Subtitles ripped by www.vikisubtitle.com Are you going to be okay with your acrophobia?
I can handle this.
Let me get you some sedatives.
This pendant will protect you instead of me.
If you're in a dangerous situation, consider this to be me.
I wish I could go with you to protect you,
however, the situation is not favorable.
Thank you.
If only for your son...
Hyerim, you should come back safely.
Take this.
Your heart will calm down.
Hyerim, come back safe.
For Korea, Dongha and me.
Why do you think Mr. President sent
Hyerim Seo as the official negotiator of our hostage?
That's because her husband has once been kidnapped in Afghanistan.
No, there must have been some political idea when he chose her.
Don't you think you're too sensitive?
You don't know him very well.
People think he's a very honest and strong man,
but it's also true that he is politically
smart when he decides on something.
That's why he won against Baeho Cho in the last presidential campaign.
Of course I know.
That's why Mr. President has considered
you to be his successor for a long time.
Do you know who I want to be careful with
the most in this presidential campaign?
It's President Sungmin Baik.
A blast of wind from Blue House will blow me away.
What is it about?
I am Prosecutor Doya Ha.
This is a search warrant.
Please cooperate with us.
Let us start our search.
How are you, Mr. Chairman?
Like I promised you, I came to search your company.
We will cooperate with you like I promised.
Hopefully, you will find what you looked for.
This is your citation.
Please come to our office at 7 pm, 15th of next month.
Okay, I will see you then.
Mr. Chairman, I know a team of excellent lawyers that work for you.
Since your son-in-law runs for the presidential election,
you shouldn't be arrested on a charge of bribery.
Please come after being prepared perfectly.
You should also come up with an idea on how to avoid it.
That way, your son-in-law won't be in trouble.
I will see you then.
You're...
Are you satisfied?
Satisfied with seeing me in this situation?
Did you come to confirm this?
I didn't even think about it.
- I only... - Only what?
I don't know...
I just happened to see you.
I was just walking and happened to come here.
If someone is sick, shouldn't I come?
Isn't something strange?
Do I need any special reason for me to come to see a sick man like you?
Since you got used to the political speculation and deal, what did you get?
I'm not going to ask you to forgive me for what I did.
I am relieved to see you in better shape after the surgery.
Please take good care of yourself.
Do you feel sorry for him because he's sick?
Why do people do politics?
Isn't politics for people?
What can someone, who cares only about their own interests, do in the end?
Do people really care about the others?
They can't even wipe their neighbors' tears.
Who can they do politics for?
Is it really that hard?
Baeho Cho is very pathetic.
So are you.
Why is the negotiation taking time to settle?
What did they ask for when releasing the hostage?
From our unconfirmed information source,
they want us to release their leader.
I don't know how diplomacy works.
However, if we don't rescue them as soon
as possible, they will be in danger.
We have already asked the US negotiators to help us,
why don't we just wait a little bit longer?
Our people have been kidnapped,
and why do we have to wait for another country's favor?
Let me go and see them.
I will meet with them as an official negotiator from Korea.
It's too dangerous.
That's a war zone where the international
law can't be applied any longer.
We can't guarantee your safety.
Have you ever thought about how their hostage would feel right now?
If you care about their families, you won't be able to stop me.
Ms. Seo, you can't do that.
I have to check if our fishermen are safe.
I want to tell them that their government is trying to rescue them.
You shouldn't act recklessly.
If something happens, diplomatic conflict may occur.
I am asking this as an official negotiator
sent by the President of Korea.
Use all possible networks and set the negotiation table for me.
Hyerim Seo seems to have left for the rebel headquarters in Mogadishu.
She's in an area where we can guarantee her safety.
I might have charged her with an mission impossible.
Mr. President, it's dangerous,
however the Somalia government must feel
more obliged by the presence of Ms. Seo.
This has happened despite the UN's recommendation,
they didn't release the terrorist leader like kidnappers claimed it.
Since the official negotiator from the victim's country is there,
Somalia government must feel obliged.
That's why UN didn't stop her from going there.
All we can do is pray for her to come back safely.
As an official negotiator, I am here to rescue my people.
I don't think it's fair to make a political deal with a life of a person.
I want to see my people before we start negotiating.
Without it, there won't be any deal.
If I can't go back home with them, I won't leave here either.
