The agreement with Dae Han will be reconsidered.
What are you trying to do here?
What do you mean by reconsider?
The civilians voted for you so you should follow their wishes.
Who are you to do whatever you want?
Ridiculous!
Just because you have no land to sell!
Right! Right!
That's not why, please listen...
Don't deny it!
'Oh no my land, what should I do?' Why won't you do this...
Does this even make any sense?
I'm not saying I won't do it.
I may have been too hasty in my decisions
and worry I might lose things.
I'm asking for some time to review the potential hazards.
What are you saying?
Let's go.
We can't just go, don't you have something to do?
No use crying over spilled milk.
Whether he goes and pours a new glass or whatnot.
It's up to the person who spilled it to handle it.
Bring over Mayor Shin.
[Episode 19]
Are you always this thoughtless?
Do you know what you've done just now?
I honestly don't really know.
So I plan to find out more of what I lost.
Is this a joke?
Don't you know how to read files?
Was there not enough data?
I hope this isn't some petty jealousy...
But I can't explain your actions today any other way.
It's nothing like that.
I just want to take some time and...
So frustrating...
What's your suspicion?
Just ask me straight up. Wouldn't that be faster?
Can you be honest?
What am I so afraid of as to lie?
Then what does Dae Han gain from this power plant?
That's it?
I told you that we want to be socially responsible.
That social responsibility is funding a presidential campaign?
Thanks to someone, I was able to draw a big picture.
After drawing the picture just like in the newspapers
I saw how businesses and politicians work together with each other.
Isn't Dae Han going to fund Choi Dong Gyu's presidential run?
Not bad, but what does it matter to you?
Inju can just reap the benefits, right?
Haven't you thought about the economic windfall of this lousy little town?
What have you got to lose?
That's the strange part.
I have nothing to lose.
Why did you need a puppet mayor for such a positive project?
And why pick Inju for such a project?
Isn't it strange?
Are you stupid?
Of course it's all because of the assemblyman.
I told you I'm doing my part for my man.
Something you couldn't dream of doing.
The jealousy is getting tiresome.
I thought so too initially.
But this plan was in the works long before he came to Inju.
He came to Inju because of this plan.
How are you going to explain this?
Are you writing a novel?
Well, let's see if this is a novel or not.
Until I have the answers
there will be neither an approval nor an MOU.
So I heard you went to the countryside?
Yes.
Why the countryside?
Provincial Government then the Central Office Group.
After Central Office Group comes the National Assembly.
After the National Assembly is the Blue House.
I thought that was the order.
How could you do this?
A rare man who cries over a woman?
Well, I guess you're right.
Is it common for a man to threaten the woman he loves?
Threaten?
I overheard everything outside the mayor's office.
And you still don't know?
Did that sound like a threat to you?
It wasn't?
So what are you really thinking?
You're asking that to a politician?
You have a long way to go.
I've decided who to work for, so I have the right to know your thoughts.
Who? The mayor?
And what if that's the case?
Think I can't stab you in the back?
I guess I'll have to deal with it then.
Get back to work.
[Environmental Regulation Reform]
[Welcome to the Port City of Inju]
I saw everything.
This has better quality.
Mayor Shin didn't want to sign the papers...
Shin Mi Rae did...
Mayor Shin wanted to stick it out...
Shin Mi Rae didn't want to stick it out or get hurt...
She just wanted to survive the two years
and leave this messy political arena behind.
Sweet dreams.
Why won't you pick up?
Are you with that neighborhood friend?
Why isn't it there? Where is the bike?
Did you spend the night out?
Why won't you pick up?
Are you with that neighborhood dude?
Why isn't it there? Where isn't your bike there?
Did you spend the night out?
What are we looking for anyway?
We don't even know.
Well, I guess something weird?
- Sorry. - Jeez...
But we have enough recyclable waste
so why do they want to import it?
Is imported waste better?
Why do people obsess about other people's...
Now that is strange.
Isn't it, Chief Lee?
Why do they import it?
What do they gain from importing?
Was I onto something?
Actually, it's fairly common.
It is?
China imports 70% of Britain's plastic waste.
And they receive $950 million annually.
It's all perfectly legal.
Dae Han doesn't import anything illegal.
It could happen.
Dae Han made this proposal. What if they're lying?
How can we find out though?
Oh, let's call them.
The seven European cities were on the list.
It's two in the morning right now in Europe.
It is?
What do we do?
