Episode 19
Did you ask for me?
Yes. Is it possible to monitor the VIP tables from here?
Yes, I believe that's possible.
Is this the security department?
This is Oh Sang Mi from Guest Relations.
Please connect the video from the VIP Baccarat table to this room.
Alright.
Then, I'll put this one on the banker.
How can you play like that?
Can't you see I have the maximum bet out here?
My instincts tell me that I should bet just one chip on the banker.
What are you doing? Deal!
Player, Banker, Player's Banker's.
Player, natural 8.
Give me 4 sides, 4 sides, 4 sides.
4 sides... 4 sides, 4 sides.
4 sides.
I got it!
Yah...! 4 sides, yes. Wow!
Banker, natural 9. Banker wins.
If you'd like to play at another table, we can open another one for you.
No. Let's continue on.
Thank you. Thank you for your money.
Look, Na Bong Chul looks really worked up.
That bald guy playing next to him, did you plant him there?
No.
But he's doing so well. If I played with a guy like that, I'd go crazy too.
What are you doing? What are you up to?
I'm in the middle of a strategy to get his Joong Moon casino stocks.
That man playing in the VIP room, isn't he a Korean native?
Who the hell are you to accept a guest who's not permitted to enter?!
If the casino is closed down, will you take responsibility for it?
He is legally here. He came in with a Philippine passport.
It is not a fake passport. There are no problems relating to the law.
I am the head of Dae Jeong Casino.
You should have reported this to me before it happened, right?!
I received my permission from the Chairman.
I looked for you to tell you about this matter, but you were out of reach.
I apologize.
I assure you, that if this creates problems, you'll be dealt with accordingly.
Do you think it will be alright?
Don't worry.
Hey look, look, look! He's going ‘all in'.
What are you doing? Hurry up and deal!
Player, Banker. Player's, Banker's.
Let's see, let's see, let's see, let's see.
That makes 7! I'm so sorry, how can I make it better for you?
Player wins.
Go and get some more money.
Hyung-nim. That was all cash we had. And there's no place to get more at this hour.
Luck doesn't seem to be on your side today...
Shut up, you bastard!
I'll be right back so, keep the table open.
Yes, sir.
Hyung-nim!
Good work, miss!
I need to rest a little.
Here. A tip for you.
Thank you.
Welcome.
Have you seen it?
I did well, right?
You did well.
I see. Tell Jimmy he did a good job.
Yes?
Na Bong Chul is asking for you.
Where is he now?
He's in the casino lounge.
How does he look?
I don't know why, but he seems really upset.
Let's go.
Did you ask for me?
Let me borrow some money.
Excuse me?
Lend me some money.
Ah, yes, I see. But I don't have much on me right now.
Here you go. Three million won.
Are you joking with me?
The casino has operating cash, right?
From there, take out 10 big ones for me.
That... that will not be possible.
Don't you know who I am?
I'm major shareholder in Joong Moon Casino.
Even so, I still cannot use the casino's operating cash.
Is this the first time you are in business?
Where is Chairman Yoo? I want to talk directly to Chairman Yoo.
Even if Chairman Yoo permits it, I still cannot allow it.
It's against the policy to use company funds for personal use.
You bast...!
I'll see how long you keep your position of Casino Manager.
Let's go.
He's gone completely crazy.
When he comes to his senses, he'll only be an empty shell.
The VIP guest asked to see the person in charge.
Shall I contact Director Jang?
No.
I will be responsible for that guest.
Let's go.
Hyung-nim, please calm down.
In Macau at that time, you got too excited and that was the reason you got into trouble.
Just take it that luck's not with you today and maybe another time... next time...
You bastard. I'm going crazy right now, so how can I think of the next time?
Shut your mouth and stay quiet.
I've brought him.
You're the person in charge here?
That's me. What can I do for you?
Arrange for me to play some games on credit.
Do you know him?
Yes.