If I don't leave, the international society will blame it on you.
And you will lose your legitimacy.
I am afraid.
I have a son in Korea.
I am afraid of not being able to see my son again.
However, those kidnapped people must be someone's son and someone's father.
I am here to give them hope.
Gentlemen, I have been sent by the Korean government to rescue you.
Is that true?
We're saved.
Are you guys all okay?
One of our colleagues is injured.
Please be strong.
I don't think I am going to make it.
Please don't give up.
I will stay until you all get released.
Your country won't give up on you.
I will go back home with all of you.
Please be strong.
And don't give up.
Thank you.
Mom.
It's hot. Take your time.
Yes.
This is delicious.
Mother, this is Dongha, this is Uncle Doya...
Mom...
Stop it.
They finally reached an agreement yesterday.
The kidnapped fishermen will come back home through the third country.
One of them has died because of a tropical disease.
On the other hand, Negotiator Hyerim Seo who
played the important role for their release,
stayed with the kidnapped fishermen for the past 20 days.
She will come home with them.
Here they come.
Father.
You rendered distinguished service to the state.
Please say a word.
I am sorry.
One of them has been able to come back with us.
I don't know what to say except "I am sorry."
How did you finally reach an agreement that had no favorable results?
We will make an official statement later.
Mom, mom...
Ms. Seo, please some more words.
Mom, mom...
Don't cry, mom.
She made another big surprise.
Was she Jeanne D'Arc in her previous life?
How can she always make a big hit every time?
What if she runs for the next presidency?
Next presidency?
Presidential election is not like a billboard chart.
Didn't you see what happened to the Hyuksin Party?
Congressman Oh, don't you know how scary the public opinion is?
She rendered distinguished service to the state.
The fact that she makes negotiations in
a war zone is the victory of our diplomatic history.
Mr. Spokesman...
Yes, sir.
Make an official congratulatory statement.
Please send a congratulatory message to her too.
Yes, sir.
Ms. Seo, thank you for having rendered distinguished service to the state.
But I wasn't able to save one of them.
If I finished the negotiation earlier, I would have been able to save him.
I can't forget his last image.
11 fishermen came back to their families.
You did your best job.
Since you have already experienced similar things,
I shouldn't have charge you with this job.
However, I couldn't help thinking about you.
That is why the President has to make cold decisions at times.
Now I realize how many people lean on your shoulders.
Thank you for understanding me.
Doya...
Did Dongha go back home yet?
Yes, he left with his grandmother.
You look so thin now.
You must have had a difficult time.
This is for your recovery. It's beef broth.
Thank you.
I thank you for coming back safely.
Starting from tonight, I will be able to sleep peacefully.
Hyerim, are you sick anywhere?
No, I am okay.
Why do you look so sad?
Is it because of that victim?
Hyerim, do you know what the scariest thing in the world is?
It's not to be able to see someone you love anymore.
I know.
I knew it before and I know it now, I refreshed my knowledge.
Do you know what the second scariest thing is?
What is it?
It's your face.
You look like a skeleton.
What?
So eat a lot.
I assume you had a difficult time there.
I assume you didn't even sleep and eat well...
People fall sick after a big event.
Look at you, you look great when you smile.
I was looking forward to seeing your smile again.
Didn't you say I looked like a skeleton?
Even though I smile, I must look like a smiling skeleton.
Now you're very much like yourself.
You have become sarcastic and nagging again.
What? Nagging?
Since we're doing this, we look like a married couple.
How are you, Mr. Chairman?
Lawyer Kang, how are you?
Boss, I only heard you retired. Now, I see you here.
How are you, everyone?
I have brought all my lawyers today.
Don't you mind?
This is the list of his lawyers.
Please let us have our daily pass.
You're so many.
What shall I do?
Only one of you can have a daily pass.
Only Mr. Chairman and the most expensive one can come up.
The rest of you should go back to your home.
Do you admit you committed bribery?
Sanho Group's political donation has always been legal.
This is the document about our political donations.
I think you should have done that officially.
This is the document about your money laundry through the Heritage Club.
It's so strange.
I know someone who claimed having received money from you.
However, no one claimed having giving it.
Then, why don't you bring the accused and accuser face to face?
Do you want it?
Let's do as he pleases.
Take him here.