Let's e-mail them.
We just have to ask.
Get to it.
Hurry up! Hurry up!
I haven't been on these shady sites in forever...
Yet some people are still obsessed with me.
What's this?
Did you send that e-mail?
I'm still at 'hello.'
But ma'am.
If your hunch is correct
the European companies apart from contracting
wouldn't tell us anything since they're on the same side.
That true...
Let's see if everything matches with their submitted report.
It seems like all the items match.
Yes, it does.
Let's take another look though.
It looks good on the outside
but it could be rotten on the inside.
Like Assemblyman Joh...
Let's go.
Couldn't they submit a bogus list?
Saying there's no harmful material.
They could do that.
Synthetic material can be tricky.
It's a mixture of different ingredients.
They could just report the harmless components.
Right, right.
So what do we do, if we want to look for evidence?
There is no way.
Not if the importers are set on deceiving us.
It's up to their conscience.
What do we do?
I don't think we're handling this right.
I believe in you, ma'am
but we can't do this based on just a hunch.
Feelings are feelings and work is work.
I worry that your feelings about Assemblyman Joh
may lead to losing a great opportunity.
I know that too.
They're not importing mineral slag or toxic sludge.
- What? - Pardon?
What was that about 'slag and sludge'?
How do you spell those words?
Would a spam from an adult site contain those words?
This is the one.
Slag and sludge.
Right?
Isn't this Dae Han Group?
What does it say?
A European company is seeking partnership with us.
Partnership? Why?
They heard about the company that signed an MOU with Dae Han.
The items we would like to export from your city
'Iron slag, copper sludge, and vinyl waste...'
'we heard you're planning to import them...'
We are?
'We'd like to sign a direct contract with your city.'
'We are confident our offer would be more satisfying.'
'Environmental regulations forbid us from handling the waste
but we hear it is possible in Korea.'
'We ask for a swift reply, Green Land.'
Wait, wait...
See, I was right.
It means Dae Han is importing toxic material.
You're right.
But how did I get this? How did they know who I was?
Right?
Does news travel this fast in Europe too?
Anyway, that's irrelevant.
What's relevant is that we have proof.
Great, they're all dead.
This is Mayor Shin, let's meet now.
Who are you telling to come and go, come here now!
Please read it.
Ask me if you don't understand some of the words.
'Slag' or 'Sludge', for example...
What's this?
Your acting deserves an Oscar award.
Like you don't know?
Inju is getting global attention thanks to a certain corporation.
Can't you get to the point?
Do all small time mayors have this much free time?
Do all daughters of large enterprises have no shame?
Dae Han has been caught trying to import toxic material from Europe.
What are you talking about?
So let's forget the proposal altogether.
I asked you what this is about!
Why are you asking me that?
Corporate responsibility?
What a joke!
You're not going to shut your mouth?
How dare you ridicule a corporation like Dae Han?
What? How dare I?
Do you know what will happen to the economy if Dae Han goes under?
Do you know the percentage of the economy Dae Han constitutes?
Do you even know the number of people working for Dae Han?
Do you know how many people Dae Han has fed for 100 years?
Do you know Dae Han put Korea where it is today!
How dare you accuse me with an e-mail from an unknown source?
Fine, let's say that this is true.
But it'll be more than two years before the plant is built
and these materials come in.
You won't be able to confirm anything
for at least two more years.
And will you still be the mayor of Inju by then?
Are you threatening me now?
Threatening?
I'm just letting you know I won't tolerate you anymore.
It's one thing to hurt each others' prides over a man
but another thing to hurt my self-esteem.
What makes her so confident?
Oh, I'm so fed up.
You don't have a choice.
So go sign the papers.
If you don't get up now, I'll call the DA.
Jerk...
I wasn't so sure before, but I am now.
I knew we couldn't be on the same team
but I still believed you.
Now that trust has been shattered.
I don't know what you mean, but have a seat.
You don't know?
You probably do.
What is this? You want me to translate?
Don't change the subject.
Didn't you say you weren't coming by for any more reports?
Don't change the subject, you're making me mad!
I'm not reporting to anyone who'll turn Inju into a trash heap
and make his father the president.
Listen carefully to my warning.
You're scaring me.
It's not going to turn out the way you want it. I'll never sign even if I die!
I've got neither money nor backup
but I do have ethics, convictions, and a conscience!
You've got a lot of things.
I know you're embarrassed to face me.
But I'll embarrass you even more.