I'm sorry but I don't think that will be possible.
You know who I am and you still won't?
Sorry.
First thing in the morning, I'll pay it back.
Do it for me.
I'm sorry.
M... my Joong Moon Casino stocks... you said you were interested in them, right?
Will that do as collateral?
I will give you the answer after we discuss this.
So...
if we take the casino stocks as collateral, what will you do if he wins the money back?
Won't you be blamed for all this?
If luck is on his side, this might happen.
But he's gone beyond reasonable thinking and in his current condition, he'll never win the money back.
It is a gamble after all, but the odds are in my favor.
What would you like me to do?
Stall for just a bit longer then escort him to the VIP room.
Alright.
Let's go.
We've calculated your Joong Moon Casino shares at 30 billion won.
Are you playing games?
I won't accept anything less than 120 billion won.
That is what you think, but our calculations are different.
You don't have to accept the terms.
Hyung-nim.
I'll make the money back.
Alright!
Please take out 30 billion won from the safe and give it to our guest.
Alright, please follow me.
Wow, he's just like a monster.
He sees the weakness and mercilessly takes advantage of it.
I have no idea why you joined up with him,
but honestly, the more I learn the more I'm afraid of him.
Like father, like son.
Sorry.
I don't believe this.
How long will it take for you to hop home and change?
There is a strange guest here and I can't leave even for a minute.
I haven't slept a wink.
I understand. Hurry up and go back.
Thank you.
Work hard.
Lee Su Hyun?
Lee Su Hyun, right?
[Jeju District Office of Investigation. Chief Investigator Yoon Jae Myung.]
Se Ra is doing well?
Se Ra went overseas to study at Julliard.
I didn't realize she was so musically gifted.
It must all be due to your teaching.
What are you talking about...?
Just recently, I've been transferred to the Jeju District Office.
Call me, let's have dinner sometime.
There are two things...
that distinguish our golf course from the others here on Jeju.
Ours is at a lower altitude, so there is less fog than on the others.
And because the snow melts quickly, it's possible to play here whole year around.
The second thing is, as you can see, beautiful scenery.
I knew of the scale of your vision, but this here is really amazing.
Thank you for your favorable view of me.
We will discuss it quickly and give you our answer.
Of course, thank you.
How do you think they will decide?
I'm sure they've already decided to invest.
What's left is just how much they will invest.
You've worked hard on this.
Not at all.
There is something I'd like to know.
What is it?
It's about that Kim Jung Woo.
Everyone in Seoul seems to be concerned...
about you keeping him by your side, and giving him such great authority.
I know I'm not in the position to question you,
but I am worried about him handling crucial matters.
I want you to look into what Baek Sung Il is up to.
Do you mean Baek Sil Jang?
Why are you interested in him all of a sudden?
I think he's got something going on the side.
How could Baek Sil Jang do something like that?
Well, I think I'm right.
As the saying goes, “still waters run deep”.
I trusted him for far too long.
I'm training Kim Jung Woo to replace Baek Sil Jang.
I've already invested way too much money into Jang Min Ho.
I may need to have some of it back, so tell him to be prepared.
If my father turns everything over to me...
I will not continue the loan sharking business.
Come in.
You called for me?
Launder the money from this account...
and put it back into legitimate accounts.
To “clean” this much money, it'll take some time.
We don't have time. Do it as quickly as possible.
Yes, sir.
Oh... what brings you here?
I was just passing by and stopped in.
Have a seat.
When you came to Detective Hyun's wake,
and I saw Se Dol and Kang Rae beating you,
it broke my heart.
What happened to you boys?
I'm sorry.
Why should you apologize to me?
What is it?
Why are you giving this to me?
It's nothing compared to what Detective Hyun did for me all of my life.
You don't need to do this. Take it back.
To him, you were just like his son.
Does a father need to be compensated for his care for his son?
I don't need you to do things like this.
I just wish that you would do better for yourself.