Come in.
Long time no see Mr. Chairman.
I am sorry.
I should have gone earlier.
Forgive me.
No, I know how hard you tried to save him.
I heard you saw him in his death bed.
How was he?
Did he suffer a lot?
He missed you and your daughter.
He wanted me to tell you that he will love you forever.
Say a word to the victims' families.
Ms. Seo, you rendered distinguished service to the state.
Except one victim, 11 fishermen have been
able to come back safe thanks to you.
I want to express my gratefulness to you.
Do you think a loss of one victim was inevitable?
If we were from a stronger country, the negotiation would have been easier.
Don't you think politicians, like us,
should make more efforts to make this country stronger?
That's what I thought.
However, if we had to endure this kind of
event until our country becomes stronger,
what does this country mean to us?
That's why we need a strong leadership.
I have learned so many things from this incident.
I want a presidential candidate like you to think about
what is really important for your people.
I will be going first.
Have you ever received the illegal
political donation from Myunghwan Kim of Sanho Group?
Mr. Myunghwan Kim, have you ever given the
illegal political donation to Mr. Baeho Cho?
What are you doing here?
Are you playing a game?
Don't patronize the prosecutors' Office?
You're really great.
Come in.
Ms. Seo, these gentlemen are the congressmen who have joined our party.
Nice meeting you.
Please have a seat.
Like you know, we have no congressmen
since Congressman Cho has been arrested.
So when I heard you wanted to join our party I was glad,
but I was also worried.
We have been so touched when we saw you rescuing our fishermen from Somalia.
We believed that someone like you should reform our political paradigm.
I am so flattered.
May I ask you a question?
Of course.
People say all the political parties aim at political power.
But it's we have a low possibility to get that power.
In addition, we can't guarantee any political support either.
So are you still willing to join our party?
Of course.
When we decided to join this party, we have been ready for that.
Thank you.
You will never know the strength you have given me at this moment.
- Let's do our best. - Let's do our best.
Baeho Cho has been trying to have
Sanho Group's sore spot that was found with his evidence of bribery.
You may have to sink with him, if you try to get rid of him.
I will do whatever he wants.
Mr. Congressman, what happened to you?
Are you okay now?
Please stop making a fuss.
Would you do me a favor?
Just give me the word, Mr. Congressman.
Please give this to Prosecutor Doya Ha.
Prosecutor Ha?
Mr. Congressman, what is this?
This document will allow him to realize
how Sanho Group has offered illegal
political donation to Taesan Kang so far.
Yes...
Listen to me carefully.
This is my last weapon.
There is nothing left for me anymore.
So, give this to him without making any mistake.
You should let Taesan Kang know about this.
Then, this document will make Taesan Kang and Sanho Group collapse?
Heaven's Sanho Group may not collapse with this.
However, the people will know that Baeho Cho hasn't died yet.
Then, why don't you just make a deal with them?
I don't need any other deal.
I shouldn't have made any deal with him from the beginning.
Listen Mr. Congressman, why don't you just do this yourself?
Because he gives me a headache.
Yes, I will do it. Please don't worry about this.
Ladies and gentlemen, I am running for the next presidency.
For the welfare and unification of this country,
I will become the new president.
I need your support.
If this can't make Sanho Group collapse,
shouldn't I give this to Taesan Kang instead?
No, then what if Mr. Baeho Cho shows my weak point to Doya Ha?
You little...
You scared me.
Did I scare you?
Why did you call me?
Give this to your friend, Doya Ha?
What is this?
If you see it, you think you will be able to know what it is?
Don't touch it and just give it to him.
I have been in the wanted list.
If he catches me, I am going to jail.
Even Prosecutor Ha won't send you to the jail if you give this to him.
Consider this to be a delivery charge.
Have a quiet life until I call you, okay?
Get out of the car.
My goodness.
Ladies and gentlemen, I am Taesan Kang.
Hemingway said not having hope is stupid
while giving up on hope is a crime.
I think education is the hope.
Our children will have hope for the future and ambition through education.
You may give me a round of applause.
I want our children to get
a chance to be educated and to have a dream and ambition for the future.
Be careful.
Someone told me that because I look like a cold city guy.
Cold city guy?
I am not a cold city guy. But I am a mild city guy.
Who wants it?
