Powerful Opponents
Episode 13
Chief...!
Cha Young Jin is here.
- What is it? - You really don't know?!
Do you have to see it clearly with your own eyes?!
Was it Reporter Ko who leaked this information
or someone in the bodyguard division who leaked it?
There will be an investigation into the truth today.
If by any chance, there is someone leaking information from our division,
then prepare your resignation letter and take off your uniform.
Understand?!
I heard that the two of you had dinner alone.
Yes, that's how it was.
Because I felt Young Jin has worked too hard,
I wanted to boost her morale, that's why I treated her to meal.
Is that right, Agent Cha?
Yes, that's right.
Did the two of you discuss the private life of the person being protected?
I'm sorry...
It is all my fault.
I only wanted to boost her morale, that's why I treated her to meal.
But it seems like Cha Young Jin
has accumulated a lot of anger while protecting Kang Su Ho during this time.
After having one drink,
she revealed that Yoo Gwan Pil's daughter is actually Kang Su Ho's child.
Who was it?
Was it Agent Cha Young Jin?
Yes. That's right.
- Sunbae-nim! - But...
It didn't look like it was intentional.
It's just at the time,
the rule about not discussing about the person we are protecting, she forgot about it.
Even though I tried my best to prevent it,
she had no intentions of stopping the discussion.
Eventually, I got up first and left.
Agent Cha Young Jin.
Are those words the truth?
No.
I never said those things.
The one to say that we couldn't discuss anything about the person we are protecting was me.
The first one to get up was also me.
The statements from both of you are contradicting.
Then that's to say, between the two of you, one of you is lying.
Right?
As her superior, I have responsibility.
Please make appropriate actions for her mistake.
I am willing to take all responsibility.
Investigation with the newspaper agency that published the news
and about Reporter Ko sending harassment letters, the investigation is not over yet.
When that side has the results,
we'll notify you two how we'll be handling this.
During this time, Agent Nam Do Woo can return to work in the office.
Cha Young Jin, first hand over your handheld transceiver.
Stay here and wait for orders.
Episode 13 People, People In Their Insides
Sunbae-nim!
What are you doing?!
What?
The one who brought up the topic of Kang Su Ho...
... wasn't me, it was you, Sunbae-nim.
When did I?
Do you have proof?
What?
Do you have proof that it was me who brought up the topic of Kang Su Ho?
Chief didn't say anything to me.
You also didn't report anything to me.
So...
How would I know anything to discuss about Kang Su Ho?
Besides, it was in private.
Even though I'm feeling bad, driving you to the ditch
but if you must pull my leg, that's not right, Cha Young Jin.
Sunbae-nim.
If you are truly innocent,
then go find Yoo Gwan Pil or Kang Su Ho to help you.
They have someone's backing.
This is understandable.
You are a woman, you just have to shed a drop of tear,
it can be resolved right away.
Sunbae-nim, have you become shameless to this extent?
It's always been 'survival of the fittest'.
Do you still not know the rules of survival?
What did you say?
What do you mean? What happened to Cha Young Jin?
I just heard from the office when I called.
The news in today's paper the person involved from the bodyguard division,
they said it's Young Jin.
They're investigating the truth now.
Under the circumstances now, it looks like Young Jin is the only one suspended awaiting orders.
What's going on?
I want to hear it from you.
It's a fabricated story people made up, right?
Or...
It's the truth.
Everything is the truth, Father.
Then...
Gwan Pil's... that girl...
Yes, that's right.
I'm sorry, Father.
I didn't tell you earlier, telling you this way...
This way...
Again, I have become your worthless son.
Honey.
It would have been better if you had told me earlier.
Then I could have used all means to stop this expose.
What a disgrace it is?
Regarding this matter, just say you don't know anything.
From here on, I'll take care of it as I see fit.
Don't take care of it as you see fit.
This is my problem, my business.
How is this your business, your problem?
This is the Presidential family's problem.
It is a scandal that can't happen.
She was a woman I truly loved.
How can you call it a scandal?
Your problem is all your true loves are cheap.
How come every girl you are attracted to
is either a poor high school student without parents
or a daughter of a third-rate dancer?
