This is absurd.
How can they sympathize with the crook
who tried to kill Dan-ah and Gang-suk?
Does this make any sense to you?
I think the articles are misleading.
This is a witch hunt.
The Prince of Myungseong Falls Victim to a Shrewd Hunter?
I'll ask the media to print a retraction.
But it seems like we've fallen out of favor with the media.
We can't just sit around though.
THE LOAN SHARK'S SON AND THE SUICIDE OF KIM SUN-TAE.
The police will conduct an investigation.
The media won't let this go.
Director. I'll go to the interrogation.
Why would you?
I'm the one who operated the business in Macau.
The papers name me.
Our dirty hands aren't enough to cover the sky.
But I can't bear to see you humiliated.
Humilated?
Jin-woo.
Yes.
Someone ended up losing his life because of me.
But after what Kim Sun-Tae did to you...
A person is dead.
I'm alive,
and the world is asking about my involvement in his death.
I'll answer them myself. So stay out of this.
We can't do anything about the reservations being canceled.
Let's do our best to serve the guests we have now.
Please encourage the employees.
Thank you.
Won't the shareholders respond to dropping share values?
Yes.
Mr. Jeon Sang-gil is on line two.
This is Ha Soo-young.
Yes.
Yes, the situation doesn't look good.
But this is a bad time to have a shareholders' meeting.
Yes, I'll notify them.
He wants a shareholders' meeting?
He wants to identify the person
responsible for the plummeting of our shares.
Are we really going through this again?
Gang-suk.
There's going to be a shareholders' meeting.
I'd expected that.
Your father's the primary shareholder,
so notify him of the meeting.
And don't get involved.
The other shareholders won't be a calm bunch.
I'll be responsible for my own actions.
They're not looking for an explanation from you.
But I won't back down.
I understand.
I'll prepare the material for your briefing.
No, I'll prepare it myself.
Let Soo-young take care of it.
That's his specialty.
I'll do it.
Then let me know if you need anything.
Yes.
Daeseong Construction.
Director Lee Gang-suk.
You got to hand it to them.
How did they get his name from initials?
They're amazing.
What are the police doing
when this punk's going about killing innocent people?
He needs to pay for ruining other people's lives.
Let me write a comment.
What would you know?
Let me ask you that question.
You should read this story.
Myungseong's son had no choice but to commit suicide.
I feel sorry for him.
Just go and play your video games.
But I'm here to write a report.
Then start writing.
We will.
Let me write a comment first.
Leave.
What's wrong with you?
Don't you care about the world?
I don't, so leave.
Idiots.
I'll explain myself to them later.
How's your brother doing?
He's holding it in.
He hasn't told Dan-ah about those articles in the media.
I hope she doesn't hear about it.
People will lose interest soon enough.
THE TRUTH BEHIND THE "COMPANY HUNTERS"
Hello.
Hey.
What are you doing here?
I came to apologize to the Chancellor and the Dean
on my mother's behalf.
That's unnecessary.
Everyone knows what you're going through right now.
This isn't looking good.
Internet news aside,
even the newspapers are taking the side of Myungseong's son.
You weren't aware of it?
I should've kept my mouth shut.
Gang-suk must've not said anything for your sake.
I had to go.
I know why you went there.
This isn't what I wanted.
What have I done?
I shouldn't have pushed someone to his death.
Don't be too hard on yourself.
I always thought I was right.
And I showed no mercy to those who stood in my way.
The world is a jungle,
where the survival of the fittest is the law.
So I thought I had the right to hunt those weaker than me.
It was the same with Kim Sun-tae.
I thought he deserved to be punished for what he did to us.
But I realized today
that he's someone's precious son and someone's sibling.
So I took on the harassment at the funeral.
Because I deserved it.
I've done a terrible thing.
He wouldn't have died if it weren't for me.
But now you know that the world isn't a jungle.
And you're set on changing your ways.
You're a changed person, so don't be too hard on yourself.
Dan-ah.
What are you doing at school?