Run for the next presidency?
Yes, since Congressman Min has declared his candidacy for the next presidency,
it's our turn this time.
As your political assistant, I have to know what you have in your mind.
Ms. Wang, please be patient.
This is not something I have to make a decision so hastily.
Maybe, we can get united with Bokji Party to
send only one candidate from the opposition parties for the election.
Excuse me?
How much are you going to pay me for this?
This was supposed to go to Prosecutor Ha, instead, I brought this to you.
If this goes to Prosecutor Ha, Sanho Group will be in trouble.
Did Congressman Oh ask you to give this to Doya Ha?
How did you know that?
Then, you should give it to Doya Ha.
I am sure you didn't read this carefully.
This is about you and Sanho Group.
Chulgyu Kim, didn't you say you're the son of former Congressman Taebong Kim?
Like father like son.
Don't humiliate my father.
Give this to Doya ha.
This will become important evidence...
We have conviction on which culprit it is,
however, we don't have solid evidence.
At this rate, we may fall in trouble.
No matter what happens, we have to do our best.
Hello?
Aren't you sick and tired of running away?
Why don't you just surrender to the police?
Let's meet each other now.
Don't make me laugh. I am busy.
Wait a minute.
I sent you a fax. So read my fax and tell me.
Fax?
What did you send me?
My friend, where are you?
Let's have dinner together.
Chulgyu, Chulgyu?
Where are you?
Here I am.
You little, are you going to come here or do you want me to come to you?
Are you mad at me?
Okay.
Are you serious?
Then, please smile for me.
Make it better.
You do whatever I ask you to do. You're a good boy.
Chulgyu, since I can hear you without this, let's hang up.
Let me come to you.
Promise me to stop searching before you come.
No, I can't.
Since you committed a crime, you should purge your crime.
Stay in jail for a few years and start a new life.
Really? Then, I can't give this to you.
Let's find an agreement through conversation.
What conversation?
Let me come to you.
You crazy man, would you stop if you were in my position?
Doya, please.
Give it to me and purge your crime with dignity.
Get this.
Every page of this document is very important.
Please help me pick these up.
If I catch you, you will be in trouble.
If he wasn't a prosecutor, the things I would do...
It's so cold.
The reason why I invited the three of you is...
Because I wanted to tell you that
my government will take a neutral position during the campaign.
That's a good idea.
I agree with your fair play spirit.
I agree too.
However, to take a neutral position,
shouldn't you personally declare your neutral position first?
He has already declared it and he has practiced it.
That's because he has been a member of Minwoo party.
Ms. Seo, are you asking him to resign his membership of Minwoo party?
How dare you?
She is probably right.
I will lead this cabinet in a perfect neutral position.
You should prepare this campaign with this spirit,
so the campaign will be a national fiesta.
Of course you have to.
Don't you think so?
I will do my best.
Boss, it seems we have been on the right track.
Really?
According to this document,
Sanho Group exports their merchandises while
their seller doesn't pay the price in Korea.
Then, what happened to Heritage Club?
Sanho Group repurchases the paintings Heritage purchased abroad.
Then, they laundry money legally and bring the money to Korea.
The money is given to the politicians.
Do you mean they laundry their money twice,
first in their foreign subsidiaries and second in Heritage Club?
That's not all.
Heritage Club sells the paintings to the lobbyists
and when then Heritage Club repurchases their paintings,
they take the commission which is also a way of money laundry.
If it were a real cloth laundry, the cloth must have worn out.
Then where has the money gone?
We found that the money has been sent to a secret bank account in Bahamas.
Do you think with this, we will be able
to arrest both Baeho Cho and Taesan Kang?
Let's just give it a try.
This is the budget I have set for the election campaign.
However, it won't be easy.
I am used to the campaign, but I can't get used to the budget.
Not only am I worried about the budget, but also the brain staff members.
We may manage to get the other things,
however, the budget doesn't seem to be easy at all.
Ms. Seo, you haven't made up your mind yet?
- Mr. Seo, how are you? - Ms. Seo.
I see that you come to Seoul very often these days.
That's what I think too.
My compass always leads me to Ms. Seo.
Have a seat please.
Is it your business trip to Seoul?
This is not a business trip, rather looking to settle down here.
I have already resigned from my post.
Resigned?
Did you get fired?