Why is your taste in women so low, it doesn't change one bit.
Do you lack that much confidence in women?
If it isn't a woman lacking in qualifications, you can't be in love?
Speaking of lacking on qualifications, you and I are no better.
What?
I don't have a job.
I'm living off my parents like a pest.
If I was not the President's son, I'm a worthless person.
Yu Min, if you weren't a tycoon's daughter,
nobody would look at you twice, a woman who sickens people.
Kang Su Ho!
To be honest, you and I,
other than having good fathers, what else do we have?
We do whatever we want, throw tantrums, are selfish and vulgar.
Aren't we the unworthy and cheap ones?
Right.
Just like the way you are throwing a tantrum right now.
Compared to you, pretending to be honourable and have good taste everyday,
you seem more of a person this way.
Kang Su Ho... you...!
Do you know what the woman you like so much did?
Who do you think is the person from the bodyguard division that is mentioned in the newspaper?
Right, it's Cha Young Jin.
That extraordinary woman that you like
carelessly said a few words, that's why this news is out.
Do you know?
What are you doing?
Where is Cha Young Jin?
Where is she? I can't even get through her cell phone.
She's isolated awaiting orders right now.
What?
It's with great pity, Cha Young Jin has violated
a rule that absolutely can't be violated.
After the investigation is over, she might be ordered to resign.
Ordered to resign?
To be clearer, she'll be kicked out of the Blue House.
Do you know how Cha Young Jin hasn't gotten to this position?
With what kind of mindset,
how much hard work she devoted to get to where she is today, do you know?
You don't know anything about that woman, yet you say you are sincere?
What kind of sincerity is that?
I'm sorry something like this happened.
Don't apologize.
Because I know...
Because I know it isn't Cha Young Jin's fault.
You don't need to apologize.
Don't be like this, you can't be like this.
Don't worry, Cha Young Jin.
I won't let you get kicked out like this.
I will prevent everything.
Don't worry.
You're here.
Where's Cha Young Jin? Is she inside?
Yes.
She's repenting deeply inside right now.
Then let's go inside.
What are you doing? Go inside.
Yes.
We must go in... we must go in...
Oh... Su Ho, why are you here?
I also want to investigate the truth.
The 40 days Cha Young Jin has protected me,
no matter what extreme things I did,
she would not utter a word and accept it all.
Even when I made her not able to sleep for nearly one week...
she didn't say one bitter word or express her dissatisfaction.
This kind of person,
carelessly discussing about me in private, it's hard to believe.
So I... want to investigate the truth on behalf of Cha Young Jin.
Things that happen in the bodyguard division will be dealt with by the bodyguard division.
It doesn't seem to be something you should trouble yourself with.
This is my problem.
It was caused by me.
So...
Please give me one day.
Then...
I will definitely bring proof that it wasn't Cha Young Jin's actions.
That news, it's a bait.
Some veteran reporters who smelled exclusive news
throw baits like this way with their juniors' name.
Making it public then seeing their reactions to see what is true and what is false.
Who was it?
The veteran reporter behind this.
At this time, the best thing to do is nothing.
If you continue to pursue it, it would have a negative impact instead.
If things don't go well, my colleague will get implicated.
I must personally meet that reporter and find out who provided that information.
By any chance, is it that female bodyguard?
The colleague who will be implicated.
She once looked for me livid with rage.
I don't care whether it is Kang Su Ho or Yoo Gwan Pil,
let them be at peace.
Stop harassing them.
If by any chance,
a third party continues to make trouble out of nothing,
at that time, I swear by my name,
I won't let you get away with it.
At that time, that female bodyguard had the same facial expression as you.
It's sincerity, right?
Suddenly, I'm very curious about the relationship between the two of you.
Are you really only colleagues with that woman?
Or... is it something more?
Which is it?
If I answer you which it is, would you tell me who the veteran reporter is?
It's me.
Can we meet right now?
I can't right now.
I have something to do.
If it is because of Cha Young Jin, then let's do it together.
Where are you? I'll go over right now.
Did you find out anything?
I found the reporter who wrote the news.
Then, we're going to see that reporter?
I can go by myself. You don't need to go.
No, let's go together.