Hye-joo, were you aware of the news concerning
Gang-suk on the internet?
I'm the only one who didn't know.
Why didn't you tell me?
I didn't know what Gang-suk was going through.
He didn't tell you for your own sake.
I only found out today as well.
I'm so dull.
When he tried to stop me from using the computer,
I didn't have a clue why.
He'll get through this.
You're right by his side.
Mrs. Lee's not feeling well.
Are you feeling unwell?
How could this happen?
What are you talking about?
I heard from my friend.
Gang-suk might get arrested, won't he?
You housewives do nothing but chat about other people's lives?
Nobody talks about his attempts to kill Gang-suk and Dan-ah.
They do.
People say he was wronged, and had no other choice.
Goodness.
This is so unfair.
That's just the way the world is.
Is Gang-suk going to be prosecuted?
We won't let that happen.
He must be paying for my sins.
I was wrong to teach him to fight against the world.
I shouldn't have taught him to step on the weak without mercy.
You're coming home late again?
You must be tired.
But Mother shouldn't exert herself too much.
Is something wrong at the company?
Yes.
Okay, don't work too hard.
I think something's happened at the company.
Actually, something has.
Do you know what this is about?
There are rumors going around about Gang-suk.
Rumors about Gang-suk?
What do you mean by that?
Welcome home.
What rumors about Gang-suk?
They're nothing but gibberish.
You've heard them too?
Everyone's kept it a secret as not to concern you.
He might face an investigation.
One report said the investigation's begun.
Has he done something bad to that degree?
I wouldn't know.
But it's big news on the internet,
so an investigation is to be expected.
Poor Dan-ah.
How did this happen now that she's happily married?
She's going frantic in the storage room.
Grandmother's in the storage room again?
She's looking for beans tonight.
I think she's been forgetting to take her medicine.
You should make sure she takes it.
I do, but she must be spitting it out later.
That's not good.
Why are you out here?
I was waiting for you.
You didn't have to.
But I'm glad my wife was waiting for me to come home.
Did you have dinner?
Yes.
I did something nice today.
Do you remember my doctor friend?
I told him that Grandmother forgets to take her medicine.
And he brought this to my workplace.
Aren't I popular?
Even a doctor runs my errands.
You should be proud of me.
Take this to Grandmother tomorrow.
You had the time to worry about her?
Of course.
She's a precious person to you.
Don't cry on me now.
Don't do that anymore.
You mean making a doctor my gopher?
He doesn't mind.
He was a sissy back in college,
but I showed him how to have a good time.
I thought we weren't going to keep secrets.
Why do I have to hear from someone else
about what you're going through?
You were just going to bear it alone?
Did you mean to make a fool out of me?
So you've found out.
I was hoping you wouldn't find out for at least a few days.
It's so cruel of you to keep secrets from me.
I'm sorry.
I won't ever do that to you again.
Mother's bedridden.
And Father's been drinking.
Go console them.
I'm home.
Are you all right?
Of course I am.
You must be so frustrated.
I'm not, Mother.
Gang-suk.
Yes.
Parents shouldn't be a burden to their children,
but that's what I am to you.
Father. Don't say that.
I know you wanted to study astrology.
That was just a phase.
I remember you asking me after a fight with some kids.
Father, can I just study astrology?
I just want to focus on studying.
I thought it was romantic, that's all.
Then I shot back at you.
A man's got to have bigger dreams!
You're Lee Chun-gab's son,so live up to his name.
His son's got to bare his fangs and fight against the world.
I wanted everything because I grew up without anything.
So I used you, my son, as a whip.
I swung you with vengeance at the world.
You're going through this humiliation because of me.
Father.
I'm not humiliated.
I wouldn't have done anything that I didn't want to.
I did what I wanted to,
and used being your ideal son as an excuse.
My tendency was to take things by force.
And that's why the world is pointing its fingers at me.
If it weren't for Dan-ah,
I'd be laughing off what they had to say about me.
But I'm different now.