To be honest,
the fact that you work for that Jang Min Ho,
I really don't like it.
That person to whom giving the entire world is not enough.
That person that is the reason I live today.
That person who gave me reasons to smile,
I miss that person.
Winner is the banker.
That person I draw with my hot tears.
That person I cannot erase in my heart.
No matter how much I wish, no matter how much I hope,
I can't help but to keep longing.
Deal.
I will throw it all away, throw all away.
Even my heart that remembers you.
I will forget it all, forget all.
That person that is painful to love.
That person I could not hold on to,
That person I should not love,
If I asked you to stay,
I know that you will stay with that one word.
How is it going?
He's been playing for 48 hours straight with no sleep.
Then it should be over soon.
As soon as we transfer the stocks, we will proceed with the takeover of Joong Moon Casino.
I figured you would do that.
Chairman Jang Min Ho is planning to put Joong Moon Casino in my hands.
I plan on suggesting to him, to keep all the current employees as they are.
It may be awkward for you, but please stay in your position.
We knew this was going to be a huge gamble. What's there to feel awkward about?
Don't worry, just make sure there are no mistakes.
Okay.
Call me when it's all over.
I will.
Hold on.
I have a favor to ask.
Even if I have to swallow the sun,
My love is not possible for anyone else...
Welcome! This is Jeju's most noted restaurant.
Please go in.
It doesn't look like much from the outside, but you'll be entirely satisfied with your meal.
I will forget, I will forget all for you. The one I cannot love...
Don't you see all these customers? Hurry, get it ready.
Go ahead and take your seats.
Let's talk for a second.
Aigoo. Aigoo, aigoo.
Aigoo, who are those people?
They're our customers from the casino and the hotel.
And from now on, if anyone wants to eat sushi, I'm going to bring them all here.
I'm not in the mood to work.
What are you talking about?
You need to work like crazy to be able to forget Detective Hyun.
When did I say I wanted to hurry up and forget him?
Anyway, thanks for thinking about me.
Actually... it wasn't my idea to bring them here.
My boss told me to bring them.
Why would he do that?
I'm not sure. I don't know the reason either.
How is it going?
He's still gambling.
How does it look?
It's obvious. How could he last in his unreasonable state?
I think it'll be over soon.
If it does, isn't it exactly as Kim Jung Woo planned?
If he really is put in charge of Joong Moon Casino,
what will happen to you?
You will be compared to him all the time,
won't that become unbearable?
No matter how high he flies,
he still works for me and my father.
He'll work hard for us and be discarded in the end.
I'm only going to think about how I can use him...
in the same way that my father does.
That's all I need to worry about.
He told him to launder the money and put it into legitimate accounts.
How much?
I'm not sure about how much...
but he said it'll take some time, so it must be a lot of money.
Shouldn't we tell Jung Woo?
He's got too much going on right now.
I'll wait for the right opportunity and tell him then.
Continue to watch Baek Sil Jang's activities.
It's me.
Okay, I'll be right there.
It looks like Na Bong Chul gave up.
Let's go.
Hyung-nim, why don't you go and get some rest?
You've been up for several nights already.
Go and get the Guest Relations lady.
Did you ask for me?
Go ask them for another 5 billion won.
I've already asked and they said it's not possible.
What do you think you guys are doing?
Bring me the Manager right away!
You bastards....
Aren't you being too much?
How much have I lost?
If you continue to treat me this way, I won't stand still.
You're not a big time gangster, you're nothing more than a hoodlum.
- What? - You bastards!
How dare you! Do you know who my hyung-nim is?!
Of course we know. That is why we are disappointed.
A boss needs to look like a boss.
He thinks he's special coming here to whine just because he's acquired a little wealth.
What, you guys need...
You guys...
just slapped the cheek of someone who was in the mood to cry.
You...
you let me in here knowing it was illegal for domestic guests.