Ms. Wang, you disappoint me.
Is that what you think about me?
All of a sudden, resigned? What's going on?
Ms. Seo, please take a look at this.
My goodness. Isn't this the pledge about the construction?
Really?
Did you make all this by yourself?
You just underestimated me...
I have worked in construction for Namhae-do in the past 25 years.
Ms. Wang, you should be careful.
I can tell that you made an effort.
For me, it's an excellent job.
Ms. Seo, please accept me as your campaign staff member.
Excuse me?
You're the candidate of Hyuksin Party for the next presidency.
Mr. Seo.
You saved Namhae-do in a very short period of time.
If you become a president,
you will be able to rebuild this country too.
Your name will be remembered forever in our history.
I would like to make a small part of our history.
Please accept me.
Please run for the next presidency.
I will sacrifice myself for your success.
Thank you, Mr. Seo.
I really do thank you.
Thanks to you, I don't envy anyone.
Ladies and gentlemen, as standing president,
I think I have to build a fair circumstance
for every candidate in the next presidential campaign.
So, my government will take a neutral position.
At the same time, I resigned my membership from Minwoo Party.
How could he resign his membership of Minwoo Party?
What a disaster with Election Day a few weeks off ahead!
Even though he resigned his membership, isn't he still on our side?
Many congressmen in our party follow Mr. President.
What if they resigned their membership like he did?
It's a big trouble.
Doesn't this mean that he doesn't think Taesan Kang is his political successor?
Please don't exaggerate.
Honestly, since he gave up on our party,
isn't he giving up on Taesan Kang?
Now, our party is not a ruling party?
Don't you think you're exaggerating?
What is the democracy inside of the party?
Why are you so silent in front of him?
Congressman Kang, am I wrong?
I may be wrong...
What if Mr. President creates a new party and stabs us on the back?
That's not true.
I am sure his real target is somewhere else.
You have been my political teacher and mentor.
During the last presidential campaign, I made a contribution to your victory.
That's true.
I think I am the only one who can be your real successor.
Then, how can you resign your membership of our Minwoo Party?
I thought you considered me to be your successor, isn't it true?
You're someone who can lead this country
and have political power and vision.
However, to be my successor, you don't need my approval,
but our people's approval. If you can't accept this,
you won't be able to be my successor.
Mr. President, the fact that you assigned
Hyerim Seo as our official negotiator,
formed a neutral government, and resigned
your party membership are the signs of
your approval for Hyerim Seo, am I wrong?
If I assigned you to be the official negotiator, would you have accepted it?
Would you have stayed with those kidnapped
fishermen until they got released?
Would you have been sad with them?
Why don't you trust me?
All you need is the power to reform politics, isn't it true?
When you give up on that ambition, you
will be able to be my genuine successor.
I understand.
Thank you for having pointed out my weaknesses.
There have been more than congressmen
who resigned their party membership along with Mr. President.
I knew it.
How is his resignation related to our party
that made them resign their membership?
And what were you doing while they resigned?
Most of those who resigned are your followers.
What did you do to deserve that?
What did you say?
Since they were going to leave our party one day or another,
I like them to leave as soon as possible.
I don't care about my colleague congressmen's resignation, however,
Mr. President's resignation worries me.
Me too.
Rumor has it that people say Mr . President has given up on poor party.
Who gave up on us?
What does that mean?
That doesn't even make any sense.
Let's have a seat.
Even though our Minwoo party is a ruling party,
people say Mr. President's real successor is Hyuksin Party.
Rumor has it that people have doubt about
who is the real successor of Mr. President,
between Taesan Kang and Hyerim Seo.
President Sungmin Baik has become a
president with the nomination of our party.
Minwoo Party has led this country for the past 5 years.
If you don't accept this truth,
I will fight against them as a candidate of our party.
Even if it's Mr. President himself.
Boss, what if I investigate the ruling
party's candidate for the next presidency?
People will say that this is a targeting investigation.
Even though we're sure of his wrongdoing, will people say that?
I don't know.
Are you really going to investigate him?
Don't you think we should investigate the case not following the people,
but the evidence?
Boss, let's go get the approval.
Did you call for me?
Please have a seat.
What is your political dream?
- My political dream? - How far do you want to go?
I want you to be the president.