I'm going to get myself a whopper too.
Because I learned from the best.
Don't you have more to learn?
As ethics and conscience have no place.
You say that, but you're curious as to what I'll do next.
Soo In was right.
You're cute when you're stressed too, Mayor.
Listen...
What did you have for lunch? With whom? I had sushi rolls.
I couldn't careless what you ate.
Are you off? What do you do then?
Having fun toying with me?
Is it raining? Do you hear the rain?
How did you get here?
I asked if you're having fun toying with me.
Since it's raining, would you like a hot beverage?
Will you stop!
Even when someone throws away some old thing...
You worry about it for days.
But why are you so nonchalant?
Do you know the one thing you should never do?
Giving your heart to someone.
Do you know what's even worse?
When that person won't give you his heart.
You shattered my heart into pieces, are you happy now, you jerk!
I really am curious...
Who you eat with...
What you do after work...
Take it.
I said, take it.
Aren't you going to put it away?
You're going to get soaked?
What's it to you whether I get wet from the rain or hail?
I'm already soaked.
You'll catch a cold, what if you get sick?
Forget the cold...
You're what makes me sick.
So get lost.
What are you doing?
- Let go! - Wait till it stops raining.
- Let go! Let go of me! - Go after it stops!
Let go... Let go, you jerk!
I cry over our memories even now...
Why are you doing this? Why?
Just don't do anything to me.
Don't...
Can't you give this jerk a shirt?
The one from before your diet might fit.
If not, a towel would do...
What?
It's nothing.
Just change and come out.
Mind if I change here?
I won't look, so go ahead.
I'm going.
What is this?
I honestly don't know either.
But I think it's something Guk was working on for you.
He worked all night without going home.
I thought you might know what it is
so I looked through the trash can.
This is the one.
Where's the assemblyman now?
He's meeting with BB at the Unification Party headquarters.
It's the proposal to change environmental regulations.
The waste material in question will no longer be barred.
There shouldn't be any problems importing them.
Even if there is a problem
it'll just be a slap on the wrist.
Fine, this will do.
- Good work. - Not at all.
It'd be even better if the Justice Party can sponsor the bill.
There is a way, sir. You can trust me.
Is that so?
Are you out of your mind?
With everything else going on, you're focusing on this?
You want to sponsor an environmental regulation?
You have to, sir. The presidential election is next year.
That's why I'm saying it's crazy.
What good is it sponsoring this lousy bill?
You asked me why I joined the Justice Party last time.
I did it for this legislation.
This lousy bill is going to bring down Choi Dong Gyu.
What?
The people will vote for the president
but this will bring down BB.
He won't even be able to run.
All you have to do is introduce the bill.
Are you sure?
I am confident.
I came to ask you something, sir.
Here as an assemblyman wanting to see the council head?
Or as a son wanting to see his father's friend?
I figured you'd come see me one day.
As you saw the other day, he and I go way back.
You called me Uncle until you were five years old.
You've caught so many.
You could turn into a pro, sir.
Do we know each other?
I was there when you were born.
I saw you grab a pencil at your first birthday party.
Your mother who had such bad morning sickness
came to see me one day.
Without your father knowing.
You were so bright and full of spirit.
How did you turn into this?
So I'm trying to undo the damage, that's why I came.
You must know why he left politics 4 years ago.
What's important is how much you support him.
Whether you intend to support him more...
Or you want to stop.
I've already stopped.
That's why I want to know.
Why did he support the current president in the last election?
Why did he not run and then resign from politics?
You're that very reason.
Pardon?
Someone found out about you and blackmailed him.
He had no choice.
Ethical lapses are fatal to presidential candidates.
But if that's the case
wouldn't it still be a problem in the next election?
No, it won't.
On the contrary, you've given him wings.
Finding out about his existence
the person who blackmailed him was Chairman Goh of Dae Han.
Excuse me?
Chairman Goh supported the current president at the last election.
But the president has tried hard to curb corporate influence.
So Goh and your father became allies again.
And what was a weakness is now a strength.
You and Goh's daughter are even engaged now.
And if you become a part of Chairman Goh's family
who will be able to stop those two?
What are you doing here?
I went to your office but you weren't there so...
Why were you there?
I wanted to thank you for the umbrella...
You didn't even use it.
I thought so too...
But I was standing under the biggest umbrella in the world.
Spring, summer, fall, winter, it's always a rainy season.
I was getting all soaked by myself.