I'll take responsibility for what I've done wrong.
Gang-suk.
But Father, I feel better than ever.
After I admitted my faults, I'm actually happier.
If I weren't your father, you wouldn't have had faults.
But I'd choose to be your son even in the next life.
But don't ask me to fight against the world again.
Even if I were a scrap-collector in the next life,
I'd never make you do that again.
I'd tell you to be nice to everyone.
I won't set you on the wrong path again.
I'm looking forward to it.
You should.
In our next lives, I'll be a much better father.
You wanted to study astrology?
You didn't tell me that.
You'd have just laughed at me.
I wouldn't have.
You're just a sissy of a man.
The astrologers would whip you if they heard that.
To be honest, it was because of Alphonse Daudet's novel.
I actually wanted to be a shepherd.
The lying shepherd who got eaten by the wolf?
You have a twisted sense of humor.
You must've been into literature.
You've read Nietzsche.
I thought guys had a bad memory.
I'll have you know I'm really smart.
And don't you get started on novels, movies, and the poems.
I remember everything by heart.
I didn't mean to make you brag again.
You really brag every chance you get.
That's an amazing talent.
I was stressed out all day,
but I kept reminding myself to be responsible for my actions.
And that I had a wife waiting for me.
She'll cheer me up when I get home.
I'll always greet you with a cheerful face.
I'll keep reminding myself
that I need to find a lot of ways to make my man laugh.
What if I become a comedienne?
You have such a good sense of humor.
The future looks bright for me.
What will you be when you grow up?
A comedienne.
I asked for a retraction, but the media favors the dead person.
I'll try my best to get the truth out.
Please don't worry, Brother.
Keep this in mind, though.
You should never demean a dead person.
We need to be respectful of human life.
Now's not the time to talk about respect.
Then when's a proper time?
People always say, Now's not the time.
They claim respect should be put aside sometimes.
But that's nonsense.
You need to be respectful at all times,
even when you're treated unfairly.
But...
Tae-young.
Listen to Grandfather.
Don't lose respect and manners even in the worst situations.
Demeaning another person for your own sake is pathetic.
In due time, people will recognize your sincerity,
and why you remained steadfast in your place.
We'll keep that in mind, Father.
Go to sleep.
I'm training.
Training for what?
Listen to this.
Two guys were talking.
One of them said,
I'm going to Southeast Asia for my 20th wedding anniversary.
So the other guy says, You must be rich.
Your wife must be proud of you.
What are you planning to do for your 30th anniversary?
Guess what he said.
What?
The other guy responds,
I'll bring her back if she's still alive.
That's junk.
Watch me become a comedienne.
Good luck.
And I'm reminding myself.
About what?
If you try to take me somewhere far for our anniversary,
I'm not moving an inch.
I have to work.
Then work.
I can't work with you joking around.
But you asked me what I was doing.
I can't just ignore you when you're studying so hard for me.
I'll get some fruit.
No need.
How about we train our bodies?
Please focus on work. I'll bring you a snack.
I shouldn't have married such a beautiful girl.
I can't concentrate on work at all.
I figured you were up.
Yes.
I brought some fruit.
Were you writing a report?
No.
I heard you typing on the keyboard.
I was replying to articles about Gang-suk.
Have you done that before?
I've never done this before.
But I had to do something.
Thank you for doing that for us.
It's nice to hear you say "us."
That's the most beautiful word there is.
You have a message.
Did you just write that reply, Hye-joo?
Is this Hyun-gyu?
That's so amazing.
Look at us writing replies to the same article
on the same website at the same time.
I just told Dan-ah that "us" is the most beautiful word there is.
I think we were meant to be "us."
I'm sorry, I must've fallen asleep.
I was trying to stay awake until you finished.
It's nice to work listening to you breathe.
I'm sure you were just ticked off from me breathing loudly.
I thought about our baby we'd have sleeping by us.
That gave me some peace of mind.
I'll see to it so you won't worry about me,
and make you try so hard to make me laugh anymore.