Appearing in front of the reporter like this will only make things worse.
You shouldn't go.
Anyway, what those people want is news.
Just let them use me as much as they like, it's okay.
Su Ho.
I don't care anyway.
If people find out what happened eight years ago,
I won't suffer again from it.
It also won't be because of this that my father won't be President anymore.
Even though, everyone will have a headache,
but Cha Young Jin,
to that woman, it's about her future.
She can't be kicked out of the bodyguard division.
I want to stop it,
I don't care what method I use.
I am from the Blue House's bodyguard division, Yoo Gwan Pil.
Oh yes.
Can you come with me?
This might be good, I already have previous engagement.
Then it can't be helped.
Wait a minute.
What is it about? Can you tell me first?
You can't voice record or take pictures also.
You are only allowed ten minutes.
I understand.
Only ten minutes.
During this time, you can ask anything you want to know.
I'll answer you no matter what it is.
But there is one condition.
Please tell me.
Please tell me which person from the bodyguard division provided that news.
That's not easy.
Reporters absolutely cannot reveal the source of their news.
That is a principle.
Because of that news, an innocent bodyguard will have to take off her uniform.
I'm sorry, but I still can't reveal the person who provided the information.
Then the interview is also canceled.
Let's go.
Really?
Okay, then that can't be helped.
Please return to the car.
Even asking from a humanistic perspective, you still can't?
This is about a bodyguard's life.
There's no need to plead with this kind of person.
He simply isn't a person that understands sincerity.
The bodyguard's words are right.
To be shaken by humaneness easily, it's hard to survive in this job.
I'm leaving.
It's my child, that's right.
It wasn't that long ago that I knew about this child.
- Su Ho. - I...
have not told that child that I am her father.
It's not because I'm afraid of being scolded by people
or because my father is the President.
It's not the reason why I dare not say it, that I'm hiding it.
It's because I'm afraid it will be psychologically traumatic for her.
Because by that child's side, there is already a great father.
But for a person like me to appear suddenly, saying I am her father...
I'm afraid of hurting her.
So...
Even appearing in front of the child, I would watch myself and be afraid.
I think Reporter Yoon also knows.
everyone knows me as a troublemaker, am foolish and obnoxious.
But,
that child is different.
With the blessing of a good father, she has grown up beautiful and kind,
She's truly very good.
She makes me feel ashamed appearing in front of her.
She's a very outstanding child.
What I hope now is not letting that child suffer because of me.
That's the only thing.
All I can say is these.
Whether or not to write the story, that's up to you, Reporter Yoon.
Whether or not you help that innocent bodyguard,
that's also up to Reporter Yoon.
Yes, I am the Presidential bodyguard division's Pyo Chul Ho.
Yes, Director.
Yes.
I understand.
Then that can't be helped.
Yes.
Resignation Letter
It still ended like this after all.
I even lied to Cha Young Jin, telling her not to worry.
It looks like that I really can't do anything.
I'm really a useless person.
You did your best.
Even though you do your best every time, the problem is it's unhelpful work.
That's why Eun Young liked you.
After she left you, she always talked about you...
as if the memories with you were her whole life.
Like a broken player that keeps playing over and over again.
At that time,
leaving like that, thinking it was the best interests for you and Eun Young.
Thinking back now,
would it be better at the time to telling you the whole truth.
No matter what decision you make, that's your problem.
What would that do? Today, I am still like an idiot, am I not?
Not even bringing income home.
I let that reporter off lightly
because I keep making these foolish choices.
Noona and Gwan Pil hyung,
that's why you guys over-protected me.
Right?
Time that had stopped is beginning to tick-tock tick-tock again.
But I still can't,
for anyone, do something good.
I'm leaving, Chief.
During this time, you took care of me in every possible way.
Yet I am leaving in this manner. I'm really…
Too ashamed to face you.
I wasn't able to protect you. I'm sorry.
Well then, goodbye!
Chief, you haven't knocked off yet?
I have been taking care of the decision for Cha Young Jin with the officers above and below.
Is that right?
In the end, was she being ordered to quit?
Let me ask you for the last time.
Was it really Cha Young Jin who has discussed the protectee's personal matter?