Don't you know you'll have to close your establishment, if this becomes known?
There was nothing wrong with the Philippine passport you presented to us,
so we allowed you into our casino.
If you want, go ahead and call the police.
We can withstand whatever repercussions come our way,
but the forged passports you had might pose a problem for you.
I understand you're still on probation.
Isn't that so?
This gift we're giving should not be insulting to you.
So just take it and leave quietly.
It's not right for you to be humiliated in front of your underling, right?
You've done a good job.
Do you think there'll be problems?
There won't.
Okay. I'll take care of it, so don't worry.
Okay.
What did he say?
He got kicked out after betting ‘all in'.
Stupid.
This is the first time I've ever seen such an idiot.
How could such a bonehead be the head of a nationwide gang?
Whatever. You've worked hard.
It was nothing.
I had great fun and relieved some stress as well.
If they see you, it can cause trouble.
So, go somewhere quiet and rest for a few days.
Okay.
Maybe I'll go do a little fishing.
Oh, hyung-nim, over there.... that guy. Do you see him?
That guy!
- Stop the car. - Yes, sir.
It is you. You're mine now.
What... what? What?
What? What? What?
Bastard.
Son of a bitch.
How dare you put your hands on me.
You are really...
Get that bastard.
Get him.
Hey, stop right there!
Stop right there!
Get that bastard.
Those bothersome...
You will be relieved of your position as Manager immediately, so be ready.
I'd like to have a word with you.
It's too late for you to beg and grovel.
If you would have just lent me the money, you wouldn't be in this humiliating position right now.
- Shut up. - What?
Check-out and get lost immediately.
This insolent...
The only reason I treated a thug like you with the respect,
was because you were a major shareholder.
But now you have nothing to do with Joong Moon Casino.
So hurry up and check out of the room...
and don't ever let me see your face again.
Hyung-nim, are you alright?
Have the boys from Seoul come down right away.
Tell them to hurry.
Yes, sir.
What happened?
We've finished buying up all the stocks.
I didn't think it would be an easy task
but you handled it better than I expected.
Good job.
But it was a great risk he took.
It ended fine, but if something had happened, and there was a problem,
Dae Jeong Casino could have been shut down.
We knew it was a gamble from the beginning.
If you can't take risks, you lose before you ever begin.
I feel Kim Jung Woo's decision was the right one.
Contact Chairman Yoo Kwang Soo and set up a meeting.
We need to let him know we will be taking over Joong Moon Casino.
Yes, sir.
By now,
Chairman Yoo may have figured out my plan.
He might do something foolish,
so persuade him nicely.
I understand.
For the work you did,
I want to give you a present.
Of all the shares we bought,
the ones from that gangster...
those are yours.
Did you think that might happen?
No.
Why is he treating you like this?
He says he wants you to run Joong Moon Casino, and now he gives those shares to you.
It's just like he knows you're his son.
He treats you this well.
Do you still have the thoughts about revenge?
I think in the near future, he'll ask me to do something that will be very difficult for me.
I think he's just putting down a deposit for that.
Regardless, it was still satisfying.
When he said those shares were yours,
did you see Jang Tae Hyuk and Manager Baek faces turned green?
Do you think it's strange for me to give him those shares?
No.
I know it's not a gift...
but shackles you're putting on him to keep him here.
Very good!
But, you never once did that with Baek Sil Jang.
I wondered if that disappointed him.
He doesn't need me to give anything to him. He takes it himself.
What do you mean?
I want you to keep your distance from Baek Sung Il
and don't ever tell him anything close to your heart.
Have you got away just now?
Uh huh.
Because of that crazy guest, I didn't get any sleep.
I don't know how I got mixed up in that.
The dark circles come all the way down to my chin, huh?
What happened with that guest?
He got his pockets emptied and kicked out.
After a while, I started to feel sorry for him.
But you know, when I saw Jung Woo in action, I was completely taken by surprise.