Time will pass, but my sense of humor won't rust.
So you have to laugh, okay?
Even if you think I'm not funny anymore.
Then I'll have to work on my acting skills again.
It's so hard to be nice to you.
About the Silver Town.
Yes.
I want to donate it to the public.
Won't that quiet the rumors about you somewhat?
And I learned my lesson too.
Life isn't just about holding onto wealth.
And it's wealth I gathered from hurting others.
So I'll make a donation as redemption.
Then make it anonymously.
Then it won't do you any good.
Otherwise, it's just bargaining.
But...
If we want to be different, then we have to be sincere.
I know you want to help me,
but announcing donations for situation's sake isn't right.
I got it, Son.
I guess I still have a bit of greed left in me.
If I want to be different, then I have to go all the way.
We should make that our family motto.
That sounds fancy.
It sure does.
I'm sorry I caused a lot of trouble for the company.
Please don't say such a thing.
I heard about reservations being canceled
and our stocks plummeting.
Things will settle down.
So...
I'd like to hand over my shares to you at this meeting.
Mr. Lee.
Please use them accordingly for the employees.
That's the only way I can redeem myself to the company.
That'll encourage the employees,
and bring peace amongst the other shareholders.
We've become kindred spirits after our families were bound.
I had the same idea myself.
Don't, Mr. Chairman.
We have enough money aside from the shares and the Silver Town,
and we have more shares under Gang-suk's name.
I admire your generosity,
but you should think about your children.
They've worked so hard for the company.
You should pass on your shares to your children.
I'm sure they'll be on the same page as me.
Grandma.
You just have to use this patch every day.
It has the same potency as pills.
How convenient.
She'll have an easier time with those.
Welcome home, Grandfather.
What brings you here?
She brought some medicinal patches for Grandma.
Are there such things?
Yes.
How nice of him in the midst of his troubles.
Dan-ah.
Yes, Grandfather?
You must be hurting.
I'm not.
You bear your pain on the inside, and I know it hurts.
But Dan-ah.
Yes.
I know I'm worried for nothing,
but let me say this.
Always be cheerful with him.
I'm just saying this because you're very reserved.
Grandfather.
Yes.
I'm not such a reserved girl around him.
You'd be surprised to see how much I chat and laugh with him.
He even said I could become a comedienne.
I'll wish you luck on the interview then.
Thank you, Grandfather.
Family Motto.
If you want to be different, go all the way.
Isn't this fancy?
Looks really expensive.
Tell me it's fancy.
It's really fancy.
What's a family motto when Gang-suk's in trouble?
Nothing bad's going to happen.
Let's be optimistic.
But Uncle, what does that mean?
It means exactly what it says.
Even psychopaths are considered different.
Don't say such crazy things.
What if Gang-suk's kids skip school just to be different?
Please do me a favor. Go home.
I just figured out why I have such a good sense of humor.
It's hereditary.
I told Grandfather how much I make you laugh,
and how you suggested I become a comedienne.
Then he wished me luck on my interview.
I've known his sense of humor for a while now,
but you just figured it out today.
You're so dull.
How did you know?
When I played baduk with him to set our wedding date,
I didn't really win that match.
Then what happened?
I begged him on my knees.
I pleaded with him to have mercy on me.
And I kept begging.
Then he said this to me.
What did he say?
For free?
There's a saying,
Teach a man how to fish, and he will eat for a lifetime.
I don't know if I've made you great fishermen,
but I tried my best.
So let me tell you this.
I have no intention of giving you an inheritance.
Brother.
The shares I've given to Suk-ho are a reward
for his work at the company for the past thirty years.
And his grandfather also gave me his permission.
Although I'm aware of your hard work for the company,
I'll treat you no differently from other employees.
If you continue to keep up your good work,
you may receive shares as any other employee would.
But no more than that.
What about your shares?
My shares, along with Chairman Lee's shares,
will be distributed to our employees.
Brother, that's very generous of you,
but you should consider your grandchildren more.