Why are you asking me that again?
Could it be that you, Chief, are suspecting me?
Don't talk nonsense.
Just answer me whether it is really Cha Young Jin who said it.
Chief.
Although Cha Young Jin and Yoo Gwan Pil are regarded as your children,
I should be regarded as your child too.
Why is it that you dislike only me?
Although I knew from the start that you are not on my side,
But this really made me bitterly disappointed.
I have just developed some feelings for this place, yet now I have to say good bye to it.
Goodbye then, 'Chung Jeung Gwan'*. (*name of the building where the bodyguards work)
Why are you here?
Isn't your sick leave till tomorrow?
Just in time.
Both of you should have a farewell party for me.
Can you?
Hey! What are you doing? Pick the next song!
One shot!
That's great!
What's wrong? One shot!
One shot, please.
You haven't eaten anything. Eat a little before you continue drinking.
Oh right. Eat.
Why aren't you eating? Don't you like to come to this sort of place?
Ah, that's right! I'm no longer a bodyguard.
You are not my protectee anymore either.
That's right, that's right.
Hey!
We really don't have to speak formally to each other now.
Right, Kang Su Ho?
Why? Are you upset?
You were the one who said we were of the same age thus no need to speak formally.
True.
I was the one who said not to speak formally first.
Really?
Yeah! I can now speak on equal terms with the President's son.
I'm really happy!
I'm a free woman now!
Because of that, one shot!
Hey!
Byung Wook!
What is this? You left me all alone, while you guys…
Come, come. Our Leak Boy!
Hey, but how did you know we are here?
Gwan Pil sent me a text message.
He said to spend tonight with our Cha Young Jin.
Really?
I'm so touched, Yoo Gwan Pil!
You are my partner!
Oh! Park Sunbae, Young Sunbae.
Over here! Over here!
Have you started already?
Park Sunbae and Young Sunbae-nim, are you here to participate too?
Of course. How can we miss such an event?
Ahjumma, give me more glasses over here please!
Here, receive a drink from me, Cha Young Jin.
Yes. Thank you.
Ah, what a full glass, filled with warm feelings.
Young Jin, eat something. Eat! Eat!
Receive a drink from me too.
Yes. Thank you.
Ah! Young Jin is going to be drunk today. Drunk!
Hey, Young Jin!
- You are all here. - So happy.
Sit!
Ahjumma, give me a few more glasses and soju here please!
Ah! Is this soju or water?
Get well soon, okay?
Here, receive a drink from me.
My gosh, really.
What to do? What should we do with Mr. Cha's back?
This... it's just that way.
That way.
Mrs. Oh.
I'm really sorry.
Compared to when I was Black Butterfly,
How should I put it…
My weight has gone up a little bit.
I didn't thought of that beforehand, and now it has become the cause of this problem.
It's not that.
You gave me a chance to be able to dance with the Black Butterfly,
an opportunity to dance, didn't you?
I feel the same way.
To be able to dance the waltz with Mr. Cha,
It will probably remain in my heart for the rest of my life.
But, how did the Black Butterfly become Mrs. Oh?
Also, when you were the Black Butterfly, didn't you used to speak Seoul accent.
But why is it that you speak Jeolla dialect now?
Don't even think of trying to pry a woman's secret.
I don't want to talk about it.
Have some of this beef bone soup, it would nourish your back, Mr. Cha.
For bone nourishment, this beef bone soup is the best.
Thank you.
Black Butterfly.
No. Mrs. Oh.
I'm home!
Dad!
Grandpa! Young Gu!
Come out here for a minute.
My goodness! Young Jin!
What are all these?
Chicken Feet! Crispy Bones! Also omelet!
Today, while I was happily drinking,
The food there was really delicious.
I suddenly thought of Grandpa, Dad and you, Young Gu.
So I bought some back.
Hurry and try some, Grandpa. Young Gu.
Ahjumma, you are here too. Please come and eat.
Can I? I will join in too.
Dad, what are you doing? Come and eat please.
Young Jin.
Yes?
Has something happened to you?
Why acting out of the ordinary all of a sudden?
Tell me about it.
Has something happened?
What can it be? There's nothing.