Thank you, for making me myself again.
Are you okay?
People usually get sick after getting soaked like that.
Maybe the helpless maidens
but I'm tough.
I'm fine even after getting snowed on.
That's good.
But do you have time to stand around like this?
Didn't you say you were going to try out that whopper?
I just said that.
What I really wanted to say...
was if it's okay to show up to give you a report.
Come.
I'll be busy for about ten days, I just started a fight with someone.
I'll call you.
Wait a minute.
I know that it involves me as well.
Tell me how I can help.
Stick it out.
Wait a bit longer and don't sign the papers.
What are you saying?
It's just as I told you.
Mayor Shin won't see us.
We have the blueprint, and submitted plans for the hospital as well.
But she's always out.
You're telling me this now?
Meet with the landowners and check for a final time.
I will go to city hall.
And have you looked into that e-mail?
Oh, there's nothing to worry about.
I think the European side made a mistake with the list of items.
I guess Mayor Shin wasn't totally off base.
- Get the car ready. - Yes.
The mayor is at an event.
You should've scheduled a meeting.
I'll wait.
Guests sit over here.
Don't drink too much, it's all taxpayers' money.
Did I ever ask for any?
Oh, you're not going to have any?
That's fine.
Let me know if you want more.
Wait a hundred years for all I care.
Is she gone?
She said she'll be back tomorrow.
Again?
She's torturing me.
Should I just not come in tomorrow?
Want to make deliveries instead?
We were going to deliver free meals to underprivileged children.
Perfect.
Should we make it a three-day program?
- Careful. - Yes, ma'am.
- Looks delicious! - Looks good right?
Eat up.
You eat so well.
Thank you for your hard work.
Thank you.
How pretty.
How have you been, sir?
You asked for me...
You're deliberately stalling on the Dae Han plant?
Yes, that's...
It seems to me that Dae Han may be importing toxic...
In all of my life...
I've never seen anyone so clueless about politics or money.
I'm beyond angry, I'm enraged!
Once is enough. You make me repeat myself ten times.
You didn't even understand those ten times
that you make me come see you!
How dare you go up against Dae Han and me!
I don't want to deal with some novice
I'm so fed up, how am I suppose to take it anymore?
Even though you're that ignorant, you should just stop
so we can both save our dignities.
But if you come at me like this
does it mean that I'll have no choice but to destroy you?
What is it that you can do for Guk?
Sitting on the high tops of the mountain, just starting to flap your wings
why do you insist on bringing him down?
If you do not approve the Dae Han proposal by tomorrow
I'll have to do things my way.
Other people messed with you, but I won't.
I'll mess with everyone that you know.
Shared suffering can be overcome.
First, I'll target the lifeline of this city, Inju Textiles.
Then your city hall employees, and their families
their in-laws, their friends, and their neighbors.
They'll have to deal with it for electing a mayor who wears a skirt.
But shouldn't you prevent all of this as the mayor?
The power is turned off. Your call is being directed to voice mail...
I can't reach the assemblyman... Where is he?
You haven't heard?
He went on a business trip to Europe.
For ten days.
Come this afternoon.
I'll sign those papers.
You said you had something to say?
Say it.
Are you shooting a movie?
What's with the drama?
What is it? Hurry up and talk.
This is so frustrating.
And what's wrong with your clothes?
Have you been out all night?
Just be yourself.
It's not like you to take your time.
I have a favor...
I'm asking you with all my heart.
Please do me this favor.
It's my first and last favor.
So please.
What is it?
What's going on this early in the morning?
Why? What is it?
Honey.
I have to talk to you.
- Mi Rae...
Yeah, you got what you wanted.
She'll be signing this afternoon
so show up in your best dress.
And let off some firecrackers.
We can talk about the rest in divorce court.
Get rid of the other papers you took.
I'll file them myself.
It wasn't about that...
You said you'd never sign, what made you change your mind overnight?
You already know.
What do you mean?
Just pick up your pen.
I've never just signed my name anywhere.
But last time I signed something, it ended up in the garbage.
Do I have to go first again this time?
No.
I'll sign first.
The statement of apology on the right.
The contract on the left.
Thank you for your hard work.
I'll be sure to send you an invitation.
Why in the world did you sign it?
If you were just going to give up...
Why did you go through all that trouble?
Don't worry.
I can undo it all.
I'll overturn everything.
Overturn what?
You signed the papers, don't you know it's over!