But it's Tae Hyuk that's in charge of the casino.
What did Jung Woo do?
Tae Hyuk is the head but last night...
I don't know. Anyway, last night
with tens of billions of won coming and going, he made the decisions...
without batting an eyelid.
It was too much.
I think the Chairman gave Jung Woo the authority.
Tae Hyuk seemed to have no power in that situation.
Jung Woo has been doing really well in the company lately.
Under these circumstance, even Tae Hyuk's position might be in jeopardy.
I can see now why you didn't latch on to Tae Hyuk...
and fell for Jung Woo.
I thought you said you were tired. Hurry home and get some rest.
What about you?
There's someone I need to see.
Oh, sorry. I'm really late, aren't I?
No. You're very busy and I feel bad that I might add to your load by asking to see you.
No, not at all.
I'm still so new around here.
Had you not called asking to see me,
I would have spent the evening in an empty house alone.
I was very glad you called.
Your wife didn't move down here with you?
She went with Se Ra to New York to take care of her.
Oh, I see.
Didn't you stop Se Ra's lessons saying you were going abroad to study?
Yes. After my course ended,
I worked in Las Vegas with a show called Cirque du Soleil.
And I also teach at the University of Jeju.
Ah, I see.
Someone like you will never have a reason to see me professionally.
So let's keep in touch with each other...
just to share some meals.
One thing I appreciate about being transferred here,
is that there are all sorts of things I like.
I know a few places that have delicious food,
so I will introduce you to them.
But...
if I asked you to help me with something, would you help?
Of course. What is it?
Come in.
My name is Son Jae Gook.
Have a seat.
I hope you weren't busy, when I called you to meet me.
No, I wasn't.
The reason that I asked to see you was...
you've been investigating Dae Jeong Group, haven't you?
Yes.
Can I have a look at those files?
That is... well...
What?
May I be frank with you?
Go ahead.
I was forced out of my position because of that.
I don't wish to be hurt by it any more.
I see.
I have a pretty good idea how Dae Jeong Group's Jang Min Ho operates.
I can assure you...
that this investigation will not harm you in any way.
Lee Su Hyun speaking.
This is Yoon Jae Myung.
Yes, Investigator.
Jang Min Ho from Dae Jeong Group,
his power reaches far so it won't be an easy task...
and there are a few questionable items, so I can understand your suspicions.
I will take it.
Thank you very much.
I will need to see you and verify a few things.
Do you have time?
I'll be there right away.
Thank you.
Yes, right.
And retrieve all the money that's spread out in Myung Dong.
Just do as you're told! Why are you talking so much?!
I'm the one that should worry about the loss. What's it to you?
Right! Do it quickly!
Such a useless bunch...
What's made you so upset?
I don't have anyone that I can work with.
You have no one to blame but yourself, as you've never groomed anyone to work for you.
I know.
That is why I'm full of regret.
Even if I have to beg Chairman Jang Min Ho,
I want to bring Baek Sung Il.
If I had someone like him, I could trust him to secure your future.
What do you think?
Do as you like.
I don't have any ideas about that.
Okay. I'll get to it right away.
If I asked you to come work for me, would you?
When I clean things up and turn everything over to Jung Hae,
I will need someone I can trust.
As you know very well,
I don't have anyone like that.
If you ask me to come, I will.
Then I have one request.
I don't wish to have any conflicts with Chairman Jang Min Ho because of you.
If I get on his wrong side,
you know as well as I do, what will happen.
Please settle the relationship with Jang Min Ho properly.
Yes?
Come in here.
Yes, sir.
Sit down.
Han Sun Young,
listen to me carefully.
I know that you've been in my safe.
And that you gave the documents that were in the safe to Kim Jung Woo.
The reason I knew and didn't do anything...
was because it was bait I set for Kim Jung Woo.
Oppa.
What's wrong?
I'm sorry, oppa.
What happened?