Look at Dad.
Tell me.
What has happened?
Actually...
Today...
I got fired from the bodyguard division.
What?
Young Jin.
So...
Today...
I have turned in my resignation letter before coming home.
I'm sorry, Dad.
I had really wanted to do well.
Really wanted to do great.
But...
This… Oh my god!
Our Young Jin has gone through so much hardship to get that job.
What are you saying exactly?
It's okay, Young Jin.
Cry. Don't hold it in.
Cry if you want to.
Child.
Noona.
It's okay.
Right. It's okay. It's okay.
It's okay, Noona.
Did you sleep well?
Yes.
- Ggot Nim sleep well too? - Yes.
I was just going to wash my face and brush my teeth.
Dad, are you going to work?
Yes.
Actually, today is my last day of leave. But something suddenly came up.
What to do? I can't send you to school today.
Don't worry about it. I can go by myself.
I have made some toasts.
Just put on some jam before you eat it. The milk and fruit juice...
are in the fridge, just take it out to drink.
[Reporter Yoon]
Yes. This is Kang Su Ho.
Yoo Gwan Pil.
What's going on? Aren't you supposed to be on leave till today?
Due to an urgent matter that suddenly cropped up,
Therefore, I start work today instead.
Urgent matter?
Yes.
Right now, Chief Pyo and Director are both waiting for you right now.
Please come with me.
I heard Agent Yoo Gwan Pil has something to say.
Yes, Director.
Say it. What is it?
Do you really not know about Kang Su Ho having a daughter?
I would like to ask that to Nam Do Woo Sunbae one more time.
Nam Do Woo, give your answer.
Do you really not know about Kang Su Ho having a daughter?
Answer, Agent Nam Do Woo.
No, I don't.
Did you hear that? He said he didn't know.
Then now onwards, I would like to present the evidence of that lie.
This is from the surveillance CCTV at the corridor in front of the Kendo training room.
At that time, I was having a conversation with Kang Su Ho in the Kendo training room.
When I stepped out after the conversation,
Nam Do Woo Sunbae was standing right in front of me.
We just met at the door, that's all.
If you had to accuse me of eavesdropping your conversation,
Isn't that a little too farfetched, Agent Yoo Gwan Pil?
If you didn't eavesdrop, then it had to be one of the two.
Either you open the door and go in, or
You continue walking forward past the door.
But Nam Sunbae, stood outside the door for more than ten minutes.
If you hadn't heard anything,
Yet you had stood outside the door for more than ten minutes,
There is no other explanation for it.
So as I deduce,
from the fact that you lied about this,
You had pushed all blame on Agent Cha Young Jin.
I am just expressing my objection towards the decision
for a resignation made by the investigation committee.
Fine. Even if I overheard your conversation,
Even if I had concealed the truth,
But whether or not I had discussed Kang Su Ho's personal matter in private,
How are you going to prove that?
Do you have any way to prove that?
That proof is with me.
I have said before, to give me a day's time, Director.
Here, I have brought the proof that it wasn't Cha Young Jin.
I heard that Yoo Gwan Pil's kid is actually Kang Su Ho's daughter.
Yoo Gwan Pil took sick leave, and didn't even show his face.
Chief Pyo and you have been trying to hide the fact.
All that is due to this matter, isn't it?
Sunbae-nim,
Have you forgotten about the rule that any discussion in private regarding our protectee is not allowed?
What happened?
He was touched by my sincerity.
To be honest, I didn't expect you would tell me all that.
Then why didn't you publish it?
I, too, have a daughter who just joined the elementary school.
No matter what, to report a child's secret, I don't feel at ease at all.
No one furnished me with that information.
I just recorded what I overheard, and made a guess.
I hope the innocent party won't get accuse.
Thank you, Reporter Yoon.
Don't mention it.
Because what that bodyguard said that day is true.
We place more importance on reporting the facts rather than being ruled by emotions.
Don't trust us too much.
Nam Sunbae, what are you doing?
Please don't be like this.
- Stop please! - Nam Sunbae!
Do you think you have won?
Right?
What a joke!
I, Nam Do Woo!
I won't fall down so easily.