If you overturn everything and they sue the city, are you going to pay them back?
Although I have a lot of questions
I won't ask anymore today.
Thank you.
So you can get a good night sleep.
I believe in you, ma'am.
So don't think about anything, and get a good sleep.
Okay...
Shin Mi Rae, Inju's own Wonder Woman!
Hello, I'm candidate number five, Shin Mi Rae.
Hello, I'm number five Shin Mi Rae...
Hello, I'm number five, Shin Mi Rae...
Wonder Woman, Shin Mi Rae, please watch over City of Inju!
Hello, I'm your mayor, Shin Mi Rae.
Did you have a nice trip?
Did everything go well?
Yes, was everything okay?
Yes, the mayor called once.
Don't talk about that woman.
I won't get to see her until tomorrow and you're making me miss her.
You're not hiding it any longer?
No, so you should just give up.
What's this about?
Are they going to escape to Europe and settle there?
That's the city you have to work on.
Paint a picture.
A painting by Assemblyman Joh.
Next up is legislation to revise importing of waste material.
Assemblyman Joh Guk, proceed as the sponsor of the bill.
The environment is our greatest legacy to our children.
So environmental legislation is not a choice, but a must.
Compared to those of Japan, Europe, and the U.S.
our environmental regulations are too weak and penalties lenient.
Such laws only violate the rights of our citizens
while lining the pockets of corporations.
Our chrome waste is four times that of Japan's
and our combustion is twenty times higher.
It's cheaper for companies to pay fines than to fix equipments.
And it's even cheaper to lobby politicians.
They ignore their conscience and capitalize on legal loopholes.
Should we let them ruin our children's future?
So we will redefine the list of waste material
and come up with a tighter and more detailed restrictions.
We shouldn't preserve corporate interests
but the green forests and the health of our people.
The proposed environmental regulation reform has been passed.
How dare you...
How dare you defy me!
This...
This was the best I could do for you.
The best?
How dare you!
You should stop here.
Then I'll forgive you for everything.
Forgive...
You're the one who interfered with my life!
I never planned to have you!
From the day you were born until now...
I tolerated you...
I did my best to tolerate you!
You'll have to tolerate even more.
You just lost your last chance at forgiveness.
You have two options.
Take the backseat or go all the way.
What will you do?
I don't have the confidence to lose to you, sir.
I'll win for sure.
What did you just say? Environmental reform?
Yes, the bill was passed an hour ago.
Once it gets implemented, including the power plant
all of our plants will be hurt.
- Our losses... - Is money the issue right now?
The legislation was aimed at Dae Han.
Which means it was aimed at me.
What in the world did you do?
Why would do you such a thing?
Ask your father why I did it.
I brought these contracts from Europe.
See for yourself what Dae Han Group was going to import.
There's no need.
I too regret that things turned out this way.
Regret?
Dae Han doesn't regret things, and I definitely don't.
Other women melt over chocolates
but for me, those chocolates were
your father's campaign funds and the power plant.
So there's no way I would import toxic material.
And even if it were true, you should've covered it up.
But if you confront me like this...
I have to take things farther.
This is one thing.
But it's another thing to make me a lesser woman than Shin Mi Rae.
I'm building that power plant as planned.
And I'll import even more toxic material.
- Go Hae. - You should've passed the bill earlier.
I already have the mayor's signature.
What happened?
Is this your signature?
Yes...
I told you to stick it out a bit longer.
I did my best to stick it out.
That signature is meaningless.
What are you saying? You signed it in my presence.
At that time, I was not the mayor.
Of course, I'm not the mayor now either.
Deputy Mayor.
That is correct.
The mayor has resigned before she signed the agreement.
It's a letter of resignation.
What?
Are you crazy?
What mayor in Korea hands in a letter of resignation?
It's the only way.
I'm begging you, Joo Hwa...
Just go along for this once.
I'll take all the responsibility.
Please, just this once.
I beg you...
The apology and agreement I signed were invalid.
You can take me to court.
I'll take the punishment for committing fraud.
I risked everything I could.
Anyway I...
I stuck it out.

I apologize for not having informed you earlier.
You should've just ran away and hid somewhere.
What kind of mayor just resigns like this!
- You're a nobody. I'm your son, Father.
Were you going to deny it?
I'm at court right now.
I'll let go of you now.
If you must leave, then go where you want to go.
So don't cry and go.
I want to become the president.
When I do become president, I will dance with my wife at my inauguration.