Baek Sil Jang knows everything.
Even my taking the emergency fund documents.
You had the documents in your hands. Why didn't you take any action?
You could have gotten rid of me with it.
I didn't think it was the right time.
You're a very lucky guy.
Those are bogus documents I made up knowing they would end up in your hands.
I'm telling you all this because I want to finish this quietly.
I won't say anything about this, but you'll have to keep quiet about me.
This is a negotiation as well as a warning.
I don't want any fuss regarding me, ever.
But if you ever provoke me again,
that will be the end for you.
That nut is a headache to the end.
Na Bong Chul.
He said he wants to re-negotiate the terms of his shares.
It's over already. Why do we need to discuss it again?
That is why it's such a headache.
I'm afraid you'll have to meet him.
Jackson.
I thought you said you were going to Seoul. What happened?
I did go to the airport but had to come back.
Why?
Na Bong Chul must have called all his boys from Seoul.
The airport is almost packed full of them.
Oh my God. I thought I was going to die.
Do you think he's up to something?
Why would he want to meet at a place like this?
Na Bong Chul.
I knew he'd do something like this.
Didn't you say yourself...
that you've been around?
Let me see your skills.
What do you hope to gain by this?
I want something...
that you will say personally.
Living the life of a gangster for over 20 years, there's something I've learned.
Punishment has no reward.
Kids, teach them a lesson.
Yes, hyung-nim.
Hyung-nim.
That person to whom giving the entire world is not enough.
That person that is the reason I live today.
That person who gave me reason to smile,
I miss that person.
That person I draw with my hot tears.
Just go home.
That person I cannot erase in my heart.
No matter how much I wish...
Get up. How embarrassing to be knocked down by a kid.
I can't help but to keep longing.
I will throw it all away, throw all away.
Even my heart that remembers you.
I will forget it all...
Na Bong Chul.
Answer when you're spoken to, you loser.
Yes.
Do you know what a mercenary is?
A mercenarily gets paid for killing people.
My friends right here are mercenaries that could kill you for just $1 per head.
I'm telling you it wasn't even a fight.
Do you understand what I mean?
Yes.
This is my final warning.
Don't ever come back to Jeju.
Don't come here even for your own honeymoon.
If your children, in your old age, want to send you on a seniors trip to Jeju, you can come then.
Do you understand?
Why aren't you answering?!
Yes, sir!
Dismissed.
Allow me to pour you a drink.
Thank you, for helping us tonight.
I'm here because the boss told me to...
but I still don't understand why I have to sit here.
There is nothing we want to do with Jung Woo.
I have joined up with Jung Woo again.
Together with Jung Woo,
we plan to fulfill our dream of creating a place like Las Vegas right here in Jeju...
just like Bugsy Malone made there.
Your shares and Mi Ran's together equal 42%.
I've acquired the rest of the shares.
I have already turned over to you a permit to operate Dae Jeong Casino.
So what is the reason for you wanting Joong Moon Casino?
Just where does your greed end?
The average casino that is in your hands,
the moment it becomes mine, it will go through an amazing transformation.
I'm just satisfied with the controlling rights and will not touch Mi Ran's and your shares,
so don't worry too much.
When you get the controlling shares, will you change the staff?
No, I will leave all that as it is.
But the person next to me, will be in charge of the operations.
Mi Ran, you are really smart.
The aviation business you just started,
is a wonderful business model.
From now on, the Dae Jeong Group will make use of the services you provide.
Why don't you a step back now, hyung-nim?
Your life will be much easier holding onto me.
Why are you still so greedy?
Before you start as Manager, prepare a business plan for the Casino and submit it to me.
Yes, sir.
You're Dae Jeong Group's Chairman Jang Min Ho, aren't you?
I am. So?
I'm Yoon Jae Myung, Chief Investigator from Jeju District Office.
Very soon you will be called in to make a sworn deposition.
You will be notified shortly.