Even smaller companies keep the shares in the family.
Can't you think of how disappointed they would be?
Are you disappointed?
No, Grandfather.
We're fine with your decision.
I can't say I'm not disappointed...
But I meant to say I'd catch my own fish.
You didn't let me finish.
I'm on the same page as Soo-young.
Dong-dong.
Yes?
If I'm not giving anything to your dad,
then I'm not giving anything to you.
What do you think about that?
Shares?
Yes.
That's not what I want.
Then what do you want?
Can I have $3 a month allowance?
I'll settle for that.
How modest of you.
But I wouldn't mind $5 a month.
I'm so proud of my daughters-in-law.
I'm sure it wasn't a big surprise to our sons,
but our daughters-in-law didn't seem disappointed at all.
I was disappointed just a bit.
Were you?
Of course I was.
I'd hoped you'd get some money I could fall back on.
I'll work myself to the bone and treat you like queen.
So worry not, my lady.
What's with your speech?
This is Suk-ho in servant version.
My servant, go sweep the courtyard.
Yes!
How can I live on $10 a day?
You won't have any inheritance,
so we'll have to cut back.
This is for our retirement and Dong-dong's future marriage.
Why should we save up money for Dong-dong?
Is our neighbor paying for his wedding then?
I wasn't given any inheritance,
so he shouldn't get any.
Did you pay for your wedding?
Traditional wedding ceremonies are cheap.
We're living with our parents.
That just happened somehow.
Whatever.
I'll save up money for Dong-dong's sake.
Dad, Mom.
Grandfather gave me $10 for this month.
Lucky Dong-dong.
I'll buy Ji-woo spicy rice cakes.
You'll win her over with food?
Jo-man said that's a way to win her sympathy.
That's just great.
Even Dong-dong got $10.
Can I have a little bit more?
That's $10 a day for you.
How can you spend $10 a day?
I know.
I'll fill up on spicy rice cakes.
I need to save up for Dong-dong to study abroad.
Are you sure about that? I'm not very smart.
See, he doesn't want to go.
Just $5 more.
You're really not disappointed?
If I cared about money, I wouldn't have married you.
Then what?
I could've married a rich man, given my good looks.
I would've married Bill Gates.
Thank you for not making Bill Gates my rival.
It was a hard decision, but Bill Gates wasn't a firstborn.
If I had married him,
then I couldn't have become the head housewife.
I don't think that was the reason.
He's already married.
Right, I forgot about that.
Bill Gates's wife sure got a lucky break.
You'd give her a run for her money.
Hey.
Yes.
We sound so silly right now.
I wasn't like this before I got married.
I don't know what to do with myself anymore.
I'll be late again today.
What about dinner?
I can make do with a couple of sandwiches.
But you need to eat well.
What?
You sound like a grandmother.
Have a nice day, Grandpa.
Gross.
How dare you.
I can see how you'll treat me when we're old.
Grandma, I'll be nice to you.
So how about we hit the sheets?
You're so deprived.
Dan-ah.
Jin-ah.
What brings you here?
I brought dinner since Gang-suk's working late.
I brought dinner for the three of them.
So did I.
What do we do with all this food?
It feels like a family picnic.
We brought a lot of food, but it's nothing for Tae-young.
Where are you going?
Whatever!
Where the heck are you?
I'm going on patrol.
Do your job.
I just said I'm going on patrol.
Not that job. Your job as a housewife.
Jin-ah and Dan-ah brought their husbands' meals.
Do you want me to bum food off of them?
Then just ask them to share their food.
What do I have a wife for?
That's enough, and goodbye.
How dare you hang up on your husband.
But at least she doesn't punch you anymore.
Stop eavesdropping on me.
I came to get you for dinner.
I'm not hungry.
You don't want to miss out on Dan-ah's cooking.
Come on.
What's wrong with you?
Life is painful.
Is something wrong between you and Jo-man?
Mal-soon, do you know...
Go on.
...the pain of a man who loved an angel?
An angel?