You and Cha Young Jin,
Even Kang Su Ho, you three,
You would definitely regret it one day!
I will make sure of that, bastards!
Today, this is for our Young Jin's special day.
Rice and soup are made by Dad.
I helped him.
I went groceries shopping.
Come. Hurry. Eat more, Young Jin.
I'm a daughter who got fired from her job,
what's so good about that? It's quite tiring for you to have made all these.
Who cares if you were fired from your job,
No matter what happened, you are still my cute and good daughter.
There is nothing tiring about this.
That's right, that's right.
Come, hurry and eat Young Jin.
Eat, the soup is getting cold.
Father, please eat too.
Let's all eat.
If this goes on, breakfast would turn into lunch.
The food I made taste good too.
Is something the matter?
It seemed that the matter hasn't been resolved yet.
Agent Yoo Gwan Pill looked me up.
It's due to your matter.
I have decided to let go of Kang Su Ho's past.
Yes.
Before I put things in order, I would like to show you something for the last time.
Please take a look.
Those are taken at the hotel that night.
Usually, I would bring along two memory card with me.
Just in case, as a backup.
I would prepare an extra one.
Agent Yoo Gwan Pil had confiscated one of them.
The remaining one, I had kept it in my possession.
This way, the evidence from that night is all gone now.
Right?
Why are you giving this to me?
Just treat it as a present
for Agent Yoo Gwan Pil who has been silently protecting my friend and her daughter.
Actually, in the beginning,
I thought Agent Yoo Gwan Pil did that because he wanted to protect Kang Su Ho.
But now that I think about it,
Maybe, it is to protect another person.
I have that kind of thought.
Well then, I'll leave first.
Then,
You won't report about Kang Su Ho and Ggot Nim in the future?
Didn't you say you won't let me off if I do?
I'm giving up because I'm scared.
Now, I'm rather curious about how your friendship will progress.
Well then, I'll take my leave.
Can we let them go on like this?
Let's come forward and do something.
I'm afraid to hurt the children,
But yet I feel it's not right for us to let them be and not do anything.
I want to have a talk with Gwan Pil, and meet that child.
He will probably reject you flat.
I have also spoken to him before.
He said absolutely not, and he was very resolute in his position.
That child is really…
Very pretty, very good.
Paper!
Rock, paper, scissors!
Little Bean, come here!
You!
Where have you been?
Oh!
It's just that,
I was a little bored, so I went around for a bit.
It can't be that you have started looking for a job so soon, can it?
But, what is the matter?
Su Ho has dance lesson today, so I came with him.
I also have something to give you.
What is this?
This is Chief Pyo's order, to return this to you.
He said to rest well at home this week.
You are to return and report to the team next week onwards.
Why?
How… did that happen?
We have clarified that you weren't the one.
Nam Do Woo Sunbae... He was fired today.
Didn't you want to become Korea's top female bodyguard?
Didn't you say you want to work me really hard under you?
Who knows, you might really be able to achieve that position.
Really?
Thank you, Yoo Gwan Pil.
You are crying again.
Why have you become a crybaby all of a sudden today?
That's true.
Maybe it isn't Kang Su Ho, but another person that he wants to protect.
- That… - That...
You go first.
Actually...
It has been on my mind all day today.
I'm really very curious.
What is it?
What kind of person am I to you?
What do I mean to you?
Huh?
Daddy!
Ggot Nim.
Ggot Nim is here too.
Hello, Ahjumma.
Dad, Uncle Su Ho said he wanted to go to the beach.
The beach.
The beach?
Right, the beach.
With Ggot Nim, the four of us.
I want to go, Dad.
I haven't been to the beach before.
Dad!
What do you think? Don't you think that would be fun?
From now onwards, Hyung and I won't have any regrets anymore.
We will run till we have no regrets.
Ahjumma, it's written all over your face.
Whether you are happy or not, or what you are thinking.
Ggot Nim is your daughter.
She is your real daughter whom you had so painstakingly raised.
Have you heard about Nam Do Woo Sunbae?
I heard he had become a good-for-nothing.
It's not that I didn't want to tell you intentionally.
I kept thinking it's something I have to tell you eventually.
If you go there, you will be happier.
