute of limitations hasn't run out on half of them?
Yes. It'll be a long-term sentence because it's a large amount for embezzlement.
Okay, let's start the family meeting.
The first son of this family, Chairman Choi Won Jae.
Please decide if he'll be at the dining table here or in the prison cafeteria.