Are you calling Jo-man an angel?
Jo-man is an angel in disguise.
You married a mere human, so you wouldn't know.
I've heard of being crazy in love, but you're insane.
She won't marry me for her grandmother's sake.
She's an angel.
This bean paste soup smells.
You still have morning sickness?
I have to be consistent.
This is okay.
You're going to keep it up until Mal-soon's due?
I suppose.
Poor Mal-soon.
The only reason I look old is because I had to pamper you.
What are you talking about?
You don't look old at all.
You might even look younger than Jin-ah.
Gross.
I can't agree with you.
Dan-ah doesn't look younger than my wife.
But she does.
Stop grossing me out.
I'm so beat.
I'm sure you are.
Please don't pick a fight when I'm tired.
A bum who begs for food wouldn't pick a fight with you.
I got nicked.
What happened?
I was on patrol.
I had to break up a fight.
Why do you always come home bruised?
Be nice then.
I will, so come home safe.
The shareholders' meeting went rather well.
I think we have their understanding.
I'm sorry we caused you such trouble.
What great grandsons you have.
They gave up their inheritance
and followed your wishes without complaint.
You must be very proud of them.
I think they are my blessings.
I'll say this again.
But you really married well.
Do you regret objecting to my marriage?
Don't bring up the past.
How many times did you slap me?
Stop bringing up ancient stories.
Come in.
It's the police.
What extension?
Number one.
Lee Gang-suk speaking.
Yes, I'll be there tomorrow.
What is that about?
They need me for the investigation.
What brings you here?
I won't be coming in for about three days.
Why?
The police are conducting an investigation.
I had hoped it wouldn't come down to this.
I can't say for sure, but please prepare for the worst.
I'm sure that won't happen.
I'm sorry to cause you concern.
I'm saying this just in case, but if you've broken the law,
then take responsibility for your actions.
I will.
If you have bloodstains on your hands,
then wash them clean.
Only then can you have a fresh start.
Yes.
I'll tell them as honestly as I can.
Please don't worry about me.
Can I come with you?
Father.
I'm the one who planned everything.
It's me who should take responsibility.
I'll tell them you're clean.
But I'm the one who carried out the plans.
I won't let you bear the brunt of this.
Father, I'm a strong person.
I can take on everything that comes my way.
He'll come through, Mother.
I really had no idea.
I really didn't know we were doing a bad thing.
I didn't know it was to the degree...
...that my son would have to be interrogated...
They'll just ask him some questions.
He's not being prosecuted or anything.
It's all because we're not educated.
We just thought money was everything.
We chased after money,
and forced Gang-suk to do things he didn't want to.
We ruined his life.
You didn't.
He may have made some mistakes,
but his life isn't ruined.
He still has the heart to admit his faults in the past.
I feel so bad for Gang-suk.
You weren't asleep?
I'll get you some jasmine tea.
It'll help you sleep.
Don't bother.
You need to be rested for tomorrow.
I'll be fine.
I told you.
I'm actually relieved.
I was an arrogant fool.
I thought I was above the law.
If I did anything wrong, it was considering myself
above the law that everyone worked so hard to protect.
If I'd known you'd come into my life,
then I wouldn't have lived the way I did.
Get a good night's sleep.
Don't have any dreams,
and rest well until tomorrow.
I will.
Take care.
Don't worry too much about me.
Okay.
I'll be back.
Okay.
Come back inside.
I'll come in shortly.
It's past ten.
He must not be coming home tonight.
Go on inside.
I'll wait just a little longer.
Can you tell me about the money you lent to
Kim Sun-tae for his gambling?
What's this company Money Plan
that closed five months ago?
It's a financial company I established.
Then why did you have a proxy running the business?
I was in Korea,
so I couldn't be in charge of management.
I found a local financier
and entered into a partnership with him.
Subtitles by K B F D
I hope tonight's the last night we spend apart.
I don't know whether I'll be charged or not,
but I know what I've done wrong.
I wouldn't have known remorse without you.