When you become the president,
I think I will be able to have some position of power.
Maybe not prime minister, but a minister position.
Minister?
Congressman Oh, do you know what you should do before leaving for battle?
All of a sudden, what battle?
You should eat first before leaving for battle.
I don't think so.
The first thing you should do is get rid of the internal spy.
Why do you do this to me all of a sudden?
Are you denying that you know who Chulgyu Kim is?
Congressman Oh, did you think that document would be able to destroy me?
I didn't really mean to.
Congressman Kang, I made a mistake.
I didn't really mean to do harm to you.
That's only because Baeho Cho threatened
me with the evidence of my wrongdoing.
Congressman Oh, do you really believe that
Baeho Cho is the only one who has that document?
What?
You mean everyone knows about that document.
Congressman Kang, please forgive me just this once.
If you do, I will be loyal to you like I was to Congressman Cho.
Please forgive me.
Fine. I will forget about this.
Congressman Oh, I remember Baeho Cho told me something like this.
If a dog bit you once, it will bite you again.
Do you know where you send that kind of dog to?
Please think before you act.
Why does everyone persecute me like this?
I want to summon Taesan Kang. Please allow me.
I can't do it.
Why not?
I have already investigated Mr. President too.
There is no exception for the prosecutors' investigation.
I know.
However, I can't allow you to summon him.
Because he's the ruling party's candidate?
How much longer do we have to be dependant on the politicians' mercy?
That's not it.
Even though you summon him,
I am sure only we will be humiliated while not getting any result.
How can you be so sure?
Congressman Kang has called for a press conference.
People suspect me of receiving illegal money from Sanho Group.
I request Prosecutors' Office to investigate this case.
If I have anything to do with the illegal donation from Sanho Group,
I will resign from my political career.
Taesan Kang, he's not our average man.
Why did he declare that kind of thing?
Doesn't it mean that he's confident about his innocence?
Then that means that the document Chulgyu gave me was all wrong.
He wouldn't have done such a thing to me.
I will never able to understand politicians.
Hyerim...
Why do you look so sad?
Really?
I am okay.
You lie to me.
I can read it on your face.
11 people have come back home.
That's more important.
Doya, do you know what makes me sad?
If I didn't stay with them, they might have not been able to come back home.
I am so mad about this.
I really hate that this country can only do this much.
Hyerim...
I can't remove something from my head.
What should I do if I want my country to not give up on anyone else anymore?
You know better than me that you can't do politics by yourself.
I know.
However, politics doesn't mean something big.
The government should make their people cry.
That's the first thing politics have to do.
I will ask Mr. President to do this.
Please stop making your people cry.
Doya, I want to do this.
Do what?
Be the leader of Hyuksin Party.
Are you going to run for the next presidency?
I don't expect to win this race.
I have been so suffocated since I was congresswoman.
I wasn't able to say everything I had in my mind.
The presidential election is different
from Congressmen's or governor's election.
As soon as you decide on running for the presidential election,
everything will become different.
Why do you want to endure this rough road?
You hold me tight every time I wanted to run away.
I need your support this time too.
I trust you.
That's why I feel like I am going crazy.
Because I feel like you will be able to make it.
You will cross the border beyond my ability.
Doya.
Hyerim, can't you just stop here?
For me, and for us.
Can't you?
I am sorry.
My ideal country is not a rich country,
but a country where there are no innocent deaths.
I want my country to do their best to protect their people.
I want my country not to ignore the happiness of the people.
The country knows about the basics.
For this country, I will run for the next presidency.
And I will win.
Do you think you have chance to win?
Someone asked me why I would run for an impossible election.
They ask me if I do this for my popularity.
Even though this won't happen now, but I believe that someone who
share the same idea as me will become the next president.
I don't think my challenge will be in vain.
What is your ideal form of country?
We don't exist as a part of this country.
I need a country that exists for us.
And I think the death we can't even understand shouldn't happen again.
Thank you.
Regardless of my political conviction, I
support Hyerim Seo's passion and honesty.
I have a different political vision from Mr. President's.
I look forward to you to judge who will be our ideal leader.
Don't you know how your father died?
I won't do any kind of deal with you.
No matter what happens, you should win.
Please take my hand. Then, I will help you win.
I am talking about Baeho Cho's daughter.
Are you threatening me?
